Walk for Love aims to prevent bullying, suicide By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com You are not the pain you feel. That’s the message former Westfield resident and current IUPUI student, Samantha Brinkman, wants to portray at her second Walk for Love event taking place this philanthropy month. Walk for Love is an anti-bullying/suicide prevention 5K run and walk. All proceeds go to To Write Love on Her Arms, a suicide prevention nonprofit organization. Brinkman believes in the cause, and is also a victim of bullying accompanied with a suicide attempt during her freshman year of college. The main medium of bullying for Brinkman was cyberbullying – people who she did not know would send her mean texts or Facebook messages. “I was having a hard time adjusting to college in general, it’s a big transition, and I felt kind of lost,” Brinkman said. “I started to believe the things they were saying and thought everyone would be better off without me. I was hospitalized for attempted suicide.” Brinkman spent a week in a stress center after her hospitalization, and said that experience really put things into perspective for her. “Instead of just dwelling on the negative, I wanted to make something positive out of it and not let it defeat me,” she said. “I overcame it and want to help others overcome it. I want to take the stigma off of mental illness because it’s okay to not be okay. Everybody is not okay sometimes.” There will be t-shirts and bracelets sold at the event, and a ceremony when people check-in. A few speakers will share their personal experiences with bullying and depression. After the success of the event last year, Brinkman has been contacted by various companies hoping to assist this year’s event. Red Frog Events in Chicago wanted to help her with race bibs and ticketing and a t-shirt company, Bright Ideas, is making this year’s shirts for the event. Although all proceeds currently go to TWLOHA, Brinkman is searching for a local charity to donate to. “We would love to donate to a local organiza-

tion in any way,” she said. “People are finding out about it, people are wanting to get involved and that’s something we are very excited about. It’s (Walk for Love) still in the process of growing, but it is growing.” This year, Brinkman has taken her goal of spreading love one step further. She recently placed many post-it notes with motivational messages around the IUPUI campus. She is also trying to partner with schools around the area to speak to the students and share her story. Walk for Love takes place 11 a.m. May 23 at Cool Creek Park. Registration can be made before or at the event and costs $5.

Students bike to school By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Early in the morning on May 6, students from all grades at Washington Woods Elementary met at Westfield Lightexercise ing with their parents, city officials, teachers and police officers to participate in Bike to School Day. Police blocked off a portion of Grassy Branch Road so the students could have a safe trip to school. Some parents joined the bike ride, and Dr. Scott Williams, Washington Woods Elementary principal, also participated. Three other elementary schools participated as well – Oak Trace, Monon Trails and Shamrock Springs. “It’s National Bike to School Day,” Parks and Rec Director Melody Jones said. “There’s five dozen schools across Indiana participating, but Westfield has one of the highest percentages. The main reason is to encourage families to use both walking and biking to school.” The idea of the event is to not just be one day out of the year, but to be a consistent activity amongst families. “It promotes exercise and healthy lifestyle,” June Analco, a parent who was participating in the bike ride, said. “It gives kids an opportunity to be with friends and have parents join.

It supports the community because people see the kids with the parents and the police officers helping.” The students met a little before 8 a.m. and rode together. To participate in the event, they brought home a form to have their parents sign and fill out. Students could opt to not participate as well.

Elementary Education w/Social Studies Endorsement, Huntington University, Huntington; License for Gifted and Talented Education, Purdue University, West Lafayette Why did you become a teacher? As a young child, I always said I wanted to be a teacher. However, in 5th grade I specifically remember talking myself out of that career choice, thinking that I was too shy for the job. It wasn’t until halfway through my freshman year of college that I realized teaching was what I was made to do. My passion for learning and guiding adolescents through a challenging time in their lives is something I find incredibly rewarding. What goals do you have for your students? My desire for my students is that they find the confidence to be themselves and stand up for what they believe in. It sounds cliché, but in 6th grade sometimes it can feel like the most important thing in life is to fit in with everyone else. I truly hope my students can gain confidence in my classroom that

will support them in life as well. What do you encourage parents to do at home to help their Miller children strengthen particular skills? When your child encounters a trial, whether in the form of a test of their knowledge or a challenge of their organizational skills, gently guide them through it with grit and perseverance. As an 11 or 12 year old, it can be so hard to face tough moments in life by getting up and trying again, and as parents, it can be so difficult for us to watch our child face failure of any kind. Help your child understand that his or her effort is far more important in life than natural ability. Walking with them through these moments will help them develop coping skills that will last them a lifetime. Name your favorite movie. “The Sound of Music” Name your favorite musician or band. It’s too hard to choose just one! I’ll go with a local band: The Aaron Pelsue Band. What’s something your students might not know about you?

Brooks pays tribute to late officer Jowitt By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County Sheriff’s Department Sgt. Kimberly Jowitt was a pioneer in the Hamilton County law enforcement arena. U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks (R-IN5) Police shared memories of Jowitt during the 34th annual Hamilton County Law Enforcement Memorial Service at Carmel Civic Square on May 6. Jowitt, whose husband Kevin is Noblesville Police Department Chief, died at age 58 in July 2014 after a three-year battle with cancer. “She broke down gender barriers,” Brooks said. “She had many firsts in her career and it opened the door to many female public servants, many women who had not been in law enforcement. Kim Jowitt was the first in Hamilton County. Many women saw that they too could help serve their country and serve their communities.” Brooks entered the details of Jowitt’s service into the Congressional Record, the official daily record of the proceedings of the U.S. Congress. “The Congressional Record means she will forever be memorialized in the history of our country,” Brooks said. “Our Congressional Record is filled of memories of heroes and peo-

Westfield High School juniors heading to Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Two Westfield High School juniors will be trading in a relaxing summer break for an intense musical experience of a lifetime. cover story Emma Derouin and Taylor Smith, who play the baritone horn, will perform with the Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps. “I’m looking forward to being part of a production whose goal is perfection,” Smith said. “They have an excellent staff. Being able to perform with the top musicians of my age is really cool.” It’s also special that Smith gets to share it with his close friend. Derouin and Smith took school finals early and leave May 20 for the base camp in Forest City, Iowa. They then leave for La Crosse, Wis., (home for Blue Stars) for training from June 9-16. The opening show is at Lucas Oil on June 17. The group will have another Indiana appearance at Ball State on June 26. The group travels by bus through the summer to several states, including places as far away as Minnesota, Oklahoma, Texas and New York. The Blue Stars’ summer ends with the Drum Corps International World Championships on Aug. 6-8 at Lucas Oil Stadium. Derouin has served as the Westfield drum major for the past two years. “I’m looking forward to getting back on the field and marching,” Derouin said. “I haven’t marched in a really long time.” Smith said he was optimistic before going to the audition camp. Smith and Derouin were selected from more than 2,000 contenders. They learned they were picked in November. “It seemed like something I was made for,” Smith said. “When you go there it’s a little intimidating because you are competing against hundreds of kids for just a few spots. It’s very rewarding.” Derouin said she believed making it was a realistic dream.

My son, the new driver

FROM THE BA C KSHOP So, does Christie have a backbone? There was a time when we actually believed Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) would make a fine presidential candidate. And then came Super Storm Sandy a few years back. President Barack Obama showing up on a wind-ravaged boardwalk, Christie at his side, pledging help to rebuild the Jersey Shore, followed that. It was a great and noble gesture, the president’s appearance and promise. It also was important. And then they shared a quick hug. Sure, it was in the emotion of the moment, but that’s when Christie seemed to lose his backbone (endemic of the Republican Party across this great nation). He was, in the moment, being a great governor, though. And then came Bridge Gate and a blown opportunity. When challenged, if he was as innocent as he claims, then why didn’t he go Christie on the media and critics? Very strange. The larger picture will show that he lost, and probably won’t regain, the pointed bluster for which he was known. Too bad. Perhaps because the party isn’t necessarily giving him a second look that it’s a signal he still may be a viable candidate. America needs a president that can stand in the gap, kick butts and take names, and he appeared to be that person. The question is this: Is it too late for him to become a phoenix? We wish we knew. The Daily Beast last week wrote Christie “is planning, over the course of the next few weeks … to deliver a series of policy speeches on various topics … Still, there’s no telling whether his attempt to change the conversation will work.” We’ll be interested to see how it all shakes out, but in our view it probably will be a case of too little too late.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The life-form ladder

Commentary by Terry Anker

One wonders how like us Neanderthal humans may have been. To be sure, there are countless environmental and even physical differences between us moderns and our ancestors. But, is there a retinue of characteristics that has been with us from the beginning? Love, envy, happiness and despair might be on the start of such a list. Surely, they deserve consideration as perpetual qualities of humanity. What about anger, hope, intellect and generosity? But then, can’t we expect the family dog to exhibit many of these same traits? Is it that these words apply to all creatures on a continuum from amoeba to Homo sapiens? Does our command over concepts increase with each rung on the life-form ladder? Philosophers have discussed and dissected these kinds of questions for as long as we’ve had language with which to debater the matter. Arriving at a moment when we “know” that we are a being and imagining what that means is a common conception of

what might distinguish humans from other higher order animals. But if they lack the ability to communicate with us, is it possible to imagine that they do understand more than we think? Many others point to God’s choice of humans to hold dominion over his earthly creation. Do the animals know of this directive? Did they have one of their own? It all becomes very confusing, very quickly. In a world where universal truths are hard to come by, we look for common ground. If we can distill the elements that make up our collective humanity, can we hope to better understand one another? In looking at a little closer to home, do we see ourselves and those closest to us with an eye informed by these basic elements? Could it help us understand our spouses? Teenagers? They are humans, aren’t they? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel.com.

Q U OTE OF THE WEEK “Cynicism is a powerful anesthetic we use to numb ourselves to pain, but which also numbs us to joy.” - Rachel Held Evans

How do I describe, in 350 words or less, the multitude of emotions that bombarded me when my oldest obtained his driver’s license? I have no idea, but humor doggoneit, I’m gonna try! The first feeling that hit was relief. This has been a long-anticipated event in our household for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is having a third driver able to pick up/drop off at dance, volleyball, tae kwon do, track, PRE, student council, Orff, art club, cross country, Sports Clips, Yogurtz and Subway. [Carpooling and I no longer must maintain our façade of niceties and can finally go our separate ways; I wish him the best of luck!] Piggy-backing relief was pride. We have kept our heir alive for sixteen years and instilled in him not only excellent roundabout negotiating skills, but also, gasp, civic responsibility! While completing the paperwork at the BMV, he registered as an organ donor and inquired about his eligibility to vote in the next Presidential election. Our son may live in a pig sty of a room and think fruit snacks are nutritional, but, by God, he might just make a real contribution to society after all! Finally, and this one didn’t land until I glanced in my rearview mirror and saw Geoffrey behind the wheel of his grandfather’s Ford Explorer, I felt abject terror. I had just consented to giving a teenage boy the power to kill not only himself, but everyone in the northern Indianapolis suburbs. [Insert emphatic cussing here.] True, his provisional license places limits on when he can drive (not between the hours of 10 p.m. and 5 a.m.) and on his passengers (no friends for another six months), but still, he can now cause, and be the victim of, both minor fender benders and horrific car accidents. Even worse? There’s not a single thing I can do about it. The last thread of parental protection has been cut, and my 6’2” baby is on his own! Raising children is hard, but wading through the emotions of watching them grow is even harder. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist.

Reasons I’ll miss Letterman Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

10. The monologue. Unlike other hosts, David Letterman is quick to admit when one of his jokes has bombed, a technique he learned from Johnny Carson. But here’s another difference in late-night monologue humor style: for Jimmy Fallon in particular, virtually every punchline is followed by additional commentary, attempting to reinforce the joke. Letterman’s zinger is over when it’s over, except for the host’s mugging to the audience. Which approach is better? Well, if you were a Jack Benny fan like I was, you’d know the answer. 9. Fun facts (a segment they have discontinued). Based on the fictitious Federal Bureau of Miscellaneous Information, the sketches began with some relatively obscure-but-legitimate facts to set up the premise, but then we got gems like this: • Orville Wright was the first person to return his seat to the upright and locked position. • The recent space probe to Mars found no water, but rather traces of Diet Sprite. • When Thomas’ English Muffins were invented there were only nooks. The cran-

nies came years later. 8. The opening joke. It’s usually an “inside” joke that only the people in the studio audience understand because Dave came out earlier to interact with the crowd and find someone to poke fun at. There’s no logical reason this should work, but it always does. The audience laughter is infectious and viewers want to get in on the fun. 7. Paul Shaffer. I don’t know enough about music to judge how good a bandleader he is, but I think his sidekick role has been underappreciated. Paul provides the perfect background commentary to Dave’s rants and observations, often simply reiterating or confirming what Dave has said with a perfectly pitched mocked sincerity. Oh, and Paul has worn a different wild suit or sport coat every night for over 30 years. I’ll miss that, too. (For the rest of this Top Ten list including the number one reason Dick will miss Dave, go to www.currentinwestfield.com)

Small scale: how anyone, anywhere can grill great food Commentary by Sam Elliott

hamburger sliders

My inner Ron Swanson has never given up on finding a way to grill. Growing up in the suburbs with parents who both cooked regularly, I took grilling out for granted. Because when you move out and can’t grill as outdoor living regularly, you’re driven to find a solution. College life introduces you to the George Foreman style of things. But I like to think that Swanson – the meat-loving all-American legend of television’s late “Parks and Recreation” – would be proud of my adaptability and creativity when it comes to cooking raw meat over an open flame. Even city slickers can easily get in on the grilling greatness. Experience has taught me that there’s a grilling option for any size outdoor space. One of my young adulthood’s homes in the city included a small rectangular patch of outdoor concrete no longer than six feet on any side. But limited space shouldn’t limit your outdoor cooking experience. The best options for small-scale grilling include the smallest of charcoal grills or portable camping propane options. Not having access to a full-size kitchen or grill doesn’t mean you don’t have access to an incredible grilled meal. And you know what’s great to cook on small grills? Small things.

Ditch the big burger patties for individualized, customizable sliders served on smaller dinner rolls for buns – also grilled, of course. Tip: To make your own small-size burger buns, use a quick biscuit mix, but instead of water use plain yogurt in the mix. Roll into small balls, bake at 350 degrees and serve topped with mini burgers and toppings.

Soaked shrimp

Shark steaks

Marinate shrimp a concoction of lemon juice, lime juice, salt and pepper overnight or at least for a few hours before cooking. Or you could use Italian dressing. Or barbeque sauce. Or hot sauce. You get the idea. It’s a super easy and effective way to add some solid flavoring to your meat before you grill. Pair with: Sesame Rice and a glass of Chardonnay. For the rice recipe, visit currentnightandday.com. Ingredients: Fresh garlic, cayenne pepper, fresh shrimp, paprika, olive oil, salt and lemon juice. Directions: 1. Preheat grill for medium

heat. 2. In a small bowl, crush the garlic with the salt. Mix in cayenne pepper and paprika, and then stir in olive oil and lemon juice to

form a paste. 3. Lightly oil grill grate. Cook shrimp for two to three minutes per side, or until opaque.

Regardless of how you felt at the end of “Jaws” – or any of the forgettable cash-grab sequels that followed – you’ll find shark steak to be delicious and unlike your typical seafood fishy eating experiences. Shark steaks come pre-cut smaller than beef steaks, but are just as delicious. An overnight stay in a Ziploc bag full of Italian dressing really does wonders for the steaks, adding an enjoyable supporting cast of flavor but still allowing the natural taste of the shark meat to come through the grilling experience. Or try the time-tested milk bath recipe. Pair with: A glass of Pinoit Grigio. Ingredients: two, eight-ounce shark steaks, two cups of milk, one tablespoon lemon juice, sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Directions: 1. Place the shark steaks in a shallow dish and pour

milk over them to cover. Let stand for 2 hours, or refrigerate overnight. 2. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Remove the shark steaks from the pan and pat dry. Discard leftover milk. Season the

steaks with lemon juice, sea salt and pepper. 3. Grill the steaks until meat is firm, about 15 minutes, turning once. Fish should appear white all the way through.

Lugwig named medical director

Dispatches

news@currentinwestfield.com

The leadership of Indiana University Health’s North Central Region (including IU Health North, Saxony and Tipton hospitals) is pleased to announce the appointment women’s health of Kandice Ludwig, MD, as the Medical Director of the region’s Breast Care Program. Dr. Ludwig will take the place of Patricia Rae Kennedy, MD, FACS, who recently accepted a position in her home state of New York to be nearer to her family. “We are sad to see Dr. Kennedy go, but we know she is leaving our Breast Care Program in very capable hands with Dr. Ludwig,” said Jonathan R. Goble, president and CEO of IU Health’s North Central Region. “Since joining IU Health five years ago, Dr. Ludwig has practiced at both IU Simon Cancer Center and IU Health North and Ludwig has been a shining example of the quality care and expertise that our patients have come to expect at our hospitals. We’re so excited she has accepted this new position in our region, and we look forward to her leadership.” Dr. Ludwig attended medical school at Louisiana State University School of Medicine, completed her surgical training at Texas A&M University, and went on to complete her breast surgery fellowship at the University of Michigan. In her new role, she will practice at both IU Health North and Saxony Hospitals.

Shoulder pain seminar – Riverview Health will host a shoulder pain seminar from 6 to 7 p.m. June 3 at the Carmel Renaissance Hotel, 11925 N. Meridian St. Topics include shoulder injuries, such as rotator cuff tears, shoulder arthritis, frozen shoulder and shoulder replacements. A light dinner will be served. The program is free, but registration is required. Register at www.riverview.org/classes or call 776-7999.

Energy drink dangers – Maybe you like to reach for an energy drink when you need a boost. The combination of taurine, caffeine and sugar really can wake you up. Unfortunately, researchers believe that this unique blend of stimulants can lead to serious heart problems including heart attack, stroke and heart disease. The drinks have even been banned in several countries. Source: Naturalon.com

Blood drive – The Indiana Blood Center Bloodmobile will be on-site in front of the Riverview Health Surgery Pavilion from 2 to 6 p.m. June 9. Everyone who visits the bloodmobile will receive a free Gigi’s cupcake. For more information, call the Indiana Blood Center at 916-5150.

Myopia treatment – Historically, the only treatments for nearsightedness were glasses or contacts, and, more recently, eye surgery. Now, a newer treatment is catching on. The treatment involves a specialized mold designed to reshape the eye surface during sleep to slow or stop eye growth. For more information on this treatment, call Wittmann 20/20 Family Eye Center at 843-2020.

Longevity – People who live 100 years or more have several things in common including: 1. Eat small portions and eat several times a day 2. Drink only in moderation 3. Don’t act your age – in other words, don’t let your age stop you from doing something 4. Exercise – even beginning later in life has benefits 5. Stay connected with friends and family. Isolation tends to shorten life span. Source: Naturalon.com

Health fair – While you’re out shopping for your local produce at the Noblesville Farmers Market, be sure to stop by the Riverview Health booth from 8 a.m. to noon May 30 for the latest information on our health providers and upcoming events. While you’re at it, you can get your blood pressure checked for free!

Call your mom to beat stress – Mom might not be the first person you think of if you want to decrease your anxiety and stress. But while she might nag you from time to time, she also might be the best person to call if you need a little TLC. A study published in Proceedings B by researchers from the University of Wisconsin Madison showed that a 15-minute call to mom helps with stress.

Slow down for your best run – A study by University of Ottawa researchers Bradley Young and John Samela found that paying attention to pace is what separated the successful runners from the others.

Duke Energy sees increased customer reports of scammers

By Alec Johnson • news@currentinwestfield.com Duke Energy Indiana customers are warned to be vigilant after an increase in customer reports of a utility consumer alert bill payment scam. The scam works when an individual, who claims to be a Duke Energy employee, makes an unsolicited phone call to a customer and claims that their service will be disconnected unless the customer makes an immediate payment, usually within an hour. The caller then tells the customer to buy a prepaid debit card, which is widely available at retail stores, and instructs the customer to call back to supposedly pay Duke Energy. Once the call back is made, the caller asks for the prepaid debit card’s receipt number and PIN number, giving them access to the funds on the card and the ability to drain its balance. Duke Energy Indiana spokesman Lew Middleton said it’s important for customers to understand that a legitimate Duke Energy employee would never ask or require customers with delinquent accounts to buy prepaid debit cards to prevent service disconnection. According to its website, Duke Energy states

payments can also be made online, by phone, by automatic bank draft, by mail or in person. “We give people advance disconnect notification with their regular monthly billing. We never give a notification just one hour before disconnection,” Middleton said. Another scam that Duke Energy’s website mentions is a third-party payment scam. Callers claiming to be Duke Energy employees are telling customers that they can pay customers’ account balances for a cash fee. The site goes on to say that no one from Duke Energy will ever offer to pay those balances in exchange for a fee. The only fees charged by Duke, according to its website, are convenience fees for payments using the automated phone system and one-time payments made through the website. They do not charge customers extra fees for paying bills by mail, at authorized pay locations or through online banking services. More information about the scams can be found at this link, or by calling Duke Energy directly at 1-800-521-2232. The number can also be called to verify whether someone is a legitimate Duke Energy employee. They advise customers to call police immediately if they think the person is an imposter.

The Torre del Oro (“Tower of Gold”) reflects an era in which Seville, Spain, became the economic and cultural center of Europe. The source of the tower’s alluring travel name remains a mystery. Seville lies along the Guadalquivir River about 50 miles upstream from the Atlantic Ocean. By the thirteenth century, Seville was one of the most important cities in the Andalusia region of southern Spain. In about 1222, the Almohads, an Islamic dynasty controlling Andalusia, built the Torre del Oro aside the river to protect the city against attack from Christian forces of the Reconquista (“Recapture”). The tower comprised a lower section in the form of a regular dodecahedron and an upper octagonal section made of brick. A large chain stretched from Torre del Oro to another tower across the river, lashing together a series of pontoons and creating a floating barrier to prevent attacking ships from entering the city. The plan failed. In 1248,

forces under Ferdinand III of Castile smashed through the barrier, captured Seville and converted the tower to a chapel and then a prison. Seville continued to grow and prosper under Christian control. After Christopher Columbus claimed the New World for the House of Castile, the port of Seville adjacent the Torre del Oro obtained a commission to handle all trade with the Spanish colonies. By the sixteenth century, Seville, with a population of up to one million people, was one of largest cities in the world, with Europe’s second largest cathedral. Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan left from the Torre del Oro in 1519 for what became the first voyage around the world. A circular third level was added to the tower in 1769.

Benefits of multi-tasking pergolas Commentary by Randy Sorrell This rich mocha stained pergola is packed with responsibility! Its primary function, as with most pergolas, is prooutdoor living viding dappled shade in an overly exposed sunny spot. And while the size of the pictured pergola is somewhat abbreviated, it successfully accomplishes this mission around the massive grill station and stone counter. Our guests (yes, it’s my home) are often amused as to how much relief it provides from the blazing sun. MULTI-TASKING We often design / build pergolas as a visual block or to enhance privacy. The beautiful, yet abrasively close, neighbors’ home and basketball goal is quietly minimized with the beams and overhead units of the structure. Often, we will plant a non-invasive wisteria or flowering clematis to romantically consume portions of the pergola for an old-world feel. A primary element of creating an “outdoor room” is establishing the sensation of a roof structure. The heavy canopy of an existing shade tree or several ornamental serviceberry or redbud trees freshly planted around the patio can accomplish this. This home has the benefit of each, coupled with the strategically

The mocha-colored pergola can serve many purposes. (Submitted photo)

placed pergola. Importantly, it serves to visually pull in the space and offer a sense of intimacy. Notice the outdoor commercial grade party lights stretching through it and the two rescued outdoor coach lamps that have been stripped and repurposed into candle chandeliers. The potted herbs add colorful drama to an otherwise stale oversized grill counter and show signs of being snipped repeatedly with ambitious grilling habits. SHADE As summer heat invades outdoor living,

most of us run for cover from direct sun exposure. Pergolas are one of our favorite and most affective tools to offer relieve. They are packed with ambiance, are skilled at multitasking and handle the thrilling responsibility well. Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel home improvement firm.
