Janus Developmental Services, a business providing onsite and assistance programs and

services to adults with de-velopmental disability seek-ing employment out in the

community, just elected a new president. Christina Sorensen has served as an interim

president and CEO since November of last year, and the board made the deci-sion recently to go ahead and make her the full time presi-dent and CEO.

With her new position, Sorensen makes sure the programs and services meet regulatory requirements. She is also responsible for insuring

the company meets their budget requirements, and she leads the agencies in finding new types of funding.

Currently, Sorensen and her team are finaliz-ing a strategic plan and working with American Structurepoint to develop a master plan for the facility’s capacity and if it meets future growth.

“The people are my favorite,” Sorensen said. “I love the clients that we serve, they are just fantastic, and just to see all of the staff and the passion, commitment and dedication they have with serving our clients. We are a team working together toward the same goal. It just feels like a real strong positive energy here.”

Janus Developmental Services provides solu-tions for businesses in doing a lot of contract work, and they can assist businesses with different types of work. They also have clients frequently looking for positions.

Janus Development Services provides job coaches to the clients. Sorensen said it is won-derful because an employer ends up getting a dedicated employee. A liaison is established to make sure the employee does the work correctly.

They also offer a public transportation service available to the citizens of Hamilton County.

“I see us having continual growth, we’ve had some incredible months recently with work pro-vided to clients and the number of referrals we receive for community employment,” Sorensen said. “The rides for the Hamilton County Express are increasing and we are starting strong rela-

tions with community.”Janus also partners with Noblesville

High School. Students can come partici-pate in the Hidden Talent program at the development and work with clients producing artistic work.

“It’s a nice opportunity for students to see what it’s like to work once they transition out of the school system,” Sorensen said.

Sorensen said Janus is constantly looking for different ways to partner with businesses and the community, and they also search for volunteer opportunities.

Janus clients come for the day and are at the facility from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day.

Recently, the clients visited the State-house and were able to speak with Indi-ana Lt. Governor Sue Ellspermann.

“Our mission really is to produce individuals with disabilities an opportu-nity to participate within community,” Sorensen said. “We try to find activities that are outside the community so they can go take part and experience it.”

Families gathered at the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds & Exhibition Center on May 9

for the Spring Fling Fam-ily Fun Day hosted by the Children’s Bureau,

Inc. Community Partners for Child Safety. The theme of the day was safety — and many of the available activities promoted that idea in various ways. Other activities were just plain fun for kids.

Guests were greeted by a brass jazz band and offered complimentary pizza and soft drinks. Kids could play with a bubble machine, get their faces painted, have a competition on the dodge-ball course or explore inside and out the fire truck and ambulance on display. Attendees could also participate in scheduled activities such as Zumba, GenMove and a drum circle.

Inside, informational and promotional booths featuring family martial arts, free in-home children’s safety devices such as wall plug protectors, and a raffle station. Each family was provided a “Passport to Preven-tion” — a card that collected the stamps of vendors and was turned in at the raffle station where bikes, helmets, life vest, pool

passes and martial arts memberships were awarded as door prizes.

Outside, Noblesville police officer Matt John-ston was teaching bike safety to children. He coached them on pedaling, steering through obstacles in the controlled braking course and proper use of helmets. “We teach them to take turns with their eyes,” he said. “Where the head goes, the bike follows.”

By Anna Skinner • [email protected]

A festival to raise money for the Westfield Youth Assistance Program will take place on June 4 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Wittler Ortho-

dontics parking lot at 534 E. S.R. 32.

Dr. Wittler, Dr. Diana Kozlowski from Growing Grins Pediatric Dentisty and Dr. Jason Flannagan from First Impressions Family Dental Care all teamed together to sponsor the event, called the Sum-mer Smiles Festival.

It is open to the public, with food trucks, a dunking machine, fun games for kids and par-ents, a Westfield fire truck available for view-ing and a Chick-fil-A cow passing out coupons.

Mayor Andy Cook has even agreed to be dunked by the dunking machine.

The WYAP is an early intervention program for at-risk kids.

“It’s a great way to contribute back to the community with respect and it is a way for the kids to have fun, to get to know one another,” Florence Trisch, the treatment co-ordinator at Wittler Orthodontics, said. “It’s going to a wonderful cause, it’s a way to do something for Westfield and the children of Westfield.”

Trisch said that Wittler has sponsored events like this before, and enjoys doing it. Since Wittler, Kozlowski and Flannagan teamed together to sponsor the event, funds reaised come strictly from donations.

Kids liable for WYAP are mostly discovered through the schools and nominated by teach-ers. It is completely voluntary.

A new sport is taking hold at a handful of golf courses around the state. Footgolf,

a combination of soccer and golf, has just arrived at Wood Wind Golf Club in

Westfield. The club is now a member of the United States FootGolf Association, and intro-duced footgolf at its Grand Opening event on May 10.

The sport kicked off in the U.S. in 2011, sup-ported by Ted Bishop of the PGA of America. Many golf clubs are adding the sport as a way to attract people to their facilities. In 2014, about 50 golf clubs in the U.S. were certified through the USFGA and has grown to over 200 already this year.

Wood Wind will invite footgolf players to schedule “kick times” Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays after 4 p.m. or anytime on Tuesdays.

Club management is preparing for a learn-ing curve with the introduction of the new sport. “It’s like when snowboarding was intro-duced to the ski slopes. Not everyone accept-ed it at first. Not all the ski resorts brought it on. Now it’s part of the Olympics,” Heger said.

Director of Sales Jeff Cohoat expects the

sport to appeal to families, “With daylight sav-ings time, you get home from work at 7 p.m., grab your son and spend two hours here hav-ing a blast.”

Cohoat said that footgolf is $20 for an adult, whereas a regular round of golf may be up to $59. More information is available at www.woodwindgolf.com.

Indy Film Fest’s  “Bigger Portrait Show” was in full force this month and it was wall to wall with people and artwork! 

The Indy Film Fest and Indianapolis-based Lodge Design teamed up once again to host an evening of good film, great design, and fun for all ages. This year graphic designers were challenged to create a portrait of his or her favorite movie character, and attendees had the unique op-portunity to bid on each piece of original art work, while enjoying live entertainment, food trucks and beer and wine for guests over 21.

The event was held at The Speakeasy and silent auction proceeds went directly to programming and develop-ment for the 2015 Festival. The night was hopping with attendees having playful bid-ding wars to score their own original piece of art. I enjoyed meeting graphic designers from our own local Carmel, Fishers, Geist, Zionsville and Noblesville area.

Tracy Lawrence and his amazing band mates rolled into town for a good ol’ country crowd loving concert at the beautiful Carmel Pal-ladium. The Multi-platinum CMA and ACM award winning recording artist has helped shape the sound of country music for two decades, recently celebrating 20 years in music. Before the concert, guests were treated to free line dancing lessons from Indy Line Dancing (indylinedancing.com) in the East Lobby. Lawrence rocked the house and had the crowd dancing, singing and swaying all night long to his double-plati-num hits like “Time Marches On” and “Alibis”. Violinist “Joe” was also a hit with the crowd - he was simply electrifying! The crowd danced out of the Palladium singing and laughing … another wonderful and magical night at one of my favorite venues. Be sure to check out The Center for the Performing Arts 5th Anniversary Season where there is something for every music lover.

Recently, Westfield Washington Schools was acknowledged as the only school district

in Indiana where all schools participated in hosting a blood drive.

Andrea Fagan, the marketing and PR direc-tor for the Indiana Blood Center, said this is very rare, and that she is not aware of any other school district having that much participation.

“Donating blood is an incredible experience. It is life-saving, truly,” Fagan said. She also mentioned that when blood is donated through the Indiana Blood Center, the majority of it is transfused into patients who need it and not used for research.

“I’m proud of the fact that community service is an integral part of what schools do,” Super-intendent Mark Keen said. “Blood drives are only one part of that service, but the blood center told me around 1,000 lives were impacted by the blood drives and that is certainly impressive to me and a source of pride for our community.”

Although it is required to be 16 years old to donate blood, the blood center still visited the schools with younger kids and taught them about blood and how it helps people. The kids then went home with fliers and were able to act as recruiters for the blood drive instead of actually donating themselves.

Fagan said that only 2 percent of eligible Hoosiers donate, and that the blood type most in demand is O negative, since it is considered the universal donor that is accepted among all blood types.

“This really is a great lesson to teach school age kids about how they can help other people,” Fagan said.

The Indiana Blood Center covers most of central Indiana, ranging as far north as Lafay-ette and as far south as Bloomington.

Camp teaches STEM skillsBy Chris Bavender

[email protected]

A unique summer camp has been host to Indiana children for 15 years but this sum-

mer – for the first time ever – Camp Invention will be setting up

shop in Noblesville. The program isn’t new to Hamilton County, however, it’s been held at St. Louis De Montfort for 12 years.

The week-long camp for students entering grades one through six is supported by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the National Inventors Hall of Fame. Its goal is to foster innovation and creativity while building self-esteem, teamwork and goal setting skills.

“Camp Invention provides students with opportunities to explore, create and solve problems through hands-on activities that incorporate Science, Technology, Engineering and Math,” said Beth Niedermeyer, superinten-dent of the Noblesville Schools.

Niedermeyer has worked with Camp Inven-tion in two other school districts in the last five years to connect Camp Invention staff with curriculum staff. That’s because Camp Invention reaches out to qualified educators in the local area to act as instructors.

“These talented individuals are selected for

their abilities to excite and motivate children and their enthusiasm for creative learning,” said Annie Miller, communications coordinator for Camp Invention.

This year’s Camp Invention curriculum is called Illuminate and will encourage children to explore their inventiveness in the Design Studio: Illuminate mod-ule, investigating circuits and taking on a nature-inspired design challenge.

“As they dream, build and make dis-coveries, children will have a chance to build a prototype from scratch and explore math from a new angle when

they create origami flight models during team-building exercises,” Miller said. “They build things, take things apart, explore different types of technology and so much more. Many times, the students are having so much fun, they don’t even realize they are learning and developing new skills.”

Niedermeyer encourages parents to let their children explore all that Camp Invention has to offer.

“Camp Invention is a fun way for students to learn and keep their brains stimulated dur-ing the summer,” she said.

This year’s camps will be held from June 22 though 26 for Noblesville Schools with the location to be determined. The St. Louis de Montfort camp is June 15 through 19. For more information visit www.campinvention.org/.

WHS senior deadlifts more than average man, says it’s for fun

Get to know Ellen Joseph

COMMUNITY

By Anna Skinner • [email protected]

When someone first sees Westfield High School senior Ellen Joseph, they see a normal girl. They don’t realize that she can

deadlift 225 pounds, squat 165 pounds and do more chin-ups than the average man. However, Ellen isn’t training for a

specific sport or competition. She just likes to strength train for fun.

“I just love all the people at the gym, but I also love how strong I feel and the confidence I have gained from it,” Ellen said. “It’s also good for stress, and when I have a busy schedule and everything else is going on, I know I can go to the gym and let it all out there.”

Ellen began strength training in the spring of her freshman year, around 2012, to help heal an injury in her sacrum iliac joint – located in the hip –

caused by running cross country and track in her middle school years. Ellen saw a physical therapist and began training to strengthen the muscles around the joint and lessen the pain.

“I started weight lifting to help with that pain. I just kept doing it because I liked working out and getting stronger,” she said.

Ellen attends Indianapolis Fitness and Sports Training in Fishers. Ann Joseph, her mother and a teacher at Washington Woods Elementary, introduced her to the gym because that is where she went.

IFAST has a physical therapist and a personal trainer that assist Ellen with her progress. Her schedule consists of

two different days – one for deadlifts, chin-ups and exer-cises in that department, and one for rowing, squatting

and other activities. She tries to go to the gym three days a week, and alternates between the different schedules.

“I am very proud of Ellen’s willingness to try new things and challenge herself,” Ann said. “She has a natural talent in so many different areas whether it’s

in the arts, academics, athletics or in the kitchen, and she is not afraid to go for it!”About a year after Ellen joined her mother in strength

training at IFAST, her younger sister Gwen also began training with Ellen and Ann. Ellen said strength training has

become a mother-daughter event. Ann said she hopes that through early training, Ellen and

Gwen will make taking care of themselves and being strong a healthy, lifelong habit.

“It’s definitely been a mom and daughter thing, the three of us all go together,” Ellen said. “We encourage each other

and are supportive with one another with lifting and trying our hardest and not being afraid to try anything new. It’s

definitely been a family thing.”

Ellen plans on using her ex-

perience with strength train-ing to apply for some college

scholarships that focus on non-

athletes who are involved in fitness and how fitness affects their lives. She wants to go to Purdue University, where she will study aeronomical and astronomical engineering.

Ellen also spends time rock-climbing with WHS’s rock climb-ing club every Wednesday at Hoosier Heights. She said that Purdue has a good gym with rock climbing walls where she can be active.

Although IFAST does host power lifting meets, Ellen has never competed in a competition. Strength training is not a sport to her, but a hobby.

“My main goal is not to have any pain in my hip anymore,” she said. “I don’t go for a sport, it’s more of a hobby. Other high school-ers that go to the gym train for a specific sport, but I don’t.”

With regard to the Trans-Pacific Partnership, Donald Trump (R-You Name It), in a joint state-ment with Americans for Limited Government, offered: “Instead of fast-tracking TPP, Congress should pass legislation that holds China and Japan accountable for currency manipulation.” The U.S. Senate was scheduled to vote last week to advance the legislation. Former Gov. Mike Huckabee (R-Ark.), with whom we don’t side on much, scored points with us on this: “We don’t create good jobs for Americans by entering into unbalanced trade deals that forego congressional scrutiny, and then look-ing the other way as the law is ignored so that we can import low-wage labor, undercut American workers, and drive wages lower than the Dead Sea.” Are the Republicans showing some fire? Yes. Will it last? We doubt it. Listen to Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-La.): “I am not for giving more authority to a president who ignores the Constitution, the separation of powers, and will of the American people. This particular President must not be given any more power to do anything else to harm this country. He cannot be trusted.” Really. Can anyone?

As we were just saying …

Fellow moms of this planet, our day has come and gone. We must wait a whole ‘no-ther year to feel loved and appreciated, to

receive ceramic pencil holders and pasta necklaces and to earn an eight-hour reprieve

from dishes and laundry. This most recent Mother’s Day differed dramatically from my first, when morning sickness kept me close to cold tiled floors, although interestingly, the same kid is to blame! Let’s pause to ponder the evolution of your favorite columnist’s Mother’s Days, shall we?

In the first few years, I can’t say I looked forward to the second Sunday in May. I hadn’t yet learned how to articulate my ex-pectations, and more often than not ended up covered in vomit or baby poop as I cried myself to sleep. No flowers, no shopping, no mimosas. MD was just like any other day with four small children: mind-numbing, lonely and exhausting.

Shortly into 2005, realization dawned. All I needed to do was leave the house and not return until nightfall. My husband Doo knew how to open a can of Spagettios, change a diaper and dial 911; I was a moot point! So my annual sojourn morphed into a twelve-to-fourteen hour guilt-free “Me Spree,” that included malls, movies, manicures and Mc-Donald’s. And on the two occasions when illness or family commitments hijacked my “moment,” I simply called a “redo.” If I only get one day, dammit, it will happen, come hell or high fever.

Over the last few years however, I’ve felt the urge to spend Mother’s Day closer to home. I still go to brunch with friends and do a little bargain hunting, but I’m usually back before dinner to enjoy mandatory “Be Nice to Mom” time with my minions. And even though this year didn’t quite play out as I’d hoped – receiving a call in Stein Mart from your newly-licensed driver after he’s caused a fender-bender dampens the mood some-what – I did appreciate the opportunity to pamper myself while it lasted.

Here’s wishing you a belated Happy Moth-er’s Day. [Seriously, he’d had his license for four days!] Peace out.

Commentary by Terry Anker

We humans care about status. A lot. Archeologist excavating ancient Sumerian (centuries before Christ) communities, dis-covered necklaces of sea shells harvested hundreds of miles from the graves. It points to the likelihood that commerce has been with us from the very foundations of society – yes. But too, it indicates the desir-ability of prestige from our earliest civilized moments. 

While some of us have become highly adept at concealing it, one would be hard-pressed to find any among us who is immune to its allure. Sure, not everyone covets a red sports car or diamond ring of epic proportions; but if the consideration of status is imagined beyond the limits of precious metals, our obsession with it be-comes clearer. 

Some find the performance of our children to be status enhancing (perhaps extinguishing). Others care deeply about personal command of Holy Scripture. Oth-

ers still find appearance to be the currency of their own relative standing.

The last few years have been tough on California. Yet friends from certain commu-nities cling to an almost antithetical boast-ful superiority. Can it be that the city of our residency is just another status tool? Are you really smarter and better if your zip code includes the Silicon Valley? And, does keeping Portland weird and Austin interest-ing actually point to an underlying desire toward superior status rather than the stated open-mindedness? 

“If you are not from my town, you cannot be as cool as me.” Maybe. Or, maybe not. Even as we are wisely investing in our own communities, we should be reminded – is our objective to achieve a better quality of life or to grab a little more status?

My newest Hammacher Schlemmer gift catalog has arrived. Below are some actual items for sale.

The Giant Rubber Duckie, an eight-foot-tall inflatable duck for the pool, has a pretty good chance of turn-ing up in your kids’ nightmares.

Here’s what the catalog says: “The Rubber Duckie has a bulbous aquatic form … with a bouncing buoyancy that compels wanton water play.” (That’s a nightmare for writing teachers.)

The Fish-Catching RC Boat is for the abso-lute laziest person in your life. The pint-sized toy fishes for you. It trolls the lake, sets the hook when the fish strikes and then brings the fish back to shore. It’s $69.95, and you can get a sign to put on your front door: Home fishing.

The Best Talking Scale speaks English, Spanish, Greek and Croatian – and the scale is very accurate. However, it only knows one joke: “One at a time, please,” which apparently is new material in Croatia.

The Authentic Sleep Sound Generator pro-duces a whooshing sound that blocks out dis-

HS, the spring editiontractions like traffic noises or ticking clocks. Many people returned it last year, complaining they still couldn’t sleep because they kept hearing an annoying whooshing sound.

The SmartBrella has a smart phone at-tached to the handle. While walking in the rain, you can hit the button and make a call. You looked crazy talking to yourself with that Bluetooth in your ear. Now everyone will think you are having a conversation with an inani-mate object. Here’s my prediction for what people will say about you: “Mostly funny, with only a slight chance of sane.”

How to Write Anything: H.S. is written by noted author and professor, Laura Brown. Included are step-by-step instructions for how to write resumes, thank-you notes, condolence letters – all good advice so you will never write something like, “The Rubber Duckie has a bulbous aquatic form … with a bouncing buoyancy that compels wanton water play.”

Our takes on steak: Best of the Northside

resTaUraNTs

Harry and Izzy’sMany connoisseurs of steak probably have heard of the

famed St. Elmo’s steakhouse downtown. And while some may say it tops the chart, it’s more contemporary counterpart, Harry and Izzy’s on 86th Street near Clearwater, deserves just as much respect as its upscale equal.

Heading the kitchen at both St. Elmo’s and Harry and Izzy’s is executive chef Dave Foegley. Sourcing its beef out of Illinois, Foegley ensures that only the best beef they can acquire makes it to the table.

“We specify a certain grade and that’s why we set the bar where it’s at. You can buy an inexpensive cut of meat and you’re going to know when you bite into it.”

For Foegley’s New York strip, it is simply seared with a peppercorn crust, resting on Izzy sauce, leaving few distrac-tions for a hungry patron’s palate.

The Loft at Traders Point CreamerySecluded on the back roads of Zionsville you’ll find some-

thing of a gem in the form of a farm-to-table style restaurant. Located at the headquarters of Trader’s Point Creamery is The Loft. What makes this place so special is its adamant ap-proach to providing customers with the most organic foods that you can get your hands on.

Heading the kitchen is Brandon Canfield, a true culinary inspiration that goes out of his way to ensure nothing is wasted.

The menu varies by availability, but when in stock the filet is a sure win. During my visit I was served the pan-roasted, grass-fed strip loin. The grass-fed beef provides a steak ex-perience unlike anything I’ve ever encountered. The natural flavors weren’t flooded by fat, as found in a standard steak. Delicious.

Murphy’s PubhouseWhile some readers may recall Murphy’s Steakhouse, now

Murphy’s @ Flynn’s is off Allisonville Road in Indianapolis, and in Fishers is Murphy’s Pubhouse. A younger brother of the Indy location, the pubhouse is a laid-back bistro that sports similar style family owned values as Murphy’s @ Flynn’s, but in a relaxed pub atmosphere. With three generations of family in the restaurant business, Murphy’s Pubhouse owner/man-ager Ryan Stonebraker has a simple philosophy: it’s all about satisfying the customer.

“We just treat everybody right and that comes back to helping us in the end,” Stonebraker said.

My recommendation would be the filet, Oscar style. That’s a juicy filet mignon topped with a delicious crab cake, drizzled in a Chardonnay cream sauce. It truly compliments the steak. Pair that with a baked potato and you’re set.

By James Feichtner • [email protected]

It seems like almost any sit-down restau-rant offers a steak dinner of some shape or

form. While many places have the word “steak-house” in their name as

an obvious indication of what they’re trying to advocate, there are places that sometimes might get overlooked.

Certainly there is a collection of names that come to mind in Indianapolis and the sur-rounding area when one thinks of the best steakhouse in town, but for those who wish to venture from the “standard” in the steak game, consider these choices for your next steak.

With the bold declaration of being “Carmel’s only Prime steak house,” Prime 47 is a force to be reckoned with. What sets it apart from its Indianapolis and Cincinnati locations is that it’s locally owned and operated, separate from the aforementioned. This gives it a unique

ambiance. Focused on sourcing the finest ingredients, Prime boasts its food quality is “second to none.”

As a local entity, Prime in Carmel is devoted to providing exceptional service to its commu-nity. “We’re a locally owned restaurant trying to serve the community, not just Carmel, but Noblesville, Zionsville, Westfield and Fishers…Hamilton County,” managing partner Jeremiah Hamman said “We’re committed to being part of the community. We’ve done a lot of work with various organizations, consisting of do-nating to a myriad of charities. We just want it to be a local gathering place.”

As for the steak, my recommendation is the dry-aged Kansas City strip, cooked to your liking. The dry-aged process offers exceptional flavor boosting the tenderness and texture of the meat. Lightly seasoned with salt, pep-per and a touch of garlic and thyme, this is a great steak. Try it by itself or with one of Prime’s decadent toppings.Prime 47’s dry-aged Kansas City strip.

Carmel dancer, age 12, to twirl with professionals

Connor Hamilton. (Submitted photo)

By Anna Skinner • [email protected]

Youth America Grand Prix will bring an interesting mix of professional dancers and

young dancers in training to the Tark-ington on May 31.

The program, “The Stars of Today Meet the Stars of Tomorrow,” begins at 7 p.m.

One of Carmel’s own, Connor Hamilton, 12, will be on stage amongst other young and professional dancers. She will perform her Talisman at the Gala variation.

One of Hamilton’s past teachers, Fabrice Calmels, will be one of the professional dancers on the stage. Calmels is a part of the Joffrey Ballet in Chicago. Hamilton said she is looking forward to seeing him again and dancing on the same stage.

“I’ve been working on it for a month now and have a few weeks left to rehearse,” Ham-ilton said. “I really like performing in all the shows and performing in front of people.”

Hamilton has been dancing since she was two, so being on stage is nothing new to her.

Hamilton has danced in other YAGP events, such as in Indianapolis and Chicago. She advanced to finals in NYC and was placed in the top 12 internationally.

Tickets for “The Stars of Today Meet the Stars of Tomorrow” can be purchased at www.thecenterfortheperformingarts.com.

Martin stars in family [email protected]

Kennedy Martin was seven years old when it happened. She was bitten, and there was

no cure. The only rem-edy is to keep getting back on the stage.

But the acting bug has a way of finding just the right victim.

“I have been performing since the age of seven when Brent Marty cast me in ‘Once Upon A Shoe’ at Junior Civic,” Kennedy said. “After that I was cast in Actor’s Theatre of Indiana’s ‘Beyond the Rainbow’ and had a chance to work alongside profession-al actors for the first time. Those two experiences really got me excited about the-atre, and I have been performing ever since.”

She came to Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre in 2013 to play Louisa in that season’s Family Show: “The Sound of Music.” She’s performed in each of the theatre’s annual family shows since. In 2014, she played Jane Banks in “Mary Poppins.”

But this year she is flying high in her new role. As Wendy in “Peter Pan,” Kennedy hov-ers above the Beef & Boards stage that she’s come to know so well. In addition to the

perfOrMaNCe

Martin

family shows, she’s appeared in “A Christmas Carol” and most recently as Fern in the Live Theatre for Kids production of “Charlotte’s Web” earlier this season.

Kennedy is a junior at Heritage Christian High School, where she has also soared.

“I was recently inducted into National Honor Society. This is a big accomplishment – es-

pecially since I spend so much time outside of school taking voice, dance, and acting classes, auditioning for shows, rehearsing and performing,” she said. “Sometimes it feels like it’s hard to fit school in!”

But she just can’t give up the spot-light, and plans to pursue a career in the performing arts.

“Peter Pan,” the high-flying Tony Award-winning musical featuring the iconic songs “I’m Flying,” “I’ve Gotta Crow,” “Never Never Land” and “I Won’t Grow Up,” is on stage for 58 performances through July 3 in the inti-mate space of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. Tickets range from $40 to $65 and include Chef Odell Ward’s family-friendly dinner buffet, prepared in-house for each performance, and select beverages. Parking is always free.

For reservations, call the Beef & Boards Din-ner Theatre Box Office at 872-9664.

Commentary by Catherine M. Michael, JD

As summer quickly approaches many parents begin making summer plans for camps, academ-

ic enrichment and relaxation. Parents of children with dis-abilities can often struggle to

find what is available for their child and some-times feel like they don’t have many choices.

For summer academics, parents need to be aware of Extended School Year options through their child’s public school. Extended School Year is a legal requirement under the special education laws including Article 7 and IDEA. Extended School Year is different than summer school. If your child has a history of regression then this may be a necessary com-ponent of your summer plans. Parents need to be clear at their child’s IEP meeting this spring that their child does need summer services based on their child’s needs and history. Sum-mer services can be specifically tailored to what that child needs and parents should not be afraid to ask for these necessary services.

There are also a variety of centers through-out Indianapolis and Carmel that provide

Summer options for disabled kids

J. Benzal launches shoe linedOUgh

reTaIl

By Alec Johnson • [email protected]

J. Benzal has launched their own product this spring of something that they didn’t have

previously: shoes.Starting this spring, the luxury

menswear store is launching its own shoe collection. They are meant to complement J. Benzal’s custom suits, shirts

and ties.Store owner Mamadou

“Ben” Diallo is excited to fi-nally have shoes for his cus-tomers, who previously had to look elsewhere. He looked to Europe for answers.

“I did several trips to Europe. Went to Italy, Spain

and Portugal, talked with different manufac-turers and was lucky enough to secure some manufacturers and secure some shoes,” Diallo said.

J. Benzal’s shoe collection has ten original styles, ranging from classic wingtips and loaf-ers to more fashion-forward professional work boots. Each shoe is handcrafted in Europe from calfskin leather. They come in colors of caramel browns, blacks, olives and blue suede.

“I think it will definitely help sales. The goal is to have J. Benzal as a one-stop shop for the man of style,” Diallo said.

These shoe and suit styles reflect what clothing Diallo likes in his closet. He likes to share his sense of style with his customers. Plus, he believes in helping his customers find their style, whether its high school kids get-ting fitted for prom, college graduates looking

for an interview suit or young professionals looking for work clothing.

J. Benzal has come a long way from its be-ginnings in 2008 at Mass Ave., and its second store opening at Carmel City Center in 2013. Diallo hopes to keep expanding J. Benzal and open a new store every year or two.

“It’s great to be here in Indiana, and we are a local brand. Everybody’s welcome to our establishment, and we’ll do our best to take care of our customers, make them look good and help them find the style they’re looking for,” Diallo said.

For more information on J. Benzal’s clothing and shoe lines, visit http://www.jbenzal.com/, or call 222-1216 for the Mass Ave location, or 805-1879 for the Carmel location.

Stone Tower in Jericho, Palestinian Territories (Photo by Don Knebel)

The Walls of Jericho

Travel

Commentary by Don Knebel

Jericho, in the Palestinian Territories, is best known as the city where Joshua “fit

the battle” and the “walls come tumblin’ down.” Archaeologists cannot confirm that famous Bib-

lical story, but did unearth a tower that held a world’s record for more than 5,000 years.

Located in the Judean Desert, Jericho is known as the “City of Palms” because of its lush landscape, watered by underground springs. Nomads attracted by the springs founded Jericho in about 10,000 B.C., creating one of the world’s first permanent settle-ments. By about 9,400 B.C. the residents of Jericho erected the world’s first city walls, protecting themselves from hungry thieves. Archaeologists have uncovered more than 20 successive Jericho settlements, each built over the ruins of the one before, eventually creating a six-acre tell (mound) of dirt and rubble.

In the 1930s, John Garstang, an archaeolo-gist excavating at Jericho, uncovered walls that had suddenly collapsed, which he be-lieved demonstrated the truth of the Biblical account. In the 1950s, Dame Kathleen Kenyon, a British archaeologist, made a systematic

study of Jericho’s walls and concluded that they had fallen, perhaps as the result of an earthquake, hundreds of years before the presumed date of Joshua’s battle. She also concluded that Jericho was not occupied at the time of Joshua. Subsequent investigations have confirmed her conclusions, which few scholars now challenge.

During her excavations, Dame Kenyon found a cylindrical stone tower about 26 feet high and 28 feet in diameter just inside the old-est Jericho walls. The tower, incorporating an internal stairway, has been dated to at least 8,000 B.C., making it perhaps the world’s

oldest man-made structure. Archaeologists originally thought the tower had defensive or irrigation functions, but recent studies sug-gest it marked the summer solstice. Whatever its purpose, the Jericho tower remained the tallest man-made structure in the world until about 2650 B.C., when it was surpassed by the stepped pyramid of Djoser in Egypt.

Commentary by Larry Greene

EXISTING BATHROOM: The owners of this 1975 home, located on Eagle Creek Reservoir, had lived with their out-of-date master bath-

room for nearly four years. “We bought this house for the breathtaking views of the lake, but the

inside didn’t reflect our style. The layout didn’t work. It felt dark, the shower was too small and the humidity and moisture from the lake was ruining our clothes.”

BATHROOM DESIGN ELEMENTS: “We want-ed to transform our bathroom into a spacious, serene and contemporary space.” To achieve this look, three existing rooms including the hall bath, master closet and master bath were combined to create one large open space. The bathroom now features an enclosed ward-robe closet, an open dressing area, a larger shower, a private water closet, a sleek float-ing vanity and freestanding tub.

FREE-STANDING TUB: To preserve the scenic view of the lake from the bathroom window, the tub remained in the same loca-tion. The owners selected a Victoria & Albert free-standing tub to compliment the new

SHOWER DETAILS: “The old shower was too small and dark. We wanted our new shower to be modern, bright, big and practical for ev-eryday use.” To add function, the new shower

features a bench with a nearby adjustable handheld chrome showerhead and a shower niche to store shampoos. For a modern look, the rear shower wall features Imperial Bianco tile in a vertical straight lay with a granite accent piece. Finally, a frameless glass enclosure was installed to fill the shower with natural light.
