Before that, she was director of special events for Prevail of Hamilton County, Inc. Community: Noblesville Chamber of Commerce, business advocacy committee; Noblesville Redevelopment Authority, board secretary; Hamilton County Economic Development Corp., executive board and tactical committee; AFCF-Cherish Center, board president. Nice to know: Johnson retired from US Airways in 2007 after 24 years as a flight attendant.
Biggest HCLA takeaway: “I have interacted with several of my classmates in both professional and personal ways since Johnson 2008, (and) I feel a special bond with them that will last forever.” What impact has HCLA made on the community? “Its graduates hold many leadership and board positions that make significant, important and positive change in our communities.” How did the program change your perspective on leadership? “I learned that there are many different types of leaders with different leadership styles within our business, education, government and nonprofit sectors.” Most valuable lesson learned through HCLA: “HCLA provided a well-rounded understanding of how Hamilton County works, and that each city excels only because of our strength as a county.” What will local leaders be saying about our community 25 years from now? “Our workforce is one of the most innovative and talented due to proactive educators and employers.”

Local teacher Bryan Hanan and his fifthgrade students at Stony Creek Elementary are making a difference in what schools they call “Genius Hour,” where students in Hanan’s class have spent 2 to 3 p.m. each Friday the entire school year working on a passion project. The student-lead innovations projects range from group to group, to which there are 23 students total. “We’re trying to base it off of … the Innovations class at the high school. We pretty much just started off by saying, ‘Hey, what are you passionate about?’ And then the kids made a list, and we spent a couple months trying to figure out what problems we wanted to solve, whether it’s community based or school-based.” One group in the class has worked to create a school garden, reaching out to another local school that has one. The food grown would later be donated to a local food pantry. Kaitlyn Shoemaker, a student in the class from another group said, “We’re working on making a fundraiser to get a bench for the fifth graders to sign at the end of the year.” To be placed in the building, the “goodbye bench” used to be common among fifth-grade

classes leaving elementary school to begin middle school, and the students are bringing it back as part of the fifth-grade class’ farewell. “We also have kids that are doing adapted physical education, games that are teaching kids with special needs,” Hanan said. “(That group) has been working with the physical education teacher.” Another group is creating a book for students with emotional problems. “They actually spent four months doing
research,” Hanan said. “They’re not just drawing stick figures. These books actually have a purpose with research behind it, and because they’re fifth grade, that’s what makes it amazing.” Hanan said he plans to continue the program in his class next year. “It was a little scary at first, but the whole thing is letting them take off and do it, and they’ve surprised me,” he said. “It really is student-lead learning.”
Divorce – What to Expect: The Benefit of Reaching an Agreement on Custody There are two aspects to child custody. The first is legal. Legal custody refers to the ability to have input on medical, educational, and religious issues pertaining to a child’s upbringing. Joint legal custody is appropriate when the parties are able to communicate about these issues and have reasonable discussions and disagreements that can be worked out. Generally, as long as the parents are able to communicate and cooperate with one another on decisions involving the child(ren) without a high level of conflict, joint legal custody is an excellent first step in custody agreements, both acknowledging the roles of each parent and investing both in the decisions presumed to have the highest level of impact of the children. The fact that the parties will not always agree, besides being an obvious component of divorce to being with, is not a reason to discard the possibility of agreeing to joint legal custody. The mere fact that the parties do not see eye-to-eye all the time will not necessarily guarantee that a Court would not order joint legal custody if the best interests of the children are served by that status. With an agreement, you have the ability to lay the framework out for successful co-parenting, beginning with this step. If the parties are at odds over even minor decisions and are at such a level of conflict that joint legal custody would be impractical at best and harmful to the children at worst, then either by agreement or order of the Court one parent would be vested with the final say in making any of these “major decisions.” The second aspect of custody is physical custody, which is much more often the subject of dispute. Simply stated, physical custody refers to the home location of the children. One party or the other having physical custody does not presume any level of parenting time for the other parent. In fact, designating one parent as the primary physical custodian does not preclude the other parent from having parenting time with the children up to fifty percent of the time.. Along those lines, parents may create a unique schedule which satisfies the needs of their children and each other. Often, however, developing a parenting time schedule can be very challenging. When parties are unable to agree, the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines provide a parenting time schedule that gradually increases as the children age, provides for a division of holidays, and time with the children should one parent live a significant distance from the children’s primary residence. It should be noted, though, that the Guidelines represent a minimum amount of reasonable parenting time
to be afforded to the non-custodial parent. Many Indiana Courts commonly award an involved, non-custodial parent parenting time in excess of the schedule provided in the Guidelines. People often feel the need to “have their day in court,” believing that if the judge hears “their side of the story” the custody order will be in their favor. However, in evaluating whether to ask a judge to make a ruling on custody and parenting time, the parties would be well advised to keep in mind that time in court is limited, and it is difficult to present all of the information believed to be important. A judge will receive limited information in a limited time frame, so choosing whether to have the outcome determined in this matter instead of an agreement requires serious consideration. This is not to say that such conflicts which arise should never be litigated. However, once you proceed to court, the final decision is out of your hands and the Court is free to accept your position, the position of the other parent, or a position unrelated to either based upon the evidence heard and the Court’s believe about what is in the best interests of the children. If parties are unable to reach an agreement, Indiana Courts will focus on the “best interest of the children” and in doing so will consider a number of factors in determining an appropriate custodial and parenting time arrangement. These factors include, but are not limited to, which parent has served as the primary caregiver; the child’s age and sex; the wishes of the child and the parties; the child’s relationship with each parent, siblings, and others; the child’s adjustment to their home, school, and community; and the mental and physical health of all involved. There are a number of benefits to reaching an out-of-court agreement, including but not limited to, allowance for non-traditional work schedules and flexibility for holidays. When parties are able to communicate and cooperate on these matters, it is a win-win for all involved.

Unified Sports is part of Special Olympics and joins people with and without intellectual disabilities on the same team, inspired by the principle of training together and playing together as a quick path to friendship and understanding. Noblesville Schools students took part, representing Noblesville High School, East Middle School, West Middle School, Hinkle Creek Elementary and Stony Creek Elementary.

Hoops tourney aims to unite By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For Abby Abel, bringing a unified basketball tournament to Purdue University seemed like the perfect plan. competition Special Olympics Unified Sports is an initiative that pairs people with and without intellectual disabilities on the same team to compete. Abel, a 2015 Carmel High School graduate and Purdue freshman women’s basketball player, and Mitch Bonar, a Special Olympics Indiana athlete and 2015 Noblesville High School graduate, came up with the idea at the end of their senior year. “We wanted to bring together an event that would combine Special Olympic athletes and athletes at a college,” said Abel, who has become good friends with Bonar through their work in Champions Together, a collaboration of Special Olympics and the Indiana High School Athletic Association. The basketball tournament was held at Purdue’s Mackey Arena April 24. Abel began planning for it in the fall, then put it on hold until mid-March. “When the season hit, I put it on hold because the season kind of consumes your life,” said Abel, an invited walk-on who played

in three games as a freshman. “Then we got out of the NCAA tournament, and we picked it back up again.” Abel and Bonar were the first Special Olympics Global Ambassadors ever selected from Indiana and attended the GEN-Uin Social Impact Summit at the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles in July. Abel was involved with Special Olympics and the IHSAA unified track program at CHS. Abel’s twin brother Greg, a Guerin Catholic graduate, and his Theta Chi fraternity brothers participated and encouraged other fraternities to take part.

Strawtown Koteewi Park’s Treetop Trails to open in early June By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com A public/private partnership between Hamilton County Parks and Recreation and Edge Adventure Parks has led to the near-opening of Koteewi Adventure Aerial COVER STORY Park at Strawtown Koteewi Park in north Noblesville. Adventure Park Manager Brian Niksch of Edge Adventure Parks said the series of treetop trails is expected to open in early June. “We have not picked that (opening) date yet,” he said. “Originally, it was Memorial Day, but somebody left the rain switch on too long, so (the builders) have been stuck.” The aerial park, in construction on the south side of the 800acre park since late February and early March, is made up of five different treetop courses ranging in difficulty with height. The easiest courses are the two yellow courses, the lowest at approximately 16 feet high, with two green courses in the middle, approximately 40 feet high, and the blue course at the top, literally, at approximately 60 feet off the ground. Platforms connect each trail obstacle from tree to tree. Obstacles include planked steps, series of ropes, zip lines, single tightrope walks and more from platform to platform. “We have about 60 of the platforms, so approximately 12 per course, and it will take, to complete just one course, a couple hours,” Niksch said. “Every obstacle that we have is custom built for this park. So, that’s going to be a unique experience. This is going to be an experience they’ve never had anywhere else. This isn’t just, ‘Hey, here’s the plan. Plop it down, and move on to the next plan.’ This is the only one like this.” Niksch said once open, he hopes the treetop trails will draw anyone and everyone. “We want to have church groups come out, Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts. That’s a big part of our business is getting large groups together,” he said. “It’s such a great team-building opportunity. Those are all pieces of the business, along with,

you know, just mom, dad, brother and sister who want to come out and have a couple hours of family time.” Anyone age 7 or older is welcome to strap on a harness and hit the trails. “There’s no age stoppage on this,” Niksch said, adding if a person believes they’re physically capable of completing a course, they are welcome. “The number one issue for Edge (Adventure Parks) is safety,” said Manager and Owner of Edge Adventure Parks Steve Doninger. “Staff are ACCT trained, and Koteewi Aerial is outfitted
with full body harnesses, helmets, gloves and a 100 percent, on-belay Quick Trekker System. Participants have the thrill of climbing, zipping and working through the courses with the security of knowing that they are 100 percent (safe) from start to finish.” Cost is $49 for adults and $44 for kids 13 and younger. Parking is free, and the courses will be open every day through the spring, summer and fall when weather is appropriate. “(Registering and booking) are fully automated. The majority of people will pay online,” Niksch said. “They’ll reserve online, too, because the way this works is, we can have 16 people every half hour going into the park. The first group takes off at 9 a.m., and the last group takes off at 5 p.m. You want to reserve a time, because if you just show up, it may be three hours before we can get you up there.” To book a time, visit edgeadventureparks.com.

Could Clinton lose in Cali? With the Democratic Party seemingly headed for the kind of upheaval the Republican Party finds itself in these days, we find it strange that Dem frontrunner Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.) has refused to debate challenger Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) next month in California. Hold the debate, anyway, and leave her spot open? Just a thought. In our opinion, that would have been her chance to push forward her agenda in a way that might have united the core of the party. Clinton probably will capture the 475 delegates in the June 7 California primary, and that, it seems, will be that. However, any slipup by the candidate or her campaign could propel Sanders even more than ever imagined, and if he were to win the Golden State, that would be an upset of epic proportions. ••• The Republicans’ “presumptive” nominee, Donald Trump (N.Y.), has been fairly quiet of late. Media sources inside and near the Beltway have him meeting with campaign experts – even those of bygone eras – in a girding for the general election race against, we believe, Clinton. That being the case, it should prove to be a battleground, the likes of which we never again may see. When people question Trump’s fitness for the presidency – and this is no endorsement, trust us – we are compelled to point to his multiple successes around the globe and the fact that he is adept at hiring high-quality men and women to get the jobs done. We have to assume it would be the same with his cabinet. Brian Kelly, publisher, and Steve Greenberg, general manager, are co-owners of Current Publishing, LLC. Write them at info@ youarecurrent.com.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Virtues and vices Commentary by Terry Anker We don’t talk much about virtues these days. And, the concept of vice has been turned into little more than the moniker for the squad of government enforcers assigned to keep humanity out of the gutter. But, for centuries, we all would have talked, a lot, about virtue and even some about vice. As soon as we humans could spend a bit of our time doing more than trying to stay alive, we have mused on those conditions of being that could help us to become the best that we might be. Plato, Shakespeare, Confucius, Mohamed and Jesus Christ were all among the voices guiding and challenging our thinking – helping us to frame those characteristics most likely to put us on the path to an ethical and soul-fulfilling life. Prudence, justice, temperance and courage framed the classical understanding of virtue. Vice, likewise morphing across time and continent, has more-or-less been settled
as defined as something degrading society or the social order. Closer to home, it is accepted as something degrading to our own health and wellbeing. With shifting morays, our understanding of virtue and vice has likewise been reconsidered. Yet, in recent years, we seem to shun the concepts. Perhaps, our desire to be perceived as open-minded has led us to avoid the tags at all cost. Too often, we refuse to pursue virtue for fear that it might alienate others who fail to see the value in the characteristics. And, we eschew labeling our actions as vices thinking having standards somehow makes us close minded. Shouldn’t we embrace the character traits that matter and understand why? And, shouldn’t we order our lives correspondingly? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@ youarecurrent.com.

– Henry Ford
Prison is tough, for inmates at least. My husband and I are rather enjoying our term as wardens. We’ve grounded humor our oldest, and he is seriously struggling to adjust to life behind bars. Attica! Make no mistake, Inmate 7 is guilty. We warned him about keeping up his grades, and thanks to the internet, we can view them whenever we want. I couldn’t sleep the other night, so I did a cursory background check. Turns out our juvie hasn’t been keeping us in the loop. The following morning, we read the accused his heavily-amended Miranda rights, and then promptly threw him in the can. He received no phone call. That first day of incarceration wasn’t too bad; he got work release for school and to drive his baby sister to dance. But then the weekend arrived, and his confinement took on new meaning. The complaining, whining and general depression soon morphed into desperate requests for shock probation. Denied. Twice. He did the crime. He’s doing the time. Then it got really interesting. Apparently word of his confinement spread quickly among his peeps, and we soon saw various attempts to break him out. While he was mowing the back lawn, for example, two would-be accomplices tried to jump our storm-swollen creek and pass him food (and shivs?). He’s not in solitary, mind you. We let him keep his phone, which basically keeps him in touch with his entire posse. But the arguement of abuse is rampant. Physical labor, lack of junk food and restrictions on electronics make him think he’s being water-boarded. Sorry, Inmate 7. You’ll get three hots and a cot, and you’ll like it. Or not. We don’t really care. In fact, it’s almost entertaining to watch him grapple with the knowledge that he did this to himself. Hopefully, he’ll learn from his experience and make smarter choices next time. If not, we have no problem Shawshank-ing his butt again. Some kids just take longer to figure out how to make parole, and he might be one of them. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may email her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

Parkinson’s support group kicks off By Kayce Patton • news@currentnoblesville.com A support group for people with Parkinson’s Disease, their caregivers, family and friends will begin this month. Deb Wilmeeting liams, co-leader of the group, said anyone who has a desire to learn about and understand the disease is welcome at the meetings. The group is being headed by three community members who all have a personal connection to Parkinson’s Disease. Williams, who has Parkinson’s, works out at The Climb, a local exercise program that focuses on physical recovery and prevention specifically for those with Parkinson’s. While exercising there, Williams said she encountered many people with questions about the disease. “People would say, ‘What about this?’ and ‘What about that?’ and the questions were always things we felt could be answered through a support group with speakers,” Williams said. Williams’ co-leaders, Lindsey Weaver and Helen Schaefer are a staff member at The Climb and a caregiver for those with Parkinson’s, respectively. The first meeting for the support group
will be held from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. May 25 in the Community Room of the Community Health Pavilion, 9669 E. 146th St., Suite 180, Noblesville. Williams said right now, their goal is to have the support group meet the last Wednesday of each month, but as interest continues to increase, the meeting times are subject to change. The guest speaker for the next meeting is Laura Noblitt, an occupational therapist, who will speak to the group about driving as they age and how to make home modifications to preserve safety, independence and dignity.

Moli Hall juggles duties in ‘Scaler’ By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com As if juggling her roles as actor and producer wasn’t tough enough, Moli Hall has been working alongside her father film and fellow producer, Dan T. Hall, on a new movie. “Being both an actor and a producer on a project is extremely demanding,” Moli said. “As a producer, I have to nitpick all the details of the film, including the acting, which proves to be difficult as I have to try to be impartial with myself, the director/writer, my dad and my co-stars, who have become great friends of mine. Learning to be unbiased with my own acting has been extremely beneficial in my growth as an actor. I’ve learned so much about acting due to being a producer and honestly critiquing my performance.” Moli, a 22-year-old former Carmel resident who is now pursing acting/modeling in Atlanta, is one of the stars of “Scaler, Dark Spirit.” The premiere will be held at 7:30 p.m. June

18 in the IMAX Theatre at the Indiana State Museum. “My dad and I are extremely close, but also, we are both extremely stubborn,” Moli said. “Occasionally, we would adamantly disagree on a line or scene, and I’ve had to learn how to let it go and trust his vision, as ‘Scaler’
really is his brainchild.” Dan, who said he received great creative input from Moli and other actors, said it was loosely based on a paranormal event he was helping film. “At the end, I included some footage from the actual event that kind of spawned all this,” Dan said. Dan, who lives in Broad Ripple, had been filming a documentary on paranormal investigation in a St. Joseph’s, Mo., house a few years ago. A non-practicing Catholic priest had purchased the house. “He had started to remodel and something (paranormal) was released,” Dan said. “He thought he could control it, and I believe it was controlling him.” The cast of “Scaler” also includes Fishers resident Dija Henry and her daughter Selah. “It was an amazing experience as always when working with Dan and the rest of the cast,” Dija said.
Carmel comedian hosts Enchantment Ball By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
Mike Gardner and his daughter, Helena, 5. (Submitted photo)
Mike Gardner has a special bond with his 5-year-old daughter, Helena. The Carmel resident, a family stand-up comedian, has shared that connection while they travel around the nation to comedy clubs. They’ve enjoyed two elegant daddydaughter dances in Kokomo, where Gardner grew up. Gardner said he believed it was time to have an event like that in Indianapolis, so he started planning the Enchantment Ball, which will debut at the Conrad in Indianapolis from 5:30 to 9 p.m. June 4. The evening includes dinner, dancing and carriage rides. Gardner said the target ages are 3-13, but it’s up to the discretion of the parent. “I really want to make it a night to remember for the girls,” Gardner said. Gardner said the numbers might be low this year, but he sees it growing each year. “It’s an awesome night for dads to bond with their daughters,” Gardner said. “A lot of my mail comes from single mothers
who say ‘I wish my daughter’s dad would do this.’ Women are naturally awesome parents, it’s kind of in their DNA. Guys have to try harder.” The key for him is to be interested in whatever his daughter is, Gardner said. “Right now, it’s dressing up like a princess and being a girly-girl,” Gardner said. Gardner, 32, travels to comedy clubs and corporate events nationally. “I’m getting big enough to the point where I can cherry-pick my gigs and travel less,” Gardner said. “She’s traveled with me on the road for quite awhile. Now it’s traveling for Friday and Saturday shows. When I first started off, it was traveling two weeks at a time.” Gardner shares custody with Helena’s mother, who also lives in Carmel. Helena will enter kindergarten at Carmel Elementary School in August so they will have to scale back their trips. The cost of the Enchantment Ball is $169 per couple. For more, call 317-647-0909. During the event, the girls will fill backpacks for less-fortunate kids.

Postcard to play in Fishers By Desiree Williams editorial@youarecurrent.com After two years as a band and countless rock sessions before that, local band Postcard has found its rhythm. music “We have a good system,” said Tyler Rodino, guitarist and vocalist for the band. “Akshay (Athawale) and I come up with the concept.” Rodino and Athawale met at Fishers High School seven years ago as freshmen. Already involved in band, Athawale joined choir during his senior year where he and Rodino discovered they could sing well together. This led to garage rock sessions and the realization that they wanted to be a real band. Athawale and Rodino, along with friends Gabe Boris, Eric Garcia and Ian Clarke, created the band Postcard during the summer of 2014. Postcard recorded its first song, “I Found Out,” two years ago and has since produced two albums. Postcard will showcase its talent when it opens for The Wild Feathers at 7:30 p.m. July 9 at the Fishers City Municipal Center. There is no cost to attend. The Fishers Summer Concert Series will be the band’s biggest concert to date with an expected attendance of 2,000

people. Postcard’s concerts started out much smaller, with friends and family as the main audience. “Our friends have been so good to us,” Rodino said. “They’ve come to so many shows, back to when we were playing to eight people in the middle of nowhere.” Venues have been reaching out, which allows for more exposure within the community. “I want to be in a place where music isn’t my side job; it’s my main job,” Athawale, pianist and vocalist, said. Postcard has new music coming out this summer, as well as a music video. For more, visit postcardtheband.com.

The ISO will also perform this concert at 11 a.m. June 2, 8 p.m. June 3 and 7 p.m. June 4 at the Hilbert Circle Theatre in Indianapolis. “It’s a wonderful example of (Pyotr Ilyich) Tchaikovsky’s work,” DePue said. “It’s exciting. The second movement is a beautiful, full movement with an oboe solo and a bassoon solo with a real kind of a haunting memory, which is sort of foreshadowing of Tchaikovsky’s struggles in life. You can hear (it) in the music. The third movement is an alto staccato movement. It’s a lot of fun for the strings. It’s quite charming. It launches into a fourth movement that is gangbusters.” Of Tchaikovsky’s six symphonies, DePue said the last three are his most famous. Ohlsson will perform a sinfonia concertante of Polish composer Karol Szymanowski. “Garrick is one of the world’s great pianists,” DePue said. “He is amazing in every meaning of the word as a pianist, and as a musician

and an artist. He also plays Chopin’s ‘Grand Polonaise.’ Chopin is one of the stalwarts in classical music. His ability to compose at the piano is unmatched. His piano music says so much. It’s an exciting program for us. I know the orchestra will be in top form having our music director (Krzysztof Urbanski) in town and having such a great soloist with us.” For more, visit thecenterpresents.org or indianapolissymphony.org.

Sorrell will discuss designs such as this in his IDC workshop titled “Inspired Exteriors: Trends in Outdoor Living & Space Design.” The workshop will be at 6 p.m. June 9. (Submitted photos)
Enjoy the IDC experience Commentary by Randy Sorrell First timers are a little shocked, uncertain of what to expect and a bit overwhelmed. Delightfully so! The products are fresh. The finishes are smooth, and the building is a testament to well-thought design. Home to 15 showrooms and 20 design firms, the Indiana Design Center is a relevant destination for anyone considering a home remodel or new construction project. The building is open to the public, and the staff will be happy to direct your journey. Our experience was formalized Feb. 15, when we moved into an IDC studio space. Suite 219 is industrial, edgy, inviting and thriving. Our strategic move has exceeded our expectations, and I am thrilled to witness giddy first-timers and seasoned returnees explore the building’s offerings. Collaborations A few recent projects prompted us to bring in Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting Gallery for interior lighting, faucets and bathroom vanities. A patio update saw us working with Caryn at Drapery Street for porch blinds, Brian at Godby Hearth & Home for a fire feature consult and Tay with The Premier Group for audio. Genius designer Adam Gibson has included our firm in a kitchen remodel. And of

Cost vs. value in your remodel

IRRIGATION
Commentary by David Decker One of the most common topics our clients ask us about when it comes to rerenovations modeling is the budget. People want to know what they can expect to spend on a remodel and where that money is going. Understanding how much a project will cost will help determine the scope of the project and if financing is needed. When planning your remodel, it is important to consider how long you intend to stay in your home. If you think you’ll be selling within the next five years, you’ll want to look at any improvements you make as an investment. With each project and home being different, it is nearly impossible to give a set figure on what a renovation should cost. That said, we can provide some guidelines to help For a complete, master-bathroom remodel, The Affordable determine an appropriate remodelCompanies recommends budgeting 7 to 12 percent of ing budget and understand where your home’s value.

Commentary by Don Knebel Dürnstein is a charming village along the Danube River in northeast Austria, 50 miles upstream from Vienna. Its main travel claim to fame is an ancient castle that once held as prisoner English King Richard I, better known as “Richard the Lionheart.” In 1188 A.D., King Richard joined Philip II, the King of France; Leopold V, the Duke of Austria; and other Christian rulers in the Third Crusade, seeking to take back the Holy Land from the Muslims. The Crusaders were successful in capturing significant territory, but were unable to retake Jerusalem, their primary objective. On his way back to England in 1192, Richard was captured by representatives of Leopold, who had been offended when Richard tore down the Austrian flag after a successful battle. Leopold held King Richard captive in a castle on the hill overlooking Dürnstein. He was eventually freed when England paid Leopold a ransom of about 100,000 pounds of silver, twice England’s annual income at the
time. The money helped finance the construction of Wiener Neustadt (“New Vienna”) Today, Dürnstein, with fewer than 1,000 residents, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Austria’s picturesque Wachau Valley, famous for the quality of its wines and apricots. A sign on a street leading into town encourages people to climb the hill to the ruins of Dürnstein’s castle, where they can get a great view of the valley and learn the story behind the imprisonment of Richard the Lionheart. The sign notes that Leopold, called “the Virtuous,” was not able to spend the ransom money very long because, soon after being excommunicated by the Pope for kidnapping a fellow Crusader, he “fell from a horse and died unexpectedly.” In fact, Leopold died from gangrene after ordering one of his servants to hack off his broken foot with an axe. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column, visit donknebel.com. You may contact him at news@currentzionsville. com.

Microwave potato chips – Want a healthy alternative to potato chips? Try making them at home in the microwave. Thinly slice a baking potato, and toss lightly with oil. Lightly coat a microwavable plate with cooking spray, and lay the slices in one layer. Nuke for approximately four minutes. Then, turn the chips, and microwave for two minutes more. Let them cool and crisp up for a couple of minutes, and enjoy. Source: Food.com
Whiten clothes – If you want to get your white, summer clothing looking fresh again, try this. In a basin of just-boiled water, add the juice of a small lemon. Let your white clothes soak for at least 30 minutes. Then, launder them as usual. For super-grungy socks or very soiled pieces, soak overnight before laundering. Source: BottomLinePersonal.com
