$101M in bonds planned for roundabouts, carousel By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com The Carmel City Council will consider $101 million in bonds for six new roundabouts, new multi-use paths, development incentives to lure a new hotel and an antique carousel for downtown. There are two separate bond packages: One for $76 million to finance the projects and another for $25 million for future land purchases. Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said there will not be a tax increase and the bonds will be repaid using “existing cash flow.” City Council President Sue Finkam said the public will have ample time to learn more about the projects. “We take our fiduciary responsibility and commitment to the community seriously and anticipate a rigorous review in committee,” she said. Carmel Clerk-Treasurer Christine Pauley said she’s concerned about the spike in debt from two years ago. “As the city’s fiscal officer, the city’s total debt obligations has been a topic of discussion with bond-rating calls,” she said. “With the addition of these $101 million in bonds, the city debt levels will have risen substantially the last 18 months from $553 million to

$1.1 billion.”

The projects CAROUSEL — City councilors and other city employees traveled to Canada to look at a hand-carved Dentzel carousel, built in 1907, that has been operating at Centerville Island in Toronto since 1966. The price tag could be between $2 million and $3 million. A structure would be built around the carousel, which would allow year-round use. It contains 52 hand-carved animals. City Councilor Jeff Worrell supports the idea but understands there might be skeptics.

“The carousel would be an opportunity to add another amenity that appeals to children and brings people to our downtown area,” he said. HOTEL — Brainard said the city would provide incentives to lure a new hotel to the Carmel City Center area. Carmel recently agreed to pay $20,000 a month to a consultant to attract an Autograph Collection hotel by Marriott by 2020. The preliminary budget provided by Brainard shows $4 million in professional fees and soft costs; $1 million in partial site acquisition and costs; $31 million for hard construction; and $2 million for City Center infrastructure costs. Of the $38 million, the city would pay $15 million using proceeds from bonds. The rest would fall on the developer’s construction loan. To obtain a construction loan at a lower rate, the Carmel Redevelopment Commission will back up the mortgage loan payments. ROUNDABOUTS — Roundabouts are at 106th Street and Hazel Dell Parkway; 3rd Avenue and Carmel Drive; 3rd Avenue and City Center Drive; Medical Drive and Carmel Drive; East 4th Street and Main Street; and 6th Street and Range Line Road. BROOKSHIRE — The City of Carmel plans to replace the clubhouse at city-owned Brookshire Golf Course.

Locals consider running, replacing State Sen. Kenley By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com After a quarter century serving in the Indiana State Senate, 72-year-old Noblesville Republican Luke Kenley has election announced he will retire Sept. 30, leading to a caucus to replace him. A date hasn’t been set, but several names have been floated as possible candidates to replace Kenley, including Megan Wiles, president of the Noblesville City Council; Sue Finkam, president of the Carmel City Council; and Scott Willis, a business owner and Marine who ran against Kenley in the last primary election. MEGAN WILES — Kenley has encouraged

SUE FINKAM — She has represented Carmel’s northeast district on the city council since 2012 and has been a resident of since

2005. She was the founding chairperson of PorchFest, an early fall outdoor music festival. Her professional background includes experience in management, marketing, sports medicine and more. She serves as director of external engagement at Indiana Donor Network. SCOTT WILLIS — This Westfield resident ran against Kenley previously because he felt the General Assembly needs to change the formula for school funding, which he hopes would return Hamilton County schools to some of the top in the state for dollars funded per student. Willis, a father of three, lost in the 2016 primary to Kenley with less than 40 percent of the vote. Willis said he will make a decision soon.

In the past 20 years, the City of Carmel has seen its population nearly triple from 31,808 in growth 1996 to 91,374 in 2016. And the growth isn’t slowing. A recent study by the IU Kelley School of Business’ Indiana Business Research Center found Brainard that Carmel led the state in growth in 2016 with the addition of 2,977 people. But how big could Carmel get one day? “If we continue to grow at 2 or 3 percent a year, we will probably be at 110,000 by the 2020 census,” Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said. “The market really decides our population growth, not the government.” And someday the city could be home to 160,000 residents, Brainard said. Some of the growth has been through annexation, but Brainard said much of it is because of new housing units. Brainard said Carmel could have a larger population in the future depending on the size of new apartment and condominium buildings. “It depends on how we build,” he said. “I really don’t want to go over five stories anywhere.” Brainard said he’s not concerned that the city will eventually become too crowded or dense. “We’re 49 square miles with Home Place,” he said. “The Island of Manhattan is 27 square miles, and there are 2 million people. We could get to 160,000 people one day.” Brainard said there is no target goal for population. He said financial projections are based on population growth, but he isn’t relying on extreme growth to meet tax projections to pay for debt. “It’s not about numbers,” he said. “It’s about having a beautiful city where people can easily get around. It’s not about having more than the next town.” Two issues that often come into play with high population growth are overcrowded schools and traffic congestion. Brainard said the national trend is for people to have fewer children. As a result, Carmel Clay Schools projects flat attendance numbers in the future. As for roads, Brainard said roundabouts have eased congestion.

Lipe earns 2 state honors By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Ryan Lipe learned about a latest honor through a slew of congratulatory texts. “I was in Colorado, achievement so it was two hours behind Indiana time. I woke up to all these texts,” said Lipe, a 2017 Carmel High School graduate. “I was like, ‘Wait, what did I win?’ I looked at my emails and I had one from Gatorade.” Lipe Lipe earned the Gatorade Indiana Track and Field Award for 2017 June 22. “I was surprised,” he said. “My coach (Ken Browner) told me I was in contention, but I didn’t know how close it would be.” Lipe had won the Indiana Mr. Track and Field award earlier in June. “That was a great honor, because (Evansville Harrison’s) Noah McBride is a great athlete,” Lipe said. “At the state meet, he beat me in the 100 meters and almost broke the state record in the 200. I figured it would come down to the two of us.” Lipe helped lead the Greyhounds to their

third consecutive state title June 2. Lipe captured the pole vault with a height of 17 feet, 3 inches and placed second in the 100 meters in 10.61 at the state meet. Browner said Lipe was well-deserving of the state awards. “He’s probably one of the top three or four kids I’ve ever coached in his ability to do a number of events and be good at all of them,” Browner said. “He’s a freak of nature. His nickname, ‘The Unicorn,’ definitely fits.” Lipe said the honors are inspiring as he gets ready for his college career. “It definitely makes me want to strive for greatness at Alabama,” Lipe said.

Roger called Shelbourne Knee Center. At age 62 he didn’t want to hang up the soccer cleats or give up the trail runs with his dog Cowboy. And after a successful total knee replacement it looks like he won’t have to. In Roger’s words, “The biggest thing is I’m walking pain free.” And for Roger, those are pretty nice words to live by. A recent Shelbourne Knee Center study found that patients took 85% less pain medicine and had improved pain control after undergoing Shelbourne’s knee replacement process versus the with your life. In Roger’s case that means kicking soccer balls and getting back on the trail. He’s always had the heart to do it. Now he’s also got the knee.

Runners ready for 8-hour race By Christine Fernando news@currentzionsville.com On Saturday, Indianapolis resident Andrew Bartolacci will wake up to a breakfast of French toast sticks with his event 1-year-old son before driving to Butler University to run for eight hours straight. “My lungs will be able to take the eight hours, it’s whether or not my legs will give out, that’s the question,” he said. On July 22, Bartolacci will run in the third annual 8-Hour Dream Endurance Race, staged by the Carmel Road Racing Group. Participants run as far as they can in eight hours. Bartolacci’s goal is to break 40 miles for the first time. Fishers resident Brad Baumgartner runs 2,000 miles a year—a mileage he said is necessary when running four to five ultramarathons each year. During the race, he hopes to run 40 to 45 miles as practice for a 50-mile ultramarathon in September. For Baumgartner, finishing races pushes him to do longer events. “When I finished, I thought I could go farther,” he said. “There’s something about finishing and feeling not quite done, so you

want to try the next thing.” Zionsville resident Mike Cole, who’s shooting for 50 miles, said the feeling of accomplishment is what drives him. “The feeling when you’ve run faster than you thought you could or run farther than you thought you could or placed higher than you thought you could, that feeling is like no other,” he said. For 25 years, Cole has run for that feeling, but at the endurance race he’s running for something more. He hopes to raise at least $500 for his friend’s charity—the Joseph Maley Foundation, which raises mental health awareness and offers inclusive athletic programs for children.

Tree falls on museum By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com A large tree fell on the roof of the Monon Depot Museum on the afternoon of July 11 during heavy storms. monon depot The tree tore holes through the roof of the building at 211 First St. S.W. along the Monon Trail in Carmel. Because of the damage, the museum will likely be closed for two weeks from the time of the fall. Emily Ehrgott, executive director of the Carmel Clay Historical Society, was near the museum when she heard the crash. She rushed over to assess the damage and saw water dripping into the building. “I used coffee cups and buckets and anything I had to catch the water,” she said. “If I wasn’t there, there would be inches of water the next morning.” Ehrgott said no exhibits or artifacts were damaged. She called a company to fix the roof and expects it should be repaired shortly. She said insurance will pay for repairs. The tree was removed and a tarp was placed to cover the hole. Built in 1883, the Monon Depot once served as the main transportation hub for Carmel and is now operated as a museum

Old Town renovates globally By Christine Fernando news@currentincarmel.com In a remote village in Costa Rica, a mother died from kidney failure, leaving behind a baby girl as her father struggled to juggle parenting and battling giving back Parkinson’s disease. He didn’t have the time or money to give his daughter a safe home, so Old Town Design Group stepped in to build one for him approximately five years go. Since then, the Carmel homebuilding company has built 15 homes in Costa Rica and Nicaragua. It has pledged to build 12 new ones this year. The company also works with an organization called Safe Families to renovate houses for people in need in Carmel. “We’re not just building communities here in Carmel,” said Liz Yust, sales and marketing team manager. “We’re building communities across the world.” Yust said a house is one of the greatest gifts that can be given. A house provides safety and protection—two things that can transform a person’s life. “It’s not just a house,” she said. “It’s a home. It’s an essential part of life.” The initiative, called the Orchard Project, uses profits from home-building in Carmel to build homes in poverty-stricken areas abroad. Yust said clients can help give someone a home by building their own home.

It’s not a simple process. Yust said bringing skilled labor and materials to developing countries is more difficult and expensive than in Carmel. Despite the work, brand ambassador April Miles said it’s worth it because of the hope the homes instill. “If you don’t have hope, you have nothing,” Miles said. “That roof over their heads pulls them out of a place of hopelessness.”

Toto Around Town: The Village of WestClay summer concert

Call to schedule your free design consultation

Toto didn’t have to go far to meet some of his neighbors at the monthly Sunday night Village of WestClay outdoor concert. Families packed the Village Green for the music of 3 to 1 and enjoyed food and beverages provided by local food trucks. This month, the 719-acre neighborhood of The Village of WestClay is celebrating its 17th anniversary from its debut on Broad Street. Approximately 95 percent of the 1,400 lots for single-family homes, town homes and apartments are completed. (Above) Toto loved hanging out with the Jungels family, and even in Molly’s wagon.

Golf to aid Pink Ribbon Connection By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The beneficiary for the fifth annual Earl D. Hoover Memorial Golf Tournament for Charities has a special fundraiser meaning to board member Roy Allen Lederman, whose wife, Jen, is a breast cancer survivor. The tournament, which will be held July 22 at River Glen Country Club in Fishers, assists a different charity each year. “My wife was diagnosed when she was 27 years old, and my son was not even a month old,” said Lederman, a Carmel resident. “She is now 15 years cancer-free. The Pink Ribbon Connection benefits people locally. It helps the women going through breast cancer emotionally and psychologically (and helps provide) the support they need. For those that can’t afford it, this organization provides the wigs free of charge for those in need.” The cost for one golfer is $150 and a foursome is $600. Registration starts at 7 a.m. with a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. The tournament benefits Indiana chapters of various charities, including the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (2013),

the Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation (2014), Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (2015) and Alzheimer’s Association (2016). “We raised $12,000 last year, which was the largest amount we’ve raised,” said tournament founder Michael Hoover, a Carmel resident. “Each year we take our turns, and each board member presents a case list for charity. This year we all voted to go with Roy’s selection. When I called (Pink Ribbon Connection) and told them we’d like to partner with them, they said the timing could not be better for their needs.” The tournament is named for Hoover’s father, who was a former Muncie police officer who died of cancer in 1997.

Michael Draper’s addiction began at age 8 with one simple question: “Would you like to learn about your ancestry?” He has been studying genealogy ever genealogy since. “Everyone here in this room is addicted,” he said. “And there’s no addiction recovery, so be careful. You may walk in today and leave an addict.” Draper now volunteers at Carmel Clay Public Library’s genealogy lab, where he teaches ancestry rookies every Tuesday and Thursday. He starts with Family Search, a free database, and Ancestry.com, a paid database that CCPL offers for free. Frequent attendee Cathy Jones said it is the challenge and the stories that make genealogy so addicting. Some of her family stories include the first Massachusetts Bay Colony divorce and her great grandfather’s children, who were involved with the Underground Railroad. Genealogy has led her to records offices and libraries in Canada, Germany and Ireland. It has taught her about herself, her family and history. It has honed her teach-

ing and analytical skills, and it has shown her the hardships people face and their resilience. Technology is making the process easier and faster by curating online collections, Draper said. But the original process is still the same. It begins by finding original sources—the building blocks. “The beauty is in the records and using them to put together stories about reality, what might have happened,” he said.

Paul H. Graybrook, 60, of Greenwood, died July 4 from injuries sustained from an auto racing accident. He was born March 4, 1957, in New Albany, Ind., and was the eldest of two sons to Ralph and Mary Ann Graybrook. He is survived by his wife of 34 Graybrook years, Suzin Graybrook; their daughter, Jenifer Graybrook-Snider; son-in-law Brandon Snider; and brother David Graybrook (Vicky). G raybrook served his country in the U.S. Air Force and was employed at AT&T for 28 years. The Graybrook family observed their Christian faith and served within their Greenwood community for many years. His passion for auto racing could only beeclipsed by the love he held for his family.

Carmel’s Gary and Jackie Runyon sell 52-car collection, start anew By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

New collection

Gary and Jackie Runyon spent years building their car collection. They constructed a huge garage to house and care for their treasures. “My attitude then was cover story I was going to die with them,” Gary said. Then the Carmel couple, owners of Runyon Equipment Rental and Runyon Surface Prep Rental & Supply, determined for several reasons it was time to sell the entire 52-car collection. “My wife and I talked about what is going on with car collecting and how it’s changed dramatically over the past years, especially with the millennials coming in,” said Gary, who graduated from Carmel High School in 1968. “They’re going after a different type of car. The baby boomers are getting older, and I particularly like factory racecars. Those aren’t the cars the millennials are after.” So the couple has restarted its collection with six cars so far. This time, the collection will be more modest. “We’ll probably end up with 15 to 20 cars,” said Gary, who described he and Jackie as “Corvette freaks.” Prior to selling 52 cars through Mecum Auctions in January in Kissimmee, Fla., the Runyons always bought — not sold — their cars. “We’re collecting a totally different kind of car now,” Gary said. “People are interested in unrestored, documented real cars. That seems to the hotter trend.” By real cars, Gary said he means they have the original engine and transmission and don’t include parts from different cars. Gary said he has been skeptical about what has been going on with the car-collecting market for a few years. “It’s got really soft,” Gary said. “The hot rods and muscle cars have really taken it on the chin. Corvettes will always be good. The millennials like the Corvettes as well as the baby boomers. The racecars meant something to me because I grew up with them.” The Runyons collected factory documented drag racecars, lightweight Dodge or Chrysler racecars.

The Runyons purchased a marina blue 1967 Corvette Coupe from Matt Litavsky, son of the original owner, at an auction at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in May. Keith Litavsky purchased the car after coming back from the Vietnam War with two Purple Hearts. Litavsky, who died in 1993 from cancer caused by Agent Orange exposure, seldom drove the car, which had just 8,553 miles on it. “We liked the history on it and a lot of details,” Jackie said. “That’s why you buy collector cars, because of the background. This one is bittersweet because it’s sad to read the history on it on Matt’s father and all the things he did for our country. At the auction, they just really made a large display on it. It was very cool.” The Fox Business Network’s TV show “Strange Inheritance with Jamie Colby” interviewed the Runyons in early July for an episode that is expected to air in early 2018. That Corvette, purchased for $675,000, is stored under glass in the Runyons’ large garage. The other two Corvettes are a 1964 model, which has won several awards, and a 2016 Corvette the couple watched getting built in Bowling Green, Ky. “We literally watched every bolt and nut get put on the car,” Gary said. “It’s almost behind the scenes. If you are not having one built yourself and took a tour, it wouldn’t be the same thing. Jackie got to be the first one to start it.” The Runyons also have a new Ferrari, Hemi Barracuda and Chevrolet SSR pickup truck.

“Dana Mecum (Mecum Auctions president) asked me which cars do we want to keep,” Gary said. “If I pick and choose which ones

I want to keep, I’m going to keep them all. I don’t want to get rid of them. I couldn’t pick and choose. So we got rid of them all and started over.” Gary said all the cars had a story behind them. “In a way, it took a piece of me,” Gary said. “But the bottom line is I didn’t want to stick my kids trying to figure out what to do with them, and the older I get I was fearful that the value would start to drop.” The couple’s three children have no interest in car collecting. His son, Jack, raced U.S. Auto Club sprints, midgets and champ dirt cars for several years, but the collecting bug never bit. The same is true for daughters Wendy RunyonRicker and Carla Runyon-Fazekas. The Runyons’ previous business sponsored IndyCars from 1986 to 1995. Gary’s father, Jack, started Jack’s Tool Rental in 1955. Gary took over the business after his father died in 1978 and sold it to a national corporation in 1999. In 2004, the Runyons started Runyon Equipment Rental. Jack serves as president. His daughters also work in the family businesses.

obs e r v a tion Kindle by its cover

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker We might know spine. Certainly, we’ve learned the definition of cover. But what is the fore edge, hinge and free endpaper? Our lexicon must include hand-stitched, end-stained and hardbound. Although one would be hard-pressed to find someone who has never held a book, few of us show more than a limited command of the vocabulary required to describe its many components. Most focus on the ink at its most fundamental, the ideas. The means of conveyance, well, means very little. For generations, we humans have scribbled our hopes, aspirations and accumulated knowledge into the most permanent and accessible forms our technology would allow. From stone tablets to books took centuries; yet, the conversion to the digital may be done in a single lifetime (or less). The great mass of collected human knowledge has largely been made electronic. Convenience, low-cost and adjustable font size have driven us to rethink the way we approach how we absorb information. And so what? Bits and bytes are increasingly controlling the way we live. Currency, communication, and, now, data all move without any of the pesky need for an actual physical specie. Still, is it wise to judge a Kindle by its cover? If a book is edited not with a pen but with a keyboard, can we show its evolution, or devolution, from one iteration to the next? Someone recently reminded that books, by their very nature, are romantic and mysterious objects. At sight, we don’t know what they will bring us. Will our smartphone come to embody the same promise?

READER S ’ V I EW S 11 nights excessive for fireworks Editor, One of my favorite parts of the Fourth of July celebration is fireworks! It is truly a wonderful American tradition. However, I Googled Carmel Fireworks 2017 guidelines and found that our city permits fireworks for 11 straight nights, June 29 to July 9, from 5 p.m. to midnight. Can someone please explain the need for 11 nights? If you are a pet owner, a parent of a small child or just merely a person who would prefer not to be awakened for 11 nights in a row by loud popping sounds, this ordinance also may be causing you stress! Would the city consider being

more realistic about this ordinance? Possibly three to four nights? By the way, many people do not watch their clock closely to ensure they have not exceeded the midnight rule, nor mark their calendars to ensure it is past the July 9 cut-off date. They use this ordinance as a “suggestion.” My suggestion would be that all concerned Carmel residents email our city office with your concern about our fireworks ordinance in the hopes of changing it. My hope is that our mayor and city council members are living in neighborhoods like mine. Noisy ones. Joyce Winner, Carmel

I pretty much live at Meijer. Six to seven gallons of milk a week, five boxes of cereal, two bunches of bananas ... humor you get the picture. The point is, I have my grocery shopping down to a fine art. Many of you, however, do not. So here ya go. Have a list. This is Grocery 101 here, people. A list won’t prevent you from buying things not on the list but will ensure you get everything that your family deemed important enough to actually write on the list. Doo’s deodorant, Maddie’s pencil sharpener, cat food, etc., — essentials that you will definitely hear about if forgotten. Just do it! I shouldn’t have to mention this, but I realize I am dealing with amateurs: Always park as close to a cart corral as possible. Only use the self-check line if 75 percent of your items are pre-packaged. You are not a professional cashier! You have not memorized the scan code for radicchio! Never get in the check-out line behind women over the age of 30 (unless it’s me). Rather, shoot for male patrons. They purchase less, never use coupons and usually pay with cash. Men don’t want to be there, so they’re focused on a quick exit. Organize your goods on the conveyor belt into these categories: cold/frozen products, boxed goods, cans/jars, produce and smooshables. This allows for an efficient bagging process and ensures that dairy and meat stay colder (Doo always teases me about this whenever I allow him to tag along, but just this weekend I had a cashier actually thank me for my anal retentive organization and confirm that this technique does in fact speed up check-out. Take that, Doo!). Make me proud! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may email her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

Ride was a rip-off Editor, After a visit to the (CarmelFest) KidZone with my 3-year-old granddaughter, I felt I had to say something about the donkey ride. I cannot believe that the ride was five tickets to go around twice

Pie in the eye Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Hal Fryar passed away recently at 90. If you don’t know who he is, maybe the name Harlow Hickenlooper will ring humor a bell. Harlow Hickenlooper is tough to say. Hal Fryar will be tough to forget. They are one and the same. Hal was the host of several children’s television shows in Indianapolis throughout his 43-year career, including a longtime gig on WFBM-TV (now WRTV-6), where he introduced Three Stooges movie shorts. In 1965, Fryar was cast in the original Three Stooges movie, “The Outlaws Is Coming,” playing the part of Johnny Ringo. In 2008, he was inducted into the Indiana Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame. Hal loved performing on live TV, a passion he and I shared. But there was a strain in our relationship — a mock competition between us. It began when Hal boasted that the Three Stooges hit him in the face with a pie, citing it as proof of his friendship with the trio. Not to be outdone, I proudly proclaimed that I had once been similarly victimized by the one and only Soupy Sales when he came to Indy to perform at Crackers Com-

edy Club. Soupy agreed to do a live WISH-TV shoot from his hotel. That morning, as we planned, I waited at the elevator until he exited to the lobby. I mentioned to Soupy how much older he looked. When a waiter walked by carrying a pie, Soupy nabbed it and smooshed it squarely in my face. The last time Hal Fryar and I spoke, we compared proper pie-throwing techniques. The pie, which is usually shaving cream on a paper plate should be placed on the face using an upward motion. No grinding permitted. One eye of the recipient should be kept free of pie so he can navigate safely to a bathroom to clean up. Useless information, you say? Not to a comedy artist like Hal. Months ago, when Hal discovered that his cancer had returned, he lamented to his son, Gary, “Gosh darn it, I was really looking forward to my 90s.” Direct and right on target. Just like a pie in the face.

Erbert & Gerbert’s to open

Ted’s Montana Grill closes

By Heather Collins news@currentincarmel.com

A new sandwich shop is set to open Aug. 5 at 102 E. Carmel Dr. Erbert & Gerbert’s restaurant Sandwich Shop will be the restaurant’s third location in Indiana and offers a variety of sandwiches and soups. Carmel resident Troy Bruinsma opened the shop because he enjoyed the flavor profile of the sandwiches and the family roots behind the brand when he began exploring a new business to open in Carmel. Sandwiches include the Apollo, a chipotle citrus BBQ and chicken sandwich; the Quatro, a cranberry wasabi and chicken sandwich; the Erupter, a buffalo chicken and bleu cheese sandwich; the Spartan, a peppadew mustard and chicken sandwich; and the Jacob Bluefinger, an avocado vegetarian sandwich; as well as staples such turkey and avocado, roast beef and ham. The casual chain will offer counter service, drive-thru and delivery. Bruinsma said he wants to open additional Erbert & Gerbert’s stores in Fishers, Indianapolis, Whitestown and Zionsville.

Things at Clay Terrace are starting to look a little different. On June 27, one of the original restaurants in retail Clay Terrace, Ted’s Montana Grill, closed. The company said the grill had to make a tough decision to better position the brand for the future. The nearby Ted’s Montana Grill in Traders Point will remain open. “We made the decision to consolidate our presence in Indianapolis to a single location,” said Derek Walls, public relations and marketing manager for Ted’s Montana Grill. “It’s currently better positioned for long-term growth.” Walls noted that although Ted’s Montana Grill is a chain, the company sources everything locally and has a strong focus on sustainability and environmental responsibility, which makes it a more expensive company to operate compared to similar chain restaurants. The brand has recently opened new locations in Delaware, Ohio and Kentucky. Walls said Ted’s Montana Grill will continue to grow in other markets and con-

Carmel resident Troy Bruinsma will open Erbert & Gerbert’s Sandwich Shop on Aug 5. (Submitted photo)

The founder of Erbert & Gerbert’s grew up listening to bedtime stories created by his father about the fictional adventures of Erbert & Gerbert Herbert, and he decided to name his sandwich shop after them. The sandwiches names also are derived from the stories. The restaurant has more than 100 stores in 12 states. Bruinsma has lived in Carmel since 2005 with his wife and two children. The Carmel location will have a four-day grand opening Aug. 5 to 8. For more, visit Erbertandgerberts.com.

Commentary by Dmitry M. Arbuck, MD Stem cells repair tissue around them, donating mitochondria and other vital parts to diseased cells. If science repair is impossible, they turn themselves into new and healthy young tissue. This allows for the healing of virtually any organ. When infused intravenously, stem cells initially concentrate in the lungs and multiply there. This is why they are so useful in treating COPD, cystic fibrosis and other lung conditions. As the stem cells continuously multiply, their function is long-lived. In addition to being therapeutic on their own, they also promote your body’s own stem cells to become more vital and active. This aids in healing, but more importantly, is the basis for rejuvenation. Umbilical cord stem cells come from the donated cord blood of healthy newborns and, because of that, they do not present ethical concerns. Umbilical cord stem cells are not known to cause immune rejection or transmit genetic diseases. Stem cells are widely used to

treat conditions in orthopedic and sports medicine, immune diseases and a whole host of other diseases and conditions. Stem cells also possess powerful anti-inflammatory properties, so they suppress infections and help antibiotics be more effective. Each umbilical cord stem cell infusion prolongs life and prevents diseases. This is why they may be used prophylactically, allowing healthy people to stay healthy. By regulating the immune system, umbilical cord stem cells prevent cancer, slow down aging and improve well-being. With regular use of umbilical cord stem cells, humanity will change. We will live longer and be healthier. It is estimated that living to age 160 and older will be common. It is hard to fathom the true scope of benefits that stem cells can provide. The future is today. Please check StemCellsIndy.com for more information.

Book explores surviving cancer By Mark Johnson • news@currentincarmel.com

In her role as a business owner and operator, Maria Celeste Provenzano Cook devotes a great deal of time Healing and energy to her company. Yet, her biggest and most rewarding challenge has come in her role as a two-time cancer survivor. “Many people don’t know that I’m a cancer survivor,” Cook said. “They look at me and say, ‘You don’t look sick!’ In particular, other cancer patients ask, ‘What did you do to heal?’” Indeed, that question inspired the Carmel resident to assume yet another role, that of author. “For me, cancer is not a death sentence,” she said. “It’s a wake-up call to make some essential life changes. Making changes in your approach to hygiene, to the type of clothing you wear, and, most importantly, your daily routine.” Thus, Cook began what she would come to regard as her journey to healing. She would document that journey in her book, “What I Did to Heal Through Cancer, Chemotherapy, and Radiation.” “Through my journey, I learned how to navigate medicine, and I learned the value of Western medicine, of Eastern medicine, and of spiritual medicine,” she said. Yet faith and spirituality played major roles in both her healing and the inspiration to share her journey with others, she said.

“The book is a labor of love. It’s a road map through cancer,” Cook said. “I asked God to use me to help others. I had to take care of myself to take care of others.” In addition to providing a guide for others on their journeys to healing, Cook said the book serves one more purpose. “The book keeps me accountable to staying healed,” she said. “I take very seriously what God has asked me to do, and that is to live what is in this book and to be an example.” The book is available at amazon.com.

Teen launches ADA 5K By Heather Collins news@currentincarmel.com A 15-year-old Carmel High School student has organized the first community walk in Carmel to benefit the American Diabetes Association. fundraiser Rahul Devathu believes that everyone can take steps to prevent Type 2 diabetes. He said he wants to encourage healthy lifestyles and actions to get there. “We have heard the talk, often even preach it, Devathu but the unfortunate truth is we don’t walk the walk,” Devathu said. “With this in mind we decided to name the event Walk the Walk, illustrating our goal of actually proving our words with action.”

Devathu, a member of Team Pioneer, said his inspiration for launching the event was the values instilled in him from his upbringing and his desire to help people. Walk the Walk will feature an ADA-certified nutritionist and staff members who will be available to answer questions. The 5K walk will begin at 9 a.m. July 22 at River Road Park, 12575 River Rd. Participants are encouraged to report to the registration desk 30 minutes before the start time.

CHS grad films police show By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Ryan McClain has had a busy and productive summer. The 2015 Carmel High profile School graduate and Ball State University student has been providing production support for WRTV-6 in the studio for 15 to 20 hours a week and worked as a videographer for the Delaware County Sheriff’s Dept. McClain is producing a 30-minute show featuring the “Deputies of Delaware County” on YouTube and the department’s Facebook page. McClain made his connection when working as a videographer on a 30-minute documentary with fellow BSU students on the meth problem in Delaware County. “After that the sheriff (Ray Dudley) came to me and said he would like to have a ‘Cops’-style show to show how cool we are and be more open to the public,” McClain said. “They gave me their ideas about the show and asked for my ideas.” McClain started working on the show in November. The first episode came out in May. “I do a ton of ride-alongs,” McClain said.

Blueprint for Improvement: Outdoor retreat for the family Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions: The goal was to design a multi-functional outdoor space the family could enjoy for many years to come! 1. The original wood deck was replaced with an expanded stamped concrete patio at ground level for a trip-free transition from the grass. The stamped concrete steps have embedded lights for safety. 2. A large portion of this new patio is under a vaulted, covered structure to provide shelter in precipitation. The painted structure matches the home’s existing trim color, and the column bases are clad with a stone to coordinate with the existing brick. The new accent lighting allows the space to be enjoyed in the evening. 3. A new wood-burning fireplace was clad with the stone used for the column bases. The new grill island was clad with brick to match the base on the home — a seamless look with the home’s intended style!

Before Background Info: This home in Carmel’s Longridge Estates neighborhood is only 5 years old, but the original base level deck that was tacked onto the home was not sufficient for this growing family’s needs.

After

Before problems: With their love of the outdoors and the stressful demands of their careers, the family desired a combined outdoor retreat and entertaining space to enjoy in multiple seasons, with direct visibility to the kids and dog playing in the backyard.

How many times have you been told to not rock the boat or upset the apple cart? Meaning, of course, senior living don’t do anything that will either create confrontational change or draw attention to yourself. Funny how this is often the theme for status quo people or organizations. In a recent Wall Street Journal article, Alana Dunagan wrote about Mitch Daniels, president of Purdue University, who announced the purchase of Kaplan, an online university, shocking the faculty and academic community. She called the decision by the trustees unexpected, unconventional and smart. Naysayers had mostly unprintable comments. Rocking the boat, or in more sophisticated terms disrupting the status quo, is evident in most of the innovative new approaches to business and education. As we age there is often a reluctance to “go out on a limb.” The “what if” mentality dominates and nothing changes. Frankly, I like the rocking boat as long as there is a plan for the shore. In other words, what is the benefit for the action and what is the

downside? We often get caught up in the noise of the moment. This is especially true in today’s noisy media world. In an article from “Brain Bulletin #104” the author extols the virtue of silence, stating that silence is golden and good for your brain. It goes on to say that noise pollution increases stress, which causes health and emotional distress. It recommends carving out some silence. An hour on a park bench is perfect. I find that my most creative ideas emerge after I’ve rested my brain. Unfortunately, this is often at 3 a.m. In one of our Stratford Conversation Club meetings we shared tips on being a better listener. One of them was to suspend your own judgment until the other person has finished speaking. Imagine a world of thoughtful listeners who provide positive support for new ideas. Who knows what might happen?

Lorene Burkhart resides at The Stratford in West Clay. She is the author of seven books.

Towering achievement: Taipei 101 Commentary by Don Knebel Taipei 101, located in Taipei’s vibrant financial district, was the world’s tallest building for five years. travel It remains famous for its innovations and extensive symbolism. Named for its 101 stories, Taipei 101 was completed in 2004 at a cost of almost 2 billion U.S. dollars. At 1,671 feet (509 meters) high, it was the first inhabited building more than half-a-kilometer high and was 188 feet taller than the Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur, then the world’s tallest building. Taipei 101 lost its title in 2009 to Dubai’s 2,722-foot Burj Khalif, the first building more than a half-mile tall. It retains its title as the world’s tallest green building, based on a LEED certification in 2011. Taipei 101 is approximately 660 feet from a major fault line. To withstand both a 2,500-year earthquake and the typhoons common to Taiwan, the building includes a novel mechanism allowing the building to flex while resisting excessive swaying. A 728-ton spherical steel pendulum, 18 feet in diameter, is suspended between the 92nd and 87th floors and acts as a tuned mass damper, making the building stable even in 130 mph winds. The design of Taipei 101 symbolically celebrates Taiwan’s economic and technological progress. The number of floors – 101 – connotes both the new beginnings of each Jan. 1 and binary code. The exterior of the building, covered in green glass, suggests a giant bamboo stalk, an ancient icon of learning and abundance. Eight sections above the base each include eight floors, reflecting the No. 8 as a symbol of prosperity. Each section resembles an antique Chi-
