Boone County Special Olympics hosts Torch Run By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com Special Olympics of Boone County invites you and/or your organization to be a part of the fourth Boone County Law Enforcement Torch Run event to benefit Special Olympics. Law enforcement officers, joined by Special Olympics athletes, unified partners, volunteers and community members will be carrying or escorting the “flame of hope” by running with their friends through Boone County communities on April 28. The LETR will take off promptly at 9 a.m. from the Lebanon Public Safety Building, and runners and bicyclers will travel through Boone County and end their trek at Zionsville’s Lions Park at approximately 11:30 a.m. An after-party celebration hosted by the Zionsville Lions Club will celebrate the event.

COMMUNITY Around town CBFC provides $9k for transition support at Morning Dove Therapeutic Riding editorial@youarecurrent.com When Luke arrived for the first day of camp at Morning Dove Therapeutic Riding, he made no eye contact and dragged behind his family, scowling. Luke, who has Autism Spectrum Disorder, informed the staff his summer was being wasted, he didn’t like horses, didn’t want to be teamed with a girl and no one was to talk down to him. Then Luke met his horse, Bella, who immediately rested her muzzle on his shoulder and sighed. For Luke with Bella the next eight weeks, Luke was her advocate, as well as for another horse who was injured. He explained to his friends what his horses were feeling and asked for help to make them feel better. For Luke, shifting from anger to taking care of another and sharing a quiet, easy friendship was life-changing. During his final presentation to campers and parents, Luke announced he was surprised he had actually liked camp very much, and was sad it was ending. His parents told Morning Dove Luke had finally found a place that made him feel good about himself. Luke and countless others will benefit from a recent $9,000 grant awarded by the Community Foundation of Boone County to Morning Dove, which offers equine programs to a wide range of participants with physical, mental and/ or emotional disabilities. The organization is in the midst of a major expansion of its programs, which, in addition to

the summer program for children on the autism spectrum, includes therapeutic riding lessons, hippotherapy and a veteran’s program. “CFBC is pleased to provide support during this transitional time, allowing Morning Dove to immediately begin serving an additional 30 students each session,” said CFBC Executive Director Mike Caldwell. “This 40 percent enrollment increase makes it possible for more

Boone County residents to benefit from Morning Dove’s programs. We look forward to seeing the organization continue to grow and flourish.”

Plain talk

Food, eggs and fun add up to Easter Commentary By Ward Degler The last car backed out of the driveway about 7 p.m., and my wife and I looked at each other with tired smiles. We survived another Easter gathering. This year, the head count stood at 70, many of them kids eager for the Easter egg hunt and the prizes that go with it – find an egg and get a prize. The prizes? Silly, fun stuff mostly. Giant bubble makers that looked like “Star Wars” swords, water pistols, inflatable baseball bats, miniature kites and little helicopter blades you spin in your hands and release for a few seconds of exhilarating flight. That last item was especially popular this year, and for a while, the front yard looked like a plague of locusts. A few of them banged into flying kites, and a couple got shot down by some military-minded kid with a water pistol.

I cooked a 25-pound turkey. Someone brought a gigantic ham. Others loaded the kitchen counter with salads, veggies, breads, pasta and fruit. One entire table was filled with desserts. Eating got into high gear right away, of course, and afterward, everyone spilled outdoors for the egg hunt. When it was over, many took food home for later appetites. Even so, we were left with a fair amount of turkey, ham, green beans, cookies (of course) and a half dozen brightlydecorated cupcakes. I cruised the yard and collected discarded bubble swords, punctured baseball bats, a couple dozen disabled helicopter blades and a trash bag of plastic cups, paper plates and half-eaten cupcakes. I also found a couple head scarves, a pair of sunglasses, a camera lens cap, a baseball cap, one small sweater and a child’s jacket. As for the eggs the kids missed, I’ll find them the next time I mow. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

Helping others/Achievement

Aging with community network Commentary by Tina Voelker During the past 28-29 years as a physical therapist working with older adults, I have had the opportunity to see the physical, mental, emotional and social aspects of aging. It has been a journey that has enriched my life in so many ways. The things I will always remember most are the relationships and the stories shared with me. And no less striking than the stories were the frequent feelings of isolation and a lack of purpose in life. Even though many of these older adults were living in their own homes and “aging in place” as it is called today, there was something crucial missing that is vital to overall health and well-being. Social isolation and depression often go hand in hand with loss of mobility. So what is the answer? My conclusion is “community” is the answer. With a supportive community network, aging is a far more positive journey. And likewise, the gifts, talents and wisdom of the aging population are indeed a gift to the communities it lives in.

Timebanking is a tool that helps build community networks. In a timebank, one hour of volunteerism is paid with one hour of volunteerism. No one skill is more highly valued than another. Every individual is an asset and reciprocity is promoted. No one is considered “too old” to have something of value to offer. By matching my gifts and abilities to another’s need and vice versa, community is nurtured. All generations benefit from interaction with one another. And isn’t that what “community” is meant to accomplish? To care for each other at all levels of the age spectrum, and in a variety of areas of need? During the next decade, as our aging population increases exponentially, a strong community network will only be more important. Tina Voelker is the PT and director of Caring Community Connections Inc. She can be reached at voelkertm@ gmail.com.

Borrower paid title insurance and appraisal fees are required when sum of all liens on property exceed $350,000. Subject to application, credit approval, acceptable appraisal and title search. Advertised APR is available on lines of $50,000 or greater, with loan-to-value ratio of 80% or less, and includes an additional .25% discount for optional automatic payment from a SBL personal checking account. Borrower must meet specific underwriting criteria and draw a minimum of $20,000 at time of closing to obtain the advertised rate and waiver of the $50 annual fee for the life of the loan. The APR is based on Prime plus or minus a margin. The margin is based on your home’s loan-to-value ratio, lien position, owner occupancy status, applicant’s credit history, and the amount of the credit line. The APR is variable and can change monthly, but will never be higher than 21.0%. “Prime” means “Bank Prime Loan’ rate published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in its statistical release H.15 (519) entitled “Selected Interest Rates.” Use of the word “Prime” does not mean that the rate is the best or lowest rate offered by any lender.

Other credit lines are available that require less equity for qualified borrowers. The amount of savings realized with debt consolidation varies by loan. Since a home equity line may have a longer term than some of the bills being consolidated, there may not be a savings over the entire time of the line if you make only the minimum payments. On any day that the account is used to provide overdraft protection for a SBL personal checking account, a $2 transfer fee is charged. You must enroll for this service.

Cover story

From left, Lewis, Benny and Linda Jones and Carra Tucker.

Jones Greenhouse is in its eighth decade as a family affair By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com In 1928, America – and Boone County – were drastically different places than they are today. To provide perspective, during those 12 months the maiden east-to-west trans-Atlantic flight occurred, “Steamboat Willie” became the world’s first film to include sound and the initial machine-sliced, machine-wrapped loaf of bread was sold. So, what hasn’t changed since 1928? Buren J. Jones and Sons Inc., or as many know it, Jones Greenhouse. The Boone County institution, which has boasted a Zionsville location to go along with its original Gadsden site since 2008, is in its 84th year of operation. To hear co-owner Linda Jones speak about her family business’ past and present is to leave little doubt about the reasons for its success. “Our secret has been service, I believe,” Jones says. “When someone buys something here, we carry it to the car for them. We’ve been known to deliver to people who can’t make it out.” Jones, who married into the family business at age 20, has now been a part of the operation for 40 growing seasons, give or take a few to raise her children. The service aspect of the business has endured, but there have been changes along the way, too. “The oldest building in Gadsden is a greenhouse that’s 34 years old – everything has been remodeled, starting in 1995,” says Jones of her family’s approximately 60,000 square feet of enclosed greenhouse space. “Since I started, many more things are auto-

matically watered now, and everything is plastic. Back then, you had clay pots in wooden trays, which got very heavy.” Jones Greenhouse’s business model is a relatively simple one. Employing a staff of just two salaried workers and 10 to 12 total at any given time, the greenhouse grows nearly everything it sells from seeds at the Gadsden location. Some plants are then transported to the Zionsville storefront, at U.S. 421 and 146th Street, where price, quality and the ever-present service reach a different clientele. In an age of massive garden centers inside equally-massive department or home-improvement stores, Jones Greenhouse’s method is strikingly different. “We cut out the middle man,” Jones says. “Lowe’s and places like that, they don’t grow anything they sell; it’s all brought to them. Most of the time, even though our product is better because we grow it, our prices are lower. We make sure we have the right nutrients. That’s the difference.” Jones Greenhouse, as it is today, was always a family affair. Founded in 1928 – “That’s the earliest year I found seed catalogs Current in Zionsville

from,” says Jones – by Jones’ father- and mother-in-law Buren J. and Martha Rae Jones, the operation soon included their sons, David and Benny. Benny, the younger brother by 16 years, is Linda’s husband. Today, David is retired and the reins have gone to Benny and Linda, as well as a sister of Benny’s who does part-time book work. In true Jones fashion, however, there is another chapter to the regime in the offing. “I have a son and a daughter who work with us now, and my son plans on taking this over,” Jones says. “I also have nine grandchildren, and they’re here most of the time.” The years have brought good times and bad, all of them memorable, along with the changes. “We’ve had famous customers, from the Stokely VanCamps to Tom Carnegie,” says Jones. “We did the flowers for the opening of (downtown Indianapolis’) Lockerbie Square, and we did the mums for the Traders Point Horse Show for 32 years.” Recent construction along U.S. 421 was a problem for the Zionsville location, but the site pulled through. Jones said there are no plans to expand the business, which typically opens its year with pansies this month and ends it with mums in October, and a return to one location is not out of the question. One storefront or two, it’s certain Jones Greenhouse is primed for another 80-plus springs, summers and autumns. “We’ve built up a pretty faithful clientele,” Jones says. “Everyone’s always been nice and they enjoy coming here. It’s something I’m planning on handing down.”

Jones Greenhouse is offering classes for the first time this season. Most workshops are on Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. at the Zionsville location, and classes such as Unique Container Workshop and Make Your Own Fairy Garden are offered. Visit jonesgreenhouse.com for details. April 17, 2012 | 9


VIEWS

Editorial Maybe this is a case where a referendum makes sense

Chilling effects It is our position freedom of speech is not only a right, but a privilege. The general public has access to the widest array and farthest-reaching communications tools the world has ever known. It seems lately the First Amendment is getting quite a workout. Recent events such as a Marine being discharged for using his Facebook page to de-face the President, a high school student being suspended for tweeting profanities allegedly with school property and Arizona recently passing a law making “annoying” and “offensive” online speech illegal, has made many wonder if our right to free speech is in jeopardy. Are these events truly examples of the chilling effects of expressing one’s opinion via social media, or are they a chillingly realistic window to behavior in a modern day society? James Madison authored the First Amendment with the intent of granting power through liberty, a privilege thought to be a necessity for the safety and happiness of the people. John Milton argued an individual is capable of using reason and distinguishing right from wrong, good from bad. If they had a crystal ball, would our forefathers have written amendments for linguistics and manners into the Bill of Rights?

Commentary by Terry Anker

With the advent of digital cameras, the world of memory preserving has changed immensely. Time was that we all made judicious use of the expensive and often temperamental film employed to record our important vistas and milestones. Now, we can shoot thousands of shots. Virtually unrestricted by incremental cost, once we invest in the camera, the photos are free. My computer and telephone are filled with scores of images; and, my screensaver takes me on a halcyon journey with the progression of each photo from my collection. Yet in spite of all the advantages, I miss the tactile nature of developed prints. Even while most general retailers can produce the pictures for pennies each, we routinely fail to have them made. Add it to the list of good intentions – we plan to print and share, but are daunted by the effort required to review 100 pictures to find just the right one. Is it a basic tenant of human nature to col-

lect – even hoard – all manner and sort of object or experience, and yet never commit the time to fully enjoy them? Perhaps it is simply the urge to accumulate that stimulates us. Whatever the root our desire to build a personal stash of our favorite things can, in itself, become an addiction. But even if we manage to control the urge to overstuff our homes and our lives, we still have to find time to enjoy those things we have collected. As a boy, I was amazed by people who had all the toys and times I thought I needed in my life. Yet, they would let them sit unused and unenjoyed. Like many things with the passage of time, I have come to realize it is more complicated than once thought. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Now that the Zionsville Town Council has given its thumbs-up to the Zionsville Community Schools referendum, it seems to be a major emotional lift for proponents. The Town Council endorsed the referendum during its meeting last Monday night. We know Supt. Scott Robison took on his job and immediately became responsible for ZCS’ $300 million of debt. We also know Robison hasn’t added 1 cent of debt, and he actually has chopped away mightily at the deficit. Ordinarily, we oppose referenda, preferring instead a reasonable alignment with the public sector with respect to compensation plans. It seems to have reached the point, though, where top-quality education really is affected by lack of adequate funding. ••• As the U.S. 31 Freeway Project now is under way with quite a fervor, we urge motorists from Boone and Hamilton counties to exercise extreme patience – if not a little ingenuity – in dealing what many already are calling “the three-year mess.” The finished product, we believe, will be worth the wait and certain hassles. Further, it isn’t a mess; it’s progress taking shape. We have opined in this space before on the positive aspects this project will deliver. To get to the good, we must find a way to sanely endure the “ugly,” and that means finding ways around snarled traffic, keeping your cool and allowing plenty of extra time during peak commute hours. A customary 10-minute drive last week took us more than 25 minutes. Patience! It will be worth it in the end. “Coping skills” may be found at us31hamiltoncounty.in.gov.

Editor, After 35 years as an elementary teacher, a strong Indiana State Teachers Association/ National Education Association supporter and a Zionsville resident of more than 20 years, I'd like to share my views of why I am voting “No” concerning the school referendum. During the years, it has been frustrating to see programs, books, etc., costing thousands of dollars bought and not used. Becoming a Four Star School involves character traits that money can't buy:

care, dedication, effort and a respectful attitude just to name a few on the part of students, parents, administrators and teachers. Zionsville is already an expensive place to live. With our utilities increasing probably 30 percent, along with a possible 1-percent tax on all bank transactions, an increase in property taxes will have a lot of homeowners not being able to keep up their properties. Definitely not a plus in attracting new residents! P. Helvey, 46077

Driving down to New Orleans Laughs by Danielle Wilson When my Louisville Cardinals made it to the Final Four in New Orleans, I joked with my husband about going down for the game. The following evening, after Kentucky earned its own ticket, the joke turned into something real. University of Louisville versus University of Kentucky? With the winner going to the national championship? That’s a no brainer. So I emailed my dad and sister, both Louisville alums, and discovered I could have a hotel room floor and a driving partner if I wanted. I WANTED. I quickly called Doo, in Alabama on business, to inform him of my plans. He whined at being excluded (even though he’s an Indiana University fan) and spread the guilt on thick enough to smother any simple plan of getting to the game. Luckily, I am the Queen of Logistics Miracles and quickly set to work to devise a way for us both to go. Despite single-parenting, working full time and driving to/attending an inordinate amount of practices and concerts, within three days, I’d located a sitter (a longlost cousin who happened to have nothing going on that weekend), organized a place to stay (a different cousin’s boyfriend’s parents’ house) and painted “Final Four, Baby!” and “Cardi Gras Bound” all over the minivan. Thursday night found me heading south to collect one

sister from the Mega-Bus stop in downtown Indy, one from the Ville and an engaged couple whom I’d never met but had promised to pay for gas. The next 38 hours were a whirlwind of emotion and activity. When you take the Battle of the Bluegrass to Bourbon Street, things get crazy quickly. My sisters jammed with an old guy for 30 minutes before they realized it was Jimmy Buffett. A Kentucky-clad Doo talked Bobby Knight into taking a photo with him. And, I fell victim to hormones and fatigue resulting in an all-out brawl with Doo in the valet lot of the Cardinals' hotel that ended with me crying myself to sleep and Doo drinking all night with our Katrina-survivor host. I also had a hurricane shutter fall on me, met an Irish-mafia vampire and almost missed tip-off awaiting the arrival of my ticket-toting inebriated sister who’d lost track of time in the French Quarter. Louisville lost, and the 14-hour drive home was so not fun. (Damn you, construction!) But I crossed off a bucket list item, and for me, that made the madness worth it. Peace out.

Wellness Helpful tips to protect skin outside HEALTH

Commentary by Dr. Melanie Kingsley

As we head outdoors to enjoy the warm spring weather, now is the perfect time to review the best ways to protect your skin from sun damage. It’s important to wear a sunscreen with a sun protection factor of 30 or more when exposed to the sun for an extended period. Sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide provide the best protection and should be applied to your entire body before going outside. It’s best to reapply sunscreen every two hours or sooner if you begin developing sunburn, and remember: Do everything you can to prevent your skin from burning. Sunburn causes DNA damage to skin cells, which can lead to skin cancer, as well as wrinkles and other damaging effects. In addition to good sunscreen, there are hats, beachwear and protective clothing that have ultraviolet protection; look for “ultraviolet protection factor” on the label. Even if you are only exposed to the sun for a limited time, you should use a daily sunscreen. We are exposed to harmful UV rays while driving a car, sitting by a window or walking from the car to our destination. Routine exposure to harmful UV rays can lead to skin cancer and photoaging (wrinkles and brown spots). This is especially true for tanning beds. With proms and other seasonal special events right around the corner, teenagers and others are strongly discouraged from using tanning beds, which

If you are already showing signs of photoaging, using a daily sunscreen, as well as topical antiaging products that include retinoids and vitamin C, will help prevent and reverse signs of sun damage. Laser treatments may also be considered to help reduce fine lines and brown spots. The Fraxel Dual laser was recently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the treatment and prevention of precancerous lesions called actinic keratosis. This laser also helps treat brown spots and fine lines. A dermatologist can discuss such treatment options with you. Enjoy this wonderful weather and please make sure to protect your skin!

DOUGH

Business

Move the needle: Automatic leadership Commentary by CJ McClanahan You’ve just completed another 65-hour week and had the realization something’s got to change. No amount of money is worth all this stress, exhaustion and time away from family. It’s time to bring on some additional help. However, unless you understand how to lead, you may have just signed up for more work and frustration. Keep in mind leading an individual is completely different than managing employees. Anybody can send out an e-mail with a list of tasks and follow up to make certain they were complete. Anyone can manage – few people know how to lead. First, a great leader starts by understanding the “why.” Understanding the “why” simply means you need to take time to figure out what your employees hope to get out of their careers. In other words, you need to know what a perfect career looks like for each of your direct reports. How much would they (employees) like to make? What would their title be? What skills would they be developing? Before you start, it’s important to note I have asked thousands of employees these questions and almost no one has any idea what they want their career to look like in the future. You’ll need to help them stretch their horizons a little bit and get them dreaming. Next, be prepared for some of your staff to have a vi-

sion for their careers that doesn’t include you and your company. That’s perfectly normal. They were going to leave anyway – everybody does. Why not get the most out of them while they’re here? Second, once you know where your employees want to go, it’s important you set some clear expectations to help them get there. Most leaders think an annual review and sporadic staff meetings qualify as setting clear expectations. Not true. Employees are like teenagers: They do a lot of head bobbing (up and down) to our instructions, but rarely give us their full attention. As a result, you need to set and reset expectations all the time. I recommend you start weekly at a minimum. When your staff doesn’t meet expectations, you have to hold them accountable. Because holding people accountable is often uncomfortable, many leaders permit the failure to meet expectations convincing themselves “They probably won’t make this mistake again.” Don’t let that be you. Avoiding these conversations doesn’t fix the problem; it just makes it worse. As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is execute. CJ McClanahan is the founder and president of reachmore, a leadership training and consulting firm, and also the author of “Thrive.” To contact CJ, or to find out more about reachmore, go to www.goreachmore.com.

Secrets of the pyramids Commentary by Don Knebel The Great Pyramid of Giza remains the most massive structure ever built. Its base covers 13 acres and it was the tallest thing made by man for almost 4,000 years, when it was eclipsed by the spire of Lincoln Cathedral. By any standard, the Great Pyramid is extraordinary. And yet, so monumental and almost otherworldly does the Great Pyramid loom in the common imagination that many visitors to Giza come away vaguely disappointed. It is a little like standing at the edge of the Grand Canyon and not being amazed that it could have been created by flowing water because, after all, there it is. But there are legitimate surprises for people who visit the Giza plateau to see the Great Pyramid and the smaller ones nearby. For example, photographs of strategicallyplaced visitors approaching the Giza pyramids on camels help maintain the illusion the pyramids are far out in the desert. They are not. Giza is right next door to Cairo, a sprawling city of 17 million people. Another common misconception, fostered by late-night movies, is the pyramids were built by thousands of slaves led by bare-chested Egyptians wielding whips. The pyramids were almost certainly built by paid workers, perhaps including farmers during the off season.

14 | April 17, 2012

Pyramids of Giza overlooking Cairo. (Photo by Don Knebel)

People visiting Egypt are surprised to learn the art of building pyramids was at its pinnacle near the beginning and went downhill from there. The largest and most complex of the true pyramids, the Great Pyramid of Khufu completed in about 2560 B.C., was also one of the first. The 100 or so pyramids of subsequent pharaohs were less impressive. The pyramid of King Teti, who died in about 2300 B.C., is little more than a pile of rubble. As witnessed many times in history, continued progress of civilization is never guaranteed.

Jump-start your garden Commentary by Chris Arney

As many garden centers begin to display tomatoes, peppers, squash and other warm-season vegetable plants, it is still too early to transplant them to the garden. Mother’s Day is the safe date when danger of frost has typically passed. By employing a few “tricks” to jump-start your plants, you can get ahead on the growing season now. Select vigorous looking plants with a deep green color and sturdy stems. Bigger is not always better. Even selecting plants that come in cell packs (four to six plants) will work, and tend to be less expensive than larger potted plants. During the next month, you can transform these small seedlings into plants that will be nearly knee-high by planting time. Transplant the seedlings into larger pots; gallon size works the best. Add enough potting soil as not to bury the plants deeper than they are currently. This will allow far more room for the roots to grow and thrive. Thoroughly water in the new plants to settle the soil and force the air out.

Avoid overwatering; letting the soil dry somewhat in between watering will encourage the roots to grow. Fertilizing with a liquid fertilizer once a week will also encourage new plant growth. While temperatures remain cool, bring the plants inside at night. Find a sunny location to place them in during the day. Fluctuating temperatures, wind and rain will help to “harden off” the young plants and will help them to be ready for the garden. When planting time comes, your plants will be strong, healthy and ready to flourish in your garden. Roots will have grown throughout the entire pot, prepared to feed your plants for the coming season. Following these simple procedures will provide healthier vegetable plants that will yield more harvest for you to enjoy.

Take care of your lawn – Doing things such as removing thatch with a rake, aeration, using extra fertilization where roots compete with grass and watering for a long enough period of time are somewhat common lawn care techniques, but often are overlooked by homeowners. - almanac.com

Creative design for new screened-in porch Landscaping by Larry Greene Original backyard setting: This home located in the Bayhill neighborhood in Carmel was built in the mid-90s. The existing backyard area was nicely landscaped and also included a simple wood deck. The family always wanted to add a screened porch, but due to the existing windows and the roof profiles, it had never been able to figure out how or where to tie a porch into the existing home. Design challenges: The project designer presented the homeowner with various options to connect the porch to the home. The homeowner wanted to maintain the windows in the master bathroom on the second floor, and also wanted to avoid placing the porch in front of the family room windows. The creative final solution was to create a new hip roof and move the porch out about 8 feet from the house, and add a connecting roof. This allowed the nice open cathedral ceiling the owners wanted while maintaining the natural light from the existing home windows. Exterior and interior details: The porch

was finished with new HardiePanel exterior siding and cedar trim on the knee walls. To add architectural detail, the corner support posts were finished with new decorative stone column bases. Finally, a new pergola was added above the existing deck including 4-by-4 cedar posts and decorative columns with stone bases to match the porch. The porch includes new fiberglass screens and two new screen doors. The porch ceiling includes a painted beadboard ceiling with cedar-wrapped beams. The porch flooring is cedar decking boards covered with semitransparent oil-based stain. Final results: The homeowners added new landscaping and stone pathways to complement the new porch. The new porch gives the family a place to sit, relax and enjoy the beauty of the backyard setting.
