Thornbury said although there were some minor issues, such as getting props set up and sound samples not being used in the show, he commended students for handling things well and said the issues will be fixed as the band prepares for future compe titions. Thornbury added that the perfor mance, which was the band’s first contest, was considered to be a learning experience for“Everystudents.show, we get better,” he said. “That’s what we do — get better every day. You have to practice how you perform.”
The Noblesville Marching Millers captured second place in their class and received an award for Best General Effect during a band invitational at Lawrence Central High School.
At the end of each practice, Thornbury said students go through a run-through of their show that helps them to be in a per formance mindset.

I do have an appropriately awesome name though — A Girl Has No Name — (Game of Thrones fans, you’re welcome!), which is half the battle, and the help of my stats-fanatic son, who dutifully scans my lineup every Thursday to make sure I didn’t start a defense that’s pitted against my premier offensive minions. I also hold two distinct advantages: I finished in eighth place in 2021 and I am female. There are literally no expecta tions of me winning anything. I can only impress!So,here’s to a victorious football sea son. For me and for women everywhere! Peace Out.
ESSAY
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
It is easy to sit up and take notice. What is difficult is getting up and taking action.
Living the fantasy dream
Slight of stature and not a doppel ganger for an evening news anchor, Diego Morales is iconoclastic. Arriving with his family from Santa Cruz, Guate mala, he learned to speak English, went to college, served in the U.S. Army, then became a naturalized citizen, settled down and started his family. Now, he wants to be the first Hispanic to serve as Indiana Secretary of State. How is it that Diego, and countless others like him, in spite of what must not have been an easy journey, still pushes to march on, even charge the hill? Hope? Ambition? Fear? Gratitude? Responsi bility? A bit of each? Asked why, Diego points to the Parable of the Talents. He may be right.
Heads up, people. Football season is here, and this retired dance mom actually has a chance to dominate my all-guys-except-for-me fantasy league. After countless years of losing in the Toilet Bowl, I finally kinda know what I’m doing. I recognize most of the bigname athletes and understand when to start a WR over a RB in the swing position. And I orchestrated my draft to pseudo-perfection, even though most will question my selection of QBs (Justin Fields is a dark horse, my friends!). The time to dominate a bunch of beer-guz zling men-children is nigh. I have no contractual obligations to attend week end-long dance competitions anymore, and I take very seriously the incredible responsibility I have to represent wom ankind. I will not fail!
Many of us grew up with parents or grandparents who spoke with a dis tinctly not-native accent. As a kid, it all seemed to make perfect sense. It wasn’t until later that we came to realize that there was something different about our grandmother from those of our friends. Still, we all integrated into a community. A community, at least, where everybody sounded a bit different from each other but a community, nonetheless. It wasn’t equally easy for everyone. The occasional bigot would try to block the path. But in time, where and how people could con tribute would prevail. Perhaps it is in this very notion of service that hearts and minds are thawed.

Has the American body politic changed to the point that the melting pot has cooled? When we boast of the 2020 “record-high” voter turnout of a tick more than 66 percent, should we instead be talking about the third of us who opted out? Who is starting busi nesses? Who is guiding us into faith? Who is volunteering to serve? Who is raising their children to become the next generation of leaders?

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie
What’s the connection? Toward the end of Barney’s life, he was beginning to lose his ability to tune in to the sounds around him. Those big floppy ears were nothing but window dressing.
This column was prompted by two events. First was the recent 20th anniversa ry of the passing of my beagle, Barney, who accompanied me on more than 2,500 TV seg ments between 1991 and 2002. And second, that I have finally agreed with my wife (and all my friends) that I need hearing aids.

they hunt. Barney often walked ahead of me but would twist his head around to be sure I was nearby, still part of the hunting party. When I would hide behind a tree and my footsteps ceased, he predictably turned to check my whereabouts. This method never worked with my wife, who once walked ahead of me for 3 miles while I waited be hind a tree to see if she would notice.
Aspects of Barney’s walks changed. He would waddle along with his body almost at a right angle, bent in the middle, so he could see me at every step. He had lost his radar.

They cost more than I expected, but I did the math: For the next 1,200 times I’m in that store, if I can resist walking out with an all-beef hot dog from the snack stand, I’ll pretty much break even.

Despite the loss of his hearing, he lived a happy life right up to the end. He could still smell a doughnut a block away and he remained bright-eyed and alert until his last day.
On workdays, we both arose about 3:30 in the morning to begin our early broadcasting of feature stories around Indy. Barney was usually waiting for me at the front door. Then one day, he wasn’t there. He hadn’t heard the shower, my electric toothbrush or my car keys jingling.

Helping loved ones recover — When a loved one is ill, you can help their recovery even if you have no medical training. When you talk to them, get an update and be sympathetic, but quickly shift to a positive, upbeat tone. Don’t talk about your own illnesses. Let the person know that you are looking forward to meeting for lunch, or some other outing, in the near future. Have a funny story or wonderful reminiscence to share. Laughter is a great healer, and it can make the recov ering person’s day.

Fiber to fight diabetes — New research shows that people who are willing to more than double the fiber in their diets from 16 to 37 grams per day can better control diabetes. It needs to be a high amount of diverse types of fibers. Getting nearly 40 grams may sound like a tall order, but it’s actually not that hard and it could make a radical difference in your blood sugar level by increasing insulin production.

She helps school-aged patients and their families navigate education settings with their health concerns in mind. She also works directly with school staff and administration to help advocate for children’s unique needs in the school setting.
Self-advocacy skills don’t just appear, they need to be developed and coached to be effective. This is especially true for kids in the school setting, as they often fear being seen as “different” or “difficult” by their peers or teachers. It is important to set kids up for success by giving them the tools needed to find their voice.

Walking for arthritis — Walking is so ben eficial in fighting arthritis pain that it’s considered a natural medicine. Painful, stiff joints make it hard to get moving but mov ing is exactly what is needed for pain relief. For maximum benefits, you should try to walk at a moderate pace for at least 30 min utes every day. If 30 minutes is too much, start with less time and work up gradually.

Back to school time means new places and new faces for kids, which can be ex citing and intimidating. All kids need to develop self-advocacy skills to be sure that they can confidently ask ques tions and speak up for their needs in the classroom. Kids with chronic illness can experience extra challenges in the school setting, making it even more important for them to develop self-advocacy skills.
Educate the school: Parents of students with chronic illness must have a realistic conversation with school regarding the student’s diagnosis and how attendance, learning challenges, participation and social situations could be affected.
Improve your focus — Do you have more trouble concentrating than you used to? Studies show that our attention spans are declining, largely due to the use of technol ogy. We feel we have to respond to every text, alert and call immediately. Instead, try putting the phone on “do not disturb” mode for a few minutes when you need to focus on something else. You may find it easier to concentrate and you probably won’t miss anything truly important.

Quince paste, or “membrillo” in Spain, is a rich, delicious fruit spread made with the quince fruit. It is firmer than jam or jelly because it is naturally high in pectin. The pectin is activated by the heat from the can ning process and causes it to firm up nicely. Quince is made with fresh puree, cane sugar and lemon juice. It is both sweet and slightly tart, with hints of baking spices. Quince has numerous culinary applications, but it is par ticularly awesome with Manchego cheese.

“I got to see three-fourths of the original cast,” said Sumpter, a Lawrence Central High School graduate. “In 1996, it had al ready become my favorite Broadway show and I got to see it in ’97. It was a very life-changing moment for me. It was a spe cial experience sharing it with my mom and my older brother. We didn’t know how spe cial it would be.”
Fermin Iberico Chorizo is a dried sausage (salami) made with Iberico pork, a Spanish hog breed that is rich and flavorful. The pork is seasoned with salt, sweet paprika (pimento) and garlic. It is ground, stuffed into casings and dried. Remove the casing before slicing and then thinly slice for your presentation. This chorizo is mild, earthy andManchegodelicious!cheese is made with milk from the Manchega breed of sheep in the La Mancha region of Spain. The El Atrio Viejo is aged for a year and is much firmer than the younger versions of Manchego cheese.
This weekend, try a little taste of Spain with these three items and either some toasted bread or mild flatbread crackers. Want to be extra authentic? Serve with a chilled Albariño wine or a bottle of Cava, a sparkling Spanish wine.

town Harbor offer whale sighting trips and leisurely cruises. Visitors can get a spec tacular view of the entire area by climb ing to the top of the 252-foot-tall Pilgrim Monument, erected between 1907 and 1910, to commemorate the first landfall of the Mayflower and still the tallest all-granite structure in the United States. A nearby museum chronicles the history of Cape Cod. A stone memorial honors the signing of the Mayflower Compact in Provincetown Harbor and includes the text of that document.
Today, our road trip reaches Cape Cod, a narrow peninsula curving upwardly from the southeastern corner of Massachusetts. We will visit historic Provincetown, where the so-called “Pilgrims” first landed.

On Sept. 6, 1620, the Mayflower left Plymouth, England, with 102 passengers, including 41 “Separatists” (later called “Pil grims”) seeking freedom from the Church of England. Their intended destination was the English Virginia Colony, established in 1607. But storms blew the 100-foot ship off course, and it anchored on Nov. 11, 1620, near the tip of Cape Cod. Because they were now beyond existing legal authority, 41 male passengers, including non-Separatists, signed the “Mayflower Compact” while still onboard, the first American document es tablishing a self-governing community. The passengers then went ashore near what is now Provincetown. Three expeditions on a small boat around Cape Cod Bay deter mined that what is now Plymouth, Mass., would make a suitable settlement site. The Mayflower then sailed to Plymouth Harbor, arriving on Dec. 18. The passengers stayed aboard the ship during the harsh winter. Although the indigenous Wampanoag aided them, about half the passengers and crew died of various diseases before the survi vors went on shore in March 1621.
