HSE schools on lockdown – On Feb. 11 an alert from Hamilton Southeastern Schools, the Fishers Police Dept. requested all Hamilton Southeastern and Noblesville schools be placed on perimeter lockdown as a result of an investigation surrounding threats on social media. The alert said the request came after a “non-specific social media post.� “Perimeter lockdown is a part of HSE’s normal daily procedure, but all HSE campuses also are restricting outside recess and PE until further notice from Fishers Police Dept. We are in contact with FPD and will update the school community as more information becomes available,� the HSE school district stated in a release, at the time.

Major changes for ISTEP

By Zach Manges “ ]Tfb/RdaaT]cX]UXbWTab R^\

Indiana students may be seeing some major changes to their ISTEP+ tests this year, though they may not be filling in as many bubbles with heavy EDUCATION dark marks as initially planned.

The 2015 ISTEP+ test, to be administered to more than 400,000 students in grades three through eight, was originally expected to undergo changes that would’ve lengthened the exam by as much as seven hours, more than doubling its size from previous years.

The lengthened test in part resulted from the IDOE’s lack of a pilot test that would’ve sampled the validity of questions on a smaller subset of students before issuing it to the entire state. “Since the department of education didn’t do the pilot test, as it said it would, they are making the whole spring ISTEP+ a pilot. That means they will determine which questions will apply to the student’s score after they grade the results,� stated Marc Lotter, director of external relations for the Indiana State Board of Education. “When the state board asked the DOE about this in September,

they said it would only add a few questions. As you can see, it did a lot more than that.�

On Feb. 9, the DOE was taken to task by Gov. Mike Pence, who issued an executive order to cut the length of the exam back down to around six hours. “Parents and teachers across Indiana are stunned and outraged at this news, and so am I,� Pence said during a press conference. “I am committed to seeing this test through and to bring common sense to shorten it for Hoosier families.�

In order to find ways to reduce test times, officials are in contact with nationally-recognized experts on assessments which, according to Pence’s statements, may include making the social studies and reading portions of the exam more concise. However, in spite of the executive order, final say on the length of the test still rests with state superintendent Glenda Ritz and the DOE. Hamilton Southeastern schools continue to prepare for the exam. “HSE is actively preparing the students for the ISTEP testing environment. We will wait further instruction from the DOE and Gov. Pence,� said Bev Smith, HSE director of school and community relations.

Festival designs now accepted

By Nancy Edwards “ ]Tfb/RdaaT]cX]UXbWTab R^\ The 27th annual T-shirt design contest for the Fishers Freedom Festival is currently accepting drawings from any CONTEST student, Kindergarten through eighth grade, residing in the Hamilton Southeastern district.

This year’s theme, “Where Families and Friends Unite,� was chosen by the 40-plus volunteers who participate in the festival each year, according to Jennifer Kehl, executive director of the Fishers Freedom Festival. “The event is to celebrate bringing everyone together and enjoying a weekend of family activities that are (mostly) free so that people of all economic levels can enjoy the event without spending a lot of money,� Kehl said.

Drawings may include up to four colors, with the exception of white, as the T-shirts are white. Kehl also said that judges look for creativity, and a design that would be easily reproducible.

Fishers police tracking down facts after attack on jogger ]Tfb/RdaaT]cX]UXbWTab R^\ The Fishers Police Department is investigating an attack on a jogger in the Sunblest CRIME Neighborhood (116th Street and Holland Drive).

The FPD issued a crime watch alert following an attack on a jogger shortly before 7 p.m. Feb. 10. The victim reported that she was jogging along Holland Drive. As she approached the intersection of Sunblest Boulevard South, she ob-

served a man standing in the tree line. The man ran towards her and grabbed her around the head and neck. The victim’s dog barked and the suspect ran away. The victim was not injured.

EDUCATION: FAMILY:

Ball State University

Husband: Ronnie, Children: Son Augden, 15; Daughter Kaileigh, 12

FAVORITE CREATURES: Dragonflies and Barn owls

VACATIONS: HOBBIES: Roaring River State Park in Missouri, anything outdoors.

By Beth Taylor “ QTcW/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ As chief naturalist for the Fishers Parks and Recreation Department, Danesa Stolz combines her passion for nature with COVER STORY her love of teaching to instill a sense of stewardship for all living things.

When Stolz arrived on the Ball State University campus in the fall of ‘93, she had already declared her major—elementary education. At freshman orientation, the natural resource and environmental management department booth caught her attention. “I thought, I have to find out more about this, so I met with the department chair, Professor Mortenson. I said, ‘Okay, I want to teach kids about nature, is this a job?’ He said, ‘Do everything I tell you to do, and I will make you a naturalist.’ And I did everything he told me to do.� said Stolz, the chief naturalist for the Fishers Parks and Recreation Department.

Stolz’s career at Ritchey Woods Nature Preserve began in 1996—before it was acquired by the Town of Fishers. “It was owned by The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis when I started my internship at Ritchey Woods, and I was hired as a naturalist in 1997,� said Stolz. As a naturalist, Stolz seeks to translate the concepts of nature and the environment to the public.

ABOUT ME:

Chief Naturalist DPnesa Stolz

Danesa Stolz and husband Ronnie getting married at Ritchey Woods.

“The town of Fishers acquired Ritchey Woods in June of 2004, and I was hired in August of 2004 for the naturalist position,� said Stolz. Much of the work that Stolz enjoys is out of the public’s view. “I’ve gotten to help develop the master plan for this property (Ritchey Woods), and I’ve worked to help restore the habitat, which means removing invasive plants and planting native plants, working with erosion control,� she said.

Natural areas are vital to urban development because they provide essential ecosystem functions such as the filtering of urban run-off, the storing and slowing of storm water and help to improve local air quality. Stolz also works on the urban forestry program. “I’ve helped develop the list of what trees are allowed to be planted and those that are banned in our city. I feel like I’m making a difference in this world, and the long term sustainability of Fishers,� she said.

Fishers’ flourishing park system includes five

exclusively natural, parks and eight others have a natural component—totaling 274.3 acres of natural areas within the city’s park system. “Ritchey Woods serves as the hub for natural outdoor environmental education because it has all the amenities,� she said. Environmental programs focus on topics and activities to lead to a greater understanding of the natural environment and the interdependence of all living things.

Special events are offered to the public free of charge, and nature-related themed day camps occur during school breaks.

Stolz works with a network of naturalists in Hamilton County, HAMPA. “We share ideas and programs. The parks system in Hamilton County is wonderful,� she said. “I’m working on several new ideas right now.

I like the idea of developing more on-your-own kinds of things. The public can go to our website and look up an activity to do in the natural parks.�

How many people can say that their career is their passion and their hobby?

I love that I’m

helping

to preserve and protect the natural areas for

future

generations.

“I did an internship the summer of ’96 at Ritchey Woods. My boss at the time told me that if you see a tree shaped like a rainbow, it’s called a wishing tree. The whole summer, I wished for Ronnie to propose. Ronnie and I arrived early for the end-of-the-season party, so I shared with him what I had been told about the wishing tree. He popped down on one knee and proposed. We got married here between two redbuds. I have been very passionate about this property for a long time.�

Protect yourself from data breach Commentary by Quinn Shepherd Protecting your identity in the internet age is no easy task. Anthem and Target are just two major companies that have made SAFETY headlines by malicious data breach attacks. Individuals and small businesses can protect themselves from these types of attacks with smart preparation and the right insurance, which is where Shepherd can help.

As an individual, you may already have identity theft protection coverage through your homeowners insurance policy. Talk to your independent insurance agent to find out. Adding coverage only costs a few dollars per month. Outside of insurance protection, there are a few other strategies you can employ to protect yourself from targeted attacks on your identity.

Strong Passwords A strong password includes non-sequential numbers, letters and symbols. Your password should not contain any words found in the dictionary, and should be different for each account you create one for. The more often you use the same password, the more at risk you become.

Your entire identity could become compromised if one company’s security is breached.

Don’t Become a Victim Never give out personal information via email.

No reputable company will ever ask. If you question the legitimacy of an email, do not click any links in that email. Do an online search for the company, go to their main website and contact their customer service department before responding to any suspicious email.

Monitor Your credit cards and bank accounts will always be a key target for identity theft. Monitor your accounts and report any suspicious activity immediately. Make sure you understand the risks of debit cards versus credit cards. Having money

Join us for a Cabinet Trends Event Saturday, February 21ST 10:30 A.M. – 12:00 P.M.

stolen directly out of your checking account can be a much more time consuming problem than disputing a charge on your credit card.

Protect Your Business Publicly traded businesses make the headlines, but hackers are increasingly targeting small to medium sized businesses. The big difference between an individual and a business is that unless you have specifically purchased a cyber liability policy, you are NOT protected. Your independent insurance agent should have already discussed this risk with you, but give them a call if they haven’t.

Develop Prevention Strategies Analyze your risks and find the vulnerabilities in technology, people and processes. Educate your staff about how to identify suspicious emails and require their passwords to be strong. One uninformed employee can undo the best-laid plans.

Crisis Management Respond quickly and have a reaction plan set in place. Your first step should be freezing any account that was compromised. Then sign up for a credit monitoring service. If you own a business, you should purchase credit monitoring for your customers. Know who needs to be notified when a breach occurs, and be sure to call your insurance agent if you have identity theft or cyber liability protection. The costs of a breach can add up pretty quickly if you don’t have the proper insurance protection.

Your independent insurance agent can help you find the right level of protection for your unique needs.

Stock of the week – Trinity Industries Inc. (TRN) is certainly a contrarian stock choice right now, one that goes against the grain for many investors—which is why it is an unusual opportunity following a sharp drop in its stock price in recent months. This industrial-products company builds and leases out railcars, many of which are used to transport crude oil—which has had plunging prices for months. The plunge in crude oil prices may affect long-term railcar purchasing decisions in the future, but Trinity’s current backlog of orders for railcars is immense and secure. In fact, the strength and expected cash flows of the railcar business should enable Trinity to handle any unfavorable developments related to its guardrail business. Source: Investor Place

Mo Merhoff and Dan Canan from both chambers of commerce at merger to OneZone.

Chambers of commerce merge news@youarecurrent.com

After many years of discussion, the boards of the Carmel and Fishers chambers of commerce have voted to merge into a single CITIES organization. The two chambers will operate together as OneZone, a commerce advocate and connector for both cities. “I’m so excited to make this announcement that has been in many ways 20 years in the making,� said Mo Merhoff, president of the Carmel Chamber of Commerce. “The result is positive things for business. In the end that’s what chambers are about--business opportunities.

Merhoff keeps the title and will be president of OneZone.

Members will get access to more business contacts, more marketing and collaboration opportunities, more advocacy clout and more exposure than ever before. Fishers Chamber of Commerce President, Dan Canan, will serve executive Vice President of OneZone. “We did this now, because we didn’t have to--both chambers, especially Fishers, are strong.

It’s what’s best for our membership. As Mo said, it was 20 years in the making, and it took 20 months to put all the pieces in place,� said Canan.

The new organization will be called OneZone to demonstrate the unified effort and indicate that its impact reaches across municipal boundaries. Its tagline is: Commerce. Connected.

OneZone will be led by a 25-member board that includes the entirety of both current boards.

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said he was filled in by both chamber presidents but he declined to say whether he was for or against it. “These are private organizations and they saw this as being in their best interest,� he said. “It’s not my decision. I hope that it works out best.�

Carmel City Councilor Luci Snyder said she talked to Merhoff and she thinks it’s a great idea, even though she understands that some might be against it. “She’s exactly right,� she said. “Business doesn’t stop at the city line.�

Chamber members and the public can learn more about the merger at www.fisherschamber. com.

Two open houses have been scheduled: Feb. 17, 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Fishers Chamber of Commerce, 11313 USA Parkway, Suite E134 Feb. 18, 4 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Carmel Chamber of Commerce, 21 S. Range Line Rd., Suite 300A The merger will be finalized after the members ratify the boards’ vote. That opportunity will happen on Feb. 20 between 7:30 and 9 a.m. at FORUM Headquarters Lobby, 11313 USA Pkwy, Fishers, and The Mansion at Oak Hill, 5801 E. 116th St., Carmel.

The lack of ‘diet’ in diet soda Commentary by Cory Black Could a diet soda actually be hurting your diet? All things being equal, substituting diet NUTRITION soda for regular soda when it comes to your waistline might not be any better overall than a regular soda.

A regular 12-ounce soda has 35 or more grams of sugar that can be harmful to our health with regular consumption. And as a result of supersizing it has led to expanded waistlines and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes.

Substituting sugar-laden drinks with a sugar-free, low- or zerocalorie drink should be a step in the right direction.

But why do some statistics show that people that drink only diet soda are more often overweight than those that drink only regular soda? There are a couple main theories: “ One possibility is those that are overweight and trying to lose weight are more often consuming diet sodas. Drinking diet sodas may feel like a shortcut and we feel like we

can just calorie-splurge elsewhere. “ The other thought is that over-indulgence in what we think is a free-of-nutrition drink may actually affect the metabolism of our body and even our response to real sugar from real food.

Studies do show that artificial sweeteners may still trigger a response in our body similar to sugar, possibly confusing it, as the sweetness does not come with the normal calories. Some even suggest that all of the consumption of diet soda may even blunt our normal response to sugar, upsetting our normal metabolism and making us feel hungrier in the process.

It really does seem that caloriefree doesn’t really mean it’s free and the best approach in any healthy diet is moderation. Plain water is still the healthiest option for quenching our thirst.

St.Vincent Heart Center is continuously pushing the limits of what’s possible in heart care. To do that takes an amazing amount of skill, study, experience and dedication. But it also takes passion. A passion to make a difference in the lives of those who suffer from heart disease.

And a desire to look beyond the boundaries to find better ways.

Parenting trifecta

FROM THE BACKSHOP

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Pollster just might have a better view Gallup Organization CEO Jim Clifton rightfully lambasted the government’s unemployment rate and the methodology used to determine it. “There’s no other way to say this. The official unemployment rate, which cruelly overlooks the suffering of the long-term and often permanently unemployed as well as the depressingly underemployed, amounts to a Big Lie.� Americans for Limited Government tells us in deriding the official unemployment rate, Clifton points to the fact that those who have left the workforce even if they are of working age are not counted as unemployed. He points to the unfair categorization of a person trained to be an engineer working as a fry cook as being employed rather than underemployed. He worryingly notes that only 44 percent of the adult population 18 years old and older have full-time jobs (more than 30 hours a week) asserting, “We need that to be 50 percent and a bare minimum of 10 million new, good jobs to replenish America’s middle class.� “ “ “ Let’s see how the Republicans can mess this up. Mitt Romney has declined the opportunity to attempt another run at the presidency and Jeb Bush apparently and sadly seems to be the frontrunner for the GOP nomination. Ah, but wait! Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a guy we can stomach, is making friends and serious gains on Bush’s popularity. At this point, we see him as having the tools and guts to take on the Clinton machine. Of course, he runs the risk of party leadership having him go through perfunctory spine removal surgery. We urge him to continue what brought him this far. “ “ “ The seeds of falsehood(s) finally caught up with NBC Managing Editor Brian Williams last week. It took too long. His suspension for six months with no pay, meted out by the television network’s brass, doesn’t fit the crime, in our view. For him to abandon the viewers’ trust and be able to return will leave a dark cloud hovering. But, really, since when did that matter to the liberal mainstream media?

Zeros and Ones

Commentary by Terry Anker

Much of modern computer technology depends upon simple combinations of “0’s� and “1’s� to input and dispense with stunningly complex actions. It is in these most humble building blocks that all processing begins and ends.

The very fact that a 1 is not a 0 and a 0 is not a 1, when combined in long strings, allows the computer programmer to conceive and overcome countless restrictions with breathtaking speed.

An assemblage of impressive kids, The Young Actors’ Theater of Indianapolis (www.yakids. org) is currently presenting a short morality play that is both impressively presented and thoughtfully acted. These young people, 1,600 or so this year, bring forward about 20 productions and 65 performances annually. Many of these kids are from populations to whom the arts are not a part of everyday life. Executive Director Justin Wade and his sister Managing Director Catherine Wade include as one of several programs, The Court: Battle Real Issues. It aspires to encourage

the kids to confront important social problems through theater; and, both the audience and the performers benefit. In one presentation, the teens address bullying in the age of social media.

The topic is so timely it almost seems obvious – and as the play opens, one fresh-faced protagonist admonishes the audience that in bullying – one is either being picked-on or picking-on.

Had this kind of simplistic, binary assessment been the end of the work, the production’s merit would be limited.

As computing horsepower has exponentially expanded, the increased granularity of millions, if not trillions, of 0’s & 1’s have given developers the ability to make what is essentially a binary action appear to be more complex, even nuanced. These kids know it, and make good use.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster.

° 5aXTSaXRW =XTcibRWT

Why does the poop always hit the fan when my husband Doo is out of town? I suppose it’s my own fault, as a not-so-small part of me was kind of looking forward to his trip. Let’s face it, husbands can be demanding, especially ones who seem to sabotage all plans for a clean house and on-time living. But I shouldn’t have admitted the sentiment! That was just plain stupid, a total rookie mistake. I basically delivered a handwritten invitation to the gods asking them to send me one difficult parenting moment after another. Their reply? Game on!

The week did actually start out lovely. But then my first challenge arrived in the form of an email from one of our kids’ teachers, and I was forced to take over Doo’s role as Chief Disciplinarian. This meant not only having to ground our precious little slacker, but also having to enforce said grounding. By myself, all alone. Easier said than done, as those of you with teenagers can attest. Between his incessant complaining and obnoxious loitering, I felt like I was the one being punished. “Fine!

You can go to the Super Bowl party; just get out of my hair!� Oops. This is why Doo always handles the punishments. Annoyance trumps my resolve every time.

One whole day passed before those haughty gods mocked my sabbatical from wifedom yet again. Our youngest twisted her ankle at tumbling practice, walking, of course. I spent four hours consoling a child in pain, questioning my amateur diagnosis of a sprain versus a break and performing logistical magic to arrange daycare, crutches and a potential ER visit. Thank goodness my in-laws were around.

All hail Grams and Pops! I really could have used Doo though, not only to support my Dr. Quinn, Medicine Mom, call, but also to assuage the guilt I experienced from pawning our hobbled ten-year-old off on the grandparents.

Sometimes I hate being a working mom.

The trifecta of parenting trials completed itself that same night: As I searched my daughter’s room for “comfort items,� I discovered her beloved pet lizard in a semi-shriveled, but definitely dead state of now non-existence. When I broke the news to Maddie, already exhausted from her traumatic “walking� injury (seriously, just walking!), she simply said, “I need a moment to myself.� The next thing I know I’m sobbing uncontrollably in the garage holding a tampon box turned reptile coffin and begging for the early return of Doo. I am not cut out for solo-mommyhood. Despite the brief respite that comes from having my husband out from underfoot, I prefer him here, with me, partnering in this parent thing.

Lesson learned, gods. Lesson learned! Peace out.

Marking off the to-do list Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I am not a procrastinator. Quite the opposite.

I pay bills before they are due. I’ve HUMOR already filed my 2014 income tax return. I kiss my wife goodnight in the morning.

The daily to-do list that I complete each night should list chores that should be done the next day, but I can’t put any of those things on my yellow notepad because I completed all those tasks weeks ago.

Sometimes I imagine what would happen if the day I graduated from high school, I was given a giant to-do list with everything on it that I needed to accomplish by the time I went to my 50th class reunion ‌ which will be in October, back in New York. “ See 1,426 movies “ Interview 25,567 people “ Phone my sister 341 times “ Go to the dentist 122 times “ Write 757 humor columns “ Clean a kitty litter box 6,018 times “ Read 1,708 books For a person like me who wants to get things done right now, I’d be a total mess from the moment I saw what I needed to accomplish—even though I had 50 years to do it. “Hello, Dick, I’m Harry, your new college roommate. Want to go out and get a beer?â€?

“Sorry, Harry, but I’m really busy. I have 1,708 books to read before 2015.�

Because I’m compulsive, I’d probably try to get a lot of the stuff over with immediately. I’d have my teeth cleaned 12 times a year, so I’d be done by 1985. I’d convince Mary Ellen when we got married to view 20 or 30 movies every weekend.

That would have at least put a small dent in the 1,426 flicks I’d have to finish by 2015.

How about talking to my sister on the phone in New York 341 times? “Dick, this is the fifth time you’ve called me today. We have absolutely nothing new to say to each other.� “I know, Linda, I know. But I have to get all the calls in to you by my 50th reunion.� “It’s only 1987. Have you talked to our brother as much?� “Yes, actually several dozen times this week.

I’m done now. I never have to talk to him again.�

I would have also had to space out 18,678 showers over the entire 50 years. Wait, did you really think I’d try to get them all done in just a decade or two?

Really, how weird do you think I am?

Investing in Indiana’s health Commentary by State Senator Jim Merritt The future of Indiana is dependent on the health of its citizens. While discussions concerning the next two-year state budget continue, I think it is important that we also POLICY focus on the wellbeing of Hoosiers.

This session, I proposed legislation that would distribute excess state funds to counties to invest in the betterment of Hoosiers’ health.

Senate Bill 414 would allow the investment earnings in the state general fund for the previous fiscal year to be distributed to counties throughout Indiana, if the fund is in excess of $1 billion. Beginning in 2016, the returned funds will be allocated proportionately based on population and used for the following purposes: “ Health “ Mental Health “ Education “ Nutrition Current law provides that the interest earned from the state general fund remains in the general fund where it continues to accrue interest. I believe that once this fund exceeds $1 billion, the interest should be returned to our communities to improve the lives of Hoosiers.

Examples of programs that could receive additional financial support are those focusing on job training, prenatal and postnatal care services, mental health treatment and counseling and suicide prevention services.

My legislation is financially responsible, provid-

ing an opportunity for the state to invest more money in health matters without increasing taxes for Hoosiers. SB 414 is a simple solution to strengthening our communities without creating new debt. These services are crucial to a successful state and it is my hope that SB 414 will result in a healthier and happier Indiana.

According to the most recent report by the Indiana State Department of Health, our state leads the nation in suicide death rates by age group in all age categories except for those over 65 years of age. In addition to suicide, Indiana has a high infant mortality rate of 7.7 deaths per 1,000 live births. Statistics like these suggest that we are not investing enough time or money into the health and wellbeing of our citizens.

SB 414 has been assigned to the Senate Committee on Appropriations. If the committee approves the bill, it will move to the full Senate for further consideration.

For more information on this proposal and other bills being considered this session, visit www.iga.in.gov.

Feeling empty? Consider Paul Commentary by Mike Colaw Over the years I have often noticed that people who think a marriage will complete them are the ones who aren’t married.

FAITH Likewise, the ones who think money will complete them are the people who want more money. Even people who feel like having kids will make their life complete are often the ones who don’t have them. I think some people really believe that a million dollar bank account will wash away all their discontent or that the moment they say their wedding vows all loneliness will melt away.

Don’t hear me wrong. A little money can be nice and marriage can be very rewarding.

That said, we are surrounded by celebrities who have a lot of money, their pick of people who would love to be with them, and still they have very broken, discontent lives. As a pastor, I interact with married people, wealthy people, popular people, CEO’s, lawyers and doctors. None of them have ever told me any of these things fully completed them. Here is a little secret-none of these things will complete you, and if you walk into a marriage, job, or even parenting expecting it will make you whole, you put a personal emotional burden on that thing or person that they (or it) can’t bear. You will be let down.

People who come into my office exploring faith usually fall into one of two categories: those that have a terrible life and are searching for hope, and those that have everything but are still empty. You read that right. Brilliant lawyers, doctors, and even professors who still feel a deep void.

The Apostle Paul makes a bold statement at the end of his letter in the Bible called Philippians. He says that there is a peace that surpasses all understanding. He even tells us how to get it. It’s basically this - trust Jesus.

How is this possible? If you really believe that Jesus is the ultimate satisfaction and heaven is where we become truly whole, the fear of missing out on things like a perfect job opportunity, marriage, or even kids begins to lose its power.

Paul says only Jesus, the hope of eternity, can carry the weight of your satisfaction. When you realize nothing else will ever satisfy it’s either the beginning of something deeply wonderful or terrifying. If you are at the end of yourself, I challenge you to explore a metaphysical answer.

Maybe Paul is right.

Looking for healthier dining-out options? Try these local restaurants

This cafĂŠ ranks number one on the vegetarian list for Carmel compiled by time-trusted vegan and vegetarian company Happy Cow. SoHo CafĂŠ serves meat options, but daily will have vegetarian soups and sandwiches to choose from, many of which are veggie-based.

Another great pick for vegetarians and dieters alike. While creole and Cajun cuisine might not seem like healthy foods because they come with high pilings of rice and bread, diners can ask for rice and bread on the side, and not on the same plate as the creole curries.

This way, everyone can enjoy their Cajun chicken without the hassle of accounting for extra carbohydrates.

The Amber lunch buffet is particularly good for dieters because it has a full section of salad items (plain veggies and fruits, with spiced-up dipping sauces such as mango chutney). If diners skip over the rice and naan selections, many of the meat and vegetable entrees can be enjoyed healthily. Even the butter chicken and chicken tikka masala are good options, because in Indian cuisine the â&#x20AC;&#x153;butterâ&#x20AC;? used is actually â&#x20AC;&#x153;ghee,â&#x20AC;? a purified version of butter that it known for its internal healing benefits and help in moving oxygen throughout the body.

Pure Eatery coming to downtown Friends &

By Holly Kline Â&#x201C; ]Tfb/RdaaT]cX]UXbWTab R^\

Locally owned business Pure Eatery will soon offer a downtown Fishers location at 8235 E. 116th St., adding to the growing list of restaurant and retail options in the newly DINING designed downtown area. Pure Eatery will open in early March and operating hours will be Monday through Friday from 11 to 3 a.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 9 to 3 a.m. Brunch will be served on the weekends and Pure Eatery will have a full bar open daily until closing.

Pure Eatery is owned by Dave and Courtney Andrus and Jason Jacobi. Courtney Andrus feels Fishers is a great location because of the downtownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plans for growth and the renaissance feel of local artists and small business owners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe Fishers residents will enjoy a place where they can meet co-workers for lunch, dine with their families for dinner and bring friends in for late-night drinks,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The Fountain Square area of Indianapolis is home to the first Pure Eatery and the restaurant is known for fresh food, made-from-scratch soups and seasonal dishes. Pure Eatery is excited to bring customer favorites to Fishers, including its gouda-stuffed Jalapeno appetizer, cranberry and goat cheese salad and the famous weekend brunch breakfast tacos. Pure Eatery also boasts a large sandwich and wrap menu that includes the popular portabella spinach

Courtney said the Pure Eatery in Fishers will offer more dinner entrees than the Indianapolis store and will use locally sourced food when possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also offer chips with all sandwiches from local chip maker Amazing Potato Chip Co. For dessert we are partnered with locally owned company, Lick, who provides a variety of delicious ice cream flavors.â&#x20AC;? Courtney explained.

Pure Eatery is about fresh, honest food, and the owners are excited to be a part of the newly developed downtown Fishers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our fresh, honest approach to food lends itself to a wide range of people,â&#x20AC;? Andrus said.

Is Your Fireplace Burning Through Your Energy Bill?

When results matter...

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, conventional fireplaces (wood or gas) are one of the most inefficient heat sources in the home. In fact, an open or unsealed damper in a well-insulated house can raise overall energy consumption by up to 30 percent, or nearly $200 per year.

Tel Dan: Proof of King David Commentary by Don Knebel

Seal Cove is a throwback horror story with just the right mix of contemporary humor, smarts, and monster gore. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an engaging novel that will have enthusiastic readers saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Finally, a horror story void of vampires, werewolves, or zombies!â&#x20AC;?

Not that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anything wrong with that.

Available in paperback at Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.

www.divittowrites.com

A

Underground springs and runoff from Lebanonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mount Hermon create a lush landscape in the Galilee Panhandle of northeast TRAVEL Israel far different from the remainder of the country. This fertile area includes Tel Dan, a large archeological mound named for the Biblical Tribe of Dan that produced one of the most important archaeological finds in Israelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history.

In about 1,800 B.C., the Canaanites established a major city called Laish in the region around Tel Dan. Archaeologists have uncovered a mud brick city gate from that period that includes the oldest known arched opening, an invention once incorrectly attributed to the much later Romans.

According to the Book of Joshua, members of the Tribe of Dan conquered Laish after their exodus from Egypt because the Philistines prevented them from capturing the land near the Mediterranean coast originally assigned to them. Archaeologists have unearthed stone gates and walls from the period of Israelite occupation of Dan, which the Bible says formed the northern boundary of the United Monarchy established by King David. Visitors can also explore the excavated â&#x20AC;&#x153;high placeâ&#x20AC;? the Bible says Jeroboam built in Dan when the northern Kingdom of Israel split from the southern Kingdom of Judah after the death of Davidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son Solomon. Danâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high place, featuring a golden calf, competed for worshippers with

Canaanite City Gate at Tel Dan ?W^c^ Qh 3^] :]TQT[

the Temple in Jerusalem.

During excavations at Tel Dan in 1994, archaeologist Avraham Biran discovered pieces of a broken stele (monument) erected by King Hazael of Aram-Damascus in the late ninth century B.C., boasting of capturing Dan and killing Israelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s King Jehoram. Most scholars now believe the Aramaic writing on the stele also says Hazael killed Ahaziah, â&#x20AC;&#x153;son of the king of the House of David,â&#x20AC;? the first non-Biblical evidence of Davidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existence.

Although the now famous Tel Dan stele confirms the historicity of David and his dynasty, it

Class Act

contradicts the Biblical account of the Israelitesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; battle with Hazael. According to the Book of Second Kings, Jehoram and Ahaziah were killed in a coup after the battle by their general Jehu, who then became king. Even details in battle reports can reflect their authorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s point of view.

Blending old with new in 1920s Indianapolis Bungalow

Commentary by Larry Greene

BEFORE & AFTER

EXISTING HOME: After living in their 95-yearold bungalow in the Butler/Tarkington area for 25 years, the homeowners BLUEPRINT FOR were tired of outdated IMPROVEMENT cosmetics and poor flow. “Our main priorities were to create a more open feel and modernize the kitchen and bathrooms while staying true to the original style and charm of the home.”

KITCHEN: To create a more open concept feel, the original narrow doorways were widened and arched for a better sightline from the formal dining room to the kitchen. New doors and drawer fronts were installed and painted to match the existing cabinetry boxes. A new backsplash was installed using “Lady Onyx” subway tile to complement the existing granite countertops. To brighten up the space, the existing copper wallpaper on the ceiling was removed. New decorative molding was installed to restore the historical charm of the kitchen. To complete the final look, a new heated slate tile floor was installed in a small Versailles pattern.

DINING NOOK: The original corner built-ins were revitalized with new moldings and a fresh coat of white paint. The interiors were painted in a contrasting gray color to add depth and visual interest. Wainscoting was then installed around the perimeter of the room and white decorative trim was placed on the ceiling for added charm.

UPSTAIRS BATH: The plumbing in the upstairs bath was upgraded to modern standards. A tub was upgraded to a tub/shower combination. The original shower tile was removed and replaced with 4x4 gloss black tile in a diagonal pattern on the side walls. The white and black basketweave tile used for the niche and bathroom floor gives a cohesive look with the rest of the bathroom. Stone veneer was installed over the top of existing stainless steel sheets to add texture and warmth to the bathroom.
