Cops, students prepare for battle By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com The rivalry created nine years ago continues at 6 p.m. Nov. 6 at Hare Chevrolet Field as the Noblesville Police Dept. and Noblesville fundraiser High School’s sports marketing classes team up to present the annual Cops & Kids fundraiser flag football games. Dan Nicholson, sports marketing teacher, said the tradition started when NPD Officer Matt Johnston, a resource officer at NHS, was looking for ways to help raise funds for the “Shop with a Cop” program. “I had no idea it would develop into an annual event that our sports marketing classes would continue to run,” Nicholson said. “The hands-on experience for our students provides a great learning opportunity that we could not provide in the classroom. The students are able to see both successes and failures during the process.” The overall goal for the classes has always been to provide a fun event that provides fundraising for a local activity. “The time and effort of the students has been

amazing over the years. They enjoy reading the stories of the ‘Cops & Kids’ program in the paper and realizing they contributed to helping a family in need,” Nicholson said. “Since the beginning, we’ve had a handful of officers that play every year. We not only enjoy the competitive part of it, but it’s more about getting the idea out and across about ‘Shop with a Cop,’” Johnston said. “Some officers playing in the game are the same officers that are out there taking those kids shopping.” The games feature a team of NPD officers and NHS faculty against a team of students. “The students are always making comments that they are going to beat us pretty bad this year. It’s always been a close game,” Johnston said. “Because we’ve grown so much we’ve built relationships, bonds with the kids. It’s more of a fun time than seeing us in a different light.” Tickets are $3 and will be available at the gate the night of the game. Proceeds from the game are used during the holiday season by the Noblesville Fraternal Order of Police in shopping for needy children.

DVD review Big, dumb and fun - that’s the definition of what a good summer popcorn movie should be - and “White House Down” delivers on all counts.

Holiday Festival to light up season By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

BLUE! THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA

“SLEEPING BEAUTY”

TAO

CASHORE MARIONETTES

Hamilton Town Center will kick off the holiday season with a day of family fun and festivities on the village streets of the diversion Noblesville outdoor mall. From 1 to 9 p.m., the fourth annual Holiday Festival will light up the season for area families with live entertainment, Santa’s grand arrival and much more, before capping off the evening with an unforgettable fireworks display. “We really try to make it a family event. It’s a family affair is our overall theme,” said Ed Huebner, director of mall marketing. “This Holiday Festival has become a holiday staple for the Noblesville community and surrounding areas. The event brings together the excitement of the season.” The event will feature two stages with each offering various entertainment for all ages. The main stage will showcase live music by My Yellow Rickshaw and Living Proof. The second stage will be a Kids Zone where children and families can enjoy community performances by local choirs and be entertained with fire eaters, jugglers, face painters, balloon artist, magician, caricature artist and a live reindeer show. Zooperstars!, who performed on America’s Got Talent, will perform three shows at the event.

“They were one of the biggest hits throughout the event last year,” Huebner said. The Radio Disney road crew will feature a Selena Gomez concert ticket giveaway from 1 to 3 p.m. Mrs. Claus will also be on hand to share the magic of the holiday season with old favorites and new tales in a story hour. “At 8 p.m. we’ll have an onstage tribute to all the servicemen,” Huebner said. “The finale of the night continues with Santa’s arrival, lighting of the 40-foot Christmas tree and fireworks extravaganza being set off. It’s a half hour finale of the whole event.” In addition to the holiday festivities, the USO of Indiana will be recording “Messages From the Home Front,” a unique opportunity to send encouragement to those serving our country through a short video message. Huebner said that throughout the event, the public will be able to stand in front of a backdrop, look into a video camera and say a few words. After the event, the USO of Indiana will package the DVDs and send them to troops at military bases across the world. “This is the first time for this,” Huebner said. “This is the biggest event they’ve done it at.” For a complete schedule of events, visit www. simon.com/mall/hamilton-town-center or www. facebook.com/HamiltonTownCtr.

Parks pillar Noblesville Parks Director Don Seal announces his retirement after 21 years

Bennett named as successor

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com There are many ways to illustrate Don Seal’s impact on the City of Noblesville over the 21 years he has led the parks departCOVER STORY ment, but it’s the little things that people miss: the shade under a tree he’s planted, the enjoyment children get out of a piece of playground equipment he picked out or the sounds of live music that fill the summer evenings. “If you look at the last 21 years, Seal Don has had an effect on every facet of Forest Park,” Mayor John Ditslear said, adding Seal also has opened Dillon Park and provided upgrades to Seminary and Southside parks. “His leadership to the Noblesville Common Council created 184 acres for the future Eastside Park. There are lots of things he’s provided citizens in the parks under his leadership.” “Virtually everything manmade, I’ve either built or remodeled with Randy (Neff of the parks maintenance staff),” Seal said. “We’ve been planting 20 trees a year the last 10 years.” Seal began his parks career in Anderson in January 1972. After 20 and a half years, he was recruited to come to Noblesville and transform the city’s amenities. The landscape of Noblesville and the parks department was quite different when Seal started in August 1992. “I wish I had taken a picture,” he said. “Forest Park had suffered greatly, not because of a lack of effort of the parks director at the time, but because of a lack of thought given. Overhead lines ran throughout the park. There was a lot of old play equipment and a lot of dangerous play equipment in the park.” “Today’s park was not what was here in 1992. There was one bathroom and playground in the park,” he continued, adding a concession stand and shooting galley were nonfunctional. “It was a good park but it hadn’t been given a bit of attention to quality of life. I think Mary Sue (Rowland, Noblesville mayor at that time) saw that. She had an emphasis on quality-of-life issues.” Seal said one park structure was built – and barely standing – from previous materials found on the property. “Shelter No. 1 literally was an old pig barn,” he said. Another concerning issue was getting to the park. “You literally couldn’t get here. There was no safe way to get to Forest Park. You either crossed

railroad tracks or drove here by car. It also used to flood all the time,” he said. Seal said his vision since the beginning was to make the parks as usable and safe as possible and “to raise the expectations of what people expected from the parks.” “My greatest challenge when I first came here it was the Noblesville Parks and Golf Dept. There was virtually no recreational programming. It made sense at the time. Now we offer a full menu of programs but that took a long time,” he said. Seal has not had any controversial topics during his tenure but said the most interesting challenge came from an agreement between Forest Park and the former Deer Creek Music Center. The music venue paid for extra security, bathrooms and showers so followers of the Grateful Dead could camp out. “People saw that as an element they didn’t want in Noblesville,” he said. “The people that called to

order a campsite also setup a tee time. Most were blue-collar workers who followed the Dead because that’s what they did.” Seal his two biggest accomplishments are Hoosier Park race track in Anderson, which used to be a city park, and the creation of Dillon Park in Noblesville. “It was fabulous to build a new city park from scratch. It’s an incredibly successful park,” Seal said. “Good parks have water, topography and vegetation. Dillon Park has all three and other amenities.” Seal, who turns 67 in December, said he was tired after 42 years of service. “It’s just time to hand it off,” he said. “I’m sure I’ll consult and I’ll find other things to keep me busy. I’ll continue working with the parks foundation. After 42 years of parks work behind you, you can’t just walk away.”

How has Don Seal impacted the parks department? • Put in place the first park impact fee, which has generated nearly $15 million to date. • Directed the development of the Noblesville Alternative Transportation Plan resulting in the creation of more than 80 miles of trail and the designation of 10 miles of blue way. • Replaced Fox Prairie Golf Course’s irrigation system, added nine holes, built a new maintenance building and constructed a new pro shop, outing pavilion and cart barn. • Added 15 acres to double the size of the soccer complex on 196th Street. • Developed the Hague Road Wetlands and the Nature Haven Concept, installed a pedestrian bridge over Cicero Creek and trail connected the wetlands to South Harbour subdivision. • Built four new lighted basketball courts on the old Conner School grounds.

• Acquired 200 acres and developed the master plan for East Side Park. • Acquired 77 acres and developed Dillon Park. He also negotiated the contract for the cell tower which will result in nearly $1.5 million in revenue. • Expanded Southside Park’s land to include the entire square block and constructed the shelter and playground. • Replaced the gazebo and installed a new playground at Seminary Park. • Acquired the portable stage for concerts and events. • Projects include the paths on each side of 146th Street from Ind. 37 to Hamilton Town Center, pedestrian bridge on Lakeview Drive, trail from Forest Park to Morse Beach, and the Stony Creek trail, bridge and connection.

Assistant Parks Director Brandon Bennett will assume the director’s title on Jan. 17, when Don Seal retires. “Brandon’s a big guy, but he’s got big shoes to fill. He’s a great young man with great talBennett ents,” Mayor John Ditslear said. “We’re fortunate to have a young guy like Brandon. He’s worked in all aspects of the park department. Brandon will continue and improve what Don’s been able to accomplish.” Seal, who recently announced his retirement, was happy to hear of Bennett’s acceptance and believes it will provide stability as the department transitions. “I always assumed it would be Brandon,” he said. “It’s much easier knowing he’s the guy.” Bennett, a Noblesville native, did a summer internship and has worked in the parks department for the past 16 years. “I’m very excited,” he said. “Don has certainly left his mark on the community. I feel blessed they had him as a leader in the department … He assembled a fantastic team and I’m walking into a very positive situation.” Bennett plans to follow Seal’s lead and continue moving the department in the same direction “to provide great recreational opportunities for the community.” Bennett said the biggest lesson he learned under Seal was how to treat people. “If you treat people right you will get a lot of goals accomplished,” he said. “I’ve learned a lot from him. He’s been more than just a boss over the years and that’s special. It’s an honor to follow him.”

Y O U R V I E W S In Honor of Freedom It is our position that service in the armed forces should not be taken for granted. On Veteran’s Day, we celebrate the brave men and women who have served our country in the name of freedom - some willingly, some with no choice by means of the draft. Uncle Sam was once the bearer of birthday greetings to eighteen year-old-men across the country in the form of a letter to report for service either with reservist units or called for active duty. Today, the armed forces are plagued with budget cuts and stymied recruitment efforts due to the rising obesity rate and failure of recruits to pass drug tests and keep clean criminal records. Would reinstating a draft solve these military recruitment woes? Could today’s coddled youth withstand the pressure and responsibility? Recognition and special thanks are extended to those who have served our country in the past, to the military personnel currently serving and to those brave enough to enlist to sustain the armed forces. Visit a monument, fly your American flag, attend a Veteran’s Day parade or even visit a recruitment center on this Veteran’s Day - in honor of freedom.

Being spot on Editor, This is the second time I have written to Mr. Kelly and Mr. Greenberg. This is regarding their latest article “There is no one but ourselves to blame.” My first comment to you, a while ago, was critical and you published it but since then (and almost always) you are spot on. I appreciate your candor and honesty and enjoy your publication. I read your article on Ray Cortopassi, a distant relative and friend of mine, in the Current in Zionsville and found it very interesting. He and his family are terrific. Again, I enjoy your publication and read it cover to cover. Thank you. Dick Stoffel, 46060

Invisible chains Commentary by Terry Anker We’ve all faced it. The feeling of rejection and exclusion can be devastating. That moment when one is cut from the team, fails to get elected, doesn’t get the part or misses the promotion is one that tests both our self-confidence and our resolve to carry on. Our ability to confront the disappointment can either urge us develop skills that will ultimately deliver us to a higher level of success or lead to self-evaluation as unworthy in the most unnecessarily expansive fashion. Turn of the century animal trainers implemented the practice of chaining one leg of baby elephants to a stake in the ground. The restraint was strong enough to limit the movement of the creatures; but as the pachyderms matured their immense size and strength would have made it easy to overwhelm the constraint. Yet they did not move. With the hawser unconnected and lying on the ground, the giant creatures stayed in place as if held by an invisible force. In fact, the manacle

was often no longer connected to anything. The highly intelligent creatures remembered the feeling of restricted movement and simply stood still whenever the shackle was is in place. Younger humans seem much more resilient than we who have spent a little more time on the planet. It is hard to find a four-year old who doesn’t greet failure as a normal part of the learning process. Yet, many of our adult peers are paralyzed with anxiety about even trying to develop any new skills or move outside of our long-established comfort zones. The pain of perceived failure is real. And, one could guess that its anticipation might be the same. Do ancient scars keep us from living up to our potential today? Why are we allowing ourselves to be constrained by invisible chains?

Runners and walkers (we don’t run, but we do walk … to our cars), here’s a chance to work off whatever has piled on thus far during football season – until Thanksgiving gluttony comes calling. The Noblesville Parks Dept. is helping Beta Epsilon Tri Kappa Sorority with the annual Forest Park Step ’n’ Stride event, which is being presented by St.Vincent Health on Nov. 9. Entrants may choose from among the 5K run, the family walk or the 10K run. It’s really for an excellent cause, as the sorority raises money to promote charity, culture and education in Indiana. You can do your part to further the effort while adding to personal fitness. Event information and online registration may be found at www.iwant2run.com, or through the parks department at 776.6350. ••• Perhaps a health-insurance carrier has spurned you or someone you know recently. It simply cannot be a pleasant experience. We know a few folks who’ve endured the “rejected” treatment. We’re just wondering here, but don’t you believe it is possible that because of all the confusion and uncertainty of ObamaCare that insurance companies almost “have to” reject some folks’ attempts at renewal? After all, our illustrious leader, President Barack Obama, has done a fairly solid job of running down insurance companies (and they’re not completely innocent of all his charges) since before he campaigned for the last presidential election. He has maligned them – again, deservedly so in some instances – to the point where there’s no luster left. They’re viewed as villainous, and so their reputations are left tarnished. We further wonder whether any court would entertain a lawsuit brought by one or more carriers against the president on the grounds of damaging their brands. Yes, a lawsuit. If someone maligned your business to the point where it was affecting perception of it, and, as a byproduct, its ability to successfully engage in commerce, wouldn’t you sue for slander? Just asking.

On the way home from a recent trip to Kentucky, our middle son did something he has never done before, at least in front of humor me. He punched his older brother square in the head with full intention to hurt. Just like that, his skinny arm shot across the aisle and landed right on the temple. I saw the jab in the rearview mirror and almost crashed the van. I was in such shock that I could only exclaim, “Andrew!”, while my husband Doo literally lost his fashizite. I pulled off at the next exit so our awe-struck family could pull itself together. What had happened? Why had our sweet boy suddenly snapped? Amidst a flood of tears in the men’s restroom off I-65, he explained to Doo that he’d finally tired of being bullied by his bratty brother. That he couldn’t stand for one more second the teasing and the taunting. So he’d hit him, and hit him hard. (Lest you be concerned for the injured party, the only bruise suffered was a massive one to his ego.) Doo, in an amazing testament to his parenting skills, calmly walked Andrew through the cons of using physical violence to solve one’s problems, but then ended with “Nice shot, by the way. Don’t ever do it again, but definitely a nice shot.” It was. Back on the road, I had to stifle a giggle. How many times have I myself wanted to pop my first-born? Ten? Twenty? And that’s

just in the past week. Fifteen-year-old boys are buttheads, plain and simple. Is it any wonder that some dark part of me is still applauding my courageous seventh-grader for taking him down a peg? I am, after all, always telling my kids to stand up for themselves and not to become victims. How can I possibly be angry that one of our sons finally fought back? The weird thing is, their relationship has significantly improved since the controversial beatdown. Sure my soon-to-be driver continues to deliver condescending remarks and smart-aleck comments on a regular basis, but I have not heard any of his usual ribbing about my younger son’s height (Andrew is significantly shorter than his 6-foot brother) nor have I seen any attempts by said giant to bully his sibling off the Xbox. Our freshman has been treating Andrew more as a friend, and dare I say, with a modicum of respect. Hooray! I guess you just never really know how close someone is to his breaking point until it all explodes in one horrific, but somehow glorious, moment. Even a blow to a loved one’s big noggin can have positive results. Peace out.

Pianist Di Wu – ‘She has fire in her playing’

By Jay Harvey • news@currentnoblesville.com In all areas of her life, concert pianist Di Wu seems energized by following steep learning curves and making adjustsymphony ments as her taste and knowledge develop. When she’s cooking at home in New York, she experiments with dishes she’s sampled in her travels. “When I find something good in a restaurant, I try to do that at home,” she said by phone from a hotel in South Dakota, where she performed recently on her way to a Nov. 9 appearance with the Carmel Symphony Orchestra at the Palladium. She’s also a passionate tennis fan. She doesn’t play out of concern for her valuable wrists, but she tweeted from the U.S. Open men’s championship in September. Rooting for Novak Djokovic, looking back Wu was gracious about the man who bested him, Rafael Nadal. “Nadal played an incredible year, and he deserves the crown,” she said. “You can talk with her about anything,” marveled CSO music director David Bowden, who is working with her for the eighth time. “She’s a brilliant young lady and a fun person, and she’s voracious in her appetite for other things besides music.” Of course, it’s Di Wu’s professional course as a musician that’s foremost in his mind. Bowden first heard of her in 2005 when she won an international piano competition in Hilton Head, S.C. “A member of my Columbus artistic team … was there and called me up, ‘My goodness! You must hire her!’” he said. Four years ago, Wu was a finalist in the Van Cliburn Competition in Fort Worth, Texas, yet failed to win a prize - a jury snub considered almost scandalous by some. The Wall Street Journal’s correspondent wrote: “Nothing in recent memory has been as shocking as this year’s top prizes, which ignored the most musically mature and sensitive pianist competing in the finals.” Bowden has treasured opportunities to have the 29-year-old Chinese native as a soloist in the orchestras he directs, not only in Carmel but Terre Haute and Columbus, as well. This will be her third time playing with the CSO in the Palladium, where the audience loves her, Bowden said. “She did Rachmaninoff’s Second (Piano Concerto) in February 2012 and we’ve got a recording of it,” he said proudly. “I think it’s the very best concert we’ve ever done since I started here (in 1999).” On Nov. 9 she will play two works with the

THIS WEEK Gretchen Wilson – The modern country music icon best known for her hits, “Redneck Woman” and Homewrecker,” will bring her CARMEL hard-working and hard-partying act to the Palladium at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 7. Her songs like “Here For The Party” and “When I think about Cheatin’” are gorgeously rough-edged, and it’s no wonder why she resonates strongly with fans of country and southern rock. As she takes the Palladium stage this season, she’ll give a party you won’t forget. Tickets start at $55. For more information call 843-3800 or visit www.thecenterfortheperformingarts.org. Follow the North Star – Encounter what life was like for runaway slaves using the Underground Railroad in this award-winning FISHERS reenactment presented by Conner Prairie Interactive History Park, 13400 Allisonville Rd. Participation includes meeting slave hunters face-to-face and witnessing the fear and hope of slaves, assisted by a Quaker family, who risked everything for freedom. This intense experience is recommended only for those 12 and older; those under age 16 must be accompanied by an adult. The 90-minute reenactments take place from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at staggered times Nov. 7 through 9. Reservations are required; call 776-6006. Prices are $20 for nonmembers and $17 for members. For more information, visit www.connerprairie.org. HCAA 63rd Annual Fall Show – This is HCAA’s annual exhibition which is held at the Hamilton East Public Library Noblesville NOBLESVILLE Branch, 1 Library Square, runs through Nov. 15 during regular library hours.

orchestra, both suggested by Bowden: Franz Liszt’s Concerto No. 1 in E-flat and George Gershwin’s “I Got Rhythm” Variations. “When David has a suggestion I’m always all ears,” Wu said. “I’ve been wanting to learn the Liszt piece; it’s wonderful he gave me the opportunity to perform it. And there is much to say about Gershwin. I’ve done Rhapsody in Blue, the Concerto in F and the Second Rhapsody it’s brilliant music.” Wu, who came with her mother to the U.S. in her midteens to study, offered this assessment of how she’s developed since winning the Hilton Head competition.

“I’ve got a better understanding of myself my emotional and overall strengths,” she said. “I’m more aware of what I’m doing now. If something doesn’t work, I know how to fix it. When musicians grow up, there’s a little more depth to you.” More depth doesn’t imply anything stodgy, however. “She is unbelievably exciting; she has fire in her playing,” Bowden said. “Her phrasing is so expressive and so spontaneous. When we’re in a concert playing a piece, I never know what she’s going to do and she never knows what I’m going to do - it’s so much fun. And the audience feels that and likes that.”

Family reading night – Maple Glen Elementary School will host a guest authors Todd and Cheryl Schleuning in the school’s WESTFIELD multipurpose room during its Reading Night event from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Nov. 14. The Schleunings will read and sign copies of “The Misphits: Story of Snake.” The books will sell for $14.50 for this special event and $1.45 will be donated back to the school.

The event will take place starting at 6 p.m. Nov. 9 at the Parish Hall at St. Alphonsus Catholic Church, 70 W. Oak St. Dinner will be served around 7 p.m. If you’re interested in purchasing tickets for this event, call 615-584-6800.

Cold-weahter foods taste good, too Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley After you have tailgated for two or three seasons, you recognize that once the weather begins to turn cold, certain foods appear more frequently on the typical tailgating menu. We decided to survey people in football stadium parking lots and on our Website www.tailgatershandbook.com to see if we could quantify the popularity of certain cold-weather foods. Here are our results for the four primary menu categories: • Main course preference: Chili 46 percent, sausage 18 percent, soup 8 percent and burgers, ribs and sandwiches 6 percent. • Side dish favorite: baked beans 21 percent, dips & dippers 20 percent, chili 9 percent, cheese 7 percent and potato salad 6 percent. • Desert choice: cookie bars 43 percent, cake 13 percent, pie 6 percent and candy 5 percent. • Drink favorites: coffee 35 percent, cocoa 33 percent, hot cocktails 17 percent and beer 16 percent. If you want to try one of our favorite warm cocktails, here’s a simple recipe for delicious buttered rum sent in by Bill Paige. It smells like hot apple pie and tastes even better.

TITLE SPONSOR

Hot Buttered Rum Ingredients (serves six): • 8 ounces good dark rum • 23 ounces apple cider • 3 cinnamon sticks • 1 clove • 3 tablespoons butter • 1 squeeze fresh lemon juice Directions: Heat the mixture about 10 minutes. Be careful not to let it boil - just get it to a simmer and then pour into a thermos to take to the game. Be sure to serve in white mugs or cups so that nobody ingests a surprise cinnamon stick or clove. Have pats of butter available if someone wants an extra as a topping and enjoy.

Lang’s back and ready to rock

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@yoaurecurrent.com

The Palladium will be kickin’ on Nov. 10 when bluesy rocker Jonny Lang takes the stage on his “Fight for my Soul” tour. music Lang has a loyal following across diverse genres and his fans are young and old. He is a musician’s musician, adept at playing a variety of guitars while passionately digging for the deepest meaning in his lyrics. “Blew up (the House)” is the first single to be released from his album “Fight for my Soul,” his first new release in seven years. His hits include “Wander this World” and “Lie to Me.” The Fargo, N.D., native debuted his first album at age 16. Equally at home in the rock and blues worlds, he has shared the stage with the Rolling Stones, B.B. King, Aerosmith and Sting. Lang won a Grammy in 2007 for his album “Turning Around,” but left the major label scene behind after that to become an independent artist. “Fight for my Soul” is a collaboration with producer Tommy Sims, who co-wrote Eric Clapton’s Grammy-winning song “Change the World.” Of the “Fight for my Soul” album, Lang said, “This is an album that I’ve been wanting to make for a long time. There’s a lot going on inside of me. I want to share some stories: personal struggles, injustices I have seen, stories people can relate to. You can’t put it into one genre.” Lang comes to Carmel following performances

Painting a bright future

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com On Nov. 8, local and student artists from around Indiana will see their works of art auctioned off for a great philanthropy cause. In its sixth year, the CHAIRish the Children event lets artists paint unfinished chairs to help raise money for The Villages. This is Indiana’s largest, private human services organization which helps more than 1,400 local foster children and their Chapman families every day. This year’s event will represent several artists, including Noblesville’s Andy Chapman. Chapman, owner of Signworks in Indianapolis, created building signage for The Villages years ago and has participated in the annual fundraiser ever since. “I got to meet them and know them and it was a great opportunity to do some things,”

he said. “I didn’t want to paint it so we used the media we actually work with. We can wrap almost anything with this media including a bowling ball.” In the past auctions, Chapman has created a toy box, bookshelf and chairs, and artist table and chairs. “It’s just different. I ignore all their rules and do what I want,” he said. “I enjoy doing unusual stuff.” For this year’s event, Chapman has transformed a glider bench and table with an outdoor theme with dirt, grass, flowers and a bright blue sky. “We wanted to do something a little bit different. If they belonged outside, they needed to have an outdoor theme,” he said. For more information, visit www.villages.org/ special-events/chairish-the-children.

Franciscan Alliance announces cuts editorial@youarecurrent.com System-wide staff reductions will affect Franciscan Alliance’s 11 hospitals and health facilities in Indiana as the health system business responds to the transformative shift in hospital economics. Officials said 275 employees or 1.4 percent of the workforce will be laid off as a result of the reduction. Franciscan Alliance has approximately 20,000 employees. Officials said the healthcare industry is changing rapidly and economic pressures are forcing substantive changes in the field, including reduced reimbursements, new payer models, healthcare reform laws and shifts from inpatient to outpatient care. “Franciscan Alliance has not been immune to such pressures and has found it necessary to align staffing levels to reflect lower patient volumes and reduced industry-wide reimbursements brought on by reforms associated with the Affordable Care Act,” stated Kevin Leahy, Franciscan Alliance president and CEO. “Recent trends and the new law are challenging healthcare providers to manage the continuum of care for patients more efficiently and effectively to ensure the same quality outcomes at reduced reimbursement levels.”

Like other health systems, Franciscan Alliance must cut its costs of care delivery over the next three years by 15 to 20 percent ($375 to $500 million) to remain viable. In addition to the 275 job cuts, another 650 full-time equivalent positions will be eliminated by cutting back on assigned hours, closing open positions, retirements and through attrition. Leahy said the remaining 19,000 employees will see cutbacks in benefits in 2014. These cutbacks include the elimination of the 1.5 percent employer match to the 403b retirement savings program, elimination of the PTO buy-back program, higher employee contributions for healthcare insurance, no salary increases for management, and a new defined benefit/defined contribution pension for all co-workers not vested by Jan. 1 in the defined benefit pension plan. Officials said the cost savings from these, and other recent pay practice changes, will help preserve hundreds of other jobs which otherwise would have to be eliminated. “We are profoundly aware of the impact our decisions have on the lives of our co-workers and their families,” Leahy stated. “Those whose jobs will be affected by the workforce reduction will be provided with severance, extended health insurance where eligible, and outplacement assistance.”

Weigh insurance plans carefully Commentary by Jamie Ianigro

Question from Rick A. from Fishers: I currently get health insurance for my family through my employer. I know changes Insurance are coming from health reform, but is there anything particular that I need to worry about? Response from Jamie Ianigro: Health reform has a lot of folks concerned and confused. The main piece of the legislation that will affect nearly everyone is the individual mandate that requires you to buy health insurance. If you like the insurance that your employer provides, you are considered covered and can stick with that program. You may also be able to switch to publicly available coverage eventually if you choose, but all that is still being figured out. Any employer health plan you currently have qualifies as minimum essential coverage. You don’t need to change to a publicly available plan in order to avoid the fee that uninsured people may have to pay for 2014. If you’d like to explore publicly available coverage options, you can, but there are several important things to consider. With most employer health insurance plans, your employer pays a portion of your premiums. Your employer does not need to make a contribution to

your premiums if you switch away from their plan. You should consider this carefully before comparing your current plan to publically available plans. If you decide to check out publically available plans, be aware that you may not qualify for lower costs on your monthly premiums and out-of-pocket costs, even if your income would qualify you otherwise. Whether you qualify for lower costs will depend on what kind of coverage your employer offers. If your job-based coverage is considered affordable and meets minimum value, you won’t be able to get lower costs on premiums or outof-pocket costs in the marketplace. This is true no matter what your income and family size are. Your employer can tell you whether the insurance plan it offers meets minimum value and help you determine whether the plan is considered affordable for you. You can also contact your independent insurance agent if you have further questions or if you lose your employer’s insurance plan and need to see what is available. Jamie Ianigro is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services. Have an insurance question you need answered? Send it to asktheadvisor@shepherdins.com.

Stonycreek Farm’s special guest Gov. Mike Pence visited the 41st annual Stonycreek Farm Pumpkin Harvest Festival on Oct. 26. The governor expressed his thanks to Stonycreek Farm owner Loren Schmierer for his dedication to promoting agri-tourism and for helping Hoosiers make lasting memories at the Noblesville farm. What began as a small pumpkin patch in 1972 has grown into a 50-acre, full-service nursery and landscaping business and wedding or party venue, complete with hayrides and a zipline. Stonycreek Farm Nursery & Landscaping once served as a Native American trade route and was the site of an old gristmill. For more information, visit www.stonycreekfarm.net or call 773-3344.

Capuchin Crypt: Rome’s haunting bone church Commentary by Don Knebel

If your Halloween experience was not all you had hoped for, consider spending next year in Rome’s “Capuchin Crypt.” lifestyle This so-called “Bone Church” is, without a doubt, the most haunting chapel in the world. The Capuchin friars split from the Franciscans in 1520 to restore what they considered St. Francis’ lost ideals of poverty and service, adopting the brown robes and pointed hoods associated with the poor. In about 1631, the Capuchins left their monastery near Rome’s Trevi Fountain and moved to the Capuchin Church of the Immaculate Conception, carrying with them 300 carts filled with the disinterred bones of deceased friars. For reasons still unknown, the Capuchin friars did not rebury their departed colleagues, but instead arranged their bones in intricate patterns along the walls and ceilings of a small chapel beneath the church. As friars died, survivors added their bones to the elaborate displays. The larger bones were arranged by type, creating a pelvis room, a leg and thigh bone room and a room of skulls. Smaller bones became floral and geometric designs, wall clocks and chandeliers. In some rooms, intact skeletons were propped upright and covered with musty robes, eerily recalling the Grim Reaper. When the practice stopped in 1870, the chapel walls and ceilings

“Skull Room in Rome’s Capuchin Chapel” (Photo by Don Knebel)

were covered with more than 500,000 bones of 3,700 Capuchins from all over the world and the Italian poor they had served. The earliest known description of the Capuchin Crypt comes from the Marquis de Sade, who wrote after a visit in 1775 that it was “worthy of an English mind” and he had never “seen anything more impressive.” In the nineteenth century, the crypt was open to the public only during the week following All Souls Day, two days after Halloween. Today, the Capuchin Crypt is open year round

(except Thursdays) to promote the sobering Capuchin message that time is running out for each of us to help the poor. Near the last room is a sign in five languages reading, “What you are now, we once were; what we are now, you shall be.” If that thought doesn’t scare you, nothing will. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit currentzionsville.com. You may contact him at news@currentzionsville.com

HOW TO: BEACH HAIR ALL YEAR LONG The weather may be getting colder but you can still have that tousled, “just back from the beach look” no matter what the temperature. Follow this guide to help create this look even on the cold, wintery days! Prep Wash hair as normal and wrap hair in a towel to absorb extra moisture. Spray Spray damp hair with Aquage Sea Salt Texturizing Spray (found at Salon 01). The sea salt will add the texture necessary to hold a natural curl. Style Using a "Curls Like Us" towel (we stock them), gently scrunch the hair to add volume and enhance your natural curl. Set For the best result, allow hair to air-dry naturally, and then touch it up with a curling iron if necessary. If you’re pressed for time and need to blow dry, use a wide tooth comb to pick up hair at the roots and blow dry, roots to ends, with high heat. Shine Rub a drop of Salon 01 Shine drops through the ends of your hair for a polished finish! Heard of Deva Curl? If not, schedule an appointment with a Salon 01 Deva Curl specialist to learn all about the newest tips and tricks for your curly locks.

TRY THIS LOOK! We think a sultry, smoky look for your eyes is a great way to go glam for an evening event. Follow these steps to achieve this look: 1. Prep your eye area by applying a touch of concealer to your upper and lower lids. Set the concealer with a brush of loose powder. 2. Line your eyes with a firm eye pencil. “Stay as close to the base of the lashes as possible,” says Salon 01 Makeup Artist Kelly Lohrman. “Once lined, use your finger or small brush to gently smudge the liner up towards the creases of your eye. For a dramatic and bold effect, repeat on your bottom lashline.” 3. Set the liner with another swipe of translucent powder again. This will also soften the effect and keep the liner from smudging. 4. Add a dark, matte eye shadow to the lids, blending toward the creases. Pick black for a traditional smoky eye, or use a color like green or purple for a more modern look. 5. Don’t forget to finish off with a couple coats of volumizing mascara. For more makeup tips and for help finding the makeup shades that are right for you, stop in Salon 01 for a makeup consultation and lesson. LEAVE-IN CONDITIONER Learn to love a leave-in conditioner! Using a light spritz everyday helps protect your hair from damage caused by the sun and styling tools. Cold weather dries out your hair too, so not only will a leave-in conditioner protect your hair, it will keep it healthy through the winter months. Salon 01 stocks a great variety of these conditioners, such as Aquage Hydrating Mist and Biominoil Leave In Treatment. Stop in and speak with a knowledgeable professional today!

Creating a deluxe master shower Commentary by David Decker

Starting the day off with a soothing shower always puts me in the right frame of mind to tackle the day. The master bathroom shower has indoors evolved from a spot to get clean quickly into a luxurious retreat complete with multiple showerheads, massage units, body sprayers and electronic controls. Additionally, luxury showers are increasing in popularity because they take up less space and are less hazardous for aging homeowners than bathtubs. There isn’t necessarily an ideal size for a master shower, since the measurements will be dependent on the amount of space you have available. If you want two people to be able to fit in the shower comfortably at once, the width of the shower will need to be at least 60 inches. When you know the amount of space you have to work with, you can begin the process of choosing your showerhead(s). Rain showerheads are designed to be affixed to the ceiling and give off a spa-like feeling. Showers shared by two people could benefit from two showerheads with adjustable water pressure settings. Most of the time, dual showerheads are installed either facing each other or side-by-side. You’ll

probably want to make sure that one (or both) of the showerheads is a handheld model since they are so versatile and easy-to-use. For added luxury, you might choose to install jets or body sprays. Some models can even be controlled by a remote control system. Rectangular shower benches have traditionally been a staple of shower design. Today, many designers are innovating the conventional design or leaving them out completely. You could even choose to install a fold-up shower bench that can be stowed when not in use. The only downside to all of these new developments in shower technology is the added cost on your monthly water bill. However, you can seek out low-flow showerheads, which are designed to save water in an environmentally friendly way. Consider all of your options during a bathroom remodel to ensure you make the best selection and add value to your home.
