Vignes preps for 2015 triathlons

DISPATCHES Oh Christmas Tree – Wondering where to put your old Christmas tree? Sue Maki, manager with the Carmel utilities department, said Republic trash services will dispose of Christmas tree but the trash company asks that residents cut their trees in half. Carmel residents can leave trees on the curb on trash day up until the second week of January.

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Running had primarily been David Vignes’ form of exercise.

Yet the France native was starting to get bored with that grind. So in 2000, a good profile friend from his job at Walt Disney World (in Orlando) asked him to go swimming with him and to try a triathlon.

“I was miserable,” said Vignes of his first swimming session. “I had thought I have a pool in my house, that’s not a problem. But it’s not like playing with the kids in the pool. The first time I did 3,000 yards, I couldn’t get out of the pool, I was just exhausted.”

Fourteen years later, Vignes, now a Carmel resident, has mastered the pool and is a veteran of more than 40 triathlons.

The Olympic (or standard) triathlon consists of a 1.5 kilometer (0.93 mile) swim, 40-kilometer bicycle ride (25-mile) and 10-kilometer run (6.2 miles). Bicycling is Vignes’ best portion of the triathlon. It’s also the skill that comes the most naturally.

“When I was five years old, my parents didn’t take me to school, I would take my little bicycle on the sidewalk and go to school,” Vignes said. “When you live in France, you have to bicycle, there is no way around it.”

Vignes is the executive vice president of enterprise optimization for KAR Auction Services in Carmel.

“The simple way to describe my job is to ensure every dollar we spend, we do it most efficiently,” Vignes said.

Preparing for the triathlons helps Vignes stay in good health physically and mentally.

“It’s a very good way to clear my head,” Vignes said.

When he’s training, he’s able to focus on something other than pressures at work.

“For me it’s a way to disconnect and almost relax,” Vignes said. “Even when physically tired, after exercising I feel very good.”

Vignes joins weekly training bicycle rides that Nebo Ridge Bicycles conducts and swims at the Monon Community Center.

“Swimming is clearly my weaker sport,” he said.

“But I’m enjoying it more and more. I will never be as

good at swimming as I am bicycling. The more I train, the more I enjoy it.”

Vignes, who was injured part of this year and did just two triathlons, plans to do five triathlons in 2015, starting with the Carmel Sprint Triathlon (shorter distances than the standard triathlon). He plans to do two triathlons in Muncie, one in Eagle Creek Park in Indianapolis and one in downtown Indianapolis. Vignes estimates his sprint times are between 1 hour, 5 minutes to 1 hour, 10 minutes and for Olympic distances: 2 hours 45 minutes to 2 hours, 50 minutes.

Vignes has trained with Broad Ripple resident Hank Daunhauer, who was Vignes’ co-worker until January, for five years.

“He’s 52 and can absolutely keep up with me,” the 34-year-old Daunhauer said. “He’s pushed me a lot.

He’s my favorite person to ride bikes with because it’s hard to find someone who is your exact speed.

We’ve found a good pace together.”

“When you live in France, you have to bicycle, there is no way around it.”

A century worth living: Carmel’s Bowen celebrates 100 years

By Mark Robinson • robinson@youarecurrent.com He has seen plenty in his century on earth. World wars, the Depression, Prohibition and its repeal, the Cold War, space race, Watergate, 9/11 and more. Through it all, J.B. Bowen held true to his core beliefs and constructed a life resume and profile memory book as impressive as any around.

Bowen celebrated his 100th birthday Dec. 26 at Manor Care at Summer Trace in Carmel, where he has lived for nearly 13 years. Close to 200 family, friends, fellow residents, acquaintances and other well-wishers joined in to commemorate the occasion. The vastness of the array of people attending, in both ages and backgrounds, provided testament to the incredibly diverse life Bowen has led.

It’s a journey that’s seen the lifelong Indiana resident be a schoolteacher, musician, dancer, Navy medic, model, volunteer and more. And he’s far from done, evidenced by the fact he leads a stretching class three times a week for fellow Summer Trace residents, volunteers twice a week at St.Vincent Carmel Hospital and was named one of four 2014 Volunteers of the Year by the Hamilton County Council on Aging.

We should all hope to be as active, engaged and involved as Bowen is at 65 years old, much less 100.

“Someone asked me how I do this and it’s just the way I’ve been,” Bowen said at the birthday celebration that he concluded by singing three songs to guests. “I have a little saying every day to myself. I pray that my cup runneth over. I also say thank you, God, for all my blessings and forgive me for my sins.”

His father and a friend died in an auto accident less than three months before Jesse Batman “J.B.” Bowen was born in rural Ladoga in west central Indiana on Dec. 26, 1914. His mother remarried when he was 5 and J.B. grew up in Danville, where he was

president of the 1933 high school senior class. Along the way, he cultivated tap dancing and musical talents. He choreographed numerous shows in his one year at Indiana University, where one review tabbed him the “boy with the cyclone feet.”

Bowen returned to Danville to attend Central Normal College (which later became Canterbury College before closing in the 1950s), earning an education degree in 1938 that led to nearly four decades as a beloved schoolteacher. He served as a Navy medic in the Pacific during World War II, also becoming part of the U.S. Naval Hospital Blue Jackets band that played for dignitaries such as Eleanor Roosevelt and Adm. William Halsey.

After the war, he met his eventual wife Ruth, who served as a

surgical nurse in Europe during the conflict.

“Ruth really fought the war,” Bowen said with pride.

They were married in 1949 and had two children, remaining in Danville while J.B. taught mainly for Wayne Township schools on Indianapolis’ west side.

He remained active on the music scene, too. Bowen’s bands played in swanky Indianapolis places like the Columbia Club and old Claypool and Severin hotels. He lights up today when thinking of those days.

“I miss that more than teaching,” he admitted. “If I could stand behind a mic with that old tenor sax again and see all these people dancing, oh, it would be great.”

When J.B. retired from teaching in 1982, he began volunteering at the Indianapolis Artsgarden, Riley Hospital for Children, Indianapolis Repertory Theatre and Indianapolis City Center (an early version of the city’s convention and visitors bureau), among others. In the three decades since, he has given time to nearly 20 organizations, heeding his own creed: “If you retire, do something.

Get off your fanny.”

He moved to downtown Indy to become more involved in volunteering after Ruth died in 1987. He also became a successful senior model on the side, appearing in eight national magazine ads. He moved to Summer Trace in 2001 and remains in an independent apartment.

As for J.B.’s secret to longevity, his daughter said it’s a combination of factors.

“He’s very optimistic, he is a man of faith, he has a sense of humor,” Denis said. “He exercises but his diet is everything in moderation. He has some red wine and some dark chocolate just about every day. And I think good genes.”

ICC focused on seven priorities

By Mark Robinson • robinson@youarecurrent.com Area business leaders received a preview of potential hot topics during the upcoming 2015 Indiana Legislature sesgovernment sion when Kevin Brinegar, president and CEO of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, spoke at Oak Hill Mansion in Carmel.

Chamber of commerce members from throughout Hamilton County attended a breakfast last month, as did Donna Schaibley, recently named to replace Steve Braun as state representative from District 24 that covers parts of Carmel, Westfield, Zionsville and Sheridan.

Brinegar, a Noblesville resident who has been ICC president for 12 years, said his group is focused on seven priorities in the areas of education, infrastructure, labor relations and taxation, where its eight lobbyists will monitor and attempt to influence legislation.

Brinegar said the ICC would still like to see the state’s business property tax completely eliminated, “but it won’t be this year.” In the meantime, the ICC is behind legislation to have businesses that pay less than $200 annually in the tax be freed from doing so. He said that would cut more than half of the state’s 270,000 business filers off the list, yet it would only see a $10 million decrease in business property tax revenue of the $6.7 billion generated annually.

Another business-related focus is for a work-

sharing program that would allow an employee whose hours are reduced to receive some unemployment compensation. Currently, only those completely out of work in Indiana can access the unemployment system. The ICC favors legislation that would give employees whose workload has been reduced a proportionate amount of unemployment benefits. For instance, a 30 percent reduction in hours would yield 30 percent of full unemployment compensation. Employers would also have to maintain full benefits for the reduced-hours employees.

“There’s a majority of states that have adopted this legislation and we’d like Indiana to do that,” Brinegar said.

Roundtable to host Dirck

news@currentincarmel.com

The Hamilton County Civil War Roundtable will host Dr. Brian Dirck to speak on the topic of “Lincoln in Indiana,” on Jan. 21. diversion He will cover Lincoln from the time he arrived in Indiana at the age of six, until he left at the age of 21. These were some of the most important, informative years of his life, and the Professor will address just what he saw and did while a Hoosier: his upbringing, education (or lack thereof), relationships with his parents and neighbors, and some of the social, cultural and religious influences of his Indiana life on his later years as a politician and president.

His most recent writing, “Lincoln the Lawyer” explores the origins of Lincoln’s desire to practice law, his legal education, his partnerships with John Stuart, Stephen Logan and William Herndon, and the maturation of his far-flung practice in the 1840s and 1850s. Brian Dirck provides a context for law as it was practiced in mid-century Illinois and evaluates Lincoln’s merits as an attorney by comparison with his peers.

This fascinating history also examines Lincoln’s clientele, how he charged his clients and how he addressed a judge and jury, as well as his views on legal ethics and the supposition that he never defended a client he knew to be guilty.

Other books Dirck has written or edited are “Lincoln & Davis: Imagining America, 1809-

1865,” “Waging War on Trial: A Handbook with Cases, Laws, and Documents;” “Lincoln Emancipated: The President and the Politics of Race;” “The Executive Dr. Brian Dirck will speak on Jan. Branch of 21. (Submitted photo) Federal Government: People, Process, and Politics; Lincoln the Lawyer,” which won the Benjamin Barondess Award from the New York Civil War Roundtable; “Abraham Lincoln and White America;” and “Lincoln and the Constitution.”

Future presentations to be hosted by the Hamilton County Civil War Roundable include: Feb. 18, Phil DeHaven, Topic: The Woman Who Would Be First Lady; March 18, Mary Anne Matthews, Topic: Mrs. President: A Visit With Mary Todd Lincoln; April 15, Dave Walker, Topic: Portraying Jeff Davis; May 20, Margaret Hobson, Topic: The Iron Men of Indiana’s 44th Regiment.

Doors open at 7 p.m., Lily Theatre, Conner Prairie Interactive History Park, 13400 Allisonville Rd. There is no charge for the event and guests are welcome.

There must be hundreds, maybe even thousands. Kids, who woke up on Christmas morning over the years to learn volunteerism they were the owner of a brand new shiny bicycle. Since 1979, if it was a Schwinn, chances are it came from Mr. Nick Kestner. He must sleep well at night knowing how many hours of enjoyment he provided to kids racing to the end of the block, couples getting their Sunday afternoon exercise or teenagers pedaling to their friend’s house.

Nick Kestner was honored at the annual Carmel Chamber of Commerce Images of Excellence Awards Luncheon. His daughter Ceci Trenshaw said, “He was truly touched. I know he had no idea about the award, but his biggest surprise was seeing both of his daughters in the audience.” Lici Lytle made the trip from Chicago and Ceci is a teacher in the Carmel School System.

Nick Kestner’s name became the fourth so inscribed on the Harold Kaiser Lifetime Achievement Award. People who receive the Kaiser do so because their body of community service work extends over decades. The Chamber recognized Nick for his impressive record of past service, noting that he isn’t done yet.

Kestner is a taskforce member for the Homeplace, Old Town and Range Line Road overlays. A Carmel Rotarian and past president. A multi-year

Dad’s Club sponsor. He served on the Carmel Plan Commission at two different times in his life. A Chamber of Commerce board member. A Gleaner’s volunteer. He has a Carmel Range Line Road pioneer award to his credit.

He is best known as Mr. Parks, having always been a big supporter of parks, trails and bicycles. He was a charter member of the Monon Greenway Committee. A member of Carmel’s first Parks Committee. A long-time member of the Carmel-Clay Parks Board. He was President of the Central Park Building Commission and a key player in the construction of the Monon Trail. Nick was there when they started the Hamilton County Alternative Task Force to study and promote the construction of multi-use paths throughout the county.

If you attend any of Carmel’s bike appropriate festivals and you utilize the free Pedal-N-Park; thank Nick Kestner. He is also the guy who built the crowd pleasing 10-person bike for the CarmelFest parade.

Kestner accepted the award humbly and went on with his day, most likely imagining how much more could be done. Good Day Carmel.

minutes with Diane Moran

By David Nance Meet Diane Moran, Carmel resident.

Why do you like living in Carmel?

I believe it would be possible, by God’s grace, to be thankful, satisfied and content to live anywhere in the world the Lord chose, and I am thankful to the Lord that we live in Carmel.

Carmel, along with its many commendable surrounding communities, has hard-working neighbors who maintain the beauty of their properties, who make an effort to know each other and who are helpful and law-abiding.

Carmel has two distinctive things that are a special treat for me: 1) smooth roads with roundabouts and 2) Flowing Well Park with its scenic trails and delicious drinking water.

What is your favorite restaurant around Carmel, and what is your favorite dish there?

Carmel and the surrounding areas have so many fine clean, tasty restaurants with hardworking owners and employees who strive for excellence that I would look forward with anticipation to dining at any one of them.

What is your favorite movie of all time, or one you have seen recently that you would recommend?

“The 180 Movie” portrays heroism. It is a 33-minute documentary free online at www.180movie.com.

What is your favorite book?

I have feasted on the Bible for 30 years. Many good translations are available to read or listen to at www.Biblegateway.com.

What is your favorite style of music and artist?

To God be the glory that He has inspired His children to write, perform and record many inspired pieces of music, both hymns and Contemporary Christian.

Where would your dream vacation be, and why?

I have refreshing mini-vacations almost every day, when I regularly spend time reading my Bible and soaking in the awesome presence of the Lord. “In Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forever.”

(Psalm 16:11) I take an entire day’s vacation once a week, when I gather with my Christian brothers and sisters at a local church in the morning to sing, network about what we see God doing in our lives, pray together and listen to His Word.

St.Vincent joins Medicare ACO St.Vincent, a member of Ascension, the nation’s largest Catholic and nonprofit health system, has been selected as one of 89 new Medicare Shared Savings Program Accountable Care Organizations.

Doctors, hospitals and healthcare providers establish ACOs in order to work together to provide higher-quality coordinated care to their patients, while helping to slow healthcare cost growth. As of Jan. 1, St.Vincent will be one of 405 ACOs participating in the Shared Savings Program. Beneficiaries seeing health care providers in ACOs have the freedom to choose doctors inside or outside of the ACO.

The ACO plan that St.Vincent is partnering with is MissionPoint Indiana LLC – a clinically integrated network of physicians, hospitals, outpatient facilities, nurses and supporting caregivers who share a common goal: help people get well and stay well.

“This program allows us to take better care of our most vulnerable patients, providing them with the support they need to get well and stay well. To truly be successful, we must go beyond episodic care and put a greater emphasis on the whole continuum,’’ stated St.Vincent CEO Jonathan Nalli.

Kline family honors Amy

By Terri Spilman • news@currentincarmel.com

Thanks to friends and family of the late Amy Kline and the many local businesses who donated goods and services, the scholarship Second Annual Wine Night held at the Ritz Charles last month raised enough money to establish a second Amy Kline Memorial Scholarship through the Carmel Education Foundation.

The family also increased the scholarship amount from $1,000 to $2,500 each which is awarded to a Carmel High School senior that will attend Indiana University to study education, and is also active in both school and community activities.

“It won’t be perpetual but we thought it would

As far as

be more meaningful to whoever gets it,” commented Spencer Kline.

According to Kline, not only did the event raise the $25,000 required to endow a second scholarship in his late wife Amy’s name who was a six-time PTO president and avid community volunteer, funds were also raised to allow for a donation to the chemo ward at St.Vincent hospital where Amy spent so much time as a patient.

Kline would like to thank everyone for their gracious donations and said “people really came through” to make the event a success.

Fred Baade closes barber shop after more than 60 years cutting hair

About Fred Baade • Hobbies: Woodworking, watching old war movies and reading books about war.

• Currently reading: “Killing Patton” by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard.

• Favorite Carmel restaurants for Baade and his wife: MCL, Puccini’s, Matt the Miller’s and Bub’s Burgers & Ice Cream. The couple was disappointed when Shapiro’s closed in Carmel.

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Fred Baade learned how to cut hair at age 14 in Germany near the end of World War II. “Hitler was still in charge cover story when I started cutting hair,” Baade said.

There wasn’t much choice for Baade in his town of Kiel.

“We didn’t have as much schooling as others,” Baade said. “We were bombed and shot at a lot.”

Baade said some jobs available to him other than barber would be a tailor or a hotel clerk.

Baade was born in Milwaukee and then his parents moved to Indianapolis. But his parents moved back to their native Germany in 1934. Baade and his sister were U.S. citizens. In 1951, Baade saw in the newspaper that he had a chance to return to the U.S. since he was born there.

“You had to be under 21 to save your citizenship,” Baade said. “I had an American passport.

When I told my dad, he said, ‘Your mom won’t let you.’ I said ‘Well, who stopped her?’ I kept working on her to let me. I said ‘Mom if I don’t like it over there I can come back. I just have to work hard to get the money.’”

Although he didn’t speak any English, Baade returned to Indiana and started cutting hair at Fort Harrison. With the help of an army sergeant who knew German, he began to learn English. He has been here ever since.

Baade, who turned 85 on Jan. 5, closed his Indianapolis shop in the St.Vincent’s Professional Office Building (8402 Harcourt Rd.) in late December. He had been there more than 39 years, opening on Nov. 25, 1975.

Baade owned a five-chair barber shop at Kessler and College, but doctors, including his friend, Dr. Charlie Van Tassel, convinced him to move farther north to the Professional Building. He finally agreed but it took him some time to sell his shop.

Baade knows the demands for an old-fashioned barber have been in decline for years.

“Things are slow and business isn’t that good,” said Baade, a Carmel resident for more than 48 years. “I have mixed emotions.”

The building’s garage is under construction and Baade said many of his customers are

Baade lived in Kiel on the northern border of Germany before moving to Indiana at age 14.

older and in wheelchairs or using walkers. Plus Baade’s lease was up and rent was going up.

Baade said he will still make house calls for customers who can’t get out, and will continue to cut patients’ hair in the hospital and in nursing homes.

“I have people say, ‘You are not going to drop me now are you?’” Baade said. “I like to be busy. I

have to make sure I exercise every day to stay in shape. I use the treadmill.”

Although Baade charges $15 a hair cut, he said house call customers usually pay $20 to make up for gas.

“The fact that he is still looking for work because he enjoys it so much is a testament to his work ethic and character,” said his daughter-in-

law Kelly Baade.

Kelly is married to Erik, the only child of Fred and Herta, who have been married for 54 years.

“He loves people,” said 53-year-old Erik, a Carmel High School graduate and Westfield resident.

“He always said he couldn’t retire because he couldn’t stand being at home and sitting still.”

Kelly said Fred and Herta, 79, both seem ageless to her.

“I have to remind myself sometimes of their age,” Kelly said. “Fred likes to smile and wink and say ‘I’m only 42!’”

After returning to the U.S., Baade had a stint in the U.S. Army and was stationed in Germany.

Baade met Herta, in German Park on the south side of Indianapolis.

“You couldn’t find more nicer, giving people,” Kelly said. “Fred is always positive. You can rely on him, no matter what to have a smile.”

Baade, who will likely find a place to donate his barber’s chair, mirror and other fixtures, said he enjoys visiting with people.

“I like my work,” he said. “I never complained about my work. A lot of people complain about their work. I always say, ‘Well, get out and do something you like.’”

Many of his customers have been coming to him for years, including former Indianapolis Mayor William Hudnut, who first came to see Baade before his first inauguration as mayor in 1976. It was the first of 82-year-old Hudnut’s four terms.

Hudnut, who lives in the Washington, D.C., area with his wife Beverly, came to see Baade on Dec. 12, two days before his statue was unveiled at Hudnut Commons.

Hudnut was introduced to Baade’s shop by Mayflower CEO and chairman Johnny B. Smith, a mutual friend and Baade’s customer.

“I love to come in and hear Fred’s stories and talk to him about the old days,” said Hudnut, who makes sure to visit whenever he is in town.

“Fred is so kind to have the picture of our son’s first hair cut on his wall. He’s 22 now.”

“They love their city very much. I've heard many comments from them about how Carmel has grown and changed over the years, but I've never heard a negative comment about the change from them, which is unusual for older people.”

Reasonable resolutions

FR O M T H E BACKSHOP

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Calendar turns and hopes soar New Year’s greetings, folks! We hope your holidays were fulfilling in multiple ways. As last week’s Current detailed a snapshot look ahead to this year, we’re compelled to offer you one of our own, and it’s a bit different. So without further delay, our top hopes for 2015: Transparency in local government – Never should the citizenry have to wonder if what is being discussed or presented is the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The money our elected officials appropriate actually is your money, and the story behind its allocation is as important as the target of is expenditure.

Fairness on the campaign trail – The primary election is five months away. There are several races that will be hotly contested.

Some mainstays are going to be challenged by newcomers. Just how everyone comports himself and herself will go a long way toward earning the voters’ respect and, perhaps, votes. We’ve seen things turn ugly in our area, and it doesn’t have to be that way.

Commitment to the arts – This is not what we’re asking of government; it’s what we are asking of you. There are multitudes of what we call “art outings” in our midst that feature incredible talents in visual, performing, literary and other forms of art. Our independent market research tells us the arts are vitally important to our readership, but sometimes attendance at art-related opportunities is lacking. Make it a point to participate on one or more levels.

Having each other’s backs – From I-65 to the west, U.S. 31 in the center and Ind. 37/I-69 to the east, sadly we have thoroughfares that the bad guys recognize as easy getaway routes. If you see suspicious vehicles, persons or criminal activities in our area, let the police know forthwith. We’re all fortunate to live in well-protected communities, but none is impervious. “Deputize” yourself and make a difference.

And now a belated toast to you for a safe, healthful and fulfilling year ahead: Salut!

Be careful amongst traffic

Commentary by Terry Anker

In a time when most of us keep the Internet, via our trusty smartphones, in our pockets, we have immediate access to the world’s accumulated “wisdom” anytime and anywhere. And with each new day, our inboxes burgeon with unsolicited instruction from strangers purporting to be close acquaintances – financial advice, relationship advice, market advice, spiritual advice, dining advice, shopping advice – we are all fully advised.

For some, a few words, slogan or bumper sticker is all that’s required to help them course correct. Others have bookshelves filled with selfhelp tomes. They cannot get enough insight in their quest to stay on the straight and narrow.

For me, it falls somewhere in between. The truisms stuck to the car in front of me in traffic (we are most often reminded to COEXIST) are often polite enough; but they fail to adequately inspire.

Yet chasing wisdom from the latest faddish book only has me seeking my cheese or looking for

the right seat on the bus. Give me a casual lunch with a good friend. Wisdom best comes from exchange with smart people who care enough to engage in our lives – directly!

Still, we all seem to be seeking direction. How can we lose weight? How can we live a better life? How can we find our way? Could it be that the answers elude us because they are too complicated? Or, could it be simply that we are unwilling (or unable) to take action? A recently-married young associate asked for advice on a happy home. Decide what matters. Really, do we care about guest towels, decorative soaps or rules about feet on the sofa? If we limited our contention to the few things that are required for our happiness, couldn’t we live a good deal easier?

Should we be careful to avoid being care full?

Q U O T E O F T H E W E E K We are masters of the unsaid words, but slaves of those we let slip out.

– Winston Churchil

It’s that time again, folks, to set ourselves up for failure and criticism and perhaps even an infinity scarf of guilt should we fail in our lofty endeavors. I’m speaking of course of making New Year’s resolutions.

Don’t get me wrong. I think the idea of taking a moment for reflection to see where changes and/or improvements can be made in our lives is wonderful. You can start over, recreate yourself and set goals to encourage a better you. The problem I have with NYR’s is that they are just too darn impractical.

For starters, most of us are coming off a four-week marathon of family, shopping, traffic, flu-like symptoms, meat and booze, and in the post-race tent, we are in absolutely no condition to be analyzing our behavior. We need to hydrate and rest, and simply recover from our ordeal before making promises about weight loss and financial security. February 1st is a far better date to be thinking critically about the forthcoming year. We could call them the Super Bowl Resolutions instead!

Another complaint I have is the time span of NYR’s. 365 days is way too long. To wit, if I don’t go back and reread this annual column in July, I will have already forgotten 90 percent of what I’m supposed to be gunning for. Like many of you, I’m simply trying to keep my children alive and show up to work with matching shoes each day; I have absolutely no extra hours to even ponder renovating the carpeted master bath (carpeted!) or training for The Mini, let alone actually doing them. Perhaps whittling it down to New Week’s Rez’s would be more manageable.

And let’s be honest. I’m never going to successfully meet all of my NYR’s anyway, which for me, leads to guilt and self-criticism. I’m a List Girl, and if I put a commitment to paper, I feel compelled to check it off. Until I do, that “thing” will not only haunt me, but judge me in its haughty two-dimensional space, wreaking frustration and anxiety in my already chaotic world.

So this year, I’m trying something new. I’m not planning to make any New Year’s promises right away, but rather let a few potential ones simmer while I get my exhausted family back on track. Then I’ll select three that I can reasonably make headway on by April. At spring break, I’ll reassess, adjust where necessary, and continue on for the second quarter. Furthermore, there will be no evidence, written or otherwise, of my chosen goals. True, this will mean less accountability, but hopefully and more importantly, also less stress.

Let’s resolve to fill 2015 with achievable, short-term objectives. Go team! Peace out.

What’s the name of your favorite cartoon character?

Are you teetering between Bart Simpson and Sponge Bob? If you’re from my humor generation you might be torn between Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck.

This was the dilemma I faced this holiday season while creating a security profile to bank online. I was asked a series of personal questions so if I forgot my password, they could confirm my identity by matching my answers.

Because the questions are all about me, I won’t have to scribble my responses in black marker on the side of my printer where I already store dozens of secret passwords. When I check my balances at 3:00 a.m. after a bout of insomnia or a six-pack of Bud Light, I can enter my code incorrectly up to three times, but they’ll still allow access if I can remember the following: My most unique characteristic? I vacillate between feeling unbelievably funny and romantically dashing. On a bad day, I’d have to go with incredibly annoying. That gives me a one-out-ofthree chance of getting that right. This all depends on what day I forget my password. Better not use that one.

My favorite fictional character? I couldn’t even answer that question on my final exam in

American Literature. Okay, how about Moby Dick?

Wait, they might not accept animals. Just to look smart I’m going to say King Lear. But I know if I get asked this under pressure after midnight, I’m going to end up saying Bugs Bunny again.

My favorite flower? I don’t have a favorite flower. If I indicate rose, there’s a good chance I’d say chrysanthemum the next time. Well, maybe not. I don’t even know how to spell it.

Where did you go on your honeymoon? Out West, somewhere in California. It’s been 35 years. Give me a break.

My first girlfriend? I’m going to say it was my wife, Mary Ellen. That’s not true, of course, but if I said Cindy or Ginny, she’d never let me forget it. But I would forget it. Which means I can’t pay my bills online because I can’t remember my password.

What college did you apply to but not attend?

Well, that would be all the colleges that rejected me, so let’s see: Syracuse, Northwestern, Boston University…

This is embarrassing. Thanks, anyway. I’d rather be overdrawn.

By Joseph Knoop • news@currentincarmel.com Popular stand-up comedian and Bob & Tom radio regular Dave Dugan will perform at Bub’s Burgers & Ice Cream restaurant at 210 W. Main St. in Carmel, IN on January 16. comedy Dugan, known for his voice work on Bob & Tom as the Gruff, short-tempered Bart McAllister, has long been a fan of developing both his comedy and voiceacting chops.

“I deliver the bulk of voice-over from my closet-sized studio, and this is also where I finalize writing a great deal of the comedy material,” Dugan said. “I like this setup because it is very isolated and allows me to focus on the project at hand. I also like, and need, the live comedy performances, whether they are on stage or at an event somewhere or as a guest with Bob and Tom, just to see if I have any social skills left after spending so much time in the isolation of a soundproof closet.”

Dugan’s unique brand of stand-up comedy has landed him onstage at numerous corporate events

and comedy tours, including appearances on Comedy Central, HBO, FOX and the Arsenio Hall Show.

Dugan avoided kindergarten after his parents moved to Carmel, where children weren’t required to attend before moving into the first grade, unlike most Indianapolis schools. He attributes a large portion of his comedy influences to his parents.

“It’s inbred,” Dugan said. “Wait, I don’t mean to say I’m inbred, and I have the non-webbed toes to prove it. I guess I’m trying to say what I do is a hybrid of both my mom and dad’s humor. Dad with his clever, dry and twisted humor and my mom with her humble, yet expressive, self-effacing humor, never thinking she was being funny, but often hilarious. She preferred others being in the spotlight and was the perfect audience with her distinctive, contagious laugh. I think down deep, she was always in it for the laughs.”

Though he’s appeared on many shows and lived as far as Los Angeles, Dugan says he always missed being away from Carmel.

“When coming back for visits, I can’t describe how excited I would get to see family and friends

that still lived here, to see what changes in town had occurred,” Dugan said. “I kept moving back here, so obviously it must be very close to my heart. It will always seem like home. Now there is always something for me to do. Non-stop laps on a roundabout is one of my favorite pastimes.

Maybe I should have gone to kindergarten.”

Dugan is currently part of the “Cabin Fever Comedy Tour,” which makes its first stop at Bub’s Burgers & Ice Cream in Carmel. Dugan hopes for as enjoyable a tour as his most recent stops performing for company Christmas parties.

“One was at a large company in Northern Indiana and most of the employees were Amish,” Dugan said. “15 minutes into the show, one of the gentlemen approached the stage and asked if I would read a note describing a vehicle that was illegally parked and blocking the catering truck from leaving. Midway through reading the note in front of these 600 people, I realized it was my car, and as a reflex said on mic, “Oh, that’s mine.”

Dugan is also currently working on a new comedy album, saying he hopes to have it released before the end of winter.​

What’s better than pasta?

Commentary by Ceci Martinez We are lucky to live near a culinary mecca, Chicago. In a recent trip my husband and I, after exploring the city all day and with much anticipated excitement about our dinner, ended up in a busy street corner discovering by accident “Eataly Chicago Restaurant.” This is a place where you can experience amazing food from the moment you walk in the door, with 63,000 square feet of space, dozens of aisles of grocery, 22 different restaurants and bars, you can easily spend half a day in this food palace! The mission statement in their pasta station is: “One of the things that makes pasta so perfect is how simple it is”. This delicizioso dish “Spaghetti with Lemon” is exactly that! It’s a perfect recipe for the busy new year.

SPAGHETTI WITH LEMON Total: 25 minutes / Serves: 4 Ingredients: Coarse salt, 1 lb (454g) thick spaghetti, 1/2 stick unsalted butter, cut into 4 pieces, softened, 3 ounces, Grana Padano cheese, grated (1 cup), 2 teaspoons freshly cracked pepper, plus more of garnish, 3/4 ounce Pecorino Romano cheese, grated (1/4 cup), 1 large lemon (preferably Meyer), High quality extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling Directions: Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add pasta, and cook until al dente. Reserve 1 cup pasta water before drain-

ing. Transfer pasta to a big skillet (preferably nonstick). Add butter and 1/2 cup pasta water.

Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. The heat helps the starch in the water meld with the fat from the butter, which prevents the Grana Padano from becoming stringy in the finished dish. Reduce heat to low, and mix in Grana Padano and cracked pepper; the cheese will melt into the buttery water, creating a sauce as the pasta finishes cooking. Toss pasta with tongs to thoroughly coat it with sauce. Keep everything at a gentle simmer just until cheese melts and sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, then stir in Pecorino Romano, (always add Pecorino off direct heat; it clumps when cooked.)

Zest lemon over the pasta. If pasta looks dry, toss it with a bit more pasta water until it has a glossy coating. Serve pasta and drizzle each plate with oil and lemon juice, and garnish with more cracked pepper. Serve immediately.

Paradise Bakery now closed

By Mark Robinson • robinson@youarecurrent.com Clay Terrace in Carmel will see a change in bakery establishments in 2015. Paradise Bakery & Café closed its doors restaurants on Dec. 30, with Corner Bakery Café expected to open its first Indiana location in the same place in the spring.

Paradise is owned by Panera Bread Co. A manager at the Paradise location in Clay Terrace confirmed the bakery’s last day of operation was Dec. 30, but referred questions about why the

location is closing to Panera headquarters in St. Louis.

Amanda Cardosi, a spokesperson for Panera Bread, said of the closing of Paradise: "For years, the Paradise Bakery & Café at Clay Terrace Mall has been privileged to serve and feel the support of the Carmel community. With the expiration of our lease, we have decided to close this bakery-café on Dec. 30. We will continue serving customers at our four other Indianapolis locations and hope to provide new opportunities for all associates and managers who wish to continue with our company."

Flix Brewhouse plans spring opening

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Schedule for a spring 2015 opening in Carmel, Flix Brewhouse is trying to create the best of both worlds for movie lovers.

Foodies won’t have to rely on microwaved hot dogs and molten nacho restaurants cheese for a snack. This new theater at 2160 E. 116th St. will offer upscale dining options, with items like ahi tuna salad, ravioli Bolognese and rosemary chicken potato pizza. About a dozen craft beers are brewed on site.

For cinephiles, there are eight screens showing first-run movies with projector technology available at about only a dozen theaters nationwide. Dining shouldn’t interrupt the feature presentation; each server is trained to be as quiet as possible. Once the movie has started, orders are placed using notepads and servers are summoned with a silent call-button system.

“We call all of our servers, ‘Server Ninjas’ because they are in all black and very quiet and very subtle,” said Greg Johnson, director of marketing for Flix Brewhouse.

The new location at Merchants Square – near where Petco used to be – will be the company’s third location. They claim to be the only first run movie theatre in the world to incorporate a fully functioning microbrewery. Johnson said there are about six different core beers, including an IPA, a Belgian Red and a 10-day Scottish Ale,

“We call all of our servers, ‘Server Ninjas’ because they are in all black and very quiet and very subtle,” said Greg Johnson, director of marketing for Flix Brewhouse. (Submitted photo)

along with six to eight rotating seasonal brews.

There will be more than 30 guest taps from breweries all over.

While dining is an important part of their business model, Johnson said the company also recognizes the need for any movie theater in this part of town. There’s no minimum and you don’t have to buy food to watch a movie at the theater. Seats are assigned when you buy a ticket.

Movies will play throughout the day and not just at meal times.

Johnson said their executive chef helped launch California Pizza Kitchen nationwide and the menu is “designed to be better than just typical theater food.” Based on the other locations, options will likely include chicken fried chicken and biscuits, steak fajita tacos, grilled chili-lime chicken and Baja fish burritos.

An exact opening date hasn’t been set. For more information, visit www.flixbrehouse.com.

Computers, video games, smartphones, tablets and television–you name it, and today’s children have access to it. wellness Now more than ever, parents are managing “screen time,” weighing pros and cons and striving to understand both potential harm and benefits.

First and foremost, it’s important for parents to be good role models for their children when it comes to using electronic devices, including use of phones around other people, especially during conversations.

While age-related circumstances vary, screen time has become an issue that parents deal with at every stage of a child’s life. Here are some practical guidelines for different childhood stages: • Infancy through preschool – Never underestimate the developmental benefits of personal interaction with children in the first years of life. With this in mind, it’s important to ensure electronic devices don’t replace one-on-one time with your child. Look for apps and interactive learning games that you and your child can enjoy together, and make an effort to talk with your child about what you’re seeing and doing on screen. Also remember that young children learn the most from play in the three-dimensional world in which they live.

• School-aged children – Screen-time concerns for children at this stage center on overstimulation. Kids this age tend to get excited about technology, so it’s important to set limits on screen time and ensure that

if children are using electronic resources for school, they are truly learning from them and not just experimenting.

• Teenagers – Social media and texting have become primary methods of socializing for today’s teenagers. To prepare, it’s important for parents to set limits and expectations early for phone use and texting to instill familiarity and avoid misunderstanding. Be sure to monitor your teen’s use of social media.

For children of every age, restrict screen time during meals and before bed. Brightly lit screens can disrupt sleep cycles of both children and adults. Be sure to carve out personal time–away from screens and other distractions–with your children. Nurture the bond with family and enhance your interpersonal relationships by prioritizing the special times your family relates through conversation, laughter and shared experiences.

Have a holiday hangover?

Commentary by Cory Black Feel like you have had too much to eat and too much of the wrong kinds of food this holiday season? We often loosen the nutrition belt for holiday celebrations, which means big meals, lots of sweets and extra helpings of deserts, and who can forget the eggnog.

It’s a great time to relax and enjoy, but I think we can all say we all have a bit of a holiday hangover, feeling sluggish and heavy. It’s now a great time to reset your body with an herbal cleanse.

This will have the benefit of feeling lighter, refreshed, and you’ll get a tune up of the body’s systems with a healthier metabolism and energy.

Combined with a healthy diet including fresh green foods, fruits and sources of fiber, an herbal cleanse will work to release retained water, flush toxins built up in fat stores and cleanse and support the overworked liver. Key supplements to look for in an herbal cleanse are dandelion root, chlorella and milk thistle.

Dandelion root is a natural diuretic that stimulates the release of retained water from the body, which can be several extra pounds particu-

larly if the diet has been rich in sodium. Along with drinking plenty of fluids, this helps flush the body during the cleansing process.

A type of fresh water green algae, chlorella has the ability to bind to chemicals and toxins and allow the body to easily discrete. Chlorella extracts are mix of amino acids, vitamins, sugars and nucleic acids that also have the benefit of helping produce good bacteria that supports healthy digestion.

Milk thistle is an herb with potent antioxidants called flavonoids that help support liver cell function and reduce inflammation, and will help the liver repair and regrow. A healthy liver can more optimally perform its functions for digestion, metabolism and immunity.

So if you are feeling that holiday hangover, an herbal cleanse will help push your body’s reset button and get a start in the New Year with a healthier you.

Pharaoh Ramses II with Horus, Isis and Osiris at Abydos. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Abydos: Triads and Trinities Commentary by Don Knebel

The Great Temple at Abydos is famous for its richly detailed scenes of Egyptian gods. Those scenes can help explain why many Muslims believe the Christian doctrine of the travel Trinity has pagan origins.

Abydos, the burial site of pharaohs as early as 3,000 B.C., later became associated with Osiris, a legendary pharaoh considered god of the afterlife. Popular stories told how Osiris had been killed and then miraculously fathered the falcon-faced god Horus with his sister/wife Isis. Pharaohs saw themselves as earthly manifestations of Horus and aspired to live on like Osiris after their deaths.

In about 1280 B.C., Pharaoh Seti I built a temple on the west bank of the Nile at Abydos to honor himself and the triad of Osiris, Isis and Horus.

Reliefs show Seti I and the gods, with Osiris depicted with a curved beard reflecting his death, Isis crowned with the sun disk and Horus shown holding a cross-shaped ankh. Seti’s son Ramses II, often considered the pharaoh of the Exodus, expanded the temple, showing himself with the Abydos triad in similar, but less well-executed, scenes. The well-preserved temple walls also contain a unique list of earlier pharaohs, minus

the female Hatshepsut and the short-lived Tutankhamen.

When the Greeks conquered Egypt, they took home from Abydos images and stories of Osiris, Isis and Horus. Isis became popular throughout the Greek and later Roman world as the “Queen of Heaven” and “Mother of God.” The Roman Catholic Church later adopted these titles for Mary, the mother of Jesus. Artists depicted Mary as Isis, with an Egyptian-style sun crown.

Early paintings of Mary with Jesus on her lap mimicked temple scenes of Isis nurturing Horus.

As a result of these titles and images, Muhammad mistakenly concluded that the Christian Trinity consists of God, Mary and Jesus, which he repudiated as a pagan idea. The Quran also denounces any trinity including Mary.

The carvings in the temple of Seti I, the finest remaining examples of Egyptian bas-relief, are reason enough to visit Abydos. Seeing the bases for reconstructing the order of pharaohs and for confusion over the Holy Trinity is a bonus.

“Our mission includes recognizing opportunities to support the performing arts in our community.”

Removing the master bath garden tub for a larger shower

Commentary by Larry Greene

EXISTING BATHROOM: The owners of this home located in the Centennial subdivision in Westfield, had lived with blueprint for their existing master improvement bathroom for nine years.

“The original bathroom functioned okay; however, we quickly grew tired of the cosmetics. The primary goal was to enlarge the shower area and maintain a smaller tub area.”

EXPANDED SHOWER & FREE-STANDING TUB: The large garden tub and existing shower surround was removed to create the new layout of the expanded shower and free standing tub.

The plumbing was modified for the new location of the tub and shower fixtures. The exterior wall was bumped out approximately two inches and properly insulated to prevent frozen pipes.

Framing was then completed for the two shower niches, corner bench and shower pan.

COORDINATING TILE & GRANITE: “We wanted our bathroom to feel like a warm and relaxing spa-getaway.” To achieve this look, the homeowners chose “Vetro Blanco” tile for their shower wall which contrasts beautifully with the tile used for the accent band and niches. The vertical installation of the shower tile and accent band not only adds visual interest to the shower, but also creates an illusion of height. The Shanxi Black Flame floor tile compliments the different

before & after

RESULT: “We absolutely love the material selections. The variety of textures and colors makes the space simple, warm and comfortable. The shower is by far the favorite of our family. Our son especially enjoys watching television while taking a shower.”

colors and textures in the shower. Caledonia granite used for the shower bench, wall cap, niche caps and threshold provides a cohesive look with the double vanity.

VANITY DETAILS: Designed for functionality, the double vanity not only provides extra storage space, but it also was designed to keep the countertop clutter-free. The center full-extension drawer stack allows for additional storage of toiletries and cosmetics. An elevated tower cabinet is perfect for storing linens and supplies.
