Salem UMC celebrates 180 years
By Tim Ottinger Chairman for Salem Administrative Board
In 1834 in southwest Eagle Township, a group of people regularly met in their homes for spiritual devotions to form one of the oldest history religious congregations in the state. Salem United Methodist Church will celebrate its 180-year history this year on Sept. 21. Services, or “classes” were held until 1849 when the first building for Salem United Methodist Church was built on what used to be Salem Road, then Kissel Road and now S 775 East. An old wagon track, now a depression which is all that is left of the early Salem Road, can still be seen in Salem Cemetery. Classes of these times played active roles in the beginning of early churches. The classes were visited every month or two by Circuit Riders. The Circuit Riders were ordained Methodist Episcopal clergymen. Being ordained he alone could perform such sacraments as communion, marriage and baptism. He was usually young, literally living out of his saddlebags, traveling by horseback from meeting to meeting and never without his Bible or “Book of Discipline.” Circuit Riders generally made their circuit every four weeks. The land on which the first Salem Church was to be built was acquired in 1834 from the government by George Wood, one of the pioneer members of

this congregation. Andrew Jackson was president at the time. George Wood and his wife Elizabeth Wood, deeded the land for the church in 1849 to William Lemon, William Johnson and Jonathan T. Hall who were named as the first trustees. The first church of which there is definite record was built in 1849, fifteen years after the organization of the “classes.” This church was placed on the shoulder of a knoll that dipped down to the banks of Fishback Creek. There is an interesting record of the donations of time and labor made toward the building. From it we find that one day’s work rated from $0.25 to $0.50, depending on whether the worker was a man or a boy. Samuel Cooper was the builder, and Hiram Harmon put on the rafters. Hiram was paid $1. There is no record that Mr. Cooper was paid, or if so, how much. The original building was 30 feet wide, 36 feet long, and 12 feet high. Since George Wood had migrated to Indiana from Salem, N.C., and then to Salem, Ind., in Washington County, before residing in Boone County, he requested that this church be named Salem. His request was granted with the original church name recorded as Salem Methodist Episcopal Church. The first Salem Church building lasted almost half a century. This original 1849 structure was sold to Larkin Beck for $30. To a complete history of the church, visit www. currentzionsville.com

TPCA students return from fall retreat
news@currentzionsville.com
Junior high and high school students from Traders Point Christian Academy spent time connecting with each other and having fun at education a fall retreat on the campus of Spring Hill Camp near Seymour They played group cooperation games, water games, challenged themselves on ropes and climbing courses, and zip-lined through the trees – along with meaningful times of worship, bible study and sharing in the evenings. “Our fall retreat at Spring Hill was packed with teaching, bonding and unique opportunities for spiritual growth,” said TPCA Head of School Ron Evans. “Throughout each adventure, students were challenged to focus on this year’s school theme, ‘Love One Another,’ and its purpose for this year. The experience was also designed to create great bonds of friendship and a sense of family, fostering a strong beginning to the school year.” “One of the greatest parts of the retreat was seeing the returning students taking the initiative to welcome new students and help them feel a part of the TPCA family,” said Secondary Principle Jason Klingerman.

Homeowners are facing radical increases in property taxes as a result of reassigned classifications for residential and agricultural acreage by the Boone County asgovernment sessor’s office. “This is an area where the housing market has been pretty much flat for years,” said resident Greg Allen, who asserted the assessment of his property’s value was wildly inaccurate. “I was told that the only way I was going to get them lowered was if I could prove the difference.” Stating that his improvements taxes had doubled, Allen was only able to decrease his rates back to a level comparable to the previous payment after presenting an appraisal of the land from two years ago. His neighbors received the same deal, but only upon personally providing similar documentation of their own. Zionsville resident Pam Faerber and her husband own well over a dozen acres in addition to the plot their house is located on, many of which are wooded or used for storm drainage, that

were relabeled by the Boone County assessor’s office as excess residential land, dramatically raising the cost. “That evaluation got my attention loud and clear. I got my hands on everything I could about it,” Faerber said. “We realized this is what’s happened in Castleton, Fishers, and Carmel as well.” In order to begin addressing the issue as a community, Faerber held a meeting in her home for other residents in the area who were facing fiscal hikes. The 65 attending homeowners reached a decision to seek increased clarity and structure in the laws regarding the power of the assessor’s office. “I think we need to understand, if property’s been assessed historically a certain way, why it would rise unless the homeowner had made drastic changes,” Zionsville town council president Jeff Papa, who was present at the meeting, said. “We feel very strongly that when land is purchased as agriculturally taxed land it should stay at that level, unless it’s been developed,” Faerber said. “The bottom line is that the law doesn’t seem to be clear. It’s just not equitable.”

A ZCS tradition to get kids active By James Feichtner • news@currentzionsville.com This September will mark the fifth anniversary of Zionsville elementary schools’ Jog-A-Thon fundraiser. This Parent Teacher Organization event is Sept. 17 during normal school hours. The event was originally proposed to Eacover story gle Elementary by former California resident and Eagle parent Martine Ouellette; since then the event has taken off, with more and more students getting excited to participate. Starting at Eagle Elementary, it now continues its tradition at all Zionsville elementary schools. The fundraiser is one day when each of the schools allows all of their students 60 minutes of jog time. Event chairwoman Natalie Kruger attributes the fundraiser’s success to the healthy initiative of the event, as well as the beneficial funds raised for the schools. “It’s a healthy event. It’s an active event. It gets the kids going and getting them outside. And the monies that are actually raised are used incredibly efficiently for enhancing their educational experience. Our PTOs, and Zionsville’s community school system in general, are so involved with ensuring that the kids get exemplary services. There’s nothing frivolous about it. Every penny spent is used to enhance the educational experience for the students of the school,” she said. The event is broken up into grade groups, such as kindergarteners through second graders. While the event is mainly intended for students, teachers and staff are also allowed to participate. “At Eagle, one of the fun things for our kids is our principal Christine Squier is the ‘pace car.’ She starts the first lap for each run and the kids absolutely love that,” Kruger said. Parents are allowed to join, but do not participate in any jogging. Instead, they monitor the children’s progress. “The parents, while they’re not running or jogging, are actually tracking the laps of the kids by marking their T-shirts every time they go around the track. That way the kids know at the end a pretty good accurate count of how many laps they ran that day,” Kruger said.
Sydney Kruger, Zachary Schwarz and teacher Jonathon LaRosa get started in the Jog-A-Thon during last year’s event.
While student progress is tracked, the event it not meant to be a competition. The goal of the jog is for the students to have a fun and healthy activity to participate in. “It’s definitely more of a personal motivation. We definitely try not to make it competitive in terms of number of laps. But there is an element of competition that we do on a group level. We do a class cheer, so every classroom creates a cheer at Eagle elementary and they compete on their class cheer,” Kruger said. Safety plays an important role in the fundraiser. While parents and staff are permitted at the event, measures are taken to ensure the students are safe and secure. “Child safety is absolutely first. Even every parent who is on the premises has to have a full background check. It just comes down to a safety issue of making sure that we have full knowledge of every adult who is on the grounds with the children,” Kruger said.
The PTO has played an important role in helping the event prosper, but a lot of the support comes from the local community and event sponsors. “We have an unbelievably supportive community. The community is so behind our kids in our school system. It’s absolutely remarkable. I’ve never seen anything like it in any other community. It’s really impressive and heartwarming how much the community likes to participate in a fundraiser for our elementary school kids. It’s really neat,” Kruger said. With the event being so efficacious, Kruger believes the Jog-AThon will continue to prosper in the coming years. “I definitely think it’ll continue to be a tradition for our schools. I think it will get more complicated, yet more fun the more we grow. We’re very lucky to be a part of a community that is growing in such a positive manner,” she said.

Ode to the omelet
FROM THE BACKSHOP
Commentary by Ward Degler
Apprenticeship is taking flight
Opportunity comes in all forms and fashions, we believe. When serial entrepreneur Ron Brumbarger, he of Bitwise Solutions fame, began Apprentice University, we were all ears and major proponents of the effort. In short, AU takes the “educational industrial complex,” against which we have railed multiple times, and sends it straight down the garbage disposal. So Brumbarger got the bright idea to deploy apprentices, for pay, at area businesses, ones where they could learn up close and determine whether a particular profession is right for them. Here at Current Publishing, we decided to become more involved, and rather than simply be a supporter of AU we decided we should have our own apprentice. Enter Melissa Hicks, an AU enrollee that was sent our way without a lick of journalism experience. She had writing samples, but they were more along the lines of term papers rather than news or feature stories. So, this was going to be a ground-up initiative, and we were eager to take her on. Paying forward, we call it. People helped us once upon a time, so why not do the same? Easy answer. Done. Melissa, a Sheridan resident and a homeschooled, enthusiastic young woman, began her apprenticeship with Current a couple weeks ago. We told her she would start slowly, and we would communicate regularly in an attempt to green her as much as we’re able to in the five-month run of the apprenticeship. As a matter of fact, in our Community section today, you’ll see the initial fruits of her labor, “5 Minutes With …”. It’s not rocket science, and we told her that, but it is a perfect way for a young reporter to get out of the office, make connections and learn how to question an interview subject so that person may be “introduced” to his or her fellow readers. So far, so good. Her intellect and drive will serve her well here and well beyond the apprenticeship. It’s going to be fun helping her develop in this industry. Wish her luck.

Manners expose character Commentary by Terry Anker Crass, boorish behavior that was once the hallmark of the uneducated and uninitiated has found its way into the halls of wealth and power. To be fair, it was probably always there to some extent, but many find that their privilege releases them from the obligation of courtesy rather than holds them to it. High-minded salons have be replaced by stinking sit-ins where discourse is replaced by looting and property offence. Well-conceived and drafted editorials become profane and poorly researched blog posts which spew diatribe unworthy of the public space. Fine tailoring and shoe polish are far rarer in an airplane cabin than cargo shorts and toe fungus displayed via flip flop. While the current ethos of American culture might cry out in opposition, some of us are willing to say that our nation has become too comfortable. We eat our food from paper bags while driving on the street. We talk to each other like sailors on shore leave. And, we share family secrets with strangers as we shout into our phones in the line at
Starbucks. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is quoted as saying, “Good manners can open doors that the best education cannot.” He may have a point. Simple polite, direct conversation carries one through all manner of hardship. Learning that our own ease is not the ultimate objective helps us develop self-restraint and patience. Polite interactions are not a silly veneer wrapping our society as a relic of the Victorian era. Manners expose and develop a person’s character. Please. Thank you. You are welcome. A firm and sincere handshake. Mr. and Mrs., it is good to meet you. Somehow, we’ve confused being rude for forthright, sloppy for comfortable, and dismissive for discerning. Polite company matters, and our move from it benefits no one. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
– Leo Tolstoy
Every Sunday after church I make omelets for brunch. Ham, mushrooms and shredded cheese. My wife likes them plain talk and so do I. Add-ons to the meal include fresh fruit, cheese or sometimes pastry. But, why omelets? I wondered. We didn’t have omelets when I was a kid. Even so, the mere thought of an omelet is pleasant, cozy even. Like curling up with a good book. The answer harks back nearly six decades to a Sunday morning in May when I found myself in St. Louis after an all-night bus ride from Fort Smith, Arkansas where I had just finished army basic training. I had 10 days leave before reporting for my next duty, and I was eager to get home and slip into some civvies for a few days. As I rubbed sleep from my eyes and lumbered down from the bus, I realized I was hungry. The army had provided a box lunch when they dropped me at the bus depot. But that was hours ago. The lunch counter at the bus depot was not yet open, and since I had two hours before my next bus, I decided to explore the streets to see what might be available. The problem was, it was Sunday and very early. Downtown St. Louis was deserted like a scene from a science fiction movie. I watched a paper cup tumble into the street with the wind and sit there undisturbed. There wasn’t a car to be seen, and the only sound was the low rumble of idling busses back at the depot. It was eerie. After walking past dozens of dark buildings, I was ready to go back to the bus depot. Maybe the lunch counter would be working. That was when I spotted a diner on the other side of the street. The building had probably been built soon after the end of the war – concrete block with fading paint. Steamed up windows and a flickering neon sign announced it was a diner, and open for business. Inside, I sat on a stool at the counter and watched the guy at the grill. He cracked eggs into a bowl, whipped them with a whisk and poured them into a pan. Moments later he gave the pan a swish to the side and the eggs magically flipped over. A minute later he sprinkled in chopped ham, mushrooms, green onion and cheese, folded the egg in half, swished again and slid his creation onto a plate. It was poetry in motion. I ordered an omelet. It was my first. The rest, as they say, is history. Except, I never learned how to swish the pan and turn the omelet. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

Last week I left you with a cliffhanger … my youngest sister, in labor with her first baby, had just chucked a Dammit Doll at the flat screen. Here’s the drama-infused concluhumor sion, for your reading pleasure. After the doll “incident,” we headed to the hospital in downtown Chicago. She was triaged and scheduled for admittance. An hour later, still waiting for her to be moved to the labor/delivery floor, my mom and I received word that the doctors had changed shifts and the new one had overruled the admittance. Prego was headed back home. Of course Doctor No. 2 soon acquired a very unflattering nickname which I cannot repeat here, but which did make us all feel a tad bit better. After a good cry and a few choice words, Prego decided she was starving, so we drove to the nearest diner. Sometimes fries and a milkshake are the only answers. Back home, we all tried to rest, but because I was relegated to the couch in the sunny living room, sleep eluded me. I bounced back and forth between episodes of “Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders: Making the Team” and “Jerry Maguire.” Heaven! At one, another sister arrived, and together we forced Prego out of the house. We spent the afternoon hoofing around her neighborhood, hitting antique shops, toy stores and a very glamorous grocery store with two martini bars and a
jazz quartet right there in produce. By dinner, Prego wasn’t smiling anymore. The tears re-appeared at nine, as pain and fatigue joined forces to smite Prego’s attitude. She felt certain she should return to the hospital but was terrified they would send her home again. My other sister, a litigator by day, made it quite clear that as long as she was around, there’d be no such nonsense. Not on her watch! Are we clear? ARE WE CLEAR!? So at midnight, with Prego at six centimeters and an epidural SWAT team on standby, we excitedly awaited the birth. By 2:30 a.m. however, there’d been no progress, and No. 2 banned us from the room. Party over. The daddy-to-be texted a short while later that the baby was in distress and that Doctor No. 2, whose nickname we’d quietly repealed, had ordered an emergency C-section. No worries! This baby story has a happy ending. My sister and new nephew are doing great, and the Dammit Doll is resting easy knowing no further abuse will come to her. At least not until this parenting gig gets real, that is! Peace out.

Chita Rivera makes a comeback
By Jay Harvey • editorial@youarecurrent.com
She first captured America’s attention by creating the peppery Anita – with swirling skirts and attitude to spare – in “West Side Story” more than a half-century ago. Chita Rivera has epitomized pitheatre zazz ever since, and has a couple of Tony Awards as well as the 2009 Presidential Medal of Freedom to confirm her special qualities as an entertainer. Now Actors Theatre of Indiana is bringing her to Carmel in the one-woman show that debuted in New York to celebrate her 80th birthday last year. Her current national tour of “Chita: A National Celebration” reacquaints audiences with the stamp she put on such shows as “West Side Story,” “Sweet Charity,” “Chicago,” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” Born in Washington, D.C., to a musician and a government worker, Rivera started moving toward her triple-threat stature as an entertainer as an 11-year-old ballet student. Her success led to a scholarship to the American School of Ballet, headed by George Balanchine. Rivera’s student move to New York positioned her to win the audition for the role of the heroine Maria’s best friend, Anita. They are the principal female figures on the Puerto Rican side of the show’s tragic rivalry between two street gangs. The conflict and its outcome are based loosely on Shakespeare’s romantic tragedy, “Romeo and Juliet.” Anita’s show-stopping number celebrating her community’s advantages in its new homeland, “America,” was the vehicle for establishing the young star’s rise. She repeated her 1957 triumph in the role in London, then went on to be fea-

tured in a host of other Broadway productions. Two of them – “The Rink” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman” – brought her two Tony Awards. Among Rivera’s recent productions on Broadway are “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” and “The Dancer’s Life” – the latter a Terence McNally work written in her honor. This summer she recreated for the Williamstown Theatre Festival her starring role in “The Visit,” a much-reworked Kander-and-Ebb musical version of Friedrich Durrenmatt’s play about revenge and greed in a small European town. She was cited for her career achievements
with a Kennedy Center Honor in 2002, becoming the first female Hispanic recipient of the award. Among Rivera’s accomplishments away from the stage was running a New York City restaurant named for her between 1988 and 1994.

Celebrating 100 years with Booth Tarkington By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com This year Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre is celebrating its 100th season of professionally designed, directed and choreographed theatre in central Indiana. To mark this historic year, Civic will be theatre staging five Broadway classics throughout the 2014-15 Mainstage season. “When selecting the shows for this season, we kept several things in mind,” said Civic’s artistic director, Bob Sorbera. “We wanted a lineup of shows that are stage worthy and have been critically acclaimed.” With this objective in mind, a variety of dramas, comedies, musicals and family-friendly productions will be brought to the stage during the 2014-15 centennial season including “Swing!,” “Golda’s Balcony,” “The Wizard of Oz,” “Moon Over Buffalo” and “Monty Python’s Spamalot.” “There is something for everybody,” Sorbera said. “‘Swing!’ is lots of fun and high energy, ‘Golda’s Balcony’ is an incredible one-woman show,
and some people say ‘Spamalot’ is the funniest musical they’ve ever seen!” In addition to staging Broadway-caliber productions throughout the last 100 years, Civic has given central Indiana actors an opportunity to refine and display their skills while also introducing theatre to children through its educational programs. “Theatre isn’t like fine art where you just need a paint brush or canvas,” Sorbera said. “You also need lights, sets, curtains and a stage. For 100 years, Civic has been able to provide all of this to central Indiana performers.” Civic’s Mainstage season will open with the high-energy musical “Swing!” on Sept. 5. The show will run until Sept. 20. Showtimes are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 20 at 5 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit CivicTheatre.org or call 843-3800.

Monsters: No Mexican masterpiece Commentary by Collin Stroup I decided to take a bit of a break from the theater this week and take a chance on a Netflix movie I’d been meaning to watch. movies The film ‘Monsters’ had been recommended to me on several movie lists and by friends so this seemed a good of a time as any to check it out and share my thoughts. ‘Monsters’ takes place in the not too distant future in Mexico. Six years prior to the start of the film, a space probe carrying samples from another planet crashed down in Mexico where alien life forms began to develop. The story follows Andrew, a photojournalist and Sam, the daughter of Andrew’s boss as they attempt to get back to the U.S. The movie is reminiscent of a classic sci-fi film in that it’s not action-based, but more of a slow burning social commentary. It offered up a creative look at how humanity deals with this sort of situation and it’s easy to see why Gareth Edwards was approached after this to helm the recent Godzilla movie. The making of the movie is pretty remarkable as well since it was basically just the director and actors going and shooting around Mexico and asking locals to be in the film. It hits a couple slow spots at the beginning and late into the movie that may lose some peoples’ interests, but I felt that the worldbuilding and character development were interesting enough to keep going. I think this movie would have worked better as a short film, but
Directed by: Gareth Edwards Starring: Scoot McNairy, Whitney Able
I appreciated its ambition and was glad I stuck with it. ‘Monsters’ wasn’t a masterpiece, but was certainly an interesting and thoughtful change of pace to the sci-fi films we see in films today.

Give Summer Pomodoro a try
This recipe comes from a magical place called Sedona in Arizona. My husband and I discovered that Sedona doesn’t only have stunning landscape full of five-star hikes, but in addition, it’s a place that celebrates food! The cherry tomato varieties are an indulgence in the summer, like sweet garden candy! There’s no comparison between beautiful vine-ripened tomatoes from your garden and the ones that have been picked green and artificially ripened. The possibilities on how to cook tomatoes are endless but, this wonderful, simple and full of flavor Summer Pomodoro dish is also great for those hectic week days. You can literally have this meal on your table in fewer than 20 minutes! SUMMER POMODORO Prep: 15 minutes / Serves: 4 to 6 Ingredients: 1 bag spaghetti or linguini 16oz, 4 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, 6 garlic cloves, minced, pinch of red pepper flakes, fine sea salt and black pepper as needed, 1 quart ripe cherry or grape tomatoes, halved, 1/4 cup pine nuts, roasted (optional), handful of coarsely basil, 2 tablespoons of butter, grated parmesan cheese Directions: Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup pasta cook-

ing water. Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium-heat, then add the oil until it coats the pan when swirled. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook until they turn golden. Add garlic, flakes, salt, pepper and pine nuts. Add pasta to pan with tomatoes mixture; if the mixture looks dry add a little pasta cooking water - a few tablespoons at a time. Add butter and basil.

(Here are the first five commandments; the rest will follow next week.) I. Thou shall plan ahead Nothing is worse than a hap hazard tailgate party. You need to coordinate with others to settle on menu items and the assignment thereof. It’s also important to decide who brings what equipment. A four-person tailgate doesn’t need two heavy-duty grills and eight folding chairs. II. Thou shall arrive early and not rush Tailgating is a relaxed time for friends to eat, drink and socialize. You are back on campus or at a professional stadium for the day. Enjoy yourself like a grown-up. Don’t cause stress by having to rush in the setting-up of your equipment. Even more important (for food safety, see Commandment 9), don’t rush your food preparation. III. Thou shall not diet Nothing ruins the fun at a tailgate party more than a vocal self-appointed judge of cholesterol, calories, triglycerides and anything else that can be brought to attention as you take the second bite of some scrumptious food. Sure we all have to watch what we eat, but many medical people say that you can eat most anything in moderation. So, even the most sinful deserts are allowed if one doesn’t

Getting ahead of macular degeneration Q: My mother and aunt both have macular degeneration. Am I likely to get it also? - Jan S., Noblesville A: Age-related macular degeneration is one of the leading causes of vision loss and blindness in the adult population. It has two forms: Dry, or atrophic (90 percent), and wet, or exudative (10 percent). Heredity is one risk factor, but others include age, gender, ethnicity, UV exposure, smoking, diet and nutrition and heart disease. Obviously, some of these factors we can control while some we cannot. I do recommend patients eat a diet that includes lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, especially dark-green leafy ones like spinach, as well as take a daily vitamin/mineral supplement that includes lutein. It is also advisable to not smoke and to avoid secondhand smoke. One very important thing to note: I have several patients with mild-to-moderate dry macular degeneration who have no symptoms. They are correctable to 20/20 vision and would never know they have the disease if not for a comprehensive eye examination. Once signs are
detected in the eye, we are now able to run DNA testing to establish how much and what type of genetic link a patient may have to the disease. Regular eye health exams are important since early detection for AMD allows for more effective treatment options and a better prognosis. Tammy Wittmann, D.O., is the owner of Wittmann 20/20 Family Eye Care. For more information, call 843-2020 or e-mail twittmann@ wittmann2020.com.

Yoga pose: Don’t be a square Commentary by Sally Brown Bassett The only thing consistent in all the different types of yoga you might hear about is the triangle pose. It is a signature on the mat pose if there ever was one. Therapeutically, it is good for strengthening the core and legs. It also improves the flexibility of the spine and alleviates backache. Triangle, or Trikonasana in Sanskrit, can be done in your office, up against the wall, or on the beach. Start by taking your feet as wide as possible the length of your mat. Turn your right toe out 90 degrees and turn your left foot in about 45 degrees. Your right heel should be in alignment with the arch of your left foot. Lift your arms up and extend them out directly from your shoulders, arms parallel to the floor and palms facing the floor. Take a deep breath and drop your shoulders away from your ears. Extend your torso to the right directly over the right leg. Imagine your body is between two panes of glass. Bend from the hip, not the waist. Slide the back of the right hand down the inner right shin until you feel resistance, then stop and hold. Do not hold on to your ankle, doing that deactivates your abdominal muscles, causing you to sink your right shoulder into your right ear. If you want to go deeper, you can turn your head and gaze at your left hand. The goal is to feel long and extended and still be able to breathe.
Bassett does a triangle pose on the beach. (Submitted photo)
The rigors of everyday life have a tendency to weaken our backs. Because the triangle pose is also a gentle twist, it helps our newly strong back stay supple and flexible. The twisting action also acts as a massage to our internal organs, helping them to remain in top function and maintain their ability to rid toxins. We could all use a little help with detox in this world of chemicals and fumes. Until next time… Namaste! Dr. Sally Brown Bassett is a yogi, social entrepreneur and world traveler. She is president of Peace through Yoga Foundation, where she leads trips to Costa Rica and visits their International Elementary School for Girls. Sally teaches at the Peace through Yoga studios as well as Butler University. She can be reached at sally.bassett@ peacethroughyoga.com

Water, please! Commentary by Adam Timm Water is a vital nutrient to the human body. We can only survive a couple days without water and proper hydration is fitness important to our daily health and performance. Our body carries out many functions that are greatly impacted if we are not properly hydrated. We need proper hydration for our kidneys to perform effectively. The kidneys function to filter our blood and keep our electrolytes balanced. They also work to eliminate waste and extra fluid in the body. Another organ, the skin, is the first line of defense against unwanted substances entering our body and relies heavily on fluid intake to effectively provide this barrier. The skin can become dry, wrinkled, or cracked when lack of hydration occurs. Drinking an adequate amount of water helps to keep our body functioning properly for daily activities. Athletic performance also requires attention to fluid intake. During exercise the body sweats to regulate body temperature. Fluid loss during sweating can lead to dehydration if proper fluid intake has not occurred. Loss of fluid and dehydration also leads to decreased blood volume and an increase in heart rate to compensate for the lower blood volume. Therefore, it is very important to drink water and possibly sports drinks before, during, and after exercise to avoid the negative effects of dehydration.
“The Clear Choice in PhysicianStaying hydrated is only one step to staying healthy (Submitted photo)
Drinking filtered water can help to clean the body and alleviate many health problems. Hydration is an area of focus at Concept 7 Fitness as part of our 7 Lifestyle Principles. Water is inexpensive and accessible almost anywhere. Tips for better hydration. • Carry a good water bottle with you at all times. • Drink 12 ounces of water immediately upon waking. • Drink about 64 ounces of water throughout the day (more if exercising or in hot weather). Improve your health today by simply drinking an adequate amount of water throughout the day. Establishing this habit will have lasting impact on how you look, feel, and perform.

DESIGN & REMODELING SEMINAR
Building on quality By James Feichtner • news@currentzionsville.com A new contracting firm has made its home here in Zionsville. Situated at 95 S. First St. next to Noah Grants, Reynolds Connow open struction Group is a full service general contracting firm. “Value is the clients’ ultimate goal; integrity and an unwavering dedication to professionalism is ours,” owner and operator JR Reynolds said. With over 30 years of experience under his belt, JR and his wife Barbie have a superior understanding of the construction business. Their expertise ranges from basic remodeling to ground up projects. “We do commercial and residential. Everything from ground up on the commercial side, ground up on the residential side, and tinted finish remodeling,” JR said. After working for various companies, JR decided to start up his own contracting firm. “When you work for other people you see how they do business. You agree with some things and you don’t agree with some things,” JR said. But the real highlight of the couples’ business that separates them from the competition is
their determination to deliver a service that exceeds its client’s expectancies. JR believes that he’s not just selling a service; he’s putting his name on the line. “In the construction business there’s a construction company probably on every corner. The biggest thing I find in the business is that reputation is everything. That’s all I have to sell is my reputation.

If you are a disciple of “active management” in the investment world, then you are a strong befinance liever in the notion that gifted and talented fund managers can identify stocks that will rise in price and turn away from those that will decline in value. In theory, they can identify – before anyone else and before any market decline – when it’s the best time to get in and out of the market. Ergo, their mission is to “beat the market.” Their expertise, skills, and goal to outperform is used to justify their (usual) higher costs and turnover (thus potentially higher tax consequences) as compared to traditional “indexing” or other, more evidence-based investment philosophies. The data, however, speaks otherwise. Standard & Poor’s released its year-end 2013 “S&P Indices Versus Active Funds Scorecard” that compares the performance of actively managed mutual funds to their S&P benchmark indices. For the five years that ended on Dec. 31, 73 percent of large-cap domestic funds, 78 percent midcap funds, 67 percent, and 80 percent REIT funds underperformed their benchmark
indices. Almost two thirds actively managed domestic stock mutual funds underperformed the S&P 1500 total stock market over the past five years. (For the complete study, check out my tweeted link @acmejla). I prefer to call “actively managed” the conventional approach to investing. There are four themes that I derive from conventional investing. First, it relies on predictions about an individual stock or investment and how it is going to perform in the future. Not only that, but you’re in essence betting that you know more about where that stock is going to go than the collective knowledge of the entire market! Think about it: if you were right, and everyone else agreed with you, then the price would already be what you thought it was going to be. Simple economics.

ustin & Crystal were tired of living in an apartment. After 12 months of diligent work to get their financial life in order, Justin graduated from college, got a great job, Crystal announced her pregnancy with their first, and the house hunt was on! They vacillated between East & West Avon, trying to decide whether to be close to interstate access for the commute or close to family in Danville. They trudged through knee-deep snow, below zero temperatures & pitch black darkness with Jennifer earlier in the year, squeezing in a round of showings between blizzards when they could. Inconvenient weather is irrelevant to a buyer on the hunt for the perfect home! When they found “THE ONE,” they were just lukewarm…until the first price reduction. Then they were hot to trot! An offer was presented, a deal was struck, and the closing date set. Funny how only then did the snow melt, the temperatures improve, & the trees bloom. With the approach of spring, Justin & Crystal were ready to welcome their own little bundle home to their new nest!

Picture of Gandhi at Ahmedabad’s Sabarmati Ashram. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Ahmedabad’s home of history Commentary by Don Knebel
Ahmedabad is the world’s third-fastest growing city. Despite needing residential land, the Indian government has reserved travel prime real estate along Ahmedabad’s central river as a memorial to the man Indians revere as the Father of the Nation. In 1915, after working 21 years in South Africa as a lawyer, Mohandas Gandhi came to Ahmedabad to employ his ideas of non-violent resistance in support of Indian independence. In 1917, he acquired 36 acres of wasteland along the west bank of the Sabarmati River and built an “ashram” on the previously snake-infested site. He and his followers lived together at the ashram seeking truth while practicing Gandhi’s ideals of discipline, chastity, religious tolerance, self-reliance and non-violence. One of Gandhi’s objectives was demonstrating that Indian people did not need to rely on the British, so he and his followers made their own cloth and grew their own food. In 1930, while living at the ashram, Gandhi organized a 241-mile march to the sea protesting the British salt tax. The event eventually led to the arrest of 60,000 people and galvanized the Indian public in support of independence. After the march, the British government
seized Gandhi’s ashram. India received its independence in August 1947. Five months later, before Gandhi could return to the ashram, he was assassinated by a Hindu nationalist who thought his teachings were too tolerant of Muslims. The government now maintains the tranquil, tree-filled grounds of the “Sabarmati Ashram” as a shrine to the person Indians now call “Mahatma,” the Great Soul. Some of Gandhi’s simple personal possessions are exhibited in the small house where he lived for 12 years with his wife, Kasturba. A museum houses his letters, writings and pictures and displays some of his most famous teachings, including, “If blood be shed, let it be our own” and “Forsake not truth, even unto death.” The museum also displays the folding spinning wheel that Gandhi encouraged Indians to use to reduce their dependence on British imports. The Sabarmati Ashram is Ahmedabad’s most popular destination. For admirers of Gandhi’s philosophy of tolerance and non-violence, it should be part of any trip to India.

Local poets named among the best Commentary by Donna Monday Sara Gelston and Max Somers met in 2009 when they were two of only three poets accepted into the University of Illinois Masters in Fine Arts in Poetry program. as i remember They now sport MFAs, and each has been named one of the Best New Poets in the U.S. and Canada by the Best New Poets series. Each year the publication publishes only 50 poems out of thousands considered. Max was among the 50 poets featured in 2013 for his poem, “The Narrative Poem.” Sara’s poem, “Orbiter,” will appear shortly in the 2014 edition. Max grew up in the Village. “Mostly on Pine and Maple Streets,” he said. He and Sara now live in the Carmel home of Max’s dad, Zionsville businessman, Craig Somers. In grad school both Max and Sara taught undergrad classes in everything from poetry to business writing. “It was great,” said Max, “to sit around a table arguing about poetry and get paid for it.” A poet myself, I found it fun to sit and discuss poetry with the two of them. I told them I got the poetry bug growing up in Greenfield, the home of James Whitcomb Riley. I thought the road to fame and fortune was paved with poetry. Max’s story was more interesting than that. He says his dad was “always a fan of the beats.” “In fact,” Max said, “I grew up with a huge por-

Understanding onyx
29
Shop Indy Kids Sale at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds in Noblesville!
Commentary by Susan Schubes
Sept. 11 - 13
A rather plentiful form of the mineral chalcedony, onyx is primarily used today as a decorative stone. gems Substantial onyx deposits are found in Mexico, south Texas, and Pakistan. Onyx is soft, semi-translucent and porous, usually taking its layered coloring of black, white, brown, orange-red, and grey from surrounding minerals. Since it’s porous, onyx is also frequently dyed in acid/sugar solutions into colors not found in nature (think of older Mexican jewelry with carved gems of bright red, green or blue). Perhaps the most beautiful onyx available today is from remote locations in Pakistan. Stained by iron deposits, this onyx is colored with tawny swirls of chocolate, tan, rusty orange, cream and white. The rough material is formed into spheres, obelisks, carvings, paperweights, boxes and inlay, with surfaces acid polished to a soft sheen. Due to the substantial Pakistani deposit, fairly large pieces can be mined for manufacturing. Once invited to a dealer’s wholesale warehouse, I saw jars so tall that I could not reach to touch the lips of the vases. As onyx is dense and heavy for its size, shipping on such enormous pieces must have been murderous. As with all gemstone forms, onyx has its share of myths and legends. It is considered a strength-giving stone, beneficial for mental, physical and emotional stress. It brings balance

to mind and body, and as a strengthening stone brings greater self-confidence and energy. On the minus side, it was once believed that onyx cooled affections, caused discord and separated lovers. A word about onyx care: Onyx bead necklaces should be treated as you would pearls -- no contact with hair spray or perfume, as these will dull the surface. Dyed black onyx, particularly in rings, becomes brittle with age and cracks and chips easily. Decorator items with sharp corners are subject to chipping, so handle with care. Do not subject to harsh cleaning agents or spray wax. Cleaning should be with damp cloth only, then wipe dry. Susan Schubes is owner of Avalon Jewelry and Pens, located at 275 S.

Some outdoor living spaces have more capacity than others. Capacity to drive future spaces and how they are imagined, indoors designed and lived in. The attention to detail on this deck, stone columns, exposed aggregate path slabs and especially the pergola, is stately and punctuated. This is space has that capacity, and more. As is often the case, shade was a dependable part of the conversation, as was craftsmanship, color, drama and viewpoints. The overhead pergola is like none we have created and completely driven by Mr. Grisham’s brilliant design. The tapered corner columns that effortlessly “grow” from the natural stone pillars have a distinct craftsman style echoed from the interior of the exquisitely detailed home. Doubled 2”×12” manufactured beams were required to confidently span the distance between columns and carry the beautifully rugged 4”×8” overhead lumber. The beams were subsequently wrapped with cedar producing massive 6”×14” stately beams. For shade, additional 4”×4” units were layered on top which choreograph into
perfect squares, boxed overhead. Simple beveled end details were anything but simple to produce and again repeated home details. The framed lake views are magnificent and championed with recessed lighting, prompting the entire space to glow at night. It is an outdoor room. A Green Egg and separate grill are employed often and the new patio furniture, cushions and wall art were carefully planned – and the details show! Mrs. Grisham said, “We love the additional living space provided by our new deck and pergola. The hardscape complements the style of the house, which together with the new landscape beds, provide a vibrant and functional access to the deck.” Every outdoor living space offers a story and has the capacity to change how you live, entertain and how you enjoy the outdoors. What story does your space tell? Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel home improvement firm.

Center of it all: The kitchen island Commentary by David Decker The modern kitchen fulfills many different roles. It’s a family gathering place, a house party hotspot, a homework help center, indoors a storage headquarters and a five-star restaurant. For many homeowners, the functionality of a kitchen begins with a well-designed island. Islands are ideal for a variety of kitchen tasks including cooking, baking, cleanup, storage, informal dining, entertaining party guests and more. And because they can be accessed from multiple sides and heights, it’s much easier to gather around the kitchen island than the kitchen table. There are many ways to design a functional kitchen island, but let’s take a look at a few of the must-have features. First, you’ll want to decide what you are going to use the island for most frequently, and use those functions to devise your design and storage plan. For example, if you would like to use the island as a food prep station, include outlets for small appliances, a prep sink and storage for cooking utensils such as cutting boards, knives and mixing bowls. Or if you are using the island as a dining area, make sure the countertop height is designed to fit standard chairs or stools. The island should be crafted to fit your utilitarian needs. Because most islands require quite a bit of space, it’s important to strategically plan your design. You may want to select a moveable island instead of a built-in, station-

ary one. Be sure to select an island size and style that won’t overwhelm your kitchen. If you choose to include seating with your island, you’ll want to pick chairs or stools that don’t get in the way of the workflow. Otherwise, your kitchen may become difficult to navigate. You’ll also want an effective cabinetry design. Creating more built-in storage means your island will appear more spacious, inviting and tidy. Within your cabinetry, try installing lazy susans, pullout shelves, or deep drawers to maximize the space. You can even install appliance garages to store toasters, mixers, juicers and more, so that they are out of sight when not in use. There are
even cabinetry designs that feature built-in spice racks, trashcans or utensil organizers, so you can use every last inch of available space. The key to creating a savvy kitchen island is planning. Use every square inch effectively and you’ll be surprised at how your kitchen space can be transformed.
