Columnist Mike Redmond writes that the decline in cereal sales is just anoth-er way to mark the passage of time for Baby Boomers. For him, cereal was one of the main food groups (along with bologna, Velveeta and Wonder bread). And while he can understand the latter three falling out of favor, it’s kind of sad for him to see cereal declining. To read more, visit www.currentnoblesville.com.

The fourth annual Firefighters Chili Cook-Off raised approxi-mately $450 for the Hamilton County Fallen Firefighters Memorial. On Sept. 11, the Noblesville Main Street Thursday Market hosted the competition for the first time. As part of the switch, local fire stations used ingredients from the market. Visitors sampled chili from various firefighting chefs and voted for their favorites by making cash dona-tions to the team’s boot. Mike Cook, of Station 71, won the bragging rights this year. Cook said the market ingredients in his chili were hamburger, onion, pepper and chili sauce.

A ‘Frozen’ frenzy

In conjunction with Healthy Schools Week, Noblesville Schools launched the Project Fit initiative at three of its elementary schools on Sept. 17. Project Fit is a fitness/wellness pro-gram that involves special playground equip-ment and a special curriculum, which enhanc-es Noblesville’s existing wellness curriculum. The initiative was made possible through a partnership with Riverview Hospital and community donors. Project Fit playgrounds were dedicated at Hazel Dell Elementary, 3025 Westfield Rd.; Hinkle Creek Elementary, 595 South Harbour Dr.; and North Elementary, 440 N. 10th St. Each Noblesville elementary school now has a Project Fit playground and the district is the only one in the state with the fitness equipment and curriculum.

Commentary by Cindy Benedict

Sept. 13 was a whirlwind day with the inaugu-ral Noblesville White River Celebration – a full day

honoring and caring for our precious river.

It would not have happened without another force of nature – Darren Peter-son. Peterson spent months leading the event’s planning team but that is just a small portion of the hours he volunteers to Noblesville.

Peterson is one of the most creative people I know. Right now that creativity is focused on downtown Noblesville through a wide range of volunteer duties with Noblesville Main Street, Noblesville Chamber of Commerce and Nickel Plate Arts. Peterson told me he “loves transform-ing space into gathering places for community.” Peterson gets so excited when he talks about downtown – how much he loves its “spirit and how it feels.” He is proud that downtown avoided the “by-pass syndrome and it remains a vibrant and exciting environment.”

As principal architect for Peterson Architecture, Peterson has the professional skills to design beautiful buildings that foster community. One of these is the Shaarey Tefilla Synagogue, which made Peterson think in new ways to integrate function, faith, history and art. It also allows him to see an empty alley next to Noblesville Main

Street and transform it into a European market space on Thursdays; or how to use a pile of cans to create art, feed the hungry and bring together a wide range of collaborators to make it happen.

This is the second year of “Noblesville CanStruction” and it promises to be another big hit. Teams of architects, engineers and just about anyone who wants to help make colossal structures entirely out of full cans of food. Church, Church, Hittle & Antrim is hosting this year’s event. The structure will be built Oct. 3 and on display through Oct. 19. All

the food is donated to local food pantries at the end of the exhibit. Peterson is quite busy right now lining up sponsors, so help today by calling Noblesville Main Street at 776-0205. Our pantries need your support.

By the way, if you were at the White River Celebration, you got to enjoy a massive cake to celebrate Noblesville Main Street’s 25th An-niversary. Peterson is also a Wilton method cake decorator and teacher. He and four students created the amazing cake. It was just another way he volunteered his time, talent and treasure to make the day special.

After my stroke, I had medical issues that made it impossible for me to go directly home. The people at the hospital told me about rehab and therapy available at Westminster Village North. My daughter visited the newly renovated health center and decided it was the place for me.

My private Medicare suite was spacious and comfortable; and the staff really cared about my needs. My experience with rehabilitation therapy was superb. The equipment was brand new and the therapists were well-trained and helpful. I was eager to go home, but will always appreciate Westminster Village North.

Now Sophie and I can enjoy that milkshake at my home again.

Sacrifice servedBefore the Westfield and Noblesville high school volleyball teams competed on the court the two came together to honor and recog-nize local first responders on the 13th anniversary of 9/11. Following a short sound clip of radio communication, players handed police officers, firefighters and EMS personnel a hand-written note and carnations. In addition to the ceremony between the varsity and JV matches, the teams wore special 9/11 jerseys and salute to heroes’ bracelets. For more photos, visit currentnoblesville.com.

The Hamilton County Commissioners had a resolution to purchase property needed to build a driving track and gun range at the

county public safety training facility on River

Road in Noblesville. After a joint meeting with the Ham-

ilton County Council on Sept. 5, the project has been removed from the commissioners’ list of capital spending priorities. It was ranked as the No. 3 highest priority project.

“Thirteen million dollars for a race track is un-real,” councilor Brad Beaver said.

To pay for the real estate acquisition (which commissioners hoped to pay $30,000 to $40,000 per acre for 60 acres) will require a countywide general obligation bond. Officials said the bond would raise tax rates one-quarter to one-half a

cent. Attorney Mike Howard said 80 percent of residential homeowners hit the tax cap so the costs will likely be felt by agriculture and multi-family owners.

Commissioner Mark Heirbrandt said the center is used by doughnut counties and statewide for training. He said the expansion provides an increase in qual-ity of life and public safety.

“To maintain a high quality of life you have to have a safe community. This provides that community service,” he said.

Officials said it is estimated to cost $350,000 a year to operate the training center with poten-tial revenue from rentals to offset some of those costs.

Council members expressed concern over the real estate estimation and how the county does not operate any fire stations.

“I’m not a big fan,” said Rick McKinney, council president.

The housing growth continues on the east side of Noblesville as the city’s plan commission approved the Flagstone development on Sept. 15.

The planned develop-ment includes two par-cels. Noblesville Assistant

Planning Director Andy Wert said the project involves each side of Summer Road. The 33 acres on the east side is unincorporated Wayne Town-ship and is under the jurisdiction of Hamilton County. The 40 acres on the west side is unin-corporated Noblesville Township.

Flagstone plans include 151 units with a den-sity of 2.4 lots per acre. Wert said Arbor Homes will construct the homes on the east side (Flagstone Woods) and Silverthorne will build Flagstone Ridge on the west side of Summer Road.

“They are sister companies and con-trolled by the same individuals,” he said.

Wert said Flagstone Ridge will have sidewalk connections with the Saga-more housing addition. Flagstone Woods will include a 5.5-acre wooden area and will con-nect to the 200-acre Eastside Park, which is in its planning stage. Walking trails will connect the

two subdivisions.Wert said the property was owned by the

Park Tudor Trust before it was sold to Roger Kessler.

“They had no need for the property and sold it for cash,” he said.

Flagstone, which had no remon-strance, was sent to the Noblesville Common Council with a unanimous favorable recommendation.

Developer asks for timeThe Gradison development of Seminole was

continued to the October meeting at the request of Steve Hardin, attorney for Faegre Baker Daniels,

after the public hearing. Several residents voiced concerns, not on the project but the location.

“There were no negative comments on the project or style,” Wert said. “Comments centered on the condition of existing road network which includes two 90-degree jogs.”

Seminole is comprised of two communities on 134 acres in between 161st and 169th streets, just east of Seminole Road. Development plans include up to 256 single family homes ranging in size from 1,700- to 3,000-square-feet (not includ-ing the basement area). Ryan Homes will serve as the builder. Prices are expected to average between $300,000 and $375,000.

Three thousand rubber ducks are dumped from a train into White River.

Crowds line the Logan Street Bridge finish line and other areas near White River to watch the annual duck race. (Photos by Robert Herrington)

On Sept. 13, the annual duck race was the quickest in Noblesville Main Street history. Of-ficials said strong winds and high water levels caused the race to be over within eight minutes of drop-ping the ducks. The event is a fundrais-er for NMS and was part of the White River Celebration. For more photos, visit www.current-noblesville.com.

Sam Wides of White River Canoe Co. raises the winning duck into the air. While it was not a $1 million duck, the grand prize was a 55-inch TV.

Scenic course offers twilight run

DIvErsION

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

Hamilton County Parks and Recreation, in partnership with Riverview Health, is staging its

annual Twilight Trail Run & Walk on Sept. 27 at Strawtown Koteewi Park. Onsite registra-

tion begins at 3 p.m. with the run/walk starting at 5:30 p.m.

Don Nicholls, HCPR resource development spe-cialist, said the event is a competitive 5-mile run and 2.25 fun/youth walk.

“Known for its historic and archaeological significance, the 800-acre park is a hidden gem of Hamilton County and turns majestic at dusk,” he said.

Cost is $20 for those that pre-register and $25 the day of event. Pre-registrants will receive a long sleeve Sport-Tek T-shirt and all participants will receive a limited edition wooden medallion.

“What makes this event special is not only the one-of-a-kind scenic course, which has been modified this year, but the time of day during which the run and walk is held,” Nicholls said. “At sunset, the 300 acres of prairie appear to be ablaze.”

Board certified podiatric surgeon Scott Schul-man, DPM, of Indiana Podiatry Group, will discuss common running injuries and causes before the start of the race. Nicholls said food and refresh-ments will be available for purchase and free entertainment and activities will be provided throughout the event. The evening will culminate with awards being presented to the top finishers following completion of the run/walk.

This year’s Riverview Health Twilight Trail Run & Walk at Strawtown Koteewi Park is Sept. 27. (File photo)

As the department works on two new parks, Noblesville Parks Director Brandon Bennett said

an addition at the 36-hole Fox Prairie Golf Course provides residents with a

unique offering – FootGolf.“It’s the most exciting thing

we’ve done in a long time. We’ve had fun doing it,” Ben-nett said.

As the name indicates, Foot-Golf is a combination of soccer and golf.

“We wanted to offer this new, unique opportunity for families, teams, companies, to get some exercise, develop skills or just have some fun with the newest sport in the industry,” Bennett said. “This allows us to do that while utilizing our existing facilities and bringing soccer into the golf world.”

Noblesville will be the seventh course in Indi-ana and only the second 18-hole course in Cen-tral Indiana. Officials are hoping the accredited course will be host to regional tournaments in the future.

“We’re all in on this,” Ben-nett said. “If this turns out to be a success, we want to be the Midwest center for tourna-ment play.”

The course was designed by Bennett, assistant parks direc-tor Mike Hoffmeister, golf course superintendent

The basicsPlayers tee up in groups like golf and begin each hole by kicking a soccer ball from the tee. They then kick the ball until it lands in the special 21-inch hole while utilizing the etiquette and rules of traditional golf. Foot-Golf’s cost is $14 per person to walk 18 holes or $21.50 to ride 18 holes. Players are encour-aged to call for tee times up to one week in advance. Rental soccer balls will be available or players may bring their own. For more information, call 776-6350.

FooTGolF cheaT sheeT1. There is no specific dress code, but soccer

cleats are not allowed.2. Your soccer ball must be easy to identify.3. Maintain a proper pace of play, as you

would in traditional golf.4. You must kick the ball from up to 6 feet

behind the tee markers.5. Make sure your kick won’t interfere with

other FootGolf or traditional golf players. Use your scorecard and wait for your turn.

6. Your kick must be one single movement and you may only use your feet to play the ball.

7. Wait to play until the ball has completely come to rest. You cannot stop the ball from rolling.

8. Play the ball from where it is. You cannot move the ball except to pick it up to mark a spot if it might interfere with another player’s kick or ball.

9. The first player to kick the ball is the player farthest from the hole.

10. If a ball lands in water: Retrieve it and place it within two steps from closest land point where the ball entered the hazard and receive a one-stroke penalty –or– place the ball at the position of the previous kick and receive a one-stroke penalty.

11. The ball may only be picked up to be cleaned or replaced when on the green. Golf greens will not be used for FootGolf.

12. Have fun.

Curt Brisco and Gary Deakyne, PGA professional and director of golf at Noblesville Parks.

“As a golf professional I was not excited at all – something fun for someone else – but as I heard more it makes money and is a good way of having fun,” Deakyne said.

The biggest advantage of adding FootGolf is that it does not disrupt the course. Golf and foot golf courses will both be available for play any-time that Fox Prairie is open.

“We can integrate it with golf at the same time,” Deakyne said. “We are not closing down the ‘West 9’ for FootGolf. We can have a group play FootGolf with a group of golfers right behind them.”

In addition to creating another recreational activity, officials said FootGolf provides a differ-ent revenue stream.

“As the golf industry continues to decline we have to look outside the box and do everything we can to find creative ways to drive revenue,” Bennett said.

“The game of golf in general across the coun-try is in decline in play and revenue,” said Hoff-meister. “The largest youth sport is soccer. If we

want kids to be more engaged in golf why not bring in soccer?”

Hoffmeister, a former soccer coach, said Foot-Golf teaches ball control, shaping a shot, accu-racy, distance and team camaraderie.

“It teaches while you have fun at the same time,” he said.

Bennett said another benefit of FootGolf is getting more people to Fox Prairie.

“It exposes people who wouldn’t normally be out here. We’re going to try to grow golf from that standpoint,” he said.

Like disc golf, which has seven courses in Hamilton County including Dr. James A. Dillon and Morse Beach parks in Noblesville, FootGolf is becoming more popular across the nation.

“If we don’t build it now we’ll be behind the time,” Hoffmeister said.

Bennett said a typical par 4 in golf is 350 to 400 yards. In FootGolf it is 130 yards. The size difference allows two or three holes to be placed on one golf hole and “out of the normal area of play.” Deakyne said golfers should not notice the FootGolf course.

“If you do, you’re not hitting (the ball) where you are supposed to hit it,” Deakyne said. “You’ll never know FootGolf is out there.”

Officials said the fall opening will allow them time and feedback to make improvements before the spring. Bennett said the parks department is

looking to partner with local soccer clubs includ-ing the Noblesville Soccer Club, which has fields less than a mile from Fox Prairie.

Bennett said the cost for FootGolf is consider-ably cheaper than golf and the pace is quicker.

“You have 13 clubs in a bag and before you hit the ball you have to decide what club, find distance and take practice swings. With FootGolf you walk up to the ball and kick it. You don’t have to decide anything,” he said. “The whole family can come out and kick the ball. That’s the beauty of soccer – kids can play at an early age.”

The west nine holes of Fox Prairie Golf Course also will be home to the 18-hole FootGolf Course. Officials said FootGolf holes will be in areas not in the normal part of play for traditional golfers.

the increasing “destruction” of his city by their new Chinese overlords that they are hoping to send these children to live with relatives in Canada. The conflict of a loving father caring so deeply and fearing so much that he is wrestling with such matters weighed upon him. We talked. Really, I just listened.

When our time together ended, he regained himself, apologized for oversharing (in a charac-teristic Asia way) and shook my hand express-ing sincere gratitude for my attention. Did I say anything to help him with his challenges? I doubt it. But, did his venting give him clarity? I hope so. His sadness, frustration, and compassion were breathtaking in their raw sincerity. Our freedom matters. And, he reminded me of it.

Commentary by Terry Anker

He introduced himself when we met, but I didn’t bother to commit his name to memory. Sharing a ride to the airport, the chance we’d meet again after this 45 minutes was likely zero; yet he seemed in the mood to talk. I don’t know if it was the way I reacted to what he said or simply the fact that I seemed willing to listen, but this young stranger started telling me his story.

We were in his native city of Hong Kong and he loved it. He married a local girl and had two children, now 4 and 5 years-old. In a place where multiple kids are rare, he took pride that he could support and raise them. He wasn’t particularly well educated or even especially special. But he held a couple of jobs and seemed willing to do more if he could to help give his family an advan-tage. His wife, he beamed, was the same. They owned a small apartment and sent their children to a private school.

But now they had become so concerned of

The weekly drama series that is the Na-tional Football League has released a new episode. The plot goes like this (stay with us): All-Pro running back Adrian Peterson of the Minnesota Vikings is said to have punished his child May 18 with a switch, causing lacera-tions and bruising. Then on Aug. 21, Peterson testifies in front of a grand jury in Montgomery County, Texas. On Sept. 4 the grand jury de-cides not to indict Peterson. Then on Sept. 11, Peterson misses practice for what his coach terms a “veteran day” off. Come Sept. 12, Peterson is indicted for reckless or negligent injury to a child in Montgomery County and less than half an hour later the team deacti-vates him for one game. On Sept. 13, he turns himself in to Montgomery County authorities and is released on $15,000 bond. On Sept. 15, Peterson releases a statement on child abuse charges. Later that day, he is reinstated to the team, because he was just “disciplining a child.” Later that evening, a previous allegation of child abuse by Peterson is reported. He was not charged in the incident.

On Sept. 16, Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton says Peterson is innocent until proven guilty, but his actions are “a public embarrassment” to Minnesota and suggests that the running back be suspended. Sponsors adjourn their support of the team, and rightly so. It looks like he is out indefinitely until the case is resolved, and with the photos we’ve seen it will be re-solved in not a good way for Peterson. No one is more concerned about child abuse than we are. We also believe in due process. This is no rush to judgment, in our opinion, although that runs rampant no matter the topic. If Peterson is convicted for the purported abuse, he will pay many times over. Will this be an example for others contemplating such levels of pun-ishment? No, sadly, it won’t. There’s a liberal element of pop culture that simply accepts it, which is just as sad.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Of whom am I thinking? They’re fond of acronyms like NSDA, IHSFA, and NFL, and use words like “interp,” “extemp,” and “sweep-

stakes.” They spend their Satur-days participating in events like LD and OO and measure their

success in points and diamonds. And they are VERY ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT WHAT THEY DO! Any guesses? Anyone? They are speech and debat-ers, my friends, and now yours truly is one too!

I know, I know. What’s a ginger, mother-of-four math guru doing dabbling in such unchartered territory? To be truthful, I didn’t actually mean to get so involved. I thought I was applying for an “assistant” position only to discover after I’d accepted that the head coach had already backed out. The ole bait and switch, really. (Or, de bate and speech. Get it? I’m funny!) Not a big deal, I suppose, except that I have absolutely no experience whatso-ever. And that’s not an exaggeration. We didn’t have a speech or debate team at my high school, and I never took part in college. I’m not even an English teacher, for God’s sake. Seri-ously, I feel like a cheerleader who’s just been named the new offensive coordinator for the Colts when all I wanted to do was shake poms at halftime!

What’s worse, I have no predecessor, nor a team to inherit. So not only am I totally clue-less on the rules, regulations, and various distinctions of the 18 available events, I’m also having to recruit members, round up judges, register with the national and state associa-tions, plan meaningful practices, and obtain a license to drive the stupid mini-bus!

Consequently, I spent the past weekend hob-nobbing with Indiana’s brightest and fin-est at the annual S&D coaches conference, attempting to absorb enough know-how to ensure my 10 [brave] students don’t puke, pass out or completely embarrass themselves at the first competition. Not sure whether it was a success. I did learn a lot of useful information, not the least of which was that if swim meets and dances competitions had a love child, she’d be named Speech and De-bate Tournaments. But the rest was simply overwhelming.

The good news is that I do know how to speak and argue (mostly without a Kentucky accent), and from time to time, I can pen some decent material. So maybe I’ll be OK. The NSDA might even award me a diamond for my work with interpers! Peace out.

Computers, Christmas, chaos in Belfry opener

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

For its 50th season, The Belfry Theatre in Noblesville will revive six of its rarer shows from

its history including the opening production “The Desk Set.”

“It’s a little exciting and a little intimidating. Fifty years is a big deal. We’re been doing them for a long time. You want to do it right and do right by everyone so they are glad we are still here and glad they came,” director Christy Clinton said.

“The Desk Set” was previ-ously performed in 1983 and directed by Betty Lou Kyle.

“There’s not many people around that saw the first show. ‘The Desk Set’ was popular in its time,” Clinton said. “I kind of like that it’s old fash-ioned. It’s a three-act play instead of modern day two acts … There’s a lot of creativity going into this. Nobody’s holding anything back.”

The play is set in the ’50s.“It brings that era home in ways that are fun

and broad,” Clinton said. “The second act is a Christmas party full of alcohol and food. They’re off in other offices dancing and partying. I can’t remember the last time I heard of such a party in

an office … It’s fun to see those old ways.”Clinton said the crux of the story is about

the first computer coming in and changing the workplace.

“The office life was very different from today, not only because of computers but also social norms. It is interesting to see all the things that would absolutely not happen today,” said actress Sarah Baron. “One of my favorite things about playing a ’50s era piece is the attire, the silhou-ettes and accessories are so much fun.”

Baron, who plays Bunny Watson, said the show contains many different characters that are very relatable and have aspects that remind her of her own past and present co-workers.

“The other thing about this show that makes it a lot of fun to see is the difference between then and now where computers are involved. Today computers are so much a part of everyday life you forget they were not always warmly welcomed,” she said.

Actor John Parks Whitaker said the prophetic nature of the subject matter is fascinating.

“The play wasn’t written recently about the past. It was written contemporaneously about computers taking over offices and the panic it caused,” he said. “William Marchant managed to find the lighter side and put together a great comedy about the process.”

Whitaker plays the male lead, Richard Sumner.“My character is fun to play because he starts

off on such a high horse and has a long way to fall when things start not going his way,” he said.

Clinton’s cast includes a number of seasoned actors and a few making their debut like Joe Mize as a reporter and Richard Sceniak as a photographer.

“Richard said he might want to try sometime. When he heard there was a part with no lines he said, ‘That’s right up my alley. I want to try that,’” Clinton said.

Other members of “The Desk Set” cast include: Debbie Underwood (Sadel Meyer), Dana Lesh (Peg Costello), Katie Gipson (Ruthie Saylor), Jeff Bick (Abe Cutler), Curtis Bittle (Mr. Bennett), Barb Weav-er (The Lady in the Blue Suit), Michael Tooker (Ken-ny), Valerie Pearce (Elsa), Justin Hoggard (Elsa’s friend), Fran Knapp (Miss Warriner), Deb Coon and M.J. Bick (office workers) and hosts, Emily Stone, Susan Townsend and Michel Jenkins.

“The Desk Set” • The Belfry Theater, 16090 Greenfield Ave., Noblesville • Performances are 8 p.m. Sept. 26 and 27 and Oct. 3, 4, 10 and 11; and 2 p.m. Oct. 5 and 12 • Tickets are $15 and $12 for ages 12 and younger • http:thebelfrytheatre.com • 773-1085

What people want to eat and drink Tailgating by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley

You can always ask the age-old philosophical question, “What is the meaning of life?” And you’d probably get an earful from a philosopher, but these people don’t generally attend things like football games, and they surely aren’t found at our tailgate parties. Tailgate captains, however, ask the honest question, “What do you want to eat?” This is a simple information-seeking query that we have been asking for more than 19 years.

More than the past two decades we have asked this simple question at football game park-ing lots and on our web site (tailgatershandbook.com). The answers we have gotten made us change our survey to fit the seasons and times of day. Now we ask, “In warm weather, what is your favorite main course food?” We now also ask about side dishes, deserts, snacks/munchies and even beverages in warm weather.

The following boxes reveal America’s choices and then we’ll have recipes we’ve found in park-ing lots from the East to the West.

What is your favorite warm weather main course food?

Since we’ve already covered how to make a great bratwurst, here’s a great Pulled Chicken Sandwich recipe.

Ingredients: 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (about 2 pounds), Salt and pepper, 1 red onion, finely chopped, 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped, 1 1/3 cups barbecue sauce, 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar, Hot pepper sauce, 6 Kaiser or French rolls, split, 6 ounces shredded Munster and/or Monterey Jack cheese (about 1-1/2 cups)

Preparation: Salt and pepper the chicken and place in a heavy pot with the onion, garlic and cover with water. Add the barbecue sauce, vin-egar and a few drops of Frank’s hot sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken from the sauce and shred with two forks. Boil the sauce, skimming occa-sionally, until reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the shredded chicken and heat through. Spoon the mixture onto the rolls and top with the cheese.

Religious comedy opens season

THEaTEr

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

Danny Russel agreed to direct at Westfield Playhouse, 1836 Ind. 32 West, if he could pick

the show. With “God’s Favorite,” which runs Sept. 26 through Oct. 12, Russel has a show that

is a scintillating dark comedy from Neil Simon that failed on Broadway and is rarely performed, which is appealing for him.

“Audiences are already sick to death of old hats like ‘The Odd Couple,’ but with this piece, Simon delivers some of his most profound and delicious humor undercut by a pervasive sense of despair,” he said.

“God’s Favorite” is about successful Long Island businessman Joe Benjamin, a modern-day “Job” with a demanding wife, ungrateful children and wisecracking household employees. Just when it seems things couldn’t get any worse, he is visited by Sidney Lipton, a messenger from God (and compulsive film buff) with a mission: test Joe’s faith and report back to “the Boss.”

“While examining their own faith, my hope is that audiences will find redemption and joy from the humanity on display in this modern-day retelling of Job and conclude that ‘all Scripture is inspired by God’ (2 Timothy 3:16),” Russel said.

Russel said his actors were recruited espe-cially for the project as they exuded necessary charisma and matched a specific age and physi-cal type dictated by the author.

“There’s certainly a vibrant sense of commu-nity in working with familiar talent; with honesty and efficiency, we needed to create that strong family dynamic in a curtailed rehearsal period,” he said.

Actor Tom Doman of Carmel recommends at-tending the show because of its comedy and cast.

“I think the cast is very talented,” he said. “It’s going to be a good show and the audience will not be here for three hours.”

Tickets are $12 and $10 for seniors. For reser-vations, call 896-2707. For more information, visit www.westfieldplayhouse.org.

Man vs. Woman vs. Machine in this hilarious comedy!

In 2013-14, Sheridan Elementary School partnered with United Way of Central Indiana to offer ReadUP tutoring to struggling 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students.

During the school year, 16 students participated in ReadUP. All students received tutoring

services three days a week, for a total of 25 weeks, or 75 sessions, throughout the school year. Twelve of 16 students met or exceeded the expected yearly growth. Additionally, three students advanced their skills two grade levels within the year. This was certainly an unexpected growth, as these three children are now not only reading on grade level, but are performing “above proficiently” compared to their peers!

In addition to academic success, the principal of SES supports the program by stating, “I am always appreciative of adults coming in and building positive relationships with our students — both academically and socially.”

Oktoberfest celebration Sept. 27

fEsTIval

By Holly Kline • [email protected]

German food and dancing plus entertainment for kids, live music and a beer garden will be

on hand at the ninth annual “Fishers Oktoberfest Saxony” from noon to 10 p.m., Sept. 27

Located at Saxony’s Witten Park in Fishers, this popular festival boasts free admission and ac-tivities for all ages.

Oktoberfest is hosted by the Fishers Free-dom Festival, along with help from Saxony and Leinenkugel.

“We had approximately 5,000 in attendance at Oktoberfest last year,” said Jennifer Kehl, Fishers Freedom Festival executive director. “That was the best year ever.”

The event is a fundraiser for the Freedom Festival.

“We get a percentage of food sales, and we make money on the beer,” Kehl said. “Our profits go to the Fishers Freedom Festival. The money we raise goes into the Festival’s general fund to pay for the free activities at the Freedom Festival.”

An Oktoberfest celebration traditionally includes a beer garden and the Fishers Okto-berfest is no exception. The beer garden will be open from noon to 10 p.m. and adults can purchase beer or wine for $5.

Kehl pointed out additional highlights for this year’s event.

“The American German Club in Indy is going

to provide German dancers,” she said. “From noon to 3 p.m. businesses are going to provide kid games and we’ll have face painting, balloon artists and a photo booth with lots of fun props. At 6:30 p.m. there will be a contest for the best German costume.”

Polka music begins at noon, Big Daddy Caddy plays at 3:30 p.m. and My Yellow Rickshaw per-forms from 7 to 10 p.m. Arts and crafts vendors will also be set up.

“We’ve grown the crafters from about 15 to 40,” Kehl said. “We’ll keep it that size because the more we do, the more volunteers we need. The whole festival is a nice size right now.”

Attendees are encouraged to bring canned goods to the festival and the food collected will be donated to the Fall Creek Township food pantry. For more information, visit www.fishers-freedomfestival.org

Sleep for heart, other reasons

WEllNEss

From the IUHealth blog

In today’s fast-paced world, it can be challenging to find the time to do every-thing you need to accomplish in a single day. Between working, commuting, making

time for family and friends, exercising, eating healthy, and still squeezing in time for fun and relaxation, it’s easy to start cut-ting out sleep as a time management technique. While depriving

yourself of sleep may give you the time to catch up on your favorite TV shows, it can also have negative effects on your overall health.

• Premature aging. Sleep deprivation affects the body in a way that is similar to aging. Insufficient sleep causes the body to release the stress hormone cortisol, which can prema-turely age your skin over a prolonged period of time. Sleep loss also reduces the amount of human growth hormone (HGH) that your body produces, which helps to maintain your skin and muscle mass. Less HGH means that your body is less able to repair its tissues and keep your skin looking youthful.

• Chronic illness. Chronic lack of sleep can increase your risk for a variety of health conditions, including heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke and diabetes. In particular, lack of sleep dramatically increases your risk for cardiovascular disease. Not getting enough sleep can also weaken the im-mune system, making you more susceptible to seasonal illnesses like colds and the flu.

• Weight gain. On top of everything else, chronic sleep deprivation can also cause weight gain. Sleep-deprived people tend to crave high-fat, high-carbohy-drate foods, and their bodies have a harder time regulating appetite.

If you have been wearing your lack of sleep like a badge of honor and claim-ing that you “can sleep when you’re dead,” it may be time to find a new motto. Getting sufficient sleep is a critical component of a healthy lifestyle.

With average home prices reaching $176,835 in August 2014, home sales prices are up 6.7

percent compared to August 2013.

Hamilton County was among the counties that experienced slightly higher home sales prices in the first eight months of 2014 compared to the same time period last year. On average, homes sold for $268,408.

• In Noblesville, the average year-to-date sale price in August was $209,185, an increase of 2 percent compared to the same time period last year.

• Inventory is moving fast. Last month, homes in Noblesville remained on the market an average of 71 days, which is a decrease of four days from August 2013.

• The number of homes for sale in Noblesville is rising. In August 2014, 434 homes were on the market, an increase of 66 homes com-

pared to August 2013.• Pended home sales in Noblesville remains

unchanged from last year – 122 homes pended in August 2013 and August 2014

• Of the pended home sales in Noblesville last month, four were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 19 were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 28 were priced $200,000 to $299,999; 63 were priced $100,000 to $199,999; and eight were priced at $99,999 or less.

This year’s sales are healthy although they ap-pear sluggish compared to last year, which was the fourth best year in Indianapolis real estate history. Even as sales typically slow during au-tumn and winter months, we believe the Central Indiana housing market will remain strong.

Commentary by Joseph Hankins

Estate planning is a powerful tool that en-ables you to direct exactly how your assets will

be handled upon your death or disability. A well-crafted estate plan, including a living will and

trust will ensure you and your family avoid the difficulties of a court-appointed guardianship or conservatorship, court-administered probate or an unpleasant estate tax surprise.

Unfortunately, many individuals fall victim to these estate planning myths:

Myth: I don’t need an estate plan because I’m not wealthy.

Fact: Estate planning is not only for the wealthy. It provides many benefits regardless of your income or assets. A good estate plan in-cludes provisions for caring for a minor or disabled child, ensuring a comfortable standard of living for a surviving spouse, providing for pets or transfer-ring ownership of property or business interests.Myth: I’m too young to create an estate plan.

Avoid these estate-planning myths

fINaNCE

Fact: Accidents happen. None of us knows precisely when we will die or if we will become incapacitated. Even if you do not have substan-tial assets or a family to support, you should have a power of attorney and health care direc-tive. These documents can ensure that you are provided for in the manner that you desire. Myth: I don’t need a living trust if I have a will.

Fact: A properly drafted trust contains provi-sions addressing what happens to your property if you become incapacitated. A will only becomes effective upon your death, and outlines who will receive your property when you pass. If you own property, or have more than $100,000 in assets, both a will and a living trust are generally recommended.

Commentary by Don Knebel

The Blue Mosque is one of Istanbul’s most popular tourist destinations, often seen as an

example of classic Islamic architec-ture. Like other domed mosques, its design actually mimics a

famous church. But its pest control system is undeniably novel.

Ahmed I became Sultan of the Ottoman Em-pire in 1603, at age 13. After a series of military setbacks, Ahmed sought God’s favor by building a mosque in Istanbul to rival the one built in 1558 by Suleiman the Magnificent, his much more successful predecessor. Like Suleiman, Ahmed modeled his mosque on Hagia Sophia, built as a church by Byzantine Emperor Justinian in 537 A.D. and later converted to a mosque by adding a mihrab in the direction of Mecca and minarets. Ahmed’s architects lacked the skill (or courage) of those of Justinian, who imaginatively supported the massive dome of Hagia Sophia on its exterior walls. The smaller dome of Ahmed’s mosque is supported on four interior columns derided as “elephant legs.” Light from more than 200 stained glass windows is supplemented by ornate chan-deliers holding uncooked ostrich eggs intended to repel spiders and prevent unsightly webs.

Blue Mosque: Domes and eggsThe Blue Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey (Photo by Don Knebel)

Ahmed surrounded his mosque with six nee-dle-shaped minarets carrying a total of sixteen balconies honoring him as the 16th sultan. When Islamic authorities in Mecca learned of the mina-rets, two more than around both Hagia Sophia and Suleiman’s mosque, they were outraged. The Great Mosque in Mecca had six minarets and, as the holiest place in Islam, was not to be outranked in the minaret department. Ahmed reportedly solved the problem by financing the construction of a seventh minaret in Mecca.

Ahmed died at age 27, a year after completion of his mosque, and was interred in a mausoleum just outside the walls. Although his mosque is officially known as the “Sultan Ahmed Mosque,” it is popularly known as the “Blue Mosque” be-cause of 20,000 handmade blue and white tiles in 50 different designs adorning its interior. Still used by Muslim worshippers, the Blue Mosque is open to the public except during daily prayers. Visitors can see for themselves if the ostrich eggs really work.

INsIDE & OUT

Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Outdoor fire features are like well-planned granite kitchen counters, they are a destination

for guests to gather around. And, it doesn’t matter if a fire is roaring or cooking taking

place. They are fun magnets for gathering and entertaining.

Fortunately there are accommodating styles with moderating price points and we appreciate them all. Let your jazzed passion, home sur-rounds and budget influence the feature that best suits your outdoor living space. From the simple $100 fire bowls to formal outdoor fire-places that generally start at $15,000 and quickly escalate with any customization.

Boulder and natural stone fire features are some of our favorites. They feel genuine, echo-ing nature and the highly textured surrounds of outside. The pictured fire feature resides in Carmel and was constructed with Chocolate natural stone with cut edges and consistent thickness. Capped with Tennessee Valley flagstone, its over-sized dimension meets the ambitious homeowner demand for large gatherings with space around for sitting, smoking cigars and enjoying the golf course view. A definite “Carpe Diem” space.

To ensure your fire feature is safe, take the following steps:

• Never leave the fire unattended.• Establish a child safety zone around the edge.

Adding a spark to fire features

• Check for low hanging branches nearby and prune.

• Build fire features at least 10 feet from your home.

• Keep a fire extinguisher or hose convenient.• Completely extinguish before leaving.Let this fall season be one where we inten-

tionally gather to appreciate the outdoors, fam-ily, neighbors and autumn’s brilliant display of colors. Schedule a cookout. Light a fire. Enjoy the outdoors like never before.

When using hardwood, expand it as far as your budget will allow is one way to increase the perceived value of your remodel. (Submitted photo)

Remodel-industry secrets add value to your investmentCommentary by David Decker

While remodels come with considerable costs, the long-term gains can be significant both in quality of life and financial gain.

This is about creating and adding financial value to your home.

You want to make strategic renovations that will keep your home competitive when compared to other options in the same market, especially if you are planning to sell it in the near future. Notice the aforementioned word “strategic.” Finan-cially, it’s best to invest in home renovations that will help your home fall within an acceptable price range for the market. Too few updates, and your home won’t have the wow factor many buyers are looking for. Too many updates, and your home will not fit the price of comparable properties in the area, and it may become difficult to sell. It’s all about balancing the factors, so that the end product is a beautiful home that fits the price demands of pro-spective buyers.

Planning a strategic remodel requires research and product knowledge. We all know that the end goal is to create value, which is determined in dollars. But there is another concept that I like to focus on, “perceived value.” Consider:

• Oftentimes it is possible to find lower-cost products that look as impressive and perform as well as their more costly coun-terparts. Buyers are unable to tell the difference.

• First impressions matter.• Get to know your segment of potential buyers. A Baby

Boomer is going to look for different things in a home than a Gen Xer.

• Research the type of buyers moving in your area and try to make choices that will fit that group’s needs.

• Never use inferior products or sacrifice quality by cutting corners. You want lasting value with a remodel.

• Researching prices, materials and new solutions before you install is absolutely worth the added planning. This is where the help of a professional remodeling team can be invaluable. The investment of collaborating with professional designers is worth it in the end.

• You can afford to use more expensive products in smaller quantities where it may be a better value for your home. For example, when remodeling a bathroom you could choose an inexpensive tile for the shower surround but add some glass mosaics or accent strips to maximize value. Glass is expen-sive, but when it is used in small amounts won’t break the bank and will provide an exceptional return on your money.

• In the kitchen, hardware, the jewelry of your home, can make a major difference in the look and feel of the room and is much less expensive than replacing cabinetry.

• When using hardwood on the main floor, expand the hard-wood as far as your budget will allow.

The Affordable Companies is rehabbing a Carmel “investment” home, a project we’ve titled “The Kingswood Transformation.” We’ve worked hard to put all of the advice I’ve just given into prac-tical use. Beginning Sept. 28, the home will be open to the public, so home and real estate investors will be able to view the remod-eling project in its entirety. Visit the website: http://the-affordable-companies.com/kingswoodtransformation or plan to attend our upcoming open house to spark ideas on ways that you, too, can create value in your current home or investment property.
