Current in NoblesvilleMother Nature let loose on Noblesville and Hamilton County last week with

rain, lighting and severe storms causing at least one house fire in Noblesville, plus flooding water, particularly along the banks of White River and Cicero Creek. As many as 10,000 lightning strikes were recorded for Hamilton County early last week. The Noblesville Fire Department was kept busy in the middle of the night June 22 with calls from residents who believed their home was struck by lightning. One of those reports turned out to be true when the NFD responded to a residential attic fire at 376 Myers Lake Drive. Here’s a look at some of the damage around the city.

Mary Sue Rowland, described by Noblesville Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors Chairman Cindy White as a woman with “crazy pas-sion” and one who always asks “Why don’t we do this?” was recognized for her persistent work for Noblesville with the chamber’s annual Pinnacle Award. Presented by White at the chamber’s membership breakfast at Purgatory Golf Club June 23, the award honors a person who repre-sents outstanding achievement in community service.

Rowland’s determination has been vital in the devel-opment of the historic downtown area through expand-ing opportunities for housing, new development and improvements such as parking, beautification, holiday decorations and façade grants.

Noblesville Mayor from 1988-1996, Rowland cur-rently serves on the City Council and several other commit-tees, including Keep Noblesville Beautiful.

“You know what my philosophy is,” said Rowland, given a standing ovation by the chamber members. “I’ll quit when they close the (coffin) lid. As long as I can walk into a meeting and know one person there, I’ll keep coming.

“I do love this community.”

The views of the columnists in Current In Noblesville are their own and do not necessarily reflect the positions of this newspaper.


It is our position that the predatory nature of tax incentives and other bribes to lure business from one municipality to another does not benefit taxpayers. Instead, the incentives arms race only serves to escalate in both tensions and expense. Yet we have been conditioned to accept that all growth is good and that competition for growth, by extension, must be good.

Businesses waste away without the benefit of the market. And some, such as pro sports teams, feel entitled to demand taxpayer support or, like naughty kids, threaten to take their ball home if they don’t get their way. Municipalities are all too happy to support the habit.

Is all growth necessarily good? Should taxpayers subsidize private enter-prise? When public officials compete with each other, using taxes to entice new or expanding businesses, the process put in motion benefits no one.

We believe communities should use a business-friendly tax structure, appropriate zoning, high-quality infrastructure and an educated work force to attract and keep desirable enterprises.

Growth is good? Spilled opportunityIt is our opinion that a time of crisis is not a time

to push a political agenda. The tragic oil spill in the Gulf has grabbed the attention of a nation. Never before have Americans seen such widespread destruction of nature and livelihoods. Our leaders seem unprepared and reluctant to deal with this crisis. Although BP, a privately held company, is responsible for the event and consequences, the impact on such a huge part of the American economy and its natural resources deserve a fed-eral government response. The response, thus far, has been one of delay, blame and political opportunism.

As Americans living on the gulf coast question how they will survive, our President presented an agenda of new clean energy. One is reminded of sugarplums and pipe dreams. What is needed now is action. Americans want to plug the oil leak. Clean up the oil. Get workers back to work on the oil rigs. Get the fishermen, shrimpers, and everyone else who rely on the gulf for their income back to work. Blame can be placed later. They say timing is everything. Now is not the time to give sway to political donors.

COMMENTARYBy Zach Dunkin

The National Civic League, which annually awards 10 U.S. cities the distinction of being an All-America City, hasn’t heard the last from Noblesville.

After missing the cut on its first try, the City of Noblesville plans to learn from its rookie experi-ence and try again, according to Amy Shankland, delegation captain for the contingent that pre-sented the city’s recent pitch in Kansas City.

“We’ll reapply,” said Shanklin. “We’ll get feed-back on what we did right and what we can im-prove on from the jury committee and try again.”

Winners of the 61st annual awards were an-nounced June 18. They were:• Chandler, Ariz.• Lynwood, Calif.• Rancho Cordova, Calif.• North Miami, Fla.• Acworth, Ga.• Des Moines, Iowa• Salisbury, Md.• Gastonia, N.C.• Mount Pleasant, S.C.• El Paso, Tex.The program recognizes neighborhoods, vil-

lages, towns, cities, counties and metro regions for outstanding civic accomplishments. To win, communities have to demonstrate an ability to address serious challenges with innovative, grass-roots strategies that promote civic engagement

and cooperation between the public, private and nonprofit sectors.

The contingent in Kansas City representing Noblesville included Mayor John Ditslear, Mike Hendricks, Mark Boice, Judi Johnson, Brandon Bennett, Nick Troski, John Beery, Cara Culp, and Shankland, all with the City of Noblesville; and Jay Miller, Calebe Coonce, Jacob Shankland, Matteo di Rosa, Bill Taylor, Bryan Glover, Sonya Lakey, Michelle Corrao, and Chandra Kumler, all representing the community.

The community members spoke on how they worked with the city to help solve the three challenges that were outlined in Noblesville's All-America City application and offered their thoughts on why Noblesville should be named a top 10 All-America city.

Shanklin said the Noblesville contingent gave its best shot, and was told by National Civic League President Gloria Rubio Cortés that the jury said "all of the presentations were good” and that she hadn't "heard that in four years."

The Noblesville group's trip was sponsored by the Legacy Fund, the Hamilton County Convention and Visitor's Bureau, Hamilton County Co-Op and Uncle Henry's Candies of Cicero.

City group will learn from All-America bid, try again

Former Mayor Mary Sue Rowland deserv-ingly has been rewarded for her innumer-able contributions to this great city with the Noblesville Chamber of Commerce’s Pinnacle Award. It was bestowed upon Rowland, cur-rently a member of the city council, for her dogged efforts in service to the community. We salute Rowland on the honor and the chamber for naming her this time around.

• • •Noblesville Schools got a good one recently,

when the school board gave a thumbs-up to bringing former Carmel assistant superin-tendent Steve Stephanoff aboard as assistant superintendent for human resources (we HATE that term, though. Call it what it is: personnel!). He’ll begin his duties before the school year launches. Supt. Libbie Conner loves Stephanoff’s wide range of experiences. True enough, and his skill set will benefit Noblesville long after he eventually retires.

• • •Please help take a load off Cara Culp’s

mind and volunteer for the city’s Fourth of July celebration activities. You’ll be stationed at Noblesville High School for two hours max. Did we mention the free pizza and the

chance to win a 32-inch HD television? Just pick one shift, at least: 6 to 8 p.m. or 8 to 10 p.m. Give Cara a call at 776.6367 or write her at [email protected], and tell her the boys from Current sent you.

• • •Earlier this month, city officials down

in Indiana ’s Haight-Ashbury District – aka Bloomington – said they’ll stop buying goods and services from companies based in Arizona as a result of the great southwest state’s stand on immigration. The city says it won’t send its officials to Arizona for conferences, either. We’re sure the good folks in ’Zona send their thanks to these “libs” for not visiting their state.

DISPatChESCOmmEntaRy By Danielle Wilson

As my almost 2-year-old niece threw her third tantrum of the morning in response to her already 2-year-old cousin’s Barbie theft, it occurred to me I could get good money for them on the black market.

Kidding! I really like their parents, and they would not be happy with me if I up and sold their daughters right out from under them. But seriously, 2-year olds are bratty little creatures most of the time, with only a few redeeming qualities. I’ve really had to focus on these the last few months so as not to follow through with my illegal baby scam. Here’s what I’ve come up with.

1. They are cute. I’ve yet to meet an ugly child between the ages of 18 and 36 months. Even my twins, who were born looking like bald albino eaglets, were quite adorable by their second birthday. And one of the aforementioned nieces? She transformed from an 87-year-old man with a receding hairline to a Gerber baby with beautiful locks upon turning two.

2. They are cheaply entertained. Two-year olds do not need Xboxes, Nintendo DS’, or even creepy-eyed baby dolls that require real diapers. My nieces can play for hours with a five-cent bouncy ball, a copy of the New York Times and a discarded Reebok.

3. They still take naps. ‘Nough said.4. They talk funny. Because their speech is still developing,

two year olds have a unique propensity to say words incor-rectly, inject an adorable lisp, and/or repeat words they shouldn’t. This can make for some hilarious moments, especially in public. “So sorry Father, I think she’s referring to a type of boat, a ship.”

5. They think clean-up time is a game, simply because it has

its own song!6. They’re small. If my middle-schooler dug his feet in and

absolutely refused to take a shower, there’s really nothing I can physically do to force him. But a two year old? I can lift my niece up and off the floor with one hand and prob-ably jog five miles with her in my pocket if I had to.

7. They haven’t figured out that there is nothing whatsoever binding them to the time-out chair.

8. They don’t have a fashion opinion yet. My daughters won’t let me within 10 feet of their closets when they are get-ting dressed, and heaven forbid I should protest a selected mini-skirt/blouse combo. But a two year old? I could put a floral sundress on a little boy and he would probably twirl for hours.

9. They’ll eat most anything. Chicken, peas, crayons, cat food. As long as it’s small and colorful, they’ll put it in their mouths.

10. Again, they are super cute. My younger niece can’t say my name, so she just calls “AnYell” when she needs me. And despite what that nickname implies about my vocal levels, whenever she says it, I’m putty in her little grubby hands.

So yes, the terrible twos are real, but they don’t have to be the end of a beautiful relationship with your child. Just stay focused on his good points and remembered that this is all just training for when you’re really going to want to sell them: high school. Peace out.

In downtown Noblesville, Mike Maloney is proving that anyone with enough determina-tion can wrestle. But the coach of Tech Fall wrestling club is teaching more than just the skills of wrestling. He is teaching discipline and self-reliance.

Since June 4, Maloney has coached this group meets on Fridays in the Boys and Girls Club building just off Conner Street.

“I was asked to start coaching Guerin Catholic High Wrestling this season,” says Maloney. “Unfortunately, the ISHAA allows students to practice for certain sports only during certain time periods. In order for my guys to be competitive, they need to practice all year long. The only way I could accomplish this was to start a club that was not affiliated with the school.” Tech Fall has since expanded to around 30

members, ranging in age from 3 to 18. Maloney plans to add a Thursday practice during July. He also plans to eventually open his membership to men and women over the age of 18.

The idea of younger children wrestling often generates a great deal of surprise because the sport has a reputation for being dangerous. Maloney isn’t concerned.

“It’s just like any other sport,” he says. “Anything could happen at any time, but it’s not as deep a contact sport as football or lacrosse.

You’re in a controlled environment with referees watching every move that goes on. I’ve even removed some of the moves that were once con-sidered dangerous.”

Fair enough. Maybe it isn’t too dangerous. But is it actively beneficial?

Maloney certainly thinks so. “I think wrestling is kind of unique in that

it teaches a team aspect of the sport but it also requires individual responsibility. You determine your own fate, but it’s still in a team format, and that’s something other sports don’t offer.”

The club members certainly seem to enjoy it, anyway. It’s the kind of thing that many young children do naturally, but this has structure and discipline added to promote character growth.

What do the parents think?Gary and Valeria Kitko are deeply invested in

Tech Fall. Five of their six children wrestle, and Gary helps coach both the older and younger wrestlers. Why get their whole family involved?

“It teaches the kids discipline and self-reli-ance,” says Gary. “If you give up, you get pinned and the match is over. You don’t get to come out and try to do better the next period.

“If you walk off the mat knowing you gave it your all and it wasn’t enough to get the win, you train harder and try to give more the next time. It’s been great for our kids.”

With last week’s summer solstice and some soon-to-arrive birthday, I’ve been giving some thought to how we celebrate these special days. My family marks time with our Earth Cycle calendar, a beautifully illustrated poster of a circle which marks the months, seasons and the solstices, equinoxes and moon cycles.

Our celebrations are simple. Most im-portantly, they are fun and pretty much stress-free.

For our summer solstice celebration, my husband and kids simply roasted marshmal-lows over a backyard bonfire and caught fireflies. I was with my amazing book club women, and we discussed “living closer to the numinous wild” by Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, from Women Who Run With the Wolves. It was a perfect evening.

Birthdays? Again, it’s simple. I don’t do fancy cakes, parties, or order custom-printed M&M’s.

What we do is from the heart. We string up a special birthday banner, the birthday child

wears their birthday crown, and we show pic-tures and tell stories of each year of the child’s life, while they walk around the “sun” (a col-ored ball) holding the “earth” (another colored ball). They beam and feel so loved as we laugh and tie our stories like strings together, weav-ing them into a fabric of their life. We give a few simple presents, but they are not the focus.

On full moon nights we wait and watch for the moon to come out, and run up and down the sidewalk in the moonlight, maybe in play-silk capes, and soak up some moonbeams.

And this July we’re resuming our Summer Soiree, which we haven’t done for a few years. We look forward to re-connecting with friends on a hot summer night. It will be simple and perfect. And that, to me, is the Art of Celebrating.

Celebrating is an art, and we make the best of it

Those who know me know I don’t exactly dress like everyone else. Don’t worry, you won’t see chains or pumpkin buttons on my dresses.

I’m not the girl who wears short-shorts and heels, nor am I the one in the corner who looks like she raided her grandma’s closet. In fact, if it were a different time of year, I’d look entirely normal. Alas, it is not, and I look like a freak.

Why, you ask?Because it’s the middle of June, and I still

wear a sweater – or some variance of a sweater – almost every single day. As for my bottom half, my hem rarely wanders above my knees. It pretty consistently hovers around the middle of my oh-so-pale calves.

It’s not that I’m particularly modest; I’m just cold.

I wear hoodies to the Fair because those big, bustling exhibition buildings are absolutely frigid. I wear wool to work because, well, let’s just say Hamilton County taxpayers are keeping their courthouse nice and chilly.

I’m a far cry from being seasonally appropri-ate but hey, at least I’m comfy. Let us not forget that a cardigan, unlike a tank top, can always come off.

It’s countdown-time for CarmelFest. With the festival only a few days away, all of the CarmelFest board members and their committees have kicked into “high gear” to finalize all the festival plans and to manage all the behind-the-scenes details. The CarmelFest team of volunteers is committed to offering a community event packed with fun and entertainment for everyone. There is so much to see and do at CarmelFest – you may have a hard time choosing. But, for car enthusiasts, a must-see exhibit at the Festival (and in the parade) will be a replica of the 1911 Marmon Wasp #32 – Indianapolis 500 winning racecar. This race car was hand crafted by its owner, Bob

Van Note of Carmel. As a retired Indy Car mechanic, Bob has experience the

thrills of racing first-hand. He has always been fascinated by early Indy car designs. Bob explained, “It took me over a year to design and build the chas-sis.” His attention to detail and quality craftsmanship are evident in this spec-tacular replica. The original Marmon Wasp was the winning car for the inaugural 1911 Indianapolis 500

Race. Car driver and designer, Ray Harroun, completed his record setting win on May 30, 1911 with a total time of 6 hours, 42 minute and 8 seconds to complete 200 laps. The Wasp, so named for its distinctively sharp-pointed, wasp-like tail and its yellow and black color scheme, was

unlike most racecars of the period. The Wasp’s smoothly-cowled cockpit and long pointed tail helped reduce air drag. The Marmon Wasp car offered another innovation in design – a little item called a rear view mirror.

As you are making your plans for Carmel-Fest, be sure to set aside time to admire Bob Van Note’s 1911 Marmon Wasp Replica Car. The car will be driven in the St.Vincent Heart Center of Indiana Parade at CarmelFest by Bucky Horn. After the parade, the car will

be on display in the Americana North Zone – located just north of the Carmel Fire Department. For more details and a schedule of events, visit our website at www.carmelfest.net or become a “fan” on Facebook.

carmelFeSt – “ the Win n in g team”


COmmEntaRyBy leslie Webber

I haven’t lost this much sleep since we had a newborn in our house. Lately just as bedtime – which happens to be my favorite time of day – rolls around the severe weather alerts start scrolling across the bottom of the television. For kids who look for any excuse to stall at bedtime it’s like winning the lottery.

“Woo Hoo! Another storm warning! Mom, we can’t go to bed yet! It isn’t safe!” They just said a major storm will be in Noblesville in 10minutes and our bedtime is in 10 minutes!”

There is no argument. I’m reluctant to tuck two kids into bed only to have to pull them out of bed and into the basement moments later. They wrangle an extra hour and wake up cranky the next morning.

Once we are all settled into bed for the night, I can almost count on waking to thun-der claps and lightning flashes around 3:30 a.m. My husband has the remarkable ability

to fall back to sleep within seconds of having a full-fledged conversation with me regarding I, on the other hand, lie awake long after the storms rumble through. It’s a tie between who wakes up more cranky – the kids or me.

With a fire at a strip mall in Carmel, thought to be caused by lightning and news reports of flooded streets in Noblesville, our kids were desperate to see the curiosities. If we can’t go to the pool, they look for other ways to entertain themselves. They’ve kept a running tally of tree limbs blown down in our neighborhood.

I am desperate for calm weather and a good night’s sleep. Either that or we may just start sleeping in the basement.

Super Bowl overflowFormer Indianapolis tourism official Bill Benner was guest speaker at the June 23 Noblesville Chamber of Commerce breakfast at Purgatory Golf Club. Benner, the recent communications director for the Indianapolis Convention and Visitors Association, told the breakfast group that Hamilton County cities like Noblesville will realize a positive financial impact from the 2012 NFL Super Bowl XLVI at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. “It’ll fill your hotel rooms,” said Benner. “Even though Lucas Oil’s capacity is 72,000, there will be thousands who will arrive here without a ticket. We blocked off hotels about an hour out (from Indy) like Lafayette, Richmond and Columbus, and the proximity and quality of the hotels in this Hamilton County is a plus.” Benner left the ICVA to become Senior Associate Commissioner for External Affairs for the Horizon League, a college bas-ketball league which includes Butler University. He will begin his new job July 1.

It all started with a 10-cent school fee and a 2-cent postage stamp. An ailing Franklin D. Roosevelt had just begun an un-precedented third term as U.S. president, and London still was under attack by Nazi forces in World War II. Four months later, Roosevelt would succumb to a cerebral hemorrhage, and by autumn the Germans and their V-1 bomb launching sites would be overrun by Allied Forces.

But an overseas friendship which had begun when a curious schoolgirl from rural Van Buren, Ind., started exchanging letters with another teenager whose family had been evacuated from London to England’s “west country” to escape Nazi destruction, is alive and well today.

Barbara Howell of Noblesville and Olive Wildish of West Sussex, England are lifelong “pen pals,” a vanishing art of letter-writing in an instant-message planet ruled by e-mail and social networking.

“As a means of encouraging us to write, our high school English teacher gave us a list of pen pals from different countries,” recalled Barbara Howell, sitting in the comfort of her Pebblebrook neigh-borhood home. “We’d spend a dime – I’m not sure what for – to get a name and an address, and I picked Olive from England be-cause I thought, ‘Well, at least we speak the same language.’

“It has been the best dime I’ve ever spent.”Earlier this month, dozens of friends and relatives joined the

two lifetime pals in celebration of their enduring friendship and 80th birthdays, a party Barbara initially didn’t want until it was suggested that Olive fly here for a joint celebration. Olive was born June 19, 1930, just eight days later than Barbara.

“I didn’t think I would ever be coming again to be quite truth-ful,” said Olive, who, up until a couple of recent knee surgeries, had played tennis three times a week.

“I’m just hoping our health will be good enough (so) that I can go over one more time and see Olive,’ said Barbara.

This was Olive’s fourth trip to the U.S., third to Noblesville, and the first without her husband, Tony, who died last January. Barbara lost her husband, Dick, at age 80 in 2005. She counts the most recent photo of the four of them together in the backyard of their Noblesville home as one of her most prized possessions.

“While we had so much in common, our cultures were so dif-ferent and, we learned from each other with every letter,” said Barbara. “Still do.”

From World War II through the growth of their families to deaths of family and friends, Barbara and Olive “kept up with all the news of the family,” as Olive said.

Barbara still remembers the first letter Olive sent her.“She ended it with ‘cheerio!’ ” recalled Barbara. “I thought,

‘Well, isn’t that unusual?’ She still does it.”And when Barbara would mention something about her school

class going to a hayride, Olive would write back asking, “What’s a hayride?”

Over the next hour in Barbara’s living room, the two old friends exchanged stories - some of them contradictory, so many of them funny. They talked about the visits each had made to the other’s countries, the sights they had seen and experiences they shared. They spoke of the gifts they exchanged through the years – delicate pieces of China from Olive to Barbara and Barbara’s handmade ceramic pieces to Olive.

And they laughed. A lot.

At one point, Olive asked her guest reporter, “You think you are going to find a story out of what we have told you?” Oh, yes.

The two women still exchange letters, but not as frequently as before, spending the money they no longer waste exchanging gifts to talking by telephone.

And although Barbara is e-mail savvy, Olive wants nothing to do with it.

“The Internet is too complicated for me. I have enough trouble with a mobile phone,” confessed Olive, pronouncing the word “MOE-bile” in her best English accent. “And I don’t wish to know anything else.”

A pen and paper will do just fine, love.

(Top) Barbara Howell (left) and Olive Wildish continue to learn about each other through letters, phone calls and periodic visits. (Above) Dozens of friends and family members brought cards, flowers and gifts to the joint 80th birthday party.

Correspondence between pen pals Barbara Howell and Olive Wildish might have ended shortly after it began if not for a dutiful English postman. Somehow the two friends lost track of one another shortly after graduation from high school.

“I knew she had been working in Worthing,” said Barbara. “So, I wrote to what would be the postmaster in the U.S. to that person in England in care of Olive’s old address.”

Olive’s father, whose last name was Buckle, was a bank manager in Worthing.

“One day, the postman came into the branch and said, ‘Buckle mean anything?” said Olive. “My father said, ‘Yes, what is the problem?’ The postman answered, ‘I’ve got a letter for you.’ ”

The two letter-writing friends soon picked up where they left off.

COMMENTARYBy Carol Rossetti, N.D.

Prescription drugs can be depleting some or all of your vital nutrients. You can be eating the most nutritious meals but losing more than you can ingest. You could end up worse than before you started.

Many doctors are urging their patients to take supplements in an effort to prevent other health problems from developing due to nutri-ent deficiencies.

I am a proponent of a more integrative medi-cal approach. There is a time for pharmaceuti-cals and a time for natural remedies. Sometimes the best thing for the patient is a combination of remedies.

Doctors are trying to do their best, but un-fortunately, nutrition, and vitamin and mineral therapies, including how any of these therapies interact, are not taught in medical schools. This is why I teach classes and seminars nationally for the medical community on the interactions of pharmaceuticals, vitamins, minerals and herbals.

Drugs used for high blood pressure may deplete the body of folic acid and zinc. Folic acid is necessary for proper iron utilized. Low

concentrations of folic acid cause serious birth defects.

Cholesterol-lowering drugs deplete the body of CoEnzyme Q10, a vital nutrient that protects the integrity of the heart. You must replace it!

Acid-reducing drugs stop the ability of the stomach to properly digest foods, leading to bacteria- producing ulcers and starvation. The skin takes on a gray tone, hair becomes brittle and falls out, teeth become loose, cholesterol goes up, and the list goes on. We don’t want to reduce acid. We want to increase enzymes so the food is digested and various symptoms go away.

Melatonin can be depleted and without it, you may have trouble going to sleep or staying asleep.

My best advice is read the prescription pack-age inserts. If the insert does not have the infor-mation, ask the pharmacist to get it for you. Be your best advocate.

At age two, my oldest daughter wouldn’t wear a bike helmet. It was cruel punishment for a father who just wanted to take his daughter for a relaxing bike ride. Her will to resist the helmet was like trying to bring two repelling magnets together. Like trying to move an entrenched mule. Like trying to win an argument with my wife: It was impossible.

My veiled threats fell on deaf ears. Helmet on, helmet thrown to the ground in a fit of rage, and repeat. Finally, I resolved that there would be no bike riding at this house. She wouldn’t wear the helmet under any circumstance.

Fast forward two more years and we find a house where bike helmets are common-place. They aren’t reserved for just bike rides; they are part of everyday attire. At four years old, a bike helmet adorned with Tinker Bell is a part of the accepted dress code. It’s the same helmet as before, only sized a little larger to fit a bigger head with more hair. And, at the same age as the resistance started two years ear-lier, the second little girl willingly accepts the helmet. She plops it on her head and runs to the mirror to see how stylish she looks with that hard plastic thing on her head. What changed in the two years?

Human beings want social validation. They crave acceptance like a nicotine addiction. We all want to fit in with our peers despite what we might say or believe. Everyone would rather fit in and be accepted. Every person might have a different group they are trying to fit in with, but fitting in and being socially validated is impor-tant to all of us. Whether you play in the band or the football team, you have a group whose opinion and social validation you desire.

My oldest daughter’s change in opinion is a byproduct of what she sees from her friends. They all wear helmets, so she now wears a helmet – it’s a part of fitting in. Her younger sister, at the same age when she threw fits about head safety, wears the helmet willingly because her sister does it. We all want to fit in. People have the independent thinking of a school of fish – a good lesson to remember in your busi-ness and family. Make sure your group (or audience) feels like buying from you is socially acceptable – everyone’s doing it.

Juarez, who has 15 years experi-ence in the food business, moved to Indianapolis five years ago and was a chef for Mitchell’s Fishmarket at Clay Terrace in Carmel. He and his brothers, Hilario and Irinco Juarez – thus, the name Brothers – liked the location in the former Tuscano’s Subs space near the intersection of Little Chicago Road and State Road 32. “My goal is to make this a chain,” said Filiberto. Everything is made from scratch at Brothers, including their chicken noodle and cream of chicken soups, chicken salad, stuffing and corn bread. The specialty corn bread accompanies the roasted chicken, baby back ribs and family meals of chicken, ribs, chicken and ribs and turkey and platters – or you can buy it individual (40 cents) or by the dozen ($4.29). The roasted chicken and turkey are also used in sandwiches, pitas, tacos and wraps, plus can be added to any of four salads.

“The White Ribbon” makes for an inter-esting exercise in discriminating between American and European films. This highly styl-ized German drama was a top prize winner at Cannes, and an Oscar nominee for best foreign language film. It received good write-ups from most American critics, but wasn’t much of a hit here, even by art house standards.

I consider myself pretty egalitarian in my cinematic tastes, but I admit I found this movie dense and off-putting. It seems to revel in its own mysteriousness, in confounding and mis-directing its audience, rather than taking them someplace.

Set in a tiny pastoral German town before World War I, “Ribbon” opens with the local doctor being seriously injured in a horse riding

accident when someone strings a wire across his garden. As the folk grow more angry and fear-ful, more attacks occur with increasing violence.

The baron’s son is kidnapped and whipped, and for awhile the unrest appears to be rooted in resentment between the classes. But answers never come with any sort of clarity.

Visually it’s a dazzling film, shot in austere black-and-white by writer/director Michael Haneke. But if American films are often formu-laic and predictable, “The White Ribbon” is just too ... foreign.

Chocolate cake is a timeless classic and, if done right, the most memorable end to a great meal.

As with all baking and pastry, measurements and ingredients are all very important. I have struggled long and hard to find the perfect choc-olate cake recipe. This one comes pretty close.

It is a combination of recipes from my

two favorite bakers: Nigella Lawson and my Grandmother Hill.

Layer this cake with your favorite chocolate icing for a decadent chocolate lovers dream.

Ingredients:• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour • 1 cup sugar • 1 teaspoon baking powder • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda • 1/3 cup best-quality cocoa • 1 1/2 sticks soft unsalted butter • 2 large eggs • 2 teaspoons quality vanilla extract • 2/3 ricotta• 1/2 cup hot coffee

Directions:1. Remove all cold ingredients from the fridge

and let them sit at room temperature for about 45 minutes. For best results all ingredients should be at room temp.

2. Measure exactly the flour, baking powder and baking soda and add just a pinch of salt in one bowl.

3. In another bowl, cream together the butter and sugar, and then add cocoa and ricotta cheese slowly.

4. Add the eggs one at a time until thoroughly combined. Add in the vanilla at this point.

5. Sift the dry ingredients into the wet in three additions. When batter is well-mixed pour a 1/2 cup of hot, strong brewed coffee slowly into the mix.

CommentaryBy tracy line

I was three years old when I took my first va-cation. I recall sitting in the backseat of our car, perched next to a cooler full of sandwiches, my brother poking me from the other side and our beloved beagle Tammy at my feet. The six-hour drive to Michigan took forever.

My family was more frugal than most. Our Michigan trip became an annual one, and each year we stayed in a tiny camping cabin by a pond. A short walk from here led us to Clearwater Lake.

The cabins were sparse: no bathrooms, air-conditioning or television. There was a shared latrine down a dusty path. The window screens were full of holes; mosquitoes were a constant. I remember sharing a bedroom with my brother, each of us sweating our way through the night on our individual cots.

I also remember what fun we had. Here I learned how to row a boat. I spent hours fishing with my brother, refusing to ever bait the hook

(I still won’t). There was a tiny store where we’d buy ice cream. The cool treats were heaven in that muggy Michigan heat.

The lake was great for swimming, and there was a rope swing tied to an old oak tree. Swinging out over the water, jumping into the cool lake on a hot summer day, is there anything better?

On our last night, we’d wash our hair in the lake, get dressed and drive over to see my aunt and uncle. We’d all go out to dinner: fried chicken never tasted so good.

It may not sound like much of a vacation and it wasn’t. But getting away, spending time with family and doing a whole lot of nothing, this is what mattered. It’s what matters today, too. It was worth every mosquito bite.


Low-budget vacation time with family can be first-rate

Wouldn’t it be fun to know what your great-great-grandfather had on his “bucket list?” What things did he want to do before he died? And why? Did he get to do any of them? How would a bucket list back then compare to one written today?

When helping people compile their life sto-ries, writing a bucket list is one of the “warm-up exercises” I ask them to do. It’s one I recently added while pondering an item on my own bucket list.

You see – here comes the shameless plea – I have something on my list that surprises even my closest family members. I can hear it now: “Grandma always wanted to do WHAT???”

I want to ride on one of those gi-normous farm tractors for a day. It could be plowing, harvesting or anything in between, I don’t care – just as long as it is huge, high off the ground, and kicking up a dust cloud that makes those on a distant road wonder what is going on over there.

Was this on my list five years ago? Nope. That’s the beautiful thing about bucket lists. They can be ever-changing and yet still perfectly viable. In fact, they probably should be reviewed and updated regularly.

Some may argue that a bucket list left unfin-ished isn’t really part of someone’s story, but I

disagree. We are as much those things we de-sired to do but did not, as we are the things we managed to accomplish.

Start a bucket list today and see if you don’t agree. And – shameless plea, again – if you know someone with a big ol’ tractor, give me a shout.

Hey, what’s on your bucket list?

COmmEntaRyBy Janna lynas

For those who remember my dilemma a few weeks ago, my family made it to the Field Museum, but not the Cubbies game. I’m con-sidering it a lesson in patience.

Climbing the front entrance steps, full of anticipation for what we would see on the other side, we weren’t disappointed as T-Rex Sue awaited us in the great hall. We felt as if we were in “Night at the Museum" alongside Larry Daily, my kids ripping off lines from the movie they’ve seen dozens of times.

Meandering through the museum, we saw exhibits from around the world. My kids loved the animals; I loved the culture. I’ve always been drawn to the richness and beauty of distant lands and the people who live there.

But as I left several of the exhibits, I felt sad-ness for these people from so far away. Whether Buddhists, Muslim or worshippers of multiple gods, many have been misled into believing men who have given themselves too much credit or as-sumed power over themselves and others, believing

they, too, are gods and are worshipped as such.I have tremendous respect for these people

and their culture, but feel sorrow for that in which they’ve placed their trust.

I am thankful to know the truth of the one who created me. He is a loving Father and the one who deserves all my praise. And as the cre-ator of all people He, “wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.” (2 Timothy 2:4).

So, as I love and honor my God, I also respect those with beliefs unlike my own without ignor-ing my responsibility to share the truth of Jesus.

Missionaries who go to foreign lands live this out daily, but why should my life be any differ-ent? There are those close to me who don’t yet know and haven’t yet heard. I have a responsibil-ity to them, too.

Museum trip reminds this believer of those misguided

My name is Vicki Hinkle. I have struggled with foot pain for many, many years. I have had treatment and surgery from several very experienced, sympathetic doctors over the years with some results. As time went on the foot pain increased to the point to cause life style changes. I enjoyed outdoor hiking, long walks with loved ones and occasionally a day of shopping with friends. I had accepted with sadness; the reality those days were gone. A family member had gone to Dr. Srinivasan for back pain and had experienced wonderful results. I was encouraged to inquire about possible help with my foot pain. I had wonderful results in less than a week after my treatment by Dr. Srinivasan. It has now been sev‐eral months; I am still pain free. I am able to exercise, ac‐complished weight loss and enjoy outdoor activities once again. I encourage anyone dealing with pain of any kind to schedule a consultation with Dr. Srinivasan and decide for yourself. The options available to you may give you some of your life back too!

COmmEntaRyBy holly Funk

While I am normal-ly touted as an insect advocate, no single thing grosses me out quite like a cicada. Except maybe a cockroach.

The sheer size of the cicada is probably the greatest influence of my dislike for the boister-ous insect – so noisy, in fact, the male cicada is the loudest insect in the world. They are huge and black and have red eyes – not to mention the icky, brown exoskeletons they leave hanging around everywhere. What little boy hasn’t stuck one of those on a girl’s shirt, sending her shriek-ing? I know that wasn’t just me.

Still, cicadas are an interesting lot. The imma-ture cicada lives for many years in the soil at the base of trees and emerges to climb up the trunk and shed their crunchy, beige shell. The adults, then, camp out in trees and talk back and forth to each other until they find a mate (you know the rest).

While that totally gives me the willies, some-one else might flip over a bee, or wasp, and that just doesn’t really faze me. Not even one of the biggest wasps of all, the cicada killer wasp, (that’s right!) because it hunts down cicadas and makes baby food of them. Awesome.

The cicada killer wasp is one scary looking

bug. At almost 2 inches long, it burrows in the ground to nest. Sandy areas are preferable, so garden beds with exposed soil and open areas are where you see them most.

The male wasp will dive bomb and buzz you in defense but it is all buzz and no bite, as he has no stinger (typical). The female has the abil-ity to sting but will only do so if trapped in a T-shirt or threatened seriously.

She’s busy hunting down cicadas. Once she’s got her prey, she brings it to the nest and lays her eggs in it. When the babies hatch they devour the cicada for their first meal. Now, that’s a plan.

The cicada killer, as with other bees and wasps, is deemed beneficial as they help to keep balance in the insect world, so, they rarely re-quire control measures. I think it is so cool the way nature takes care of itself – and us. I don’t want to be overrun by cicada swarms.

And while it can be quite alarming to cross paths with one of these wasps, especially if you happen to catch one carrying the cicada, it is actually just trying to care for its family. And I think we can all relate to that.

Cicadas: Beware of the wasp
