HSE grad talks recovery, damage from heroin use By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Chad Tarbutton always said he wouldn’t try heroin. But ultimately, he did. The former three-sport ADDICTION athlete graduated from Hamilton Southeastern High School in 2008. Now 29, he said a few years ago he thought wouldn’t make it to 30. Tarbutton was first introduced to drugs when he broke his hand at 17 playing lacrosse. He was prescribed strong painkillers, and that’s when he said his addiction problem started – a problem that would include a rehab stint at Fairbanks treatment center at age 19. At 19, Tarbutton was attending Ball State University when an older friend offered him a small blue pill. “He just told me it was a painkiller. It was Oxycotin. I took half of that,” he said. “I remember that night more vividly than any Christmas, birthday, reunion. It was like, ‘Oh, my god, this is what I’ve been waiting for.’ My body was starving for that. “Deep, deep down I knew I was in trouble. It becomes (habitual) most days and then (you use) every day.” From that point, Tarbutton began experimenting with other drugs – cocaine and pills. “It started ramping up really quickly until I was about 23,” Tarbutton said. “I was always the guy who said, ‘I’ll never do heroin.’” But that changed when Tarbutton attended a party, and same friend who gave him Oxycotin, offered him a capsule full of powder, which he snorted. Although no one told him it was heroin, he had a feeling it was. “I didn’t know what it was, but (deep down) I knew,” Tarbutton said. “To be brutally honest, I had a good idea.” THE DARK SIDE OF DRUG USE Tarbutton first injected heroin when he and the same friend met at a house in Anderson, where his friend shot up in the bathroom. Around that time, Tarbutton had started dating a girl who also used heroin. His friend told him he was wasting the drug by snorting it. “My disease got to where the heroin stopped working, so I was desperate to try anything like cocaine and stimulants,” Tarbutton said. The high would satisfy him for 15 seconds, and then he would crave more. “It’s like chasing the dragon. You’re trying to simulate the first high because every one after that is not near as good,” he said. Tarbutton began taking life-threatening risks to obtain drugs. “I’ve had a gun pointed at me (by) a dealer.

This is what the drug does to you,” he said. “It was over a $40 bag of cocaine. I stood up and was in his face. I was so stupid. That’s how important the drug is to you. That’s the power of addiction.” THE ROAD TO RECOVERY The first time Tarbutton went to Fairbanks for recovery, he hadn’t tried heroin. He went because of his addiction to pain pills when he was 19. He participated in the outpatient program and returned at age 21 for the same addiction, only this time as an inpatient. The program was from seven to 10 days, a duration Tarbutton said was way too short for his addiction. The first time Tarbutton tried to rehab from heroin, he enrolled in a 30-day inpatient rehab program in Minnesota, followed by a stint in a sober living facility at the center. Tarbutton was clean for nearly four months but relapsed again. He returned to the Minnesota program a second time and maintained sobriety for about six months. He then spent time at a sober house in Nashville, but he eventually relapsed and overdosed. Tarbutton then enrolled in a recovery center in Arizona for 45 days. From there, he transferred straight to a rehab center in California and participated in a 5-1/2-month treatment program. He stayed clean for 1-1/2 years but fell in with a bad crowd and had a two-week relapse. He also battled pneumonia. He said his friends found him passed out in his apartment with seven drugs, including heroin, in his system. Tarbutton had sepsis from the pneumonia. He said drug usage lowered his immune system, which prevented his body from fighting off the pneumonia. The sepsis almost killed him, and he spent nearly 40 days in the hospital.

Tarbutton didn’t need to go to a center for treatment. That was the last time he used heroin. “I had learned so much out in California and had done so well and had a foundation for the first time in my life. I knew what to do,” he said. When his kidneys were well enough, he returned to Fishers and has been in recovery for 21 months, his longest-ever stretch since his first addiction. When he left the hospital, Tarbutton only weighed 138 pounds. Now, he weighs 215. PAYING IT FORWARD Tarbutton recently bought a house in Carmel and owns the lawncare business, Yardvarks Lawn Care, with his father, Todd. Now that he’s in a successful recovery, he wants to help other struggling with addiction. He plans to become a certified sober coach. “You get a call from the hospital or paramedics after overdoses, somebody sober comes to meet (the patient) and help guide them to treatment,” he said. Tarbutton said he doesn’t believe it’ll be difficult to be around others struggling with addition while he’s sober. “It’s actually beneficial for recovery. The new guys in meetings are the most important and get treated like gold,” he said. “It helps us remember how (bad) it was. It puts you right back there. You immediately step into gratitude.” Tarbutton’s long-term goal is to open a step-down treatment facility in Indiana. Addicts in recovery can spend a year or two at the facility in sober living. Tarbutton also plans to contact local lawmakers and talk about the importance of establishing step-down facilities instead of inpatient programs that only last seven to 10 days.

FACES OF THE HAMILTON COUNTY 4-H FAIR

Downspout inspires kids’ book By Chris Bavender news@currentincarmel.com

Hamilton County 4-H Fair Queen Emma Higginbotham (seated) was crowned July 12 before the start of the 2019 Hamilton County 4-H Fair, which ran July 18 to July 22. Higginbotham is an Arcadia native and a member of the Sheridan Ag 4-H Club. Her court is, back from left, fourth runner-up Madelyn Zola, third runner-up Emma Swain, second runner-up Emily Peterson, first runner-up Hailey Rivers and Miss Congeniality Mya Lotarski.

An unusual dragon sculpture in Carmel author Jen Lis’ neighborhood is the focus of her latest children’s picture AUTHOR book, “One Amazing Adventure for a Little Downspout.” “My kids are absolutely fascinated with it for lots of reasons,” Lis said. “First, it is unique. It is a dragon and it is fairly accessible to passersby to see and admire. It is so interesting because of all the different broken pieces of pottery that cover it.” Lis had recently finished another story and was thinking about what was next. That’s when the neighborhood dragon popped into mind. “We had lived here for five years by the time the idea took root that this could be fun to write a story about,” she said. What makes “One Amazing Adventure for a Little Downspout” even more special is the fact the artist who created the dragon, Sofiya Inger, also illustrated the book. It’s her first experience creating images for a book, as she primarily works in painting, textile arts and installations, including mosaic sculptures.

‘One Amazing Adventure for a Little Downspout’ is available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble. (Submitted photo)

“The story in the book is exactly what happened. I picked up a downspout that fell after a storm and I really liked the shape of it, so I started thinking what it reminds me of -- a long neck of a dragon,” Inger said. “I had experimented with mosaic sculptures before, but this was the first magical character I decided to make.” The book is available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

After its inaugural year, the Carmel Firkin Fest will return from 6:30 to 10 p.m. Aug. 30 at Union Brewing Co., 622 S. EVENT Range Line Rd. The event is a partnership between UBC and Indiana on Tap, an online destination to learn about craft beer news, events and information. It will feature 10 breweries serving only firkins, which are cask-brewed ales with a creamier mouth feel and less bite from carbonation. A tap beer is force-carbonated, like a soda. In a cask beer, the carbonation process occurs naturally. “It’s a smaller event. We really wanted to make it more of a partnership, more of a premier event,” Indiana on Tap founder Justin Knepp said. “Union Brewing does shut down the taproom for the event. In the world of craft beer, it is truly, legitimately a unique event because it’s the only event that is truly cask-ale only. There’s a cask ale section at some bigger events, but that’s more of an after-thought. Cask ale is what UBC does.” There are only 225 tickets available for

A question of civility Commentary by Lorene Burkhart While clearing the stacks on my desk, I found an article titled “Lessons in Civility.” In it, the author expressed PLAIN TALK concern that today’s version of being civil is a far cry from days of old when “please” and “thank you” were favorite expressions and that the advent of the internet has fueled the erosion of basic civility. Perhaps you’re curious about the root of the word civility. It comes from the Latin civis, for citizen. To be “civil” is to act in a way appropriate to your fellow citizens and our shared space. To treat people civilly means that we recognize that they are just as much people as you are, similar to empathy. This brings me to another article titled “Wishful Thinking,” in which the author laments the use of expressions such as, “No problem,” “I’m good” and “my bad,” wondering how these expressions became so popular and recalling how the response to “thank you” was “you’re welcome” in earlier times. When the response is “no problem,” does that mean there had been a problem? Moving on to the next response to a

question, “I’m good,” meaning what? Better than before, don’t bother me? Maybe I need to spend more time with the younger generation instead of the ones my age, who are puzzled by these phrases. Then, the most interesting response, “My bad.” Is there a secret language? The author of the article found this expression to be the most offensive, sounding somewhere between a concession and a gloat. The Urban Dictionary says it signifies a way of admitting a mistake and apologizing for the mistake without actually apologizing. While “you’re welcome” and “no, thank you” actually mention the other person, the newer expressions are self-focused and fit with the selfie concept. Maybe it’s old-fashioned to like “pretty” words, but it grates on my nerves to hear “stuff” instead of what it is or “you guys.” Have ladies become guys? I guess I’ll just cringe and get over it.

Apricot Sun gets exposure at fair By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Marlen Wensel sees her product being featured at the Indiana State Fair as great advertising exposure. CULINARY “Indiana Grown is a dynamic organization and we are so glad to partner with them,” Wensel said. Carmel residents Wensel and her husband, Robert, founded Carmel-based Apricot Sun in 2017. Wensel’s Mediterranean Zaatar, a spice blend, will be available at the Indiana Grown Marketplace, which is held in the Agriculture/Horticulture Building at the Indiana State Fair. The fair began Aug. 2 and runs through Aug. 18 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis. The new product Wensel created is gluten-free and vegan. “(Zaatar) is a condiment but you can also cook with it,” Wensel said. “It’s unique and popular across the Mediterranean. You can use it on a vegetable, spread it on flatbread or crackers and drizzle on sandwiches.” Samplings will be available from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Aug. 6 and 8 and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Aug. 9. “It’s a good way to try it and get a feel what it’s about,” said Wensel, who moved to the U.S. from Jordan in 2003. Tina Jesson is a part of Indiana Grown for the third year. Jesson, who owns Tina’s Traditional Tea Room in Carmel, will offer an array of teas, Jesson’s Jellies and packages of scone mix. “The State Fair has a big spot in my heart because it’s one of the first places I visited when I first came here to the U.S. 11 years ago,” Jesson said. “It certainly exposes the brand to people around the state.” Jesson has scone-making demonstrations at 10 a.m. Aug. 6 and 17 on the culinary stage.

gram director, said the marketplace is in its third year and is poised to be bigger and better than ever. “With over 500 products from at least 100 Indiana Grown members, visitors can become a culinary tourist while shopping from farmers, producers and artisans from all across the state,” Tallman said. Daily cooking shows are presented by Indiana Grown staff at noon, 3 and 4 p.m. on the Indiana Grown Culinary Stage.

and soon he was invited to give a presentation in Montreal in front of civil aviation agencies from around the world in the fall of 2017. “As a single-person company, they invited me to speak literally to the world about ideas on how to handle this,” Pierce said. Pierce found it eye-opening that the demand for remote ID services is so high. “At that point, we pivoted to focus purely on the remote ID piece,” Pierce said. “In doing so, we turned a lot of our competitors into potential customers and we got a lot of interest from the Dept. of Defense. That evolved into us working closer with the Air Force.” The Air Force awarded a contract to Pierce last year. “We’re continuing to build both the government and commercial sector interest in what we are doing,” he said. Pierce said there are many drones large enough to deliver parcels that are five pounds or less. Pierce Aerospace and Redwing Labs, an India-based drone delivery company, announced a partnership to advance global medical drone deliveries. “Pierce Aerospace’s Remote ID technology is essential to enable safe and scalable (beyond visual line of sight) operations for social and commercial purposes,” stated Anshul Sharma, co-founder of Redwing Labs. “Redwing’s experience with drone delivery combined with Pierce Aerospace’s remote ID technology is an important milestone for repetitive commercial deliveries.” Pierce Aerospace previously structured an alliance with Altitude Angel, an unmanned traffic management provider. The goal of the alliance is to bring automated drone flight a step closer. “They’ll provide air traffic management for unmanned aircraft,” Pierce said. “They are one of the largest ones that does that in Europe. They are headquartered in the United Kingdom but they serve all of Europe. They are also looking into coming into the U.S. as well.”

MEET AARON PIERCE Personal: Met fiancee, Becca Street, at Carmel High School. They’ve been a couple for 13 years. She is finishing her degree at Logan University in St. Louis to become a chiropractor. Pierce graduated with a degree in English and creative writing from IUPUI. He was working on a master’s degree at IUPUI in geographic information science remote sensing in graduate school but left early to start his company. While working on his master’s, he taught an earth science class at the University of Indianapolis. Hobbies: Hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, flying drones, photography. Daniels Leadership Foundation fellowship: In May, Pierce was selected as a fellow for Mitch Daniels Leadership Foundation, a year-long program. Fellows were selected through an application process that asked for ideas and vision to inspire change. Fellows are paired with mentors to work on leadership skills. Pierce said a goal is to make Indiana a place of relevance. “From my company’s perspective, we have an enormous amount of talent from the state we can recruit from,” Pierce said. “A lot of that talent goes to Silicon Valley right now. We want to retain it here in the state as we continue to grow.”

ESSAY Never lost

LETTER Justification for another tax increase?

Commentary by Terry Anker Sitting at the airport this morning waiting for a plane to deliver us from Indianapolis International to Hartsfield in Atlanta, we weary travelers are confronted with the all-too-common news of cascading delays. It seems the original plane required overnight repairs. Those didn’t accomplish the task. Finding this attempt unrequited, the airline assured an alternate plane would be ferried to us in short order. Alas, it seems that the newly requisitioned chariot developed its own issues. It may find its way to us – or not. A young woman approached the counter, clearly feeling some despair. “I am flying alone for the first time, and I think I will miss my connecting flight!” Calmed by the professional gate attendant, she was reassured that planes come and go and that, undoubtedly, she would eventually arrive to join her family in her home city. It is our way to obsess about our path. What if we get lost? Notions of unfamiliarity and uncertainty bring with them considerable anxiety. Still, have we ever been so lost that we didn’t eventually find our way home? On a trip to get ice cream while on vacation, my then-young children had lost confidence in my navigating and were pressuring me to stop and ask for directions from a bystander. In a particularly cranky moment, I responded that I once became so lost that I simply gave up and started a new family. After a moment of hushed discussion between them, the older asserted that I must be joking. Happily, I was. Still, the point was made. As long as we are committed to the ultimate result, we will arrive at our ultimate destination. And we did.

A living sleep nightmare Commentary by Danielle Wilson Most long-time readers know that sleep is very important to me and that I take great strides to maximize my zzz’s. I go to bed at 9 p.m. in hopes of a solid 10 HUMOR hours. I have a mask, sound machine, weighted blanket, blackout blinds and extra pillows, the last for building a wall between me and my husband, Doo. Most nights are fine, though occasionally life sabotages my perfectly laid plans. During the weekend, for example, I failed miserably. For starters, I was not home. We were at Doo’s family reunion in northern Indiana, where 36 of us cavort under one roof for 72 hours. I had actually stayed in town an extra day to avoid the inevitable opening-night festivities, but as Murphy’s Law would have it, everyone was too tired that night and decided to save the main event for when I arrived. (Sarcastic yay!) Despite bringing many of my shut-eye

accoutrements, I could not fall asleep. I heard everything, from raucous laughter to heavy footsteps to slamming doors. At 12:30 a.m., Doo came in, smelling of cigarettes and booze and fun. I was still wide awake an hour later, debating whether to kick Smelly Pants out or move myself. By 2 a.m., I’d decided to seek refuge in the living room, hoping to claim a couch. After dispersing four angsty teenagers who’d been scarfing down Lucky Charms and playing video games, I curled up on the 30-year-old-plus sofa that I soon discovered had a faint armpit odor. Eventually, I drifted off and awoke around 7 a.m., when the little ones began filtering in. So, epic fail on the sleep front. Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “If you want something done, ask a busy person to do it. The more things you do the more you can do.” -Lucille Ball

Editor, I would like a logical, moral and fiscally conservative justification for yet another tax increase here in what the chair of the local Republican Party, city councilor Laura Campbell, proudly touts as “the fifth-most Conservative friendly county in America.” Henry Mestetsky, director of the Carmel Redevelopment Commission, quickly reminds us that “school corporations are distinct taxing units governed by elected school boards and referendum/funding issues have nothing to do with your city government (mayor/city council).” However, as he surely knows, each time the city approves a tax abatement or TIF zone, the 50 percent of local property taxes that go to support the schools are no longer available “for the children.” From a moral perspective, why should I pay higher taxes for the schools when one of these leaders could lead a volunteer program, maybe run through the Hamilton County Community Foundation or Carmel Dads’ Club, to generate this amount requested for school “safety?” Hopefully, by not supporting this referendum I don’t hear “love it or leave it,” though. After all, you wouldn’t have me to tax if I did. Eric Morris, Carmel

Going virtually broke

Buying Selling Buying Or Or Selling A A Home? Home?

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Mary Ellen and I have been taking short walks around the neighborhood after dinner. It’s relaxing and good HUMOR exercise, but I can’t afford it anymore. You see, my wife is always looking for ways to improve our new house, hoping to spruce up the landscape — maybe by adding a blue spruce, just like the one she saw next door at the Fabershams’ house. Last night, I jotted down every detail that caught her eye, every home improvement she fancied as possibilities for our place, then I did a quick online search for approximate costs. Your prices may vary. “Oh, look!” she said. “The Robinsons are screening in their porch. We should do that so we can sit outside and not be bothered by mosquitoes.” Cost: $4,200. Then, she noticed the Medcalfs’ enclosed glass sunroom. “That’s even better, Dick. We could sit out there in the winter, have dinner and watch the snow falling.” Cost: $6,700. “Dick, the Rosens have an automatic sprinkler system. That would be an excellent investment for us. Curb appeal is so important.” Cost: $3,400. “Now, that is so serene,” Mary Ellen said about the Jamesons’ fountain and rock garden. “I’ve always wanted a fountain.” Cost: $1,200 plus high maintenance costs. By the time we got home, I was feeling broke. We went out on the deck to enjoy a glass of wine. She was silent for a few minutes, so I thought the spending spree was over. Things were looking up. But then she looked up: “I’d love to have a ceiling fan out here on the back porch.” Cost: $179. We are not going to buy most of those things. Truth is, my wife is actually very frugal. She simply enjoys dreaming about home improvements. Next June is our 40th wedding anniversary, and I suggested we go to Spain and Portugal to celebrate. “How does that sound?” I asked. “I don’t know,” she responded. “Can we afford it?” “Yes! It’s cheaper than going for a walk.”

The Recovery Room aims for healing By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com

Most people might feel trepidation about spending a few minutes in temperatures more than 200 degrees CRYOTHERAPY below zero, but not Tara Homan. The Westfield resident jumped at the chance to try cryotherapy when she learned about it, as she had been taking “brutal” 20-minute ice baths to recover after an intense workout. She hasn’t looked back. “An ice bath is much worse,” said Homan, who teaches fitness classes, rock climbs, completes workouts on her own and helps care for a paralyzed family member. Homan uses the cryotherapy tank and other services available at The Recovery Room, which has a location in Westfield and a recently renovated space near the Carmel/ Westfield border and will soon open one in Noblesville. Co-owner Konnie Komarovsky described The Recovery Room as a “sports spa” designed for people who are “beating themselves up from whatever they’re doing.” “It’s a matter of how much time do you want to spend feeling beat up? You can run

a 5K and spend four days feeling beat up, or you can spend a day and a half (after using The Recovery Room services),” he said. “How much is that worth to you? That’s really what people pay for.” The Recovery Room isn’t the only place to try cryotherapy in central Indiana, but Komarovsky said it’s unique in its pricing structure. Clients pay $69.99 per month for a year to have access to all of The Recovery Room’s services. Single-day passes are $39.99 and include all services. Elsewhere, a single cryotherapy treatment can cost $50 or more. Learn more at recoveryroomusa.com.

Wahlburgers, a burger restaurant founded by Executive Chef Paul Wahlberg and his celebrity brothers RESTAURANT Mark and Donnie Wahlberg and others, has announced it will build in Carmel, its first Indiana location. The restaurant has plans to open in 2020 at the Proscenium, a new mixed-use development under construction at the northwest quadrant of Range Line Road and Carmel Drive. The Proscenium development includes a nearly 2-acre green space, 196 residential units, 20,000 square feet of retail and 100,000 square feet of office space, and as 26 condos.

Proscenium project developer Tony Birkla said the commitment from Wahlburgers is confirmation of the development plan. “We couldn’t be more excited by this collaboration and to be a part of bringing Wahlburgers to Indiana, specifically to the Proscenium in Carmel,” Birkla stated. “This is the type of anchor tenant a developer dreams of. Wahlburgers will make the

Bottoms up: Carmel mixologist launches mobile business, farm-to-glass cocktails By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com For Brett Butler, creating the perfect cocktail is a matter of mixing art and science. DRINKS “It’s really finding that balance between art and science, the science of liquid and making a drink look the way it does with garnishes,” he said. “Eighty to 85 percent of our taste is smell, but it’s also visual.” Butler, a Carmel resident, is the founder of Alcomy, a mobile cocktail business. He also bartends at Danny Boy Beer Works in Carmel. “It’s more than mixology,” Butler said. “There’s a lot of entertainment and flair and it’s an overall experience, hopefully, people haven’t had before.” Butler founded Alcomy in 2016 when he lived in Los Angeles. The business began to pick up steam when he moved to Indiana in September 2017. Butler originally moved LA for acting and writing in 2006. He was hired for work as an extra in short films and acted in some commercials. “I came back to spend time with my family and get back to my roots and lay down my roots and also continue this business,” Butler said. “In LA, there’s a lot of competition and a lot of people doing what I do.” While in LA, Butler studied under mixolo-

gist Matthew Biancaniello, a cocktail chef who takes groups foraging in the Santa Monica mountains. Biancaniello is the reason behind Butler’s fascination with the farm-to-glass cocktail trend. “The concept I came up with is to make it more health-conscious, using fresh herbs, fresh juices and going to farmers markets,” Butler said. “I like to use things from farmers markets and really celebrate the farmers of Indiana.” Butler sometimes dehydrates fruit for garnishes. He also frequently creates his own homemade syrups, such as a blueberry-lavender-sage. Butler works private events and teaches classes through Alcomy. He began working for Danny Boy Beer Works in October 2017 and recently created a pop-up bar concept, where every third Thursday of each month he organizes a craft cocktail bar with five specialty drinks. Diners order drinks from their server or bartender, and Butler makes it. Butler’s goal is to be the go-to mobile mixology service in Indiana. He also is working on creating handcrafted mixers called Alcomy Elixirs.

Eventually, he wants to create a partnership with a company and sell canned cocktails. “Alcomy is curating an elevated liquid experience. That’s my focus, to be really unique in that,” Butler said. “There’s no theme, no idea, no event I’m not willing to try. There’s nothing beyond the realm of creating in regard to putting together an experience.” For more or to keep up with special classes and events, visit Alcomy on Facebook. Book an event by emailing Butler at brettwbutler@gmail.com.

TIPS AND TRICKS FROM MIXOLOGIST BRETT BUTLER • Best tip for a beginning bartender: Add the alcohol last. “Always add the least expensive ingredients first, so if you screw up the drink as you’re learning, you’re not going to waste good alcohol.” • Most important bar tool: A jigger. “It’s your best friend, making sure everything is all portioned. It’s all math.” • Ingredient to always have on hand: Some kind of citrus. “Whether it’s orange juice, a good, fresh-squeezed lime or lemon juice, it goes a long way.” • Favorite drink to enjoy: An old-fashioned. • Favorite drink to make: Feng shui. “It’s so easy to get wrong, but if I can balance it, it’s lychee, Thai basil, Thai chilis, lemongrasshoney-basil syrup with vodka and sake.”

Hootie & the Blowfish had just been on a break, albeit an extended one. The band hadn’t toured since 2008 as CONCERT lead singer Darius Rucker pursued a solo country career. In between, Hootie played some yearly charity events. This year the four band members have reunited for the Group Therapy Tour that lands at Noblesville’s Ruoff Mortgage Music Center at 7 p.m. Aug. 17. The charity events have primarily been shorter sets. “It was strange coming back out and to rehearse, which never used to do in our past career,” bass player Dean Felber said. The band is playing most of the songs from “Cracked Rear View,” the band’s debut album, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary. The band formed in 1986 while the four friends were attending the University of South Carolina in Columbia. Fittingly, the U.S. tour ends with three nights in Columbia. The group is in process of making a sixth studio album.

“We’re rehearsing some of the new songs, we are kind of waiting to see where the singles come from,” Felber said. “I can’t say we won’t play a new song in a couple of weeks but nothing is set in stone. Once we got together to work on songs, the rust came off pretty quick.” When the band first went on hiatus, Felber was doing music for commercials. Felber also formed a wine company, Perception Wines. “Then my daughters came to live with me and I became a full-time dad for a few years while they were growing up,” Felber said.

Cokinos pens ‘Fairy Godmother’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Enid Cokinos is putting her own spin on the timeless tale of “Cinderella.” “Who’s to say that Fairy GodPLAY mother doesn’t run a matchmaking business?” the Carmel resident said. “And that The Big Bad Wolf isn’t her landlord? I am proud to bring this twisted fairy tale back to the stage for IndyFringe Festival 2019 and to help the IndyFringe Theatre celebrate its 15th anniversary.” Cokinos’ one-act play, “Fairy Godmother & Associates,” was first performed at DivaFest 2016 in Indianapolis. It will be shown four times at the IndyFringe Basile Theatre, 719 E. St. Clair St., Indianapolis. “‘Fairy Godmother & Associates’ has been updated with additional dialogue to give the actors opportunities to draw even more laughs from the audience,” Cokinos said. “I also have a few new cast members and a new director. We are in a bigger theater with a new set design and the show includes several surprise props.” Spencer Elliott of Head Gap Productions is the director.

Afternoon workshops for aspring filmmakers will cover film budgeting, crowdfunding, screenwriting software, and more. An evening screening of films by Midwest women filmmakers begins at 6:30. For a complete list of events, visit MoriartyMedia.com.

Address: 15009 Gray Rd., Noblesville What to get: Epic Shrimp Burrito Price: $11 Mike G’s take: Whoa! The Epic Shrimp Burrito is packed with shrimp, tomato, rice, fries, salsa, picked onion and special sauce. Everything in the burrito complements each other, and each bite exudes the flavor from a different pocket. Everything is fresh. You can taste all the ingredients in every bite. All portions are filling. Lots of seafood in each order. What to try: • Epic Shrimp Burrito, $11 - Burrito packed with shrimp, tomato, rice, fries, salsa, picked onion and special sauce. Served with chips and salsa. • Power Bowl, $13 – A nice portion of shrimp, salmon and tilapia, brown rice, vegetables, avocado on a bed of lettuce with a really good dressing. If you’re going for a healthy meal, this is the way to go!

• Clobster Grilled Cheese, $15 - Exactly what it sounds like — a mix of crab and lobster and grilled cheese with a creamy herb sauce. Once you eat this, you can forget about eating a classic grilled cheese sandwich ever again. • Traditional Lobster Roll (market price) The classic lobster roll with huge pieces of lobster served on a warm bun with mayo and lemon. You can’t get fresh seafood for these prices anywhere. The restaurant prides itself on being fast/casual, providing fresh make-to-order meals in 10 minutes or less. For those not familiar with Noblesville, Slapfish owner Mark Weghorst is the son of Bill Weghorst, who owns Broccoli Bill’s. These two enterprises are the perfect marriage. Broccoli Bill’s is a neighborhood grocery that’s been serving fresh local produce for more than 20 years.

Fishers sisters develop singing By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Dean Hershman has watched his oldest daughter Saylor develop as a singer since she joined Indianapolis ChilCHOIR dren’s Choir. Hershman said his daughter has improved “leaps and bounds with the opportunities Saylor has been given.” “The friendships she has made go even beyond even her school friends,” Hershman said. Saylor, who will be a freshman at Hamilton Southeastern High School in August, said she enjoys the music she has learned and the places she has performed. Saylor joined the ICC’s advanced choir in July on a 10-day trip down the Danube River in July, visiting Germany, Austria, Hungary and Czech Republic. In the summer of 2018, the choir performed in Dallas and Memphis, Tenn. Saylor is glad her sister Lucy, 8, has already been in the program for a year. “I feel she will make a bunch of longlasting friendships and get the amazing opportunities I got and more starting at a younger age,” Saylor said. Saylor watched the Christmas special

It’s all in the details Commentary by Randy Sorrell and Bill Bernard “God is in the details” is an expression that alludes to the need for attention at every level of design BEYOND THE and execution in order B AC K D OOR to achieve anything of worth. Developing the initial layout of a new or remodeled space can seem (and frequently is) relatively easy, depending on the scope of work involved. Sometimes your available options for placing the major elements of a room are limited by economic or spatial requirements. There are only so many ways you can rearrange a hall bathroom. Although some of the major design decisions may be accepted as given, the attention needed and given to all the remaining details will determine the ultimate beauty and enjoyment of the space. Here are a few of the many details to consider, even when designing a “simple” hall bathroom. Cabinets, countertops, sinks, faucets,

cabinet hardware, backsplash, mirrors, lighting, electrical outlets, ventilation, flooring, toilet, tub/shower, shower enclosure, shower surround, tub/shower fixture, etc. Within each of these items is a subset of decisions that must also be considered and interwoven. Don’t ever settle for making decisions based on the way someone has always done it. There are always unique needs that should be pondered and addressed in order to make the space work best for you and your family. Enlisting the help of an experienced design professional who can guide you through these decisions is a great way to identify and focus on solving your unique wants and needs. Stay home, be moved.

Ready, set ... sit Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

The Monastery at Petra, Jordan. (Photos by Don Knebel)

Monastery worth the hike Commentary by Don Knebel Casual visitors to Petra in Jordan may assume that the carved monument just inside the entrance is the best that TRAVEL ancient city has to offer. A more imposing monument awaits anyone willing to climb a mountain to see it. In the fourth century B.C., the Nabateans, Arabs who controlled lucrative caravan trade routes, founded Petra as their capital in a remote mountain basin about 115 miles south of Amman, Jordan. By the first century B.C., the city covered several thousand acres and had a population of about 30,000. Its structures, many incorporating classic Greek architectural elements, were built both on the valley floor and carved into the faces of the mountains. The “Treasury,” once erroneously thought to contain gold, is the most famous of Petra’s structures, carved into a pink sandstone cliff at the end of the siq, a winding and narrow gorge that leads into the city from the east. Two miles or so northwest of the Treasury, a steep mountain path starting near

the Basin Restaurant leads to a clearing high above the valley floor. Donkeys are available for those not wanting or able to climb the more than 800 rock steps. The trek to the top, which takes about 45 minutes, passes by Bedouins selling souvenirs and refreshments and offers a spectacular view of the surrounding areas. The winding path ends at a massive building carved into the mountain crest that is taller and much wider than the Treasury. Dubbed the “Monastery” because of its later use as a church, it was probably originally a temple for worshipping Obadas, a deified Nabatean king. Celebrants congregated in the oncecolonnaded flat area in front of the temple. A modern café inside a cave across from the Monastery allows weary climbers to relax and enjoy the surroundings before heading back down.

DISPATCHES Clean shower doors — Tired of cleaning glass shower doors? Treat them with Rain-X. A coating of the stuff on shower doors will allow water to bead up and roll right off, leaving less residue behind. You’ll have to re-treat every few weeks, but it’s still easier than cleaning all that soap scum and gunk off your shower doors. Source: MSN.com

Remove deodorant marks — You’re getting dressed for work in a hurry and notice you’ve got those ugly white deodorant marks on your shirt from pulling it over your head. Grab a used dryer sheet and rub it over the marks and watch them vanish. Make sure you use an old dryer sheet. A new dryer sheet can make extra white marks on your shirt rather than erasing them.

There’s a supervolcano under Yellowstone National Park called the Yellowstone Caldera GRAMMAR GUY that last erupted in a big way approximately 640,000 years ago. The next time it erupts, it could potentially result in a large swath of North America getting covered in ash, creating a sustained volcanic winter that kills roughly half the world’s population. Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, scientists at the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory warn against overreacting to reports that this supervolcano is overdue for another full-scale eruption. In fact, they reassure us that “recurrence intervals of these events are neither regular nor predictable.” Oh, good. Let’s not anger it. OK, let’s set aside the looming volcano apocalypse to talk about the words “sit” and “set.” These two are easily confused and often get mistakenly interchanged. Set means to “put something in a specific place.” Set is (almost always) a transitive verb. Transitive verbs are always action verbs and they always require

direct objects. Direct objects act on another noun. Take the following sentence: We should set aside our differences; the big volcano could erupt at any time. “We” is the subject. “Set” is the transitive verb. “Differences” is the direct object. Sit means “to be seated.” Sit is an intransitive verb. Intransitive verbs are always action verbs and they do not require direct objects. Consider this example: You shouldn’t sit there; the supervolcano is directly beneath your feet! In the first complete thought before the semicolon, “you” is the subject and “sit” is the intransitive verb. The sentence has no direct object. Set requires another thing — you can set secret Oreos on top of the cabinet so your kids don’t know about them. When you sit, you sit yourself and nothing else. Depending on which version of the multiverse we inhabit presently, having a solid handle on “sit” and “set” could save us from total destruction.
