Mitro’s service ends after nearly 20 years By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com After almost 20 years of serving Zionsville, Ed Mitro’s last day as deputy mayor was Jan. NEXT CHAPTER 1. Julie JohnsCole, who was appointed to the office by new mayor Emily Stryon, is the town’s new deputy mayor. Mitro, a Russian and music double major in college, always had been interested in the way municipalities are structured. That interest led him to earn an urban planning graduate degree from Ball State University and a planning position working for the City of Indianapolis. “I’d always been interested in how cities and towns work and how the built environment happens,” Mitro said. In 1999, Mitro left his position with the city after 15 years for a land-use consultant position with Faegre Baker Daniels LLP. His first job there was to be the contract planner for the Town of Zionsville. A few years later, the town created a planning director position, and Zionsville officials lured Mitro away from the law firm. Mitro started as the town’s planning director in March 2001 and held that position until 2004, when town officials hired him for the new role of town manager. In 2016, the Indiana Supreme Court ruled that Zionsville’s reorganization with Perry Township was valid, meaning the town could have its own mayor — normally an office exclusively seen in cities. “It was an exciting time,” Mitro said. “It was a new state law. We were the first community to ever try it. We were creating from whole cloth.” Mitro’s position changed to deputy mayor in 2016, an office he held until Jan. 1, when Johns-Cole took office. “When I first came here the town had, and I remember this number from the 2000 census, 8,775 people, and it was less than 13-square miles,” Mitro said. “Today, it is almost

27,000 people and 72-square miles. It’s the largest town in area in Indiana. There’s been a huge amount of change. The one thing I appreciate, and I live here, so it’s my community, too, (is that) it still maintains its character. It doesn’t want to be something else. It wants to be a bigger, better town of Zionsville. “I hope it never loses it. It is unique among towns in Indiana, and I hope it never loses that.” Although he spearheaded several town projects and helped the town grow to what it is today, Mitro jokingly said he looked forward to not needing to set an alarm on Jan. 1. “I wouldn’t trade this job for anything,” Mitro said. “I think the people that I work with, the dedicated staff and the people that work to make Zionsville what it is every day, you can’t replace that. That is something I will always value. I keep going back to the people. It’s a wonderful community, but it’s the people in the community that make it what it is, and I’ve been blessed to be a part of that for 20 years.” Mitro said he never has had political ambitions, so he doesn’t plan to run for office. But he knows his next move isn’t retirement. There’s too much he’s still interested in, and there’s still much he wants to do.

Commentary by Ward Degler Our well pump was slow kicking in the other morning, and I started the day with a wimpy PLAIN TALK shower. Bummer! Then, I realized how blessed we are that we can go to the sink, turn on the faucet and get water. We throw dirty clothes in the washing machine, push a button and walk away. Job done. In the summer, I uncoil the hose and water thirsty flowers. Water is something man cannot do without. The ancients built aqueducts to bring water to their cities. Pioneers dug wells with nothing but shovels. The aborigines in the Outback of Australia fill ostrich eggs with water and bury them in the sand so thirsty trekkers can have a drink. Out west, farmers fight about water rights. My cousin who managed water conservation for the state of New Mexico says folks have actually killed over water. We didn’t have running water when I was a kid. Mostly, we had cisterns and shallow wells. We brought water into the house one bucket at a time from an outdoor hand pump. One of the places we lived had a pump at the kitchen sink. Mom was ecstatic. Of course, she had to keep a pan of water on the counter to prime the pump. Once, she forgot and had to wait for Dad to come home with his canteen. Dad also kept a canvas desert bag

attached to the front of his pickup in summer. He soaked the bag in water and filled it with water. As he drove, the hot, dry air evaporated the water from the outside of the bag. The result was cool drinking water on a hot day. I never understood how this worked. Dad said it was some law of physics. We took baths on Saturday in a washtub. Mom heated water in the tea kettle a dozen times and then added cold water from the pump. We kids got the first bath, followed by Mom and Dad — in the same water. We washed our hair once a week at the sink and rinsed with warm water that had been heated on the stove. One place we lived the well was contaminated, and Dad brought water home in metal jerrycans. We may hook up to city water in the future, but we like the well water. It’s hard as concrete but is free of chlorine. Some cities have deep wells. One such town is Sioux Falls, S.D. It was once named the city with the best-tasting water in the U.S. It also was the coldest water in the U.S. It actually made your teeth hurt. Come to think of it, a wimpy shower now and then isn’t so bad. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife.

How goal setting is different for children Commentary by Tami Silverman What are your goals for 2020? For adults, the most popular resolutions include exercise more, YOUTH quit smoking, learn a new skill and manage money better. What about for kids? Should they also be making New Year’s resolutions? Studies show child goal setting can build their resilience, confidence and motivation. Yet, it is important that we understand how goal setting is different for children. With the right approach and tools, building our children’s ability to set appropriate goals can put them on a path to long-term success. As caring adults, we can set the conditions for our children to learn the benefits of goal setting. In fact, experts agree that most children learn how to set goals by continually watching their parents and mentors. Teaching children how to set and achieve goals helps them learn the values of reflection and self-improve-

ment. And reflective self-improvement, also called a growth mindset, has been found to be a better predictor of future success than IQ. To be effective, children must drive the goal-setting process. To ensure that the goals are truly those of the child and not a reflection of adult overreach, caring adults must play a supporting role, allowing the child to identify their unique goals. One approach, the ABCs of Goal Setting, from Psychology Today, highlights that goals should be achievable and believable, while involving personal commitment. EdWeek proposes a simple “noun plus verb” structure, such as “read every night” or “attend homework groups.” With any approach, it’s important to review plans regularly and to anticipate that setbacks may occur and adjustments will be needed. While goal setting can be started with children as young as 3 or 4, it is important to adjust the approach based on the child’s age. At any age,

start the conversation by simply asking children what they would like to do this year. Michelle Borba, parenting expert and author of the book “UnSelfie,” suggests using this formula: “I will” plus “what,” “when” and “how.” For younger kids, the formula simplifies to “I will” plus “what.” Goals such as learning to tie shoes or memorizing simple addition facts are realistic for little ones and can later grow to be more complex. Psychology Today says a key in goal setting is to listen to the child and focus on the process of improvement rather than the product. We also can help by ensuring that our kids don’t set too many goals or select goals that are too complex or too simplistic. Many experts suggest that by selecting goals that are just out of reach, we can teach children to try new things. At the same time, kids need to see and understand that self-improvement takes time and that setbacks are normal. Show them the struggles

you’ve encountered to reach your own goals. There are many great biographies, such as those of Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison and many Olympic athletes, that highlight the essential connection between goals, failure and success. Goal setting holds the promise of helping kids in many parts of their lives, and experts recommend looking beyond academics. When youth are overscheduled and stressed, they may need to identify goals and action steps that foster relaxation and fun as part of their lives. Borba recommends we promote this balance by helping children set and achieve character goals. Character goals aim at cultivating “we-thinkers” instead of “me-thinkers.”

INDY MAX IMPACT PROVIDES A TEAM ATMOSPHERE

How one woman lost 180 pounds By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com Katherine Eckart lives in Broad Ripple, but she wakes every Monday, Wednesday and COVER STORY Friday at 4:20 a.m. to drive to Zionsville’s Indy Max Impact gym. By 5 a.m., she’s sweating, burning calories and has kick-started her morning. When her workout is finished, she drives home in the dark to shower and prepare for her workday. Her routine has been the same, with the addition of 8 a.m. Saturday workouts, for three years and is part of a six-year commitment to gym life. The only difference between Dec. 28’s Saturday morning workout and one from six years ago is the 180 pounds she has shed from her body. Along with a couple dozen other women, Eckart, 31, wearing black leggings and a fitted black tank top, works out at Indy Max Impact, an all-women boot camp gym that incorporates strength training and cardio elements, to start her morning. Before, she would have hidden behind baggy clothes that didn’t cling to her body. She would try to hide in the background away from others. Now, she is greeted by the other women who have come to be friends – some of her closest friends, even if

they only see each other during workouts. They are part of her support system. “Whenever there was a moment when I wasn’t showing up as consistently and not progressing like I was, they’d check in, and that was something that I needed,” Eckart said. Eckart teaches art to kindergarten through eighth-grade students at St. Joan of Arc School in Indianapolis. Her fitness journey began when she realized she couldn’t keep up with the younger children she was teaching after graduating from college the previous year. They would easily outpace her, and she knew it was because of her weight. So, she joined a gym. At first, she said the weight quickly came off. Gradually, she lost 80 pounds in three years. But then the weight stopped coming off (at least permanently – she would lose 20 pounds and gain it back just as fast). Her gym routine had lost potency, so she searched for something different, something that would hold her accountable. She found what she was looking for at Indy Max Impact. Indy Max Impact creates new workouts for members every time they visit. One day might involve squat

racks and battle ropes. Other days might involve cardio drills and teamwork. On this morning, Eckart’s group starts with a series of mountain climbers, plank jacks and pushups before switching to a station dedicated to ladder runs and weighted jumping jacks. When her weight loss plateaued, Eckart started to consider whether variables other than the time she spends in the gym could be contributing to her struggles. After meeting with Zach Williams, a co-owner of Indy Max Impact, she realized her diet needed to change if she was going to keep off the weight. She began counting calories and tracking macro nutrients – proteins, carbohydrates and fats. During the following three years, she lost another 80 pounds. “She is our first 100-pound transformation,” Williams said. “We celebrated when she finally did it. It was a big deal for her. The 100-pound transformation is the visual, but there are so many changes she made from Day 1 to 100 pounds down.” Now, Eckart — a newlywed whose husband is Ross — can complete an entire workout that consists of burpees, clean and presses and running (something she does a lot

Indy Max Impact co-owners Zach Williams and his wife, Waychaun Williams, decided several years ago that they wanted to be in better shape. The couple set a goal of competing in separate competitions – a bodybuilding competition for him, a fitness competition for her. They started going to the gym consistently and convinced two others to join them for their workouts. The four conceived new circuit-based workouts they could all do. Zach placed third in his competition, and Waychaun took first place in hers. But it was the camaraderie and team atmosphere the four shared in the eight-month build-up to their competitions that they enjoyed the most. And when people continuously asked them how they got in such great shape, they decided to become personal trainers. They eventually grew a following from referrals and offered fitness boot camp classes in a dance studio during the summer of 2013. At the end of that summer, they found a location, at 10659 Andrade Dr., where they could conduct boot camp classes for women on their own schedule and have a dedicated space for equipment and training. “It’s not for everyone,” Zach said. “It’s not for people who aren’t willing to work hard. It’s not for people who are looking for a quick, easy button to lose a ton of weight. “It’s for people who are serious and willing to make serious change so they can see serious results. It doesn’t matter if they are brand new to fitness or an elite athlete looking to take their fitness to the next level.” of these days, as she runs the One America 500 Festival Mini-Marathon every year). She said she has changed internally, too, not just physically. She pushes herself and doesn’t give up on her goals. She feels more confident. She states her opinions. She doesn’t blend into the background.

LETTER

Too many Trumpbashing letters

Commentary by Terry Anker So-called self-help gurus have asked us if we really know ourselves since the “me” generation. One can assume the question is more existential than tangible. With the exception of infirmity or infancy, we recognize enough about ourselves to provide our given name, city of domicile and perhaps a few important numbers – namely Social Security and birthdate. From the youngest age, we humans find it important to label ourselves (or at least to recognize those labels applied to us). Eventually, some of us resist. We don’t like our names. We don’t like our families. We don’t like our addresses. Whatever the genesis, we march out into the world hopeful to create a new identity unmarked by that provided at baptism or afforded by our progenitors. From the start, we are branded with an official birth certificate. We believe its veracity because we have no way of personally knowing if it is accurate or not. Besides, could we “be” without it? And as we age, it becomes more important, at least to get along in our social order, to be one, consistent person. At 16, we get a state-issued driver’s license. By adulthood, we have mortgages, wills and all sorts of legal documentation. But what if we lose it? How do we “prove” our identity? Could we? Are we our own construction or God’s -- a simple accumulation of settled assumptions or a bureaucrat-stamped license to exist?

Editor, Please stop the constant bashing of President Trump in the editorials that you choose to publish. This has become divisive and can also be described as bullying of those who support our president. The editorials chosen do not just go after the president, they personally go after the president’s supporters who are a large majority in this area. In the past, both sides of an argument were presented on the editorial pages of most newspapers. This is no longer the case, and, as such, the editor has the unfair advantage of publishing views that fit their personal narrative. Objectivity is definitely a thing of the past with journalists. An alternative is just to not publish an editorial. Current is a local newspaper and primarily presents local issues. There is no reason for a political editorial article, especially since the topics chosen are so one-sided. I am tired of reading this paper and then getting upset when I reach the one editorial selected to be published. Dee Frazell, Zionsville

Better early than never Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I called my friend Auri, a computer geek, and asked him to help me with my successful website, HUMOR which currently is attracting up to three visitors a month. To have a strong online presence, you have to spend several hours a day Facebooking, tweeting and updating your blog. This means cutting yourself off from the outside world. But that’s the price you pay for being social. Auri and I decided to meet in a few days for coffee. I wrote the time and date on my trusty mini legal pad. Then I put a sticky note on my bathroom mirror where I know I’ll see it several times the night before. This system seldom fails, although one day I accidentally grabbed a list from the previous day and started repeating everything on it. I’m glad I have an honest barber. Auri and I chose the following Tuesday, at 9 a.m., at Starbucks. Auri entered this on his Google calendar, which automatically synched to my AOL calendar, telling me the time and location of the appointment. I don’t like it when other people tell me where to go -- but that also was happening way before computers. Right after our call, a “meeting alert” appeared on my computer screen. The message came with a selection of colors to distinguish it from other appointments on my calendar, except I didn’t have any. Brown seemed appropriate for java, but something more festive felt right. I went with red. The following morning, I got an “Invitation Update.” Auri wanted to change our Tuesday breakfast from 9 to 8:30 a.m. I agreed to the new time, adding that I was changing the color of our meeting from red to green. Although I’m sure this didn’t matter to Auri, the Dept. of Homeland Security was probably relieved. The update included a link to

MapQuest, informing me how long it would take to get there from my house, which was either 3 minutes away, 4 minutes away, 7 minutes away or 8 minutes away, depending on which nearby Starbucks I was going to. On Tuesday morning, I got another cellphone alert that my meeting was in an hour. Then, at 8:15, I was dinged again, warning that I only had 15 minutes. I rushed out the door, afraid that if I were late, news of my tardiness would go viral. I reached Starbucks at 8:25. Auri hadn’t arrived yet. I waited. And waited. I called his cellphone just before 9 a.m. He answered right away. “Auri, where are you? I’m at Starbucks on 82nd,” I said. He responded, “Oh, my gosh, was that today?”

Discounts that cost you money — Retailers have latched onto a way to offer giant percentages off that are mesmerizing to shoppers but are not what they seem. The pitch: You get a gigantic discount, typically up to 70 percent off, but the fine print notes that you get that discount only on a second or third of multiple similar items. Signs in store windows and on store shelves (and online) shout out the percentage and shoppers often don’t do the math to see just how unimpressive these offers typically are. For example, based on an offer of “buy two, get the third 50 percent off,” you take three items to checkout, where you then receive a total discount of 17 percent ­because you pay full price for the first two items.

Overseas friends create meditation podcast

Handling Hand & Arm Pain

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com Kara Goodwin, a Carmel resident and yoga teacher at Blooming Life Yoga Studio in ZionsPODCAST ville, met Alessandra Kylin, who lives in Sweden, through an online community dedicated to meditation. Goodwin and Kylin learned more about the discipline and became certified meditation teachers. They became friends while taking the same courses and having regular discussions on WhatsApp, a messaging app that allows users to converse overseas. “We were helping each other so much and we started thinking, ‘Maybe we should try to extend this out and see if we can help other people on their meditation journey,’” Goodwin said. “So, we just started recording our conversations.” Goodwin and Kylin created a podcast, “The Meditation Conversation,” in Nov. 2018. The podcast is a conversation-based, downloadable audio show that explores meditation topics. But the show also deals with other topics relating to health and wellness. “We’ve just more and more have been inviting people on to share their stories and kind of inspire people because there are so many paths that bring people to meditation, and differ-

ent things relate to different people,” Goodwin said. When they start each podcast, Goodwin said she and Kylin try to think of ideas and information that would have helped them when they first started meditating. “Meditation is stilling the body and the mind while raising your conscious awareness,” Goodwin said. “So, it’s really accessible to anybody, and often many people think their mind is too restless, so they don’t think they’d be a good candidate for meditation. But that’s a really good indicator that you need meditation.” The podcast is available on multiple platforms, such as Spotify, iTunes and Google Play.

Lippia to join Carmel Symphony Orchestra for Sinatra & Friends By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel’s Center for the Performing Arts seems the perfect fit for Steve Lippia. CONCERT “I inhabit the world of the Great American Songbook,” Lippia said. The Center for the Performing Arts is home to the Great American Songbook Foundation. Lippia will appear with the Carmel Symphony Orchestra for his Sinatra & Friends show at 8 p.m. Jan. 11 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts. Lippia previously performed with the CSO in 2009. “One of the first shows I brought to the pops market was a show called ‘Simply Sinatra’ because of the amazing name recognition, the popularity and the great music he’s known for,” Lippa said. “That’s usually the first show (promoters) will pick.” If he returns to the same venue, Lippia does a show featuring songs by Tony Bennett, Bobby Darin, Vic Damone and Nat King Cole. “This show will have some of those elements,” Lippia said. “I’ve not seen the Palladium, so this will be a great introduction to what is supposed to be an amazing facility.” Lippia said there are usually 18 to 20 songs in his set. “I always bring a little extra music, and if we are running ahead of schedule, we include those songs,” he said. “I really like the big ballads. I think they are more interesting. The arrangements are a little more inspiring with the ballads. I like the uptempo and medium-tempo songs a lot, but there is something about those ballads that intrigue people. Those are the ones that give the lyricists time to shine.

Steve Lippia will perform at the Palladium. (Submitted photo)

“When you think of the music of Johnny Mercer, Sammy Cahn and Cole Porter, all the greats showed their best stuff particularly with ballads.” Lippia said audiences always like Sinatra’s blockbuster hits. He worked for a long time with a former Sinatra conductor, Vincent Falcone Jr. “He told me Sinatra was so tired of singing ‘Strangers in the Night’ and was happy when ‘New York, New York’ came along,” Lippia said. “So, he was able to ignore ‘Strangers in the Night,’ or he asked his arrangers to put together a shorter version of it.” In addition to “New York, New York,” Lippia said the two most requested songs are “Fly Me to the Moon” and “Summer Wind.” “I get an informal survey when I

meet people after the show,” Lippia said. “It’s an audience-driven show. I want to make sure they hear most of the songs they expect to hear, but I also want to sneak in a song or two they might not expect me to perform.” Although the Las Vegas resident has had long-term engagements in Las Vegas and Atlantic City, Lippia prefers to tour, traveling all across the U.S. and internationally. “Residency engagements are a great thing financially, but it can get a little tiresome,” Lippia said. “Just when you think everything is going great and attendance is super, then there is some merger or acquisition, or some kind of change at the top. They’ll say, ‘Wow, you are doing great, now get out.’” Lippia worked with Janna Hymes in Williamsburg (Va.) when she was music director of the Williamsburg Symphony Orchestra. Hymes became CSO music director in 2017. She stepped down as Williamsburg’s music director in May 2019. “It was one of my favorite pop shows I ever did, and I’ve done hundreds of them,” Hymes said. “Some of them are the original Nelson Riddle arrangements. They are just incredible. When we did them, the audience was so excited because he has the same inflection as Sinatra. What’s great about Steve is his Rat Pack rhythm. He’s a terrific singer, great entertainer and he tells good stories.” In addition to the concert, the Rat Pack Party, a ‘50s-era cocktail party, is set for 6:45 p.m. The Palladium party will feature period cocktails, finger food and Sinatra-style music. Period attire is optional. Admission is $20. For more, visit carmelsymphony. org.

Cash tribute concert set editorial@youarecurrent.com For the past 12 years, James Garner and his band have faithfully recreated Johnny Cash’s biggest hits with stunning accuracy. “A Tribute to Johnny Cash” is set for 3 p.m. Jan. 12 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. Garner previously performed at The Tarkington in September 2018. The group plays all of Cash’s hits, such as “Folsom Prison Blues,” “Ring of Fire” and “I Walk the Line.” Garner and his band have performed more than 500 professional shows. In addition to performing across the United States, Garner’s group has released three full-length albums, making it the most recorded and published Johnny Cash tribute show in the nation.

Vareen ready to step out at Palladium By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com As Ben Vareen’s stage, film and TV career has spanned 50-plus years, the triple threat PERFORMANCE actor/singer/ dancer is identified for different roles by various generations. “I get tickled. I still get people saying I grew up to you on ‘Zoobilee Zoo,’ or I saw you on ‘The Muppet Show’ or ‘The Mike Douglas Show,’” said Vareen, laughing. Nothing, however, is quite like performing in his own show. “That’s gold. That’s the reward,” Vareen said of being on stage. “My show is my gratitude performance to my audience. They’ll see singing and dancing from the shows I’ve done and shows that I’ve wished I’ve done. I pay tribute to artists, my friends. It’s an evening of celebration of life. If I do my job, I hope to inspire somebody. “What is a blessing for me is I get to spread the word of love and unity.” The “Steppin’ Out with Ben Vareen” tour will stop at 8 p.m. Jan. 18 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. “I’m coming and celebrating with Michael Feinstein, who is keeping alive and preserving the Great American Songbook,” Vareen said. Feinstein is the director of the Center and founder of the Palladium-based Great American Songbook Foundation. “We have a mutual friend, Liza Minnelli,” Vareen said. “Michael used to come out to my house rehearsing his piano and learning the music of the Gershwins, long before he became Michael Feinstein when he was just Michael.” Vareen, 73, received a lifetime achievement award from New York’s Gold Coast Arts Center late last year. “It’s always humbling and takes me by surprise because I’m busy doing the work,” he said.

Musical in “Pippin” in 1973. He was nominated for an Emmy for his role in the 1977 “Roots” miniseries. He recently had roles in “Bull” and “Magnum P.I.” “When a TV role comes up that’s right, we do it. I’ll go to Timbuktu if the role is right,” Vareen said. Vareen works with an advocacy group, Americans for the Arts, which lobbies Congress and other officials to maintain public support for arts and arts education. “I speak on the arts every chance I get,” he said. “The arts are the essence of our life. They are cutting away the arts everywhere and we have to stop them from doing that because our children are suffering.” Vareen is working with a group called Care For the Homeless, which helps provide free medical treatment to the homeless. “I did a movie (‘Time Out of Mind’) based on the homeless,” Vareen said. “I learned a lot about the homeless. It’s about me getting into the arena and making my voice heard. Hopefully, in my little way, I change it and make life better for somebody. I can’t solve the whole problem. We must solve it together, but in my little way, I’ll do my turn.”

Current provides excellent value and reach with both its print and digital offerings. I feel confident Current’s weekly newspaper helps O’Malia’s Living draw customers from across the six northern markets it covers. The targeted email campaigns increase visitors to my website, giving me the opportunity to gain new customers. These results are why I have Current’s print and digital solutions in my advertising plans for 2020.

Address: 9709 E. 116th St., Fishers What to get: Miller Farm Chicken Hash Price: $14 Anna’s take: This was my first trip to Rize, a breakfast, brunch and lunch restaurant at The Yard at Fishers District, and I was thrilled with the chef-created options. I tried several items, and my favorite was Miller Farm Chicken Hash, which is a crispy potato cake topped with a chicken and beech mushroom mix, sautéed with a tomato fennel gravy. It’s all topped with a sunny-side up duck egg and a side of pickled onions. I enjoy

duck eggs because my parents have a small duck farm in northern Westfield and I grew up eating duck eggs. Miller Farm Chicken Hash was a great savory brunch option. I also tried the chia seed pudding bowl ($10), a vegan breakfast bowl with coconut milk chia pudding, house-made strawberry preserves, house-made granola, Marcona almonds, dried fruit, fresh berries and peanut butter. For a savory breakfast option, try the egg tart ($11), a delicious egg custard nestled in a pastry shell and topped with roasted vegetables, spinach, mushrooms and pickled red onions with a hibiscus mustard shmear with a bright splash of color. Suggested pairings: For those who enjoy an alcoholic beverage with brunch, try the Rize Bloody Mary ($10), or, for something sweeter, try the Rize and Shine Mocha ($9).

The Fishers Arts Council recently announced the opening of its new exhibit space, The Alcove. It will be home to artists for exhibits lasting three months rather than the normal one-month exhibits at The Art Gallery at City Hall. The name The Alcove was selected after a contest where Facebook friends of Fishers Arts Council were asked to name the space. The final name was selected by the FAC Board from the list of names provided. For the first exhibit in 2020, FAC presents the work of Gale Sturm, who enjoys painting a wide variety of subjects. As a teacher at Lawrence Central High School, Sturm concentrated on designing and building stage sets for plays and musicals. He designed more than 150 sets for school plays and musicals, community theater and children’s theater. FAC will have a joint reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Jan. 10 for Strum and Jeanette Pomeroy Parssi, who will be this month’s featured artist. For more, visit FishersArtsCouncil.org.

Geneva, Switzerland is world-famous for the skill of its many watchmakers. Until recently, it TRAVEL also was famous as the site of the world’s largest clock. By the end of the 15th century, Geneva was home to a large number of talented goldsmiths, fashioning enameled gold jewelry pieces that were in demand throughout Europe. All that changed in 1541, when John Calvin, the strict religious reformer, declared himself the head of the newly formed Republic of Geneva. Believing the wearing of jewelry to be a form of idolatry, Calvin outlawed both the making and wearing of gold jewelry. Geneva’s talented jewelers were suddenly unemployed. Fortunately, a group of Huguenots, Protestants fleeing France to avoid religious persecution, settled in Geneva and brought their watchmaking skills with them. Soon, Geneva’s once-idle jewelers were making high-quality watches. By the 18th century, 600 watchmakers were exporting 600,000 watches a year from Geneva to the remainder of Europe, Asia and the American Personal Trusts and Estates Ad

colonies. Geneva’s watchmaking capacity reached its peak just after World War II. In 1955, to recognize Geneva’s status as the watchmaking capital of the world, the city erected a huge clock on the western side of the English Garden, just south of Lake Geneva. The face of the L’horloge Fleurie (Flower Clock), including the clock numerals, is created on the lawn from about 6,500 flowers and plants, redesigned and reconstructed once each season by local florists. The clock face is 16 feet in diameter and 59 feet in circumference, earning it the title of the world’s largest clock until it was surpassed in 2005 by a clock in Tehran, Iran. The Flower Clock’s 8-footlong second hand remains the longest in the world. The underground mechanism is linked to a satellite, allowing the huge hands to display the exact time, for which Geneva’s watches remain famous.
