PuccinisPizzaPasta.com State officials reveal data trends during the pandemic

By Jarred Meeks • jarred@youarecurrent.com After Memorial Day weekend, state officials underscored the importance of continued social distancing as the state attempts to move forward with its fivestage plan to reopen the economy.

PANDEMIC “I saw reports from around Indiana and the rest of the country this weekend of people who were packed in pools or at restaurants, shoulder-to-shoulder, and without wearing masks, not practicing social distancing,” Indiana State Health Commissioner Dr. Kristina Box said during a May 27 virtual press briefing. “We do not want to see that number of cases spike because people got tired of these precautions and treated this as an unofficial start to summer and business as usual. These are not business-as-usual times. The threat from COVID-19 is still very real, and we need to do all we can to prevent the spread of this disease.

“That may mean wearing a mask if you’re at the pool, and you’re not in the water. It may be inconvenient, but I know that these steps can save lives.”

Box said the state wants to gain more insight regarding the impact of the new coronavirus in Indiana after the second round of testing by the IUPUI Richard M. Fairbanks School of Public Health study, which was scheduled to begin June 3. The random-sample testing study will give state officials a representative snapshot of virus spread that can be used to scientifically estimate the virus’ impact on the entire state without the need to test all residents.

Preliminary results from the study’s first wave, completed in early May, found 2.8 percent of Indiana residents have or have had the virus and that the majority of its spread in the state occurred through shared housing and not in the community.

As of May 27, the Indiana State Dept. of Health reported 32,437 total Indiana residents were known to have the virus. More than 41 percent of ICU beds and nearly 82 percent of ventilators were available.

A total of 1,871 Hoosiers were confirmed to have died from COVID-19. Another 159 probable deaths have been reported based on clinical diagnoses in patients for whom no positive test is on record. And 235,333 tests had been reported to the ISDH. “This is a silent spread, and it can silently kill,” Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb said.

“We have to understand that folks can be asymptomatic and not know that they are passing this on, not intentionally, for sure. But when you get into those large, confined gathering areas, that’s where we tend to see the spread occur. I would just continue to appeal to folks’ sense of civic duty, not just their personal responsibility, but how their liberty can impact someone else’s, and that’s the bottom line. We are trying to get through this.”

Unemployment On May 22, state officials revealed Indiana’s unemployment rate had increased to 16.9 percent in April. Previously, it was reported an unemployment rate of 3.2 percent in March. The U.S. unemployment rate was 14.7 percent in April.

“This is the highest rate we’ve seen in Indiana since 1982, where it stood at 12.6 percent,” Indiana Dept. of Workforce Development Commissioner Fred Payne said.

To our valued readers: We hope you are well and will continue to be well.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues to have negative a impact on businesses across the nation and around the world. Current Publishing is in that group.

Difficult decisions continue to be made by ownership and the boards of directors, some hour by hour, and it still is with unyielding earnestness, empathy and respect that we inform you of important measures we have undertaken to secure the long-term viability of Current in Noblesville.

What began with the editions of April 7 and is expected to last up to and including the editions of June 30, Current will divide its total circulation to Noblesville by approximately 25 percent. That is, in a four-week month, a different quadrant of the community each week will receive Current by mail, and a supply of the editions will be made available at locations each week, including: • Broccoli Bill’s: 15009 N. Gray Rd. Hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

Phone number is 317-580-1517.

• CVS Pharmacy: 14575 Mundy Rd. Hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Phone number is 317-770-5275.

• Noble Coffee & Tea: 933 Logan St. Be sure to place the order via phone or online, as customers are not allowed in the building.

Hours of operation are 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Monday through Saturday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. The phone number is 317-7730339 and the website for online ordering is toasttab.com/noblecoffee.

In addition, our practice of making the newspapers available in their entirety online will not change.

Again, as of this writing, this still is an interim measure until we can gain more clarity as the pandemic restrictions fade.

Would you please support us and our advertisers as we continue to be the source for hyper-local news?

Thank you for your understanding.

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

Election results to be viewed at fairgrounds news@currentnoblesville.com Hamilton County election results are typically viewed at the Hamilton County Government & Judicial Center, but COUNTY due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the viewings will move to the Hamilton County Fairgrounds to ensure proper social distancing.

Voting will run from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. June 2. Public viewing will take place in Halls A and B of the Exhibit Building, and doors open at 6 p.m. Enter the building through the southeast door. Parking lot signage will direct the public to the correct entrance.

Display screens will be placed at each end of the halls. Several round tables and properly spaced chairs will be placed as well.

Because there will be a large volume of absentee ballots, it is possible counting votes will take several days. Workers will count absentee ballots from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. June 2. They will then count election day votes as election inspectors start delivering tally cards from polling locations.

“If we still have absentee ballots left to count, we’ll complete those Wednesday,” County Clerk Kathy Williams stated. “We will reopen Halls A and B Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. until 5 p.m., if necessary. If mail-in ballot processing carries over to Thursday, the public watch area will reopen again at 8:30 a.m.”

Hamilton County has until noon June 12 to certify election results. For more, visit hamiltoncounty.in.gov/222/ Current-Election-Information.

McGill’s Big Three for mobility and stability Commentary by Seth Tucker It is important to maintain a balance of mobility and stability throughout the body, depending on which part you FITNESS are addressing. The spine is interesting, as the upper section is better for flexion and extension that is, curling forward or arching back, while the lower portion is better for stabilizing while allowing for rotational movement.

This is well illustrated during a squat when it is important for the upper back to adequately extend or arch back to prevent your shoulders from rounding forward and your upper body from collapsing in. While at the same time your low back, or lumbar spine, should maintain a stable, neutral position throughout the squat. It also is necessary to be able to perform some level of flexion and extension through the low back, and there are several exercises that demand this, especially in a practice like yoga.

When it comes to improving stability in the spine, renowned back expert Dr. Stuart McGill has established practical solutions and exercises to protect and stabilize the spine during athletic movements or simply

day-to-day life. The McGill Big Three is a set of three exercises designed to improve stability through the spine for any activities that put load through the back, whether that’s picking up the laundry or squatting twice your bodyweight.

Each movement should be done as three pyramid sets, which consist of a descending repetition count, adjusted for experience level. For example, one set of eight, one set of six and one set of four repetitions.

The McGill Curl-Up Lay on your back with one leg extended and one leg bent at the knee with your foot on the floor. Place both hands under the small of your back to maintain a slight natural arch and sense when you are beginning to round your back. Raise your head slightly off the ground while engaging your abdominal muscles as though you are preparing for a blow to the stomach. This is not a crunch but simply lifting your head an inch or two while still keeping your face toward the ceiling. Hold this position for 10 seconds, then lower your head back to the ground and repeat for reps.

Noblesville Schools recognized as PLTW Distinguished School — Noblesville Schools recently announced that Noblesville High School has been nationally recognized for the third year in a row as a Project Lead the Way Distinguished School for providing broad access to transformative Science, Technology, Engineering and Math learning opportunities for students.

Proactive public safety New paramedicine program forms in Noblesville From left, Tony Murray, Nathan Young and Kevin Livingston are community resource paramedics as part of the NobleAct paramedicine program. (Submitted photo)

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com An announcement during Noblesville’s State of the City address in February recently came to fruition. NobleAct, a mental health crisis COVER STORY and substance abuse response program, was announced in mid-April. The program will utilize mental health police officers, community paramedics and mental health clinicians to provide linkage to community services and divert those in crisis from the Jensen criminal justice system.

“We announced it in February at the State of the City, and it formed out of a lot of conversations during the transition time last year,” Mayor Chris Jensen said. “The idea of paramedicine kept coming up. It’s really a concept around being proactive in the approach to public safety. It’s using community data. It’s using different programs that take a look at high-risk individuals.”

The NobleAct paramedicine program could benefit seniors who are more likely to fall in their homes, and it also could benefit those who struggle with substance abuse and the mental health crisis.

“If we can take a proactive approach to public safety to work and build relationships with high-risk individuals and high-frequency users of 911, we can actually not only keep the community safer, but long-term reduce the cost of public safety by not having as many 911 calls,” Jensen said. “By not sending police, fire, EMS and everybody to the scene,

if we can get ahead of that and work with high-risk individuals, it can reduce long-term budgetary costs of public safety in the city.”

Jensen said 47 to 48 percent of the city’s annual $7 million budget goes to public safety.

Noblesville Police Dept. officer Ben Lugar, a former school resource officer at Noble Crossing Elementary, was trained to be the first NobleAct officer.

“He’s helping us launch this program, and he will be (on) the front lines on this with targeting specific needs within the community to get in front of (the goals),” Lugar Jensen said. “We also promoted three firefighters to community paramedics. They are going to work in conjunction with Ben Lugar to help develop the program to identify high-risk individuals.”

The three firefighters are Tony Murray, Nathan Young and Kevin Livingston.

Lugar said the COVID-19 pandemic was an appropriate time to launch the NobleAct program and discuss the importance of mental health. NobleAct officers can’t transport patients to a hospital but they are often the first ones on the scene to assess the situation.

“It’ll have several different components, depending on which officer is taking the lead,” Lugar said. “On the fire department side, I know they’ll be doing a lot of things common amongst community paramedicine programs, like checking on fall risks and elder cares and reduce repeat hospitalizations of citizens. They also can be focusing on individuals who have mental health or substance abuse

issues that are regularly utilizing first responders or coming into contact with first responders quite often and direct them to more appropriate community resources.

“To do that, we will be both actively responding to 911 crises and, along with the police and fire department, help direct that individual to that appropriate level of care with the goal if they don’t need to be hospitalized but need connection to outpatient services, we want to be able to provide that there on-scene and also conduct follow-up services.”

AN UNMARKED APPROACH Officer Ben Lugar is operating in his police squad car, but his goal is to change to an unmarked vehicle to minimize the stress and fear associated with a traditional police car.

“Part of the program will be going out and doing follow-ups, and I don’t want them to see a police car out front, which can increase that stress,” Lugar said. “We will probably be using an unmarked police car, and the fire department will have a new community resource paramedic vehicle. (With mental health calls), they are already anxious and on alert. We don’t want to exacerbate that by making it worse.

“We have been studying best practices for those 911 calls and what are the best techniques, which is to not bring in the sirens blazing. How do we deescalate it and better understand the needs of those suffering? Putting them in the back of a squad car might not help their mental state.”

ESSAY

LETTER

Can’t or won’t?

Don’t blame Asian Americans

Commentary by Terry Anker Even as spring cleaning is well underway across this land of ours, so is the perennial challenge of how to adequately find equilibrium in the household division of labor. Laundry, lawn mowing, spider killing, meal preparation, planting and maintaining flowers, child care, earning a living to pay for it all and countless other chores befall us. We prioritize their importance, and our desire to do them, and plod along endeavoring to keep our lives moving in working order and, hopefully, improving.

For some of us living alone, we are singularly responsible. But for many residing as families, each does a bit of every task. Mom works and so does Dad. Dad cooks and so does Mom. And for others, the labor is split along traditional ethnic or gender lines, by aptitude, by physical presence or by interest.

We settle into our duties comfortably, occasionally checking to ensure that we are maintaining parity with our co-inhabitants. Is anyone doing too much or too little? For most, a good-natured equipoise is found. And if someone’s not pulling their weight, a bit of prodding will suffice.

Alas, as with all human endeavor, some of us will seek to game the system. Advice is often shared, a few drinks in, at the bachelor/bachelorette party, such as, “Don’t let your partner know of your laundry acumen, lest you become the household expert — for life!

They suggest, choose those things you want to do and feign incompetence for the rest. The occasional red sweater thrown in with a load of whites not only produces pink sheets but also becomes an antidote for ever having to do the laundry again.

Serious questions about spousal manipulation aside, how much of our lives do we spend imitating ineptitude? How many of our claims of “cannot” are really that we “will not?”

Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@youarecurrent.com.

Nothing to complain about Commentary by Danielle Wilson Current management recently joked that they missed the good old days when readers would complain about my HUMOR column. Alas, with kids mostly grown and out of the house, a job and husband I adore, and an almost total boycott of news outlets, I simply have less opportunity to make bad parenting decisions, judge other soccer moms and care about life as we know it. I also think I’ve become more patient as I approach 50 and understand that on certain things, what I say won’t make a hill-of-beans difference, anyway.

So, yes, I could regale you with my thoughts on Stepford women who relish shaming anyone who’s not breastfeeding, staying at home or cooking only organic food (guilty on all three counts!). Or even better, I could discuss my views on the religious folks who like to badmouth those of us who don’t go to church every Sunday or participate in “small group.” But now that

I’m older and infinitely wiser, I realize supermoms are merely compensating for their own insecurities about motherhood and the devout are just trying to keep me from going to hell.

Of course, if I wanted to really stir the pot, I could go on and on about the nightmare of a president we have, but what good would it do? His supporters are still going to vote for him in November and I’m still going to experience intense stomach pains when I accidentally hear about his latest idiotic tweet (Obama 2020?).

See how much I’ve grown through the years? PTO volunterrorists, anti-vaxxers, global warming deniers ... you do you, people. I’m not one to comment.

Peace out.

Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may email her at info@youarecurrent.com.

Editor, President Trump’s attempt to shift blame for his administration’s tardy response to COVID-19 onto China has resulted in similar-minded politicians following suit. Yes, the virus originated in China, but that was due to the actions of residents of China. Unfortunately, because of Trump’s inflammatory rhetoric, Asian Americans are now the targets of hate and retaliation, when they are as impacted as the rest of us. Blaming an entire race of people is not a recovery strategy, and our fellow citizens in Indiana and the U.S. are suffering because of this misplaced rhetoric.

Here in Indiana, the most ludicrous claim belongs to Carl Brizzi, whose TV ads claim that Chinese nationalists are sneaking across our southern border with the intent of infecting as many people as possible with coronavirus.

Running for public office should include facts and promises of future service, not conspiracy theories. I hope that Hoosiers are not fooled by these political candidates’ absurd claims, and that they vote for a candidate who is grounded in reality and will represent all of us.

Pamela Jackson, Noblesville

When Katy Bird — owner of the new Goddard School in Noblesville on Union Chapel Road — saw her daughter thrive at the Goddard School in Carmel, she wanted other children and families to have that same experience. After spending 10 years at Outside the Box, a non-profit organization, Bird saw that there was a need for a high-quality early childhood education program that provides a play-based learning experience in a nurturing environment. She decided to partner with the on-site owner of the Carmel school, Megan Greek, to expand the brand name in the Indianapolis area.

Virus is nonpartisan; health care system Editor, How did the COVID-19 crisis become so polarizing? As of May 13, Indiana had 25,473 cases and 1,482 deaths.

You might say more people die of heart disease, that’s true. But your right to eat that hamburger that’s high in saturated fat doesn’t infringe on my choice to choose a plant-based diet. Bad example, as factory farms contribute to the rise in antibiotic-resistant bacteria and the demise of our environment, but that’s a letter for a different day. The coronavirus conversation has somehow morphed into a “rights” issue. While so

many are protesting for haircuts and fighting for their right to party, have we lost sight of the reasons for sheltering and masks?

The virus doesn’t care if you’re a Republican or Democrat. Agreed, the economy is important. But can we at least acknowledge that we live in one of the wealthiest countries in the world and we are massively failing at taking care of our people? Crops are going unused while there are shortages in our stores. Huge corporations are taking bailouts in the longest bull market in history. Our corporatized health care system is ill-equipped to pro-

vide basic health care while posting record profits.

While so many want to vilify science, the media, natural rights and compassion itself, I ask you, for what?

Yes, change is hard. My husband lost his job, and I like cutting hair and drinking in bars as much as the next guy. But for now, can we at least heed the recommendations coming from the scientific experts? In order to survive, we must adapt. Can we please learn from our mistakes, respect our neighbors and evolve with a little more humility?

CarDon offers exercise classes

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com CarDon Conditioning’s video exercise program is designed to stretch the brain and body.

FITNESS The weekly program is based at CarDon’s Bell Trace in Bloomington. Bell Trace Life Enrichment Director Julie Hill provides the Mindful Monday videos, sharing mindful motivation and meditation. On Fit Fridays, Bell Trace Fitness Center Director Alyssa Jackson guides viewers through a seated exercise class.

The CarDon & Associates Hamilton County communities are Carmel Health & Living Community, Carmel; Copper Trace, Westfield; Hamilton Trace, Fishers; and Harbour Manor & The Lodge, Noblesville.

The video exercise program is available on CarDon’s Facebook, Twitter and YouTube pages and on cardon.us/ cardon-conditioning.

“Our CarDon Conditioning Program launched at the end of April,” Jackson said.

“The program was designed in light of the stay-at-home orders due to COVID-19. We were seeing seniors not only in our communities, but in the community at-large, who were eager for social interaction as well as missing their routine workouts at local senior centers, the YMCA, etc. The idea was

Bell Trace Fitness Center Director Alyssa Jackson leads a seated exercise class. (Submitted photo)

a direct result of wanting to help seniors fill that void during such a stressful time.

“Participants who are used to in-person classes will recognize most of the moves we do in the video, with maybe a couple of twists and variations to keep them fresh.”

Jackson said the Exercise & Mindfulness classes at Bell Trace are two of the most popular activities.

“When we had to stop holding them in person, that was difficult for our residents,” she said. “When the residents learned we had online classes available, they were so excited. We help them set up bookmarks and links on their devices, and we even have iPads they can borrow. Participation in our community has been great, with several residents completing videos daily.”

Homemade face mask care — Homemade masks are definitely susceptible to viruses.

Wearing a mask reduces the concentration of virus particles that can be inhaled from respiratory droplets, which in turn reduces the transmission of COVID-19, but masks can also carry the virus. The Centers for Disease Control recommends washing your mask at least once a day. Emily de Golian, a board-certified dermatologist at Dermatology Consultants in Georgia, said masks shouldn’t be worn for more than 30 minutes because the dampness from our breath makes it less effective as a barrier against coronavirus transmission. Machine washing is optimal, and the material of your face mask will determine the temperature of the water, at least 140 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also disinfect masks by ironing or putting them in an oven for 20 minutes at about 160 degrees Fahrenheit.

Christian band Holy Fire releases 1st single

Beef & Boards prepares for reopening

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com

Kelly Frank has always been a huge fan of 1980s Christian rock hair bands.

So the Fishers musician MUSIC and his son, Travis Frank, who now lives in Los Angeles, were thrilled to perform as an opening act when bands Stryper, Petra and Whitecross performed in Rocktoberfest Oct. 29, 2016 at Old National Centre in Indianapolis.

That led to more collaboration with some members of those bands, including Petra lead singer John Schlitt. Frank and his son formed a band, Holy Fire. The band released its first single, “Fool Runnin,” in April, which Frank wrote.

“I’m hoping to do a complete album, but it’s taken us a year to get the first song on,” Frank said. “Depending what happens in the next couple months will determine if we ever get a whole album out. For us to continue to record, we’re going to have to go back to Tennessee to finish the rest of the songs.”

Frank said the band intends to make a video, but those plans have been delayed by the coronavirus pandemic. Frank said some songs are already written but the band needs time in the studio.

“I’m taking things one at a time but it’s good to have something released,” Frank said. “I’m pleased with it and I’m ready to do another one.”

John Schlitt sings the lead on “Fool Runnin” and John Lawry plays keyboards and produced the song. Frank and his son sing backup vocals. Lawry is a keyboardist for Petra. Travis Frank and Rex Carroll, who played for Christian rock group Whitecross, plays guitar. Bryan Cooley plays bass guitar. Petra drummer Louie Weaver was mostly used on that as a singer, but Frank said the band uses other drummers. Jason Siefert plays guitar and handles publicity for Holy Fire.

Frank said Holy Fire is ready to do a show, but all the members have their own solo projects.

Schlitt, 70, released a 10-song solo album called “Go” earlier this year. Prior to joining Petra, Schlitt was the lead singer for the

There is a definite buzz around Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre.

After suspending PERFORMANCE performances in mid-March because of gathering restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic, Beef & Boards plans to present “Beehive: The 60s Musical” July 8 to Aug. 9.

“The entire staff has Stark this cooped-up creative energy,” Beef & Boards owner Doug Stark said. “We’ve got to get back to singing and dancing and entertaining.”

Stark said the reopening will be dependent on getting the green light from the guidelines by Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb and Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett.

Beef & Boards has several safety measures planned.

“I have always been a big fan of adapting best practices, adding a few of our own ideas and always try to follow (the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines,” Stark said.

Stark said Beef & Boards has installed UV lighting inside its air handlers to kill any viruses in the air. He said it will filter the air inside with an industrial high-efficiency particulate air filter between shows. Stations with hand sanitizer will be available immediately upon entering.

The most noticeable change is Beef & Boards will not have its customary buffet but will deliver food to the table by wait staff wearing protective gear.

“It’s totally new and uncharted territory for us,” Stark said. “We meet every week to review the new protocols. I know we will have some customers who will miss our buffet; however, we found it will be the safest environment for both our staff and customers to serve plated food.”

Capacity will be limited to 250 people.

Normal capacity is between 425 to 450.

There will be a greater distance between tables.

rock band Head East, best known for the hit “Never Been Any Reason.”

“I want to help John get out and promote his new album,” Frank said. “Stryper is releasing a new album this year. I just love the Christian rock music and sharing with the groups out there hammering away, sharing the gospel and their message.”

Frank said he is looking for a venue where the band can perform a Holy Fire show with Stryper or Petra.

“A lot of these musicians are with different bands,” Frank said. “The Holy Fire aspect of it would be bringing Travis in and we would do an actual show with our stuff. It’s more of trying to get the message out through the Christian musicians.

When we get these guys together, we want to have these tunes that we can get up on stage and do.”

Frank said he would like to hold regular

shows at a venue, perhaps a church, with central Indiana Christian musicians.

“Maybe we would do workshops where musicians can share their craft,” Frank said. “During these crazy times, music is one of those things that can bring people together. We want people to get their message heard and out.”

Frank said Schlitt, who overcame drug issues after leaving Head East and eventually turned to Christian rock, has a powerful message.

“As a band, we want to tap into the testimonies of guys like John Schlitt and myself who are trying to share their message through music,” Frank said. “Our message is geared toward love God and love each other.”

“Fool Runnin” is available on iTunes, Pandora and Spotify. For more, visit kellyandtravisfrank.com.

Fishers District mural installed

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers District patrons will begin to see public art pop up around their favorite businesses and restaurants as developART er Thompson Thrift announced the start of four outdoor mural installations within the mixed-use development.

Fishers District is at 116th Street and IKEA Way. The first mural was painted by Nekoda Witsken, a Fishers resident and a Hamilton Southeastern High School graduate. The mural is at the Verizon Wireless store off IKEA Way and will measure 35 by 9 feet. It’s a bold, colorful design featuring the words “Thanks for Being Weird with Me.” “I grew up in the HSE Schools system, and one main thing about the community that stuck with me is it helped me feel vibrant and spirited and be who I am and embrace eccentricities to come together and make this whole being an artist thing a reality,” Witsken said. “The flower is symbolic of growing through the process, and sunflowers follow the sun with their face, and it’s an entrepreneurial idea – to pivot to what’s happening around you, so I threw it

all together in a wacky, technicolor mural.”

Each of the murals must represent the City of Fishers’ theme of being a smart, vibrant and entrepreneurial city.

Although the project began last year as Thompson Thrift Retail Group began working with Nickel Plate Arts and the Fishers Arts and Cultural Commission to select artists, the installation was pushed to 2020.

Future murals will feature artwork by Dan Toro, from Laramie, Wyo., Megan Jefferson, Indianapolis and Travis Neal, Indianapolis.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 8685 River Crossing Blvd., Indianapolis What to get: Truffle Collection Price: $21 to $86 Anna’s take: There are not many things better than chocolate in this world, and my favorite place to go for chocolates is DeBrand Fine Chocolates. If you’re local and ordering from DeBrand, make sure you select the Indianapolis location and not the store in Fort Wayne. DeBrand has a large selection of high-quality chocolate, but my favorite is the truffle collection. It varies in price depending on the size. The truffles are big, luscious, beautiful pieces of chocolate with varying flavors. My favorite is macadamia hazelnut, but the others also are very good.

A variety of DeBrand Fine Chocolates. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

I also sampled the DeBrand Sundae ($9.25) — a dark chocolate dish, vanilla ice cream and crispy peanut butter and tart raspberry sauce for toppings. I added whole roasted salted almonds, and they were delicious. No matter the season, DeBrand is a delicious place to visit. It is offering takeout orders during the pandemic.

Blueprint for Improvement: Updated ’70s Noblesville basement Commentary by Larry Greene

THE SOLUTION

After

Before

1. Custom maple cabinetry in a beautiful smoke-colored stain was built to surround the TV in the living area as well as to provide functional storage in the office.

2. Oil-rubbed bronze decorative fixtures, including hardware, chandelier and sconces, beautifully complement the cabinetry.

3. In the office, the new built-ins were installed along one wall (they were previously in an L-shape), which provides a more open feel.

4. Luxury vinyl flooring in the gym is highly durable and provides cushion and warmth.

THE CHALLENGE Located in Noblesville’s North Harbour neighborhood, this home was built in 1976.

The homeowners wanted to update the look and feel of their mostly finished basement, which includes a living area, bar and home office. They also wanted to transition a portion of unfinished basement space into a home gym.
