60 years of Little League By Liz Schrader • news@currentzionsville.com The Zionsville Little League is celebrating its 60th year this season, and throughout the years one thing has remained at the celebration center of the organization: community. “The thing that rises above everything for our program is how many people in the community get involved, enjoy being at Lions Park and seeing kids play baseball,” said Bernie Paul, the Zionsville Little League information officer, who has been involved with ZLL for six years and has had three children go through the program. The Little League International program came to Zionsville in 1953 and started as a baseball league for 10- to 12-year-old boys. Now, the organization has grown to include more than 800 local 4- to 18-yearold boys and girls playing baseball, tee ball, and softball at a variety of skill levels. In the 1950s, Little Leaguers played on just one baseball diamond near the north end of the Lions Club building. Today, children play spring and summer ball games across a nine-diamond complex at Lions Park in downtown Zionsville. Former ZLL coach and board of directors president John Williams said that the community has helped make the program what it is today. “In the early ’90s the park really changed, expanding from six fields to nine with a paved parking lot and three playgrounds. Tom Lynn was a champion for the project and the community really came together to host different fundraisers and raise money for the new park,” he said. Zionsville resident Nadine Anderson played Little League softball from 1978 to 1985 and is part of a three-generation Zionsville Little League family. She said being at the park watching her sons play not only brings back family memories, but gives her a sense of community. “Being involved with Little League as a player and as a parent, you build so many friendships. This year after the flooding the community really came together to clean up the park in a week’s time to get it ready for the first games. It really was amazing to see,” she said. To celebrate its 60th anniversary, the ZLL will host a movie night June 7 at 8:30 p.m. at Lions Park. ZLL

Racing was different back then Commentary by Ward Deglar Indy car racing is cool, but it’s not what I grew up with. It was a stretch to call it stock car racing since very little about viewpoint those jalopies was stock. More accurately, we called it junkyard racing. Junkyard because that’s where all the car owners and drivers assembled Monday mornings to find replacement parts for their cars after Sunday’s romp around the fifth-of-a-mile dirt track at the fairgrounds. Today’s racing is serious business. Expensive too. On the other hand, I doubt anybody had more than a hundred dollars in their machines back then. A lot of the drivers traded parts. One guy had an extra radiator and another had a spare axel. The junkyard filled in the rest, and whatever was bought and installed into the cars on Monday usually came back broken the following week. Winning wasn’t as big an issue as survival. There were more bets placed on which cars
would actually finish the race than who would win the $50 purse. It was sort of a warped honor to have your car die before it made it once around the track. And, by the time the day’s racing was over, there were more disabled vehicles lining the track than those still running. The town marshal always closed the road back to town for an hour so everyone could tow their disabled steeds back home. Nobody ever got hurt either. It’s hard to get up enough speed circling a track not much bigger than your back yard to do much damage to either car or driver. There were some colossal messes on the track however, but mostly because one car stalled and brought all the others to a standstill. It cost a dollar admission to the track, and everyone brought their own beer. Including the drivers. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

What do you get when you combine art, history and classic cars? An evening of fun for all at the inaugural Garden Classics. diversion Set for 6 to 9 p.m. June 14, the event is a fundraiser for the SulivanMunce Cultural Center. “It would be great if we could raise $15,000 – it’s a bold number but it would allow us to continue to do all our programming,” Melissa Fanning, development coordinator and museum director, said. “One such program is where we have volunteers go to all the third-grade classrooms and teach them Zionsville history. It would also allow those same students to come to our organization on their annual field trip.” Funds raised also will go toward upkeep of the museum’s large collection of documents and artifacts from Zionsville and Boone County, as well as the genealogy library – which is free of charge. The money also would be used to help keep the art center viable. The idea for the event came from museum board members Steve Tarr and Diane Jackson who started brainstorming how to tie art, history and classic cars together – definitely not the
typical combination. “We are a three-prong organization – a genealogy library, an art center and then the museum, so it really all ties in,” Fanning said. “Art ties in to what we are, the history aspect of cars is very interesting, and we figured this would be something more appealing to a male audience for a change versus always doing something that appeals to the women.” One such way – a two-week exhibit of a 1923 Stutz HCS Model 6 Touring car, worth $50,000. “It will have a list of the four owners it’s had over the years so that ties into our genealogy function,” Fanning explained. “The current owner, William Greer, has graciously allowed us to have the car here and we plan to offer photos in front of it as party favors that night. I really think it will be one of the highlights of the evening.” Attendees will also be treated to 10 vintage classic cars by Indiana Region of the Classic Car Club of America, automotive art by Tom Hale and plein air paintings by national artist John Budicin. Live jazz music will be provided by The Brick Street Quartet – which is comprised of Zionsville college students “with quite the following.” Tickets for Garden Classics are $30 for museum members and $35 for non-members.

School Board meeting recap What happened: Dr. Scott Robison presented the annual Superintendent’s Boost Recognition for People of Promise Grant to one student from each of the ZCS elementary, middle and high schools. What it means: The $250 award, sponsored by a donation from Sodexo, allows each student to pursue an academic or personal interest that he or she might not otherwise be able to pursue. Past recipients have attended camps, taken educational trips or purchased scientific materials as their interest dictated.
What’s next: Grant recipients will be asked to attend a school board meeting in the future to share their experiences.
What happened: In accordance with Senate Bill 1 on school safety, the board voted to designate Jim Uland as the ZCS school safety specialist and authorized the superintendent to apply for a matching school safety grant if eligible. What it means: Matching grants in this program enable school corporations to employ school resource officers, conduct threat assessments or purchase safety equipment and technology. The maximum grant for a district the size of ZCS would be $50,000 per year for two years and must be matched with local funds.
What’s next: The legislation calls for a state commission to be established to create parameters for this new grant program. Once the parameters are established and known the board will take further action regarding use of the grant funds.
What happened: The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act provision requiring health insurance coverage for employees working more than 30 hours led the board to limit employee work hours for certain employee groups to no more than 29 hours. What it means: Employee groups such as instructional assistants, substitute teachers, child care workers, food service and other non-teaching support staff members will be affected by the limit. The district faced excise taxes up to $1.6 million or costs of more than $1.1 million if these limits were not established.
What’s next: Several other school districts have taken similar measures and it is expected that others will as well. The Board urged the administration to continue to monitor further changes in the regulations and to continue to explore other possible options which would make the limits unnecessary. Additional staff may be needed to meet the needs of individual education plans of students.
Community imperative: Link or sink Commentary by Dr. Scott Robison
I am proud to be a teacher and school leader by training, experience and “student-growth-first” DNA. Cooperation and collaboraSchools tive exploration are superchargers for the core mission of learning. Similarly, protecting and growing the power to serve youth of a community school district (which is also a local government entity) simply requires a link or sink mindset. Zionsville has recently shown all of Indiana how it must be done. The successful ZCS-Town/Redevelopment Commission partnership to establish economic development through acquisition of the Dow property is a fitting “sum larger than the individual parts” exemplar for other Indiana communities and their school districts. Gone are the days of viability for local government entities that operate completely in silos. If ZCS did not have partners like the Town, ZPD, ZFD, the Street Department – as well as partnering entities like the Sheriff and many important sub-agencies of Boone County – we would sink. Transcending a mere “win-win” situation, the Dow Property Partnership is at least a five-way win for Zionsville. • Foremost, taxpayer and ZCS interests are protected in many ways. For example, the agreement includes a guarantee of full repayment plus interest for ZCS bond use by the Town/
RDC to acquire and develop the property. • ZCS gets a suitable, non-residential site for a maintenance facility/warehouse needed and planned for nearly a decade ago. • Adds nothing to local property taxpayers’ burden but finally implements a need on the tax rolls since 2006. • The Town/RDC can finally call the shots on catalyzing development of this beautiful “gateway” parcel of land. • All current taxpayers will be aided by the diversification of assessed valuation. New corporate/business taxpayers in place will, over time, reduce other business and homeowners’ tax rates. Necessity is, indeed, the mother of invention. Because it works well and is necessary, Zionsville collaborates, helps and partners. Current times do not often provide examples of government success and cooperation worthy of our schoolchildren’s attention. I am fortunate to work on behalf of youth – the future. To all elected and appointed Zionsville leaders who moved this complex matter to fruition, the future thanks you! Dr. Scott Robison is the Superintendent of Zionsville Community Schools.

Rep. Steve Braun’s first legislative session impacts Zionsville By Julie Osborne • julie@youarecurrent.com His first legislative session is finished, but State Rep. Steve Braun’s (R-Zionsville) work will be felt in the months and years to come. cover story “I don’t think I’ve learned more in a fourmonth period. It was a challenging and rewarding experience,” said Braun, who represents District 24 which includes portions of Boone and Hamilton Counties. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, he had a direct hand in the forming and passing of the new biennial budget which goes into effect July 1 and includes an approximate 5-percent tax cut over four years, putting $1.1 billion back into Hoosier pockets. Local businesses also will benefit from the cuts. “There are specific tax cuts that would be impactful for all businesses,” Braun said. “Over 90 percent of small business owners file the same as individuals, so they will also benefit from the 5-percent cut.”
Increase in road funding
Another direct impact of this legislative session was an increase in road funding which provides more money to Boone County and also the Town of Zionsville through HB 1001. “On average, state transportation funding to cities and towns will increase by 34 percent when compared to 2012,” Aaron Smith, founder of Watchdog Indiana, said. “Counties will get 23 percent more transportation dollars from the state with annual funding to the Boone County Highway Dept. increasing approximately $690,000 and to Zionsville approximately $108,000.” These increases will be effective July 1 but plans for how the $108,000 will be spent are to be determined. “It is a bit premature to speak to exactly how much additional road funding will be available as there are only estimates at this point,” Lance Lantz, director of the Pathways committee, said. However, one project was affirmed. “Plans are definitely moving forward on the Ford Road roundabout projects,” Town Council President Jeff Papa said.
Direct impact on utilities
Royal Run and some Stonegate residents were directly affected by another piece of legislation, HB 1307, and actually were the inspiration behind it. “It became apparent to me while campaigning and knocking on doors in Royal Run that there was a problem,” Braun said. “These areas were being serviced by Whitestown so they had no vote (on the rates). It was taxation without representation.” This issue impacted more than 700 Royal Run homes and residents in portions of Stonegate development. These homes were originally serviced by a private utility company, Boone County Utilities LLC, which went bankrupt. In 2004, Whitestown bought the utility, and the area became serviced by the Whitestown south system, but rates were significantly higher than the north system. “The rates we were paying in the south system were a base rate of $42 for 2,000 gallons but it was $24 for that same amount of water in the north system,” Royal Run HOA President Brett Emsley said. “It was almost double what they were paying.” With Braun’s bill, residents who live in extraterritorial areas like Royal Run in Zionsville and the 350 other extraterritorial communities in the state can petition the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission to review and negotiate rates. With Royal Run, changes are already happening as Whitestown recently completed a rate study with a new proposed rate. “The new rate does exactly what Braun’s bill was intended to do. It is a proposal where the north and south are now equal,” Emsley said. “During the election, he learned of our situation and after he was elected, he called me right away in December with this idea of the bill. He was ready to go when the session started. He acted quickly to help us and worked through the challenges to get it done.”
Schools - less money, performance grants, more flexibility
School funding was another hot topic in this legislative session. The new budget included an increase in education funding, specifically with the per-pupil funding formula. However, Zionsville

schools actually will receive less state money in the coming years as a result of the complexity index, a key component of the funding formula based on the number of students qualifying for free or reduced-lunch programs. Despite the work of local superintendents, including Supt. Dr. Scott Robison, the fight for more funding did not result in change, and the funding formula will not be reexamined again until the next biennial budget year in 2015. “We lost more ground (with the funding formula) and will receive a performance grant that cannot lower class sizes or hire new teachers because of the law’s restrictions. We told our story a great deal,” Robison said. “Intractable political forces and even past practice that makes no sense cannot be overcome in just one session. We will keep at it.” The performance grant mentioned by Robison for high achieving schools could result in approximately $440,000, however, it is restricted to cash performance awards to teachers and cannot be used for teachers’ salaries or general fund expenses. High performing schools, including Zionsville, received additional relief through Senate Bill 189 which was co-sponsored by Braun. This bill gives more flexibility to high performing schools to allow for innovation in use of technology, curriculum, etc. Despite the disappointment in school funding, ZCS officials were pleased by the strong advocacy provided by the local senators and house members. “A particular bright spot for us was freshman Rep. Steve Braun, who worked very hard in his first term representing the Zionsville area,” Robison said. “Rep. Braun made a strong effort to educate his colleagues about our situation and the realities of the complexity index, and we certainly appreciate his efforts on our behalf.”

Blazing new trails It is our position that Conner Prairie Interactive History Park is blazing new trails with its focus on the customer. The Fishers living-history museum is now featured as one of six “magnetic” museums in the new book, “Magnetic: The Art and Science of Engagement,” published May 2013 by AAM Press. The book highlights six institutions that the authors say have the “secret sauce” to drive their success as high-performing American museums. Based on three years of research, the book, by authors Anne Bergeron and Beth Tuttle, concludes that Conner Prairie, along with the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, Pa.; the Chrysler Museum of Art in Norfolk, Va.; The Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pa.; the Greensboro Science Center in Greensboro, N.C., and the Philbrook Museum of Art in Tulsa, Okla., attract the human, social and financial capital necessary to thrive rather than just survive. Conner Prairie and the other five museums were identified by the authors through an analysis of quantitative performance metrics of a decade’s worth of data (2000 to 2010) from hundreds of U.S. institutions. The study found that these museums have become much more than simply keepers of cultural heritage or places of learning; they have also become vital players in the social, civic and economic vibrancy of their communities.

Must be present to win Commentary by Terry Anker Woody Allen is credited with saying that 90 percent of success is showing up. While one could argue the percentage, it is impossible to dispute that we must, in most of life, be present to win. Speaking on youth unemployment matters at a university in Eastern Europe, I found myself on the final panel of what had proven to be a long day of speakers. The room, once filled to capacity, was now spotted with open seats. And, even many of those that were filled found occupants texting, dozing or otherwise disengaged from the presentations flowing from a long line of pontificating academics and blowhard businessmen. Certainly, we can criticize the lack of attention and take note of the irony of failing to understand that that being an active participant in one’s own job seeking is required if one hopes to achieve the desired outcome. It is not sufficient to show up at an interview. It is not enough to create a robust resume. It is not even adequate
to know one’s own strengths and weaknesses – and understand how to express them. One must be able to do these all actively and with intent. In fact today, just showing up is not enough. But shouldn’t we also expect our speakers to engage with the audience in a way that is designed to capture attention and ensure a properly prepared and fertile mind in which to plant the ideas being communicated? While not advocating for some reality television style shock-fest, how could a little razzle dazzle hurt? Isn’t it a conceit to require the listener alone to carry the burden of successful communication? Both the person sending the idea and the person receiving it have to show up. And, they have to want to make the connection.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK When ambition ends, happiness begins.
- Thomas Merton
June 14 brings the Relay for Life to Lions Park, and we urge you to consider participating or donating. As of press time, 41 teams and 340 participants have raised $40,131.48 for the walk to end cancer – and that’s before the walk. The American Cancer Society tells us the fight to end cancer starts with a single step. “It’s your opportunity to not only honor cancer survivors and remember loved ones lost, but also to raise awareness about what we can do to stay well from cancer and raise money to help fuel the world’s largest walk to end cancer, ACS stated. If you want to participate in any form or fashion, and we hope you will, visit www.acs.org and search for the Zionsville event. ••• The Splash Park at Mulberry Fields, scheduled to open by Memorial Day Weekend, still is under repair. We urge your patience, while everything is made operational and, therefore, safe. The Town of Zionsville is working as quickly as possible. Nothing above ground will change, but piping problems below are being rectified. For more information, please visit www.zionsville-in.gov/parks or call the Zionsville Parks Dept. at 733-2272. ••• Your edition of Current will be different next week. We moved to a different print vendor in April, and among the changes we presented were a more economical use of newsprint (and, therefore, trees) and a stapling of the paper’s spine. For a variety of reasons – all with you at the center - we are making another move. The only change you’ll notice is the absence of the staples. We’re confident in the move we made in April, but we found a way to improve on that, and so that’s what we’re going to do. We appreciate your patience and hope you’ll enjoy the paper.

Wandering to the desert
Commentary by Julie Osborne
So, as millions flocked to Indianapolis for the Indianapolis 500, I decided to flee, to take a break to one of my favoreditor’s take ite places - Scottsdale, Ariz. There is something about the desert that brings me peace, and it has nothing to do with luxorious spas, at least not for me. On this trip, an added bonus was that I watched the race live and up close in the comfort of my own room enjoying a morning latte. I was routing for Tony Kanaan and was grateful to see him drink the milk – finally. I was also grateful to get a break from the chaotic pace of life. Of course, a book was in order and I intentionally chose, “Do Nothing To Change Your Life. Discovering What Happens When You Stop.” Stop. Me? This seemed like a perfect choice. And, in between dips in the pool to battle the 100-plus degree scorching, it did not disappoint as the words began to jump off the page. “I am much too busy, and I have allowed busyness to invade my life,” the pages screamed. “So much that it gets harder and harder to be in touch with that other part of me... But, when I do get back in touch, wonderful things happen. Not only do I become more of myself – and that is joy enough – but from myself there comes fruitfulness.”
WANDERING AROUND Z-VILLE
Where’s Julie this week?
Fruitfulness, I pondered. Not to be confused with fruitiness, courtesy of the melting strawberry smoothie I was sipping while getting distracted doing nothing. But, of course, I wasn’t doing nothing. I was writing and soon found myself studying this little book until the deep concentration was interupted by my phone. I later smiled as I read. “All the gizmos and gadgets that were supposed to have saved us time have only succeeded in raising expectations about how quickly people should respond and about how much more they should pack into each day.” And, that was only Chapter One! Dan Brown has got nothin’ on doing nothing, especially in the desert of Arizona. And my wandering continues “back home again in Indiana...” Julie Osborne is the managing editor of Current in Zionsville. You may e-mail her at julie@youarecurrent. com.

Watch out Africa, here I come Commentary by Danielle Wilson
I’m starting to panic, people. On the day many of you read this, I will be headed to North Africa or possibly already there. humor As I type though, I still have two weeks before Doo and I leave our kids, semi-trained dog, and slightly neglected house for 15 days of desert adventure and exotic-food fun. Yikes! In the words of Willy Wonka, “So much time, so little to do! Strike that. Reverse it.” For starters, we’re considering updating our will, which has remained untouched since 1999 when we abandoned our firstborn for fruity cocktails and Bahamian sun. As his guardian, we appointed the only sibling we had out of nine who was married at the time, and left the rest to the lawyer. Since then, we’ve added three more offspring, and the aforementioned sibling now has seven children of his own. What are the odds he’d like four more? Exactly. Problem is, it’s doubtful anyone else would be willing to take them on either, should we perish in a fiery explosion or airline disaster. So, we’re leaving things status quo. Uncle Todd already has a 12-passenger conversion van; let’s max that baby out! Next on my list is to organize a first aid/field medicine kit. Doo and I received our requisite inoculations for tetanus, hepatitis and typhoid (because, according to our doctor, “The world is covered in a layer of poo; it’s just thicker in
some areas.”) but I still need to round up pills for everything from constipation and diarrhea to vomiting and indigestion (both ends of the spectrum so to speak!). Non-Spongebob bandaids and military-grade insect repellant would be good, and I should probably take Benadryl, Sudafed and Robitussin to cover the cold I’ll catch on the plane. Bring it on, malaria! Finally, I need to sort out the house and the kids’ schedules for the two sets of grandparents who graciously agreed to babysit. Unfortunately, Doo and I are the type of people who throw parties just so the dusting and scrubbing gets done, which is to say our home is generally in a state of sanitary neglect. But, my parents will actually be staying here, so at some point, I need to bath everything, children included, in Clorox. Once that’s taken care of, and the fridge and pantry are stocked for the apocalypse, then all I have to do is organize carpool for soccer, dance, tumbling, swimming and summer-school PE; post the dog and cat-care schedules in fifteen convenient locations; pre-coordinate playdates and birthday parties; and oh yeah, pack. Farewell, dear readers! Until I write again, bid me serenity. Peace out.

Fishers-based electronica band gaining ground
By Dan Domsic • Dan@youarecurrent.com
The Sweetest Condition, a Fishers-based electronica band, debuted its EP, “Truth & Light,” on April 30. Current caught up with Leslie Irene Benson, vocals and lyrics, and Jason music Reed Milner, keys and guitar, for an update on the local act’s progress and to talk about the EP. As of May 28, The Sweetest Condition sat at the No. 1 spot on Reverbnation.com’s Local (Indianapolis) Electronica Genre charts, No. 39 on the U.S. Electronica charts and No. 99 on the global charts in the same category. Before forming The Sweetest Condition, Benson and Milner formed the band Irene and Reed. You can find the EP on iTunes, Amazon.com, CD Baby and Google Play. Check the tunes out on www.thesweetestcondition.com. Current: Jason says the aim of the band and EP is to bring guts back to music. Which track off of “Truth and Light” best exemplifies that mantra? Jason Reed Milner: “With ‘You Don’t Know Me,’ I wanted to bring back that feeling I first got when I listened to albums like ‘Pretty Hate Machine’ by Nine Inch Nails – that raw nerve and aggression, without holding anything back. The electronic/industrial sounds are abrasive, yet complex, incorporating an overwhelming fullness utilizing a synthesized orchestral tone. I introduced an overdriven guitar sound to the song to give it ‘meat’ – an edge you don’t often hear these days. I wish the radio was like it was back in the early 1990s, when you’d listen to it to discover new music. Now the radio is the last place you’ll find new music.” Current: The Sweetest Condition climbed the charts on ReverbNation.com. What has the experience been like? Jason Reed Milner: “What really matters to me more than anything rather than numbers on a website – (the true measurement of the impact of music) – is how many people go away excited to see you perform again and how it makes them feel. Seeing people get involved, get engaged with our music, and having them tell us directly how it makes them feel means more to us than anything else.” Leslie Irene Benson: “We’re cutting through the ‘noise’ and getting in front of more people. The music allows us to connect with our fans on a personal level as artists and human beings.” Current: Has it been challenging to break through on the local level? Leslie Irene Benson: “The scene in Indy has been growing in recent years, and there is amazing music being created and performed here every day. The local scene has been very supportive in getting the word out, especially online via social media.”

Current: Is The Sweetest Condition still working away at the full-length album “Struggle, Strength, Reclamation?” Leslie Irene Benson: “After our last interview with you, we played our first show at the White Rabbit and had a break-through. We realized as much as we wanted to merge what had been our first music project, Irene & Reed (dark-tinged Americana/indie rock) with this new project we were calling The Sweetest Condition, it had become its own entity. The electronic music we were writing as The Sweetest Condition felt more intense, more driven, and more necessary. As much as people grow and change, so do bands. So we split The Sweetest Condition and Irene & Reed into two separate music projects, giving us the opportunity to focus solely on this new sound. We decided to temporarily shelve ‘Struggle, Strength, Reclamation,’ which we will release at a later date as Irene & Reed, and we instead wrote 15 new songs as The Sweetest Condition. Our ‘Truth and Light’ EP features five of these new tracks, all available on iTunes, Amazon.com, CD Baby, and other digital music stores. Where ‘Truth and Light’ is inspired by a dark ‘80s electronic soundscape, our upcoming full-length album, which we are currently fine-tuning, will be infused with synthpop and EDM (electronic dance music).” Current: “Truth and Light” features the track “The Ghost & the Girl,” based on a poem about the loss of a friend. Was expressing your thoughts through music therapeutic? Leslie Irene Benson: “Shortly after we started The Sweetest Condition, I lost a very dear friend. From a lyrical standpoint, writing ‘Truth
and Light’ through the grieving process gave me a new voice and a new chance. I am more willing now than ever to fight for my dreams, my friends and my family.” Current: The EP is pretty heavy. Does it take a different kind of mindset to write this type of music? Jason Reed Milner: “There’s a lot of audio sculpting involved. Each sound must be created from scratch. The songs are orchestral compositions in their own right. They’re audible representations of emotions. ... I started off writing electronic music, so the process comes naturally.” Current: If each of you could pick one favorite track off of the EP, what would your picks be and why? Jason Reed Milner: “’The Wound’ builds with emotion into a holy deliverance. It’s a mix of organic and digital sounding synths.” Leslie Irene Benson: “I’ve been told by fans that ‘The Wound’ is the song they play on ‘repeat.’ It’s a little sinister, a little seductive. When I wrote the vocal melody, I channeled David Gahan. The song has a cinematic undertone.” Current: Of your muses, which is the most evident on “Truth and Light?” Leslie Irene Benson: “Our muses for ‘Truth and Light’ were the songwriters David Gahan, Martin Gore, and Trent Reznor. ... Our upcoming full-length album, which we’re working on now, lends itself to other inspirations, including The Birthday Massacre, Shiny Toy Guns, and Ladytron.” Current: What’s next for The Sweetest Condition? Jason Reed Milner: “We’re finishing our fulllength album and gearing up for our first tour.”

Art’s the star this weekend editorial@youarecurrent.com
Nickel Plate Arts Weekend will showcase the local arts in Fishers, Noblesville, Cicero, Arcadia and Tipton with everything ARTS from a film screening to an audience participation play, a rain barrel auction and kids painting snow plows. The weekend begins with the June 7 performance of “Going, Going, Gone” at the Nickel Plate Arts Campus, 107 S. Eighth St., Noblesville. This improvised play written by Lou Harry and John Thomas of Indianapolis relies on audience participation to bid on a strange collection of auction items with fake money that’s distributed at the door. June 9’s screening of “Ingénue,” a new film by award-winning local filmmaker Kate Chaplin of Karmic Courage in Noblesville includes red carpet arrivals at 7 p.m., the premiere of a music video, the feature film itself and a Q&A with cast and crew. The film will be shown at 8 p.m.
in the Abbey Professional Building, 269 W. Jackson St., Cicero. Art classes will be held June 8 and 9 at the Nickel Plate Arts Campus in Noblesville including Recycled Art Class, Make & Take-Portraits With a Partner, Greeting Cards and an Herbal Tea Tasting with a Master Naturalist. All of this is happening as students in Fishers are painting the city’s snowplows to give them a lively new look. On June 9, a Make-do-Style Cardboard Class in Cicero encourages kids to turn cardboard into whatever kind of fort, puppet, car, robot or contraption they can imagine. Other highlights include tours by train led by the Indiana Transportation, The Hamilton County Artists’ Association’s 5th Annual Plein Air Painting Celebration, and the Painted Rain Barrel Auction at the Cicero Farmer’s Market.

Do facial implants affect aging? Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley
Q: I have a few questions regarding facial implants. I did not see this addressed on your blog so thought I aesthetics would ask. My question is regarding the known/ suspected long term effects of having facial implants if any. While I understand that for instance solid silicone implants such as the jaw/ chin implants will last a lifetime, what does the aging process hold for those that have such implants? Does placing an implant under the largest muscle (of the jaw) have drawbacks as I age. Will jowls/ sagging skin etc show up faster since the muscle is now stretched over this new jaw? Or will aging and its various processes
dipatches Just gross – Research at the University of Texas Medical Branch revealed some nasty things about the toothbrush. While conducting research to see whether the germs that cause strep throat thrived on brushes after kids have the illness, researchers tested two brand-new brushes. They found that those brushes had germs growing on them. Only one of the test brushes from the kids exhibited strep germs – and that child didn’t even have the illness. – vitals.nbcnews.com

just march on as if I never had anything done and just as if I was born with this new wider jaw and more pronounced chin? A: Facial implants of any location have no negative impact on facial aging and may actually have the reverse effect. As implants add volume to the outside of the bone, they may prevent some tissue sag, or delay it, that will inevitably occur with aging. Cheek implants, for example, are used to treat sagging cheeks in older patients so it is reasonable to assume that they might have a preventative effect as well.

Carry enough liability insurance Commentary by Jamie Ianigro
Question from Amelia P. from Fishers: I saw someone take a spill at my daughter’s graduation party last weekend. Insurance They were OK, but it got me worried about what I would be on the hook for if they were seriously injured. What’s the best approach to protect my family from this issue? Response from Jamie Ianigro: Thanks for your note Amelia. What you are asking about is a liability issue. If someone is injured on your property, you would be liable. Best case scenario is a minor injury that is easily remedied. The worst case scenario is a death or major injury that requires specialized care for the rest of that person’s life. You would be liable for the cost regardless of which scenario you end up with. Luckily for most, a homeowner’s (or renter’s) insurance policy provides liability coverage to protect you from scenarios just like the above. Is the amount of coverage that is automatically included in your policy enough, though? That is a question that I highly recommend posing to your independent insurance agent, but my approach is that it is not. We like to look at the coverage options available as adequate, good, and best. “adequate” coverage is what you automatically get with any policy. The department of insurance has your back and won’t let sneaky agents drop cover-
ages like this to manipulate the total cost of the policy. This means, at worst, you have adequate coverage when you buy a homeowner’s or renter’s policy. People stick with adequate coverage because they’re not afraid of the added risk, they don’t know about the added risk, or protecting their assets from that added risk is not worth the small added cost of increased liability limits. The “good” coverage is the baseline of what I would recommend to any person I speak to. You get increased liability protection and pay a small increase to the price of the policy. However, a $1,000,000 liability claim is painful with low limits and can still hurt with $500,000 to $750,000 liability limits. That’s why I always inform people about the “best” coverage option. The “best” coverage option is liability from your homeowner’s policy covering the first $500,000 (varies depending on the carrier) of a loss and an umbrella policy stepping in to cover the remaining $500,000. You can get an umbrella policy in pretty much any amount you can imagine, but $1,000,000 is a great place to start. It also costs much less than you might imagine. I highly recommend discussing this further with your independent insurance agent. Jamie Ianigro is with Shepherd Insurance & Finanacial Services. Have an insurance question you need answered?

AUSTISM CLINIC OF INDIANA New hope for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADD and ADHD
Highly Trained Medical Staff • Advanced Individualized Treatment Options • Most Major Medical Insurance Plans Accepted Genetic Consultation • Review of Medical records • Laboratory testing “While early intervention is critical, ASD Treatment Clinic taught us it is never too late with children on the Autism Spectrum. We have three teenage children on the spectrum with varying ranges of disabilities. With Genetic Consultants of Indiana, ASD Treatment Clinic we learned what was happening to our children from the inside out. I call it our roadmap. We found out what our children needed without guessing or trying experimental treatments. Plus we loved that our major medical insurance was accepted.” - Bob & Sharon Smith, IN
“A child sneaks out of the house, runs away, is hyper, has minimal focus and can’t socialize with friends for more than a minute. That used to be our son, Jack.
• SOCIALIZATION: Why is my child having difficulty making friends? • IMPULSIVENESS: Why doesn’t my child understand consequences of his/her actions? • FOCUSING: Why does my child have problems paying attention in school and at home? • HYPERACTIVITY: Why can’t my child sit still, and has trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep? • ANGER: Why does my child display such anger and gets out of control with his/her emotions? If you can relate to any of these questions there is help.
21
People think the answer to autism and ADHD are psychiatric medicines, but we knew that was only going to cover up his real symptoms. Despite this, we tried several mainstream treatments that produced little to no results. In the six months that Jack has been on the protocol through ASD Treatment Clinics, he has experienced much improvement with his focus, learning ability, behavior and overall wellbeing. Early intervention is very important for children on the autism spectrum and we thank God that we were led to the ASD Treatment Clinic. Jack now has a treatment that we can trust will improve not only his life but the lives of our entire family.” - Renee and Ted Zlotopolski, Arnold, MO

Chance keeps you in the game Commentary by David Cain
It comes to the final play, the ending. While it’s that play that often draws the most criticism from amateur coaches on success everywhere, it’s usually not the final play that decided the game’s outcome. Whether you win or lose is less about the last minutes than it is the whole game and the entire game plan. Close games that are won or lost by tiny margins clearly had a game plan that worked. Outcomes of a game are more reliant on a series of choices and cumulative performance. If you lost or won by a little bit, you were in the game and had a chance to win. And, you can’t win them all. You will lose sometimes. It’s what you do after the loss that matters most, how you rally. Even if your work happens at an office and not on a court or field, you’ll be confronted with the same reality. You will lose sometimes. It’s statistically impossible to win all the time.

refine for the next attempt? Winners get excited about the next opportunity and view it as a new opportunity; a chance to win is far better than the sour taste of not being in the game. Well, businesses have four quarters, too. Each quarter is 131,400 minutes long and after four quarters, your score is entered in the record books or, more likely, your bank’s books. Every period you have a chance to win or lose and the end result of each quarter won’t be because of what happens in the final minute. Instead, it will be the result of the decisions you made well before the game started. It will be grounded in your practice, your preparation, your performance and your passion. The surest of game plans and preparation can only give you a chance to win it and that chance, the chance to execute perfectly, is what keeps a competitor in the game.

Wadi Qelt offers inspiration Commentary by Don Knebel
Wadi Qelt (or Kelt) is a narrow gorge cutting through the Judean Wilderness, a rugged mountainous area in the West Bank east travel of Jerusalem. A blue-domed monastery improbably clinging to its steep northern face marks Wadi Qelt as a special place, not only the setting for one of Jesus’ best known parables but also the likely inspiration for the Bible’s best loved Psalm. For thousands of years, travelers between Jerusalem and Jericho have followed the 17-mile long path through Wadi Qelt, facing danger from falling, wild animals and thieves hiding in its many caves. By the time of Jesus, the Romans had built a road through Wadi Qelt that became the setting for the only parable of Jesus tied to a specific geographic location. The traveler rescued by the Good Samaritan had been beaten by thieves and left to die by passing countrymen along this dangerous road to Jericho. Shepherds can still be seen above Wadi Qelt, leading their sheep and goats along paths worn into the hillside by countless earlier shepherds. The shepherds still guide their flocks along these
paths with their rods and still lead them to the calm, spring-fed waters of the wilderness. When sitting above Wadi Qelt, it is impossible not to imagine that the writer of the 23rd Psalm was sitting in the same spot when he wrote about his Lord, the shepherd, protecting and comforting his animals as they walked through the “valley of the shadow of death.” Whether this really happened will never be known, but it is easy to see the comforting words of that famous Psalm as an effort by their writer, traditionally thought to have been David, to connect his image of God with the real experiences of his people. A trip to Israel includes many opportunities for connecting the events in the Bible with the locations where they happened. But few travel experiences compare with sitting above Wadi Qelt and contemplating the hundreds of generations that have experienced both its dangers and the words of hope and compassion it may have inspired.

A couple of thoughts on ‘couple of’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer
Question: “Dear Grammar Guy, There is a relatively new trend among younger writers and, as a former high school grammar guy English teacher, it’s driving me crazy. Popular construction: ‘I’ll be with you in a couple minutes.’ Traditional construction: ‘I’ll be with you in a couple OF minutes.’ I know which one I think is correct, but perhaps you can address this is in your column in Current.” (Pamela Jackson, Carmel) Answer: Thanks for writing in, Pamela. I think I can spare a couple of minutes to talk about the subject. The word “couple,” as we use it in everyday speech, is a noun with a very specific meaning: “two persons married, engaged or otherwise romantically paired,” or simply “two persons paired together.” It has a different meaning in physics and chemistry, but those uses aren’t relevant to our discussion now. When we use the phrase “a couple of,” we’re getting into idiomatic territory. “A couple of” serves as an adjective phrase modifying whatever noun comes after the preposition: a couple of dogs, a couple of trees, a couple of dollars, etc. In this sense, the phrase “a couple” does not necessarily indicate two people who are paired together, but rather a small but indeterminate number
of people or things which are grouped or loosely bound together. In the phrase above – “I’ll be with you in a couple of minutes” – the speaker is obviously not referring to two minutes which are romantically involved. It’s understood that the speaker isn’t even referring to two minutes, but likely a short period of time required to finish whatever task he or she is currently engaged in; a “few” minutes, more or less. This is an idiom. As native English speakers, we understand the meaning of the phrase intuitively, even though a literal translation for a non-native speaker likely wouldn’t make much sense. It’s difficult to say that idiomatic expressions have hard and fast rules for them, since by definition they are colloquial, non-standard uses of words. However, since our idiom is changing “couple” from a noun to an adjective phrase, and changing the meaning, to boot, I think it’s fair to require the preposition “of” after “couple” to tip off the listener/reader that we aren’t using the word’s standard definition. Besides, “of” is only two letters. If you can’t spare even a couple of milliseconds to tack it on, well, that’s just lazy. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing.

Backsplash is an easy kitchen redo Commentary by David Decker
If you’re looking to upgrade the look of your kitchen, one high-impact place to start is installing a new backsplash design. A indoors new backsplash can instantly refresh the feel of your kitchen. And, because it’s possible to switch out a backsplash without moving cabinetry or appliances, this upgrade makes a great weekend remodel project. You’ll want to begin by first measuring the length and height of the wall space where you’re going to install your backsplash. These measurements will give you a baseline idea about what size of tile to shop for. Once you’ve recorded the measurements, you can start looking for design inspirations. What kind of style are you trying to create in your kitchen? Not all backsplashes are made from tile, but it’s the route many homeowners choose to go. Keep the following elements in mind when you are shopping for tile: • Backsplash tiles come in a huge variety of sizes, so don’t let yourself be confined to the old 4-inch by 4-inch or 6-inch by 6-inch standard tile sizes of yesterday. Select larger tiles if you you’d like to make a space look bigger. Or if you’d like to generate an intricate, yet cohesive design, small mosaic tiles may be perfect for your kitchen. • Keep in mind the color of your countertops as you are choosing a tile color. Complex and colorful backsplashes look best when paired with solid countertops, and vice versa.
• Backsplashes can be constructed from ceramic, stone, glass, metal, porcelain and more. Inventively mixing different materials is sure to attract visual attention. And don’t forget to pay close attention to textures. • Changing the orientation of your tile can radically change the entire look of the backsplash. Try vertical or diagonal patterns for a modern, innovative style. After you’ve decided on a particular style or look for your tile, it’s time to think about the way you’d like to install it. Wrapping the backsplash around a wider perimeter of the room can make your kitchen more visually consistent, while tricking the eye into making the room look bigger. You may also want to create a focal point above the stove or around other cooking areas. Switch up the color or pattern in this area for a bit of visual excitement. Or, say you’ve found a beautiful (but pricey) tile design. You could save money by using the expensive tiles only above the cooking area, while using more affordable tiles throughout the kitchen. The best backsplash designs enhance your kitchen cabinetry and countertops, while acting as a visually exciting decorative component. Pay attention to the details and don’t be afraid to try something new.
