Why they freeze hockey pucks Commentary by Ward Degler Last week we talked about muddy baseballs.

This week, it’s frozen hockey pucks. All NHL and AHL pucks are frozen before plain talk the game. There are reasons for that. They glide smoother and faster when frozen, and freezing eliminates bouncing. Since pucks are made of vulcanized rubber, they tend to bounce like tennis balls when smacked with a stick. As a result, games played with warm pucks look a lot like the game of hurling from which hockey descended. A smacked puck goes airborne while the skaters swat at it like they are swinging baseball bats.

Early hockey games were played with wooden balls. The first flat pucks were likewise made of wood - and they were square. Pucks weren’t standardized to their present shape, size and weight until 1991. Today that standard is six ounces, one inch thick and three inches in diameter. They also are engraved with a crisscross pattern along the outside edge to provide greater stick control.

Hockey pucks are black. For a brief period in

the late 1990s both leagues experimented with something called the fire puck, a shiny Dayglo version that was supposed to make it easier for television audiences to follow puck movement. It was discontinued when players complained the bright color bothered their vision.

Baseball mud is provided to all major league baseball teams by just one company. Hockey pucks, likewise, have a single producer – InGlasCo of Sherbrooke, Quebec. At the start of the season each team will traditionally buy 1,500 pucks, which are then kept in a freezer until game time. Some teams use portable ice cream freezers for the task.

An average hockey game will use a dozen pucks. Most are discarded after the game because they get damaged during play. There’s a reason for that too. Hockey players aren’t known for playing gently with their toys.

At the Zionsville Economic Redevelopment Commission meeting held Dec. 30, two local business owners were approved to government receive funding from the Mircoloan program. But what is it and why is it important to have?

The town council adopted a resolution in August 2011 establishing the Zionsville Small Business Microloan program. The Redevelopment Commission provided $200,000 from existing TIF revenue or tax increments to fund it. The program is designed to promote commercial vibrancy of the community and strengthen economic viability by providing loans to small businesses within the Zionsville TIF district.

There are no deadlines to submit an application for funding. Applications are classified as either Tier I or Tier II. Startup businesses with lesser business history are considered Tier I and capped with a loan request of $6,250.

Tier II applicants are shown to have significant business history and are able to provide relevant financial documentation are capped at $25,000.

Security for the loans will consist of liens against assets; either real estate, inventory or equipment. A full list of lending criteria can be found at

Microloans approved on Dec. 30

• Shari Jenkins – Restaurateur, 55 E. Oak St. Tier II, $25,000 for refrigerator equipment for new business development.

• Darrin Marion – Proprietor – Darrin’s Coffee, 112 N. Main St. – Tier 1 - $6,250 for professional grade coffee and espresso machines and ice maker.

www.zionsville-in.gov.

The first step to secure a loan from the Microloan program is to submit an application to the RDC, where it is reviewed and submitted to the Microloan committee for processing. If approved, it is re-submitted to the RDC for member recommendation and the partnering bank is authorized to release funds to the applicant for its designated project or purchase. Monthly payments are made to the bank whereby the bank re-disperses the loan payment and interest back into the Microloan fund. The funding cycle completes when the RDC regenerates the funds back into the businesses in the TIF district.

“I am glad to get loans out the door,” RCD member Brad Johnson said.

JUST LISTED

Zionsville Cub Scout Pack 105 of Union Elementary School has a lot to be proud of. Under the leadership of Cub master Tom Suggiving ar the scouts packed and shipped 75 care packages as holiday gifts to Indiana National Guard soldiers deployed in the Middle East.

“In Pack 105, we teach the boys to walk the walk of Scouting values and that means providing selfless service to others. Our mission is to partner with our parents to help build better boys, great young men and future leaders.” stated Sugar.

Command Sgt. Mjr. Karolyn Peeler of the Indiana National Guard assisted the pack this year in assembling the packages filled with snacks, maga-

zines, books, personal-care items and a personal handwritten note of appreciation from each scout for the soldiers’ service to the country. It was especially important for Peeler to participate this year as Peeler received a care package last year from Pack 105 when she deployed in the Middle East. To express her gratitude, Peeler presented a U.S. flag to the Cub Scouts that was flown over her camp in Kuwait, which the scouts proudly fly during outdoor ceremonies.

“I am so impressed by the Cub Scouts at Union Elementary. Their generous support for our soldiers renews my faith in America’s young people and I will always cherish my visit to Pack 105,” Peeler said.

This was the third consecutive year the scouts have shipped packages to deployed Hoosier soldiers.

Dave Chapman carves his niche in Zionsville one customer at a time

Famous Faces in Big Dave’s

By Dawn Pearson • dawn@youarecurrent.com Big Dave is known in these parts.

The meats his delicatessen serves are, in a word, unbeatable to many, and his heart is a big as all outdoors, cover story according to his employees and customers who have followed him from Indianapolis to Zionsville to Carmel and back to Zionsville the last three decades.

Dave Chapman, 66, has been slicing his way to a loyal following for 14 years from his restaurant, Big Dave’s Deli, 1225 W. Oak Street.

Chapman arrived in Zionsville in the late 1980s when a friend told him there was a job opening as a butcher for the former Quik Check Market (it’s now an antique mall) on Main Street. It was there his reputation of excellent customer service began evolving, and word got out to locals and celebrities. Big Dave has a story and a memory of all of them.

“I drove up here, and had never been to Zionsville before in my life, I had never worked in a small town and I enjoyed it immensely,” Chapman said.

Working at the Quik Check Market until it’s closing in 1994, Chapman went to work for O’Malia’s Food Markets in Carmel. Many Zionsville residents followed him for his customer service. “I worked there four years and it was my customers that brought me back to Zionsville,” he said, sitting in a booth at Big Dave’s, where he is most at home. “‘Come back to Zionsville,’ I heard all the time, and was told that the woman that owned a bagel store wanted (to get) out of her business. I called her, and she said, ‘Bring me the money tonight and I’ll give you the keys!’”

• Bob Knight: “We were real busy, and one of the teenagers that worked for me said, ‘Big Dave, there’s some old coach out here’. I had to tell that young man the old coach he was talking about was The General! Ham salad is The General’s favorite when he’s here in town.”

• Dallas Clark: “We got to be good friends. He’s now in Baltimore. I got an email from him a couple months ago and he was heading towards a meat department, and his son said, ‘Dave’s, Daddy?’”

• “A gentleman that is a spokesperson for a famous sub shop stopped in, (and) one of my customers said, ‘Do you want me to take a photo of him and you with my cell?’” he said. “Well the poor man probably wouldn’t want to be seen in Big Dave’s deli, and may have to go running out of my building!”

• And Big Dave laughed about asking Rik Smits, former Indiana Pacers center, if he played basketball in high school. “The next day Smits’ wife came in to order several sandwiches and she reported that Rik said the sandwiches were great, but he didn’t know about the big guy there.”

“We want people to feel like they are at their uncle’s or friend’s house. If they want something to eat and if they feel like they are at their relative’s home, then I’ve done my job,” he said.

Big Dave’s heart is as big as his nickname. Just ask any of his employees.

Martin Klekovski, is Chapman’s right-hand man and said they met by accident, and because of Dave’s kindness.

“I walked in here one day, the very day I got my green card, and I thought I would just go to Big Dave’s and have a cup of coffee to celebrate., Klekovski remembers. “He (Big Dave) asked me if I needed a job, so I gave him my phone number and said, ‘Call me,’ and started working the next day and have been ever since 2007.

We work well together. Dave works well with anyone.”

Chapman calls himself Martin’s American dad, and now Klekovski is an American citizen.

Patrons enjoy the ’50s theme and casual atmosphere.

So Big Dave purchased the former DiAmico Bagel shop, moved back to Zionsville and opened Big Dave’s Deli in August 2000.

“Zionsville is where I wanted to be. I love everything about this town. It’s small and the people are wonderful,” Chapman said.

“This community has embraced me, supported me. Way back in the day, I would go to The Friendly Tavern on Thursday nights when I knew all the locals would be there, and I took a pad and would be eating my dinner and many customers would come up to me and say, ‘Oh, Dave, would you cut this for me, and or order something special?’, and by the time I left on Thursday evening, I had Friday’s business day of orders,” he said.

His ‘50s-themed deli is the definition of that small-town, homey

Doreen Supan followed Chapman from O’Malia’s and has worked for him since he opened the doors. “Dave and I go way back and all I can say at the end of a day is that Dave really puts himself out for a lot of people,” she said. “If someone doesn’t have any money to pay today for their meal, he gladly feeds them till they can pay him.” Klekovski added, “Sometimes he’s paid back, and sometimes … well, it’s OK.” Supan told a story about one very cold day when eight construction workers came in for lunch. Only five of them had lunch money and three of them just came in to get warm. Chapman served the three lunch and thanked them for their hard work.

“He had a great heart. He’s good people,” Supan said.

Their team work,s too. Chapman has a “house mom” in Supan.

“She never complains, and keeps the place from falling apart,” he said as all three were laughing.

And Zionsville residents speak of his customer service.

Jane Bruce has been one of his customers since his days at the Quik Check Market. “Janie came in for lunch just before Thanksgiving and I had to remind her of her annual oyster order and her cranberry relish. She said, “Oh, Dave, how would I have the holidays without you?”

FROM THE B A C KS H O P This legislation needs more teeth Sometimes news, after a time, fades so far into the background of day-to-day life that we tend to forget about it. It’s natural. We’re all going in different directions as we manage our work, home and social existences. Some news elements, though, bear refreshment for all of us. As we were headed toward New Year’s Eve, state Sen. Jim Merritt (R-Indianapolis), he of the overly important Lifeline Law about which we wrote much a little more than a year ago, has promised to introduce legislation when the General Assembly convenes. We like the way he’s thinking, when he says the state’s sentencing protocol needs to be more stringent for those found guilty of commission of a violent crime when using a firearm. “We can no longer tolerate home invasions, violent crimes, senseless shootings and murders in our communities,” Merritt astutely said late last month. “I believe we need to strengthen penalties against violent offenders throughout Indiana to keep them off our streets.”

Prevailing law limits prosecutors and judges to issue an additional five years of imprisonment for violent offenders using a firearm during a crime. Merritt wants to make stronger the existing statute by adding language that makes sentence enhancement mandatory for violent offenders committing crimes using a firearm and increasing the additional fixed term of imprisonment to 20 years minimum.

We urge all our elected officials, as well as chiefs of police and county sheriffs, to get behind Merritt’s proposal. And as for the Legislature, enacting the measure should be one of the first orders of business and a real no-brainer. In the end, we hopefully will have more of a deterrent to such violence, which, in and of itself, is senseless.

FROM THE EDITOR

Community as family

Act your age Commentary by Terry Anker Routinely we demand of our children – “Act your age.” In common parlance, it is intended to send the message that the youngster is somehow falling short of the adult expectation for development of a child of a certain age. In our house, we aspire that our boys have attained sufficient chronological maturity to expect that they restrict the practice of their ultimate Frisbee moves to locations outside of the house!

Certainly, the damage inflicted by a 180 pound six foot tall 17 year-old is far more daunting than that which might be perpetrated by a 3½ foot tall 3 year-old. But is our expectation honestly connected to fear that the Frisbee match might lead to a knocked over Christmas tree or some innate expectation of emotional development tied to the progression of the calendar?

Knowing of my own impending birth anniversary, a longtime friend forwarded a link to an online test claiming the ability, after one offers earnest answers to a retinue of interrogatories to accurately

predict one’s emotional age. In order for the outcome to best approximate correctness, the taker is admonished, one must answer all questions without filter. It is harder to do than one would presume. Questions that might point us towards a younger rating stand out and the temptation is to direct ourselves into the junior category. This impulse is so strikingly contrasted against our own young sons who work to appear emotionally older.

After completing the assessment, the software returned a verdict. I am playing at slightly less than 70% of my age. Initially, I reacted by strutting around a little. How does one post this to Facebook? But before I could make the technology do my bidding, I wondered – is it good to register younger than our biological age? Maybe, it is time to grow-up!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK Yesterday is gone. Tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today. Let us begin.

- Mother Teresa

Well, the new year came in right on time! I hope you feel excited about it as I do. I believe that this year will be bring a renewed excitement to Zionsville. There is a lot riding on all the development going on, the library has a new director, the chamber is moving to a new location on the same street, town council will be electing a new president and vice president, new businesses are opening or will be opening soon; some will be relocating to a new location on the bricks and some are getting a “facelift.” It’s all good and very exciting.

I will miss the holiday lights on Main Street, though. It was very beautiful and had a calming, nostalgic feel to it. I know many organizations have been planning their events calendar and will assess what worked well in previous years and what will be fresh for this year. Yes, I believe it will be a very exciting time for Zionsville. In the two months I’ve been on board at Current, the reoccurring theme I have heard from businesses and residents alike is the sense of community found here. Communities are like families, but bigger, right? Everyone in it has a voice and wants to be heard, included in decision making, want to be acknowledged for things done right and receive constructive feedback when things don’t go quite so right.

That’s all a part of being a member; holding their place in it and accepting responsibility for the growth, cooperation and success of the whole unit, whether it be family or community.

I believe so. I’m committed to do my part and hope you are, too. For the rest of this month, I will be at the Sullivan Munce Cultural Center on Tuesdays from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Each month, I will move around the community, making myself available and open to converse on what matters most to you.

BELIEVE IT! Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share one with you. In New Jersey drivers must warn those who they pass on highways before they do so.

The holidays are over, and I finally have a moment to sit down and assess. What went well and what didn’t? What changes, humor if any, should we make for next year? What gift already is broken and should never have been purchased in the first place? I like to do this exercise, because not only does it cement memories into my rapidly aging brain, but it also forces me to appreciate family, however chaotic our time together was.

And it was chaotic. Doo and I spent the weekend before Christmas with my parents, four sisters and four brothers-in-law (and 11 children) shopping, cooking, eating, gambling, movie-going and reveling. We were all holed up in two houses, conveniently located directly across the street from one another, and experienced what can only be described as “Camp Morris.” We stayed in the cabin and had to trek up the hill to the main lodge for coffee, food and fellowship. But when you put that many people in close proximity to one another for more than a day, things can turn dicey. Doo and I for example, got into it at our Christmas Eve Eve’s dinner, and didn’t speak to each other until the next morning. Even worse, a stomach bug ripped through the campgrounds a mere 12 hours after our departure. Good times, good times.

We saw our own share of puke on Christmas Day at the Wilsons’ gathering, in addition to

WANDERING AROUND Z-VILLE

Where’s Julie this week?

Google search and there are actually awards for the most generous towns, but many are based on monetary donations. Money is important; what about time? What about those volunteers who showed up at 4:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve on Hawk’s lawn to make his Christmas wish come true? If that isn’t an award winner, I don’t know what is.

I am currently working on a story on Zionsville groups who have made an impact on the community and beyond. If you have a project or person you would like to include, please let me know. I will likely have to allocate extra space for this story - probably the whole paper!

And my wandering continues in the most charitable town in America.

Four words. That’s how it started.

“I have an idea,” Leigh Ann Akard said. For those of you who know her, this is not the first time you have heard these words, and I’m certain, won’t be the last. But, it was those four words that empowered a small group of Zionsville residents to grant a Christmas wish to a local 12-year-old boy with special needs.

You have likely read the story by now of Hawk and his mother, who were isolated and without transportation. At the VIP Christmas event on Dec. 6, Hawk’s wish to Santa was for a van so his family could get around. This is where the seed was planted and volunteers, like Akard and others, took action. On Christmas Eve, a van arrived filled with presents including groceries, gift cards, gas cards, and food for Hawk’s service dog, Tanner, while carolers sang on their lawn.

The next day a stranger appeared at their door with a television.

Four words, a group of volunteers, a wish to Santa and the rest is history.

As great as this story is, it is not an unusual one, not in Zionsville, at least. After wandering around town for more than a year, I can say with certainty that if there was an award for the most charitable town in America, Zionsville would be a contender. In fact, I just did a quick

vicariously reliving the woes of parenting small children hopped up on Santa’s visit, candy canes and sleep deprivation. Doo and I could sit comfortably while bedlam ensued (this side has 21 grandchildren, several of whom became armed with marshmallow-shooting guns at some point in the afternoon), commiserating with our suffering comrades and ensuring them that they just had to survive another four to six years for Christmas to be fun again. Throw in a heated tradition vs. change conversation, a couple of kids who didn’t get what they wanted, and the aforementioned vomiting toddler, and you’ve got a fairly standard holiday gathering. More good times, indeed.

In the heat of the moment, it’s difficult to clearly determine how things went. But now that the tree is down (though I am still finding tinsel) and we’re all back into our normal routines, I can honestly rate the 2013 festivities as an A-.

We’ll probably make a few slight changes to next year’s holiday schedule, but given that we successfully spent quality time with two large families without offing ourselves or a minion, I’d say it went pretty well. Hope yours did too.

Peace out.

A year of laughter

New years, how about a new date?

Commentary by Mike Redmond New Year’s has never been high on my list of holidays. I know there are people out there who love nothing more than ringhumor ing out the old and ringing in the new, but I’m not among them.

Maybe my ringer’s busted.

Most years I’ve had my glass of celebratory ginger ale and made my way to bed long before the celebratory ball drops at Times Square and the celebratory gunfire begins in my neighborhood. I’m not exactly Mr.-Wild-And-Crazy-Kiss-AtMidnight-Party-Animal, is what I’m trying to say.

I guess I just have too many issues, beginning with the fact that New Year’s had always seemed kind of arbitrary to me. Who decided Jan. 1 ought to commence the year? Did they take a vote? Why wasn’t I notified? Isn’t this unconstitutional? Didn’t the Founding Fathers have something to say about this? Like I said, issues.

Given the chance, I would argue for a New Year’s that made more sense. For example, if it has to be this time of year, why not start it on the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year? You know, start small and work your way up to the rest of the year.

Or how about the day after the winter solstice?

Let the days dwindle down until the very last one when we’re only getting a few hours of daylight, and then presto! We turn the calendar and they start getting long again. Happy New Year.

Even better, why not start the year with the spring equinox? That would be a nice, fresh beginning. The old year dies with winter and then voila! The new year comes in all sweet and green and lovely.

Now, of course, I realize my ideas wouldn’t work for the following reasons: 1. They don’t take into account the Southern Hemisphere. Our winter solstice is their summer solstice. We can’t very well have the two halves of the earth in different years, can we? It’s weird enough the way it is now, with all those Australian bathtub drains that swirl the wrong way, and all those different stars in the Brazilian sky.

2. We can’t start the year with spring in this state because this is Indiana, and we’re usually good for a blizzard or two well after the equinox. The whole idea with spring was to get New Year’s away from that kind of weather.

Besides, our January New Year isn’t the only one on the calendar, not by a long shot. These new years are scattered all over the calendar but, through them all runs a common thread of reflection and renewal. And no matter when it happens, that is a good step, I think, toward making any New Year a happy one.

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

This is the time of year when I acknowledge all the people who made my job as a humorist a little bit easier. Every column humor I write – there has never been an exception – is based on truth, something that really happened to me or someone I know, or a story in the news. So here’s a big thank you to a few of my sources.…

The old “Emily Post Etiquette” book I found in my basement that contains some traditional tips on proper manners. Post advises to never shake your napkin when opening it, which has put a damper on my first magic trick each night.

The European food conglomerate that “withdrew” one of their frozen appetizers from supermarket shelves because the meat allegedly came from retired thoroughbreds. In racing terminology, horses are not “withdrawn,” but no consumer wants to hear: “Effective immediately, we are scratching our Swedish meatballs.”

The fashion design company lululemon. After discovering their yoga tights became translucent when stretched, they issued this unfortunate press release: “The company is pulling its pants down off the shelves.”

The country of Iceland, where apparently too many intimate relationships are between distant cousins. The problem is that most of the Icelandic natives hail from the same ninthcentury Viking settlers whose descendants

never left the island. (Except those who went to Hollywood to make Capital One commercials.)

My wife, who was bitten by our cat. The bite swelled while we were with some friends so we all went to the emergency room with Mary Ellen. The Wolfsies have good health insurance, making it a cheaper night out than a movie.

The folks at Hammacher Schlemmer, whose early Christmas catalogue featured a Shark Bait sleeping bag for kids. It contained this endorsement: “It facilitates sleep, even while the child appears as though he is being digested.” Don’t buy one. In two weeks, they’ll be on Craigslist at a fraction of the price.

Jamie Lee Curtis, whose commercial for Activia begins with, “I’m having an affair with my yogurt.” This is a great way to get a yeast infection. Or is it the best way to avoid one? I have no idea. I’m a guy.

And finally, on a serious note, a thank you to myself for resisting the advice of a wellmeaning emergency care veterinarian who recommended seven months ago that I put my then-ailing beagle to sleep because he probably only had a few days to live. I have to go now.

Toby wants to go for a walk.

New exhibit chronicles ’60s theatre changes

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com Boy meets girl and falls in love. Boy loses girl at the end of the first act, and we all head to the lobby for intermission. Boy theatre and girl resolve their differences at the end of the second act.

Everyone lives happily ever after, and we all leave the theatre humming the title tune.

This formula applied to nearly every Broadway musical written before the 1960s. But as a social revolution bubbled to the surface across the country, those changing times reflected back on us from the footlights of the Broadway stage. Suddenly, musical theatre was dealing with themes of oppression, discrimination, abortion, women’s rights, the draft and socialism.

This paradigm shift is chronicled at the Michael Feinstein Initiative’s new exhibit, “A Change is Gonna Come; 1960s Broadway Musicals,” which opened Jan. 6, and will run through most of this year.

“As we celebrate the 50th anniversaries of many of the musicals from this period, it’s a great time to look back,” said Lisa Lobdell, archivist for the Feinstein Initiative. “The ’60s ushered in a period where we were less afraid to tackle difficult topics in the theatre. It opened the door for modern-day musicals like ‘The Book of Mormon,’ in which we not only address, but poke fun at, our deeply held beliefs. Before the ’60s, every musical was tied to the Great American Songbook, and the songs from the hit shows of the time dominated the radio as well.

It was during this era that Broadway found its own way, and the shows really started to have a social impact. It was a very important time.”

The exhibit features floor to ceiling posters,

original playbills, memorabilia and interactive touchscreens which showcase the seminal musicals of the ’60s. One of the major trends that define the period is the rise of shows written to star women - who may or may not have had or needed a man by the end of the show - such as “Mame,” “Hello, Dolly!,” “The Unsinkable Molly Brown,” “Funny Girl” and “Cabaret.”

The centerpiece of the exhibit is the handpainted and hand-beaded, black sequined Halston jacket that Liza Minelli wore in the original Broadway production of “Cabaret,” which touched on such taboo topics as abortion and Nazism.

Other shows explored emerging themes of the changing times, such as oppression (“Man of La Mancha,”) free love and revolution (“Hair” and “Oh, Calcutta!”) discrimination (“Fiddler on the Roof,”) the generation gap (“The Fantasticks,”) divorce (“110 in the Shade,”) and hopes, dreams and talents quashed by the draft (“Bye Bye Birdie”).

Playwright and Carmel resident MaryAnne Mathews believes that former first lady Mary Todd Lincoln deserves to tell her theatre own story in her own words.

So she penned a one-woman play entitled, “Mrs. President: A Visit with Mary Todd Lincoln,” that is funny, poignant and at times heartbreaking, and she’ll stage a production at the Carmel Theatre Company’s Studio 15 starting Jan.10.

As a history buff and retired social studies teacher, Mathews became interested in Mary Todd Lincoln’s life after she portrayed her in the 2012 production of “A. Lincoln: A Pioneer Story” at the Lincoln Amphitheater in Lincoln City, Ind. “I started researching her and I became really interested in all the different portrayals of her.

Everything she did was construed in the most negative way,” Mathews said.

“Mary Lincoln was very intelligent and had positive qualities. It’s unfair that all people know is that she had mental problems. So unfair. She had reasons for her actions. I wanted to focus on what it was like to be her from her perspective,” she said. “I started doing a lot of reading and research to portray her in more of a full way and not as just a one dimensional figure.”

The play focuses on the end of her life in the early 1880s at the last place she lived - her sister Elizabeth’s house in Springfield, Ill. During the visit,

MaryAnne Mathews protray Mary Todd Lincoln in a one-woman play show wrote. (Submitted photo)

Mary reminisces about her childhood, her meeting and courtship with Abraham Lincoln, her life as a young mother and life in the White House.

Following a brief intermission, Mathews will perform as herself in “Remembering Gettysburg,” a 40-minute program of story and songs of the Civil War, commemorating the 150th Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg and the dedication of the National Cemetery.

The performance includes an original song written by Mathews, “Remembering Gettysburg.”

There will be a question and answer session following the last performance for individuals interested in discussing the play or the process of writing and producing a play.

“Mrs. President: A Visit with Mary Todd Lincoln” and “Remembering Gettysburg” • Carmel Theatre Company’s Studio 15 • 15 First Avenue N.E. in Carmel • 7 p.m. Jan. 10 and Jan. 11; 2 p.m.

It used to be that living to 75 amounted to a nice long life and Social Security often was supplemented by a pension. How planning different things are today.

The good news is that life expectancy for U.S. women – as measured by the Centers for Disease Control – is now 81.1 years.

The Social Security administration estimates that the average 65-year-old woman today will live to be 86.

Are you prepared for a 20-year retirement?

How about a 30- or 40-year retirement? Don’t laugh, it could happen: the Social Security administration predicts that about 25 percent of today’s 65-year-olds will live past 90, with approximately 10 percent living to be older than 95.

The following are some strategies to consider: Plan your investing Many people retire with a random collection of investments and no real strategy. Some are big on “chasing the return” – assuming risk they really shouldn’t in pursuit of a high return. Others are very risk-averse, so fearful of what stocks might do that they stay out of the market entirely.

In the current low interest rate environment, that represents an easy way to fall behind and lose purchasing power to inflation.

Find a middle ground When you are in your 50s, you have less time to make back any big investment losses than you once did. Protecting what you have is a

priority. At the same time, the possibility of a 15-, 20-, or even 30- or 40-year retirement means you have to keep a foot, if not both feet, in some kind of growth investing. Your initial retirement nest egg has to keep growing.

Look at long-term care coverage Medicare is no substitute for long-term care insurance; it only pays for 100 days of nursing home care, and only if you get skilled care and enter a nursing home right after a hospital stay of three or more days. Long-term care coverage can provide a huge financial relief if and when the need arises.

Claim Social Security carefully If your career and health permit, delaying Social Security is a wise move. If you wait until retirement age to claim your benefits, you could receive 30 to 40 percent larger social security payments as a result.

Married women can look at spousal claiming strategies such as the “file and suspend” approach and claiming spousal benefits first. This may help to maximize the Social Security benefits you and your spouse received.

Above all, retire with a plan and stick to that plan.

IU Health and UnitedHealthcare have been in negotiations to reach an agreement for 2014, but a new agreement was not coverage finalized before the contract expiration date on Dec. 31, 2013. Discussions will continue in January.

Therefore, as of Jan. 1, IU Health and IU Health Physician doctors and facilities will become out-of-network for most patients covered under UnitedHealthcare health insurance. But IU Health has made the decision to treat UnitedHealthcare patients and their portion of the bill as ‘in-network’ to help avoid disruption of care and help reduce the patient’s overall costs.

“This decision is consistent with our commitment to ensuring patients have access to nationally recognized care,” said Dr. John C. Kohne, chief medical officer, Indiana University Health.

“We know patients value the relationship with their physician and health care team, and we

want to help them maintain those relationships without unnecessary disruption.”

This special in-network status means that UnitedHealthcare patients may continue to receive care from IU Health doctors and IU Health facilities, but are responsible for any innetwork deductible and co-pay fees. This special in-network status will apply to the portion of a patient’s bill that is based on the 2014 benefit levels.

No immediate steps are required to receive this in-network status. Patients are encouraged to schedule appointments and visit care providers as they normally would. If a patient sees their IU Health provider and receives a statement that includes fees higher than anticipated (out of network fees, for example), they should call the number listed on the statement and the fees will be adjusted to in-network costs.

In the meantime, IU Health continues to be committed to working toward an agreement with UnitedHealthCare.

Merry Christmas & Thank You! Andrew Luck, quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts, reviews schoolwork with Riley Hospital patient, Emily Hume, 12, of Seymour, (Submitted photo)

Luck supports Riley Hospital news@currentzionsville.com

Andrew Luck, quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts, is deepening his commitment to Riley Hospital for Children at giving back Indiana University Health by supporting the Riley at IU Health School Program, which ensures that young patients can stay on track academically while hospitalized.

Luck’s initial relationship with Riley at IU Health began in April with the launch of the “Change the Play” program, an initiative he helped develop in partnership with Riley at IU Health designed to teach kids how to be the quarterback of their health and wellness.

Staffed by seven licensed teachers, the program coordinates assignments with patients’ schools and provides tutoring opportunities to all inpatients in kindergarten through grade 12 throughout their hospital stay.

Emily Hume, 12, of Seymour, has been hospitalized since July 4 due to a mysterious heart virus.

Hume is tethered to the Berlin Heart device, a machine that allows her heart to regain its strength. To keep up with her studies, she works with a Riley at IU Health teacher each day - even Skyping at times with her hometown teachers and classmates.

“If this program didn’t exist, I’d have weeks and weeks of homework to catch up on when I go home,” Hume stated. “It helps prevent me from having to repeat the seventh grade.”

Despite being in the hospital, Hume recently achieved her goal of earning straight A’s, landing her a spot on the high honor roll.

Luck will volunteer some of his free time to help patients complete homework assignments, science experiments and other fun-filled educational activities at the hospital.

In addition, Luck is donating personal funds to Riley Children’s Foundation to enrich the Riley at IU Health School Program. Two of his supporters, companies Chegg and Lenovo, are also providing free textbooks and tablets to patients and program staff.

“Ensuring children have access to a good education and seamless learning is something I’m passionate about,” Luck stated. “Helping support the Riley School Program is incredibly important to me because no child should have his or her academic goals sidelined by illness or injury.”

The Change the Play initiative emphasizes the importance of physical fitness and good nutrition, and teaches kids to take care of themselves holistically by exercising their minds, keeping stress in check, getting sufficient sleep and modeling positive health behaviors to peers and family members.

dispatch Event to educate, inspire women – Riverview Hospital will host a Women’s Health & Wellness Event from 8 a.m. to noon Jan. 18 at the hospital, 395 Westfield Rd., Noblesville.

Good taste and good design Commentary by Vicky Earley

The basic rules of proportion and scale are unchanging. They are reinterpreted according to the needs of the time. I decorating like simplicity and I believe in restraint. Above all, there should be harmony – of proportion, line, color, and feeling. The most important element in decorating is the relationship between objects – in size, form, texture, color, and meaning. None of these is in good taste in itself but only in relationship to where it has been placed and what purpose it is to serve. – Eleanor McMillen Brown Interior design is about the big picture and the big picture works when it is the result of a carefully planned compilation of elements and principles.

Good taste, on the other hand, is the sum of one’s life experience and one’s exposure.

A person can be born with a sense of design, while the quality of good taste is gleaned, collected and polished.

When it is assumed that good taste will trump a sense of good design, there is a very good chance that a space will appear haphazard and chaotic and be less than satisfactory.

These principles are basic to all good design and must be treated with respect only altered with great care.

Balance I have worked with a number of clients who have insisted that symmetry is essential to livability in their space. In reality, they were saying that they crave one the foundations to good design … balance. Balance can’t be measured - it is felt. It is the visual equilibrium of a room which is achieved by the placement of objects according to visual weight. Shape, color and texture all help to determine their visual weight.

Focus This refers to the direction the eye travels and remains as it first enters a space. A multitude of focal points in a room make it quite uncomfortable as there is no place for the eye to rest. Good design guides the eye gracefully through the space with carefully selected focal points.

Harmony This is achieved when the elements of a room work together to form a visually pleasing cohe-

siveness with the proper balance of variety and unity. Harmony in design is similarity of components or objects looking like they belong together. This unity can be defined as a design thread that tells a story from one element to another.

This also applies to the mood of the pieces.

Whimsical does not play well with elegant even if all the other elements fall in line.

Proportion and scale: Ah, proportion and his best friend scale. This is something too often missed when purchasing furniture from a big box furniture store. Thirty foot ceilings are far different than nine foot ceilings and this is a road to disaster. Technically, proportion refers to how the elements within an object relate to the object as a whole while scale relates to the size of an object compared to the space in which it is located.

Rhythm The rhythm of a room controls the visual flow around a room. Rhythm allows the eyes to move around from one object to another and creates a harmonious atmosphere in a room.

Just as one with good taste might appreciate a painting, it does not mean that the same person could execute such a piece of art. The same is true with good design.

Clicker train and treat your dog’s behavior

Commentary by Lisa Beals

January is train your dog month. Although I think I wrote about a dog training topic last January, I believe it’s much like our own pets fitness-based New Year’s resolutions – we probably gave up on our resolution for training our dog in mid-January. So today we are going to review clicker training, a positive reinforcement-based training that you can easily use with your dog.

First you will need a clicker. These small handheld devices can be purchased for a nominal fee from any pet store. Clicker training is based on the concept that you will either lure or capture a desirable behavior and mark it with the clicker sound, thereby indicating to the dog he is doing something right. For example, if you are attempting to teach a dog to sit, you can lure the dog from a stand to sit by using a treat to move the dog’s nose up and head back, thereby resulting

in his rear end automatically lowering down to the floor. As soon as the dog’s hind end contacts the floor, you would click the clicker and deliver the treat. Eventually, you would fade the treat from the training and the dog would simply respond to the sound of the clicker.

Timing is critical; you should click while the behavior is occurring. You can also capture the behavior you want to reinforce by clicking when the dog is performing the desired behavior. For example, as you are sitting in your easy chair and watching your favorite TV program, you observe your dog walking around the living room. As he approaches you, he starts to sit down to be petted.

While he is in the process of sitting, you click.

In the same manner you could also capture the behavior of him going to his favorite bed.

Same scenario: You are watching TV from a distance and as you notice him going to lay down on his bed, you click. You could also be close enough to him to deliver a treat as he lays down

on his bed. This is the beauty of clicker-training; it can be trained with your dog near you or reinforced remotely.

Ideally clicker-training should be limited to several three to four minute-sessions instead of longer intense sessions. You can also rid your dog of undesirable behaviors by rewarding good behaviors. For example, if your dog has a problem jumping on you or visitors to your house, you can click when your dog is greeting someone and his paws are still on the ground.

If you are working on house training, you would pair the clicker with the dog soiling in the proper spot. You could even shape the behavior to teach your dog to soil in one particular spot of the yard.

Service dogs can be trained in a variety of positive reinforcement methods, but clicker training is an effective way to teach dogs to open doors, target switches, or retrieve items for their owners. Karen Pryor is the guru of clicker train-

ing and her Website, www.clickertraining.com, offers many more tips to use the clicker to train your dog for fun and obedience.

Luring: To lure the sit from a stand, use a piece of food to draw your dog’s nose up and back. As his head goes back, his rear end will naturally go down. Click at the moment his rear touches the ground, then let him have the treat.

Capture: To capture the sit, simply wait until the dog sits down. Click at the instant his rear hits the ground and give him a treat right away.

If you’re training for competition, a sit is more complex. It has additional requirements like “tucked,” “square,” and “straight.” Each of those requirements is a criterion to be shaped.

King Ludwig’s fairy tale castle

If the castle in the picture looks familiar, but you have never been to Germany, the explanation is not a prior life as a Bavarian travel prince. The castle, built by an eccentric king deposed for claimed insanity, is the model for Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty castles.

Ludwig II became king of Bavaria in 1864 at age 18. Shy and aloof, Ludwig loved theatre and the operas of Richard Wagner, whose career he rescued. Ludwig particularly admired tales of medieval kings in fairy tale castles. So in 1869, relying on his personal fortune, he began building a refuge in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps to match his fantasies. Conceived by a set designer, the plans envisioned a 65,000-square-foot castle with Romanesque towers and 200 lavishly appointed rooms.

By 1885, only about 15 rooms had been completed, including a throneless throne room inspired by Turkey’s Hagia Sophia. Because of Ludwig’s ever more grandiose ideas, construction costs were already double the original budget and Ludwig was deeply in debt. Some of the extra costs were incurred installing the latest technology, including electric bells to summon the staff.

After Ludwig had stayed in his unfinished castle about six months, his ministers had him declared insane. The evidence included little more than his obvious obsession with the castle. On

June 12, 1886, Ludwig was deposed and the next day he was found dead in waist-deep water in Lake Starnberg. The death was labeled a suicide by drowning, but many suspect he was murdered. Ludwig’s body was interred in Munich’s St. Michael’s Church and his heart placed in an urn in a chapel in the Bavarian town of Altötting.

After Ludwig’s death, his castle was named “Neuschwanstein” (New Swan Stone) and its few completed rooms, some decorated with frescoes representing Wagner’s operas, were opened to a paying public. Today, the king once derided as

“Mad Ludwig” is beloved by Bavarians, in part because of the enormous popularity of his castle.

Every day in the summer, about 6,000 visitors to Neuschwanstein pour money into Bavaria’s economy, helping make it the richest state in Germany. King Ludwig, take a bow.

This whole-house remodel features a new kitchen

Commentary by Larry Greene

Existing home: Located in the Village Farms neighborhood in Carmblueprint for el, this improvement 1990 home was too dark for the homeowner. “It was not to my taste,” the homeowner stated. “I bought the house for the floor plan. It suited my elderly father with the bedrooms all on the first floor. But the décor was not for me. I like light and bright and it was dark.”

The goal of the design involved renovating the basement and the entire first floor of the home.

Kitchen design: The kitchen design focused on adding functionality and considering aging-inplace standards. Recessed can lights on dimmer switches and new LED under-cabinet lighting was installed. Rather than have the worry of the damaging hardwood floors with spills, tile flooring was installed. The design took into account the elderly father who is hearing impaired. A custom cabinet was designed to hold a special lighted phone for the father. This area also doubled as an organizational spot for the home.

Cabinetry changes: New white painted

before & after

maple cabinets were installed all the way to the ceiling to eliminate the need for dusting. “I was originally hoping to have transom cabinets with glass doors, but they didn’t fit into our budget,” said the homeowner. “Our designer suggested adding two cabinets with glass inserts as a compromise. These allow me to display my family heirlooms.”

Kitchen details: Granite countertops in Blue Pearl are complimented by the backsplash done

Final Results: The homeowner was very sensitive to the needs of her elderly father and her future needs as she ages in the home. The color pallet of the kitchen was also important. She knew she wanted yellow, blue and white. Those elements were brought into the design.

in Carrera marble three- by six-inch tiles installed in a brick pattern. Medium blue walls connect the blue countertops to the rest of the space. Stainless steel appliances, antique pewter hardware, and brushed nickel lighting add to the bright feel of the new kitchen.
