FHS graduate attends seventh Junior Olympics

By Sophie Nulph news@currentinfishers.com Drew Dixon, a 2019 Fishers High School graduate, recently competTEAM U.S.A ed in sport stacking for the seventh time at the Junior Olympics in North Carolina.

Sport stacking consists of 12 specially designed cups that are stacked and unstacked by players in certain sequences while being timed.

Dixon received a gold medal in cycle headto-head relay, a silver in 363 timed relay and 363 head-to-head relay and placed sixth in the 3x3x3 and in the 3x6x3. He also placed second overall in the timed 3x6x3 relay.

Dixon began experimenting with sport stacking when he was in elementary school.

After years of practicing with normal cups, his grandparents bought him his first set of official stacking cups. He began competing at age 11.

Dixon took first place during his first competition in Connersville, which qualified him for the Junior Olympics.

“The concept of beating your time and seeing the physical progression of it (is exciting),” said Dixon, who plans to study mechanical engineering at Trine University.

After years of competing, Dixon became a part of Team USA in the summer of 2017.

Dixon went to Spain earlier this year for the World Stacking Championships. He placed 43rd in the U.S. for males.

Dixon will soon start a job with Speedstacks, the company that makes the specialized cups for competitions and sponsors Team USA.

Kevin Macadaeg has been contemplating holding an event such as the Cruise Indy car show for 20 years.

CRUISE INDY Macadaeg had watched as his hometown of Pontiac, Mich., held the Woodward Dream Cruise, which started in 1995.

“They were expecting 25,000 at the first one and ended up with 250,000,” Macadaeg said. “It’s become the largest cruise event.”

So Macadaeg, a doctor and founding member of Carmel-based Indiana Spine Group, finally launched Cruise Indy, a 12-mile open cruise between Carmel and Indianapolis Sept. 14.

“With me being a motorhead wannabe and a supporter of the military, I was looking for a good venue for the military and I think this could be a good thing for Carmel, the state of Indiana and for Folds of Honor,” said Macadaeg, adding that Indiana Spine Group often supports charitable causes.

Folds of Honor-Indiana provides scholarships to families of veterans who have died or are disabled. Folds of Honor-Indiana

COMMUNITY CHAMPIONS MVCSC seeks input from families regarding growth

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Mt. Vernon Community School Corp. families soon will have the COVER STORY opportunity to provide input for the district’s growth.

MVCSC Supt. Jack Parker said a demographic study that was presented to the school board in February revealed that the district is growing. “(The study) predicts we are going to grow 2,000 resident students in the next 10 years,” Parker said.

The growth would be approximately 50 percent of MVCSC’s current size, which is 4,275 students.

“That’s pretty significant growth, and because of that, we have to plan for it,” Parker said. “That growth takes additional personnel, increase of programs and obviously some brick-and-mortar so we have a place to keep them under roof.”

Parker said the district will develop a 10-year-plus plan by inviting community members to provide input at two separate events. The first will be at 7 p.m. Aug. 27 at the Mt. Vernon High School auditorium, 8112 N. 200 West, Fortville. The second will be at 7 p.m. Jan. 21, 2020, also at the high school

auditorium.

“We really want the community involvement,” Parker said. “We are calling that group the Mt. Vernon Community Champions.”

The first meeting will be one hour and will consist of providing information about communication, transportation and how the district provides technology and special programs to students, among other items.

“It’s to try to get everybody on a level field of understanding the different push points of our district,” Parker said. “Then, we are going to ask folks that come to us what are the thoughts and opinions, hopes and dreams of our school district as we grow? How should we best manage that?”

One of the topics is grade-level configuration. MVCSC has three elementary buildings, one with students in grades kindergarten through fifth grade, one for middle school students in grades six through eight and the high school.

“Are those the best grade configurations?” Parker said. “Do we want to consider reopening Fortville Elementary as an intermediate school, which had grades five and six in it, and when do we need to build our next elementary school?”

Other considerations include building a freshman or a senior center and determin-

ing grade configurations at the middle school.

“Basically, anything is on the table,” Parker said.

After the first Community Champions event, MVCSC will create an advisory group of approximately 50 people to develop plans and ideas. The drafted plan from the advisory group will be presented at the January 2020 meeting to seek input from the Community Champions before it advances to the school board.

“My hopes are by having this six- to seven-month conversation, by the time we take it to the (school) board in March (2020), that we would say, ‘Here’s our plan,’ and we intend our plan to be clear and specific, yet nimble enough to make changes as the population grows by cohorts,” Parker said.

The district has the ability to bond for renovations or additions to existing buildings, but if a new building is required, Parker said there will be a referendum.

“We don’t have room in our debt service to add an entire building,” he said.

The Community Champions meetings are free, but the district is encouraging those interested in attending to RSVP. To do so, visit mvcsc.k12.in.us.

FEEDBACK FROM EVERYONE Cindy Cobb, a parent to a fifth-grade student and a second-grade student within MVCSC, applauds the opportunity to provide input about the district’s growth.

“I think having the opportunity for parents and community stakeholders to be able to come and have our voices heard, what do we want it to look like in the future for our kids (is a good idea),” she said. “As my children are at a younger elementary age, I have to advocate for what’s best for them and what’s best for the rest of the children in the community. I think it’s important to keep the culture of Mt. Vernon because here, it’s a family culture and it’s important to see that that continues as we see the growth.”

Cobb said growth is inevitable and it’s important to hear from everyone, even those who don’t have kids in the school system.

“In some way, I feel like everybody is still part of the school system, even if you don’t have kids in there,” Cobb said.

ESSAY

LETTER Keep it up

Best friends

Editor, Thank you for the interesting and wellwritten stories in Current in Geist, especially the last one about Chad Tarbutton (The Face of Addiction, published Aug. 6).

Keep it up.

Dolores Wood, Indianapolis

Commentary by Terry Anker In the 1963 film “The Courtship of Eddie’s Father,” a boy, portrayed by then 9-year-old Ron Howard, schemed to find a mate for his recently widowed father. A 1969 sitcom of the same name found the youngster, worried about dad’s imagined loneliness, playing matchmaker for three seasons. Bill Bixby, who would go on to play the mild-mannered David Banner to Lou Ferrigno’s green menace in “The Incredible Hulk,” would always end his son’s failed attempt to marry him off with some Saturday-morning-special retelling of how the boy was “his best friend” and that no other person was needed to fulfill his emotional needs.

We should be close to our family, especially our children (of any age). And, good, it is not necessary to have a spouse or partner to be complete humans. But, should an adult man make a little boy his best friend? Can a 9-year-old carry the weight? Conventional wisdom suggests that a dog is man’s best friend. They don’t talk much. Now, it has become an almost expected convention at weddings to hear the groom and bride wax poetic about how their betrothed is their best friend. Ask the question of the internet: Who should be my best friend? The answers include spouses and pets. Buzzfeed earnestly outlines how to pick a celebrity BFF. Maybe it’s all semantic. Still, can a spouse be a best friend? Can a child? Could a pet? Aren’t they something more, something immeasurably extra, sublime, profound and enduring? Can parent, spouse, adult and friend be vested in one bestie? Should they?

Florida Road needs widened

I’ll have a serving of yoga Commentary by Danielle Wilson School started for me last week, on Wednesday mind you, and I’m already exhausted (it’s Friday). All I can do when I come home is collapse onto the HUMOR couch and hope my children will leave me and my Cheese Puffs alone.

I’ve become the stick of butter sitting on my kitchen counter – soft and melty and slightly salty whenever someone wants dinner. What gives? A measly three days with teenagers shouldn’t wear me out like this, even if two of those days were spent in exceptionally high heels. I’d like to blame it on flu or mono or another insidious kid-borne illness, but no, my friends, I’m simply out of shape.

And I suppose it makes sense. I did cut back a bit on exercising this summer. And by “cut back” I mean “all but eliminated.”

I convinced myself that walking the dog around the block was a solid cardio workout

and that switching to un-iced Pop Tarts basically burned calories at the same rate as squats. I knew I’d be traveling, I had no upcoming races where beating my husband would be a priority, and I am the queen of excuses (it’s too hot, I’ll go tomorrow, knee fat is trending). I’ve spent the last two months eating, lounging and bingeing on an inordinate amount of television. Am I really surprised that a few days at work has me leaving the aforementioned couch only to head to bed?

So, a pledge. Starting this week, a little jogging, some bendy yoga, perhaps a visit to a sweaty weight room. Fitness is now on the menu (along with my Cheese Puffs, of course)!

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Wisely, and slow.

They stumble that run fast.”

- William Shakespeare

Editor, The City of Fishers and Hamilton County need to seriously consider widening Florida Road from Southeastern Parkway to 113th Street.

Florida road is very narrow and dangerous especially with the amount of car traffic and large truck traffic.

During the school year, Florida Road is heavily used by high school students and buses.

The widening of Florida Road needs immediate attention before there is an unnecessary tragic loss of life due to an accident.

John Lucas, Fishers

“Southeastern Parkway to 113th Street. Florida road is very narrow and dangerous especially with the amount of car traffic and large truck traffic.”

Free school supplies?

Kudos to Tarbutton

Editor, It’s back to school again and in July!

What happened to summer vacation for students who need the time for summer jobs, visiting relatives, experiencing summer vacations with their families and just having time for themselves? The balanced school calendar which is also “year-round school” affects all of us whether we have children in school or not, and three examples are the moved-up dates for county fairs, the Indiana State Fair timing and the closing of public pools long before the summer heat is gone. Added to this scenario are the free hand-outs of new school supplies every year to students.

My questions are: Are the students being taught to reuse their school supplies from the year before? Do the parents pass down outgrown supplies to younger siblings, such as backpacks? The bottom line is, why must the students be receiving free new supplies every year? I welcome an honest answer.

Mari Briggs, Sheridan

Editor, I want to give a shout-out of kudos and support to Chad Tarbutton for sharing his story of addiction. The road to recovery can be long and painful but worth it. Relapses are common. Keep up the good fight and know you’re not alone. Settling in shame and embarrassment hurts the addicted and the family and friends that care about them.

Sharing your experience, strength and hope is essential for others. I benefited tremendously by attending Al-Anon meetings and my children attended Alateen. You are never alone.

Tracy Nierste, Fishers

“The road to recovery can be long and painful but worth it. Relapses are common.

Keep up the good fight and know you’re not alone.”

Indiana increases recovery options Editor, It’s encouraging to read stories of individuals achieving success with their recovery efforts (“The Face of Addiction,” published in Current in Geist Aug. 6). However, as an employee of Fairbanks, vice chair for the Indiana Recovery Council and someone in long-term recovery dedicated to helping others overcome substance abuse, there is some information I’d like to clarify.

The article was rather negative toward treatment facilities, services and options available in Indiana. While I respect someone’s personal opinions, it’s important to note that Indiana has a wide range of fully accredited addiction treatment facilities offering everything from cutting-edge therapies to traditional, evidence-based treatments. Fairbanks, which was mentioned by name in the article, has three levels of inpatient options including detox, rehab and residential. Stays at the hospital range from five to 30 days, depending on an individual’s needs. There also are two long-term residential programs with a minimum stay of 30 days and several different outpatient options. The state is focusing on transitional living facilities with 30-plus new facilities opening this year.

Your readers may be interested in a new effort to reduce stigma and change the conversation about substance-use disorders and mental health. Stigma is one of the biggest obstacles for people seeking treatment. This campaign addresses that. For more, visit stigmaneverhelps.com.

Indiana has a significant number of people working tirelessly to improve options and services for those struggling with substance-use disorder. I’m encouraged by how we are working together to help people live in recovery.

Matthew Haughton-Endicott, CHW/CRS SA, Carmel

We’re about to travel to the West Coast and I dread the long plane flight. I have some interesting audio books HUMOR but listening to them requires either headphones or earbuds.

Mary Ellen says if I wear headphones, it will look like I’m making fun of the guys who flag the plane into the gate.

My earbuds are terrible. I’ve lost the foam covers, so now they don’t stay in place. If the right one falls out and dangles alongside my neck, the left one loosens and lands in my beverage. Often, when I’m riding my bicycle, the entire wire falls and gets tangled in the greasy chain. Once, when I was driving my car, I leaned over to get something out of my glove compartment, hooked the wire on my gear shift and almost strangled myself.

I thought I was alone in my plight but apparently there are others suffering in silence. Literally. According to a New York Times article, many people have a disorder called “earbud cartilage deficiency syndrome,” known as ECDS. If you’re looking for a good laugh at a cocktail party, you really need to say all those complete words out loud. My wife doesn’t have this problem, by the way. She is cartilaginously wellendowed and, I am proud to say, it is all natural.

One techie website reports that people with this problem lack an antitragus in the ear canal, which is “a small tubercle that points anteriorly and is separated from the tragus by the intertragic notch.” Sorry to bore you with the obvious.

I want these earbuds, as described on eBay: “Full metal housing, cold forged from solid aluminum, anodized, with a full spectrum of hyper-balanced micro drivers.” Or, were they describing a lunar module?

One website sells a pack of earbuds in three assorted sizes. OK, some people have two different-sized ears — I get that. But the market for three mismatched ears has limited sales potential.

I should stop obsessing about this. I’m already dealing with failing vision, sinus problems and a receding hairline. I don’t need to be distracted by side issues.

Blue light glasses – Eyewear companies now offer a costly option for lenses that block blue light emitted by phones and tablets. It’s true that evening exposure to blue light can interfere with sleep. We still need exposure to blue light, however, during the daytime. It’s a natural component of sunlight and enhances attention, reaction times and mood. So, blue light blocking-glasses may do more harm than good.

Ginger for pain relief – Ginger has been proven to work in reducing nausea related to everything from motion sickness to chemotherapy. One of its lesser-known benefits, however, is that it also reduces inflammation.

Some research also suggests that it works just as well as the migraine drug sumatriptan (Imitrex). To relieve pain, take a 1,000 mg supplement at the onset of pain.

Make sure to buy products that are labeled as “broad spectrum” in order to obtain protection from both types of radiation.

Full replacement cost coverage will increase your premium by at least 15 percent and is only good for a limited time period, or specific number of miles. It might not be worth the extra premiums given the chance of totaling your car is less than 1 percent in a year.

Johnny Magic set for prime-time debut

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Jonathan Mobley was hooked after attending his first magic show.

“I loved the amazing TELEVISION feeling I had when I saw a magician fool me and an entire audience in my hometown of Batesville when I was only 8 years old,” said Mobley, known as Johnny Magic.

“Since then, every birthday and Christmas I asked for magic tricks so I could entertain friends and family. I also saved my money so I could visit magic shops, so I always had something new and exciting.”

Now 34, the Westfield resident became a full-time magician in 2016.

“I love being a magician because it gives me a platform to connect with others and inspire them to see beyond their limiting beliefs,” he said. “For me, it’s so much more than entertainment. Magic offers joy and wonder that can only be experienced by being in the moment.”

His biggest break so far came earlier this year when Mobley submitted a video to the producers of “Penn & Teller: Fool Us,” and was asked to appear on the show.

“Since they’re in their sixth year, they’ve seen a lot, so I sent them something brand new they’ve never seen before,” Mobley said. “They said, ‘It’s amazing. We don’t know how you did it.’ I have magician friends who have been trying to get on the show for awhile, so it was quite a privilege.”

Mobley filmed his appearance in February. The episode will air at 8 p.m. Aug. 26 on The CW Network. Mobley will see it for the first time with the rest of the nation.

“A lot of producers from other shows watch it, so it may be a springboard to some other opportunities,” he said. “I really want to stay performing in the Midwest.

I like (my) kids growing up here and staying with my family. The exposure locally will help, too, because I love performing around here.”

Naturally, Mobley was thrilled to be invited to perform on the show.

“The timing was a little tricky since my wife had just delivered our second child

a few days before I was scheduled to fly into (Las) Vegas,” he said. “The show producers were amazing to work with and made me feel very welcome. I also hired a magician consultant to help with the whole experience and created a new illusion for the show. I had never performed the illusion on stage before the episode.

My parents also surprised me by flying into Vegas to watch me perform live.”

Mobley and his wife, Amanda, have two sons, 5-month-old Levi and 3-year-old Caleb.

Mobley primarily performs at corporate events.

“We sold our house and quit my (video production) job and we went for it,” he said.

Mobley moved to Westfield from Noblesville this summer. He has previously lived in Fishers and Carmel.

“I grew up in a performing family, always on the stage,” Mobley said. “No other magicians, though, just acting and singing. Growing up on the stage in local theater helped develop my comfort on stage. I’m a self-taught magician, so growing up I read every magic book I could get my hands on.

“I would perform constantly to learn what people enjoyed. I quickly discovered how to use magic to tell stories and con-

nect with my audience.”

Mobley enjoys sharing his skills with young magicians.

“My other favorite thing to do is to teach, so we have a magic course for kids from 8 to 12,” Mobley said. “They can buy a kit and learn watching videos by me, step by step. We make them here locally. It’s a real passion of mine. I grew up homeschooled, so I grew up in a real teaching environment.”

Mobley grew up doing improv, so there is a lot of interaction on stage. The best part of magic, he said, is the surprise factor.

“I like the audience to think one thing is going to happen and then surprise them with something else,” he said. “People love to laugh, and I have a kind of stand-up comedy-feel.”

VIEWING PARTY There will be a viewing party from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Aug. 26 at the Main Event, 4016 E. 82nd St., Indianapolis. The show airs from 8 to 9 p.m. on a large screen.

The event will include a 10-minute interview with Johnny Magic and a 10-minute magic show. There will be a magic kit giveaway, magic tricks for sale, photos and autographs. Food will be available for purchase.

The Indianapolis Jewish & Israeli Film Festival is set for Aug. 25 to 29. The Aug. 26 program at the Hasten Hebrew Academy of Indianapolis Cultural Arts Center, 6602 Hoover Rd., includes a 6 p.m. screening of “Grateful: The Jenni Berebitsky Story.”

The 17-minute documentary was produced by Geist resident Amy Pauszek, whose Where’s Amy column runs in Current Publishing newspapers. The film was directed and produced

A celebration of eclectic cars, fine dining and charitable causes, Artomobilia Weekend offers something for CAR SHOW everyone as it revs up for its 12th consecutive year on the streets of Carmel, the backroads of southern Indiana and the luxurious grounds of Lucas Estate.

“First and foremost, it’s a great weekend that really shines a spotlight on some of the best assets the City of Carmel has to offer the broader community,” Event Coordinator John Leonard said. “We are very fortunate that our event growth has been tied to the growth of the City of Carmel, the Arts & Design District and now the Midtown area.”

The three-pronged event begins Aug. 23 with SHIFT, a poker run-style car rally in southern Indiana, and Fuelicious, a private auto and dining event at Lucas Estate. It concludes Aug. 24 with Artomobilia, a glittering showcase of collector and enthusiast cars on the streets of the Carmel Arts & Design District.

Proceeds benefit the Three Points Racing Foundation, a nonprofit that assists veterans, and Bolt for the Heart, a nonprofit that provides automated external defibrillators, or AEDs, to first responders and trained individuals in public places.

“Each of our events focuses on eclectic groups of cars, and as a result, there is something of interest for everyone,” Leonard said. “Likewise, all the events contribute to the charities we support.”

Launched last year, SHIFT is a private driving event that benefits the Three Points Racing Foundation, which helps veterans transition from the military to successful careers in motorsports. More than 25 drivers in high-performance cars will motor 180 miles through the backroads of southern

A few hours later, the fifth annual Fuelicious begins at 7 p.m. and runs until 11 p.m. at Lucas Estate in Carmel. Themed “A Celebration of Horsepower & Heart Health,” it will feature 50 collector cars and combine fine dining and live entertainment. Tickets are $275. Tables of 10 are $2,500. Proceeds benefit Bolt for the Heart.

Free and open to the public, Artomobilia is the namesake of the broader Artomobilia Weekend. Presented by KAR Auction Services, the Aug. 24 event is from noon to 5 p.m. in the Arts & Design District. It will feature more than 400 collector and enthusiast cars.

A new addition to Artomobilia is PorschePalooza. Presented by Tom Wood Porsche, it will feature more than 100 Porches from 1954 to present.

World’s most famous store Commentary by Don Knebel Many visitors to London consider their trip complete only when they have obtained an iconic green bag from Harrods, TRAVEL the world’s most famous department store.

In 1849, Charles Henry Harrod, an East London wholesale grocer, opened a small retail store in Knightsbridge, then a village outside London.

What’s up with ‘that?’

Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Sometimes you can have too many of one thing — like presidential primary candidates, for instance. You can have too many toothpaste options at the GRAMMAR GUY grocery store. You can also have too many pillows on your bed. Organization expert Marie Kondo is a household name because of her minimalistic outlook. However, you don’t want to get rid of all of your pillows, right? You need at least one.

In our writing, we tend to overuse the word “that.” We sprinkle little thats into our writing as if they were throw pillows on our furniture. “That” is a conjunction that connects dependent clauses to independent clauses. We need it if a subordinate clause uses conjunctions such as after, before, because, while and in addition to. For example: He said that because he likes hotel waffles so much, he intended to set the alarm clock on his phone before going to bed.

The AP Stylebook instructs us to use “that” “to introduce a dependent clause if the sentence sounds or looks awkward without it.” Here’s an example: I think that I am a robot. Another: I find that no one believes my robot claim.

Most of the time, we should also use the word “that” before certain verbs, including assert, declare, make clear, point out and state: I would like to point out that I haven’t mentioned Abraham Lincoln up until this point. Now you’re thinking about Abraham Lincoln.

Usually, we can omit “that” when a dependent clause follows a version of the verb “to say.” For example: Abraham Lincoln said he looked better without a mustache. Our inclination is probably to insert “that” after “said.” Also, rewrite a sentence if the word “that” appears back to back.

What have we learned so far? We only have a few reasons to omit the word “that.” In fact, the AP advises, “When in doubt, include that. Omission can hurt. Inclusion never does.” Does this mean we should use throw pillows with reckless abandon? Maybe – but don’t tell Marie Kondo. Or perhaps this is a lesson we can apply more broadly to our lives: Omission can hurt; inclusion never does.
