Pause on new out-of-district students passed by Mt. Vernon school board By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com At the beginning of the month, Mt. Vernon Community School cover story Corp.’s board of trustees approved a district plan to put a hold on students enrolling from outside the MVCSC district. Until June 1, 2019, Mt. Vernon’s five schools will not accept new students who live outside of the district’s boundaries, which include all of Vernon and Buck Creek townships in Cumberland, Fortville and McCordsville in Hancock County. The change does not affect those who already attend MVCSC. “We have recently secured the services of a demographer to complete a demographic study for our district and kind of give us an idea of where we’re going to be,” said Chris Smedley, Chief Financial Officer and interim co-superintendent for the district. The demographer is Susan Brudvig, an associate professor of business administration for Indiana University East in Richmond. Brudvig specializes in demographic analysis, geospatial analysis, market research, product forecasting and enrollment forecasting. As of Oct. 1, the district has 673 students enrolled who live outside district boundaries. “This resolution has been put in place right now just to kind of put a cap on the out-of-district flow that’s coming in,”
Smedley said. “That demographic study is going to help us drive a lot of decisions, one of them being what we want to do as we move forward with considering opening that possibility back up to out-of-district students in the future. That’s really going to drive that discussion as well as what we need to start planning for with possible expansion if those numbers show continued, substantial growth.” Surrounding the district are very large school systems like Hamilton Southeastern and the Metropolitan School District of Lawrence Township. “I know, just in general, I think most of the students are coming from the Lawrence area,” Smedley said. “With our district bordering both Marion and Hamilton counties, I think we’re getting students from both sides,” said Maria Bond, MVCSC’s director of community relations. Bond also said she believes MVCSC is appealing to families because it has more of a personal touch, offering more one-on-one time with teachers and smaller class sizes compared to neighboring districts. Smedley said academic performance in recent years also has drawn the attention of parents outside the district. “This is definitely a district that has shown improvement in those areas,” Smedley said. We were an A District (designated by the Indiana Dept. of Educaton) last year, and we anticipate being an A District again this year.” Smedley said during the past five years,
MVCSC enrollment has grown, on average, by approximately 150 students each year. In addition to out-of-district students wanting to attend, housing within district boundaries also is growing significantly. “We do meet with our towns quarterly – the Town of Cumberland, Town of Fortville and Town of McCordsville,” Bond said. “So, we get updates on our housing markets, what has been proposed, what might be coming and an actual number of plots that are planned. That data has been really important to get us to the point that we’re at right now. “Obviously, we’re trying to manage class
sizes, but we’re also trying to manage space in our facilities,” Smedley said. “So, those issues typically are funded through our tax funds, and that’s why we’re trying to take a proactive, responsible approach to be able to stay on top of that. At this point, there has not been (a discussion of a referendum). We are a data-driven district, so we want to make our decisions based on that.” District administrators hope to have final results by the end of December, which would then be presented in early 2019, likely at the January or February school board meeting.

ESSA Y Nothing finite
LE T T ER
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 WEE K “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.

‘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.

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,”

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.

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

Berlin’s Deutscher Dom and Französischer Dom. (Photos by Don Knebel)
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. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel.com.

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. Source: FamilyHandyman.com Indoor air quality — To improve indoor air quality, one of the easiest fixes is to replace paraffin candles with beeswax candles. 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. Source: FamilyHandyman.com CITY OF FISHERS PLAT COMMITTEE NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Docket: PP-16382 NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held by the City of Fishers Advisory Plan Commission at 5:00PM, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2018 in the City of Fishers Auditorium, located on the 1st floor within Fishers City Hall building, One Municipal Drive, Fishers, Indiana. 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. Department of Planning and Zoning City of Fishers 1 Municipal Drive, Fishers, IN 46038 (317) 595-3120 www.fishers.in.us
