“There are so many talented bands in Columbus,” she says. “But we started by looking at some that play a different kind of music than we focused on last year, and we started inviting them.”

Attendees will see one familiar face with the return of the Saturday Giant, a one-man band that Faure says was a favorite last year. Frontman Phil Cogley uses technology to loop music, producing a unique solo act.

“I had several requests to invite him back,” she says.

All performances start at 7 p.m in the Upper Arlington Public Library’s Friends Theater, 2800 Tremont Rd. The performances are free and open to the community.

Live music is no stranger at the Upper Arlington Public Library. More than 30 years ago, the library hosted a popular music series focused on classical music with a touch of rock and pop.

But in 2009, the library suffered substantial budget cuts, forcing it to close on Friday evenings – which was when the shows were held. The series was canceled.

But after last year’s successful reintroduction, Community Engagement Specialist Jennifer Faure says, the music series is back in full swing.

On Jan. 8, the library will begin a five-part music series that highlights local talent.

“We really enjoyed it, and we had great feedback from everybody who attended, so we knew that we wanted to bring the series back again,” says Faure.

Although it was a cold and icy winter, Faure says, the library’s Friends Theater always filled up.

It wasn’t easy picking only five bands this year, she says.

News & Information from the Village of Marble Cliff

MARBLE CLIFF

Let There Be Light

Village undertakes major overhaul of streetlight system

By Bill Johannes, Marble Cliff Administrative Assistant Streetlights have been a mainstay of communities from the days of lamplighters attending to gas streetlights.

Though Marble Cliff has never had gas lights during its 113-year existence, its original electric streetlight system, once owned by American Electric Power, dates to the mid-20th Century. The system has had few updates over the years and many repairs. Wiring and fixtures have deteriorated, some beyond repair, causing street and sidewalk safety concerns.

Hence, the Village has begun a comprehensive update of its electric streetlight system to take advantage of today’s technological advances in streetlighting efficiency and effectiveness.

With no financial assessment to property owners, the Village plans to completely replace its system of 79 street-level streetlights, bury all wires underground in conduit and install two centralized light controllers. Overhead lights in the Village that are the property of AEP will not be changed. The project’s completion is estimated for 2015-2016.

Phase 1 of the streetlight project in the Village’s Fifth Avenue business district and on Fernwood Avenue is complete.

It included installation of electrical wire conduit and 16 new streetlights with LED fixtures. The improvements take advantage of new, energy-efficient LED technologies that use less energy, reducing energy costs. Wires in conduit connected to new central light controllers, rather than individual light sensors, should reduce repair and maintenance costs and improve the system’s reliability.

LED bulbs use less energy and can be directed more accurately toward sidewalks and streets, diminishing the annoyance of ambient light shining into homes. In pre-installation tests, residents told Village officials that the LED bulbs, though brighter, shed a “softer” white light than the old “pink” mercuryvapor bulbs.

The new streetlights are a “Village-like” design and are painted black in keeping with the Village’s effort to establish

a consistent look and feel for its visible public service equipment, including new black-and-white street name signs and newly painted fire hydrants. Completion of Phase 1 this past fall provides the Village with the opportunity to evaluate the changes made to the system before undertaking the more comprehensive Phase 2 in the Village.

“We feel it is important to have a dependable, Village-wide streetlight system to maintain a safe environment for our property owners and those who walk and cycle our Village,” said Mayor Kent Studebaker. “Plus, we should experience lower maintenance and energy costs.

Everyone should benefit.”

Tip-Dan Electric workers install the new street lights.

Professional pianist excels in the art of Filipino stick fighting

F

or Dean Marcellana, the martial arts are more about philosophy than the fight.

For 21 years, Marcellana – also a professional pianist – has practiced the art of Filipino stick fighting, also known as Eskrima and Arnis.

This knowledge has allowed him to teach various selfdefense classes in his home city of Grandview Heights and walk with a sense of confidence, knowing he can defend himself if necessary.

“My main goal is to promote peace – for yourself, for your family,” he says. “Peace isn’t the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with conflict. You make situations work for you, whether you’re in the best part of town or the worst. If you’re in a potential altercation with someone, and if you have to go, you go hard. If you can walk away, then you walk away.”

January/February 2015 • www.trivillagemagazine.com

Rhythmic motions and the use of weapons act as a signature for Marcellana’s combat specialty.

“Eskrima is the most logical form of dirty street fighting,” he says. “It’s all about one-upping your opponent and making sure that, if someone comes at you, they’re not going to come back at you again.”

This sentiment is passed on through the lessons he teaches. Instead of going for a knockout blow to an aggressor’s head, he says, target a foundation area, such as the foot or a knee.

“I truly want to teach my family to grow and learn. I want them to find their own way to empowerment.”

The yantok, a rattan stick, is the most common weapon in Eskrima. Here, Marcellana demonstrates the sticks’ use on a heavy bag.

“Honestly, I’ve never been in a serious physical altercation, and I hope it stays that way,” Marcellana says. “Things can go wrong within seconds during a fight. I’ve had students who work in the prison system and law enforcement agencies. They have stories in which they had to resort to physical combat, and they couldn’t risk pulling out a firearm.”

Throughout his career, Marcellana has won competitions at the Arnold Sports Festival as well as at the Battle of Columbus, part of the World Martial Arts Games, but he insists those accolades can be deceiving.

“Everyone has their medals and trophies,” he says. “You have to separate sport and real life. My grandmaster, one of the deadliest people I know, was only 5’3” and was a decorated war veteran. He never won a tournament.

All his battle was legitimate. He had to take lives to save his own in World War II.” A trophy room full of medals becomes empty if you cannot defend yourself in real-life scenarios, he says.

January/February 2015 • www.trivillagemagazine.com

Dean Marcellana teaches Filipino martial arts at Columbus Health Works on West Fifth Avenue. For private self-defense or Eskrima classes, email keyboardescrimador@gmail.com.

“An award is just a piece of hardware,” Marcellana says. “It doesn’t define who you are or what you’re capable of. Just because you won a fight doesn’t mean you’re going to come out and survive some severe situations. There’s the game, and then there’s life.”

The combat specialist respects both the philosophies of the fighting style and its history.

During the Spanish occupation of the Filipino islands, the conquistadors were met with a resistance movement by the native people. The Spanish called the unfamiliar way of fighting “Eskrima,” meaning “skirmish.”

“During the Spanish Inquisition, they tried to ban the martial arts,” Marcellana says. “The invaders burned the books.

They didn’t want (the natives) to have a connection to their past identity. But then the Filipino natives made up these dances that were actually combat training. And they had costumes with elaborate designs; that was their alphabet. They were disguising literature for the martial arts.”

His piano-playing career started when he was 9 living in Delano, Calif., while his Eskrima endeavors began after his un-

high. When one area is neglected, he feels the effects throughout other parts of his life.

“The two go hand in hand,” he says.

“If I feel physically relaxed, it’s easier for me to create. If something is raining down on me or affecting me emotionally, I feel tight physically. I’m not able to be as free or as loose while sparring or teaching.”

A freelance musician, Marcellana primarily performs on the piano and keyboard solo and in groups.

He attended the Boston Conservatory, where he met his now-wife, Jennifer, who is a Grandview native. The couple have two children.

“I truly want to teach my family to grow and learn,” he says. “I want them to find their own way to empowerment.”

dergraduate years at the University of the Pacific Conservatory of Music in Stockton, Calif.

“I knew there was a large martial arts community there,” Marcellana says. “At the time, I was taking a classical Chinese/ Japanese style of fighting that translates to ‘the hand of the beautiful spirit.’ My sensei said, ‘Dean, you’re Filipino. Have you talked to any of the other Filipinos here?’

That was my introduction.”

Local self-defense classes help women learn how to react to dangerous situations Classes total 9-12 hours and are broken up over a few days. The first three hours are spent in the classroom, learning about risk reduction strategies.

From there, students learn and practice a variety of self-defense methods, including strikes, kicks and making fists to punch properly.

Toward the end of this hands-on training, students learn how to get out of chokeholds, bear hugs and wrist grabs, placing emphasis on disengaging from the conflict to seek help.

“There’s no foolproof move that is going to immobilize your opponent,” Petty says.

For the last three hours, Petty and his students go through different scenarios that mimic altercations without actually putting

nce the “fight or flight” response kicks in, quick thinking and muscle memory can be integral to getting yourself out of a dangerous situation.

Luckily, women have the opportunity to train their bodies and minds to properly react to conflict through a variety of self-defense classes offered in the area.

The city of Upper Arlington has offered women’s self-defense classes for many years, says Matt Petty, an officer with the Upper Arlington Police Department. The class is generally offered in the spring and is popular with women who are preparing to enter college, though Petty says women of all ages take the class.

“No one gets turned away,” Petty says.

Instructors try to work around any physical limitations the students may have.

The focus is on identifying strengths.

“If you can stack your strengths against someone’s weaknesses, you’re still going to come out ahead in the game. Maybe you are smaller; maybe you are not as strong, but there are things that you can do where you can tip the game into your favor.”

—Dean Marcellana, instructor anyone in danger. Petty tries to raise the intensity level at this point by taking the students out of their comfort zones.

“We try to instill confidence and power building,” he says.

In one scenario, an instructor might pose as an assailant and try to grab a student’s arm as she walks by. They might also roleplay an ATM scenario, where an attack is made from behind.

In another situation, a student might pretend to be on her cell phone.

In all cases, Petty says students practice what they’ve learned.

Self-defense classes are also offered at Upper Arlington Jiu Jitsu, where trainers similarly emphasize the importance of muscle memory.

“To get that, you need to put in a lot of reps,” says Tom Feister, one of the owners.

For the past three years, Feister’s wife, Kathy, has taught a one-hour women’s self-defense class at 6 p.m. every Thursday. The program teaches practical defense methods instead of the athletic training more typical of jiujitsu. The Feisters say students of various ages and fitness levels attend.

Though the class was started as a six-month revolving curriculum, it is open for drop-in students, Tom says.

Cost is $60 per month. Physical techniques include protecting the body from punches and other physical attacks. Students learn methods to free themselves from someone much larger on top of them.

“We try to look at the real-life context,” Kathy says.

Many scenarios focus on situations in which the attacker might try to take the victim to another location. Because of the intensity of the practice, participants can have the freedom to decide what level of physical activity they find to be comfortable. In some cases, a student

could become effectively paralyzed by fear, halting the class.

Kathy experienced that feeling firsthand during a class when her husband was demonstrating a chokehold on her from behind. Though the action was done in a controlled manner, Kathy felt panic begin to cloud her mental state.

“I just began to shut down,” she says.

That visceral response, she says, highlighted the importance of practicing the defense methods over and over.

The class focuses on teaching students how to make their opponents use more energy than they do, Tom says. Students

A Multitude of Meetings

A look at some of the groups that gather regularly at the library

I

f you’ve ever needed to organize a meeting in the Grandview Heights area, you likely know the Grandview Heights Public Library has a meeting room and a conference room available for reservation.

What you might not know is how many organizations take advantage of the space.

Here are just a few of the groups that rely on the library for regular meet-ups.

Service with a Smile The Grandview Civic Welfare Club has served the Grandview community for 94 years.

“Our goal is to do things in the community – to promote fellowship and community, and to be engaged in general welfare work,” says Nappy Hetzler, club vice president.

The club’s most popular event is its holiday luminary Civic Welfare Club sale, held at the library. The money the sale raises, Though it won’t happen at the library, the club’s 44th anand money raised through donations and fundraising, goes nual Columbus Bottle Show is Feb. 8 at the Doubletree Hilton to scholarships for Grandview Heights High School students.

The group meets on the last Thursday of each month and plans to use one of the library’s display cases to show off some members’ collections.

“The library has been so gracious to us during the years,” says Rojer Moody, club director.

Each meeting consists of bottle talk and an informative show-and-tell featuring members’ finds. One set of items that has enjoyed popularity among Columbus collectors has been Peter Schille Soda Company bottles, made by a bottler in German Village for almost 100 years starting in the late 1800s.

goal is to help bring about a passenger line between Columbus and Chicago, a service that would cut travel time to about four hours, says Ken Prendergast, executive director of All Aboard Ohio.

The group is also interested in a light rail line between Port Columbus International Airport and downtown Columbus. In addition to its advocacy, the club gets together to share information, talk about trains and do rail trip reports and critiques.

“Our people who attend are from all walks of life,” says Larry Robertson, Columbus coordinator for the group. “We have ex-railroad workers who still have a love for trains, teachers, engineers and a variety of people from all other fields.”

Couple’s 1968 house has undergone a thoroughly modern remodel

atrick and Katie Heublein’s new Upper Arlington home is, in reality, not very new at all.

Though the house was built in 1968, it’s been almost completely reconstructed. The brick exterior walls are all that remain of the original house. The new version is white, twice as large and looks completely different, starting at the new concrete driveway.

The Heubleins’ and the builder’s stories weave an interesting tale about salvaging, designing and expanding that resulted in a 5,000-squarefoot home instead of a dated, 2,500-square-foot

The centerpiece of the family room is the white wood fireplace front and mantle surrounded by bookshelves.

The hall bath is just one of the rooms demonstrating the house’s “rustic industrial” theme.

home with a two-story red brick pillared front porch on threequarter acres on Chartwell Road, close to Lane Road.

Charming, attractive, impressive. Any and all might describe the painted white brick house with dormers and country-style porches — prominent architectural features that help subtly incorporate an addition and a three-car garage to the rear.

The former Katie Will — who grew up “a couple blocks away,” she says, until her family moved when she was in eighth grade at St. Andrew Middle School – met her husband in Chicago, where she was working as commercial interior design architect. When she decided she wanted to go back home, they moved to a new build in Dublin’s Ballantrae neighborhood 21

in 2008. After the first two of their three sons arrived, thoughts turned to living in Upper Arlington.

That meant remodeling would be likely. Patrick, a commercial insurance salesman able to work from anywhere, met Troy Miller – owner of MillerTroyer Custom Homes, Amish Cabinetry and Remodeling – as Miller worked on his prize-winning BIA Parade of Homes entry in the Meadows at Lewis Center. It was designed to look like a reclaimed mill and featured Miller’s specialty, custombuilt Amish cabinetry and woodwork.

The Heubleins bought the vacant UA

house, which had been on the market for several years, and turned to Miller for renovations.

The couple were involved in most aspects of the remodeling design, especially Katie, who worked with architect Greg Miller of UA-based New Avenue Architects and Engineers on numerous finishing features throughout the home. Because of her architecture experience, she easily spoke the design architect’s language.

Her input included custom cabinets and shelving that are prominent throughout, as well as color, lighting

January/February 2015 • www.trivillagemagazine.com

The larger marble slab is one piece.

Patrick wired the whole house for a sound system, laid the snap-together floor in the playroom and did all the landscaping.

Varied-width reclaimed wood flooring is used throughout the main level.

It’s covered with a new product, Rubio Monocoat, which was mixed with a white oak finish and left a hard surface.

The family room features an impressive wood coffered ceiling and a white wood fireplace front and mantle with bookshelves on either side surrounding windows.

The Heublein house went from 2,500 square feet to 5,000.

and plumbing fixtures — selections that came from a long list of ideas.

In November 2013, Troy Miller started on the seven-month project. It entailed removing all but one interior wall, all exterior-wall drywall, wiring, plumbing, heating and air conditioning; tearing off the tall porch roof; building a kitchen addition with an excavated basement; adding dormers and two fireplaces; and installing reclaimed wood floors, including an inlaid herringbone design in the foyer. All rooms upstairs and down are reconfigured or turned to new uses.

The original two-car garage is now the family room. The living room is now a study/library with a wall of custom shelves. The dining and family rooms are now the pub and hearth rooms.

The pub has a chair-height bar and back wall made of reclaimed Chicago street-paving bricks from the 1800s.

The bricks are a back-home connection for Patrick, a Chicago native. A metal and glass wall separates the pub room from the hearth room, where there’s a paving brick fireplace with a couch and two sofa chairs.

Katie describes the overall look of the interior as “rustic industrial.”

“It’s a little bit modern, but rustic at the same time,” she says.

The large, stunning kitchen features dark base cabinets and marble countertops, white wall cabinets and stainless appliances beneath a vaulted ceiling. An oversized 5- by 12-foot island with a twin sink is the work area, and a second chairheight island half as large is for dining.

It’s where the kids eat and play. If they use markers to color, “It wipes right off the marble,” Patrick says.

A steam shower with a partial glass wall is one of the most noticeable features in the master bath.

The rebuild included a mudroom, where Miller made four lockers from barn siding. It’s near the back stairs that lead to the upstairs laundry and the playroom. The playroom is plumbed, so it can eventually be converted to a bedroom suite.

The laundry room has yellow cabinets and a white countertop. The nearby playroom is decorated with a colorful, child-height sink and brightly colored chairs.

The master suite with a vaulted ceiling is above the new, three-car ga-

rage. It’s down a 30-foot hallway from the main house, and its bath includes a pair of vanity counters separated by a standalone tub beneath a window in a niche along the outside wall. The tub is flanked by a large steam shower and partial glass wall. A walk-in closet is to the rear of that.

The second floor has three bedrooms, one with its own bath and one with a shared bath. For now, Katie says, two boys sleep in one room, and the room with a bath is for nursery care for their 1-year-old.

DAV E FOX DESIGN BUILD REMODELERS

Custom cabinets and shelving are scattered through the house.

The rebuilding also went below ground. With additional space under the kitchen addition, the basement was finished, too. There’s a theater with sofa and recliner seating for seven, a full bath and two other rooms not in use yet.

The parents probably spend most of their leisure time in the hearth room, Patrick says.

There will be more to do outside once the weather is more hospitable.

The Heubleins are considering adding a fireplace to the 800-square-foot concrete patio, which has exposed pebble for texture.

Miller finished work last July. After just a few months, Patrick says, “We haven’t found a thing we would do differently. We have figured out how to use about every foot.”

The house appeared on the NARI Home Improvement Showcase in September.

“The three of us are beer drinkers, and we wanted to put on an event that truly showcased the great beers coming out of central Ohio,” says Laura.

A ticket option for designated drivers offers endless play at the arcade games and a collectible pint glass.

To correct parking problems that cropped up last year, parking will be available at nearby buildings as well as the warehouse.

Guests who want to make the festival into an all-night affair and don’t want to worry about parking or arranging a designated driver for the event can book a night at Hyatt Place Grandview at a discount with a code available at the alliance’s website.

A ticket also buys a collectible tulip glass that can be used for all the beer samples a budding connoisseur can bear.

The complimentary cup is just part of what sets the Hullabaloo apart from the next beer festival, Laura says.

Nineteen local breweries have signed on to provide their potent potables. All the beers are on the high side in terms of alcohol content – think double or triple IPAs, imperial stouts, and Belgian dubbels or tripels – and many are among the breweries’ lesser-known offerings.

Tickets can be purchased at www. grandviewcraftbeer.com. Prices start at $20 for a designated driver ticket, and $60 for beer drinkers.

Slip-sliding Away

Neighborhood parks offer snowy slopes for sledding

It’s that time of year again – when ordinary landscapes are transformed into sparkling winter wonderlands.

If white slopes and rushing, chilly air is what you long for, you don’t have to travel farther than three Upper Arlington parks. All close at dusk.

Sunny 95 Park

Located off of Langston Drive near Greensview Drive, this park is surrounded by a wooded area full of pine trees. Sunny 95 boasts the steepest hill in the three local parks, though only one side of the hill is available for sledding.

Thompson Park

Located by the Lane Road branch of the Upper Arlington Public Library, this park offers a wide hill, though, again, only one side is available for sledding.

There are also a few trees that serve as natural obstacles to liven up the fun.

Thompson Park

Northwest Kiwanis Park

This park off Stonehaven Drive near West Henderson Road, which funnels into two baseball fields, offers a wide open, large hill. Sledders can ride down multiple sides of the hill that vary in length and steepness.
