Donors give to healthy breast tissue bank run by Carmel oncologist in hopes of finding a cure By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com More than 15 years ago, Dr. Anna Maria Storniolo decided to pursue a “crazy” idea. Prompted by RESEARCH breast cancer survivor and patient advocate Connie Rufenbarger, Storniolo began the process of creating a repository to store normal breast tissue. No one had done this, she learned, because no one thought a healthy woman would voluntarily Storniolo agree to a breast biopsy. As an oncologist specializing in breast cancer, she knew that researchers could advance their understanding of the ailment by studying healthy breast tissue rather than only looking at samples already affected by disease. She knew launching a collection bank wouldn’t be easy, but she believed it would be worth a try. So, one Saturday morning at her child’s soccer game, Storniolo began asking women in attendance if they’d voluntarily undergo a breast biopsy if it would help researchers find a cure. “Nineteen of 20 women I had never laid eyes on before said, ‘No question, of course we would do that,’” said Storniolo, a Carmel resident. “I thought, if the women are going to do it, I can deal with the university that’s going to give me a hard time and the lawyers that are going to give me a hard time, so that was the beginning.” Since launching in 2006, more than 5,000 women have donated healthy breast tissue to the Susan G. Komen Tissue Bank within the Vera Bradley Foundation Center for Breast Cancer Research at Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center. And nearly 11,000 donors have provided blood and DNA samples for research at the Indianapolis facility. Those efforts have led to new research and several important discoveries, and Storniolo, executive director of the tissue bank, hopes they will one day lead to a cure, too. “When the big breakthrough comes through, I honestly think that Hoosier women are going to be able to say, ‘We had a lot to do with that,’” Storniolo said. ‘The most important day of their life’ For Carmel resident Stephanie Lesher,

donating healthy breast tissue was an easy decision. Lesher is the daughter of Rufenbarger, who has survived breast cancer twice, so Lesher feels personal motivation to be involved in finding a cure. She said the donation proLesher cess — which she’s done twice — was painless and didn’t leave a scar, although that may not be the case for every donor. However, one thing that is universal, she said, is a sense of accomplishment as a donor and the appreciation for women who choose to provide healthy breast tissue. “This is such a unique opportunity (for donors) to give physically of themselves in an extremely meaningful way that will help to forward breast cancer research, not only in the state of Indiana, but literally around the world,” said Lesher, program manager of the Catherine Peachey Fund, which provided initial funding for the tissue bank. A donation appointment typically takes 60 to 90 minutes. After a check-in and screening process, donors undergo a blood draw before heading to an examination room. During the donation process, a doctor uses local anesthesia and a needle to remove one gram of tissue, which is approximately the size of two peas. Storniolo said women are generally more likely to donate healthy breast tissue than write a check to support breast cancer research. “More than once I’ve heard the comment
from women that, with the exception of the day they were married and the day their children were born, this was the most important day of their life, which still to this day gives me chills,” Storniolo said. The tissue bank hasn’t held a donation event since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, but the next one is planned for Nov. 13 at IU Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center. Tangible results Because of the tissue bank — still the only one of its kind in the world — researchers have been able to compare healthy breast tissue with diseased tissue and take a closer look at factors that could lead to an increased risk of developing the disease. They’ve been able to study how ethnicity and breast cancer rates and types are linked and develop individualized treatment plans based on what they’ve learned. Researchers also have gained valuable insight from the tissue samples of the approximately 60 women who developed breast cancer two to four years after their donation. “Their breast (tissue donations) at the time they donated weren’t normal. In fact, we’ve been able to show that compared with age-matched women that didn’t develop breast cancer two to four years later, their breasts are very different from a genetic and molecular basis,” Storniolo said. “When you start down that rabbit hole, you start looking at what those genetic differences are and what those genes do, and you start being able to unravel the earliest changes years before you’d see anything on a mammogram.”
WHO CAN DONATE? Donors must be at least 18 years old, biologically female, not have breast implants and meet certain medical conditions. Breast cancer survivors can donate if they meet the criteria and have one breast completely unaffected by cancer. The tissue bank is especially appreciative of donations from members of minority, cultural, ethnic or racial groups; pregnant or nursing women; those with dense breast tissue; and those who previously donated between 2006 and 2009.

Doctor studies ethnicity link By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Dr. Harikrishna Nakshatri is leading a team of researchers to study healthy breast tissue to better unRESEARCH derstand what goes wrong when cancer develops, but he’s learned that what’s considered a normal specimen can vary with ethnicity — as well as the risk of developing certain types of cancers. “Some of us can eat spicy food, and others Nakshatri cannot, but those who eat spicy food and those who do not are all normal,” said Nakshatri, a Carmel resident. “That means there is a difference between the normal that makes us either susceptible for breast cancer or any disease where others are not.” Nakshatri’s research and its impacts on health equity have caught the attention of philanthropic organizations, as he and his team of Indiana University School of Medicine researchers in 2019 learned they would

receive $750,000 over three years from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative to map breast cell types as part of the Human Cell Atlas project. The following year, Nakshatri, a researcher at the Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center, received a $1.3 million grant from the U.S. Dept. of Defense Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program to continue his work to characterize unique biomarkers with healthy breast tissue of Black women. What Nakshatri’s team is learning is that breast cancers are nearly as unique as the women diagnosed with them, and thus treatment should be, too. The research also has shown that it’s a combination of factors that lead to disparities in breast cancer outcomes for women of color — who don’t as often receive preventative care and thus tend to have breast cancer diagnosed in a more advanced stage — compared to white women, Nakshatri said. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Black women are 41 percent more likely to die after being diagnosed with breast cancer than white women.

THECENTERPRESENTS.ORG / 317.843.3800 These activities made possible in part with support from the Indiana Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
Indiana University School of Medicine researchers Dr. Milan Radovich and Dr. Bryan Schneider recently STUDY published findings from an analysis that they hope will provide breast cancer patients with better outcomes in the future. Researchers analyzed plasma samples taken from the blood of 196 women. Radovich and Schneider found circulating tumor DNA and circulating tumor cells in the blood plasma of women diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer who have undergone chemotherapy prior to surgery can help predict their chances of recurrence. The researchers concluded the presence of ctDNA in patients was significantly associated with worse chances of survival and an increased chance of disease recurrence. When the presence of ctDNA was combined with the presence of CTCs, the outcomes were even worse. “(Triple-negative breast cancer) is one that preferentially impacts young women and commonly impacts Black women, and it
is one that (has) pretty high aggressiveness and one for which we have limited therapeutic options,” said Schneider, a Zionsville resident. Triple-negative breast cancer is often treated with chemotherapy while the tumor is still in the breast. Surgery often follows. Two years after surgery and chemotherapy, the researchers’ analysis found distant disease-free survival for women with the presence of ctDNA in their blood was 56 percent, compared to 81 percent for women without ctDNA. Patients with the presence of both ctDNA and CTCs at two years had a 52 percent likelihood of distant disease-free survival versus 89 percent who were negative for both markers. Based on the study’s findings, a clinical trial called the PERSEVERE study will stratify women with triple-negative breast cancer based on whether they are ctDNA positive and assign them a targeted therapy. The study recently opened and aims to create personalized, targeted therapy options for patients at high risk for relapse and for whom no treatments currently exist. Schneider said the study will likely take two to three years to complete.

a taxi driver for her younger daughter, who is 15. “I get all this time in the car with my kid,” Brown said. “In different circumstances I may have dreaded all the dropoffs and pickups, but I’m so grateful to spend time with her. Every single worry I can help resolve and every milestone I get to be part of with my daughters feels like a miracle.” Brown participated in a two-drug clinical trial, led by her oncologist, Kathy Miller, MD, at the Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center.
IU cancer research has given Jenny Larner Brown time—and the chance to think about her future.
J
enny Larner Brown was planning her own funeral. She was writing letters to her parents, her husband and her two children—the kind that leave nothing unsaid. As a woman diagnosed with multiple forms of aggressive breast cancer, who had seen the disease subside only to return, these are things you do.
The possibility of relapse remains, but Brown knows that Miller and the 30 other researchers at IU’s Vera Bradley Foundation Center for Breast Cancer Research are doing everything they can to stay one step in front of her disease.
But, five years after her initial breast cancer diagnosis, Brown, is still here. She shows no sign of active cancer.
“I don’t want this disease to get ahead of the research,” Brown said. “I need to know my caregivers have the next solution ready.”
And this 48-year-old mother of two teenagers is making the most of life—hiking sections of the Appalachian Trail, taking family vacations to places such as the Rocky Mountains and the Grand Canyon and, maybe best of all, being
IU scientists work to understand how each patient’s cancer is unique. They are developing new drugs to treat disease. And they are studying how to charge up the body’s immune system to fight cancer with a “living drug.”
For Brown, the bleak outlook from just a few years ago has given way to a new perspective. She’s decided to pursue a master’s degree in medical social work—to help other people with breast cancer navigate their treatment. With her husband, Danny, she’s visiting national parks, hiking, and planning bucket list trips to Alaska and Scotland.
“The moment I realized I could start thinking about a long-term future, there was a shift in my mindset. I became so energized,” Brown said. “There are still so many places I want to see, so much more to do and learn,” she said. “Cancer was a reminder to get on with it.”

Survivor bonds with oncology nurse By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com When 71-year-old Peggy Miller moved to Fishers four years ago, she didn’t want to change doctors from her CANCER small town in Glouster, Ohio. Miller continued to be a patient of the same doctors for 50 years. That changed when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2021. In November 2020, Miller called Dr. Michael Clark, in Glouster to schedule her mammogram. A few days before her appointment, Ohio tightened its COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, and Miller didn’t want to risk traveling, so her mammogram was delayed to May 2021. After her mammogram, Miller returned to Indiana and received a call the next day encouraging her to have a follow-up appointment in Indiana because of suspicious tissue. Miller found Dr. Kandice Ludwig at IU Health. After further testing, Miller learned she had breast cancer. Miller said her oncology nurse navigator, Leigh Flegge-Schlie, was a “godsend.” “The whole time this was going on, Leigh had many conversations with me, and if I couldn’t talk, I just sobbed and she took care of me,” Miller said. After her diagnosis, Miller chose to have a mastectomy, because the cancer had a less chance of recurrence than a lumpectomy. Her surgery was in August at the IU Health Joe & Shelly Schwarz Cancer Center. Miller doesn’t need radiation and she is unsure if she needs chemotherapy yet. Flegge-Schlie said her primary role is “to be people’s buddy.” “Medically, I meet (patients) on the day of diagnosis. I meet them on that first day. And from that point to survivorship or to end of life, I’m with them,” Flegge-Schlie said. “I’m helping manage their surgical care, set up consults.”

WHS golfer McGinnis finishes career on a high note By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Sophie McGinnis knows golf perfection is elusive. “Golf is one of those sports where you could shoot 59 and be like, ‘If I hadn’t done that, I could have shot 58,’” she said. Yet, the Westfield High School senior said a part of her is pleased with how she performed in her final high school tournament. McGinnis finished ninth individually with a 76-75 for a 151 total to help lead Westfield to a third-place finish in the Oct. 1-2 IHSAA Girls Golf State Tournament at Prairie View Golf Club in Carmel. Her sophomore teammate, Samantha Brown, tied for 13th at 79-75 for a 154. “I was pleased with the consistency and my ball striking,” McGinnis said. “As a competitor, part of me is thinking, if I could have done this better or hit this shot close (I could have scored better), but overall, I’m happy with how everything panned out.” McGinnis, who will play for Butler University next season, said this has been her most enjoyable high school season.

unnoticed by us is the way she prepares for tournaments. “She does a tremendous job of getting ready to play in tournaments, studying the course and having a game plan of how to play that course, and this has been a good example for our younger players.” McGinnis dabbled in multiple sports growing up. “I played every sport you can possibly imagine, except I was never a swimmer,” she said. “We moved to Bridgewater (from Hendricks County) when I was 10 or 11 and I picked up the game, playing at the Bridgewater Club. I gave up basketball in seventh grade. Basketball was my second sport. After a broken ankle and spraining both ankles, I decided golf was a less dangerous and better sport for me.” When she started golf, she would spend all day practicing and playing. McGinnis attended Guerin Catholic High School her freshman year and was a member of the Golden Eagles first girls team to make a state championship appearance. Guerin finished fifth. She then transferred to Westfield, which finished fourth in the team standings in 2019 and fifth in 2020.

Zoning issues cause yoga owners to look elsewhere to operate their business By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Many business owners felt that the COVID-19 pandemic shutdowns might be the worst of their issues, but challenges seem to keep coming for Jordan Stevens and her business, Happy Goat Lucky Yoga. Happy Goat Lucky Yoga offers guided yoga classes with goats mingling with participants. Goats often leap on participants’ backs as they go through yoga poses. Since 2018, Happy Goat Lucky Yoga previously offered classes at Pathways to Healing, 1212 Westfield Rd., in Noblesville. But because of car troubles, the difficulty that comes with hauling six to eight goats across town and a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis for Stevens, she and her partner, Lynsay Riddle, decided to offer the yoga classes outdoors at their 11-acre-plus home in northeastern Noblesville near Ind. 37 and Cornell Road. The home-based classes began in June. “We had a pretty good summer, but right around the middle of August, we got a notice (from Hamilton County) that we weren’t allowed to have classes out here and we needed to stop,” Stevens said. The notice instructed Stevens to apply for a variance to allow for business to be conducted on the residential property. The White River Township comprehensive plan does allow for agribusiness in the area, so Stevens and her family tried to convince the Hamilton County Board of Zoning Appeals-North District that their business is indeed agricultural. “The Indiana General Assembly’s definition of agritourism is any activity on a farm where people come to interact with animals and learn about them,” Stevens said. “We teach people while they’re doing yoga about the goats. So, (the BZA) agreed it was an agribusiness, and the White River Township comprehensive plan does advocate for agribusinesses, so it fits into the plan, but basically they don’t know how to regulate us.” The BZA voted 4-1 against approving the variance at its Sept. 22 meeting. Stevens said her neighbors’ reaction to the business was more hurtful than the BZA vote. She said the business received equal amounts of support and opposition during
police. The family did install cameras on the property. Stevens said she is most worried about neighbors doing something harmful to her 26 goats. She said sometimes neighbors drive by and rev their engines to scare the goats. Stevens’ house is zoned to allow for the goats. Happy Goat Lucky Yoga will finish its season with classes at the Tipton Fairgrounds, but Stevens isn’t sure what’s next for the company after this fall. For more, visit happygoatluckyyoga.com.

the meeting, but one public comment submitted by her neighbor, Lesley Cox, stuck out. Cox wrote a letter to the Hamilton County Plan Commission Board arguing that Happy Goat Lucky Yoga didn’t fit into the area’s comprehensive plan. Cox’s letter said the business would lead to a decrease in property values, and that goat yoga should not be considered agricultural. “It is a business, pure and simple, and has no agricultural purpose, use, or benefit,” the letter stated. The letter also stated that Cox is not in favor of businesses operating in White River Township, which is the least populated township in Hamilton County. White River Township stretches from northeastern Noblesville to Atlanta. Current Publishing requested further comment from Cox, but Cox did not respond. Hamilton County Planning Director C.J. Taylor said the main reason for denying the variance was because Stevens could not prove that Happy Goat Lucky Yoga was going through an unnecessary hardship that was not self-imposed. “The BZA has to meet five criteria in order to approve a variance, and one of those criteria that was the hurdle for this one was that the zoning ordinance constituted an unnecessary hardship that was not self-im-
posed,” Taylor said. “The state statute says that the unnecessary hardship cannot be self-imposed and can’t only be for financial gain and, unfortunately, that’s where four of our five members landed. The petitioner did not prove that there was a hardship that was not self-imposed.” Taylor said Happy Goat Lucky Yoga’s hardship was self-imposed because it chose to move to a residential property not properly zoned for business use. “I hope they do find a place that’s suitable,” Taylor said. Although disappointed, Stevens said the larger problem she and her family face is not their neighbors disagreeing with their business, but neighbors monitoring them to make sure they aren’t still operating as a business. “This past month has been horrible,” Stevens said. “We’ve been stalked and harassed. People would stop on the side of the road and see our foster son out there, and they thought he was visiting the goats, and they recorded him. A drone flies over our house every night.” Stevens said the family hasn’t filed a police report because she feels like there’s not much police can do without evidence. She said if she sees someone recording her foster son again, she will report it to the
The property where Jordan Stevens resides has been in her family for almost 200 years. Her mom lives down the road, and her grandmother has a home on adjacent property. However, despite the history, Stevens said the opposition from her neighbors about her business, Happy Goat Lucky Yoga, is driving the family to look elsewhere to live. “We just want to find somewhere else to live in a different county,” Stevens said. Stevens said the family is looking at purchasing property in Boone County, where the zoning ordinance permits riding stables. “That would be awesome, because we always wanted horses, anyway,” Stevens said. “We are hoping this opens the doorway to something bigger where we can do more things and get more of the farm animals we would like to have.” Stevens said she’s contacted the planning director in Boone County to ensure the family would be able to operate their business if they move. “I think we decided we just don’t want to be here anymore, especially when we are surrounded by neighbors who were awful,” Stevens said.

ESSAY
HUMOR
Tidal shifts
Tears for empty nest fears
Commentary by Terry Anker As happens today, the world confronted crises many years ago. Much like it had done many years earlier, and many years before then. It seems that crises, like most things, tend to be cyclical. With each one, we discover that we are not quite as powerful and all-knowing as we’d hoped. The tide rises. The tide falls. The tide rises again. As tough as it may be for those of us stranded by the tide, isn’t there comfort in knowing that it will soon flow the other way? Is it our mission to prepare for its inevitable reoccurrence or to curse the sea for its flow? Among the challenges of these phases is that a human life may be too short to experience them from such a perspective as to understand their pattern. Do we imagine caprice where symmetry exists? Do we imagine chaos where there is order, so when the world shifts, we condemn it as ruthless and uncaring? We wonder how it could do us such harm with so little warning. But what have we done to prepare ourselves? What do we do to react? Thirty-fifth U.S. President John F. Kennedy once famously proclaimed, “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” While many have said some variation before and after, the theme remains the same – seek to contribute rather than to benefit. Many of us believe it. Alas, many others just as fervently hold that they cannot, or should not, participate. “What’s the use?” To win, one must gain advantage. If we focus on our contribution and not our take-home, do we ultimately benefit more than if we retreat entirely? Do we have nothing to offer? Labor, time, compassion? When we take and not give, do we eventually lose?

Friends, it has begun. My husband Doo and I are approaching the last few miles in the Empty Nest Marathon. And I’m surprised to find that when I stop to rest and hydrate, I’m a tad bit weepy. Me! The cold and dead inside, “Don’t let the door hit you in the buttocks”-kind of mother. Let’s explore. Our youngest of four is a senior in high school. Her older siblings are off living their best lives in various locations — Bloomington, Colorado, France — and she is plotting to join them in their campaign against staying close to home. Fine. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, after all, and I’m a fairly decent FaceTimer. So, what’s the difference with this last kiddo? I suppose that’s exactly it. She’s the last. Everything she does is the last. I didn’t cry at my older daughter’s last marching band competition, but I found myself sentimental this week at her sister’s last dance team performance. I shed not one tear at any of the other’s absences from my Halloween Yard Spectacular, but I’m already lamenting that this will be the last time with one of my children helping to scare/impress the neighborhood toddlers. Lord knows how I will be for her actual graduation! Previous ones have been joyful celebrations, filled with the anticipation of smaller grocery bills and a less crowded driveway. But her graduation will be the last. Her departure will be the last. And then it’ll be just Doo and I, crossing the finish line to Empty Nest, pretending my tears are sweat to save my stoic reputation. Ugh. Wish me luck in these final miles. Peace out.

Chirping up a storm Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

The other morning, Mary Ellen shared with me at breakfast that she had not slept well the previous night. Chirp. Apparently, an annoying sound had continually awakened her. Chirp. I’m a heavy sleeper and am hard of hearing, which is why I am always shocked when Mary Ellen tells me we had a thunderstorm the night before. But as we poured our coffee, I heard it, too. Chirp. “That’s driving me crazy,” my wife said. “What is it?” “It must be a bird.” Chirp. “A bird?” asked Mary Ellen, astonished by my answer. What bird chirps once every 30 seconds, eight hours in a row?” Chirp. Where was the sound coming from? It was now driving us both nuts. We walked around the house trying to zero in on the origin of the noise. We put our ear to the microwave, which usually dings when completing its task. We checked in the laundry room because the dryer buzzes when its cycle is finished. The fridge door beeps when I leave it open too long. Those were not the sounds we were investigating, but who knows — maybe after all these years, our appliances had finally changed their tune. Chirp. I listened closely to Alexa as I asked her several times if she was the one chirping. She basically shut down, refusing to respond. Chirp. “Let’s retrace this from the beginning,” Mary Ellen said. “When you first heard that
chirp this morning, what was the first thing you thought?” “That I forgot to fasten my seatbelt.” Chirp. I headed downstairs to see if my computer was having a hissy fit. Nope. But on my way back upstairs I walked under the smoke detector. Chirp. There was the culprit! How could I not have realized this? Clearly, the battery needed replaced. I’ve always been good with batteries. I understand their plusses and minuses. But here was the problem: The detector was attached to a 10-foot ceiling. I couldn’t quite get to it with the portable stepladder. I told Mary Ellen she could reach it if she’d just get those sexy high heels out of storage. Chirp. We have a longer ladder in our garage. But there were several obstacles to using it. 1. The ladder was way too heavy and unwieldy for me to lug into the house. 2. I had never used this expandable ladder, so I had no clue how to extend it properly. 3. No matter: Mary Ellen won’t let me climb up on a ladder, anyway. We called our son, Brett, who came over and replaced our battery with ease. Mission accomplished. By the way, that full day of intermittent chirping in our house has not had any lasting negative effects on Mary Ellen and me. But our cat is now in therapy.

Arugula for ulcers — Arugula, a peppery type of salad green, contains sulforaphane, a compound already known to reduce the risk of cancer. Now it appears that the same compound can also help prevent ulcers. It helps the body eliminate H. pylori, a bacterium that causes peptic ulcers and increases the risk for gastric cancer.

Actually, garlic that has been sprouted for five days has twice as many antioxidants as unsprouted garlic, and it has greater flavor and pungency than the clove itself. So, it is safe to eat, and also is better for you. Source: Dr. John La Puma, ChefMD

Great stocks for $10 or less – Many investors have never heard of these companies because they all have stock prices lingering near or under $10 a share despite compelling potential for growth. But stock-picking expert Hilary Kramer thinks this makes them among the best bargains in a pricey stock market that hit record highs in 2020. Here are some of Kramer’s favorite low-priced stocks for 2021: Fallen Angels: These formerly high-flying companies suffered serious setbacks that caused their share prices to plummet. • ACCO Brands (ACCO). This company’s iconic office-and-school-supply brands include Swingline staplers, At-A-Glance planners and Mead notebooks. ACCO’s stock has sunk 36% in the past three years as high-tech products reduced the need for paper supplies and as the pandemic forced schools and offices to shut down. What investors are missing: ACCO Brands could be a big post-pandemic winner as schools and offices restock supplies. Recent share price: $8.09. • Amneal Pharmaceuticals (AMRX) manufactures more than 250 generic drugs that treat everything from headaches to osteoporosis. The stock has lost 80% of its value since 2018 due to the opioid crisis. Amneal is expected to pay out $1.2 billion in settlements. What investors are missing: Amneal has focused its attention away from opioids and now is focused on other generic drugs, the sales of which are booming. Net revenue in the third quarter of 2020 increased 37% year over year. Recent share price: $4.81. • Annaly Capital Management (NLY) occupies an unusual and profitable niche in the real estate industry. It borrows cash to invest in federally guaranteed mortgage-backed securities. The company profits from the spread between the interest it pays on loans and the yield it derives from its investments. In 2020, investors panicked that the value of Annaly’s holdings would fall so much that it would be forced to liquidate assets on the cheap to repay its loans. Annaly’s stock plunged 62% by April. What investors are missing: The Federal Reserve has stepped in to buy mortgage-backed securities to support the market and has indicated it will do so as long as necessary. The value of Annaly’s investments has rebounded. Recent yield: 10.84%. Recent share price: $8.12. Source: BottomLineInc.com

Country star Clint Black brings tour to Palladium By Dave Gil de Rubio editorial@youarecurrent.com Clint Black considers himself lazy — a rather absurd statement when you consider what he did during CONCERT the pandemic-fueled yearand-a-half of lockdown. Besides performing on a regular livestream and launching a line of coffee called Clint Black Cowboy Coffee, he hosted “Talking in Circles with Clint Black,” a television show where he talks shop with other artists. Country artists Travis Tritt and Brad Paisley have already been guests. All this came on top of releasing 2020’s “Out of Sane,” Black’s 13th studio album and one that retains his signature country sound. And now with live music venues open again, Black embraces his return to the road. “My booking agent — we renamed him ‘rescheduling agent’ — did a great job of keeping
things moved up just far enough in front of us so (live shows) might happen,” Black said in a recent phone interview. “Now, I’m as busy as I like to be.” Black’s October dates, including an Oct. 24 concert at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel, are nearly two-hour shows dubbed “An Evening With.” Black has recorded nearly 30 top 10 country hits since his multi-platinum 1989 debut “Killin’ Time.” The next decade saw him consistently release hits as follow-up albums such as 1990’s “Put Yourself in My Shoes,” 1993’s “No Time to Kill,” 1994’s “One Emotion” and 1997’s “Nothin’ but the Taillights” all went top 10. But as the 1990s moved on, Black said his relationship with his label, RCA, soured because of the label’s desire to have Black, who up to then had written his own songs, collaborate with Music Row songwriters. A conversation with RCA President Joe Galante was a turning point. “I didn’t understand the pressure to record outside songs when I have so many songs that I had written,” Black said. “He said they just wanted a little taste, and it broke my heart. If he would have said that
he didn’t think my songs were that great anymore, I would have felt better. It would have still hurt. But it wasn’t about that. It was about spreading the revenue from my record to share it with the people on Music Row, and I thought that was the exact wrong reason to do anything.” Following the release of 1999’s “D’lectrified,” Black left RCA. Although he has continued making albums and touring, he has expanded into television and film roles. Among the shows he’s appeared on are “Secret Talents of the Stars,” “Celebrity Duets” and “Celebrity Apprentice.” “I’m glad I have it behind me,” he said of the “Celebrity Apprentice” appearance, where he sang a song with Cheech Marin. “That up close, up front and personal exposure to ugliness is more than I ever want to see again.” Most recently, he and wife Lisa Hartman Black appeared in last year’s season of “The Masked Singer” as “Snow Owls,” competing while riding in a mobile egg. “It was really challenging in a good way,” he said. “The challenge in a bad way was singing inside that suit. You can’t see. The little lenses you’re looking out of are fogged up after 30 seconds and you’re sweating. If you have to move at all, it’s perilous because it’s inside of that egg. We had inches at a time. But I typically like stuff like that because I don’t see myself as too precious to step into weird things. I sometimes second-guess myself after getting in it. I like being a little afraid of things and I like finding myself in situations where something comes out that otherwise wouldn’t have happened.”

Squeezing in businesses By Rick Morwick rick@youarecurrent.com Ashley Thibodeau and Megan Peck have a simple goal for their new Carmel enterprise: To provide small businesses NEW BIZ that cater to arts and movement with a space to prosper and grow in the community. So far, Thibodeau and Peck already have five businesses housed in The Main Squeeze, which opened Sept. 1 at 33 E. Main Street, Suite 300, in Carmel. “You can find all your favorite arts and movement classes in one amazing space, right on Main Street,” Thibodeau said. “We currently have several small businesses offering ballet, yoga, music and art at The Main Squeeze.” Thibodeau and Peck own two of those five businesses. Thibodeau owns The Ballet Studio of Carmel, and Peck owns the Indy Ananda yoga studio. The women, who met in 2018 when Peck’s daughter took dance lessons at The Ballet Studio, had operated their businesses in a shared multi-purpose room at Mini Minds in Carmel before coming up with up with the concept for The Main
Squeeze. Peck, a mental health therapist, also owns Mini Minds, which is not housed at The Main Squeeze. “We were talking about the high demand for our (arts/movement) businesses, and we both agreed that we had outgrown that multi-purpose room,” Thibodeau said. “We both lived in major cities before and had known about shared spaces and arts and movement co-ops in those places. We thought, ‘Why not do that here in Carmel?’” Besides The Ballet Studio and Indy Ananda, the other three businesses inside The Main Squeeze are The Art Lab (owned by Maren Bell); Resounding Joy (owned by Lindsay Zehren); and JumpBunch of Indianapolis (owned by Stacy McIntyre). “Megan and I already had relationships with these women (business owners), and so we decided that these five businesses were a great starting point for The Main Squeeze,” Thibodeau said. “Our goal is to house even more businesses who fit into our two-fold mission of supporting small arts and movement businesses and bringing a wider variety of arts and movement classes to the community.”

Jim’s Amazing Bread with peanut butter and cinnamon make a tasty breakfast.
Commentary by Anna Skinner
(Photo by Anna Skinner)
Address: jimsamazingbread.com What to get: Bread Price: $22 per two loaves Anna’s take: One of the co-owners of Jim’s Amazing Bread reached out to me after I wrote a review on Native Bread, a dairy-, gluten- and egg-free product. Jim’s Amazing Bread is not certified gluten-free but is made with whole cell wheat. The wheat is gently crushed, which leaves the wheat cells intact, and therefore Jim’s Amazing
Bread claims that its wheat doesn’t release proteins that would otherwise become gluten. According to the company, the bread is not gluten-free, but it does reduce the likelihood of gluten-related inflammation. The bread has only six ingredients — whole cell wheat, water, honey, flax, yeast and salt. I don’t have gluten sensitivity, so I couldn’t validate those claims. Ideally, the beard should be toasted, then topped with whatever you prefer. I was less impressed with the price — $22 for two loaves.

Visiting George Rogers Clark National Historical Park Commentary by Don Knebel George Rogers Clark National Historical Park, along the Wabash River in Vincennes, honors the young leader of TRAVEL a daring American military campaign. When the American Revolution began, the British Province of Quebec included the land north of the Ohio River between the Mississippi River and the Appalachians. Quebec Lt. Gov. Henry Hamilton, stationed at Fort Detroit, enforced a royal proclamation barring further European settlement by encouraging Native Americans to attack settlers. In 1777, 25-year-old George Rogers Clark convinced Virginia Gov. Patrick Henry to authorize him to recruit volunteers to attack British outposts. During 1778, Clark and 175 frontiersmen captured Fort Kaskaskia, along the Mississippi, and Fort Sackville, along the Wabash. Hamilton soon recaptured Fort Sackville. After learning from Italian ally Francis Vigo (for whom Vigo County was named) that Hamilton was there, Clark led 170 American and French volunteers through harsh winter conditions from Kaskaskia back to Fort Sackville. A surprised Hamilton surrendered and was taken prisoner on Feb. 25, 1779. Virginia then claimed Quebec Province south of the Great Lakes, which later became the Northwest Territory. Clark, hailed as the “Conqueror of the Old Northwest,” was supported later in life by his brother, William, co-leader of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. In the 1930s, Indiana and the United States jointly erected a classical-style circular memorial to George Rogers Clark (for whom Clark County was named) on the pre-

sumed site of Fort Sackville. The 80-foot-tall granite structure features a dome resting on 16 columns. Writing above the columns reads: “The Conquest of the West — George Rogers Clark and The Frontiersmen of the American Revolution.” Inside, a 7 1/2-foot-tall bronze statue of a uniformed young Clark is surrounded by seven 16-foot by 28-foot murals depicting scenes from his famous expedition. The memorial grounds became a National Historical Park in 1966 and include a riverside statue of Vigo.
