On Tuesday, leaders from the cities of Westfield, Carmel, Hamilton County and the State of Indiana officially opened the last section of the Monon Trail in Westfield. The trail now connects downtown Indianapolis to Sheridan.
“This is a great accomplishment for all of the Monon Trail communities,” said Westfield Mayor Andy Cook. “Creating amenities that encourage people to get out, stay active and enjoy our cities is what we want. The Monon Trail brings enormous economic and cultural benefits to all of the communities it touches.”
The Monon Trail was established in 1996 paving the way for the former railroad route to become a premiere greenway in Central Indiana. With the completion of this 2.5 mile project, the Monon Trail now runs more than 24 miles.

10/12/2018 INDIANAPOLIS — As a light sprinkling rain fell on Heritage Christian School’s senior night, the Heritage Christian Eagles soared late over the Sheridan Blackhawks, winning by a score of 27-14.
In a seven-and-a-half minute opening drive that included a fourth down conversion on their own side of the field and a third-and-12 conversion for another first down, Sheridan quarterback Drake Delph found the end zone on a 12-yard scramble that required tremendous amounts of improvisation. With a successful extra point from Cameron Hovey, the score was 7-0 with 4:34 left in the first quarter.
After neither offense were productive on their next drives, Heritage Christian marched down the field with Colton Brown charging into the end zone with a 38-yard touchdown run. A missed extra point meant that the score was 7-6 in favor of Sheridan.
After an unnecessary roughness penalty on the kickoff return brought Sheridan 15 yards closer to scoring, the Blackhawks made quick work moving down the field with Delph putting the exclamation point on the drive with an 11 yard quarterback keeper for the touchdown. Hovey made the extra point to make the score 14-6 in the second quarter.

10/18/2018 To the Editor:
Last year, the U.S. House of Representatives passed legislation known as Concealed Carry Reciprocity. If this bill becomes law, the Federal government would override our state’s standards on who can carry hidden, loaded handguns in public and force us to recognize the standards of every other state – even the states that have lower standards than Indiana, or not standards at all.
Concealed Carry Reciprocity should never become law. It encroaches on states’ rights, and would force Indiana to allow people with dangerous histories and many people with no permit whatsoever to carry hidden, loaded guns in our communities. It’s a law that would put our police, first responders, and children in harm’s way.

10/18/2018 Dear Editor,
Yes, this is a political message. So why pretend? Which is what Washington does a lot of, and is known for—pretending this, or pretending that!
We find it strange that our Republican Congresswoman, Susan Brooks, can get so little done when Republicans control the White House, both Houses of Congress, and also trying to control the U.S. Supreme Court.
To be fair, that may not be all her fault. But it sounds like Rep. Brooks is a victim of her own party! She can't get anything done because—well, they won't let her!

10/17/2018 Dear Editor,
I’m writing to encourage my fellow parents and all residents of Noblesville to become familiar with Miller YES. This is our local movement to support the upcoming school referendum.
There are many solid and convincing facts available from Noblesville Schools about the referendum. I won’t share those here. Instead, I’ll share my personal story to support the facts.

10/18/2018 Soon we will be given the opportunity to once again exercise our right to vote. This is especially meaningful to me because I only recently gained the ability to vote according to my conscience. Having been part of a strict fundamentalist community, I believed that to vote differently than my husband was a sin.
The sect that I followed taught an uncompromising role of female submission. For voting, the teaching went like this:
1. I trusted my husband to be the head of the household, therefore I should trust him to determine who should lead our country.
2. When women gained the right to vote, they cut the male vote in half, and a submissive wife is honored to restore that half vote to her husband.
3. Men are more knowledgeable about affairs of the world, and women should be respectful of that knowledge.

10/17/2018 From the Greatest Generation to Baby Boomers, Generation X to Millennials, teenagers in every era have had challenges growing up.
In today’s digital world, high school students are being tested in unique and demanding ways. The Washington Post confirms that 73 percent of all American teenagers own their own smartphone and, on average, spend almost nine hours a day texting, chatting, gaming, blogging, streaming and visiting with friends online.
Although conclusive research showing a direct correlation between the mental health of teenagers and smartphone usage won’t be complete for years, it isn’t a great confidence builder for a student to discover online that everyone else seems to have more friends.

Warner Sallman is an American born artist who was born in the late 19th century. He devoted much of his life to creating religious images that focused on Jesus Christ. Each of Sallman’s pieces is meant to provide a depth of religious value and bring a sense hope and comfort to the viewer. His most famous work is “The Head of Christ”, which he completed in 1941. The timing of this piece could not have been better as the world was in the early stages of World War II, and the U.S. would soon be entering the fight. This work would be printed in pocket size photos and handed out to the soldiers being shipped off to war to provide comfort and inspiration to many. There is a good chance that you have seen this picture as it has been printed hundreds of millions of times.
If you would like to see “The Head of Christ” and many more of Warner Sallman's original works then you can visit us at the Scheierman Gallery, located on Anderson University’s campus in Anderson, Indiana. We are open Tuesdays and Fridays from 1-4 p.m. or you can make an appointment to visit. We are closed during university breaks, which can be found on the Anderson University Academic Calendar, with exception to summer break when you can visit by appointment only. We look forward to seeing you!
