Just seven and a half months after breaking ground, organizers for the Angel of Hope in Noblesville’s Forest

Park will dedicate the memorial at 3 p.m. May 4.

“This is the most exciting thing I’ve ever done in my life and the most fulfilling,” said Kirk Forbes, memorial organizer.

Forbes said the memorial garden is “to help all parents in our community who have lost children.” The Hamilton County memorial will be the 123rd Angel of Hope in the nation.

“I think it is an opportunity for closure for a lot of people in the community,” Forbes said. “She truly does represent hope for the whole community. Hope to get you through the grief of losing a child. Sometimes all you have is hope to hang your hat on.”

The memorial centers on the Angel of Hope statue, which stands about 7 feet tall. It will be an octagon shape measuring 48 feet across with bricks engraved with children’s names and messages from families and friends radiating out from the angel. Three large flower pots will celebrate the children’s lives. Surrounding the brick memo-rial will be bushes and trees. The memorial will be illumi-nated by a lighting system. A 60-foot path will lead from the main-park walking path to the memorial.

Forbes said the project was originally priced at $125,000 but the final cost dropped to almost half, courtesy of dona-tions or discounts from a variety of vendors including Gay-lor Electric, Daystar Boring and Beaver Materials. From 5 to 8 p.m. May 1, Culver’s in Noblesville will provide a portion of its proceeds to the memorial.

“The community stepped forward and surprised us in a major way,” Forbes said.

Other fundraising efforts included the purchase of sev-eral memorial pieces and memorial bricks, which are still being sold for $100. One brick purchased belongs to Jim and Brandi Bates who lost their son, Zander, to an umbili-cal cord complication during his birth on Aug. 20, 2010.

“I go to the one (Angel of Hope) in Avon to break down sometimes. It’s a neat thing the city has allowed to come to the area. It will be very beneficial for the people of Noblesville and Indianapolis,” Brandi said.

Brandi said infant and child death has been a taboo topic in the past and thinks the memorial will provide sup-port for parents and family members.

“It’s a wonderful place to provide solace and remem-brance for parents who lost children,” Brandi said. “It’s a

peaceful area for it – kinda secluded and semi shaded.”“This is a next-level project,” Jim said. “It’s a place where

anyone who needs some reflection time can go.”Don Seal, former Noblesville Parks director and member

of the park foundation, said the memorial was something different for the parks system.

“It’s an appropriate use for a public park,” he said. “The more we looked at it, we understood the feeling of how important Forest Park has been for their families. It be-came obvious this was the place for it to be.”

By Aaron Coats, M.D.

It’s marathon season, and as runners in training take to the trails, the incidence of injuries goes up as well. The good news is that most of the runners I see can be treated with non-operative methods.

Overuse injuries are the most common by far. People are starting to increase their mileage and get ready for the activities coming up in the spring and the summer. As a result, I see a lot of patellar tendinitis — injuries affecting the tendon that connects the kneecap (patella) to the shinbone. Runners tend to have pain around the front of the knee, known as patellofemoral pain.

There are preventive strategies that runners can use to try to minimize their risk of injury. I tell people to listen to their body and increase their mileage at a gradual level. It’s unrealistic to immediately go out and try to do what you were doing at your peak the previous year. With running, it starts with your core and then proceeds from there, like the familiar concept of a kinetic chain. You need good strength in your thigh muscles and hamstrings, and you have to prepare with good stretching techniques before running. It even extends to the right footwear. All of these create a foundation for runners to eventually hit their peak performance while minimizing their risk of injury.

St.Vincent Fishers Hospital offers therapy services for a lot of the injuries that can impact runners, such as common non-operative knee problems. Often it’s a multi-disciplinary approach, with the sports physician, the primary care doctor and the therapist all

working together to create a plan with the patient to get them back to their pre-injury level of running. And for runners looking to find ways to reach their potential, St.Vincent Sports Performance offers evaluation of running technique as part of their services that help clients attain and exceed their goals.

I’ve always been interested in treating patients that were active and wanted to get to competitive levels of sports. That spurred my involvement with orthopedic surgery and a desire to really hone in on the treatment of sports injuries. Today my main emphasis is on surgical and non-surgical treatment of shoulder and knee injuries.

The St.Vincent Geist Half Marathon is coming up on Saturday, May 17. Please join me on Friday, May 16 for the Expo, hosted at St.Vincent Fishers. As part of the seminar series, I will be presenting on overuse injuries, and would welcome any of your questions.

More than 500 chamber members from Car-mel, Fishers, Hamilton North, Noblesville,

Sheridan and Westfield attended the Third An-nual Hamilton County

Chambers Collaborative Luncheon on April 23 at the Ritz Charles to hear Pa-tricia Martin’s presentation on “Will the future like you?”

Martin is CEO of LitLamp Communica-tions and the author of RenGen, and Tipping the Culture. Her presentation focused on the millennials (ages 18 to 31) and how the lack of strong personal identity due to the digital era and the quest for continued knowledge can be drawn upon to create a strong and connected community here in Hamilton County.

“If you made this county a place where every-one graduates employable, highly successful and highly prepared. There needs to be lots and lots of ways to learn because here’s the sad truth about growing up in a period of elongated uncer-tainty, it had taught milennials one hard lesson, that they will learn and learn and learn because they don’t want to turn out to be like their par-ents who are 50 and fired, because they didn’t have skills that would translate for the future,” said Martin.

RDS Office Furniture’s Dave Sicklesteel, 58, found Martin’s presentation to resonate with some issues

Focusing on the county’s futurehe deals with daily as a business owner.

“I thought the speaker they chose was very appropriate. Boomers like myself don’t under-stand millennials; we tend to assume we can’t

connect with them. Martin gave ex-amples of great ways we can learn to connect,” he said.

Those same sentiments seemed to resonate with the vast majority of the chamber members in attendance.

Jana Denninger, an advertising and branding specialist, had similar feelings about the topic.

“I felt that the speaker was incredibly enlight-ening and though provoking. It got me thinking about how we can relate more effectively to millennials in tangible ways,” she said. “In busi-ness you need to learn how to relate to many different age groups.”

Martin sent a strong and powerful message to business community in Hamilton County, we need to continue to strive to have excellent and continued education and continue to focus on improving and expanding our downtowns. She said the new generation of baby boomers are looking to build a continuous bank of knowledge and have places in their community where they can socialize outside of the digital realm.

So, to answer the question: Will the future like us?

“If we can work together and we can cooper-ate, the future will like us,” Martin said.

Hamilton County’s emergency communication services will become more efficient as a new

911-dispatch soft-ware program has been selected by

a committee of fire, police, records and public-safety personnel.

“It’s absolutely a game-changer,” Noblesville Police Chief Kevin Jowitt said. “We will have information available at our fingertips that will fundamentally change the ways we do our jobs.”

Michael Snowden, executive director of com-munications, said InterAct was selected over OSSI and New World, the current software being used in the county. Snowden expects the conversion to be completed by the beginning of 2015 and the move will not affect any staffing positions.

“The interoperability – share information with other agencies – is just huge,” he said.

“We feel, from a public-safety standpoint, that InterAct is the right product to move to,” Sheriff Mark Bowen said.

Hamilton County has been using two software dispatch systems for the past year and a half since all dispatchers were consolidated into one center. When taking a call, emergency dispatch-es have two different forms they can fill out – one for Noblesville and Westfield and another for the other county public-safety agencies.

New 911 dispatch software chosen

gOvErNMENT

“I’ve never seen an agency use two systems for more than a few weeks at a time,” said Snowden, who has worked in the public-safety field for 27 years.

The software component is the final step in upgrading the public-safety com-munication network in Hamilton County. First, the various dispatch centers were combined to one location in the Sheriff’s Office. Then new radios and cell towers were installed.

InterAct is used by the Indiana State Police, Marion County and most of the

surrounding doughnut counties. By being on the same system, public safety officials will have access to their records. The web-based system also protects the county in case of power loss or computer issues.

“It builds in redundancy we don’t currently have now. If we lost a server, folks can still ac-cess the site and we’ll still have functionality on the web,” Jowitt said.

“If we lose connectivity, pen and paper is the backup system (currently),” Snowden said.

Snowden was given permission to begin preliminary negotiations with InterAct by the Hamilton County Commissioners. He said it was too early to discuss costs but Commissioner Christine Altman said the county would cover the software costs and conversion so municipalities won’t incur fees.

With the birth of the Internet, new and ex-citing opportunities opened themselves up to

business owners everywhere, not to mention job prospects. One small business owner,

Steve Burzynski, teamed up with long-time business partner, Gerald Stanley, and took a leap of faith.

In 2001, the powerful duo created Imavex LLC, a database management system, in Noblesville. During the past 13 years it has developed into a strategic Internet marketing com-pany, which allows business owners the chance at professional web design and market-ing businesses online.

“We have clients in 510 cities, 43 states and 10 dif-ferent countries,” Burzynski said.

As the Internet evolved so did Imavex. Five years in, the company introduced a new partner to the firm, Ryan Mull.

“This was really the transition from just a web designing company to an Internet marketing firm,” Burzynski said.

For any business, developing a brand and constructing the website are important steps. Imavex has designed a calculated and effective method for businesses to develop successful websites.

Laura Sutter, right, and Shane Trowbridge work on a project at Imavex in Noblesville.

“It’s really a hands-on experience for both the clients and my employees,” Burzynski said, add-ing each project is assigned a project manager, designer and developer during the kick-off meet-ing. “The meeting allows the clients to meet who they are going to be working with.”

Projects can last anywhere from 30 days to 12 months – the average being three to four months. The site is given a soft launch in the early stages of development through a private web address. Clients are able to access this ad-dress and watch the construction of their site from wire frames to finished product.

Imavex also provides each of its clients with webinars, which walks them step-by-step through their new site. Before the official launch, Imavex checks each project for use-ability, search engine optimization and Google algo-rithms for best possible results.

“Ownership treats us, the employees, like gold,” said Elizabeth Howard, administrative assistant.

The office space is open and collaborative in order to create a free-expressive environment. The 27 employees consist of an even mix of de-signers, coders, developers and customer service representatives.

“I am so lucky to be a part of this organization and would like people to know that there are companies like Imavex in Noblesville,” she said.

On April 22, Chuy’s Tex Mex Restaurant opened its second Indiana location at Hamilton Town Center, 14150 Town Center Blvd., with a ribbon cutting by Mayor John Ditslear. The Texas-based franchise res-taurant is owned and run by local businessman Russell Burns. “The unbelievable flavors are unique to this restaurant and I can’t wait to bring them to all my friends and neighbors,” he said. Tex-Mex is an uncommon style of Mexican food with a Texas twist that is typically only found around the Texas-Mexico border. It combines the Mexican flavors with the southern style of cooking with an emphasis on always serving fresh food. Burns said the atmosphere of the restaurant matches the colorful food that is served. There are three separate dining rooms, each with its own wild theme. Chuy’s is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday. (Submitted photo)

One of the first American designers whose name appeared on a label, Noblesville’s Norman Norell, was known for making clean, precisely tailored clothes with superb workmanship. Norell, who was born Norman David Levinson on April 20, 1900 in Noblesville, died Oct. 25, 1972 in New York City. His career spanned 50 years and its impact on fashion and influ-ence in the fashion world is still seen today, and an upcoming exhibit at Nickel Plate Arts high-lights his career.

Norell’s rise in fashionNorell’s grandparents, N.D. and “Minnie” Levin-

son, emigrated to Noblesville in the 1850s from Germany. N.D. opened a clothing store in Down-town Noblesville where the Hamilton County Visitors Center is at today.

“They were one of the first Jewish settlers in the area,” Hamilton County Historian David Heighway said. “N.D. Levinson was a tailor, his son Harry also got into clothing and it was just natural for Norman to get into the business, but he wanted a slightly higher level and went to New York for fashion school (Pratt Institute).”

In 1922, Norell joined the New York studio of Paramount Pictures where he designed clothes for Gloria Swanson and other stars of silent movies. In 1928, he was hired by Hattie Carnegie and remained with her until 1941.

“He worked with a couple other famous de-signers and then setup his own studio,” Heigh-way said. “Historically speaking, after World War II the European fashion schools were gone … He leapt right to the top. He was on the cover of Life magazine three times. He was considered the premiere post-war fashion designer. He made America count in fashion.”

COMMUNITY

Norman Norell’s work continues to influence aspiring designers

• Norman Norell spent a short period at military school during World War I.• His uncle, Salmon Oliver Levinson, was the only Noblesville resident nominated for a Noble Peace Prize. He assisted in drafting the Kellogg-

Briand Pact in 1928, which “outlawed” war in a legal sense.• Norell changed his name in 1922. “It’s a combination of Norman Levinson. He added an extra ‘L’ to make it look better,” NHS senior Claire

Bowles said.• While the Levinson family has a prominent history in Noblesville, only Norell and his parents are buried in Crownland Cemetery.

“Since we have no Jewsh burial ground, family members were shipped up to Chicago and buried there. They are the only ones buried here out of the family,” County Historian David Heighway said.

• In 1943 Norell received the first of five Coty American Fashion Critics’ Awards. In 1956, the same year Parsons presented him its Medal for Distinguished Achievement, he was inducted into the Coty Hall of Fame.

• Norell died the night before the opening of a retrospective of his work at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Nickel Plate Arts exhibitFrom 6 to 9 p.m. May 2, Nickel Plate Arts will

host the grand opening of its Mode Locale exhibit featuring Norell and other local fashion design-ers. The exhibit will have fashions from the early 1900s to modern times. Learn about costumes from Conner Prairie, Fishers Renaissance Faire and more. The free exhibit, which runs May 2 through 24, is the first fashion show at NPA.

“It’s something we had been discussing for awhile,” NPA Executive Director Aili McGill said. “It’s a really good reminder that Noblesville has a rich arts heritage. We have a lot to be proud of. Norman Norell’s story is really cool. He had such a huge influence on the fashion world. We want people to see and learn from his story.”

With her interest in fashion, the exhibit is Noblesville High School senior Claire Bowles in-ternship culmination.

“Norell is a main part because he is such a big figure in Noblesville,” she said. “I have always had a love for fashion, and when this became known to Aili, she gave me the opportunity to organize my own exhibit centered around local fashion. It has been an awesome learning expe-rience I never imagined I would get, especially during high school.”

McGill said the internship provided Bowles with the practical side of arts and real-world experience.

“She organized it from the start. We’ve given her leads and conceptually where we want it to go. She is incredibly responsible and tal-ented,” she said. “The subject is fashion but the skills are exhibit design. She has a lot of natural instinct for all of it. She’s a really strong communicator.”

Impacting future designersBowles, 18, is working at NPA this school

year as part of the career exploration internship program, but her interest in fashion began at a young age.

“Like every little girl, I liked clothes and fash-ion at an early age. We had a huge thing to dress up clothes and my sister and I fought over who wore what,” she said. “At the start of high school I really got into it. To make something I can share with the world is crazy and I love it. It expresses who I am – clothes and fashion can do that.”

In the fall, Bowles plans to study fashion merchandising at Ashland University in Ohio. She plans to intern in New York City her junior year of college.

“I went there last summer and immediately fell in love with it. I ultimately want to become a buyer for any large company,” she said. “I like making my own clothing but the design side is so hard to break into. It’s such a dream of mine to pick out pieces that fit back into stores.”

After studying Norell, Bowles said she felt inspired about the fashion industry.

“When I first saw his work I said, ‘This is exactly what I like,’” she said. “Norell made me think, ‘I can do this. If he can do it, I can too’ … Even when I told my friends, they didn’t know

Norell

Interesting facts

we had someone that cool that grew up in Noblesville.”

What Bowles like most about Norell’s work is its timeless appeal.

“It translates to today’s work. It can be rolled over in all the different periods,” she said. “Norell’s designs setup what American fashion came to be. The ideas are from Paris but Ameri-can ready-to-wear. He transformed American fashion through today.”

We find last week’s news of the IRS com-plaints about tight budgets - even though the agency paid massive bonuses to misbehaved employees - to be curious and maddening as hell. This, of course, comes on the heels of us taking our annual shellacking on April 15. What it says to us is that we (and you) should have a thank-you note coming for the extra cash bestowed on these (cough) “high-performing” government workers. The awards totaling $2.8 million, to speak nothing of the approxi-mately 27,000 hours in paid-time-off awards, really have us grinding our molars. This tells us, among other things, that an agency that once targeted conservative groups, and some of whose employees did not pay taxes but grabbed handfuls of reward cash without any resulting castigation (except for a boss los-ing a job), is appearing to be out of control. A report by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration uncovered this whole new mess. The watchdog group determined that more than 2,800 employees either were previ-ously disciplined for conduct issues or for fail-ure to comply with federal tax requirements. Oh, and that money that was doled out? You guessed it; it’s yours. As you may recall, we have revulsion for much of the Republican Party and its leadership, but we believe that were a GOP member in the White House at present, this would be front-page, skewering news on a daily basis. But since the liberal, mainstream media is so enamored of the left, the story simply dies on the vine. Either there is universal dismay for this behavior with re-gard to the IRS (This has to bug you, right?), or America will have thrown in the towel.

surroundings, I found that I was missing much of the beauty of the world around me. But the miles high perspective also brings consideration as it brings awe.

Views of extensive urban sprawl and ever increasing density raise issues of land use. Views of the retreating water levels of Lake Mead, an important reservoir of fresh water for Las Vegas and much of the southwest, suggest questions of conservation and the immediate dependency that we humans exhibit for our own convenience. And, views of much of the Midwest makes one pause at the agricultural abundance produced by so few for so many.

Deception is easy from 30,000 feet. Little is exactly as it appears. Yet from above the clouds, one is reminded that deception is also perpe-trated at street level.

Commentary by Terry Anker

In recent years, I’ve moved my preference from the often more convenient aisle seat to one by the window. It had been my firm belief that being able to stand up quickly upon landing, and to expand my too-large-for-airplane-seat frame into the shared space of the passageway, made up for being assaulted by fellow passengers carrying handbags that could pass for suitcases hitting me in the head as they made their way past. In addition, I thought that having quick ac-cess to the bathroom was worth excusing the other travelers who needed to escape the row at some point.

So now, I visit the men’s room before depart-ing and squeeze myself in next to the curving fuselage of the craft. However, with these adjustments, one gains the world. From the window passing below are the sapphire waters of the Florida coast, the vast breadbasket of the plains, and the majesty of the snow-capped Rockies. Each had been unnoticed by me – in my own eagerness to maintain control over my

Editor,It is probably stupid to get attached to a

piece of land that has nothing more than the soccer goals, a barn in the corner, and half the grass that a soccer field needs. But after play-ing soccer at Habig for eight years, I’ll honestly miss it. I’ve met so many great people I’ll never forget, it’s crazy. And I made some of my best friends on those sidelines. It may not look gor-geous, but look a little deeper and you will see the memories I do. In the corner by the base-ball fields there is a small stream surrounded by little trees that split into 3 tiny waterfalls. On those fields it didn’t matter what clothes we wore or who our friends were. We could just be ourselves and have fun. So, when soccer moves to Shamrock Springs Field this spring, I’ll honestly miss Habig more than I should, because those fields are a part of of who I am. And that will never change.

Fields are more than open grass

Unsubstanstiated claimsEditor,

I am writing to point out some of the claims made at the political forums recently. I have heard of a number of untruths. For instance one of the Coroner candidates claims he has worked for the past three coroners, but, when I think back I have worked closely with the coroner’s office for the past eight to 10 years and I do not ever recall this individual work-ing for them. I am also very familiar with the training required and the continuing education required to maintain their certification. This individual has been out of the loop for over a decade. Mr. Conn claims to have done his training in Illinois, which is not recognized by Indiana, as a firefighter I cannot go to Illinois and get continuing education without approval or acceptance from the State of Indiana. When I checked with the Indiana State Coroners Board they state that he has never kept up his certification per the Indiana statutory require-ments. Is this what we want in an elected official? Anyone can call them the number is (765) 479-1934.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

For once I’m going to talk about a positive family experience. So, to all you finger pointers

who think my soul is dead inside, here’s proof that I can be an awe-some mother.

I’d been schlepping back and forth between our house and two different middle schools one morning accommodating both band and orches-tra performances by my twins. Somewhere along the way, all communication broke down and I actually “lost” one of my seventh graders for 20 minutes. [She’d ridden a bus back to her school with a dead cell phone while I waited for her in the other school’s parking lot.] Suffice it to say, after hauling tail across town to get her home and then turning immediately around to retrieve her brother, I was a tad bit annoyed. Added to my frustration was that I had only 10 minutes to get him to Tae Kwon Do. A fairly standard Satur-day morning, true, but nevertheless aggravating.

So when my son hopped into the car and said, “Let’s skip TKD, and do something just the two of us,” my immediate reaction was, “No! We have to stick to the schedule!” Then he reminded me that for Christmas I’d given him a certificate for a “Day Out with Mom”, and I realized he had me.

I called my husband to tell him I was taking the rest of the afternoon off, and then headed for the nearest bowling alley. “Hurricane” Andrew beat me

An awesome day out with momsquarely in two rounds of pins, even though the first win was only because a glitch in the stupid computer scored him a strike on his 10th frame. (He found that hilarious, of course.) Then we en-joyed a wonderfully fatty meal at Steak-n-Shake while we colored the children’s menu and built a paper race car. Three solid hours of one-on-one time with my youngest son, a soon-to-be teen-ager. When will that ever happen again?

I hope soon, actually. It’s amazing how dif-ferent children are when they aren’t competing with siblings. Andrew was funny, sweet, engag-ing . . . attributes I don’t get to see very often amidst a busy household with an obnoxious 15-year-old and fourth-grade drama queen. He kept asking, “What do you want to do, Mom?” even though it was totally his day to plan. As we headed home, I made a mental note to keep “Day Out with Parent” as an annual stocking stuffer.

The aforementioned obnoxious 15-year-old has yet to cash his certificate, and I’ve heard mention of “skeet shooting.” I say, bring it on. This awe-some mom can’t wait.

Peace out.

Being a little late in a good cause may be a trivial problem when the payoff is expected to be huge. That’s what Eric Stark, artistic director

of the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir, is anticipating when he conducts more than 300 musi-

cians at the Palladium on May 3.In 2013, international observances of the Ben-

jamin Britten birth centennial were widespread. The British musician had made his mark in the 1930s, and by the time he died in 1976, was con-sidered his country’s greatest composer of the 20th century’s middle decades. His “Ceremony of Carols” is frequently heard at Christmastime, and his opera “Peter Grimes” is one of the few modern operas to have a solid place in the repertoire.

Stark planned to climax last season’s sched-ule with a concert devoted to “War Requiem,” Britten’s setting of the Latin Mass for the Dead and poetry by Wilfred Owen, who died in service to king and country mere weeks before the Armistice ended the First World War. The work was commissioned for the 1962 consecration of Coventry Cathedral, which had been damaged in World War II.

But Stark wanted to lead up to the event with a tour of sites significant in Britten’s life beforehand, building anticipation and support among the choir’s donors and friends. Since those concerned with the Britten legacy in the United Kingdom were renovating one of those sites in 2012, the Symphonic Choir’s tour was delayed a year, until last June.

In 2006, Stark had mounted a performance of “War Requiem,” which demands three adept vocal soloists, a large orchestra, and choirs in-cluding a boys’ (or children’s) choir, at St. Luke’s Methodist Church. Though he remains grateful for the church’s accommodating the massive concert, landing the Palladium for the 2014 cen-tennial performance is especially exciting be-cause “it’s the best option in the area,” he said.

Six rows of 50 seats each will be occupied by choristers, comprising 150 Symphonic Choir members, the 40-voice Butler Chorale and 15-20 members of the Indianapolis Men’s

Chorus. About 100 members of the Indianapolis Children’s Choir will be placed in the gallery at the rear of the hall. That leaves the stage for a 100-piece orchestra (the Indianapolis Symphony plus extras) and three soloists: soprano Sinead Mulhern, tenor Thomas Cooley, and baritone Christopheren Nomura.

Stark, who was just named a Sagamore of the Wabash, is now in the midst of a week of rehearsals, culminating in two rehearsals for the massed forces on Thursday and Friday in the Palladium.

“There’s a real through-line to this piece, with the full chorus singing the Latin text only, yet it’s still amazing how the Owen text seems to have been written just for this piece,” Stark said.

Britten was explicitly a pacifist, and this work goes beyond mourning the dead and their sacri-fice in order to protest against war in general.

“The poetry reflects the ghastly horror of trench warfare,” Stark said. “Any romanticized notion is rendered insincere and farcical. What-ever one’s political beliefs, we can rally around the thought that we should treat each other with compassion.”

Conductor Eric Stark will lead a performance of Benjamin Britten’s “War Reqiuem” on May 3.

NIgHT & DAY

By Terri Spilman • [email protected]

The Carmel Community Players continue their “Season of Restoration” with the opening

of Neil Simon’s award-winning play “Lost in Yonkers” on May 1 through May 11.

“The play is different than Simon’s other snappy one-liner plays in that it is more from the heart with deeper characters which makes it among his more poignant works,” said Direc-tor Jim LaMonte. “In short, the play is an actor’s dream, and Simon maintains a balance between poignancy and humor in this moving production.”

Winner of the 1991 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Tony Award for Best Play, the “Lost in Yonkers” is set in the city of Yonkers, N.Y., during 1942 and focuses on the lives of two teenage brothers - Jay and Arty - who are dropped off at the house of their stern grandmother and men-tally-challenged Aunt Bella by their father, Eddie, who took a job as a traveling salesman after the death of their mother.

“The action is filtered through the eyes of 15-year-old Jay (Jude Binkley of Carmel) and his younger brother Arty (Christian Baltz of Carmel). I am so lucky to have these talented boys in the show. Their ability to deliver far exceeds their ages,” LaMonte said. “I think audiences are going to be charmed with them.”

Other leading cast members are Nan Macy (Columbus, Ind.) as Grandma, and Jean Childers

Arnold (Carmel) as Bella, with supporting roles by Jeremy Tuterow (Indianapolis) as Eddie, Joe Aiello (Carmel) portrays gangster Uncle Louie, and Robin Contrell (Indianapolis) plays Aunt Gert.

“Most of Simon’s work is centered on the comedy. Which is great. You go see it, you laugh and go home. With ‘Yonkers,’ there is a lot more to take with you when the curtain falls,” LaMonte said.

The premiere of the Indianapolis Jewish Film Festival will feature nine thought-provoking mov-

ies as a part of a weeklong event, including a documentary shown at University High School in Carmel.

The inaugural festival, which takes place from May 3 to 10, will showcase a variety of film styles, from historical documentaries to dramas to light-hearted comedies. Panel discussions will precede some of the films, including some controversial movies such as “Trembling Before G-D,” a film about Hasidic Jews confronting their homosexuality.

Robert Epstein, an Indianapolis attorney and local Jewish community leader, organized the festival as a way to explore many aspects of Jewish life and history. He said a group of about 20 people, not all of which are Jewish, narrowed down about 200 films to the nine they are showing. He said he wanted the films to be uplifting, but they, “definitely wanted to have a couple films that were cutting edge.”

“We wanted to show films that have something positive say and were not downers,” he said.

As a result, they avoided films about the Holocaust for the first fes-tival. Instead, they have films about topics that many people might have

‘Six Days in June’•MPAA Rating: Not rated (contains war footage) •Runningtime:108minutes•Score:B-plus

Commentary by Christopher Lloyd

Made 40 years after the war it documents, “Six Days in June” is a powerful lesson in history

and human fallibility.Though it lasted less than a

week, the Six-Day War has had a more profound impact on global politics than just about any other conflict in the latter half of the 20th century. Fearing an imminent attack on all sides from mounting Arab forces, Israel launched a preemptive offensive that crushed their enemies’ armies and expansively redrew the boundaries of the still-young Jewish state.

The result was a Jerusalem and Gaza Strip controlled by Israelis but rife with stateless Pales-tinians, and a Middle East defined by Arab/Muslim antipathy toward Israel. Essentially, everything that has happened since - from terrorist intifadas to broken peace talks - has arisen out of that brief and deceptively decisive military action.

Director Ilan Ziv painstakingly paints a portrait of the geopolitical situation before, during and after the war. Relying not just on archival foot-age, he also conducts modern interviews with key figures, both Jews and Arabs, from the high-est levels of the government to common foot soldiers, journalists and bystanders.

We learn what the fighting was like on the ground - the quick annihilation of the Arab air forces, rendering their forces on the ground ef-

been exposed to previously. In Carmel, moviegoers can watch “Six Days in

June” at University High School at 7 p.m. May 9. The film depicts the famous Six-Day War, which took place in 1967. The film explores how the conflict affects the area to this very day.

University High School was chosen as a loca-tion because it is home of Congregation Beth Shalom, but families of any students at the high school can receive free tickets to the movie.

Many of the films will be shown at Christian venues because Epstein wants this festival to be welcoming to people of all faiths. Not only will rabbis be present, but ministers and priests will participate in panel discussions.

fectively impotent as Israeli tanks moved in. Ziv is careful to present the reasoning, emo-tions and miscalcula-tions of those on both sides of the war.

The film reaches two key conclusions. First, that Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser, the regional strongman who whipped up pan-Arab opposition to Israeli, was a self-aggrandizing bluffer who didn’t really want to go to war - at least not until his side was militarily dominant. Second, that Israeli Prime Minister Levi Eshkol was bullied by his generals into a first blow that won the day but set up decades of resentment and struggle.

“Six Days in June” looks back on that fateful war with clear vision and sobering insight.

New outpatient imaging center opens - Indiana University Health North Hospital has opened a new outpatient Imaging center at 10995 Allisonville Rd., Suite 100B, Fishers. This new location joins three other north side Imaging locations: IU Health North Hospital, Carmel; Imaging at Springmill Road, Carmel; and IU Health Saxony Hospital Imaging, Fishers. “By offering multiple sites for Imaging services, we’re making it that much easier for patients to quickly access the services and diagnostic testing they need as close to home as possible,” stated Carl Zenor, manager of Imaging Services at IU Health North Hospital. Services offered at the new facility include x-ray, ultrasound and mammogram. The center is open 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Riverview Health has received its third Chest Pain Center Accreditation from the Society of

Cardiovascular Patient Care, an international not-for-profit organization

that focuses on transforming cardiovascular care.

“We first received the Chest Pain Center Ac-creditation in 2007 and, today, we’re proud to be the only full-service hospital in Hamilton County with open heart surgery capabilities that has this distinction,” stated Tammi Nash, director of Clinical Operations at Riverview Health. “More importantly, this accreditation is a reflection of our dedication to the people we serve and the high standards we have in place when it comes to treating patients with heart attack symptoms. The sooner a heart attack is treated, the less damage to the heart and the better the outcome

for the patient.”To become an Accredited Chest Pain Center,

Riverview Health engaged in rigorous evaluation by SCPC for its ability to assess, diagnose and treat patients who may be experiencing a heart attack. To the community served by Riverview Health this means that processes are in place that meet strict criteria aimed at: reducing the time from onset of symptoms to diagnosis and treatment; treating patients quicker during the critical window of time when the integrity of the heart muscle can be preserved; and monitoring patients when it is not certain they are having a heart attack to ensure they are not sent home too early or needlessly admitted to the hospital.

Riverview Health offers a spectrum of care for heart patients and includes such focal points as dispatch, an emergency medical system, emer-gency department, cutting-edge cath lab, qual-ity assurance plan and a community outreach program.

Riverview Health sets the bar

Commentary by Jim Litten

With average home prices reaching $161,191 in March 2014, home sales prices in central Indiana

are up 6.1 percent compared to March 2013.

Eight of the nine counties that F.C. Tucker tracks experienced slightly higher home sales prices in the first three months of 2014 compared to the same time period last year. Hamilton County is among the areas seeing strong year-to-date average sales prices, up 10.9 percent to $255,747.

• In Noblesville, prices experienced a small decline. For the first three months of 2014, the average price of a home was $194,816, a 0.5 percent decrease compared to the same time period last year.

• Of the home sales in Noblesville last month, one was priced $500,000 to $1 million; eight were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 28 were priced $200,000 to $299,999; 61 were priced $100,000 to $199,999; and eight were pried $99,999 or less.

Home prices begin to level off• Home sales remain pent up from the slow

winter months. In Noblesville, 106 homes sold in March, a decrease of 18 homes com-pared to March 2013. Similarly, sales in Ham-ilton County fell 31.1 percent to 462 homes.

• The number of homes for sale in Noblesville fell. In March 2014, 331 homes were on the market, which is a decrease of 45 homes from March 2013.

• For the first three months of this year, homes in Noblesville remained on the market an average of 89 days, three fewer days compared to the same time period last year.

Now that harsh winter conditions have finally lifted, we expect warmer weather will attract more potential buyers to open houses. As we move into the second quarter, we believe home sales will increase and prices will remain strong.

 March building permit reports indicate that in central Indiana, single-family building permits

increased 3 percent compared to March 2013 year-to-date and have

increased 21 percent during the past month. Reports indicate there have been 1,138 new

home permits issued so far this year compared to 1,104 in 2013.

“We are excited to be seeing the month-to-

month and the year-to-year increases in permit numbers once again,” said Steve Lains, CEO of the Builders Association of Greater Indianapo-lis.  “It is clear that housing creates jobs and is extremely influential in creating the strong economic viability we are beginning to see again here in central Indiana, and we expect to see those numbers continue to rise,” Lains said.     

In central Indiana, the permits issued through March 2014 have created a total economic impact of $203,797,368 in local income, $46,265,376 in local taxes and 3,450 local jobs.

Commentary by Don Knebel

Young Christian girls in Spain dream of mar-rying in the Mezquita, the Great Mosque of Cor-

doba. At the same time, Muslims are barred from praying in the building that illustrates the best of

early Islamic architecture and manifests Spain’s turbulent religious history.

During the early first millennium A.D., the Mezquita’s current location was the site of a temple to Janus, the Roman god of beginnings. In the 6th century, Cordoba was captured by the Visigoths, Germanic Christians deemed heretics by the established church became they refused to accept the divinity of Jesus. After their leader converted to orthodox Christianity in 589, the Visigoths razed the temple and built a church, whose mosaic floor can be seen through a cut-out in the floor of the Mezquita.

Muslims from North Africa conquered Cordoba in 711 and used part of the Visigoth church as their mosque. Later in the 8th century, Abd al-Rahman I, an exile from Syria, established an Islamic dynasty centered in Cordoba and report-edly purchased the site of the Visigoth church for a mosque modeled on the Great Mosque of Damascus. The mosque was expanded by al-

Rahman I’s successors until it covered almost six acres. A flat wooden roof, capable of shading 20,000 worshippers, was supported by 856 Ro-man columns from earlier buildings, their heights extended by novel double brick and stone arches suggesting palm trees.

In 1236 Christians reconquered Cordoba, at the time one of the most important cities in the world. Instead of demolishing the Great Mosque, as they had other Spanish mosques, church leaders removed a large section of the roof and the columns supporting it and erected an ornate cathedral in the middle of the mosque. The cathedral, incorporating gothic, baroque and renaissance themes, remains surrounded by the original columns.

When Holy Roman Emperor Charles V observed the mutilation of the mosque by the embedded church, he reportedly expressed regret at having authorized the construction. That decision none-theless preserved most of the Mezquita, now Spain’s second most visited site.

Commentary by Larry Greene

EXISTING KITCHEN: This historic home located in downtown Noblesville was built in 1880. After

living in the house 19 years, the homeowners realized it was time to update. “When the oven

broke, I wanted to replace it with a new double oven but the space didn’t work. That’s when we decided to go ahead and remodel the entire kitchen as opposed to just replacing the oven.”

MORE ISLAND SEATING: The original island did not accommodate enough seating for the entire family. The base of the island was reduced, giv-ing the countertop the needed overhang for addi-tional bar stools. Also, the cooktop was relocated to the perimeter making it safe for the entire family to dine at the island.

UPDATING EXISTING CABINETS: “The original cabinets were dark with poor storage. However, they were still in great shape so we decided to keep them.” Existing cabinets were modified by a carpenter to make way for new stainless steel appliances. The base and perimeter cabinets were professionally painted with a beige color, making the kitchen appear larger. The island and pantry cabinets were painted in a contrasting gray.

COUNTERTOP AREA: Solid surface countertops in a “Mocha Granit” color were chosen for the perimeter, including a beautiful stone backsplash tile called “California Gold”. “The backsplash is our

RESULT: The homeowner appreciated the careful blend of old and new elements in the remodel of this historic kitchen. “Not only do we love it, our friends and family love it, too. We are all so proud of it.”

favorite part of the remodel. We especially love the enhanced look of the backsplash tile. After the backsplash was installed, we couldn’t stop staring at it. It’s beautiful.”

PLUMBING FIXTURES & HARDWARE: The exist-ing plumbing fixtures were replaced with a double bowl under-mount stainless steel sink, a Delta pull down faucet and a matching filtered water faucet. The brushed nickel cabinet knobs were salvaged

from the original kitchen, which blended perfectly with the new design of the kitchen.
