Boudia returns home to big production

By Robert Herrington • robert@yoaurecurrent.com

Noblesville welcomed its “Golden Boy” home with a community celebration and ice-cream social. Inside the Noblesville High School gymnasium, the largest production in the school’s history took place as large video screens rotated photos of Boudia until the lights were turned off and the two-time Olympic medalist at the London Summer Games last month walked out to a standing ovation.

“Seeing this many people turn out and share this moment is absolutely incredible,” said the 10-meter individual platform diving gold medalist.

London wasn’t the only place Boudia picked up impressive awards this summer. During the ceremony, Boudia was presented a proclamation declaring Aug. 26, 2012, as David Boudia Day by Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear. Doug Church, president of the Friends of the Forest Park Aquatic Center, announced the diving complex, where Boudia began his diving career, will be renamed

in his honor. On behalf of Gov. Mitch Daniels, State Rep. Kathy Richardson of Noblesville presented Boudia with the state’s highest honor, the Sagamore of the Wabash award.

Following the awards, Boudia sat joined emcee and WTHR13 news anchor Anne Marie Marie Tiernon to first view a video montage of his Olympic experiences, interviews and return to the states. Boudia explained that in the finals round he was in the zone and had “blinders on” when competing for the gold.

“I put six dives together as best I could,” he said.

Boudia also confirmed that he is looking to possibly make a splash in two sports at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro games.

“I’m thinking about possibly doing some gymnastics. I don’t know, we’ll see,” he said.

While that decision is still years down the road, for now, Boudia has his hands full with schoolwork at Purdue and planning for his October wedding to his college girlfriend Sonnie Brand.

Crosley is a volunteer and Foust is a teacher who works with students in the Noblesville Rain Forest Project. They recently returned from a trip to the Amazon Rain Forest in Peru, which included 60 seventh and eighth grade students, 20 parents, two community volunteers and four teachers. Everyone paid their own way.

Students from Noblesville Middle School make a trip to the rain forest every two years to

learn about the area and provide service projects to residents in need. In their most recent trip, the group helped repair a school building by removing mold and remodeled with mold-resistant paint. They also adopted two schools in the Amazon and supplied them with school supplies.

Funds provided by the Noblesville Lions Club last year helped pay for the paint and personal items for the children such as tooth paste, tooth brushes, socks and hats. The group worked with residents to do the repairs and they got to see how the people are challenged in their everyday lives.

(Strength + Compassion)² Gov. Mitch Daniels talks with State Sen. Luke Kenley of Noblesville. (Photo by Robert Herrington)

Daniels visits Noblesville Chamber

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Gov. Mitch Daniels recapped the highlights of his terms in as during his speech at the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce’s August luncheon at the Mansion at Oak Hill.

Of his achievements, Daniels said he is proud that 55.4 percent of the general fund is dedicated to children – the most of any state. Daniels said that portion of the budget is used on public safety and education, which has seen a 7 percent increase on ISTEP+ scores since 2007 and a 10 percent rise in the high school graduation rate.

During his tenure, Daniels slowed the growth of spending to 1.32 percent – half of the rate of inflation.

“Only a couple of states are more thrifty than we are,� he said. “Government always has a tendency to get too big for its britches, we need to keep government in that sphere and be as good as it can be.�

Indiana has also had a 46 percent state debt reduction in the past eight years and currently has the third lowest debt per capita. The state also has a AAA bond rating for the first time in its history.

Daniels also joked about his next job after his term ends. “A lot of people in the state thought I should be institutionalized for a long time. . . and they got their wish,� he said. “I’m looking forward to telling Kentucky jokes (again). I learned in this job (as governor) I had to stop, which is a shame.�

Stepping outside my comfort zone Commentary by Krista Bocko At my recent high school reunion, I won the unofficial title of “coolest person in the class of ’92.� It was unofficial because there wasn’t actually a title and there wasn’t actually a vote, but I have to admit I kind of basked in the glory of popularity in the eyes of my former classmates for a little bit.

I wasn’t popular in high school. At all. I was shy, awkward and afraid to step outside of my comfort zone. I didn’t want to be like that, but I was, and my holding back wasn’t doing myself or the world any favors. I was determined to work on myself and to bring more of who I was deep down out into the world. I will always be introverted, yes, but now I am also able to speak up and share my worldview and let my passions show. And I realize that’s where the magic is.

I don’t like to hear people say they “just want to be comfortable.� I used to think this myself and it kept me from taking risks, pushing myself and achieving things I surprised even myself about. www.currentnoblesville.com

I thought of all this a couple weeks ago as I danced in my studio’s performance showcase.

I’m amazed at all the women I have met and become friends with who share the same passions and love of dance as I do. I never would have met them if I hadn’t pushed myself outside my comfort zone to go into the studio in the first place. The same goes for them. It was intimidating to take the risk (What am I doing here?). It placed doubt in my mind (What if I fail?), and it was one of the best things I’ve ever done.

All this to say, it’s worth a continual evaluation of your life to constantly see what you’re capable of, what your dreams are and how you can take steps toward making those dreams reality – in essence becoming more of who you really are. The world needs you.

History

In 1860, a two-story brick building was erected with great sacrifice to house the Union High Academy at 434 S. Union St. The first class sessions were held on Jan. 7, 1861. This was one of the first institutions of secondary education in this area. Here young people were educated in a Christian atmosphere with many of the graduates becoming ministers, teachers, doctors, lawyers and leaders. With the establishment of public schools, the enrollment of Union High Academy began to diminish. It appeared that the doors would have to close after 50 years of operation; however, with the help of William M. Smith Union Bible Seminary was founded in May, 1911. In 1980, Union Bible Seminary was moved to a completely interdenominational basis and officially changed to Union Bible College in June 1989.

Noblesville Preservation Alliance presents its 26th annual tour of historic homes

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Life will soon return to a more leisurely pace as it does once every year during the Noblesville Tour of Historic Homes. This year’s tour takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 15 and marks its 26th year supporting the Noblesville Preservation Alliance.

Advance tickets are $10 each (free for children under 12) and are available at Noble Coffee and Tea (933 Logan St.), the Sheriff’s Residence/Hamilton County Historical Society (810 Conner St.), A Corner Cottage (895 Conner St.), Logan Village Mall (977 Logan St.) and Mr. G’s Liquors (2209 E. Conner St.) or online at http://noblesvilletourofhistorichomes.eventbrite.com).

Tickets may be purchased on the day of the tour on the grounds of the Sheriff’s Residence/Hamilton County Historical Society for $12 each.

This year's offerings:

1293 Conner St.

The historical research of this Vernacular-style home has been challenging. Census records show Anne Dunn as one of the original residents (circa late 1800s).

The home was divided into two apartments from the late 1930’s until the late 1970’s – when it was returned to a single family home.

While he has only lived in the house for two and a half years, Fogelsong has done a lot of work in a short amount of time. He added new sunroom windows and a back deck, converted the garage into a “garage bar,” added plantation shutters and remodeled the closets. He and his fiancé plan to remodel the master bath, screen in the back deck, construct a new garage and add/replace hardwood floors.

1296 Conner St.

The Orcutt/Ferraro home was built circa 1896 with William H. Orcutt as the original occupant.

It is a great example of the Four-Square Craftsman style.

This Vernacular style with Italianate Styling home was a rental for many years throughout its history, and was divided into two apartments in the late 1920s.

By the 1990s it had fallen into bad disrepair. Its previous owner rescued it luckily and completely renovated it, turning it back into a one family home. The home even won the NPA “Exterior Rehabilitation Award.” www.currentnoblesville.com

William Ferraro has lived in this home for a year and a half and enjoys the close proximity to downtown. He has added the backyard studio and made many improvements to the landscaping and patio. His favorite feature of the home is the woodwork.

1358 Conner St.

Built around 1892 by William E. and Alice Lowther (at a cost of $1,400), the Lowther/Wofford home is a Queen Anne style beauty.

The stained glass features and decorative exterior trim make up some of the essential elements of this style.

Although not original, the Craftsman style front porch is an alteration frequently found on homes of this age. It was considered and easy way to “update” its look in the early 20th century.

The home was occupied by the Lowthers until 1919 and the Wofford family has lived in the home since January 2011. Although Debbie and Richard don’t currently have children as permanent residents, they enjoy entertaining their four children and six grandchildren when they come to visit. They are most fond of the leaded glass front entry, high ceilings and large French doors throughout the home.

1640 Conner St.

The Wilson/Norton home is a Cape Cod style, circa 1948, first owned by David Wilson. In the early 1960’s the home was sold to the Caca family who maintained ownership for at least the next 30 years.

In October 2010, the Norton family purchased the home and has been hard at work since. Some of the work completed thus far includes moving the kitchen and removing walls to improve layout, a master bedroom and bath addition, a full bath added to the basement and many exterior projects; namely the pergola, shed, landscaping, paint and driveway. John and Laura Norton have two children in college. They most enjoy the open kitchen area, their neighbors and being able to walk to downtown.

1688 Conner St.

The Neal/Nickels home was built circa 1924 by Judge Noel Neal. It is a great example of the Four-Square Craftsman style.

Neal lived in the home until about 1949 with his three daughters and his wife, who taught ballet lessons in the basement. The ballet bars are still on the walls.

In the late 1940s/early ’50s, the home was sold to the McMahon Family. It remained in their possession until the Mike and Beth Current in Noblesville

Henry Flager Train Nickels happily purchased it in 2005. The Nickels family has done some major exterior improvements including removing the screens and replacing the bead board ceiling on the front porch, replacing about 30 windows, adding a fresh coat of paint and a new fence and patio. Interior improvements range from repairing original wood floors, new tile around the fireplace, all new second floor bath, ceiling tiles in the foyer and much more.

123 S. 16th St.

Dr. Dittbrenner, the home’s original resident with his wife, was a prominent local dentist and was also a founder of the Noblesville Boys Club in 1951. The late 1930s home was converted and moved from a Victorian home, which faced Maple Avenue, to Cape Cod-style home that faces 16th Street. Evidence in the basement only hints at the older home’s history.

The Webster’s, who have lived in the house for the past nine years, are very proud of many of the original features and all the hard work they have done on their home. They enjoy the living room mantel, the glass door knobs, the original paned windows, the red oak hardwood floors and the 1950s Chambers kitchen stove. The Webster’s gutted and enlarged the kitchen, converted the garage into a master suite, built a new garage, adapted a breezeway into a sunroom/office and added a “secret garden.”

1254 Maple Ave.

The 1899 home was originally owned by Asa and Hannah Williamson, but has been in family of current homeowners Ray and Sherry Faust since1940.

The Fausts enjoy the front hallway with its staircase and leaded glass and also like the sliding doors and the oak woodwork. The house has some Queen Anne elements, but also has Arts & Crafts features, so the Fausts think it is best called eclectic. The house is currently under renovation. The Fausts have completed new plumbing and wiring, installed a new furnace and air conditioning system, painted and done considerable structural work to the floors.

Choosing the Right CaRe foR a Loved one with dementia

At a Clare Bridge® community, we care for those who have been touched by Alzheimer’s and dementia. With innovative activities, home-like environments For most people, choosing care for a loved one with dementia does not involve a great deal of advance planning. Decisions are often made with a sense of urgency that can lead to a move into a community that may not provide optimal support for the loved one’s needs. But it doesn’t have to be that way.

Start with an accurate diagnoSiS Before determining the appropriate level of care for a loved one with memory challenges, consult with your physician to confirm whether these challenges are part of the normal aging process or something more serious. Warning signs of Alzheimer’s disease may include: difficulty performing familiar tasks; disorientation to time and place; problems with abstract thinking; changes in mood, behavior or personality; and/or loss of initiative, among others.

engage Special expertiSe for Special needS Serving as primary caregiver for a loved one with Alzheimer’s can be difficult and especially painful. It’s important to take their individual needs into account when evaluating options for care. Physical and behavioral needs, as well as life history, each play integral roles.

At Clare Bridge® Carmel, staff members are carefully selected and trained to understand and manage the unique challenges associated with Alzheimer’s and dementia care. Each resident receives an individualized approach, depending on the progression of the disease, and has access to 24-hour nursing services.

“The Clare Bridge concept has evolved over more than 25 years by continually embracing the latest ideas in good Alzheimer’s care practice, coupled with the experience of caring for thousands of individuals with dementia and their families,” says Janice Pegues, Executive Director of Clare Bridge Carmel. “As the only dedicated Alzheimer’s and dementia care community in the area, we understand the importance of creative problem solving when providing dignity and quality of life to individuals with memory loss.”

The Clare Bridge Dining Program, recognized as “Best of the Best” in the industry by the Assisted Living Federation of America (ALFA), is just one example of how Clare Bridge leverages its specialized expertise to enhance residents’ quality of life. This unique program— designed by a team of specialists to help residents enjoy successful dining experiences—offers dementia-friendly menus, individualized dining assistance, a supportive environment and consistent seating arrangements.

Opinion Bittersweet: 25 years for Prevail

Neil Armstrong It is our position that with the passing of Neil Armstrong we have lost a true American hero. The Purdue graduate and first man to walk on the moon passed away on Aug. 25 due to complications from a cardiovascular procedure.

Neil Armstrong’s famous walk on the moon both captivated and inspired a nation. As the world sat glued to its television screens, Armstrong firmly placed himself into history as one of the greatest explorers as he stepped down that ladder and said his famous line. It helped us realize that, with a little teamwork and perseverance, anything is possible.

Even after his last flight on Apollo 11, Armstrong stayed true to his values and did not let his fame become a distraction. He held on to his Indiana roots by staying connected to his alma mater, Purdue University.

Dog day afternoon

Commentary by Terry Anker

Humans have domesticated and kept animals since the earliest times. Then, even as now, we shared our food and domestic arrangements with these furry friends. And they, like us, flourished because of the construct.

Today, cats, dogs and just about every other sort of manageable beast from boa to potbelly can be found alongside Homo sapiens. To be sure, we benefit from the relationship. In fact, many people-serving institutions, from retirement homes, centers for the disabled and even prisons, include pet “therapy” in their work.

Studies show that interaction with animals can bring profound change in the demeanor and, in some cases, the actual intellectual and physical capacity of a person. And dogs have been assisting the blind and those afflicted with seizures for generations. Likewise, many police departments rely heavily on the contribution of their canine counterparts. So what is it that our loyal companions hope to find from us in return?

Sure, it is good to be in the company of the king of the food chain. Our pets, in the best cases, are well-treated members of the family.

They can expect to live long lives secure from the threats that their wild cousins must endure. One is reminded of the great scene from the Disney classic “Lady & the Tramp,” wherein Tramp tries to convince Lady that the undomesticated life is best. Perhaps it is a thinly veil comment at when any of us choose marriage over the single life, but it also gets at the point that the sacrifice of domestication is well compensated.

Yet likewise, alongside many of us, our animals endure the worst of the human condition. Some are beaten. Some are eaten. Yet they stay close as if somehow knowing, even if we humans forget, we are all better and safer for being together.

We knew why we were there – the two of us and our spouses, along with Terry, Carolyn and Pat Anker of Carmel, Erin Heller of Westfield, Amy Frolick of Fishers and Jacque Bilbrey of Noblesville. A week ago, Prevail Inc. celebrated the end of its 25th year of standing in the gap for victims of domestic violence and sexual abuse.

The Renaissance Indianapolis North Hotel in Carmel provided the backdrop for an elegant evening of information and celebration. Current again proudly was a sponsor, and we shall continue to be so until Prevail decides otherwise. It was a bittersweet affair, we all agreed. For all the money raised through silent and live auctions, and the hilarious “hootin’ and hollerin’ ” that went along with the latter, we also watched and listened intently as a father recounted the horror visited upon his then 8-year-old daughter – and why Prevail is, well, Prevail. There weren’t too many dry eyes in the house as this brave soul detailed not only the crime – for which, based on a technicality, there was no punishment – but also the way the staff at Prevail became a fierce protector and a mentor for this little girl, her mom and her dad. Prevail offers free service to Hamilton and surrounding counties – yes, sadly, it does “happen here” – in confidential, supportive and non-judgmental ways. Victims of sexual or otherwise abusive crimes are urged to call Prevail now at 776.3472. Those of us fortunate enough to have not been associated with something so horrific need to do our part. We can donate cash or our time. Simply call Michelle Moen at 773.6942 to learn how. Prevail needs us. Please join us in helping the organization to continue making a difference.

Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share one with you. In Detriot, Mich., It is illegal to let your pig run free unless it has a ring in its nose.

Opinion

A blast from the past

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

I came across this obituary while cleaning out the storage room: Dodge “Big Red” Caravan, 11, of Carmel, returned to her maker Aug. 22 after a long and difficult battle with a slipped transmission. This fiery redhead was born Jan. 1, 1998, to another family, but was adopted by Danielle and “Doo” Wilson on May 23, 2001. A long-time resident of Carmel, Big Red worked in many capacities, most importantly as a conveyor of children. During her short but adventurous life she made road trips to Kentucky, Florida, Illinois, Ohio and South Carolina, as well as hundreds of grocery runs, soccer carpools and furniture hauls. She often sacrificed her pretty gray upholstery and clean shiny windows to entertain Crayola-toting, milkshake-spilling toddlers, and on at least one occasion gave selflessly of her dashboard to provide a makeshift urinal to a wayward bird.

Touching. Never one to conform to society’s expectations of what constitutes beauty, Big Red drove proudly without a driver’s side hubcap for more than a year before her death. She will be remembered fondly for her unique “zoo” aroma, her coordinated door scratches, her coin-filled air vents and her lack of air conditioning.

She celebrated her 100,000 mile mark among family and friends with a tire rotation and an oil change. And last year, she proved that age doesn’t

stvincent.org

matter as she successfully completed a four-hour roundtrip jaunt to Louisville without overheating.

Big Red was preceded in death by Volkswagen Jetta, Toyota “Rav Rav” Rav 4, Ford Taurus and Chrysler Pacifica. Though she never married or had little mini-vans of her own, Big Red was cherished by many. She is survived by her grieving parents, Danielle and Doo; her faithful riders, Geoffrey, Andrew, Corinne and Madelaine Wilson; two nondescript siblings, Dodge “Dad’s Car” Caravan and Honda “No Nickname Yet” Accord; and a horde of saddened passengers, young and old alike.

There will be no visitation. A private cremation service will be held at the end of September. The family would like to express their deepest appreciation to President Barack Obama and his timely Cash for Clunkers Program. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to your local Tire Barn.

Fair parting, Big Red! May you find peace (and a hubcap) as you drive along that heavenly highway to Scrapville. You are already deeply missed. And though you have been replaced by a silvery younger model with a black interior, you will never be forgotten. So true. Peace out.

Humor

In pursuit of watermelon Commentary by Mike Redmond I’ve gathered you here today to discuss an item of grave importance, something that has been on the minds of many during these troubled times; an issue so great that it may indeed have a direct bearing on life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness: How to pick a ripe watermelon.

Ok, life and liberty probably aren’t at stake here, although you could make an argument that a really good watermelon is included in the pursuit of happiness.

I get asked about this all the time. I don’t know why. I guess there’s something about me that says, “Here’s a man who knows his watermelons.” Probably because I look like I swallowed one.

I know three basic Watermelon Selection Protocols: The Thump, the Crack and the Spot Check.

My dad believed strongly in the Thump method. He would go through an entire bin of Charleston Grays, rapping them all with his knuckles until he found one that sounded just the right note – a slightly hollow B-flat. Which, coincidentally, was the same note sounded when he used the Thump Technique on my skull.

I have tried this method, but I have to thump my head first to get the right note, and after two

Photoshop for

or three tries I have a headache and don’t want watermelon anymore.

My brother uses the Crack method. You lean on the watermelon and if it makes a quiet cracking sound, it’s ready. You have to be careful about this one. A loud cracking sound means you leaned too hard and you’re buying that melon whether you want it or not.

This leaves the Spot Check method. You turn the melon over and look for the spot where it sat on the ground. If it’s white, don’t buy it. If it’s yellow, do. If there is no spot, put down the eggplant and get your eyes tested.

I’ve decided to go with the “What The Heck” method. You pull one out of the bin and say “What the heck, maybe it’ll be ripe.” By my reckoning, you have just as good a chance this way as you do with thumping, cracking and checking, and as a bonus, it turns a watermelon into a Christmas present. You never really know what’s inside until you open it. It might be a wonderful surprise, or it might be socks and underwear. You take your chances. And if you hit the jackpot, a good watermelon is well worth the purfuit.

The Civic Theatre brings ‘A Chorus Line’ to the Tarkington

“Trouble Man” by T.I. – In stores and available for download Tuesday, the eigth studio album from hip hop recording artist T.I. features the singles “Love This Life,” “Go Get It” and “Ball.”

By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com The Civic Theatre’s 2012 – 2013 season kicks off Friday with a true Broadway classic, “A Chorus Line.” Originally produced in 1975, the show was a critical and box office hit that went on to become the sixth longest-running Broadway show in history.

Telling the story of a group of dancers auditioning for spots on a chorus line, it is clear to see why guest director Ron Morgan and producer Michael Lasley would have Lasley an interest in putting on the show.

“For a lot of us in my generation, this is one of the shows, if not the show, that made us want to do this,” said Lasley, gesturing around the theater.

Morgan “Although I feel like there are many new inspirations for young performers, I think that the show still carries all of the inspiration it always has,” said Morgan.

The inspiration seems to also have found its way into the cast who appear genuinely interested in telling a story that, in some ways, mimics their own lives.

“The actors are excited about telling a real story, which they can relate to,” said Morgan.

“They are really honored to be a part of this show.”

As a result of “A Chorus Line” taking place www.currentnoblesville.com

almost entirely within a dance audition, there is very little in the way of a traditional set or scene changes. While this may seem like it would make the show technically simpler, Lasley and Morgan have found that they have simply needed to work harder on the technical aspects that are present such as lighting and sound.

As a result of the size of the Tarkington’s stage, the Civic’s production of the show will actually be somewhat larger than the original Broadway performance. The main set consists of multiple 24-foot, three-sided periactoids that rotate, allowing the entire scene to be changed with the turn of a backstage crank. With a black side, a mirrored side and a side saved for the show’s finale, the periactoids make for quite an impressive backdrop almost double the size of a standard “Chorus Line” production.

Beyond the unique background, Morgan and Lasley are quite proud of what they have been able to create within the Center’s cutting-edge facility.

“A big star of our show is the lighting. It’s just so important that the lights tell a great

story, especially in a show with as little set as this. Lighting has seen a number of big technical improvements since the show was originally conceived,” said Morgan.

“We are pushing the limits of the sound system as well,” said Lasley. “The orchestra will be covered and piped in through the sound system to really create the feeling of being inside the audition space, where there wouldn’t be a full orchestra.”

With a number of professional and concert dancers in the cast, Morgan’s extensive choreography background and the show’s strong technical aspects, “A Chorus Line” promises to be an impressive display of Community Theater on a scale larger than the original.

“When a theater can pull off ‘A Chorus Line’ and do it well,” said Morgan, “that’s the time to do it.”

The Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre will be presenting “A Chorus Line” Sept. 7 through Sept. 22. Tickets are available now at thecenterfortheperformingarts. org or by calling 843-3800.

By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com This Friday and Saturday, Carmel’s Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church will play host to the 39th annual Indianapolis Greek Festival.

Dean Antonopoulos, the festival’s vice president, has been involved with the event for nearly 20 years.

“The first event was held in 1974, and our purpose at that time was to share our Christian and Hellenic traditions as well as creating a fundraiser for the parish,” said Antonopoulos.

While food has always been a primary aspect of the festival, organizers this year are hoping to raise the level of cuisine available to include more than the standard festival food stands.

“This year we are introducing restaurantstyle gyros carved directly from the spit and a dedicated sit-in dinner area that includes Greek lamb and chicken, along with a much-improved Greek wine selection that was given to us by a sommelier,” said Antonopoulos.

In addition to the cuisine, traditional Greek music and dance is another focus of the festival.

Kosta and the Wave, an all Greek band, will perform traditional favorites both days of the festival. All of the Holy Trinity Hellenic Dance Troupes will be performing alongside the band.

The troupes range in age from pre-elementary children just beginning to dance all the way to

experienced adults.

“When we moved to Carmel in 2009, our first year had (an attendance of ) more than 16,000. The last two years, we’ve had rain on one of our days of operation which diminished attendance considerably. However, we are a ‘rain or shine’ event so we can still cater to our faithful patrons,” said Antonopoulos.

The Indianapolis Greek Festival has partnered with Indy Crop Walk to offer free admission on Saturday from noon to 4 p.m. for each person donating at least three canned goods.

NIGHT & DAY

Dining

Preparing for the season August is here. It’s been months since you’ve thought about tailgating, hasn’t it? There were things that came to mind at the end of last season that you meant to do, but now the days have passed by and you don’t even remember what they were. Fear not! Here are simple ideas to get you started: • Make a list of your equipment. There will be tables, chairs, tents, grills, coolers, flags and much more.

• Get this equipment out of storage and check each piece for cleanliness, wear and tear and its importance in your tailgate set-up.

• Is there something you need to replace or even eliminate?

• Is there a new gadget on the market that is better than what you’re using?

• Check for end-of-summer bargains online and in the sale tabloids. This time of year, cookout and camping gear generally goes on season-ending sales.

• Get out the schedule for home games and check the times. 8 p.m. and noon starts may require entirely different menus.

• Contact your tailgating companions to get their thoughts.

• Start planning the menu for the first game.

This week’s recipe is pasta salad which is good for early season, warm-weather tailgating. This pasta has a bite from the ranch dip, but it won’t overpower your main courses like sausage, burgers or chicken.

Ingredients: One package of ranch flavor party dip, 1 cup of sour cream, 1 cup of milk, 1 pound of your favorite pasta, 3 cups assorted veggies, 1 cup of large pitted olives, 1/4 cup crisp chopped bacon pieces Preparation: Prepare the party dip per directions with a wire whisk. Let the mixture thicken in the refrigerator. Cook the pasta al dente and then drain it in a colander. Using a large, plastic, re-sealable container, add the pasta, chopped veggies and bacon. Chill the mixture in the fridge overnight. On game day, mix in the party dip and put the container into your cooler. It’s ready to go, and by tailgate time it will be great with any sandwich or chicken.

Bumblebees and a Yellow Jacket Commentary by David Cain

Perhaps one of the coolest mascots ever, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket, is a feisty little bee that looks to me the perfect mixture of cute and menacing. I was visiting the campus for an event unrelated to the school when I noticed a bookstore loaded with bee accessories. It was the perfect find for a father in need of ample booty to return home to little ones.

I rolled into the store and surveyed the horizon. Armed with a reasonable budget, I was blown away when I discovered the bumblebee mascot. Cups, little shirts, little hats, little socks, stuffed bumblebees. It was catnip. I stepped back and took a breath. I decided that I should call home and make sure my little girls would be as enamored with the bee as me.

I made the call. The first discussion went quickly: “No bee, Daddy, I want a stuffed cat or candy.” Okay, that works. For the second call I knew I had to work for it if that little bee was joining me on the plane.

“You want Daddy to bring you a yellow jacket?” Who could resist that leading statement? Of course she said yes. Our discussion continued with a complete description that included my confirmation that the yellow jacket had antennas and a stinger. I had this little guy all picked

out; he was amazing – a little scary, I admit, but certainly something we could overcome. I had visions of her loving it so much, taking the bee to bed every night as her go-to animal and rewarding me with sweet kisses and an endless supply of “I love you’s.”

I arrived home anxious to give my gifts. The prized bee had traveled the entire trip by my side. I took out the bee and was greeted with screams. Her cries of sorrow and disappointment were not because of the bee’s menacing look. Instead, it was a mismatched expectation.

You see, she was expecting a yellow jacket that she could wear, complete with antennas and a stinger, not a stuffed bumblebee.

It was just another reminder of how important clear communication is for people and businesses.

It’s a reminder of how important it is never to make an assumption that who you are talking to will understand your jargon. It’s important to remember you have to be thorough. Well, it’s something I’ll remember every time I see that bee staring at me in his new home – my office.

Travel / Grammar Guy

Gift-giving can be tricky Commentary by Tracy Line

My husband is quite the gift giver. Over the years, I’ve been surprised with theater tickets, jewelry, a trip to San Francisco and even a new car for our anniversary.

Me? Not so much. I’m practical and too much of a worrier to surprise anyone with anything. So, frankly, I owed him. This year, I went all out. The gift I gave? Wonderful. My delivery, though, was not.

Of course my gift was a vacation – a hunting trip for him and a friend. But first, I had to figure out how to give it. Since I stink at this, I simply put the trip information in a card.

To be tricky, I gave it to him a week before our anniversary. To lure him home from work that evening I texted him and said I needed to talk about something important. He then called me, but I panicked and didn’t answer the call. I texted back to say I could only talk in person.

Minutes later, my husband walked into the house eyes wide open, concern on his face and a torn shirt. Confused, I asked about the shirt.

Apparently my words led him to a panic so his shirt caught on the door as he rushed out. Visions of a car wreck or diagnosis of terminal illness had filled his brain. Oops. I guess writing “we need to talk” via text is not the right way to

give a gift.

We sat on the patio, him settling his mind and me dying for him to open the card. All the while our kids are making faces through the windows. I felt horrible and was stifling laughter at the same time.

The good news? He recovered and loved the gift. Me? Well, if anything ever did happen, I know my husband would be there in a heartbeat, torn shirt and all.

Apostrophes and plurals Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: I’m a big fan of music from the 1960s. I’ve seen it written a lot of ways: The ‘60s; the 60s; the 60’s.; even ‘60s’ music. Which one of those is correct?

Answer: You’ve treaded here into one of the stickier grammar rules: apostrophes used to indicate plural nouns – though, in your example, the rule would be misapplied. We’ll get to that in a bit, though.

To answer your first question, if you’re talking about a specific decade like the 1960s, and you want to be a little less formal, writing it as “the ‘60s” is perfectly fine. There the apostrophe indicates an omission – specifically the omission of “1900.” It’s the same principle applied in some of the more cringe-worthy slang you might pick up from a Mark Twain protagonist: ‘cause (because), s’pose (suppose), etc.

Now let’s go through the rest of your examples, shall we? Let’s say you want to turn a number into a plural object. To stick with the 60 theme, let’s say you’ve got a very large group of people which you’ve counted off into 60 smaller groups. If you’d like each member of the number 60 sub-group to, let’s say, line up for lunch, you might say this: “Would the 60s please come to the cafeteria?”

The principle applies for all numbers (7s, 18s, 4,000s, etc.), and also for capital letters (As, Bs, Cs, etc.). www.currentnoblesville.com

Of course, since nothing can be too easy in English, if you’d like to make lower case letters plural, you’ll need to bring that apostrophe back. Remember when your mother advised you to mind your p’s and q’s? She used apostrophes to do so.

The third 60 you’ve presented here, “60’s” is simply incorrect … unless of course you’re talking about a possession belonging to, I don’t know, a robot named “60.” But since robots still don’t have personal property rights, it’s not something we need to worry about.

The last 60 in your question, “’60s’ music,” is, I think, a valiant attempt to apply correct grammar. Ultimately, of course, it is one that fails.

The initial apostrophe is used correctly to indicate that something has been omitted (“1900”).

The second apostrophe wants to, I believe, indicate that the music in question comes from the 1960s. I can understand this. Why it is incorrect is this: The music does not belong to the 1960s; it is simply of the 1960s. In this use, ‘60s becomes an adjective in the same way you might say “Jamaican music” or “Celtic music;” thus no apostrophe is needed.

Relationships / Genealogy Five ways to increase your happiness LIFESTYLE

Commentary by Kristen Boice What do you want more of in your life? Happiness? Peace? Love? Many people report wanting more happiness and peace with themselves and others. They feel lost on how to get it.

Everyone has issues and struggles in their lives. There is no such thing as a perfect person. We may strive to be perfect in order to gain acceptance. Many people think being perfect or having the latest and greatest material possessions such as clothes, houses, cars, technology, jewelry, cosmetics or shoes will make them happy. Once they have the items, they quickly realize they’re just a black hole.

There are several killers of happiness: Trying to be perfect; people pleasing; taking things personally; victim-thinking; blaming others; and addictions. But, it’s never too late to make changes.

How can we increase our happiness? Below are five steps: 1. Discover what you love and take action. What are you passionate about? What do you love spending your time doing? Be intentional and make more time to do these things.

This will bring more joy into your life instantly.

2. Don’t take things personally. We tend to take things people say or do personally. We are hurt or offended by others’ words. Wouldn’t

life be a little more peaceful if we had a deeper understanding that it’s not about us? If we trigger another person, it’s because there is something from their past they might need to explore.

3. Take every situation as a learning experience. Ask yourself, “What can I learn from this?” “What is the lesson in this challenge for me?”

Everything happens for a reason. We just may not discover that reason until after we’re through the experience.

4. Take ownership of your choices and behavior. Let go of excuses and own your issues. Don’t get caught up in the blame game.

5. Forgive. Forgive. Forgive. Maybe you need to first forgive yourself to forgive others. Work through your own pain and hurt so you can let go and move on. If we learn from difficult and painful situations, we walk away empowered and no longer a hostage to the past.

Forgiveness is not forgetting; it is simply no longer letting it have power over you so you can move into more happiness.

‘Share a memory’ challenge Commentary by Darla Kinney Scoles

With the competitive spirit fueled by the recent Olympic Games still fresh in our minds, a family history contest seems to me the perfect end-of-summer endeavor.

Enter, Dear Myrtle’s 2012 “Share a Memory” Contest!

Running now through Sept. 30, (with winners to be announced Oct. 5 during Family History Month) the contest asks participants to simply post a favorite memory, choosing from a variety of formats. Easy!

Here are a few suggestions from Dear Myrtle: “The entry could be a child’s memory, an ancestor’s story, a reunion memory, a recipe story, a back to school memory, a family ski vacation story, a camping trip memory, a water-skiing story, a miracle memory, a do-it-yourself project story, a favorite thing memory, a cousin story or a birthday memory. Remind a 5-year-old how proud you are he can ride his bike without the training wheels by sharing the video clip on YouTube for the world to see. Blog about how you made that family photo quilt. Use In-

stagram to begin sharing ancestor photos with your siblings and cousins, preserving family history. Share a joke your dad always used to tell via Facebook or your own blog. Create a short video clip about that old family heirloom.”

Any story to preserve the memory for your family members can be submitted to this contest.

To enter the 2012 “Share a Memory” Contest and find the guidelines necessary to do so, visit www.dearmyrtle.com and click on the contest post under “Blog Archive.” Prizes for this event include a Kodak PlaySport (Zx5) HD Waterproof Pocket Video Camera - Aqua (second generation) and $50 and $25 Amazon gift certificates. Memories are, of course, priceless – but sometimes a bit of a cash incentive helps us document things a bit sooner. Happy sharing!

We all have those days where we plan on sticking close to home, running a few errands, maybe hitting the gym in the late afternoon, or meeting a couple girlfriends on the Monon with strollers in tow.

Expi Septembe res r 11, 2012

While a ponytail is a very acceptable (and even chic) hairstyle for these activities, we cringe at the idea of being out in public (or out of our bathroom for that matter) without paying some sort of attention to our face.

Follow these steps for a low maintenance but fresh look: 1. Dot concealer on blemishes and under eye circles with your finger. Concealer will help even out your skin tone without needing to apply a layer of foundation.

2. Dab a tiny bit of liquid or gel blush to your cheeks and use your finger to blend it in for a fresh glow.

Fall Skincare While most of us focus on protecting skin in the summer, it is important not to neglect your regimen during the fall. Here are five tips for maintaining healthy skin past the summer months:

3. Apply a stroke or two of mascara, or simply use an eyelash curler to accentuate and widen your eyes.

Makeup for Teens

1. Continue to use SPF! The sun’s rays are still powerful during fall, and can cause even more damage to those caught unaware. Use at least SPF 15 to continue to protect your skin.

Most young women are obsessed with makeup but they often don’t have the knowledge or confidence to make it work.

Teens love trying trendy colors and textures, but a fresh, young face should never be smothered in makeup.

2. Exfoliate skin twice a week. This can help remove dry skin and uneven tone caused by exposure to the sun during the summer.

3. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Fall air is dryer without the humidity of summer, so your skin needs extra nourishment to stay healthy.

4. To get rid of chapped lips, carry around a trusty tube of balm or Chapstick. Exfoliating lips lightly with a toothbrush can also get rid of dead skin on your pucker.

Teens should skip an all over foundation.

Cover blemishes with a blemish stick and then dab on powder in the oily T-zone, but avoid slathering on a heavy, liquid foundation.

5. Stay hydrated and exercise! Besides the multitude of other benefits, doing so can help maintain a fresh and healthy glow.

Makeup should also not be used to look older. This can result in an unnatural, harsh look. Keeping colors light and sheer will ensure the fresh, youthful glow still shines through.

Call and schedule an appointment with one of our trained estheticians for more skincare advice!

Trick of the Trade: To avoid drawing attention to braces, skip bright lip colors!

Stick to a tinted lip balm or sheer gloss.

Outdooes Staking down trees not necessary INSIDE & OUT

Commentary by Holly Lindzy

As if a newly planted tree might suddenly up and runaway, homeowners have this ceaseless urge to anchor it to the earth. Where do they think the tree will go? I don’t know, but I’ve seen all sorts of creative ways to tie down helpless trees. Ropes, rubber hoses, even shepherd’s hooks; there are some mighty imaginative tree lovers out there.

I know it’s only because they think they are doing the right thing, but there are really only two situations where a tree needs to be staked.

In no way are you going to straighten an established crooked trunk. So, if the tree was acquired as a bare root tree and does not have an established root ball to anchor it, or if the tree is planted in an extremely windy site (which is not really the best scenario anyway) then stake it for one year.

The life of the tree, contained in the vascular tissue, lies just below the bark of a tree and takes water and nutrients back and forth from the roots to the leaves. As a tree grows, anything that is tied around it remains. It doesn’t break open with the growing tree – the tree bark just grows around it. Then as the bark starts to swallow the material that is binding the tree, eventually the vascular tissue is severed and decline of the tree follows – a sad situation called girdling.

If you have to wrap something around your tree, be sure to remove it after one year. And if you must stake your tree for some reason, be sure not to stake it too tightly, so that it has some room to move when a wind comes. Otherwise, if it is staked too tautly, the trunk might C H O K E

INSIDE & OUT

Commentary by Larry Greene

Remodeling

Laundry room update for family

Original laundry room: This home is located in the Brentwood development on the east side of Carmel and was built in 1986. The owners moved in during 2006 and were not happy with how the existing laundry room looked. “It was old and drab. It lacked the function we needed as a family with two kids.”

Remodeling goals: The homeowners considered their long term goals. “Our plan is to remodel the entire home over time, so we wanted to bring a look to the laundry room that would blend with the house now and in the future. We did not want to remodel again as the look of the rest of the house changed. We were looking for modern appliances and cabinetry, but with a look that would coordinate with the rest of the house.”

Laundry room details: The new room includes new white stock cabinets with a Nantucket door style along with Staron solid surface countertops in pebble beach. The floor is covered with 8” x 8” tumbled Torreon stone tile

Before while the backsplash is a blue ice-blended tile from Dal Tile. Finally, new recessed can lights were added in the ceiling and the entire project area was freshly painted.

Dog wash area: The owners spent time designing around the family pets. “This area speaks to the functionality we were looking for in the laundry room. We have two active dogs that get pretty dirty and we wanted an area where we could clean them off and not make a mess in the rest of the room. The design allowed both adults and kids to use the area easily. The sink height is good for the kids and the faucets make

After washing the dogs very easy.”

Favorite features: According to the homeowner the new cabinetry made the biggest difference. “Our favorite part of the remodel is the clean lines of the new cabinetry.”
