Charlie Ferguson sees only positives from the Indiana Grown initiative.The initiative, developed by the Indiana State Department of Agriculture, makes it easier
for Indiana residents to identify, find and purchase products grown, produced and processed in Indiana.
Ferguson, who makes salsa from his Noblesville farm, said he sees a lot of benefits for Crazy Charlie’s Salsa products. Crazy Charlie’s uses Indiana-grown tomatoes and fresh cilantro, garlic and lime juice.
“Our C&G Salsa company has been around 14 years,” Ferguson said. “The Indiana Grown [program] lets the people know the company was started in Indiana. We’ve won 26 inter-national awards. We’re an Indiana company that a lot of people don’t know. It opens some doors up.”
Ferguson said his products have been sold at major retailers in Indiana, Illinois and Ohio, including Fresh Thyme and The Fresh Market, as well as being featured on Food Network.
“The State of Indiana has many hidden gems in that the companies have top quality products, and the state of Indiana is getting us recognition as well as media attention by bringing it to light these top-quality companies,” Ferguson said. “This gives us even more of an opportunity to for people to know about our company and mission for heaving a healthy all-natural produce that is gluten free.”
David King serves as program manager for Indiana Grown and Buy Local.“Indiana Grown is growing and expanding, and the enthusiasm is greater than our
expectations,” King said. “We’re growing three to five members a day.” As of Oct. 6, the program had 259 members.
King said he hopes the encouragement to buy local will benefit the local economy. “We need to buy more products from ourselves,” he said.
The new initiative, led by Lt. Gov. Sue Ellspermann, ISDA and a 12-member Indiana Grown Commission, will connect businesses that use or sell agricultural products such as restau-rants, grocers, wholesalers, processors and farmers markets with Indiana-based producers of meat, milk, cheese, fruit, vegetables, wine, beer and forest products.
In September, Marsh Supermarkets officially became a major in-store partner with Indi-ana Grown.
King said Indiana residents spend $16 billion per year buying food, yet more than 90 per-cent is sourced outside of Indiana.
“We’re hoping with Indiana Grown and the visibility and making consumers aware of this, we can certainly sell more Indiana products to Indiana folks,” Ferguson said.

Current in Noblesville’s September Teacher of the Month winner was McKenzie Leck-rone, a third grade teacher at Noble Crossing
Elementary. Her student, Emma Rashid, nominated her by writing a 100-word
essay. Their reward? A classroom pizza party and $50 gift card from Market District, the Teacher of the Month sponsor.
Here is Emma’s winning essay:Mrs. Leckrone is the best teacher ever!
She is so, so funny. She told my class a story about when she was little, she once had a real funeral for her imaginary friend Bob, who she smashed behind a door when playing hide and seek with her friends. It was really funny. She is also a great teacher because she makes me post my goals on my locker to work towards, and every time I accomplish my goal, we get to bring it home, and she helps me set a new, harder one. She has made me be a better reader too because every week we write letters to her, and then she writes me back and suggests new books

Noblesville is getting its new high school, but probably not in the expected form.
Legacy Christian High School will launch in the fall of 2016, making for an easy transition of their current eighth grad-
ers into a familiar setting. Aug. 3, 2016, marks the first day of school.
The private school system currently offers education to preschool, elementary and middle school-age students at its campus at 470 Lakeview Drive in the heart of Noblesville.
Administrators say the implementation of the high school will make progress through 2020, when it will see its first graduating class of Grizzlies.
Legacy Christian was founded out of White River Christian Church in 1999.
“We got to the point where we needed to separate out for size and space, and we spent a year over at the Noble Naz Church. Then we were able to acquire this building four years ago,” said Chuck Williamson, chair of the Legacy School Board.
Legacy’s building was formerly a Noblesville Schools building and was home to Forest Hill Elementary. Forest Hill closed in 2011 to build a larger elementary school, Promise Road El-ementary. Noblesville Schools sold the building to the city, and Legacy Christian purchased the building from the city.
“The parents and board have been talking about a high school on and off for four or five years,” Williamson said. “We’ve all had kids who graduate out in eighth grade, and we just haven’t had the space or maybe the momen-tum to start [a high school]. We put a commit-tee together last year. The committee gave us a recommendation on how we could start, and we decided to go forward with it.”
Williamson said staff, parents and students alike are excited.
“I’m excited, and for 14 years I’ve been waiting on this,” said Head of School Lana Thompson. “It’s great to see the school grow, and having our own property was a big piece of that.”
Thompson said the new high school stu-dents will use the unused classrooms of the school.
Thompson said because the school is both private and Christian, the curriculum is both traditional and unique.
“We are a state-accredited school with ISTEP scores and a passing rate that has us as the 19th school in the state, public and private. We have a very high standard, and we keep our curriculum moving pretty quickly,” she said.” In some cases it’s a grade level ahead. For instance when our kids graduate from eighth grade, they’ve had three years of Spanish, and they’ve done math all the way through Algebra 1. We use a lot of secular cur-riculum, but … all of our kids from preschool all the way up have Bible classes and Bible cur-riculum. We really work on servant leadership and teaching the kids how to defend their faith. That’s especially big in the middle school and will be in the high school, too.”
Williamson said the board has made efforts to limit class sizes.
“As a board, we’ve kind of made a com-mitment to say that 18 students is when we would split a class,” he said. “That’s what our target has been, K through eighth [grade]. Some of the public schools have 28 to 35 kids [per class]. That’s not what we’re about.”
Legacy Christian has held steady with en-rollment at approximately 180 students k-8.
All new students to the school go through an application process, which Williamson said was similar to schools like Guerin Catholic High School and Heritage Christian School.
“There’s no geographic [limitation], so there’s an application process,” he said. “We really want to get the word out to the com-munity that there’s another alternative here from a Christian standpoint.”
An informational open house will be held at 6:30 p.m. Nov. 17 at the school. For more, visit legacychristianonline.org.
Jensen Huser, School Board Chair Chuck Williamson, Isabella Schuster, Sean Benning, Timothy Horn, Sarah Monroe and Head of School Lana Thompson announce the opening of Legacy Christian High School for fall 2016.
Congratulations to Noblesville Parks and Recreation and Economic Development for recently opening the city’s first pocket park, Riverwalk Depot. It’s situated on what was an un-park-like plot adjacent to Bolden’s Dry Cleaners and Eighth Street near the railroad tracks. The site was an eyesore, but now it is a true focal point, what with its flow-erbeds, seating area and pathways. It also serves as the trailhead to the White River Greenway and Riverwalk. As the city devel-ops westward, utilizing every available parcel is smart management, and it should lead to economic development. This project is a case in point.
• • •Maybe the Trump Show is wearing thin?
It could be too early to tell, but we’re watch-ing New Hampshire, which since forever has been some kind of barometer (along with Iowa and South Carolina) as to the true political climate for Republican candidates. According to Fox News, this month’s NBC/Wall Street Journal Marist poll shows Carly Fiorina making a 10-point leap: from 6 per-cent last month to 16 percent this month. “She still trails frontrunner Donald Trump, but her Granite State surge shows a potential path for Fiorina who has been mostly surf-ing the national zeitgeist,” Fox reported. We like what she has shown thus far, but we consider it just an appetizer for what we expect to be a battle royale between Trump and Fiorina as the months pass. Trump, by the way, lost seven points in the most recent polling. If the Republican Party pushes any of the “insiders” over these two, it might as well fold the tent and call it a day.

Commentary by Terry Anker
In his latest book, the 2008 chairman of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke, now claims that more business executives should have gone to jail in the aftermath of the early days of what is now being called the Great Recession. He didn’t call for it at the time, nor did he mention the role of erstwhile government officials responsible to prosecute such things.
While one can only assume that Bernanke and his ilk are motivated to justify the un-precedented and extreme moves they took as “essential” to prevent a 1930-style depres-sion, he does make a salient point regard-less of his own culpability. If governments, agencies and mega-corporations are too big to fail, are there individuals who are too important to be held accountable?
Ours is a system of laws and rules administered in a most evenhanded and thoughtful way. But like barnacles on a ship in the water, we have accumulated all man-
ner of exceptions, special advocacy groups, and loopholes allowing for a perversion of the simple concept. If misdeeds occurred, either from neglect or intentional action, they should be fully explored. But we must be emphatic in applying the same standard to government bureaucrats as corporate ones. One might imagine that a failure on the part of the Justice Department to pros-ecute any individuals is related to a percep-tion of collusion between powerbrokers in Washington and those in New York. Big financial firms are far more familiar with Pennsylvania Avenue than Main Street. Is the same true of the government officials we trust to enforce the rules? And can we rely on a system where the risk is only borne by one of the benefitting parties?
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
I’m sad. For the last several years, my husband and I have been in a fantasy football
league together. My team never finished higher than third, but I learned a ton about football
and enjoyed putting the hurt on Doo’s pa-thetic team.
Due to a lack of interest this year, how-ever, we decided to disband the Wilson X League, may she rest in peace. I didn’t think it would bother me; I mean, seriously, I’ve got enough on my plate right now without wor-rying about getting my lineup set in time. But to my surprise, I actually miss the darn thing. I feel like a small, shoddy raft adrift on the vast NFL ocean come Sunday (and Monday night and Thursday night and the occasional Saturday). I no longer have interest in what my boy Brees is up to or whether my go-to running back is off the IR. It doesn’t really matter if the 49ers are on a bye or if my de-fense is going up against the Patriots. Who cares that my bench outscored my starters by 40 points? Not me, because I don’t have a bench or an IR list or even a defense to lead to a Brady slaughter.
So what to do? Sure, I’ll still follow the Colts, but they are but one team in a color-ful and fascinating football nation of 32. They don’t have a Marshawn or a DeSean or even a player with a cool name like Jericho Crotchery.
I have commandeered by husband’s at-tention somewhat by suggesting that we continue our quest to watch every movie on the American Film Institute’s Top 100 Films of All Time. But honestly, with the exception of maybe Bogart and the very dreamy Paul Newman in “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” (not on the list) which I’d accidentally confused with “Some Like It Hot” (number 22 on the list), I’d rather be watching Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers and, though it pains me to say this, Tom Brady. So come hell or high water, next year I’m back. This mom needs a fantasy! Peace out.

Pointe for the Cure Masquerade Soiree set for Oct. 30 at IMA
Form left, Jackson Schene, Mark Pecar and Noah Motter. (Submit-ted photo)
It’s only fitting the Indiana Ballet Conservatory holds a fund-raising event to benefit pediatric cancer research.
“There is a connection here because of the children,” said Wilmara Manuel, IBC in-terim executive director. “What we do here
is educate children and educate dancers. One of our former board members did work in pe-diatric cancer and thought it would be a good match. It evolved into the student dance in honor of a child currently fighting cancer. Our mission is not just to educate a dancer, but the whole student and to really make them aware of the world around them and how
[they can] contribute. They have a gift to dance, and we have a great staff who is creating this piece. So they are using their gifts and talent to bring entertainment to raise awareness for that one night to help that child smile and forget about what they are fighting.”
The third annual Pointe to the Cure Masquerade Soiree will be held Oct. 30 at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. It will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a VIP reception. The Masquerade Soiree and a cocktail and silent auction session begins at 6 p.m. The IBC performance begins at 8 p.m. in the Toby Theatre. There will be a special appearance by singer Josh Kaufman, winner of NBC’s “The Voice” during the cocktail session. Kaufman will hold a meet-and-greet during the VIP reception.
Alyona Yakovleva-Randall, a Geist resident who is originally from Russia, is the founding artistic director of the Carmel-
based Indiana Ballet Conservatory.“We want to give back to the community,” Yakovleva-Randall
said.The performance is “Pulse: Dancing to the Beat of Our Own
Drummer,” which was created by Yakovleva-Randall. It was
first performed in 2012.“We’ve done selections from it since but
this will be the full production,” Yakovleva-Randall said. “We combine percussionists and contemporary dance. Why did I create this production? How could I not create this production? I come into the studio, and there is so much talent around me, my students and amazing faculty member, Sergey Serglev, who is an award-winning choreographer.
“Then I come home, and here is my amazing husband [Daryl Randall] who is drumming. All this talent around me made me think about something unique and very special. I came up with story about a little boy who follows his dream and becomes a musician and a little girl following her dream and becomes a ballerina. The message to the audience is never give up, and always follow your dream.”
About 30 dancers, ranging in ages from 11 to 17, will perform in the show. Many young cancer patients will be invited.
“We have a child match program, so each student meets a child who is fighting cancer, and they dance in honor of the child,” Manuel said. “At the end of the evening they each walk across with a picture and they say, ‘Tonight I dance for,’ and they say the child’s name.”
Manuel said they raised $45,000 for Peyton Manning Chil-dren’s Hospital, Riley Hospital for Children at IU Health and Team Joey, part of Heroes Foundation. The same three chari-ties will benefit from the fundraiser this year.
The cost is $75 for the evening ($100 includes VIP reception). For tickets, visit indianaballetconservatory.org.

It could make you sad. It could make you cry. It could make you angry. It could make
you uncomfortable. “Remem-brances: A Ballet in the Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust” will
certainly make you think.“You know how you feel when you sit there
in your car for a minute after you’ve seen a serious movie, and you ask yourself, ‘What did I just see? What am I feeling?’” said choreog-rapher Brian Honigbaum, who created the bal-let in 2001. “That’s what we are trying to get.”
Dance Kaleidoscope will present the Indiana premier of Honigbaum’s historical ballet Oct. 16-18 at Clowes Hall.
Honoring the 11 million Jews and others who died in the Holocaust, Honigbaum stays true to the historical and chronological context of the event in various sections representing the atrocities of the Holocaust as the audience follows a family of three through it all.
“It’s a moment when the audience can take a deep breath,” said Mackenzie Kirk, a Carmel freshman at Brebeuf Jesuit High School per-forming in the ballet. “They can pause for a few minutes.”

Commentary by Julia Bonnett, Development Officer for
the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre
This year marks the eighth year that Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre has participated in
Holliday Park’s Hauntless Halloween. This guided, candlelit tour through the
park is perfect for those in search of a festive, kid-friendly Halloween activity. Members of Jr. Civic’s premier performing troupe ACT ONE as well as adult actors from the theatre contrib-ute their talents to this educational night hike through the park.
Civic performers of all ages participate in the program by performing the roles of some not-so-scary creatures found at Holliday Park, such as an owl, beaver, bat, crayfish and moth. Additionally, Jr. Civic participants and their families line the trails and guide the park’s visitors as they meet the natives, roast marshmallows by the bonfire and make vari-ous fall-themed crafts.
Hauntless Halloween not only provides ad-ditional performance opportunities for Civic’s avocational actors, but also strengthens Civ-ic’s century-long history of serving the com-munity through outreach. This program pro-

The Indiana Wind Symphony will open its 18th season with an October Joyride.
The name of the concert, set for 7:30 p.m. Oct. 17 at the Palla-dium, is derived from two pieces
the IWS will play, called “October” by contem-porary American composer Eric Whitacre and “Joyride” by 28-year-old American composer Michael Markowski
“This will be the third piece of Markowski that we have played, and I think he has a bright future ahead of him,” IWS conductor Charles Conrad said.
Kelleen Strutz, a classical and jazz pianist and vocalist, will be the IWS’s special guest. She will perform George Gershwin’s “Rhap-sody in Blue,” which Conrad described as one of everyone’s favorites.
The concert also will feature several clas-sical band works by significant composers, Conrad said.
One piece is “Pageant” by the late Vincent Persichetti, who is celebrating the 100th of the anniversary of his birth this year.
Indiana Wind Symphony opens season with October Joyride
MUsIC
“Persichetti was one of several composers in the 1950s who started writing serious piec-es for concert bands,” Conrad said. “That had not been in vogue for 20 and 30 years before that. The concert band, at the turn of the 20th century, was considered artistically in the same sphere as orchestras, ballet companies and operas. It had fallen badly in the 1930s and ’40s, to the point it had become more of historical relic playing patriotic concerts and more for entertainment than artistic merit. Persichetti was one of those who started the band back up the food chain in terms of artistic merit.”
The show will close with Alfred Reed’s “Ar-menian Dances.” Reed died 10 years ago, so Conrad said this is in memory of the 10th an-niversary of his passing.
For more, visit thecenterfortheperformin-garts.org. Student tickets, through college age, cost just $5.
All six of the 2015-16 IWS shows will be at The Palladium. The next IWS show will be Hol-lywood Highlights on Nov. 7.

Joe Drozda is the author of “The Tailgater’s Handbook” and is considered as the “Father of American Tailgating.” His website is tailgatershandbook.com. He is a resident of Hamilton County.
Cooking and heating foodBy Joe Drozda and Bob Bley
In the 1600s, the Caribbean Arawak tribe was cooking meat on sticks laid over a fire. They called this process “barbacòa” and this was the forerunner of the American Bar-B-Q. Two hundred years later, BBQ came to the southeastern United States, where pigs were cooked by pit-roasting before eating. The charcoal briquette was patented in 1897 by Ellsworth Zwoyer. After WWII, in the post-war boom in suburban lifestyle of the ’40s, open outdoor grills become a backyard fixture. The iconic Weber grill was born in 1952 by George Stephen. In the ’60s, in a bid to get customers to buy more natural gas, employees of the Arkansas Louisiana Gas Company redesigned a charcoal grill to run on bottled propane. These resulting broilers have led us to today’s tailgating grills.
If you look in a 2015 tailgating lot, you’ll see mostly gas grills using those little dark green 16 oz. propane cylinders. This season, we have two adjacent tailgate parties next to ours using identical Coleman Road Trip Grills. Al-though we have a newer version, the Coleman NXT300, we see more and more of these and less charcoal.
A most popular item for a tailgate party is crispy buffalo wings. We experimented in our own kitchen and have found the perfect crispy recipe.
Crispy Oven Baked Buffalo WingsIngredients: (4 Servings)• 2.5 lbs. chicken wings• I Cup Frank’s Redhot Buffalo Wings Sauce• 2 cups flour• Salt and pepperPreparation: Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Wash wings and clip off their tips with poultry
shears (or knife). Cut wings at the joint into two parts each. Put wings on paper towels to dry. In a gallon size re-sealable plastic bag, put in two cups of all-purpose flour and a table-spoon of kosher salt and teaspoon of black pepper. Place wings in the flour bag and coat them with the mixture. Remove the wings with tongs, shaking off excess flour. Place wings on a sheet pan rack with the pan below. Place pan into the oven and bake 35 minutes. Remove wings and place them into a bowl of the buf-falo wing sauce to coat them slightly. Replace the wings onto the rack and cook them five or ten minutes more until they crisp slightly.
Remove the wings and let them cool. Then place them in the refrigerator overnight in a zip bag. On game day, re-sauce and heat the wings on your grill in a disposable aluminum pan. Serve with celery and blue cheese or ranch dressing.
Crispy oven baked buffalo wings are a classic for any tailgate. (Submitted photo)

Wicked pie perfect for HalloweenCommentary by Ceci Martinez
Welcome autumn with it intense fall colors and the beautiful pumpkins! Wicked pumpkin pie is our favorite Halloween treat in our fam-ily! This yummy pie is a breeze to make and it is so wicked that it won’t sit for too long on your kitchen table!!
Note: Did you know that the word “pump-kin” comes from the Greek “pepon”, which means “large melon?” The French changed it to “pompon.” The British converted it to “pumpion,” which eventually became “pump-kin” for the American colonists. While the origins of the word might have traveled conti-nents, the pumpkin is native to North America.
Wicked Pumpkin PieIngredients: 3/4 cup milk, 3 large eggs, 2
tablespoon unsalted melted butter, 1 cup brown sugar, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons ginger, 1/4 teaspoon cloves, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 1/2 cup canned plain pumpkin puree, corn meal, 1 1/3 cup heavy cream, cold, 2 tablespoons confectioner sugar, 1 tablespoon brandy (optional).
Directions: In a blender, combine the first nine ingredients on high speed. Add canned pumpkin and blend on medium speed. In the meantime prepare glass pie pan. Rub pan pie
with butter. Shake in dry corn meal; swirl to contact all butter. Turn pie pan upside down and tap, so excess cornmeal falls out. Pour
pumpkin mix into prepared pie pan. Bake at 350F for 50 minutes or until
knife comes out clean. Let it cool on a wire rack. For whipped cream, beat cream at medium speed to soft peaks, gradually add con-
fectioner sugar then brandy. Beat to stiff peaks. Accompany
each wedge of pie with a dollop of whipped cream.

Halloween is the prime time for spooky stories, but the Ballet Theatre of Indiana is taking a whole new turn with its Halloween
performance. And it happens to be based off a true story.
BTI will present “Macabre, a Night of Edgar Allen Poe Ballets” on Oct. 29 and 30. The show will be the season opener and focuses partly on Poe’s life and partly on his stories.
“We’ve never done a Halloween production,” said Audrey Robson, BTI’s director of public relations. “We definitely thought that using Edgar Allen Poe was very appropriate for the Halloween season.”
There will be tables for seating, and guests are able to purchase food and drinks during intermission. Robson said the stage is quite close to the tables and describes the show as very interactive.
“It’s definitely something that is unique to Indy,” Robson said. “It’s appearing as a ballet, and it masters up with the Halloween theme, so it’s a different way to experience Hallow-een. We’ve never done something quite like this before.”
The show takes place at 7:30 p.m. both nights and lasts about an hour and a half including intermission. Although alcohol is served, those under 21 are still welcome.
For children and families needing an early start to their Halloween celebrations, the Fishers Boo Bash returns to the Nickel Plate
District Amphitheater from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 23.
The event, in its third year, offers safe trick or treating for children plus games, live music and a collection of fall and Halloween activities.
“We pair up with up to 60 businesses or organizations in the community,” Fishers marketing and public relations manager Casey Cawthon said. “Each one will host a safe trick or treat stop, and all those stops include candy or games or an activity for the kids to do something a little fun, and while they’re there, their parents can learn more about that business or organization.”
Fishers city staff will also have booths set up to connect with community members and the Fishers Parks and Recreation tent
is where contestants can register for the event’s costume contest.
Registration for the costume contest will be capped at 50 entrants in each group — ages 0 to 2, 3 to 5, 6 to 10 and 11 to 12. Each age group will have four winners in categories of prettiest, scariest, most creative and best movie character.
“We also have a family category this year. That’s new,” Cawthon said. “We noticed there were a lot of families dressing up together, so we thought it would be fun to add a category for them to enter.”
Boo Bash attendees can take advantage of complimentary hot chocolate and Pat’s Philly Pretzels while supplies last, and the parks and recreation tent will have goodie bags avail-able, also on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Entering just its third year, the Boo Bash has already become one of Fishers’ larger gatherings.
“Last year we had over 6,000 people at this event,” Cawthon said. “It’s become one of our more popular events.”

from it because of unique movements, but I would say it does have some mature concepts in it,” Robson said.
Some of the dances within the show in-clude “The Masque of the Red Death” by Direc-tor Stirling Matheson and “Annabelle Lee” by Emma Rose Beigel, a company dancer. The other dances will be performed by the new ballet master and resident choreographer Cole Companion. All choreography is original.

For 31 years, a black-caped rider mounted on a charging horse has terrified the pas-sengers on the hayrides that each October
roll through the 1800s town and apple orchard of Conner Prairie. And
the result is always the same: 30,000 chil-dren and adults annually lose their minds when the Headless Horseman cruises by their tractor-pulled hay wagon.
Based on the classic Washington Irvin tale “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” the Headless Horseman at Conner Prairie has become as classic as the lighting of Monu-ment Circle’s “world’s largest Christmas tree” in downtown Indianapolis. It’s just not Halloween without it.
The Headless Horseman isn’t the only activity that turns Conner Prairie into Con-ner Scarie.
Other family activities include “The Leg-end of Sleepy Hollow” marionette show, ghostly vortexes, fortune telling, scary-o-ke and more.
New this year, guests can help make history in the craft area by folding 6,000
origami bats, a feat large enough to get Conner Prairie into the Guinness Book of World Records.

When it comes to our health, nobody likes to hear the words “high risk.” This holds
true for pregnant women who are naturally con-
cerned not only about their own health, but the well-being of their babies. While there are a number of reasons pregnancies may be con-sidered high risk, it’s important to remember that most high-risk pregnancies result in a good outcome for both mother and baby.
When is a pregnancy high risk?Generally, any circumstance or condition
outside of what’s expected during a normal pregnancy can constitute high-risk. Pregnant women with underlying medical conditions, such as a heart problem, high blood pressure or diabetes, are often categorized as high-risk. Pregnancy in women ages 35 and older is also considered high risk due to the increased risk for Down Syndrome and other genetic abnormalities in babies born to mothers of advanced age.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Many people do not realize that breast can-
cer can spread to the eye. In fact, the most common type
of ocular tumor in women comes from breast cancer. I have seen many breast cancer survi-vors who tell me they did not know this.
Sadly, often a patient will not experience any visual symptoms with an ocular tumor.
In fact, when I was doing my externships with a retinal specialist, I saw a patient who was referred to us for a suspicious looking ocular tumor. She was in her late 50s and was visiting her daughter. Her daughter want-

Knowing high-risk pregnancy
Breast cancer and the eye
What does high-risk pregnancy mean for mother and baby?
As part of a thorough prenatal care plan, an OB-GYN will identify whether a pregnancy is high-risk and requires further evaluation by a maternal fetal medicine specialist – a physi-cian specifically trained to manage high-risk pregnancies. While most women experience anxiety – and even fear – upon learning there is a potential complication, visiting a mater-nal fetal medicine specialist helps determine whether there is a serious concern and what to do next.
I frequently tell patients that knowledge is power. Once we know what we’re dealing with, we can discuss options and how best to manage the situation.

ed her mom’s eyes checked because she had not had them checked “in years.”
This tumor turned out to be metastatic from breast cancer. The patient did not even know she had breast cancer at all.
If you, or anyone you know has or has had breast cancer, please schedule your compre-hensive eye examination with your eye doctor.
Early intervention is the best hope for a successful treatment.

For Noblesville resident Angie Hipsher, her commitment with the Get Your Rear in Gear 5K race/walk goes far deeper than being the
event director.Her husband Andy
lost his nearly three-year battle with colon cancer at age 35 on Oct. 5, 2012.
The race/walk is the only one in Indiana to help raise funds for colon cancer awareness.
The event, backed by the Colon Cancer Co-alition, will be held at Noblesville’s Dillon Park at 9 a.m. Oct. 17. Hipsher is expecting approxi-mately 400 participants.
“We find it’s a community event, and the same families that are fighting colon cancer or lost someone to colon cancer are who the ma-jority of the people are,” Hipsher said. “October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, so we’re kind of in the shadows. Colon cancer is never something that gets talked about very much.”
Hipsher said her husband walked the 5K for two years when it was held in Carmel after he learned he had colon cancer.
“My family will be walking and running,” she said.

sixth-grader, will be running, and daughter Kaelyn, 8, an Our Lady of Grace second-grader, will be walking.
The family team name is Lucky 7 because Andy was born 7-7-1977.
“Our team wears shirts [that say], ‘Walking in memory of Andy Hipsher,’” Hipsher said.
The cost for adults is $30 and $20 for youth (12 and under). The event includes refresh-ments, T-shirts and medals for age group win-ners. Register by 5 p.m. Oct. 13. For more, visit coloncancercoalition.org.

More than 2,000 IU Health employees vol-unteered their time all over the state on Sept. 18 as part of the health organization’s annual
Day of Service.In Noblesville, ap-
proximately 50, repre-senting IU Health North and IU Health Saxony, gave their time to improve features of Ham-ilton County Parks and Recreation’s newest park, Bray Family Homestead, at the border of Noblesville and Westfield.
The collaboration between IU Health and the parks department resulted in a 22-plot community garden, where two raised, wheel-chair-accessible garden beds were built from scratch, along with seating along the perim-eter of the garden.
On a different side of the park, small groups worked together as a team to build a new footpath through a previously un-walkable area and to build safety railing along a creek bridge.
“We’re a partner with the community, and
we want to do more than just meet people’s healthcare needs,” said Joy Davis, manager of Customer Experience and Community Engage-ment at IU Health North and IU Health Saxony. “We go through a process every three years where we identify what the health needs in the county are. So, one of them we’ve been focusing on for the past three years is obesity prevention. We feel like rejuvenating the parks and adding new assets to the parks really helps.”

The Noblesville Pet Wellness Clinic will have a definite local feel.
The practice opened Sept. 10 at 15887 Cumber-land Rd., Suite 105.
“We’re all local, so we like to find a good, local spot where we can give affordable pet care for members of the community,” said Betsy Smart, practice manager. “It’s close to all of our hearts as far as location goes.”
Dr. Mark L. Park, Fishers, serves as the full-time veterinarian, and Dr. Mark Bailey fills in as a veterinarian when Park is off.
Dr. Michael Graves, Fishers, is the owner of the practice and will fill in as well.
Graves has other practices in the area.Smart has worked for Graves for 10 years,
working at Bridgeview Animal Hospital in Fish-ers prior to her Noblesville position.
Park’s wife, Terri, has been an elementary school counselor at Noblesville Schools for more than 15 years.
Park is a 1986 graduate of Purdue Univer-sity’s College of Veterinary Medicine. He has been a practicing veterinarian in the Nobles-ville, Fishers and Anderson area for more than 25 years.

Graves graduated from Purdue in 1982 and founded Bridgeview in 2005.
“It’s a full service small animal practice, so anything from wellness packages, vaccina-tions to sick pet exams,” Smart said. “Surger-ies such as spay, neuters, dentals and some emergency surgeries as well.”
The clinic will primarily serve dogs and cats.“Every once in awhile we’ll get a bunny rab-
bit nail trimming, but as far as practicing, it will be dogs and cats,” Smart said.

Blueprint for Improvement: Screened-in porch addition
Background Info: This stunning 1989 home is in the Walnut Creek Woods subdivision in Carmel. The homeowners have lived here for 2 1/2 years and were definitely ready for a perfect porch addition!
The goal was to achieve an inviting and engaging room for the family to enjoy!
1. The porch was added off of the exist-ing dining room, creating a natural transition of spaces.
2. Functional screen windows were installed to allow fresh air and sun-shine into the space.
3. A wood-burning stone fireplace and TV were installed to create a prime focal point in the room.
4. A custom beverage counter was de-signed just outside the white French doors for functional entertaining.
5. The existing brick wall and custom white columns add contrast to the dark wood ceiling and flooring.
6. The addition was furnished with rus-tic, industrial selections.

BefOre prOBLeMs:
When the homeowners moved, their priority was to have a screened porch, and this home didn’t have one. The family needed a place to enjoy their wooded view comfortably in mul-tiple seasons.

Commentary by Don Knebel
Istanbul’s Dolmabahçe Palace is one of the most spectacular buildings of its kind in the
world. Its grandeur hastened the collapse of the empire that built it.
By the middle of the 19th century, the Otto-man Empire was beginning to experience the economic stresses that led to its becoming known as the “Sick Man of Europe.” To con-vince his subjects and European monarchs things were not as bad as they appeared, in 1843 Sultan Abdülmecid II began building an opulent palace on a 61-acre site on the Euro-pean bank of the Bosporus. The Western-style Dolmabahçe Palace was named for a garden that once occupied the site. When completed in 1856, the palace included three sections, one for administration, one for receiving visi-tors and one a harem for the wives and con-cubines of the Sultan. The 500,000 square feet of useable space included 285 rooms, 43 toi-lets and six Turkish baths, one incorporating Egyptian alabaster. Fourteen tons of gold and six tons of silver adorned the palace, which
also showcased Baccarat crystal and Venetian glass. The ceremonial hall featured a 4.5-ton chandelier, the largest in Europe.
The Dolmabahçe Palace cost the equivalent of 35 tons of gold, 25 percent of the Ottoman Empire’s annual revenue. The Sultan financed this extravagance and the expense of his si-multaneous involvement in the Crimean War with foreign loans, contributing to the eventual collapse of his empire. When Atatürk founded the Turkish Republic in 1923, he used the Dol-mabahçe Palace as his summer residence.
The Dolmabahçe Palace and its magnificent riverside grounds are available for guided tours. Visitors ascend a staircase with crystal balusters to view its many splendors, includ-ing a bedroom in the harem where Atatürk died on Nov. 10, 1938. The bedroom clock is forever stopped at 9:05 a.m., the minute of Atatürk’s death.
