Around town Geist Vet-To-Vet chapter: ‘veterans healing veterans’ COMMUNITY

By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com

Upcoming meetings

The death-toll for U.S. troops in Afghanistan since 2001 recently hit 2,000 this month.

When the soldiers that make it out alive come home from a tour of duty, they may wage another war: one with post-traumatic stress disorder and other psychological issues.

There’s a group in Geist that wants to stand by the sides of veterans, young and old, as they struggle with mental health issues.

Vet-To-Vet, an organization endorsed by the Veterans Administration, is a counseling group for veterans that need help coping after serving the country.

“If we just get one (veteran) to walk through our door, then it’ll be worthwhile,” founder and facilitator John Smitha said.

Smitha is a Cold War veteran that participated in special operations in various countries, including the formerEast Germany and Libya.

He started the group, which meets at both campuses of the Geist Christian Church, about three years ago. The number of veterans that meet weekly fluctuates, but Smitha and the facilitators are trying to pull younger veterans in.

“It’s (facilitating, healing and counseling) one of the most gratifying things I’ve done all my life,” he said.

Smitha describes the group as “veterans healing veterans.”

• Mondays • Geist Christian Church – North Campus (Fishers) • Promise Road and 126th Street • 6 to 7 p.m.

• Tuesdays • Geist Christian Church – South Campus (Indianapolis) • Mud Creek and 86th Street • 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

• Thursdays • Fort Benjamin Harrison Veterans’ Center (Indianapolis) • 6 to 7 p.m.

Veterans that participate in the process are taught how to cope with PTSD, which Smitha said is a lifelong battle akin to alcoholism. The disorder and other types of trauma can manifest in different ways, including survivor’s guilt.

Smitha is trying to spread the word about Vet-To-Vet so young soldiers coming home from today’s battlefields know they’re not alone and can avoid letting PTSD bottle up, unlike the number of Vietnam veterans that support the group.

Smitha said today’s veterans are coming back with 17 symptoms of the disorder, a much higher count than those that served in the Vietnam War. “It takes a big man to ask for help,” he said.

According to Smitha, both male and female soldiers participate with the group, but other commitments often disrupt the frequency in which they show up.

“We’re not just a bunch of old dudes sitting around telling war stories,” Smitha said.

Confidentiality is key for the Vet-To-Vet group, and even though the veterans meet at Geist Christian Church, religion is not a focal point. Nor is today’s political climate.

Smitha stresses that even though the conflict he served in was different than that of other veterans, they can all relate to each other because they all experienced the same aspects of war-taking lives and seeing friends die.

For more information contact Smitha at johnsmitha@comcast.net.

Community Spotlight: Donning the armor for a cause

UGLIEST CAR contest

(IF you don't enter, you can't win!)

By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Fishers Renaissance Faire volunteer and Noblesville resident Jim Fort dons his suit of armor for many reasons.

The shiny metal plates covering his limbs protect him from sharp blades and hard hits in “sword-on-foot” competitions. Plated gauntlets sit on top of his arms, and on a sunny day, the suit of armor is bright and reflective.

But it’s more than protection in medieval competitions and more than a way of catching the glint of the sun or the eye of passerby. It’s an apparatus for helping others.

“Every time I get to put it (the armor) on, it’s one more reason to justify buying it,” Fort said.

Fort participated in his first local Renaissance Faire in 2007, and since then started working with the YMCA and schools to talk to kids about what he does as a knight and participate in various programs.

According to Fort’s colleague Julien Hall-Dobbs with the YMCA, in 2009, a child participating in the Make a Wish program at Riley Children’s Hospital requested a knight to watch over him. In short, Fort and an entourage, including its own Queen Elizabeth, came to the hospital to greet and knight the boy.

“It was 100 people in that tent (at Riley Hospital) and not a dry eye,” Hall-Dobbs said.

Fort said his favorite part in participating in the Renaissance Faire is getting to meet a lot of people. He’s taken his armor on the road and competed in sword-on-foot competitions in Texas, and his ultimate goal is to take it across the pond to England for a major competition.

His entity under the armor is John Fort, his father’s name. Fort’s standard shield bares his true family crest, a castle keep on a white field, surrounded by flames on top of a blue field with a single diagonal stripe. The top of the shield is adorned with two stars and a crescent.

When he’s not donning the armor, Fort is a father of two and retired from a telephone company. In his spare time, he likes to ride his motorcycle.

Fort said, “Don’t be afraid to dream.”

By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com Shirley Triller, Lake Stonebridge Homeowners’ Association vice president, caught a burglar in the act on Sept. 20.

Triller said when she arrived home around 2:30 p.m. she noticed a van parked close to her house.

Triller knew her husband was considering hiring a painter and thought nothing of the vehicle parked in the driveway. She noticed something was amiss with the lock on her front door. When she entered the house, the door frame was on the floor and possessions were nearby.

The burglar realized the homeowner was home, went out a different door, jumped in the van and peeled off. After realizing it would be impossible to get the plates of the van, Triller called Fishers Police Dept., which showed up on the scene and surrounded the house, in case an accomplice was still in the building.

FPD later posted a crime alert for a string of residential burglaries in various Fishers subdivisions.

The crime alert reported three residential burglaries in a total of four days.

Triller said she and FPD believed the burglar was in her home for approximately 15 minutes.

“I was really impressed with the police,” Triller said. “Do I think I’ll get my things back? No. Do I think they’ll catch him? Yeah, I do.”

The burglar made off with jewelry, silver items and a work laptop, among other items.

Triller received a call from a resident who found a pillow case near the Indian Lake subdivision that contained documents with her and her husband’s address and contact information.

“Be talking to your neighbors,” Triller said, “and watch out for them.”

According to Triller, other Fishers residents recently have been alerted to burglaries by home alarm systems.

“I guess it’s not a time to be afraid and retreat, it’s time to do something,” Triller said. “Take action. Get the community… join the neighborhood watch. Partner with the police.”

Good Samaritan Network’s Nancy Chance recognized by Traditional Home – Good Samaritan Network Executive Director Nancy Chance was recently recognized by Traditional Home magazine’s eighth annual Classic Woman Awards. The award recognizes five women across the United States “who exemplify the best in American volunteerism.” This year, Chance is part of a group of volunteers from different Chance corners of the country. However, she’s the only woman from the Midwest to receive the award. Chance founded the Good Samaritan Network, a not-for-profit that threads together agencies, churches and officials in Hamilton County to organize and coordinate volunteerism and support for those in need. Good Samaritan Network has been around since 1980, but was not formalized until 1995. The organization is composed of 64 agencies, 240 churches, nine township trustees, 32 food pantries and three free medical clinics, according to Traditional Home. Current in Fishers previously reported that anywhere from 900 to 1,500 people volunteer under the umbrella of Good Samaritan Network every year.

Town Council

Editor’s Note: Last week’s Fishers Town Council meeting was abnormally short. This council meeting had very few agenda items, with a 2013 budget presentation from Town Manager Scott Fadness and councilor comments taking up the majority of the meeting.

What happened: Resolution R100112 was passed in the consent agenda What it means: The Fishers Town Council needed to approve a funds transfer in order to pay for various expenses. According to the resolution, the total transfer was $171,315. Items in the funds transfer included $125,000 to pay for the project taking place in the Hamilton East Public Library, $10,815 for a copier, $5,000 for training expenses, $15,000 for recreation programs and $15,000 “to correct budget negative balances.”

What happened: An amendment to special event policy passed in the consent agenda What it means: There are town codes and a Special Events Policy that oversees “special events on public properties,” according to a council action form from Deputy Town Manager Nathan George.

In the past, groups, such as the Fishers Art Council, made requests from the town to have alcohol at events after being reviewed by the town staff. By approving this amendment, the town council set the process so alcohol at events is approved once reviewed by Special Event Permit Process/Committee as per town staff.

What happened: A public hearing on the 2013 Municipal Budget was held What it means: At the next Fishers Town Council meeting, the council may approve next year’s budget. Town Manager Scott Fadness said in the budget presentation that Fishers is in “strong fiscal health.” Fadness said general reserves are up, and Fishers has the lowest expenditures per capita of Carmel, Noblesville and Westfield. He went on to say that Fishers has the lowest amount of employees per 1,000 residents at 4.91. Fadness outlined three overall objectives for the 2013 budget, including “efficient and effective delivery of services, increased community development” and “strong and diverse economic development.” Various construction projects were highlighted, as Fadness well as additions in the public safety sector, such as the hiring of three new police officers. The total budget of $73,787,719 calls for an operating budget of $54,855,885, a capital budget of $8,185,204 and debt service budget of $10,746,630.

Cover Story

Fishers resident Gary Tarter floats over Hamilton County in personal ‘Cloud Hopper’

By Darla Kinney Scoles editorial@youarecurrent.com Gary Tarter doesn’t particularly care for heights. He doesn’t get up on his roof, can’t ride the Ferris wheel and has no plans to go skydiving any time soon. What he does enjoy, however, is a bit of a surprise in light of these admissions.

Tarter regularly pilots what is known as a Cloud Hopper – a one-person hot air balloon – and swears he doesn’t feel the height when he is aloft, moving with the wind and floating across Hamilton County.

The retired Fishers resident has been piloting balloons of various types since 1976, when he bought his first one for $6,000. It was just six months prior to that first purchase that he saw a colorful hot-air balloon for the very first time.

“One day while going to work, I spotted this balloon. I had never seen one before, so instead of going to work, I followed him,” Tarter said.

The pilot invited Tarter to spectate, and he got hooked.

It was at that event that Tarter met a pilot from Peru, Ind. and traveled with him to Ohio for a race the very next week. The time in between races was spent trying to convince his wife that they could afford to purchase such a craft themselves.

“Gary called me that first day and said ‘I’m following this balloon. I want to buy one!’” Linda Tarter said. “I was already a bit of a golf widow; I didn’t want to be a balloon widow, too.”

With light-plane piloting experience from the U.S. Army, Tarter had some knowledge of what flight entails, but Linda couldn’t read a map.

Now she is his number one crew member and chases him in their passenger van by “following her nose.”

Getting the Cloud Hopper – which has only a pilot seat with the propane tank strapped to the back – off the ground takes more than two people, so the Tarters rely on additional volunteer crew members for help.

“I thought I could fly it without help, but you still need a crew,” Tarter said. “I do enjoy being up there on my own, though, and piloting the Hopper itself.”

Tarter said he is one of only 25 Cloud Hopper owners in the United States.

cording to Tarter. A group of pilots generally meets in a central location, with maps, weather reports, wind charts and a helium-filled balloon to send up for higher wind direction and speed estimates. They then designate a location to launch, plot a potential path and discuss several landing points.

Then the rush begins to get to the launch site and in the air while the weather holds good and before the sun gets too low.

“It’s just fun,” explains Tarter. “Everybody enjoys it and seems to be as excited about it as I am. When I land in someone’s yard or a neighborhood park everyone runs over to see and to help. Most people love us and we love interacting. This is a very friendly area.”

Only once or twice has Tarter encountered an angry landowner and avoids landing in places where he feels he might not be welcome unless weather conditions force him to do so. Usually Linda is not far behind in the van to help him out of any sticky situations – a job she says is made easy by radios and cell phones.

Linda appreciates help from onlookers who gather when Gary lands and encourages those who see a balloon land to come and meet them.

“Don’t be bashful,” states Linda, “come talk to us and help if you can. This is a fun thing to share.”

Opinion Help us help Chaucie's Place

Sign language It is our position that political discussions should be an acceptable form of public discourse. Greek philosopher Aristotle famously asserted that “Man is a political animal.”

Yet, in most social circles, people avoid two main topics - religion and politics - for the sake of peace. If political discussions are avoided among friends and neighbors, how can society truly gain an understanding of the issues at hand and unite in sensible solutions? That social stigma is perhaps how political pundits gain and keep their pedestals.

An easy way to start the conversation in your own backyard is by displaying a yard sign. There is no such thing as a free lunch, and that includes certain campaign signs.

Out of the millions of dollars in campaign financing, why aren’t signs free? It’s a low tech, direct way of displaying support for candidates and political platforms. For those fearful of retaliation for displaying a yard sign, it’s a potential criminal act if the signs are removed by an unauthorized source. The stakes are especially high this election year.

Show a sign of support. At the very least, fly an American flag, talk to your neighbors and respect their right to express an opinion.

There's something about scary Commentary by Terry Anker

Halloween is rapidly approaching and with it comes the corresponding host of traditions.

Some of us will festoon the house – top to bottom with all matter of frightening (and fun) paraphernalia designed to usher in the coming winter. Others, no doubt, will resist the event all together decrying the ritual, at best, as a fiction invented by enterprising greeting card manufacturers (like so many modern American holidays) or, at worst, a throwback to paganism unworthy of national celebration. But many more will simply carve a pumpkin, help the kids dress as their favorite Disney princess or mutant ninja turtle, and pass out some candy picked up earlier that day at a convenience store on the way home from work.

Our family falls somewhere into the last camp. We break out relatively modest fall gear, including a few ghoul-specific tchotchke to instruct the world that we know what month it is. Yet when a couple of kids were added to our little home, Halloween took on new sig-

nificance. Now instead of thinking what topical couple would be especially entertaining for our friends at their annual Monster’s Bash, Carolyn and I became the consummate parents. We dutifully planned kids’ costumes and executed elaborate strategies to make the most of the annual event. For these 17 years or so, my mom has made an outstanding chili dinner (the first of the autumn), Carolyn would fill the candy dish and pass it generously to neighborhood kids, and I would conspire with other dads on the block to shepherd our collective of little beggars from door to door.

This year, my youngest announced that he’d rather go with friends in an adjacent neighborhood for the night’s festivities. I understand. He’s old enough; but for me, it may be the scariest Halloween ever. And, I’m not sure I’m ready.

November referenda and the democratic process

Commentary by Dan Domsic

It’s not too often that people actively can participate on a level of democracy that truly impacts their day-to-day governance.

Sure, presidential elections and primaries mean a lot. But most of those elected officials take a seat of power far away from the people for which they work. Their interactions with constituents are relegated to spots on network TV and the occasional speech, at least that’s how it appears to me.

Fishers faces a much different situation Nov. 6.

The referendum for the town’s government will appear on the ballot before the presidential question.

Voters have the opportunity to directly decide how they’re governed. If you’ve been reading Current during the past two months, you know some of the nuts and bolts about the referendum.

I’ve made it a habit to ask people what they think of the referendum, even if the story I’m working on is unrelated – it’s just good to have a gauge of what people are thinking in terms of this democratic opportunity.

The reactions I’ve received are all over the

board. People’s feelings on the issue are varied from don’t fix something that isn’t broken to a certain level of apathy.

At the open forums for the town, the crowds also fluctuate. I see both new and old faces at these meetings. Some of the same supporters are there to chat up town officials and voters.

I hope to see even more as the election draws closer. There’s something special about being able to take part in a vote like this.

Americans talk all day about our level of freedom, ability to make a difference for ourselves and others, having a say when it comes to our leaders and ultimately being the masters of our own individual fates. The rhetoric says that we all have a voice that can and will be heard.

Prove the rhetoric right.

Now that I can step down from my soapbox, feel free to chat with me about local happenings at Hearthstone Coffeehouse & Pub from 3 to 5 p.m., Tuesdays.

New baby doesn’t impact twin powers Commentary by Danielle Wilson People ask me all the time about having a twin sister. Are you identical? Are you close?

Do you have special powers? (See below for answers.) Truth be told, being a twin is one of the coolest freaks of nature possible, and I can’t imagine life without one.

No, we are fraternal. She does have red hair, a shade much less abrasive than mine, but wears it curly and short, and does not require mascara to look alive. She is also smaller than I am, and she rarely has to adjust her position in a photo shoot to avoid the giant-head dilemma I generally encounter.

Yes, we are close. Despite having lived in Los Angeles for almost 20 years, she is one of my best friends. We share memories of our Nanny burning Jiffy Pop on her gas stove, getting paddled as first-graders for saying “ass,” and surviving a train derailment in the Appalachian Mountains. And though we are on opposite ends of the career spectrum – I teach math and she restores art – we both secretly crave the spotlight and like to re-enact scenes from Mommy Dearest and Breakfast Club.

Sometimes, we do have secret powers, none of which I can divulge at risk of forfeiting them to a higher power. But we did survive a train accident!

So why am I writing about my twin? Well, good reader, she has been on my mind. She just www.currentinfishers.com

had her first baby, see, and while I am absolutely thrilled for her, I’m selfishly a little down that the experience hasn’t brought us closer. I thought as soon as she became a mother, we’d finally be able to relate on another level entirely.

That she’d be constantly emailing with questions, that she’d be sending hordes of photos, and even, fingers crossed, that she’d call sobbing because she just couldn’t handle another sleepless night with an anti-breastfeeding infant.

But there’s been none of that. I’ve yet to hear any complaining, whining, or hormone-induced hysteria, any “What have we done?” exclamations, not even a “This is really hard.” I haven’t had to talk her off any ledges or recommend a good hemorrhoid cream. Fact is, she doesn’t need me. My ultimate-sister role has been replaced by a beautiful little girl who looks a lot like her mom. Which, of course, is the way it should be, but I can’t help feeling a little sad, like maybe this is the end of our special bond. Sigh.

Enough already! No more melancholy prose for me. “Wonder twin powers, activate!” I’m just going to let her know I’m here for her in whatever capacity she needs. That’s what twins, in particularly sisters, are really for, right? Peace out.

VIEWS

Humor

The old college try

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I’m the opposite of a pack rat. In fact, I hate clutter so much that my wife spends most of every Sunday night sorting through the trash that I have readied for pick-up the next day.

She’s concerned that in my compulsive “tidying” I might throw away something of value. Okay, maybe I was a bit hasty trashing that album full of photos of her great grandfather, but they were in black and white. You can’t keep everything.

The only thing I have trouble throwing away is old periodicals. Hundreds of Time magazines, for example, are piling up—about seven years of them. Why? I have always believed history repeats itself, and if that starts happening, I could cancel my subscription and save a few bucks by simply re-reading old issues in my basement.

Another publication I have stacked in a corner of my office is the George Washington University Alumni Magazine. I seldom read it because I know there is no chance I’m going to be mentioned in it. Most of the folks who earn a shout-out are either CEOs of megacorporations, lobbyists, celebrities…or men and women who have passed on but had the foresight to hand over half their fortunes to the GWU endowment.

I think every university has an obligation to celebrate all graduates, even average Joes like me. Here’s the kind of thing I’d like the association to print sometime:

Eric Henchman (Class of ’67): Eric blew off his senior year, spending most of his time in the pool room at the all-women’s dorm. Fortunately for him, his dad left him a boatload of cash, none of which this office has ever seen. But he’s a nostalgic guy and still occasionally hangs out at the girls’ dorm—just for old time’s sake.

Jane Margolis (Class of ’73): Jane graduated with a 2.6 grade point average. In fact, just about everything about Jane was average. She married her high school sweetheart, Ted, has three grown kids, and is one of the youngest Walmart greeters in Chevy Chase, Maryland.

Dick Wolfsie (Class of ’69): Dick was a big shot on campus from 1965 to 1969, but he has generally been a disappointment to all of us who expected great things (and a lot of money) from him since then. He spent nine years teaching at his former high school and could often be found after school meeting with the very teachers who had kept him after school just four years earlier. He left teaching in 1980 and has bounced around local TV in Indiana for about 30 years.

He always seems to be in between jobs, and coincidentally it’s whenever we call him for a donation.

Dick Wolfsie is an author, columnist, and speaker. Contact him at wolfsie@aol.com.

I’m not optimistic about getting a mention in that alumni magazine in the near future. But I’m still relatively young. Based on what’s in my basement, I have plenty of Time.

NEW HOPE FOR CHILDREN with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADD and ADHD

Highly Trained Medical Staff • Advanced Individualized Treatment Options • Most Major Medical Insurance Plans Accepted Genetic Consultation • Review of Medical records • Laboratory testing

“While early intervention is critical, ASD Treatment Clinic taught us it is never too late with children on the Autism Spectrum. We have three teenage children on the spectrum with varying ranges of disabilities. With Genetic Consultants of Indiana, ASD Treatment Clinic we learned what was happening to our children from the inside out. I call it our roadmap. We found out what our children needed without guessing or trying experimental treatments.

Plus we loved that our major medical insurance was accepted.” - Bob & Sharon Smith, IN

“A child sneaks out of the house, runs away, is hyper, has minimal focus and can’t socialize with friends for more than a minute. That used to be our son, Jack.

• SOCIALIZATION: Why is my child having difficulty making friends?

• IMPULSIVENESS: Why doesn’t my child understand consequences of his/her actions?

• FOCUSING: Why does my child have problems paying attention in school and at home?

• HYPERACTIVITY: Why can’t my child sit still, and has trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep?

• ANGER: Why does my child display such anger and gets out of control with his/her emotions?

If you can relate to any of these questions there is help.

People think the answer to autism and ADHD are psychiatric medicines, but we knew that was only going to cover up his real symptoms. Despite this, we tried several mainstream treatments that produced little to no results. In the six months that Jack has been on the protocol through ASD Treatment Clinics, he has experienced much improvement with his focus, learning ability, behavior and overall wellbeing.

Early intervention is very important for children on the autism spectrum and we thank God that we were led to the ASD Treatment Clinic. Jack now has a treatment that we can trust will improve not only his life but the lives of our entire family.”

Local orchards suffered losses in apple crop, but will continue fall festivities.

Carmel: Applefest – From 1 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 13, Carmel Applefest will take place in the PNC Bank parking lot, located on the northwest corner of Main St. and Range Line Rd. Enjoy live music, food, vendors, an art contest, kids' games, a raffle and more. The event is free and open to the public.

Katy Frantz • katy@youarecurrent.com The bite of frost in April this year caused an incomparable loss of apples, but local apple orchards and stores will still be selling the iconic fall fruit and hosting festivities.

Stuckey Farm owner Jeff Pierce said the trees there bloomed early this year due to the abnormally warm February and March. But then the chill of April came back to bite the blooms.

Apple orchards had to buy from other states that did not suffer the loss. Stuckey Farm, located at 19975 Hamilton-Boone County Line Rd., Sheridan, has shipped in a majority of apples from eastern Pennsylvania and some from Illinois.

Spencer Farms in Noblesville does not have u-pick apples, but usually buys produce from Garwood Orchards in LaPorte, Ind. Mike Garwood, one of the owners of the orchard, said about 20 to 25 percent of their crop survived the frost, though he is still shipping in apples from Colorado or Idaho.

The Indiana State Dept. of Agriculture said it does not yet have numbers on apple orchard production for this year. Garwood made an estimated guess that Indiana usually produces two million bushels a year, but this year may only have produced less than 100,000 bushels.

John Shambora, who works at Spencer Farms, says prices have risen for them. The same is true for Gatewood Vegetable Farm and Greenhouses, where prices have increased by a possible 60 percent, while some varieties have almost doubled in price.

At Stuckey Farm, Pierce believes prices have increased by an estimated 60 percent in comparison to last year’s price. In fact, anything related to apples has gone up, including the Stuckey cider.

Fishers: Fishers Switch Amphitheatre Grand Opening – The cornerstone in the Town of Fishers Nickel Plate District, the Fishers Switch Amphitheatre, opens this Saturday.

Farm for the past 15 years, said this year was very rare. She said in the past Stuckey Farm may have brought in difference varieties of apples that were unavailable to them, but she had never experienced a loss like this year.

Yet in spite of the frost in April, the Stuckey Farm still is making their famed apple cider from imported apples. It will be sold in stores such as Gatewood’s in Noblesville, Lilly Orchard in Indianapolis and the IGA in Sheridan, Lebanon and Thorntown.

“It still tastes the same,” said Pierce. “We are just borrowing apples from other orchards.”

Gatewood Vegetable Farm and Greenhouses has been buying The Stuckey Farm apple cider for more than 30 years. Bruce Gatewood, the son of owners Bill and Nancy, is now the manager of the business. He remembers, as a child, visiting The Stuckey Farm with his father to pick up their cider order.

Gatewood Vegetable Farm buys the apples sold in-store from an orchard in northern Indiana. This year Gatewood ordered apples as early as April in order to get a part in the apple crop.

“We knew it was going to be short since it was

warm too long [in February],” Gatewood said.

Many businesses that sell apples also sell pumpkins. The pumpkins at Stuckey Farm are doing marvelously well this year. The Stuckey Farm has 10 acres of u-pick pumpkins that are “looking great” and could possibly be the best Pierce has seen in eight years.

Unfortunately for Gatewood Vegetable Farm the pumpkin weigh-in, which they have hosted for the past 16 years, will not be hosted at their store this year. It has been moved to northern Indiana.

The local orchards and produce stores faced incredible loss this year in the apple crop, but the festivities will continue throughout the fall.

Stuckey Farm will continue selling pumpkins and apples as well as hosting events throughout October: hayrides, readings of James Whitcomb Riley poetry and Flashlight Night in their corn maze. Gatewood Vegetable Farm will also be selling apples, pumpkins and Stuckey cider. Spencer Farms will have hayrides through their pumpkin patch. Their homemade fudge, Garwood apples and other goodies will be available as well.

Mongolian Beef Ingredients: 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, 1/2 teaspoon ginger, minced, 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup water, 3/4 cup dark brown sugar, vegetable oil, for frying (about 1 cup), 1 lb flank steak, 1/4 cup cornstarch, 2 large green onions, sliced on the diagonal into one-inch lengths Directions: Make the sauce by heating 2 tsp of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over med/low heat. Don't get the oil too hot. Add ginger and garlic to the pan and quickly add the soy sauce and water before the garlic scorches.

Dissolve the brown sugar in the sauce, then raise the heat to about medium and boil the sauce for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens.Remove it from the heat. Slice the flank steak against the grain into 1/4" thick bite-size slices (Tilt the blade of your knife at about a forty five degree angle to the top of the steak so that you get wider cuts). Dip the steak pieces into the cornstarch to apply a very thin dusting to both sides of each piece of beef. Let the beef sit for about 10 minutes so that the cornstarch sticks. As the beef sits, heat up one cup of oil in a wok (you may also use a skillet for this step as long as the beef will be mostly covered with oil). Heat the oil over medium heat until it's nice and hot, but not smoking. Add the beef to the oil and sauté for www.currentinfishers.com

just two minutes, or until the beef just begins to darken on the edges. You don't need a thorough cooking here since the beef is going to go back on the heat later. Stir the meat around a little so that it cooks evenly. After a couple minutes, use a large slotted spoon to take the meat out and onto paper towels, then pour the oil out of the wok or skillet. Put the pan back over the heat, dump the meat back into it and simmer for one minute. Add the sauce, cook for one minute while stirring, then add all the green onions.

Cook for one more minute, then remove the beef and onions with tongs or a slotted spoon to a serving plate. Leave the excess sauce behind in the pan. - Food.com Current in Fishers

Don't spoil fun with 'poison' After a long day or night of cheering, singing and enjoying delicious food at a tailgate party, the typical fan just wants to get home, relax and unwind. This can be the perfect ending to a great day; unfortunately, this is also the time when those nasty little symptoms from improper care of food occur.

These folks are experiencing symptoms of food poisoning from their tailgate parties. The most common cause of symptoms like cramps, diarrhea, and nausea is Salmonella bacteria. There can also be much more severe problems from E.Coli bacteria, which can be killed by cooking meat to a temperature of 160 degrees. To do that, you need a food thermometer. Salmonella, although generally less severe in symptoms, has many more places where it is found. It can be in red meats like E.Coli but is also found in poultry, eggs, unprocessed milk and even water. Here are some simple rules to avoid food poisoning: • Buy only USDA inspected meats with current freshness dates. • Wash hands, utensils, and cutting boards that touch or will touch food. Have a jug of water and anti-bacterial soap handy at the tailgate with plenty of paper towels. • Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold.

Perishable foods should be kept below 40 degrees. Don’t let them sit out too long.

Free seminar to discuss sinus issues, balloon sinuplasty editorial@youarecurrent.com Sinusitis affects 37 million people each year, making it one of the most common health problems in the U.S. In the Midwest, as many as one in five people have complaints of chronic Sinusitis with incidents rising during peak allergy seasons of the spring and fall. Riverview Sinus Center is glad to provide some relief to patients by offering a surgical option for the treatment of Sinusitis called Balloon Sinuplasty.

Balloon Sinuplasty is a new option to traditional sinus surgery and is the first truly innovative approach to treating chronic sinusitis in the past 20 years. Balloon Sinuplasty offers many advantages over traditional techniques.

Balloon Sinuplasty is minimally invasive. It does not destroy normal tissue. It gently remodels your anatomy to help restore normal function. It does not require packing under normal situations. It has been rigorously studied in multiple peer-reviewed journals and it has been shown to be effective. Best of all many people New Community Health Network Foundation president and CEO starts Oct. 22 – Joyce Irwin, Roche Diagnostics’ past recent national director of state government affairs, regulatory and public policy, was recently named as the new president and CEO of the Community Health Network Foundation, a notIrwin for-profit branch of Community Health Network that financially supports health improvement programs in central Indiana. “We are pleased to bring Joyce on board with her extensive experience and leadership,” Bryan Mills, president and CEO of Community Health Network, said in a press release. “Her enthusiasm and knowledge will help propel the foundation into the future, as we look to develop strong fundraising strategies and relationships within all the local communities we serve.”

Riverview Sinus Center will offer a free seminar at 6 p.m. Oct. 16 presented by otolaryngologist Brad Bichey, MD, on the treatments available for sinusitis as well as information on whether Balloon Sinuplasty might be right for you. The event will take place in the Krieg DeVault Conference Room on the lower level of the Women’s Pavilion (entrance No. 11).

Insurance

Knowing when to increase your liability limits Commentary by Jamie Ianigro Question from Gregg S. from Carmel: I tell my clients (I’m a lawyer) all the time about the benefits of increased limits and umbrella policies.

I know it’s not costly, but could you approach the benefits from an insurance perspective?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: Thanks for your note Willis. When we talk about increasing limits, we’re talking about liability limits. Liability limits have become a little bit more confusing because of all the options that are available. Right off the bat, I’m going to take that choice down to a yes or no question. Should you increase your liability limits from the base limits? There are reasons to say “yes” and reasons to say “no.” Let’s start with why you might choose to not increase your limits.

You probably already know the reason to not increase your limits. It’s money. If you’re choosing between putting food on the table and increasing your insurance limits, it’s a pretty easy choice. However, increasing your limits is much less expensive then you may realize. Doubling your limits may only cost a couple of dollars per month after bundling your policies and selecting the proper payment plan.

The main reason to say “yes” to increasing your liability limits is also pretty easy. It’s a great way to protect your assets, your family and yourself. Most states have mandated what the minimum liability limits will be, but those minimum limits are rarely adequate.

A couple of things add to the reasons to make an increase to your liability limits. The first one is inflation. Medical costs have been sky rocketing for the last twenty years and show no signs of slowing. These trends pretty much guarantee that it’s going to be costly if you hurt someone with your vehicle or someone gets hurt on your property. Increasing your limits is a great strategy to prevent these costs from coming out of your personal assets.

One other thing to keep in mind is your level of risk. Increasing your level of risk only adds to the list of reasons you should increase your coverage limits. Keep these questions and others like them in mind when you think about your personal risks: • Do you drive car pools?

• Do you have multiple drivers in your household?

• Do you have a pool / trampoline / tree house / pond?

• Do you have a boat?

• Do you entertain guests often?

There are many things to think about and plenty of reasons to consider increasing your liability limits. As always, we recommend talking this over with your independent insurance agent to find the correct solutions for YOU.

Grand Opening

Fishers Switch Amphitheatre grand opening Saturday

By Dan Domsic • dan@youarecurrent.com After a summer’s worth of construction, the newest addition to the Nickel Plate District in downtown Fishers opens Saturday, Oct. 13.

The Fishers Switch Amphitheatre is located behind town hall, and the grand opening is free to the public.

Headlining the celebration is Forever – The Tribute, a Beatles cover band, at 7 p.m.

Opening for Forever is pop artist Jason Aaron Coons at 6 p.m. Coons recently debuted his album, “The Numbers,” in Indianapolis at the Earth House Collective.

More than music will be available to visitors during the opening. From 4 to 10:30 p.m. various vendors from the Fishers Farmer’s Market will provide fare, and from 6 to 10:30 p.m. food trucks will park adjacent to the amphitheatre.

Current in Fishers reported in June that the project cost $822,500 and was funded via the cumulative capital development fund, the Hamilton County Convention and Visitors Bureau and the park impact fee fund.

“This is an opportunity for the arts to drive economic development for the town,” Fishers Arts Council President Jocelyn Vare said.

Vare said events at the amphitheatre can

attract people and lead to a new, creative economic driver, in addition to giving artists a new opportunity and venue to reach the community.

Fishers Arts Council plans to hold the first Nickel Plate Music Fest on Oct. 27. The fest is a day-long event with more than a dozen bands

spanning a variety of genres, including heavy rock, reggae and folk. All of the bands are composed of musicians younger than 21, according to Vare.

“I’m not sure if this would have gotten off the ground and come to fruition if it wasn't for the amphitheatre,” she said.

Vare said Tony Elliot, assistant to the town manager, is spearheading Saturday's grad opening event and partnered with local businesses, such as clothing store Vardagen, to create tshirts and posters for the event, a new business opportunity.

Minimum of 1,000 tickets must be sold by drawing date. Drawing date subject to change.

Grammar Guy/Fashion

An end for prepositions Commentary by Jordan Fischer

I received an e-mail recently from reader Eric Edwards, 65, of Fishers, with a list of his grammar pet peeves.

I’m happy to say, my name wasn’t on his list.

What did make the cut, however, was one of the more persistent grammar misconceptions out there: ending sentences with a preposition.

This “rule” is a sort of grammar urban legend, like saying Bloody Mary three times in front of the mirror or the Pigman (What, you didn’t have a Pigman where you grew up?). It’s so prevalent, in fact, that even I have let myself be corrected on it from time to time, which, of course, breaks the first rule of being “that annoying grammar guy:” You’re never wrong.

Rule No. 2 is, if you are wrong, never admit it.

So here’s the big bombshell of the week: Go ahead and end your sentence with a preposition.

It’s totally fine. And since I’m just some guy, here’s the Oxford English Dictionary to back me up: “There’s no necessity to ban prepositions

from the end of sentences. Ending a sentence with a preposition is a perfectly natural part of the structure of modern English” (from OxfordDictionaries.com).

As the nice people at the Oxford Dictionary point out, the length sometimes required to avoid ending sentences with a preposition is going to turn you into Yoda. After all, it wasn’t “On Will Go My Heart” that took home an Academy Award for making audiences tear up during “Titanic,” and umpires don’t yell “Out he is!” That would just be silly.

So, the next time someone tries to correct you for ending a sentence with a preposition, just ask them where they learned that at. Then laugh at your irony and wit while they try to puzzle out what’s so funny.

And watch out for the Pigman.

Outdoor rooms: crafting a living space Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Rarely is an outdoor living space as immediately livable as this one. Most require the benefits of time to soften the stark reality of new.

Sure, new looks fantastic! But it can be a little harsh with the brightness of freshly installed patio stone and the striking contrast of young plants surrounded by fresh mulch.

This project, however, did not require the constraint of time. Perhaps it was the eastern exposure that hastened the glare and the overall jazzy design. Certainly the warmth of travertine sourced from Turkey coupled with the synthetic Azek decking had a serious impact on the instantaneous feel. Both have earthy undertones and distinct luxury textures that marry well together. The homeowner especially appreciates the generous upper landing as it spills onto the lower patio at a 45 degree angle for improved traffic flow. Very dramatic!

Travertine and Azek are a few of our preferred materials to work with for precisely this reason.

They age incredibly well, thrive in our mid-west harsh environment and will likely endure our lifetime while remaining relevant from a design perspective. I’m not confident that standard, concrete brick pavers and most other decking materials will offer that luxury.

Outdoor rooms Outdoor fire features, seat walls and pergolas

contribute to the immediacy of any project and forward the outdoor room sensation that many homeowners are hungry to establish. The stone structures benefited from the rich chocolate color of the clay paver ribbon inserted into the face of each, which was repeated into an upscale patio edge around the travertine body. For convenience, a gas starter was installed over crisp black lava rock.

New is wonderful. It’s fresh, stylish and is full

of excitement. Nothing, however, exceeds the benefit of a little time, seasoned with memories of grilling, impromptu gatherings and laughter.

Something old is something new … again Commentary by David Decker As fun as it is, staying on top of trends can also be an overwhelming pastime. Between the hip eateries to tempt your palette and the latest fashion plates to hit your hips, it’s hardly easy to not be intrigued to try something new and refreshing. Changing the look and feel of your existing home is no exception. Given the kitchen is often the most lived in space of the home, it can also be where we tire of the look the fastest … and spend the most money remodeling.

The good news—due to advances in refacing technologies, many homeowners are exploring the idea of replacing the existing doors and drawers by using materials that can offer the look and feel of an entire new space for a fraction of the cost.

Reface and rejuvenate The meaning of “re-facing” can carry with it several definitions. Often it can be mistakenly interchanged with ”re-finishing” but that is not the most ideal use of the term. In fact, it is more like a cabinet facelift to be descriptive in the cosmetic days we live in. So what are the steps that a homeowner should prepare for?

1. All doors and drawer headers are removed and replaced while exposed frames and ends are resurfaced with a

CHARLES W. CHAUDION “FULL SERVICE” AUCTIONEER

Chaudion 3rd Generation Since 1964 “ELITE” AUCTION SERVICE “ON-SITE” OR OUR BUILDING

real hardwood veneer.

2. Any portions of the cabinetry that will be veneered are sanded and cleaned to assure secure adhesion.

3. The new pre-finished veneer sheet is fitted to precise measurements and is then carefully applied for lasting adhesion. The veneered edges are trimmed flush with the cabinet components and sanded as needed. Often these edges are covered with special moldings.

4. The “new” doors and drawers are installed and drawer headers/boxes are replaced as needed. The final step in the process is mounting the molding and trim for a completely new and updated look to your kitchen and/or bath space.

DIY Don’t As much as a do-it-yourself cabinet refacing job can lend itselfresults, it can also quickly become a costly nightmare if you are

left without the proper skills or equipment. A cabinet contractor will use the correct tools to remove or install cabinet doors, drawer fronts and replace hardware. Safety should always be at the forefront of any kitchen renovation.

If your kitchen is older, you may have lead based painted cabinets that have dust particles that should be properly mitigated. Hiring a contractor with solid skill and familiarity with the materials and task at hand will most likely yield the best result not only for appearances but also for your checkbook by avoiding costly mistakes caused by lack of experience.
