County council approves funding for Ind. 37 project By Sadie Hunter “ bPSXT/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ At its March 2 meeting, the Hamilton Co. Council unanimously voted for a ROADS $16.5 million funding resolution and interlocal agreement that solidifies a long-in-the-works plan to rework Ind. 37 through Fishers and Noblesville. Both cities and all three Hamilton Co. commissioners have long showed support for the overhaul of Ind. 37 to get rid of all stoplights from 126th Street in Fishers north to the Ind. 38/32 junction in Noblesville, replacing each intersection with a roundabout that would connect cross streets over Ind. 37, similar to the Keystone Parkway improvements. But now, the two cities, county and state say they are ready to work together to build what they say is a solution for current and future traffic and road issues with the highway. “This has been a long time coming, and a lot of work, a lot of collaboration between the City of Fishers, City of Noblesville, Hamilton Co., our council and Gov. Pence and INDOT,� said Hamilton Co. Commissioner Mark Heirbrandt. “This is going to change the east side of Hamilton Co.� “We’re excited about moving this project forward,� Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said. “The county commissioners, myself and Noblesville, we’ve been working on this for really two or three years now, and to get it done, and done in a way that I think is very professional, it can really move the entire county forward.� “I’m really excited. This thing has been a team effort from the start, and it is exciting. It’s something that you just don’t see very often,� Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear said. “It is essential to have Noblesville, Fishers, Hamilton Co. and the State of Indiana working together to construct a new north-south corridor that addresses a major traffic concern of our growing community.� In the SR 37 Mobility Study summary of project costs, the cost for all nine intersections and the Allisonville Road/146th Street interchange to be revamped is estimated at just shy of $347.5 million. On Dec. 10, the state and governor’s office officially stepped in, vowing to put forth $100 million for the project’s first phase in Fishers – five intersections at 126th, 131st, 135th, 141st and 146th – by July 2018. The second phase will be the remaining four intersections that lay within Noblesville’s city limits – Greenfield Avenue, Town and Country Boulevard, Pleasant Street and Ind. 38/32. With the approval, Noblesville, Fishers and Hamilton Co. will all put forth $16.5 million total. Proponents of the project reiterated during the public hearing that local control and oversight of the project was a huge plus. However,

resolution was approved by the council, who agreed, as part of the plan, to offer up to 50 percent of the funds needed for the effort, not to exceed $250,000 in total. Heirbrandt said it could be up to two years before any ground is broken. There’s a lot of work that has to be done. There’s a lot of meetings that we’re going to have with the public,� he said. “We’re going to probably break (the meetings) down into intersections and have public meetings to get input from everybody and go over the design and try to understand how each business works and what we can do to try and help them during the construction. This is unprecedented in how this is being done.� Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness addresses the council. ?W^c^ Qh BPSXT 7d]cTa
some, speaking as members of the 37 Business Alliance, said they were concerned about how the project would negatively affect the businesses along the highway, citing access issues with the U.S. 31 project through Westfield, later prompting County Councilor Fred Glynn to propose a resolution that would serve as a marketing plan for businesses along the corridor. Glynn said the plan would help the City of Fishers create outreach initiatives to both residents and business owners in the area. The

Lawrence police get new tool to combat heroin overdoses ]Tfb/VTXbcRdaaT]c R^\ Thanks to a 2016 Drug Free Communities Grant from the Drug PUBLIC SAFETY Free Marion Co. initiative, Lawrence Police Dept. officers will receive a new tool to help combat heroin use and overdoses. The Lawrence Police Dept. was awarded a nearly $5,000 grant in late December 2015 that will provide Narcan kits for more than 80 full-time and reserve officers. The kits contain naloxone, a prescription drug that reverses an opioid overdose. Opioids, including heroin, oxyxodone, hydrocodone, codeine and methadone, can slow or stop a person’s breathing during an overdose and lead to death. Naloxone assists with keeping overdose victims awake and breathing. All Lawrence officers will be equipped with a Narcan kit and will have completed training on how to use the kits by mid-March, allowing first responding officers to administer Narcan in an effort to reduce the life-threatening results of heroin and opiate-related overdoses

in the community. “As a police department, we understand the life-saving need for these kits and the positive impact they provide to help address the heroin and opiate-related overdose problem the state of Indiana faces,” stated Lawrence Deputy Chief Curtis Bigsbee, who’s efforts helped win the grant funds for the department.

HSE to present musical â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Chessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; By Mark Ambrogi Â&#x201C; \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chessâ&#x20AC;? is not on the typical list of high school musicals. PERFORMANCE â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this is the first time, at least in this area, that this version of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Chessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; has ever been done,â&#x20AC;? said Ethan Mathias, a Hamilton Southeastern High School teacher who serves as the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s musical co-director. Mathias said the show was chosen by the co-directors because it fits the skills of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talent pool at HSEHS. The musical is set during the Cold War with music created by Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus, formerly of ABBA, and lyrics by Tim Rice (â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Lion Kingâ&#x20AC;?). The performances will be at 7 p.m. March 10-12 in the high schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Leonard Auditorium. Senior Lauren Boswell plays Florence, a Hungarian-American. Her family moved from Hungary after their county was invaded by the Soviets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She is a second (assistant) for an American chess player, but she kind of falls over to the dark side and falls in love with a Russian chess player,â&#x20AC;? Boswell said. The musical is loosely based on the rivalry between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The vocal parts of the role are challenging for me, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting to test my limits,â&#x20AC;? Boswell said. Senior Josh Diggs plays Anatoly, a Russian chess player. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my first actual lead role in an HSE drama production,â&#x20AC;? Diggs said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hard,

but it was interesting to step up. There are more songs to memorize.â&#x20AC;? Diggs knew this was the role he wanted heading into auditions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As soon as I saw the concert version on YouTube, I decided that was who I wanted to be,â&#x20AC;? Diggs said. Senior Sam Adams performs as Freddie, an American chess player. Adams played Emmett, one of the lead roles in the school musical â&#x20AC;&#x153;Legally Blondeâ&#x20AC;? as a junior. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This role is challenging just because last year I had to expand my range to hit some of the notes for Emmett,â&#x20AC;? Adams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had to expand it even more, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been even harder than it was last year. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just trying to condition my voice not to give out midway through rehearsals.â&#x20AC;? Mathiasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fellow co-directors are his wife Devan, who handles the choreography, and Mary Armstrong, who heads the stage crew.

By Sam Elliott Â&#x201C; bP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Dozens of pieces of art by Fishers and Geist area high school and junior high stuCOVER STORY dents were among the hundreds on display throughout February at Butler Universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Clowes Memorial Hall as part of the Central and Southern Indiana Regional Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. Three levels of award winners â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Gold Key, Silver Key and honorable mention recipients â&#x20AC;&#x201D; were recognized at an awards ceremony Feb. 28. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After reviewing more than 3,000 works of art, this is the culminating ceremony and celebration to honor our creative artists and writers,â&#x20AC;? Donna Rund, interim education manager at Clowes Memorial Hall, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very excited to see these students in attendance, along with their parents, teachers and peers to honor their accomplishments.â&#x20AC;? Of the regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 176 total Gold Keys â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the highest level of achievement â&#x20AC;&#x201D; awarded, more than 50 were to Fishers and Geist area high school and junior high students. Gold Key art is determined by criteria of originality, technical skill and personal vision or voice and is forwarded on to New York City for the Scholastic Art & Writing national awards. National Medal winners will be announced March 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Honorable mentions are given to those demonstrating creative potential, Silver Key awards are given to those who are most distinguished and Gold Key awards are given to those most accomplished in their work,â&#x20AC;? Rund said. Gold Key and Silver Key art, which included approximately 430 total works, was displayed for the public at Clowes Memorial Hall from Feb. 3 through 28. All Scholastic Art & Writing Awards entries, of which the region received more than 3,000 of this year, were adjudicated by three-judge panels with approximately 50 professional artists and writers comprising the panels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really wonderful for the kids,â&#x20AC;? Hamilton Southeastern High School art teacher Angela Fritz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a testament to how hard they work all year and where theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going and their focus and their drive. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really a wonderful opportunity for them to get out in a public way and in a national way for some of them.â&#x20AC;? Fritz had some of her work displayed at the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards exhibition when she was a high school student and appreciates the history of the program, which has famous alumni including Andy Warhol, Truman Capote, Robert Redford, John Lithgow and Ken Burns, among others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has been going on since the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;20s, it has a long-

standing history,â&#x20AC;? Fritz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Truman Capote, Ken Burns â&#x20AC;&#x201D; all kinds of really public and famous artists have won in the past â&#x20AC;Ś This is something that has a great regional history here in this state, too, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a great opportunity for the kids here and at the national level. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really wonderful.â&#x20AC;? For more, visit artandwriting.org.

Twins Panel recap
FROM THE BACKSHOP
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Buffett shows his brilliance Warren Buffett, billionaire extraordinaire? There is no refuting his financial status. We marvel at his wealth, and we realize weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never be in the same rarified air as he. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s OK. A news item barely surfaced last week about the Oracle of Omaha (or, Democrat from Nebraska), and the mainstream media let it pass without comment, which is why we know heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a Democrat. If he were a Republican, especially one named Trump, it would have been open season. His mobile-home business foreclosed on more than 8,000 customers in 2015. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably the real â&#x20AC;&#x153;warm and fuzzyâ&#x20AC;? Uncle Warren in action. If he embraces the Democrats, as he has Hillary Rodham Clinton, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s akin to sleeping with the devil and it calls off the dogs. The mainstreamers wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give this the ferocity of reporting that a Republican would generate. Think for a moment what would be reported if a Donald Trump-owned mobile home business had done the same, or one owned by the conservative Koch brothers, for that matter. Meanwhile, nary a peep out of Clinton. So, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a brilliant move on Buffettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part. Is this a great nation, or what? Â&#x201C; Â&#x201C; Â&#x201C; Lines of the week: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you tuned into ABCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This Weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the morning after Trumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tremendous victory in South Carolina, you found George Stephanopoulos promising analysis from a â&#x20AC;&#x153;powerhouse roundtable,â&#x20AC;? by which I assume he was referring to the table itself.â&#x20AC;? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s syndicated columnist Ann Coulter. And this from one of our own, with whom we were talking politics and which losers the establishment is backing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t control winners; you can only control losers.â&#x20AC;?

Courage on reserve Commentary by Terry Anker The ancient Greeks believed it to be one of the four cardinal virtues. Courage â&#x20AC;&#x201C; defined as the willingness to intentionally put oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s self into a circumstance that brings great fear, anxiety or reprehension. We honor our heroes for their exceptional fortitude and admire those with the ability to overcome dread with an eye toward the greater good. It appears every day, in ordinary ways. A toddler learning to take those first tentative steps exhibits their own nascent bravery. A teenager, making the right choice in the face of daunting peer-pressure, has it. The elderly man facing his own mortality with confident reserve certainly shows it. All around are moments of personal challenge, and then, ones of personal triumphs. Hamilton Co. Firefighters 4416 and Carmel Firefighters Local 4444 are working to place a memorial on the Court House square in Noblesville to honor those who have lost their lives in serving all of us â&#x20AC;&#x201C; reach out to
Tony Murry (HC) or Sean Sutton (Carmel) to help. While this particular effort is in Hamilton Co., these men and women put themselves in harmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way, on our behalf, when called â&#x20AC;&#x201C; anywhere. To overcome real and apparent fear and enter a burning building to the benefit of a stranger, assuredly meets the standard set by the ancients of courage. In remembering this sacrifice and honoring those who have shown such fortitude in the face of adversity inspires us all to find the courage within each of us. One is reminded that the cowardly lion learned that he had it all along if only heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d used it. Do we all have a â&#x20AC;&#x153;reserveâ&#x20AC;? of courage somewhere deep inside that, if tapped, can help us find the strength to overcome the bondage of our own fear?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK Retirement may be looked upon as a prolonged-holiday or as a rejection, a being thrown on the scrap heap. ° BX\^]T ST 1TPe^Xa
I had the pleasure of participating in a Twins Panel a while back, both as a twin myself and as a mother of HUMOR twins. So I thought Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d share my responses with you, my adoring fan base. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Cause who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wanted to know more about me? 1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Working full-time, do you ever miss your kids?â&#x20AC;? No. Nor have I ever. Even when I went back eight weeks postpartum after my first born. I do experience guilt, almost on a daily basis, and I occasionally have emotional breakdowns in my car over whether or not Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a horrible mom for wanting to spend eight to 10 hours away from short people, but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t honestly say I ever really miss my kids. Bottom line? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a better mom when I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to focus all of my attention on nutritional lunches, laundry apartheid and choosing which day weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to contract pink eye from the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Museum. 2. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With four kids, how do you balance all the activities and still have time for family?â&#x20AC;? We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really. We try our best, but honestly we rarely eat a meal together. With kids in all age groups and at levels where multiple practices/competitions a week are the norm, we are chalking up serious mileage. But studies show that busy, engaged kids are less likely to end up meth addicts or knocked up, so weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sticking with the crazy. 3. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you ever get to spend one-on-one time with your children?â&#x20AC;? Sometimes, yes. But generally, no. The car usually provides the best opportunity for individual time these days, though with a teenage driver helping out, the moments are becoming less common. And, if Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not already asleep at my 8:30 p.m., I will occasionally crawl in bed with a kid and chat about his or her day. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not super proud of this lack of parental attention, but no one needs therapy yet, so they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be suffering too badly. There you have it. Enough â&#x20AC;&#x153;Danielle Wilsonâ&#x20AC;? fodder for you to make it through the week, whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re criticizing or commiserating. Peace out! Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentincarmel.com.

Great Indiana Songbook celebrates Hoosiersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; music contributions By Mark Ambrogi Â&#x201C; \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ The Great American Songbook Foundation is doing its part to celebrate Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 200th year as a state. HISTORY The Great Indiana Songbook: Two Centuries of Hoosier Music free exhibit will be on display on the gallery level of the Palladium in Carmel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the Bicentennial connection, I think this is going to have a broader appeal than some of our other exhibits,â&#x20AC;? said Chris Lewis, director of programs for The Great American Songbook Foundation. The exhibit, which opened Feb. 15 and runs through January, features Indiana music legends from Cole Porter to Jackson 5 to John Mellencamp to Axl Rose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our official definition for the Songbook is music that will last beyond the time it was written,â&#x20AC;? Lewis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For our preservation efforts, we focus on the Golden Age and we do focus on the standards. But weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re celebrating American music and Indiana has one of the richest legacies of any state I know. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty remarkable when you think about it.â&#x20AC;? Lewis said the typical Great American Songbook audience clearly identifies with Hoagy Carmichael and Cole Porter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the Gaithers have written more standards and more songs that are in hymn books and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re from Anderson,â&#x20AC;? Lewis said. The Gaither Vocal Band, featuring Bill Gaither, will make its first appearance at the Palladium at 3 p.m. June 12 as part of the Bicentennial series. Included in the exhibit is Steve Wariner, a Grammy-winning country singer from Noblesville. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He sent us several artifacts,â&#x20AC;? Lewis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have handwritten lyrics from him and costumes.â&#x20AC;? The Wright Brothers are featured in the display. Tim Wright lives in Carmel and brother Tom in Fishers. The exhibit points out that Albert Von Tilzer who co-wrote â&#x20AC;&#x153;Take Me Out to the Ball Gameâ&#x20AC;? is from Indianapolis. Some Indiana rising stars displayed are Josh Kaufman, winner of â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Voiceâ&#x20AC;? in 2014, and Jon McLaughlin. Lebanonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lucas Debard,

the 2015 Great American Songbook Youth Ambassador Award winner, is featured. Debard, an Indiana University student, made his Carnegie Hall debut in February. An inactive display allows visitors to view music from different Indiana artists. Lewis said a new program called Perfect Harmony, a partnership with the Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Association Greater Indiana Chapter will be involved. Regularly scheduled group programs are available for those individuals with earlystage Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and their caregivers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a music therapy program,â&#x20AC;? Lewis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We bring them in here and show them the exhibit. We use the interactive display. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll
have bingo and things that use the brain.â&#x20AC;? Lewis said they are also in the process of doing an outreach project with assisted living homes. Lisa Lobdell, archivist for the foundation, said there are about 20 Indiana artists on the interactive display. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people are surprised when they come through, saying I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know this person came from Indiana,â&#x20AC;? Lobdell said. There is also another TV screen where documentaries or movies can be shown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had people literally sit and watch a movie and then pull a chair around and watch the screen,â&#x20AC;? Lewis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can spend as much or as little time as you want. There are 50 artists represented.â&#x20AC;?
INFO BOX Exhibit hours: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday in the gallery. The exhibit is open before the Songbook and Jazz Series shows. It also will be open before some of the Bicentennial shows. The gallery elevator is in the west lobby by the box office. For more: songbook.org

According to legend, King Louis XV invented French onion soup when one day all that was left in the pantry were onions, butter and champagne.

Serves: 5 to 6 Ingredients: 1 tablespoon butter, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 5 large yellow onions, thinly sliced, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, 2 quarts beef bouillon (for a vegetarian version, use vegetable stock), 1 cup full body wine (burgundy or merlot), 1 bay leaf, 1/2 teaspoon sage, Salt and pepper to taste, French bread, 1 tablespoon cognac, Croutons, Swiss and gruyere cheese, 2 ounce piece each, grated Directions: In a large pot heated to medium/high, add oil, butter (1 tablespoon) and onions; cook stirring occasionally until onions look translucent, about 20min.

Zionsville Half Marathon & 5K
Blending the self-help nature of websites like WebMD and the connecRESOURCE tivity of sites like Facebook, one Fishers doctor has developed a first-of-its kind, one-stop shop of a social network designed for urology patients. Dr. David Hall, part of the Urology Associates of East Central Indiana practicing Hall both at St. Vincent Fishers and in New Castle, first began blogging about urology issues after finishing his residency three and a half years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With a lot of urology conditions, no one really knows a lot about them unless youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been through it,â&#x20AC;? Hall said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the problem was people would go online and find a whole bunch of crazy stuff, so I started blogging and if a patient asked a question about a topic Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d go home and write a blog about it â&#x20AC;Ś more or less just to get people more aware of the urology issues and make it more accepted to speak about them openly and just kind of break down the taboo barriers.â&#x20AC;? After about a year of blogging, Hall began finding that most patients diagnosed with prostate or kidney cancers or needing a related surgery didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have friends or family in their lives who had been through similar situations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought if we could build a way for these people to connect with each other across the country, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to help alleviate a lot of their anxiety around things like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hey how do you really feel day two after a prostate surgery?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the biggest long-term complication after radiation for your pros-

Hall said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can say it dries your mouth out, but a patient whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been through that can probably describe it a lot better than I can. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how this idea launched and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve tweaked it a little bit and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still not what I want it to look like. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re testing it and we have users in four countries and the feedback has been excellent.â&#x20AC;? The My Urology Doc social network, assessable at myurologydoctor.com, features ongoing discussions between approximately 500 users related to topics including prostate, kidney, bladder and testicular cancer, kidney stones, urinary tract infections and many other urology related topics and information. As the site continues to grow, Hall hopes to add a dedicated software staff to add additional features, like a mobile app for smart phones, for example. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The overall goal is going to be a suite of tools and applications to really be â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a patient, a urologist or family doc or hospital system â&#x20AC;&#x201D; kind of the go-to resource for all things urology,â&#x20AC;?

Beet juice for brain power â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Recent studies have shown that drinking beet juice has some amazing and rapid health benefits. Just one glass of the juice can improve cognitive function within 90 minutes of drinking it. Beet juice dilates the blood vessels and therefore increases the oxygen rate to the brain. It can also boost workout stamina, improve digestion and encourage cardiovascular health. B^daRT) ]PcdaP[^] R^\

By Sam Elliott Â&#x201C; bP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ A former pharmaceutical sales executive and a former social NEW BUSINESS worker and teacher have brought Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Junk King franchise to Fishers. Julius and Jacqueline McQueen opened their Junk King location earlier this year at 9840 North by Northeast Blvd. and offer junk removal services for anything and everything throughout the Indianapolis area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nothingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too small and nothingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too big,â&#x20AC;? Jacqueline said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything and anything goes. We get requests for baby grand pianos and hot tubs and we can even take cars or trailers if we get that requestâ&#x20AC;Ś Anything â&#x20AC;&#x201D; boxes, TVs, refrigerators â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not only from just houses, but also corporations.â&#x20AC;? Junk King will haul away yard waste, too, and hazardous materials are the only things they wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take, Julius said. The McQueensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; big red Junk King truck has 18 cubic feet of storage â&#x20AC;&#x201D; large enough to haul roughly six pickup truck loads of junk. Their goal is to add a second truck by the end of the year and expand the fleet to as many as five trucks in the next three to four years. And once Junk King leaves a job with a truckload of junk, it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t all automatically taken to a landfill. The company recycles or refur-

bishes what it can to donate to local charities and service organizations like the Salvation Army, Goodwill and the Julian Center. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is one of the distinguishing points between us and some of our competitors,â&#x20AC;? Julius said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sixty percent of what we collect we donate and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to some very good causes.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was a caseworker, so Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m always in the mood to help people and to help give things away,â&#x20AC;? Jacqueline added. The McQueensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is the 75th franchise location for Junk King, which was founded in and is based out of San Carlos, Calif.

Entry Pyramid at Louvre Museum ?W^c^ Qh 3^] :]TQT[
The Louvreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Satanic pyramid? Commentary by Don Knebel The Louvre Museum in Paris occupies more than 650,000 square feet, has 403 rooms and exhibits more than 38,000 items. TRAVEL But some of the 10 million visitors each year are more interested in the number of glass panes in its entry pyramid. The Louvre, a former fortress, was renovated in 1546 as a residence of King Francis I. Francis, a patron of the arts, summoned to Paris a number of Italian artists, including Leonardo da Vinci, who brought with him an unfinished Mona Lisa. Francis eventually acquired the completed Mona Lisa, which hung on the palace walls of a succession of French rulers until 1800, when it was placed in the Louvre, which became a national museum during the French Revolution. The Mona Lisa was stolen in 1911. When it was finally recovered in 1914, the previously little-known painting was an international sensation. Millions of people began coming to the Louvre just to get a glimpse of Da Vinciâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now famous work. By the early 1980s, the Louvreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crowds were overwhelming its traditional doorways, so Pres-
ident Mitterrand commissioned the design of a new entrance. The winning idea, submitted by American architect I. M. Pei, was a 69-foot-high glass and metal pyramid in the center of the courtyard, allowing visitors to enter through a large underground lobby. Critics immediately pounced on the pyramid design as incongruous with the Renaissance style of the building. Rumors began circulating that Mitterrand had ordered that the pyramid, a shape long associated with the occult, include exactly 666 glass panes, a number often connected to Satan. Dan Brown perpetuated this claim in â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Da Vinci Code.â&#x20AC;? Today, the Louvreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pyramid has become as much a symbol of Paris as the Eiffel Tower, itself lambasted when new. Visitors who carefully count the glass panes consistently come to 673.
