To our readers: We hope you, your family, friends and colleagues are well and will be well as we all navigate the COVID-19 pandemic. The financial fallout from the proliferation of the virus hasn’t spared a single business we know of, and that includes Current Publishing. In an effort to keep the news flowing, as we like to say and practice, and to keep our workers gainfully employed (not one employee has been “let go”), we have made the decision to publish our April 21 editions virtually. Each community will find its paper in its entirety at youarecurrent.com/ read-online. From there, you may select the community in which you live, open the paper and turn the pages on your computer, tablet or phone. News and information will continue to be posted with rapidity on our website and on our Twitter and Facebook feeds. While you’re reading our virtual edition, you will view advertisements as you do when perusing our print editions, and it is our hope you will support the businesses, some of which have placed hyperlinks in their ads. Simply click links, which will take you directly to their virtual storefronts. Patronize them, please, if you are able. No amount is too small. They and Current are in this battle together, and we want to help them in any way we can.

Retail businesses also must adjust hours to accommodate vulnerable populations, such as elderly individuals, and limit hours to restock, clean and comply with all state-mitigation measures. According to the new executive order, all retail deemed nonessential will now operate the way bars and restaurants have in recent weeks: They must operate solely by carryout, delivery and online sales – what the order calls “minimum basic operations.” Holcomb’s order also closed all campgrounds. “We had those open with good intentions in mind,” Holcomb said. “It was meant for exercising. We can’t have parking lots full of hundreds of folks taking in our beautiful state parks, so they are now closed.” To help slow the spread of the virus, the state recommends all residents postpone all in-person purchases unless necessary and to use call-in or online deliveries as much as possible.

Before founding Aria Diagnostics, Khan began operating surgery centers, including Capitol Street Surgery Center in Indianapolis. He partnered with Vipin Adhlakha, a molecular biologist who had been one of his best friends at Carmel High School, to launch Aria Diagnostics at the request of physicians wanting, in part, to ensure patients were taking potentially addictive drugs as prescribed. But now, with labwork slowed because many doctors aren’t seeing patients in offices, Aria has the ability to transform its short-term mission to testing for COVID-19. Aria purchased machinery and software to make it happen. The idea sparked three months ago when reports of the new coronavirus, which causes the COVID-19 disease, first came out of China. “Vipin said, ‘We’d better look at COVID-19, because if we can test for it I think there will be value in the U.S. market, clinically,’” Khan said. “So I said, ‘OK, let’s look at doing it.’” Learn more at ariadxs.com.

A lab near Zionsville has quickly transformed its mission from toxicology screening to testing for COVID-19. PANDEMIC Aria Diagnostics, at 5365 W. 96th St. in Indianapolis, typically checks for narcotics and opioids, but in recent weeks it has shifted its focus to not only offering COVID-19 tests but assembling them as well. Founder Zak Khan, a Carmel resident and 1994 Carmel High School graduate, said only testing people showing symptoms of the disease – the policy in much of Indiana and elseKhan where — doesn’t do enough to stop its spread. He said everyone who isn’t staying at home — from road workers to grocery store employees — should be tested. And he’s not going to let a lack of testing kits stop that from happening. “If you create a strategy saying, ‘There’s a lack of kits; we only want to test those who are symptomatic,’ that goes in the face of the evidence that says people are going to be asymptomatic (but contagious),” Khan said. “The way the disease works is once somebody gets it, they may be symptomatic, they may not.” Khan said he became frustrated hearing about testing kit shortages, especially in areas hardest hit by COVID-19, so his team found the raw materials needed to make them and began assembling them this week at Pure Pharmacy at Old Meridian Street and W. Carmel Drive in Carmel. In the first week, Khan expected to assemble 50,000 kits, with 100,000 assembled per week thereafter. Many of the kits will be used locally, with others destined for clients in North Carolina, Ohio, Kentucky and Maryland. Khan and his partners formed Apex Medical to manage the assembly and are donating 50,000 of the kits to New York, one of the hardest-hit areas. “Nobody that I’m aware of in this country is manufacturing kits,” Khan said. “They aren’t hard to assemble.” Ramping up As of April 6, Khan said Aria was testing more than 200 people for COVID-19 each day, with results ready within 48 hours. But
Khan said Aria has the capacity to conduct 10,000 tests per day. Many of those tested are first responders from central Indiana, including Carmel, Noblesville, Whitestown, Fishers, Zionsville, Westfield, Avon, Pike Township and the Indiana State Police. But the business also is expanding its reach, offering testing for several facilities in Texas. Each test costs $175. Carmel plans to test its first responders weekly and other employees at least once, aiming to identify not only those with COVID-19 but also those who may have unknowingly had it and recovered. The city expects to pay $600,000 for the tests, which city leaders expect to be reimbursed through the federal government. “The testing can prevent even more costly hospitalizations and additional medical treatment among our insured,” Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said. “Each hospitalization we avoid will save the city health insurance fund tens of thousands of dollars.” Khan said testing first responders saves taxpayer dollars by identifying firefighters and police officers who can go to work so cities don’t pay overtime to cover shifts for those unnecessarily quarantined.

ZCC, SECOND NATURE LANDSCAPES CREATE SYMBOL DURING PANDEMIC The Zionsville Chamber of Commerce and Second Nature Landscapes, Inc., have created a Rainbows of Hope tree in Zionsville to help foodinsecure people during the COVID-19 pandemic. The tree rainbows theme started in Italy, symbolizing that a rainbow always follows a storm. “They reached out to us and wanted to do something to brighten the community, so they are decorating the tree in rainbow-colored lights,” Zionsville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Allyson Gutwein said. The tree, across from Fivethirty Home on Main Street, initially had ornaments in different colors, with each color representing a different charity. Ornaments listed needs of each charity and the address where items could be dropped off. But due to public health concerns and to slow the spread of the new coronavirus, the ornaments were removed. Donations have shifted to an online-only format. For full tree charity lists, visit zionsvillechamber.org. (Submitted photo)

Boone County reports first COVID-19 deaths By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com The Boone County Health Dept., in consultation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the InPANDEMIC diana State Dept. of Health, confirmed the county’s second COVID-19 death on April 8. On April 7, the county reported its first COVID-19 death. Both people were at least 60 years old, but health officials said they couldn’t report any other details. The deaths come after an increase in testing and reported cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus, across the state. As of press time, Boone County has reported 90 cases of COVID-19, with 428 tests having been administered. Witham Hospital Services CEO Ray Ingham said one of the first two Boone County COVID-19 deaths was at Witham, and one was at another facility. To date, Witham has designated 26 ICU beds to treat COVID-19 patients, alhough the hospital has more beds if needed. Six were being used as of press time. But Ingham said Witham, the primary hospital in the county, has treated at least 40 patients with the disease so far. Ingham said it would have to be a “pretty significant surge” for the hospital to need additional help battling the virus now that the Boone County 4-H Fairgrounds has been equipped to take more patients if hospital beds fill up. Boone County Public Health Educator Claire Haughton said the county expected to receive news of a death related to the disease at some point during the pandemic. “People who are in that 60-plus age group and also those with preexisting conditions
— we already knew they were going to be hit particularly hard by COVID-19,” Haughton said. “We knew it was going to happen. We’ve known for awhile that there was going to be an uptick in cases because testing is becoming more available.” State officials, through the ISDH and independent labs, have increased the maximum number of tests it can perform to nearly 3,700 a day. They want to increase that number soon, but tests are still administered predominantly to symptomatic medical professionals and first responders and people with severe symptoms. Haughton said there still aren’t enough tests for everyone. Epidemiological models have predicted a surge of COVID-19 cases and deaths in the coming weeks, Haughton said, adding that it is still important for residents to stay at home as directed by Gov. Eric Holcomb. If residents must go outside for essential business, Haughton said the BCHD recommends they cover their face with a mask, a precaution first recommended by the CDC last week. But the BCHD still encourages residents to donate any surgical masks to local hospitals and health care workers. Instead of surgical masks, Haughton said residents can use masks made from 100 percent cotton. But if a person doesn’t have access to the materials, she said any facial covering is better than nothing. “We really, really want people to stay home, even if they’re feeling healthy,” Haughton said. “We don’t want them to come into contact with something and get sick, or maybe if they’re asymptomatic, we worry about them possibly spreading it to someone else.”

Zionsville Wastewater Dept. — The ZWD has a message for residents: please stop flushing wipes down the toilet. With an increase in use of disinfectant wipes, the Zionsville Wastewater Department is more concerned about backups and overflows. Even if the container says the wipes are flushable, they are not. Items that are not flushable include cleaning wipes of any kind, baby wipes, paper towels, facial tissue, and medical waste including needles, colostomy bags and catheters. Flushing these items could cause damage the sewer system.

The Zionsville Chamber of Commerce has started an electronic gift card program to support Zionsville busiPANDEMIC nesses during the COVID-19 pandemic. The gift cards can be used at local businesses and restaurants during the pandemic — when businesses are limited to carryout, delivery and online orders per Gov. Eric Gutwein Holcomb’s stay-at-home executive order — or in the future, after businesses are allowed to resume normal operations. If a resident buys an electronic gift card of $30 or more from a local business, an additional $10 card will be added. The additional $10 cards are donations from Harris FLP, Price Baker Enterprises, LLC, and CK Price Properties, LLC. The chamber’s goal is to sell 1,000 gift cards, totaling $40,000 that would be injected into the local economy during a time when businesses have seen a drastic reduction in sales. Previously, the chamber offered paper gift cards, but when Holcomb mandated the stay-at-home order, chamber officials transitioned to electronic gift cards, reducing the number of people purchasing in person. But Zionsville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Allyson Gutwein said the chamber will still honor the paper gift cards. “What we are trying to do right now is act as a buoy, make sure that people are as above water as they can be until their doors open back up or open back up in the same capacity as they were in the middle of March,” Gutwein said. The chamber accepts cash or checks and can accept credit cards for an added 2.6 percent fee for gift card purchases. Residents can preorder cards by calling the chamber at 317-873-3836 or emailing info@ zionsvillechamber.org. In addition, the chamber offers a chat blog on its website that can direct businesses to resources and advice. It also has waived membership fees for new businesses for the next six months to give them access to the chamber’s resources during the pandemic.

Siblings photograph quarantined families
Gleaners will have purchased $3.2 million in additional food in a period of 10 weeks, representing a roughly six-week supply for COVID-19-driven needs. “From a mental health perspective, this has been great for me, too,” Stoner said. “This has been really so positive that I probably have a better euphoric feeling about things right now because I’ve seen so many smiles and so many families hugging each other.” Stoner is optimistic that the pandemic, despite its painful stories and challenges, will lead to positive change in the aftermath. “I hope we all maybe lead simpler lives,” Stoner said. “I hope we’re all more kind and grateful. There will be good things that come from this tragedy.” To view Edmunds’ and Stoners’ family pictures, visit their Instagram account, @atourdoorstep.
By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com A few weeks ago, Tiffany Stoner, 48, watched the news while the COVID-19 pandemic shuttered naCOVER STORY tions around the world. “I was watching all the people in Spain and Italy hanging from their balconies, really demonstrating their country pride and their ability to find something good in something so tragic,” she said. “And it just got me thinking, especially where we live – you know, we don’t have balconies to hang from and sing and show our talents, but there’s certainly a piece of Americana that I wanted to show.” Stoner, along with her brother, Nate Edmunds, 45, resolved to capture that piece of Americana through a camera lens. Since the start of the statewide stayat-home order, the siblings, who co-own Nathaniel Edmunds Photography, have driven through Zionsville’s suburbs, capturing images of families on their doorsteps. “Originally, it was driven by just friends, then friends of friends, and then with the social media side of it, from Facebook to Instagram,” Edmunds said. Stoner and Edmunds call their photos #AtOurDoorstep images. So far, they’ve photographed more than 500 families across central Indiana and are getting more requests daily. “I want them (to be photographed) how they would step out of their house,” Stoner said. “I take family portraits all the time with people looking their very best. I wanted people in their jammies, in their slippers, in their robes. I wanted kids wearing rubber boots in scrappy clothes.” Stoner said each generation has lived through significant historical events, such as Pearl Harbor, the JFK assassination and

Sept. 11, 2001. Now, Stoner said the current generation is living through an event that people will remember for the rest of their lives — and it should be documented. Each week, Edmunds and Stoner drive separately down Zionsville roads with a list filled with local family names and phone numbers. They let the families know when they will be driving by a neighborhood, and before they get to a house, they call the family to let them know they will soon arrive. Edmunds and Stoner take all photos from inside their vehicles to maintain social distancing. Although they take the majority of their pictures in Zionsville, Edmunds and Stoner also have photographed families in Greenfield, Noblesville, Fishers and other central Indiana cities. And now other photographers are trying to replicate their efforts by launching similar campaigns to document
their local communities, too. Edmunds’ and Stoner’s pictures are free for digital copies. They take at least three pictures of families and share them with the family so that they can download the images. For some, it is their first family pictures. For others, it’s a timestamp of a difficult passage. In another initiative, the siblings have partnered with Gleaners Food Bank of Indiana to raise funds for its services because the number of families it serves has tripled in the past few weeks. Nathaniel Edmunds Photography donated $250 to launch the campaign. The siblings encourage families they’ve photographed to donate $5 to help support Gleaners. Gleaners is the largest food bank and hunger relief charity in the state, serving one-third of the 1 million food-insecure Hoosiers. With full funding from donations,
Siblings Nate Edmunds and Tiffany Stoner, co-owners of Nathaniel Edmunds Photography, have provided Zionsville businesses with photos to promote their sales during the COVID-19 pandemic. Gov. Eric Holcomb recently ordered all nonessential businesses to only provide carryout, delivery and online orders, a move that has financially burdened business owners as they try to keep their enterprises afloat. Edmunds said he and his sister understand businesses are struggling financially, so they offer their services for free for the opportunity to spread the word about Nathaniel Edmunds Photography, which has been in business for 19 years. They opened the studio in Zionsville after moving from Chicago. “It has an affect where these people are hopefully getting a little more business, which (would be) nice,” Edmunds said.

Good, because this was very much the reasoned intention. As an only child, it was sensible to worry that he’d miss that which only peers can teach. As soon became the ritual, each evening meal demanded some report on the happenings of the day. What was learned? Who told a good joke? How was lunch? As is appropriate with a newly minted 4-year-old, details were sparse, but eventually a story or two could be cajoled through intentional and persistent interrogation. To be sure, one could expect the odd account of the art project or time spent in the gym. But the more interesting news would be in the form of quantifiable learning. New words, math concepts and increasing gradations of color could all be adroitly defined. “Do you know what today is?” Imagining it to be some recently conceived holiday absent from our childhoods decades earlier, the answer was, “No, what is it?” The disgruntled scholar responded incredulously, “Well, it is Wednesday!” Thinking from the previous answer that he’d identified a significant gap in adult learning, he proceeded to inform that each day had its own name – and, to tell them. He’d gone from dependent to independent. He’d gone from pupil to professor. He’d gone from consumer to expert. No longer would the days pass unnoted; they would progress in his order from one to the next. Knowledge is power.

Stop the insanity Commentary by Danielle Wilson Uncle! I’m calling uncle. Enough. I thought I could handle the social distancing, the school closures, the quaranHUMOR tine, but I can’t. My perimenopausal self was not made for this madness. Every day here at chez Wilson is a crapshoot, mostly because I don’t know what kind of garbage I’ll have to deal with nor how well I’ll respond (my emotional fuel tank indicator broke on Day 6). Will my husband, Doo, now working from home, sit too close while eating a chicken taco, driving me mad with his loud chewing? Will my oldest pick a fight with his arch-nemesis, his younger K-poppin’ sister, forcing me to mediate between the inane and the stupid? Will her twin brother suck me into yet another depressing diatribe about how much he hates Indiana and longs to be back in the great state of California? Will my 16-year-old decide to bake brownies at
midnight, awaking me from my restless but all too precious slumber? Will we run out of toilet paper? Will someone start coughing? Will I lose my effing mind? Granted, certain weeks are better than others. Depending on my hormone levels, I can be either Little Orphan Annie (“The sun’ll come out tomorrow, kids! We got this!”), or Sweeney Todd (“I will cut every last one of you!”). When I’m feeling positive, I remember to extend grace and appreciate the important things, like employment and good health. But when the Butcher of Fleet Street emerges, it’s passive-aggressive irritability like you’ve never seen. I’m truly a master. So, I call “uncle!” My family and my sanity cannot take this much longer. Peace out.

Editor, Although I applaud Congress for passing the $2.2 trillion relief package in bipartisan fashion, I am appalled by the president’s reaction to the effect it had on the stock market. We are talking about lives, not the market, which was artificially pumped up by the most irresponsible tax bill passed in history. In what was considered the strongest bull market and economic period in our history, our government has now amassed a debt of $23 trillion, generating a $378 billion a year interest burden. For 2020 alone, we were expected to add $966 billion to the deficit, before the support package. Income and corporate taxes provide only $2.216 trillion of the $4.820 trillion budget. If our economy is so strong, why are we generating huge deficits that are simply not sustainable? Trump’s hotel and casino businesses declared bankruptcy six times between 1991 and 2009. Does he now expect to stiff our mostly foreign creditors as he did banks and investors? And we hear the solution to reduce the deficit may be to attack social programs such as Social Security, Medicare and food assistance programs. William Nicolai, treasurer for Mathew Hook and the Future, Westfield

Benefit from this movement Commentary by Seth Tucker Depending on your level of fitness, you may not be able to perform a standard squat, but you certainly FITNESS stand to benefit from the movement. The seated squat is easier to perform and will improve both strength and mobility. Perform three sets of 10 reps three days a week. Bracing The first step to performing a quality squat is simply taking a breath. The purpose of this breath is to brace the abdomen and support the spine. The breath should expand the stomach. Upon inhalation, “lock in” the breath by squeezing your abdominal muscles, as if you are preparing for a blow to the stomach. This creates pressure in your abdomen that will support your spine through the squat and protect the low back. Before you begin the downward or upward motion of the squat, you should use this bracing technique. When you reach the top or bottom of the squat release the breath hold. Lowering portion Place a low chair or stool 6 to 8 inches behind you, preferably against the wall
to prevent sliding. Maintain a long spine through the whole squat. Imagine a string runs all the way from your low back, up your spine, and through the top of your head. First brace your breath. Now, sit your hips back, as though you are shutting a car door with your backside. This should cause your torso to bend forward at the crease of your hips. Be sure to keep your shoulders back and your chest out. Keep your weight over mid-foot and avoid shifting it to your heels. Slowly lower yourself to the chair behind you until you are seated. Raising portion Simply reverse the process. Brace your breath and then, without using your hands, lean forward with a long spine to shift your weight over mid-foot. Stand up by driving through your feet and squeezing the buttocks. Avoid letting your knees cave in. Stand up completely and repeat the threeset process for the 10 reps.

CHS graduate Urbowski releases first EP
CSO shares love of music on Facebook
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Haley Urbowski’s college experiences expanded her music horizons. The 2016 Carmel High School MUSIC graduate, who records under the name Haley Urbo, recently released her debut EP, “Iridescent,” consisting of five songs. She started it after arriving at the Berklee College of Music in Boston. “I had done music my whole life,” said Urbowski, who will graduate in May. “I had never considered myself a solo artist or songwriter. I had written piano music before but never lyrics.” Urbowski performed in the Accents and the Ambassadors show choirs at CHS. “I was a music girl but had never written before,” she said. “When I got to Berklee, a lot of my peers were doing that stuff. They had figured out who they are as an artist and what their music is like. I wasn’t really at the point in my journey yet.” Thus, Urbowski said it was a good time to attend music school and be exposed to different types of music and people. “I could really start developing my sound, so I started throwing myself into all of it, writing and listening to music I had never been exposed to, recording in the studio,” she said. Urbowski started rehearsing with a live band, which she had never done before. “I hadn’t experienced enough love or heartbreak before I got to Boston and met all the people that I did,” she said. “I started making memories and having all these crazy experiences. It’s like this music was literally pouring out of me.” Her piano playing improved every day just from practicing every day, she said. She started writing music and lyrics her first year. “The unique thing about this is I never wrote the lyrics at one time,” Urbowski said. “The lyrics are all a collection of feelings and thoughts I wrote down on my phone in the notes app during specific moments. I wrote them down, knowing I would eventually put them into music. Ev-
Carmel Symphony Orchestra Music Director Janna Hymes wants to keep the music alive during the coronaGIVING BACK virus pandemic. “Some of our musicians are making videos and these are appearing on our Facebook page,” Hymes said of the Music Heals, Music Unites, Music Brings People Together program. “It’s a great diversion and gives our musicians a chance to express themselves.” “Let the Music Play ... Getting to Know YOUR CSO” was scheduled to debut April 11 on the CSO Facebook page. A second edition will be presented at 7:30 p.m. April 18, and that likely will continue on more Saturday nights during the spring. “We’ll have interviews and snippets of different musicians just talking or playing,” Hymes said. “It’s a way of getting to know your orchestra in a way you didn’t get to before.” Hymes said musicians might talk about interests and life experiences. “They are 80 different people and they all have different stories and we’re going to be telling those stories and interweave it with concert video,” Hymes said. Hymes said the CSO was building good momentum when the final two concerts were canceled due to the pandemic. “We’re trying to keep the work going, so we are rescheduling concerts, putting the finishing touches on the 2020-21 season and will announce sometime this spring with the hope we can go full force in October,” Hymes said. “The Journey into Jazz” concert with Edgar Meyer was originally scheduled for March 14 and was postponed the day before because of gathering limits. It was postponed again until May 30, but Hymes said it will now be held as part of the 2020-21 season, likely a January date. “The Passport to Prague” concert, scheduled for April 18, has been canceled. But other concerts and events will be added, Hymes said. “It’s a real hard time for some of our musicians. They go from gig to gig, so we feel for them,” Hymes said.
Haley Urbowski’s music crosses several genres of jazz, rhythm and blues and neo-soul. (Submitted photo)
ery song is a compilation of all the phrases and feelings that I had written down. The process was interesting because the way it was coming together was blowing my mind.” Urbowski titled her EP “Iridescent” because each track takes on a different style on who she is as an artist. “It’s like a synergy of jazz, rhythm and blues and neo-soul style all kind of fused together,” she said. “It didn’t fit in one box super well, and that’s kind of the point. For me as an artist and person, I’m really into creating music as a way to authentically show who I am and express my feelings without focusing if it’s going to fit in this box, is it going to fit into pop or that. “I’m passionate about breaking genre barriers and contributing to a new wave of music coming up.” Urbowski has been influenced by artists such as Terrace Martin, Robert Glasper, Frank Ocean, Snoh Aalegra and Daniel
Caesar. She recorded two songs with a band her sophomore year and worked with one producer, who graduated. She worked with a second producer, D.J. Alexander, her last two years. “He was the best person I could have asked. He totally brought the tracks to life,” Urbowski said. She presented a release party performance for the EP at Berklee Feb. 27, and it was officially released the following day. “I was really grateful when I it did because it was my last performance because the coronavirus craziness started,” she said. Urbowski is finishing up her classes online. “Most of my classes are ensembles or voice training, so It’s hard to figure out how to keep up doing the curriculum,” Urbowski said.

Address: 2293 E. 116th St., Carmel What to get: Bacon chicken quesadilla Price: $10.50 Anna’s take: One of my Facebook friends recently asked in a post what we miss most during the COVID-19 pandemic. For me, it’s
visiting Mexican restaurants and gorging on unlimited chips and salsa. It’s not the same with carryout, but you can still order some of your favorite dishes. Visit Loren & Mari in Carmel and try any of their quesadillas. I ordered the bacon chicken quesadilla, which is a flour tortilla filled with chicken, diced bacon, fresh Roma tomatoes and mixed cheeses, served with pico de gallo and sour cream. Delicious. Suggested pairings: I ordered the Jalisco Mule, which is tequila, lime juice and ginger beer. It’s something you can easily make at home. A margarita also would pair well.
