Warbird Expo visits Fishers

By John Cinnamon • news@currentinfishers.com On the morning of June 7, 90-year-old Bob Bennett, along with his wife, made the trip from their home in Franklin, to the Indianapoin honor lis Metro Airport in Fishers for the Warbird Expo 2014.

Bennett’s interest in the day-long display of vintage aircraft – many from World War II – was twofold. Seventy years ago, Bennett was part of a B26 Squadron in the 9th Air Force stationed in England right before D-Day, so these planes were very familiar to him. And more personally, one of the planes featured at the event is owned by Bennett’s son, John.

“My interest in aviation probably comes from my dad,” said the younger Bennett, a Noblesville resident and member of the Indiana Wing of the Commemorative Air Force, the organization responsible for the Warbird Expo. John Bennett’s plane is a 1943 Stearman PT-13D, an aircraft that was used to train military pilots from 1944 to 1947, and the very kind of plane in which his father may have trained.

Warbird Expo 2014, now in its second year in Fishers, traces its roots to 1981 when the Indiana CAF held its first air show in Columbus, Ind. “That first air show 33 years ago was a smashing success,” said Dennis Schell, Volunteer Wing Leader of the Indiana CAF. “They couldn’t even handle all the people that showed up.” Two years later it moved to the Mount Comfort Airport where it was run by the CAF as the Warbird Air Show for several years, before being taken over by another non-profit organization and became the Indianapolis Air Show. That organization and air show disbanded two years ago.

This created an opening for the Indiana CAF. “With our interest in honoring veterans, exhibiting former military aircraft, and introducing youth to aviation,” said Schell, “we decided to start a Warbirdonly event.” In addition to vintage aircraft, the free show also included military vehicles, airplane rides, and WWII speakers.

Schell, a captain in the U.S. Air Force who flew No-Fly-Zone enforcement missions over Iraq in the ‘90s as an F-15E weapons systems officer, explained that the Commemorative Air Force started in Texas in 1957, with the Indiana Wing joining in 1978. Besides the Warbird Expo in Fishers, the Indiana CAF visits 15 to 18 airport open houses and air shows every year throughout the Midwest.

Told mostly in Lego format, with all the people, places and things made up of the iconic construction toys, “The Lego Movie” follows the adventures of Emmet (Chris Pratt). A normal, generic, rather boring worker, he lives in a world where everyone follows the rules of their banal society. Then he falls in with Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks), a member of the gang of Master Builder insurgents rebelling against the tyrannical Lord Business (Will Ferrell).

It’s officially time to maneuver the outdoor furniture to its righteous position of importance and start basking in this welldeserved change of weather.

Boland chosen to run for state treasurer

Trains offer boost to Fishers

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com

Holly Kline • news@currentinfishers.com

On May 31, the Indiana Democratic Party held its State Convention and officially nominated candidates for the three statepolitics wide offices that will be up for election in November. One of the candidates chosen was Mike Boland of Fishers he was selected to run for the office of State Treasurer.

Boland moved from Illinois to Fishers in 2012 to be near his children and grandchildren after retirement, but has owned property in the area since 2007. He had a 30-year career in education and was also involved in politics in Illinois on many levels including serving 16 years in the Illinois House of Representatives. During that tenure he served as the chairman of several committees including the financial institutions committee during which he says he gained lots of knowledge that gives him the qualifications necessary to be State Treasurer.

He began his involvement in Indiana politics by being a citizen activist and then was asked if he would consider running for state treasurer.

He says after seeing how the state is being run he agreed.

“I had been reading the paper and have been sort of astounded at a lot of the policies of Republicans here so I agreed to do it,” Boland said.

He cites the college savings program as one area that needs more publicity and focus. He

The Indiana Transportation Museum has been providing train services since 1983, which is when the FairTrain first economy started running from Fishers to the Indiana State Fair.

Since then, train rides in Fishers have become popular with several routes to choose from, like weekend daytime rides to and from Noblesville, Saturday-night dining excursions to nearby small towns and various festival trains. What people may not realize is that the trains impart a sizeable economic boost to Fishers.

According to an ITM financial study, 28,600 people boarded the trains in downtown Fishers in 2013. Fifty-nine percent of those riders came from outside of Hamilton country while 16 percent came from Fishers.

“Direct spending by households boarding the train in Fishers amounted to over $493,000,” said John Johnson of the ITM. He went on to explain that the $493,000 was spent on food, fuel, retail items and lodging in the Fishers community.

The Fishers Fridays After Dark train is another ITM offering that provides additional economic opportunity. Running through July 25 (with no train on July 4), the train picks up riders at Steinmeier Station just west of Binford Boulevard on 71st Street in Indianapolis. The route is designed to bring passengers from Indianapolis to the Friday night concerts in Fishers and al-

also believes that the state should link depositing state funds in state institutions to those institutions offering lower interest rates for students and entrepreneurs.

Boland says he realizes that it may be difficult, as a Democrat, to get elected in Indiana.

“It’s a tough job. This is basically a red state.

But I believe it’s changing. People here are goodhearted. I believe there’s some problems here in Indiana just as there are in any state. One is the problem of getting good paying jobs. Indiana now has become the number one state in growth of poverty level jobs and so I see using the power of the state treasurer’s office, we can actually make a dent in those problems,” he said.

lows time to visit shops and restaurants.

“The train is both a feature and a means to an end. People who share a ride on the train can choose the restaurant or event that suits their interests,” stated Johnson.

The popular State FairTrain is set to start running from Fishers to the Indiana State Fair on Aug. 1.

“There will absolutely be a train to the State Fair,” Johnson said. “The FairTrain has run now for 31 years and it is worth pointing out what a truly remarkable operation it is. For the 17 days of the fair, the railroad is a full-rail transit operation offering 20 trains a day on approximately hourand-a-half intervals from 8 a.m. to midnight.”

From the many Fishers/Noblesville routes to the unique and enduring FairTrain, the ITM continues to provide transportation options that greatly benefit the Fishers community.

“The trains are intended as a kind of gateway experience for visitors, something to pique curiosity and excite imaginations, something to encourage people to investigate more on their own,” Johnson said.

Topiary artist visits Fishers

By Sarah Stoesz • news@currentinfishers.com Gardens and all Things Green began on Saturday at the Nickel Plate District Amphitheater in Fishers with a lecture and exhibition demonstration from noted topiary expert, Pearl Fryar.

Fryar started the Pearl Fryar Topiary Garden in in Bishopville, S.C., in the 1980s. Fryar said he created the garden with creative talent and recycled plants, as he did not have any training or education in horticulture.

“When I started, it was basically using my talent as a creative person because at that point in my life, no one had recognized my talent,” Fryar said. “I am the type of person that is creative, but I couldn’t put it on canvas.”

A documentary about Fryar and his garden titled “A Man Named Pearl” has been shown at the Heartland Film Festival and on HGTV. The garden had about 15,000 visitors last year from all across the United States. It is unlike any other topiary garden as it uses abstract forms and has a message of love and peace, Fryar said.

“I wanted to create a garden that within the garden there was a message,” he said. “I wanted to appeal to people from an emotional point of view. I wanted people to leave feeling better than when they came in.”

Fryar has spoken at universities across the nation. He has a passion for education and has created a scholarship fund that supports aver-

age students attending a community college.

Fryar says his scholarship benefits students with any college major as he believes that it is important to help average, unprivileged students so they can have bright futures.

“What I want to tell students, is don’t let someone tell you what you can and cannot do by some test score because what you may do well may not show up on a test score,” he said.

Pearl Fryar’s topiary garden and scholarship fund are both non-profit. Donations can be made at www.pearlfryar.com.

Gardens and all Things Green will last until June 21. The focus will feature classes, demonstrations, and tours of garden centers. For more information on Gardens and all Things Green visit http://www.visithamiltoncounty.com.

High level: Fishers’ nickel-plated road

Commentary by Beth Clark

Fishers residents can eat at the Nickel Plate Bar and Grill, listen to music at the Nickel Plate Amphitheater, mark back in the day the construction progress of the Depot at Nickel Plate Apartments, stroll the Farmer’s Market in the Nickel Plate District and catch the Nickel Plate Players’ debut performance this July.

Even if you have never boarded a Nickel Plate rail car at the Fishers Train Station, it is evident – based on the central location of so many things “Nickel Plate” – that the name has something to do with the railroad that runs through the heart of town.

Sources link the origin of the name Nickel Plate to the Norwalk, Ohio, Chronicle newspaper.

The Chronicle, in its March 10, 1881 article about the newest east – west rail line called The New York, Chicago, and St. Louis Railroad, dubbed it, “the great double track, nickel plated railroad.”

The paper continued to refer to the railroad as the “nickel-plated” road for some time, eventually giving it the definitive title of Nickel Plate.

To call something “nickel-plated” was to infer its high standard and quality as nickel-plating ensured quality and longevity of manufacturing parts, including rail parts. Like nickel plating, the New York, Chicago, and St. Louis Railroad that linked important industrial cities was of incredible value to manufacturers and shippers

in America and to the prosperity of the towns it traversed.

Fishers was a town founded entirely for the sake of rail. In June, 1872, Salathiel Fisher, taking advantage of the newest extension of the Indianapolis, Peru, and Chicago railroad north through Rochester, Indiana, divided the land he owned next to the railroad into town lots. These lots for a postmaster, two general stores, and a rail agent became the town of Fisher’s Station (or Fisher’s Switch), later shortened to Fishers in 1908.

As rail transport became more prevalent and important, the town of Fishers grew. Fishers eventually eclipsed the smaller station village of New Britton north along the rail line at 126th Street. Trains stopped at New Britton station for the last time in 1909.

The Indianapolis, Peru and Chicago Railroad

sold to the Lake Erie and Western Road in 1887, which in turn was finally acquired by the Nickel Plate Railroad in 1923. By this time the Nickel Plate Railroad was a multi-million dollar operation, and Fishers’ link to the great manufacturing cities of America was complete.

Fishers’ current growth and construction carry on the great tradition of nickel-plated improvements, set to increase the value and worth of our community. Fortunately, amidst the changes, the rail line that founded our town will remain a fixture.

A gift from the heart

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com Hudson Miles is a 9-year-old boy from Fishers who recently read in his Scholastic Newsletter about a boy his age fundraiser who had donated stuffed animals to his local fire department because he had read that kids being transported by ambulance are often very afraid.

The idea was that the stuffed animals would give them comfort.

Hudson told his mom that he wanted to do that too. So the family posted on its Facebook page and spread the word that if people would just donate $1, they would go to the dollar store and buy a stuffed animal. The family was overwhelmed when the response to the plea was $160 in donations.

Hudson and his family bought 160 stuffed animals and personally delivered them to the Fishers Fire Dept. on May 23. It’s a sweet story even if it ended there. But it doesn’t, because Hudson has Asperger Syndrome.

This kind of thoughtful, concerned act, according to Hudson’s mother, Angie Miles, is not typical of a child with Asperger’s.

“A hallmark of Asperger’s is that it is a social disease and it inhibits them from being able to consider other people’s feelings. That’s the number one marker of the condition,” she says.

Hudson is considered moderately affected by the disorder, his mother says and adds, “It’s

9-year-old Hudson Miles with the stuffed animals he donated to the Fishers Fire Department.

something that certainly impacts our lives very much.”

He recently began attending Little Star Center in Carmel which is an Applied Behavior Analytics licensed center. Miles says that it was a crisis situation that brought them to the center and it has proven to be life-changing for them.

Hudson receives 35 hours of one-on-one intense therapy per week at the center and Miles references the stuffed animal donation as an example that it is working.

“It’s just phenomenal. It just really, really touched our hearts. I think other parents of Asperger’s children would see how significant this is. Really for any child, it’s a big deal to be selfless and do selfless things, but for an Asperger’s child it’s just especially great,” she said.

A strange time to be a man

Commentary by Mike Colaw

Let me begin by saying I am an egalitarian. I fully believe we are equal in value before God! Men, women, black, white, poor, rich faith … all are equal in value before God! That said, a while back I walked into a mall and there was a young couple fighting; you could tell the girl was really angry with the young man. She was clearly hitting him as hard as she could. “Friends” that were standing around were laughing as this young man just took the beating.

No police were called, no one intervened, and no one even seemed to be bothered. They thought it was funny.

What if we switched genders in this situation?

What if it was a young man hitting a girl over and over again in a public mall? How do you think current culture would view that?

While it’s good that our Western culture is working to bring equality for men and women, we don’t want to swing the pendulum so far that abuse becomes okay on the other side.

The reality is this isn’t new!

Running from the religious oppression of Europe, our forefathers came to the United States of America. As they settled into colonies their passion to express their version of religion shifted. There linger stories of new colonists interrogating others running from the oppression across the sea only to find it here too.

I can’t shake some of the stories we read in graduate school. There are stories of people spending months crossing the ocean only to find a noose at the end of the docks in America because they wouldn’t conform to the “correct” version of Christianity.

It’s important to note this wasn’t true of all the colonists. Many were good people! Many did show love and mercy, including to the Native Americans, but not all were like this. Some were tired of religious oppression, but were quick to offer it when they were in power.

Historically few seem to actually get this right … the pursuit of true equality.

As the gender, race, and religious (or opposition to a religion) power struggle continues, the swing of power will inevitably usher in new oppression.

What’s that old saying? “Ultimate power ultimately corrupts.”

Jesus is different. Christian love isn’t supposed to be about demanding control, it’s about submitting everything to the value system of Jesus. It might be time to pull out that old dusty Bible and read the red letters, the words of Jesus.

Fishers organization provides financial, educational and emotional support to orphans in Uganda

Rachel and Osteen are orphaned brother and sister. They have been adopted by the Searcy family of Fishers through the Village2Village program. (Submitted photo)

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com The pictures of beautiful, smiling children belie the ugly truth.

These children of Uganda have seen terrible pain, have experienced hunger and loneliness and have been cover story victims of horrors that most of us cannot imagine.

Many of them are alone in the world. They are orphans who may have watched as their parents died of AIDS. They may be homeless, have no food or clothing and no one to turn to. It is a fate that most of us living in Fishers can’t fathom. But it does exist and Laurie Kroll is trying to fix it, one child at a time.

Kroll’s husband was the long-time pastor of a church in Vermont 11 years ago when a young man from Uganda came to visit.

He showed church members pictures of orphans in his village of Serere in the northeast part of Uganda, which is about a sevenhour bus trip from the capital of Kampala.

Wanting to help, church members sent clothing and supplies to him.

“When we sent gifts to his extended family he sent pictures back that involved orphan children watching those gifts be opened. And it was really heartbreaking. So, I casually said, ‘Maybe

Kroll’s home-away-from-home in Uganda. (Submitted photo)

someday we can help.’ And by Tuesday, I had the names and stories of nine children that were heartbreaking and it was hard to walk away at that point because it became personal,” she said.

Kroll, whose twin daughters were 11 at the time, said one of the stories was of an 11-year-old girl who literally had no clothes.

Other stories included that of a man who lost two wives and 11 of his 18 children to AIDS and as a result, was the caregiver to his grandchildren.

So, four of Laurie’s friends gave her $25 each to help the orphans, and with that money Village2Village was born.

“With the $100 we bought a big bag of rice and a big bag of beans and on July 4, 2003, we gave those out and we bought nine

“The uniqueness of Village2Village is that it is very personal ... These children are kids; they are real people.”

– Laurie Kroll, founder, Village2Village

school uniforms and nine backpacks with no idea whether the next month we’d have another $100 or what we should do with it.

Just that we wanted to help them,” said Kroll. “One of those original kids from that year, 11 years later, is graduating with a degree in law from university at the top of her class in Uganda.”

The nine children became 48 by 2006 and Kroll and her organization were able, through donations, to hire one staff person. Today, there are 100 children in the program with two locations and five staff members in Uganda.

The program provides two meals a day, tutoring and all school fees and supplies while the children live with whatever family they have. Kroll said it’s a unique concept designed to nurture family ties.

Kroll, who moved with her family to Fishers about a year ago and has made Launch Fishers her headquarters, said she and her organization have been embraced by the residents of Fishers. She has gained many new sponsors here and, in all, has approximately 150 around the world.

Tom and Jen Searcy of Fishers recently adopted Rachel and Osteen who are brother and sister.

“For less than the cost of supporting one child in Fishers for a month, I can save the life of a child in Uganda for a whole year!” said Tom Searcy on why he decided to get involved in the Village2Village program.

Of sponsors, Village2Village asks for emotional commitment as well as a monthly financial contribution.

“Basically this child has no parents. So they see the person that is paying their school fees as their parent; their family. We don’t like to change it every year. And we don’t like to do it with a group.

We like to have one person with one child and hope that they will be in it for the long haul,” said Kroll.

Only 30 percent of the needs of the child are paid for by the sponsors and the rest is paid for with donations. Village2Village has also funded a water tower and electricity projects and hopes to build an infirmary in the district.

For Kroll, helping the orphans has become a life mission.

“Outside of my faith and my own family, it’s the most important thing. It’s what I think about when I go to bed. It’s what I think about when I wake up. When I’m struggling to make sure there’s enough money for all those kids to go back to school at the same time, it’s the thing that keeps me awake at night. It’s significant,” she said. “There’s so much need there. We’re just scratching the surface.”

More sense than dollars

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Dave Brat, the Tea Party challenger to Virginia GOP House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, won the primary last Tuesday night in what irrefutably was a major upset. Brat took aim at Cantor’s support of immigration legislation that would give amnesty to those that entered the United States illegally. There are mixed reports out there, but Cantor spent well more than $1 million dollars on his campaign (and had more in reserve), while Brat spent in the neighborhood of just more than $100,000. This is the first time since 1899 that a sitting majority leader had lost an election – and remember, this was the primary. Said Brat in a story posted on FoxNews.com: “If you go knocking door to door, you’ll know the American people think they’re in trouble. … It was a miracle.” Good to know there are some Republicans – and supporters – attempting to clean up the party. It’s also proof that a strong message means more than a brimming cache of cash.

••• The annual Encore Gala Weekend for our region’s Center for the Performing Arts is coming up June 20-21, and it should be quite an event for attendees. We’re helping to sponsor the two-night extravaganza, and, well, we’re extremely excited about it. The first night has patrons at the Indiana Roof Ballroom for cocktails, a silent auction and the Great American Songbook Dinner Dance, at which CFTPA Artistic Director Michael Feinstein and Friends will perform. The next night at the Palladium, there will be the Hall of Fame induction of Johnny Mathis, Shirley Jones, Linda Ronstadt and Nat King Cole and exciting live musical performances by special guests. Natalie Cole will accept the award for her father. Performers include Peter Cincotti, American Idol finalist Jessica Sanchez, Broadway star Laura Osnes, Canadian vocalist Denzal Sinclair, and Songbook Youth Ambassador Julia Goodwin.

When encouragement is justified Commentary by Terry Anker The now defunct Indianapolis Athletic Club had a policy of posting the names of members who were unwilling or unable to pay their bills in a timely fashion in a prominent place on the wall of the clubhouse. Deadbeats or not, it would convince the errant fellows to pay up. And, it would offer some prurient thrill to the collected mass that would routinely peruse the list with each new month. Some names would be surprising and might indicate an unusual financial problem for them or their companies. Others were familiar in the fraternity of slow-payers. Either they traveled so much that their mail (and their attentions) were lagging far behind the expectation of the accounting department; or as was more often the case, they were habitual over-spenders, gladly charging today what they could not pay for tomorrow.

It always struck me as a highly effective, if somewhat direct, way to keep receivables under control. There are many points on the sliding scale from failing to collect what we’re owed to

outright public humiliation of those who convert the property of others without fair payment.

Some organizations send slow accounts to a collection agency promptly and without fanfare.

Others, attempt to consider circumstance. Why is the payment late? Can we rely on eventual remuneration?

But do we have a right to be indignant of folks who do not pay – at least not like we do? What right does the community at large have in keeping other people current? Should we be more compassionate or less? Can we judge the neighbor whose association dues are years behind yet still maintains a fleet of automotive toys?

Can we criticize the unfulfilled pledge from the person in church with the Cadillac in the parking lot? When is a little public encouragement justified?

Q U O T E O F T H E W E E K “Our culture is competent to implement almost anything and to imagine almost nothing.”

- Walter Brueggemann

Well I just returned from my family’s annual pilgrimage to the best people-watching, and as it turns out, educational, humor amusement park in the Midwest, Kings Island. Luckily for your reading pleasure, it did not disappoint.

We arrived about 30 minutes prior to the gates opening, leaving me more than enough time to apply sunscreen to my pasty-white ginger offspring and to count tattoos among fellow park-goers. Standing in one location, I easily identified 21 ink lovers in less than 60 seconds.

We headed first to the Banshee, the new pipe coaster which claims to be the longest inverted one in the world. My youngest daughter sat out, not quite ready to submit her little body to blackout-inducing G-forces. Oh, how I wish I had volunteered to stay with her. Even with prophylactic naproxen coursing through my bloodstream, I got off the ride with a pounding headache, feeling dizzy and slightly nauseous. Assuming my mild concussion would eventually abate, I continued on to more brain-jarring rides until just after lunch, when I finally called it quits. Clearly too old for that nonsense, I transitioned to gentle log flumes and the ‘80s Flashback Show. Michael and Bruce on the same stage!

The beauty of throwing in the towel that early of course is that I had hours to sit and judge fellow patrons while my family pressed on. The reoccurring themes? Obesity and immodest dress. Granted, Kings Island has a water park and the day was plenty hot, but if I never see a plus-size gal in a string bikini top riding the Racers again in my life, that’ll be one less traumatic moment to address in counseling.

Even my 10-year-old asked why there were so many overweight people. As I sucked down a soft-serve cone, I explained about the Midwest weather and consequential lifestyle.

Then over a pepperoni pizza, we discussed how you can be stuck indoors for six months but still be healthy. At Wendy’s on the way home, we decided we’d learned some valuable lessons about nutrition and ketchup.

Our teenager’s cell phone lies somewhere underneath loop four of Diamondback, our older daughter left in tears because she just “wanted to ride one more ride,” our younger son is combating addiction after failing to win a life-size gorilla on the ring toss and I am suffering a mild wrist sprain from the Haunted House Shoot-Out. Overall, though, we can chalk up another successful Kings Island venture for the Wilson clan. Peace out.

I keep a clipboard next to my bed where I attach newspaper articles, snippets from magazines, photos, anything that might humor be an inspiration for my next column. If I still can’t think of anything funny to write by deadline, I just whack myself in the head until something dawns on me. In the past 13 years, I have done that 650 times, which should explain a lot.

On the top of the clipboard this week I inserted a little instruction pamphlet that came with a new device my dentist suggested I buy. I have several dental implements in my bathroom. He told me I needed this thingamajig because after Alyssa, the hygienist, dug away at my gums for 40 minutes last week, there was some bleeding. The doctor asked if bleeding had been a recurring problem, and I said yes – every six months when Alyssa digs away at my gums for 40 minutes.

The package arrived three days later. The box said: Hydro Floss – A New Generation of Oral Irrigators.

Yikes. This sounded like my mouth required not just a qualified dental professional, but a small team of agricultural workers, as well.

I opened the pamphlet and, as is always the case, the buyer is admonished not to use the product until all the directions have been read.

There were four subsections on the first page, all related to eliminating the possibility of elec-

trocution: DANGERS, WARNINGS, CAUTIONS and SAFEGUARDS. These are not the kinds of words you want to see associated with a machine you are going to fill with water, plug into a wall socket and then insert into your mouth. The first caution is: Never let children use the Hydro Floss without supervision. Too bad, because with two of these gadgets, kids could have a great water fight.

Using the Hydro Floss requires a deft touch.

The manufacturers recommend that you first practice in the mirror without the water stream.

The instructions say that once you feel proficient, you can fill the machine with warm water and begin. But now the manual warns you NOT to watch yourself in the mirror because, “this will cause a mess.”

Since I comb my hair and shave while looking in the mirror, I couldn’t imagine how this would be a problem. But it was. Water ended up everywhere: the floor, the mirror, all over the walls. I even got some in my mouth.

Now that I’ve learned how to use it, I can recommend the Hydro Floss. I’d also suggest you buy the two-year extended warranty. And a good mop.

THIS WEEK Dick Gregory on stage – Comedian Richard Claxton “Dick” Gregory has lived a life far from ordinary. He is listed on Comedy CARMEL Central’s Top 100 Stand-Up Comedians of All-Time, and in the 1960s helped bridge African-American comedy to Caucasian audiences with much success. Dick Gregory began performing comedy while in the U.S. Army in the mid 1950s. Through the use of irony and satire, he held up a lens to American society and its stereotypes, using comedy and social action to address injustice and discrimination in American society. A performance in 1961 at the Chicago Playboy Club launched his national reputation; within a year, he played to sold-out audiences in nightclubs and became a popular television comedian.

Symphony on the Prairie returns with WWI medley

By Joseph Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com The annual patriotic program “keynote address” for Symphony on the Prairie will get an added musical boost this year from music songs of the First World War, which started 100 years ago.

Something else special about the 2014 “StarSpangled Symphony” – the series’ most popular weekend – is that The World War I Medley, performed by the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra under the baton of assistant conductor David Glover, will feature harmonica player Michael Runyan in his own arrangements of four doughboy favorites.

Runyan’s performance also will be his last as a symphony employee. He’ll retire after 28 years of service in the orchestra’s library at the end of August.

His interest in the harmonRunyan ica goes back decades, and wanting to exploit his ability as a professional soloist with the orchestra is part of his motivation for retiring at age 61.

There’s another musical reason, too.

“Over the years, I’ve been writing compositions and arrangements, and I haven’t had the time to put them into circulation in the wider markets,” Runyan said. “It just makes sense.

It’s intellectual property that needs to be monetized, and I think it’s stuff people would love.”

A local example is no further away than the concerts of July 3-5, with longtime Symphony on the Prairie maestro Alfred Savia on the podium.

The conductor and symphony artistic administrator Zack French strategized over a World War I medley, and, assisted by Runyan, came up with “Over There,” “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary,” “Keep the Home Fires Burning,” and “Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag.” Runyan’s kit bag consists of a variety of harmonicas, ranging from low to high, and they will be drawn upon in the program’s second half. That will include his role model Richard Hayman’s arrangement of “Home on the Range,” a Hayman-Runyan version of “Shenandoah,” and a new Runyan arrangement of Charlie McCoy’s “New River Gorge.”

As the symphony’s head librarian, Runyan’s main responsibility has been to make sure he and his staff get the right music on the right stand at the right time. And advances in computer technology in the course of the past three decades have made his job somewhat easier when it comes to finding materials conductors want to perform.

Still, physical copies of the music often have to be rented and performance rights always secured.

“Over the years I’ve helped the professional orchestra world with databases to track their performances,” Runyan said, which has made orchestral libraries more efficient in generating information vital to their organizations’ history:

What was performed when, in what setting, in what edition?

There are more burdensome chores, too.

When orchestral parts are borrowed, how often have Runyan and his staff had to deal with messy parts, worn by handling and excessive, unerased markings?

“From my first day to my last,” Runyan replied with a sigh. “It’s the nature of the beast. Sometimes it’s like borrowing a used handkerchief.”

Being with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra from the inception in 1986 of its popular Yuletide Celebration spurred Runyan’s creativity.

The later arrival of Jack Everly as principal pops conductor stretched the librarian-musician even further.

“Jack’s approach is to make a musical event out of (a pops concert), make a dramatic arc to it,” Runyan said. “Timing, the era of the pieces, the works – it’s just entertaining all the way through. I think it’s a blessing that I was here to be a part of that. It’s really been an honor.”

Play confronts Holocaust horrors

By Brianna Susnak • editorial@youarecurrent.com

Main Street Productions of Westfield will be staging “The Diary of Anne Frank” for the next two weekends – but with a twist.

In this gripping new adaptatheatre tion by Wendy Kesselman of the original stage play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, newly discovered writings from the diary of Anne Frank - as well as survivor accounts - are interwoven to create an impassioned story of the lives of people persecuted under Nazi rule.

“We kept this version as pure as possible,” said director Kristin Wilson. “And everything is accurate to its time. There are pages and speeches from Anne’s diary that come directly from the book and are unedited.”

The cast, which ranges from newcomers to seasoned veterans, has worked hard to maintain the historical accuracy and raw emotion of the original play.

“I’ve read the diary several times, and it’s something I’ve always been fascinated by,” said Maggie Williams, who will star as Anne Frank.

“It’s relatable because she is just an ordinary girl thrown into her situation.”

Williams has been involved with theatre for 10 years. However, adapting to this role has been different from any of her previous roles.

“This is the first time I’ve played someone who

“The Diary of Anne Frank” at Westfield Playhouse will be based on a screenplay adapted by Wendy Kesselman. (Submitted photo)

isn’t a fictional character,” she said. “There is more pressure trying to do a real person justice, but it’s been a good challenge.”

Much like Anne Frank’s family bonds throughout the play, the cast has developed a family-like atmosphere during rehearsals.

“Whenever you put on a show in an intimate space and everyone is on stage, you tend to get close and it is a very good bonding experience,” Williams said.

“The Diary of Anne Frank” • 7:30 p.m. June 20, 21, 27 and 28 and 2:30 p.m. June 22 and 29 • Westfield Playhouse, 1836 W. Ind. 32 in Westfield • Tickets start at $12 • For more information call 896-2707 or visit www.westfieldplayhouse.org.

Ticket lottery for sold-out musical

By Chris Bavender • editorial@youarecurrent.com

The Book of Mormon is coming to the Old National Centre June 17-22 and, while the show is almost sold out, you still have theatre a chance at tickets through a lottery.

The musical – winner of nine Tony Awards – will make a limited number of tickets available with a pre-show lottery. Entries will be accepted at the box office starting two and a half hours before each performance. Names of winners will be drawn two hours before the show for the tickets – priced at $25.

The Book of Mormon – which opened in 2011 – has been called one of the “filthiest” and “most offensive” shows on Broadway. Created by Matt Stone and Trey Parker – known for their animated TV show South Park – is the story of two young missionaries who go to Uganda to try to convert residents to the Mormon religion.

“My love for musicals comes from Rogers and Hammerstein and all the classics on VHS and the local community theatre,” Parker said. “I wanted something happy and optimistic and structured in that way and just in the same way they would do it about people living in Oklahoma or Chinese Americans in San Francisco or people in the South Pacific. It was like, this is our theme and this was our group of people and it really was let’s try and make a cool, traditional musical first and then the Mormon thing was sort of this ‘Oh,

Phyre Hawkins, Mark Evans and Christopher John O’Neill star in “The Book of Mormon.” (Submitted photo by Joan Marcus)

here’s the one – let’s do it about this.’”

“That aesthetic and that choice the church makes to make that kind of their public image seems to just fit with musical theatre,” Stone said. “There’s just something about their attitude that just makes it look like they’re about to burst into song.”

The Book of Mormon • June 17 through June 22 • Old National Centre • 502 N. New Jersey Street in downtown Indianapolis • Tickets start at $25; Winners of the ticket lottery must be present at the time of the drawing and entries are limited to one per person and two tickets per winner. • For more information call (800) 982-2787 or visit www.BookofMormonTheMusical.com.

Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health has been distinguished as the only nationally ranked children’s hospital in Indiana by U.S. News & World Report, which released its 2014-15 achievement Best Children’s Hospitals rankings on June 10.

Riley at IU Health continues to be ranked among the top 50 pediatric facilities nationwide for a range of pediatric specialties. Notably, the hospital’s urology program has been named No. 2 in the country.

This year, fewer than 100 U.S. children’s hospitals were ranked in at least one of the 10 pediatric specialties U.S. News evaluates. Based on a combination of clinical data and reputation among pediatric specialist around the Sperring country, Riley at IU Health ranked in nine of these areas, including: cardiology & heart surgery, diabetes & endocrinology, gastroenterology & GI surgery, nephrology, neurology & neurosurgery, orthopedics, pulmonology and urology.

“Recognition of this caliber is possible only because of the unshakable commitment our team shows to every patient and family member who steps foot inside our doors, whether for an asthma checkup or a life-saving heart transplant,” stated Riley President and CEO Dr. Jeff Sperring, a Noblesville resident. “That caring spirit is what makes Riley a standout institution.”

U.S. News introduced the Best Children’s Hospitals rankings in 2007 to help families of sick children find the best medical care available. To gather clinical data, U.S. News sent a clinical questionnaire to 183 pediatric hospitals. More than 80 percent of each hospital’s score relied on patient outcomes and the care-related resources each hospital makes available.

The remaining percentage derived from a survey of 4,500 pediatric specialists, administered during a three-year period. The physicians were asked where they would send the sickest children in their specialty, regardless of location and expense.

Achievement – Riverview Health was recently chosen as a 2014 Five-Star Excellence Award winner by Professional Research Consultants, Inc., a healthcare market research company. The honor was given to Riverview Health Inpatient Services and OB/GYN Services for scoring in the top 10 percent nationally for “excellent” responses according to patient feedback.

New senior living community

By Chris Bavender • news@currentinfishers.com Even before residents began to move in last week, the staff at Meadow Brook Senior Living were rolling out the welcome now open mat for the community as they hosted a neighborhood barbecue June 7.

Construction on the Assisted Living and Memory Care Unit community – located at 11011 Village Square Lane in Fishers, began 14 months ago. It is the first Spectrum Retirement Community in Indiana. The company – headquartered in Denver – has 30 communities across the country with seven more under construction, including one in Carmel, which is set to open next year.

“Before we decide on community there is a lot of demographics research that goes into the community and is there a need and, if so, what is the need most great for,” said Kathleen MacDonald, Spectrum vice president of marketing. “In the Fishers area the need was more so for the assisted living and memory care.”

The 95-unit, $17.5 million retirement community features 10 Ambassador Suites – larger apartments with full kitchens. Residents still have the option to have their meals in the community dining area if they want, and have access to medical assistance if needed.

Meadow Brook also offers a Transitional Memory Care program which allows seniors with mild dementia to get the help they need while maintaining a lot of independence.

“They become more self-conscious and start

to isolate themselves more. We saw it happening in some of our communities and thought that while they were not ready to move into the memory care unit they still needed some help,” MacDonald said. “We have a life-enrichment specialist who understands people with this condition – who are in the beginning stages – and works with them from the minute they are up to the end of the day.”

Forty percent of the two-story facility is dedicated to community living space – from a surround sound theatre to a salon to a wellness area - according to MacDonald. It also offers month-to-month rent on its studio and two bedroom apartments.

“There are no buy in fees. If you move in and your circumstances change or your family moves out of state, you don’t lose money.” MacDonald said. “If you move in and it’s not the right fit there is a 60-day money back guarantee.”

Meadow Brook is open for tours. For more information call 537-0157 or visit www.meadowbrookseniorliving.com.

What do your clients care about?

Commentary by CJ McClanahan A few years ago, I received an email from one of my sales coaching clients letting me know that they were move the needle terminating my contract. I asked for a brief explanation as to why. They indicated that three main factors led to their decision. First, I wasn’t holding their team accountable. Second, I seemed to review the same material each week and third, I hadn’t taught them anything about social media.

I was shocked to hear the rationale behind their decision. I would never agree to hold a sales team accountable (it’s their manager’s job), I review the fundamentals each week until the team begins to put them into practice and at the time I didn’t know the password for my Twitter account.

So, what happened?

The reason this client became dissatisfied with my services had nothing to do with performance.

They terminated my contract because I wasn’t meeting their expectations. At some point I stopped paying attention to what they really wanted and instead focused on what I thought was important.

This type of miscommunication leads to most arguments, both personal and professional.

In theory, making your clients happy is a simple

concept – find out what someone expects and make sure you always deliver a little bit more.

First, you need to set expectations. By “set” I mean that you should help them understand exactly what you feel is a reasonable expectation from your company. This is different than simply “understanding” expectations and the distinction is important.

Next, build a set of uncomplicated systems for exceeding these expectations. For example, if you own an accounting firm and have set the expectation that taxes will be completed by April 15, you had better have a system in place to collect your client’s information by mid-March.

Finally, measure your results to ensure that you are exceeding the expectations you set.

Also, review these results with your clients on a regular basis. You’ll be amazed at how quickly people forget conversations and allow expectations to drift.

It’s a simple process and as with just about everything, it’s your choice to follow it or not.

Choose wisely.

Don’t mistake these words Commentary by Jordan Fischer The English language has a lot of words that look alike. Some of them are related, some have nearly identical meangrammar guy ings, and others just don’t mean the same thing at all. The latter tends to cause confusion when speakers aren’t familiar with the differences. To help you avoid a mix-up, here are a few words that share looks, but not meanings.

Contingent and contingency: You probably know the word contingency. It’s often paired with plan and means a possible event. Its adjectival form, contingent, means subject to chance or dependent on something not yet certain (i.e.

Your ability to go on vacation is contingent upon your request for days off being accepted).

The noun contingent, however, means a representative group or a quota of troops. The correct way to use it would be to say, “A contingent from the Associated Press has asked the White House for greater transparency.” Often those unfamiliar with the word will erroneously use contingency in a situation like this rather than contingent.

Levee and levy – A levee is a structure built to prevent a river from flooding nearby land. To

levy is to impose a tax or draft.

Regimen and regiment – A regimen is a regulated course of diet, exercise or manner of living. A doctor might prescribe a regimen of antibiotics to counter a bacterial infection in a patient. A regiment is a military unit.

Reign and rein – This one is a little confusing.

A reign is the rule of a monarch, and reins are straps used to control an animal. However, phrases like “take the reins” – to take control – and “free rein” – to be without constraints – create, an artificial similarity between the words under the brain’s label of “words that mean control.”

Desert and dessert – You’d think people would have learned this one by now, but I’ve seen it messed up everywhere from billboards to restaurant menus to websites. A dessert is the course after dinner – typically something sweet like pie or ice cream. A desert is a barren or uninhabitable place. If you’re eating a desert after dinner, you’re doing it wrong.

The Palace of Westminster (Photo by Don Knebel)

Westminster’s home of traditions Commentary by Don Knebel The Palace of Westminster, lying along the west bank of the River Thames, is the official name of the building housing England’s ParliaTravel ment. Although most of the eightacre complex was built in the 19th century, its traditions reflect a much longer history.

The original Palace of Westminster, the London home of English kings before becoming the meeting place of Parliament, was almost completely destroyed by fire in 1834. Parliamentary committees rejected proposed classical designs they thought suggested the White House and U. S. Capitol, considered symbols of rebellion. They selected instead a style known as “perpendicular Gothic,” with three towers more than 300 feet tall. The building, completed in 1870, includes 1,100 rooms, 100 stairways, three miles of hallways and a shooting range. “Big Ben” is a bell, housed in the Elizabeth Clock Tower. The Chambers for the House of Commons were rebuilt after being bombed in World War II and intentionally has fewer seats than members.

The building incorporates traditions from earlier eras. The Lord Speaker of the House of Lords sits on a red sack of wool reflecting the central

importance of wool to England’s medieval economy, a custom dating from the 14th century. A box of snuff near the entrance to the Commons Chamber has been kept full since at least the 17th century, when smoking was banned. Members of Parliament from opposing parties face each other on historic green-covered benches, with two red lines on the floor between them demarking an area where no one may stand. The lines are said to be two sword lengths apart to prevent dueling. MPs are expected to hang their swords on pink ribbons in the cloak room.

The best time to visit the Palace of Westminster is on Wednesdays, when the Prime Minister fields questions from the Leader of the Opposition, accompanied by heckling and cat calls. The session has gotten less raucous since the questioning time was moved to before lunch, when MPs used to down a pint or two to get ready, but it is still entertaining. Seats in the now shielded Strangers’ Gallery are limited, so plan ahead.

Generating shade to relax, escape Commentary by Randy Sorrell

14159 Clay Terrace Blvd. Carmel, IN 46032 | henryspubandgrill.com | 317.575.9005

The featured project speaks to many luxury outdoor living trends from the need for shade to the love of employing natural OUTdoors materials. This hidden patio almost feels neglected from the rest of the property. It’s nestled off the side of the house, not necessarily easy to get to and is recessed into the grade by three substantial cut-limestone slab steps. And its’ perfect. Exactly what the homeowners wanted to experience when we planned this escape from reality for them. It’s there place to manage a little down time from the kids, read a book and enjoy a glass of wine.

SHADE STRATEGIES How to generate appropriate shade is perhaps the most frequently asked question we respond to. Of course shade trees are very affective, but waiting several years for impact is typically not preferred. Umbrellas are fantastic too, and we employ them often, but can get in the way.

Often, it’s a combination of strategies that bring the hoped for shade and the structur-

ally sound pergola is a preferred tool. A wellplanned pergola can echo architectural details from the interior of the home serving to blend the spaces together. It can formalize an area or naturalize it based upon construction details and paint palette. But mostly it simply creates a nice dappled shade area that travels with the path of the sun.

This pergola serves to create the sense of space that we often refer to. It offers a ceiling and boundary to the patio and provides a marvelous structure for a wisteria to spread itself on.

Expect to see creative shade creating innovations from brilliant minds across the globe in the next few years. Sure, we love the sun and the happiness a few hours absorbing those nutrients provides. But we also love our skin and being healthy requires fewer sunburns and more dappled shade.

Cool kitchen and bath ideas

Commentary by David Decker

•

We are always on the lookout for new trends, styles and updates that can transform your living spaces. Here, I’ve compiled a indoors list of cool ideas for kitchen and bathroom updates that may inspire you to jumpstart a few summer renovation projects. Take a look and start feeling creative.

Kitchen • Floating shelves: Instead of storing their dishes away in cupboards and cabinetry, more homeowners are choosing to display them as part of the kitchen aesthetic. Floating shelves are designed to be installed on a wall without showing any hardware or stabilizing brackets.

• Brass, black and gold metals: In everything from faucets to cabinet fixtures, brass, black and brushed gold have become trendier trendy than traditional silver.

• Colorful backsplashes: Looking for a way to put a pop of color into your neutral kitchen? Try using colored tiles to create a visually exciting backsplash. Tiles are so versatile that you can experiment with designs using solid colors, patterns or mosaics.

• Corner sinks: Most kitchens don’t utilize the corner for anything more than a countertop or appliance. A corner sink can free up your countertop space while bring a unique and trendy look to the kitchen.

•

•

Because they take up less space than the traditional tiled-in-tub, many homeowners are choosing to install a freestanding tub. (Submitted photo)

• Outside kitchens: For the family who enjoys eating, cooking and entertaining in the sunny weather, an outside kitchen is the perfect set-up. Outside kitchens are growing in popularity around the country, because they are so impressive, glamorous and functional at the same time.

Bathroom • Stand alone tubs: Because they take up less space than the traditional tiled-in-tub, many homeowners are choosing to install

•

a freestanding tub. This also frees up space to create a luxurious modern shower.

Luxury showers: When it comes to relaxing and unwinding after a tough day, showers are becoming more popular than bathtubs. Look for spacious showers that don’t include a traditional bench seat.

Innovative storage: Bathrooms always seem overcrowded with beauty products, shaving kits, soaps, electronics and more.

Maximize your storage space by taking advantage of moveable storage, deep cabinet drawers and behind the door storage.

Glamorous lighting: A great lighting scheme in the bathroom can help you start and end your day in the right mood. Ditch your traditional overhead, vanity lighting for some innovative LED backlighting or stylish wall sconces. Install an overhead light or chandelier for an extra touch of elegance.

Smart electronics and appliances: Technological advances like touch-less faucets, high efficiency toilets and showerheads that conserve water are in high demand.
