COVID-19 cases on the rise; Health officials warn of complacency during pandemic

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com Because of a rise of COVID-19 cases in Indiana, state health officials caution Hoosiers about the dangers of PANDEMIC not following mitigation efforts when with family and friends, especially with the arrival of cooler weather and people spending more time indoors.

Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb said isolated gatherings have led to outbreaks of COVID-19. He said Hoosiers must remain vigilant in slowing the spread, even when with friends Holcomb and family.

Indiana State Health Commissioner Kristina Box said health officials have traced outbreaks to events, such as weddings, funerals and parties, and are concerned similar indoor gatherings could increase the spread during the fall and winter months.

Within the last week, the state’s seven-day percent positivity rate has increased. As of Sept. 30, the rate was 5 percent. As of Sept. 22, it was 3.9 percent.

Between Sept. 30 and Oct. 6, Indiana also reported the most positive COVID-19 cases in one week since the start of the pandemic, according to data compiled by state officials at coronavirus.in.gov, though testing also has increased to record highs.

Box said health officials are monitoring ICU bed capacities “very closely.”

As of Oct. 6, 33.4 percent of ICU beds in the state were still available, with 14.9 percent being used by COVID-19 patients and 51.7 percent by other patients.

“We are seeing ICU bed capacity shrink in

some areas of the state,” Box said. “Most of these areas already had smaller numbers of ICU beds available and are seeing increased need for ICU beds, but not just for COVID illnesses. Our hospitals around the state have worked hard to build capacity. We want to ensure they preserve that capacity in the coming weeks and months.”

Per schools, nearly 400 additional schools reported COVID-19 data last week, Box said.

The state reported 303 additional student COVID-19 cases, totaling 1,992 student cases dating to the beginning of the school year.

The number of counties with high scores on Box the state’s, county-level COVID-19 map also increased. The map ranks Indiana counties using average scores denoted by colors. Blue counties have the lowest average scores. Yellow, orange and red counties have progressively higher average scores, which are determined by averaging scores attributed to the number of weekly positive cases per 100,000 county residents and the county’s percent positivity rate.

Two weeks ago, four counties were in orange, and no counties were in red. Last week, eight counties were in orange and one in red.

“Some of the changes you are seeing this week are results of outbreaks in long-term care facilities,” Box said during an Oct. 7

BY THE NUMBERS • 33.4 percent: ICU beds still available as of Oct. 6 • 14.9 percent: ICU beds used by COVID-19 patients • 1992: Total student cases since the start of the school year virtual press conference. “Another county is dealing with the fallout of more than 30 cases tied to a single event at which people gathered indoors, in close proximity, without wearing masks. Keep in mind that our temperatures outside are going to continue to drop and that we are officially in fall, and that is going to make it harder to hold activities outdoors. As people come inside more and the flu season ramps up, we need Hoosiers to be more vigilant about hand washing, social distancing and wearing masks.

“I know you are tired of wearing masks and staying apart. We all have pandemic fatigue, but I keep hearing about the cases that could have been prevented if we had just taken these simple precautions.”

Box said for the state to remain in Stage 5 of its reopening plan, Hoosiers must continue mitigation efforts because it could be several months before a vaccine is available to the public.

“Let’s use the tools we have now to keep our state open and keep Hoosiers healthy,” Box said.

As people come inside more and the flu season ramps up, we need Hoosiers to be more vigilant about hand washing, social distancing and wearing masks. I know you are tired of wearing masks and staying apart.

We all have pandemic fatigue, but I keep hearing about the cases that could have been prevented if we had just taken these simple precautions.”

WHS senior Gabennesch specializes in oatmeal creations

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Westfield High School senior Julia Gabennesch has always enjoyed oatmeal and cooking.

RECIPE “I feel like oatmeal is so versatile. It’s just so easy to come up with new flavors, and I feel like it’s fun to do, also,” she said. “There are so many different things I can do with it. It’s fascinating.”

Gabennesch, 17, started Gabennesch creating oatmeal bowls last year and started taking pictures when COVID-19 lockdowns began in mid-March.

“I felt like I had so much time on my hands and I started making my bowls a little more elaborate,” Gabennesch said.

Gabennesch, whose favorite subject is math and is considering majoring in chemical engineering in college, has a busy school schedule. She is a member of the cross country team, secretary of National Honor Society, Spanish Honor Society and Dance Marathon Club. She also plays tennis for the Shamrocks in the spring.

“With school, I don’t have that much free time on my hand to be cooking,” she said. “I feel oatmeal is overly easy to do and I feel it’s one I can do every day. I share them with my mom, especially. She really likes them.”

Gabennesch also shares the oatmeal bowls with her cross country team and friends in her carpool.

Her Pumpkin Spice Latte bowl is her favorite fall creation so far.

“I cook the oatmeal in the coffee and add

The Westfield Welcome team saw the COVID-19 pandemic as an opportunity to establish itself as a leader PANDEMIC instead of viewing it as an obstacle.

“Amidst the pandemic, (Westfield Welcome Director) Angie (Smitherman) and her team not only continued to do events but also flexed, and now they are really taking on that leadership role of COVID enforcement, particularly at Grand Park,” Westfield Communications Director Vicki Duncan Gardner said.

Smitherman said the organization schedules weekly meetings with event organizers to discuss guidelines.

“The guidelines are Smitherman approved by the Hamilton County Health Dept.,” Smitherman said. “We go over guidelines and foresee hardships on how to manage the events based on the guidelines, discuss the guidelines they may add to their teams and we go through all that with them every week.”

Each Monday, Westfield Welcome sends the Grand Park schedule for the upcoming week to the Hamilton County Health Dept.

Typically, event organizers screen their own players and coaches, and Westfield Welcome staff screens spectators.

“We don’t let parents in for a half hour after the players come in, and I do temperature checks and health screenings for them to ensure everyone indoors has been checked for fever and asked the right questions,” Smitherman said. “Everyone has to wear a mask the entire time they’re inside (the event center).”

When there’s a tournament on the outdoor sports fields, Westfield Welcome staff ensures there are only 250 people per designated area.

“It’s just keeping an eye on things and making sure everyone is following the COVID guidelines,” Smitherman said.

The dedication turned beneficial after the City of Carmel canceled its public events. Vision Event Management contacted Westfield to conduct a 5K race in Westfield instead of Carmel, where the race is normally held.

“We spoke with police and fire and pulled a plan together,” Smitherman said. “My team

went out there and helped manage the start and finish line to follow COVID safety guidelines. We started in waves so people were not too close, and that went really well.”

Since then, the management group requested Smitherman’s help at another event in Speedway.

“Angie and the team, they historically have done the Westfield Welcome, they’ve done that welcoming, so it was natural to have them use those skills,” Duncan Gardner said. “The team is really trying to work with people to ensure they’re safe.”

So far, Smitherman said most Grand Park event attendees have willingly complied with the rules.

“It’s been well received,” she said. “I think people are looking for something to do live in person, so they missed that this year, so we’ve received many thank-yous at the finish line or at Grand Park. Most of the people are willing to comply. I think people are happy just to have someone willing to do it.”

and changing the world.”

Denniston received her bachelor’s degree in English and Spanish education and a minor in vocal performance from Anderson University. She received her master’s degree in education administration and supervision from Ball State University.

After graduation, she was a student teacher at Pendleton Heights Middle School and then a teacher of Spanish and English at Shelbyville High School. Then, she taught Spanish at Felicity-Franklin High School in Ohio before teaching Spanish and English as a Second Language at WHS for five years.

She then became WHS’ assistant principal for the next eight years.

“There’s something about Westfield that immediately I just knew this is where I want to be. This is home,” she said. “I’m very humbled by this. I don’t know that I would have initially thought I would be here in this position right now, but my love for the students, my love for the staff and just this school and wanting to lead this school has led me here.”

Approximately 2,500 students are enrolled at WHS. The school has an A rating with the Indiana Dept. of Education and a 98 percent graduation rate. WHS is ranked the fourth-best high school in the Indianapolis area and was designated a Distinguished School by Project Lead the Way, a STEM-focused nonprofit, in 2020.

Westfield High School names Alicia Denniston as new principal

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

Alicia Denniston knows she has big shoes to fill as Westfield High School’s new principal. The Westfield Washington Schools Board of Trustees and WWS Supt. Sherry Grate are confident she’s the right person for the job.

The board unanimously approved Denniston’s appointment as principal during a Sept. 29 special Grate meeting.

The high school has looked for a new principal since June, after then-principal Stacy McGuire was reassigned to administrator of alternative learning. McGuire’s reassignment met resistance in the community and sparked several protests seeking McGuire to be reinstated as principal. Denniston and Assistant Principal Bill Naas served as interim co-principals in the meantime. Before that, Denniston was the school’s assistant principal for eight years.

“I have had the privilege of working under Dr. McGuire now for the last eight years, and there are so many things she has taught me about culture, about students first, about preparing our students for the day after graduation,” Denniston said.

“I shared with everyone throughout the interview process that there are so many cornerstones that must stay at WHS.” Denniston is fond of a quote McGuire would often say: “We shall move heaven and earth never to lose a single student — for no young person is expendable. In the right environment, every young person, without exception, has unlimited potential for growth, improvement and success in life.”

Denniston said each student matters.

“We are in it for every single student, and that is something I believe is ingrained in the culture of Westfield High School, is students first, period,” she said.

Denniston also said she will focus on

Westfield Washington Schools Supt.

Shery Grate said the application process for the Westfield High School principal position was comprehensive and extensive.

“Earlier this summer, we began by gathering information and creating a profile for the best candidate. We gathered that from surveys of students, staff and parents and 1-on-1 meetings with staff members,” Grate said. “After screening interviews, we narrowed it to five candidates.”

An interview process then narrowed the search to two finalists, one of which was Alicia Denniston.

“Alicia Denniston is no stranger to Westfield Denniston High School,” Grate said.

“She has served along with Bill Naas as interim co-principal since June, and she has done an outstanding job in the midst of COVID planning and in terms of where we are with this transition and (the Westfield High School) construction.”

ESSAY

LETTER

Heroes and villians

A positive campaign

Commentary by Terry Anker Albert “Cubby” Broccoli, famed originator of the James Bond films, took famed author Ian Fleming’s fictional British Secret Service agent to iconic status.

Some 67 years after 007 first appeared, the recent delay, again, of the premier of the 25th movie installment of the series — ‘No Time to Die’ — made international headlines. Some entertainment industry experts hold that the film’s postponement led to the closing of the national Regal chain of theaters. While some might decry the formulaic and predictable nature of the franchise, millions find comfort in the standard. The bad guy loses, the good guy wins and the world is saved once more.

Black Nehru jacket, check. Beautiful companion and unusual, if not freak-ofnature security guard, check. Sinister but cool look in the eye, check. Signet ring or small tattoo to confirm their allegiance to the cause, check and double check. We could discern the evil megalomaniac from our virtuous protagonist even without the swanky orchestral movement that would usher him in. Of the many actors who have undertaken the Bond role, each wore a tailored suit, a cheeky attitude and a Walther PPK. In remarkable, if human, form, Bond would overcome evil by relying on his own capacity, with a bit of help from the ingenious Q. As kids, we’d cheer as the corrupt political leader, obsessive media mogul, mentally deranged heiress or wily foreign power would be cleverly corralled into their final collapse at the hands of our champion. But today, can we tell the difference between the heroes and villains?

Wearing the same safe blue suit and hospital mask, they all look alike. No music announces their intention, and no distinguishing scar marks their countenance.

It is up to us to choose the winner. Are we up for it?

No more swearing, I swear Commentary by Danielle Wilson For the millionth time, I’m vowing to curtail my cussing. Not go cold turkey (I’m not stupid!), but rather an easing HUMOR off on the R-rated material. I don’t always judge my audience correctly, and a little self-censorship would go a long way toward a classier me.

It’s hard though, especially in a s&*% year like this one. With each new Trump debacle, COVID crisis, election trauma or family heartbreak, I want to scream like an inebriated salty-dog sailor. That’s a lot of screaming. October alone has forced me to become truly creative in my word choice, often resulting in brand new swears like “t^$#-waddler.” You’re welcome.

It’s also difficult because I no longer have young children to act as natural barriers to my filthy mouth. My oldest accidentally dropped an F-bomb during a recent phone conversation and all I did was laugh. Laugh!

Then there’s the whole scientific argument for cursing. Research (i.e., Myth

Busters) has proven that even muttering obscenities under your breath can increase pain tolerance. Apparently, an adamant “darn” doesn’t come close to the power of a perfectly lobbed “c%#*s@!*&er!”

And let’s be honest, when used appropriately and with solid comedic timing, foul language is hilarious. That’s why I love my family and co-workers. They get it. They know that profanity is simply a punch line, a vent, or a colorful way to say, “Life sucks right now.”

So, maybe it’s not possible to totally expurgate my vocabulary, but that doesn’t mean I can’t try. When you come close to using an unmentionable word in front of high school students, it’s time to reevaluate.

Here’s to a classier me. Peace out.

Pros and cons of black licorice Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Lots of big news in the world of candy. First, as you may have heard, due to COVID-19, there will be no HUMOR Peeps this Halloween. In fact, there may be no Halloween this Halloween.

Scientists have recently raised concern about licorice. Apparently, a Massachusetts construction worker died of an overdose.

He ate three bags of black licorice a day for two weeks, which the experts say results in a toxic level of glycyrrhizic acid. Glycyrrhizic also is the sound your stomach makes when you eat three bags of licorice a day for two weeks. The guy collapsed in a fastfood restaurant, where he reportedly ate three Whoppers a day for two weeks. No mention of that in the autopsy report.

So, too much black licorice is bad for you, but apparently small amounts of the treat are beneficial, slowing the effects of aging on the brain and keeping mental skills sharp, controlling respiratory problems and soothing a sore throat. It also combats hepatitis and calms skin irritations, just to name a few reasons to eat the occasional Twizzler.

By the way, red licorice is not licorice; it’s just candy. If you are color blind, take special note whether you binge on black or red. And don’t play checkers or roulette.

Currently, you can buy licorice over the counter — the candy counter, that is. No prescription needed. But that will all change if Eli Lilly can figure out a way to get those rubbery sticks into a tiny plastic bottle. If that happens and black licorice is officially declared a drug, the cost will soar and might even exceed what you pay for licorice in the movie theater. Then the government will require warnings on the bottle: Side effects include blackened teeth, no teeth, inflamed gums, jaw ache, weight gain and funny facial expressions when chewing. Do not eat licorice if you plan to operate heavy machinery, drive a car or ride a tricycle. In rare cases, licorice may cause impotence, but findings are inconclusive because most of the people eating black licorice are under 7 years old.

My wife loves sweets, but she always feels bad about this guilty pleasure. So, when I saw her step into the kitchen pantry to nibble on something, I called to her, “What are you eating in there, Mary Ellen?”

“Ummlicrsssh.”

“I knew it. Licorice. I hope you already heard the news, Mary Ellen. A little black licorice is good for you, but too much is bad for you. Or are you are eating red licorice?”

“Not sure, Dick. The light automatically goes off when I close the door.”

Just for fun, I looked up “Effects of different candies on your health.” A lot of investigations are in the works. I would happily volunteer as a test eater, but most of this research is done on animals, and they’re generally opposed to being experiment subjects. At least a diet of Skittles, Bit O’ Honeys and gummy bears is a step up from being forced to smoke three packs of cigarettes a day.

A final note to kids: If you go trick-ortreating, avoid eating too much black licorice if it ends up in your sack. And please, wear a mask!

Metatarsalgia: What it is and how to treat it Commentary by Dr. David Sullivan If the ball of your foot is painful and inflamed, you may have FOOT HEALTH metatarsalgia, also known as ball of foot pain. Symptoms include: • Burning, sharp or aching pain in the ball of your foot — just behind your toes.

• Your pain is worse when you stand and better when you rest.

• Your toes may be numb, tingling or have shooting pain.

• It could feel like a pebble is stuck in your foot.

What causes metatarsalgia?

Intense physical fitness, especially running, and training in worn-out shoes can increase your risk, as can having high arches, a second toe that is longer than your big toe, bunions and hammertoes. Other contributors include tight calf muscles, which can cause an Achilles tendon to not allow the foot to extend when walking or running; excess weight; shoes that don’t fit; and stress fractures in your foot; or a Morton’s neuroma. All of these conditions change the balance of weight across your feet, and that puts increased pressure on the ball of your foot.

Treating ball of foot pain Metatarsalgia shares symptoms with several other foot conditions. To get an accurate diagnosis, you will want to schedule an appointment. Once we confirm the cause of pain, we’ll begin a treatment plan.

Resting and changing or padding your shoes, over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications and the RIE plan (rest, ice and elevation) may offer pain relief. If your Achilles tendon is causing ball of foot pain, calf stretching exercises need to be a part of any regimen. Low-impact sports such as swimming may be prescribed as you recover.

Custom orthotics can take pressure off the balls of your feet while offering pain relief. MLS Laser Therapy may be an option to relieve pain and promote faster healing.

If noninvasive treatment plans don’t offer enough relief, foot surgery may be needed to get you walking comfortably again.

It’s best to treat metatarsalgia quickly so that invasive treatment plans don’t have to be considered.

DISPATCHES Moving for better health — Sitting for most of the day is terrible for your health, raising your risk for diabetes, obesity, high cholesterol and high blood pressure. For betterhealth, try to get up and do some light activity several times a day, even if you have a sedentary job. Moving around triggers blood flow, clears glucose from the blood and breaks down triglycerides.

Source: BottomLineHealth.com Combating sleep loss — If you count sheep to help you fall asleep at night, the sleep-depriving worries that the calming, fluffy animals are meant to conquer are

most likely to take the form of dollar signs, family members or health concerns. A recent study by the personal finance website Bankrate.com found that, overall, 41 percent of 1,000 respondents said relationships are what sometimes keeps them up at night, including family relationships, which might mean you are in conflict with family members or you’re just worried about tough issues that they are dealing with. The second most common cause of sleep loss is money, cited by 36 percent of respondents. For a better night’s rest, prioritize sleep and treat it as if it were just as important to your health and well-being as diet and exercise, because it is. Second, consider writing in a journal before you hit the sack. A ritual of dumping stress out of your head and onto paper can have a calming effect while helping you work out potential solutions as you write. Next, consider practicing yoga or meditation before bed.

Howl + Hide plans pop-up shop

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When Howl + Hide launched sales of face masks during the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic, its staff COMING SOON noticed a trend.

“We saw data where people were buying, and a lot of the ZIP codes were from Hamilton County,” Howl and Hide Brand Manager Bailey Park said. “We realized a lot of people were buying our face masks not knowing who we are, so we decided to see if we could get these buyers interested in our leather products as well.”

Howl + Hide will open a pop-up store in Clay Terrace at 14390 Clay Terrace Blvd., suite 140.

It will have a grand opening Oct. 1 and remain open through December. Park said the leather goods store wants to reach shoppers who might not ordinarily visit its Fountain Square store.

Park said the pop-up store will hire seasonal employees as well as use employees from the downtown location. Six employees will work on a rotating schedule.

Park said the space is approximately 1,200 square feet. The Indianapolis flagship store, which opened five years ago, is at 1651 English Ave.

“All the production for all our leather goods is at that store, with a small portion used as a retail space,” Park said.

The store sells wallets, handbags, belts, travel bags, women’s backpacks and messenger bags, among other items.

The pop-up store will be open 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Learn more at howlandhidesupply.com/.

Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre’s production is a sign of the times

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For Gregory Hancock, it seemed natural to create pieces about the uncertainty everyone has faced during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PERFORMANCE “We’ve created a specific piece for the time that we are in right now and the things we’ve experienced the last few months,” he said.

Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre will present four performances of “Dances for a New World: Part One” Oct. 22-24 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

The performances will be followed by “Dances for a New World: Part Two” Jan. 14-16, 2021 and “Dances for a New World: Part Three” April 1. The season closes with “There’s No Place Like Home.”

“All four pieces are interconnected in a way,” Hancock said.

“The first part is all new dances and choreography that reflect the times that we’ve been in the last few months, the isolation, the fear of how art is going to come back. There’s been a lot of feelings I’ve had and the dancers have had, and (we) try to create those feelings and emotions in this new piece.”

Hancock said there is a lot of eclectic music and one big piece.

There is no intermission in the 75-minute show.

There is no partnering and dancers aren’t allowed to touch.

“At first, it was challenging, and I was little discouraged on how we do that,” Hancock said. “Then, I decided to look at what we can do instead of what we can’t do. It’s been a creative, enjoyable process for me to create this new work. I think people will be surprised by the performance. It’s a new departure for the company.

“A lot of our pieces are story driven or narrative driven. While this does have a narrative, it’s much more abstract than most of our pieces.”

Hancock said the narrative is clear with everyone experiencing social distancing and isolation.

“I think the audiences will be able to relate to the piece and what is presented on stage,” he said. “It’s safe to come back to (The Tarkington). We’re bringing beauty back to the world.

There’s some emotional things in the piece, but it is hopeful and inspiring.”

Music variety ranges from avant garde to classical.

“Even our performers are social distancing on stage,” said Hancock, adding that dancers and the audience will wear face masks.

The dance studio closed March 13 and didn’t reopen until September.

“We had essentially six months off, and being in a physical career, that’s like six years off for other people,” company dancer Abbie Lessaris said. “Physically, it has been extremely challenging for us to have that much time off and then to jump back into

rehearsing full time and prepare a show. I think dancers are passionate, strong people, and we didn’t want our art to be silenced anymore.

“We got back in the studio and it was a long, hard process to start feeling physically capable as we were before, but we all pushed through.”

Lessaris said there are two parts of the show where a screen of plexiglass moves around the stage but is always separating two dancers from each other.

“I think that physical image will really resonate with the audience because it’s really in your face,” she said.

Lessaris is thrilled to be back with her co-workers.

“We’re a company that is a family, so being away from our co-workers was like being away from our family,” she said. “We’re letting everyone know the Center is taking procedures to be safe.

We’re ready to share our art again. We hope the audience is ready to return and see us finally dancing again.”

Capacity in the 500-seat hall is limited to 122 for each show to create social distancing between seats. Performances are at 7 p.m. Oct. 22-23 and 2 and 7 p.m. Oct. 24.

The Indianapolis Opera will present a virtual night of celebration called “Wings of Love” from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 17. The event will feature world-class performers such as tenor Ganson Salmon and bass/baritone Rafael Porto, along with the talented Indianapolis Opera Resident Artists.

Performers will sing songs from popular musicals and operas. Virtual guests also will have an opportunity to bid on unique silent auction items until 8:30 p.m. Oct. 17.

Salmon is an Indianapolis Opera Resident Artist alumni from 2016. Porto was most recently a headliner at Opera at the Park.

The Indianapolis Opera is presenting the event free. However, Indianapolis Opera officials are requesting each guest to consider making a donation of $250, the cost of an Opera Ball ticket, to support the ongoing programs of the Indianapolis Opera such as the Resident Artists Program.

Alexandra Hudson figures this is a perfect time in American history for this exhibit.

“Some Books Make Us Free” is an ART exhibition of artistic interpretation of rare books at the Harrison Center, 1505 N. Delaware St., Indianapolis.

“I’m thrilled to be involved in this initiative of the Harrison Center which is able to marry all the things that I love, which Hudson is classic ideas of human freedom and human dignity, rare books and great works of antiquity that contribute to the freedom that we enjoy today and also art and civil discourse,” said Hudson, who is serving as Harrison Center’s Scholar in Residence. “We have commissioned local artists to interpret and respond to and bring to life the themes of these rare books.”

Visitors can view rare books from which the commissioned art will be inspired, including an 18th-century edition of the “Magna Carta;” an early edition of Samuel

(1841), is on display at the “Some Books Make Us Free” exhibit. (Submitted photo)

Johnson’s famous “English Dictionary;” first edition of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s “The Social Contract;” a first edition of Henry David Thoreau’s work; and an original, first edition of Alexis de Tocqueville’s “Democracy in America.”

Partners include Harrison Center, Sagamore Institute, The Remnant Trust, Indiana Historical Society, Women4Change and the Indiana Bar Foundation “Harrison Center is eager to spark a public conversation about this important issue.

We are thankful for the strong partnerships that have made this possible,” Harrison Center Executive Director Joanna Taft said.

Photographer opens gallery

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel photographer Roben Bellomo didn’t want a traditional art gallery.

Bellomo and Dallas-based phoART tographer Jim Hamel wanted a more creative approach to their gallery, providing experiences through the art.

“We wanted a place where everybody could engage in some way, shape or form,” Bellomo said. “We are doing quarterly exhibits of limited pieces. The opening collection is part of a perspective series, which plays on the way we all experience the world in different ways. We were on a trip to Ireland last year for two weeks. We went to all the same places and at all the same time.

What we were trying to do was show how differently we saw what we saw and how differently we captured it. Maybe we should take more time talking and listening to how other people experience the world instead of thinking it’s all the same.”

BEHN Gallery, 2149 Glebe St., Suite 100, opened last month in the Village of West Clay in Carmel.

The gallery’s name is derived from the

initials of the names for Bellomo and his wife Adrienne’s children, Neva and Bodhi, and Hamel and his wife Susan Fesmire’s children, Elizabeth and Hannah.

Bellomo said there will be different artwork to display the creativity of both co-owners.

Bellomo and his wife opened BELLOMO Studios in 2014, centering on fine Portraiture, small business branding imagery and commission pieces.

Ben’s BBQ Shack

WE ARE YOUR APPLE SUPPORT EXPERTS!

Commentary by Anna Skinner 950 N. Rangeline Rd., Ste. E, Carmel, IN 46032 • (317) 867-0900 • www.ctcarmel.com • M-F 9:00-4:00 and Weekends/After Hours by Appt.

Address: 124 E. Main St., Westfield What to get: Brisket Price: $10-$18 Anna’s take: My sister-in-law was born and raised in Memphis, and she’s always taking me to hot BBQ spots in Tennessee.

Next time she visits me, I can’t wait to take her by Ben’s BBQ Shack in Westfield. The name is appropriate — owner Ben Hoffman operates out of a tiny shack on Ind. 32 in downtown Westfield. The place is so small, there’s no inside dining. People line up outside and order at the window, then take their purchases with them or eat outdoors on the picnic tables. Let me tell you, this spot is worth waiting in line for, regardless of the weather. The menu is short, but the quality is huge. My favorite was the brisket — a delectable, melt-in-your-mouth order of meat available for $10 per half pound or $18 per pound. I also loved the pulled pork.

I’m a sandwich girl, so I prefer my pulled

pork on a bun, but you can opt for no bun.

The pulled pork is $8 per half pound or $14 per pound. A pulled pork sandwich is $8, and a brisket sandwich is $10. In addition, delicious ribs are available for $14 per pound. Hoffman makes everything in-house, including the barbecue sauce and sides of coleslaw and baked beans.

Ben’s BBQ Shack is open from noon to 3 p.m. Fridays and 4 to 8 p.m. Saturdays, or until Hoffman sells out each day. I suggest getting there early. He sells out frequently.

Rear Wall of Sidì Saiyyed Mosque in Ahmedabad, India. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Ahmedabad’s unique mosque Commentary by Don Knebel A 16th-century mosque in Ahmedabad, the fifth-largest city in India and one of the world’s fastest-growing cities, TRAVEL provides a symbol of the city.

It also provides a symbol of the little-known contribution of African slaves to Indian architecture.

Ahmedabad is in Gujarat, a state along the northwest coast of India. In 1411, Ahmad Shah I, the sultan of Gujarat and a member of the Muzaffarid Dynasty, erected the Bhadra Fort on the east bank of the Sabarmati River and founded the surrounding town, which he named Ahmedabad, as his new capital. By this time, Gujarat was home to slaves known as “Hapshi,” who had been captured near the Horn of Africa. Rulers of the Muzaffarid Dynasty used the Hapshi as bodyguards, and some rose to high positions in the military and the government. By 1537, as many as 5,000 Hapshis were working for the sultan of Gujarat. When Muzzafar Shah III became sultan in 1561, he gave a Hapshi named Sidì Saiyyed an important

Taylor

role in his administration. Sidì Saiyyed designed and built a mosque near the Bhadra Fort in the center of Ahmedabad. Workers completed the mosque in 1573, the same year that Mughal Emperor Akbar captured Gujarat from the Muzaffarids.

Today, only the sandstone prayer hall, the open front of which faces the courtyard, remains of what is known as the Sidì Saiyyed Mosque. The prayer hall is renowned for 10 arched sandstone screens (jalis) on the rear and side walls. The best known of the intricately carved screens reflects the Tree of Life, which Muslims believe grows in Paradise. The prayer hall is the best-known example of what has become known as the Gujarati style of design. Residents of Ahmedabad often use the Tree of Life from the Sidì Saiyyed Mosque to represent their city.

Imagine spending your entire life in a shelter - from puppy-hood to nearly your 2nd birthday. Imagine spending much of that time dealing with a mysterious cold that just wouldn’t go away.
