Spartz reflects on first months in Congress By Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz began her first term representing Indiana’s 5th District Q&A on Jan. 3. During one for her frequent visits to the district, Current caught up with Spartz for a Q&A interview after she had finished tourSpartz ing the Lawrence Police Dept. headquarters. How has your experience in Washington, D.C., over the last several months differed from your expectations going in? I didn’t have very high expectations. I’m not naive. I’ve been in politics long enough. It’s unfortunate. Such a serious institution with an important function and it’s become so dysfunctional. I talked to one of the members, Alaska’s Don Young. He’s been there since 1973; he’s the second congressman since Alaska became a state, and I asked him, “Has it always been that bad?” And he says, “It’s never been as bad as it is right now.” H.R. 1 recently passed the House and now is sitting in the Senate. It aims to federalize many of our country’s voting processes. Why did you vote against the bill? H.R. 1 is actually an awful bill. There are a lot of things in that bill that are centralizing
more power in the federal government. To think that a small group of people know better and are superior to millions of people on the ground, I would say it is probably the opposite. I think centralizing (an increasing amount of power) is a very bad idea The bill would cause significant change to Indiana’s election laws by federalizing elections and eliminating the voter ID requirement. Do you think the federal government should be involved in how individual states operate their elections? I think it’s more of a state issue than a federal issue. There are a few things that the federal government can look inside, like how we can improve more integrity of the federal elections and just deal with the federal piece. And having IDs, there is nothing wrong with that. We have IDs for everything. You cannot get on the plane without having an ID. The more populations grow, if you don’t have some controls in place, then that creates more opportunity for fraud. Infrastructure is a big agenda item for President Joe Biden, and the bill — American Jobs Plan — is going to cost a lot. What was your take on it? Unfortunately, in the COVID bill, only 10 percent was related to COVID-19. And now in the infrastructure bill, only 6 percent is related to actual infrastructure that people think of — roads and bridges. I think if the president wants to have debate on other
issues, we can have a separate debate, but he cannot lump every issue that he wants to deal with into one bill to try to force everyone to vote for something. It’s one thing, at least, if we spend our money and invest in assets like roads and bridges and tangible infrastructure that’s going to last us. You can justify (to future generations), “OK, you guys are going to take advantage of this.” Instead (we are) spending money to put bandages on issues that have existed for a long time and not resolving them. How do you think our area of Indiana, maybe even Indiana as a whole, matches up with the rest of the country? Are we doing better, worse? We have a lot to offer in this state, and I think it provides us an opportunity to compete with other states. We have good, stable laws. We have a good regulatory environment. We have good schools. We have economic growth and a low tax base. Going around other states, I’ve been very disturbed to see what is happening out there. We have a very efficient operation, and the other states are wasting money left and right, and I feel like my citizens in Indiana have to pay for it? That’s very frustrating. Why should we pay for programs in other states, New York and California, that don’t do a good job? That’s their state. If you don’t like it, move to another state or take down your elected officials.
Speed study: Sycamore Street speed limit OK By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com A speed study conducted by the Town of Zionsville determined the 45 mph speed limit on Sycamore Street, COUNCIL one of the town’s primary entryways, is appropriate for motorists. As a result, the Zionsville Town Council won’t reduce the speed limit. In October 2020, the homeowner’s association of Raintree Place conducted a survey of residents in the neighborhood, asking if they would be in favor of reducing the speed limit on Sycamore Street. When the survey revealed the majority of Raintree Place residents favored the idea, the homeowner’s association petitioned to lower the speed limit, asking the town establish “a consistency with speed limits entering and exiting the town, providing increased safety
for Raintree residents entering and exiting our neighborhood and eliminating unnecessary acceleration of vehicles over this .9 mile stretch of road.” At the request of town officials, Lance Lantz, the town’s director of public works, was asked to conduct a speed study of Sycamore Street to see if the town council needed to reduce the speed limit. A speed study captures data of car speeds on the roadway during a given time, and the data is used to determine whether the roadway’s speed limit should increase, stay the same or be decreased. Lantz said Indiana guidelines suggest speed limits be within 5 percent of the 85th percentile speed of cars on the roadway. “What this means, basically, is that 85 percent of the world travels at a safe or reasonable speed for any given roadway,” Lantz said. “We found in each location that
the 85th percentile speed was right about 5 mph faster than the posted speed limit.” Lantz told the Zionsville Town Council during an April 19 meeting that based on the speed study’s results, Sycamore Street has an appropriate speed limit. He said that if the council were to change the speed limit, data would suggest increasing it. “I don’t think that’s where anyone wanted to go with this, and that is certainly not my recommendation,” Lantz said. Josh Garrett, the town council’s president, said the council values a scientific approach to determining speed limits. “If there are concerns about speed, Mr. Lantz goes through a process, and based on that study makes a recommendation,” Garrett said. “Me, personally, I vote based on that recommendation. I think if we do otherwise and arbitrarily set speeds, it will just turn to chaos.”

More than half of all eligible county residents fully vaccinated By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com More than 50 percent of eligible Boone County residents are fully vaccinated against COVID-19, according PANDEMIC to the Indiana State Dept. of Health. With 50.8 percent of county residents fully vaccinated, Boone County is the second Indiana county to fully inoculate more than half of its eligible population. Ohio County in southeast Indiana has fully vaccinated 56.5 percent of its eligible population, although it has significantly fewer residents. According to the ISDH, 52,224 eligible Hoosiers reside in Boone County, and 4,860 reside in Ohio County. Claire Haughton, public health educator for the Boone County Health Dept., said the number of fully vaccinated county residents is encouraging. “I think everybody thinks it’s very exciting,” Haughton said. “From the get-go, I think Boone County has really tried to take
a proactive approach to the pandemic. We are all just really thankful Boone County is kind of leading the way. This is not the first time we have heard from our emergency preparedness partners at the state that Boone County has been doing a really good job. I think it’s just a testament to the community working together and, of course, always, our volunteers.” Although counties across the state report more residents becoming fully vaccinated, state health officials have said clinics are administering fewer vaccinations each week, indicating a decrease in demand now that all Indiana residents 16 and older are eligible for vaccines and walk-in appointments are now offered. Haughton said the BCHD, at its Boone County 4-H Fairgrounds clinic, has not seen a drastic decrease in vaccine demand, but it is offering fewer available hours. The clinic is open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday, 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. each Friday.

COMMUNITY DISPATCHES Wright’s convictions and sentence affirmed — In a 4-1 decision on May 4, the Indiana Supreme Court affirmed the convictions and sentence of Zachariah Brian Wright, 23. In January of 2020, Boone Superior Court I Judge Matthew Kincaid sentenced Wright to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole, plus 20 1⁄2 years at the Indiana Dept. of Corrections. The convictions and sentence stem from Wright’s violent acts perpetrated on Sonja Foster and the murder of Max Foster in the morning hours of June 18, 2017, while they were asleep in their Lebanon residence. Zionsville man recognized for community service — After discovering their shared desire to give back to the community, Northwestern Mutual-Indiana Wealth Management Advisor Mark Wise, a Zionsville resident, and former Colts player Ryan Diem formed a partnership to help children and families affected by childhood cancer find hope. The duo has stayed committed to supporting the cause for over three years through an annual Strike Out Cancer event, where Wise’s involvement has helped raise more than $300,000 for childhood cancer research. Because of his efforts, Wise was recognized by Northwestern Mutual as a 2021 Community Service Award winner. As part of his award, Mark donated a $20,000 grant to Peyton Manning’s Children’s Hospital. Town announces new hires — The Town of Zionsville announced four new hires: two hires in the Planning and Economic Development Dept. and two hires in the Dept. of Public Works. Zach Lutz joins the Zionsville Planning and Economic Development Dept. as planner of zoning and Suzanne Baker joins the department as planner of petitions BZA. In the DPW, George Lewis joins the department as the engineering division supervisor and town engineer and DJ O’Toole joins the department as its engineer. The hires mark the first time the town has hired individual staff members to function as the town engineer and engineer, which are part of DPW’s engineering division. The roles will bring in-house talent to the town and enhance internal and external project coordination and operational efficiencies, Amanda Vela, the town’s public information officer, stated. The town expects the hires to reduce expenses for outside consulting while increasing substantially increasing services. According to the town, initial estimates indicate an annual savings of over $300,000 once the transition to in-house services is complete.

Gallery to feature artist, live painting with a flower brush By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com CV Art and Frame will display a new art exhibit from May 15 through May 29. On the same day, Cuban-born artPANDEMIC ist Carlos Gamez de Francisco, whose art will be featured, will paint an original piece using a flower in place of an art brush. The art exhibit, which is open to the public, will go on display starting at 10 a.m. May 15 at 110 S. Main Gamez de St. in Zionsville. Masks Francisco are required. Gamez de Francisco will arrive by noon and begin painting at 1 p.m. Rhonda Crawshaw, the gallery’s director, said Gamez de Francisco will spend multiple hours painting and will speak to visitors about his life and artwork afterward. Gamez de Francisco, who lives in Kentucky, was born in Cuba in 1987. He decided he wanted to be an artist at age 5, and by 15 he was painting eight hours each day to refine his skills, often using whatever tools were available, such as a flower in place of a brush, because of the scarcity of art supplies in Cuba. “He didn’t always have the art supplies he needed to create, and he had been creating since he was a young boy, so he would use anything he could find to paint with. He would use coffee grounds as pigment,” Crenshaw said. “He would make special dyes. He would paint with whatever he could get his hands on. And a flower, he’s comfortable with that, and we thought it would be really fun to have him do that live,

in front of our gallery guests.” Crawshaw said Gamez de Francisco moved to America when he was 21 to pursue his dream. He spoke no English and had only $650. He spent $600 on art supplies. He spent the remainder on a pair of Nike Cortez running shoes, the same kind Forrest Gump wore when he ran across the United States in the titular movie. Gamez de Francisco’s art, including original pieces, will be available for purchase at the gallery during the event or online at cvartandframe.com/?s=carlos. Gamez de Francisco also accepts commission artwork, Crawshaw said.

Witham offers online training By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com Indiana University has partnered with Witham Health Services to offer free online training in the administraPANDEMIC tion of naloxone, a life-saving drug that is used to reverse opioid overdoses. The training, called the Opioid Rapid Response System, uses the PulsePoint mobile app to link citizen responders to possible opioid overdose events in public places in the community as they happen. The app is connected to 911 services and can immediately inform users of emergencies occurring in their community and can request help when CPR is needed, according to the app’s website, pulsepoint.org. Citizen responders who use the app are members of the general public trained in naloxone and rescue breathing administration but who are not trained first responders. Indiana University’s goal is to provide training to people in Boone, Dearborn, Hancock, Madison and Monroe counties, according to Witham officials. All participants receive a free naloxone kit and compensation
upon training completion. “A few minutes can make all the difference,” said Mary Beth Searles, Witham’s director of marketing and public relations. “First responders often take longer to arrive, so (having the) general public trained could save a life and help until first responders arrive. Witham sees firsthand those that could benefit from this in our (emergency department).” Witham Health Services Foundation started the Mental Health in the Emergency Dept. program in 2019. Each patient who comes to Witham’s emergency department with a mental health crisis can receive immediate treatment from a mental health professional from Integrated Wellness LLC. From Nov. 19, 2019, to Oct. 31, 2020, Witham saw 169 patients in the department who had a mental health crisis, of which 109 presented with suicidal ideations and 57 came in due to substance use, according to a press release. To sign up for the free training, visit prevention.iu.edu/projects/orrs/training.php. To learn more about the program, visit witham.org/foundation/fund-the-need/fundthe-need or call 765-485-8112.

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.
BACKGROUND: Klem has always been an active person, enjoying spinning classes, gardening, and spending time with his family. After several months of issues with his shoulder, Klem decided that it was time Klem loves spending to reach out to Methodist Sports Medicine time with his family and schedule an appointment. Due to chronic kidney issues, Klem was not a good candidate for a shoulder replacement, so instead, he decided to take the physical therapy route.
WHY MSM: “The staff at MSM were welcoming and helpful in establishing and exceeding my personal goals,” says Klem.
THE JOURNEY: When Klem arrived at Methodist Sports Medicine – Noblesville, he couldn’t lift his arm past his waist. Klem’s physical therapist, Mike Hornak, eased him in to rehab with goals of improving Klem’s range of motion and strength. Once Klem and Mike spent a few sessions together, they were able to move on to full body and strength conditioning exercises, such as HIIT and weight training. Klem is now able to lift a five pound bar overhead, bench press a 20 pound medicine ball, and has drastically increased his cardiovascular endurance.
Dr. Peter Sallay

Recognize and prevent a stroke Commentary by Dr. Nihal Bakeer Stroke is the leading cause of serious long-term disability and the fifth-leading cause of death in the AWARENESS U.S. With May being Stroke Awareness Month, everyone should learn the signs, symptoms and ways to prevent a dangerous and potentially deadly stroke. Spotting stroke Strokes in children are rare, but they can and do happen. Recognizing strokes in children and adults could save a life. Use the B.E.F.A.S.T. acronym to identify signs of stroke and know when to call 911: • Balance: Is the person losing coordination or balance? Is he or she having trouble walking? • Eyes: Is the person having trouble seeing out of one or both eyes? • Face: If the person feels one side of the face is droopy or numb, ask for a smile. Does one side of the face droop? Is a smile lopsided or uneven? • Arm: If the person says one arm is weak or numb, ask him or her to raise both arms. Does one arm drift down? • Speech: If speech is slurred, ask the person to repeat a sentence. Are the words slurred? Is the person having trouble getting words out or understanding? • Time to Call 911: If you recognize any of these symptoms, call 911 and get the person to the hospital as soon as possible. Even if the symptoms go away, it is important to get immediate medical attention. Brain cells may be dying! Preventing stroke The American Stroke Association (stroke. org) has a list of risk factors you can control, treat and improve to help reduce your risk for stroke. At the top of the list are high blood pressure, smoking, diabetes, diet, physical inactivity and obesity. If you check off any of these top contributing stroke risk factors, schedule a physical with your primary health care provider to discuss your concerns and develop a plan for a healthier you. Carmel resident Dr. Nihal Bakeer is a pediatric hematologist-oncologist at the Indiana Hemophilia & Thrombosis Center in Indianapolis and co-directs the multidisciplinary pediatric and neonatal stroke team at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital.

New benefit to help families of COVID victims Column by Carol Applegate More than 12,900 Hoosiers have died from COVID-19 since the pandemic began. The deaths take a toll not AWARENESS only on the emotions of their families but also on their finances. Funerals are expensive, totaling thousands of dollars. Yet, there’s new help that many Hoosiers don’t know about. COVID-19-related deaths are part of a national emergency. As a result, the Federal Emergency Management Agency began accepting applications for COVID-19 funeral assistance April 12. FEMA is reimbursing families for up to $9,000 per COVID-related funeral or $35,000 per application if multiple family members died from the virus. My law firm, Applegate & Dillman Elder Law, is busy educating other estate planners, probate attorneys, financial planners and families about this little-known benefit. Who is eligible? There are some guidelines if you plan to apply for the funding. Applicants must have paid for funeral expenses for someone who died from COVID-19 in the U.S., its territories
or the District of Columbia after Jan. 20, 2020. Applicants also must be U.S. citizens, non-citizen nationals or qualified aliens. The death certificate for the person who died must state that the death was caused by, may have been caused by or was likely a result of COVID-19 or COVID-19-like symptoms. What is covered? A wide range of expenses may be eligible for reimbursement if the application is approved. Expenses include the casket or urn, burial plot or cremation niche and a marker or headstone. It’s important to note that any expenses paid for by burial or funeral insurance, a pre-paid funeral contract, a pre-paid trust for funeral expenses or an irrevocable trust are not eligible for reimbursement. Once an application is approved and expenses are verified, the applicant will receive a paper check or direct deposit into their bank account. What documents do I need? Before applying, you need to gather some information. You will need the death certificate, proof of funeral expenses and proof of assistance from any other source, such as donations, funeral insurance or a pre-paid
funeral contract. You also will need the Social Security numbers and birth dates for both the applicant and the deceased family member. The address of where the death happened is important, as is the mailing address and telephone number for the applicant. Finally, be sure to have the applicant’s bank account and routing numbers available for direct deposit. To apply, you must call FEMA’s COVID-19 Funeral Assistance Line at 844-684-6333 Monday through Friday between the hours of 9 a.m. and 9 p.m., Eastern time. Online applications aren’t accepted. You will need to upload, fax or mail in your documentation once you get an application number. Although the funeral assistance can’t replace a loved one, it will go a long way toward easing the financial burdens associated with saying goodbye. Carol Applegate is an attorney at Applegate & Dillman Elder Law. The firm specializes in elder law and Life Care Planning, a holistic approach to deal with legal, financial, medical and emotional issues involved in growing older.

Zionsville honors late public servant, conservationist for contributions By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com A Zionsville woman’s dedication to preserving the town’s natural landscape was formally recognized April 29, more than three years after her death, when Zionsville Mayor Emily Styron proclaimed the day Lana Funkhouser Day. Since her death in January 2018, Funkhouser has been remembered as a town servant and a catalyst in the town’s efforts to sustain its woodlands. She spent 16 years as president of the Zionsville Plan Commission and was vice president of the town’s board of zoning appeals before that. She also was a member of the town’s historical society at the SullivanMunce Cultural Center. In 2002, the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce presented Funkhouser its Town Crier Award, an annual honor that recognizes a town resident for contributions to the community. Funkhouser also founded the Town of Zionsville’s People of Zionsville for the Aesthetics of Zionsville committee, known as PZAZ. The committee, which consists of volunteers, promotes urban forestry and streetscape beautification in Zionsville, causes that were dear to Funkhouser, those who knew her said. On April 29, a tree dedication ceremony was held at the Zionsville Town Hall Plaza to honor Funkhouser and her contributions to the town. “We had started talking about this last year, but obviously, because of COVID, it wasn’t something we were ready to pursue because we needed to be able to bring people together to honor this amazing community spirit and leader in person. This was not a Zoom event,” Styron said. “She has touched so many lives, and most people don’t even understand it. My family moved here 21 years ago because of the beautiful trees and preservation of natural land that she played such a fundamental role in years and years and decades before we moved here.” Funkhouser’s sister, Sally Perlstein, spoke at the ceremony. “The Town of Zionsville meant everything to Lana,” Perlstein said. “I think that Lana is just a true civic leader, and everything that she did really emotes that.” Greta Sanderson, a member of PZAZ, said she first met Funkhouser when the latter was president of the Zionsville Plan Commission. “She ran those meetings with grace and understanding, but there was no doubt who was in charge,” Sanderson said. “Then I heard about this group she was putting together with the town named PZAZ. As a native of Zionsville at a time when the town was just beginning to experience its potential, Lana was keenly aware of the town’s need to preserve the town’s roots as it grew.” Funkhouser graduated from Zionsville High School, where she was a cheerleader and prom queen. She later graduated from Indiana University with a Bachelor of Science in

Lance Lantz, the town’s director of public works, worked with Funkhouser for many years. He said she was akin to a mentor when he first joined the public sector. “She possessed that personality trait that allowed her to get things done and command a presence while not making you feel like you were being commanded,” Lantz said. “She was just passionate about (preservation). It was important to her. It was who she was.”

human resources administration. She spent more than 40 years in hospital administration, beginning in 1972 at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, according to her obituary. She returned to Indiana in 1974, where she continued her career at St. Vincent Hospital in Indianapolis. In 2003, she helped found the Clarian West Medical Center, which became IU Health West Hospital.
Through her activism, Lana Funkhouser was instrumental in Zionsville receiving its first Tree City designation, town officials said. The Arbor Day Foundation, in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service and the National Association of State Foresters, sponsors the Tree City program, which recognizes communities’ commitments to effective urban forest management. The town’s Tree City designation has continued for 20 consecutive years. Town officials celebrated the recent achievement during an April 29 ceremony honoring Funkhouser.

HUMOR
Web of lies
Home is where the stress is
Commentary by Terry Anker About six months into the COVID-19 lockdowns, many of us came to know that we needed another, perhaps larger, pair of sweatpants. While our lungs remained gratefully clear, our arteries were filling with too many snacks and too little movement. With stores closed, we either had to Zoom with no pants or order online. For most of us, anyway, we clicked. There are scores of options out there promising the sublime and the ridiculous. Eventually, we make our choice and advance to check out. The sites then turn from smiling sales clerk to more ominous back-office sweatshop. “Give us your personal information! Give us your financial information! Give us your permission for an endless parade of spam from us and anyone who will pay us to direct their harangue at you! Sure, we’ll say that we value your privacy and care deeply about you. But in the fine print, oh, the fine print, we may conceal a bit.” Once someone decides that we have “opted in,” is there any limit to that license? It is a slippery slope. We should not have peered into the internet abyss. But now we have, and can no more stop, the marketing deluge than we can get the excess super glue from our fingers. We try to unsubscribe. Seemingly, it only makes it worse. We plead to talk to a person. The automated attendant disconnects. We are promised that we’ve been removed. They lie. Once they have us, will they ever let go? The sweatpants are nice, but the end of the lockdown has paused the ballooning waistline. New sweats are not required. Still, there are fresh messages every day — often two. Specials, sales, colors, comments on social issues, financing options and reminders of past purchases. Stop! Maybe pant-less was a better option.

It has begun. The mass emigration from college campuses to homes of origin is in full swing, friends, and I, for one, am not looking forward to its completion. For context, Doo and I have four children, three of whom are “livin’ the dream” as coeds in dorms or apartments. We’ve basically spent the past year flirting with an attractive empty nest that promises endless quiet, clean countertops and small Meijer bills. Sure, we still have our youngest around, but she’s the consummate teenager, appearing at mealtime and the occasional holiday party. Her existence here is literally only evidenced by drying leggings in the laundry room and her stupid healthy foods. I exercise for Twinkies, people, not soy-based, protein-enriched nut bread. But I digress. The point is, the domestic sanctuary I’ve recently started enjoying is about to be overrun by a bunch of loud-mouthed, newly opinionated, incessantly hungry, “independent” young adults who are thrilled to be once again on the dole. We will go from an easy, family of 2 1/2 to a terrifying mosh pit of six. Empty bedrooms will become war zones, the driveway a mine field, and the kitchen, a 24-hour mess hall barely operating because of low rations, a broken dishwasher and ever-flowing trash cans. Am I mixing my metaphors? Of course I am! The impending onslaught has me discombobulated enough to compare their homecoming to both a Metallica concert and an armed conflict. All right, all right. Before you go bashing my lack of maternal affection, know that I love my kids dearly. I simply love them more now that they live away. So, wish me luck, for it has begun. Peace out.

Art fulfills ZCD’s mission Editor, I would like to respond to Jim Holden’s April 6 letter and present a different view on his points. First, Zionsville Cultural District partners with the Town of Zionsville to add public art, such as the two traffic control boxes “Dahlia City” and “All in This Together for Social Justice,” along with “Sidewalk Poetry,” the “Lincoln Mural” and the “Walking Man” at the Zionsville Town Hall Outdoor Plaza. The ZCD states its purpose is to “promote Zionsville’s diverse art, culture, history and community assets.” Additionally, the ZCD “works
to coordinate artistic history-based and cultural experiences within the community.” The four-sided TCB artwork, “All in This Together for Social Justice,” was designed and painted by four young Zionsville school students who describe their original art as “Unity Over Division,” “All in This Together,” “Hope” and “Together.” This represents exactly what the ZCD is promoting “ ... art on this TCB created a safe space for our town’s youth to share messages of social justice and unity and for self expression.” Sandra Boone Snodgrass, Zionsville

Help mom fight osteoporosis Commentary by Dr. David Sullivan May is National Osteoporosis Month. Osteoporosis is a disease in which the bones lose more calcium than they PODIATRY absorb. Most people develop this condition after turning 50, but the disease can strike at an earlier age. Women have a higher risk for osteoporosis than men. Osteoporosis and your feet Osteoporosis makes bones weak and breakable. In fact, even stubbing your toe, or coughing too hard, could cause a fracture when you have osteoporosis. Because the feet have to handle your full body weight, foot and ankle bones are at high risk for fracture with osteoporosis. In addition to fractures, osteoporosis can cause top of foot bone pain and tenderness or red, swollen feet (which could actually be a sign of a small fracture). Podiatrists are often the ones to diagnose osteoporosis, since the disease can cause small fractures from something as simple as walking!
vitamin D, to help bones absorb calcium. • Steer clear of foods with too much sodium or phosphoric acid (sodas are a major source of this bad acid), as these items can interfere with your body’s ability to absorb calcium. • Engage in strength training. By adding resistance or weights to workouts, bone density increases, which reduces the risk for weaker bones later in life. • Quit smoking. Smoking ups the risk for bone loss and osteoporosis. • Drink alcohol in moderation (for women, this is one drink a day at most). Too much alcohol can harm your bones. • If you have a family history of bone loss, or if you’ve been through menopause, make sure bone density checks are part of your annual physical. • If you have osteoporosis, medications can slow down your bone loss. They can also help prevent fractures and may even help build new bone! Still, prevention and early detection are your best bet.

DISPATCHES New blood cancer treatment – A type of blood-cancer treatment that has shown remarkable success in clinical trials is beginning to receive FDA approvals. In CAR T-cell therapy, blood is drawn from a patient to isolate T-cells, the powerhouses of the body’s immune system. The T-cells are reprogrammed to kill tumor cells and then infused back into the patient. This appears to be most effective with certain types of blood cancers.

Look for dividend-paying stocks -- Dividend-paying stocks tend to hold up better than the overall market during volatile times and economic slowdowns. But many large-cap, blue-chip dividend payers such as McDonald’s and Procter & Gamble have already experienced big gains the past year, so they may not provide the downside protection you would expect. A better defensive strategy is to invest in dividend-paying medium-sized companies -- those with stock market values between $2 billion and $10 billion. Their businesses are mature enough to pay reliable dividends but still have the ability to grow much faster than large companies. Also, their stocks are bigger bargains. To find attractive dividend-paying, mid-cap stocks, look for companies with steady recurring revenues, little or no debt, leading market positions in their niches and strong enough cash flow to increase dividends at least 10 percent annually for the next five years.

Manchester to perform hit songs in concert with Feinstein By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Melissa Manchester has been performing for more than 50 years, so the COVID-19 pandemic halting perforCONCERT mances in March 2020 has been difficult. “I think like various people I went through stages of experiencing this tremendous shutdown of our society,” said Manchester, who is based in Los Angeles. “I was thrown into an abrupt retirement, so to speak. I had to deal with the grief. The struggle was to stay present and not deal with the past or future and just take each day at a time.” It helped that the singer/songwriter had a 24th album to work on called “Re:View,” which features fresh takes on several of her classic songs and some previously unreleased songs. The album is expected to introduce a new audience to her big hits and help regain streaming rights by re-recording her songs. “Because we are in precarious times, there was an opportunity to roll this out slowly, one a month,” Manchester said. “In order to do that effectively, we’ve come out with a video per song. We’ve been doing that since last September. We’ll continue on it until we have an album.” Manchester, 70, will make her first live performance since the pandemic hit along with Michael Feinstein at 3 and 8 p.m. May 15 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. Tickets are sold out for the evening show, but a livestream is available. Feinstein and Manchester were originally supposed to perform together in the spring of 2020 before the pandemic. “I’m very cautiously optimistic,” Manchester said. “I love my dear friend Michael Feinstein. Michael and I have performed together many times. It’s wonderful when Michael and I share the stage. We do sing some songs together and that’s very lovely.” Manchester visited the Palladium to

teach at the Songbook Academy. This will be her first concert at the Palladium. “The hall is as beautiful as can be,” she said. Manchester became the first recording artist in the history of the Academy Awards to have two nominated movie themes in a single year, “Through The Eyes Of Love” from “Ice Castles” and “I’ll Never Say Goodbye” from “The Promise,” and to perform both songs on the Oscar telecast. Nominated for a Grammy in 1980 for “Don’t Cry Out Loud,” she won the Grammy Award for best female vocalist in 1982 with “You Should Hear How She Talks About You.” Manchester also co-wrote the radio mainstays “Midnight Blue,” “Come In From The Rain” and “Whenever I Call You Friend.” “I feel very grateful that I’ve grown into these songs,” she said. “They’ve become living monologues for me, and I never get bored singing them. For the ones I’ve written, I’m amazed I knew so much because it’s such a long time ago. It’s a privilege to see how much they’ve met to the audience and they were so much the musical
landscapes of my fans. It’s very touching.” Manchester said the video for “Midnight Blue” is a “musical conversation of present me and older clips of when I was first performing it in the 1970s.” Manchester has acted at times throughout her career. In 1993-94, she acted in 10 episodes of “Blossom” as Blossom’s mother. “Acting is not something I really pursued,” she said. “I had to replace Bernadette Peters for the national tour of ’Song and Dance.’ I had done a piece of the tour on Andrew Lloyd Webber’s ‘Music of the Night.’ I could have pursued that more, but my track was really to be a concert performer and songwriter.” Manchester composed music for the animated features “The Great Mouse Detective” and “Lady And The Tramp II,” the sequel to the Disney classic. She also composed the scores for the theatrical musicals “I Sent A Letter To My Love” and “Sweet Potato Queens.” For more, visit melissamanchester.com. For tickets, visit thecenterpresents.org.

Three Carmel High School students and two Zionsville Community High School students are among 40 of the naMUSIC tion’s top high school vocalists who have been selected to participate in the 2021 Songbook Academy summer intensive, a week of personal instruction and mentoring by arts and entertainment professionals presented each year by the Great American Songbook Foundation. Nathan Koon, Jack Sullivan and Cara Nowlin are the CHS students. They are joined by Carmel resident Piper Murphy, who attends Park Tudor School. Lily Cross and Jilayne Kistner are the ZCHS students. The other Indiana finalists are Annie Flowers, Indianapolis; Jonathan Grimes, Avon; and Camden Zetty, Avon. Now in its 12th year, the Songbook Academy is the nation’s leading youth music intensive focused on timeless standards from the worlds of jazz, Broadway, Hollywood and Tin Pan Alley. Typically offered on-site
at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel, where the Songbook Foundation is headquartered, the program is again shifting to a virtual format in response to the logistical and safety issues posed by the ongoing pandemic. Still, during the week of July 17-24, the 40 finalists will receive professional vocal training and performance coaching and participate in workshops, daily social activities and educational masterclasses with a team of mentors led by five-time Grammy Award nominee and Songbook Foundation Founder Michael Feinstein. “There is no reason to expose our finalists or others to any health risk when the virtual format has already proven successful and meaningful to students across the country,” Songbook Foundation Executive Director Christopher Lewis stated. “We look forward to making a difference in the lives of these young artists in creative, safe and accessible ways that preserve the quality, the camaraderie and the personalized nature of the experience.”

Gocki’s Smokin’ BBQ, a food truck
Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: Locations change weekly What to get: Smoked brisket Price: $10 Anna’s take: Gocki’s Smokin BBQ started 10-plus years ago, when pit master Scott Wilgocki taught himself how to barbeque and began smoking meat as a hobby. Until October 2019, Wilgocki worked in the corporate world but had been told he should pursue barbecue full time for years. In fall 2019, Wilgocki followed the advice and launched Gocki’s Smokin’ BBQ, a food truck. I am a huge smoked brisket fan, and that’s what I suggest you order ($10), with a side of smoked mac and cheese ($3) and green beans ($3), cooked with bacon and onions. Wilgocki’s offerings remind me of family gatherings with delicious, home-cooked food. It brings a whole new meaning to the

term “comfort food” when you visit a food truck and order a side of green beans that smell just like the ones my grandma makes. My other favorite part about Gocki’s Smokin’ BBQ is the four homemade sauces, ranging from no heat to sriracha-level heat. Wilgocki offers pickles and jalapeños to customize orders, and I was overall very impressed with his ability to cook (smoke) up a good meal. Gocki’s Smokin’ BBQ motors around Hamilton County and surrounding areas and often sets up in neighborhoods. So, be sure to follow Gocki’s Smokin’ BBQ on Facebook.

Backyard orchestra teaches virtual students By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com When Carmel resident Li Li realized that Carmel Clay Schools students who opted for the virtual classroom option were unable to attend orchestra, she created a MUSIC solution. Li, a violist for the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, and her husband, Joel Smirnoff, who also is a musician and teaches violin at the Juilliard School in New York, decided to give the virtual students an option to practice playing their instruments and created the backyard orchestra. “Only hybrid (students) could do the orchestra at school,” Li said. “My son actually is in sixth grade right now, and this whole sixth grade year was supposed to be the first year they picked up an instrument and played in orchestra, but he’s been virtual, so he’s never had the opportunity to do that. I thought there are a lot of kids like him.” Li said her backyard is flat, and she thought she could set up chairs and teach

Nonce upon a time Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Have you ever heard or uttered a sentence and then thought, “I’ll bet no one’s ever said that before?” For instance, yesterday I was playing GRAMMAR GUY with my daughter, Maeve, who is 3 1/2. She has some stretchy, colorful toys called Monkey Noodles. Maeve has a vivid imagination, but I’ll spare the details of the game she invented only to say the game ended with me exclaiming, “We don’t put Monkey Noodles in our mouths after we bake them in our tummy ovens!” I doubt the same words had ever been put together in the same order in the same sentence before, and I doubt they’ll ever need to be uttered again. I think about these kinds of sentences all the time. Do you know that there’s a version of this “once-in-a-lifetime” occasion for standalone words? They’re called “nonce” words, or “occasionalisms.” Nonce words are born when one word gets invented and subsequently utilized one time for one occurrence in one work of writing. These a la carte words are served up once
and then they’re done forever. The word “nonce” means “for the once,” or “for one purpose.” Yes, back in the day, regular people knew what “nonce” meant. James Murray, editor of the 1884 “New English Dictionary on Historical Principles” (which, in later editions, changed its title to the Oxford English Dictionary), coined the term “nonce-word.” Lewis Carroll’s 1871 poem “Jabberwocky” includes several nonsensical words that — up until that point — hadn’t been invented, let alone used. The poem introduces us to one-time terms including “brillig,” “frabjous,” “frumious” and “manxome.” While I wasn’t there when Carroll penned this work, which would later be included in “Through the Looking-Glass,” I doubt he intended these nonce words to exist outside the universe of Alice’s Wonderland.

Khan El-Khalili outdoor market in Cairo, Egypt. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Exploring the Khan El-Khalili souk Commentary by Don Knebel A visit to a Middle Eastern outdoor market, called either a “souk” or “souq” (from Arabic) or a “bazaar” (from TRAVEL Persian), provides a sensory experience like few others. The oldest and one of the most famous souks is Cairo’s sprawling Khan El-Khalili, at the center of Islamic Cairo, between Al-Muizz Street and the important El-Hussein Mosque. Khan El-Khalili is named for Jaharkas el-Khalili, a government official who established an open-air market in the area in the late 14th century. By the 15th century, the market had become an important center of international trade, including trade in slaves. Today, Khan El-Khalili is the most visited site in Egypt, attracting both locals and visitors from around the world. The hundreds of stores and workshops attack all the senses, sometimes simultaneously. Bright colors can be found in the many shops selling clothing, including shops displaying lingerie, an unusual site in a predominantly Muslim nation. The aromas of freshly baked bread, burning incense
For This Months Rising Professionals Meeting
and tobacco smoke from hookahs are everywhere. Strong Turkish coffee and tasty Middle Eastern food are available in the many cafes and coffee shops, including the famous El Fishawi’s, established in 1773. The sense of touch can be threatened by the crowds of people walking along the narrow streets and rewarded by the feel of luxurious handmade rugs. Artisans, working on leather and precious metals, fill the air with sounds of hammers, and shop owners create a cacophony of many languages as they seek to entice foreign visitors to enter their tiny stores, where they may be more easily coaxed into buying something. On Fridays at about noon, sounds from the nearby El-Hussein Mosque call the faithful to prayers. When you visit Cairo, make sure you spend a few hours in Khan El-Khalili. And make sure to take your haggling skills.

DISPATCHES Driving on empty — Consistently driving your car with low fuel can cause damage to the fuel pump. The electric fuel pump is actually cooled by the gas in the tank. If you frequently drive around with low fuel, the pump may not be cooled enough and may fail. An occasional low gas warning won’t hurt anything. Just be sure not to be a repeat offender or you may pay at the repair shop later. Source: FamilyHandyman.com Don’t charge phones in rental cars — Whether you booked a rental car for your vacation or are hailing a Lyft, it’s tempting to plug your dying phone into your rideshare or rental car’s USB port to charge. But charging your smartphone in a car that isn’t your own could be disastrous. Rental cars, like airports and train stations, are some of the places you should never charge your phone. You should never plug your phone into a public USB port, and that includes rental cars and essentially any cars that you don’t own. “The USB cable and outlet are designed not only to charge the connected device, but they are also designed for two-way data transfer,” John Burkhauser, an auto repair specialist, tells Reader’s Digest. “When the phone is plugged into the active outlet, usually located at the front of the vehicle, both the phone and the vehicle systems will talk to each other.” Translation? Using
that USB port can transfer information from your phone to the car, and the car can store private information from your phone.
