Holiday song contest - Time to be creative and show your talents as Current is hosting its inau-gural Holiday Song Contest. Readers are asked to rewrite a verse to “Deck the Halls.” Entrees need to be submitted by Dec. 5, in written form to [email protected]. Current will select the finalist and have a local musical celebrity sing the verses and the recordings will then be placed on our websites. Readers may watch and hear the finalists and vote on their favorite. The winner will be announced in the Dec. 23 edition.

Roundabout opens, under budget - Construc-tion crews have finished the work at 161st Street and Carey Road and opened the new roundabout to traffic. “Residents, as well as students, par-ents and staff at Carey Ridge Elementary School, have had to adapt to closures and altered traffic patterns for months,” said Westfield Mayor Andy Cook. “This roundabout will create a safer route for drivers and lessen the traffic congestion at that intersection. Our team worked hard to get this roundabout complete and I’m proud to say the project came under budget.” The project cost was approximately $2.4 million and was paid for through the utility proceeds. E&B Paving started construction work in July. Crews will finish pav-ing and light landscaping in the spring.

Holidays – Westfield in Lights is 3:30 to 7:30 p.m. Dec. 6. Santa will be there from 3:45 to 6:45 p.m. Among the numerous activities is a chance for families to take a ride on a horse drawn carriage through the city.

City backs leadership program

Washington Woods Elementary fourth grader Char-lotte Greer explains to the Westfield City Council how “The 7 Habits of Happy Kids” has impacted her life. (Submitted photo)

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

Washington Woods Elementary School, 17950 Grassy Branch Rd., Westfield, has set a goal to make

its students the best academi-cally and personally by creating “The Leader In Me initiative,”

which uses Dr. Stephen Covey’s “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” to transform the students, staff and community.

Now the school is looking to take the initiative to the next level – with a little financial assistance from the community.

“Infusing a school population with grit, perseverance and leader-ship skills is far more complicated than teaching an academic cur-riculum. But we now believe we have the answer,” said Dr. Scott Williams, Washington Woods El-ementary principal.

The three-year FranklinCovey “The Leader in Me” school program, which was started in 1998 by a North Carolina principal, costs $75,000. Since starting its fundraising this fall, the school has received com-mitments totaling $20,000. Williams said the school has until March 1 to move forward.

“We are really just getting started and almost have a third of our three-year commitment,” he said.

Williams said the cost provides onsite training, supplemental materials and people from Franklin-Covey visiting to work with staff and parents for at least three years. Donations, which are 100 percent tax-deductible, may be made to the Westfield Wash-ington Schools Education Foundation.

“’The Leader in Me’ helps all students develop the confidence, leadership skills and other traits they will need to be successful in their personal lives and in a competitive global economy,” Williams said. “’The Leader in Me’ helps us help students to become re-sponsible for themselves and their communities.”

Williams said his school has studied and dis-cussed being a FranklinCovey “Leader in Me” school for more than three years. He said his staff ap-proached him before the school year about moving forward. If successful, Washington Woods would be the only public school in central Indiana at this com-mitment stage.

“Nearly 2,000 U.S. schools and more internationally have begun or completed this training, but there are

very few public schools in Indiana and none in our area,” he said. “We intend to reach the FranklinCovey Leadership School status and then go beyond that to become a Lighthouse School for the TLIM program, helping Westfield colleagues, neighboring districts and all Central Indiana schools realize the power of this work.”

Williams said the seven habits are taught from kindergarten to fourth-grade students. He said teachers utilize the habits based on their comfort level. One benefit with being a FranklinCovey Leader-ship School is training to make the program utilized in all classrooms.

“The seven habits help you be a better person and have people around you be better people,” fourth-grader Charlotte Greer said.

Greer said she likes habit No. 4 (think win-win) the most.

“I use it with a lot of my friends at recess and during classwork,” she said. “Both get to do things you want to do. I also like habit No. 3 (put first things first), practicing first and then playing.”

After hearing about the school’s plan and current success, the Westfield City Council is providing as-sistance to the school’s “Leader In Me” initiative.

The council agreed to provide a $5,000 maximum matching grant. The money will be used for the school’s participation.

“The positive impact this program will have on our children goes beyond the schoolyard for this genera-tion and beyond,” said City Council President Jim Ake.

Commentary by Angela Smitherman

I’m fairly new to Westfield. I started working for the city in June. However, in my short time

here I have fallen in love. I work as an administrative assistant for the public works department. I love what I do,

but it is more about the people I work with at city services.

Volunteering is a big part of my life and one nonprofit that I am dedicated to is Girls on the Run. I’m a Central Indiana Girls on the Run coach for Washington Woods Elementary School as well as a board member. The organization uses exercise as a tool for pre-teen girls to learn life lessons.

Working for the city, I saw a great opportu-nity to host one of the organization’s 5Ks at Grand Park Sports Complex. From the first time I inquired about having the run at Grand Park to race day, Westfield employees, residents and business owners were overwhelmingly helpful. Westfield employees volunteered their time, resi-dents helped spread the message about the race and business owners stepped up and donated coffee, hot chocolate, doughnuts and even pizza to the winning team.

I also volunteer for the nonprofit Back on My Feet. It gives veterans in transitional housing support and tools they need to succeed in life through an organized activity, such as running. I run with participants three mornings a week and

Running to volunteering

CITY

I help coordinate rides to races every month. I raised two boys and my youngest is a junior

in high school. Now I’m starting to spend time on myself and I have found giving back is just as rewarding to me as it is to those I’m helping. Both of these organizations have made me a better person.

If you would like to know more about Girls on the Run or my involvement with the Indianapolis chapter of Back on My Feet, go to http://gotrci.org/ and http://indianapolis.backonmyfeet.org/blog/ind-angie-smitherman.

Meet your teacher, Beth SalsmanGrade/subject: First grade, Washington

Woods ElementaryNumber of years teaching: 11Background/schooling: Crown Point (Ind.)

High School and bachelor’s in elementary educa-tion from Indiana University-Bloomington.

Why did you become a teacher? As a little girl, I loved playing school and I loved going into my mom’s classroom to help her. As a high school student, I was able to be a cadet teacher with one of my favorite former teachers. In col-lege, I worked part time at a preschool and did tutoring at a local elementary school. I think all of those amazing experiences just naturally led me to become a teacher.

What goals do you have for your stu-dents? I want all of my students to find a love

for learning and to know that hard work can help them reach their full potential.

What do you encourage parents to do at home to help their children strengthen particular skills? Read to your child, listen to your child read and talk about the books you are reading. Reading at home, espe-cially when your children are young, is so impor-tant for developing strong literacy skills.

For past year in Hamilton County, Wile E. Coyote isn’t only chasing the Road Runner, the

coyote has been infiltrating neighborhoods becoming an urban menace.

But in our humane world we can’t drop giant anvils on them to eradicate the problem like in the Looney Tunes cartoons.

From 6 to 8 p.m. Dec. 3, the Indiana Dept. of Natural Resources’ Division of Fish and Wildlife and Hamilton County Parks are hosting an infor-mational program regarding coyote biology and options for dealing with urban coyotes. This will be held at the Cool Creek Nature Center, 2000 E. 151st St., Westfield.

Presenters will be Shawn Rossler, DNR fur-bearer biologist; Nate Yazel, DNR district wildlife biologist for Hamilton County; and Tim Julien, a

licensed nuisance animal control operator. After last year’s harsh winter, much of the

coyote’s habitat was disturbed, causing more encroachment in neighborhoods and backyards and threatening small pets. As a result, the DNR and the Hamilton County Parks are providing the free informational program.

Coyotes are a native species once limited to the prairie regions of western Indiana. As forests were cleared for agriculture, coyotes expanded eastward and are now common in all Indiana counties, including urban and suburban areas. “Places like Fishers and Carmel are growing com-munities with a lot of green space that gives cover for rabbits and other animals,” said Warren Gartner, DNR conservation education supervisor. “That provides habitat for coyotes as well.”

Urban coyote conflicts are focused on at-tacks on pets, concern for safety and fear of the unknown.

Art – “The Gift with Beauty and Potential”

By Eric Ellis • [email protected]

Clay Terrace’s unique outdoor setting and menagerie of 80 businesses – both locally owned

and national chains – make it a popular destination for area shoppers. But unlike the

common David-versus-Goliath scenario putting mom-and-pop shops out to dry, smaller busi-nesses that call Clay Terrace home are thriving. And after Clay Terrace celebrated its 10-year an-niversary, many business leaders are reflecting on the success they’ve seen and are hopeful for the future as well.

Megan Coors, director of marketing and busi-ness development at Clay Terrace, said it’s a great location for any type of business.

“Thanks to our great retailer mix, Clay Terrace has (become) the premier shopping center in Carmel, as well as a dining and entertainment destination,” Coors said. “We have always rec-ognized that our visitors not only come here to shop and dine, but also to connect.”

Coors said that during the past 10 years, Clay Terrace has grown to provide the community with unique events for families to enjoy year-round. But it’s not just a good atmosphere for families and shoppers.

“We find that small businesses do well be-cause of the community we are a part of,” Coors said. “Carmel-area residents appreciate the unique products and services local businesses have to offer and they’re proud to support those owners.”

And several business owners within the out-door mall agree.

Anne White, co-owner of AH Collection with Holly Kirsh, said they’ve been in Clay Terrace for six years, though the two have been in the bou-tique business for 20 years.

“Since we’re one of the only local boutiques, we feel like we bring a certain uniqueness to this open-air mall with so many big conglomer-ates,” White said. “And we’ve found most of our customers really enjoy shopping local, so it’s been great for us.”

White said they’re also considering expanding into other markets in the Indy-metro area. And

their success and ambition for future endeavors is not an isolated event within the small busi-ness owners of Clay Terrace.

George Nae, owner of House of Martial Arts, said improvement is definitely on the horizon, as well as expansion and possibly opening another location.

“We’ve been in Clay Terrace for six years, though I’ve been doing martial arts for 19 years and I’ve owned schools for the past 15 years,” Nae said, “clay Terrace is really neat. We get so many people coming in and out from everywhere in the Carmel and Westfield area – even people from as far as Sheridan. They’re all great people to deal with and I really enjoy being here.”

Nae attributes the success of the House of Martial Arts to the amount of traffic the mall gets.

“It’s such a geographically recognized area,” Nae said. “And a good reference point. I tell every-body ‘I’m at Clay Terrace’ and they know exactly where it’s at.”

Some owners think the larger retail stores may actually help rather than hurt by bringing in more foot traffic than smaller businesses could normally expect.

Shelby Rouse, owner of Luxe Home Interi-ors, said she’s not intimidated by the “big-box retailers.”

“We’ve been really successful here in Clay Ter-race,” Rouse said. “The previous owner decided to bring the store here and we found the right clientele.”

In regard to the future, Rouse said she also expects to see more growth.

“I think Clay Terrace isn’t going anywhere,” she said. “It’s a great shopping spot for Carmel resi-dents and the surrounding communities.”

Clay Terrace and its various businesses – small and large – have a lot to celebrate after 10 years of success and involvement in the Carmel and surrounding communities. One could only ex-pect to see similar achievements in the future as construction winds down around U.S. 31 and as the mall offers more family-oriented events, be-coming more than just a stylish outdoor lifestyle mall, but a true destination for local residents and business leaders alike.

Delinquent children learn meaning of the holidays in Westfield Playhouse’s ‘Best Christmas Pageant Ever’

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

Westfield Playhouse’s upcoming holiday-themed performance, “The Best Christmas

Pageant Ever,” has eight families sharing the local theater’s stage.

“The show is wonderful for families and this is the time people do things as a family,” said direc-

tor Bobbi Van Howe.Van Howe was asked to

fill in as director when the original person moved away because of Van Howe’s experi-ence leading the Westfield Playhouse’s summer youth productions. Since this show includes mostly younger chil-

dren, her past experiences have served her well.“My secret with the show is to put parents

in the cast,” she said. “Most of the kids in the cast have a parent or older sibling in the show. I try to make it a family thing, especially around Christmas.”

Van Howe said her cast is evenly split with actors she is familiar with and those new to the stage.

“Half I’ve known for years and the other half I’ve never seen before in my life,” she said. “One of my favorite things about the summer youth program is teaching them the skills of acting and teaching them a love of theater. It’s a win-win.”

The McConnells of Westfield had no idea they would share the stage together when they first came to tryouts.

“They brought their son to audition, I asked them to read and then they had parts,” Van Howe said.

Instead of driving their son, C.J., 11, to rehears-als, Chris and Nikki McConnell of Westfield are acting alongside him.

“We haven’t been in a play since high school,” Chris said. “It’s been about 20 years since I’ve done this. … I didn’t think we’d have this much fun.”

“It’s been a real bonding experience for the three of us as a family,” Nikki said.

When the family isn’t at the playhouse, they rehearse lines together at home.

“I only have five lines. I help them out by read-ing other people’s lines,” C.J. said. “When I have to be angry at her and she gives me a face, I start to smile.”

“He taunts me on stage,” Nikki said.The McConnells star as a couple struggling

to put on a church Christmas pageant, faced with casting the Herdman kids, probably the most inventively awful kids in history. They lie, steal, smoke cigars, swear and hit small children. So no one is prepared when this outlaw fam-ily invades church one Sunday and decides to take over the annual Christmas pageant. None of the Herdmans has ever heard the Christmas story before and their interpretation of the tale has many people up in arms. But the mayhem and fun will make this year’s pageant the most unusual anyone has seen and, just possibly, the best one ever.

“My favorite part of it is it explains Christmas very well – what it really is and isn’t about,” Van Howe said. “It makes a big impact on my heart. … Every one of them is a juvenile delinquent, but they aren’t incapable of having compassion and realizing the Christmas story.”

“I love the story, how big bullies change and learn the real meaning of Christmas,” said Leah Kerkhoff, 11, who stars as Beth Bradley. “She’s able to be the narrator and able to step back and be in the play. She has a fun personality.”

Kerkhoff has been in seven plays, four at Westfield Playhouse. Joining her in the play is her little sister, Reece, 7, who plays Gladys Herdman.

“I like her, she’s one of the worst children but then she turns out to be an angel,” Reece said.

Reece said portraying a problem child on stage “was hard at first.”

“When I got into it, it was pretty exciting,” she said.

The sisters previously performed together dur-ing the summer youth program’s one-act plays: “10 Ways to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse” and “The Seussification of Romeo and Juliet.”

“I enjoy seeing how she interprets the char-acter and all of the ways she’s learning about theater compared to how I learned it when I was her age,” Leah said.

Youth actors Melody Barrows, 13, and Audrey Duprey, 11, each said they enjoy getting to know

their fellow cast members, making new friends and creating unique characters.

“Everybody gets to make their character their own,” Barrows said.

“The characters are hilarious and really fun to be with. It’s funny how clueless they are,” Duprey said.

“People are having fun with it. If the actors are having fun, the audience will have fun.”

Cast members include: Chris McConnell – Bob Bradley (father); Nikki McConnell – Grace Bradley (mother); Leah Kerkhoff – Beth Bradley; Mason Tudor – Charlie Bradley; C.J. McConnell – Ralph Herdman; Hannah Goergens – Imogene Herdman; Collin McCabe – Leroy Herdman; Sam Vrtismarsh – Claude Herdman; Simon Peters – Ollie Herd-man; Reece Kerkhoff – Gladys Herdman; Audrey Duprey – Alice Wendlekin; Missy Goergens – Mrs. Armstrong; Veronique Duprey – Mrs. McCarthy; Misty Barrows – Mrs. Slocum; Annabel Peters – Mrs. Clark; Amanda Peters – Mrs. Clausing; Melody Barrows – Maxine; William Stuart – Elmer Hopkins; Benji Peters – Hobie; Devin McCabe – David; Cecilia Stuart – Beverly; Ava Venturi – Doris; Chris Bar-rows – fireman; Reece McKeirnan – Rev.

The highest point in our state seemed like the perfect place to launch an initiative aimed at examining the ag-related biosciences and business in Indiana. A sizable assemblage of agribusiness, biotech and information technol-ogy royalty gathered on the top-floor conference center of the Chase Tower in Indianapolis at the geographic heart of our homeland to introduce us to AgriNovus.

Launched with the tagline “Examining the Agbiosciences in Indiana – A State of Innovation,” David Johnson, president and CEO of the Central Indiana Corporate Partnership and Biocross-roads, introduced the new concept and pledged to bring his considerable resources to bear in shining “a spotlight on the innovation in the food and agricultural sector and support continued growth in the industry.”

He is right in his declaration. The industry is one of the most important in our state and con-tinues to bring national and international acclaim to our borders. Most importantly, it vanquishes many tired stereotypes about ag, its workers

On the Statue of Liberty is an oft-repeated and embraced quote. Courtesy of the late poet, Emma Lazarus, it goes like this: “Give me your tired, your poor/Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free/The wretched refuse of your teeming shore/Send these, the home-less, tempest-tossed, to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door.” It has well more than stood the test of time, for this great nation is a wonderful melting pot, a land of opportunity for those willing to seek it and make the most of it in a positive manner. Last Thursday, Presi-dent Barack Obama was to have delivered an executive order on immigration. The White House said this would be “a step forward in the president’s plan to work with Congress on passing common sense, comprehensive im-migration reform.” Judge Andrew Napolitano, a news personality, posted this to his Facebook account: “Obama is NOT the lawmaker - he is the law enforcer. And he is grossly abusing his discretion when it comes to ‘immigration’ reform.” We agree the system is seriously flawed, and Lazarus probably is spinning in her grave, but what the hell is Congress for - other than a dime-store sideshow in this case? Without all the details, we still know that the president has urged Americans to not “visit the sins of the parents upon the blameless children.” The actual policy, however, exempts the parents as well, The Atlantic points out. The supposed immigration plan would wel-come additional waves of illegal immigration; count on it. His plan would legalize permanent residency for scores of criminal immigrants. Maybe that’s what Lazarus meant by “wretch-ed refuse?” The immigrants’ lower incomes will get them into social programs once the ink is dry; that will cost all of us a bundle. As The Atlantic points out, the president’s move tech-nically may be legal, “but it rips up accepted norms of presidential conduct.” Presidents are sworn to faithfully execute the laws … even if they don’t like them. This, like so many orders before it, is a thumbed nose.

Call for helpCommentary by Danielle Wilson

Uncle! I’m calling it. I’ve had enough with the bad mojo in the world bringing me down. At a time when I am supposed to be giving thanks for what I have, I seem to be continu-ally distracted by major bummers. Like the day I forgot my phone at home.

A typical Tuesday would see me leaving work as soon as the school bell rings and rac-ing across town to pick up my youngest from her Orff ensemble practice to get her to tum-bling by 4. Even with perfect execution, we’re usually a couple of minutes late.

On my phone-free day, however, already running about five minutes behind, I found a cop car completely blocking access to my normal route. People were stopping mid-street and three-point-turning-it to go back the way we’d come, but in my infinite wisdom, I con-tinued onward toward a super-secret short cut. A mile later, I realized my shortcut actually started at a different location, one that re-quired access to the blocked street. Argh! I did my own U-turn and ended up back in the same traffic jam I’d just scoffed at. After another excruciating five minutes of waiting to turn left onto the detour, I found myself first stuck behind a school bus dropping off kids and then at a stoplight that was allowing only one car through the intersection each cycle.

Completely helpless, I watched the pick-up time come and go. Subconsciously, I reached for my phone to call the school or a neighbor before realizing that said phone was not in my van but rather charging on my kitchen counter. Cue panic! How could I communicate my predicament? Should I pull over at the gas station and borrow a phone? Can I get Inter-net on my laptop while driving? Why is this (sniffle, sob) happening to me?

Just drive, woman, drive! Images of my abandoned daughter crying in the cold drizzle dive-bombed my already-guilty psyche, bring-ing with them my own tears of frustration. When I finally reached her school, a solid 20 minutes late, I was one hot mess. Her teacher had kindly waited with her inside the building after two separate mommy friends had offered to take her home. But tumbling obviously was no longer a possibility.

My daughter’s sweet words of “It’s OK, Mom. I have a lot of homework anyway. I’m just glad you’re OK!” made me feel even worse. She’d tried to reach me several times and was start-ing to think I’d been in an accident. To that end, she’d called my husband Doo (of course, away on a business trip) multiple times to ask for help.

All because I left my stupid phone at home. UNCLE! Peace out.

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

It’s time for a look at part II of the Hammacher Schlemmer catalogue, which contains hundreds

of gifts that you can probably do without. But don’t let this stop you from sending these gifts to others.

The Brain Wave Animated Cat Ears: This is a headband with furry ears that moves in response to a person’s thoughts and moods. For example, when something piques your interest, the ears stand at attention. Men looking for ro-mantic encounters find this a total turn-on when worn by a woman, but some are put off at by the frequent trips to the kitty litter.

The Buffet Eaters Wine Glass Holder: I re-ally want one of these, so I hope my wife is read-ing this column. This device allows you to hang your filled wine glass around your neck, so that your two hands are free to stuff tiny quiches and pigs in a blanket in your mouth while talking on a cell phone or checking for text messages. If you are really friendly, you could, I suppose, even shake someone’s hand. Also great for horses that enjoy Chablis.

Hungry Person’s Ice Cream Scoop. It’s pay-back time for the giant beer mug your husband bought himself that holds 64 ounces of beer, al-lowing him to honestly tell you that he’s just hav-ing one glass. Now you can keep to your diet even with ice cream, by simply limiting yourself to one scoop. This scoop holds two gallons of ice cream.

The gift you keep on givingHang it in your garage next to the snow shovel.

The Reading Time Clock: OK, I’m going to vote this the dumbest gadget I have ever seen. Instead of numbers on a round clock, it has real words come up on a screen. So it says: it’s eight thirty. Of course, the clock doesn’t actually say it, you have to read it. A minute later we see: it’s eight thirty-one. Who would want this as a gift? Maybe it’s for people who are literate — they know all the letters — just never learned numbers?

Heated Bathrobe: This is a bathrobe with lithium batteries so that you can plug it in and feel a soothing warmth when you get out of the shower. In this same catalogue you can also buy battery-operated gloves, battery-operated socks and battery-operated ear muffs. You also buy a flashlight that doesn’t require batteries. Well, that’s a stupid idea.

The Talking RC Police Cruiser: This is a remote controlled toy police car that lets kids record their own message to broadcast to neighborhood ne’er-do-wells, like “Drop That Toy.” Great experience for your own children who may someday want to go into law enforcement or for the little gangster next door who is already studying for a life in the slammer.

CTC looks to ‘Wales’ for holiday production

THEATEr

By Mark Robinson • [email protected]

When Carmel Theatre Company leaders sought a unique stage production for this Christmas season, they were eager to find just the right

play. They think they have it in “A Child’s Christmas in Wales,” based on the Dylan Thomas short

story with musical adaptation by Jeremy Brooks and Adrian Mitchell.

Performances are scheduled Dec. 4 to Dec. 7 and Dec. 11 through Dec. 14 at Studio 15, 15 First Ave. NE in the Carmel Arts & Design District.

“When I heard (CTC board members) June and John Clair were looking for a family-friendly holi-day production, I decided to see if I could find a Christmas story that wasn’t the same retelling of Scrooge’s misadventures or holiday pageants gone awry,” said Pam Kingsley, a fellow CTC board member and past performer who is direct-ing this production. “‘A Child’s Christmas in Wales’ is a funny, charming, magical musical adaptation of the Dylan Thomas short story that is truly made for all ages to enjoy. The music is abso-lutely wonderful, packed full of familiar holiday tunes and some beautiful Welsh songs.”

Thomas, better known as a poet from Wales,

wrote the short story in the 1940s and recorded an audio version in 1952, a year before his death. Since then, it has been turned into a stage production and film. The story is a fictional au-tobiographical account of a man remembering his Christmas those around him as a youth. The CTC said it believes this may be the Indiana pre-miere of the musical, calling it “a warm, nostalgic story filled with all the good things of Christmas, which will conjure up memories of family Christ-mas celebrations the world over.”

Dalyn Stewart, a 12-year-old home-schooled student from Westfield, stars as young Dylan. Stewart has been performing since he was 8 through the Wisdom Builders home school co-op he attends and in church camp shows, but “A Child’s Christmas in Wales” marks his CTC debut. “I just love getting in front of people,” Stewart said of his affection for performing. “I love the singing, the acting, everything about it.”

Stewart wasn’t familiar with the play before auditioning, but he has been immersed in it ever since.

“I like the storyline of it, how the adult Dylan is basically telling the story in his mind and it’s playing out on the stage,” Stewart said. “I love the humor, the fun, I love the enthusiasm. It’s a

family, loving, fun, adventurous play of a boy that has the best Christmas ever.”

Rick Sharp, who in real life serves as president of the Carmel City Council and began performing in local theater at age 50, returns to the stage as the adult Dylan narrating the show. Sharp said the role is “both challenging and fascinating.”

“The challenging part is I only interact with the cast once,” he added. “We were joking the other night about it and I said, ‘It’s almost like I’m in a completely different story.’ The part that’s fasci-nating is the language. The richness and variety and the phrasing that Dylan Thomas used in writing this is just amazing. It’s language as an art, which we don’t practice so much in the 21st century. That presents some of the challenge because … I (have to be) careful to convey the meaning of the words as well as the sentiment.”

The cast consists of 21 actors and singers, most from Carmel, Westfield and Zionsville. Carol Ked-dington serves as musical director. Show time is 7 p.m. for Thursday, Friday and Saturday performanc-es and 2:30 p.m. Sundays. Tickets are $18 for the general public, $12 for students 12 and under and seniors 62 and over. Group discounts are available. To make reservations, call 688-8876. Visit CarmelT-heatreCompany.com for more information.

Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre rekindles the spirit of the holidays with a special original

production that’s been loved for generations. In its longstanding tradition, A Beef & Boards Christ-

mas opens Nov. 28, the day after Thanksgiving, to herald in the season.

In the air – and on the stage – there’s a feel-ing of Christmas with this delightful celebration hosted by Kenny Shepard and Deb Wims. The spectacular entertainment features everything from sentimental favorites to energetic show-stoppers – all in Beef & Boards’ festive and inti-mate setting.

Performing throughout the show will be Bobbi Bates and Peter Scharbrough, who return from last season’s production. They are joined by Heather Patterson-King, most recently seen as Mrs. Banks in “Mary Poppins,” and newcomer Matt Branic. The featured vocalist is Kendra Lynn Lucas.

Children will be excited to see Santa and his friends take the stage – and they’ll even be able to visit him during intermission for pictures.

Indiana author Kurt Vonnegut’s play “Who Am I this Time? (And

Other Conundrums of Love)” will come to life from Nov. 28

to Dec. 14 at the Carmel Community Playhouse.

The play, directed by Jan Jamison, takes three of Vonnegut’s early works and weaves them together “into a seamless evening of hilarity and humanity.”

“I saw ‘Who Am I This Time (And Other Conundrums of Love)’ as part of my IRT series last year. It is a very entertaining, thoughtful, relaxing eve-ning, where I sat for two hours and forgot all about the ‘outside world.’ Work, life and relationship stresses,” Jamison said. “I thoroughly enjoyed the show and knew I wanted to direct it for a local community theater. The easiness, the ‘homey’ feel, I genuinely like the characters, and it’s all about love!”

The show features a cast of seven – three female characters and four male actors.

“It really is an ensemble cast. Two of the ac-tors, Syd Loomis and Kristen Wilson, play Tom and Kate Newton and play only these charac-ters,” Jamison said. “The other actors, Addison Arhendts, Christopher Dietrick, Carrel Regan, Neal Eggeson and Johnny Mullens, all play two or three roles.”

“Who Am I this Time?” also features Larry Montag as producer, Vickie Phipps as assistant producer, Patricia Dorwin as costume designer, Kathy Watson on props, and Logan Graham as lighting designer.

The curtain will rise on “Who Am I This Time?” at the Carmel Community Playhouse, 14299 Clay Terrace Blvd, Suite 140, at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 2:30 p.m. on Sundays. Tickets are $15 for adults and $13 for students and seniors 62 and older and are available online at www.carmel players.org/tickets or by calling the box office at 815-9387.

For the past five years, Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in Carmel has been hosting a

Madrigal Feast to raise proceeds for various charities, as well as feed

and entertain hundreds of people. In the past years, proceeds have gone to various special-needs schools and cancer research programs, including Voices of Hope. The event is put on by the church’s choir, which following this year’s feast on Dec. 6, will determine the charity that the proceeds will benefit.

“The feast is great,” said Bill Christoff, director of the church choir and the event. “The feast has grown tremendously each year they have done it.”

During the feast, the choir will perform an original medieval play, written by choir member Kathie Samuelson. In addition, the feast will also consist of a four-course meal prepared by some of the finest chefs in all the land, as well as wine and coffee preceding the dinner. The Madrigal Feast has been a great way to bring people to-gether to enjoy an evening of medieval fun and help the needy. It is a fantastic time that can be enjoyed by the whole family.

Feast to feed, raise funds

Shaffer lends voice to Circle City Sound

MUSIC

By Mark Ambrogi • [email protected]

Jack Shaffer has sung barbershop and South-ern gospel music nearly his entire life.

Shaffer, a Carmel resident, is a member of the Circle City Sound, an all-male chorus.

The Circle City Sound will hold its annual Christmas show at 2 p.m. on Dec. 13 at Pike High School Performing Arts Center, 6701 Zionsville Rd. There also will be special guest barbershop quar-tets. The Reen Family Singers will be featured in the second half of the show.

“Remember the Osmond family, well, they don’t hold a candle to this family,” Shaffer said. “They are all very talented. Mom (Sophie) plays the harp, dad (Steve) is a Ph.D in music. Six of the kids play classical piano. Several play violin and several guitar.”

Steve and his three oldest sons sing with the

Circle City Sound, which started in Indianapolis in 1948.

Circle City Sound’s chorus earned the district chorus championship on Sept. 27 in Indianapolis and qualified for the international competition on July 3 in Pittsburgh. Circle City Sound finished seventh in the international competition in July in Toronto.

Shaffer said the members come from all over Knightstown, Rushville, Muncie, Anderson and Kokomo. Shaffer said many come from Carmel, Westfield and Noblesville. The age range of group members is from 12 to 80.

Shaffer, a tenor, has been a member for more than three years. Shaffer, 74, started in a barber-shop quartet at Selma (Ind.) High School (later consolidated into Wapahani). Shaffer sang South-ern Gospel music professionally for 20 years.

Tickets are $15 for general admission ($18 at the door), $20 for premier seating. Call 849-0324 for ticket orders. Doors open at 1:15 p.m.

The public has two opportunities to attend this year’s Madrigal Feast on Dec. 6, at either 12:30 or 6 p.m., at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, 3500 W. 106th St., Carmel. Tickets are $50 and available by calling the church office at 733-3033.

Thanksgiving Week GamesTailgating by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley

It’s Thanksgiving Week and the forecast is for cool/cold weather on the weekend. Every year at this time we warn you not to buy a bunch of stuff to serve at your tailgate party. Use what’s left of your Thanksgiving turkey to provide a warm and hearty turkey soup that everyone will love. For a sweet desert, you can serve slices of pumpkin pie that are also a leftover.

Easy Turkey Rice SoupIngredients• 1 leftover turkey carcass (from a 12ish-

pound turkey)• 1/2 gallon of water• 1 medium onion, cut into quarters• 1/2 teaspoon salt• 2-3 bay leaves• 1 cup chopped carrots• 1 cup uncooked long grain rice (or even add

some wild rice if you want)• 1/3 cup chopped celery• 1/4 cup chopped onion• 1/2 cup of other chopped vegetables from

dinner• 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of

chicken or cream of mushroom soup, Preparation: Place the turkey carcass in a

stockpot; add the water, onion, salt and bay leaves. Slowly bring to a boil over low heat; cover and simmer for two hours.

Remove and cool the carcass; cool. Strain broth and skim fat. Discard onion and bay leaves. Re-turn broth to the pan. Add the carrots, celery and chopped onion; cover and simmer until rice and vegetables are tender. Remove turkey from bones; discard bones and cut turkey into bite-size pieces. Then cool the liquid mixture overnight.

Game Day: Skim off any fat from the liquid and then add turkey, rice and cream soup to broth; heat through. Pack the pot in a cooler sur-rounded by towels and newspapers to transport it to the game. Re-heat the pot on your grill or stove in the tailgate lot. Serve in mugs with French bread hunks. Yield: 8-10 servings (about 2 quarts).

Looking back 20 to 30 years ago, the medical practice of plastic surgery wasn’t nearly as pop-

ular as it is today. Typically procedures were more common with women, but

as advances in medicine and the proven benefits of surgery increase, today more men than ever are getting the surgery.

According to the American Society of Aes-thetic Plastic Surgery, the number of cosmetic procedures for men increased by more than 106 percent between 1997 and 2012. A 2013 study conducted by ASAPS showed 23 percent of facial surgeons nationwide surveyed said men under 35 years old sought services ranging from rhinoplasty, neck liposuction and chin implants to acne scar elimination and hair transplant procedures.

Local plastic surgeon Dr. Mark Hamilton, who performs many facial surgeries in Carm-el, spoke about the increase in male plastic surgeries, attrib-uting it to the popularity of the procedures with women over the past few decades as well as safer, more developed surgical techniques.

“I think it’s similar to what we saw with wom-en over the last 20 years,” Hamilton said. “As people recognized surgery was safe and could really enhance people’s lives, it became more acceptable with women and now it’s just slowly creeping into the male community where they see it, they see that (other men) had the surgery and that they are comfortable with it and think, why not? It’s become safer, techniques are bet-ter and people see that they can do it and have nice results and so they are more comfortable. I think just a lot of the changing dynamics that men are more comfortable with those types of things than they were 20 to 30 years ago.”

But when it comes to considering plastic sur-gery, Hamilton said he believes getting to know your surgeon is crucial to the success of the procedure. One of the most important aspects is being comfortable with them.

“I always tell patients to meet with the sur-geons and make sure that you’re comfortable with them,” he said. “It should be somebody that you can talk to and feel comfortable with and know that they’re going to take care of you after the surgery. Those are important things.”

Aside from feeling comfortable with your sur-geon, there are several other aspects Hamilton recommends looking into when considering a procedure. These include the education and cer-tifications of the surgeon, his or her experience, cost and discussing one’s expectation of the results.

For the 23rd year, the greater Indiana chapter of the Alzheimer’s Association hosted

its annual Chocolate Sunday event at the Ritz Charles in Carmel.

Washing down gourmet dark, white and milk chocolate with champagne would be a fantastic way to spend a Sunday in and of itself, but the Alzheimer’s Association made it so much more.

A silent auction was held where guests could bid on items such as gift baskets and experiences. There were also chances to win items through a raffle, and even a live auction was held. Guests got the chance to win Colts tickets, Pacers tickets and tickets to the David Letterman show in its final season. The best part is that the proceeds from this event went to the Alzheimer’s Association. The association

works tirelessly to raise Alzheimer’s aware-ness, support Alzheimer sufferers, educate the public about the disease and fund research.

“We don’t have a cure yet, but we’re work-ing on it,” said communications director Leah Shattuck.

Not only is Alzheimer’s incurable, treatments need improvement and awareness needs to be raised.

“We try to help people see how much Al-zheimer’s affects the United States,” she said.

One way they accomplished this goal was by showing a film the Alzheimer’s Association put together, which profiled two families deeply affected by the disease and greatly helped by the association.

Not only does the film raise awareness, it helps donors and potential donors see exactly where their donations go, and what they help to achieve.

IT’S GOLDEN

Helping our aging parents

Jon is the president of the Carmel based marketing firm Qpr&marketing. He can be reached at [email protected]

Commentary by Jon Quick

So many of us can relate to this story. Mom and Dad are well into retirement. They have en-

joyed much of it, but as age takes over, they begin hav-ing difficulty with activities

which once were simple - making meals, driving a car, handling their finances. Add in complex changes to health care from Obamacare and new Medicaid rules, and many seniors and their families don’t know where to turn.

Not many know there is help avail-able through the assistance of an elder law attorney. “Elder law attorneys concentrate their practice on assisting clients with the complex issues of aging,” said Rebecca Geyer, president of the Indiana Chapter of the National Association of Elder Law Attor-neys. “We address health insurance issues, living arrangements, competency, financial concerns and much more. Elder law attorneys serve as resources to assist families in finding answers to the questions which arise as people age.”

This year has seen many changes affecting Indiana’s seniors, especially those on Medicaid. Over two-thirds of Indiana nursing home resi-dents receive assistance through Medicaid and thousands more receive Medicaid assistance at home or in assisted living. In June, Indiana implemented significant changes to its Medicaid

rules as Indiana became what is known as an SSI state. “NAELA led a massive pro bono effort to prepare Qualified Income Trusts (also known as Miller Trusts) for nursing home residents who are now required to have these trusts in place if their monthly income exceeds $2,163,” Geyer adds. “NAELA members can provide help and guidance through the sometimes difficult chal-

lenges of understanding Indiana’s new health care regulations.”

Targeting scams against seniorsNAELA is also at the forefront of pro-

tecting seniors from financial abuse. Too often we read about instances of fraud and scams against our elder popula-tion. Seniors are especially vulnerable to identity theft, phone and Internet

scams. They receive calls from people claiming to be the Social Security Administration telling them that they owe, in some cases, thousands of dol-lars in order to continue to get Social Security and insurance coverage from the government. Some scam artists have even figured out ways to make words like “IRS” show up on telephone caller ID’s. For more information, visit NAELA.org.

rEAL ESTATE

Commentary by Jim Litten

More than 2,100 homes pended in Oc-tober, with three Central Indiana counties

reporting increased sales compared to the same time

period last year, according to statistics compiled by F.C. Tucker Company. Overall, October 2014 pended home sales rose 0.1 percent to 2,172 over October 2013, a modest increase of two homes sold in the nine counties that F.C. Tucker tracks. Year-to-date, 24,972 homes pended, a decline of 1,286 homes compared to the same time period in 2013.

In the nine counties that F.C. Tucker tracks, homes sold for an average of $176,703 year-to-date, which is an in-crease of 6.5 percent compared to the same time period last year. Hamilton County was among the areas that expe-rienced slightly higher home sale prices. On average, prices rose to $267,436 from $252,235 compared to the same time period last year.

In Westfield, the average year-to-date sale price in October was $269,160, an increase of 5.5 percent compared to the same time period last year.

• Inventory is moving fast. Last month, homes in Westfield re-

mained on the market an average of 62 days, a decrease of five days from October 2013.

• The number of homes for sale in Westfield is increasing slightly. In October 2014, 221 homes were on the market, an increase of 12 homes from October 2013.

• Pended home sales experienced a decrease in Westfield. Last month, 34 homes pended, a decrease of five homes from October 2013.

• Of the pended home sales in West-field last month, six were priced $500,000 to $999,999; seven were priced $300,000 to $499,999; five were priced $200,000 to $299,999; 15 were priced $100,000 to $199,999; and one was priced at $99,999 or less.

Home sales are comparable to this time last year. Though the increase was modest, we remain encouraged by positive sales and higher home prices – characteristics of our ongoing market stabilization.

The City of Westfield has announced Sundown Gardens as its first field sponsor at Grand Park Sports Complex.

Founded in 1949, Sundown Gardens is a garden center and full service landscape company offering landscape and hardscape

design and installation, groundskeeping, irrigation and turf/tree care. In June, Sundown Gardens announced plans to relocate its business operations to a site just southwest of Grand Park at 186th Street and Spring Mill Road.

“(Co-owners) Todd (Erb), Joe (Russ) and I have chosen to sponsor these fields to demonstrate our commitment to being involved in our local community,” stated Brian Kirchner, a partner at Sundown Gardens. “Since we will be a close neighbor of Grand Park, we think this sponsorship is a great way to show our support.”

Sundown Gardens has committed to sponsor Baseball Dia-mond D14 and Multi-purpose Field F8 for a term of 10 years. A ceremony will be held to dedicate the field in the spring once the designated signage is installed.

“We’re excited to welcome Sundown Gardens to Westfield,” said Westfield Mayor Andy Cook. “It’s an honor to have them as a future local business and as a partner of Grand Park.”

Shopping wars – Best Buy has booked a win for the brick-and-mortar team. On Nov. 20, the retailer reported that it nearly doubled its third quarter profit over last year. The results are particularly poignant for a company that has fallen victim in recent years to the so-called “show-room effect,” in which customers visit stores to check out products in-person, and then go home and buy online. - cnnmoney.com

Washington’s Old Virginia Home East Side of Washington’s home, facing the Potomac River. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Commentary by Don Knebel

Two hundred twenty-five years ago, George Washington issued a proclamation from New

York, asking Americans to thank God on Nov. 26, 1789, for “affording them an opportunity peaceably to

establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.” Washington himself was most thankful on March 4, 1797, when he ended his second term as President of that government and returned to his beloved Mount Vernon estate.

Washington inherited a half-interest in Mount Vernon, near Alexandria, Va., from his half-brother Lawrence, who had named the property after a British admiral. In 1758, before obtaining complete ownership, Washington began enlarging the small farmhouse his father had built overlook-ing the Potomac River. Upon reaching its cur-rent size in 1774, the house encompassed 11,028 square feet and 21 rooms. The exterior was covered by bevel-edged blocks of yellow pine, made to resemble stone by pouring a layer of sand onto wet paint. At Washington’s instruction, the weather vane atop a hexagonal cupola fea-tured a dove with an olive branch of peace in its mouth. Washington also designed the two-story piazza facing the river that was widely copied.

At its peak, Washington’s Mount Vernon plan-tation included 8,000 acres, devoted primarily to tobacco and wheat and worked by hundreds of slaves. By 1797, Washington had soured on slav-ery and upon his death in 1799 he bequeathed the 123 slaves he owned to his wife Martha, with instructions they be freed upon her death. She freed them a year later. Visitors since 1833 have reported a slave cemetery on the property, but surface evidence of it eventually disappeared. On Sept. 21, 1983, the Mount Vernon Ladies Associa-tion, owners of the property since 1858, dedi-cated a cylindrical monument near the tombs of George and Martha Washington to mark the graves of “Afro Americans who served as slaves at Mount Vernon.”

Mount Vernon’s mansion, outbuildings and 500 remaining acres are open to the public 365 days a year, reflecting Washington’s hospitality while living there. Of the more than 80 million visitors since then, only those since 2007 have been able to purchase whiskey from a working replica of Washington’s distillery.

On the evolution of languageCommentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “Jordan, I was tempted to write you after your comments on ‘may’ vs. ‘can’. I

didn’t, but your com-ments on ‘snuck’ and ‘sneaked’ have tipped me

over the edge. I know English is a living language and needs to be with new ideas, inventions, etc., that need identifying. However, why do the powers that be and dictionaries allow bad lan-guage to become good or acceptable language just because so many people use it? Bad is bad, regardless. Why ever learn good English if one’s bad English will eventually be acceptable. To allow the bad to become good is allowing our language to go downhill. Let the bad stay bad and if a large number of people want to speak bad English, so be it. But at least they will know it is bad English.” -- (John Ross)

Answer: Every year, dictionaries release their list of new words that have been “officially” add-ed to the language and words that have gained new meanings. Every year I cringe (Not “selfie!”).

The conceit that you and I allow ourselves in

these moments is that there are “powers that be” when it comes to language. But that is not how language evolves.

There is a great quote from “This Craft of Verse” by the Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges about just this notion:

“… language is not, as we are led to sup-pose by the dictionary, the invention of academicians or philologists. Rather, it has been evolved through time … by peasants, by fishermen, by hunters, by riders.”

When we say things like, “How could they let that become acceptable!” or “Why don’t they enforce the rules of grammar?” we’re expecting the tail to wag the dog. The role of the dictionary is that of a scribe: recording how the language is used at this point in time by the people who use it. When the language changes, so must the dictionary – lest it risk becoming irrelevant.

Lose the leather – Leather in all of its glossy, binding sheen is over according to winter fashion trends.

INSIDE & OUT

Commentary by Larry Greene

ORIGINAL POOL DECK: This home, located in the Claybridge subdivision in West Carmel, in-

cluded a wooden deck connected to the pool area. The homeowners were constantly battling

the intense sun and heat throughout the day and into the evening. This lack of backyard shade led the homeowners to add a new gazebo struc-ture with a rustic design and prominent view of the pool and scenic lake.

STRUCTURAL DESIGN: Set on a new concrete pier foundation, the 330-square-foot gazebo structure features a rustic design. Once the foundation work was complete, 6-by-6 decora-tive cedar columns were installed to support the roof. Rough sawn cedar trusses with black painted steel gusset plates were installed to provide additional structural support while also adding to the desired look.

FIREPLACE DETAILS: The stately fireplace was designed with functionality in mind. Real stone veneer in a “Chestnut Ashlar” color was installed over the concrete masonry unit fireplace. The interior fireplace wall features a 6-inch recess for the TV, two firewood storage areas and two weatherproof cabinets for lighting and media equipment. A gas line and valve was installed for the fireplace gas start system.

roof with matching gut-ters and downspouts was installed. A finish coat of stain was ap-plied to the columns, sid-ing, cedar trim and bead board ceiling to complete the final look. In order to provide adequate light-ing for evening enter-tainment, six well lights were installed around the perimeter of each cedar column. A ceiling fan/light in a bronze fin-ish also was installed on a dimmable switch.

RESULT: All design elements came together to create the perfect poolside retreat with year-round appeal. When it’s too chilly to relax in the shade after a dip in the pool, the homeowners and their family and friends like to gather around the cozy fireplace for s’mores and football on the outdoor TV.
