Public plaza in the works for Sophia Square courtyard By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com The Carmel City Council is considering whether the city should spend $50,500 to begin designing a public plaza in the center of the Sophia city Square building in the Carmel Arts & Design District. The projects calls for landscaping and designated seating to create a space where the public can gather or relax or festivals can hold events. At the same time, nearby restaurants such as The Pint Room and Scotty’s Brewhouse are interested in using this courtyard plaza for outdoor dining. Some city councilors expressed concerns about using public money to build outdoor dining for private businesses. Corrie Meyer, director of the Carmel Redevelopment Commission, said logistics would need to be worked out, but the goal is to create something the entire community can enjoy. “It is absolutely a public space that we would control,” she said. “We would handle it just like we do the gazebo near City Hall.” With the gazebo, at Civic Square, interested users can apply with the city’s Board of Public Works to use the space for events such as weddings and only have to pay a $100 deposit that is returned if the property isn’t damaged. The difficult situation comes with using the space for dining. It’s possible that outdoor dining would be shared by the city – if the city needed it for an event – but also available to restaurants. That management system is something the city would need to work out. “It is all tricky,” Meyer said. “We are working through some of those questions and we should come up with the highest and best use at the most efficient cost. We are still in the design phase and it will be a complex project.” City Councilor Luci Snyder said she loves the idea of upgrading the plaza but hopes that restaurants aren’t expecting they get something that they can use rent-free whenever they please. Also, the pool will be separate from the public space. “It is a public square and if a restaurant wants to use it for something other than a festival then they certainly will have to pay for it,” she said. Scotty’s already has outdoor dining and The Pint Room is already planning to construct outside seat-

ing on the east side of its building outside the proposed plaza. Some expressed concerns about noise from the plaza affecting residents who live in Sophia Square. Mayor Jim Brainard said he would argue that outdoor dining is a public space that benefits everyone in the city. He said the key is to develop the space for not just one tenant in mind. Tenants can change over time. He believes it can benefit the entire area including neighboring businesses. City Councilor Ron Carter said he has no problem with the city paying for outdoor dining and said a precedent has already been set with street side outdoor dining along Main Street in the Arts District. Carter said he’s concerned about some of the other logistics involved. He wants bicycle parking to be considered. He wants restaurant owners and staff to have a way to dispose of grease or garbage without traveling through the public plaza. He doesn’t want to see cigarette butts from where restaurant employees are taking their breaks. The Pint Room and Scotty’s will have a unique setup where there really will be no “back” of the restaurant and so he said everything will have to be planned to keep this plaza looking fantastic. “We need to make sure that this is an extraordinary public space that everyone can enjoy,” he said. Context Design was the low bidder and the preferred firm for design. The hope is to have construction complete by the year’s end, Meyer said.

City Council recap
Compiled by Adam Aasen
What happened: The Carmel City Council unanimously passed an ordinance about commissions giving regular presentations or reports. What it means: The bill started off as an effort to make the Carmel Historic Preservation Commission give regular reports to the city council. This comes after a failed effort to turn the Johnson Addition neighborhood into a conservation district which made some councilors say they didn’t know enough about what this commission was doing. In committee, it was decided to expand the bill to affect organizations other than just Historic Preservation.
What’s next: The Economic Development Commission will send a quarterly report in February, May, August and November. The Carmel Redevelopment Authority – different than the commission – will report biannually with a written report in January and July. The Carmel Cable and Telecommunication Commission will report biannually in April and October. The Carmel Ethics Board will present an annual written report. Historic Preservation will present a quarterly report in January, April, July and October by a commission member or a staff member.
What happened: A proposed ordinance was introduced to change the speed limit to 35 mph on River Road and 40 mph on Gray Road. What it means: Current speed limit law was amended to now affect River Road from Main Street to Community Drive and River Road from Community Drive to 146th Street.
What’s next: The bill is sent to Utilities, Transportation and Public Safety Committee.

Projects move forward for City Center phase II With two new buildings – Mezz 42 and The Nash – set to open this summer as a part of Phase II of the Carmel development City Center, attention is now moving to several new buildings that will begin construction nearby in the coming months. The next two buildings set to begin soon are the four-story parking garage owned by the city and the Baldwin and Chambers buildings, located off Range Line Road between The Nash and City Center. In 2015, construction should begin on the Baldwin and Chambers buildings. Design phase is under way. The four-story buildings will have approximately 64,000 square feet for luxury apartments and retail/office space. Pedcor, which owns the buildings, is currently working with four commercial businesses who will occupy about 14,000 square feet of commercial space. Completion date is estimated for 2017. The parking garage – called Park East – that was approved months ago by the Carmel City
Council and was passed with a 4-3 vote for a tax increment finance deal. The garage will have no less than 620 parking spaces and will include up to approximately 28,000 square feet of commercial retail/office space. Design is under way with construction expected to start in second quarter 2016. Further down the road in the next few years, Pedcor plans to construct the Playfair building, a five-story structure with 63,000 square feet for luxury apartments and retail office, Pedcor Office 5, a two-story building with 20,000 square feet for office space, and the Kent building, a three-story structure with 111,000 square feet of luxury apartments. A start date for those projects is listed for fall 2015 but that doesn’t necessarily mean construction would begin and it could still be in preliminary stages. The Wren, a seven-story building with 88,000 square feet of apartments, office and retail, is scheduled for a 2016 start. The Windsor, a four-story building with 64,000 square feet, is scheduled for a 2017 start. The proposed hotel still is to be determined.

Shoreline workshop June 13 By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com On June 13 at 9 a.m. the Hamilton County Soil & Water Conservation District in conjunction with the Hamilton County county Urban Conservation Association, Hoosier Aquatic Management and the Indiana Native Plant and Wildflower Society will present a workshop called “Shoreline Enhancement Workshop” at Ridgefield Subdivision in Fishers. “I work with a lot of property owners and individual land owners in the county making recommendations for conservation and improving their properties. Quite often that is for ponds and detention ponds. We have over 1,000 in the county so we stay pretty busy,” said Claire Lane, backyard conservation coordinator for HCSWCD. Many of these ponds in Hamilton County can be problematic for homeowners due to issues such as erosion, algae blooms, Canadian Geese infestations and high maintenance costs. In order to help residents better understand the treatments available, the HCSWCD has partnered with Dan McCord, a resident of Ridgefield Subdivision. A variety of treatments will be discussed. Residents can add native flowers and grasses

along the banks to help stabilize shoreline. “These native plants have root systems that go down anywhere from four to 12 feet in the ground so they really stabilize the soil so it doesn’t erode at the bank,” said Lane. The native plants serve two purposes – to help with erosion and keep geese away. The geese can’t see predators through the foliage so they won’t walk up onto the grass. The workshop is free to attend and attendees can pre-register by contacting Dan McCord at dan.mccord@comcast.net or Claire Lane at claire.lane@hamiltoncounty.in.gov.

Russian fest Jenny Perelmuter and Stacy Klauz, both of Carmel, sold food tickets and mingled with old alumni from the school. (Photos by Amy Pauszek) "Where’s Amy?" could not resist accepting the invitation to attend The Russian Festival at University High School in Carmel. I was greeted by co-founder of the Russian -American Culture Center's Natalia Rekhter who took me on a wonderful tour of the campus. The school’s mission is to expand students’ horizons, develop long-term friendships and build global community. The well-attended festival held up to its claim that the day would be fun for the whole family. Ethnic food, arts and crafts by Russian artisans, Russian music, ballet, folk dance and activities for all ages were jammed packed through out the day. One highlight for me was watching a wonderful documentary on Russia then topping it off with a few cartoons all in Russian. Make plans to attend this event next year … it was fantastic.

Snyder: It’s ‘business as usual’ after election loss By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com
A G A L A C E L E BR AT IO N
IN T HE M A K ING
Don’t miss a grand summertime celebration to toast the completion of Civic Theatre’s 100th season.
Luci Snyder has been elected to five terms on the Carmel City Council. She took four years off when she government decided to run against incumbent Mayor Jim Brainard in 2003, but she recaptured her seat at the next election opportunity. But Snyder’s decades of experience on the council will be missing this January. She lost to challenger Jeff Worrell, a member of the Carmel Redevelopment Commission. Snyder spoke to Current in Carmel about what she plans to do next and her hopes for Carmel’s future. What do you plan on doing next now that the election is over? The election is over, but between now and the end of the year I will continue to do the job for which I was elected four years ago. I just came back from city legal and we were reworking an ordinance that came out of finance committee to make sure that at the next city council meeting all of the changes have been implemented correctly. I have contacted the people who are currently on council who will remain on council and asked if any one of them wants to sit with me and
go through the tax abatement review process that I have done in the past eight years because next year if I’m not here and the lady in the clerk-treasurer’s office who does it with me isn’t here there will be no institutional memory and that’s unacceptable. I will make every council meeting and committee meeting that I’m supposed to be at and do Snyder my job until December 31. That’s what people expect me to do. Can you explain further about how you will be helping with the transition? Well, I think people want the transition to go smoothly and I wouldn’t do anything else. When you leave office, the people who remain have to understand what is involved. I have an e-mail that I sent to several city councilors who I think might end up being finance committee chairs and I offered to go over tax abatement and help educate anyone. That’s the grown-up way to deal with these things. How do you deal with the long transition? There’s still half a year until the next council takes over. You behave like a grownup and do your job. I just don’t see any other thing you should do.
It’s an election. Some people win and some people lose. Can the mayor get aggressive with his agenda now that he has a victory or does he need to wait for the new council to get the votes? It depends on what he’s asking for. You know me. I examine every issue closely. I don’t just go against the mayor on every issue. In the case of the budget, it’s obvious that the people decided that they want all of the things that the mayor has promised them and I don’t have a problem with that if that’s what they want for next year. The only thing I’m terrifically concerned with is that there’s enough money in street repaving. As you know, it was shorted. I don’t care what anyone says. For three years, the mayor hasn’t put enough money in that. I want to make sure that doesn’t happen. Of course, if there ends up being money taken out of the fund after it’s passed then there’s nothing I can do about that. As you remember, I voted for City Center Phase II and there are a lot of people who think I shouldn’t have voted for it. Well, that’s their problem. Not my problem. I’ll vote the way my conscious says.

Jill Louise (Stott) Perelman, a former Carmel resident, died May 10 in Montana at age 84. Born Feb. 14, 1931, at Grand Rapids, Minn., Perelman was the daughter of Mildred Sweum and Calvin B. Stott, a district ranger on the Chippewa National Forest. Her maternal grandparents were Norwegian immigrants who ran the lumber mill in nearby Deer River. Perelman and her younger sister Nancy developed a deep respect and knowledge for trees, plants and their identification through Calvin’s tutelage. During her education at the National College of Education in Evanston, Ill., she worked as a student teacher at an inner-city school. Educating children was a passion she never lost. In her 20s, she met and married Mel Perelman, and together they traveled, worked and made homes in Houston, Switzerland, central Indiana and Heswall and Camberley, England. Before moving to Montana in her 70s, she donated a portion of her home and land to the Carmel Clay Parks Department. For more of her life and legacy, visit currentincarmel.com.

Mezz apartments now opening By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com A new apartment building next to The Palladium right on the Monon is declaring in its brochure that if you live development there, “you’re living life to its fullest.” Mezz 42, formerly called The Mezz, is the work of Anderson Birkla and is described as “boutique energy” full of “high-energy, highdemand, high-sophistication.” After years of construction – including delays due to a number of issues including power lines – Mezz 42 is now giving tours and will have residents move into the space in July. The name comes from the mezzanine-level seating visitors enjoy at the neighboring Center for the Performing Arts and the number 42 was added to not only reflect the number of units available, but also that the building is “42 steps” away from amenities and activities. The first floor of the four-story structure will house Anderson Birkla’s offices and a law firm. Currently, a gym called Survival Fitness is already moved into the ground floor with Monon Trail access. Mezz 42 residents will get limited access to the gym’s facilities free when they move in. Anthony Birkla, principal of the real estate

development company, said he thinks these units will define luxury and comfort. Residents can enjoy the walkability and cityscape view of urban living in a suburban environment. “I’ve had more demand than I have units available,” he said. Units include corner-studio apartments, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. One side of the building features two-floor units with spiral staircases breaking up the space with very large windows. The other side features flat, one-floor units. Studio apartments range from $960 to $1,200 a month for 605 to 890 square feet. One bedroom units range from $1,275 to $1,390 per month for 704 to 950 square feet. Two bedroom units range from $1,875 to $1,975 per month for 1,320 to 1,448 square feet.

Lewis gets Golden Hoosier Award By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com At 93, Corona Lewis is not the active volunteer she once was for the Indiana State Museum. achievement But she supports it anyway she can and frequently has friends drive her to special events. “If they want to call me to ask me about what happened when, if I can remember which I quite often can, I do help,” she said. “I still try to help promote the museum. I also have done some research for the Indiana Historical Society.” The long-time Carmel resident received the Golden Hoosier Award from Lt. Gov. Sue Ellspermann on May 18. The award, which began in 2008, annually honors a group of outstanding Hoosier senior citizens for their lifetime of service and commitment to their communities. Lewis was nominated by Karine Huys, manager of volunteer services at the Indiana State Museum. “I saw the Golden Hoosier Award as a wonderful opportunity to acknowledge the time, talent and treasure that Ronie has brought to the Museum over the last 40 (plus) years,” Huys said. “She has been a treasure to us and

deserves the recognition of all her hard work.” Shahid Athar, 70, who lives on the west side of Carmel, also received the Golden Hoosier honor. Athar is a clinical associate professor at Indiana University School of Medicine and an endocrinologist in private practice in Carmel with the St.Vincent Medical Group. Lewis and her late husband Fred, who died in 2004, moved to Carmel 49 years ago for his job as a mechanical engineer for Standard Locknut Inc. For more, visit currentincarmel.com.

Woodland Country Club of Carmel has undergone some serious renovations and is now ready for a busy, fun and diversion active summer. Over the past two years, the club’s dining facilities, fitness center and pool area have all been improved, and a childcare center, workout studio, pro shop and poolside grill have all been added. Woodland, established in 1956, has received a boom in members as a result. Woodland Country Club was the first private country club in Hamilton County. In 1928, Bill Diddel, a famous golf course designer, bought the land and designed a course on it, keeping it public until it gained popularity and he was encouraged to make it private. In 1955, Diddel leased the land and a pool and clubhouse were built. Since then, it has become a staple establishment in the Carmel landscape and a friendly, familiar home for hundreds of members. Over the past two years, it has been improved and added to, making it a place for an all-inclusive country club experience. Robert Reynolds, club manager, said the recent renovations of the club were done in two phases. “Our first phase we completed a

year ago,” he said. “We renovated pretty much the entire clubhouse, but focused on the dining areas.” Finished last year was the “second phase” of renovations. “With that,” Reynolds said, “we added a new fitness facility, childcare, a movement studio, a new pro shop and a new poolside grill.” To learn more about Woodland or becoming a member, visit www.woodlandcc.com, call 575-2802, or email info@woodlandcc.com.

Memories with Letterman By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Tom Duke will always have a soft spot in his heart for David Letterman, with good reason. looking back His late father, Bill Duke, a former Carmel High School principal, made a couple appearances on the “Late Show with David Letterman.” It all started when Letterman was conducting a search for a look-alike to visit his mother, Dorothy Mengering, in Carmel on Mother’s Day since he couldn’t be there. Letterman’s older sister, Jan Millholland, suggested to a Letterman producer that Duke, who she worked with in Carmel, looked a lot like her brother. “His sister said, ‘You don’t need to do a search, we have a guy right here in Carmel who looks just like David’,” Duke said. Letterman thought it was a great idea and talked to his mother on the show as Duke visited her. “Dad came in and gave her a hug and gave her a Happy Mother’s Day cake,” Duke said. The next year in 2001, Letterman invited Duke to do it again. Bill Duke had developed throat cancer in 1999 and was actually under

treatment when he made those appearances. “When (Letterman) caught wind my dad was sick, he flew (Dad) out to meet him,” Duke said. “Dad got to meet Dave and be at the show.” Bill Duke, who had retired as Carmel principal in 2002, died at age 58 on Aug. 30, 2003. “When Dad passed away, (Letterman) sent the most beautiful bouquet of flowers and a personalized card that was signed ‘your friend David Letterman,’” Duke said. Tom Duke, a 1999 CHS graduate, lives in Carmel with wife Melissa, who is a cheerleading coach at CHS. Letterman, an Indianapolis native, concluded his long-running talk show on May 20.

Carmel’s Julie Voris finds the job she was meant to do By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Submitted photo
Julie Voris began her career as a high school English teacher. That turned out to be not the exact fit she was cover story seeking. “I segued from a classroom with a chalkboard to a classroom that is a gym, which is a whole lot more fun,” Voris said. Voris moved to Carmel with her family when her husband, Jeff, took over as Butler football coach in 2006. Voris is a group exercise instructor, master trainer and a Beachbody coach. She serves as a consultant for the health and fitness products that Beachbody offers. “If you find the thing you’re supposed to do with your life, it doesn’t feel like juggling,” Voris said. “None of it feels like work to me because it’s what I’m doing. I say I wear a lot of different hats because I teach live classes, I teach future instructors to teach classes and build a Beachbody business. ” Voris became a fitness instructor after she gave up being a school teacher at the time to stay home with three young children when her husband got the Carroll University head coach job in 2001 in Waukesha, Wis. “I joined the YMCA and we were there a couple of months and the instructor said to me ‘I think you should be teaching classes,’” Voris said. “I started teaching three months after we joined. That was one class that turned into two classes, that turned into three classes and then more classes. That turned into applying to be a master trainer and to be a Beachbody coach. It all kind of came from one conversation in the lobby of YMCA. One conversation can change your life, if you let it. “Six months into it, I woke up and said ‘Oh,
Meet Julie Voris
• Personal: Age 45. Jeff and Julie have three children, Jenna, who just finished her freshman year at Butler. Josie will be a senior and Jessie a freshman at Carmel High School. • Education: Voris competed in dance, gymnastics, track and field and volleyball at Oakwood (Ill.) High School. Graduated from Eastern Illinois with a Bachelor’s degree in English. • Website: julievoris.com • What makes her stand out among other fitness gurus: “I work to create an inspiring, motivating and empowering community for those in my classes and online challenge groups. I believe everyone is stronger than they think they are. I believe we can all do more than we think we can do. Being able to connect with folks, whether one-on-one or in a room of 100-plus people in my classes at the Fishers YMCA, is what I thrive on. It’s my goal to empower others to believe in themselves, do more and live healthier lives. Once we can train our brains we can train other parts of our body – but it all starts in our heads and our hearts. If we can push harder in our fitness, we can push harder in our lives.” • Tip for business and financial success: “Steve Jobs said it best, ‘The only way to do great work is to love what you do.’ Find what inspires you, what makes you tick, what connects with your heart is my best success tip, no matter what your industry.”
this is what I was I was supposed to do with my life all along. Teaching is really what I love. I need to find where I am supposed to be. Both my husband and I are doing the thing that we were put on this Earth to do. We get each other and what we’re doing, professionally as well as personally.” Voris said they offer advice to each other. “We try to be a sounding board for each other,” Voris said. Voris said she started from scratch when they moved to Carmel to find someone to hire her to teach fitness, but she is well-established now. “We are very connected to Carmel, to Butler
and to Indiana,” Voris said. “We’ve lived a lot of places. But this is the first time we’ve felt like we were home.” She has appeared on some workout videos and has been a regular contributor on Fox 59’s Fit on Fox segments on the morning news for the past year. “It’s challenging to find ways to bring fitness and health to people,” Voris said. “There is so much information out there if we can find ways to make it simple and digestible. I feel like it’s my job when I’m on Fox to keep it simple and give you something you can use today. Live TV is fun. I was nervous the first couple of times. But now I’m like ‘mic it up, let’s go.’”

It’s high time to shutter IRS We’re sure you’ve heard about the latest fail at the IRS. It was recently reported tax return information for “about 104,000” taxpayers was illegally accessed by computer hackers overseas. The stolen information was used to submit fraudulent returns and, as a result, “about $50 million” in refunds were issued. This, of course, is on top of the recent scandal wherein the IRS was caught targeting conservative organizations. We taxpayers finally need to say, “Enough, already. Time to shut it down!” Wherever you find our government, corruption and incompetence are sure to follow. Since we know the Republicans will never have the collective spine to overhaul our tax system, it’s time to look at thirdparty candidates. ••• Your tax dollars are hard at work, fellow Hoosiers. The firefly has been proposed as our official state bug. No, we are not making this up. This would be the breakthrough measure of Rep. Sheila Klinker (D-Lafayette), who says she’ll sponsor a bill in the next General Assembly that would make the firefly the state’s official insect. ••• Next week in the back of your newspaper, you’ll find our Classifieds section, and it will have a new look. We are deploying a new program that automates the collection and display of “liner” ads around the common display ads. Going forward, liner ads may be placed with Raquel Dowley, our office manager, at raquel@youarecurrent.com or 317.489.4444, ext. 4.

Our eldest son capped a successful first year of college with a class trip to the seeming birthplace of democracy, Athens, Greece. As a student in Indiana University’s Civic Leaders program, it related sufficiently enough to “actual” study to make the expenditure worthwhile. In spite of a lurking suspicion that he’d found a loophole that provided an oh-so-perfect excuse for an island junket, his mother and I were impressed by the reading list and occasional photo from important historical sites. Certainly, there are other pictures of young adults being young adults – let’s call those historic sights – but, we are content that the time and money was well spent. As luck and an understanding spouse would have it, I found myself enticed to participate in a program at a nearby Aegean pied-a-terre a few days antecedent to our son’s scheduled return to the U.S. The gap after the Memorial Day conference and my retrieving our progeny allowed for a
short tour of the Peloponnesian isthmus. Populated since pre-history, our present understanding comes from Paul’s letters in the New Testament to the locals of Corinth, or perhaps to the Olympics foundations in Olympia, or maybe to the Hollywood film “300” and its spawn which follows the legendary tale of the Spartans. With each vista more impressive than the last and with each ruin more awe-inspiring than another, one wonders what will remain of us in more than 3,000 years. Would city leaders be pleased in how they are memorialized? Are we destined to be remembered by empty tombs, ancient vandals and fragments of broken marble? If not a statue of stone, then can an idea, well-conceived, hope for immortality? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel.com.
I’ve just left my youngest child’s recognition ceremony, though as my husband Doo likes to point out in his Mr. Incredible voice, “It’s not a graduation. She’s humor moving from fifth to sixth grade!” Regardless, the Wilson family is now officially done with elementary school and I couldn’t be happier. Of course tears threatened a few times. When you see your baby at the podium recalling her fondest memories of kindergarten in front of a few hundred people, and she speaks with poise and confidence and just the right amount of humor, you can’t help but feel proud and slightly sentimental. I sat amidst parents and teachers whom I’ve gotten to know over the last eleven years, and I realized this might be the last time I see them. And if I’m perfectly honest, I’m not quite ready to replace field days, science fairs, and movie nights with field trips to D.C. and scientific dissections of pigs and, gulp, date nights. Graduation ceremonies inherently emphasize your child’s growth, and force you to take stock of how far she’s come. I can easily remember Maddie’s first day of school and how my neighbors and I congratulated ourselves with a mimosa cocktail that morning. Today, after I put my dancin’ queen on the bus for her last day, I had a single moment of melancholy and then jumped into the air for an Irish feet clapping. “Job well done!” I thought. So though part of me will miss the innocence of elementary school, I mostly feel relieved that we can finally close this chapter of our lives. Not that I’m particularly anxious for another teenage girl in the house; her older sister is providing enough hormones, sass and eye rolls for the both of them and I haven’t yet developed a strategy for hiding all of my clothes, shoes, make-up and accessories. And Lord help us when we have four drivers; one has aged me easily 10 years. [Yes, I now look forty!] But despite what Doo thinks, graduating from elementary school is a big deal, and I for one am celebrating. Peace out.

Gifts you shouldn’t give
Commentary by Dick Wolfsie
This is part two of my highlights of the newest Hammacher Schlemmer gift catalog. Just in time for Father’s Day, it includes some items that might make dad wish you’d gotten him a tie. Insect Blunderbuss: This is humor a rifle-type weapon that when loaded with salt can be used like a shotgun to pulverize flying insects. It offers a great lesson to pests about the dangers of a high sodium diet. The Selfie Toaster: Here›s how it works. You upload a photo of yourself to the manufacturer and they send you a customized heating insert that imbeds your likeness onto the toasted bread. Many women returned the item, claiming they looked old and wrinkled, so now the company is recommending against using English muffins. Un-kinkable Hose: The maker claims this hose cannot tangle. HS prides itself on being a family magazine, so this product is rated as the least kinky gift in the entire catalog. The most kinky? Probably the plantar fasciitis high heel shoes. The Dental Hygiene System: This toothbrush has an accelerometer and a magnetom-
eter embedded in the handle, which sounds to me like something you shouldn’t put in your mouth after running it under water. Download the app to your cellular device and you can see graphs and charts showing how successful your tooth-brushing has been. And you can monitor the kids’ progress, as well. Friends might ask you, “Do you have a photo of your grandson on your phone?” “No, but take a look at his plaque report.” Rechargeable Personal Air Purifier: The device hangs around your neck and eliminates airborne germs in your personal space. It’s not clear whether it’s your germs or someone else›s they’re worried about. The gadget emits two million negative ions a second, which doesn’t sound like the ideal way to make new friends and meet new people. That’s the Father’s Day edition of the Hammacher Schlemmer catalog. Stay tuned for the 2015 Christmas edition, out in just two weeks.

Get wild at Indy’s Zoobilation By Maddie Yerant • news@currentincarmel.com

June 13 will be a wild night for the Indianapolis Zoo – well, even more wild than the usual wild animals make it. That’s the Friday of the Indianapolis diversion Zoo Zoobilation, an annual event bringing together humans, animals and central Indiana businesses for one night of food and fanfare from 5:30 p.m. to midnight. “It’s grown into a party,” said Zoobilation co-chair Ellen Coen. According to Ellen, Zoobilation began at the house of Indianapolis real estate magnate Herb Simon in the 1980’s. It has since become a sizable fundraiser and event, with live music and more than 70 restaurants and vendors in attendance – all on the grounds of the Indianapolis Zoo. Each year, Zoobilation celebrates a different exhibit, whether new, returning or enhanced, according to Larry Coen, Zoobilation co-chair. This year, the zoo’s returning koalas are center-stage; the sold-out event even has an Australian theme. “We’re expecting a big crowd, shoulder-to-shoulder attendance where 5,000 people are packed into relatively small areas, if you think about the pathways that we use at the zoo,” Larry said. “So it’s a really great party atmosphere.” More than 70 restaurants and bars across central Indiana will join in the fun, donating their food and services to the night, including Matt the Miller’s and Langton’s Irish Pub in Carmel, and Stone Creek in Zionsville, according to Larry. These businesses will offer their fare not only to guests, but also to a panel of judges, who will select winners in different categories. Last year’s dessert winner, Stone Creek, will be bringing back an old favorite, according to marketing manager Mallory Doyel. “It is our golden raisin and cranberry bread pudding,” Doyel said. “We’ve been serving it for years now, and it’s kind of a crowd favorite. So every year, people kind of come up to our booth, hoping we’ll have it, and they get excited when we do.” According to general manager Chris Parker, Matt the Miller’s will be serving shrimp and grits, while Langton’s will be serving cottage pie and seafood chowder. Parker said the event is great both for the zoo and participating businesses. “We’re located in Carmel, and doing events outside Carmel and Hamilton County are beneficial just to reach people that might not know we exist, or where we’re located, or have ever heard of us before,” Parker said. “It’s probably the biggest fundraising event in the city every year, from what I gather.” For more information, visit the Indianapolis Zoo website at indianapoliszoo.com/events-and-groups/zoo-events/ zoobilation.
Noblesville youth finds friends in Neverland news@currentincarmel.com For Colin McCabe, performing isn’t as much about the spotlight as it is about the time spent with his theater cast mates – both on and off the stage. The third-grader at Our Lady of Grace in Noblesville is making his Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre debut as Dweasle, a Lost Boy in “Peter Pan.” “I wanted to do ‘Peter Pan’ because it would be a great acting experience for me, and I could make new Colin McCabe as friends,” McCabe said. “I like Dweasle, a Lost Boy in performing because I get to “Peter Pan.” (Submitted photo) make new friends.” By now, even at 9-years old, he should have plenty of them. The family musical at Beef & Boards brings the total of productions listed on his resume to 10. Performing since he was a 4-year-old, he’s been seen in shows at The Artist Studio, Civic Theatre and Theatre on the Square, to name a few. Of course, each has its challenge. “The hardest part is remembering all the lines,” McCabe said. Still, it’s all about the friendships he’ll take with him long after the curtain goes down. “My favorite thing about ‘Peter Pan’ are my friends,” he said. “I get to hang out with them on breaks.” While he’s been developing his acting chops most of his life, he also has another potential career in mind. “I have wanted to be a scientist since I got my first science kit in preschool,” McCabe said. “But I love to act, too. So I don’t know yet!” “Peter Pan,” the high-flying Tony Award-winning musical featuring the iconic songs “I’m Flying, “I’ve Gotta Crow,” “Never Never Land” and “I Won’t Grow Up,” is on stage through July 3 in the intimate space of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre.

Three D’s gets ‘schooled’ By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com It’s hard enough for young rock musicians under the age of 18 to find a place to perform. And it’s even harder for performance rock fans of the same age to find a place to watch live rock bands. But here in Carmel, the School of Rock will be hosting a summer concert series that should provide a safe place for people of all ages to enjoy some great young rock musicians. Every Saturday this summer from June 10 to Aug. 15, the Three D’s School of Rock Saturday Shows: will be showing off their June 20 – Tied to Tigers young students June 27 – The Rhaspers at Three D’s July 11 – Dell Zell Pub and Café, July 18 – Like Smoke located at 13644 July 25 – Cyrus Youngman N Meridian St. and the Kingfishers No event will Aug. 1 – Fan the Flame and Landon Keller Band be held July Aug. 8 – Sale Joseph 4. Doors will Aug. 15 – Brother O Brother open at 8 p.m. *School of Rock is the and these free opening act for each show shows are ex-

pected to last until around 10 p.m. “We’re hoping this will give kids and families something fun and free to do this summer, exposing them to Indy-based bands they normally may not have been able to go see, let alone with the whole family,” said Elyse Causey, general manager of School of Rock Carmel, which is located on Range Line Road. School of Rock has gotten help from Ben Cannon at Shine Indy to help line up bands and the School of Rock is serving as the opening act every time. Shine Indy is a, “an organization made of local musicians helping other local musicians.”

Out and About: What to do and see this weekend
‘Live From New York’ – The documentary that opened the TriBeCa Film Festival this year, “Live from New York,” will debut June 12, at the Landmark Theaters Art Cinema in Keystone. What’s so special about it? The film, as described by a Carmel resident who saw it in TriBeCa is “a good review of the political aspect of Saturday Night Live through the years.” Oh, and one of its executive producers was raised in Carmel! That’s right, Emmy-award-winning costume designer, Tom Broecker, is a former Carmel resident and a huge success through his work on series such as SNL and season one of “House of Cards.” Mr. Broecker will be in Carmel late this July to do a Q&A about “Live from New York,” much like one he did at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. for his work on “House of Cards.” Come see “Live from New York” on June 12 and don’t miss Tom Broecker’s Q&A in July!

Fishers Rotary preps for June 13 Fishers on Tap By Alec Johnson news@currentincarmel.com
AT THE PALLADIUM
BEETHOVEN’S NINTH SUNDAY, JUNE 14, 8PM
Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony is considered by some as the greatest piece of music ever written. The Indianapolis Symphonic Choir joins the ISO and Krzysztof Urbański for this triumphant finale to the ISO’s Palladium Series.
For the third year in a row, the best craft breweries in the state of Indiana will present their beer for a sumdiversion mer tasting. The Fishers On TapSummer event, which is a fundraiser presented by the Fishers Rotary Club, will take place Saturday, June 13th from 4 to 8 p.m. at the City of Fishers Amphitheater. Event proceeds are given back to local service agencies and support organizations to help local youth and their families. Nineteen local craft brewers will be at this event, including Sun King, Tow Yard, Outliers and several others. Harmony Wine will provide wine for the non-beer crowd. Attendees can also sample appetizers from area restaurants like Peterson’s, Red Sake Japanese Bistro, Ruth’s Chris Steak House and Eddie Merlot’s. Live music by Phoebe and the Mojo Makers will also be provided. Ticket prices start at $20 for a designated
driver or wine-only drinkers, and then goes up to $40 for general admission. VIP tickets are $60, and people with VIP tickets get to go in for an hour before the main event starts. The VIP event starts at 4 p.m. and runs until 5 p.m., and then people with general admission tickets can go in at 5 p.m. Those with designated driver tickets will not be served alcohol, but are allowed to enjoy the food and music provided. A photo ID is required and attendees must be 21 or over. Fishers Rotary Club Membership Chair Bill Jerrow is proud to be a part of hosting this event. “It’s a great blend of us trying to do the right thing and good things for people that need help in the community, supporting a great growing Indiana business, or market, I guess, or industry, and then getting all of the nice feedback from not only the guests, but the brewers who say ‘It’s a great event, best event we go to each year, can’t wait for next year’; so, we just feel like we’ve hit the right note all around in all three areas,” Jerrow said.

The Indiana Design Center in Carmel recently opened an exhibit entitled “Kindred Spirits,” which hosted the work of art NYC-based artist Hunt Slonem and his longtime friend and fellow artist, Carmelo Blandino. The exhibit, presented by Joan Coats Eckert and Dianne Wright of Coats-Wright Art Design, features Slonem’s “Bunny Wall”, which he says represents his Zodiac sign and his love of nature and animals. His new painting has also been transplanted on Groundworks, a new Lee Jofa brand of wallcovering and fabric. When it comes to his style, Slonem says he’s been called everything from a pop artist to a neoexpressionist, but likes the term exotica. “My focus is on cultures, foreign cultures and well … my work is teeming with spirituality that is seen or unseen,” Slonem said. Blandino’s work is a mix of portraits and landscapes. His paintings, “Operetta I” and “Strawberry,” are featured in the exhibit. All of his 2014 paintings, he says, were inspired by symphonic music. His artistic style has been described as “lyrical abstractionism,” according to a writer

who interviewed him. His paintings have a contemporary feel to it, he said, and he likes to use thick brush strokes. Also, he doesn’t like to start over if he messes up, but rather he works around it. “I just keep going and going,” Blandino said,
referring to how he painted “Operetta I,” “and suddenly, poof, it just appears. It’s like life. It’s my metaphor for life. You just keep going. You don’t remove what you’ve done. You can’t.” The exhibit runs through June 13 in Suite 122.

Tickets are $45 which includes two drinks and food. Food will be provided by Jonathon Byrd’s catering. Guests can nosh on high-end hors d’ouevres while mingling.

wine lovers there will be a wine pull. Guests pay to play and draw a bottle of wine without seeing it beforehand. “It’s kind of like a blind pull. You pay the fee and then pull the wrapped up bottle. We have some really nice bottles of wine in that,” said Hook. The Mad Hatter will be present to interact with guests and along with some of the Jr. Civic members. Participants can have their picture taken with various characters from AIW. Awards will be given out to former Jr. Civic members and those attendees who have been long-time supporters. “It’s going to be so fun,” said Hook. For more information visit civictheatre.org.

Turn back the clock on your skin Commentary by Corey Black Seeing the effects of aging in the mirror? We all know it’s something, like it or not, we can’t stop but there are nutrition healthy and natural ways we can slow and even reverse some of the effects of aging of our skin. Along with a healthy diet, protecting oneself from the sun’s rays, regular and restorative sleep and a few key supplements can help you fight the aging process. To reverse the effects of aging, you need to slow the breakdown of collagen and promote skin cell growth and repair. Combating oxidative stress and free radicals will slow the damage to our skin cells. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is a fatty acid that is effective for promoting healthy skin growth. It is hard to come by in our diet, and some natural sources are primrose oil and borage oil and can be obtained in supplement form. This is a healthy type of Omega-6 fatty acid that actually reduces inflammation and also has heart health benefits as well. Idebenone is a derivative of CoQ10 and is thought to have similar effects in that it stim-
ulates the mitochondria of cells, reducing the rate of degradation and decline. This supports cellular health and reduces the degeneration that occurs with age. And often overlooked, but one of the best supplements for skin health is vitamin C. This vitamin plays a key role in the production of collagen, the protein that gives your skin elasticity. It’s the loss of elasticity that leads to wrinkles. Ensuring you have sufficient levels of vitamin C can help in reversing the aging process. Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant that helps reverse the effects of the sun and our environment on the aging of our skin. It can also be applied topically to specifically target your skills cells and supporting skin health. While you can’t stop the hands of time, it doesn’t mean you can’t put up a fight and look your best at any age. Cory Black is the owner of PointBlank Nutrition in Carmel.

Tune up to avoid health crashes Commentary by Stephanie Cohen Men, do you ever check under the hood of your car? It’s how you protect your investment, extend your men’s health vehicle’s life and performance and avoid crashes. But when it comes to checking under your own hood, your health, that is where many come up short. Beyond the usual risk factors of obesity, smoking, high cholesterol and diabetes – there’s the dreaded hazard no one likes to talk about and happens to be my specialty: cancer. The top three cancers in men are lung, prostate and colon cancers. Lung cancer has a strong environmental component: smoking. The other two often hinge on genetics. Having multiple relatives with cancer or one relative with multiple cancers are red flags. Fear often keeps men from uncovering their risks. Many think that if they feel fine, it’s best to not look for trouble. What they may not realize is that finding something early may make a big difference in the stage when cancer is identified, and, ultimately, survival. With colon cancer, for instance, you can remove a growth and stop cancer from happening. Others are concerned about the cost of

There will also be the chance to test drive a Tesla Model S and meet an Indiana Pacers player. For risks with a strong genetic influence (like cancer), my advice is simple: Have regular health screenings, learn your family history and share it with your physician. Stephanie Cohen, MS, LCGC, is genetic counselor at St.Vincent. For more information on genetic counseling, health screenings and the St.Vincent Men’s Health TuneUp visit stvincent.org/fishers.

How one local biz is giving back Graeter’s Ice Cream to join Nash By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com
By Michelle Williams news@currentincarmel.com Within a month of moving in, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang Salon has already hosted the first charitable event at its new philanthropy downtown Carmel location. The salon held a cut-a-thon and silent auction on May 31 to benefit Kathy Sumner, the mother of founding member Stephanie O’Hara. Owner Tanya Foster explained that the salon hosts a similar benefit each year, with proceeds benefitting various causes in the past. “We just didn’t know we would be doing this for Stephanie’s mom,” Foster said. “We spend so much time helping other people, and now one of our own needs help. The response has been overwhelming.” “They’re very good about doing things in the community to benefit people,” Sumner said. “I feel so blessed that they would want to do this for me.” O’Hara said that she learned in a companywide meeting that the salon’s community committee had decided to benefit her mother in 2015. “I accepted on her behalf, because I wasn’t sure if she would,” O’Hara said. With a tear

in her eye, she added, “I didn’t know it would mean as much to them as it means to me.” Sumner discovered in October after a 20 year remission that she was re-diagnosed with Stage Four Metastatic Breast Cancer. “I hadn’t even thought about it since remissions usually happen more quickly than 20 years. It’s been tougher this time,” she said. At the end of the day, the KKBB cut-a-thon raised over $11,000 to financially support Sumner’s battle with cancer.
Graeter’s Ice Cream, a Cincinnati-based brand with a Midwest following, is opening its third central Indiana expanding location in Carmel at the newly constructed The Nash building, part of Carmel City Center. The family-owned company started in Cincinnati 145 years ago and Indianapolisregion residents know the ice cream from the locations in Fishers at 8367 Ambleside Ct. or in the Butler-Tarkington neighborhood at 5560 N. Illinois St. The newest location will be owned by a family, brothers Jim and Jay Tedesco. The family owns 11 locations between Indianapolis and Louisville. “With the support and acclaim we have received in our Butler-Tarkington and Fishers locations, we know it will be success here,” says Jim Tedesco, owner of the franchise in Louisville. The Nash, a three-story, $10 million mixeduse building, is just south of Phase I of City
Center on the west side of Range Line Road. It contains 31 one, two and three bedroom apartments on the second and third floors and 8,000 square feet of commercial space at street level. The Art of Home & Kitchen, a home lifestyle retailer, will open in The Nash in June. “With the Monon Trail proximate to The Nash, it will be a great stop off of the Monon,” said Melissa Averitt, senior vice president of marketing and sales at Pedcor. Graeter’s is known for making small batches of handcraft ice cream and gelato, just two gallons at a time. One of the popular flavors is Black Raspberry Chip with big chocolate chunks. Most of the ice cream is made out of Louisville and then transported to locations. The new location will be open Monday to Thursday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. with extended hours until 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and Sundays from noon to 10 p.m. Carmel location is planned to open in late August/ early September.

‘Lead’ and ‘led’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Dear Jordan, I look forward to your column in The Southside grammar guy Times every week. I especially enjoy your sense of humor and the fact that you don’t take grammar too seriously. Please do address the difference between the homonyms ‘lead’ and ‘led.’ They are used incorrectly more and more often, as you did in your May 7 - 13 column. You are so rarely, if ever, inaccurate, I forgive you!” – (Petra Ritchie) Answer: You know, I put those mistakes in my columns just so clever readers like you will catch them and give me more fodder to write about. (No, not really. Great catch, Petra!) The mistake at hand here is mixing up the proper past tense of the verb “lead” – meaning to guide, especially by going in advance – with the element lead (which, incidentally, has the best Latin name: plumbum).
Dispatches
“Lead” is an irregular verb, so its past tense isn’t “leaded,” but “led.” The trick isn’t in remembering that it’s irregular, though, but how it’s irregular, because it conjugates differently than “read,” which is spelled the same in the past tense, but pronounced differently. Unfortunately, Word’s little squiggly lines aren’t much help here, because “leaded” is a word in its own right meaning “covered, weighted with or containing lead.” Why they didn’t go with “plumbumed,” I’ll never know. So there’s no trick on this one – you’ve just got to remember that “lead” becomes “led” in the past tense. Even your friendly neighborhood Grammar Guy needs a refresher on it from time to time, though, so you can rest easy knowing we’re all in this together.

Cape of Good Hope from Cape Point, South Africa (Photo by Don Knebel)
Legendary Cape of Good Hope Commentary by Don Knebel Cape Point, a UNESCO World Heritage site situated 30 miles south of Cape Town, South Africa, offers an extraordinary travel view of the famous Cape of Good Hope, which is neither the southernmost point of Africa nor the point where oceans meet. It is, however, the home of a macabre legend. In 1487, Portuguese explorer Bartholomew Diaz and his crew sailed south from Lisbon along the western coast of Africa, hoping to find a sea route to India. Diaz managed to sail east after reaching the southern coast of Africa, but his frightened sailors refused to continue. On the return trip, Diaz encountered a rocky headland jutting into the ocean that he named “The Cape of Storms” because of violent weather in the area. His patron, King John II, renamed the point the “Cape of Good Hope” because it proved sailing to India was feasible. The king’s optimism was justified. In 1498, Vasco de Gama “rounded the Cape of Good Hope” and continued until he reached India. The notion of “rounding the Cape” has long suggested that the Cape of Good Hope is at
the southern tip of Africa. It is not. To the east, little-known Cape Agulhas extends further south. Cape Agulhas is also where the warm currents of the Indian Ocean bump up against the cooler currents of the South Atlantic, creating turbulent weather. Cape Point tourists, having never heard of Cape Agulhas, buy T-shirts incorrectly saying they have seen “where two oceans meet.” To reach the hilltop offering the best view of the Cape of Good Hope, visitors to Cape Point ride “The Flying Dutchman,” a funicular named for a legendary Dutch ship reportedly lost off the Cape of Good Hope during a storm. According to a 17th century tale, the ship and its ghostly crew are destined to sail the oceans forever, foretelling doom to anyone catching sight of the glowing ship. After seeing the Cape of Good Hope, the adventuresome can look for 250 species of birds and several troops of baboons. They can also try to avoid spotting the Flying Dutchman.

Try a breezy screened-in porch addition this year Commentary by Larry Greene PROJECT OVERVIEW: This home, located in the Sandstone subdivision in Fishers, was built in 1997. “The deck on our house did not provide a true outblueprint for door living experience. We wanted to add a improvement screened porch that gave the feeling of being outside without the nuisance of intense sun and pesky bugs.” DESIGN CHALLENGES: “We started with the intent of placing the new porch off the back of the house and we wanted it big enough to fit all six grandchildren.” Due to building setback regulations and roofline complications, the new porch would not fit off the back of the house. The south side of the house was found to be the best option. INTERIOR FINISH: Once the foundation and structural framing was complete, pressure treated deck boards were installed. To create improved access in-and-out of the house, the existing window left of the fireplace was converted to fit a new exterior glass door. EZE-Breeze windows were chosen due to their ability to open three of the four lightweight, vinyl-glazed panels to create an
before & after
outdoors feel. The bead board ceiling and cedar trim throughout the interior of the porch was painted to match the existing house trim color. EXTERIOR FINISH: Skirting was added to conceal the exposed bottom portion of the deck. Hardie exterior panels and cedar trim was installed throughout the perimeter of the porch to tie in with the existing house. Shingles and aluminum gutters matching the profile and size of the existing were installed. The exterior was then painted to complete the
RESULT: “The new porch actually allows us to enjoy our backyard now. We use it to entertain, watch TV, read books and relax. We especially love enjoying it at nighttime.”
final look. ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS: To create a unique and custom look, a bump-out with a bay window was incorporated into the design of the porch. Sconce lighting and a ceiling fan on a dimmable switch were installed to add function and elegance to the new 350 SF porch.
