Oh. My. Lord. I cannot believe I had to go back to the dentist! You may recall from an earlier article that I have an irrational fear of dentistry grounded in childhood trauma and a general lack of narcotics and was trying desperately to postpone an appointment to have two cavities filled. Inspired by the bravery of my 10-year-old son, [...]
Here’s a chance to start summer off on the right note or foot – or both! – before summer actually begins. The Center for the Performing Arts and its artistic director, Michael Feinstein, are at it again. An evening of elegance and history making is on the near horizon, and we’re excited to be able to support it. You may [...]
And now, hold on to your hats because it’s time for … Dentists In The News! That might be the only time in history those four words have appeared together, in that order. Dentists tend not to make a lot of news. As a rule, they seem to be a fairly sedate group of professionals, at least compared to legislators, [...]
Why is it so often those who give the most require the least, even as those who rarely offer anything are abundant with needs? At a buddy’s birthday party, I caught up with a longtime friend that I’d not seen for ages. He’s the kind of human that falls into the selfless camp. He served us all in the first [...]
It is our position that farmers markets serve as a valuable community resource by providing an outlet for Indiana farmers and growers to earn a living by giving residents easy access to locally produced fresh food. The organic food industry has taken the nation by storm, sending a strong message by consumers that they want healthier food choices. Some of [...]
Alright mommies, our day approach-eth! And because I’ve finally wised up to the fact that my family, though attractive and talented, are not mind readers, I’ve again prepared a “To-Do” list to help them orchestrate the perfect Mother’s Day. No more disappointment when they forget it’s my day, no more bad-mouthing my husband because he didn’t clean the dishes and [...]
Motorists entering Noblesville will have a more appealing view. Beginning this week, crews will be planting several varieties of decorative grass and bushes along both sides of a portion of Allisonville Road. City officials said the plantings were specially chosen because of the fact that they are hardier and more tolerant to the salt and brine used in the winter. [...]
Recently I found myself at the table when a particularly vociferous disagreement erupted between two thinking and engaged folks, each with their own particularly impassioned views on life and the body politic. As personal insults were exchanged, it reminded me of the only physical beating ever to take place on the floor of the U.S. Senate. In May of 1856, a [...]
It is our position that negative political campaign advertising is a counterproductive use of time, money and the attention of the voting public. As Election Day nears, the airwaves are filled with a cacophony of harsh-voiced accusations. Television images project defaced candidate caricatures as a flood of postcards fill mailboxes with negative messages. All this finger pointing just seems to [...]
The talk around the future of Noblesville Schools has recently begun its second round, but the discussion is not limited to just the number of high schools. With the opening of Promise Road Elementary School in August, Supt. Libbie Conner believes the district is set at the primary grade level for several years, but the secondary level is of concern.
