During the March 14 national walkouk, Fishers Police Dept. added extra officers to the interiors and exteriors of Hamilton Southeastern and Fishers high schools as well as the junior high schools in the district to ensure student safety.

“When you think about HSE schools in general, it’s nearly 22,000 students and 1,500 staff. That’s larger than a lot of cities and towns in the state of Indiana,” Thompson said. “It’s a city within a city. We know that having a safe and secure environment is one of the most important aspects of learning, and we are truly committed to making sure that happens every day.”

The City of Fishers did not respond to a request for comment.

Mayor Scott Fadness said if an incident such as a school shooting was to occur, the city, police and schools are prepared.

“I think we are very aware of the fact of unfortunate trends in school violence are out there, and a lot of demographics look like Fishers - suburban, affluent communities,” Fadness said. “We have a positive working relationship with the schools that will hopefully lead to any thing bad from happening, God forbid anything were to happen, our team is already prepared in thinking about that day from an active shooter response to a kid posting a threat. We are prepared to deal with any variation of those scenarios.”

Fishers residents find love

“Things developed, and probably six months later he got me out on the dance floor at a fancy dance club and proposed,” Lori said. “I wanted to be with him but I didn’t want to get married that soon. We let it go another year and just kept getting better acquainted.”

The two were married Aug. 26, 2017 and honeymooned in Alaska. The octogenarians say they’re blessed to have found each other.

“We kind of feel like teenagers. We’re just having fun,” Lori said. “It’s crazy. I count my blessings every day.”

Two Fishers residents, who are both in their 80s, are provrelationships ing it’s never too late to find love. Lori and Ed Solinski met and fell in love thanks to a somewhat surprising source.

“After my husband passed I was just sitting around,” Lori said. “My girls told me I needed to get out of the house. They told me I wasn’t one to sit around every night.

So, one of them put me on match.com.”

Lori caught the eye of Ed, a widower, in March 2016.

“He saw me on there one time and emailed me,” Lori said. “I was very hesitant.

I told him we weren’t going to meet until we got acquainted on the phone. We talked for a couple weeks.”

After speaking on the phone, they finally met for lunch.

“I was a nervous wreck,” Lori said. “I hadn’t done this since I was a kid. I found out later he was a nervous wreck, too. We sat there for 2-1/2 hours. We found out we had so much in common. I had seven kids and he had six. He was a professor and I Ed and Lori1Solinski on their wedding day. ff_current_1_FINAL.qxp_Layout 1 3/19/18 9:36 AM Page was a high school teacher.”

County breaks ground on solar field project

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com On March 12, Hamilton County dignitaries broke ground on the $8 million solar project that will feature utilities 9,300 solar panels on building roofs at the Hamilton County Correctional Campus in Noblesville and on 3 acres on the east side of Ind. 37 near the Correctional Campus.

The project is expected to save Hamilton County approximately $25 million in utility expenses over the next 25 years. Currently, utilities are the county’s second-highest expense after employee salaries and benefits, according to Hamilton County Commissioner Christine Altman.

The county pays $1.6 million annually in utility bills for county facilities. The solar project will provide enough energy to power 38 percent of the jail complex and 100 percent of the health services building.

“This project isn’t about the right now, it’s about our future,” Steve Wood, Supt. of Hamilton County Buildings and Grounds, stated in a press release. “This project

will produce enough clean power to avoid greenhouse emissions equivalent to 10 million driven car miles. Plus, it will be a great learning tool for thousands of school kids right here in Hamilton County.”

Johnson-Melloh Solutions, the project contractor, will provide live web monitoring of the energy being saved by the solar project.

The project should be complete by late June. The county will make annual payments of $623,000 over 20 years at a 3 percent interest rate. County officials said utility savings generated from the project will pay the capital cost of the project in less than 12 years.

HSE adds new transportation director

By Noah Alatza • news@currentinfishers.com Hamilton Southeastern Schools recently hired Zach McKinney as the new director of transportation.

McKinney previously worked at Tippecanoe School Corp. and Education Clinton Central Schools.

He has worked as a teacher, assistant principal and principal.

After receiving his undergraduate degree from Purdue University, he earned a postgraduate degree from Indiana Wesleyan University.

McKinney said his main responsibilities at the previous school districts were overseeing the transportation departments.

“I had the biggest fear that once I joined administration, I would lose that student connection,” he said. “That’s why with transportation, with still being able to drive and see students, I can still keep that connection.”

With winter weather still occurring across the state, McKinney said drivers take precautions before students board

one of the district’s 300 buses.

“All of our drivers come in early on colder days to make sure everything goes as planned,” he said. “From making sure the windshields are defrosted to warming the buses up. I provide (the administration) with what information I see fit for weather-related situations.”

The driver shortage at HSE is significant. McKinney said at one point, 38 bus routes had to be filled. An average of 13 daily routes are unfilled. The district only has two permanent substitute drivers.

The district was awarded an Indiana transportation grant for nearly $1 million.

McKinney said the funds were applied to driver salaries, mechanical work and other related transportation needs Often, mechanics and other transportation staff, including McKinney, have to fill the void and drive bus routes.

However, for McKinney, the job is all part of working for a dedicated team focused on getting students to and from school safely.

Teacher’s kindness project saves dog

By Noah Alatza • news@currentinfishers.com Brooks School Elementary preschool teacher Tracey Mark never Education imagined a simple lesson plan would save a dog.

At the end of November 2017, Mark was teaching her morning preschoolers about the Thanksgiving season and the power of being grateful and thankful.

“We usually talk about things that make our hearts happy, and we used that concept with a number of items inside the classroom and school,” Mark said.

Enya Unzueta places a blan“In preschool ket over Zoey. (Submitted terms, we started talking photo) about pets, and we tried tying those things together with certain experiences.”

After reaching out to the Hamilton County Humane Society, Mark said the organization came to school with a dog. That’s when Mark said the perception of students changed.

“After talking about some of the things the (Humane Society) needs, we started a drive for them,” she said. “Families helped collect blankets, towels, food and treats to make the pets’ hearts happy.”

Her class collected two boxes of items for dogs and cats at the Humane Society.

“We integrated our study of pets with it,” she said. “Part of the lessons and activities that we did in the classroom were learning about pets and taking care of them. The kids loved the dog, and it put it into terms they may understand. They learned the importance that pets need somebody to love just like we do. We put it in terms of family, that this dog does not have a family, and that the person bringing her was just watching after her.”

The dog, Zoey, was surrendered to the Humane Society days before it was brought to the classroom.

During winter break, a family in one of Mark’s morning classes adopted Zoey.

“When she came here she was such a gentle, sweet, loving dog,” Mark said. “Who would’ve known this would come full circle?”

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Spurred by the realization there is no physical refuge for the homeless in Hamilton County, the philanthropy national organization Family Promise developed a local chapter to serve those in a homeless situation in the county.

Currently, FPOHC is searching for more congregations to serve as shelters for those in a homeless situation, and it is raising funds for a transportation van and a day center.

“Family Promise in general is an organization that uses congregations from around specific counties to house homeless children and their families,” co-chair Faith Jackson said. “So, we are looking for congregations in Hamilton County to do just that. Families in the area that are in a homeless situation are able to have hot meals and a place to stay, and that’s all done by volunteers from the local community and the congregations that host them.”

Congregations host three to four families for a week. Families arrive at the congregation on Sundays after service and are then transported by a 14-person van to another

congregation the following Sunday prior to services.

Once constructed, a day center will serve as a resource hub for families, such as providing computers and interview skills with resume-building opportunities.

FPOHC wants to raise $160,000 and is looking at applying for grants and organizing some fundraisers. The organization is based in Noblesville but serves all of Hamilton County.

“There’s nothing in Hamilton County currently to address the homeless situation of children and their families,” Jackson said.

“There are shelters for domestic violence, but there’s nothing for homelessness in Hamilton County, there’s no solution.”

Sheriff candidates detail aspirations at chamber event

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Area residents heard from Hamilton County Sheriff candidates in politics a forum-like setting at the March 13 Westfield Chamber of Commerce Coffee with the Chamber event.

Candidates Bill Clifford, Dennis Quakenbush, Eddie Moore and Mitch Russell answered questions from chamber President Jack Russell about the sherrif’s race.

Questions covered what the candidates thought their greatest career accomplishments were, why the race was important to the people in Hamilton County and their vision for the department.

Russell, who serves as security manager for Riverview Health, comes from a law enforcement background of 41 years.

“I have been very lucky to have many opportunities in management, budgeting, hiring and terminations and have been very successful at that,” he said. “That’s the greatest assets I can give to this county.”

Clifford said the reason the race is important is because voters elect the one to oversee the safety of the community.

“You have loved ones at home. The sher-

iff is the constitutional law enforcement officer that you all elect. You choose who is going to be the top cop in your community,” said Clifford, a sergeant in the HCSO. “I spent more than a year talking to citizens in their homes, in businesses and in clubs. We need to be connected to you, and I hope you can see I’m willing to do that.”

Quakenbush, who serves as captain of the patrol division for the HCSO, said the race was important to residents because they don’t want more crime in the county.

“This is consistently one of the greatest places to live in the nation, I’m proud of everything we’ve done and put in place,” Quakenbush said. “We attract great businesses to this community, and we don’t want crime to creep up from Marion County.

We want someone who is passionate and tough on crime.”

Quakenbush also said the jail project was important because Hamilton County inmates are less likely to re-offend upon release than the national average.

Moore said he is proud of founding the Hamilton County Chaplaincy program. He is a commander of one of the HCSO’s night shift patrol divisions.

“My service to the community through

Christ has been very, very important and led me to even deeper service to the community,” Moore said. “This is where we chose to live. I chose to live here because the people of Hamilton County are wonderful people, and being a police officer here has been just

a fantastic ride.”

The candidates will participate in a forum hosted by the Fiscal Conservatives of Hamilton County at 7 p.m. April 17 at Ivy Tech, 300 N. 17th St., Noblesville.

“My Sinuses Are Bothering Me”

“My sinuses are bothering me”! It is a phrase we hear all the time throughout the year. But what does this actually mean? People use the phrase to mean that they have nasal congestion, facial pressure, nasal drainage, teeth pain, headache, or even fatigue. These symptoms could be a result of actual sinus infections, but also could be from seasonal allergies or structural abnormalities within the nasal cavity, such as a deviated septum.

So how do we, as physicians, help identify the cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan for our patients? It always starts with taking a detailed medical history and then performing a careful examination of a patient’s anatomy. A trial of appropriate medications can be followed by allergy testing and/or a CT scan of the sinuses if symptoms persist. Nasal surgery, such as a Septoplasty, can be very helpful when nasal airflow is affected. Sinus surgery becomes an option when a sinus CT scan shows blocked sinuses after medical therapy.

Northside ENT, a leading provider of med-

ical services for patients with conditions affecting the Ear, Nose, and Throat since 1977, is pleased to offer a new IN-OFFICE treatment for chronic sinusitis. Balloon Sinuplasty (also known as Balloon Sinus Dilation or “BSD”) can be performed under a local anesthetic in our office in a quiet and comfortable setting. Patients who qualify for the procedure would notice significantly less pain and bleeding and a faster return to normal activity than those who undergo the more traditional sinus surgery in an operating room.

Patients followed for 2 years after the procedure have similar outcomes and success when compared to traditional sinus surgery.

However since sinus tissue is not actually (Advertisement)

removed, there is minimal bleeding, much less pain, and absolutely no need for packing.

Mike Reed underwent Balloon Sinus Dilation earlier this year with Dr. Youkilis and had this to say: “During the procedure, I was fully awake and experienced only very minor discomfort a time or two. Afterwards, I returned home without any real pain and went to work the next day. Since the surgery, I have felt better than I have in years and would recommend the procedure to anyone with chronic sinus issues.”

Please contact us for an appointment (or ask your physician to make a referral) if you think you might be suffering from nasal congestion or chronic sinusitis.

“Dr. Bob Youkilis is an Ear, Nose, and Throat physician with Northside ENT. He and his partners (Drs. Scott Hackett, Jeff Beach, and Seth Bruggers) are located at 12065 Old Meridian in Carmel, 46032. Visit their website (www.northsideent.com) or call 317-8445656 for more information.”

Making a Comeback Coaches from opposite teams surprise injured HSE basketball player

By Jessica Hoover news@currentinfishers.com Following a pair of losses in early January, the Hamilton cover story Southeastern boys varsity basketball team was running some intense drills during practice to get back on the winning track.

Midway through the Jan. 10 practice, senior Josh Fugate collided with another teammate, who fell on top of him, causing a T11 vertebra fracture in Fugate’s spine. His parents, Dan and Susie Fugate, were notified by phone and immediately rushed to his side.

“When I realized how severe it was, my first question was, ‘Did he have feeling in his legs?’” Susie said. “We know some other kids that have been injured, and they have lifelong ramifications. I was just really concerned about him not being able to walk.”

Josh was in severe pain. To get him onto the stretcher, paramedics had to give him seven doses of a heavy narcotic. He was admitted to St. Vincent Hospital on 86th Street and, despite the severity, doctors told him he was very lucky, that it could have been a lot worse. Initiatlly, doctors weren’t sure if he would walk again, but after a couple days in the hospital, he was released and was able to wear a brace.

The day of Jan. 10 had already been stressful for the Fugates because Josh’s brother, Jake, had his tonsils removed that morning. The family refrigerator also broke down. Despite the bad luck, Josh said he is

very grateful for the outpouring of support from his friends, family, school, team and community.

“I want to specifically thank my three best friends, Jakob, Reed and Trent, and also my girlfriend, Sabrina,” Josh said. “They really stepped up and were there for me when I really needed the outside support.

They’re really keeping me positive and keeping my smile going and keeping me happy. The support from friends has really been more than I’ve ever imagined.”

Josh said HSE teachers and staff also have been accommodating. He missed three weeks of school, and even now is only able to take one class per day, but he is still on track to graduate in May with an honors diploma.

Teammates supported him by visiting him at the hospital. Some even cooked dinners for the Fugate family during their difficult time. Even while Josh was injured, he continued to go to home games to cheer his teammates on. Inspired by his dedication, HSE head coach Brian Satterfield planned a special recognition for Josh on Senior Night Feb. 16. Satterfield contacted the opposite team’s head coach, Steve Lynch from Brownsburg High School, to ask if he would let Josh score the first two points of the game, and Lynch said he was more than willing to do it. “(At Senior Night) they positioned Josh underneath HSE’s basket, and they allowed one of Josh’s senior teammates to pass it to another senior teammate and then pass the ball to Josh and allow him to score,”

Dan said. “It was all orchestrated, choreographed, set up, and they left it wide open with no one on the defense. There wasn’t a dry eye in the place after the whole event happened. It was very emotional. When he scored the basket, he got a standing ovation.”

Josh said he was grateful to both coaches and teams for coming together to make his Senior Night special by including him in the game.

“Having the support of my coaches and teammates and people that care about me, it really said a lot about HSE basketball and the character of the team and coaches,” Josh said.

Fugate’s Future Although surgery is still a possibility, Josh Fugate is expected to make a full recovery. He plans to attend Indiana University but won’t play basketball.

“Once upon a time, (basketball) was something I wanted to do in college,” Josh said. “College gets harder with studying, and basketball gets more intense, and I feel like it would be hard to juggle the two at the same time. I feel like I would be happier just being a student. My injury kind of put everything in perspective for me, and it grounded me a lot and made me realize that basketball isn’t everything. I’m grateful that I can still walk. It’s been fun, though, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.”

Josh Fugate takes the first shot during Senior Night Feb. 16.

Josh Fugate pauses with his parents, Dan and Susie, on Senior Night.

(Spring) breaking bad

o b s e r v ation Getting prioritized

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker As one of the more glorious characters, if in name only, of famed 16th-century English playwright and wicked-smart social commentator William Shakespeare, Dick the Butcher proclaims in the 1591 play “Henry VI”: “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.” Disputed for years as to whether Mr. Butcher intended to do away with the ilk of those who’d represented his spouse in a contentious divorce proceeding, or if the line, specifically aimed at corrupt barristers, meant to separate the good from the bad, it is clear that a priority order is being proclaimed and that such an order demands a first and definitive step.

We humans maintain full and complex lives filled with activities. We survive by adroit management of both the critical and the trivial. The simple choice to stand still at a curb to await the expected passing of a coming city bus, while in itself almost absent-minded, would, if improperly executed, significantly change or even end our lives.

If the simple is crucial, could we imagine that the complex is inconsequential?

Sure, one must find balance between these priorities. Yet, is equilibrium sufficient? Can we successfully lead our lives absent strict priorities? What comes first, above all others? Then, is there a second?

Can the second replace the first – even once or only for a moment? No doubt, some priorities will change with the season as others stand immovable in the stream. Still, are we amply informed about the arrangement of our own primacies? Do we follow a plan? If so, what is our strategy? Is it current? Do we order our day to meet its demands? Or, would it be more honest to admit we react as the world comes at us?

Should our priority be getting prioritized?

READER ’ S V I E W Incorrectly charged for wheel tax Editor, In Sept. 2016, the Fishers City Council affirmed ordinances 091916 B&C wherein it approved a $25 per vehicle wheel or excise tax on vehicles registered in the City of Fishers to take effect Jan. 1, 2018.

In those intervening years, from 2016 to present, city managers couldn’t seem to come up with an accurate method to identify for the BMV which vehicles to tax and which vehicles were not registered within the city limits. The simplistic method chosen for the BMV by the City of Fishers was if you have a ZIP Code, you obviously must live within the city limits and therefore you obviously are subject to those added taxes for every vehicle registered. The corollary of this logic is that if your ZIP Code is 46055 McCordsville Post Office, your vehicles are not subject to those taxes, even though your property is within the city limits. The fallacy of that criteria is that only those vehicles registered to owners living within the city liits are subject to those taxes, not vehicles in the numerous areas in and around Fishers that have not been annexed into the city limits, irrespective of their postal address.

A refund request for the incorrectly charged municipal vehicle excise or wheel tax, to the BMV Central Office Finance re-

sulted in State Form 56288. Unfortunately, one of the requirements of this refund request is that you submit “proof” that your address is outside the city limits of Fishers.

When I requested some method of “proof” that a particular address was or was not within the city limits, the only option offered by the city seemed to be the GIS base map of Fishers, which shows neighborhoods that were in the un-incorporated areas without addresses, etc. I showed this map to the BMV folks and they indicated that it was not sufficient “proof” that a specific address was outside of the city limits. One option for “proof” that appeared acceptable to the BMV was a copy of the state form 53569, which is sent with your annual property tax bill. In table No. 3, “Gross Property Tax Distribution Amounts” is the taxing authority labeled “City.” If your property is outside the city limits, the amount will be zero dollars. Sending a copy of this form and the completed application for municipal vehicle excise or wheel tax refund should result in getting your money back. Let’s all hope that between now and next year, the City of Fishers and the BMV can finally determine an accurate method to enact this tax bill so that this effort doesn’t become repetitive.

Me last week: Yay! Our oldest is coming home from college!

Me today: Yay! Our oldest is going back to college!

Am I right? I love my IU humor freshman, but after nine days of G’s non-stop talking and eating, I’m ready for a return to normalcy (history buffs, whose presidential campaign slogan did I just co-opt?).

First of all, the foot traffic here has increased tenfold. Our house has become the place to watch basketball, play video games and bake blackberry pies for apparently all spring breakers in the tri-county area.

This means additional runs to Meijer for milk, Red Baron pizzas and butter, and an everlasting tower of dishes in the kitchen.

Unlike Ike, me no like (boom! I just dropped another iconic election jingle on you!).

We’ve also had to manage several fights over the third car. Though technically G’s, our high school juniors have been using it for work and practice. I’ve suddenly been thrust into carpool mode again, forced to orchestrate pick-up and drop-off times and navigate a ridiculous number of roundabouts. Happy days are not here again.

Finally, of all ours kids, G talks the most, the loudest and the closest. He loves to sidle his 6-foot-3 frame next to me and discuss politics, sports and his accounting class. Cute, I know, but I’ve gotten use to short texts and the occasional call for money.

So yes, I’m thrilled G is going back today.

I need to make the remaining Wilson family great again (yep, I went there).

Peace out.

The Wolfsies are moving. We checked out lots of places. In one neighborhood, we saw a Commander Avenue, humor Commander Way, Commander Circle and Commander Court.

Did they run out of nautical terms right after they named the development Commander Point? In another community, we saw Sheila Road, Shelly Court and Shirley Way. We presently live on a street with a long Indian name. My son was 10 before he could pronounce it and 17 before he could spell it, so I used to tell him that if he had to call 911 for me, it would be easiest just to drag me out to the highway.

One thing we learned is to never ask for directions within a housing development.

Even the people who live there are clueless.

“Excuse me, can you tell me where Ernest Hemingway Drive is?”

“Uh, let’s see. This is Nathaniel Hawthorne Lane and the next left is Herman Melville Court. Or maybe it’s Henry Thoreau Terrace. Are you sure Ernest Hemingway Drive is around here? It may be over in the 20th-century author section across the

street.”

People don’t know the names of nearby streets because they don’t know people who live close by. All their friends live in classier places, maybe named after French writers or books, although I wouldn’t want to live on Les Miserables Drive.

We once gave up trying to find a friend’s new home. After an hour, we asked a guy walking his dog, “Excuse me, can you tell us how to get to the main road?”

“Sorry, but I can’t help you. I’ve only lived here a year. Would you like directions to the pool?”

“No, we don’t want to go to the pool. We want to get out of here.”

“OK, let’s try this: Turn left on the street that’s named after that guy who wrote “The Prince and the Pauper,” then a right on the road named after the man who…what’s his name? He wrote ‘For Whom the Bell Tolls.’”

We got home at 3 a.m. What a novel experience.

Faith-based automotive company wants to expand to Fishers

no-hassle sales experience. Besides servicing cars, Wall said the company also places a strong emphasis on helping the communities they serve. Nationally, the company contributes to many charities and ministries and encourages local franchisees to take an active role in making a positive impact in their community.

Since 1982, Christian Brothers Automotive has expanded to more Wall than 170 locations in 25 states. The company plans on targeting 20 new locations this year.

“Our goal is to inform customers in Fishers, consult with them and give them the keys in the decision-making process on what needs to happen with regular maintenance and corrective maintenance,” Wall said.

Christian Brothers Automotive officials said they have growth firmly planted roots in faith, honesty and trust and now want to branch into Fishers.

The car company’s mission is to “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Founder and CEO Mark Carr opened the first Christian Brothers Automotive in 1982 in Mission Bend, Texas, with the goal, he said, of providing an uncommonly great experience for customers throughout the nation.

The company is seeking local entrepreneurs to expand the Christian Brothers Automotive franchise throughout Indianapolis and the surrounding suburbs.

“We prefer local business leaders who are connected to the community to join our franchise system in order to make sure our values and mission are a fit for local consumers, and we’re looking forward to finding those folks in Fishers,” said Josh Wall, chief development officer.

Christian Brothers Automotive officials said Fishers is an ideal place to find franchise partners and open additional Christian Brothers Automotive locations.

“As Fishers continues to revitalize and develop its downtown area and grow as a market, more people will be looking for car care they can trust to get to work every day,” Wall said.

Wall said Christian Automotive Brothers shops feel more like home and provide a

Cutting through the hype Commentary by Dr. Richard Mason On a regular basis, patients in my office ask me which vitamins wellness and supplements are good and which ones are not.

Based on my training and experience, I have come up with criteria to pick out the best supplements.

Listed below are suggestions when purchasing supplements: -Avoid proprietary blends. This is a fancy way of not being upfront about how much of each item you are consuming. Most companies will not share this with you when called and asked. A good supplement will list each ingredient and how much is there.

-Avoid any minerals that are linked to oxides, such as magnesium oxide or zinc oxide. These are very poorly absorbed. Instead, look for minerals linked to citrate or mineral chelates. Most store-bought brands contain oxides.

-As a general rule, the shorter the ingre-

Netolicky’s book details Indiana’s love affair with ABA, Pacers

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com It started with a little reminiscing about glory days with two old friends.

Bob Netolicky, betbasketball ter known as “Neto,” was a member of the Indiana Pacers in their inaugural 1967-68 season in the American Basketball Association. Dick Tinkham was one of the Pacers’ original co-owners and legal counsel for the team. Tinkham served on the merger committee. The ABA folded in 1976 and the Pacers were one of four teams that merged into the NBA. “Dick and I were talking four or five years ago, and a book had come out about the ABA, and he said none of this is right,” said Netolicky, who was a longtime Carmel resident before moving to Noblesville in 2013. “He said it’s all hearsay or thirdperson. He started telling me some stories that I had never heard.”

Netolicky, Tinkham and NBC Sports racing reporter Robin Miller have co-authored a recently released book, “We Changed the Game.”

One story in particular that Netolicky had never heard was that if the Pacers had lost a seventh game in a first round playoff series against Kentucky in 1969, the team would have folded the next day.

Instead, the Pacers won that game and another round to reach the finals and were able to gain more investors.

“I was shocked,” Netolicky said. “(Tinkham) kept saying we got to write a book and tell what really happened.”

Tinkham said he didn’t want to write a book like all the other ones on the ABA, which he described as long, drawn-out press clippings of games.

“He said, ‘Let’s have some fun and tell the real stories,” Netolicky said. “We started with two or three different writers, and it just dawned on me that Robin was with us since Day 1. He started out as a cub reporter with the team in ’69.”

As a young reporter at The Indianapolis

Robin Miller, left, and Bob Netolicky co-authored “We Changed the Game” with Dick Tinkham.

Star, Miller often traveled with the team and wrote features. Netolicky nicknamed him “Jimmy Olsen” after the young reporter in “Superman.”

“So, after about four years, we have a book,” Netolicky said. “It’s a fun read. Dick was worried about stepping on people’s toes, but I said, ‘Dick, everyone is dead.’”

There are of course some stories about Bobby “Slick” Leonard, who took over as Pacers coach in the second season and guided them to three ABA championships.

Leonard, a Carmel resident, is a longtime Pacers radio broadcaster.

Netolicky said Leonard was known for his colorful language.

“Even (Pacers owner) Herb Simon said you never walked into the locker room and hear Slick say, ‘Golly, gee whiz,’” Netolicky said.

book signing When: Noon to 2 p.m., March 31 Where: Bruno’s Shoebox, 50 N. 9th St., Noblesville

Among those recommending the book are broadcaster Bob Costas, who started his career broadcasting the Spirits of St. Louis.

“There’s something about the ABA, the Coliseum, the red, white and blue ball and how Indianapolis embraced the Pacers,” Miller said. “That was the first team our city ever embraced. People have such a soft spot in their heart for the ABA, especially the Pacers, that it transcends time.

From my perspective, it’s a history about how the Pacers claimed the city. The city got its makeover, thanks to the Pacers.”

Ten percent of the book’s proceeds benefit the Dropping Dimes Foundation, a nonprofit that assists former ABA players and their families.

IWS to present ‘Among the Trees’ editorial@youarecurrent.com The Indiana Wind Symphony will present “Among the Trees” at 7 p.m. April 8 at The Palladium, the Center for the Performing Arts, in Carmel.

“This will be Kelleen’s fourth or fifth performance with us,” IWS Music Director Charlie Conrad said. “She’s been one of our pretty regular soloists. ‘Rhapsody in Blue’ is the only one that doesn’t have a tie-in to trees.”

Conrad said this is the first concert theme devoted to songs about trees.

“We wanted to do the tune, ‘Wind in the Willows,’ and we were going to do ‘Pines of Rome,’ so we took the link off of those,” Conrad said. “We have a couple of new pieces we’re really excited by and a couple that we’ve played before and really enjoyed.

‘Pines of Rome’ is going to be the finale.”

Commentary by Mark Johson Where to go: Sushiyama Where it Is: 2321 Conner St., Noblesville When it’s open: Monday through Thursday 11 a.m.-2 p.m., 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday 11 a.m.-2 p.m., 4:30 p.m.-10 p.m.

Mark’s take: Small, warm and intimate is the best way to describe the atmosphere of Sushiyama. This is a restaurant that offers a great dining experience in a colorful setting with Japanese decor.

What to get: I’ll admit that I wanted to sample everything on the menu, but that wasn’t plausible. So, after the requisite deliberation, I decided on the hibachi shrimp. I also tried the soft shell crab as an appetizer.

Sushiyama is a Japanese restaurant with sushi options.

‘Eva’ set for world premiere

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Indianapolis filmmaker Ted Green knew little about Holocaust survivor Eva Mozes Kor before hearing her speak. film “A buddy of mine at Butler had been talking to me about Eva for a long time, but I kept blowing him off because I was so wrapped up in my Crispus Attucks (film) project,” Green said. “Finally, this is almost exactly two years ago, he called me and said she was speaking that night at Clowes Hall and he had tickets for me, pretty much demanding I come over. I did, and I daresay, like everyone else who sees Eva speak for the first time, I was instantly mesmerized, but not just by what she was saying; equally so by the hold she had on the crowd. Two thousand people were just staring raptly at this little blue octogenarian in the front of the room. Right then I knew there was something special about her, and I felt this visceral need to tell her story. Two years later, I’m still held rapt by her.”

Green and Indianapolis resident Mika Brown, along with WFYI, co-produced the documentary “Eva,” which will make its world premiere at 6:30 p.m. April 5 at Clow-

es Hall in Indianapolis. Kor, 84, and her twin sister, Miriam, who died in 1993, survived Auschwitz and Nazi Dr. Josef Mengele’s human experiments on twins.

Green said it’s critical that Kor’s story is shared.

“Not simply because of her connection with the Holocaust, which must never be forgotten, but also because she stands as a seminal example of the power a single person can have to make this a better world,” Green said. “I believe that’s what Eva stands for above all. She’s an inspiration, particularly to young people. We very much hope this documentary takes on national and even international legs.”

Summer Concert Series set

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Noblesville Parks and Recreation Dept.’s Summer Concert Series will feature some old favorites as noblesville well as newcomers.

The Thursday night free series at Dillon Park and Forest Park was recently announced.

The lineup at Dillon Park, 6351 Midland Lane, includes May 31: Big 80’s Band; June 7: NKG; June 14: Saddlebrook; June 21: Living Proof; June 28: Jai Baker; and July 5: Endless Summer Band. Forest Park (701 Cicero Road): July 12: Bigg Country Band; July 26: Cash on Fire; and Aug. 2: The Doo! Band.

“It’s been nine shows for as long as I can remember,” said Mike Hoffmeister, Noblesville Parks assistant director.

Hoffmeister said a special event, not part of the series, will be announced for July 19 at a later date.

“Living Proof has been here for a number of years and they always draw a large crowd,” Hoffmeister said. “Endless Summer is a band we’ve had before and they’re also very popular. They were here two years ago.”

Spectators visit Dillon Park’s Summer Concert Series. (Submitted photo)

So was The Doo! Band under its former name of Zanna-Doo. Hoffmeister said the department doesn’t like to bring all the same bands every year.

“We like to mix it up every couple of years, or every year, for that matter,” Hoffmeister said. “A staffer saw NKG at another venue and really liked what they did.”

Blueprint for Improvement: Laundry room and master bath upgrades Commentary by Larry Greene

Before

After solutions

After

The goal for the master bathroom remodel was to get better utilization out of the floorplan, while the goal for the laundry room was to find a solution to gain more space.

1. The largest change in the master bathroom came from removing the existing framed shower and replacing it with a custom tile shower with frameless glass. The shower now appears much larger than it was before and allows for more natural light.

2. New cabinetry was added to the vanity, creating more space for storage.

3. The tub was replaced with a tub that had a much more contemporary design, and the filler was relocated, opening up the deck.

4. Space was taken from the master closet to create a new laundry room on the second level of the home. Cabinetry and space to hang clothing was added above the washer and dryer.

5. Visit our blog for more details.

Background info: This home in Westfield in the Merrimac neighborhood was built in 1999 and had not been updated.

The homeowners wanted to make this home a more functional place to raise their young family.

Before problems The master bathroom had plenty of space but lacked functional design elements.

The space appeared much smaller than it actually was because of the lack of storage and natural lighting. The laundry room was confined to a small space with minimal storage, making laundry difficult for the young parents.

Remembering the agony of Jesus Commentary by Don Knebel Christians visit Jerusalem this time of year to connect with places associated with the Easter story. One travel such place enshrines a rock claimed to be where Jesus prayed before his death.

According to the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, after the Last Supper, Jesus went to a place called Gethsemane on the Mount of Olives and prayed that his life be spared if that was God’s will. Without naming the place, the Gospel of Luke says Jesus was in agony while praying before his arrest.

Saying nothing about praying, the Gospel of John says Jesus was arrested in a garden.

Combining these accounts, Christians believe Jesus prayed in agony in the Garden of Gethsemane. No account mentions a rock.

Christians have identified various locations on the Mount of Olives as Gethsemane. In the 12th century, Crusaders built a chapel near the foot of the Mount

Basilica of the Agony in Jerusalem. (Photo by Don Knebel)

of Olives next to a grove of olive trees they associated with Gethsemane. Some Christians later became convinced that the olive trees existed during the time of Jesus and that Jesus had knelt to pray on an outcropping of bedrock near the

abandoned Crusader chapel. In the 1920s, Franciscans built the neoclassical Basilica of the Agony around the flat rock, which extends above the floor in front of the high altar. The church’s interior is intentionally dark to reflect Jesus’ agony. Twelve small domes are painted blue on their undersides to evoke the night sky under which Jesus prayed. The exterior includes four groups of columns, each topped by the statue of a Gospel writer displaying a verse leading to beliefs about Gethsemane. A colorful mosaic on the façade above the columns depicts Jesus mediating between God and humanity. Because donations to build the church came from many countries, it is commonly known as the Church of All Nations.

The slippery slope of fancy roof parties

Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

I hope somebody invites me to a party on a roof someday. This not-quite-bucket-list dream of mine would grammar guy make me feel like I have finally achieved a (literally) high social status. I can picture myself swirling a martini, talking about horses and stocks with some guy wearing a monocle—it would be so luxurious ... unless, of course, that roof party happened on a sloped roof.

Inevitably, someone (probably Karl, the mailman) would slip, and I’d have to burst into action, catching poor Karl as he dangled precariously from the edge of the roof.

The lesson here? Make sure your party roof is a flat one before you book the venue.

Dangling modifiers are equally as scary as dangling mailmen. To understand what a dangling modifier is (and why we should avoid them), let’s start with understanding modifiers. A modifier is a word or phrase that adds description to another word or phrase. When used correctly, you’ll find modifiers right next to the words they’re describing.

When you see a dangling modifier lurking in a sentence, the sentence will be confusing. Dangling modifiers often show up at the very beginning or end of a sentence: After spending a week on the solar pan-
