Presentation offers information about eclipse science, safety and photography

By Leila Kheiry leila@youarecurrent.com Rick Galloway of the Indiana Astronomical Society wears his science-enthusiast colors with pride.

ASTRONOMY Sporting a T-shirt that stated, “Indiana is on the path to be totaled,” Galloway recently led a presentation at the Fort Harrison State Park Inn that focused on the upcoming April 8 total solar eclipse. Central Indiana is directly in the eclipse’s path of totality.

Galloway started with a funny story about his shirt.

“Last October, my wife and I were driving down to Florida for fall break and we stopped at a gas station in Tennessee,” he said. “I went inside to get a cola or something to drink. And the lady behind the counter was ringing it up. She looks at (my shirt) and she looks at me (and said), ‘Is there something bad that’s going to happen in Indiana?’”

Nope — it’s good, and very, very cool. A little after 3 p.m. April 8, people in central Indiana will experience a total eclipse, something that hasn’t happened in this area for more than 800 years.

But what is an eclipse, and how does it occur?

“In its simplest, simplest terms, … what it does is, the moon lines up directly (between) the sun (and Earth) and puts a shadow onto the Earth,” Galloway said. “Simplest thing, but astronomically, it’s a very difficult thing to be able to do.”

That’s because the moon has an elliptical and angled orbit, so the lining-up part doesn’t happen very often, at least not over any specific spot.

“On average, somewhere on Earth about every year and a half, 18 months, we’ll have a total eclipse,” Galloway said. “The problem is, many times they’re out over the ocean — no way to go see it. So, having this thing come through the middle of Indiana is extraordinarily rare. And this is just so cool.

This is so amazing.”

The upcoming eclipse also coincides with a predicted uptick in solar activity, Galloway said, which means that when the eclipse reaches totality — a complete covering of the sun by the moon — the corona, or outer atmosphere of the sun, likely will be even more spectacular.

When the eclipse has reached totality — and only at that time — Galloway said it is safe to remove special eclipse-viewing glasses. It’s a brief window of time, though, because as soon as totality starts to wane, the glasses need to go back on. He recommends getting special viewing glasses sooner rather than later.

“Being able to get these things online is getting more and more difficult,” he said, stressing that the eclipse safety glasses must be ISO certified, and there is no substitute. “Sunglasses, no. Welders glasses, no. I had one kid at a high school presentation, he says, ‘Well, what happens if I put on 18 pairs of sunglasses?’ Still no. Certified is the way to go.”

Looking directly at the sun before or after totality can cause severe eye damage.

Galloway said that when using binoculars, telescopes or any kind of camera, an ISO-certified filter lens made from the same material as the glasses must be placed on

the front exterior lens, even if you’re wearing safety glasses while looking through it. A filter not only protects the eyes, it protects digital cameras, including phone cameras, from expensive damage.

Photographing a solar eclipse can be challenging. Galloway, who is a photographer, said a digital camera with a zoom lens can work well — just remember to remove the filter once totality is reached and then put it back on when totality starts to wane.

For those with phone cameras, he recommends a filter, of course (you can take apart a spare pair of safety glasses and tape one of the filters over the lens), along with a small tripod to keep the phone steady and an app called Solar Snap. The app manufacturer sells a kit to help with cell-phone eclipse photography, but the app itself is free and provides simple guidance to inexperienced photographers about how best to get a shot of the eclipse.

Galloway said several times that the weather on April 8 will be perfect, with no clouds for miles. But, he admitted, there’s actually only about a 40 percent chance of clear skies that day.

“This is what keeps me up at night,” he said. “This is what wakes me up in the middle of the night and makes me have night sweats.”

Galloway said he has four weather apps on his phone, and he won’t decide until a few days before the eclipse where he’ll go for optimal viewing, based on what those apps predict. If it is overcast that day, he said people in central Indiana will still see something. It won’t be nearly as cool as it could be, though.

“Things will just get darker and darker and darker,” he said. “So, remember, it’s going to be hundreds of miles from the nearest cloud on that day, beautiful, bright, sunny, 62 degrees.”

Fingers crossed.

The first reading of a proposed residential development intended to complement additional commercial DEVELOPMENT and retail projects in the city’s historic downtown was held before the Westfield City Council this month.

An amendment to the Towns at Union Planned Unit Development was introduced during the council’s regular meeting Feb. 12. The PUD was first created in 2022.

Upgrades coming to Simon Moon news@youarecurrent.com The City of Westfield will invest $6.8 million for expansions at Simon Moon Park, with upgrades slated to begin PARKS this spring.

The park will undergo expansion to add to the facilities, including a larger parking lot, an outdoor education classroom, fishing piers, boardwalks, an updated playground and a reengineered sledding hill. The expansion will also turn the old wastewater treatment lagoons, which have been properly cleaned and converted, into recreation ponds.

Construction will be completed by Norcon, Inc., of Indianapolis, which submitted the winning bid for the project. The $6.8 million price tag is below the original engineering estimate of $8.2 million.

The expansion, along with upgrades made to the neighboring Newby property, will be paid for via park impact fees.

They are one-time fees assessed on new residential properties constructed within Westfield. The updates will not require taxpayer funds or bonds, according to the city.

Guerin Catholic junior Cardinal gets boost from basketball pedigree

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Although he played basketball, football and lacrosse through his freshman year at Guerin Catholic High School, it seemed a given that Bryson Cardinal would eventually concentrate on basketball.

After all, his father, Brian Cardinal, was a Purdue University standCardinal out who played 12 seasons in the NBA, and his mother, Danielle (Bird) Cardinal, was a Purdue women’s basketball player and is now Guerin’s girls basketball coach.

“I consulted my coaches and my parents just about what was going to be best for me for my sophomore year, and I decided to play AAU, which I think really helped me to develop as a basketball player,” said Bryson, now a junior. “On that team, I played a lot of the perimeter, so I think that really helped me this year to understand where I can get shots from, whether it’s dribble pull-ups or setting a good screen

for someone to slip in, and not just playing that inside guy, the center.”

It wasn’t an easy decision for the Westfield resident, because he played lacrosse for several years and enjoyed it.

“But I started to realize that playing college basketball was really my dream of my future,” Bryson said, Entering the Class 3A sectional opener against Indianapolis Herron Feb. 27, Bryson, who is nearly 6-foot-8, is averaging 13.5

points and eight rebounds per game for the Golden Eagles (17-7). That’s more than double last season’s scoring average of 6.1.

“His offense has really improved,” Guerin Catholic coach Bob Allen said. “He can score from inside and out and he is another player that our opponents have to prepare

for. At times, he commands a double team, which is helping some of our other guys to get open looks.”

Allen said Bryson’s game is similar to his father’s.

“Like his father, he is an ultimate competitor,” Allen said. “He wants to win, and he understands the importance of every play, which is why he isn’t afraid to dive for a loose ball or take a charge in a crunchtime situation.”

Allen said his play has definitely attracted interest from NCAA Division I coaches.

“There is no doubt in my mind that he can play at the next level, and he will continue to improve every day,” Allen said.

Like his father, Bryson said his play sometimes irritates opposing teams and fans.

“There’s been a couple of games this season where I’ve had parents yelling at me and coaches yelling at me just because I like to do the dirty work,” he said. “I like to dive on the floor. I like to take the charges.

One of my favorite things is guarding one of their bigger or better players and just try to get in their head and being a good hard-nosed player.”

LOVE FOR LEARNING Shamrock Springs student qualifies for national academic competition

By Marney Simon marney@youarecurrent.com Anant Kamath has a curious mind.

A third-grader at Shamrock Springs Elementary, Anant, 9, spends much of his free time focused on academics. But to him, it’s not studying. It’s just fun.

“I like science,” Anant said. “I like knowing what things are made of, and I like knowing how things work. I like graphic novels, and I like when books are organized. If there is a book about animals, I like it if it says how tall the animals are, how heavy they are for every single animal.”

On Feb. 3, Anant applied his love of learning at the International Academic Competitions Science Bee and Geography Bee regional tournaments at Westfield Middle School.

Not only did he qualify for nationals in both, but he was also the champion in the Science Bee. “There is this exam online, so you do the exam, and if you get enough questions right you qualify for the regionals,” Anant said. “You go into a room and there are buzzers, and they start reading these paragraph questions. It narrows it down as the question goes, and if someone thinks they know the answer, they can buzz in and say the answer they think it is. If it’s correct, then they get a point.”

IAC was founded in 2010 by former “Jeopardy!” champion David Madden as an academic competition focused on history, geography, science and other academic disciplines for students in the New York City metropolitan area.

IAC has since grown into an international tournament with participation from students in more than 50 countries.

Anant’s mother, Surbhi Jagotta, said he has always been scientifically inclined.

“Even long before kindergarten, when he was 2 or 3 years old, he used to watch learning videos, what are the different elements, what are the states of the United States, what are different counties in the state?” Jagotta said. “Space, the planets, so he already had an inclination toward watching those kinds of videos.”

His parents said he also loved to learn about animals, the food chain and space.

“He loves reading a lot, and it increases his curiosity to read about things because he likes to read about many facts,” Jagotta added.

Anant is interested in the IAC’s History Bee as well but said it’s a tough competition. His parents agreed, noting that the questions are challenging even for adults.

“I practice with him a lot and the questions are definitely not elementary level,” Jagotta said. “For him, we said to just focus on one for now. Even for geography, I don’t know half of those questions. I love geography but I don’t know a lot of those questions because it’s not just geography, it’s complete social studies and cultural history.”

Anant’s father Subu Kamath said the family works to support his love of learning.

“We just try to feed into his inquisitiveness,” Kamath said.

Outside of school, Anant is on the robotics team, plays piano and enjoys games.

“I like playing board games and card games, like Uno and Sleeping Queens and War,” he said, adding that he also likes puzzle games, dice games and brain teasers.

Anant wants to grow academically.

“I like that we’re talking about World War II, the world wars in history, and we’re starting to get into a lot more topics that we weren’t covering before,” Anant said. “I think I want to take some different language classes, and then some classes about science. I also like math. I like all the different numbers and equations and stuff. It’s like it burns my brain when there are all these different equations. Most of the regular math I’m seeing isn’t too

hard, but sometimes when I see those complex equations, sometimes it gets tough.”

This is the second year Anant has qualified for IAC nationals, which take place Memorial Day weekend in Orlando.

“I’m looking forward to going to the theme parks in Orlando,” Anant said. “I’m going to be excited for the souvenirs as well.”

Going on the ‘permanent record’ Commentary by Terry Anker In the days before the internet, it was a lot easier to forget our past transgressions.

As a student in school at the ESSAY time, we’d be warned if our misbehavior was escalating to the level of the ever-feared “permanent record.” Although it was unclear to most of us what it was, we knew for certain that it must have been critically important to our prospects in life. To have a stain upon it, no matter how trivial, would undoubtedly ruin all hope of prosperity. Undoubtedly, future generations, even our grandchildren, would be dismayed to learn of our delinquency.

As it turned out, it is not entirely certain what this dreaded logbook was. Perhaps it was like Santa’s naughty list — more of a tool for coercion than an actual database.

Or maybe it was some dark web force secretly controlling our destinies. Would we have gotten that dream job if only we’d not been caught throwing tater tots in the middle school cafeteria? Regardless, since the advent of social media, everything we’ve done, at least that we or some other

person has posted, is there eternally for all to see. The fun that could have been a bit too much at our brother’s wedding will now be seen by the manager considering us for promotion.

Recently, Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita launched a website aimed at allowing parents to post concerns about their children’s schools. In turn, the administrators can rebut or address these complaints.

Can transparency improve civility, or will allegations of past indiscretions wrongly imply current problems? Should the out-ofcontext claims be expunged, or does it all go onto the “permanent record?” Can any group look to supposed past transgressions to prove present grievances? And do we have the right to cleanse our own former decisions holding that we are now enlightened?

I have a mild head cold that I’m 100 percent certain came from HUMOR my husband Doo because he insisted on breathing — breathing — at night in our bed. The audacity of the man. Anyhoo, just as he was perking up, I started to go downhill. Sneezing, headache, congestion, the works. Of course, no fever, so I can’t garner any real sympathy, but still. I’m going to take a moment to wallow in my misery.

Because besides not feeling great and consequently sleeping like poo on fire, I’m missing out on what was supposed to be a glorious commitment-free weekend. I’d planned to do a little post-birthday shopping, get caught up on grading papers, maybe even waste a few hours searching online for my dream Tuscany farmhouse situated perfectly between a small hamlet and a train line. Instead, I’m plopped on the couch, nose raw from the off-brand tissue I insisted on buying to save a stupid 13 cents, and slightly loopy from a Benadryl-Dayquil combo that, in retrospect, I’m deeply regret-

ting. The sunshine is aggressively mocking me, and Doo keeps tiptoeing around, not exactly sure what is happening.

I’ll tell you what’s happening. I’m losing my gosh darn mind. I hate being incapacitated, especially when there isn’t anything I can do and I don’t have football or F1 to distract me (the NBA is dumb and college basketball is dead to me this year. RIP, Louisville). I know the drill — fluids, rest, chicken noodle whatever — but I just want to be well again. For the love!

So waah, waah, waah! I’m sick. Peace out.

When I retired from television three years ago, I hoped to relax and have nothing to do.

HUMOR But I did have stuff to do.

Lots of stuff. I was busier than ever. So, I decided last week that I would set out a day where I had absolutely nothing to do. Zero. Nada. That was my goal.

Today looks good. I have nothing to do.

Absolutely nothing. I don’t know where to put myself. But putting myself somewhere is doing something, so I better be careful.

I am home now. I am two weeks ahead on my humor column. No bills to pay. We have no dog to walk. All my laundry has been folded and put away. I think I’ve done it. But I am a little bored.

You might say, “Dick, why don’t you read a book or watch a movie on TV?” But then I am doing something. That’s been my way of avoiding what needs to get done. If I read a book when I have nothing to do, what will I do when I really have to do something, and I don’t want to? I’m losing you, aren’t I? Don’t stop reading now. Do you have anything better to do?

I’ll call one of my busiest friends. I know he’ll be jealous.

“Bob, it’s Dick. What are you doing?”

“Nothing, what about you?”

“Hey, that’s exactly what I’m doing.”

“Dick, when I say nothing, I don’t really mean nothing. I’m paying some bills, shopping online, laundry.”

“You call that nothing? That’s a lot of something. Don’t you know anything about nothing? I am really doing nothing. I mean absolutely nothing.”

“Do you want to come over here and do something together?”

“No, Bob, that’s the whole point. I don’t want to have anything to do with you.”

“Well, you don’t have to get nasty about it.”

I tried another friend …

“I am two weeks ahead on my humor column.

No bills to pay. We have no dog to walk. All my laundry has been folded and put away. I think I’ve done it. But I am a little bored.”

– DICK WOLFSIE “Mikki, it’s Dick. Guess what? I have nothing to do.”

“So, take a nap.”

“A nap? You consider a nap nothing? A good nap is a commitment. A nap is not nothing. Trust me. If I were sleepy right now, a nap would be something to do. Geez, can’t I find one friend who knows something about nothing?”

I called my wife. I decided to rub it in.

“Mary Ellen, I wanted you to know I am home right now and I have absolutely nothing to do.”

“You’re home in a house that has burnedout light bulbs, a broken smoke detector, a dishwasher to be unloaded and a dirty litter box … and you say you have nothing to do?

I’m glad you called. Get moving, time to get things done.”

Boy, did that backfire. Now, I have like four things to do. I guess I better get started. I have nothing else to do.

Veteran actress-singer Purl set for Feinstein’s show

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Linda Purl has had her share of recognizable TV roles through the years.

She portrayed Fonzie’s girlMUSIC friend on “Happy Days,” Ben Matlock’s daughter on the first season of “Matlock” and Pam Beesly’s mother on “The Office.

“I feel lucky to be a journeyman actress and have been active through different decades of my life,” said Purl, who also sings and will perform at 7:30 p.m. March 7 at Feinstein’s at Hotel Carmichael in Carmel Purl, 68, said “The Office” attracted a new generation of viewers.

“I gained temporary coolness with my son,” she said. “It’s fun to go around the country and perform because you meet people who have enjoyed those shows.”

Purl said the show is based on her 2023 album, “This Could Be The Start.”

“It’s very joyful to be in the intimate setting (that) cabaret is,” Purl said. “It’s a special, jeweled treasure-box art form. To be in a smaller room and do these beautiful songs with a group of strangers and virtually embrace at the end of the evening and go back to your lives (is special).”

Purl will be accompanied in the concert by her music director, Tedd Firth.

“He’s a phenomenal jazz pianist,” she said. “We’ve been working together for years. It’s all (material) from the Great American Songbook, which is one of the many reasons why we absolutely worship Michael Feinstein, because he has really single-handedly created this space for the Great American Songbook to thrive in and to keep it alive. One of the many reasons that appeals to me is that, more than other eras of music, they are short stories. So, as an actress and a singer, that very much appeals to me. There’s always a beginning, middle and end. There’s a journey and a character behind the voice in the song.”

The songs were a way for people to heal after World War II and the Korean War, Purl said.

‘BEAUTIFUL” Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre presents “Beautiful — The Carole King Musical” through March 30 at the Indianapolis venue.

“There were great fissures in their lives that they needed to massage and work through,” she said. “They articulate the human spirit with such depth and such poetry, and the music’s not bad, too. They touch on timeless themes and there’s also, as I’ve learned through Tedd, there’s such an elasticity in the songs. You can do them straightforwardly. You can put them into a jazz feel, and they work. These songs can time travel for different eras and different tastes.”

One of her favorites is “I’m in the Mood for Love.”

“It’s engaging, it’s inviting,” Purl said.

“It’s fun to be able to share that moment thematically with an audience. It’s a wellknown tune, but Tedd just has an unusual treatment of it.”

Eight years after appearing as Richie’s date, Gloria, in Season 2 of “Happy Days,” Purl returned in a regular role as a new character in Season 10.

Purl and her boyfriend, Patrick Duffy, have recurring roles on “The Bold and the Beautiful.” Duffy is best known as Bobby Ewing on “Dallas.”

Duffy and Purl have a business called Duffy’s Dough.

“It’s been a big adventure for us with a huge learning curve,” Purl said. “Patrick has

had a sourdough starter in his family for over 70 years and Patrick is a wonderful baker. At one point, he said I should start a business with this, and I said, ‘Yes, of course.’”

They reached out to business friends, who advised the couple on a simple model.

“They said they just start doing it all in one kit, so when people receive the package, they have the sugar, the flour, the rolling pins, the recipes and the aprons to get started,” she said.

Purl said they were advised to start with 200 packages and see if they sold.

“We had a packing party and launched in September 2022 and hoped they would sell

by Christmas, and they all sold by noon of our first day,” Purl said. “It was great but terrifying news because we had to make a bunch more packages. It’s been going strong ever since.”

All net proceeds go to food scarcity charities.

“That’s our end game,” Purl said. “At this point in our lives, we want to be celebrating with gratitude the fortune that we’ve had, and we want to be part of giving back on a regular basis.”

CHS grad advances on ‘Idol’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The third time Meggie Iyer tried out for “American Idol,” she finally got an opportunity to audition for PERFORMANCE celebrity judges. She certainly made the most of it.

The 2023 Carmel High School graduate earned a ticket to the Hollywood portion of the show with a cover of Bonnie Raitt’s “I Can’t Make You Love Me.” Judges Lionel Richie, Luke Bryan and Katy Perry each gave thumbs up to Iyer’s performance, with Perry declaring she was Top Ten material.

Iyer was featured Feb. 18 on the Season 22 premiere.

“I’ve been dreaming about going on ‘American Idol’ for practically my entire life,” the Indiana University freshman said. “I grew up watching the show. So, it was really a dream come true to be able to audition on such an amazing, well-known stage. I felt like I wasn’t expecting as good of a reaction as I got from the judges. So, when I got such an amazing reaction, I felt really shocked and I was so excited.”

The audition was in Leesburg, Ga., Bryan’s hometown.

Iyer was emotional when she saw the judges’ reaction.

“When Katy Perry started to stand up and clap. I think it was a huge, huge moment for me,” Iyer said. “I immediately started crying, and then when Lionel and Luke followed, I about lost it, like I was so surprised and excited to have gotten that reaction from them.”

Iyer said she is excited for friends and family to see her progress.

“I want everyone to see my musicality as they follow along with the process,” she said.

Studdard returns as ‘The Cat’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com There are good reasons why Jonathan Studdard is in the title role in Civic Theatre’s production of “The Cat in PLAY the Hat” for the fifth time.

“He is fearless and will try anything,” said Anne Beck, who directs the annual performances. “He is playful. His smile and giggle are infectious. He would prefer not to carry the big red box with Thing 1 and Thing 2 in it — but he knows how much fun kids will have with Thing 1 and 2 that he does it for them.”

“The Cat in the Hat” is set for public performances at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. March 2 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. Performances for school children begin Feb. 27.

Studdard always enjoys performing the role.

“It is so thrilling to find new moments to breathe life into the show,” Studdard said.

“It doesn’t get old because it’s always the best feeling to hear and see the kids having so much fun. The show is very specific in the way we present it, so there is not

much room for deviating away from our model. But there are small moments that we can breathe new things into the show.”

Beck said the show is fun to direct.

“It is organized mischief and chaos,” Beck said. “The actors do so much physically and mentally with thousands of sound cues.”

The Pyramids of Giza outside of Cairo. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Visiting the Pyramids of Giza Commentary by Don Knebel In our continuing visit to Egypt, we stop by the famous pyramids on the Giza Plateau above Cairo.

TRAVEL The Giza pyramids were built as tombs for three consecutive pharaohs — Khufu, Khafre and Menkaure — who ruled Egypt between 2589 B.C. and 2504 B.C. Scholars believe paid workers, including farmers during annual Nile River flooding, built the pyramids. Khufu’s pyramid, the earliest and largest, is often called the Great Pyramid, the only surviving “wonder” of the ancient world. It was originally 481 feet tall, making it the tallest thing made by man for almost 4,000 years. The Great Pyramid, built between about 2589 B.C. to 2566 B.C., was constructed from 2.3 million stone blocks, weighing an average of 2 1/2 tons each. If those blocks were laid end to end, they would extend more than 2,000 miles. At 92 million cubic feet, Khufu’s pyramid is still the most massive structure ever built. Its alignment varies from true north by less than 3.4-arc minutes, less

than 1 part in 1,000. Its base, the size of 10 football fields, is a perfect square to within 4.6 inches, again less than 1 part per 1,000.

All of this was accomplished when the Egyptians had not yet invented the wheel and had only stone and copper tools.

Khafre’s pyramid is smaller than that of his father but appears larger because of its higher elevation. Its apex still contains the polished white limestone that once covered all the Giza pyramids. The Great Sphinx, about a mile east of Khafre’s pyramid, lies in the quarry from which workers mined limestone for that pyramid. Scholars believe its damaged face is that of Khafre. The pyramid of Menkaure is by far the smallest of the Giza pyramids, rising only to about 215 feet, less than half the height of Khufu’s Great Pyramid.
