By Heather Lusk news@currentzionsville.com The Indiana State Historical Society has appointed Eric Spall as Boone County historian new role following the retirement of Zionsville resident Marianne Doyle, who held the role for 18 years. Spall, a resident of Lebanon, is the local history Spall specialist in the Ralph W. Stark Heritage Room of the Lebanon Public Library. “There’s a lot of overlap between what I do (at the library) and what I do with the historical society,” Spall said. “There’s a lot of resources here that I work with every day which I think really helps prepare me for the position.” Doyle enjoyed her time in the role. “There’s not much to dislike about that job,” she said. “It’s time for someone else to do it.” Spall earned a master’s degree in history from Ball State University in 2013 and his master’s degree in library science from IUPUI in 2015. “(Analyzing history is) like working on a puzzle,” Spall said. “You see all these different pieces and you try to connect the dots together to figure out not only what happened, but how and why.” In his new role, Spall will serve as the liaison between the State Historical Society and the many historical institutions in Boone County, including the SullivanMunce Cultural Center and the Zionsville Historical Society. He also will address questions from the public about Boone County. Spall was raised in Fishers but his father and grandfather lived in Lebanon for an extended period of time. He has lived in Boone County since 2013.

Lahey talks benefits of failure By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Zionsville Community Schools held its first public event as part of the Strong in Every Way initiative by education hosting teacher and author Jessica Lahey at the Zionsville Peforming Arts Center March 14. Lahey shared several stories and principles from her bestselling book, “The Gift of Failure.” She said students need to develop autonomy, competence and connections to increase their chances of finding success and fulfillment. “I would far rather have a perfectly average, heck, below average kid who can be frustrated, who can deal with it and take a breath and push through than a super-talented, gifted, wonderful kid who falls apart at the moment they become frustrated,” Lahey said. Lahey has dealt with all kinds of parents, including one mom who said Lahey couldn’t punish her daughter for plagiarism because her daughter didn’t write the report – the mom wrote it herself. Although that example is extreme, Lahey said it’s easy for parents to want to do too much

for their kids to help them avoid failure. “I completely understood the (mother’s) impulse. If my child was under that much emotional strain I would want to do anything I could to alleviate that pain, to take something off of their shoulders, because our kids are under so much stress and we are supposed to protect them,” Lahey said. “That’s all she was trying to do, (but) in a little whacked out way.” After the presentation, Lahey took questions from the audience. She concluded the event signing books and meeting attendees. The Strong in Every Way initiative is designed to encourage students to build non-academic skills, such as grit and resilience.
ZCS reviews drug-testing policy By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com It’s been in the works since 2014, but on March 13 the Zionsville Community Schools board of trustees schools got its first official look at a random drug-testing policy for students at Zionsville Community High School. The proposed policy requires students who participate in athletics, extracurricular activities or who park on school property to participate in the program. ZCHS Principal Tim East said if the program were active today 1,722 of 1,925 students would be required to sign up to maintain eligibility. The program is expected to cost between $3,000 to $5,000 annually and will not be funded through state or local tax dollars. District officials said that the vending machine fund or another like it could be used to pay for the program. The eight-page policy outlines how the program will work, penalties and reasons for implementing the program. In November the board voted 3-2 to implement a policy beginning in the 2017-2018 school year.

The board is expected to vote on the policy at its next meeting, scheduled for 6 p.m. April 10.
the policy • Students expecting to park on school grounds or participate in any extracurricular activities throughout the school year must enroll for random drug testing. • Parents may opt to enroll their students in the random drugptesting program, but they may not opt out. • A random mathematical formula will be used to select students for testing. • The school principal or designee will be notified of a positive test and will notify the student and his or her parents and provide information on counseling and assistance. • Students on a sports team will be suspended from 25 percent of contests after a first positive test and 50 percent of contests after a second. Students will lose parking, driving and extracurricular activities for 30 days after a first positive test and 60 days following a second.

An inherited case of dropsy Commentary by Ward Degler A couple things my mother did that I have inherited: She talked to herself — all day, every day, a running plain talk monologue about what she was doing, what she had done and what she was going to do next. I do the same thing, although I claim it’s just healthy thinking aloud. My mother also suffered from what she called “dropsy.” She constantly dropped things — spoons, spatulas, frying pans, glasses of water, her purse. “Oops, my dropsy is acting up again!” she would mutter when something else hit the floor. I’m dropping things now, too, the same things my mother dropped, with the exception of a purse, of course. In my case, it’s because things are smaller than they used to be. “Those pill bottles used to be a whole lot bigger.” Ditto my car keys, ballpoint pens and paper clips. Only recently did I discover that dropsy is an actual thing. It’s what doctors called congestive heart failure before the dawn of the 20th century. It also was a casual reference to edema, bodily fluid retention that results in swelling. The word spilled out of a bigger word, ydropesie, which claimed roots in just about every European country, but which was spawned in Greece as having something to do with water. At some point doctors also referred to the malady as hudrops or hudropikos, which sounds a lot like
something you might find on the menu at a gyro shop. “Can I get my hudropikos without onions, please?” I’m not sure what treatments were available for dropsy back in the days of horsedrawn trams and gas lights, but Victorian literature lavishly refers to “potions and nostrums” for just about any ailment. And no woman of the age would be caught dead without her smelling salts. There is at least one reference to dropsy in Scripture. Luke 14:2 describes a man with dropsy whom the Lord cured on the Sabbath. The Pharisees got all unglued over that, of course, so there is no mention of his symptoms or how he got on afterward. Heart disease treatments are abundant and effective today, and I haven’t heard a doctor refer to dropsy in years. Since I suffer from a little AFib myself, I take that as a good thing. I’m not sure if there are any scriptural references about talking to oneself or not, only that folks back then seemed quick to throw a net over anyone who exhibited signs of lunacy, loosely defined as carrying on conversations with the moon. I keep my conversations private. Except when I drop something. Then I might announce to anyone nearby that my dropsy was acting up again.

Habitat for Humanity homes are where Liz Qua’s heart is By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Liz Qua’s devotion to Habitat for Humanity Boone County kept growing from a volunteer role to a part-time position with family services. “I loved every minute of that,” Qua cover story said. “I worked for a year-and-a-half with the applicants. I grew such a big heart for that. I love what it does.” Despite that, the Zionsville resident said she never had aspirations to be the executive director, which she became Jan. 1, replacing Steve Furste, also of Zionsville. However, her love of the Habitat model convinced her. No one filled Qua’s part-time role with family services, so she is filling that role, too. There are four paid staff members, including Qua, the only full-time employee. “I’m excited about it, but it’s a little overwhelming,” she said. “I’m kind of a jack-of-all trades. But we have such amazing volunteers. There are so many people that have a heart for it that they’ll pick up the slack. Whatever I can’t do, they’re willing to raise their hand and do it.” Sue Burks, associate executive director under Qua and volunteer coordinator, appreciates her passion. “Liz is an exceptional woman who brings a passion and energy to Habitat for Humanity Boone County,” Burks said. “She has a huge heart for helping our partner families and has taken on the executive director position with enthusiasm and grace. I have known Liz for a long time, and I know that she is dedicated, organized and caring. We are very lucky to have her leading our team.” Prior to being with family services, Qua had been a volunteer with the build team for a few years. “I started with the construction side, and then I realized I could really help the people going in the houses,” Qua said. “A lot of people come to us kind of broken down. I think that’s one of the huge rewards. When we do that house dedication and we see this person, and a lot of them are single moms, they just haven’t had a break in their life. They have to partner with us for 200 hours of sweat equity before they can close on the house. They have this beautiful new home where they’ve picked out cabinets, counter tops and flooring. There is usually not a dry eye at our house dedications.” Qua said the nonprofit is still looking for lots and applicants. “We have a lot of feelers out,” Qua said. “You’d think we’d have a line out our door of applicants, but we don’t. We really want more people to come in and realize who Habitat is and what we do for the community. “We primarily build in Lebanon, Whitestown and Thorntown. We’ve built in Advance once or twice, but that is farther out for our volunteers to go.” Fundraising for Habitat has been steady, but Qua

would like to see more corporations involved. “I think that’s a really good partnership, and that brings volunteers,” Qua said. “I’d love to build five houses a year, but right now we’re slated to build two or three this year. The three is based on us getting more lots. We don’t have a stack of lots to build on. But I think there is a need in this community to build five homes a year, if we could. To do that we would need partnerships with corporations. We’ve had corporate sponsors on builds before, and that would be awesome to continue to do that.” Qua said there is a faith build with any church in Boone County that wants to partner with Habitat, whether it’s with finances or volunteers. There is usually a women’s build in the fall. “We have 350 women come out and build a house in eight to 10 weeks,” Qua said. “It’s teams of women and fun is had by all. That’s a huge hit and very successful.” For more, visit habitatboonecounty.org.
• Personal: Qua, from Chicago, and husband, Doug, have three children, Melanie, 24, Daniel, 21 and Jonny, 19. All three are Zionsville Community High School graduates and have volunteered on builds. Doug has been a crew leader on the women’s build team. Qua belongs to Dining for Women, a giving club that supports global charity. • Experience: Qua previously worked part-time in circulation at the Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library. Previously, she worked in customer service for Grainger Industrial Supply and also had been a substitute teacher. She graduated from Southern Illinois with a degree in aviation management and worked as a turbo prop pilot for five years for SkyWest Airlines. • Favorite thing to do in Zionsville: “I really like Main Street. We love the community here. We enjoy eating downtown and walking at Lions Park with the dog (a golden retriever named Whitney). We love the activities here. That’s why I loved working at the library because I felt it was a gateway to Zionsville.”

No exceptions to absolutes?
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Commentary by Terry Anker Sometimes, we have spring in February and winter in March. We have rightly come to expect that morning follows the night just as warm weather ultimately replaces the cold – until the whole process starts anew. So when things don’t roll out in the order we might like, it causes a bit of disruption. We angst about when and why. We gather and take note of the celestial exception. The television weather personalities command center stage hoping to calm our expectations and remind us of “seasonal averages” and the eventual coming of the thaw. Yet, aren’t they stating the obvious? Is there any among us who has made the trip around the sun a few times who hasn’t come to know the basics of meteorology? Why do we require the reminder and reassurance? Certainly, life boasts its share of absolutes. Just as surely as we are born into this world, we will, one day hopefully very distant from now, leave it. The rule applies to us, each and every. Yet, many of these inevitabilities arrive not on demand but on average. Our expectation in hoping for the pattern to prove itself can bring with it some anxiety. Our experience is our guide, but we have evolved to rely upon our immediate senses as our first line of defense. When the calendar says March but the thermometer still reads January, why do we struggle to reconcile between our expectation in the immediate term and our confidence over the long? Can we rely upon our experience to accurately predict the future? Or, is each day an opportunity for exception? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

READER ’ S V I EW Muslims extend solidarity Editor, On behalf of the Muslim community in Indianapolis, represented by the mosques and Muslim organizations listed below, we would like to extend our solidarity with the Jewish community. We are deeply saddened and troubled to hear about the recent acts of hate, intolerance and vandalism against the Jewish people in America, including the recent bomb threat at the Jewish Community Center of Indianapolis. We are certain that such actions can cause people to feel afraid and concerned for their safety. It is very disheartening to hear about these senseless and hateful acts. Without our Jewish friends, we would lose, among other things, so much compassion and kindness found here in Indiana. But
please know that the Indianapolis Muslim community, a people of faith and moral conscience, is your ally. We will stand alongside you to uphold the values of justice and compassion. Our homes, our mosques and our hearts are open to you. Please let us know how we can help your community during this time of difficulty. We pray for the security of the JewishAmerican community who has undoubtedly been shaken by these events. May God fill your hearts with peace. Amen.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK A good holiday is one spent among people whose notions of time are vaguer than yours.
– J. B. Priestley
I’ve been writing for Current for 10 years, and though I’m not allowed to rerun past columns, I want to give you a humor taste of all the wondrous stories I’ve told. When I first began, my kids were all younger than 8 and I provided full-time daycare for a 2-year old nephew. Suffice it to say, I had plenty of material with which to work. Articles on the horrors of potty training, constipation woes, crashed minivans and the parenting mistakes of women I judged from afar dominated my diatribes. My favorites included a Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure-Alamo-style tour of our mini-van and how in a house full of preschoolers, play dates actually subtracted from the total number of kids I had to supervise (I literally proved how three plus two equaled one). Now my minions are all teenagers, which certainly comes with its own set of fun, but not near the comedy gold of little ones! Also early in my career, my husband Doo and I were still navigating the best way to manage parenting, marriage, his job and my feeling stuck at home all day with nothing but the monotony of motherhood for company. This resulted in a whole slew of stories about what essentially boiled down to the stupidity of men. Highlights from this era would be the raccoon-in-the-attic ode to “Coal Miner’s Daughter” and the retelling of an epic fight outside a Sheraton at the 2012 NCAA Final Four (he cheered for UK!). We’re older and wiser these days, so few marital moments meet the criteria for becoming a full-on column rant. My apologies. If only I could rehash! Peace out.

Hyperactivity is a good thing Commentary by Dick Wolfsie In order to reach a daily 10,000-step goal, my wife continually checks her Fitbit. The other day she was shaking humor her arms wildly back and forth while watching TV. “What are you doing?” I asked. “Very unfair … bad,” she said, which sounded just like a Trump tweet. “It only registers steps when your arms are moving. When I pushed the cart around Costco for an hour, I didn’t get any credit. So now I am trying to fool the Fitbit.” I was shocked. Mary Ellen is the most honest person in America. I am one of those lucky people who can eat what I want, lounge around the house all day and not gain an ounce. New research in the New England Journal of Medicine might explain why. Scientists recruited 10 overweight and 10 lean people and embedded sensors in their undergarments to record their activity. It wasn’t hard to get people to volunteer. Just the idea of sensors in their underwear sounded like fun. The study found that thin people spend a lot of time puttering around, although not necessarily doing
anything constructive. That’s me. My life has always been a moving experience. I eat standing up. I shake my leg up and down whenever I’m sitting. I check my email 20 times a day, going up and down the basement steps each time. I check the regular mailbox five times a day, even on Sunday. When I watch TV, I never lounge on the couch. That’s when I look for my glasses, my keys or my iPhone. I get up and check the fridge a dozen times, in case any new deli meats have magically appeared. I am the poster child for hyperactivity. Humming birds gather at my living room window for inspiration. My mother, my wife and my doctor have always told me that my antsy behavior would result in a shorter and less healthful life. When I was growing up, my mother used say: “If you don’t relax and calm down you won’t live as long.” That advice gave me the jitters.

Your GuiDe to feeling refreshed this spring March 21, 2017
8 tips to freshen up your home décor this spring Commentary by Peggy Whitaker Lucas
Liven up any room with new pillows or pillowcases. (Submitted photos)
With spring just around the corner, it’s time to freshen your home and transition to the beautiful warm season ahead. Try one or decorating all of these simple designer tips to easily refashion your space. Perk up your pillows Update a room with new throw pillows that complement the colors of the soon-to-be budding trees and flowers. Be sure to mix whimsical patterns, airy fabrics, a variety of textures and sizes for a truly designer look. Same goes for throw blankets. Swap out bedding Put away that thick, woven duvet cover filled with a heavy down insert and replace it with a lightweight quilt or coverlet. Add color with a bed scarf, pillows and bedside table accessories. Add a layer of warmth for those chilly nights in early spring with a lightweight comforter. Don’t forget your guestrooms. Look down Add a rug to your foyer and a coordinating hallway runner with a cheery color or one made of a light natural fiber. With warmer days ahead you’re sure to be spending more time outside, which means tracking dirt in, so don’t forget a fun springthemed doormat. Freshen your floral I always recommend clients use at least one arrangement of fresh floral in their foyer, kitchen and bedroom for an added layer of life and texture. Wow your windows Consider replacing window treatments to complement the season. Opt for soft colors or light and airy fabrics. If you’re not ready to invest in something completely new, try adding a decorative trim to existing panels for a fun touch of color and playful texture. Wash and dry Add fun hand towels to the powder room and tea towels to the kitchen that reflect an upcoming holiday like Easter. For an added spring sensation, invigorate your senses by filling your soap dispensers with scented hand soaps. Mimic one of the

most aromatic seasons of the year with cotton, citrus and jasmine. Lighten up Minimize the amount of accessories in a space to open up a room. Look for places to incorporate visually lightweight pieces like woven baskets, colored glass and pastel-hued ceramics. Be sure to use nature-inspired vase and bowl fillers. Artistic touches Treat yourself to a piece of new art. You’ll be amazed by the impact it will make in your home. Look for a piece that’s timeless to you, works with your style and incorporates peppy colors. I always remind clients to change the photos in their frames seasonally. This time of year use family photos taken outside or on vacation, those with bright colors, scenery or anything found in nature. Dressing your home with these interior and exterior ideas is sure to breathe new life into your retreat. Always choose pieces that you love, and remember, when it comes to accents, don’t be afraid to infuse seasonal colors.

Shaw Floors
“Growing Greener” is the theme for the 11th annual Z’Green Fest. Erin Czajkowski, chair of Z’Green Fest family fun and president of Friends of the Library, said the educational programs and activities will emphasize how to grow gardens to attract bees and other valuable pollinators as well as how to grow greener by encouraging community members to more fully explore nature and engage in sustainable living practices. Z’Green Fest, a free event for all ages, is set from 2 to 5 p.m. April 23 at the Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library, 250 N. 5th St. It will be outside in the library parking lot, weather permitting. A program for adults and children begins at 1:30 p.m. inside the library. The festival is set to celebrate Earth Day and Arbor Day. Earth Day is April 22. Arbor Day is traditionally the last Friday in April. The event is sponsored by the Friends of the Library and Friends of Zion Nature Center. There will be live music, face painting, crafts and fairy house building. “Instead of a cake walk, we’ll have a book walk to win a book,” Czajkowski said. “We have 18 exhibitors (educational booths) at this point, and one thing I’m excited about this year (is) we have seven new organizations that will be exhibiting what they do.” There will be a native plant giveaway, butterfly weed plants, for families. It is sponsored by Boone County Master

Taking hints from Mother Nature Commentary by Vicky Earley “I simply adore February in Indiana,” are words never said. “I so wish I could vacation in Indiana in March,” is a dream never decorating dreamt. Nope, Indiana in late winter can be gray and gloomy. Gray on gray is not a natural human state. Cool gray hues simply do not smile, nor do they engender warmth. It shouldn’t be a surprise that I receive a call almost weekly from a discouraged homeowner who has invested heavily in the trend of dusky slate paired with an ashen gray. Walls are gray, furnishings are gray and the mood is gray. The common lament is, “It just doesn’t feel right. Please make this a home!” Just like the first crocus that pierces the winter blues, shots of color are the perfect remedy to the cold character of gray. Don’t get me wrong, gray is an outstanding backdrop. When an entire space is a backdrop, nothing stands out. Nothing sings and nothing is special. Take that big gray sofa and pair it with vibrant yellow pillows and you have that crocus peeking through the frozen ground. Add a couple of chairs in a vibrant yellow patterned fabric and, just the way spring warms the earth, the room starts to come to life. Throw in some interesting textures and metals and the room is in full bloom! If in doubt, consider how nature plays with color, Pale blush paired with Cityscape by Sherwin Williams is a chic, sophisticated look

that takes its inspiration from driftwood that lands next to an exquisite conch shell. Pair Collingwood with a leaf green and you have the atmosphere of an old barn ready to fall into ruin with ivy clinging to the boards. When asked exactly what colors offer CPR to gray-on-gray, the answer is “any.” Any color, vibrant or pastel, is a candidate for pairing with gray! When faced with the “February in Indiana, I can’t wait for spring” decorating dilemma, try thinking like like Mother Nature and return color to your life with pillows, accessories, art and accent furnishings!

Organic plots now available By Heather Collins editorial@youarecurrent.com Organic garden plots are now available at the Carmel Clay Schools Plots to Plates Community Gardens on the gardens grounds of Carmel Middle School. Each of the 98 organic plots measure 4 feet by 15 feet and are available to all Carmel residents and CCS employees. Plots can be leased for $10 per year and are limited to one per mailing address. The Carmel Clay Schools Green Team recommends plot sharing. The goal of the Garden Team is to help lead the Carmel community on the path toward sustainable food systems. In 2011, the team collaborated with CCS to create the community gardens as part of their mission to promote sustainable practices. “This is the ultimate in local food,” said MaryEllen St. Angelo, core committee member of the CCS Plots to Plates Community Gardens. CCS Green Team members and master gardeners are available to advise and assist plot renters. The common areas are available to everyone, and a self-guided tour map is available. The property includes

Last year, College Wood Elementary first-grade students planted various seeds, including basil, peppers and tomatoes, that were later harvested for the Carmel High School cafeteria. Next year, food grown from the organic gardens will be used in the Carmel Middle School cafeteria. Requests must be submitted by May 1. Carmel Middle School is at 300 S. Guilford Rd. The community garden is behind the tennis courts. For more, visit ccsgreenteam.org.
Chickpea salad wrap By Sara Baldwin editorial@youarecurrent.com Get into the spirit of spring with this fresh and healthy recipe that caters to a vegan diet but can help incorrecipe porate fresh veggies and high protein into any lifestyle. Ingredients: 2 cups cooked chickpeas (one 9-ounce can), 2 stalks celery, 1 carrot, 1/4 of a medium red onion, 3 tablespoons vegan mayonaise (I use Follow Your Heart Soy-Free Vegenaise), 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp apple cider vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon sea salt (I use Pink Himalayan Sea Salt), Butter lettuce, Tortilla wrap (I use Ole Xtreme Wellness Spinach & Herbs Wrap) Instructions: Thoroughly rinse and drain the chickpeas. Put the chickpeas into a food processor. You can also use a blender on “chop” mode or a lower speed, if you don’t mind an uneven texture. Finely chop the celery and onion. Peel and chop the carrot. Add to blender or food processor. If you are using a food processor, add the vegenaise, mustard, lemon juice and apple

cider vinegar to the mixture and blend. If you are using a blender, pour the mixture out and stir in the rest of the ingredients by hand. Add the salt, adding more to taste if necessary. Lay out the tortilla and add the lettuce. Spread the chickpea salad on top, then tightly roll. Cut in the middle and serve. For a gluten-free option, use a glutenfree tortilla wrap or gluten-free bread. This salad is also yummy when eaten by itself or with crackers!

Boone Village expansion planned By Heather Lusk news@currentzionsville.com Boone Village might soon be growing. RSE Realty Inc. has submitted plans to develop a nearly growth 8,000-square-foot building at the northeast corner of Ford Road and Oak Street. It would be directly north of the Speedway gas station. Stan Evans, president of RSE Realty Inc., said he would like for construction to start this summer, depending on prospective tenants. No tenants have yet committed, but Evans is optimistic. “We’ve found that there really was plenty of demand for it,” he said. “The fact that we’ve started moving this forward with the planning process and have elevations to share with people, it’s definitely increased the level of interest beyond really what I expected it to be.” Boone Village is anchored by Marsh and Akard True Value Hardware. There is one rental space available on the property after Brunchies closed at the end of February. “That whole corner has maintained occupancy at 97 percent-plus,” Evans said.
Multiple tenants could occupy a new building proposed for Boone Village. (Submitted photo)
“Putting another building out there was our long-term strategy when we bought it.” Evans said the building could house anywhere from one to five tenants, but he expects to have three. “They’ll be consistent with what we have now, retail office folks,” he said of the Boone Village tenants. “We’ve got everything from shoes to physical therapy and insurance.”
The rendering shows a primarily brick building, which Evans estimates will cost $2 million. “It’s a cleaner, simpler look with a bit of a modern edge to it,” he said. RSE Realty Inc., based in Indianapolis, manages Boone Village and other properties throughout Indiana. The proposal was scheduled to be considered by the Plan Commission March 20.

White Kitchens – Anything but Boring By David Decker Bright, airy, & timeless, it’s no wonder why white remains the most popular kitchen cabinet color of choice. Here are 4 ways to add a bold statement to a neutral kitchen. • Dynamic Countertops Whether it’s a contrastingly dark color or a white stone with a dramatic vein, selecting an eye-catching countertop can add depth and dimension to the kitchen. • Intricate Backsplashes White cabinets allow for an endless number of backsplash designs. Unique shapes, patterns, & colors can be used to create a striking focal point. Want to keep the kitchen neutral? Consider using white dimensional tile and let the shadows do the talking. • Two-Toned Cabinetry Afraid of the space looking too stark & boring? Mix and match cabinet colors! Set the island apart with a soft gray, a vibrant blue, or a warm deep stain. Don’t have an island? Put some color on the base cabinets and keep the wall cabinets white. Oftentimes homeowners fear that two-toned
cabinetry is too trendy. When it is designed properly the timeless look can still be achieved. • Add a Little Bling Think of the small details like light fixtures and cabinet hardware as the cabinet’s jewelry – make them “pop.” Install crystal chandeliers above the island and oversized hardware in an accent metal finish or a contrasting dark color.

Clanton conducts ‘Man of La Mancha’ editorial@youarecurrent.com The Indianapolis Opera will present its first classic musical theater piece, “Man of La Mancha,” debuting John Clanton as conductor from March 24-26 at The opera Schrott Center for the Arts. “Man of La Mancha,” written by Dale Wasserman, takes place during the Spanish Inquisition when Cervantes is a prisoner awaiting trial. In this play-within-a-play, Cervantes casts his fellow cellmates as characters from his manuscript in an attempt to prove his merit. Clanton Together, they tell the story of Alonso Quijana, who believes he is the knight errant Don Quixote. Quixote and his companion set out on a journey of chivalry and transformation. “Before studying the show, I suspect I was like many people in thinking ‘Man of La Mancha’ equaled ‘The Impossible Dream,’” Clanton stated in a press release to Current. “It’s been enjoyable to learn that it is so much more than that. It’s full of great music and an uplifting story.”
Clanton has performed as the assistant conductor for the Washington National Opera and National Symphony Orchestra where he directed “La Traviata,” “Carmen,” “Eugene Onegin” and “Romeo and Juliet.” Clanton also has traveled and performed in all 50 states and in 13 countries. “I love everything about conducting, from the preparation and study to the rehearsals and performances,” he stated. “I especially enjoy collaborating with the players in the pit and singers on-stage to ensure everything comes together during the performance.” “Man of La Mancha” is a story set in two worlds – fantasy and reality. Clanton stated he feels different emotions while playing music for both worlds. The music played in the fantasy world projects “passion and inspiration,” whereas music from the real world emits “dissonance.” To drive these emotions, patrons who attend “Man of La Mancha” will hear brass, woodwinds, percussion, Spanish guitar and more under Clanton’s direction. “The podium is my ‘happy place’ where I can forget about the frustrations of everyday life and focus on conducting music,” he stated. Tickets start at $25 and can be purchased at indyopera.org or by calling the Box Office at 317-283-3531.

Indiana naturalist: What are wasps good for? Balancing nature. Submitted article by Patricia Happel Cornwell I will never forget those uncomfortable moments that followed my child’s first questions about “the birds and the bees,” but at least I knew the answers. gardens Recently, when a 10-year-old friend asked me, “What are wasps good for?” I had no ready reply. I fell back to the naturalist’s default credo: everything in nature has a purpose, a job to do. That didn’t satisfy either of us. I thought of the arborist who was viciously stung on the head by yellowjackets in our field last summer. I thought of the unidentified black wasps that nest behind the shutters on our porch and buzz me when I’m trying to meditate or watch birds. So I sat down to do my homework. What I wanted to know was: What services do wasps perform in the ecosystem, besides stinging people and frightening children? What do they contribute to the balance of nature? When I saw “pollen wasps” in Kenn Kaufmann’s “Field Guide to Insects of North America,” I thought, aha! To my surprise, pollen wasps (Pseudomasaris species) – found only in the western U.S. and Canada – do not pollinate plants. I read that the bald-faced hornet (Dolichovespula maculata) kills many flies and even other wasps, and this clued me to the fact that predation is the key to the usefulness of many wasp species, at least from a human perspective. According to “Pollinators of Native Plants” ground-nesting yellowjacket adults (Vespula spp.) are predators of beetles, flies, true bugs (Hemiptera spp.) and other wasps.

Paper wasps (Polistes spp.) prey on caterpillars and beetle larvae and have been used as a biological control for tobacco hornworms (Manduca sexta) in agricultural areas. Other wasps, such as the 290 species of the Pompiliidae family, feed on spiders. The big news is that a new species of tiny wasp has been discovered that parasitizes the emerald ash borer (Agrilys planipennis) that has killed millions of native ash trees. Spathius

galinae (so newly found it has no common name) is native to the Russian Far East and South Korea. It can smell whether a tree has been infected with the borer and can feel the larvae’s vibrations under the bark. It drills through the bark with its ovipositor and lays eggs on the borer larvae. When the wasp larvae hatch, they feed on, thereby killing, the borer larvae. This new wasp is tiny, the size of a gnat, and it does not – cannot – sting. Tests by the University of Delaware and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service have determined that this host-specific wasp can help save beleaguered ash trees. The USDA estimates that 8 billion commercial timber trees in danger from emerald ash borer are worth $280 billion, and that it would cost another $25 billion if cities were to replace the ash trees they have already lost to the borer. Approved by the USDA in 2015 as a biological control, S. galinae is now being reared by the tens of thousands at the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service lab in Michigan. The wasps will be sent to 24 northeastern states for release into affected forests. It will always be disconcerting to find a wasp in my wine glass, but I must concede that many species “earn their keep” by controlling populations of flies and other pests. I can now tell my young friend that wasps do indeed serve a purpose in the balance of nature and that without them, we humans would be pretty miserable.

Melk Abbey’s reusable coffin Commentary by Don Knebel An historic abbey in Melk, Austria is one of the most impressive buildings in the nation. It also is known for an travel invention that was never used. In 1089 A.D, Leopold II, the Margrave of Austria, donated a castle overlooking the Danube River to the Benedictine monks for use as an abbey. The Melk Abbey, named after the nearby town, became a well-known center of learning during the Middle Ages, producing important manuscripts in its scriptorium. In the 18th century, an imposing new abbey was built on the site to replace the original building that had been damaged by fire. The new abbey included a twin-tower Baroque church adorned inside with frescoes and gold leaf. In 1925, the abbey sold its two-volume Gutenberg Bible and used the proceeds to help finance a massive restoration, which was completed in 1996. Today, Melk Abbey houses a prestigious co-educational school and is open to the public. Its famous library includes a priceless collection of approximately 2,000 me-
dieval manuscripts. The abbey also houses an assortment of religious artifacts, including a palm-size Bible and a large money chest with an intricate locking mechanism. Its most unusual item is a wooden coffin with a trap door that could be opened by a lever when the coffin was placed inside the grave opening. The reusable coffin was invented to accommodate a 1784 decree by Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II. He ordered that bodies must be interred without clothes in linen bags to save wood and hasten decomposition. Under the decree, coffins could be used only for transporting the body to the cemetery. Joseph’s decree was so unpopular that it was never implemented. False but persistent claims that the body of Mozart, who died in Vienna in 1791, was placed in a reusable coffin are reflected in the movie “Amadeus.”
