    If you havent already discovered the gem of a place called Murphys PubHouse, nestled in the strip mall on the northeast corner of 116th Street and Olio Road, youre in for a surprise! First off, lets just say NO SMOKING. No need to worry about your hair or clothes reeking of smoke when you get home! You cant help but notice the friendly owners, Ryan & Craig Stonebraker, whose philosophy is get to know your customers, embrace the community, and treat your employees like family. They possess a boyish enthusiasm about everything from the food they serve to the customers who visit them. Youll meet these owners once, and theyll remember you the next time you stop in guaranteed or your next meal is on the house. Okay, we exaggerated that a tad!

    Weve noticed the customers here are really varied. On one side of this PubHouse youll find the family-friendly restaurant, and on the other side youll find the bar. Its at the bar where we noticed the eclectic clientele. At one table, you might find Lacrosse moms discussing the nights game. At another table, you might find a group of neighbors discussing politics. At the bar, youll find people who came in with others or by themselves. The one thing youll appreciate is being able to hang out at a place where you can hear yourself talk because theres no blaring music. And you might like a place that doesnt make you feel like youre in the middle of a pick-up zone. To you singles out there dont let that keep you awaylol! This place is homey, fun, and comfortable a neighborhood hangout serving up great food and spirits.

    On the night we visited, we were bellied up to the bar chatting away with the ever-so-funny bartender Dennis Bowling. If youve ever met Dennis, youre sure to remember him and his signature deep hearty laugh. Hes an outgoing character with a sarcastic flare always ready to engage in conversation. We asked him to fix us up with some specialties, and he served some beautiful martinis that were unforgettable! The first was his Salted Caramel Martini drizzled with chocolate and caramel sauces on the inside and outside of the glass rimmed with salt. Drinking this martini, OMG nothing like it! Your top lip tastes the

    salt and your bottom one tastes the caramel now give me a drink! DELICIOUSNESS!! Oh wait! Were we not supposed to have dessert first?! Oopsie well how about the next martini, The Drunk Shrimp. Its an appetizer in a glass! The seasoned salted rim welcomes you to a martini that somewhat tastes like a Bloody Mary. The kicker with this martini is the jumbo horseradish-stuffed shrimp skewered along side a jalapeo-stuffed green olive. Wow! This drink really should be classified as an appetizer YUM!

    While enjoying our cocktails, we couldnt help but notice the older gentleman sitting next to us in the big red IU jacket. He was watching the #1 Hoosiers on one of the bars many TV screens. As we struck up a conversation with Frank, we learned that his son had just passed away the day prior. Frank didnt want to be home alone. Murphys seemed to be the best place for him that night. He spoke to us about his son and seemed to appreciate being able to share a few stories with strangers. On the other side of us was a girl who had just graduated from Ball State in December. She had just learned that day that she had gotten a job, and she wanted to celebrate!

    We also met Gary Politan a 25-year patron of the local Murphys restaurants, enjoying a spinach salad with a beautiful piece of grilled salmon laden with bacon bits and pecans. We wanted to dive right into that salad,

  • 10 geist C O M M U N I T Y N E W S L E T T E R | M A R C H 2 0 1 3

    but unfortunately, Gary wasnt offering us even a bite. Fortunately, the luck of the Irish was with us and the owner brought us some food of our own: Char Grilled North Atlantic Salmon, 4 ounces of mmm mmm good with sauted teriyaki veggies. This large appetizer could easily be a no-guilt dinner! Weve never seen a salmon teriyaki appetizer anywhere. It was tender and aky, and we would de nitely get it again. We also tried two of Murphys favorites their Portabella Panini Melt and their Ham and Cheese Pretzel Panini. We had eaten the Portabella Panini here before, and we had already recommended it to friends. Its a grilled wheat panini with seasoned and grilled Portabella

    mushrooms, tomato, red onion, and provolone cheese served with a teriyaki Parmesan sauce. The Ham and Cheese Pretzel PaniniWOW, we could have that every day!!

    As if the great food, great atmosphere, and great drinks werent enough to get you to try this new establishment, Murphys has a three-day St. Patricks Day event coming to you March 15-17. Would you expect any less from a place called Murphys?!? There will be a huge tent party, beer trucks galore, kid-friendly by day, and adult party by night. Nashville recording artist and Indianas own Corey Cox will be performing, too! For more details, check out Murphys PubHouse on Facebook or go to www.murphyspubhouse.com.

    A quick little note about us. Weve been friends for twelve years. Our families have traveled together and spent holidays together. We know were lucky that we have husbands who support our social calendars (of course, they really dont have much of a choice). We love the Geist area, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you! If you know of a place that you think should be featured in atGeist, contact us at [email protected]. Consider joining us the night we cover your suggestion! See you next month, and remember to follow us if you want to know where its @!!!

    Lets Hear It for the Girls!The long-established boys basketball program at LN is accustomed to a high level of attention and hype. Now, LN has another basketball team to cheer about: The girls! The Lady Wildcats won the division title this season (7-0 in conference play) as well as the Marion County Championship. It is the first time in school history that both those titles were celebrated in the same season.

    Although this is his first year as the head coach of the Lady Wildcats, Christopher Giffin has been with the LN boys basketball program with Coach Jack Keefer for the last nine years. Giffin grew up on the west side of town and graduated from Ben Davis High School. Before coming to LN, Giffin was a student-manager at Indiana University under Coach Bobby Knight. Giffin then followed Knight to Texas Tech where he served on the coaching staff as a graduate assistant. It was an awesome experience to learn under such an amazing coach, said Giffin of Knight.

    I have always had a great passion and love for the game itself and, specifically, teaching it and watching and helping young men and women develop. I am competitive and thus enjoy the yearly, monthly, weekly, and daily challenges that putting teams together requires, says Giffin.

    Giffins coaching staff shares his passion for the game. His coaches are a diverse group with experiences playing and coaching at the high school, collegiate, and semi-professional levels.

    Giffin began his student teaching at Lawrence North in 2002. He instructs Life Skills in the Special Education Department dealing with students who have moderate to severe disabilities. This only adds to his strength of character.

    The Lady Wildcats have a strong future as well. Only one of two seniors is able to play. Hannah Farley is out with an injury leaving Mikale Rogers as the lone senior on the court. Farley, in spite of her injuries preventing her to play on the court, is contributing in the locker room, at team meetings, and has been as committed as anyone to the team, commented Giffin. Mikale Rogers has been an incredible leader her senior year, leading by mouth and example, says Giffin.

    This leaves a strong support group for Giffin to work with in the coming years. These girls are driven, focused, and apparently rather bright. The team accumulated GPA is 3.5. This statistic makes Giffin most proud. The entire team is made of leaders both on the court and in the classroom, says Giffin.

    When asked of the future, Giffins plans for his team are to establish and maintain one of if not THE premier high school girls basketball programs in the state of Indiana that has as its foundation strong academics, strong individual and team character, and winning. And winning is what they are doing, on and off the court.

    How often do you ask questions when visiting your primary care doctor or medical specialist about the important aspect of how they record and communicate your medical records between of ces, hospitals and insurance providers or whats new in technology that bene ts you as a patient? These are questions most patients never think to ask, but are really an important element in your personal healthcare.

    CommunicationElectronic medical record systems (EMRs) are now part of the 21st century medical of ce process allowing quick communication and documentation concerning patient diagnosis of problem(s), direct prescription pharmacy delivery of needed medications, and important documentation reports to insurance providers as well. Records are easy to update, from the front of ce clear through to the patient examination room.

    Dr. Jeffery Schoonover (Founder of Indiana Vein Specialists), is pleased to be leading the way to the goal of achieving a near total paperless EMR of ce operation.

    We are excited with the incredible advancements in medical technology, Dr. Schoonover said, Not only with patient communication systems through the EMR, but with the non-surgical laser treatment advancements in varicose vein disease and related disorders, he said.

    TechnologyEndovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is an exciting example of how the advancement of new technology bene ts our patients. Using the newest generation VenaCure EVLT treatment system generally takes less than one hour. This cutting edge system allows better targeting of varicose vein segments with signi cantly reduced bruising. Patients can usually resume normal activities immediately with minimal discomfort. The success rate of the VenaCure EVLT procedure is also measurably better than the alternatives of surgical ligation or stripping.

    Another important bene t of the technology we have at our of ce is that patients are able to see,

    in real time, how their own veins are working as we enter the diagnostic ultrasound process together. And once the problem is identi ed, patients can indeed watch the medical procedure on screen as we address their vein problem. When patients have this kind of understanding, it reduces so much of the anxiety related to vein treatment, he added.

    Indiana Vein Specialists understands that you have a choice for vein care in Central Indiana. They are locally owned and committed to the area. They are also invested in bringing each patient the best and most up-to-date vein care available. A sampling of their services would include: Endovenous Laser Treatment, Cosmetic Sclerotherapy, Therapeutic Sclerotherapy, Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy, Microphlebectomy, Surface Laser Spider Vein Treatment, and Diagnostic Ultrasound Vein Mapping.

    Dr. Jeffery Schoonover and his associates are shining examples of a medical practice that delivers A+ care and communication and advanced technology to patients who seek relief from painful vein disease.

    No matter how long youve lived in your home, its always fun to shake things up a little bit and what better time to think about giving one, two, or even three rooms in your home a brand new makeover! A fresh new look will definitely have a positive impact on every single person who lives in your home. Just think about the enjoyment you would derive by sharing something new for your friends, family and guests to admire! Here are just a few ideas to help you get started on your makeover!

    Color Your World: If youre living in an all-white or beige world, then nothing will spark your rooms makeover faster than color! Perhaps its just one simple accent wall painted a dramatic and exciting color. Maybe a new piece of art will find a new home over your fireplace mantle adding color and spice to your family room. Replacing a worn area rug thats seen better days with a new textured multi-colored area rug might fit the bill perfectly. Nothing adds more instantaneous drama and pizzazz to you rooms entire dcor than color!

    rearrange: Although new furniture definitely gives any home an instant facelift, often times its not something new you crave but perhaps simply a new furniture arrangement plan. Have you considered

    transferring pieces from one room to another? Have you tried angling your larger furniture pieces? Have you considered adding a new accent table or two? Maybe reupholstering that chair or sofa will do the trick. Frequently, small changes can make the biggest impact.

    light: Unfortunately, improper and inadequate room lighting is very common. Few things can rekindle our spirits on a gray, rainy, or snowy day like a homes interior bathed in warm light. In fact, good artificial lighting is known to have such a positive effect on ones moods that some consider it preventive medicine. When developing a lighting plan, you first need to take stock of what types of activities you enjoy in each room youre considering making over. Then call in a professional decorator to help determine the best lighting plan to accommodate your activities.

    So, if a few rooms in your home are crying for a facelift, theres no better time than NOW to begin the process. You, your family, and your home will definitely benefit from a brand new look!

    Over the last 3 years, I have noticed a trend in my clients desire to train their core. How many times have you encountered the word core as it relates to your body or exercises you should be doing for your body? Many times, right? So much so you may feel a little silly asking someone to explain what the heck it is and where can it be found? So let me help clarifyor not?!

    Guess what? As a personal trainer, a patient of various cycles of physical therapy, and a seeker of knowledge, I have con rmed that there isnt agreement among those who research the core, those who treat the core (therapists), and those who train the core (personal trainers).

    Which muscles comprise the core?From what I have gathered in my research (including Wikipedia), many experts agree that major component muscles include the abs, pelvic oor, back, and diaphragm muscles (diagram below). However, the core also recruits many more muscles including the glutes, hamstrings, and shoulders.

    Why do I need to know?The most important role of the core is creating stiffness (static stability) by stopping, holding, and controlling motion in the trunk AND then systematically reacting to the force (dynamic movement) created by moving arms and legs.

    The core is designed to be a spring to store and recover elastic energy, says Stuart McGill, BPE, MEd, PhD, professor of spine biomechanics at the University of Waterloo in Canada, and author of Low Back Disorders: Evidence-based Prevention and Rehabilitation (Human Kinetics, 2007).

    Static StrengthThe goal of making the core stiff is to protect the organs and the spinal cord in its most neutral posture neither exed

    nor arched. Stiffened, strong cores provide the foundation of stability, balance, and energy transfer for the entire body. Think about standing tall to walk, bracing (tightening) the core pillar muscles to perform a plank exercise (coming in Core- Part 2), or bending down. A great example is a base cheerleader becoming stiff to serve as the foundation of a stunt.

    Dynamic StrengthSo a strong core is one which remains stiff when called upon to balance and transfer energy from one part of the body to another in a balanced and systematic sequence. Understand that trunk rotation or movement is often included in transferring energy/force. I cant think of an athlete in motion that doesnt need to be able to transfer energy from his/her arms and legs to kick, throw, plant, tackle, strike, pli, swing, etc., in a sequenced pattern. Everyday housework and yard work are included, by the way. So if there is a weak link during systematic movement, problems may occur (thats a whole other topic).

    So how to strengthen your core? To be continued.

    Core?

    One result of last Novembers election is new leadership for the Lawrence City Council. The Geist Community Newsletter met recently with newly-elected Council President Tom Shevlot, 50, and second-term Council Vice President Sherron Freeman, 57, to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the citys 46,000 residents and its government leaders. The following are their responses to the most pressing issues.

    Revenue and BudgetingShevlot (R) at-Large Councillor: We need stability from a fiscal perspective

    in local government. Local government is funded primarily with property taxes, and the past couple of years have been a challenge. Our priority is to get a handle on projecting revenues accurately. Our primary responsibility is budgetary: getting expenses under control and revenue forecasting. You have to adjust the way you run your organization.

    Freeman (D) District 3: Because of property-tax caps, we now have only a set (reduced) amount of money coming into the city. Another drawback is the more than 36,000 property-assessment appeals filed. That money is tied up until those appeals run their course. To me, they should have just left property

    taxes alone. The funds would have been there for us to do other things such as a library. We cant jack up fees because we want people and businesses to remain in Lawrence.

    Shevlot: If we continue thinking were going to get incremental revenue increases from property taxes, thats unlikely because the last couple years weve gotten less. I have ideas about new revenue sources, but the council is limited in what it can do about them. Ultimately, its the administration that has to execute them. I believe they are moving that way. I cant discuss it yet, but there are two new funding options that would not require more taxes.

    Were in conversation about them with the administration.

    Public SafetyShevlot: Public safety is more than 70 percent of the citys expenses. Bloomington has only 32,000 residents and more police officers than Lawrence. The same is true for Richmond and Columbus. The challenge is that funding has to be appropriated across all the citys 300 employees. We have to do a better job of creating alternate sources of revenue. We cant do local government as usual anymore because we now have experience with how cities are being funded with reduced property-tax revenue, and its not meeting expenses. There comes a time when you cant cut any more without getting into public safety, so my hope is we can find new funding sources that are sustainable.

    Freeman: We want our police officers to have decent patrol cars, but funding for that sort of thing is a challenge with decreasing revenue streams from the property-tax caps. Still, I think the city is doing very well.

    Economic DevelopmentFreeman: We need more businesses in Lawrence that are here to stay not the kind that pick up and go after 30 days. Also, the commercial growth at the former Ft. Benjamin Harrison needs to continue. We need locally-owned small businesses to get in there and get stabilized. The more businesses that come to Lawrence, the less taxes will be necessary.

    Both Freeman and Shevlot agree that local governance is less about ideology and party affiliation. The public doesnt care about a D or an R they just want to know what youre going to do positive for the city. What are you going to do to push us forward, said Freeman. Shevlot said he is optimistic, but also pragmatic about Lawrences future. Freeman agreed, adding that she and the council

    president are, for the most part, on the same page. So much is thrown at us, and the way we complement each other seems to be working.

    When the Hay family decided to update the kitchen in their Geist home, they knew they would have to address the kitchen cabinets.

    They were kind of a mess, says Sue Hay. I wasnt sure exactly whatbut, I knew something had to be done with the cabinets!

    The Hays, who have lived throughout the Midwest and East Coast, enjoy their spacious kitchen which overlooks a

    channel of Geist lakes. They recently added new cambria countertops but, still, the plain wood cabinets with out-of-date hardware needed to change.

    The Hays collaborated with Lisa (Designs by Lisa)and decided to paint the kitchen cabinets and stain the island a whole new color. Painting your kitchen cabinets is a great way to update your kitchen, says Lisa. "It is an effective way to give your kitchen a new look, and it is done at a fraction of the cost of replacing them with brand new cabinets. Lisa says she custom

    mixes the paint to match your kitchen, often focusing on one accent such as the cambria countertops in the case of the Hay family kitchen.

    The Hays thought they would lighten and brighten the upper cabinets with old world white paint and a warm gold glaze and do the island in a contrasting espresso nish. Topped off with new brushed nickel hardware, this kitchen would take on a new look in no time. The process starts with the removal of all cabinet doors and drawers and hardware. They are painted off site with

    a sprayer for an overall smooth nish.

    Then, the frame of the kitchen cabinetry, the nooks, shelves, and the island are all painted on site. The process takes a few days, then the newly-painted cabinet doors are returned to the kitchen where Lisa glazes the doors and drawers by hand on site. Then the new hardware goes on, and this kitchen looks brand new with lighter, brighter cabinets and a darker, warmer island! In just a few days time, a kitchen can get a whole new look without tearing out the existing cabinets. Always check on painting your kitchen before deciding what you have needs to go!

    The Hay family is happy with the new look in their kitchen, and they are ready for spring and summer entertaining!

    Barb Austin leads a platoon of Lawrence Township Foundation volunteers to "Light Their Future"| J. Andy Murphy

    Mark your calendars for March 15!

    If you live in Lawrence Township, you have heard the name of one Barb Austin. This dynamic woman is known as a tireless event volunteer professional who goes above and beyond the midnight hours needed to make any event successful. The Light Their Future Celebration, bene ting the Lawrence Township School Foundation (LTSF), is one event you dont want to miss. Twenty Lawrence Township schools bene t from this special fund raiser. Austin explains that many new and fun elements have been created to generate an exciting and educational theme for this years event.

    We wanted to refresh our annual event with a new theme focused on CELEBRATION, said Austin. This years theme offers new elements of fun that are, indeed, a bit different from past events. We are encouraging our supporters to come dressed in anything that takes them back to the time that brought them to the future!

    The Foundations mission is to connect philanthropy and education to provide the resources needed for all children in Lawrence Township schools to excel. The possibilities for our schools are endless, stated Cori Korn, executive director of the Lawrence Township School Foundation. Its such an honor to support such a strong, vibrant school district, Korn added with obvious pride.

    Serving as the Honorary Chair is Belzer Middle School Principal Troy Knoderer who has served the district in various roles for 20 years.

    Every school in the Lawrence District will create 2 table centerpieces that individually showcase their school. It should be very educational for our guests to come and learn about their wonderful school district, Knoderer said.

    Lets get behind this vital Lawrence Township School Foundation Celebration to make this years event the most successful ever! Its one way to support the schools and the community you live in. Its certainly a fun way to get involved with a true celebration! For more information, call 317-423-8300 (Foundation of ce) or go to the LTSF website www.msdltf.org.

    Barb Austin, a self-proclaimed professional volunteer, has been working on this year's "Light Their Future Celebration" to be held on March 15 in Castleton.
