Local photographer ‘makes gold’
By Dawn Pearson • news@currentzionsville..com
“You don’t take a photograph, you make it.” — Ansel Adams Adams’ quote is exactly true achievement for local photographer Chis Bucher on his latest shuttering achievement; a gold-medal winner of the National Museum of Sport’s International Fine Art Competition in its photography division. Bucher captured the photograph for Klipsch during qualifications for the inaugural Grand Prix of Indianapolis that was at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in May. And the photograph wasn’t taken. It was made just like most good photographs are with many different elements beyond any photographer’s control. Bucher’s award winning photograph developed out of a marketing project by Klipsch, a global speaker and headphone manufacturer. Klipsch launched a large-scale sports marketing initiative in 2013 that has since incorporated worldrenowned athletes into the daily activities fueling the brand and its overall growth. Brand ambassadors include Andrew Luck (Indianapolis Colts), Robert Mathis (Indianapolis Colts), DeMar DeRozan (Toronto Raptors), Roy Hibbert (Indiana Pacers) and Josef Newgarden (IndyCar) according to Ashley Eggert of Dittoe PR for Klipsch, in a press release. “We were supposed to shoot a big production for this campaign with (Indy Car driver Newgarden), on the yard of bricks, lighting the track, storm clouds in the background, it was going to be a large shoot,” Bucher said. “We never even had a window of time to do it due to weather.” So Bucher said to Matt Sommers, vice president of

marketing and creative strategies for Klipsch, that is would be bad for them to let this opportunity to slip by. “I proposed to shoot it like a media sports editorial type photograph, all in black and white, authentic. not set up or staged,” Bucher said. “This wasn’t the plan so I gave (Newgarden) direction and shot him in front of his car, shot four or five frames and that was it, literally 30 seconds before he put his helmet on to drive for qualifications.” Making a photograph and not just taking a photograph. “Chris’ photograph candidly depicts the power and performance of both Klipsch and CFH Racing,” said Matt Sommers, vice president of marketing and creative strategies for Klipsch. “Shooting this rising star in the IndyCar world in front of his car, surrounded by the controlled chaos of the crew while prepping for qualifications brings light to the excitement and death-defying challenge inherent in motorsports,” a three-time gold medalist in the NAMOS annual competition photographer said. “Newgarden’s lighthearted charisma coupled with steel-hearted determination certainly helped make this photo.” The internationally acclaimed and award-winning photograph was unveiled as a permanent installation at Klipsch corporate headquarters earlier this month. On hand for the unveiling of Bucher’s photograph was Newgarden, along with team co-owner Sarah Fisher and Elizabeth Varner from the National Museum of Sport. And people are what inspires Bucher’s photography. “I’ve taken a lot of photos of people, in all areas of life, and they inspire me to show them who they really are in a moment in time,” Bucher said.

minutes with Michael Parker
40 Days For Life
By Melissa Hicks Michael Parker is a student of Zionsville Community High School and volunteer at the Zion Nature Center. He has been a resident of Zionsville all his life. What is the last good book you’ve read? “I don’t read a ton, but last year in school we read ‘The Things They Carried’ by Tim O’Brien. That was a pretty good book.” If you could travel anywhere, where would it be and why? “Probably to Arizona because I go on a mission trip there every year and that’s like my favorite spot to be in. It’s in Flagstaff, right next to the Navajo Reservation.” What music have you been listening to recently? “I listen to a lot of Christian music. Actually there’s an artist called Lecrae, and it’s really weird, it’s Christian rap.” What do you do in your spare time? “I spend a lot of time at Hoosier Heights Indianapolis, I spend a lot of time there climbing and hanging out. Or just hanging out with friends. Going to the football games on Friday nights. And a lot of outdoor stuff.” What do you see as opportunities for your community? “I think Zionsville has grown a lot in its size. Which in a way it’s a little disappointing because you’re losing that small town feel. But it’s still growing which gives it more opportunities for business and bringing money in. Stuff like that and expanding. So that’s really good for them to keep doing that would open up a lot of opportunities.” Five Minutes With is a recurring feature of Current in Zionsville. If you or someone you know would like to be featured, please e-mail melissa@youarecurrent.com.

Trick or treating, Zionsville style news@currentzionsville.com Get your costumes ready! Halloween is right around the corner. Here’s where you will want to make an appearance this Halloween week. Oct. 29 Boone Village Halloween party - Bring your children for safe trick or treating with the merchants and service groups of Zionsville in Boone Village. Special guests include the Zionsville Fire Department and Zionsville Police Department. The costume contest is at 6 p.m. Trophies are given for first, second, and third place costumes by age groups. Back again this year is the KID (Kid’s Imaginative Design) Award. There will be two awards given, one in the five to seven age group and one in the eight-andolder age group. The KID Award celebrates and encourages the imagination and resourcefulness of our community’s children. It is awarded to the child who has best created an original costume, using his or her own effort, imagination and materials. For more information contact Leigh Ann Akard at Akard True Value 873-5255. Oct. 31 Trunk or treat at the American Legion - Come out and decorate your vehicle and/or yourself to pass out candy for the ghouls and goblins in the Legion parking lot or bring your kid to trick or treat.
Any questions call 695-8885 or email zionsvilleamericanlegionpost79@gmail.com. Town-wide trick or treating - The Town of Zionsville has announced that the official hours of trick or treating will be from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Homes welcoming trick or treaters should turn on their porch lights. If you do not wish to receive trick or treaters or have run out of candy, please turn porch lights off. While there are many neighborhoods and other organizations that hold their own Halloween events and celebrations, officials encourage those who want to trick or treat door-to-door to use the town’s official hours to do so. Town officials would also like to remind its citizens of a few guidelines and proper safety procedures to follow for a safer celebration. While preparing for Halloween festivities, keep several important safety tips in mind. Adults should always accompany their children and carry a flashlight at night, staying within their own neighborhood and known homes. Watch for traffic before crossing any street. Avoid costumes that are long, which could cause tripping or costumes that have hard plastic or wood props like swords that could be a hazard. Face paint is often a safer alternative to masks that may obstruct vision. It is also important to inspect candy before allowing children to have it; dispose of any candy that is unwrapped. Also, only fire retardant materials should be used for costumes.

Life skills through martial arts By Kristen Yates • news@currentzionsville.com Born from a love of ancient martial arts came the fun, affordable, kid-friendly program that is sweeping the north side of Indiasports napolis. Crouching Tigers’ president and founder, Olivia Roney Spahn has expanded on her 11 years of karate background to begin a business that explores story telling, life lessons, and traditional martial arts techniques. “I started Crouching Tigers in 2007 while attending college at IUPUI as a fun way for children from ages two to seven to get involved in a kidfriendly, parent-approved, no-contact martial arts program. While building on the basic techniques something else started growing as well,” Spahn said. Today, at several locations around Carmel and Zionsville, more than 110 classes are taught on a weekly basis. Over the past seven years the program as grown into more than just a fun 30-to-45-minute class with your friends. Spahn has started incorporating stories, animal characters, life skills and awareness activities. “The best part of my job is writing the curriculum,” Spahn said. “There is something really special about writing short stories and having that story read to thousands of children throughout the next week.” The characters and stories that have been created for these kids is a crucial part of the teachings. One character Spahn has created called Recycling Ben, teaches children about recycling negative words and thoughts into positive ones. It’s the little details like this that make Couching Tigers unique in their approach to learning. AlThe next free class with Crouching Tigers: • Fountain Square Library on Nov. 10 at 11 a.m. (1066 Virginia Ave.) For more information, visit www.crouchingtigers.com/sign-up-for-free-class.

though these classes have traditionally been held within day cares and community centers Spahn wants to give the public a chance to experience them as well. She has teamed up with the Indianapolis Public Library to put on several free demos around the north side of Indianapolis. “While Crouching Tigers started out as a fun, convenient and affordable martial arts option for families it has certainly evolved into something much more,” Spahn said. “While still using martial arts as a vehicle to teach our lessons, the program has become so much more about resilience than anything else.”

No guarantee for pie shop
By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com
They love her pies, but aren’t fans of her plans. At the Oct. 20 meeting of the Zionsville Plan Commission, the group heard a business petition from Kelly Maucere, the owner of My Sugar Pie. It was a petition the commission ultimately agreed to not vote on and reconsider at the Nov. 17 meeting. Maucere, who started her pie-baking business seven years ago and opened her storefront location on Cedar Street three years ago, said she needs to prepare for the holiday rush durMaucere ing November and December by adding a refrigeration unit to her building. “We’ve gone over the last few years from just a small pie shop to a destination spot for Zionsville,” Maucere said of her growing business. She said she and her staff of three full-time bakers and 10 part-time employees will prepare thousands of pies during the week of Thanksgiving. “I respectfully request that you allow My Sugar Pie to continue to grow,” she said, requesting for permission to have a 6-foot by 8-foot modular refrigerator on the north west side of the building installed. This unit would be accessed from inside the building. Neighbors of My Sugar Pie adamantly oppose this idea. Drew Kogan, the owner of Kogan An-
tiques and Lighting on Main Street, said he not only runs his business next to My Sugar Pie, but also lives inside his store. “This is going to block the entrance of my shop,” he said. “I live here and I work here. This is my livelihood.” While Maucere stood by the fact that the unit would be covered by a tree and sit behind a six-foot fence, Kogan said this tree would only provide coverage six months out of the year. Commissioner Kevin Schiferl said one of his “biggest regrets” was missing a plan commission meeting last year, when the commission passed Kogan Maucere’s first petition for an expansion via the east side of her building. He said the first freezer installed was an “abomination” to the village. “There’s no fencing around it whatsoever and trash accumulated around it often,” he said. After commissioners told Maucere that she had almost no chance of getting this second petition passed this month, she agreed to engage in a continuance of this issue and said she will revisit the architectural plans for her refrigeration unit, with the possibility of putting the unit on the east side of the building. “But you should understand there’s no guarantee that you’re going to be successful,” said commission president Allan Rachles.

CMA artist home on hiatus
By Dawn Pearson • news@currentzionsville..com She’s back on the bricks after touring the nation all year, and Kendall Phillips couldn’t feel more at home. This rising country update music star is a recent inductee in the Country Music Association. “I was inducted into the Country Music Association which was super huge and it’s a very difficult process,” Phillips said. “You have to have so many CMA references, have so many songs chart at a certain position, have so many record sales, have a certain number of fans and play a certain number of shows each year with a certain number of artists turn out. I cried when I got the news.” And Phillips waited and waited on edge of her tour bus seat for the official induction notice of a “blue check” to pop up. “I’ve been a little jealous of so many of my friends for getting their blue check and I still hadn’t gotten mine, but alas I got it and yes, I called everyone and jumped up and down,” Phillips said. “I know, I know, it’s just a blue check that says ‘I’m legit’ but still that kind of made my day. Obviously, this whole fame thing hasn’t changed the fact that I’m a total dork.” Phillips has been busy on the road and on tour and has enjoyed her traveling experiences. “I’ve gotten to travel to a lot of amazing places and do a lot of amazing things along the way like skydive, kayak, work face to face with a bald eagle, and (rather unintentionally) swim with sharks,” she said. And for the first time, this year’s tour was with Phillips as a headliner. “I did get to open for some pretty cool country acts along the way, but this tour was primarily about me connecting with fans,” she said. Phillips said. “Because let’s face it, when you open for Keith Urban, as amazing as it is, people love to see you perform, but rather than come say hi after the show - they’re going to be watching Keith perform, so you don’t really get to meet the fans or make potential new connections that way.” This month, she is taking a break from Nashville, but said she will head back soon to continue working, writing and recording new material. “I’m actually recording at a new studio in

Ginny Caltrider, of Zionsville, knows a thing or two about giving back to her community. For 36 service years she has volunteered with the Zionsville Meals on Wheels group, helping to serve meals to shut-ins and the elderly around town. These days, she can be found balancing the books for the organization and making sure the drivers who deliver meals stay on top of turning in their receipts. “It isn’t hard but it is important,” Caltrider said. Earlier this month, Zionsville Meals on Wheels met in the community room of the Zionsville Town Hall to discuss the year’s successes and shortcomings. Pat Mundy, who has co-directed Meals on Wheels with her husband and town councilman Steve Mundy since 2009, led the meeting. Pat said Zionsville Meals on Wheels has more than 40 volunteer drivers and delivers meals to seven people. “We’ve had as many as 14 (people receiving meals),” she said. “But the
number fluctuates.” All of the meals are purchased from the Hearth at Tudor Gardens senior-living facility on Michigan Road, then sold and delivered to the meal recipients for a cost of $3.50 per day, or $17.50 per week. “It is just one hot meal a day that they can count on,” Pat said. Pat said this is an ideal service for the elderly who have a difficult time making their way around the kitchen. Many times, Pat coordinates these meal deliveries with the meal recipients’ loved ones who may or may not live nearby. “A lot of people don’t realize that there really are people in Zionsville who need us,” Pat said. In the event that a recipient doesn’t come to the door when their meal is delivered between 11:30 a.m. and noon, Pat takes it upon herself to make sure everything is OK. “It’s more than delivering a meal,” she said. “We want to make sure they’re doing OK. A lot of time this is the only interaction they have all day.” To learn more about Meals on Wheels, visit the group’s new website: www.zionsvillemealsonwheels.org.

Swinging into the fu ure
Breast cancer survivor shares how she’s moving on
By Dawn Pearson • news@currentzionsville..com Breast cancer doesn’t see color, race, social status or even sex. It doesn’t care if you are a stay-at-home mom, an cover story executive at Eli Lilly, a teacher, friend, daughter, sister, aunt or a rock star. What it cares about is killing women, and some men. But through years of research, countless fundraising walks honoring fallen victims, public awareness and new treatments, women are fighting back in the war against breast cancer. Katie Haun, 64, a resident of Zionsville for 37 years, is one of those women. Haun, a former Eli Lilly executive, was diagnosed with breast cancer at age 46. “I was told on a Friday that I had an aggressive form of breast cancer – the following Monday I was the featured speaker at ‘Women’s Health Awareness Day’ at Eli Lilly,” Haun said. “I was well aware of health topics and my whole
www.currentzionsville.com
life always bent in the direction of wellness, but it still happened to me.” Haun said her diagnosis was a surprise because she had never called in sick to work in more than 17 years. “I was going to healthy seminars in my 20s and 30s before they were remotely popular,” Haun said. “So my knowledge of nutrition, balanced with sleep, exercise and detoxification helped me with my battle.” This lifestyle, along with her positive and fearless attitude, would be two of the biggest soldiers in her army she enlisted for the fight of her life, not once, but twice. “After the death of both parents at age 16 and a near-fatal car accident at age 19, in which my back was broken along with every bone in my face and later the diagnosis of aggressive breast cancer at age 46, I embraced conventional medicine combined with innovative medicine,” Haun said. “This along with my faith and prayers of friends and family was paramount to complete recovery and set the stage for my new career in health and wellness after retiring from a worldwide major pharmaceutical company.” Haun said all of her brushes with death have only made her stronger. “I survived many facial surgeries, ditched my walker, became a runway model, ran in 13 half-

marathons after my wreck,” she said of her time as a teenager. Haun went through the stem cell transplant surgery and was the first patient at St. Vincent Hospital to go through the transplant as an outpatient. This is the same treatment plan that Robin Roberts from “Good Morning America” went through, according to Haun. “They kill you to bring you back,” she said of the treatment. Combining conventional medicine with alternative medicine made the difference. She was given a 55 percent chance to live for five more years after the transplant. That was in 1998, and she has since been cancer free for 17 years. “I believe I found the cause which took me to the cure for me,” Haun said. “I am also drug free and I have quality of life.” Fighting for her life helped Haun realize she wanted to “change the face of breast cancer.” “[I needed to change it] from that bald-headed lady to the lady that took up rowing, had two holes-in-one before breast cancer and two holesin-one after breast cancer, modeled through treatments and after finishing radiation went on to walk the mini-marathon that same year,”
“Helping and educating people about wellness drives and motivates me.” - Cancer Survivor Katie Haun
Haun said. She has run 13 of the last 17 Indianapolis MiniMarathons and is running her health and wellness business that specializes in heavy metal detoxification with the same drive and tenacity that she fought breast cancer. She started Katie’s Enterprises with her husband Dave Haun to help other cancer patients find a better quality of life. “Helping and educating people about wellness drives and motivates me,” she said.
Mindfit glasses are part of what Haun offers cancer patients. She said the “brain is the greatest pharmacy in the world, and Mindfit taps into that brain pharmacy.” Her clients wear these glasses and ear buds in 20 minute sessions that help the brain visualizing cancer leaving the body.

Can’t we all just get along?
FR O M T H E BACKSHOP 8 years! Current wins with people Well, we did it! We attained our eighth anniversary as a company on Oct. 24. However, in no way did we do it alone. Now in our ninth year of publishing community-focused newspapers, we couldn’t have done it without you, our advertising partners, our internal and external colleagues and the outside vendors that make printing and delivery of “the weekly miracle” possible. The point is, you win with people – and this is a great example of that maxim. Our growth since 2006 has been fueled steadily – even through the recession – by those good folks and entities. We’ve written in this space a few times in the last eight years that we feel truly fortunate to be able to do what we love and love what we do. That has not changed. Is every single day a bed of roses? No, it most certainly is not. Most are, though. Still, with as many moving parts as we have here – not unlike so many households and businesses in our midst – “things break.” And so we work quickly to correct and not repeat the errors of our ways. That won’t change. What will change, though, is this, if plans remain as they are: Current Publishing will be growing well beyond its first-quarter 2015 launch of Current in Geist and we’ll be able to tell you the details of future expansion, we hope, in the not-too-distant future. So that fuels us, too. In a time when most make note of the declining newspaper industry, we’re humble and happy to state here that such does not apply to Current. We serve a niche and a vast and coveted audience. We provide our readers what they told us, through independent research, that they expect. Our readers linger with the newspapers and, eventually, a buying decision is initiated, and that means our readers frequent our advertisers. Again, you are the people with whom we win and, humbly, you are genuinely appreciated. ••• On Nov. 1, our editions carrying election-day information will be delivered. We hope you’ll study them and will commit to voting on Nov. 4. Brian Kelly, publisher, and Steve Greenberg, general manager, are co-owners of Current Publishing, LLC.

Commentary by Danielle WIlson
The good new days Commentary by Terry Anker Long-ago, rock concerts joined the prohibited list. Trying to squeeze a few more bucks out of the monthly budget, we had kids who would soon enough need money for college, for trips, and for all manner and sort of athletic-logoed apparel. Besides, I told myself, I’d seen most of the greats; and the prices for tickets had inflated to the point where one struggled to justify. As the years passed, the budget became a little more comfortable and the college fund fattened. But somehow, rock concerts did not find the way back to front-of-mind. Instead, we were more often attending performances from the American songbook – Tony Bennett, Michael Feinstein, Diana Krall and others filled our entertainment allotment. But as often happens when we allow our lives to slide into cruise control, someone reminds us to take back the wheel. News of Fleetwood Mac’s reunion and tour had reached me some months earlier. The venerable band would even find its way to Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Tickets
were pricy. And, I can be kind of tight. But, then came the call. Good friends found themselves with a “spare” set of seats – perfectly situated for my bride and me. They invited us to join them and insisted that it be their treat. Understandably, I could not have been happier to get the call and was delighted in their generosity as we’d seen the band on its last all-original tour 16 years ago. The concert beat even the highest expectations. The 60-plus-year-old rockers entertained us for three hours non-stop. The crowd, while fully engaged, was notably older. Even as the experience returned me to another place and time, it was a sanguine reminder that those days are past. Good. They were good days. But I wonder, do we need a new band to make new good days? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.
Q U O T E O F T H E W E E K Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.
– Thomas Edison
I have had it up to the top of my ginger head with mean people! Last week in particular, I saw more than my fair share. One of my daughter’s besties picked a fight with her, jealous over the amount of time she’d been spending with another classmate. A man completely went off on me in the parking lot of my kids’ middle school, angry that I hadn’t seen his turn signal. And some old biddy was unhelpful to the point of being obstructive to a friend of mine who was just trying to apply for a job. Can’t we all just get along? My daughter’s gal pal I can somewhat excuse. She’s at that age where friendships are both sacred and flighty, and girl drama rules the school. Insecurities, immaturity and even the lunch menu can create intense situations that no one under 20 can be expected to handle gracefully. It doesn’t help that my child is Miss Sensitive, so the idea that somebody is mad at her, however irrational the reason, sends her into hysterics, which I’m then supposed to “handle.” No can do, Mom out! The guy at the school I just don’t get at all. I was in a long line of traffic trying to drop my son off and honestly never saw his signal indicating his intention to park in a spot he’d already missed. When he started to reverse, I honked. I didn’t want him to hit me and I felt like I couldn’t move. He kept on coming, so naturally I continued to honk. He then rolled down his window and screamed me the riot act. Now maybe I was the spoiled icing on his terrible-day cake, but he didn’t have to behave that way. A patient, “I’m so sorry, but could you please back up?” would have inspired my own brand of kindness. Instead, I was forced to discover his true identity through Ninja-like stalking and file it under “Jerks.” The next morning, a friend of mine relayed her own mean-people story. While requesting her academic transcripts for a job application, the bitter spinster in charge outright refused to forward them because she thought the place of employment wouldn’t be interested in someone who didn’t have the “right qualifications.” What the what! Obviously something is dead inside that terrible woman, but why on earth would she treat a person like that? Where’s the love? Listen. With the frantic holidays around the corner, let’s just try to be nice to each other. If nothing else, showing compassion will keep you from being tracked by a creative soccer mom with melodramatic tweenagers and frustrated, unemployed allies. Love you guys! Peace out.

The history and uses of duct tape Commentary by Ward Deglar
I just discovered I have six rolls of duck tape. That shouldn’t have been a surprise since I often coincide a trip to the hardplain talk ware store with short-term memory loss, a moment in my day when I can’t remember if I have duck tape. As a result, if I spot it, I buy it – just to be safe. After all, my life, like yours, is filled with unexpected emergencies. Most of which are readily fixed with duck tape. The surprise in my discovery, however, was that four of the rolls of tape I found were different colors and patterns. There was a camouflage roll, a red and black striped roll, an orange and yucky brown pattern, and a black roll. I don’t recall buying them. I always get the silver stuff. That was enough to send me into research mode. Duck tape was first used by electrical engineers in 1936 to protect rubber-insulated power cables. The stuff was made then, as now, by spraying the back of heavy duck canvas with a mixture of powdered aluminum, and painting the front with a sticky adhesive. Duck canvas, hence the duck tape name. In 1942 Gimbels Department Store in New York sold venetian blinds held together with the stuff, and during World War II a defense plant worker wrote to President Franklin Roosevelt recommending duck tape be used to seal ammunition boxes. The reason was that duck tape could be
ripped off instantly while the traditional glued seal could take several minutes to pry apart. The change would save lives, the worker claimed. FDR agreed and duck tape went to work for the war effort. After the war, duck tape use waned until 1950 when a plumbing supply company in Cleveland, Ohio discovered its value in sealing furnace ducts. The company acquired the rights to the tape and started calling it duct tape. The name stuck until the 1970s when another firm started manufacturing it under its original name of Duck Tape. Since then people have found more uses for the stuff than anyone has ever counted. Boaters use it to plug leaks in boats. Pilots call it “500 Mile-an-Hour Tape” for its occasional use in temporary aircraft repairs. Schools and fraternities have annual contests to design clothing and other objects solely from duck tape. I once saw a bikini swim suit made from duck tape. I hoped at the time that it had a lining made from something other than tape. No matter what you use it for or what color you prefer, there is nothing better than duck tape. Wait, I just found a roll of Gorilla Tape. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

In 2008 the residents of Eagle Township, Union Township and the Town of Zionsville voted to reorganize. One of the main plain talk thrusts of reorganization was the ability to have a twotiered taxing district structure where residents only paid for and receive the services they want. Residents were not responsible for debt incurred by either of the other municipalities prior to reorganization. While this sounds simple enough, the lack of revenue to fully fund some departmental budget needs, makes it necessary to “borrow” from other funds to achieve a “balanced budget.” However, what is really happening is basically robbing from “Peter to pay Paul.” The DLGF allows such usage of one fund to “shore up” another. This is in my opinion a misuse of the budget process and eventually other funds have become so dependent on robbing from Peter, that when Paul actually needs to use the fund revenue properly, there is little to nothing left. The fund most ravaged in this manner is the Cumulative Capital Development Fund, commonly known as CCD. The CCD Fund is money from urban and rural property taxes. The CCD Fund is intended for CAPITAL expenses for Zionsville as a whole, both rural and urban residents. Should it be used at all to “shore up” another departmental fund, it should be for a service we all share
in. Those funds are: General, Fire, Fire Equipment Replacement, and Parks & Recreation. In the 2015 Budget the following is being paid for out of the CCD Fund: Responsible Department

While they worked through the closing process on their purchase, she helped them get their house in east Carmel priced and ready to sell. They launched the listing of 5345 Rippling Brook Way on a Friday afternoon, and 5 showings were immediately scheduled for Saturday! An offer was received Saturday night, and the house was sold by Sunday afternoon. The entire process, from the purchase to the sale, through the closings of both, was absolutely seamless. Not a detail was forgotten, Frank and Barb got to move smoothly from one house to the other before they turned over the keys. Now they are comfortable settling in to their new home, which is conveniently located very near their children and grandchildren. When you’re looking for the perfect ending to your own housing saga, trust Jennifer to write it for you!

READERS’ VIEWS She walks the walk Editor, Zionsville voters are fortunate to have the choice of Debbie Ungar as a candidate in this Fall’s election for the at-large position on the Zionsville School Board. I have spent a good part of my career working in education and related fields, and have rarely met a parent or community volunteer who has the passion and commitment to education I have seen in Debbie. Debbie walks the walk, willingly rolling up her sleeves to tackle hard jobs if she believes that academic excellence will result. She listens well and makes decisions based on facts. Debbie has worked hard to learn the intricacies of school funding because she wants to ensure that our
schools continue to provide excellent education for students while wisely using the funds entrusted to them by our community. Debbie knows our community and the issues facing our schools very well, such knowledge is essential for an effective School Board member. She is not afraid to ask questions or challenge those in authority when necessary. I encourage you to learn more about all of the candidates for School Board. Local elections often have much more impact on our day-to-day experiences than national elections and none more so than School Board. In doing so, I am certain you will find Debbie worthy of your vote. David G. Ruffer, Zionsville
School Board wrong on reorganization Editor, The Zionsville School Board, at its latest meeting, passed a resolution admonishing voters to vote in favor of the reorganization. This is unfortunate because it gives the impression that the reorganization would benefit education in Zionsville. It would not. Zionsville is synonymous with excellent schools and one of the benefits of the first reorganization is that it made the town limits and the school district lines nearly concurrent with each other meaning that almost the same electorate voting for the school board was also voting for town officials who have power over economic development. Therefore, the development goals could align more with the needs of the schools. For example, the town could get commercial and light industrial development which would contribute to the schools’ revenues without put-
ting additional students in the system. The first reorganization also tied the identity of the town and school district closer together. This second reorganization which is on the ballot this year would cause us to lose these benefits. Perry Township is part of the Lebanon Community School Corporation and it would continue to send its students there while no property taxes from the township would go to our schools. Residents of Perry would sit on our economic development boards and a Perry resident could become mayor, but they would not have a vested interest in promoting economic development that would help our schools. While the judge ruled against the reorganization, it is still on the ballot and her decision could be overturned on appeal. Therefore, it is still important for voters to vote “no” on this referendum. Jay Neel, Zionsville
New leadership, no Longest Editor, Jim Longest is running for a third term on the school board. He is also the president of Beam Longest & Neff, the contracted engineering firm for the Town of Zionsville since 2010. While Longest’s dual roles are not illegal in Indiana, his firm received over $500,000 last year for engineering services from the town, much of it in TIF (tax increment financing) districts in Zionsville. It is known that development in Zionsville affects the school’s budget and funding. Development also requires more engineering services. TIF districts have been created in the southeastern corner of Zionsville and in the Anson development near I-65. Members of the appointed (not elected) Redevelopment Commission have allowed construction of many new apartment buildings in TIF districts. TIF districts are known to divert property tax revenue away from schools and other property tax supported services for up to 25 years. Where is the benefit to schools from commercial development in a
TIF district when Indiana TIF districts last 25 years? The RDC is the beneficiary of property taxes from TIF districts. The the RDC then uses the TIF taxes to pay off the bond debt (incurred from infrastructure for the TIF district) and to pay to continue building infrastructure for more TIF districts. Such a tax flow erodes the school corporation’s property tax base and the schools receive fewer tax dollars. This causes incentives for the School Board to ask voters to approve more operating referendums. TIF districts can erode school funding in another way. When residential apartment buildings are built in TIF districts, TIF districts increase school enrollments WITHOUT adding to school funding. Apartment and other residential growth outside TIF districts DO add significantly to the schools tax base and funding. Many new apartment buildings have been allowed by the Zionsville RDC in our TIF districts, enough to cause a need for additional schools in just a few years. This will cause further increases in property tax

Cool Creek Park trails get haunted for holiday
By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com
The haunted trails
The usual tranquil wooded area of Cool Creek Parks will turn into a horror scene complete with zombies and chainsaw halloween wielding masked men for the annual Halloweenthemed Haunted Trails Oct. 28 through 30. Haunted Trails features guided group tours through several different ghoul- and ghostthemed fright stations along the park’s trails and paths for thrill seekers older than 12. “It takes an army of parks staff and volunteers to stage this thing. Everybody loves the number of hours they put into this thing,” said Don Nicholls, resource development specialist with Hamilton County Parks and Recreation. Nicholls said the event is one of the department’s best fundraisers as many fright stations
7 to 10 p.m. Oct. 28 through 30 • Cool Creek Park, 2000 E. 151st St., Westfield • Cost is $5 • www.myhamiltoncountyparks.com.
are manned by high school students. “Band students, key clubs and thespians can earn as much as $2,000 for their organizations,” he said. “It’s a good opportunity for youth groups.” Nicholls said this year’s event will include 13 to 15 fright stations. He said staff members keep an eye on groups on the trails, especially those that seem to know it all. “Teens that can’t be impressed, those are the ones we target. We know we’ve done our job when we quiet down those groups,” Nicholls said. Northern Lights will provide stage entertain-
ment, music for guests standing in line, hay rides, a camp fire and storytelling. For younger children, Nicholls said a Trick-orTreat Trail is available from 6 to 9 p.m. He said the area is now committed to children and away from the Haunted Trails. “It’s a fright-free zone,” Nicholls said. “In the past, we had a place that the Haunted Trail dumped out to. It didn’t seem right to have children being there.” The Trick-or-Treat Trail activities include craft stations, a Not-so-scary Nature Trail, Spooktacular shelter, live owls with a wildlife educator, Monster Mash dance area and marshmallows at the campfire ring. Cost is $1 and is designed for preschool and elementary-aged school children and their families. “There are lots of fun, different activities at multiple stations,” Nicholls said.
2nd Pumpkin Harvest Festival – Stonycreek Farm, 11366 Ind. 38 East, is hosting its annual festival from 10 a.m. NOBLESVILLE to 5 p.m. now through Oct. 31.

Regan, Johnson win Halloween Writing Contest
presents
Youth winner – Corinne Regan, 11, of Noblesville I hate all of this superstition around Halloween. That weird stuff like, if you see a black cat, you’re going to die. But that’s just crazy. Well, at least I used to think that. Everything went insane on Halloween, as I was waiting for my bus. My friend, Jeffrey, came running to me, his hair bouncing as he ran. I looked at him and rolled my eyes. I was tired of Jeffrey, because the only thing that he didn’t believe in was ghosts. Jeffrey kept sprinting toward me, tripping over his own feet. He finally reached me, looking like he was about to puke up a lung. “I saw a ghost.” he gasped. This really surprised me, because Jeffrey doesn’t believe in ghosts. “What do you mean you saw a ghost? Who was it?” I asked. I wanted to know exactly what happened. “Well,” Jeffrey mumbled, “I think it was the man, from my house. He looked right at me. I swear, I wasn’t just seeing things.” In Jeffrey’s house, apparently, a murderer once lived in his house but he died a long time ago. I looked Jeffrey in the eye and saw that the whites of his eyes had turned blood red. I backed away, barely breathing. His face was completely expressionless. His pupils and iris
disappeared, leaving only crimson. “Are you scared?” he asked in a deep, rough voice, that wasn’t even his. I gagged, backing even farther away from him. Suddenly, he shot out his right arm and squeezed my neck. With incredible strength, he lifted me off the ground. I gripped his hand, trying to pry it off. He thrust me on the ground, and stood over me. I closed my eyes, waiting for Jeffrey to kill me. I slowly opened my eyes, and his eyes weren’t red anymore. He was normal again. I pulled myself up and looked closely at Jeffrey. His eyes didn’t show any unusual red, and his pupils were back. I spun around on my heel, as the bus turned the corner and was almost to us. I felt a hand on my back and I plunged toward the bus. I looked around, for a second, and saw Jeffrey and his red eyes standing over me, laughing. Then my head smashed against the pavement. I slowly opened my eyes, to see an empty bag of Halloween candy and a mountain of hundreds of candy wrappers. I breathed deeply and realized that it was just a dream. I never was actually pushed in front of the bus. I had passed out because of all of the candy I ate. It was just a dream. It was just a dream. Or was it?

Tailgating in cold weather
Tailgating by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley
So the 10-day forecast is for cold weather on game day. Don’t lose heart; here are some hints to make your tailgate party bearable. Dress for success – wear layers of clothes that breathe. Wool, cotton and even some of those newly designed materials that you can’t pronounce will work. Stay out of the wind – set up on the lea side of your vehicle or attach a wind screen to protect you with a trap, bungee cords and weights. Have a heat source – God gives us the sun so use it by setting up so your chairs are in the sunshine. If there’s no sun, set up your grill and stoves on the lea side of your windbreak and use them for warmth. A boiling pot of soup throws off a lot of heat. Here is a great cold-weather soup using our favorite health food, sausage. Italian Wedding Soup Ingredients: Tiny meatballs: 1 package (19 ounce) JOHNSONVILLE mild or sweet Italian Sausage, 1 egg, lightly beaten, 1 cup Italian bread crumbs, 2 teaspoons fennel seeds, crushed or chopped, 1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, minced, 1/2 teaspoon Frank’s ®RedHot® cayenne pepper sauce (optional). Soup: 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1 medium onion, finely diced, 1 teaspoon dried or fresh thyme, 1 teaspoon dried sage leaves, 2 cloves garlic, finely minced, 1 medium carrot, finely chopped, 1 stalk celery, finely chopped, 8 cups chicken stock, 1 bay leaf, 8 ounces orzo pasta, cooked, 1 cup spinach, roughly chopped, 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded Directions: 1. Mix meatball ingredients together and roll small meatballs the size of a marble. (If forming the meatball is difficult, cover and refrigerate first.) 2.

set aside. 3. Prep the vegetables. 4. In a large pot, sauté onion, thyme and sage in olive oil. When the onion starts to turn a golden color, add garlic, carrot and celery, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 5. Set the vegetable mixture aside on a plate. 6. In the same pot, add all the meatballs and cook for 2 to 3 minutes before stirring. (This will keep them from breaking). Gently toss with a rubber spatula to brown on all sides. 7. Add reserved vegetables, chicken stock and bay leaf. Simmer gently (do not boil), until vegetables are tender and meatballs are cooked through. 8. Add cooked orzo and spinach, stir together. (Adding spinach right before serving will help it maintain its rich green color). 9. Garnish bowls/cups with parmesan cheese. Joe Drozda is an author about sports and food.

‘Golda’s Balcony’ now on stage news@currentzionsville.com Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre in Carmel is pleased to present Broadway’s longest running one-woman show, “Golda’s Balcony,” as this season’s second production. The theater show is running now until Nov. 8. Indianapolis actress Miki Mathioudakis will take the stage as Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir for the second time in her stage career. “From my prior experience, I hope to bring a well-rounded understanding of Jewish traditions and the situation in the Middle East to the role,” Mathioudakis stated in an e-mail to Current. “Being an ordained minister in the Christian Church, I have observed similarities in the Jewish faith that are helping me relate to Golda Meir and her religion.” William Gibson’s “Golda’s Balcony” follows the life of Meir from her impoverished childhood in Russia to her time as the fourth prime minister of Israel. The play examines Meir’s personal and public life and provides intimate insight into the power, strength and idealism which caused many to regard her as a legendary world leader during a time of great conflict. “In relation to recent events in Israel, this story is a reminder that war is without end,” Mathioudakis said. “‘Golda’s Balcony’ shows that war is not a one-sided story, and it strengthens the notion that everybody, regardless of their nationality, just wants a place to call their own.”

The unluckiest of all: ‘Macbeth’ By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com Are we evil because the world made us this way? Or do the seeds of evil already lie within us? How far would you go to maintain power and at what cost? When you on stage look into the abyss, what looks back at you? These are just some of the questions that might be answered during the Carmel Theatre Company’s rendition of William Shakespeare’s “Macbeth.” “Plus, there are witches, knives, blood, and murder. What could be more fun at Halloween?” said the play’s producer, Glenn Dobbs, of First Folio Productions. For a theater group that was once known at The Rep, the newly named CTC is back at its old location of Studio 15, at 15 First Ave. NE, in Carmel. Dobbs said there is almost no better Shakespeare performance that would be more fitting for the month of October. Dobbs quoted renowned Shakespearian critic Harold Bloom, who once said that “No other drama by Shakespeare — not even ‘King Lear,’ ‘A Midsummer Night Dream,’ or ‘The Tempest’ — so engulfs us in a phantasmagoria.” “For me, Shakespeare is the undisputed master at showing us the human soul,” Dobbs said. “His plays always have rich veins of ore to mine to show us the nature of humanity and how it responds to the world. ‘Macbeth’ is no

The COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE PROCESS is an alternative to traditionally-litigated divorce, and can be more time and cost effective than the typical litigation path. Collaborative divorce is a way to effectively and efficiently move a couple through the divorce process while maintaining a high level of dignity and respect – in even the most contentious cases. Time. In litigation cases, divorce cases take several months or even a few years; however, in collaborative cases, the parties schedule their meetings at times that suit their schedules. They produce documents and records, and respond to inquiries informally during 4-way meetings (parties and counsel) with open dialogue. There are no time restraints, and the parties are free to work through the dissolution or post-dissolution issues on their timetable. A view of the whole picture. In a litigation-track divorce, parties work independently of one another, and his/her case is developed from information that a client knows or has specifically requested from the other party. This process often takes several months. In collaborative cases, the parties meet in 4-way meetings, with open dialogue and free exchange of necessary documentation and information. This process significantly saves time and attorney fees. Command your own destiny. Whether the litigation case is tried in court or resolved via mediation, the destiny of the divorcing couple is in the hands of the judge, attorney, or, potentially, the mediator. In collaborative cases, however, parties begin 4-way meetings right away and decisions can be made during the process after presentation of and collaboration on the facts and
issues. The collaborative process allows the parties to have a say in their future and the future of their children from the very beginning of the divorce process. Maintain respect and civility. Parents who are divorced are forever linked to the ex-spouse. They will see each other at times such as sporting events, graduations, weddings and grandchildren’s birthday parties. Parents who are respectful and civil are often welcomed by the children at these events, while parents who are bitter and angry are not. The collaborative process is multi-disciplinary team approach which is designed to help the couple move through the process efficiently. The collaborative team of professionals works with the couple to assist them in making good decisions about custody, parenting time and division of debts and assets. In addition to the “here and now issues,” the collaborative team develops communication techniques and “rules of the game,” that will help the couple and children move successfully into the next season of their lives. Save money. Last, but certainly not least, is the savings of attorney fees and litigation costs. Collaborative practice typically costs 30% less than traditional divorce. Collaborative divorce is a viable, cost-savings, effective, and efficient way to move forward to a new beginning. At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs.

Freedom to move
Commentary by Sally Bassett
We take for granted the right to even have the freedom to move, to exercise, to dance. You might deplore exercising on the mat but at least you have the freedom to do so. When visiting a Palestine Refugee camp in Jordan a few years ago, I was honored to be invited to teach yoga to a group of women in an upstairs private room. The women came in shyly before removing their burka or whatever heavy clothes they could dispose of to have more freedom of movement. There was laughter, giggles, and anticipation as they joyfully waited to try yoga. Even if you do have your favorite sport, I am here to tell you that there is not any better connection with mind, body and spirit than yoga. As a former marathon runner, there is nothing like getting on the mat, moving your body and finding space you did not know was there. Close your eyes for a moment and visualize a time in your past that you truly moved. One vision I have is dancing in a Mexican disco before it opened. The flight crew and I were able to get on the dance floor while the music was being
tested and danced our hearts out. In Islam, dancing in general is forbidden. In Japan, dancing in most venues after midnight is illegal. This law has been around for decades but started to be strictly enforced again in 2012, with regular police raids on nightclubs becoming a common event. In the Nordic countries, a license is required for dancing in a public place. By law, all dancing is arranged; there is no such thing as spontaneous dance. In the first codification of the practice of yoga by a guy named Patanjali, he wrote the Yoga Sutras—four chapters, 196 verses. He says it is our God-given right to find Self and joy. Find joy in movement and connect to your own true self. Movement is like meditation in motion. So, move by reaching, stretching, and exploring the sensations. Until next time… Namaste!
In 2013, nearly half a million patients in Indiana received free or reduced-cost care from Indiana University Health. Beyond giving back the $308 million provided in charity care, IU Health also brought health care into the community by investing nearly $32 million in community health initiatives, reaching nearly a million people through health screenings and health education programs. Throughout the year, IU Health North Hospital supported many local organizations including Trinity Free Clinic and the Carmel Police Dept. in the organizations’ joint car seat safety program. Through the partnership, 145 free car seats were provided to Hamilton County families unable to afford them.

Skjodt-Barrett Foods, a worldwide distributor of packaged food products, announced it is bringing high-speed aseptic business production technology to North America, and expanding its corporate headquarters in Lebanon, Ind. The announcement is part of a four-phase process that includes the investment of $43.9M to improve its 55-acre campus within the Lebanon Business Park. The announcement includes the creation of 97 new jobs by 2017. “Job creation in Indiana is on the rise. From Japan and Germany to the United Kingdom and Canada, companies from around the world are discovering the Hoosier State’s pro-growth business climate is key to their success,” said Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. “While meeting with Skjodt-Barrett’s leadership today in Toronto, they explained how their growing team continues to thrive here in Indiana, a state that works.” Skjodt-Barrett Foods, a 29-year-old specialty food manufacturer, chose Lebanon as the place for its U.S. headquarters in 2011. The company makes custom fruit fillings, icings, glazes, sauces, baby food, and spouted pouches. Skjodt-Barrett decision-makers chose to expand in Boone
County, over Ontario, Canada. “Indiana has a very favorable business climate, which includes support for continued employee education and training,” said Mike Brannan, general manager of Skjodt-Barrett’s U.S. operations. “The ability to rely on support from the state of Indiana contributes to Skjodt-Barrett’s ability to invest in cutting-edge technologies and expansion opportunities. All of this coupled with the state’s convenient location within one day’s drive of 80 percent of the U.S. population made the choice to invest in Indiana easy.” The Indiana Economic Development Corporation offered Skjodt-Barrett Contract Packaging LLC up to $550,000 in conditional tax credits and up to $102,000 in training grants based on the company’s job creation plans. These tax credits are performance-based, meaning until Hoosiers are hired, the company is not eligible to claim incentives. The city of Lebanon will consider additional property tax abatement at the request of the Boone County Economic Development Corporation. Aseptic processing is the process by which a sterile (aseptic) product (typically food or pharmaceutical) is packaged in a sterile container in a way that maintains sterility.

Pending sales fall in Septmeber Commentary by Jim Litten
More than 2,000 homes pended in September, with five Central Indiana counties reporting increased sales compared to real estate the same time period last year, according to statistics compiled by F.C. Tucker Company. Overall, September 2014 pended home sales rose 1.1 percent to 2,203 over September 2013, an increase of 25 homes sold in the nine counties that F.C. Tucker tracks. Year-to-date, 22,527 homes pended, a decline of 1,562 homes compared to the same time period in 2013. Boone County is among the areas that experienced an increase. Last month, 88 homes pended, an increase of six percent compared to September 2013. • Pended home sales decreased slightly in Zionsville. Last month 37 homes pended, a decrease of one home compared to September 2013. • Of the pended home sales in Zionsville last month, two were priced $1,000,000 to $1,999,999; five were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 18 were priced $300,000 to
29
$499,999; eight were priced $200,000 to $299,999; and four were priced $100,000 to $199,999. • In Zionsville, the average year-to-date sale price in September was $384,245 an increase of 11 percent compared to the same time period last year. • Inventory is moving fast. Last month, homes in Zionsville remained on the market an average of 80 days, which is a decrease of two days from September 2013. • The number of homes for sale has remained stable. In September 2014, 212 homes were on the market, unchanged from September 2013. As we move into the final quarter of the year, sales appear healthy. Though sales will likely slow as we settle into the colder months, we believe the Central Indiana housing market will continue to make subtle progress. Jim Litten is the president of F.C.

Gods and politics in Athens agora Commentary by Don Knebel The colonnaded Parthenon atop the flat hill of the Athenian Acropolis is one of the most recognizable structures in the world, Travel epitomizing Classical architecture. But the buildings below the Acropolis were more important to the history of both democracy and Christianity. As early as the seventh century B.C., the lower area northwest of the Acropolis was cleared of houses and reserved for use as an agora (marketplace). After the Greeks defeated the Persians in 480 B.C., Athens became the most important city in Greece and the agora became the center of Athenian life. The agora included buildings where citizens enacted legislation and served as jurors in law cases. It also included temples and monuments to Athens’ pantheon of gods and goddesses, including Apollo, Hephaestus and Aphrodite. The so-called “Altar of the Twelve Gods” established the point from which all distances in Athens were measured. A stone inscription referenced an “unknown god,” reportedly responsible for a devastating plague. West of the Acropolis a marble outcropping known as Mars Hill held the Areopagus, an institution performing various governmental functions over time.
When the Romans conquered Athens in about 88 B.C., they largely retained the buildings and temples of the agora. In the first century, people gathered in the Areopagus to discuss philosophical and political matters. According to the Book of Acts, when Paul visited Athens in about 51 A.D., he was distressed by all the idols he saw being worshipped in the temples. After seeking to make followers of Jesus among people walking about the agora, Paul debated Athenian intellectuals in the Areopagus. He argued that the transcendent God of the Jews was the “unknown god” they had been seeking. A few influential Athenians reportedly accepted Paul’s argument and became Christians. The Athens agora has been maintained as a public site and some of its buildings are remarkably well preserved. A plaque at the base of Mars Hill displays the argument Paul made to the Areopagus, reflecting Christianity’s current status as the state religion of Greece. The precise identities of the “Twelve Gods,” once worshipped at the center of Athens, are long forgotten. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

From dark basement to upscale entertaining space Commentary by Larry Greene EXISTING BASEMENT: Located on the south side of Indianapolis, this formerly dark basement did not provide blueprint for the atmosphere these improvement entertainment oriented homeowners desired. While the husband wanted a man-cave feel, they both wanted a space that felt energetic, modern and contemporary. They wanted to entertain, have conversation and relax. LOUNGE AREA: Due to the lack of natural light, the homeowners concentrated on ways to brighten up the space. Recessed can lights were installed in the ceiling and a large mini-chandelier was installed to brighten the space and add to the contemporary look. The orange walls were painted soft beige. The moldings, stairs, balusters and railing were painted white to match the newly added bookcases. WET BAR: Once the demolition of the existing brick wall was complete, new cabinetry was installed featuring glass front doors, wine racking and storage for stemware. This allowed them to showcase their favorite liquors and even to house their karaoke equipment and speakers. The sleek backsplash and bar front wall features Roman beige ledge stone. White Corian countertops in “witch hazel” color were selected to help balance the contrasting colors of the dark cabinetry and light ledge stone.
before & after
RESULT: “Our favorite part of the whole remodel is definitely the wet bar. We are so ecstatic to have a place to sing karaoke and have fun with our friends and family without ever leaving our home.”
THEATRE ROOM: Located just off of the lounge and wet bar room, this transformed area serves as a gaming center and theatre room. Coordinating with the wet bar, the new gas fireplace surround features the same stone used for the backsplash and bar wall. The matching cabinetry and flanking built-ins provide ample storage for board games and movies. The Kichler multi-light pendant brightens up the space and adds a modern elegance to the room. Stained wainscoting was installed to match the cabinetry in the theatre room and wet bar.
