Woman arrested in connection with fatal crash news@currentinfishers.com The Hamilton County Circuit Court issued a felony arrest warrant for crime Deborah Sundstrom, who was charged with operating while intoxicated causing death, a level 5 felony, and operating while intoxicated endangering a person, a level A misdemeanor.

After the court issued the warrant, Sundstrom turned herself into the Hamilton

County Jail and has since posted bond.

The warrant follows a crash on the morning of June 30, when a 2007 Buick SUV struck a bicyclist on Brooks School Road near Broadmoor Drive. The bicyclist, Robert Lackey of Fishers, was transported to Eskenazi Hospital, where he died. Sundstrom, the driver of the Buick, cooperated with investigators and claimed she didn’t see the bicyclist in time to avoid the crash.

Two found dead in Fishers home

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Just before 6 p.m. Oct. 24, Fishers police officers responded to a possible shots-fired call at 13401 Dorster St., Fishers, just west of Minden Drive.

Public records show Frank and Kristal Sergi own the home, in which two people were found dead.

The home is listed for sale online, and a neighbor told Current the couple was getting a divorce.

Michael Jensen, a neighbor who lives across the street, said he was with his son at Taekwondo class when his wife called and said shots were fired in the neighborhood.

According to Jensen, a construction manager called 911.

“She had heard from the building construction manager who had actually (heard) the shots and called 911 as fast as he could,” Jensen said.

Another neighbor, Madison Oren, said she had heard both Sergis are teachers and have two children.

When officers arrived, they said they spoke with witnesses and determined which house the shots came from. Officers entered the home and discovered two adults dead, one male and one female.

FPD didn’t release information on whether weapons were found inside the house, or if any of the wounds appeared to be self-inflicted.

As of press time, police did not confirm the victims’ indentities, but Hamilton Southeastern Schools closed two schools due to the deaths of two longtime staff members.

Fullhart seeks re-election bid

By Noah Alatza news@currentinfishers.com Michelle Fullhart is seeking a second term for her District 3 school board seat on the Hamilton Southeastern School Board.

Fullhart, a 16-year Fishers resident and longtime district educator, said she was always interested in serving on the school board because of her teaching background.

She was first elected in 2014.

“One of the reasons I ran originally was because I wanted to Fullhart bring a little more communication and transparency from a board perspective,” she said. “Not everybody knows about the board’s meetings, so I created a Facebook page campaign page and I have kept it and put when meetings are happening and what’s on the agenda, just so anybody that follows me is aware of what’s happening.”

Fullhart moved to central Indiana in 1991 and took a teaching position at Fall Creek Elementary. She took a break from 1997 to 2007 to take care of her three boys.

She then served as an educator at New Britton Elementary from 2009 to 2014.

The HSE school board is in the midst of a redistricting plan, and that has inspired parts of Fullhart’s campaign.

Fullhart said she is concerned about the feeder system in the disctrict regarding which high school students attend. She said students have referred to themselves as “flippers” who attend Riverside Junior High School, then end up attending a school not as many of their peers attend such as Hamilton Southeastern High School instead of Fishers High School.

Fullhart said she wants to look at a redistricting plan for grades 5 through 12 as opposed to the current K through 8 grade plan.

A Fishers resident will be one of three metal forgers compettelevision ing against each other during the 10 p.m. Nov. 2 Discovery Channel episode of “Master of Arms.”

Sharek Gadd lives on the banks of the White River in Fishers, and he forges commissioned works for organizations such as the American Red Cross, the American Lung Association, the United States Special Forces Association and the Infantry Bugler. Gadd has worked with metals since high school.

“It’s always been fascinating to me,” said Gadd, who forges tools, chests with locks, guns, knives and other items. “I do a lot of donation work for father-son camps. Dads bring their sons over, and we forge a knife together.”

Gadd was born in a commune called Padanaram - a primitive living experiment - in Silverville, Ind. in 1971. He joined “modern life” after a hereditary cancer killed several of his siblings and his fa-

ther. Gadd originally heard about “Master of Arms” while in Kentucky, where he had some of his items on display at a longrifle event. A friend he knew was there and approached him about the show.

“He’s always quick to shout praise or offer advice. He’s done work for movies, and he came across a call for applications (for ‘Master of Arms’) and reached out to me,” Gadd said.

Originally, Gadd was hesitant to apply because he thought of himself as a private person. However, his desire to make things and share them with others encouraged him to explore it.

“I didn’t expect anything to come from the application. The world’s pretty large,” Gadd said. “I’m grateful they took a chance on me.”

Gadd and the two other contestants will compete against each other during a timed event. In each show, three craftsmen compete against each other in each show during a “Master of Arms” series.

“It should be pretty exciting. There’s a lot of passion, a lot of stress, a lot of talent, a lot of sparks and flames,” he said.

“It’s kind of neat being in the public eye. I

Elsbury to run for HSE District 1 seat

By Noah Alatza news@currentinfishers.com Benjamin Elsbury said the timing is right to run for the Hamilelection ton Southeastern Schools Board of Trustees District 1 seat.

“It was really more of a calling to give back to the community,” Elsbury said.

The 16-year Fishers resident had a daughter graduate from HSE Schools in 2013, and he remains active in the school district.

“I support the PTOs and clubs, and I do guest speaking at the high school for a few of the classes that Elsbury are there, and so this felt like a good feeling to give back to the school system and help make it better than it is now,” he said.

If elected, Elsbury has several goals, including working on a trades program at HSE. He also said he wants to improve quality of life for teachers and retain top talent.

“They have been able to deal with growth,” he said of the current school board. “But I want to build on what they are doing well at and tweak it and make some improvements. There is always room to grow and improve, but honestly, they have done a great job.”

Elsbury has worked for 12 years with Huntington Bank in Fishers, where he is the branch manager.

“I want to bring my financial background (to the board),” he said. “Building relationships, critical thinking and problem-solving and the use of common sense, those things I feel are needed to help bring a voice to this role and help the community I serve for District 1.”

Hamilton County residents will have the opportunity to meet local books authors at the fourth annual Booktoberfest Author Fair from 1 to 4 p.m. Nov. 3 at the Hamilton East Public Library, 5 Municipal Dr. “We get a lot of requests about connecting our readers with local authors,” said Jennifer Harmon, HEPL Adult Engagement coordinator.

“Four years ago, we came up with this event as sort of an expo where we have authors at tables. For a couple of hours, people can just come interact with them and purchase books that they like. It’s just a way of making that connection.”

The author fair and expo will host 26 Indiana authors, including nine new ones.

“The authors will have their books there for purchase and they will sign them for guests,” Harmon said.

Authors will share tips and tricks they’ve learned along the way.

“There have been some great conversations in years past,” Harmon said. “People

Member FDIC

Dan Mudra has run three marathons, but his fourth will be for a fundraiser special cause.

Mudra is fundraising for the Cure Sanfilippo Foundation in honor of Carson Burroughs, an 8-year-old with Sanfilippo syndrome type A, a rapidly degenerative, fatal childhood brain disease with no cure or treatment.

Mudra, a Fishers resident, met the Burroughs family when his wife, Molly, worked with Carson’s dad, Craig. The Mudras moved to Fishers eight years ago. The Burroughs have since moved to St. Louis but the families have stayed in touch.

Mudra began training for the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon in July. He set training goals and race-day goals as pledge incentives. To date, he’s raised more than $10,000 in pledges from his family, friends and other supporters. He wants to raise $15,000 by the time of the Nov. 3 marathon.

“It’s been hard for me to make the times and the paces I’ve been trying to run,” he said. “Part of the big reason of doing this from the running standpoint, one of the motivators is I’ve always been pretty fat and slow,

historically. I’m a 10-minute-mile runner, so I wanted to have some pace goals. I set those and integrated them into the fundraising.

The whole idea was if I make certain training goals, then I earn those pledges people have given me.”

Mudra said every cramp, sore knee or side stitch while running is nothing compared to what Carson struggles with.

Throughout his training, Mudra has practiced with the Fishers Running Club. Several club members have donated money.

“That running club is such a good group of people to jump into a cause they just learned about minutes before,” Mudra said.

The battle of mudsock Fishers police, fire departments to create historical re-enactment

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers residents will have a chance to take a step back into cover story the city’s history when the Fishers Police Dept., Fishers Fire Dept. and Nickel Plate Players will put on a historical re-enactment of the Battle of Mudsock.

The Battle of Mudsock took place in Fishers Nov. 19, 1881, when, following an altercation, patrons from two rival saloons got into a brawl that injured 30 people and killed two.

FPD Officer Robert Bowling, who wrote the re-enactment script and will portray one of the characters, said Fishers in 1881 was known as a lawless railroad town where people loved to drink.

“Basically, what happened is it started about noon on Nov. 19, and there was an argument between two guys at a bar,” Bowling said. “The first big fight took place in Andy Farrell’s saloon. Someone from Wade Hampton West’s saloon came over and made an insult and a fight broke out, got his butt

kicked and (was) kicked out of the bar.”

Upon returning to the bar, patrons informed West about the incident and the pair returned to Farrell’s saloon.

“Wade Hampton West got into a fight with Benjamin Fouch, one of the principal characters of the other saloon. Benjamin puts on a pair of brass knuckles and starts pummeling (West) in the face,” Bowling said.

“Someone pulls Benjamin off and West runs out of the saloon and goes back to his bar.

You think that’s the end of it.”

Fouch, however, went to West’s saloon and hurled an insult. Patron Bob Dawson responded with an insult, and another fight broke out.

Approximately 30 people took part in the brawl. At one point, West struck Fouch with a brass faucet and killed him. After the fight, Farrell and his brothers got into an argument that sparked a gunfight that continued throughout the night.

West’s saloon closed down immediately following the fight. Farrell’s saloon was burned down two days later.

Fishers police and firefighters will portray characters from each saloon. The re-enact-

ment will be 3 p.m. Nov. 10 at the Ambassador House, 10595 Eller Rd. Gates will open at 2 p.m. and house tours will be offered from 2 to 3 p.m. Tickets are $12 online in advance or $15 at the gate. Proceeds will benefit the Fishers Fire Foundation, the Fishers Police Foundation and the Historic Ambassador House.

The Ambassador House had originally scheduled county historian David Heighway to speak on the battle in November. Marj Sparks, an Ambassador House board member, brought up the possibility of putting on a historical re-enactment instead.

“We were talking about our purpose, which is education, community and history, and we had scheduled David Heighway to come talk in November on the Battle of Mudsock, and I just spoke up and said we should re-enact that, so that is how it took off,” Sparks said. “It’s become a big benefit, so it’s really exciting that the police, the fire and the Ambassador House are all going to benefit from this.”

Food and drinks will be available for purchase. Parking is free. For more or to purchase tickets, visit battleofmudsock.com.

To sponsor or contribute, contact Sparks at (317) 903-9879.

more than a football game FPD Officer Robert Bowling said most people think of the annual football game between Fishers High School and Hamilton Southeastern High School when they hear about The Battle of Mudsock.

“The name ‘Battle of Mudsock’ is actually derived from this battle,” Bowling said. “It’s interesting to note that we were only a town for nine years when this occurred, so our population may have been 100-some people. Fishers had a unique history. It was a railroad town, and that’s the reason it became a town.

Because of that, it brings in lawlessness. Drifters come into town on the trains, and because there are so many saloons, fights break out.”

The Battle of Mudsock made national news, generating headlines as far away as New York and Texas.

Disappointed in Kavanaugh vote

Commentary by Terry Anker As long as there have been humans, we have flung our collective hopes to that which lies beyond our immediate grasp. Early explorers followed rivers and paths seeking the outer bounds of what might be called home. For their part, sailors would collect provisions, rig whatever might float and wade into the crashing surf knowing, if only through instinct, that there must be something more – something just past what we currently understand as tangible, risking life and family on a bet for the unknowable.

Too often, the quest would leave them consumed by an angry sea.

But then, some would find a humble rock cast upon the waters and there build a civilization.

This fortnight past, I found myself enjoying the hospitality of a stony coastline on a series of volcanic islands, part of an archipelago extending into the Atlantic Ocean cast from Saharan Africa.

In sailing around the landmass, one could imagine the vast and incalculable expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. In it, we are bolstered in the reassurance of such human striving. Certainly, we are creatures capable of both evil and glory. The bad in us is all too obvious. Still, in seeing the vastness of the rolling sea laid out, one is struck by our capacity to strive for something more. As the isle was the ultimate rigging point for Columbus and his crews bound for discovery, we wondered what must have been on their minds as they left the craggy but familiar shores to head due west toward the setting sun.

Much has transpired in these many millennia. Yet, there remains infinite discovery to be made — the bounds of space, the depths of oceans and the components of our own lives chief among them.

Lost and still not found Commentary by Danielle Wilson That’s it! I am done with debit cards.

Sure, they’re great when you don’t have cash and you can remember humor your PIN. And I do love that they masquerade as credit without the annoying interest rates and accompanying, “Let’s go to Vegas!” mindset. But enough, already. I can’t handle the inevitable break-up that comes after I accidentally throw it away at a Meijer gas station or one of my darling teens loses it somewhere in the landfill she calls a room.

The card that I have now, which is actually my third since April, is MIA. I’m confident the aforementioned child has it, but she swears to the contrary. I know I should cancel it immediately, but I’ve only had this one for six weeks. I haven’t even memorized the numbers yet!

And that’s the real rub. My debit card is part of the reason I survive as a working mom. When I have to start over with a

whole new set of expiration dates and CVV codes, life comes to a grinding halt. Suddenly, I’m receiving “payment could not be processed” emails from forgotten accounts with automatic bill pay and emergency texts from hangry kids who can’t add money to their lunch accounts. And my weirdly close relationship with Amazon Prime takes a major punch to the gut. I can no longer buy two, 5-foot posable skeletons with accompanying eyepatches without getting out of my seat and going to find my purse.

Can you imagine? The horror!

So, I’m holding out hope that my pretty little DC shows up soon. I really can’t go through another break-up.

Peace out.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK “A person should always choose a costume which is in direct contrast to her own personality.”

— Lucy Van Pelt, It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

Editor, We were very disappointed (in Republican Senators’ votes) for Judge Kavanaugh! Not only because of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, but because of Judge Kavanaugh’s rulings against environmental concerns. When are they going to address all the rollbacks by this administration that are detrimental to our environment? Do they not care about our children and grandchildren? Do they not understand the numerous and supported scientific research to reduce the effects of climate change, and what we need to do in the next 10 years? What about the health of U.S. citizens? The scientists have proven that these rollbacks will be harmful to humans.

What about the rights of women, LGBTQ and immigrants? We are so disappointed in their vote for what is morally right for all human beings, not just their chosen few!

What will their children think when they look back at their father or mother for taking away the individual rights of others?

With their vote, they taught children everyone will not be treated equally. The rulings in the Supreme Court will tear this country apart, and they are a major part of it. How is it possible to have such little compassion for the future of the nation?

Kay Fonte, Carmel Mary Pat Milewski, Westfield

Bagel, flagel, shmagel Commentary by Dick Wolfsie When I stepped inside a New York deli recently, I witnessed something peculiar.

People weren’t eating tradihumor tional bagels — those rings of hockey puck-shaped dough that have been boiled and then baked to a perfect brownish sheen. Instead, they were eating something called a flagel, also known as a shmagel. Shmagel/flagel, whatever. They looked delicious.

These bagels have been shmooshed (Yiddish for “flattened”) into the size of 45 rpm records before being put in the oven. One flagel or shmagel might not fill up your stomach, but it fills up your plate.

Some diners spread cream cheese over the top; others tried to slice the flagel the normal way, a risky maneuver given that flagels are half the height and twice the diameter of bagels. Some people also were putting lox on top, right over the onions or poppy seeds, or any of the 22 varieties.

There are websites dedicated to flagels, and other sites by people who want nothing more than to shmear the good name of bagel purveyors. One woman complained: “Flagels were invented 20 years ago, and I may have

gotten one of those originals this morning.”

Here’s another comment: “I really liked them. Do they have fewer calories than the regular bagels?”

Yes, and a pound of matzo weighs less than a pound of corned beef.

I dug deeper online to further educate myself about flagels. Where were they invented?

And how had I missed out on this earthbaking sensation prior to last week?

One site warned of the side effects of digesting this product, including headache, stomach cramps and irritability. I grew up in a home where everyone felt this way after every meal. Oops, sorry! I was reading a website that came up about the antibiotic Flagyl, not flagels.

When I got back home to Indy, I wondered if I could figure out a way to bring flagels to the Midwest and make a lot of money. Actually, I don’t think I’m smart enough. But some Einstein will figure it out.

‘Comedy of Errors’ farce set for run at The Cat

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When Becca Bartley first read Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors,” it was laugh at first sight. play “I first read the show when I was on a plane and despite trying to remain quiet, there were moments I couldn’t help but audibly react, laughing loudly enough that I got some weird looks from other passengers,” she said of the farce.

The Westfield resident is acting and producing Improbable Fiction Theatre Company’s “The Comedy of Errors” Nov. 2 to 11 at The Cat Theatre, 254 Veterans Way, Carmel.

“There is a lot of effort going in to each side and, as anything, I wish I had more time to devote to each,” Bartley said. “I have been involved in many aspects of theater over the past couple of decades, but this is my first time being producer.

Thankfully, a couple other members of the show are seasoned producing veterans and are helping answer any questions I have along the way. The acting side feeds into my creativity, and the producing plays into my type-A characteristics.”

Bartley said the show features a 20-member cast with a wide range of backgrounds and ages.

“As this is Shakespeare, we of course have to include some fight choreography,” Bartley said. “The Cat is a smaller venue, so it is always a challenge to figure out how to use the space well and get the full effect. For this show, we are doing comedic fighting. Keep an eye out for the difference of speed and, of course, fantastic character reactions.”

This is the first of Shakespeare’s plays the group has done which it hasn’t had to trim because of length. Bartley said the performance is likely to be under two hours.

“I began performing with the Improbable Fiction people even before the official creation of the company, so I have been with them since its start,” Bartley said. “I have been able to be on stage in many of the performances. The last two IFTC shows I acted in were ‘The Butler Did It Again’ and

Heartland Film announces winners editorial@youarecurrent.com The Heartland International Film Festival announced the filmmaker award winners for the festival’s 27th edition during its Oct. 20 GLOW: Awards Party at Newfields, 4000 N. Michigan Rd., Indianapolis.

The grand prize for Best Narrative Feature, and a cash prize of $25,000, went to Amélie Van Elmbt’s “The Elephant and the Butterfly,” produced by the Dardenne Brothers and executive produced by Martin Scorsese. The grand prize for Best Documentary Feature, and a cash prize of $25,000, was given to Alexandria Bombach’s “On Her Shoulders.”

The Jimmy Stewart Legacy Award, and a cash prize of $5,000, went to Indianapolis director Ted Green for “Eva.” Among the other awards, Kendall Goldberg’s ‘When Jeff Tried to Save the World” was presented with Heartland’s first FIPRESCI Best Directorial Debut for USA Narrative Film, and Dava Whisenant’s “Bathtubs Over Broadway” received the festival’s Humor and Humanity Award.

Adam Workman, Indianapolis, and Rowan Whitcomb, Noblesville, rehearse for “The Comedy of Errors.. (Submitted photo)

‘Much Ado About Nothing.’ Both took place at The Cat.” Bartley said the theater company enjoys having fun as well as producing quality theater.

“We take the time to develop characters and relationships that fit the show and are believable to the audience,” Bartley said.

Bartley plays Lucinda. Her sister is Adriana, who is married to the main character Antipholus of Ephesus. Adriana is played by Tamara Rulon, a Noblesville resident.

“Tamara and I have been on stage numerous times over the last six years, but this is our first time as sisters,” Bartley said. “Because we work so well together, it has been fun to bring a sisterly love and banter to life. One of the challenges is realizing that Shakespeare, like any author, developed his craft over the years. His ability to build characters in ‘The Comedy of Errors’ was not quite as developed as you may see in other, more well-known works.

There are moments when the actor has to take two character traits that do not typically go together and create a believable character. This ended up being a fun task to tackle.”

Other cast members include Adam Workman, Antipholus, Indianapolis; David Burch, Dromio of Ephesus, Noblesville; and Daniel Shock, Dromio of Syracuse, Noblesville.

Noblesville resident Ryan Shelton is directing the play. Christy Clinton, Fishers, is the assistant director.

Shelton and Clinton are founders of IFTC along with Noblesville resident Jeff Bick.

“We started producing shows together at the Belfry in Noblesville and with Noblesville’s Shakespeare in the Park,” Shelton said. “We have a partnership with Nickel Plate Arts as well.”

There are five performances, Nov. 2, 3, 9 and 10 at 8 p.m. and 2 p.m. Nov. 11. For more, visit iftheatrecompany.org

Warrior Kings release new album

By Mark Johnson editorial@youarecurrent.com Keep it simple. That’s how guitarist Casey Harshbarger and drummer/vocalist Ben Williams of the power music trio the Warrior Kings describe the inspiration for the title of their upcoming third album, “Warrior Kings III.” “We just didn’t want to spend too much time with the title,” Harshbarger said.

Williams agreed.

“We feel like the songs should speak for themselves,” he said.

Indeed, the new album, due out in November, follows previous releases “Warrior Kings” from 2012 and “Warrior Kings” in 2015.

“Warrior Kings Live” was released in 2016. Yet, the Warrior Kings and their music could hardly be deemed simple. It’s a hard-driving blend of blues and classic rock, laced with elements of grunge and rooted in the tradition of 1960s power trios such as Cream, the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Robin Trower.

“Hendrix is definitely an influence,”

Austin Shearer, bass; Ben Williams, drums and vocals; and Casey Harshbarger, guitar, are the Warrior Kings. (Submitted photo)

said Harshbarger, who lives in Fishers and teaches guitar. “It’s in his ability to bring in those elements to create a moment when you’re totally captivated.

We wanted to create a band that played the type of music that we would want to listen to.”

For more on the Warrior Kings, visit thewarriorkings.com. Songs from the new album and the first two are available as free downloads.

The Den by Foxgardin

PRE-OWNED SALE Central Indiana’s Only Lincoln dealership.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: Inside Sun King Spirits taproom and distillery, 351 Monon Blvd., Carmel What to get: The Carmel Tenderloin Price: A la carte, $3.50 per slider Anna’s take: The Den by Foxgardin is the perfect place to go if you want to sample a little bit of a lot of different items. It is a spin-off of the popular Foxgardin restaurant in Fortville. The restaurant offers four types of sliders, barbeque options, several sides and entrees. I ordered the fried mozzarella, a side of fries and the Carmel Tenderloin slider. The fried mozzarella are thick slabs of mozzarella cheese, cut fresh, marinated in house-made, wet batter, tossed in a dry batter, fried and served with homemade marinara sauce. They are what The Den calls “twice-fried,” so they’re extra crispy.

My favorite was the Carmel Tenderloin, a miniature twist on a sandwich famous throughout Indiana. It is the size of a slider, making it very conquerable compared to traditional tenderloins. The tenderloin is

actually made out of tenderloin and not the more common ingredient, pork loin. Chef Jake Burgess said the restaurant, which has no freezers, is fast/casual but chef-driven.

All sauces are made in-house.

The Den by Foxgardin is one of four restaurants inside Sun King Spirits, a taproom and new distillery just off the Monon near downtown Carmel. Sun King Spirits features the emerging concept of food halls, where multiple eateries with different menus are housed within one establishment.

Suggested pairings: Burgess said his goal for The Den by Foxgardin is for food to pair well with any of Sun King’s beers.

“My idea behind my food, here especially, is eat what you want, drink what you want and everything will meld together,” he said.

Berlin’s twin towers

Dispatches Herb inhibits sugar cravings — A woody climbing shrub that comes from the forests of India and Southeast Asia called gymnema – dubbed the “destroyer of sugar” for its abilities to stop sugar cravings in seconds – is finally making its way to the U.S. New York City-based startup Sweet Defeat is the first company to develop and market the herb to American consumers. The plant has a long history of use in India’s Ayurvedic medicine practices to help patients with diabetes and weight loss. The mint could potentially help the more than 30 million adults that have diabetes in the U.S., according to the American Diabetes Association.

Source: foxbusiness.com

Commentary by Don Knebel Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt has been called the most beautiful public square north of the Alps.

Its twin church towers travel reflect both religious dissonance and architectural harmony.

In about 1688, Frederick I of Prussia created a new outdoor market in an area of Berlin inhabited by a large number of Huguenots (French Protestants) who had fled persecution by French Roman Catholics. In 1701, Frederick gave the refugees permission to build a church at the northern end of the market, where they worshipped in the Reform tradition established by John Calvin. When indigenous Protestants, who worshipped in the tradition established by Martin Luther, demanded their own church, Frederick allowed them to build a Lutheran church at the southern end of the market. In 1785, Frederick II commissioned Carl von Gontard, a local Huguenot architect, to design and build virtually identical Palladian-style domed towers adjacent to the original churches. Beginning in 1818, a theater, its exterior design

complementing the domed towers, was erected along the western side of the plaza. The northern church became known informally as Französischer Dom (French Dome), and the southern church became known as Deutscher Dom (German Dome). The plaza itself was called Gendarmenmarkt after the military stables that once existed on the site.

Allied bombing during World War II severely damaged the buildings in Gendarmenmarkt. The East German government restored them all during the 1970s. Today, Französischer Dom is still used as a church and includes a Huguenot museum. Deutscher Dom,

no longer a church, houses an exhibit about German parliamentary history.

The theater is used as a concert hall for one of Berlin’s orchestras, which performs open-air concerts from the hall’s steps during the summer. In the winter, Gendarmenmarkt once again becomes a colorful outdoor market.

A problem with privilege Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt What’s the problem with privilege? It’s so hard to spell. Spelling the word privilege is my kryptonite; like Superman, it grammar guy weakens me and prevents me from saving the world. Every time I go to type it, I get the red, squiggly, judgmental, lightning-underline treatment from my word processing software.

Then I simply correct my spelling error (and quickly forget how to spell it again).

Privilege in life is a lot like that.

Even if those of us in positions of privilege stop and consider the fortunate hand life dealt us, we can easily forget and slip back into feelings of entitlement. I’m no exception. I’m a white, middle class, American man. In general, I’ve got a really good thing going for me (and I didn’t do anything to achieve this).

I was basically born a prince. It’s easy for me to get a job. I don’t get unfairly pulled over on the road or scrutinized extra in the airport security line. I’m not at all

worried when I walk to my car alone in a parking lot at night.

It’s not like privilege should be hard to spell. First of all, there’s no “d,” just a “g” hanging out on its own.

However, my biggest problem is with the vowel order. But when you think about it, privilege is all about something that benefits yourself, whether fairly or unfairly. So, it’s no wonder the first two vowels are “i” and then “i” again. The third vowel is “e” (like in the word “me”). So, when you spell privilege, think “I, I, me.” It’s pretty much a Toby Keith song.

My biggest problem right now comes from spell check — which, justifiably so — yells at me for my bad spelling.

Spelling the word privilege is my kryptonite; like Superman, it weakens me and prevents me from saving the world.

Keep the ladybugs out — It’s fall and ladybugs are looking for some place warm. If you’re seeing them in your home, try cloves as a deterrent. Place small pouches of cloves or sprinkle clove oil in infested areas. It’s non-toxic, smells nice and ladybugs don’t like it.

Paraffin is made from petroleum, which creates smoke that can be irritating to those with asthma and allergies. Beeswax candles emit almost no smoke so they are better for your air.

REQUEST: At that hearing, the public will be invited to offer comments on the following request (“Proposal”): Consideration of a Primary Plat Amendment to Thorpe Creek to include an additional 10.06 acres for 18 single-family lots to be known as The Woods at Thorpe Creek, Section 5.

LOCATION: The Proposal is generally located west of Florida Road, between E 113th Street and E 126th Street, also known as parcel 13-12-31-00-00-039.001 and has an address of 11991 Florida Road.

Indiana Law requires the City of Fishers to provide notice in a published newspaper circulation. Although Indiana State Law requires a noticed public hearing for a subdivision of land, the Plat Committee is obligated by law to approve a subdivision of land IF it complies with all the City’s development standards. If a land subdivision request doesn’t meet all the City’s development standards, the petitioner will need a waiver of the standard(s) and the Plat Committee may approve the subdivision with a waiver, or approve it with conditions and the waiver, or the request may be denied.

The case file about this project is available for public review in the office of the Department of Planning and Zoning, located on the 2nd floor at Fishers City Hall. The meeting agenda and related information will be posted on the City’s website forty-eight (48) hours in advance of the meeting specified above.

Written objections filed with the secretary of the Advisory Plan Commission before the hearing will be considered. If you would like your written comments to be provided to the Fishers Advisory Plan Commission, you must submit them one (1) week prior to the hearing date noted above. Oral comments will be heard during the public hearing.
