happy to work with the City of Carmel to develop sensible regulations.” The Humane Society for Hamilton County did not respond to a request for comment as of press time. The city updated its animal welfare ordinance in 2020 to prohibit pet stores from selling animals obtained from puppy mills. Aasen said the proposed updates would make it easier for the city to enforce the ordinance, as code enforcement officers can more quickly tell if a business is selling cats and dogs than determine from where they obtained them. Other Indiana municipalities that have banned the sale of cats and dogs at pet stores include Columbus, Bloomington, East Chicago and St. Joseph County. The council was set to introduce the ordinance at its June 20 meeting. Residents are encouraged to contact Aasen at aaasen@ carmel.in.gov to share questions, concerns and feedback.

Indy Honor Flight takes Carmel vets to D.C. By Will Riddell news@currentincarmel.com Indiana veterans from across the state flew to Washington, D.C., May 21 as a part of the 34th Indy Honor Flight. Carmel veterans included MILITARY Dwight Gossett, Richard Killen, Richard Markoff, Andrew Prather and Michael Seeman. Also on the trip was Gary Lawrence, a Carmel veteran who has been volunteering with Indy Honor Flight since 2012. He was joined by Carmel Fire Dept. Chief David Haboush, who was serving as Markoff’s guardian. The role of the guardian is to assist the veteran during the trip. Coincidentally, Seeman and Lawrence live in the same neighborhood as Haboush. “It was a crazy small world (that day),” Haboush said. The Honor Flight Network was founded in 2005. It provides free trips to Washington, D.C., for veterans from across the U.S. Lawrence, who served as a bus captain on the trip, said the veterans had a busy day with stops at the Washington Monument and several memorials, including the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery. Lawrence served in the U.S. Air Force from 1960 to 1966. He spent time in South Korea as an airborne linguist. Since he

began volunteering with Indy Honor Flight, Lawrence has dedicated countless hours of his time and energy to the organization. “This is my passion,” Lawrence said. Indy Honor Flight offers trips to veterans who served in World War II, Korea and Vietnam. Lawrence said combat experience and overseas deployment are not required for qualification. Any veteran is welcome to apply if he or she was in active-duty service during one of those wars. Indy Honor Flight aims to keep in touch with the veterans even after their one-day trip to Washinton, D.C. The process of staying connected usually comes in the form of breakfasts and luncheons, Lawrence said. A reunion is scheduled in August to reunite veterans who have been on an Indy Honor Flight. Flights were canceled in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Indy Honor Flight No. 33, which took place April 16, was the first flight since the pandemic began. Lawrence is delighted that flights have resumed. “I absolutely love what we do for these guys and gals,” Lawrence said. Learn more at indyhonorflight.org.

Carmel could lessen construction noise on weekends By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com
Carmel residents who live near buildings under construction may soon lose a little less sleep. CITY NEWS The city council was set to introduce an amendment to its noise ordinance June 20 that would push back the time for construction noise to begin from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m. on weekends and holidays. Construction noise must end by 9 p.m. every day, which will be unchanged. Councilor Jeff Worrell, a sponsor of the
ordinance, said he’s been receiving complaints about the early start time on weekends from neighbors of an ongoing project, and with other developments expected to begin soon he said it made sense to consider the changes now. “Our law doesn’t distinguish between weekends and weekdays,” he said. “7 a.m. seems reasonable to me on a Tuesday, but on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays we’re (proposing) to bump it to 8 a.m.” Another proposed update would push back the start time for rubbish collection using mechanical equipment on weekends and holidays from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m.

New tech detects potholes By Taylor Dixon news@currentincarmel.com The City of Carmel is using new technology to detect potholes and other road maintenance problems. CITY NEWS StreetScan cars mounted with sensing technology are driving through town to detect potholes, cracks and other road issues that used to be discovered through visual inspections alone. The technology helps the street department know which streets need to be prioritized and repaired. “The condition of our streets is something that residents and businesses do not think about on a daily basis until it becomes a problem,” Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard stated. “Neglected roads can damage cars and delivery vehicles and hinder commerce overall. This is why we work hard to stay ahead of the problem and put money in the budget each year to repave roads that have fallen below our acceptable standards.” The city is spending $68,000 on a fouryear contract with StreetScan, which includes two full scans of city and access to its database.
A StreetScan vehicle uses mounted technology to detect potholes and other road issues. (Photo courtesy of the City of Carmel)
The city uses the PASER rating scale that rates a road on a 1 to 10 scale, with 10 being the best condition. The city will focus on streets with a 3 or lower rating. Scanning started June 6 in central Carmel, and crews plan to finish scanning the city within two weeks, according to city spokesman Dan McFeely. When all the information is uploaded into the StreetScan system, the street department will visually assess the streets with lower rankings. The street department will then use the list of most affected areas to assign summer projects based on available funds as they plan to fix the most severe cases across the city.

Carmel adds Italian sister city PRESENTS
news@currentincarmel.com The City of Carmel has entered a new Sister City relationship with the City of Cortona, Arezzo, Italy. CITY NEWS Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard met with Cortona Mayor Luciano Meoni in Italy last month to sign the official agreement designed to promote international goodwill, understanding, student educational exchanges and expanded business relationships between the two cities and their respective nations. “It is important, especially during these times, for communities across the globe to continue to talk, get to know each other and learn from each other about history and culture,” Brainard said. “Carmel is a very new community and Cortona is very old, but both of our cities strive to embrace and learn from each other the time-tested ways to build and maintain a great city.” This is Carmel’s fourth international Sister City. Earlier this year, the city entered into a similar relationship with the city of Jelgava, Latvia. Previously, Carmel established relationships with Kawachinagano, Osaka, Japan and Xiangyang, Hubei, China.

Cortona is in the Tuscany area of Italy that enjoys landscapes of low mountains and lakes. It is known in the area as a city that appreciates the art of fine food and wines, in addition to beautiful art. Cortona is enclosed by stone walls dating back to Etruscan and Roman times and sits on a hill 1,968 feet above sea level. Carmel is looking for volunteers to serve on a new not-for-profit Sister Cities Committee for Cortona, Italy. Learn more at carmel. in.gov.

The Parent Project aims to curb destructive behavior By Les Morris news@currentincarmel.com Being an effective parent has always been a challenge. Today, that’s perhaps truer than it’s ever been. COUNTY Rob Evans is a Hamilton County probation officer and, along with fellow probation officer Sheri Ross, leads The Parent Project, an 11-week course for parents of strong-willed and outof-control children. The program is designed to curb destructive teen behaviors like poor school attendance, alcohol and drug use, runaways and violence. “These parents are doing a lot of good things. The problem is that no other generation of parents has ever dealt with some of the issues we’re dealing with now such as social media, cellphones, designer drugs and vaping,” Evans said. The Parent Project has been offered to Hamilton County parents for more than 15
years and started its summer program in early June. The class meets once a week for three hours and is presented entirely on Zoom. Evans is quick to point out it is not simply a lecture format. Participants are divided into groups of between eight and 10 parents so they can learn from each other. Evans believes it is this support which is the most beneficial aspect of the class. Indeed, the groups become so valuable that they continue indefinitely long after The Parent Project class has ended, with some going strong two years after the initial class. Parents are given concrete prevention and intervention strategies that can be put into immediate use within the home. “We have seen real transformation in families,” said Evans, who has taught the class since 2013. The next 11-week session of The Parent Project begins Sept. 6. The program fee is $80 per family. For more, visit bit.ly/3GYK6jG.

Guerin Catholic High School girls lacrosse coach Brian Billand knew battling Carmel again in the state championSPORTS ship was going to be a grind. Guerin had slipped past the three-time defending state champions by one point in the regular season. “Our goal was to win the draw controls and stop their fast breaks,” Billand said. “We also wanted to slow down our offense to limit their possessions. In the first half, we were a little tight and not running our offense the way we should have. In the second half, we controlled the ball and looked for high-quality shots. We were able to do pretty well until the last two minutes when they scored two quick goals to tie the game. We were able to get a go-ahead goal in the last minute and then just controlled it until time ran out.” Mariah Ross, a Carmel resident who recently graduated, scored the game-winning goal for Guerin, who edged Carmel 7-6 in the Indiana High School Lacrosse Association’s Class 2A state title game at Heritage

Christian. “It was a surreal experience that I am so glad to have shared with such a talented team and amazing coaches,” Ross said. Billand, a Carmel resident, said he believes he had the team that could make a deep run in the tournament. “Unfortunately, we got knocked out in the first round of (last year’s) sectionals,” Billand said. “That left a bad taste in our mouths and we were determined to not let that happen again this year. The occasion marked the first time a girls team from Guerin won a state title.

2011 DADillac For Sale On March 17, 2022, our dad was called home to begin his eternal life free of pain and illness. What he left behind was a family who loved him, friends that will miss him and a legacy of memories that we can never forget. One of his items for which we are seeking a new home is his car that he cherished. He owned a 2011 Cadillac DTS which was his pride and joy. Having grown up and raised his family in a town dominated by General Motors, his goal was to “Climb the Ladder” as he would say regarding the GM family of cars. In the 1960s, he kept the garage occupied with Chevys and Pontiacs. In 1973, he graduated to Oldsmobiles, and they dominated the rest of the ‘70s. Always, he kept his eye on the Cadillac one day being the ultimate prize. Then, in 1985 he made it to the top when he was able to buy a used 1982 Eldorado. From that day forward, the only car he steered was a Cadillac. He liked the big ones, primarily Sedan Deville because, “You are always safer in a big car.” He liked to run them through car washes regularly because “A clean car always seems to run better.” We have had his 2011 DTS Sedan checked out by a master technician and a local tire store in Carmel. Both said that this would be a good used car for anyone looking for size and a little old-school styling. Includes Dad’s 2006 Rand McNally Road Atlas at no additional cost.

Take it to the hoop Commentary by Lorene Burkhart It could be described as an intentional life. When the president of Purdue University, Mitch Daniels, recently PLAIN TALK addressed the graduates at their commencement ceremonies, he spoke of their uniqueness. He challenged them to not let anyone put a label on them and lump them into a group but to maintain their individuality. He emphasized their “you-ness” and that they should not become one dimensional, because there is not another you anywhere on the planet. What an exciting challenge for these young people to realize that they are beginning their adult lives with purpose, as well as opportunity. In another speech I heard Allison Barber, the president and CEO of the Indiana Fever basketball team, challenge the audience to “take it to the hoop,” meaning that as individuals we have the wherewithal to guide our own lives. It was a clever analogy but with the same intent as the Purdue speech. In contrast to these inspiring messages I received an invitation to attend a panel presentation where the speakers will dis-
cuss imposter syndrome. It is described as an internal experience of self-doubt and believing you are not as competent as others perceive you to be. It is characterized by chronic feelings of fraudulence, incompetence and inadequacy. How do we fall into that trap? I’ve been fortunate that I’ve never felt these feelings, but how sad that there are those who feel like frauds. It’s one thing to know what you don’t know (I’ve had plenty of those), but faking it certainly isn’t going to help your self confidence. What is your purpose in life? Maybe now is a good time to bring it forward? Discussing this concept with young people might help them develop their self confidence as they make decisions that seem scary to them. Celebrate your individuality and know that you are unique. Take it to the hoop!

Couple retires to Carmel after spending careers promoting exotic cars, Hollywood stars By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The last several years for Joe Molina have felt a bit like a Hollywood script. And he’d know, as the 67-year-old spent most of his life in Los Angeles, where he founded a public relations agency that specialized in promoting high-end and exotic automobiles, including through blockbuster movies. So, when it came time to retire, it felt a bit like a plot twist when he decided to ditch the L.A. traffic and threat of earthquakes and fire and move to Carmel, a place where he had almost no ties. His wife, Beth, is a native Hoosier, and he had visited the city during trips to Indiana to visit her family. Between the Palladium, Christkindlmarkt and neighborhoods decked out for the holidays, it was like nothing he’d ever seen before. “They call it a set in L.A., but it’s real here,” Joe said. The Molinas made their cross-country move in November 2021, filling their new house in the Jackson’s Grant neighborhood with their modern art collection and surrounding it with unique cars. It didn’t take long for the Hoosier state to feel like home for Joe, but that may be because it already held a special place in his heart. In an earlier act, it had played a key role in launching his Hollywood career in the first place.
HOOSIER ROOTS Nearly 50 years ago, Joe arrived at Fort Benjamin Harrison in Indianapolis to study journalism while serving in the U.S. Army. At the same time, Beth attended high school at Lawrence Central, but their paths wouldn’t cross until decades later in Los Angeles. Joe began covering the rock ’n’ roll beat for the Army, interviewing legends such as John Lennon, Elton John, David Bowie and Rod Stewart. In 1975, while traveling with the band KISS, he decided that he’d rather be involved directly with the artists and organizing their events rather than cover-
MODERN ART COLLECTION Joe and Beth Molina enjoy collecting modern art. Some of their favorite pieces are:

ing them. He decided his next career move would be to public relations. “My career started here in Indiana,” Joe said. At about the same time, he began making connections with exotic and luxury car collectors and dealers and realized he could make a living promoting them to the public. So, in 1977 he founded JMPR Public Relations in Los Angeles. Joe spent more than 40 years running JMPR, working with celebrities such as Jay Leno, Tim Allen and Rod Stewart and helping promote automotive-themed movies, such as “Days of Thunder” starring Tom Cruise. He loved living in L.A. and knew it was one of the few places in the world where he could successfully run his niche agency. In 2013, Joe’s first wife, Carol, died of breast cancer. Beth, a Herron School of Art graduate who worked in L.A. producing graphics and logos for major awards shows and other events, ran in the same social circles as the Molinas and was devastated when she lost her good friend. Eventually, Joe and Beth started dating and later found out that Carol had told her siblings that Beth might be a good match for Joe after she passed. “It made us feel like we had her blessing,” Beth said. Joe and Beth wed in 2016 at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in downtown Indianapolis, another key turning point — that occurred in Indiana — in the script.

‘AN UNDISCOVERED GEM’ Joe thought he’d miss some aspects of living in L.A., but so far that hasn’t been the case. He’s made it through his first Indiana winter — one of his biggest concerns — and is preparing to experience a humid Hoosier summer. Kristi Lee, best known as part of nationally syndicated The Bob & Tom Show, has known Beth since before she moved to California, and she got to know Joe while visiting her friend in L.A. She never expected the couple to move to Indiana but played a key role in planting the idea in their minds and taking them to visit unique sites in Central Indiana when they visited. A lifelong Hoosier, Lee said she expects others to follow in the Molina’s footsteps. “We’ve always been a flyover city, so people in L.A. and New York never gave us
a chance,” said Lee, a Zionsville resident. “I think once they come here, it’s like, ‘Oh, my, there’s a lot to do, it’s a good bang for the buck, it’s a great quality of life.’’ Joe said he and Beth expect to return to Los Angeles regularly to visit friends and their old stomping grounds, but it’s not home anymore. Carmel is where they plan to spend their final acts. “Carmel is almost an undiscovered gem for people outside of Indiana, and they’re going to hear more about it,” Joe said. “We’re here for the duration. This is not a stopover for us.” ON THE COVER: Beth and Joe Molina moved to the Jackson’s Grant neighborhood in late 2021 after retiring from careers in Los Angeles. (Photo by Ann Marie Shambaugh)

ESSAY
HUMOR
False alarms?
The truth of it is
Commentary by Terry Anker
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
“This is so very important that nothing else matters! Our ends assuredly justify the means. We are smart people. We have spent some time thinking about this problem. And we know that we have the only correct solution.” So goes the narrative. Agree with us, or those opposing are open to all manner of attack, polite or otherwise. Many imagine that others, with differing points of view, are stupid, evil and deserving of rebuke. It is all so very convenient to dismiss them, to vilify those who are otherwise not villains. Truly, there are a handful of critical realities where personal space must be allowed. But do we often restrain the behavior of other adults only to force them to conform with our current state of mind? History is littered with tales of our certainty gone wrong. Countless heretics died only to be proven correct only a few years later, small consolation. Still, we collectively tolerate the intolerance. Social media is rife with the clarion call: This is so important that the rules don’t apply; I’m so important that the rules don’t apply; I’m in such an emotional state that the rules don’t apply. Even so, isn’t there some value in adhering to a minimum standard? When are we able to suspend social order? How extreme must be the case? Have we slid too deep into the morass when we each decide what we can say to others and not to what we will allow them to say to us? When words are called violence and legislative votes are called murder, how do we confront actual violence and actual murderers? Are they the same thing? If we find ourselves always on high alert, when do we start ignoring the sounding of the alarm? Are we destined to miss a genuine warning?
Summer is in full swing, and I for one am already doing my darndest to hide from my children. I know, I know — some of you are already screaming, “You’re such a terrible mother!” But really, I’m just being honest, and I think most parents will appreciate my perspective: It’s all fun and games until it’s not, somewhere around mid-June. Sure, those first couple of weeks are grand. My coeds are home from school, we’re enjoying the laidback vibes of late mornings and no real schedules, and the flighty Indiana weather is finally cooperating. Our six-pack is generally kind to one another, and in the spirit of family reunited, we ignore the irritating idiosyncrasies of each other. But like our usually low Meijer bill, harmony will not last. Now, all I can do is focus on the noise and the mess and the never-ending loads of laundry. I get swept up in their sibling drama and inevitable boredom and pleas for cash. I can’t get a single moment to myself because someone, somewhere always seems to need me. Why? Did I not raise you to be independent? Go. Away. Too soon I find myself longing for August, when my time and my house will once again become my own. When communication with my darling offspring will equate to periodic check-ins via FaceTime. When I can return to an “outof-sight, out-of-mind” mentality and not obsess over the occasional bad choices my young adults will most certainly make. When a half-gallon of milk has a decent chance of expiring in the fridge. Terrible mother? Probs. But at least I’m honest. Peace out.

READER’S VIEW
There was no perfect era Editor, When we reflect on an earlier time in American history, we know there is no perfect era. When Americans came home from World War II, we saw financial prosperity and a baby boom, but in the 1950s Americans also experienced: • Rock Hudson (and many others) hiding their sexual preferences. • Sen. McCarthy and his paranoia with Communism caused a false narrative that disrupted American lives. • Women did not have access to birth control or choice. • The polio epidemic was raging, causing fear among America’s parents. • Blacks and whites could not sit side by side at a dimestore counter, stay at any hotel, sit anywhere on a bus. • Poverty was rampant in many areas — especially in rural areas. • The Korean War led to more loss of lives.
• We moved into the Cold War with the Soviet Union with an increase in nuclear arms. President Biden’s powerful message in his inaugural address made it clear that Americans can overcome any of our fears, our misinformed judgments and our problems when we work together. He said, “This is America’s Day. This is democracy’s day. A day of history and hope. Of renewal and resolve.” As we research candidates running for local, state and federal offices, take time to ask yourself which candidates stand for policies best for our country. Take time to consider candidates who do not spew fear, but rather hope, support unity and not division, candidates who support programs that elevate America as a beacon of justice for the world, candidates who fight for justice for all.

Sisters to open alcohol-free shop THE MARKET IS STILL HOT By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Sisters Andrea Marley and Kristin Patrick have always wanted to have their own store. They saw an COMING SOON opportunity to do that after they both stopped drinking alcohol in the last year. Patrick said they saw an article in Vogue about booze-free bottle shops, and they decided to bring one to Carmel. “We saw there were stores dedicated to this burgeoning (offering of) alcohol-free products,” Patrick said. “We’re trying to replicate the success of other stores in the country. The whole idea is the store has just non-alcoholic alternatives, alcohol-free wine, beer and spirits.” Patrick said the stars were aligning for the right opportunity. The sisters, who are Carmel High School graduates, will open Loren’s AF Beverages, 5790 E. Main St., Suite 150, in mid-August. Loren’s AF Beverages, which will be open Wednesdays through Sundays, will be the first alcohol-free bottle shop in Indiana. The name is a tribute to their father, Loren Marley, who died March 15. “That’s where we got the confidence to do this,” Patrick said of their dad. “He’s always been our biggest cheerleader and believed in us. He wanted us to try new things and have new experiences. He was a great businessman himself.” Patrick, a Fishers resident who graduated from CHS in 1996, works as an instructional

coach, specializing in technology, at Noblesville Schools. Marley, a Westfield resident who works as a director of operations for a tech startup, graduated from CHS in 1998. Patrick said there are not a lot of alcohol-free products in Indiana. “That’s been part of our market research, going to different grocery stores and box stores and seeing what’s available.” Patrick said. “The answer is not much. The alcohol-free bottle shops are thriving.” Patrick said many people have decided to go alcohol-free in the last year. “There have been a lot of news stories about people reevaluating their relationship with alcohol,” Patrick said. “During the pandemic, alcohol use soared.”

YAP students show versatility in cabaret show By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Abigail Judy is finding a lot to like about her first Young Artists Program experience with Civic Theatre. PERFORMANCE “What I love most is getting the opportunity to work with such great directors and meeting new people,” said Judy, who will be a Carmel High School junior in August. The YAP’s “REVUE!” is set for 6 and 8 p.m. June 28 at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. “My favorite number that I’ve learned so far is ‘Holding Out for a Hero,’” Judy said. “The music is super fun and we do a lot of really great harmonies. The people in this number are super fun to work with and I think it will be one to the best.” One challenge is learning the numbers because rehearsals didn’t start until earlier this month. “It takes a lot of hard work and commitment to learn everything and put it all together in such a short amount of time,” she said. Anne Beck serves as YAP director. Johnna Tavianini is the music director and Kenny Shepard is the director. All three are Ball State University colleagues. “Kenny and Johnna are a power couple when it comes to putting this show together,” Beck said. “They are both a wealth of knowledge of musical theater songs from all kinds of shows. They always put together an amazing mix of songs people know along with ones not so well known to educate the audience and enlighten us with great material not as well known. “This year they did it again and Johnna also has put together some fabulous mash-ups. She is extraordinary at that.” Beck said there is an array of soloists in this year’s cast of 13. “So, it is an exciting year for the show chock full of such great talent,” Beck said. Tavianini said Shepard came up with creative questions for cast members based on some overlying, universal themes that all have to do with being teenagers.

“By using their responses, he crafted a personalized script with the music that we’ve chosen supporting the stories that our cast members are going to share with the audience,” Tavianini said. This is Tavianini’s second year as music director for “REVUE!” “This year and last year I have been just blown away with the work ethic of the young cast and am immensely proud to see the steady growth in each of them as performers,” Tavianini said. “I love being able to set the bar high and getting to take them all by the hand and help them get there.” Tavianini said part of her job as music director is to make sure that all cast members sing music that supports their stories. “I love writing the arrangements and personalizing the music to serve the group in front of me,” Tavianini said. Tavianini and Shepard worked together for the first time last year on “REVUE!” “We are all so lucky to have Johnna on board,” Shepard said. “She really is a genius at making these young artists sound like stars while propelling their unique
stories through music.” Having only 10 rehearsals is a challenge to learn all the songs and monologues, Shepard said. “Another challenge, which I love, is making sure each artist’s voice is heard and each story is told authentically,” he said. “All 13 of them answered a long list of questions for me, and I took their experiences about social media, dating, family, friendships, bullying and other topics and wrote a script, often using their words verbatim as monologues.” Shepard said the song “Children Will Listen” from “Into The Woods” is powerful. “The lyrics and Johnna’s arrangement work so well to further the stories many of them are telling,” Shepard said. “These performers are very brave sharing personal experiences about racism, dating as a member of the transgender community and being bullied. I respect their honesty and openness more than I can say. The social media section is also an eye-opener to me. These teenagers communicate and validate each other in ways that are so foreign to other generations.”
Actors Theatre of Indiana Live will present Darrin Murrell and John Vessels in “Just A Couple of Fools: A Vaudeville Cabaret!” at 7:30 p.m. June 23 at Feinstein’s Cabaret at the Hotel Carmichael in Carmel. For more, visit feinsteinshc.com.
ATI Live! presents vaudeville cabaret editorial@youarecurrent.com Actors Theatre of Indiana is bringing Darrin Murrell and John Vessels back to the stage in Carmel, but this time on the Feinstein’s stage at Hotel Carmichael.

Murrell and Vessels are veterans of musical theater and comedy stages locally, regionally, and nationally. “JUST A COUPLE OF FOOLS: A Vaudeville Cabaret!” is set for 7:30 p.m. June 23.

Mystery spoof set at Red Barn By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com “Murdered to Death” suits Luke McLaughlin just fine. “I enjoy the murder mysTHEATER tery genre, and it has a comedic spin to it as well,” said McLaughlin, who is directing the production at the Red Barn Summer Theatre. “I enjoy putting those two things together. As an English teacher, there are a lot of references to classic literature and Agatha Christie that I appreciate and enjoy.” “Murdered to Death” runs June 22 through July 2 at the Frankfort venue. The show is a spoof of the Agatha Christie whodunit genre set in an English Manor. “It’s a fun script, a nice mix of mystery and comedy,” said McLaughlin, a Frankfort resident who teaches at Clinton Prairie High School. “I’ve seen it on a stage before, and when I saw it, I thought this is a great show I wanted to either direct or be in one day.” McLaughlin is pulling double duty. McLaughlin, Red Barn’s associate artistic director, is one of the two male leads in the

Michael Taylor, Red Barn’s artistic director and a Frankfort High School theater teacher, directed the high school production.

A history of Rome’s obelisks Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel. com. You may contact him at editorial@youarecurrent.com.
Commentary by Don Knebel Today, in the continuing series about Rome, we look at its obelisks, eight of which have connections to TRAVEL three religious traditions. More than 4,000 years ago, Egyptians began carving obelisks, weighing up to 400 tons and standing up to 150 feet high, from single blocks of granite. Egyptian temples featured two matching obelisks at the entrances, their gradually sloping sides and pyramidal tops symbolizing the divine connection between Egyptian pharaohs and the sun god. When the Romans gained control of Egypt in 30 B.C., they began taking down the obelisks and transporting them on specially built ships to Rome, where they reerected them with an ingenious system of ropes and pulleys. The first obelisk taken to Rome was erected by Emperor Augustus at the center of Circus Maximus, symbolizing the divine connection between Augustus and the Roman gods. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, all but one of the Egyptian obelisks eventually toppled and broke apart. Beginning in the 16th century, popes

restored and moved eight obelisks brought from Egypt and topped them with Christian crosses and symbols of the pope. The best known is the 84-foot-tall obelisk now in St. Peter’s Square, the only one that never toppled. The largest Egyptian obelisk, about 150 feet tall and the last to be brought to Rome, is now located across from the Archbasilica of Saint John Lateran. Another Egyptian obelisk is now located in Piazza del Ro-
tonda, just outside Rome’s famous domed Pantheon. Others are located in Piazza di Monte Citorio, Piazza di Santa Maria sopra Minerva, in front of the Palazzo Massimo alle Terme and at the Villa Celimontana. Five other obelisks in Rome, including the one in Piazza Navona, were created by Romans using Egyptian models. The next time you visit Rome, you might enjoy a walking trip to find its obelisks.
