Boone County 2018 general election results

By Sara Baldwin Schatz • sara@youarecurrent.com Boone County voters waited in lines at polling sites to cast votes Nov. 6 for as little as 10 minutes to as long as 45 minutes. Voters registered in Boone County can vote at any of the official vote center locations in the county.

Just before noon Nov. 6, voters reported waiting for less than five minutes at the Boone County Courthouse in Lebanon. Freedom Church in Lebanon also had a wait time of less than five minutes. The wait times at Zionsville Town Hall were reported to be just above 30 minutes from 8 a.m. to noon, and closer to 45 minutes from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Whitestown Municipal Building had an average wait time of 45 minutes. Voters reported waiting 45 minutes to more than an hour at Zionsville Presbyterian Church.

Zionsville resident Monica Macik said she experienced a 45-minute wait around 3 p.m. at Zionsville Town Hall.

“The parking lot was packed and I was lucky to find a parking spot,” Macik said.

Boone County officials announced the Indiana 2018 midterm election results shortly after 8 p.m. Nov. 6.

For Zionsvlle Middle School eighth-grader Louise MacKay, it was love at first skate.

“My husband FIGURE SKATING and I have only recreationally public skated,” said Karen MacKay, Louise’s mother. “We took Louise to Carmel Ice Skadium when she was 4 to skate and she’s not stopped since.”

MacKay, 13, won the Intermediate Ladies Excel Division at the U.S. Figure Skating’s Eastern Great Lakes Regional, covering several states, in Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 21.

“I’ve won other smaller competitions, but regionals is the first big competition I’ve won,” MacKay said. “The highest I placed in regionals (previously) was fourth place two years ago.”

MacKay, who will compete in the Nov. 1517 state championships in South Bend, said her training made the difference in freeskate performance.

“I’ve been training harder for this,” MacKay said. “I put in more hours at my rink in Carmel, so that made it easier to complete all my elements. It was a new routine and I had a lot of new elements in it. They were harder elements and the judges liked it more.”

MacKay selected music from “Narnia” and “Harry Potter” movies for her 2-minute, 40-second routine.

MacKay trains at the Ice Skadium, where she is coached by Marie Millikan (formerly Vichova), a 1968 Winter Olympian from Czechoslovakia. MacKay, a member of the Ice Skating Club of Indianapolis, has been working with Millikan for seven years.

“I started after I took the Learn to Skate lessons and I loved it,” MacKay said. “I started competing and joined the club.”

MacKay competed in soccer and gymnastics when she was younger. She also competed in girls cross country at ZMS this fall.

She does strength and conditioning train-

ing, as well as ballet, to help with her skating. MacKay won five gold medals at the state competition in 2017.

“I hope to do the same because I’m competing a level up, so I’m going to see if I can get five medals again,” MacKay said. “A longterm goal for me is to compete in a national competition.”

MacKay is learning how to do a double-axel.

DISPATCHES Location correction — In reference to an article published Nov. 3 about Pet Wellness Center’s grand opening, the Pet Wellness Center is in Whitestown.

Leaf Collection Scheduled through Dec. 7 — The Town of Zionsville’s Street & Stormwater Dept. will provide curbside leaf collection for residents in the Zionsville urban district through Dec. 7, and may be extended to mid-December if necessary.

The service varies each week. There is no

set schedule or particular day for leaf collection as the volume of leaves placed for collection cannot be controlled or predicted.

The Street & Stormwater Dept. asks that residents rake leaves into long narrow piles along the curb. Do not place sticks, pine cones, gravel or other non-leaf objects in your piles. Any damage to the leaf vacuums can delay collection. Clear streets will make collection quicker. For more, call 317-873-4544 or visit zionsville-in.gov/153/ Leaf-Collection.

The Conversation Game is designed to encourage sharing personal stories to deepen relationships.

Game aims to spark conversation

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com It’s a game with a silly name but a simple goal: Unite people through the power of conversation.

ENTERTAINMENT Poobah – the Conversation Game is the brainchild of brothers Brent, Brad and Ryan Rockwood.

“Each of us has a pretty unique personality, and we wanted a unique name.

Something that stood out and was catchy, but also silly,” said Brad, a Carmel resident.

“Game play requires that a person lead each conversation and then select a winner. And at the end of the game, the person receiving the most votes is crowned the winner. But really, the game is about the journey, not the destination, so we wanted to select a name that was a light-hearted take on ‘winner.’ We came across ‘The Grand Poobah’ and it fit like a glove.”

The idea for the game was sparked when Zionsville resident Brent and his wife, Angie, created a game called High-Low-Silly-Smart to play with their kids. During the game, each person shared a high and low point of their day as well as something silly and something learned that day. That led to a prototype game with friends providing positive feedback.

The Poobah game has 250 cards in five categories relevant for ages 7 and older. It is designed to encourage sharing personal stories to deepen relationships, improve confidence and decision-making, voice opinions, listen to different perspectives, showcase creativity and role-play situations. It aims to spark laughter and make the most

of family time.

“Our parents, who have been married over 40 years, found themselves discovering new things about each other when playing Poobah, like when our dad said the worst movie ever made was ‘Reefer Madness,’” Brad said. “It’s a great conversation starter outside of the house as well. We’ve seen Poobah used as an icebreaker at corporate functions, in small groups at church, in classrooms.”

Poobah – the Conversation Game is $22. A 30-day project campaign is to be launched on Kickstarter Nov. 13 and end Dec. 14. All contributions will allow the brothers to buy additional inventory while helping publicize the game. A “buy one, donate one” also will be offered with games donated to eligible organizations.

“It’s easy to feel overwhelmed when there are so many competing priorities – careers, households, children’s education, and the list goes on and on,” Brad said. “But there’s a simple solution right in front of us. Start talking with our children about the things that matter.”

Artists’ exhibition open to all-ages emerging talents

By Heather Lusk news@currentzionsville.com Aritsts of all ages, ability and mediums can bring their creations to the SullivanMunce Cultural SULLIVANMUNCE Center Nov. 19 and have it exhibited for a month in “First Come, First Hung.”

“It’s a good starting point for people,” SullivanMunce Executive Director Cynthia Young said. “The very first time you show your work, it’s nerve-wracking, even if it’s one piece in a show like this.”

The “First Come, First Hung” event began when the art center opened in 1981 as a way to celebrate artists of all skill levels.

In previous years, SullivanMunce only accepted a limited number of works, requiring artists to stand in line in the early hours to ensure a spot. Now, it’s open to anyone who brings their art to the gallery at 205 W. Hawthorne St. between 10 a.m. and noon.

“It’s fun to see all different kinds of art-

ists’ visions,” Young said.

Art must be ready to hang with wire so it will work with the art center’s hanging system.

“It would be a proud moment (for artists), I think, to see (their art) hanging in a gallery,” Young said.

Visitors to SullivanMunce can cast a People’s Choice Award vote in three categories: adult, teen and youth. Young has seen submissions such as paintings, ceramics, quilts and hand-painted items.

Artists have the option of selling their art during the exhibit, with a portion of proceeds benefiting SullvanMunce. Young encourages new artists to try selling their work.

“When (artists) first start working, they’re afraid to let go of anything,” she said.

Members and youth may exhibit one item for free. For adult non-members, there is a $15 fee.

What Inspires You? The Zionsville Community High School boys soccer team finished Class 3A state runner-up. (Submitted photo)

It’s the question that matters most to us.

How can we make your home more special and more perfect for the way you live?

Soccer team 2nd in state

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Zionsville Community High School boys soccer coach Rob Jordan knows where his team’s drive came from this SPORTS season.

“Last year’s loss in the first round of sectionals, after completing an undefeated regular season, was the start of the team’s success for this season,” Jordan said.

The Class 3A No. 2 Eagles reached the Indiana High School Athletic Association Boys Soccer Class 3A championship game before losing to No. 1 Chesterton 1-0 in overtime at Carroll Stadium in Indianapolis Oct. 27. The

teams were only 27.4 seconds from a shootout. Chesterton (21-0-2) was state runner-up in 2016 and 2017.

“Both teams allowed less than 10 goals for the entire season and were very good defensive teams,” Jordan said.

The Eagles finished 17-2-3. Jordan said team chemistry was another key to success.

“This is a group who believed in each other, found strength through common struggles and truly gave of themselves to make the team successful,” Jordan said.

“They are friends on and off the field.”

Junior Ben Weidner had team-highs of 12 goals and 11 assists. Senior goalkeeper Sam Allen had 14 shutouts.

Poetry group to open art park

By Maria Cook news@currentzionsville.com Brick Street Poetry, a nonprofit organization that has hosted poetry readings and other programs in Zionsville CULTURE for more than 10 years, plans to open an outdoor space dedicated to the arts in Indianapolis.

Brick Street Poetry purchased property in Indianapolis near IPS School 87 in August.

The organization is raising funds to turn the vacant lot into the Literary Art Park, which will host outdoor summer workshops. According to Brick Street Poetry Program Chair Joyce Brinkman, workshops will teach participants how to garden, how to write prose and poetry and how to turn their writings into works of visual art.

“There is going to be cedar privacy fencing on the lot, and that’s going to serve as the gallery wall for the artwork of the students at the end of the summer,” Brinkman said. “It’s a summer’s worth of these workshops that will culminate in the kids having their artwork hung.”

A rendering of the art park shows a cedar privacy fence that will serve as a gallery wall. It also will have gardens, space to create and outdoor games. (Submitted photo)

Brick Street Poetry wants to raise $5,000 to renovate the Indianapolis lot. The Indiana Housing & Community Development Authority has agreed to donate another $5,000 when the goal is met. Brinkman said the objective of the project is to foster a love of art in young children.

“People who experience this kind of thing when they’re young are people who continue to do it throughout their lifetime,” Brinkman said. “It’s giving them the experience of being at a poetry workshop and creating a piece of artwork so that they don’t think, ‘Oh, an art gallery is not a place I should go.’

We want them to experience this.”

Siro’s celebrates five years

By Sara Baldwin Schatz sara@youarecurrent.com Siro’s Chic Boutique, 285 S Main St. in Zionsville, recently celebrated five years in business with an in-store fashion show.

“We had a fashion show, live music, hors d’oeuvres and wine,” said Siro Derrer-Brooks, owner of Siro’s Chic Boutique.

The fashion show featured six models, each modeling five different outfits, including casual, dressy casual, professional attire, date night and evening wear ensembles. Larry Truitt and Friends provided live music.

“It was an extravaganza,” salesperson Patricia Marchino said.

Marchino said Siro’s carries unique designers such as upscale Canadian collection, Frank Lyman Design.

“Siro’s is one of the few places you can find this line,” Marchino said.

People steal the darndest things Commentary by Ward Degler After weeks of agonizing and hurtful political ads, it’s refreshing to look at some other human foibles. Theft, for example, and some of the outrageous PLAIN TALK things people steal.

In Kansas City, Mo., a few weeks ago, thieves made off with a 10-foot, 150-pound inflatable model of a human colon. The device was created by a medical group to heighten awareness of colon cancer. It was the show-and-tell part of a campaign called “Get Your Rear in Gear.”

It has since been returned. I guess the thief could not hide it any longer.

At the same time in Heraldsburg, Calif., a 21-foot, 800-pound sculpture of a hammer was stolen from the city hall lawn.

In 2000, a man broke into a truck and tried to hotwire it. He failed, but not wanting to leave empty handed, he grabbed a plastic bag that was sitting in the passenger seat. It was full of dog poop that the owner had forgotten to dump after taking his dog for a walk the previous day.

The prize for weird theft, however, goes to two brothers who took a blowtorch one

night and stole a 50-foot steel truss bridge.

They got busted when they tried to sell it to a local scrap metal dealer.

In 1992, a Miami department store reported the theft of $305 worth of pricey buttons cut from designer clothing. Officials later determined the thief to be the wife of Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega.

A woman in Edmonton woke up one morning to discover her front lawn had been stolen. A landscaping company had mistaken her house for someone else’s.

The high-stakes thievery awards go to the guy who drove a gasoline tanker truck into a gas station, filled it up and left without paying; a thief in Germany who stole 11,000 pounds of Nutella; and the guys who carted off 3,000 tons of maple syrup worth $17 million. The syrup thieves were ultimately caught and sentenced to three years in prison, with no pancakes for breakfast.

Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife. He is the author of “The Dark Ages of My Youth ... and Times More Recent.”

WE’LL MAKE YOUR HOLIDAY DREAMS COME TRUE.

Sisters sell festive goods

By Renee Larr news@currentzionsville.com Sisters and Carmel residents Gretchen Harter and Heidi Heldt travel the United States in search of vintage HOLIDAYS home decor. They sell their wares at home shows across the nation under the brand name Hoosier Sister and hold a yearly pop-up at the Farm in Zionsville.

“We started about 5 1/2 years ago. We travel around the country buying vintage items,” Heldt said. “We curate a collection every season, so our product line is constantly changing. It ranges from jewelry to furniture to wall decor, tabletop decor and tables. We also have a candle line we personally hand-make.”

The pair scour many sources for their ever-evolving offerings.

“We buy a lot from the Amish all around Indiana,” Harter said. “We buy from auctions, from flea markets and estate sales.

We also buy handmade items from people

all over the country.”

The sisters average nearly 30 shows per year. They decided travel to shows instead of opening a storefront for a few reasons.

“We’re developing the website, and we want to reach people across the country,” Heldt said. “(Attending shows) is a great way to reach people all over the country because people travel from far away for some of these huge shows. When we do these shows, on any given day we could have 2,000, 3,000 people see our products.”

Hoosier Sister held a holiday pop-up shop Nov. 2 and 3 at the Farm at 460 South 1100 East, Zionsville.

“The holiday pop-up shop is our big annual push of our first offering of our holiday collection,” Harter said. “We had a huge turnout with people coming from different states and from all around Indiana, which is fantastic.”

The sisters’ next show will be the Junior League Holiday Mart Nov. 14-18 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. For more, visit hoosiersister.com or facebook.com/ HoosierSister.

WALK-N-ROLL SUPPORTS SPINA BIFIDA RESEARCH

Sparky the Fire Dog shakes hands with “roller” Jack Mead. The Spina Bifida Association of Indiana hosted its seventh annual Walk-N-Roll event Sept. 22 at Lions Park in Zionsville. The event raises money to support Hoosiers with spina bifida through research, scholarships, education and more.

In addition to taking a lap around the park, kids enjoyed face painting, met fairy princesses and Sparky the Fire Dog, played with therapy dogs provided by Love on a Leash and rode in Corvettes provided by members of Corvette Indy. The kids also had the opportunity to pet exotic animals, from armadillos to owls, provided by Silly Safari. Photographers participated to give the kids a way to remember their day, which included games such as giant Jenga and Connect 4. The event raised nearly $30,000 and was supported by 60 volunteers and attended by 288 guests. For more about the Spina Bifida Association of Indiana, visit sbain.org. For more photos, visit currentzionsville.com.

(Photos by Brad Thompson)

A big part of the event is the Parade of Champions. Prior to the main walk, all of the kids proceed individually through a parade route lined with parents, friends and supporters who cheer them on. Lyjah Cox participates.

A spina bifida sufferer, Maddie Ross, died in 2014 at age 20. Although it’s been four years, Paula Strauss, Maddie’s mother, still comes to the events with a picture of Maddie in her hospital bed. She brings along her crew from Maddie Smiles, a nonprofit they created in Maddie’s memory. Maddie Smiles is dedicated to spreading smiles by performing and encouraging random acts of kindness. Maddie Smiles distributed snow cones during the event. The group is accompanied by four dogs dressed as minions.

LEGION LOOK Why we honor Veterans Day Commentary by Rick Baum, USMC veteran and Zionsville American Legion chaplain Each year, Veterans Day proudly stands as a nationally recognized remembrance on Nov. 11 for those living oath-takers who stood up to serve as the U.S.’s guardians of freedom at whatever the cost. Some are remembered, others forgotten.

Veterans’ love and commitment for our country, freedom and family comes with a demanding and unpredictable price. Many returned home from their service experience indelibly branded, even scarred by the impact on their bodies and minds. Many veterans suffer all the way to their grave.

Make no mistake, the U.S. uniquely stands as the home of the free because of the brave. American wars continuously impact veterans, military families and our nation’s very soul. Without our veterans’ service, there would be no peace.

Monuments and memorials are erected throughout our land to remember the valiant endeavors and heroism that our military personnel of their era sacrificed to

preserve freedom.

We must realize the price of military service leaves widows, fatherless and broken-hearted parents behind, and their lives forever changed. They pay a price in their own way. I personally know this pain because I lost a son four years after he returned from Iraq.

Sadly, 20 veterans commit suicide a day.

Twice as many unsuccessfully attempt it. The VA is committed to improving its outreach and services to honor those who served.

Make an effort this Veterans Day to thank a veteran for serving. Offer a helping hand.

Volunteer at the VA or American Legion and make a difference.

Sweet M’s opens boutique in Whitestown

By Renee Larr • news@currentzionsville.com Sweet M’s Boutique held a grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony Nov. 3 at its new Marketplace at Anson location, 6659 Whitestown Pkwy. in SHOPPING Whitestown.

The women’s and girls clothing and accessories boutique is the third location for owner and Avon resident Stacy Maxwell.

“We started online in November 2015, and in April 2016 we opened our first location in Plainfield,” she said. “We expanded into the Carmel area in June 2017.”

Maxwell was interested in expanding to Whitestown or Zionsville but had difficulty finding a storefront.

“When this became available, we knew it was time to open our third location,” she said.

She felt the area was growing rapidly but didn’t offer much in the way of shopping.

“I’ve heard great things about the community,” Maxwell said. “Everybody has been so welcoming. It just has always seemed like a great area.”

Each location has the same look and offers much of the same merchandise.

“(The stores) won’t always have the same items, but we try to keep it pretty similar,” Maxwell said.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony began at 9 a.m. and the store opened at 10 a.m. The first 25 people in line received a $25 gift card. Sweet M’s also offered 20 percent off

all items at all three locations.

“The grand opening was amazing,” Maxwell said. “We had about 75 people lined up before we opened, and we were busy all day with shoppers. It feels great to finally be open.”

Zionsville teen reunites with doctors who saved his life

By Maria Cook news@currentzionsville.com When Zionsville teen Ryan Bardellini fell from a moving vehicle and fractured his skull in November 2017, COVER STORY his immediate prognosis was not good. He had been out with friends during Thanksgiving break and slipped from the back of a moving SUV. Upon receiving a call from his friend alerting her to the accident, Ryan’s mother, Kimberly Bardellini, rushed to St. Vincent’s Hospital on 86th Street.

“They did not expect him to regain consciousness,” Kimberly said. “It was a very, very bad prognosis.”

Ryan’s neurosurgeon, Dr. Charles Kulwin of Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine, began treating him two days after his accident. Because Ryan’s brain was so swollen, Kulwin didn’t expect him to live.

“When I first saw him, I looked at his injury and frankly thought it was not survivable,” Kulwin said. “I had a fairly frank discussion with his mom, but we said, ‘He’s young, let’s give him a chance.’ And that’s when we did the procedure, taking out half his skull.”

The procedure, a craniectomy, involves removing part of the skull to allow an injured brain to swell. When swelling subsides, another procedure, a cranioplasty, is performed to replace the skull bone.

After the craniectomy, Ryan showed little to no improvement for more than a month.

The right side of his body seemed to be paralyzed. During this time, the section of Ryan’s skull was kept in a medical freezer in Louisville, Ky. “Two months later, you can’t walk around like this. Your brain doesn’t like to not have its shell over it,” Kulwin said. “It was time to put the bone back on.”

According to Kimberly, it was after the second procedure, the cranioplasty, that her son’s condition began to rapidly improve, surprising her as well as doctors.

“We saw almost immediate, remarkable improvement after that. They had been saying, ‘Ryan, can you give a thumbs-up?’

Ryan plans to transfer to Purdue University, choose a major and continue to train in his competitive sport of fencing.

“I’m still fencing.

I used to be the No. 1 fencer in 10 states. Now, I’m like 190-something,” Ryan said. “I’m looking forward to Purdue like crazy. I’m really not sure of a major yet.

HOW IS A CRANIECTOMY PERFORMED? For Ryan Bardellini, a craniectomy was the best hope to regain use of his mind and body.

“The brain was swelling so much, it was starting to accumulate damage to the areas that are going to allow you to be you again,” Dr. Charles Kulwin said. “As a last resort, we will take off a very large window of bone to allow the brain to just swell outward.”

The process of craniectomy involves anesthetization, followed by close monitoring of vital signs. The neurosurgeon makes an incision in the scalp, typically on the side of the head where the most compression is taking place. Once the skin and underlying tissues have been moved aside, a drill is used to make holes in the skull. The holes are connected with a saw and the bone is removed.

“We had to tailor it because his skull was still fairly ripped apart, so we incorporated that into (the removal),” Kulwin said. “His brain used every little bit of space that we got.”

The bone is stored in a freezer in hopes that, when the patient’s brain swelling has subsidDr. Charles Kulwin exhibited an example of ed and their condition is more stable, the bone may be put back in place with a cranioplasty. a craniectomy and cranioplasty.

For Ryan, the cranioplasty was a success.

ESSAY Gift of giving

LETTER Synagogue attacks lead to discouragement, hope

Commentary by Terry Anker Just as sure as the calendar turns and the leaves pile under the trees, our collective thinking lurches forward to the coming season.

Hopes fade for family picnics, turning instead towards a crackling fire in the hearth. Retail stores bring forth holiday merchandise with Thanksgiving granted a passing glance before the looming shopping season. In many homes, Halloween decorations are replaced by the flickering lights of Christmas.

The resolute among us hold out, with tradition dictating proper attention to each celebration. First, we feast on turkey and stuffing.

Then, we plan the roast beef and cranberries. No matter how we mark the season, for most of us it will include giving. We give to those beloved in our homes. We give to our friends and neighbors. We give to our colleagues, employees and to those who provide services to us throughout the year. Still more, we give to those in need. We give to the many institutions and organizations that serve. It is important to give. It feels good, and it matters.

Do it.

Yet, for many, the time of generosity is challenged by anxiety about how to sort it all out. Even if the desire to give is strong, can we give too much? Which gift is too extravagant? Which agency is most equipped to serve those in need?

We are inundated with worthy requests. In 2017, nonprofits sent 166 individual requests to our family from Thanksgiving until New Year’s Eve – an additional 32 solicitations arrived via the U.S. Postal Service.

Some were industrious, sending as many as 11 pleas in the 40-day period. Because we answered the call of many, the mailbox will see scores more this year. Can there be too much?

Voting and flying shrimp tails Commentary by Danielle Wilson Our oldest came home from college during the weekend for a number of reasons, one of which was to celebrate HUMOR his 20th birthday at Benihana.

Since he also had scheduled an orthodontist appointment for Monday, G figured he could stay until Tuesday to vote.

Doo and I congratulated ourselves on raising such a mature and responsible heir. Plus, we now had an excuse to see a hibachi chef chuck shrimp tails into his hat. Win-win!

Turns out G really couldn’t miss class, and because trying to find an hour to vote from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on a non-holiday Tuesday is nearly impossible for teachers/people who work (and utterly ridiculous if you’re asking me, which you kind of are since you’re reading this!), G and I decided we should cast our ballots early.

We started at one of the libraries, where the end of the line snaked through the DVD section. When I jokingly asked a volunteer

if “Pretty Woman” was the three-hour mark, she replied in all seriousness, “Probably.

Might be four.” We left.

Not to be deterred, we drove to another early voting site, which thankfully had a much shorter wait of only 95 minutes. In the end, I spent almost three hours essentially trapped with my very talkative son who acted like we hadn’t spoken since our last election adventure in 2016. Stephen King, politics, Netflix shows, accounting gibberish, fantasy every-sport — I was utterly exhausted by the time I finally voted.

But I made memories with my child, and when I add to those the impressive display of knife-flipping at dinner, it was truly a wonderful birthday celebration.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

There is a certain enthusiasm in liberty, that makes human nature rise above itself, in acts of bravery and heroism.

-Alexander Hamilton

Editor, I attended a Community Memorial Gathering (Nov. 1) at Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation for the people who were recently killed at the synagogue in Pittsburgh. In one way I feel discouraged at seeing acts of anti-Semitism rise 58 percent in the U.S. since 2016, according to the Anti-Defamation Legaue. Another part of my spirit is hopeful, and here is why.

There were over 1,000 people from all faiths present to show their support of our Jewish brother and sisters. Over the last year, I have seen acts of support from the Jewish community for the Muslim community and the Muslim community reaching out in support to the Jewish community as well.

I am convinced that one of the best ways to decrease prejudice is helping people meet others of another culture or faith tradition.

I am looking forward to our Interfaith Thanksgiving Service at 4:30 p.m. Nov. 18 at Congregation Shaarey Tefilla in Carmel. This event is open to the public at no charge. We invite people to bring a non-perishable food item as your offering. This food will go to our local food bank. We will have Scripture readings, singers and speakers from different faith traditions celebrating our American holiday of Thanksgiving.

Pastor Jerry Zehr, Carmel, president of the Carmel Interfaith Alliance

I had a chainsaw at our old house but found it to be very inefficient. I took it back to the dealer and told him it HUMOR took me hours to cut down one little limb.

“Let me give it a try,” said the clerk, who then pulled the cord.

Varoom!

“Geez, what’s that noise?” I asked. “It never did that before.”

“Look, Mr. Wolfsie, I once saw you walk into a plate-glass window on your morning TV segment. You are not someone who should mess with power tools.”

I’m actually very good with power tools.

I have never once had a problem starting my lawn mower. I did have one accident, though. I almost broke my nose when I tripped over the extension cord to my weed wacker.

The chainsaw had been untouched in our old garage for about 25 years, which also is true of Step 4 of the Scott’s lawn fertilizer, because by the end of fall, I really don’t care what my lawn looks like.

During last year’s storms, a fairly goodsized tree had blown down and grazed the

side of the house. My wife immediately panicked.

“Relax,” I told her. “We’re OK.” “No, we’re in danger! This means you’re going to use that chainsaw.”

The next day, I dug through the garage and found it. There was one doo-dad labeled “choke,” and I did. There was a little plastic bubble that I vaguely remembered I had to push several times. I pulled the cord 30 times. Suddenly, the motor began to hum.

But the chain didn’t turn.

I found a nearby repair shop and drove over. An elderly gentleman asked if he could assist me. He picked up the saw, pushed a button and said: “The safety was on.”

I didn’t bat an eye.

“Thanks! What do I owe you?” I asked the man, who now looked vaguely familiar.

“Forget it,” he offered.

Then, as I started to leave, he added: “Be careful, Mr. Wolfsie. You’re about to walk into another plate-glass window.”

Grant aids overdose responders

By Renee Larr news@currentzionsville.com Boone County’s Youth & Family Health Network received a grant for $50,000 to develop, train and OPIOD RESPONSE coordinate an overdose quickresponse team in Boone County. The grant was provided by the Indiana Division of Mental Health and Addiction of the Family and Social Services Administration. The grant is funded under the 2016 21st Century Cures Act. “IDMHA wanted to set up teams across Indiana to address when someone has overdosed,” said.

Michelle Standeford, executive director at YFHN. “The team will link the person and their family to services they need afterwards.”

A quick-response team is a group of trained professionals who follow up within 24 to 72 hours with an individual who has overdosed and been treated with an overdose reversal. YFHN is partnering with Integrative Wellness, Boone County Witham EMS and the Boone County Sheriff’s Office to form the team.

“Individuals who overdose come very

close to death,” Standeford said. “We want to follow up with them while the experience is still fresh so we can get them the help and treatment they need.”

The team also will provide Narcan kits for the family and training on how to use it.

YFHN will start contacting those in need of assistance Dec. 1 and will receive notifications of overdoses through the Boone County dispatch at the Boone County Sheriff’s Office.

“The Boone County dispatch is the one source that’s pivotal when someone overdoses. When someone dials 911 it goes to the dispatch. EMT’s are engaged depending on the incoming call,” Standeford said.

“Every morning our (quick-response team) will be receiving communication of the calls that went out and the ones that are overdose-related, then we will begin scheduling the first engagement with the individual.”

The grant money will fund the team from Dec. 1 to April 30th.

“We have reporting we have to do every month regarding the number of people we’ve seen, what our follow-ups were and the outcomes,” Standeford said. “We will be tracking the people in need through the whole process.”

Investors, partners recognize home-care app startup

By Sara Baldwin Schatz sara@youarecurrnet.com SafeKeeping LLC, a startup tech company based out of zWORKS in Zionsville, hosted an investor education TECHNOLOGY event Oct. 3 at Developertown in Broad Ripple.

Chief Product Officer Matt Prasek founded SafeKeeping after experiencing difficulty communicating with care providers for his family members. The SafeKeeping app helps long-term care providers share personal health information with residents and their families. Through integrations with Electronic Medical Records, a universal method of tracking digitized clinician charts, a patient’s designated representative can view select resident information securely and through any device and platform.

The app launched earlier this year and the company is on track to surpass its goal of having 50 facilities under contract by the end of the year.

According to CEO Doug Wilcox, the app’s preliminary users are logging in an average of four times each week. Wilcox said the improved communication and engagement

allows care providers to increase efficiency and improve the quality of patients’ care.

At the Oct. 3 event, intended to inform investors about the company and ways to invest, Jeff Good of mAccounting spoke about angel investing and venture capital investment. Hamish Cohen, an attorney at Mattingly Burke Cohen & Biederman LLP, discussed corporate governance and fiduciary duties.

Prasek and Wilcox, along with Developer and Chief Technology Officer Howard Nodine, explained the app and discussed the growth of the company, including a partnership with medical solution provider PointClickCare.

“The amount of attendees at our investor event exceeded our expectations,” Wilcox said. “The feedback from the investors has continued to be very positive.”

The SafeKeeping team attended the PointClickCare Summit Nov. 5–7 and were awarded “Best New Partner.”

“That got us a ton of recognition and awareness,” Wilcox said. “We were surprised by it and really happy with the response.”

Saxophonist James to perform at Palladium

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Boney James’ jazz style leans more to the rhythm and blues side. Some have described his jazz as muscular MUSIC and gritty.

“I’ve never thought of myself as a smooth jazz artist, per se. I’ve always been grateful those stations play my music,” James said. “I just try to be me.

I don’t know if I fit so neatly into any category. I’m sure every artist feels that way.

I just try to do my own thing.”

James, a four-time Grammy Award nominee, will perform at 8 p.m. Nov. 16 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

“It’s a beautiful venue. We’re really excited about going back,” said James, who previously visited in April 2016.

James has been touring since the album “Honestly” came out in September 2017.

James said the tour will likely extend through the summer of 2019.

“The record has got such legs, it’s all good,” James said. “We just had the third No. 1 single (‘Up All Night’) off the record and two R&B singles.’”

The album is James’ 16th.

“Every record is my baby and I’m in love with it. I still feel very fondly about all the work I’ve put in,” James said. “This record did feel special when I turned it in.

All I can really judge is how the fans are reacting to it. This one just felt like the songwriting was really, really strong and it seems like everyone else is agreeing.”

James co-wrote all but one track, a rendition of Johnny Mercer/Hoagy Carmichael’s “Skylark.”

James said four to five songs will be part of the concert set.

“It’s tough in a 90-minute show because you have to figure out where you are going to put all the new music because there are all these other songs people want to hear,” James said. “Invariably, you’ll hear, ‘How come you didn’t play so and so.’ I quote k.d. Lang, the great artist, who I heard say on stage one time, ‘Too many hits, too little time.’”

James said as the tour goes on, they add songs or change things.

Palladium’s 2019 events on sale editorial@youarecurrent.com Tickets for 2019 events at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel went on sale Nov. 9. The vast majority of the events are at the Palladium with two events at The Tarkington.

Patrons can score discounts on purchases when new events are announced by selecting three or more shows for a Create Your Own Series package.

“We just added that third single that went to No. 1,” James said. “There is a little tweaking, too. We change the arrangements, too, because sometimes someone will do something on stage. We’ll say, ‘That’s cool. Let’s put that in.’ It’s a little bit of a work in progress.”

There is some improvisation, too.

“It’s a nice combination of scripted and fresh every night, which is kind of a cool thing,” James said.

Joining James on stage are a guitaristvocalist, bass player and keyboard player.

They play at a variety of venues on the tour.

“We play the Hollywood Bowl, which is

about 17,000 people, and then we are playing Jazz Alley in Seattle, which is like 250,” James said. “So, it runs the gamut.”

James said the live music experience is more important than ever.

“People are looking for moments to feel good now,” he said.James, who also plays keyboards, toured with Morris Day and then the Isley Brothers and others before embarking on his solo career.

James is based in Los Angeles, where his wife, Lily Mariye, is an actress and director. She is best-known for her longtime role as nurse Lily Jarvik on “ER.”

CSO and CHS orchestra to perform

By Rick Morwick rick@youarecurrent.com When Janna Hymes became music director for the Carmel Symphony Orchestra in September 2017, one of her goals MUSIC was to partner with the Carmel High School orchestra as an educational outreach.

Little more than a year later, her objective has been accomplished.

On Nov. 18, the CSO will perform a sideby-side concert with the CHS orchestra at 4 p.m. in the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

The orchestras will perform three movements from Dvorak’s “New World Symphony.” The piece, according to CSO education director Laura Payne, is a favorite of both orchestras.

“We will have two rehearsals together before the performance,” Payne said. “The high school musicians have been preparing the Dvorak symphony during the semester, and the CSO musicians have performed it many times.”

The concert will be the first time the orchestras have performed together.

“A collaboration between adult and stu-

dent musicians is always a win-win for both groups,” Payne said. “The adults can share their expertise with the students, and the students can share their enthusiasm for performing with adults.”

Carmel Symphony Orchestra will open with “The Inferno Dance” by Stravinsky, followed by Maya Kilburn, the 2018 Young Artist competition winner, performing the first movement of Tchaikovsky’s “Violin Concerto in D Major.” The CHS Strings will then perform “Jig” from Hoist’s “St. Paul Suite.” The concert will conclude with the orchestras joining for the Dvorak symphony.

ATI presents holiday classic

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For Suzanne Fleenor, there is one major mission in presenting “It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio THEATER Play.”

“I think the greatest challenge is to bring as much warmth and humanity to the radio play as you see in the movie because it’s such an iconic Pfeiffer movie,” Fleenor said.

The Actors Theatre of Indiana will present the Christmas favorite Nov. 16 to Dec. 23 at the Studio Theatre at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

The play is a tribute to live radio in the 1940s and Frank Capra’s holiday film classic, which starred Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed as George and Mary Bailey.

“I’ve never done a radio play before. I usually direct musicals,” Fleenor said.

ATI co-founders Judy Fitzgerald, Cynthia Collins and Don Farrell are all performing in the production. Fitzgerald, a Carmel resident, portrays Sally Applewhite, who is the voice of Mary Bailey.

“I’ve never done this show before and I’ve

seen (the movie) a zillion times,” Fitzgerald said. “I listened to the radio show they did do with Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed.

You want to sound as much like them as you can.”

Paul Tavianini, making his ATI debut, portrays Jake Laurents, who does the voice of George. Tavianini performed as George in a Ball State live radio play for Indiana Public Radio in Cohen 2016.

“It’s a reminder what this form (radio) used to be back in the day and it’s fun to do it even now,” Tavianini said.

Westfield resident Annabelle Pfeiffer, 10, plays Zuzu. Pfeiffer has previously acted in Christian Youth Theater.

“I just (recently) saw the movie and I really liked it,” said Pfeiffer, an Oak Trace Elementary fourth-grader.

Carmel resident Sadie Cohen, 9, portrays Young Mary.

“I don’t think there are any bad words in this one,” said Cohen, a West Clay Elementary fourth-grader. “I’ve never been in a (regular) play before, but I’ve been in musicals.”

Address: 201 W. Main St., Carmel What to get: Impossible Sliders Price: $14 Anna’s take: 3UP Rooftop Bar is breathtaking because of its atmosphere and panoramic view of downtown Carmel. The food only adds to that. The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating. Outside heaters keep you warm even in winter.

3UP allowed me to try several items, including shaved brussels ($11), short rib slammers ($15), fried oyster po’boy ($24) and Impossible Sliders ($14). My personal favorite was the Impossible Sliders, two sandwiches topped with a kale and cilantro salad, a chili lime dressing and served on a pretzel bun.

The meat is plant-based and completely vegan. I’ve had my share of vegan and vegetarian burgers, and they’ve never fully satisfied me because of the different texture.

But these did. They are stacked high and are a wonderfully filling meal. If I wasn’t told the meat was vegan, I would have had no idea.

The shaved Brussels is a Brussels sprouts salad dish stacked with charred

Brussels leaves tossed with raisins, walnuts, candied bacon and a lemon poppyseed vinaigrette. The salad tastes like a mix of the seasons because it has wintery ingredients such as Brussels sprouts, but the candied bacon and lemon poppyseed vinaigrette reminded me of summer.

The short rib slammers are a housebraised short rib with smoked onions and queso blanco cheese sandwiched between a pretzel bun and served with a side of 3UP’s “hot chips.” The sliders are served with a house-made English sweet and spicy pickle. The fried oyster po’boy nearly beat out the Impossible Sliders as my favorite, because I am a sucker for anything oyster.

3UP takes the mess out of a po’boy by serving the dish open-faced on a bed of field greens. The oysters are dusted with a Delaware Bay seasoning and pan fried, then nestled against a peach chorizo chutney and a grilled piece of Cajun toast.

Although 3UP is on the second floor above the formal and elegant Anthony’s Chophouse, the vibe is different. 3UP encourages shared plates and is an inviting place for friends to enjoy cocktails before an evening out.

Suggested pairings: Pair both slammers with the Blueberry Botanical, a light, refreshing cocktail featuring gin, basil and lime juice. Pair the fried oyster po’boy with the Smoked Pineapple, a mezcal-centric drink which tastes slightly smoky due to the sweet and salty rim and the mezcal, which is sweeter, richer and smokier than tequila.

Behind bars: Blueberry Botanical

“Mask of Agamemnon” in Athens’ National Archaeological Museum.

The Mona Lisa of prehistory Commentary by Don Knebel

December 8, 4-6 p.m.

Free & Open to the Public Visit our Facebook page for updates @CarmelPorchfest Sponsored By

Athens’ National Archaeological Museum is one of the world’s greatest museums, exhibiting 11,000 items that showcase Greek civilizations from prehistory TRAVEL to late antiquity. Its most celebrated, as well as most controversial, possession is a death mask discovered by German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann that has been called the “Mona Lisa of prehistory.”

Schliemann was the most famous archaeologist of the 19th century, known as much for his self-promotion, sometimes based on outright falsehoods, as for his archaeological discoveries. He is best known for having uncovered what he claimed was the legendary city of Troy, the site of the Trojan War made famous by the “Iliad.” Convinced that Homer’s epic poem was based on actual events, Schliemann set out to find the tomb of Agamemnon, the mythical king of Mycenae who commanded the victorious Greek forces against the Trojans and was murdered upon his return by his wife’s lover. In 1876, while digging at Mycenae, Schliemann found five well-preserved

male bodies, the face of each covered by a mask. The most elaborate of the masks, made from a sheet of gold hammered over a wooden mold, showed a bearded man with his eyes appearing both open and closed.

The ears were cut out to allow the mask to be fastened to the head with string. Claiming the mask resembled an illustration of Agamemnon, Schliemann told the king of Greece he had gazed into the face of the legendary king.

Some skeptics, influenced by Schliemann’s truth problems, claimed he forged the mask from the illustration and planted it at the excavation site. However, most scholars believe the so-called “Mask of Agamemnon” is authentic, but fashioned in approximately 1500 B.C., 300 years before the reckoned date of the Trojan War and 200 years before the famous gold of Tutankhamen. Whether Agamemnon existed remains a mystery.

DISPATCH Remedying foot odor — When sweat and cellular debris from bacteria and yeast begin to break down, you start to smell foot odor. As bacteria and fungi grow, your feet also become more vulnerable to infections such as athlete’s foot or toenail fungus. To make matters worse, athlete’s foot itself can create foot odor, too.

Daily showering is an important step in fighting any type of body odor, but shower with antibacterial soap, dry your feet carefully (between your toes, too) and use antibacterial and antifungal foot powders and sprays that help keep feet dry. If these products don’t do the job, you also can use an antiperspirant on your feet.

Deciphering a meeting request Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

between an amateur and a pro. A store’s semi-annual sale happens twice per year.

So why all the confusion? Both a biannual meeting and a semiannual meeting occur twice a year, based on how they’re commonly used. I’ve worked for employers who pay bimonthly (twice a month) and others who pay biweekly (every other week). That’s inconsistent, or ambiguous at best.

Although vague job titles are all the rage right now, vague meanings for words that describe how often things reoccur are just confusing. This ambiguity isn’t new, unlike the weird startup company titles. I recommend getting a job description in writing that spells out what exactly your new company’s expectations of you are and specify you want to get paid in U.S. dollars instead of a cryptocurrency your founder invented.

When it comes to how often a meeting happens, try to avoid confusion by saying “twice a week,” “every other week,” or “twice a month.”

You snagged that great job at the hot new tech startup where they play ping pong on scooters.

GRAMMAR GUY Your title is probably something like “chief dreamer,” “director of awesome,” or something else vague and millennial-friendly.

Now, you get an email from the HR director (whose business card reads “VP of Hugs”) which states your paycheck will come biweekly.

Does that mean you’ll get paid twice a week or every other week? With the big stack of cash your CEO just raised, they could probably afford to pay you twice a week, but it’s more likely biweekly here means you’ll get paid twice a month.

Couldn’t your company’s VP of Hugs have also said you’ll get paid “semiweekly?” I’ve always been confused about the meaning and usage of “bi-” and “semi-.” In general, the prefix bi- means two or twice.
