Meyer Najem advocates for public art

By Beth Clark • news@currentinfishers.com Work on the new headquarters for Fishers-based construction firm Meyer Najem is nearing completion. The 40,000-square-foot building on arts the corner of Maple Street and Lantern Road in downtown Fishers will soon be home to one of the Midwest’s leading construction companies.

A few finishing touches remain before the firm transitions to its new space; little details like light fixtures, landscaping and commissioning a largescale, one-of-a-kind, exterior sculpture. The budget for the sculpture alone will be upward of $25,000.

Meyer Najem is set to lead the charge among Fishers corporations as a proponent of public art.

After initial plans were drafted for the new building, firm co-founders Anthony Najem and Karl Meyer approached the Fishers Arts Council and Hamilton County’s arts organization Nickel Plate Arts for suggestions on how best to incorporate public artwork into their building design. The solution, applauded

by Town of Fishers officials, is the installation of the sculpture on the grounds and dedicated space inside for art exhibitions.

“I can tell you that we were very excited that Meyer Najem reached out to us,” said Aili McGill, director of Nickel Plate Arts. “I strongly believe that this project sets a wonderful precedent in Fishers.

The fact that a very prominent business is investing so much in public art in downtown Fishers is a testament to how important art will be in growing, shaping and communicating the community’s iden-

tity and values in the coming years.”

Meyer Najem has embraced the idea of public art.

According to CEO Najem, the visual arts are a natural extension of a company dedicated to giving shape to architectural designs. Support for public art projects also complements the company’s vision of sharing its success within the communities it serves. “Art supplies a positive statement for a community. It adds a vital creative depth and dimension to what otherwise might be a generic, task-oriented, day-today business existence,” he said.

The prominent corner location of the new headquarters provides high visibility not only of the building’s unique design, but of the artwork placed outside. Artwork in this location is also a nice accompaniment to nearby arts attractions like the Nickel Plate District Amphitheatre. “Fishers has the ability to become one of the top arts communities in Central Indiana,” Najem added.

Meyer Najem, in partnership with Nickel Plate Arts, has posted a call to artists on the Nickel Plate Arts website, www.nickelplatearts.org. The scale of the sculpture is pre-determined by the intended location, but the theme for the artwork is general, allowing for creative expression. The sculpture is to be an eye-catching statement piece that fits the broad theme of “past meets present” and can incorporate multiple building materials.

The request for proposals is open to artists across the country, although special consideration will be given to artists with a close tie to Fishers and Hamilton County. Proposals are due Nov. 3.

Fishers Rotary helps Sierra Leone

By Holly Kline • news@currentinfishers.com The devastating West African Ebola outbreak has been dominating news headlines lately and the Fishers Rotary Club, fundraising a very active local service organization, is raising much-needed funds to help African nation Sierra Leone in its struggle against the disease.

“As a Rotary Club, we have a partnership with Rotary in Freetown, Sierra Leone,” explained Michele Whelchel, Fishers Rotary Club president.

“Their Rotary president reached out to us for help and their greatest need is protective gear.”

Whelchel said it’s common for Rotary Clubs in one district to partner and there are 45 clubs in the same district as Fishers Rotary. “As a challenge, we put out to local Rotary Clubs that if they donate $10,000, our Fishers Rotary Club will match that amount. We’re hoping to get the $10,000 collected in the next couple of weeks.”

Fishers Rotary Club works with international organization Project HOPE to secure the protective equipment needed by health workers to send to Sierra Leone. “Project HOPE can get the best price on all of the necessary gear, so we partner with them to get the suits, gloves, etc., sent to our colleagues in Freetown, Sierra Leone,” Whelchel explained.

Fishers Rotary Club has been helping fund the drilling of water wells in Sierra Leone and the Ebola outbreak has prompted a request to place

wells closer to hospitals, according to Whelchel.

“Right now we’re also working toward getting 10 to 15 wells drilled and they will go near Ebola treatment centers.”

The public can help with the effort to provide clean water to hospitals by attending the third annual Water is Life Charity Ball on Dec. 6 at Forum Credit Union in Fishers. Tickets can be purchased at fishersrotarywaterislife.org.

“The Ebola work is an outcropping of the well work that we do for Sierra Leone,” said Tom Branum Jr., Fishers Rotary Club member and chairman of the Water is Life project. “Our long-range plan is to continue helping with Ebola and also with the wells that will go near hospitals and medical facilities.”

Added Whelchel, “We’re deeply concerned for our friends in Sierra Leone and want to help them in any way we can.”

Gas line breaks in Fishers

By Holly Demaree • news@currentinfishers.com

On Oct. 15, there was a reported natural gas leak at Fall Creek Road and Spruance Court. The Fishers Dept. of Fire and public safety Emergency Services responded with caution.

Residents in the immediate area were evacuated during the investigation.

Natalie Hedde, manager of corporate communications for Vectren, which is the natural gas provider for the Fishers area, explained the cause of the most recent leak. “It was a 2-inch plastic main that was struck by a third-party contractor who was boring in the area,” she said.

In the past year there have been 18 cut gas lines, according to John Mehling, public information officer for the Fishers Fire Department.

Hedde said there is a rise in gas line locator requests during certain seasons.

“In the spring and fall during the planting seasons, a lot of residential customers are doing landscaping projects and digging on their own property and, of course, construction is happening all year round,” said Hedde. “Sometimes we will see seasonal spikes of cut lines by thirdparty contractors.”

A simple phone call can prevent most of the incidents. Vectren encourages its customers to “Call 811 before you dig” to help avoid unwanted severed gas lines.

“The customer has to call 811 and that goes to

the local One Call Center in the state of Indiana, and they will be able to dispatch out the appropriate underground utilities to come locate (and mark with flags) their lines,” said Hedde.

The Fishers Fire Department also encourages calling 811 before beginning outdoor digging projects. Also, if you ever smell gas, evacuate the area immediately and call 911.

“There is always the risk of an explosion when there is a leak,” said Mehling. “While it rarely occurs, fire department operations always take into account the safety of residents and responders. We prepare for the worst-case scenario in the event the unlikely occurs. In order to prevent a source of ignition, we shut down roads and evacuate buildings. We would rather create a short-term inconvenience than to place people at risk.”

Fishers company helps fight Ebola

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com As stories about Ebola continue to dominate the news, a company in Fishers is quietly doing its part to help contain the spread health of the virus.

DQE, 9910 North by Northeast Blvd., Fishers, has been in business for more than 20 years. The company provides products for emergency responders, health care and government agencies. Those products include decontamination shower systems, personal protective gear and other response products, according to DQE President Tony Baumgartner.

In the case of Ebola, he said DQE provides personal protection garments such as suits, gloves, boots and ensembles related to protecting an individual from an infectious scenario. He added that DQE is the only company in the area that provides such a diversity of products and services. “About 20 percent of our revenue comes from providing consulting services to hospitals on disaster and emergency preparedness protocol,” Baumgartner said.

He that they sell products to hospitals all over the country and that all hospitals in the Indianapolis area have been purchasing products

from his company in recent weeks. DQE has doubled its workforce to 20 full-time employees to keep up with the demand.

“It hasn’t been this big of a surge in business since the weeks immediately following 9-11. I think sales are up 10-fold, 20-fold over last year,” said Baumgartner.

DQE has also shipped products to West Africa, but its current business is with hospitals in the United States that are getting prepared. “Hospitals now are polishing up on their protocols,” Baumgartner said. Baumgartner is very upbeat about the U.S. fighting an Ebola epidemic here.

“The public health resiliency in this country is quite robust.

They are improving all the time,” he said. “I think that this was a wake-up call and I think we’re finding that there’s improvement that can be made at the institutional hospital level. And I think on the federal level some of the major agencies involved in this are better understanding how information can be packaged and dispensed out on the local level.

“But make no mistake, there is no reason for panic here. This is a nation that is quite resilient from a public health standpoint and this is well within our capability to handle.”

Troupe tells holiday tale

By Beth Clark • news@currentinfishers.com

Halloween is still a few days away, but it is never too early to start thinking about the spirit of Christmas. dance The Academy of Dance Arts, a dance studio in Fishers, will present its original holiday dance production “Littlest Angel” for the third year on Dec. 20 and 21 at Butler University’s Howard L. Schrott Center for the Arts. ADA hopes that “Littlest Angel” will become a holiday tradition for central Indiana families.

The story of “The Littlest Angel” by author Charles Tazewell was originally conceived as a radio script in 1939, published in book form in 1946 and later adapted as a TV musical.

Tazewell’s “The Littlest Angel” is the tale of a young angel in heaven, homesick for earth, who finds peace and comfort by giving a gift to the newborn Christ child.

The dance production of “Littlest Angel” was the dream of prima ballerina-turned-instructor and ADA studio founder Sue Van Voorhis. She read Tazewell’s story to her daughters every year at Christmas. Believing the tale was a wonderful addition to the canon of traditional holiday stories like “The Nutcracker,” Van Voorhis envisioned the story told one day through dance.

Rebecca Jones, formerly of Dance Kaleidoscope, adapted Tazewell’s story for the stage and she and Julie Van Voorhis Meyer choreographed the performance to fulfill Van Voorhis’

dream. “‘Littlest Angel’ is a great chance for children to see a ballet during the holidays that is about Christmas,” said Jones. “We hope families will join us to share in the beauty of dance and the holiday spirit with our dancers.”

Breaking stereotypes for rescues

Stray and rescued animals are still struggling to find homes because of misconceptions and lack of knowledge. Fishers resident Ashley Larsen hopes to break some of animals these stereotypes.

“I kind of feel like we are behind in time because we are still hesitant to invite them [rescue animals] into our home,” said Larsen. “There are dog parks in Hamilton County that do not allow pit bull type breeds.”

Larsen has been a part of the animal rescue world for seven years.

Larsen said she believes many animals that are being euthanized are savable, but there are not enough resources, space and positive thinking to help these animals find their forever home.

“There are so many people who go out and buy animals every day,” said Larsen. “I think it is all about how you market it. How are you going to get someone to think, ‘I want to go to the animal shelter to adopt instead of going to a pet store?’”

Larsen and a friend recently saved two dogs from a rural shelter in Monroe County, Ga. Both dogs, Rudy and Froto, were given 24 hours to live. After some work and love Rudy, and Froto proved to be great dogs. Froto has found a home but Rudy has not.

Larsen acknowledged that many animals being euthanized are not perfect. Many may have been abused and/or abandoned, so they need some

Rudy, a rescued dog, is still looking for a home.

extra care or help before becoming adoptable.

“Nobody is going to go to the shelter and adopt a dog that is timid and cowering in the back of its cage,” said Larsen.

She would like to find a way to help those animals who need a little extra work. It may mean they need a trainer or to receive medical care.

But these are the types of changes that Larsen said she believes need to be made to save the animals that are being euthanized.

“I think a lot of our shelters chose not to work with the community and instead maybe put the blame on the community,” said Larsen.

“But I think it is a lack of education. Why aren’t we going out into the community and talking to people? There are people who want to be good pet owners but just don’t know how and we need to give them the opportunity.”

Collaborative divorce is a way to effectively and efficiently move a couple through the divorce process while maintaining a high level of dignity and respect – in even the most contentious cases.

Time. In litigation cases, divorce cases take several months or even a few years; however, in collaborative cases, the parties schedule their meetings at times that suit their schedules. They produce documents and records, and respond to inquiries informally during 4-way meetings (parties and counsel) with open dialogue. There are no time restraints, and the parties are free to work through the dissolution or post-dissolution issues on their timetable.

A view of the whole picture. In a litigation-track divorce, parties work independently of one another, and his/her case is developed from information that a client knows or has specifically requested from the other party. This process often takes several months. In collaborative cases, the parties meet in 4-way meetings, with open dialogue and free exchange of necessary documentation and information. This process significantly saves time and attorney fees.

Command your own destiny. Whether the litigation case is tried in court or resolved via mediation, the destiny of the divorcing couple is in the hands of the judge, attorney, or, potentially, the mediator. In collaborative cases, however, parties begin 4-way meetings right away and decisions can be made during the process after presentation of and collaboration on the facts and

issues. The collaborative process allows the parties to have a say in their future and the future of their children from the very beginning of the divorce process.

Maintain respect and civility. Parents who are divorced are forever linked to the ex-spouse. They will see each other at times such as sporting events, graduations, weddings and grandchildren’s birthday parties. Parents who are respectful and civil are often welcomed by the children at these events, while parents who are bitter and angry are not. The collaborative process is multi-disciplinary team approach which is designed to help the couple move through the process efficiently.

The collaborative team of professionals works with the couple to assist them in making good decisions about custody, parenting time and division of debts and assets. In addition to the “here and now issues,” the collaborative team develops communication techniques and “rules of the game,” that will help the couple and children move successfully into the next season of their lives.

Save money. Last, but certainly not least, is the savings of attorney fees and litigation costs. Collaborative practice typically costs 30% less than traditional divorce. Collaborative divorce is a viable, cost-savings, effective, and efficient way to move forward to a new beginning.

Expo has large turnout

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com In 2013, the Fishers Chamber of Commerce wasn’t sure what to expect when it hosted the first Business Expo and Food business Forum. The turnout from both the public and businesses was larger than anticipated.

Year two did not disappoint with 88 businesses, including many restaurants, showcasing their food and products. Dan Canan, president

of the Fishers Chamber of Commerce, called the 2014 forum a success.

“The purpose of the Business Expo and Food Forum is to create an environment where Fishers Chamber member businesses and consumer come together and this second year did not disappoint,” Canan said. “We appreciate the 88 local businesses who shared their products and services with more than 500 visitors at the event.”

The Business Expo was held at the Forum Credit Union Conference Center.

Do your duty by voting

Commentary by Larry Lannan

It all started with a referendum campaign in 2012 and, next week, Fishers will be electing a city council.

The referendum vote two plain talk years ago resulted in Fishers becoming a traditional Indiana city with a strong mayor’s office. State law required Fishers to hold its first city election in 2014, with those elected office-holders serving only one year. In 2015, Fishers will hold another city election for the formal four-year terms.

We know the name of Fishers’ first mayor, current Town Manager Scott Fadness. He won the Republican mayoral primary election in May and faces no opposition in the general election.

Of the nine city council seats up for grabs, three at-large (running in the entire city) and six running only within their own districts, there are four races with Democrat candidates.

There is one Democrat candidate for at-large city council and three contested district races.

Even though we know the names of the first mayor, city clerk (Jennifer Kehl) and five council members who are all unopposed in the election, there will be four contested city council seats, including the at-large election where the entire city votes.

That means everyone in the new city of Fishers has at least one contested city council race.

There is a reason for you to vote.

ScoutS do Stuff.

they Build thingS. PlAy with PurPoSe. MAke friendS And work together.

These life changing experiences-and the confidence they provide- become bricks that eventually form a foundation. One a Scout can stand on to embrace opportunity and overcome obstacles.

For the parents watching in awe, it’s not a question of where their Scout will go, but where won’t he go.

I have heard plenty of predictions from people familiar with Indiana elections that this will be a low turnout year. There is no 2014 U.S. Senate race in Indiana. The statewide offices up for election this year (secretary of state, treasurer and auditor) are generally low-profile offices.

Here in Fishers, there is no excuse for people to stay away from the polls. You need to vote.

Voters overwhelmingly passed the 2012 referendum transforming Fishers from a town to a city. That was a presidential election year when voter turnout is traditionally higher.

Those of you voting in favor of a city for Fishers (and there were lots of you based on the 2012 referendum results) should step up and take the next step. Vote for those you want serving on Fishers’ first city council.

I have had the honor of speaking with all the candidates in contested city council races. They are all dedicated, sincere people, offering their time and effort to serve you on the city council.

They are campaigning in the community, doing their part. Will you do your part and vote?

Teaching sportsmanship is key Commentary by Heather Kestian

My oldest loves soccer. Thankfully, we can find the English Premier League on television, which he thinks is beyond awesome. plain talk He practices what he sees on television in the living room and outside, which is a combination of cool and nerve-wracking.

He plays on a team with other first-graders and there are no goalies at this age. Unless, of course, someone plants a kid just outside of the arch around the goal and calls it defense.

Some overheard comments, “why is that kid just standing there?” After the first break away, it became clear why he was standing there.

After a few times of the kids getting frustrated that they could not score, a parent mentioned a well-timed “hey, I thought we couldn’t have goalies?” right as the coach passed by.

Nothing changed and more kids became visibly frustrated.

“This isn’t fun,” said one of the kids.

We ended up getting one goal. Exactly One. After that one goal, he ran back and said “that was really hard!” Usually, each kid gets a chance to score or be part of the team that gets a goal.

You can feel the accomplishment as they jump up and down and high five each other and their

coach. Sometimes, it brings me to tears. This is where they are learning about teamwork and sportsmanship. It is inspiring.

When we got to the car, my kid asked me why they had a goalie and we didn’t. I told him it was all about perspective. Sometimes, people can look at something and see two different things.

We saw a goalie, they saw someone on defense, waiting for the ball to get near the goal so they could kick it away. See, perspective?

“Why didn’t our coach change? We could have had someone on defense.” The following ensued: Me: Did you see this as defense? Kid: No, he seemed like a goalie to me. Me: Are we supposed to have goalies? Kid: No. Me: Why would we do something if we think we shouldn’t? Kid: To win?

It isn’t about winning. We always do the right thing, even if it isn’t popular, even if it means you feel like you have lost. You never lose when you do the right thing. Got it? Kid: “Then why don’t people always do the right thing?” The answer to that question requires more space than I have here.

By Beth Taylor • news@currentinfishers.com Displaying strength and fortitude beyond her 17 years, Lauren Badua is intent on keeping her senior year of high school “normal” as she bravely battles cancer for the second cover story time.

“We want Lauren to keep doing all the things she would be doing to enjoy her senior year,” said her mother, Heather Badua.

Last year, during her junior year at Fishers High School, Lauren’s fight began. Doctors discovered a cancerous tumor pushing against her heart and lungs. Within days of her initial diagnosis of stage 2 Hodgkin’s lymphoma, Lauren started chemotherapy.

As she endured chemo, she was given a choice. Either she could be homeschooled or she could return to high school, wearing a mask to help protect against illnesses that could further deplete a chemo-weakened immune system. Characteristically, she chose to return to school. Her classmates carried her backpack and books. As expected, she maintained her place on the academic honor roll.

Lauren credits her faith in God and the love and the support of family and friends for keeping her spirits up. “I believe that God gives those with the strongest shoulders the toughest battles,” she said.

Lauren was declared cancer free in the spring, but at a checkup a few weeks ago, a nodule was found in her lung. The cancer had returned. “She had the nodule removed as well as part of the middle lobe of her lung and is continuing to receive chemo,” Heather said.

Lauren attends classes and participates in as many activities as she can. Like her classmates, she’s taking college entrance exams and deciding on a major. She’s also gearing up for Fishers High School’s wrestling season. She looks forward to her role as team manager.

“I just keep score and help the coaches. I don’t have to do laundry or anything like that,” explained Lauren.

Lauren works hard to keep up with her classwork. “I like science classes best. Pre-calculus is not my favorite!” said Lauren.

She plans to major in nursing, saying. “I’ve been inspired by the nurses who have helped me. I’d like to do pediatric oncology nursing.”

She enjoys spending time with her friends and family, especially her 7-year-old sister, Elizabeth, with whom she is especially close.

“My little sister is my biggest supporter,” said Lauren. During her treatment at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital, she and Elizabeth often watched Disney movies from Lauren’s bed.

As her treatment continues, the financial costs are increasing.

The outpouring of support from the community has been tremendous. Lauren’s family initially felt uncomfortable accepting help.

“I’ve been used to helping, not being helped,” explained Heather.

“I’m just so thankful that so many people care about Lauren.”

A recent event was held on Oct. 25. Lauren’s friend, Sylvia Peshel, and her mother, Ann Peshel, hosted the Badua Bash fundraiser at their home. “I envisioned it as a fun bonfire for the students and families,” said Ann Peshel. The event featured live music, food trucks and a blood drive.

“I didn’t think twice. I knew that I was supposed to host this event to raise money for Lauren and her family. I’m so inspired by Lauren, she is an incredible young lady,” Ann said.

Heather credits the staff at Fishers High School with helping keep Lauren focused on her future. “Everyone at Fishers High School has been wonderful; the teachers, nurses and all her friends,” Heather said. “There’s just no better place for her to be.

Everyone is helping her to do what she wants, which is to stay caught up with her classwork.”

Lauren’s chemotherapy is continuing. In December, Lauren will have a stem cell transplant, also known as a bone marrow transplant. “She was a little down about being in the hospital over Christmas and having visitor restrictions given the time of year (flu season), but she understands it’s for her health.” Heather said.

As Lauren’s caregiver, Heather also finds comfort and strength in her belief that God is in control and has a plan for Lauren’s life.

“It’s hard for me to be sad when I see how Lauren is handling

everything,” Heather said. “She’s faith-filled and positive. And she’s determined to not let cancer define her.”

The bone marrow transplant will harvest Lauren’s own stem cells. “Luckily, this is more successful than having to use a donor,” said Heather.

Lauren and Heather take each day as it comes.

“I trust in God and I focus on each day’s blessings,” said Heather. “I used to be concerned that I didn’t plan things well enough ahead of time. Now I see that (flaw) as a strength, because I do just take things as they come.”

Hodgkin’s lymphoma facts: Most commonly strikes ages 15-40 More often diagnosed in men Most cases found in United States, Canada, and northern Europe About 9,190 new cases reported in 2014 Survival rate: More than 90 percent in some cases

Can’t we all just get along?

FR O M T H E BACKSHOP 8 years! Current wins with people Well, we did it! We attained our eighth anniversary as a company on Oct. 24. However, in no way did we do it alone. Now in our ninth year of publishing community-focused newspapers, we couldn’t have done it without you, our advertising partners, our internal and external colleagues and the outside vendors that make printing and delivery of “the weekly miracle” possible. The point is, you win with people – and this is a great example of that maxim. Our growth since 2006 has been fueled steadily – even through the recession – by those good folks and entities. We’ve written in this space a few times in the last eight years that we feel truly fortunate to be able to do what we love and love what we do. That has not changed. Is every single day a bed of roses? No, it most certainly is not. Most are, though. Still, with as many moving parts as we have here – not unlike so many households and businesses in our midst – “things break.”

And so we work quickly to correct and not repeat the errors of our ways. That won’t change. What will change, though, is this, if plans remain as they are: Current Publishing will be growing well beyond its first-quarter 2015 launch of Current in Geist and we’ll be able to tell you the details of future expansion, we hope, in the not-too-distant future. So that fuels us, too. In a time when most make note of the declining newspaper industry, we’re humble and happy to state here that such does not apply to Current. We serve a niche and a vast and coveted audience. We provide our readers what they told us, through independent research, that they expect. Our readers linger with the newspapers and, eventually, a buying decision is initiated, and that means our readers frequent our advertisers.

Again, you are the people with whom we win and, humbly, you are genuinely appreciated.

••• On Nov. 1, our editions carrying election-day information will be delivered. We hope you’ll study them and will commit to voting on Nov. 4.

Commentary by Danielle WIlson

The good new days Commentary by Terry Anker Long-ago, rock concerts joined the prohibited list. Trying to squeeze a few more bucks out of the monthly budget, we had kids who would soon enough need money for college, for trips, and for all manner and sort of athletic-logoed apparel. Besides, I told myself, I’d seen most of the greats; and the prices for tickets had inflated to the point where one struggled to justify.

As the years passed, the budget became a little more comfortable and the college fund fattened. But somehow, rock concerts did not find the way back to front-of-mind. Instead, we were more often attending performances from the American songbook – Tony Bennett, Michael Feinstein, Diana Krall and others filled our entertainment allotment.

But as often happens when we allow our lives to slide into cruise control, someone reminds us to take back the wheel. News of Fleetwood Mac’s reunion and tour had reached me some months earlier. The venerable band would even find its way to Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Tickets

were pricy. And, I can be kind of tight. But, then came the call. Good friends found themselves with a “spare” set of seats – perfectly situated for my bride and me. They invited us to join them and insisted that it be their treat. Understandably, I could not have been happier to get the call and was delighted in their generosity as we’d seen the band on its last all-original tour 16 years ago.

The concert beat even the highest expectations. The 60-plus-year-old rockers entertained us for three hours non-stop. The crowd, while fully engaged, was notably older. Even as the experience returned me to another place and time, it was a sanguine reminder that those days are past. Good. They were good days. But I wonder, do we need a new band to make new good days?

Q U O T E O F T H E W E E K Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

– Thomas Edison

I have had it up to the top of my ginger head with mean people! Last week in particular, I saw more than my fair share.

One of my daughter’s besties picked a fight with her, jealous over the amount of time she’d been spending with another classmate.

A man completely went off on me in the parking lot of my kids’ middle school, angry that I hadn’t seen his turn signal. And some old biddy was unhelpful to the point of being obstructive to a friend of mine who was just trying to apply for a job. Can’t we all just get along?

My daughter’s gal pal I can somewhat excuse. She’s at that age where friendships are both sacred and flighty, and girl drama rules the school. Insecurities, immaturity and even the lunch menu can create intense situations that no one under 20 can be expected to handle gracefully. It doesn’t help that my child is Miss Sensitive, so the idea that somebody is mad at her, however irrational the reason, sends her into hysterics, which I’m then supposed to “handle.” No can do, Mom out!

The guy at the school I just don’t get at all.

I was in a long line of traffic trying to drop my son off and honestly never saw his signal indicating his intention to park in a spot he’d already missed. When he started to reverse, I honked. I didn’t want him to hit me and I felt like I couldn’t move. He kept on coming, so naturally I continued to honk. He then rolled down his window and screamed me the riot act. Now maybe I was the spoiled icing on his terrible-day cake, but he didn’t have to behave that way. A patient, “I’m so sorry, but could you please back up?” would have inspired my own brand of kindness. Instead, I was forced to discover his true identity through Ninja-like stalking and file it under “Jerks.”

The next morning, a friend of mine relayed her own mean-people story. While requesting her academic transcripts for a job application, the bitter spinster in charge outright refused to forward them because she thought the place of employment wouldn’t be interested in someone who didn’t have the “right qualifications.” What the what! Obviously something is dead inside that terrible woman, but why on earth would she treat a person like that?

Where’s the love?

Listen. With the frantic holidays around the corner, let’s just try to be nice to each other.

If nothing else, showing compassion will keep you from being tracked by a creative soccer mom with melodramatic tweenagers and frustrated, unemployed allies. Love you guys!

Peace out.

Cool Creek Park trails get haunted for holiday

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

The haunted trails

The usual tranquil wooded area of Cool Creek Parks will turn into a horror scene complete with zombies and chainsaw halloween wielding masked men for the annual Halloweenthemed Haunted Trails Oct. 28 through 30.

Haunted Trails features guided group tours through several different ghoul- and ghostthemed fright stations along the park’s trails and paths for thrill seekers older than 12.

“It takes an army of parks staff and volunteers to stage this thing. Everybody loves the number of hours they put into this thing,” said Don Nicholls, resource development specialist with Hamilton County Parks and Recreation.

Nicholls said the event is one of the department’s best fundraisers as many fright stations

7 to 10 p.m. Oct. 28 through 30 • Cool Creek Park, 2000 E. 151st St., Westfield • Cost is $5 • www.myhamiltoncountyparks.com.

are manned by high school students.

“Band students, key clubs and thespians can earn as much as $2,000 for their organizations,” he said. “It’s a good opportunity for youth groups.”

Nicholls said this year’s event will include 13 to 15 fright stations. He said staff members keep an eye on groups on the trails, especially those that seem to know it all.

“Teens that can’t be impressed, those are the ones we target. We know we’ve done our job when we quiet down those groups,” Nicholls said.

Northern Lights will provide stage entertain-

ment, music for guests standing in line, hay rides, a camp fire and storytelling.

For younger children, Nicholls said a Trick-orTreat Trail is available from 6 to 9 p.m. He said the area is now committed to children and away from the Haunted Trails.

“It’s a fright-free zone,” Nicholls said. “In the past, we had a place that the Haunted Trail dumped out to. It didn’t seem right to have children being there.”

The Trick-or-Treat Trail activities include craft stations, a Not-so-scary Nature Trail, Spooktacular shelter, live owls with a wildlife educator, Monster Mash dance area and marshmallows at the campfire ring. Cost is $1 and is designed for preschool and elementary-aged school children and their families.

“There are lots of fun, different activities at multiple stations,” Nicholls said.

2nd Pumpkin Harvest Festival – Stonycreek Farm, 11366 Ind. 38 East, is hosting its annual festival from 10 a.m.

NOBLESVILLE to 5 p.m. now through Oct. 31. The event’s 400-foot zip line is returning as a main attraction. Cost is $15 per person for anyone ages 10 and up who weigh 90 to 250 pounds.

Other attractions include a pony cart, 60-foot. slide, entertainment area, hayrides to the pumpkin patch, a haunted house for youngsters, a gourd sling shot, corn cob cannon, candle making, farm animals and more. Parking is $5 per car. For more information, call 773-3344 or visit www.stonycreekfarm.net.

Haunted Trails – Make your way through the “boo-tiful” woods of Cool Creek Park, 2000 E. 151st St., during the annual WESTFIELD Haunted Trails Halloween event from 7 to 10 p.m.

Oct. 28 through 30. Ghouls and goblins are lurking at every turn and waiting for you to arrive.

Tailgating in cold weather

Tailgating by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley

So the 10-day forecast is for cold weather on game day. Don’t lose heart; here are some hints to make your tailgate party bearable.

Dress for success – wear layers of clothes that breathe.

Wool, cotton and even some of those newly designed materials that you can’t pronounce will work.

Stay out of the wind – set up on the lea side of your vehicle or attach a wind screen to protect you with a trap, bungee cords and weights.

Have a heat source – God gives us the sun so use it by setting up so your chairs are in the sunshine. If there’s no sun, set up your grill and stoves on the lea side of your windbreak and use them for warmth. A boiling pot of soup throws off a lot of heat.

Here is a great cold-weather soup using our favorite health food, sausage.

Italian Wedding Soup Ingredients: Tiny meatballs: 1 package (19 ounce) JOHNSONVILLE mild or sweet Italian Sausage, 1 egg, lightly beaten, 1 cup Italian bread crumbs, 2 teaspoons fennel seeds, crushed or chopped, 1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, minced, 1/2 teaspoon Frank’s ®RedHot® cayenne pepper sauce (optional).

Soup: 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 1 medium onion, finely diced, 1 teaspoon dried or fresh thyme, 1 teaspoon dried sage leaves, 2 cloves garlic, finely minced, 1 medium carrot, finely chopped, 1 stalk celery, finely chopped, 8 cups chicken stock, 1 bay leaf, 8 ounces orzo pasta, cooked, 1 cup spinach, roughly chopped, 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded Directions: 1. Mix meatball ingredients together and roll small meatballs the size of a marble. (If forming the meatball is difficult, cover and refrigerate first.)

2. In a medium pan, cook orzo al dente, according to package directions, drain and

set aside.

3. Prep the vegetables.

4. In a large pot, sauté onion, thyme and sage in olive oil. When the onion starts to turn a golden color, add garlic, carrot and celery, and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. Set the vegetable mixture aside on a plate.

6. In the same pot, add all the meatballs and cook for 2 to 3 minutes before stirring.

(This will keep them from breaking). Gently toss with a rubber spatula to brown on all sides.

7. Add reserved vegetables, chicken stock and bay leaf. Simmer gently (do not boil), until vegetables are tender and meatballs are cooked through.

8. Add cooked orzo and spinach, stir together.

(Adding spinach right before serving will help it maintain its rich green color).

9. Garnish bowls/cups with parmesan cheese.

Regan, Johnson win Halloween Writing Contest Youth winner – Corinne Regan, 11, of Noblesville I hate all of this superstition around Halloween. That weird stuff like, if you see a black cat, you’re going to die. But that’s just crazy. Well, at least I used to think that.

Everything went insane on Halloween, as I was waiting for my bus. My friend, Jeffrey, came running to me, his hair bouncing as he ran. I looked at him and rolled my eyes. I was tired of Jeffrey, because the only thing that he didn’t believe in was ghosts.

Jeffrey kept sprinting toward me, tripping over his own feet. He finally reached me, looking like he was about to puke up a lung. “I saw a ghost.” he gasped.

This really surprised me, because Jeffrey doesn’t believe in ghosts. “What do you mean you saw a ghost? Who was it?” I asked. I wanted to know exactly what happened.

“Well,” Jeffrey mumbled, “I think it was the man, from my house. He looked right at me. I swear, I wasn’t just seeing things.”

In Jeffrey’s house, apparently, a murderer once lived in his house but he died a long time ago.

I looked Jeffrey in the eye and saw that the whites of his eyes had turned blood red. I backed away, barely breathing. His face was completely expressionless. His pupils and iris

disappeared, leaving only crimson.

“Are you scared?” he asked in a deep, rough voice, that wasn’t even his.

I gagged, backing even farther away from him.

Suddenly, he shot out his right arm and squeezed my neck. With incredible strength, he lifted me off the ground. I gripped his hand, trying to pry it off. He thrust me on the ground, and stood over me. I closed my eyes, waiting for Jeffrey to kill me.

I slowly opened my eyes, and his eyes weren’t red anymore. He was normal again. I pulled myself up and looked closely at Jeffrey.

His eyes didn’t show any unusual red, and his pupils were back. I spun around on my heel, as the bus turned the corner and was almost to us. I felt a hand on my back and I plunged toward the bus. I looked around, for a second, and saw Jeffrey and his red eyes standing over me, laughing. Then my head smashed against the pavement.

I slowly opened my eyes, to see an empty bag of Halloween candy and a mountain of hundreds of candy wrappers. I breathed deeply and realized that it was just a dream. I never was actually pushed in front of the bus. I had passed out because of all of the candy I ate. It was just a dream. It was just a dream. Or was it?

‘Golda’s Balcony’ now on stage news@currentnoblesville.com Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre in Carmel is pleased to present Broadway’s longest running one-woman show, “Golda’s Balcony,” as this season’s second production. The theater show is running now until Nov. 8.

Indianapolis actress Miki Mathioudakis will take the stage as Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir for the second time in her stage career. “From my prior experience, I hope to bring a well-rounded understanding of Jewish traditions and the situation in the Middle East to the role,” Mathioudakis stated in an e-mail to Current. “Being an ordained minister in the Christian Church, I have observed similarities in the Jewish faith that are helping me relate to Golda Meir and her religion.”

William Gibson’s “Golda’s Balcony” follows the life of Meir from her impoverished childhood in Russia to her time as the fourth prime minister of Israel. The play examines Meir’s personal and public life and provides intimate insight into the power, strength and idealism which caused many to regard her as a legendary world leader during a time of great conflict.

“In relation to recent events in Israel, this story is a reminder that war is without end,” Mathioudakis said. “‘Golda’s Balcony’ shows that war is not a one-sided story, and it strengthens the notion that everybody, regardless of their nationality, just wants a place to call their own.”

Miki Mathioudakis performs as Golda Meir. (Submitted photo)

Sixty minutes of activity for kids Commentary by Kathleen Connelly For some reason every year, fall creeps up on me. I love fall but the other week when it was gloomy, gray and rainy, I thought fitness to myself, not yet! Of course this happened to be the same day the Hamilton Southeastern schools had a half day.

What to do with the kids?

The first thought on a rainy day might be a trip to the movie theater. However, kids sit most of the day at school, so why not get them up and active. If you don’t want to go dancing in the rain, then find an indoor activity that can get the kids their recommended 60 minutes of active play per day.

Try Sky Zone in Fishers. It is a trampoline playground that is high energy for any age. What about a bounce house? There are plenty in Fishers, Carmel and Noblesville. Did you know that Recreation Unlimited has a program called Pay to Play? You can pay $8 per child (8 years old or younger) and your kids can play as long as they like during regular business hours. Your kids and you can run around for hours playing basketball, jumping on trampolines or playing on the 15 play sets that are set up.

I realize not every day off of school can be an outing, so why not create some at-home active play for everyone. Use jump ropes, chairs, blankets, cones, small balls and anything else you can think of and create an obstacle course.

Have your kids take turns completing and time each one of them. If you want less of a mess to clean up afterward, maybe a game of Simon Says. It is amazing how many times you can get kids to jump, stretch, kick, pull and run in place while playing this game. What about a good old fashioned scavenger hunt?

Make a list of items appropriate for your kids’ ages and send your kids off all over the house.

Any of these at home ideas will keep the kids off the couch and will be tons of fun for Mom and Dad, too.

The next half day of school for my kids is not until January, but I am going to be ready.

Whether you want to take your kids out or stay at home, find a fun way to get them active!

IU Health initiatives benefit community news@currentnoblesville.com In 2013, nearly half a million patients in Indiana received free or reduced-cost care from Indiana University Health. Beyond giving back the $308 million provided in charity care, IU Health also brought health care into the community by investing nearly $32 million in community health initiatives, reaching nearly a million people through health screenings and health education programs.

Throughout the year, IU Health Saxony Hospital supported many local organizations including the Southeastern Program of Recreational Team Sports (S.P.O.R.T.S.) in Fishers. The hospital provided hundreds of first-aid kits for the organization’s youth sports teams.

Berkshire Hathaway in Fishers

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com New “for sale” signs are going up around Fishers now that the Prudential Realty office has become a Berkshire Hathareal estate way Home Services Indiana Realty office. The new office at 8402 E. 116th St. had an official ribbon cutting Oct. 7 as part of a rollout statewide of the new Berkshire Hathaway offices.

Berkshire Hathaway, famous for its CEO Warren Buffett, bought out Prudential Realty and is changing Prudential offices across the nation to Berkshire Hathaway Home Services offices.

Julie Catton, sales manager and managing broker of the Fishers office, said her office is excited about the change. “We are so proud to be carrying that name in yards. We feel like we are taking this to the next level. We are calling it

the revolution in real estate. We’ve got awesome tools for the support of marketing and selling homes and also for marketing our agents. We have very user-friendly searches on our website that consumers can use to search our homes and then contact our agents through that.”

Catton said her group’s advantage is its people.

“Agents in Fishers are very Fishers-oriented. They live here, they play here, they work here, they go to school here. Our agents are incredibly up to date with all of the current tools and technology.

They are so familiar with the area and they are on top of it. The advantage that the company has over other companies is the technology, our tools and our platform for innovative marketing.”

Berkshire Hathaway got into the real estate industry a year ago and is now in 48 states and has a global presence. The Fishers office has 30 agents.

Fire and Emergency Panic Alert

Athens Agora, with Mars Hill on the Right. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Gods and politics in Athens Agora Commentary by Don Knebel The colonnaded Parthenon atop the flat hill of the Athenian Acropolis is one of the most recognizable structures in the world, Travel epitomizing Classical architecture.

But the buildings below the Acropolis were more important to the history of both democracy and Christianity.

As early as the seventh century B.C., the lower area northwest of the Acropolis was cleared of houses and reserved for use as an agora (marketplace). After the Greeks defeated the Persians in 480 B.C., Athens became the most important city in Greece and the agora became the center of Athenian life. The agora included buildings where citizens enacted legislation and served as jurors in law cases. It also included temples and monuments to Athens’ pantheon of gods and goddesses, including Apollo, Hephaestus and Aphrodite. The so-called “Altar of the Twelve Gods” established the point from which all distances in Athens were measured. A stone inscription referenced an “unknown god,” reportedly responsible for a devastating plague. West of the Acropolis a marble outcropping known as Mars Hill held the Areopagus, an institution performing various governmental functions over time.

When the Romans conquered Athens in about 88 B.C., they largely retained the buildings and temples of the agora. In the first century, people gathered in the Areopagus to discuss philosophical and political matters. According to the Book of Acts, when Paul visited Athens in about 51 A.D., he was distressed by all the idols he saw being worshipped in the temples. After seeking to make followers of Jesus among people walking about the agora, Paul debated Athenian intellectuals in the Areopagus. He argued that the transcendent God of the Jews was the “unknown god” they had been seeking. A few influential Athenians reportedly accepted Paul’s argument and became Christians.

The Athens agora has been maintained as a public site and some of its buildings are remarkably well preserved. A plaque at the base of Mars Hill displays the argument Paul made to the Areopagus, reflecting Christianity’s current status as the state religion of Greece. The precise identities of the “Twelve Gods,” once worshipped at the center of Athens, are long forgotten.

From dark basement to upscale entertaining space Commentary by Larry Greene EXISTING BASEMENT: Located on the south side of Indianapolis, this formerly dark basement did not provide blueprint for the atmosphere these improvement entertainment oriented homeowners desired.

While the husband wanted a man-cave feel, they both wanted a space that felt energetic, modern and contemporary. They wanted to entertain, have conversation and relax.

LOUNGE AREA: Due to the lack of natural light, the homeowners concentrated on ways to brighten up the space. Recessed can lights were installed in the ceiling and a large mini-chandelier was installed to brighten the space and add to the contemporary look. The orange walls were painted soft beige. The moldings, stairs, balusters and railing were painted white to match the newly added bookcases.

WET BAR: Once the demolition of the existing brick wall was complete, new cabinetry was installed featuring glass front doors, wine racking and storage for stemware. This allowed them to showcase their favorite liquors and even to house their karaoke equipment and speakers.

The sleek backsplash and bar front wall features Roman beige ledge stone. White Corian countertops in “witch hazel” color were selected to help balance the contrasting colors of the dark cabinetry and light ledge stone.

before & after

RESULT: “Our favorite part of the whole remodel is definitely the wet bar.

We are so ecstatic to have a place to sing karaoke and have fun with our friends and family without ever leaving our home.”

THEATRE ROOM: Located just off of the lounge and wet bar room, this transformed area serves as a gaming center and theatre room. Coordinating with the wet bar, the new gas fireplace surround features the same stone used for the backsplash and bar wall. The matching cabinetry and flanking built-ins provide ample storage for board games and movies. The Kichler multi-light pendant brightens up the space and adds a modern elegance to the room. Stained wainscoting was installed to match the cabinetry in the theatre room and wet bar.
