St. George church conducts Ladies Extravaganza May 10

By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com According to Shared Hope International, the average age a child FUNDRAISER enters the sex trafficking industry is 14 to 16, when the child is too young and naive to understand what is happening.

St. George Orthodox Christian Church will hold a Ladies Extravaganza at 5 p.m. May 10 to raise money for Ascent 121, a local organization that provides advocacy and recovery services for teen survivors. It also raises money and awareness about the sex-trafficking industry.

“This is our second year hosting the event,” said Liza Nahas, church ministry team member. “Our primary goal was to raise awareness of sex trafficking in central Indiana and what Ascent 121 does. Our second goal was to raise some funds, which we were able to do.

Finally, our last goal was to have some fun while doing some good.”

Admission is $30 at the door. The evening includes food, wine, church tours, door prizes, a silent auction, mini manicures, chair massages, skincare tutorials and makeup

application. Vendors will sell items such as Bloody Mary mix, clothing, natural skincare products, hand-picked teas, jewelry, tinctures, decor and handbags.

“Guests can get chair massages from Knead Therapy,” Nahas said. “We’ll have some food and live music. It’s just going to be a fun evening for women to come out.”

Local florist Molly and Myrtle will offer a floral arrangement class for an additional $30 fee.

“Guests will learn how to put a beautiful floral arrangement together,” Nahas said.

“The fresh blooms and vase will be provided.

You do have to register in advance because space is limited.”

Ascent 121 will be on-site to offer additional information about its services. Attendees will be able to write notes of encouragement for victims.

“We had a really great turnout last year,” Nahas said. “We’d really like to exceed that this year. We hope those who attended last year will attend this year but also bring a friend.”

Vet takes Indy Honor Flight trip

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com On April 13, U.S. Marine veteran Daniel Quinn, 90, had the opportunity HONOR of a lifetime. He was among the veterans in an Indy Honor Flight, which flies veterans to Washington, D.C., to view the war memorials built in their honor.

Quinn’s daughter, Sandy Burton, said when she was growing up, the family wasn’t aware of the history Quinn was part of.

“My dad enlisted in the Marine reserves with a friend who convinced him to do that for a little extra money, and the next thing they knew they were heading to Korea in a war,” Burton said. “They didn’t really get any boot camp or anything. They pretty much learned to shoot their guns on the ship on the way over.”

Quinn was in Korea a short time and fought in the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, better known as “The Frozen Chosin,” in which a combined 30,000 American and United Nations forces were surrounded by more than 120,000 Chinese soldiers and had to fight their way out in bitter cold temperatures.

“The war goes on, and he comes back home and basically just goes back to work.

None of us knew any of this history,” Burton said. “He didn’t ever talk about it, but I

her dad an opportunity to be around other veterans.

“It’s really an emotional day. They did such a great job with the veterans in transporting them,” she said. “It was really an amazing day. He loved every minute of it.”

Quinn and Burton live in Fishers.

“We got to Washington, D.C., and landed and exited plane, and there were, I couldn’t even tell you, how many people there cheering for (the veterans) and shaking their hands and welcoming them to D.C.,” Burton said.

Guard wins state championship

By Jessica Hoover news@currentinfishers.com The Fishers High School Open Winter Guard recently ACCOMPLISHMENT won first place in the Indiana High School Color Guard Association State Championships March 16 and the Winter Guard International World Championships April 6.

From January to April, the guard prepared for the competition by rehearsing three to four days a week for three hours a session.

“It’s remarkable that three years ago they took a team of 18 and transformed it into two color guards, and one of those color guards won a state title and a national title within three years,” said Chad Kohler, director of athletic bands at Fishers High School. “I just wanted to say that I’m extremely proud and extremely blessed to have a guard staff and a guard team that is invested in the totality of the program at Fishers band.”

For the state and world championships, the guard performed the song, “Abraham,

Martin, John and Bobby” by Rosaleen Eastman. FHS Color Guard Director Kylee Hubbard said the performance focused on the lives of Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., John F. Kennedy and Robert Kennedy.

“All of these people had a common dream that a state of love for everyone could exist, and they had the courage to give up their lives to fight for everyone, especially the people that equality or justice wasn’t given to,” Hubbard said. “It’s so easy for everyone to lose an empathetic understanding for another human being and their right to live. So, this show and this song was just to show that everyone has that right to a good life.”

Hubbard attributes the team’s success to its collective work ethic.

“It’s not just their maturity and sophistication in their performance, but the way they approach struggle and hardship is what has made them stand out so much to me,” Hubbard said. “They’re an incredibly fiery group of kids who are eager to grow when times get tough.”

Kousen and Clifford were awarded a Medal of Honor for their actions Jan. 28, when they responded to a report of an attempted suicide in the area of 156th Street and Prairie Baptist Road. A female had reportedly cut her wrists and was losing consciousness. Kousen, Clifford and a Noblesville Police Dept. officer responded to the call. Upon arriving, the NPD officer and Kousen applied tourniquets to her arms and Clifford applied direct pressure. The actions of the three men allowed the medics to immediately administer fluids and other life-saving measures instead of having to first stop the bleeding. The victim is expected to survive. The Medal of Honor may be presented to members of the sheriff’s office who, through an extraordinary effort, attempt to or contribute to the saving of a human life. Additionally, when death of the victim seems imminent, the member’s actions significantly assist the life-saving effort. (Submitted photo)

Why local elections are critical Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Why vote? You’re only one person. Is it really worth it to take time out of your busy Tuesday to wait in line at your neighborhood precinct to cast a ballot for a ELECTION few people you’ve never met?

Absolutely.

The best-kept secret about local government is that it affects your daily life far more than you probably realize.

Off the top of my head, local elected officials are responsible for making decisions about our roads, schools, taxes, police and fire departments, parks, housing, sewers, snow removal and public transportation. If any of those items seem important to you, then you should vote.

While I just listed a nuts-and-bolts scope of municipal government areas of oversight, our local elected leaders also are largely responsible for the direction of our cities.

These men and women cast vision for the types of cities we aspire to be in 5, 10 and even 20 years down the road.

These decisions will affect our lives as well as our children’s lives for the foreseeable future. Not only do mayors and city councilors handle the unglamorous, day-to-day duties of running our towns and cities, but they are responsible for shaping the soul of our communities.

Please don’t dismiss my arguments as merely a “Schoolhouse Rock” civics lesson or as an idealistic exercise in wishful thinking. I fully buy into the idea that being aware of local candidates and issues is one of the best ways to help create the community in which you want to live.

The fact of the matter is we had excellent turnout in the general election in last November’s midterm elections; 58.4 percent of registered voters in Hamilton County cast a ballot. That’s pretty impressive, yet only a fraction of the people who showed up in 2018 also voted in our last mayoral and city council primary elections in 2015. For instance, in Noblesville (where I live), around 5,400 people decided

the 2015 Republican mayoral primary, which essentially was the general election. Contrast that number with last year’s midterm general elections, when nearly 25,000 out of Noblesville’s 43,000 eligible residents voted. Similarly, out of more than 70,000 registered voters in Carmel, only 14,000 voters cast votes in a contested mayoral primary race in 2015, while 44,000 Carmel voters participated in November 2018.

Fun fact: in Indiana, you can choose whether you want a Democratic or Republican ballot in a primary, regardless of your self-identified party affiliation. So, even if you don’t consider yourself a Republican, you can vote in the Republican primary. Also, early voting makes it so easy to vote at a convenient time that will avoid any Election Day lines.

That’s pretty great, if you ask me.

Have I convinced you yet? If not, I have one more ace up my sleeve. Queue the sound of a bald eagle screeching majestically while a Corvette revs its V8 engine and “The Star-Spangled Banner” blares over the P.A. system at a minor league baseball game on dollar hot dog night.

Why vote in local elections? Because you can — because it’s your right as an American citizen. One thing that makes our country remarkable is that it puts its future in the hands of its people. You can have a voice through your vote. You’ve probably heard people say, “If you don’t vote, you can’t complain.” I believe this is true not only for presidential contests, but also for municipal, off-off-year elections like the upcoming May 7 primary. Help decide the future of your city by exercising your right to vote.

Chris Hamon has been baking bread for six years. (Submitted photos)

Chris Hamon will use his $12,000 Lilly Endowment Teacher Fellowship Program grant to travel to Italy and refine his breadmaking skills.

PURSUING PASSIONS Two HSE Schools teachers to use $12,000 grant

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Two Hamilton Southeastern Schools teachers were awarded COVER STORY $12,000 grants from the Lilly Endowment Teacher Creativity Fellowship Program.

Sand Creek Intermediate fifth-grade teacher Chris Hamon and Fishers High School English teacher Phillip Albonetti will use their grants this summer for dramatically different purposes.

The Teacher Creativity Fellowship Program is designed for teachers to renew their commitment to teaching by allowing them to pursue their dreams and passions.

Hamon plans to travel to Italy refine his bread-baking skills. He’s been baking bread for six years.

“Italy makes bread differently, depending on the region,” Hamon said. “I don’t know if that’s because historically they’re always fighting with each other, but you go to Tuscany and they don’t put salt in their bread.

Florence doesn’t, either, but all these other places in Italy do. I want to explore, to go to different regions and see how they make different types of bread there in those regions.”

Hamon began baking bread as an undergraduate student after he spoke to a friend who said he baked bread every weekend.

Hamon got a job working at Great Harvest Bread Co. and, after leaving the job, didn’t

bake bread again until about six years ago.

“We went to Italy on our honeymoon. We got back and then (my wife’s) father sent me a bread recipe and said, ‘I want bread like this,’” he said. “I made the bread and just got addicted to making it, started making pizza and baking to making whole-wheat bread weekly for family, gave loaves to friends, Christmas gifts for friends.”

Hamon will be in Italy from June 2 to July 5. His wife and 3-year-old child are going with him.

They will travel from Tuscany to Umbria to Puglia and end in Sicily.

At his first stop, the person they will stay with has a wood-fire oven. Hamon will make bread and pizza there. In Puglia, he will learn Altamura bread, a large loaf of soft bread unique to the area. In Sicily, he will take a cooking course.

Hamon uses cooking as a way to teach his students.

“In class, I made bread for my students last year and talked about decomposers and yeast being a natural decomposer,” Hamon said.

Albonetti will be doing something a bit different with his grant.

“Normally, folks get the grant to travel abroad, but mine is the opposite. I am staying here,” Albonetti said. “It’s to get me time to finish a book I’ve had percolating in my brain. I’ve written about a fifth of it, and it’s been on my brain for three to four years, and

the grant is for money for my kids to go to day care three days a week for eight to nine weeks over the summer.”

Patrick Jones, a former boss of Albonetti’s who previously taught at Tindley Preparatory Academy in Indianapolis, the school that inspired the book, will assist Albonetti with ideas, scenarios, situations and building characteristics.

“It is about a student from privilege who’s forced to attend a school that’s underprivi-

leged,” Albonetti said. “I thought about writing a nonfiction book. We thought about making it nonfiction, but there’s something that doesn’t have the power fiction does. A welltold story can connect with someone’s soul.

“I think the story of (Jones’) school needs to be told. (I) haven’t confirmed numbers yet, but with preliminary numbers, we think during the four years he was principal the school had the highest academic growth over any school in the state.”

BAKING BREAD WITH CHRIS HAMON’S RECIPE Ingredients: 6 cups bread flour (I like King Arthur’s) 1 teaspoon yeast 1/4 cup olive oil 1 3/4 cup lukewarm water 2 tablespoons sugar Directions • Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a large bowl or plastic food tub.

• Combine oil and water together and then add them to dry ingredients.

• Stir until mixed.

• Place in fridge and let it sit for three to six days.

• When you are ready to bake it, pull it out of the fridge at least two to three hours before you plan to use it.

For baguettes • Shape dough on a lightly floured surface. I’d suggest watching a video on how to shape a baguette.

• Let dough rest for 20 minutes on a lightly floured surface and covered with a clean towel. At the same time, place a baking stone in the oven and preheat the oven to 500 degrees.

• Move the loaves to a peel, lightly flour the top of your loaves and score the dough with a knife (I usually score my baguettes with three slices of about 1/4-inch in depth) • Place in oven and bake for about 20 minutes. Every oven is a little different, so you may need to experiment through trial and error.

• Place hot bread on cooling rack.

ESSAY New direction?

LETTER You have a right to smoke, but…

Commentary by Terry Anker Photographs from the turn-ofthe-19th century record central Indiana’s vibrant interurban railway and trolley system. We were then the eighth-largest state in the U.S. Folks needed to move around. A century later, folks still need to move around. The state has grown by nearly three times.

But the tracks are mostly gone, buried under greasy layers of asphalt. In their place rise dedicated bus, bicycle and automobile lanes.

Some call for the ease, safety and environmental benefits of public transportation by train. Others doubt the claims, preferring the relative freedom of cars.

Is it human nature to seek the new and improved and then, with the passage of time, come to romanticize the halcyon days gone by? Our collective public and private space has been filled with rightful voices holding up the good work of the late Sen. Richard Lugar. Add this one to the chorus. Still, there was a time, not that long ago, when Lugar was defeated in a primary of his own political brethren. Alas, some of those who urged his defeat now post photos proclaiming their undying admiration.

What is it that brings us to tire of, or even revile, the things that we love? We destroy them only to one day long for them being returned to us. We build up. We extinguish. We build up, again.

Countless institutions, individuals, ideas, politicians and marriages suffer the cyclical fate. Have they betrayed us, or have we betrayed them?

Should we have kept the trains running, despite their shortcomings? Or, was it time to pave a new direction?

A vicious cycle Commentary by Danielle Wilson Triathlon season is upon us, and unfortunately, I may have already made a big mistake when it comes to defending my title here at Chez Wilson. In a moment of HUMOR weakness and perhaps overconfidence, I purchased my husband Doo an honest-to-god tri bike for Christmas from a random Craigslist dude outside of Bloomington (no worries, friends, I had my 6-foot-3 son pick it up. Safety first!).

So, instead of riding an inexpensive, relatively heavy, quite ordinary road bike, he’ll be racing on a carbon fiber, aero-barred Mac Daddy, specifically designed for this event. Realistically, I probably bought him two to three minutes, which is all he needs to catch me. Ugh. I mean, what if I lose? I told Doo several years ago that he will never beat me because, unlike him, I am willing to die to win.

I’m not kidding. I call it “athletic brinkmanship,” and I am deeply committed to its

tactics. Blister? Ignore it. Dehydrated? Keep going. Signs of heat stroke? Suck. It. Up. This strategy has served me well in past races, but will it be enough this time?

A better question is, if Doo and his dumb new bike do win, can I rise above my arrogance and smack talk and truly be happy for him? Can I be a gracious loser and celebrate his success? I like to think I can, but I’m not entirely positive (which is why I am also considering various sabotage options. I’m drawn to the simplicity of an ex-lax dosing – classic but haven’t ruled out a good old-fashioned tire slashing).

I do know that next year I’m buying Doo a chocolate fountain.

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “The only way to do great work is to love what you do.

If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.”

- Steve Jobs

Editor, A few weeks ago, I decided to conduct a little social experiment. Rather than throwing the cigarette butts that people leave at the end of my driveway into the trash, I started saving them in an empty 16-ounce pickle jar. I was curious how long it would take to fill the jar. Want to wager a guess?

If you need some information about where I live, I can tell you that I share a common driveway with two nice neighbors.

None of us smokes. Our driveway leads out to a busy two-lane street in Fishers. Our mailboxes are on this street, so we walk along the edge of the street almost daily.

And we pick up the trash, mostly cigarette butts, that drivers throw out their windows.

I will spare you more lectures about the health dangers of smoking because you have heard them and you have a right to smoke. I have my vices, too. I occasionally eat fast food, and I love a glass of wine in the evening. But I have never taken a bunch of empty wine bottles, loaded them in my car and driven to strangers’ houses so that I can dump them at the end of their property.

So, how many days did it take to fill the pickle jar? If you guessed 19, you get a gold star. You probably prefer that to my overflowing pickle jar.

Faded memories Commentary by Dick Wolfsie There are three things that make a marriage work. Unfortunately, nobody knows what they are.

HUMOR Communication is vitally important. This is a typical conversation my wife of 37 years and I have at the dinner table: “What are you doing tomorrow, Mary Ellen?”

“Let’s see, I have my morning exercise class, then a haircut at two, and then book club after dinner. And you?”

“I’m playing pickleball, then I’m shooting a TV segment and I’m going to write this week’s column.”

The next morning at breakfast: “Tell me again, what are you doing today, Mary Ellen?”

“I have exercise class, then a haircut, and book club after dinner. What’s on your schedule?”

“I’m playing pickleball, then shooting a TV segment and then writing this week’s column.”

Later that night: “So, what did you do today, Mary Ellen?”

“I had my exercise class, got a haircut

and went to a meeting. What did you do?”

“I played pickleball, did a TV segment and wrote a column.”

We don’t even realize we had the same exchange several times. Is this because we don’t pay attention to each other, or are we both losing our memories?

When I got home last Tuesday evening, Mary Ellen was nowhere to be found. She probably had said where she was going, so I wasn’t worried. About 9 p.m., she called.

“Hi, Dick, I’m having a great time in Boston with my old friend, Eve.” “You’re in Boston? I don’t remember you telling me that.”

“That’s because I didn’t mention it.”

“You didn’t? Why not?”

“Why bother? By the way, my flight arrives back in Indy at 8 p.m. Friday.”

“Have fun, Mary Ellen. You can tell me all about your trip when you get home.”

“Thanks, and I’ll bet you will be surprised to see me.”

DISPATCHES New initiative benefits truckers — The Indiana Dept. of Transportation recently announced the launch of the Trucks Park Here system, a multi-state, regional effort to make interstate travel safer by creating a network of safe, convenient parking areas for truckers with the ability to collect and share real-time parking availability with drivers through dynamic message signs, smartphone applications, and traveler information websites. INDOT will feature 19 sites in the Trucks Park Here system along Interstates 65, 69 and 70.

Facility fee is hidden health care charge — Facility fees are one of the biggest ripoffs the hospital industry has ever come up with, according to Charles B. Inlander, a consumer advocate and health-care consultant based in Fogelsville, Pa..

Across the nation, consumers who go to “off-site” urgent-care centers or medical practices (they are not located on a hospital’s campus but are owned by the hospital entity) are being charged facility fees that in some cases are higher than the cost of care that was provided. Sadly, the fees themselves are perfectly legal

despite complaints to federal and state regulators and legislators from consumers and even some doctors. The hospital industry defends these “gotcha” charges by saying the patient is receiving better care because the facility has all the hospital’s resources behind it. But in most cases, nothing from the patient’s perspective changed at the urgent-care center or doctor’s office after being bought by the hospital. Now, with off-campus, hospital-owned urgent-care centers and medical practices growing in huge numbers (nearly 50 percent of all doctors are now hospital employed), these facility fees are becoming much more common.

Music and menu choices — It’s no secret that restaurants use colors, lighting and music to influence diner’s food choices.

Now a study suggests that theory may be fact. The study analyzed customers’ food choices during periods of loud, upbeat music and during periods of quiet music.

When the music was quiet, customers made healthier menu choices than when the music was loud. The takeaway is that you should focus on the healthy choices regardless of the noise level.

FHS teacher Colby chooses final play to center on life lessons

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Fishers High School theater teacher Jon Colby informed his students in November 2018 this would be PERFORMANCE his final school year.

Colby, a veteran of improv, is leaving after seven years to start a career as a motivational speaker.

Before leaving, he wanted to change the final play he was directing to “All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten,” based on books of essays by Robert Fulghum. The performances are 7 p.m. May 9-10 and 11 a.m. May 11.

“I really love the messages behind it,” Colby said. “The kids were confused at first. But at the read-through, they were saying, ‘It’s funny and it’s deep and it’s sweet.’ They had a lot of emotional connection to it. I was worried they were thinking it was cheesy, but they really seem to like it.”

Colby, who also teaches speech, said the story is a mixture of funny and serious moments.

“What is really cool is, we are using the band and orchestra to give us some live music in a couple of parts,” Colby said.

There are 23 cast members.

“We have a lot of kids that have never done a straight play before and really enjoyed that experience,” Colby said.

“They’ve never done anything but musical theater, but now they are buying into straight plays, too.”

Senior Lexi Esterle performs in three scenes, as a narrator, singer and Ed. “I would say all of us as individuals identify with different parts of this show,” Esterle said.

Esterle said she has been acting in musicals and straight plays most of her life.

“I’ve been in pretty much every show at Fishers from freshman year on,” she said. “It’s part of why I like this show because we have some times that we incorporate music, and one of the songs is set to music. I think it really brings together all of those elements, and with

Quinn Heiking, Victor Laughner and Isaiah Cheatham appear in the Fishers High School play. (Submitted photos)

some of the themes we are able to delve deeper than some musicals are able to do. I’ve done a lot of different shows, but this brings out the best of all forms of theater.”

Esterle plans to major in telecommunications at Ball State University.

“It’s a field Mr. Colby actually introduced to me,” she said. “So, in a lot of ways, he’s shaped my life as a teacher. I met him through theater, and I’ve learned so many things from him through theater. That shows when he’s in the last scene and he plays Alexander Papaderos and he talks about what the meaning of life is. It’s very much reflective of how he teaches us and how he’s taught all of us for the last four years. So, him being in the last scene with us, it’s the end of our time in high school, so it’s a good way to wrap it up.”

Colby is performing in an FHS show for the first time.

“I literally have the last line of the show,” he said.

Junior Victor Laughner said he was

skeptical about the play before the cast did a read-through.

“I realize it has a lot of good messages and themes throughout the whole thing,” he said. “I feel a lot of people are going to relate to it and find it interesting. I think it will be a good note to end on Mr. Colby.”

FHS English teacher Jordan Nel joined the performing arts department for assist with the production “The title is kindergarten, but there are themes that pass through teenagers and adulthood,” Nel said. “Each student plays a variety of characters and it speaks to so many situations that are funny and also touching. Mr. Colby decided to do this show for its enduring message and because the thread that carries through the entire show of thinking of the bigger things in life, relationships and all the important things we learn when we are really young, but they are still applicable.”

Tickets are $7 to $10 for adults and $5 to $7 for students and senior citizens. For tickets, visit ow.ly/eeBR50txg52.

The lavender and salted caramel French macarons at Gallery Pastry Shop in Broad Ripple.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 1101 E. 54th St., Suite G, Indianapolis.

What to get: French Macarons Price: $2.50 each Anna’s take: I had never tried a French macaron before my visit to Gallery Pastry Shop in Broad Ripple for a friend’s birthday, and now they’re my favorite dessert pastry.

For those who don’t know, a French macaron is a delicate circle of deliciousness,

meringue-based on the inside and typically made with flour, egg whites and sugar.

They’re also beautifully and vibrantly colored and make an adorable gift when lined in a box in little colorful rows.

I tried the lavender and salted caramel flavors at the Gallery Pastry Shop, which offers an array of other flavors, typically matched with Easter egg colors. Each little delicacy is worth every penny.

Gallery Pastry Shop is a quaint and artsy little place to visit for birthdays or a lunch date. It opens its garage doors to let the outside air in when the weather is nice.

Suggested pairings: Try the blood orange mimosa. What’s better than mimosas and macarons?

Indy Film Fest features ‘Grateful’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com After making the rounds at film festivals nationally and internationally in 2019, the documentary of IndianapSCREENING olis resident Jenni Berebitsky is returning home.

“Grateful” debuted at Indy Shorts International Film Festival in July 2018. As a winner of the Indy Shorts Audience Choice Indiana Spotlight Award, it was then shown at Heartland Film Festival in Indianapolis in October 2018. It also won Best Documentary Film at the Circle City Festival in September 2018. Now, it will have three screenings during Indy Film Fest, which runs May 2 to 12 at the Indianapolis Museum of Arts at Newfields.

Geist-area resident Amy Pauszek, whose “Where’s Amy” photo column runs in Current Publishing Inc. newspapers, served as executive producer and producer. Paul Nethercott was director/producer.

Berebitsky has been battling ALS for 10 years.

“Producing ‘Grateful’ has been an amazing experience,” Pauszek said. “I have had the opportunity to witness how my friend

Director/Producer Paul Nethercott and Producer/Executive Producer Amy Pauszek hold award for 2019 Audience Choice Award for Best Documentary Short at Sedona International Film Festival in March.

Jenni Berebitsky’s story about ALS touches and affects the lives of others. People love the film. They laugh and cry and find it inspiring. So many friends have helped support the award-winning film and it’s an honor to be bringing it back to Indiana to screen in May at the Indy Film Festival. It has been such a blessing having ‘Grateful’ traveling all over the world, but Indiana is my home.”

Istanbul’s shopping paradise Commentary by Don Knebel

23-year-old college student needs a life saving B-negative kidney transplant!

Please help me save my son’s life email: kidney4sean@gmail.com

The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, Turkey, is perhaps the world’s most famous shopping area. It also is among the TRAVEL few indoor places where both adults and children can get lost for hours.

In 1453 A.D., the Ottoman Empire, under 21-year-old Mehmed II, captured Constantinople, then with a population of about 500,000, bringing the Byzantine Empire to a close.

The Ottomans were experienced traders and the city, soon renamed Istanbul, lay along major trading routes. In 1461, to finance converting the Hagia Sophia into a mosque, Mehmed ordered construction of a bazaar in the center of the city to market goods, such as textiles and gems, from throughout his realm. In 1520, Sultan Suleiman I, known to history as Suleiman the Magnificent, began a major expansion of the Ottoman Empire.

With the Empire’s trading reach expanded, Suleiman significantly enlarged the bazaar.

By the 17th century, Istanbul was the largest city in the world and its famous bazaar added slaves taken in the Empire’s conquests to its long list of items being bought and sold.

Today, Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar, occupying

Covered Street in Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar. (Photo by Don Knebel)

approximately 1.2 million square feet and featuring approximately 3,600 stores, is a shoppers’ paradise. Six days a week, between 8:30 a.m. and 7 p.m., at least 250,000 people, locals and tourists alike, crowd into its maze of 65 streets, most now covered with vaulted ceilings, seeking everything from life’s essentials to exotic works of art.

The Grand Bazaar is routinely listed among the 10 most visited places in the world.

Istanbul guides have two cautions for Grand Bazaar visitors. First, never pay the asking price, no matter how charming the

seller. Second, remember which of the 18 named gates you entered if you hope to find your way back. I can tell you from personal experience that these warnings are disregarded at your peril.

Spring is in full swing. The bugs are back, seasonal allergies have come out of hiding and “for sale” signs GRAMMAR GUY in front yards are as plentiful as dandelions. If this were a cartoon, all my Realtor friends would have cash register “ka-ching” sounds going off while dollar signs appeared in their puffy, pollen-plagued eyes.

Yes, ‘tis the season for house-selling, and — as someone who has watched enough “House Hunters” to consider himself a semi-professional Realtor — it’s time to revisit some commonly confused words: realty and reality.

Let’s go ahead and get this out of the way — Realtor does not have an invisible letter “i” hiding in the middle of it. I can’t tell you how many times I hear people say “real-i-tor.” There’s no “i” in Realtor.

Realty is a noun that simply means real estate. Realty deals with the buying and selling of property — buildings and land.

Reality is the opposite of fiction. It is usually a noun that means “something real.” As an adjective, it often modifies the

word television: reality television.

That means shows like “House Hunters” could be considered realty reality TV. When it comes to the word “Realtor,” why is it sometimes capitalized (like in this article, for instance)? A capital “r” Realtor is someone who is officially a member of the National Association of Realtors. Realtor is actually a trademarked term by the NAR, therefore many stylebooks (including the AP) encourage you to capitalize it and use it only if you’re confident the person to whom you’re referring is truly a capital “r” Realtor.

If not, they advise, use the term real estate agent or real estate broker.

Even though I’m hopped up on Zyrtec, I love spring. I also love “House Hunters” (especially “House Hunters International”), even though I know it’s heavily staged. An entertaining reality TV show is nothing at which to sneeze.

DISPATCHES

LIFESTYLE Duct cleaning — Duct-cleaning services often claim that they can improve a home’s air quality and boost the efficiency of its heating and cooling system by sucking or blowing dust and dirt from HVAC system ducts. Some even claim that duct cleaning can improve respiratory health. However, the Environmental Protection Agency reports say duct cleaning has never been shown to prevent air-quality-related health problems, and that the presence of dust and dirt in a home’s ducts has not been shown to increase particulate levels in its air. Studies also have failed to show that duct cleaning improves HVAC system efficiency or reduces home heating or cooling costs, but the service can cost between $300 to $1,000, depending on the size of the system being cleaned.

Blueprint for Improvement: Update for Meridian-Kessler kitchen Commentary by Larry Greene

Before

Background: This home in the historic Meridian-Kessler neighborhood was built in 1924. In the 1980s, a sunroom was added off the kitchen; the original exterior brick wall remained.

THE CHALLENGE The home features much of its original charm; however, the 30-year-old updates to the kitchen were looking worn and outdated. The owners wanted to preserve the historic roots while transforming the kitchen with 21st-century amenities and materials.

After

THE SOLUTION The removal of the brick wall that separated the kitchen from the sunroom made an immediate impact on the flow of this space.

1. The granite countertop extends behind the new sink to provide more workspace and a generous seating area.

2. The cabinetry was stained a lovely castle gray. The beauty of the wood grain complements the Coretec floors and other wood trim around the home.

3. The white subway tile features a beveled edge which generates depth and interest around the backsplash.

4. The baseboard in the sunroom features a clever hidden “toe kick” feature — pullout food and water bowls for the two resident dogs.
