Housing project voted down

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

A housing project aimed at empty nesters on the city’s west side was unanimously rejected by the Noblesville Common Council on Feb. 24.

The Courtyards of Hazel Dell plans Council were to build 29 single-story, upscale condominium houses priced in the upper $200,000 to $400,000 on 8.8 acres on the northeast corner of Hazel Dell Parkway and 161st Street.

The homes will have no side yards as patios will butt against the adjacent home.

John Smeltzer, attorney for the developers, said the development was aimed at age 55 and older and no swing sets or playgrounds were permitted. He said six floorplans were available to prevent a cookie cutter look to the development.

“We’re not creating a need but responding to a demand,” said Smeltzer. “It’s the perfect fit for this site and community.”

The project has support and opposition from neighbors of the area, which is farm land.

Ralph Waver, who shares 800 feet of the proposed development’s property line, supported the project. . “It’s very attractive, high quality homes.”

“I don’t think anyone has a more vested interest in this than we do,” he said. “We have visited other units they have built in other places. We’ve been very satisfied with what we have seen – their workmanship,

layout, care.”

Weaver said another reason he supported the project was that it prevented larger two-story homes from being built adjacent to his land.

Several neighbors like Terry Murphy expressed concerns about the density of the development. A change of zoning would have moved the property from rural to the highest density allowed and is typically seen in downtown areas.

“R1 to R4 is a jump,” Murphy said, adding he worried about the precedent it might set for future development. “It’s a way to max development on smaller parcels. We need to look at the area.”

The project faced an uphill battle as soon as it returned to the council after receiving an 8-2 unfavorable recommendation from the Noblesville Plan Commission on Jan. 20. Concerns were raised about density, landscape buffer, sidewalks and noise. While no new discussion was made by the council, Jeff Zeckel, who previously voted against the project at the plan commission, previously questioned the project’s proximity to Hazel Dell Parkway at the Feb. 10 meeting.

“You still have a lot of noise,” he said. “Fifteen thousand vehicles drive on there now. I have real concern with the noise pollution there at that spot.”

The common council approved two “empty nester” communities on Feb. 10. Like The Courtyards of Hazel Dell each had proposed building neighborhoods with smaller one-story buildings with minimal yards and landscaping.

Committee to study parking situation

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Mayor John Ditslear has formed a new parking task force in order to examine and address concerns that have been expressed traffic about the situation in downtown Noblesville. The task force consists of Noblesville representatives from the city, chamber of commerce, Main Street, common council and downtown business owners, merchants and residents.

“Each member of the task force has heard various concerns about parking and we all share the goal of wanting to improve downtown parking,” said Ditslear. “While we cannot solve each concern to everyone’s satisfaction, I believe it makes sense for us to all meet as a group and work together to create solutions whenever possible.”

Saturday, March 7 The ordinance on the books allows downtown parking for two hours free each day, not two hours each spot. (File photo)

The group will hold its first public meeting at 10:30 a.m. March 4 at City Hall and will be compiling a master list of parking issues. It will then begin the process of addressing each issue and evaluating and creating various options to help concerns.

For almost 40 years, Dr. Joe Forgey has made Noblesville children’s teeth brighter, healthier

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Dr. Joe Forgey estimates that in his job at Pediatric Dentistry of Noblesville, he’s seen or had his hands in thousands cover story of mouths since he opened the practice in 1977.

“The last 15 years I’ve seen lots of second generation and some third generation,” he said.

Forgey attended Butler University to be a basketball coach and science teacher but the nature of the small college made him question his career path.

“The school was so small that most of my classmates were going to medical or dental school,” he said. “I thought, ‘Maybe I ought to consider going to dental school.’ It was something I never thought about before.”

After graduating from Butler in 1970 and dental school Indiana University in 1975, Forgey completed a two-year pediatric dental residency at Riley Hospital for Children. One of his classmates, Steve Mullin, was from Noblesville and while he wanted to practice in a bigger city like Denver, suggested Forgey give his hometown a look.

“It was the right size but still small when I came here in 1977,” Forgey said.

In his 38 years, Forgey has had offices in three different buildings – all in the same proximity.

The first was the former Riverview Health Professionals Building where he had 1,200 square feet. After 15 years he moved to the old Pink Pig Building and renovated a former restaurant

Since 1980 Forgey has spoken to kindergarten and first-grade students in Noblesville, Sheridan and Fishers about the importance of brushing their teeth and dental hygiene.

and real estate office into a 3,000 square feet practice and added Dr. Chad Hazelrigg. Seven years ago the practice built a new 6,000 square foot building at 106 Lakeview Dr. and added Dr. Charles Fuhrer.

“It’s been almost 40 years and I’ve never left the same parking lot,” Forgey said.

Noblesville was quite different when Forgey first began his practice.

“There weren’t hardly any specialist – dental or medical – in this area,” he said. “I did a lot of things I now refer out. There were no oral surgeons close. Now everything you need in medical dental you can get.”

Forgey also joked that the old saying with you had to drive to 86th Street for movies and restaurants. It then became 96th Street, then 146th Street.

“Now I find I don’t have to leave Noblesville for anything,” he said.

One thing that hasn’t changed in Forgey’s career is the tools of his trade.

“We’re doing a lot of the same but we have much better materials to work with,” he said.

“It’s pretty much the same tools refined to do things a little easier and better. They had it pretty well figured out in 1970. The materials are much better. They are a lot more aesthetically better looking than what we had back then.

Also x-rays are all digital. That’s one of the nicer things.”

The biggest change in the city that has impacted Forgey is the growth, particularly in the number of schools.

“There were three then. Noblesville barely needed a pediatric dentist in town,” he said.

As a way to educate youth on dental hygiene, Forgey began visiting local schools and speaking to kindergarteners and preschoolers about their teeth. He began in 1980 and has been doing it ever since at schools in Noblesville, Fishers and Sheridan.

“Twenty percent of the kid population still gets most of the cavities for the same reasons: they don’t get to the dentist soon enough, they eat way too much sweets and sugar, and they don’t brush enough. That’s stayed the same,” he said.

“The disease that most children have more than anything else is dental decay. Why? Because we can’t get our hands on them soon enough.”

Fuhrer, who joined the practice after dental school and his residency, said Forgey is the best mentor he could ever have asked for.

“From dentistry to life I’ve learned a lot from Dr. Forgey. He never has a bad day. He’s a glass half-full kind of guy. Very seldom do I see him without a smile on his face,” he said. ““All three of us came here to work and live here and we wouldn’t want it any other way.”

Forgey’s way with patients and their parents is one aspect Fuhrer said he constantly learns from.

“His bedside manner is something I try to emulate with my patients,” Fuhrer said. “Nobody does it better than Dr. Forgey.”

Pediatric Dentistry of Noblesville sees patients ages 0 through 18, but Forgey said the most business is ages 13 and younger.

“We see special needs folks over 18,” he said, “and some college kids still come back and see me.”

Gary Hipes has been the science department chairman at Noblesville High School for 20 years. He developed the anatomy and physiology program for NHS’ dual credit Hipes course with Ivy Tech. Hipes also worked with Dr. Schmidt from Eli Lily to design a traveling horse skeleton exhibit that became part of the Purdue Science Express.

School/subject: Human anatomy and physiology, AP environmental science and biology at NHS. Why did you become a teacher? Because I enjoyed school and my mother was a teacher. I chose biology because of his biology teacher in high school. My father was a farmer but allergies prevented me from getting involved in farming.

What are your goals for students? Major goal for anatomy and physiology is that they be successful at the next level. Students who take his course are interested in a health career. Their feedback is that they have an advantage. I also want to make students better health consumers and provide them an early chance to make sure this is an area they want to pursue.

What advice would you give for parents? Stay in touch with their child. Knowing what they are doing in class and why it is important. Encourage the students to make sure they are studying and spending time to understand.

What makes Noblesville Schools special? The community. It is very supportive. Parents are supportive, students are engaged and the NHS staff really cares about what they are doing. It is nice that the school is seen as an essential part of the community.

What is something others might not know about you? I have a painting business, help with the family farm and love to play golf.

Getting away

FR O M T H E BACKSHOP

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Here we are, treading water

The argument that we, as a nation, are not much better off financially than those were in the 1970s should be something to consider.

Americans for Limited Government, which we’re all for in practice, says one of the big head-scratchers inside the Beltway is politicians not understanding that the people they serve, the voters, believe they’re running in place. That means as incomes have risen, so, too, have prices. Voters believe that because it is, without a doubt, absolutely the case.

Here are some startling figures, courtesy of AFLG (and please feel free to draw your own conclusions): • From 1976 through 2013, inflation averaged 3.97 percent a year. Household median income grew ostensibly at 3.96 percent a year. So, while inflation has slowed since the late 1970s, so have wages.

• A look at the Freddie Mac home-price index will show residence values have grown nominally at 5.28 percent a year through 2013, compared with median income’s 3.96 percent.

• The cost of sending the kids to college has exploded at 5.5 percent a year, says the U.S. Department of Education (which we would appreciate being shuttered), and wages obviously trail that.

• The Kaiser Family Foundation points to a rise in the cost of a family health premium, which has risen at 7.6 percent a year since 2000, compared to household median income at just 1.7 percent a year since that time.

So as the feds continue to trumpet that the Consumer Price Index is historically low, especially in comparison to the “Great Inflation” of the ’70s, it doesn’t necessarily reflect the items on which we spend most of our dough: mortgages, rent, college loans and, now, mandatory health care. So, when your representative to Congress asks if you believe you’re better off now, tell him or her that you don’t know because all you’re doing is treading water.

Tailoring a custom

Commentary by Terry Anker

“Why are you so dressed up?” I’m confronted with the question routinely and take it in good humor – as I believe it is intended to be a mild jibe spawning from the interrogator’s own somewhat slovenly attire. The bigger question may be, why do we wear suits at all?

As I pull together these thoughts wearing a grey herringbone that’s pushing 15 years old, I realize it’s a bit worn but more than adequate to keep out the cold. The tie was a gift; but alas, the giver has been forgotten to time. The white shirt is from my favorite purveyor in Hong Kong, Jimmy Chen in the Peninsula Hotel; but, for the first time my attention is drawn to the slight fraying at the cuff from countless trips to the laundry, always with heavy starch. I remember ordering it on my first visit to that dynamic and booming city. The exact year eludes me, yet it was more than a decade ago. The shoes are relatively new.

A while back, I equivocated in my stance of per-

petually re-soleing and began to only allot those resources to the very best footwear. The rest, well, are put to rest as soon as the heels lose their shape.

So, back to the question. I’m wearing a suit in large part because I always have. It reminds me of civilization, and custom, and tradition, and seriousness. It’s not to impress. It’s not to intimidate. It’s not to seek comfort. And, it’s not to make a statement of personal superiority.

It’s a uniform. It signals that I’m ready to work.

It communicates that I respect you, our interaction, and myself enough to shave my face, shine the shoes, and tie a cravat. Isn’t that reason enough? It’s less about custom tailoring and more about tailoring a custom.

Q U O T E O F T H E W E E K You’re as young as your dreams, and as old as your cynicism.

– Tony Campolo

Four moms, three nights, two rooms, one foreign country . . . read on for a tale of the best girls’ trip ever! Or at least a pretty good one.

I’ll take credit for getting the ball rolling.

After plans with my own sisters failed to materialize, I presented the idea to my three local sisters-in-law. I needed a break from the cold and grey, and quite frankly, from motherhood and marriage. We debated between a high-end place in the Bahamas and a much-cheaperbut-decidedly-questionable resort in the Dominican Republic. The promise of warmer temperatures won out, and less than twenty-four hours later, I had us booked at an all-inclusive in Punta Cana.

Having never traveled to the DR, and because I’d been so busy with work, carpools and dead lizards, my preparation for international travel was limited to a spray tan and weather-check the night before. I had my passport, a credit card and a bikini, though; I figured I was set.

Turns out, a Spanish-English dictionary would have been extremely helpful, as we were the only Americans at the resort and our language skills were limited at best. (Dora can only get you so far!) Between the employees and the Russians and French Canadians, we were frequently in the dark as to what was happening or, as we soon discovered, what we were eating. The roughly-translated menu identified our meal one night as “Goat in Perfume”, “Rice with Best Meat,” and “Sweet Milk,” which by the way, was neither sweet nor milky.

Also lost in translation was my request for two adjacent rooms with double beds. At check-in, we learned we’d be staying three buildings apart and that SIL B and I would be sleeping together. We did have AC and hot water though, which unfortunately cannot be said of the other room. Sorry, ladies!

We ran short on cash because I was the only one who remembered to inform my bank that I’d be pulling pesos from an ATM, experienced extreme turbulence on our descents through both an ice and a tropical storm, and may or may not have landed ourselves on a fake Cuban cigar outfit’s hit list.

And yet, this was one of the funnest [sic] trips of my adult life. We enjoyed stellar people-watching (those tight European-style swim trunks are a hoot, especially on the elderly), hilarious conversations (How would Doo look in that thong Speedo?), and as many shots of what sounded like “Marijuana’s” as we could stomach, which sadly was only one. Best. Trip.

Ever.

Transformers roll out at the Indianapolis Children’s Museum step into a battle as Bumblebee, fighting in a battle based on the Cartoon Network “Robots in Disguise” series. Also featured at the exhibit will be the voice of Peter Cullen, who’s played Optimus Prime for 30 years.

Access is free with admission to the museum, and the exhibit runs until July 6.

This isn’t the first time Transformers have come to town. In March 2011, the Children’s Museum unveiled Bumblebee as a permanent icon in the welcome center. The 17-foot, 1-ton Transformer is a prop from the 2007 live-action film. Then in summer 2012, the museum premiered a special “Seeing is Bee-lieving” program, with Bumblebee transforming from robot to Chevy Camaro (and back).

A new program is coming later this month that will add Optimus Prime. For more, visit childrensmuseum.org.

They’re part of the “Transformers: Robots in Disguise” exFor the kids hibit, which coincides with the launch of the Cartoon Network series on March 14. Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, and Grimlock will be featured, as well as multiple levels of toys and puzzles to play with. In addition, guests can learn about the process of toy creation, transform themselves into Bumblebee, and even design their own Transformer.

A team from the Children’s Museum visited Hasbro to see how their design team has worked to create more than 6,000 unique Transformers over the years.

Learning about that process helped to inspire the exhibit.

“It’s not something anybody has done before… it’s ours,” said Charity Counts, associate vice president of exhibits. “It’s a once-ina-lifetime thing here in Indianapolis.”

At the exhibit, guests can walk through every step of the creation process; they can create their own Transformer design, test its 3D capabilities, and watch as a 3D printer at the museum creates parts all day long. Kinect technology allows guests to

More than 1,200 girls are expected to attend the event from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m on March 7.

The event is free for museum members, admission is $6 for nonmember Girl Scouts in uniform and their family members. General admission for non-members is $8.

Effective ways to manage weight Commentary by David Pletzer, MD

Weight management is a health concern for many adults. Since being overweight body and obesity are linked to a number of chronic diseases, including heart disease and diabetes, controlling weight – especially as you grow older – is an important health priority. Here are some tips for effective weight management: Eliminate “comfort foods” and foods that cause temptation. In addition to purging your pantry and refrigerator of junk foods that offer no nutritional value, consider which comfort foods tempt you and refrain from buying them.

Manage portion sizes. For weight control, the amount of food you eat is often more important than what you eat. Use a salad or smaller plate when serving dinner, and consume only two-thirds of the food, saving the rest for another meal. This helps reduce calorie intake.

Eat healthy snacks in between meals or drink a glass of water or tea mid-day to ease hunger.

Snack smart. While healthy snacking during the day can increase metabolism and stave off the hunger that often results in overeating at mealtime, avoid any type of snacking after dinner.

Make exercise or physical activity a daily

priority. Aim to exercise or do some kind of physical activity every day to burn calories, which in turn helps control weight. Daily walking – even just 10 minutes down the hall at work or across a parking lot—gets you up and moving.

Don’t let weather be a deterrent. When dressed appropriately, short walks are possible in most weather conditions.

Keep track of food intake and activity.

Write down daily food consumption and exercise in a journal or consider some of the popular apps that help count calories and steps. It’s also important to weigh yourself frequently to maintain target weight goals.

Seek help, if needed. If efforts to manage weight are unsuccessful, consult your primary care doctor. Your doctor knows your health history and situation and can help you develop a personalized plan. He or she can also discuss diet options and refer you to sources of credible information. Personal trainers are also good resources.

Commentary by Cory Black We often think of cancer as the leading cause of death, but heart disease shortens more lives.

And many are not aware, but nutrition it is a disease that equally affects women as often as men.

We can reduce the chances of heart disease thorough lifestyle changes that include a healthy diet and exercise. There are also three key nutritional supplements that will also help support a healthy heart and help in the fight against heart disease: Coenzyme Q10, Fish Oil, and Vitamin D. Coenzyme Q10, or CoQ10, is a natural antioxidant and is vital in oxygen utilization and energy production, particularly in the muscle cells of our heart. CoQ10 plays key roles in assuring circulatory health, optimal function of the heart muscle, and vessel walls. Deficiency in CoQ10 has been associated with angina, heart failure, and high blood pressure.

Fish oil contains Omega-3 fatty acids that are essential to the function of body and can only be obtained through our diet, of which cold-water fish is a good source. These fatty acids have the effect of reducing inflammation throughout the body, and high inflammation over time damages

our blood vessels. Omega-3 fatty acids may also reduce blood pressure and blood clotting, which leads to heart disease.

Our bodies produce vitamin D when we spend time out in the sun. And we often have a deficiency, particularly during winter month’s when we spend most of our time indoors. Vitamin D is important for supporting many functions from our immune system to bone strength. As well, vitamin D deficiency has been linked to a higher likelihood of heart disease in studies.

Reduce your chances of heart disease. A healthy heart is a healthy life.

Grammar double feature Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Dear Mr. Fischer, I have a friend that uses the words ‘so’ and ‘for’ interchangeably. For example, ingrammar guy stead of saying, ‘Let’s put our shoes on, so we can go outside,’ she will say, ‘Let’s put our shoes on, for we can go outside.’ Would you please tell us whether this is proper English and if you have ever heard this before? Thank you in advance.

Cordially, Concerned Friend in Zionsville.”

Answer: That’s an unusual one, I have to say.

“For” can be used sometimes as a substitute for “as,” or “since” or “because.” The first example that comes to mind is Walt Whitman, who, in his poem “Pioneers! O Pioneers!” did just that: “For we cannot tarry here / We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger / We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend / Pioneers! O pioneers!”

All that being said, “for” and “so” are not interchangeable – at the very least not in the usage you mentioned.

Question: “Hello, Jordan. I really enjoy your column in the ‘Current.’ I do some writing myself,

so I find your columns helpful, interesting, and informative. I would like to get your feedback on a modern trend in writing – one which I despise, but seems to be accepted practice now.

I will frame my question in the very form which I’m questioning: What do you think about the modern. Tendency. To write. In incomplete. Sentences? Perhaps that would make a good topic for one of your columns!» -- (Orlando Smith) Answer: Thanks for writing in, Orlando!

What do I think about it? It’s annoying as all get-out. I suspect it evolved from the scattered, quickly-written nature of text messages and online communication.

What’s to be done about it, though? I suppose we could start a letter-writing campaign. At the end of the day, I think you just have to keep fighting the good grammar fight. Stay strong, brothers and sisters.

The Boat Museum on Cairo’s Giza Plateau was built to display a single item -- a 4,500-year-old wooden boat. Exactly why the boat travel was built remains a mystery.

In 1954, archaeologists discovered 1,224 neatly arranged pieces of cedar wood in a pit carved in the bedrock just south of the Great Pyramid of Khufu (also called Cheops), the pharaoh who ruled Egypt from about 2589 to 2566 B.C. After studying ancient shipbuilding techniques, workers eventually reassembled the pieces into a boat 142 feet long and 20 feet wide. The cedar planks are held together with vegetable rope, which was also buried in the pit.

When placed in water, the wood swells and the rope shrinks, making the hull water-tight without the need for additional sealing. With no place for a sail, the flat-bottomed boat came equipped with six pairs of oars, the pair at the rear used for steering.

The shape of the boat, with an elongated prow and stern suggesting lotus stalks, resembles so-called “solar boats” shown on ancient Egyptian drawings transporting the sun god on his daily journey across the sky. Since deceased

pharaohs were believed to accompany the sun god on his travels, some Egyptologists have speculated that the boat was buried, like the pharaoh’s other earthly possessions, for the pharaoh to use in the afterlife. But a disassembled boat seems an odd choice for a deified pharaoh to use while traversing the heavens and the boat shows evidence of having been in earthly water before being disassembled and placed in its pit.

So the boat may have been used to transport the body of Khufu down the Nile from his capital in Memphis to his tomb in the Great Pyramid before it was disassembled and buried to prevent its reuse by mere mortals. Or perhaps the boat was used by Khufu for trips along the Nile to greet his subjects.

Whatever its original purpose, the world’s oldest intact boat is as seaworthy as the day it was built. Khufu’s reassembled boat is now displayed near his pyramid in a building also displaying pictures of its discovery and reconstruction.

One of those days?

Help is just around the corner.

Space planning improves master bath functionality

Commentary by Larry Greene

EXISTING BATHROOM: Located in Noblesville, this 11-year-old master bathroom was suffering from water pressure blueprint for issues and lack of funcimprovement tionality. “The original steam component of the shower quit working, the vessel sinks were not practical and the original angles of the walls created wasted space. We wanted to reconfigure the bathroom to allow for a bigger walk-in shower and a larger tub.”

EXPANDED SHOWER & TUB: Once the demolition of the existing bathroom was complete, the wall framing was modified to allow for the new shower half wall, bench and niches. New water lines and shower valves were installed for the Delta “Dryden” showerheads and body sprays.

The existing tub drain and water supply lines were also relocated for the new Jacuzzi corner tub.

VANITY & CHARGING STATION DETAILS: The main single sink vanity was replaced with a reverse double vanity in a Sable with black glaze finish. To maximize storage space, the vanity features two lower drawers instead of false upper drawers. A linen cabinet was added to the back wall for extra storage that doubles as a charging station with built-in USB ports.

MATERIAL SELECTIONS: “We wanted more natural light in the bathroom and wanted the

“The new layout of the bathroom is much more functional than what we had previously. At this time of the year, we have really come to appreciate and love the heated tile floor the most.”

materials to reflect rich and warm colors.” Cambria quartz in a “Sussex” color was chosen for the vanity countertop and shower parts including the bench, wall, threshold and niche caps.

To contrast with the quartz material, “contempo tan” tile was selected for the shower wall while the “Gobi Corinth” accent tile and “Canyon Olive” heated floor tile add warmth. Oil rubbed bronze finishes coordinate with the warm tones of the cabinetry and floor tile. A glass panel on the knee wall allows natural light to stream into the bathroom.
