Westfield High School brings “Seussical the Musical” to the stage / P15
Comment period open for second draft of diploma proposal / P3
Engineering contract approved for Park Street / P7
Westfield Fire Department Station 84 awaiting final costs / P9
The comment period is open through Nov. 8 on the second draft of the Indiana Department of Education’s proposal to redesign diplomas for Hoosier high school students starting with the Class of 2029.
The revised proposal reflects public feedback of the first draft, according to a news release from IDOE.
The release of the second draft Oct. 11 was accompanied by a statutorily-required public comment period. Parents, educators, community members and other stakeholders can provide written feedback online. The comment period will close Nov. 8. Feedback will be reviewed prior to publication of the final draft.
An initial draft of the new diploma rule was first presented in March. That draft received more than 8,000 online comments and hours of testimony from residents across the state. The IDOE stated that feedback centered on the need to balance flexibility and student choice while ensuring a well rounded education; ensuring diploma requirements are rigorous and attainable and prepare every student for success regardless of their post-high school plans; elevating the importance of experiential learning opportunities; and providing sufficient resources needed for school corporations to implement the work statewide.
While the first draft proposal included two diploma options, the revised proposal includes one base diploma with minimum requirements for every student, as well as the opportunity for students to earn readiness seals aligned with their unique path. The proposed base diploma includes increased flexibility and course options for earning credits in core content areas, such as English, math, science, social studies, physical education and health, according to the IDOE. In addition to core content areas, students will take personalized
electives which can include a variety of courses, such as career and technical education, performing or fine arts and/or world languages.
Students will have the option to earn readiness seals in enrollment, employment and/or enlistment. The readiness seals were developed to provide students and parents with a better understanding of a blueprint for success in whatever path a student may choose.
Seals will be available at two levels of readiness — honors and honors plus.
Enrollment seals were developed by the Indiana Commission for Higher Education, in conjunction with colleges and universities.
Employment seals were developed with the Indiana Chamber of Commerce and insights from Ascend Indiana’s work with employers, in conjunction with the business representatives across multiple industries.
Enlistment seals were developed with the Indiana National Guard, in conjunction with representatives from each military branch and public safety officials.
Veterans Day ceremony – The City of Westfield will host its annual Veterans Day ceremony honoring the service and sacrifice of military members beginning with breakfast at 7:45 a.m. Nov. 11 at the Bridgewater Club. The ceremony begins at 8:30 a.m. and will feature remarks from local veterans including Mayor Scott Willis, keynote
Under the proposal, students who earn a readiness seal will automatically fulfill all graduation pathways requirements.
Indiana’s current graduation requirements will sunset Oct. 1, 2028, making final requirements effective for all students beginning with the class of 2029. As proposed, schools may opt-in beginning with the 2025-26 school year.
Indiana will also continue to offer the federally-required alternate diploma, which is designed for students with the most significant cognitive disabilities.
The IDOE and the State Board of Education will hold a public hearing at 10 a.m. Nov. 8 at the Indiana Government Center South Conference Room B, 402 W Washington St., Indianapolis. The purpose of the hearing is to provide any member of the public an opportunity to share their thoughts and ideas on the diploma rule. All public comments will be shared at the public hearing.

Riverview Health issued a notice Oct. 25 of a recent data security incident that may have affected certain individuals’ protected health information.
The incident resulted from a social engineering attack that led to the compromise of a staff member’s email account.
Riverview discovered that access to one of its staff member’s email accounts had been compromised Aug. 23. An unauthorized individual gained access to the compromised email account as well as certain electronic files.
Upon access to the staff member’s account, Riverview’s security mechanisms promptly identified the threat, and access was terminated in less than one hour from the start of the intrusion.
After further investigation, Riverview confirmed Sept. 3 that the accessible files contained certain protected health infor-
mation, which may have included medical record numbers, admission dates, diagnosis and medical information, names, dates of birth, and sex. No Social Security numbers, financial information or bank account numbers were exposed.
Riverview is notifying the patients whose information may have been exposed. Health system officials believe that because of the limited information contained in the exposed files, the risk of compromise or harm to patients is low.
As required by federal law, Riverview notified the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights.
Riverview patients impacted by this disclosure will be sent letters notifying them of the incident. As a precautionary measure, users are asked to remain vigilant by reviewing suspicious activity related to the use of protected health information.
Patients who have concerns or questions can contact Riverview at 855-2780525 Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Expansion is complete at Copper Trace in Westfield, doubling the size of the senior community by adding 40 new assisted-living apartments.
Senior living management company
CarDon & Associates began the $8.6 million expansion in late 2023 at Copper Trace, 1250 W. 146th St. The project added 37,500 square feet to the main campus to accommodate 27 standard one-bedroom units, six large one-bedroom units and seven two-bedroom residences.

Carmel High School girls soccer player
Olivia Cebalo had a senior season to remember.
Greyhounds coach Frank Dixon said if Carmel had gone farther in the postseason, she would have had a chance to be awarded the Indiana Soccer Coaches Association’s Player of the Year.
“I don’t remember the last time we had a player score 20 goals. That’s hard with the schedule we play. That’s a difficult thing to accomplish,” Dixon said.
Cebalo scored 21 goals for the Greyhounds, who lost last month’s Class 3A regional final to East Central on penalty kicks.
“I think this year I felt a lot more comfortable on the ball and being able to move it around better,” she said. “It did surprise me to have over 20 goals because my other years were only half of that.”
As a junior, Cebalo scored 11 goals. She scored 10 as a sophomore and three as a freshman.
Cebalo, who plans to run track in college, was second in the 400-meter run at the

“She has a lot of speed, and that’s always a really nice thing to have as a soccer player,” Dixon said. “She’s developed her soccer playing ability from that, and now she is a complete player.”

“Everyone was so pumped and ready to play. The bus ride there we were listening to music, and once we got there, all the parents were cheering us on as we came off the bus,” Cebalo said. “It was really an enjoyable moment.”
Cebalo is undecided where she plans to compete in college.
“I did consider playing soccer in college because I have always loved soccer and enjoyed it so much, but I think for me track was the right way to go and try it out,” she said.
Cebalo said a goal she has for the track season is to be on the winning 1,600-meter relay at the state meet.
in the 3A state title game in 2021 and 2022.
“Even though it wasn’t the ending we wanted, I believe it was still a successful end to my soccer career,” Cebalo said. “I grew as a player, thanks to my teammates, and developed valuable skills from my coaches, all while being part of a team I truly loved, so I would consider that all very successful.”

“We had a strong team last year and we have the same girls again this year,” said Cebalo, who also was on the winning 1,600 relay as a sophomore.
Cebalo played club soccer for Carmel FC and then went to Indy Premier but has decided not to continue playing club soccer.

Now that funding has been secured, the City of Westfield is moving forward with preliminary engineering for improvements on Park Street.
The city’s board of public works and safety approved a professional services contract with Rundell Ernstberger & Associates Oct. 23 for professional design services on Park Street between Mill Street and the Westfield Washington Public Library.
The city allocated $6.2 million for the project, including survey, design and construction. The preliminary engineering portion — to include a topographic survey, geotechnical report, preliminary utility coordination and a stormwater master plan — was approved by the board for $210,500.
Westfield Director of Economic Development Jenell Fairman said funding will come from a bond approved by the Westfield City Council in October.
“(The economic development department) will be working with parks department and public works to create upgrades to Park Street from a utility standpoint, drainage standpoint and making sure that we have above-ground utilities buried,” Fairman said. “We’re taking care of stormwater improvements in the area. But most importantly, and what is driving the project, is to create a more aesthetically pleasing and safer environment for pedestrians who are enjoying the Park Street restaurants and trying to park somewhere so they can get to Grand Junction Plaza.”
Fairman said the agreement with Rundell Ernstberger & Associates will include the due diligence needed to understand the costs and scope of utility relocations and any easement or right-of-way acquisitions needed.
Members of the board said the improvements were necessary from a public safety standpoint, particularly near the intersection of Park and Mill streets where street parking only allows for one lane of traffic to move through.
The project design will be based on the existing images provided by the Westfield Economic Development department to include a plaza with curb-less travel lanes and multilane trail segments; gateway plazas; special intersection treatments; connections to adjacent developments; green infrastructure, special pavements; custom lighting; special furnishings; wayfinding signage and trail markers; landscape treatments and irrigation.
A final contract is expected to be ready for approval in early 2025.

Westfield’s Board of Public Works and Safety removed from its agenda Oct. 23 a vote on formalization of terms and conditions for a build-operate-transfer agreement — or BOT — between the City of Westfield and Envoy Construction Services LLC for construction of Westfield Fire Department Station 84.
The BOT was approved in March. Since then, the parties have been working on the establishment of a guaranteed maximum price for the project. Established by state statute, the GMP is the maximum sum the city is responsible to pay for the completion of the project, subject to any change orders.
“A lot of the (agreement) hinges around a GMP, and we’re still working on that,” WFD Chief Rob Gaylor said. “I would say that it’s not complete yet.”
Westfield Director of Economic Development Jenell Fairman said the establishment of the GMP often hinges on the
design process.
“If it’s a 30- to 45-day period from the time the original BOT contract is authorized (until) the time the GMP is set, there’s going to be a lot more risk in that GMP amount,” Fairman said. “If you have authorization for the BOT developer to continue further along within the design and estimating process (then) it might be a six- to nine-month period or longer before you set that guaranteed maximum price. That is usually approved as an
amendment to the original contract.”
Board members said rather than table the item from month-to-month, they wanted to see it removed from consideration until the GMP is set.
The station will serve the U.S. 31 corridor, Grand Park and Chatham Hills. Once complete, the WFD expects the station to reduce response times to those areas by approximately 2 minutes.
Station 84 will be built at 191st Street and Chad Hittle Drive. The two-story, 20,000-square-foot building will include three apparatus bays, living quarters, sleeping quarters and a museum. The station will house up to 12 fire department personnel for 24/7 shifts.
The estimated cost of Station 84 is $11 million. The city also is working on plans to construct Station 85 — a one-story 16,000-square-foot building expected to house up to 10 fire personnel — near Ind. 32 and Centennial Road/W. 31st Street.

The Westfield City Council approved the 2025 municipal budget Oct. 28.
The city civil budget is $124.6 million with an operational budget of $78.5 million, excluding bond payments.
Changes since the budget was first introduced in August include adjustments to tuition reimbursement benefits; a reduction in the clerk-treasurer’s budget of $200,000 in consulting fees; an addition of $10,000 to the clerk-treasurer’s budget for an education and training stipend; an increase in the community development grant fund from $100,000 to $240,000; and an additional $20,000 to the police department budget for equipment.
of the Grand Park master plan; and creation of a marketing package to promote economic development. The tax rate will remain flat.
By state law, the budget must be adopted by Nov. 1. Mayor Scott Willis said the extra time was not a delay, but a way to get to a point where everyone was comfortable.
“We’ve spent the last couple of months going line by line with the council, helping them understand how we came to the numbers we came to,” Willis said. “A lot of thoughtful dialogue (happened) back and forth. (The council and administration) wanted to make sure that we showed grace to each other, and everybody felt comfortable voting on this budget. Whether it was a yes or a no, I didn’t want anybody coming (to the vote) with questions.”
Although the budget accounts for all revenue and expenditures the city anticipates in 2025, Willis said the cash reserves remain strong.
“Our cash reserves are better than any city in Hamilton County, and my gut tells me it’s probably (better than any municipality) in the state of Indiana,” he said. “Fifty-six percent of our budget is sitting in cash reserves. We’re set up well for success. We know we have some fixed costs coming for public safety. We want to make sure we keep those reserves close for future investments.”
Council President Patrick Tamm said Westfield has the 10th-lowest municipal property tax rate in Indiana, at 0.7175. Tamm said although the Department of Local Government Finance frowns upon the city’s total cash reserves, it’s a strategic move as Westfield grows.
Town Hall Meeting – Mayor Scott Willis will host a Town Hall meeting at 7 p.m. Nov. 14 at the Bridgewater Club, 3535 E. 161st St. Residents who would like to see certain topics discussed can email communications@westfield.in.gov.
Book signing at Black Dog Books –Author Joyce Pixley and photographer Maribeth Degyansky will hold a discussion and book signing of their book “Owlvin Wises Up” from 3 to 4:30 p.m. Nov. 17 at Black Dog Books, 115 S. Main St. in Zionsville. “Owlvin Wises Up” tells the story of a horned owl who encounters other animals and learns to feel good about himself. The event is free and light refreshments will be served.
The budget includes additional personnel for the Westfield Police Department and the Westfield Fire Department; mental health initiatives for public safety personnel; $42 million in road improvements, including widening of 191st Street; funding
Willis said the budgeting process was collaborative.
“This is a zero-based budget,” Willis said. “For every dollar that was moved, another dollar was adjusted accordingly. I’m happy to say the budget is balanced and I’m excited about what it’s going to deliver.”
“I just want to make sure that people do understand that we are keeping hardearned tax dollars and not yet putting that to work, but at the same time it is prudent with the amount of growth that we have to also reserve those dollars,” he said. The council approved the budget 6-0.
State of the City – Westfield Mayor Scott Willis will deliver a state of the city address during the Westfield Chamber of Commerce monthly luncheon Nov. 21 at the IMMI Conference Center, 18880 N. East St. in Westfield. Registration is $30 for chamber partners and $45 for nonpartners. Register online at westfieldchamberindy.com under the events tab.

Westfield High School brings “Seussical the Musical” to the stage
By Marney Simon marney@youarecurrent.com
The Westfield High School theater department will bring the magic of Dr. Seuss to the stage Nov. 21-23 with this year’s fall musical production of “Seussical the Musical.”
The show weaves together a tale of adventure drawn from the famous childhood books, from “Horton Hears a Who” and “Gertrude McFuzz” to “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” and “The Lorax,” all under the narration of the Cat in the Hat. The musical explores themes of friendship, loyalty, family and community.
For the student cast and crew members, the show is a chance to go back to childhood.
Junior Sophia Musick, 16, plays Dr. Seuss’ most notable character — The Cat in the Hat. She said the show has been a challenge with a big payoff.
“Since it’s sung through, that’s been the hardest part,” Musick said. “Learning the music, when a song comes together, it just sounds great. It’s a really hard show to do since it’s sung through. It’s really funny and really mischievously whimsical.”
Musick said the youngest audience members will appreciate the show.
“I think the kids are going to really enjoy it, their favorite characters from Dr. Seuss books coming alive,” she said.
Junior Carter Dean Kinnett, 17, plays one of the five Wickersham Brothers. The brothers serve as assistants and backup dancers to the antagonist, the Sour Kangaroo. He said the audience will appreciate the music put to the famous stories.
“I have a bit of an old soul. I really like the funk of the music that we have. It’s really nice and cool and with the songs and how the harmonies come together It’s something that we’re all working really hard for,” Kinnett said. “I think people will really just like seeing how the set works and how the characters are, especially how the songs sound. I cannot stress enough how amazing we are going to sound. We’ve put hours and hours into singing and the choreography is just going to be immaculate. If they really like the funky style of music, they’ll love ‘Seussical.’”
Westfield High School counselor Eric Zabonick is the show’s assistant director. He said although the stories are created from childhood favorites, the show is for everyone.
“For adults, it takes you back to your childhood,” he said. “It makes you smile. It’s a fun musical that’s goofy at times, but then it has some adult themes in there. It just brings you back to your childhood. Kids are going to love it because it’s bright and colorful and they’re going to recognize characters like the Cat in the Hat.”
The show’s colorful set is the creation of the student-run crew, made up of more than 25 Shamrocks working on building and painting set pieces, sewing costumes
and picking out the perfect props.
Shop manager Kelsey Burrous, 16, a junior, has worked behind the scenes since her freshman year. She said the show has been an exciting artistic challenge, painting illusions that transform into the world of Dr. Seuss’ book covers.
“It’s been very colorful, because most of the time we are working to create realistic pieces,” Burrous said. “For “Clue” we had to make a mansion that had to look realistic and gothic. But now we’re turning these children’s books into a set and a place for all these main characters to live. It’s really abstract in a lot of ways and very fun, but it’s been a lot different from past years.”
Kennedy Brown is the show’s stage manager. The 17-year-old senior is excited to see how younger children in the audience will react to the show.
“I think people will like that it’s a childhood show,” Brown said. “We all know Dr. Seuss, so it’s just more about how we’ll get to see all of our favorite stories come to life and hear the music of it. I loved Dr. Seuss growing up, so even though I’m older than the kids who are going to come to the show, it’s great to see all the old stories that
Cat in
I used to read all the time come to life.”
Zabonick said the students have come through on stage and behind the scenes.
“’Seussical’ is a hodgepodge of all different Dr. Seuss stories. ‘Horton Hears a Who,’ ‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas,’ ‘Mayzie LaBird,’ all of those mesh together,” he said. “We have kids making the set, which looks like a giant playground. It also looks like it’s been ripped out of one of Dr. Seuss’ books, so we’re using colors that match the books. We’re using designs that are not traditional, so doorways look angled versus being straight. All props are being made. For instance, a camcorder. You don’t want it to look like a camcorder, it’s a Dr. Seuss camcorder. For actors, they are really focused on dancing and singing, because this is a musical where it is sung through for the most part.”
The show runs for three 7 p.m. performances Nov. 21-23, with a 2 p.m. matinee Nov. 23.

Opera singer Angela Brown is eager to lend her powerful voice in a different way. Brown will narrate Aaron Copland’s 1942 composition, “Lincoln Portrait,” during the Carmel Symphony Orchestra’s “America the Beautiful” concert at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 16 at the Palladium at the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.
“I get to work with a longtime friend of mine, Maestro Damien Geter,” Brown said of guest conductor Geter. “We have known each other for many years, even before he was living and working in Indianapolis. And now he has gone on to pen great symphonic and operatic works, and I am extremely proud to have the opportunity to be under his baton for ‘Lincoln Portrait.’ It is going to be terrific to collaborate with him and the Carmel Symphony.”
Brown said she sang with the Carmel Symphony on a few occasions several years ago.
“I’ve never narrated this piece before, but I am looking forward to this challenge and to taking a closer look at Lincoln’s words,” Brown said. “Many famous actors, statespeople and civic leaders have narrated this piece. I’m looking forward to adding my voice to this symphonic work as a spoken word artist as opposed to a singer, my usual role.”
The second piece is “Montgomery Variations” by Margaret Bonds, a Black composer, who died in 1972.
“It highlights the Civil Rights Movement and the Montgomery (bus) boycott,” Chastain said. “It’s a really interesting piece that has only been performed in recent years. We’re very excited to be bringing it to Carmel. It includes some African American spirituals and a really wonderful fusion of that part of American culture.”

CSO Executive Director Anne Marie Chastain said it’s an iconic work that showcases President Abraham Lincoln’s ability to bring people together during the difficult times.
“It’s going to be incredible,” Chastain said. “The symphony has performed it before with different community leaders. We’re excited to be performing it again.”
Chastain said it’s tremendous to have Brown return to CSO.
The work is structured in seven movements, each reflecting different aspects of the struggle for racial equality.
Antonin Dvorak’s “Symphony No. 9 From the New World” is the third main piece in the concert. It covers Dvorak’s reflections on American culture.
“It’s such a beloved, beautiful piece, so we’re excited to be playing that,” Chastain said.
The Indianapolis Children’s Choir will perform the national anthem to open the
concert.
“It will be a wonderful, patriotic way to kick off the concert,” Chastain said. “We traditionally have a concert around Veterans Day. This is continuing the tradition of celebrating American heritage during this month.”
There will be a short pre-concert talk at 6:10 p.m. followed by performances by three community groups that Chastain said represent diverse cultures.
The groups are Ballet Folklorico Mosaicos, representing Mexican culture; Chinese Mooncake Festival Committee dance group; and Indian Classical Dance from Natyalaya School of the Arts.
“We want to make this concert very inclusive on what makes America great,” Chastain said. “Immigrants from all over the world have been what has brought Americans together. It’s just to celebrate our collective culture.
“It makes us very happy to be host to other arts groups.”

Kennedy Martin can’t wait to see the finished product of her biggest film role yet.
Martin has a starring role in “Who’s Stalking My Family,” which debuts at 8 p.m. Nov. 7 on the Lifetime network.
“I’m eager to see how everything comes together, because you film all these scenes and you film them out of order,” she said. “You never know what the final product is going to be.”
Kate Watson, who plays her mother.
Martin has acted in other TV shows and movies.
“I got the audition through my Atlanta agency, People Store, who are so amazing,” she said. “They’ve been so supportive.”
Martin, 27, attended Carmel Middle School. Her family eventually moved to Westfield and she attended Heritage Christian School, graduating in 2016. She studied screen acting at Chapman University in Orange County, Calif., near Los Angeles.
Martin, who is based in Los Angeles, plays a high school student named Sadie, whose mother is being stalked.
“There are all the twists and turns of who you think it can be,” said Martin, who plans to watch the premiere with actress
The movie, which was directed by Jeff Hare, was filmed in Georgia.
“It was such an awesome collaborative experience,” she said.
“Jeff Hare worked so closely with the actors on performance and giving directions.”
Martin said playing the character over the course of several weeks was fun.
“I’d love to do more Lifetime movies,” she said. “I especially like the ripped-fromthe-headlines films based on true stories. I would like to work in network television. I’m really drawn to limited series.”
Martin appeared in Actors Theatre of Indiana’s presentation of “Beyond the Rainbow,” playing a young Judy Garland in 2007. She has performed in a few shows at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre, including “The Sound of Music” and “Mary Poppins.”

Indiana Wind Symphony Music Director Jay S. Gephart’s programming philosophy must serve three constituents.
CONCERT
“It has to serve myself, my musicians and the audience,” he said.
The selections making up “The Call: A Concert for Veterans” do just that, Gephart said. The IWS concert is set for 4 p.m. Nov. 10 at the Palladium at Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.
uate, performs regularly around Washington, D.C.
“He was recommended to me by several Wind Symphony members,” Gephart said. “I investigated his background and thought he would be a great fit for this concert, in particular.”
The guest soloist is Gil Hoffer, a retired trumpet player for the U.S. Army Band known as “Pershing’s Own.”
Hoffer will perform “Concerto for Trumpet,” composed by Alexander Arutiunian, and on “With Malice Toward None” from the movie “Lincoln” by well-known film composer John Williams. In addition, Hoffer will perform on James Curnow’s “Concert Piece,” which Gephart said is a more contemporary show number.
Hoffer, a North Central High School grad-
The concert opens with “Let Freedom Ring” by composer Ryan Nowlin, who is the conductor of the United States Marine Band, the President’s Own.
“Ryan, in addition to being a fine conductor, is a very talented composer,” Gephart said.
The concert will include “American Legion March” by Charles Wesley Parker.
“Indianapolis is the home of the American Legion, so it’s very appropriate we would do that march,” he said.
Evan Cooper, a Carmel High School graduate, will guest conduct on “Liberty” by Rossano Galante.
“Many of (Galante’s) band pieces sound like they would come from a film score because his music has become wildly popular,” Gephart said.

Noblesville’s Grace Church will stage seven performances of the musical “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” on weekends from Nov. 8 to 17.
Directed by Amy Christie, the church’s pastor of community life and 24-year veteran of Grace’s theater series, the production will involve approximately 75 performers, both church members and community theater actors.
Told entirely through song, the musical follows the journey of Joseph, a boy blessed with prophetic dreams, and his colorful path from Canaan to Egypt.
Christie, a Carmel High School graduate, has been on the church staff for 28 years. Her theatrical career at Grace began with the 2000 show “A Wonderful Life, The Musical,” and hasn’t slowed down since. She has produced all the shows and directed most of them. But she certainly hasn’t forgotten her roots.
“Much of what I do in theater was shaped growing up in Carmel and in Carmel
schools,” she said. “I believe the arts draw people together in a unique and special way.”
Uniquely, the cast includes five sets of twins. They are: Marley and Ryan Jackson, Carmel; Rilian and Corin Tolbert, Carmel: Jane and Willow McLaughlin, Noblesville; Addie and Halie Anderson, Noblesville and Jacob and Alex Stockton, Fishers.
Another casting highlight is Pastor Jon Owens of Indianapolis’s City of Lights Church and his five children, all of whom appear in the show. Owens is a graduate of Lawrence Central High School.

Commentary by Terry Anker
Today is Election Day. If we haven’t managed to do so already, we line up to undertake our civic duty. For a while, we will be swarmed with opinions about how the election turned out, if it was fair, and, hopefully not, if it has been finally certified. Those of us who remember hanging chads know that it can take a while. It was 36 days before the U.S. Supreme Court effectively ended the recounts and legal wrangling in the 2000 presidential election. We will continue to get the unsolicited, often fraudulent, requests for money from candidates and their paid political consultants for a bit. So far today, this humble writer has received 47 of them. And we return to regular programming on network and streaming video. The bulbous of advertisements will roll to a halt as campaign machinery runs out of the cash keeping the boilers hot. If we believe we are better off today than we were and we like where we live, we’ll have supported the current governments. If not, we’ll vote for something else
promised. It has happened in more or less the same way since the American Founding Fathers launched this great experiment in self-government. Did we want the entrepreneur governor or the schoolteacher one? Every vote counts equally, at least for those of us who bother to show. We get to decide.
We will return to normal lives, but has the damage been done? Has the toxicity of the modern body politic led us to elevate hate over forgiveness and identity over tolerance? Will we forgive our dear aunt for the cruel things she said? Will we forgive our young mentee for posting an almost 1,300-word epistle on social media critiquing the “hate” seen in others through 38 specific name-calling invectives about them? Will Chad figuratively have hung himself?

Through the years, I have poked fun at the great Hammacher Schlemmer gift catalog. On the cover, they boast that they have “the best, the unique, and the unexpected.” This is evidenced by the following items in their newest mailing. Stay tuned for more as we get closer to Christmas.
First, let’s take a look at all the huge lawn ornaments in the HS catalog. To name a few: a 16-foot snowman; a 15-foot inflatable Rudolph; a 5-foot Grinch; an 18-foot Frosty the Snowman; a 9-foot Twinkling Reindeer; and a 15-foot Santa. Buy them all and put them on your front lawn this week. Your HOA will love you. Trust me.
Oh, I almost forgot. They also have a lifesize replica of Santa on a ladder climbing up the side of your house to the roof. The problem is that the police keep shooting at him. Here are a few more nifty gifty items in this great catalogue.
• The Outdoor Heated Cat Shelter: For feline lovers who don’t love their cat enough to let him in the house. Cats won’t sleep in the shelter, but they will sleep in the box it came in.
• Hands-Free Binoculars: A good choice for that Peeping Tom in your life. Now, he can hold on to the edge of the windowsill with both hands while he peeps.
• Cordless Air Broom: This is the perfect gift for the Halloween witch who takes off only to be yanked back by the electric cord.
• The Genuine U.S. Military Watch: This is a beautifully crafted luxurious item priced at just over a thousand dollars. It sounds expensive, but on the bright it’s a hundred times cheaper than the Trump watch.
• The Best Nose Trimmer: Hammacher claims this was tested by a panel of experts who judged it the best nose

hair trimmer in the business. They claim the device is “good at getting to hairs others would have missed.” Other people? Do you have other people in your life searching for your nose hairs?
• The Barber Eliminator: Use this tool to cut your own hair. It then sends an automatic text to your stylist and fires him. You’ve wanted to do this for years. Done!
• The Side Sleeper Pillow: This pillow is a subtle hint to your significant other that you know that he or she is sleeping with someone on the side. It’s washable, so it’s a good time to air your dirty laundry.
• The Illuminated Ear Wax Cleaner: Why would you want to clean your ear wax? More important, why would you want the gadget illuminated? You can’t look in your own ears. And even your best friend won’t have any interest in helping.
• Stress Building Head Massager: Finally, the Stress-Relieving Full-Head Massager. It’s hard to describe this, so go to my Facebook page and tell me if the Hannibal Lecter Fan Club didn’t design this monstrosity, facebook.com/dick. wolfsie.
