Lunsford takes presidential reins Guerin

Dan Burton addressed the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce at its monthly luncheon.

Burton to local business leaders: 'throw the rascals out' of D.C.

By Zach Dunkin Current in Noblesville What America needs now is a dose of 1980’s Reaganomics At least that’s part of the solution U.S. Representative Dan Burton in fixing the nation’s state of affairs. That and “throwing the rascals out for taking us down this road.”

“What we need is a man like Ronald Reagan,” Burton told a capacity audience at the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce’s monthly luncheon May 24 at the Harbour Trees Golf Club.

“Ronald Reagan came in when we had 12 percent unemployment and 14 percent inflation. Everyone said he was going to have to raise taxes.”

Then, breaking into his best Reagan impression, Burton softened his voice and said, “Well …what we need to do is lower taxes so people will have more money to spend and businesses will have more money to invest.”

“And so he did and, we had 20 years of economic growth. That’s the way we dig ourselves out of this hole right now.”

Serving his 14th term as U.S. Representative for Indiana’s 5th district, Republican Burton began his talk by reading from Thomas Paine’s “The Crisis,” which described George Washington’s dire situation as the general prepared to cross the Delaware River to battle the Hessians in Trenton, N.J. on Dec. 23, 1776. The passage begins with the quote “These are the times that try men’s souls” and warns that the new country’s freedom is in jeopardy.

“And I believe our freedom is at stake right now,” said Burton, whose ancestors include a14-year-old boy who crossed the Delaware with Washington. “We have a man in the White House who believes in government control over our lives.”

Michelle Corrao, community relations director for Hamilton County-based Prevail Inc., was honored at the luncheon as Mayor John Ditslear declared May 24 “Michelle Corrao Day.”

Pointing to government management of the auto and finance industries, health care and foreign trade, the 72-year-old Indianapolis man said he is anticipating a special session following the November election because of “a huge bill with trillions of dollars in spending which the democrats know they are not going to be able to push through right now.”

“A lot of people who are running for re-election don’t want that stuff brought up between now and the election because it will affect their seats,” said Burton, who last week was honored by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce with it “Spirit of Enterprise” award for supporting legislation critical to the business community. “There is a tremendous amount of anti-incumbent sentiment right now.

If they held an election now, they’d all be thrown out lock, stock and barrel.”

He implored business owners at the luncheon – “the leaders of this community” – to remind local citizens all the way up to Election Day “what is at stake here.”

“Tell everybody you know to throw the rascals out this November,” he said.

“Throw them out and put some people in there who believe in fiscal responsibility and constitutional government and liberty and freedom.”

OUR VIEWS

It is our position that current debate on Capitol Hill regarding financial regulation ignores two important players: Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. What caused the recent financial meltdown and recession? President Obama blames bankers for the disaster, but this view might overlook the forest for the trees. Is a more accurate perspective that too many people were granted housing mortgages who couldn’t afford them?

Politicians in D.C., looking for ways to buy votes from constituents, encouraged artificially low interest rates on mortgages, backed by the U.S. taxpayers, in case of default – loans the private sector would have denied.

Times were good – low unemployment, housing prices at an all-time high, stock market gains in an everlasting uptrend. The mortgage securitization industry eagerly bought subprime mortgage paper and used the loot to speculate on the market.

Now bankers are being blamed for a mess the federal government created if not certainly enabled. Freddie Mac is seeking $10.6 billion more in federal aid. Like the health care bill, the new financial regulation bill puts a bandage on a spreading cancer. Shouldn’t Freddie, Fannie and our elected officials be held to the same accountability standards as the banking industry?

Lessons learned

It is our opinion that the youth of Hamilton County should pay close attention to the recent lessons demonstrated by their peers. As has been widely reported, the fair city of Carmel has found itself host to some deeply troubling events of late. Hazing – sex crimes – we choose not to rehash the details. But are these important messages being received and embedded in our youth? Errors in judgment (and even criminal behavior) occur all too frequently. There should, and will be, repercussions. Will we learn from these examples?

Children believe themselves invincible. Many would argue that recent generations have also developed a false sense of entitlement. Together, these are a dangerous combination. Rather than allow this combination to continue to develop, parents should discuss these events with their kids, not hide from the topic. Some might argue that our community must address its own hubris.

Conversation alone will not end bad behavior. Some must still touch the stove to learn that it is hot. However, discussing these issues and inviting open dialog about such topics can only help. Engage, and make sure our future generations (and our present leaders) know that learning from mistakes can be just as important as avoiding them altogether.

From the backshop No question: Palladium is in excellent hands Having worked closely with the team at The Palladium the centerpiece of the emerging regional project, The Center for the Performing Arts, we must say we are continually impressed with how the place is run. Executive Director Steven Libman and his team, including Public Relations Manager John Hughey, are tackling a Herculean task with grace and levelheadedness. The Palladium and the adjacent City Center development is an extraordinary and visionary effort by the city of Carmel, and it’s reassuring to know it’s in such capable hands.

••• Ah, summertime, and the living will be anything but easy for the officials and administrators of Carmel Clay Schools and the high school. We hear there will be activity aplenty in legal offices, and perhaps the Hamilton County prosecutor’s office, as the aftermath of the CHS hazing/bullying scandal continues to unfold.

••• Have you heard the story about Pennsylvania Rep. Joe Sestak, who defeated incumbent Sen. Arlen Specter for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate, admitting that someone in the Obama administration offered him a job if he dropped out of the race? If true, this is a felony; using ex-

••• We applaud U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s recent comments regarding the sinking of a South Korean warship, which has been blamed on North Korea. Clinton told reporters the attack that killed 46 sailors was an "unacceptable provocation" by the North and the "international community has a responsibility and a duty to respond." We agree.

••• CORRECTION: Our item in last week’s column inadvertently misidentified the champion of immigration reform for Indiana. State Sen. Mike Delph (R-29) is the lawmaker we’re solidly behind in bringing order to the nonsense that exists today. We apologize for the error.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE RELOCATING Changing ResidenCes Following a divoRCe

Divorce and relocation are two of the most stressful changes in an adult’s life.

Numerous details and tasks must be managed and completed. When children are involved, the focus is usually whether Stephenie Jocham the change will affect their friends or which school they attend.

What many parents do not realize is that their move may violate a state statute. Pursuant to Indiana law, a relocating individual must file detailed written notice of their intent to move with the clerk of the court that issued a custody or parenting time order. The notice is required well in advance of a move, and applies regardless of whether the move is across the street, across town or to a different state. Many parents have been caught by surprise by the relatively new relocation statute and have found themselves unwittingly in violation of such.

Previously, the statute only required filing of a relocation notice when a move was greater than 100 miles or out of state. Now, notice applies to every move and must be filed 90 days before the

www.youarecurrent.com

proposed relocation. The non-relocating parent then has 60 days to object to the move or request modifications in custody or parenting time from the court relevant to the relocation.

The court considers numerous factors in determining whether any such modification should be granted, including the distance involved, and whether the relocating parent is making the move in good faith and has a legitimate reason for the move. The priority of the court is to confirm that the move is in the best interests of the children.

If distance is a factor, other matters must be addressed, including how the move will affect parenting time and impact the non-relocating parent’s relationship with the children. This can be a volatile subject for many parents, and the financial and emotional stresses can exacerbate the situation. However, communication and cooperation can minimize the conflict and parents may be able to negotiate an agreement and alleviate many relocation hurdles and concerns.

Consulting with an experienced family law attorney can help either the relocating or non-relocating parent understand how the statute applies to their particular situation and develop a plan of action to address their concerns.

The above is for informational purposes only and should not be considered legal advice. Each case is unique and you should consult an attorney for advice regarding your particular situation.

Entertainment information by phone: What a concept!

COMMENTARY

By Zach Dunkin Am I missing something or shouldn’t this be placed – albeit sarcastically – under the category of Wow, Isn’t That a Novel Idea?

I recently received a press release from the City of Noblesville which stated: “Instead of relying solely on the City of Noblesville’s Web site or Facebook page, now residents can make one quick phone call this summer to find out about upcoming city events.”

Huh? Isn’t that the way we used to do it before there were such animals as dotcoms, FaceMySpacebook and Twitter? Or is it Tweeter?

I don’t mean to ridicule. Props to Mayor John Ditslear and his team for a great addition to their information highway.

Being the mobile society that we are, how many times are we out and about without computer access (yes, I know about Wi-Fi and smart phones)? But we still have our cell phones don’t we?

Plus, believe it or not, techinoids, some folks don’t even own a computer or do the Web thing. But they still have telephones; landlines, even.

Now, thanks to this old school concept, all we have to do is call 770.2020 and listen to the Summer Events Line recording for information about events such as the Summer Concert Series, First Fridays, Movies in the Park, and more. The recording will be changed regularly to include information about upcoming events.

An added benefit of the phone line is that the recording will be changed if an event is cancelled or postponed as a result of weather, although I suppose the changes will be posted quicker on the Web site.

For the record, residents and visitors now have access to Noblesville events info at: Web sites: www.cityofnoblesville.org or www.

DestinationNoblesville.com.

Maybe I am a mere mortal after all Commentary

By Danielle Wilson This just in! I am not Supermom. I repeat, I am not supermom.

I know, it’s shocking, and no one is more surprised than I. Here I’d been thinking I was pretty cool. Four seemingly well-balanced children, a loving husband, and a successful pseudo-career as a daycare provider-slash-weekly columnist, plus the several mutant genes­required of all comic book heroes: red hair, twin, Democrat. Wonder Woman, watch out!

But what happened at the first sign of real stress? I collapsed into a driveling coward, completely incapable of functioning on any level above the walking dead.

Before we moved in with my in-laws, see, I’d truly believed I’d sail through this homeless experience unscathed. They have a great house with plenty of room, they’re easy to live with, and they are as generous with their time as they are with their home.

Most importantly, they understand and respect boundaries, even if those lines inconvenience them or their lifestyle.

And actually, the first week went fairly smoothly. We got the kids settled in, laundry and food organized, and computers and separate TV viewing areas all set up.

But somehow, despite our careful planning, last week nearly sent me to the looney bin. The fatigue, short temper, irritability and depression were so acute that I even gave serious contemplation to the idea that I was pregnant, even though my husband was successfully snipped six years ago.

Mother’s Day, which should have been amazing – as I was going to Louisville by myself to throw a shower for a best friend finally pregnant after seven years of infertility and getting a free haircut at a swanky salon – was absolutely miserable. I cried twice on that day alone, bringing the weekly total to four, double my

normal annual saltwater output. I kept taking my temperature to see if I was sick, thinking a viral infection might help explain my poor sleeping and general malaise.

Hel-lo! Not only am I not Supermom, but I’m none too bright either. I wasn’t having a miracle baby, nor did I have mono; I was just stressed out to the bejeesus and having trouble dealing with losing control over every single element of my life. Added to that, I was unable to simply allow myself a moment to be human.

Because even under the best circumstances, this would be hard on anyone, even Supermom.

And I think it might actually be worse for people like me who are so used to being on top of things. Without a home to clean, organize and spend my days in, I’m a bit of a lost soul, who doesn’t know exactly what her role is anymore. Am I a mother or a house guest? Am I a wife or a daughter-in-law? I can’t seem to figure out where I fit in.

So I shouted at my kids, was mean to my husband, and gave everyone else the cold shoulder. In the evenings, I mutated into some hideous combination of Rainman and Hitler, barking orders to complete homework and get to bed. Mornings weren’t much better, as I herded my kids to the van and off to school, growling about being late and incessantly nitpicking their choices of clothing. I was morphing into a supervillian.

Luckily, this week, I’m feeling a bit more normal. I’ve been able to take a deep breath and remind myself I am only human. Peace out.

Trip to Diana Theater reminds us of the one that got away Commentary

By Krista Bocko With hot summer nights upon us, I thought I’d share about a well-loved movie theater located about 16 miles north of Noblesville. A quintessential small town, single-screen theater, the Diana Theater, built in 1926, has reached iconic status.

Moviegoers flock from miles and miles around, and the times we’ve gone we’ve always seen people we know from Noblesville.

Is it worth the drive? Well, if you don’t mind not having 16 screens to choose from, you want to experience some history and/or you want a fun date or family activity that won’t break the bank, the Diana in Tipton is for you. And, I sure hope it is. Yes, it’s worth it.

And you know what gets me every time?

Noblesville had a Diana Theater once. Right at Ninth and Clinton, where there is now a parking lot. How did such a good thing get away?

I don’t know the answer to that, but it makes me realize how imperative it is to embrace the small town charms and icons we have left and how much richer our lives are because of them.

Our last trip to the Diana in Tipton, there was late last summer, and we’re overdue for another. We saw “Up!” and took the whole fam, which is always a feat and something we never do, with the exception of going to the Diana.

Civic honors Hoosier author with new name That’s because the Diana has a cry room.

When the baby got restless, we just headed upstairs to the cry room and watched the rest of the movie up there without worrying about bugging anyone.

When we left the theater it was still light out and was 9:30. We marveled at it and took the drive home, stopping at the DQ on the way. A perfect summer night.

Visit www.fandango.com, zipcode 46072 for the Diana’s movie times.

Local gas stations fill this slushie junkie's wish

COMMENTARY

By Hannah Davis The first step to recovery is admitting that I have a problem. Unfortunately, I haven’t quite gotten there yet.

Don’t fret too much, though. This will be no discussion of alcohol. Only of the miraculous, recuperative powers of the slushie. (These powers exist. Ask anyone under the age of 23.

They’ll back me up.)

With the exception of Mountain Dew, no other drink holds such a loyal fan base. Gamers, athletes, and hipsters alike gulp ‘em down on a regular basis, and although I can’t speak for two of the three (you guess which), I can safely say that my charmingly unhealthy group of friends doesn’t mind imbibing more than once in a blue moon.

Unfortunately, they get a bad wrap from the older, more responsible sect. One in the ‘hood family prohibits their 12-year-old daughter from consuming any more than a small dose once a week. It’s understandable, I suppose. After all, my usual 32-ounce Speedway slushie – called a Freeze -- packs in over 500 sugary calories.

The name, determined by leadership from both the Center and the Civic, was selected as an enduring tribute to the legendary Hoosier novelist and playwright, Booth Tarkington (July 29, 1869 – May 19, 1946), who wrote several original plays for the Civic stage in its early years. During the 1949-1950 season, the theater's name was changed to the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre of Indianapolis, Inc. as a tribute to the world-renowned author.

“The naming of this beautiful new theater was the ideal opportunity for Civic to pay homage to Booth Tarkington who made such a profound impact on Indianapolis, the state of Indiana and the arts community at large,” Dick said in a statement. “I can think of no better way to honor this prolific author and the storied past of Civic Theatre than by hailing its new home as Booth Tarkington’s namesake.”

Civic Theatre will be the principal resident theater company of The Tarkington and will also have access to the 200-seat studio theater, as well as rehearsal space, classrooms for education programming and administrative offices. The Tarkington will be ready for use

by August 2011, just in time for the start of Civic’s 2011-2012 season.

Currently, the Civic is nearing the start of its 96th season overall and its last at Marian University in Indianapolis. Civic is the largest of more than 70 community theaters in the state, but Dick and other Civic administrators have said the move to Carmel will help make the theater bigger and better than ever.

“The Tarkington is a unique performance facility, providing a proscenium theater at the Center for the Performing Arts complex,” Libman said in a statement. “From a purely functional standpoint, The Tarkington fulfills unmet space needs in the area and offers Civic Theatre a state-of-the-art home. From an ar-

Tarkington authored over 15 novels from 1899 to 1933 and won two Pulitzer Prizes for “The Magnificent Ambersons” (1919) and “Alice Adams” (1922), respectively.

tistic standpoint, the possibilities are endless.

I relish this time in our development as we build an arts hub from the ground up. Great things are happening here.”

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard stated that arts center will be good for this area and the state as a whole.

“The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts will continue to build on Indiana’s rich artistic heritage,” he said in statement. “Productions at The Tarkington will become a major cultural resource for the region. Likewise, The Tarkington will quickly become synonymous with great entertainment. The Palladium and The Tarkington will be two truly magnificent venues.”

Residents of the Center for the Performing Arts include Carmel’s Actors Theatre of Indiana, Carmel Repertory Theatre, Central Indiana Dance Ensemble, the Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre and the Carmel Symphony Orchestra.

“In 1924, Booth Tarkington wrote to Civic Theatre’s publicity manager, saying that he hoped its ‘movement for a playhouse would be successful,’” Dick stated. “Now, more than 85 years later, Civic Theatre and Mr. Tarkington’s wish has come true: Civic has found a theater of its own that, thanks in part to its name, feels like home.”

On June 3, supporters will be among the firsts to get an up-close look as Civic Theatre will host its annual fundraiser in Carmel, adjacent to the construction site of The Tarkington.

Discover our fallen war heroes before it's too late Commentary

By Leslie Webber Recently, HBO aired a miniseries called “The Pacific.” Its focus was the hard-fought battles of Guadalcanal and Peleliu during World War II. The miniseries’ story was based on the accounts of two Marines who shared their experiences in print years after surviving the battles.

It saddens me to think about how rapidly the numbers of World War II veterans are dwindling, taking their stories with them.

My late grandfather, for example, was in the U.S. Navy and fought in the chain of islands spotlighted in the miniseries, and I deeply regret not asking him the right questions and recording his service history for future generations of our family.

The series inspired me to assail my grandmother with a barrage of phone calls asking specific questions about my grandfather’s service. With the little information I have, I started doing research online. I quickly found a reunion Web site set up for my grandfather’s Naval escort ship, the U.S.S. Marcus Island.

I called my grandmother again to tell her what I’d found and to ask for more information,

so I could find my grandfather’s company on the site. The conversation quickly turned teary when she told me how badly my grandfather wanted to attend such a reunion, and he searched for news of one for many years.

My husband and I visited Pearl Harbor and the memorial a few years ago and I was completely overcome with emotion. It’s just difficult for me to imagine the sacrifice those young men made at such a tender age.

Yesterday’s Memorial Day meant so much more to me since I’ve learned more about what our servicemen and women withstood to keep our freedom intact.

To all veterans who might be reading this, know that I am forever grateful for your service and will be thinking of our fallen heroes.

While you are still in that Memorial Day mood, I hope you readers will be, too.

Fairytale of faith Martin family maintains hope and joy despite relentless battle with cancer

By Darla Kinney Scoles Current in Noblesville The first time the Martin family encountered childhood cancer, a whole new world opened up to them. The second time, they lost a son, seven-year-old Nolan.

But they didn’t lose their faith, their hope or even their love of laughter and joy in life.

Now battling cancer for the 12th time, the Cicero family still displays the steadfastness that has defined them from that first cancer encounter to the most recent. The family is currently in Seattle, where Andrea, 22, and Drew, 18, are patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital.

Drew had surgery and chemo last year, but the cancer returned recently, requiring surgery at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital before going to Seattle for chemo. Andrea battled the same cancer as Drew in 2004 and again in 2007. Now diagnosed with leukemia, she is preparing for a bone marrow transplant.

Over the years, life for the Martins has been challenging, yet optimistic. Feeling prompted to enroll at Ball State University to pursue an education degree following son Nolan’s death, Kim Martin was assigned to write a children’s book for a class project. Knowing from experience that no children’s book existed for young cancer patients, she set out writing what would eventually be published as “H Is for Hair Fairy: An Alphabet of Encouragement and Insight for Kids (and Kids at Heart) with Cancer.”

A book with a mission, it has comforted and educated many.

Mr. and Mrs. Hair Fairy, the book’s main characters, visit children the day they lose their hair during chemo, leaving a moneyfilled pouch, the book and a note of encouragement. The nonprofit Hair Fairy Project, raises funds to provide Hair Fairy visits to young cancer patients throughout Indiana. Knowing how

This family photo was taken during spring break when the Martins visited Seattle.

Pictured are (front row, from left) Alaina, Kim (the mother), Lee and Andrea; (back row, from left) Brandon, Ken (the father) and Drew. Brandon and Alaina are fulltime residents, but the rest of the Cicero family is living there temporarily while Drew and Andrea undergo cancer care at the Seattle Children's Hospital.

much this can mean (Nolan, Andrea, Drew and father Ken, who has had three cancer episodes, were all visited) the Project brings joy to the Martin family, too.

“Really, I’ve had a life filled with joy,” Martin said prior to leaving for Seattle. “I have never focused on just the cancer, or let it define our lives. It’s been tough at times, but even that has built our capacity for feeling joy.

“In general I’ve been able to remain positive. I hate the tough part but I love the blessings that come out. You are able to see your children in a way that you would not otherwise see them.

They have taught me much in the way they have handled their adversities. That’s how the Hair Fairy Project came about.”

When the Hair Fairy visited Andrea in 2004, the senior in high school used that money to buy things for several of her friends.

“I watched Andrea be so caring and so giving during such an awful time,” said Martin. “Until then I just hadn’t really thought that much about doing things for others. I was focused on us.

But, I saw the way people reacted to her and the joy she brought to people, and that was motivational to me. I thought if she could do something in her circumstances, then I could in mine.”

Martin was inspired by Andrea’s gesture to bring to life the Hair Fairy Project.

She hopes events like last week’s Awareness Walk in Noblesville will educate people and bring attention to childhood cancer and the Hair Fairy Project. Her mission is to help cancer families thrive – even laugh – by taking a negative experience, such as losing one’s hair, and turning it in to something they could look forward to.

“I want people to realize that these kids are out there, so they will do something to help them and their families,” said Martin.

“It’s not about the money in the pouch; it’s about changing the thoughts of the day. All it takes is the little things.”

Like a visit from a fairy.

Current in Noblesville

What is it ? The Hair Fairy Project brings encouragement, humor and insight to children with cancer on the day they lose their hair. Hair Fairies are like the Tooth Fairy. Mr. & Mrs. Hair Fairy, a loving couple, leave money or a gift, a letter from the Hair Fairy, and the book “H Is for Hair Fairy” under a child’s or young adult’s pillow or in their room on the day he or she loses their hair during chemotherapy treatments.

Who? The project is administered through Child Life Specialists in children’s hospitals and/or through pediatric oncology offices or through volunteers for the Hair Fairy Project at the child’s home depending on the tim of hair loss.

Why? To bring smiles and encouragement to children and young adults living with cancer and its accompanying treatments.

Where? To find out more about the Hair Fairy Project visit www.hairfairy.org. To donate to the Hair Fairy Project make check payable to “The Hair Fairy Fund” and mail to Indiana Members Credit Union, 9710 Butterfly Drive, Noblesville, IN 46060.

Many women experience negative side effects after using antibiotics as a result of the destruction of good bacteria in the digestive system.

Antibiotics do not recognize between good and bad bacteria, and all bacteria are killed off with such treatment. If you have experienced such symptoms, you might want to supplement with probiotics after antibiotic treatment to reestablish your good intestinal flora and restore your system to good health.

Daily consumption of probiotics also increases nutrient absorption and improves vitamin synthesis, digestion, detoxification and protection from toxins. Look for a supplement that provides a full spectrum of beneficial bacteria, grown in a whole-food medium, which in turn will generate superior phytonutrients that support your health.

As with any supplement, it’s best to first check with your physician before beginning a regimen.

Negativity can be positively powerful COMMENTARY

By David Cain Ever strike up a conversation with a stranger? More often than not, the icebreaker is something negative or a criticism. “This wait is so long.” “This airline food is terrible.” We openly share negativity with co-workers, family, friends and perfect strangers. People have a natural tendency to be more interested and aware of the negative versus the positive. It’s true. Misery loves company.

People habitually unite around the negative. It’s more instinctual to discuss negative things than positive ones. Mistakes, failures, myths, threats and other negative things unite. It’s the subject of radio talk shows, newspapers, the nightly news, wars and reality television. Shows about success get less traction compared to shows about misfortune. Even “American Idol” has its largest viewing audience for the early auditions – for the humiliation. People talk more about what is wrong than what is right.

Research also suggests that people are more likely to share criticisms. Upset and frustrated customers, therefore, are often more vocal about their service compared to the happy customer. Someone upset might volunteer his or her misfortune at every opportunity and with great passion, whereas a happy customer shares

it sparingly and only when asked.

Why do we do it? Maybe we want to help others avoid the same pitfalls, so we naturally share negative more than positive. Maybe we just find it more interesting. Maybe our brains are wired to be afraid of failure more than desiring of success. Maybe we’re just self-centered and we like to feel better about ourselves through the failure of others. Maybe it’s all these reasons. More people would read an article titled “The Five Threats Facing Your Business’ compared to “Five Lessons for Success.” Your audience would be larger for “10 Common Mistakes” compared to “10 Tips for Success.”

Does your marketing and communication reflect the natural tendency of people to talk about something negative? Your customers might be more influenced by the story of a customer who was unhappy and whose opinion you changed than the story of a client that was always happy. Don’t be afraid to harness the power of the negative. Negativity can be positively powerful.

COMMENTARY

By Chris Lloyd The worst thing about sitting through “Alice in Wonderland” is the dawning realization that director Tim Burton, once one of the most original voices in Hollywood, has become king of the crappy remakes.

The movie-going public simply did not need a new version of “Planet of the Apes” or “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” and the same goes for “Alice.”

Festooned with computer-generated critters and the now-obligatory kooky Johnny Depp performance, “Alice” is essentially a sequel to the original Lewis Carroll stories. Alice (Mia Wasikowska), now a willful teen, refuses an arranged marriage to a wealthy suitor for a return trip to Wonderland.

It seems in her absence the Red Queen

(Helena Bonham Carter, her head ballooned

by CG puffery) has usurped the throne of the White Queen (Anne Hathaway) and is lopping off heads at a record pace.

Depp plays the Mad Hatter, bit player in the Carroll books but now Alice’s best friend/muse.

It’s a performance steeped in its own weird sauce, a spray of sibilant nonsense and rousing Braveheart-esque speeches.

In the unholy and wholly unnecessary matrimony between Tim Burton and “Alice,” it’s clear that originality doesn’t live here anymore.

Serve a slice of history: a crowd-pleasing cheesecake COMMENTARY

By Molly Herner Most of us think of cheesecake at that typical New York slab topped with cherries and whipped cream. It’s an image that is the culmination of thousands of years of delicious history.

Cheesecake has been a celebrated dessert dating back to the early Roman Empire. Some of the earliest recorded Roman annuls mention “cheesecake” as both a savory appetizer pie and a dessert. The cheesecake described by early Roman Emperor Cato the Elder was baked and served as part of religious rites and feasts.

Cocktail

SPARKLING PEAR AND CRANBERRY COCKTAIL Ingredients: • 2 tbsp. dry cranberries • 1/2 cup organic pear nectar • 32 oz. Moscato d’Asti wine • 8 small sprigs fresh rosemary

Today, cheesecake is served for holidays ranging from Thanksgiving to Jewish holidays, like Shavout. This versatile cake is an overall crowd pleaser and has survived the ages as such.

Serve this cake and its rich history at your next dinner party and get creative with it. The sky is the limit with this basic cheesecake recipe.

Molly Herner, is the baker/pastry chef at Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano.

You may email her at odette05@ aol.com.

Hostess at O’Charley’s Where do you like to eat? “Olive Garden.”

cheesecake Ingredients: (For filling) • 24 ounces cream cheese • 1 cup sugar • 1 tablespoon lemon zest • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 5 eggs, separated • 1/4 cup heavy cream • 2 tablespoons sugar (For crust) • Shortening • Flour • Graham crackers or biscotti crushed and mixed with melted butter and a bit of sugar Directions: 1. Grease a spring form pan with shortening and dust with flour, then line the bottom with parchment paper.

2. Crush the biscotti or graham cracker and mix with melted butter and a bit of granulated sugar until it sticks and forms loose balls in your fist.

3. Line the bottom of the spring form pan with the crumb crust of desired thickness and pack it down.

4. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes and then let cool.

5. For filling, cream 24 ounces of cream cheese with 1 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1 tablespoon of grated lemon zest. At this stage you could add chocolate chips, berries or caramel also if you are flavoring the cake.

6. Add 5 egg yolks one at a time and heavy cream until blended.

Where I Dine

What do you like to order there? “Chicken alfredo or the fettuccini alfredo.”

Why do you like Olive Garden? “I love the Italian feel of it, from the music to the birthday song they sing. It’s all great!”

13285 Tegler Drive, Noblesville (317) 770-6091

7. In a separate bowl whip egg whites and 2 tablespoons of sugar until it forms soft peaks and fold into the cream cheese mixture.

8. Pour the filling into the spring form pan and line the outside of the pan with tin foil. Be sure to cover the whole pan so there are no openings.

9. Place the cake in a large baking pan with water filled half of the way up. This helps keep the cake moist and the top from cracking.

10. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour, 15 minutes.

If the top of the cake starts to brown too deeply, cover it with tin foil and bake the rest of the way.

11. Let the cake cool completely before serving with the topping of your choice.

Directions: 1. Put cranberries in a small bowl; add 2 tbsp. of warm water. Soak until cool; about 15 minutes. Drain, pat dry, and refrigerate until serving.

2. Divide pear nectar evenly among eight tall champagne glasses. Add cranberries, then gently pour the Moscato d’Asti into the glasses. Garnish each with a rosemary sprig.

“Cook good, serve generously, price modestly, people will come!” That’s the motto of Louis Shapiro, who started a legacy back in 1905. Owned and operated by the fourth generation of immigrant Shapiros, the spacious kosher cafeteria still bakes its own bread and quarters its own pickles daily. An updated version of the downtown classic, Shapiro’s in Carmel offers the same great deli cuisine in a fancier environment. For lunch, dig into a 6-inch thick corned beef sandwich on massive slices of rye bread, or a hearty stuffed pepper. Traditional matzo ball soup and cabbage borscht are customer favorites.

Accompany the meal, whatever it is, with a crispy potato pancake, served with sour cream and applesauce. And afterward, indulge in a delicious slice of chocolate silk or key lime pie.

‘Guys

and Dolls’: a musical made for a music teacher

By Zach Dunkin Current in Noblesville Frank Loesser wrote some memorable songs for the 1950 musical “Guys and Dolls” -- “A Bushel and a Peck,” “Luck be a Lady,” “Sit Down, You’re Rockin’ the Boat,” to name a few. And if you didn’t sing them the way he believed they should be sung, the illtempered Loesser just might slap you in the face.

He did exactly that to Isabel Bigley, who played Miss Sarah Brown in the musical fable and won a Tony despite Loesser’s meltdown.

But Belfry Theatre director Elaine Wagner, who is directing “Guys and Dolls” when it opens June 4 at the community playhouse on Greenfield Avenue, would never physically assault any of her cast members. She adores them too much.

“I have an outstanding cast and wonderful support people,” said Wagner, who has directed at least one Belfry production for the last eight consecutive seasons. “There is so much music in this show – it’s very pleasing to an audience because of that – and I have some surprisingly wonderful singers to work with.

“They love the show, and that’s why they wanted to be in it. It’s a classic.”

The first Broadway production directed by George S. Kaufman won five Tony Awards, including best musical. A 1992 revival starring Nathan Lane won four, including best revival. It also was turned into a film in 1955, and starred Marlon Brando, Jean Simmons, Frank Sinatra and Vivian Blaine.

The musical involves a group of gamblers who are depending on Nathan Detroit (played here by Mark Tumey) to set up the latest incarnation of “The Oldest Established Permanent Floating Crap Game in New York.” Nathan, however, is short the essential $1,000 security deposit. That’s when he bets Sky Masterson

'Guys and dolls' Credits: Story by Damon Runyon, music and lyrics by Frank Loesser and book by Jo Swerling and Abe Burrows.

Where: The Belfry, 10690 Greenfield Ave., Noblesville.

When: 8 p.m. June 4, 5, 11, 12, 18 and 19 and 2 p.m. June 12, 13, 19 and 20.

Tickets: $15 for adults and $12 for ages 12 and younger.

Reservations are required by calling (317) 773-1085.

(Clint Pridgen) a grand that he can’t convince pious mission operator Sarah Brown (Brenna Campbell) to go with him to Havana.

Wagner, a longtime voice and piano teacher, actually played was one of the “Hot Box” chorus girls in the Belfry’s first production of “Guys and Dolls” 40 years ago when the community

group performed at Noblesville High School.

In 2008, the Encore Association of 11 Central Indiana community theater groups awarded Wagner the E. Edward Green Award for her 25 years of outstanding continuous dedicated service to community theater.

“I’ve been at this a long time,” she said, declining to reveal her age.

Because of the lengthy song list in “Guys and Dolls” – 18 of them -- Wagner began rehearsals off-site for this show in early April, while the Belfry stage was filled with the production of “You Can’t Take it with You,” which ran April 9-25.

“It’s not unusual to have your cast learn the music and dances before you put the dialogue in and try to block the show,” said Wagner. “ Of all the shows I’ve done, this has more musical and dance to it than any of them.”

And she didn’t have to bully anyone into doing them the right way.

What fare is fair – and cheapest? Rick knows COMMENTARY

By Tracy Line Purchasing flight tickets is no easy feat. Prices vary from week to week, day to day and even hour to hour. For many of us, knowing when to purchase tickets feels a bit like Russian roulette.

Yet, there are ways to ensure you’re getting a fair ticket price. Rick Seaney, CEO of Fare Compare, a Web site (www.farecompare.com) dedicated to helping consumers find cheap airfares, can help.

Here are tips: • When to travel: Everything from day to distance to flight time affects ticket prices. If you can be flexible, you’ll pay less. Fare Compare reports that the cheapest flights are those departing on Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. In addition, early flights are cheaper than mid-day.

• When to shop: Seaney says airlines manage revenue in three-month intervals. Therefore, the best rates for flights begin to appear three months prior to departure. This is the time to watch for sales and compare prices. Fare Compare and other sites offers free fare alerts,

email messages alerting you of any changes in flight prices to your desired destination.

• When to book: According to Seaney, airline sales often start on Monday mornings. By Tuesday, competitors lower their rates to compete. Thus, the maximum number of cheap domestic flights culminates on Tuesdays at 3 p.m. Eastern Time. Prices go back up on Thursday, and will be the highest on Saturday.

• Extra charges: Surcharges are additional fees tacked on to the base flight price. Charges vary by airline and date.

Compare the final ticket prices, not the advertised rates. In addition, baggage fees vary by airline (rates run around $25 for the first bag, even more for the second). Be sure to factor in these fees as you calculate your total cost.

Do your homework and you can save.

Memorial Day a day of prayer for our troops and their families Commentary

By Janna Lynas My legs are stiff like cement. It’s hard to breathe. Am I really about to jump? What is my family doing right now? One step out and everything is frozen except the air rushing past my helmet and gun and the earth getting closer with each second that passes.

I pull my cord and it is quieter, a gracious peacefulness as I approach a bloody battle. One thought repeats in my mind as I prepare to hit the ground: make it out alive.

I have no idea the accuracy of these questions or thoughts. I can only imagine these might have been thoughts going through my grandfather’s mind as he jumped from a plane over New Guinea during World War II. A member of the 501st Parachute Battalion Company B, my grandfather was among the first brave men who courageously jumped from airplanes and parachuted directly into enemy territory, many killed before they had a chance to cut loose from their chutes. He only briefly talked about his experiences during this war, decades later much too painful to recall.

Because he couldn’t talk about it, my family never talked about it. Our Memorial Day’s were spent together, barbecuing like many do. But among the games and laughter there was a quietness and sense of grief present.

On Memorial Day we celebrate the freedom we are blessed with today because of the tremendous sacrifice of thousands. We pray for our troops all around the world. Pray for their families. Pray for their safety and for God’s hand of protection to cover them. Pray for the salvation of those who don’t yet trust Jesus with their lives and for those who do to be emboldened by the Holy Spirit to share their faith.

My grandpa’s story ends wonderfully. After years of fighting, he accepted the gift of Christ’s freedom at the age of 91. Less than a year later, he died, forever at peace.

Using the correct tools makes a big difference in genealogical search

Tom Wood Tom Wood

can easily be led on inadvertent goose-chases and end up with lots of cool stuff, but not the information or documentation one set out for in the first place.

Trust me, I know.

For example, according to the table, if I am looking for the documentation of a family member’s divorce, I should look first to the government – specifically court records – in my search.

Second and third sources would be newspaper articles and vital records.

Additionally, great-great-grandpa’s occupation would most likely be found in a census, city directory, or emigration and immigration records.

To find the record celection table, begin with a Google search and you will find a few slightly different versions at a variety of Web sources.

Caring for the family tree just got much easier.

COMMENTARY

By Darla Kinney Scoles As I was working to help keep Noblesville beautiful a few weeks ago I thought a good bit about how having the right tools for a job is critical. Assigned to clean up a fence row, our group could have really used some snips and a gas-powered trimmer.

The day was a success, though, with many hands and moderate muscles getting the job done to the satisfaction of all. But the work was slow, and we could have accomplished more with less effort.

The same is true when it comes to work of a family history nature. There are many tools for the job, and knowing which one to use when is key information.

Enter the “record selection table.” This handy-dandy tool is now my new best friend.

Basically a chart used to determine which public records are most useful in finding information about departed ancestors, the table helps researchers make the most effective use of their time and efforts.

With a sometimes overwhelming selection of tips, tools, sites, and sundry searches, one

To my mom, ‘husky’ is a dirty word COMMENTARY

By Mike Redmond I’ve been on something of a shopping spree lately. It seems I’ve turned into a clothes horse.

Clydesdale, when you look at the sizes.

This happens to me every few years. Truth be told, these are the first new duds I’ve bought in about seven years. I’ve been living mostly in jeans and T-shirts during that time, and while that’s fine, a fellow does need a little diversity in his wardrobe. Shirts with collars, for example.

Just kidding. I owned some nice clothes too.

I had suits and jackets and even a couple of tuxedos hanging in the closet. Truth be told, I once was known as something of a snappy dresser.

But, as I said, that was seven or more years ago and you know what happens in seven years: Clothes go out of fashion, and what was once the height of style becomes a clown suit. Watch a repeat of “Soul Train” if you don’t believe me.

And then there’s gravity.

I personally believe I am more susceptible than most to gravitational pull. This is why my body (a.) is sinking slowly toward my feet, (2.) weighs so much and (also) is so hard to drag up

the stairs unless I first take a nap in the living room before going to bed.

Anyway, the time came to buy clothes and I discovered a few things.

For example, guys my size have a lot more choices than they used to, and some pretty vivid ones at that. I saw a yellow suit in The Fashion Store For Big And Beastly Men that 20 years ago would have been mistaken for a lost parade balloon. And I saw a striped one that looked like it should have come with a whistle.

Then I turned a corner and saw the Hawaiian shirts. Let’s just say it was a good thing I hadn’t eaten.

I tend to be rather conservative in my clothing choices. For this you may credit my mother, who implanted long ago the idea that fashionable clothes were for thin people, not me. I can still remember the heartbreak in her voice when she told the saleslady I needed the “husky” jeans. You would have thought “husky” was another way to say “criminal.”

Years later, I was shopping with a girlfriend and saw a double breasted suit I liked but did not buy. The girlfriend asked why. I told her I

could hear my mother’s voice saying, “You can’t wear a double-breasted suit. Your butt’s too big.”

The girlfriend thought I was being ridiculous so when we got to my place I had her listen on the extension while I called Mom. “Saw a suit I liked today,” I told Mom. “Double breasted.”

Mom didn’t miss a beat. “You can’t wear a double-breasted,” she announced. And then we heard the sound of the extension phone hitting the floor.

I’ve told the same story to numerous therapists.

But I’m over it now. I go by the maxim learned in Mrs. Grabill’s Latin class: “Vestis virum reddit.” Clothes make the man. When I dress well, I feel good. Powerful. In control. And that’s really what the new clothes are all about – feeling good, powerful and in control.

I even bought a double-breasted blazer.

Don’t tell Mom. Mike Redmond is an author, journalist, humorist and speaker. Write him at mike@ mikeredmondonline.com or P.O. Box 44385, Indianapolis, IN 46244.

I told her I could hear my mother’s voice saying, “You can’t wear a double-breasted suit. Your butt’s too big.”
