To our valued readers: We hope you are well and are enjoying the summer!

It seems as though it was years ago when we communicated our revised distribution plan for Fishers, but it was actually only the end of March. Time flies when you’re battling the fallout from the pandemic, we suppose.

Current in Geist remains exposed to the financial repercussions of the pandemic, although we’re proud to state we have

retained all full-time staff at the levels of compensation to which they are accustomed.

As a result, we must extend our revised circulation plan for the time being. We will continue deliver to a different 25 percent of the community, as has been the case since April 7. That means, in a four-week month, a different quadrant of the community each week will receive Current by mail.

In addition, our practice of making the newspapers available in their entirety online ensues and never will change.

expect the remaining sites to open by early October.

Fourteen of the 95 sites are expected to open in central Indiana, including in Hamilton County; however, no new sites are planned in Boone County, which has one testing site at the CVS in Zionsville.

Box said the expansion sites are expected to process between 100 and 200 tests per day, depending on population density and demand. Testing will be free at all expansion sites, Box said.

Preparations for vaccine candidates The CDC released guidance to health officials in all states earlier this month outlining preliminary plans for phased rollout of immunizations if a vaccine becomes available.

According to the guidance, limited quantities of a vaccine might be available as early as November. Of the vaccine candidates under consideration, most will require a second immunization at least 21 or 28 days after an initial immunization.

Initial COVID-19 immunizations will likely be made available to staff and residents at long-term care facilities and the critical workforce “that provides health care and maintains essential functions of society,” according to the guidance.

“We understand that there will probably be somewhere between 10 to 15 million doses to begin with out of 330 million individuals in the U.S., so that amounts to just under 5 percent,” Box said. “As we are looking at it, Indiana is using a team of experts to ethically look at and medically look at those individuals who should receive these immunizations first in the state of Indiana.”

A meeting was scheduled for Sept. 11 for states to learn more about how they will receive vaccines. Box said that the state is waiting for more specific guidance before submitting a vaccination plan.

As of this writing, we can’t predict when “normal” will return, but we’re aching for it to happen much sooner than later.

Thank you for your understanding as we continue to strive to get back to business as usual.

Please let us know if you have questions, and please be well and stay well.

Sincerely, Brian Kelly Steve Greenberg President/ Executive Vice Publisher President/GM

Find community with senior living Commentary by Kara Shipman Loneliness and social isolation can be very damaging, especially for older adults.

Social isolation significantly AGING increases a person’s risk of premature death and is associated with a 50 percent increased risk of dementia. Poor social relationships also are associated with an increased risk of heart disease and stroke as well as higher rates of depression, anxiety and suicide.

Sometimes, it’s hard to pull yourself out of the loneliness you are feeling, especially in today’s world — a world forcing us to distance from each other. But just because we are physically distant doesn’t mean we can’t still find and feel community with others. That’s where CarDon comes in.

Find social engagement Even though we have to stay socially, or physically, distant, being part of a CarDon community like Hamilton Trace still offers the opportunity to stay socially engaged.

Being social doesn’t mean you have to be physically close — because we can’t be right now. But it does mean you have the chance for social engagement … with nurses, dietary associates, the life enrichment team, physical or occupational therapists and even other residents.

From creative activities, to the receipt of cards and love letters from friends and family, the Hamilton Trace staff makes sure residents don’t go through their days alone, and that truly makes all the difference.

Find family At Hamilton Trace, residents are visited each day by staff members, who offer a warm smile, a comforting word and a health and wellness check, both physically and mentally.

The dietary staff provides delicious meals three times a day. And depending on the ever-changing regulations surrounding COVID-19, residents may be able to socially

distance while eating and conversing with other residents in the dining room. But even if the dining room isn’t open, the dietary staff serves up a healthy meal and a large dose of love and care with every visit.

Either way, you’ll get a helping of human interaction with every meal.

Community is shown when team members engage with, provide emotional support to and know each resident by name. Hamilton Trace is a family to go to. To talk. To listen. To smile. To care.

Find peace of mind Human beings were created to be in community with one another. It’s human nature. An essential human need.

And while we may need to stay safe by staying separated, the families of the residents at Hamilton Trace can have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are being fully loved, fully cared for and fully engaged in life within the safety of a place they call home.

Of course, it’s difficult knowing you can’t see your loved one the way you want to.

But the staff at Hamilton Trace is interacting with them and uplifting their spirits, even when you can’t.

In the midst of uncertainty with COVID-19, your loved one is being cared for on a daily basis, and also when more immediate health needs arise. You can rest easy knowing your loved ones aren’t alone. They are together with others who care about them.

Find community Even in tough times such as these, the staff at Hamilton Trace will not let your loved one’s spirit fade. No matter their age, ability or experience, residents are made to feel special, attended to, cared for and loved. And that is how CarDon helps each resident find community.

In the midst of uncertainty with COVID-19, your loved one is being cared for on a daily basis, and also when more immediate health needs arise. You can rest easy knowing your loved ones aren’t alone. They are together with others who care about them.

Getting prompt ER care for a stroke can mean the difference between disability and recovery ERs deliver stroke care, with safety precautions in place When David Wegener couldn’t hold his coffee cup one morning, he knew something wasn’t right. It never occurred to him he might be having a stroke.

in providing advanced imaging and treatments for complex strokes.

This type of highly specialized stroke care is shown to help lead to better recovery for patients.

Fortunately, David decided to go to an ER at an Ascension hospital.

A neurologist looked at his CT scan using specialized software and determined the right treatment within two minutes. David was transferred immediately to a Comprehensive Stroke Center for a procedure that not only saved his life but also prevented long-term damage.

“Timing is critical in treating stroke,” said Daniel Sahlein, MD, Neurointerventionalist. “Delaying care, even by a few minutes, can be the difference between recovery and permanent disability.”

Ascension St. Vincent Hospital is a certified Comprehensive Stroke Center, meeting rigorous standards © Ascension 2020. All rights reserved.

Don’t postpone emergency care for stroke symptoms Emergency rooms across the country are reporting fewer cases of strokes and heart attacks. But these critical events are still happening.

“Our ERs are fully prepared to offer immediate care for the entire family, and are open 24/7 with labs and imaging on-site,” said Jonathan Nalli, Senior Vice President, Ascension, and Ministry Market Executive, Ascension St. Vincent. “And because we’re more than emergency care, we’ll help you schedule follow-up appointments, so it’s one less thing to worry about after you return home.”

Avoiding care can make recovery more difficult. For example, if a patient receives hospital care within three hours of the first symptoms of an ischemic stroke, a clot-busting medication may be given. Patients who receive this medication are more likely to fully recover and avoid suffering long-term disability. Larger strokes can often be treated with a minimally invasive clot extraction procedure, performed only at select hospitals, including Ascension St. Vincent Hospital in Indianapolis.

Recognize the symptoms of stroke The first step in getting treatment for stroke quickly is recognizing the warning signs. These include: sudden loss of balance, lost or unclear vision, face drooping or uneven smile, arm weakness, and speech difficulty.

If you see these signs, call 911 right away.

Strong precautions to protect patients and caregivers Many people have put off care recently because they may have been reluctant to visit a medical facility, with concerns about exposure to coronavirus (COVID-19). Ascension St. Vincent is screening staff and caregivers, providing masks to all who enter its hospitals and ERs, and rigorously cleaning and disinfecting all areas in its facilities.

Ascension is committed to balancing care with caution to help protect all who enter its sites of care.

Even when the need is urgent, Ascension St. Vincent care teams focus on providing compassionate, personalized care at every step.

Talking about the signs and symptoms of a stroke with your family, friends and loved ones, and why it is important to seek ER care quickly, can save lives and help improve recovery.

If you or a loved one is experiencing stroke symptoms such as sudden loss of balance, lost or unclear vision, face drooping or uneven smile, arm weakness, or speech difficulty, go to the nearest emergency room or call 911. Find emergency care at Ascension St. Vincent ER at GetStVincentCare.com

Climb Time Indy offers day passes, which are $18 with gear rental. (Submitted photo)

Climbing gym changes ownership, offers creative activities during pandemic

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com In bouldering, a subset of rock climbing, routes are commonly called “problems,” and Climb Time Indy co-owner Topher Bell sure had a problem on his hands when he and his business partner Tod Utter were forced to close the gym in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bell, of Indianapolis, and Utter, of Noblesville, assumed ownership of the Geist/Fishers area climbing gym when the previous owner, Steve Allen, opted to turnover ownership after owning the gym for 15 years.

Bell and Utter became co-owners in November 2019. A few months later, they had to close the gym. Climb Time Indy, which operates at 25 percent capacity, reopened in June.

Climbers are required to wear face coverings at all times.

Yet, Bell said climbers are well-versed in caution, especially when it comes to climbing.

“The climbing community as a whole tends to be very cautious,” the 2005 Carmel High School graduate said. “I think we face risk frequently enough that we are used to

caution, so we are requiring masks for all entrants as part of that cautious approach to having fun. This is for anybody that does want to get out and get excited and feel the thrill, get a workout in and feel strong in an environment where they don’t feel like they’re going to be exposed unnecessarily to any sort of COVID contaminants. This is a great option.”

Because of the pandemic, Bell and Utter haven’t been able to offer all of the programs they envisioned in the spring. But they expect to be able to do so in the coming weeks and months.

“We are trying to do a theme or an event every single month for our member base, to challenge them to climb harder, climb better and invest in the community more,” Bell said.

The facility shows films, offers yoga and creates challenges where climbers are tasked with climbing a collective 1 mile of routes throughout a month.

VISIT CLIMB TIME INDY Climb Time Indy is at 8750 Corporation Dr., Indianapolis.

It offers memberships for $40 a month. The fee includes events, gear rental and unlimited climbing. There are no start-up or cancellation fees. It also offers day passes for $12 with gear rental of $6. A boulder pass is $10, and shoe rental is $3.

The pandemic caused Climb Time Indy to lose approximately 10 percent of its membership, and the gym also saw a sharp decline in its other offerings, such as day passes.

Moreover, the gym also faces the hurdle in the fact that Indiana isn’t widely regarded as a rock-climbing destination, but Bell said that doesn’t deter him and Utter from introducing new climbers to the sport.

“This is a sport that’s very accessible out West. If you want to be a rock climber in Colorado, that’s the same as telling someone you want to start running here,” Bell said.

“To become a climber or decide you want to try climbing in the state of Indiana takes a lot of courage because it is such a foreign sport for us. So, what Climb Time has always offered, and we want to continue to offer at an even greater scale, is a welcoming environment for everybody who has an interest in climbing.”

Climb Time Indy offers private sessions, kids club training and other activities.

“The gym is trying to invest in the members to help them maximize what they get out of the sport,” Bell said. “To me, Indiana climbing is something that is very special and not like most other places. To look at us, you think we’re not supposed to be rock climbers, and I think that attitude is what helps cultivate such a strong sense of community in this gym and in this state.”

Bell also works at Old Town Design Group in Carmel. For more, visit climbtimeindy.com.

by Sun Tzu, the Chinese general born about 550 years before Christ and best remembered as the author of the classic book of military strategy, “The Art of War.” In the West, the idea was championed by Niccolò Machiavelli, the Italian Renaissance diplomat born about 1,500 years after Christ and best remembered as the author of the classic book of governing strategy, “The Prince.” American President George Washington often used a variation of the concept, as did Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong.

In essence, “the best defense is a good offense.” In politics, law, business, and even board games, a winning strategy is often based on the notion of drawing first blood. Before allowing a would-be opponent to consider her own moves, the aggressor makes hers. By striking first, one gains the advantage of framing the battleground, of reducing the position of the opponent to defend themselves, and by gaining the element of surprise. And once in power, one would be in constant pursuit of out-maneuvering those governed. Each anticipated move by adversaries, or one’s own citizens, should be anticipated and preemptively repressed. Suppressed by fear, most come to live in constant expectation of the unannounced hostility.

But even more, those antagonists have defended themselves from fighting the battle on their own homeland. Stated another way, their own failures and biases are routinely not exposed, expressed or assessed.

The defensively offensive end up reducing vulnerability while the defensively defensive are pushed back against the wall. In an all-out war, maybe all is fair. But what if someone doesn’t intend to go to war? What if the aggressor is just an aggressor and not defending?

Can we coexist with someone bent on a preemptive assault? Or do we have to strike them to survive ourselves?

Let the fantasy games begin!

Commentary by Danielle Wilson Heads up, people. Football season is finally here, and this dance mom actually remembered to log in to a HUMOR Sunday night draft in my allguys-except-for-me fantasy league. Do I know what I’m doing yet? No. I think this is my fifth year and I still only recognize players who have retired (so long, Brady!). Do I understand when to start a WR over a RB? Not exactly, though I’ve been advised to have a total of five entered on my roster. Am I going to let any of this stop me from dominating a bunch of beer-guzzling man-children? Bells to the no! I recognize the incredible responsibility I hold to women everywhere. I promise, I will not fail.

Well, I might. My record has been subpar, at best. Usually, I lose a quarterback in the first month or realize too late that all my good players have the same bye week.

And I truly have minimal knowledge of the

strength and weaknesses of the 30-odd teams in the NFL (but at least I didn’t write NHL!).

I do have an awesome name, though — A Girl Has No Name (“Game of Thrones” fans, you’re welcome!), which is half the battle, along with the help of my stats-fanatic son, who dutifully scans my lineup every Thursday to make sure I didn’t start a defense that’s pitted against my premier offensive minions. I also hold some key advantages: I finished in the bottom half last year and I am female. There are literally no expectations of me winning anything. I can only impress!

So, here’s to a victorious football season.

For me, and women everywhere! Peace out.

Editor, Last month, Gov. Holcomb said that schools implementing virtual education wouldn’t lose funding. Relying on that promise, HSE school leaders worked with health officials and concluded it was safest to start the school year with virtual learning. Administrators and teachers prepared for these changes throughout the summer while our leaders in the Statehouse did nothing to change the current funding. Then, on the first day of classes, school leaders received a letter from our state legislature threatening that HSE schools could lose more than $18 million in funding if they didn’t provide in-person classes.

I want my daughter to go to school and achieve a hands-on learning experience. But, I want her to be safe and healthy. The supermajority’s decision to hold our school’s already scarce funding as a bargaining chip to put students and teachers back in school before it is deemed safe didn’t consider my family or your family’s well-being.

I know our public schools are not represented in the Statehouse. This is one reason why I decided to run as the Democratic candidate for state representative in District 37. I am committed to our teachers and our children.

Mind over blather Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Here are a few observations about life in my house during the last five months.

1. When my wife asks me what I want for dinner, I’m torn between saying: A. I don’t care B. I don’t know C. Whatever!

2. I love watching golf on TV. If Arnold Palmer is leading the tournament, I’m thinking it may be a repeat.

3. When Mary Ellen and I sit outside in the mornings and talk, after about an hour and a half she’ll say, “That’s interesting. I’ve never heard you say that before.” It’s then I realize that for more than 90 minutes, I hadn’t said anything new.

4. When I see couples walking around our neighborhood, sometimes I’ll see a man in shorts and a T-shirt and his wife is bundled up in a winter coat.

Why would a man marry a woman who is always that cold? OK, that sounds sexist. Why would a woman marry a man who is that hot? I’m only making this worse. Never mind.

5. I have no idea what day it is. My brother, Peter, has the best way to keep track. He looks at his weekly pill divider.

6. My wife has a crush on two TV stars. First, Idris Elba. This 6-foot-3, talented actor is a major hunk with a British accent. She also has a thing for Dr. Anthony Fauci. Standing 5-7, he’s a

brilliant immunologist. He is articulate and measured. What do I have in common with either of these men? I was once 5-7.

7. We use Zoom for our church services.

We have several older members in the congregation. When I commented that it felt like “Hollywood Squares,” I was glad a lot of people knew what I was talking about.

8. Health care workers are my No. 1 heroes. Anyone who delivers beer is a close second.

9. I’ve been exercising in the basement. I keep careful track of everything. It’s exactly 53 steps from the furnace room to the couch, another 27 around the treadmill. That takes me 32.6 seconds and it’s precisely .07 miles. Why am I running around my basement when I have a treadmill? Because the machine is covered in winter clothing.

10. My to-do list has nothing on it these days. Now, I have a not-to-do list (don’t go to the movies; don’t get a haircut; don’t go to the YMCA …). The list is long. I’m worried I’ll never get it all not done.

As you can see from that last one, I may be losing my mind.

Video game stock growth — The video game industry is booming. The global video game market is likely to double to $300 billion in revenue by 2025, according to tech research firm GlobalData, driven by the expansion of mobile-phone and online gaming. Also, there has been tremendous growth in games played by multiple players over the Internet, such as Fortnite, in which 100 players fight against one another for survival. And rather than buying individual games in stores such as GameStop, players are paying fees for monthly subscriptions to online services that allow them to stream or download games. Two subscription services, Apple Arcade and Google Stadia, were launched last year, but they’ve had lukewarm results, partly because of competition from free online video game providers such as Epic Games, the

privately. Epic made more than a billion dollars in 2019 by selling optional virtual accessories such as character outfits. Investors should focus on third-party video game publishers with a history of churning out blockbuster games for consoles, PCs and mobile devices. Their stocks can benefit no matter what platform gamers choose to play on or what business model prevails. Two attractive video game publishers now are: • Activision Blizzard (ATVI) hits include World of Warcraft, which has had $9 billion in revenue since 2004. It partners with YouTube to stream live broadcasts of tournaments for games such as Overwatch and Call of Duty.

• Electronic Arts (EA) makes best-selling games such as the FIFA soccer series, Madden

L – Lead by example. Let your child see you wearing a mask and modeling good social distancing.

A – Avoid large gatherings. Slumber parties, carpools and birthday parties are discouraged.

S – Schedule a test if you or someone in your family exhibits signs of COVID-19.

S – Stay home until you receive your test results or if you are not feeling well.

The health department has been tracking a significant

spike in COVID-19 cases among children – especially teens – since July 4. According to the Indiana State Dept. of Health, children ages 0-19 accounted for just 5 percent of the positive cases on July 4. That percentage more than tripled to 18.5 percent of new cases the week of Aug. 31. The surge is believed to be due in large part to social gatherings like graduations, weddings and family reunions.

Husband/wife team take on challenge of Ibsen’s ‘Hedda Gabler’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Brandi Davis is still trying to grasp the essence of her character.

Davis plays the title role THEATER in the production of Henrik Ibsen’s “Hedda Gabler” at Westfield Playhouse Sept. 24 to Oct. 4.

“Everything about the role is challenging,” said Davis, an Elwood resident. “Hedda is a very complex character, so trying to peel away all the layers and figure out who Hedda is, is extremely difficult. We’re about three weeks into rehearsal and I’ve played the character different every single night and still haven’t settled on anything.”

Gabler is the daughter of an aristocrat who married an aspiring professor even though she doesn’t love him. The play is directed by Davis’ husband, Adam Davis, who is directing at Westfield Playhouse for the first time.

“This has been a show I’ve wanted to do for a long time,” Adam Davis said. “It came across my plate 15 years ago to read this. I was just hooked immediately by the characters and how real they are. Ibsen doesn’t write characters. He writes people into situations. Every time I read it, and I’ve probably read it 100 times in the last 15 years, I find something new or a connection between the characters. The cast is super talented. I was really fortunate with who I was able to cast in the show.”

Westfield resident Alex Dantin plays George Tesman, who is Hedda’s husband.

“It’s a very challenging role because it’s a translated play from (Danish),” Dantin said. “It’s from the late 1880s, so it has a very different tone to it, which makes it difficult to learn all the lines correctly and the way they are meant to be said. I’ve been working on trying to get the lines down and the pattern down.”

Dantin, 43, returned to acting after a 20year absence when he performed in “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance” at Westfield Playhouse in September 2019.

“I missed (acting),” Dantin said. “I was looking for something to do during the colder months. I saw Westfield had a thriving community for action and decided to jump back in.”

Steven Marsh, a Carmel resident who has dual roles of producer and cast member (he plays Judge Brack), said the character study and interaction are fascinating.

“It seems like you think you know where the show is going and then it swerves and becomes this character piece where people start ping-ponging off each other,” Marsh said. “I love it when you are surprised by something, even if in hindsight it all makes sense.”

Noblesville High School senior Rosie Allenson is the assistant director.

“This is my assistant directorial debut,” Allenson said. “It is a bit daunting to do it with an adult play, but it makes it that much more exciting. I’ve worked with a couple of these actors before and they are all stunning on stage.”

Allenson read the script before the cast was finalized.

“I read it three times before the start of rehearsals,” Allenson said. “I fell in love with the author’s style of writing. Adam warned me the first time you’ll get the plot and nothing else. The second time you’ll make connections and the third time it will click. It was exactly like that. He has a particular style of writing where you have to dissect to understand certain connections.

Once you understand them, it’s a completely different story. I enjoyed reading it and seeing it on stage.”

Allenson said her role is mostly technical.

“I make sure the blocking doesn’t look awkward on stage and I help with the characterization as well, which I really enjoy,” she said.

Audience capacity will be limited to 25 percent, or approximately 40 people, for each of the eight performances. For more, visit westfieldplayhouse.org.

It has exposed brick walls and a limited but delicious menu. I started with beer-steamed mussels ($10), a heaping bowl of beersteamed mussels with herbs and crostini.

The mussels are steamed in Scarlet Lane’s own beer. For my main dish, I tried the Turkish Wet Burger, which is a beef and lamb

Scarlet Lane gave me the impression of high-class food, but the environment isn’t stuffy like some fancy restaurants in the area. I relaxed with a pint of Scarlet Lane Myopic Hazy IPA and enjoyed a delicious meal at the bar.

Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair in Sydney, Australia. (Photo by Don Knebel)

A history of Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair Commentary by Don Knebel

One of the most popular destinations for visitors to Sydney, Australia, is named for the wife of a British army offiTRAVEL cer who started the country on the path to what it is today.

In 1788, with the American colonies no longer available as dumping grounds for its convicts, England established a penal colony known as New South Wales on what is now eastern Australia and New Zealand.

The colony was initially governed by military officers, one of whom was William Bligh, the captain of the HMS Bounty at the time of the mutiny. After Bligh was deposed as governor of New South Wales in 1808, he was replaced by Col. Lachlan Macquarie, who was charged with bringing order to the colony, which by then included freed prisoners.

By the time Macquarie returned to England in 1822, he had begun the transformation of New South Wales from a prison colony to a free settlement that included almost 40,000 nonindigenous people.

Macquarie brought with him to New South Wales Elizabeth, a cousin he married

after his first wife died. At least according to a local legend, Mrs. Macquarie enjoyed spending time on the tip of a peninsula on the south side of the harbor, where she sat on a sandstone outcropping to watch the ships sailing to and from England. In 1813, to facilitate her visits, then-Major Gen. Macquarie built a 3-mile-long road from the Government House to what is now known as Mrs. Macquarie’s Point. Convicts carved the sandstone into the shape of a bench. A later inscription on the bench tells the story of the road. Today, the area around Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair, adjacent to the Royal Botanic Gardens, offers a panoramic view of the Sydney Harbour, including the famous Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge and Kirribilli House, the residence of Australia’s prime minister.
