Lawmakers discuss upcoming bills at virtual breakfast By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com The OneZone Chamber of Commerce conducted a virtual presentation Jan. 8 for local state senators and repLEGISLATURE resentatives to discuss upcoming bills for the legislative session. The breakfast typically is held at Conner Prairie in Fishers but was presented virtually because of the COVID-19 pandemic. District 21 Sen. Jim Buck (R-Kokomo), District 24 Rep. Donna Schaibley (R-Carmel), District 31 District 29 Sen. J.D. Ford (D-Indianapolis), District 20 Sen. Scott Baldwin (R-Noblesville) and several others presented at the event. They discussed some of the following proposed legislation: DONNA SCHAIBLEY Schaibley’s bills are specific to health care costs and Hamilton County courts. One bill proposes an all-payer claims database in which a portal is available for health care consumers to shop for services based on cost and quality and compare the costs between providers. Schaibley “I have another bill that deals with the consolidation of health care within the state, and it will require the attorney general to look at any mergers or acquisitions by hospitals and give its approval to make sure there’s not a monopoly or reducing of competition in that area,” Schaibley said. Schaibley also has authored a bill for the creation of an additional court in Hamilton County because of population growth and one servicing endangered adults. “(The endangered adults bill) will provide certain additional services to people who call the fire department for emergency services,” Schaibley said. “It will allow fire departments to do follow-up work with them and help get them community services to benefit them and link them to services they need and hopefully provide them with better quality of life and also possibly reduce the service calls because they’re actually
getting what they need outside of emergency services.”

SCOTT BALDWIN Baldwin serves on the education committee and said one of his bills will correct the funding model for virtual education. Earlier this year, school districts learned that if a certain percentage of their students attended school through virtual instruction, Baldwin they wouldn’t receive full state funding for that student. “I think there’s broad support for making certain those schools are fully funded even though they could be considered virtual,” Baldwin said. Baldwin also is co-sponsoring a bill establishing more oversight for law enforcement, such as a five-member state board to oversee Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Dept. to reduce political influences. For more on that bill, visit youarecurrent. com/?p=198574. Another bill Baldwin said he is excited about is expanding broadband in rural communities. “There are a lot of problems in the rural communities with our agricultural folks being able to get access to the internet service they need to study the data they collect on their fields,” Baldwin said. “We have some problems with our health care systems having access, education (systems) having access. There are kids pulling up to schools or McDonald’s to get Wi-Fi so they can do their homework.” Baldwin referred to broadband connectivity across rural communities as a “$2 billion problem.” “We maybe have $100 or $200 million for it, and while I applaud that and support it, it might be like firing cannons into tornados as it relates to the big problem,” Baldwin said. Baldwin then referenced a bill that would empower redevelopment commissions to fund local broadband problems locally.

Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, the Boone County Economic Development Corp. had one of its best years in PANDEMIC 2020, according to Molly Whitehead, the corporation’s executive director. “Even though we obviously had challenges last year, I believe, actually, 2020 was one of our most successful economic development years,” Whitehead said during the meeting. Whitehead Last year, the Boone County EDC closed 10 deals with companies it estimates will create $235 million of new capital investment, the second-highest figure the corporation has ever projected in one year. Combined, Whitehead said the Boone County EDC estimates the new deals would have a $17 million impact on the county during the next 10 years. In addition to attracting companies to the county, the Boone County EDC has supported small business, especially during the pandemic, with its micro-loan program, which has been renamed the Propel Program. Since spring 2020, the program has loaned tens of thousands of dollars to county businesses in need of financial relief because of the COVID-19 pandemic. “When we hit the pandemic back in March, we had loaned out most of the money and had only about $10,000 in that account,” Whitehead said. “We raised over $150,000 last year in public and private funds for that and have loaned out about $110,000 so far. We have had a couple more requests come in the door lately, so there is still demand for that.” Whitehead said a pleasant surprise from the pandemic has been the success of the Boone County EDC’s virtual job fairs. “People are getting hired,” Whitehead said. “I think it is taking away some of the stigma that goes around job fairs, and we hope to have an announcement in the next couple of weeks over some additional job trainings that will be newly available to Boone County.” For more, including a list of upcoming virtual job fairs, visit betterinboone.org.

COMEBACK PATIENT OF THE MONTH This is one in a series of case studies of triumph over injury. For previous installments, visit www.methodistsports.com.
Andy Card is the founder and CEO of Klipsch Card Athletic Facilities.
BACKGROUND: Andy Card is the founder and CEO of Klipsch Card Athletic Facilities. “We develop, design, and operate youth athletic facilities nationwide,” he said. “I also have ownership in several restaurants and a development company, and I’m also on the racing team with Tony Stewart for which Tony was the driver in the Indy Racing League.” He and his wife, Marti, have five children (three girls, two boys) and two Goldendoodles, Carlton and Chloe. In his spare time, he enjoys traveling, boating and fishing, “but my true passion is spending time with my family and friends.” Andy’s injury occurred one day while he was stretching. “I have practiced martial arts for many years, and I have learned many stretching techniques. I was getting ready for a run, and my meniscus tore. I went a long time without any treatment, bearing the pain, but eventually, it prevented me from doing the things that I love that also keep me active. I finally decided to get my knee fixed.”
WHY MSM: “Because of my ownership and involvement in indoor athletic facilities, I knew many customers and athletes that had great success in overcoming injuries with Methodist Sports Medicine. The care that I received from day one was fantastic; as a business owner, I pay very close attention to how other businesses are run from A to Z. Dr. Maratt spent a significant amount of time talking to me about exactly what would happen. Dr. Maratt was nothing short of Picasso when he operated on my knee. The staff at Methodist Sports Medicine was highly educated on how to make my recovery as fast and smooth as possible, especially the rehab care that I received at their facility at Finch Creek Fieldhouse in Noblesville. Scott Hamersly, my Physical Therapist, was fantastic. If anyone is ever in need of orthopedic care of any kind, I highly suggest Methodist Sports Medicine; they truly are a 10 out of 10, the best in the industry.”
THE JOURNEY: Andy tried to manage his pain with medications and bracing, which got him through an incredibly busy period for him. Once it became apparent that Andy’s knee arthritis would continue to limit him, Dr. Maratt developed a plan for Andy’s knee replacement surgery and recovery. Dr. Joseph Maratt Scott Hamersly “We utilized modern pain management techniques that started before surgery to minimize pain after surgery, prevented injury to the thigh muscles by not applying a tourniquet, and used computer navigation to optimally resurface his knee for a result that feels as natural as possible,” said Dr. Maratt. “We had him up and walking hours after surgery and home the same day. He was doing very well and enjoying being active when I made a telehealth appointment with him at 8 weeks. I expect he will be fully functionally recovered by 3-4 months.”
Scott Hamersly, Director of Rehabilitation Services at MSM, led Andy’s journey to recovery after surgery. “Andy bought into the concept that surgery alone is not the sole solution, but the recovery and rehab afterward is what gets your life back,” said Scott. The MSM team looks forward to Andy’s continued progress and is excited to see that he is already back to doing the activities that he loves. THE MSM TEAM: The MSM team included Dr. Joseph Maratt, Fellowship Trained Hip and Knee Replacement Surgeon, and Scott Hamersly, MS, PT, ATC, CSCS and Director of Rehabilitation Services.

Ensuring equity in health care Commentary by Dennis Murphy The COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare persistent, systemic racial disparities in communities across the United IU HEALTH States, including the lasting effect of inequality in medical care and the resulting mistrust among communities of color. Recently, IU Health has faced questions about racial inequities in our own health care system, including questions about the quality and equity of Dr. Susan Moore’s clinical and personal care at one of our hospitals. These issues are serious and raise questions that must be answered thoroughly, independently and transparently. Dr. Moore’s death was tragic, and we extend our deepest sympathy to her family and friends. As the leader of an organization that is deeply committed to equity, empathy and improving the health of underserved communities, I, too, seek answers to these questions. Dr. Moore’s family deserves these answers. And the communities we serve need these answers in order to be confident that they will receive clinical and personal care that is evidence-based, empathetic and appropriate, regardless of race, religion, gender, status or background. We have initiated an independent, third-party review of Dr. Moore’s case, as well as our overall patient care protocols, communication and procedures. The review, which is already under way, is co-chaired by Dr. Jeannette E. South-Paul, the chair of the department of family medicine at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, and Dr. David Wilkes, dean of the University of Virginia’s School of Medicine. The pair are among the most respected medical thought leaders in the country, in both clinical care and cultural competence. Undoubtedly, there’s much work ahead. But we won’t shy away from our commitments. We have the opportunity and the responsibility to create meaningful change to eliminate racial disparities in health care.

ZIONSVILLE GATHERS FOR PRAYER VIGIL AHEAD OF INAUGURATION
Per son a l T r us ts & Es tat es
Zionsville officials and residents gather outside Zionsville Town Hall Jan. 19 for a prayer vigil ahead of Joe Biden’s presidential inauguration. Residents prayed for a peaceful transfer of power, unity and national healing following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Local religious leaders and Zionsville students spoke at the event, including Zionsville Community High School senior Grace Gogis and Zionsville Middle School student Kellen Baker. Zionsville Police Chief Michael Spears, who spoke at the vigil, said, “It’s as if we are going through a societal storm, but just like real storms, storms never last.

ZFD PRACTICES ‘CRUCIAL’ DECONTAMINATION EFFORTS DURING FIRE FIGHTER CANCER AWARENESS MONTH Zionsville Fire Chief James VanGorder and Local 5159 President Lt. Steve Hayes have essential items to decontaminate firefighters and their gear. Occupational cancer is the leading cause of line-of-duty deaths for firefighters. That is why January is Fire Fighter Cancer Awareness Month, a designation by the International Association of Fire Fighters. Exposure to cancer-causing carcinogens is not uncommon with the wide variety of fires firefighters encounter on a regular basis, and the steps taken after fighting fires are crucial, according to the ZFD. In 2019, more than 75 percent of the names of firefighters added to the IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial Wall of Honor in Colorado Springs, Colo., were of members who died from occupational cancer.

We never knew how Tommy would show up. There was the wheelchair for several weeks. Then he clumped in with a walker for a while and ultimately PLAIN TALK came through the door with a cane. Through the years, Tommy Miscoweic underwent multiple surgeries — 12 in just eight months. Hips, knees and shoulders were all replaced. Then there was that fourmonth period when he was forced to lay flat on his back while antibiotics battled a raging infection. There were eight of us who met Wednesday mornings over coffee to share our faith and the daily events of our lives. Sometimes, we’d get a text message from Tommy saying he couldn’t make it because his shoulder was acting up, or he had to see the doctor about his knee or hip. He said he would pray for us, and we always said a prayer for him. On the days he joined us, he never stopped smiling or telling corny jokes. Even though his body was failing him, he never lost his sense of humor.
Being funny came naturally to Tommy. For years, he was Chee Chee, a professional clown with Smiles Unlimited. He spent hours cheering up sick kids in the hospital or bringing smiles to nursing home residents while wearing his oversized pants, fright wig, red nose and gigantic necktie.
He continued to meet with us on Wednesdays until three weeks ago. Tuesday evening, he fell at his home and was rushed to the hospital with internal bleeding. He died the next morning while we were sharing our faith and wondering why we hadn’t heard from him. The other part of Tommy’s ministry was his profession as a barber. He especially loved cutting kids’ hair. “It was fun to joke with them, make them laugh,” he told us. “I shared my faith with them and with their parents. They always wanted suckers, and I pretended I didn’t know what they were talking about.” If anyone asked about his ailments and the pain he suffered, he just smiled and
shook his head. “There are a lot of folks who have it worse,” he said. He believed it. Maybe, but Tommy’s pain ultimately forced him to give up his clown ministry. And when he could no longer stand at his barber chair, he put away his clippers and retired. He continued to meet with us on Wednesdays until three weeks ago. Tuesday evening, he fell at his home and was rushed to the hospital with internal bleeding. He died the next morning while we were sharing our faith and wondering why we hadn’t heard from him. His friends numbered in the hundreds, and even those who didn’t know him as a friend will smile whenever they remember the antics of Chee Chee the clown or the silliness of getting a haircut. Tommy Miscoweic was 65. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife. He is the author of “The Dark Ages of My Youth ... and Times More Recent.” Contact him at ward.degler@ gmail.com.

Capitol riot inspires UHS seminars By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Following the Jan. 6 pro-Trump riot at the U.S. Capitol, University High School teachers knew students EDUCATION would have questions, so they quickly formulated a series of seminars about the event and related topics. “Though conversations among students and teachers about these events are ongoing, and likely will be for weeks to come, the seminar series was designed to be a one-time thing,” said Ashley Crockett-Lohr, director of communications for the Carmel-based high school. “Our faculty designed 11 different sessions with the idea that each student will have different needs and different questions about these events, and the seminar setup allowed students to choose the best fit for them.” Crockett-Lohr said the school’s faculty discussed how they would support their students in this politically unusual time. “The idea our teachers kept coming back to was this, ‘Meet them where they are,’” Crockett-Lohr said. As a result of University’s hybrid schedule, half the students attended one session Jan. 8 and the other half attended Jan. 12. “I think many of our students are still processing the enormity of these events,” Crockett-Lohr said. “It is quite a human thing to be busy and overstimulated but having dedicated time to process and reflect proved valuable. Students who sought to gain new information about the events were especially drawn to ‘Social Psychology,’ ‘Conspiracy Theories’ and ‘U.S. Presidents: Coming & Going,’ among many others.”

Hotel Tango opens Zionsville location By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com Hotel Tango operators and Boone County and Zionsville officials celebrated the grand opening Jan. 14 of the company’s tasting room in Zionsville, the culmination of a project to cater to the company’s target market while expanding its footprint in central Indiana. “We kind of played around with the idea of what is now our third tasting room for a long time,” said Ginger Barnes, Hotel Tango’s vice president of operations. “What attracted us to Zionsville was that it is very much our demographic. It’s young professionals, young families. Then it also has a smattering of older folks and retirees, and that’s a great demographic for us to hit. What we loved about Zionsville is it is still so quaint. It’s super approachable. It’s not a stuffy place to live. We felt this was a really good home for us.” Hotel Tango operates its flagship distillery and tasting room in Indianapolis and has another tasting room in Fort Wayne. After years of dabbling in distilling his own whiskey, Travis Barnes, who is Ginger’s brother, and his wife, Hilary Barnes, decided to create Hotel Tango. Travis, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who completed three tours in Operation Iraqi Freedom, and his wife named the company in a nod to the NATO phonetic alphabet and the first letters of their first names: Hotel for Hilary and Tango for Travis. The couple opened the company’s Indianapolis location in Fletcher Place in 2014. The company’s Fort Wayne location was independently launched by the company’s vice president of sales and his wife before being purchased by Hotel Tango within the past year, Ginger said. Hotel Tango’s Indianapolis location was originally envisioned as a production site with a small tasting room where people could sample spirits. “People don’t want to come in on a Tuesday afternoon and do straight shots of vodka or moonshine, so they would ask for mixers and things like that,” Ginger said of the company’s first months in business. After receiving feedback, Hotel Tango began specializing in cocktails and mixed
dient or sauce mixture. In addition, the nearly 4,000-square-foot Zionsville location will include a dog-friendly outdoor patio, a valuable amenity during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic, company officials said. Ginger said the company hopes enclosed vinyl walls for the patio will help better utilize the space during the cold winter months. The Zionsville tasting room will be open daily from 4 to 11 p.m. Company officials said the site will likely extend its weekend hours at some point in the future. Bottled spirits also are sold at the site. “We just hope that we can offer (a) friendly, welcoming atmosphere with something that’s new, interesting and exciting,” Ginger said.

Hotel Tango specializes in unique cocktails and mixed drinks.
drinks. “All of our cocktails are made from scratch,” Ginger said. “We make all of the simple syrups, all of the infusions. Every ingredient that goes into the cocktail, we make from scratch.” At the start of each season, with help from bartenders and staff, Hotel Tango creates a new drink menu. Bartenders submit ideas for unique drinks they’d like to see on the menu. For example, a bartender suggested a drink containing banana and papaya this winter, and a kitchen manager took
the ingredients, added cloves and created a simple syrup that is now used in a number of the company’s current drink offerings. The Zionsville tasting room will feature a rotating seasonal drink menu that will be similar to the company’s other two locations. The Zionsville location also features the company’s largest selection of food among its three locations, Ginger said. It will specialize in what company officials called “elevated pub food,” with each menu item incorporating one of the company’s spirits in some way, whether it is an ingre-
PANDEMIC CHALLENGES Operating Hotel Tango hasn’t been easy amid the COVID-19 pandemic. “It’s certainly been a challenge,” said Ginger Barnes, Hotel Tango’s vice president of operations. “I think the biggest challenge has been the uncertainty. It’s the balance of wanting to keep our staff and pay them a livable wage but also keep them safe. And those two things really came into conflict this year.” Zach Stewart, the general manager of the company’s Zionsville tasting room, applauded the company’s response to challenges posed by the pandemic. “I’m a firm believer that this is as oneof-a-kind as it gets,” Stewart said. “This company cares about its employees. They care about the community. They care about their customers, and that’s really hard to find during a pandemic, let alone in the service industry altogether. Service industry people are hurting right now, and we all feel very fortunate to be working here with everything that’s going on. “This company has been able to retain its people, and it’s one of the few company’s that offers benefits to service industry professionals. That’s second to none.”

Nonprofit offers programs, resources to Parkinson’s patients By Rick Morwick rick@youarecurrent.com
E
ach year, more than 60,000 people in the U.S. are diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. And each year, the Indiana Parkinson Foundation provides support and resources for Hoosiers who suffer from the debilitating neurological disorder. Addie Cunningham, who founded the IPF in 2009, encourages anyone who is impacted by the incurable disease — be it a patient, family member or caregiver — to reach out to the Noblesville-headquartered nonprofit. The IPF offers a range of services and resources, including the innovative CLIMB program, which focuses on functional physical exercises and activities to reeducate muscles that are affected by the disease. “The CLIMB was built on a combination of physical therapy, aerobic exercise and boxing,” Cunningham said. “The program has grown to now offer big movement postural therapy and balance, yoga, Egoscue (therapy), speech therapy and weight training. Not only does CLIMB offer many services led by experienced trainers, it is also a safe haven of support and encouragement for people with Parkinson’s and their families. “People are being changed at the CLIMB, mentally, physically and spiritually.” But CLIMB isn’t the only resource available through the IPF, whose mission is to improve the daily lives of Parkinson’s patients. The average age of onset is 60, according to The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “Outside of our CLIMB program, we also offer support groups, educational events and resources,” Cunningham said. “Our support groups are available to caregivers, people with Parkinson’s and other family members. During these groups, we have speakers come in and talk on different Parkinson’s resources or help answer questions about the disease. We also allow for open-forum time at our meetings so people can discuss and learn from one another. “Educational events happen about four times a year and provide lots of

great resources for families and people with Parkinson’s disease.” In April, which is Parkinson’s Disease Awareness Month, the IPF is conducting its annual Choose to Move: Race to Beat Parkinson’s run/ walk fundraiser, which includes a live race at Witten Park in Fishers on April 17 and a virtual option for anyone who can’t participate in the live event. All proceeds benefit IPF programs and services, including the CLIMB, which is offered in Carmel, Noblesville, Indianapolis and nine other communities across the state. “If you know someone who has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s and is looking for a community to come alongside them to provide resources and programs to help them in their Parkinson’s journey, contact the Indiana Parkinson Foundation today,” said Cunningham, adding that the organization also welcomes volunteers and financial donors. “If you feel led to make a donation towards the mission and the heart of IPF, you can make a donation at our website,” Cunningham said. Globally, someone is diagnosed with Parkinson’s every nine seconds, and approximately 10 million people are living with the disease, including approximately 16,00 Hoosiers. The disease is the second-most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer’s disease, according to the national Parkinson’s Foundation.

Summer Legs Are Made In The Winter®
For spring gardens, order seeds now By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com
U
rban Farmer owner Noah Herron said amid the COVID-19 pandemic, seed sales on his online site soared in 2020. He’s already seeing similar trends this year. “Right now, starting the beginning of January is kind of when garden seed orders come in and people sit down with catalogs and start to plan out their garden and decide what they want,” said Herron, Herron a Westfield resident. “When everything happened with COVID, seed sales online began skyrocketing and there was a long delay to get seeds.” Herron said because of the increased traffic, at one point last year Urban Farmer fell behind one month on shipping. “That was the same with pretty much all other seed companies, so starting off this year we are already starting to see a delay on shipping, so I definitely recommend that if you’re planning a garden this spring to put your orders in very soon,” Herron said. Herron said cool-season crops like
broccoli and cauliflower can be started indoors in February and placed outside in March. He said to plant warmer season plants like tomatoes and peppers inside in March. Gardeners don’t need grow lights or a greenhouse to start their growing season early. Herron said most people use either an electric blanket or heating pad below seed-starter trays until the plants germinate, and if those aren’t available, Herron recommends a place available in most kitchens. “If you don’t have any of those, on top of the refrigerator is a warmer spot to start seeds,” Herron said. “Plant the seeds in a grow medium inside and keep the soil somewhat moist and put them on top of the refrigerator, and once they start to have germination, you can move them to a sunny location.” Windows are a great option for light, Herron said, but during the winter, they allow the soil to get cold, which can be harmful to the plants. “If you’re going to do that, it’s best to bring them away from the window at nighttime and put them back on top of the fridge,” he said.

Seniors, is it the time to move? Commentary by Alan Symons
A
s the COVID-19 vaccine is being rolled out to senior communities, now is the time to upgrade your life and stop the stress. Too many issues are going to pop up due to the fallout of the pandemic, from financial stress, to health care and political problems. Now is the time to consider how to be happy and enjoy stress-free living. Many people are wondering, “Are senior living communities, including assisted living and independent living, safe?” Now that the vaccine is rolled out in most of the senior communities, the answer is a great big yes. The communities that have been vaccinated are the safest and most fulfilling places for an older adult to live. While moving into assisted or independent living during a pandemic could be perceived as a challenging decision, we believe now may be the smartest time to make that move. If in doubt that you should move, just think about the lonely isolation winter will bring. Older adults have become more isolated as a result of precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, with activities canceled, unease about being in public settings and favorite places closed. Senior living communities have invested in activities with opportunities for indoor exercise, gourmet dining, fitness, lifelong learning,
indoor cinema and more, while doing so in a safe environment. I have built senior independent living communities to the highest and safest standard and have learned a thing or two about how to make your life much more fulfilling and enjoyable — not to mention increase your longevity by as much as 43 percent. Socialization: Communities are generally designed for people to get to know people of similar and different interests. Wellness: Senior living communities offer a medical clinic on-site along with services like physical therapy, fitness centers and outdoor spaces to roam, garden, swim and take the dog for walks. Having health care and wellness services just for residents, fully integrated into the living community, with staff who take a whole-person approach to care, provides an extra layer of protection and reassurance for a much fuller and healthy life.
Financial knowledge that you are looked after forever: Today, with economic trouble from COVID-19 and uncertainty of the future, it is a good time to sell your home and put the money into an income-safe producing fund. The real estate market is hot in most areas of the country, and now is a good time to realize and lock in that value before something knocks it down. Use the cash from the home sale, income from investments, plus social security, plus other retirement funds, to pay a single monthly fee for a luxurious suite with a kitchen, living room, bedroom, large bath and walk-in closets. Or choose a two-bedroom suite. Stop worrying about being alone at home and facing a break in, roof leaks, shoveling a driveway, fixing a broken pipe. No more cable bills, no more tax bills, no more cooking and cleaning. Let the chef, chauffeur, activities director and housekeeper take over. No more exposure to the unknown. Continued on Page 7

Every person has an emergency button to the front desk. The building is designed to avoid injury. The chef is there to help you maintain a healthy homecooked diet and will follow any dietary needs or desires you may have. Farm-totable is practiced in good communities. You want to know the four things to live up to 43 percent longer, don’t you? Well, here they are. Reduced stress, social interaction, diet and fitness, even if just walking or swimming. You get all these and more living in a senior community. While every community is different, look for these common threads: • Ask to see the various options for suites. • Ask to visit with several people now living in the community. • Take a tour of the facilities and focus on what matters for you. • Stay for a meal, try out the food.

The Lodge: Meet Jean Sobek By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
J
ean Sobek was predicted to be the first female U.S. vice president by her senior class in high school. “But someone beat me to it,” she said with a laugh. Kamala Harris was recently sworn in as the nation’s first female Vice President. Sobek, 96, has lived in Harbour Manor & The Lodge in Noblesville for 14 years. “I like bingo and I like any kind of conversation,” Sobek said. Those conversations have been tougher due to social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic. “The virus has shut down most of that,” she said. “I never dreamed we’d have a worldwide pandemic, but it happened.” The Lodge Life Enrichment Director Stacey Butterfield said Sobek has been a resident since The Lodge opened. “She is soft-spoken, lovely, kind, witty, fun and very gentle and inviting with everyone, especially when we have new members join us,” Butterfield said. “Jean is someone who connects people together. She enjoys including others and appreciates individuality. Differences will not cause dissension with Jean. She will find a way to bring us closer. It is the secret ingredient to holding us together in unprecedented times we are facing today.”
Jean Sobek
LIFE’S TOO SHORT LOVE WHERE YOU LIVE!
Butterfield said Sobek faithfully attends morning exercise sessions. “She has a beautiful voice, too,” Butterfield said. “She’s an avid singer.” Sobek said there were sing-alongs Saturday nights prior to the pandemic. But she still participates in service projects. “We worked on a project to make masks,” said Sobek, part of a mask brigade who cuts fabric for the masks. Sobek, who was born on a farm in Iowa, graduated from the University of Iowa. She majored in psychology and then worked in sales at IBM until she was married in 1949. “They wouldn’t keep women who were married,” Sobek said. “We’ve come a long way.” Sobek said she was active in the League of Women Voters. She was living in Munster when she moved to The Lodge to be closer to her son, Joseph Jr., a Carmel resident. Sobek’s husband, Joseph Sobek Sr., died in 2004. He was a member of the U.S. Army Air Corps, flying 50 combat missions as a waist gunner on a B-17 in Europe during World War II. After the war, he played basketball at Notre Dame. Sobek also has two daughters, Christine Sobek, president of Waubonsee Community College in Illinois, and Carol Hyde, who lives in Charlotte, N.C. She has seven grandchildren.

t 76, John Schmid is typically busier than most people his age. Schmid is the director of music at Fairview Presbyterian Church in Indianapolis and chorus master of Indianapolis Opera. He has been with Indianapolis Opera for 37 years and at Fairview for 27 years. Although Schmid stays busy, he was ready to ease his living situation. He moved from his condo when Encore 55+ Boutique Apartments, 6675 E. 75th St., opened in Indianapolis in August 2020. “If something goes wrong, I don’t have to fix it,” he said. “It’s on one floor. I had steps before. I’m on the first floor and I’m not far from the entrance. It’s enough space for me.” Schmid calls the decision to move to Encore 55+ Apartments the best he has ever made. Schmid learned about Encore from his daughter, Jordan, who lives five minutes away. “They’re very well kept, they have a good staff,” Schmid said. “It’s a pleasant, quiet atmosphere. They have different small events for the residents, although I’m probably much busier
than a lot of the residents. I’m in and out a lot more.” Schmid said there is a workout room and plenty of room to walk. “There is a lovely community room and movie room,” Schmid said. “It’s very quiet here. The maintenance is quite good. They are very attentive to things.” Along with the fitness center, there are pickleball and bocce courts. There also is a dog park. Encore concentrates on five areas it calls “High Five 55.” The five areas are Community & Connection, Fitness & Wellness, Learning & Hobbies, Diet & Nutrition and Happiness & Contentment. Not surprisingly, Schmid is ready for the COVID-19 pandemic to end and musical performances to begin. “I’m bored to death,” he said. Schmid, a tenor who has two degrees in voice from Butler University, has performed in and conducted musicals in the past. “I’ve done some musicals and conducted musicals,” he said. Schmid has prepared the Indy Opera choruses for more than 100 productions of more than 60 operas.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT DIABETES AND YOUR HEART
By: Dr. Ali Iqtidar, cardiologist at IU Health North and Saxony Hospitals According to the American Heart Association, adults with diabetes are two to four times more likely to die from heart disease than adults without diabetes. With heart disease being the leading cause of death for men and women, it’s important to understand how diabetes can increase your risk for heart disease. Effects on Heart Health While diabetes is treatable, a long-term effect of high blood sugar is damaged blood vessels and nerves that control your heart. Along with high blood sugar, diabetics are also more likely to have other conditions that increase their risk for heart disease such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides and obesity. Your primary care provider can perform a simple blood test to check your cholesterol and triglycerides. Prevention and Treatment A healthy lifestyle is one of the best ways to prevent your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Exercise helps lower blood pressure, cholesterol and control your weight. Try to aim for 30-minutes of exercise a day. To reduce your sugar and high-saturated fat consumption, make healthy swaps to add more veggies and complex grains into

your diet. Lower alcohol consumption to prevent fluctuations in your blood sugar levels. The U.S. Dietary Guidelines for American Adults suggest up to one standard drink for women and two drinks for men per day. One standard drink includes approximately 14 grams of pure alcohol, which is 12 ounces of regular beer, 5 ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits. Along with preventing your risk for diabetes and heart disease, an overall healthy lifestyle can also help treat and reduce the symptoms of diabetes and heart disease. Make sure you’re eating a balanced diet of fruits, vegetables, protein and whole grains. Your primary care provider is the best person to talk to about treatment plans to get you healthy again. Resources Learning more about diabetes and heart health will help you avoid health complications down the line.

RELIVING S
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
HISTORY Ancestor’s Civil War relics spur Carmel resident’s interest
tan Hurt’s fascination with Civil War artifacts started innocently enough. Hurt, who grew up in Indianapolis, would visit the home where his mother grew up in Ft. Wayne when he was a child. “There was nothing for me to do,” the 82-year-old Carmel resident said. ‘The only thing interesting there was the storeroom, and it had Civil War relics, so that’s what I played with, the rifle and bayonet. It was the only thing that interested a 6-year-old. “I’d immediately go there, get the rifle out and play with it. This went on for a number of years.” The Civil War items belonged to a cousin, Leander Miner, who was a corporal in a Fort Wayne regiment for the Union Army. Miner died of yellow fever a week before the war ended. “I inherited his rifle and sword when my aunt died,” Hurt said. Hurt brought the relics to Indianapolis and put them on display in his bedroom. “It was the first time I got into a display of artifacts,” Hurt said. After a 15-year stint in the U.S. Navy and Naval Reserves, reaching the rank of lieutenant commander, he started a business. He eventually got a house in Indianapolis with a den and put the relics on display. “I thought I would buy some uniforms and things to put around the guns to make it more of a collection,” Hurt said. “We did a lot of entertaining, and people really enjoyed the Civil War room.” Hurt attended a Civil War flea market at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in 2003 and met the commanding officer of Eli Lilly’s reenactment artillery battery. “We get into a long conversation, and a month or two later he asked if I would like to go to Gettysburg,” Hurt said.
Passion leads to reenactments
So, Hurt said that was when he began participating in reenactments. “Through the years, I started collecting more and more stuff besides being in the reenacting,” Hurt said. Continued on Page 13 Stan Hurt shows his display of Civil War artifacts. (Photo by Mark Ambrogi) 55 AND BETTER

Continued from Page 12 As a reenactor, he started bonding with Miner. “That grew as I was reenacting, so I wrote a story about him,” said Hurt, who was then retired from daily operations in the company he owned. After participating for 15 years, Hunt retired from reenacting approximately three years ago. “There gets to a point where you can’t put the tent up anymore,” he said. Hurt started out as a Union lieutenant in Civil War reenacting. “They made me an officer, so I became a staff officer,” he said. “I didn’t carry a rifle. As you live as a Civil War soldier, you do bond with that era and it keeps history alive. That is what reenacting is about, keeping history alive. “It was a very interesting hobby for me for 17 years.” On occasion, Hurt would portray a Confederate soldier. “I have a Confederate uniform, but I don’t display it,” Hurt said. “The more I studied the Civil War and the whole era, I have a real distaste of the Confederates and I don’t want to ever wear their uniform again. Then what they did during Reconstruction and the Ku Klux Klan (was appalling).” Hurt has read many books on the Civil War and the era. “I love journals,” Hurt said. “The way to study the Civil War is to read journals of people that were really there.” Hurt, an Indianapolis Shortridge High School graduate, sold his company, Indiana Supply, which supplied heating and air conditioning parts, in 2007. Hurt and his wife, Sandra, moved to Carmel in 2002. He serves on the Carmel Symphony Orchestra and Songbook Foundation boards. He previously was on the Center for the Performing Arts board. Hurt’s wife released a novel in August 2020 called “Priestess of Pompeii, The Intimate Journey.” She has been fascinated with the art and history of Pompeii for 30 years. “Stan’s passion for the history of the Civil War and the people who lived in those times and my passion for the history of Greek and Roman societies are certainly linked at this moment,” Sandra said. “We can only hope that the lessons learned from generations past will be heeded by generations to come.”

ave you ever woken up in the middle of the night to get a drink of water? You don’t want to wake anyone, and it’s freezing outside of your covers, so you move quickly to the faucet. As you make your way into the bathroom, you struggle to find the light switch in the dark. As you make your next step, your foot catches the edge of the floor mat on the ground, you lose your balance and fall … According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website, each year millions of people, “those 65 and older fall. In fact, more than one out of four older people fall each year, but less than half tell their doctor. Falling once doubles your chances of falling again.” There are many risk factors that contribute to falls, but the good news is there are ways to lower your risk. The following are three common risk factors we have seen over the years at Senior1Care, along with some prevention tips we have found helpful for families: • Use of medications that reduce mental alertness, worsen balance and gait, and cause changes in blood pressure. Prevention tips: Talk with your physician or pharmacist about the common side effects and the need for continued medication(s). Also, maintain an updated list of personal medications, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements. • Lack of physical activity leads to poor muscle tone, decreased
strength, loss of bone mass and flexibility. Prevention tips: Engage regularly in activities designed to increase/maintain muscle and bone strength and to improve balance and flexibility. Wear proper fitting, supportive shoes with low heels or rubber soles. • Environmental hazards in the home. The most common hazard for falls is tripping over objects on the floor, like loose throw rugs. Other factors include poor lighting, lack of or poorly located/mounted grab bars and unsteady furniture. Prevention Tips: Walk through your home and consider nonskid mats/carpets on slick floor surfaces, stable grab bars for support and adequate night lighting, particularly around stairwells, walkways and bathrooms. Instead of furniture, consider using stable assistive devices. Falls do happen to the best of us, and it is important to note that not all falls can be prevented 100 percent of the time. Being aware of some of these risk factors can help keep occurrences less frequent and reduce an unnecessary hospital stay. Patrick Broccolo, CNA, is co-owner of Senior1Care, which provides trained, in-home caregivers who assist with dementia care, homemaker and companion services throughout Hamilton and Boone counties.

When it comes to downsizing, planning is key Commentary by Kristen Howard
L
et’s face it, no one likes to think that they are getting older. Admitting that you might need some assistance in the coming years is never an easy discussion. But no matter where you are in your golden years, planning early is the key. So, why is this important?: • The decisions are yours and no one else’s. • You can clearly identify your wants and needs to your adult children and extended family. • Planning prevents rushed and last-minute decisions. • If your health changes, you are prepared. • It provides time to research your next move and where you would like to live. • It gives you and your loved one’s time to organize and plan, providing peace of mind. Getting started may seem like a daunting task, but here are some things you can do: • If you have adult children, organize a group phone call discussion or live meeting. The more you are all on the same page, the less stress and disputes will occur. • Meet with a senior transition company that can help you with all aspects of your move. The more they can manage for you, the better. • Start researching senior communities or other living options. There are many levels of care to choose from. Make sure your current and future health needs will be met. • When possible, start sorting through your things months ahead and do it one room at a time. By doing so, it will not be as overwhelming as trying to go through everything all at once.

How younger workers can mentor older colleagues Submitted by News and Experts
M
entoring usually refers to a manager, executive or experienced employee guiding a younger person in the workplace, helping them acquire knowledge and new skills that foster professional growth. But with the expanding role of technology in today’s rapidly evolving business climate, a role reversal sometimes takes place – reverse mentorship. That is, older employees are paired with younger ones who teach them about technology – a strong suit for millennials and Gen Z workers, generations who grew up with
technology. Reverse mentoring can be a plus for businesses in bridging generation gaps and knowledge gaps, and also a lifeline for older workers who otherwise might get phased out, said Rod Robertson, managing partner of Briggs Capital (briggscapital.com), international entreRobertson preneur and author of “Winning at Entrepreneurship: Insider’s Tips on Buying, Building, and Selling Your Own Business.” “The older people better pay attention to these young people and find a mentor so they can teach
them about technology,” Robertson said. “Recent studies have shown that the COVID-19 pandemic has greatly accelerated the shift to e-commerce and e-learning. “The people who don’t climb aboard the tech train will be left behind in the post-pandemic shakeout. A lack of tech knowledge is an excuse for organizations to cut the more expensive, older people and bring in the younger talent. These young tech execs should latch onto a floundering management exec and lead them to the new world order before they become obsolete. In return, the young people get access to years of wisdom, and companies can become more cohesive and efficient in the whole reverse mentorship process.”

listening ear for an HVAC pro during a family crisis leads to a friendship; a handshake and family conversation leads to above-andbeyond construction debris removal; and two pizzas and Gatorade on a hot day leads to digging a trench for my mom. Brent, Eduardo, Tommy, Jason, Rick . . . to name a few. Men who go above-andbeyond. Heroes, in my mind. No, not front-line health care workers, but men who get up at the break of dawn and labor through the day to ensure we have heat, our trash is taken, our water is hot, or make our homes a little nicer. Crawling through attics on 90-degree days or laying pavers for a new patio in the hot sun, they work hard to provide for their families while making our lives better. These men have taught me the value of a kind word, a listening ear and respect – values I was raised on. These men remind me of the importance of pride, kindness, integrity and friendship. As there are no shortcuts in quality construction, there should be no shortcuts in being kind in everyday interaction. Whether it is the trashman, the plumber, the HVAC repairman or the yard laborer, they are sensitive, take pride in their work, they cry, they struggle with life, their career, their kids and paying the bills. My connection with these men year after year is priceless. As we move into 2021, pause for a moment and see who makes your life better. Perhaps you left a gift for the mail carrier – think about doing the same for your trashman. Perhaps it is an especially cold day and your home is being serviced — a cup of coffee would be a nice treat for the workers. PYour kindness might just lead to a lifelong friend. So, here’s to my heroes keeping the heat on, the water running and houses looking good. I am proud of you and glad you are my friends. Brent, Eduardo, Tommy, Jason, Rick, thank you for your service!

May’s World War II knowledge grows with master’s degree By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
R
on May already had a rich knowledge of World War II history. The Carmel resident took another step with an academic pursuit. May, who has served as chaplain at Hoosier Village in Zionsville since 2015, earned his master’s degree in World War II Studies Program Dec. 14, 2020 at Arizona State University. The program exclusively focused on World War II is the first of its kind in the world. “The thing it did most for me was increase my understanding of the global aspect of the World War II and implications,” he said. “It was very intentional to build a global look at World War II instead of just the traditional view from the Western or American viewpoint of the war.” The online program began in January of 2019 and came into existence through a collaborative partnership between Arizona State University and the National World War II Museum in New Orleans. May, 57, was one of 42 students in the first cohort to graduate from the program. The two-year degree consisted of 10 courses (30 credit hours) that reviewed the global impact of World War II and taught students the skill of critical analysis in researching and writing about the war. May said he had to thank BHI Senior Living’s BHI Foundation assisted him with a scholarship for master’s program. BHI operates Hoosier Village. May’s Capstone Project digital portfolio features some of his academic submissions and personal reflections on his work as a graduate historian “They take four of your papers from four classes and you rework, refine and elaborate further,” May said. “There was one paper, one audio podcast and one video lecture and one museum exhibit.” May said there was a course called “World War II Today,” which examined outcomes and implications from World War II to the current times. “A little bit was how things set up for the Korean War and Vietnam War and the Cold War,” May said. “The courses were all quite good but the one I enjoyed the most was the class focusing on oral history interviews and aspects of memories.” He is also the author of two books on World War II veteran stories “Our Service Our Stories” volumes 1 & 2. May, who uses his full name of Ronald P. May as author, is working on the third book, which he expects will be released in late

spring. “That kind of got delayed when I started working on the master’s program because of time,” he said. “I’m 65 percent done with my third book and have really already started a fourth book with interviews and materials gatherings. It’s going to be about those who worked in the medical field.” May said he has a couple new residents of Hoosier Village that are World War II veterans. May understand the number of living World War II veterans are dwindling. “So, I have some new material there but what I’ve been doing looking ahead to the future is trying to collect memoirs or oral interviews from those that have passed away,” May said. “Actually, two residents have supplied with their father’s memoirs and another all of the letters that were shared during the three years he was in the war. I’m building the stories from of their memoirs and the letters.” May, a chaplain in the Naval Reserves for 22 years, also has acted in recent years, putting on a one-man show as war correspondent Ernie Pyle. He also acted in Carmel Community Players’ “Failure to Zig Zag” about the trial after the sinking of the USS Indianapolis.

f you have been suffering from chronic or acute foot or ankle pain for a while and have not had success with cortisone injections or other conservative treatments, MLS Laser Therapy, or Multiwaved Locked System, may be for you. MLS Laser Therapy may also be an option for those who have been told that surgery is their only alternative for foot and ankle pain. At Westfield Foot and Ankle, we are committed to providing the latest medical developments and technological advances in medicine to give our patients the best care. One of the many ways we provide this quality care is by being the only podiatry practice in Hamilton County to offer FDAcleared MLS Laser Therapy to our patients. Laser therapy has been used effectively for many years but advances in technology have produced “the next generation of laser therapy” with the new MLS Therapy Laser. The advanced laser technology works to eliminate pain and reduce inflammation in the body in a safe, painless and noninvasive way. There are no known side effects, and it is quick and convenient. The MLS Laser uses specific wavelengths of light to treat painful and debilitating conditions. It treats the conditions by penetrating deep into the tissue to stimulate regeneration at the cellular level without the potential for thermal injuries that other lasers can inflict. Treatment is usually administered 10 to 15 minutes. The typical course of treatment is six to 12 sessions, depending on the nature of the condition being treated. With MLS Laser Therapy, we can offer relief without the use of painful injections, potentially habit-forming drugs or surgery to those suffering with both chronic and acute ailments such as: • Plantar fasciitis • Achilles injuries • Arthritis and bursitis • Tendonitis • Neuromas • Peripheral neuropathy • Post-surgical sites • Fractures • Occupational and sports injuries • Hematomas and gout MLS Laser Therapy also can aid in the quick recovery of sprains and strains as well as the structure and function of an injured region. To learn more about MLS Laser Therapy and how it may be able to help you, visit our website at westfieldfoot.com or call our office.

The Costs of Care as You Age Commentary by Lisa Dillman
I
can’t tell you how often I have clients come in who have scrimped and saved for retirement, only to realize they are burning through their nest eggs at an alarming rate as they age. It’s not cheap to grow old gracefully in the U.S. That’s why it’s important to seek good advice before a health crisis hits and all your money is gone. The mental and financial costs of caring for senior citizens are enormous, but they can be mitigated through careful planning with an elder law attorney. The costs The average daily rate for nursing home care in Indiana is $217 a day, or roughly $6,510 a month for a private room. Assisted Living in Indiana also is pricey, with the average cost being about $4,100 a month for basic care such as medication and meal reminders. Costs rise quickly if you add in help with eating, bathing or medication administration. Most of my clients, and the majority of Americans, want to stay in their homes as they age. In-home care costs an average of more than $22 per hour, with most agencies requiring a three-hour minimum per visit. If an individual needed around the clock care in their home, their average
monthly costs would be $15,840. It’s not just the actual care costs that impact seniors and their families. The average caregiver spends 13 hours a month researching resources for their loved one. Many caregivers also take time off work to care for their loved ones, which means they sacrifice income or have to take valuable vacation time. Planning for aging A long-term care plan provides asset protection solutions so that individuals’ hard-earned savings are not depleted, and clients can receive the care they need. Planning also takes the burden off loved ones. It may take a small amount of effort up front, but planning will help you avoid the hours of scrambling to find care as your needs change and the spending of unnecessary money. I tell my clients they are never too young to seek out a qualified professional to help ensure their golden years aren’t tarnished.

Heartland Hospice reaches Level Four status — Indianapolis-based Heartland Hospice serving central Indiana, a division of ProMedica, has been promoted to a Level Four status within the We Honor Veterans Program for its continued care and support of the Veteran population. All wars are different and provide unique experiences and often difficulties for the veterans who served in them. We Honor Veterans was launched by the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization, in collaboration with the Dept. of Veterans Affairs, to help improve the care veterans receive from hospice and palliative care providers. “Mike Judge is a retired United States Marine Corps Master Sergeant. He is also a Heartland Hospice veteran volunteer and our volunteer who helped make our Level Four achievement possible,” said Dana Criss, volunteer coordinator. “The We Honor Veterans mission is very dear to me,” Judge said. “Those men and women who stood in the gap for this nation, whether drafted or volunteered, made themselves available for whatever this country needed, even if that included their own lives. Our veterans are deserving of my undying support and gratitude.” The We Honor Veterans program provides four levels of recognition to organizations that demonstrate a commitment to improving care for veterans. In order to reach Level Four, Heartland was tasked with learning more about caring for veterans, declaring a commitment to honoring veterans at the end of life, providing education for hospice staff and volunteers on caring for veterans and partnering with the VA at the local, regional and national levels to ensure the unique needs of veterans are met.

ESSAY
LETTER
Favorite things
Emerging from the COVID cocoon
Commentary by Terry Anker On the long-running and iconic sitcom “Seinfeld,” quirky central character Cosmos Kramer — known for his off-thewall thinking — conceived, published and marketed “The Coffee Table Book of Coffee Tables.” In a bizarre twist of life imitating art, imitating life, the fictional book by the fictional character on the “show about nothing” is rated 4.76 stars out of 5 on GoodReads.com. It is depressing to see the many classic works that are esteemed by the internet lower. Still, the plucky Kramer encouraged the then-growing trend of self-publishing. Today, the overwhelming number of tomes are delivered directly to the public. While there may be much to discuss on the value of the vetting process of a literary agent and established publishing house, assuredly it would not have allowed for the countless dark-horse books that have found their way into our homes and onto library shelves. For many, the late-, mid-life autobiography has become a substitute for the sportscar in declaring “I was here and matter” to the world. For others, it has become a way to share a passion for photography, or horseshoes, or medieval bridge construction, with the handful of others on the planet who share the proclivity. Among the many random gems darting through your trusty columnist’s fecund mind would be a book version of the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein song, “My Favorite Things.” What are those things that bring great peace, even joy, only at seeing them? What are those things, the simple pleasures, that can take us away from strife and concern, even with a concentrated thought of them? Pages might be filled with a sleeping baby, early sunrise, steaming coffee, smiling child, fuel gauge on full, graduation cap, wedding ring, puppies playing, bat connecting with the ball, or calendar crossed off for vacation. What are yours?

Really need to sleep on it Commentary by Danielle Wilson Maybe it’s hormones, maybe it’s stress, and maybe it’s my binge watching of violent young adult dystopian dramas HUMOR (see last week’s column) before bed, but for the life of me, I cannot sleep straight through the night anymore. And I’m not talking about getting up to use the bathroom — I’ve accepted this annoyance as a fact of aging and three pregnancies. No, I’m speaking of hours of lying awake, tossing and turning, trying desperately to reign in my thoughts. Last night, for example, I spent a solid 40 minutes contemplating running for political office. Which office? Could I keep teaching? What if I won? Debates are scary. How much do those gigs pay? Maybe I should go to law school first. Then, I segued into probably another 30 minutes on a potential spring break vacay. Where could we drive for warm weather and ocean views? How much could we spend? How does a pandemic factor into this sunny scenario? Is a spray tan necessitated?
At some point, stream-of-consciousness thinking takes over. I hope we win Mega Millions. I can’t forget to take my gym bag tomorrow. Did I ever return my mother-inlaw’s call? In the event of a zombie apocalypse, I’m definitely heading to Rockville. Could I pull off being blonde? Bangs? Abraham Lincoln was a complicated fella. Who invented pizza? And so on. It’s exhausting, and not in any way that allows me to fall back asleep. I try meditation, deep breathing, and occasionally, yes, even counting sheep. But usually to no avail. Stupid hormones and stress! And maybe “The 100,” though that beautiful show is worth it. Peace out.

Editor, We’re in this together — the COVID cocoon. Wrapped inside of this metaphorical cocoon we struggle in our respective tight spaces hoping to emerge soon. But with the passage of time, it seems that our cocoon has gotten tighter, more restrictive. When will we break free? When will this pandemic really be over? The optimist says “soon” since the vaccine should give us herd immunity. The pessimist says “it’s here to stay,” forever confining us to life in a cocoon where hand sanitizers, masks and isolation reign supreme. Then there are others who refuse to be inside a cocoon, thus spreading not free will but the dreaded COVID-19. As a realist, I believe there are truths hidden in all points of view. We must take a proactive role in our own personal health; we must not succumb to fear; and we must continue to be educated on what this pandemic is and what it is not. Eleven months into this deadly virus, there are still too many mixed messages bombarding us. So as the world struggles with the best way to corral COVID-19, we have a choice as to what we do inside our own cocoon. Positive transformation, even now, is possible. We’re in this together. Susanne McAlister Spitzberg, Carmel

The Apple of my watch’s eye Commentary by Dick Wolfsie
OUR PROMISE
LIC# CO51300008
A smile and quality, honest work. We will continue to wear PPE when we service a customer’s home for as long as it takes.

My brother-in-law, Tom, gave me an Apple Watch Series 5. Tom is a techie kind of guy. He once worked at an Apple HUMOR Genius Bar and got a promotion for thinking on the job. I once worked at a bar and was fired for drinking on the job. When Tom bought the Series 6 Apple Watch, he graciously gave me his Series 5. He has done this for me before with other gadgets, which is why I have eight different iPhones in my desk drawer. I called Tom and admitted that his gift was just too overwhelming for me. “Come on, Dick. You just think you are out of your league. Relax,” he said. “The key is not to be intimidated. That’s the problem others have had.” “Tom, that is exactly the same advice you gave me when I married your sister.” He told me he would walk me through whatever issue I was having. The watch performs thousands of functions, but one of the first things you have to do is pick a face for it. There are dozens of different options to choose from. For example, there

is one face that encourages you to breathe mindfully, and another called Solar, which displays the sun’s position in the sky like a sun dial that indicates the time. That is great for people who don’t have a watch … which you obviously do.
The watch performs thousands of functions, but one of the first things you have to do is pick a face for it. There are dozens of different options to choose from. I chose a face called AG Digital, which looks like the dashboard on a 747. It’s hard to tell the time, but it does alert me if I’m experiencing headwinds. I was happy with my choice. I went to bed and awoke the next morning with a Mickey Mouse face (scared the heck out of Mary Ellen). I must have touched something on the settings in my sleep because there’s Mickey pointing to the time. It was hard to read, because I
wasn’t totally sure if it was his feet or his hands I was supposed to look at. I didn’t know if it was 8:20 or 2:40. Of course, if I just looked at his ears, it was five minutes before 1 a.m. I tried to call Tom but couldn’t reach him. That was odd, considering he has three cellphones, two iPads and a couple of Apple Watches. He called me back later that morning. “Tom, I need to get Mickey off my watch face.” “What have you tried?” “I’ve tried everything. I even called Disney World.” Tom helped me expunge the rat from my view, and now I toggle between the Artist watch face and the Astronomy watch face. As I said, there are lots more choices, but I’m most comfortable being two-faced.

state-sponsored sites in other counties during the same week. “It gives us a week or two to get prepared,” said Tom Santelli. president of the Board of Boone County Commissioners. More vaccination sites will be needed as the state opens enrollment to more age groups and professions, according to health officials. As a result, county commissioners said it’s wise to continue searching for potential sites for additional clinics while they await word from state officials. Currently, Hoosiers 70 and older, first responders, long-term care residents and health care workers are eligible to receive COVID-19 vaccinations, and state health officials have signaled Hoosiers 65 to 69 will be the next eligible group. Witham Health Services, in addition to the BCHD clinic at the county fairgrounds, is also administering COVID-19 vaccinations.

Plasma demand surges in Indiana hospitals — Hospital demand for convalescent plasma throughout Indiana is now far exceeding donations coming in. Convalescent plasma is used by hospitals across Indiana to help treat a surging number of patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Versiti Blood Center of Indiana is appealing to Hoosiers who have recovered from coronavirus to donate their antibody-rich plasma immediately at any one of its donor centers throughout Indiana, in Indianapolis, Fishers, Carmel, Greenwood, Lafayette and Terre Haute. Versiti collects then supplies convalescent plasma, blood and blood products to more than 80 hospitals throughout the state. Music and menu choices — It’s no secret that restaurants use colors, lighting and music to influence diner’s food choices. Now a study suggests that theory may be fact. The study analyzed customers’ food choices during periods of loud, upbeat music and during periods of quiet music. When the music was quiet, customers made healthier menu choices than when the music was loud. The takeaway is that you
should focus on the healthy choices regardless of the noise level. Source: Journal of the Academy of Marketing Sciences Curb nighttime snacking — Late-night munchies can sabotage your efforts to lose weight, or even to remain healthy. To help prevent the evening snack urges, try eating a high-protein dinner. Avoid high-carb foods like pasta and potatoes late in the day. They stimulate insulin production and can make you feel hungry two hours later.

The traditional method is to boil fresh leaves and water until the water reduces to half. Then you can either drink the resulting tea or eat the crushed herb when it cools. Source: Bottom Line Inc.

Coats of many colors and one-of-a-kind designs By Rick Morwick rick@youarecurrent.com Within the fashion industry, few people have a more discerning eye for “wearable art” than Joan “Lilly” CarFASHION ney, a Carmel resident who has traveled extensively in search of the world’s top art-as-clothing artisans. Her latest discovery, a Florida-based felt and silk artisan from Kyrgyzstan, happens to be one she is especially excited about. “I have connected with what I think is the No. 1 felting artist in the world,” said Carney, who operates her own art-asclothing boutique from her Carmel home. “(Felting) is a really hard process. I’ve never seen anything as beautiful as what this (artist) has.” The artist is Galina Kostanda-Lambert. Her creations are handmade women’s clothing and accessories made of felt or silk. Her most recent pieces are a line of one-of-a-kind felt coats that can be worn four different ways. Carney is selling the coats from her Carmel store, Lilly’s Wearable Art Studio, in a trunk show for Kostanda-Lambert, whose line also contains vests. Carney conducts similar events for other clothing artisans who can’t sell at shows because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Carney agreed to conduct the trunk show for Kostanda-Lambert after traveling to Florida and watching her create a vest, a delicate, meticulous process that took about a week. Coats take considerably longer. There are 40 in the trunk show collection, and no two are alike. “It’s incredible the amount of work that goes into one coat,” Carney said. “She now has given me those pieces to sell, the fourway coats, which means every coat is a work of art on both sides, so it’s totally different. It’s all felt, and it’s all done with fibers of wool. All kinds of work goes into it. “It’s unbelievable work.” Kostanda-Lambert draws inspiration from the natural world. “Mother Nature inspires me to generate such exquisite, colorful and original

pieces,” Kostanda-Lambert said. “I use a hand-friction technique, a process that includes only superb quality fibers and natural material adhered together with
soap and water. I envision my clientele adorned in my soft and luxurious creations that accentuate their uniqueness, no matter their age, size, shape, or skin tone.” Carney, who operated Lilly’s Boutique Gallery in Zionsville from 1992 until opening her new store last year in her home, sees customers by appointment only. She follows social distancing and face-covering guidelines when showing collections in her studio. Pricing is discussed during appointments. So far, demand for Kostanda-Lambert’s coats has been high. “They’re all different. They’re all oneof-a-kind,” said Carney, who has traveled the world in search of the most skilled artisans. “People come back, and they buy them again.” Besides the Kostanda-Lambert coat collection, Carney sells other wearable art in her home studio, such as sweaters, scarves, vests, jackets, leggings and coats made by other artisans. She plans to present a wearable art fashion show at noon Feb. 27 at the Columbia Club in downtown Indianapolis. “My passion is to help artisans,” Carney said. “Every lady that buys something here wears something unique.” To schedule an appointment or make a reservation for the fashion show, call 317733-9061 or email imlillygirl@aol.com.

(Photo by Anna Skinner) Carmel What to get: Challah French toast comes with a choice of bacon or sausage. I Price: $10.50 also tried the build-your-own three-egg omAnna’s take: I hadn’t heard of Rad’s beelet ($12.50) and the avocado toast ($11.50), fore visiting, and so hopefully this review which was loaded with avocado, chorizo, will get the word out. And it is, in fact, rad. an egg and pico de gallo. Rad’s opened A cute, cozy coffee, breakfast and lunch three years ago, shortly after the O’Malia’s spot near 126th Street and Gray Road, Rad’s grocery closed.

Album artist’s work on display By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Hugh Syme has a wide range of talents as a painter, illustrator, graphic artist, podcast host and musician. The New Castle resident is EXHIBIT best known for his album covers, including 46 years as art director for the rock band Rush. Syme, an inductee in the Album Cover Hall of Fame, created Rush’s iconic Starman logo, although he Syme said he never imagined the band would adopt it as their key brand for decades to come or that it would become so internationally recognizable. In 2015, he published his 276-page signed and numbered book, “Art Of Rush/Serving A Life Sentence,” dedicated to his three daughters (“my three suns,” as he calls them), and celebrating then-40 years as art director for Rush. Fishers Arts Council is presenting three exhibits by Syme at The Art Gallery at City Hall in Fishers. The January exhibit, “The World at Large,” will feature 13 prints while the February exhibit, “Music and Cover Art,” will feature another 13 prints. In March, the exhibit will conclude with “Music Art of RUSH” with 25 prints exhibited. If COVID-19 protocols allow, a live reception will be held with Syme from 6 to 8 p.m. March 19. The prints are for sale. Galleries in London, Los Angeles and Austin, Texas are plan-

ning exhibits for Syme. “The music business is not what it was,” he said. In the age of iTunes, album and CD art is not the same. “Many of us are feeding off the carcass (of an older era),” he said. Syme, who was born in Canada, has a studio in New Castle. He moved another studio from Los Angeles to Toronto several years ago because of earthquakes. “I moved a studio to Toronto because Rush, my oldest and dearest client, was there,” Syme said. “They kept me so busy I was almost commuting between Toronto and Indiana. I love Toronto but I missed my daughters and being close by my daughters, so I decided to build a home here in rural Indiana for the price of a driveway in Toronto. Syme does a music podcast with John Mellencamp band drummer Dane Clark and live entertainment executive Andy Wilson. For more, visit, MusicBuzzzPodcast.com.
‘Imagination Station’ set for free livestream editorial@youarecurrent.com A free presentation of Faegre Drinker Peanut Butter & Jam’s “Imagination Station” will be livestreamed at 10:30 a.m. DANCE Jan. 30 from the Center on the Performing Arts’ Facebook and YouTube platforms. The show is being livestreamed because of safety protocols amid the COVID-19 pandemic. “Imagination Station” is an interactive presentation ideal for introducing the art of dance to children, their parents and grandparents. Viewers can join the Phoenix Rising Dance Company dancers on a trip to a “magical” world created by dancing children.
Unfortunately, all the children have grown up and forgotten how to dance. Since the magical world needs dancing to remain magical, children can use their imaginations to create the sun, wind, rain, flowers, trees and animals. The performance was created and choreographed by Phoenix Rising Dance Company’s Artistic Director Justin David Sears-Watson. For more, visit phoenixdanceindy.com. Designed for children ages 1-7, the Peanut Butter & Jam sessions encourage young children to become engaged in the arts. The sessions are set for 10:30 to 11:15 a.m. on Saturdays.

Blueprint for Improvement: Lake Clearwater living room Commentary by Larry Greene
THE SOLUTION
After
Before
• The carpet was replaced with oak hardwood flooring. • Recessed lighting and all new white electrical plates brighten the space. • A custom-built entertainment center serves as the focal point for the room and the couple’s art collection. • The fireplace was updated with a quartz surround and walnut mantel.

Places in the heart Commentary by Cathy Patrick In 2008, the Pew Research Center surveyed more than 2,000 American adults who were asked INTERIOR DESIGN to identify “a place in your heart you consider to be home.” Only 29 percent said their current residence felt like home. Earlier last year, we considered our homes in a new light as we braced ourselves for the reality of the pandemic. I remember a day in April when a client called me in a state of panic. Her family was adjusting to distance learning, virtual meetings and constant meal planning. These sudden changes caused her to feel a heightened sensitivity to her surroundings. The weary mother was relieved to know she could create a sense of calmness and organization in spite of the inevitable chaos. Nonetheless, she worried about her teenagers who experienced behavioral changes and mood swings. Realizing how quickly the environment affected family dynamics, it made sense to reimagine the functionality of their main floor. Existing furniture could
be rearranged to make quarantine life more palatable. As we developed a plan, I recalled my own childhood. How would I have responded to these circumstances? Whenever I drew a picture of my family, my house was prominently placed in the middle. This was not unique. Children and teenagers around the world have invariably placed the home in the center of their world. As you reflect upon the places where you’ve lived, identify those that sparked joy. Take time to describe them in writing and include as many details as possible. How do you feel about your current residence? As you consider the question, you may reach a deeper understanding of yourself and how your needs have changed this year. If you find room for improvement, be sure to read our next article.

Inside the Madrassa of Sultan Hasan in Cairo. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Cairo’s mosque/madrassa of Sultan Hasan
Commentary by Don Knebel The Mosque-Madrassa of Sultan Hasan is one of the most popular buildings in Cairo. It is named for a ruler who may TRAVEL have given his life for it. In A.D. 640., Muslim forces overwhelmed Christians holding out in the Babylon Fortress, built by the Romans along the Nile River in about 30 B.C. The conquerors established their capital near the fortress. In 969, the Fatimids conquered Egypt and built a new city north of the fortress, now known as Cairo, to be their capital. When the Mamluks took control of Egypt in 1250, they maintained Cairo as their capital. By 1340, Cairo, with a population estimated at 500,000, was the center of Islamic learning and trade and the world’s largest city outside of China. In 1347, 12-year-old Al-Nasir Hasan, a Mamluk, became sultan of Egypt. He was deposed in a coup in 1351 and held under house arrest, providing him an opportunity to study Islamic theology. When Hasan regained the throne in 1355, he demolished two palaces built by his father near the Cai-
ro Citadel and began building a monumental mosque and madrassa, or Islamic school, on the 2-acre site. Daily construction costs were reportedly 20,000 silver dirhams, equal to about $50,000 today. Much of the money came from wealthy Egyptians, who had died without heirs during the Black Death plague ravishing Egypt at the time. Because of his perceived prolificacy, Al-Nasir Hasan was assassinated by confidants in 1361 and the project was carried on by his aides. When completed in 1363, the mosque/ madrassa was more than 1,600 feet long, with an entry portal almost 125 feet high. Contemporary reports labeled it one of the world’s most impressive buildings, even rivaling the pyramids of Giza. The madrassa, which is open to the public, is one of the most colorful examples of Islamic architecture anywhere.
