ALL-IN challenge starts now

By Dawn Pearson • news@currentincarmel.com

How much do people know about their neighbors. Hoosiers can learn everything about each other when they participate in the new initiative started by The Indiana Humanities competition called ALL-IN. Indiana Humanities connects people, opens minds and enriches lives by creating and facilitating program that encourage Hoosiers to think, read and talk. As explained on the website, ALL-IN is a “first-ofits-kind digital program and Indiana Humanities is challenging Hoosiers to take on new experiences in order to connect with each other, learn more about Indiana, and help make Indiana a better place to live. It is a digital platform that challenges people to experience something new and learn about Indiana to expand their knowledge and their opinions of their Hoosier state.” Hamilton County is partnering with Indiana Humanities to promote ALL-IN with celebrations and new experiences for Hoosiers to jump into and then tell about it on social media sites. “The Indiana Humanities started the ALL-IN initiative to encourage individuals to complete activities to help connect them to each other and their community in order to make Indiana even better. People from all over the state of Indiana have participated to complete a scorecard of 16 challenges in eight categories, Kate Burkhardt, communications coordinator of Hamilton County Tourism, Inc., said. The challenges are listed on the website: http:// www.indianahumanities.org/ALL-IN/. Here are some of the activities: • Listen to music from another country. • Try an ethnic restaurant. • Tell us why you love Indiana. • Share a photo of an Indiana hidden gem.

How it works 1. Complete a challenge and share your results via Facebook, Twitter or Instagram (it’s that easy). 2. Enter your zip code to connect with your community (if you want). 3. Brag about your scorecard and encourage others to go ALL-IN. 4. Explore how other Hoosiers are going ALL-IN by searching social media hashtags. 5. Most important: Have fun!

For the past six years Carmel has been home to the Safe Families For Children of Central Indiana and their annual banquet. charity They have helped countless families in need. With the help of her team assistant director Beth Kinney, helped 253 children last year find temporary homes. The program originated in Chicago in 2003. With the need of good homes for a community in crisis, founder and CEO David Anderson saw a need for Safe Families. When parents are dealing with unemployment, homelessness, or substance abuse they can turn to Safe Families in order to find temporary homes for their children while they seek the help they need. With a grant from the Oprah Winfrey Foundation in 2008, Anderson was able to expand his program beyond the Chicago’s city limits. Now parents here in Indiana can receive the help they need through this program without losing custody of their children. The annual banquet will be taking place at 6 p.m. Sept. 25 at Oak Hill Manor in Carmel. The public is welcome to join in the festivities and become a part of something special here in central Indiana. The theme this year is “What’s Your Story?” There will be no key speaker, but rather several families discussing their experiences with the program both as a host family and the

minutes with Hope Baugh By Melissa Hicks Meet Hope Baugh, Carmel Clay Public Library Young Adult Services manager, who has been a Carmel resident for more than 14 years. What has caught your interest of late? “I just finished going to a bunch of shows at the IndyFringe Theater Festival in Indianapolis. I saw a movie called ‘Chef’ (2014 comedy, produced and directed by and starring Jon Favreau) that was about a chef in a restaurant and a food critic trashed his presentation. That made him really angry, but it also made him think about what he was doing with his life. So it ended up being a good experience. That just gave me a lot of food for thought, not to pun on it.” What was the best thing you’ve eaten recently? “(The Mandarin House’s) shrimp with vegetables and rice and crab rangoon.”

What have you listened to recently that you liked? “Well, in the car I often listen to audiobooks instead of music. And I just finished a book called ‘Peter and the Starcatchers’ by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson. … I would highly recommend it.” What do you like most about the community? “The library. I think we have a great public library. And I’m not just saying that because I work here. A lot of what makes it great is the community support of the library. People use it. People are involved with it. It’s such a great feature in the community.” Five Minutes With is a recurring feature of Current in Carmel.

Foundation event helps funding

Editor’s note: This report is being reprinted from the Sept. 3 edition of Current in Carmel in order to correct errors.

By Tonya Burton • news@currentincarmel.com The St.Vincent Foundation Golf Outing, held at Crooked Stick Golf Course in Carmel on Aug. 25, marked the second of a trio of charity fundraisers held by the foundation. The Trilogy of Events - which includes Peyton Manning’s Children’s Hospital Celebration of Caring Gala (held in April), the golf outing, and the upcoming Saks Fifth Avenue Key to the Cure - raises more than $1.5 million each year. These cornerstone events provide much-needed support to Peyton Manning’s Children’s Hospital, medical education and St.Vincent Cancer Care. Sue Anne Gilroy, former Indiana secretary of state, is executive director/vice president of development for the St.Vincent Foundation and was a participant in the outing. The format was a shotgun start in which all groups of players tee off simultaneously from different holes. It is a popular format for charity events, as everyone

starts and finishes at the same time. This particular course has a reputation as one of the top 100 golf courses in the nation, according to Golf Digest and Golf magazines. The top three teams at the fundraiser were Northwest Radiology Network, with team members Pat Murphy, Brian Wiegel, Russ Williams and Kent Hanson; Pacers Sports and Entertainment; and Bradley Associates, with team members, Skander Nasser, Scott Davidson, Greg Krupinski and Kathy Arbuckle. Other participants, among many, included: St.Vincent CEO Jonathan Nalli, Archie Manning, outing Chairman Jim Powers, Dr. Brian Veerkamp, Mike Barth, Ken Haupt, Julie Siegler, Rob Baker, Tom Bale, Kevin Bowers, Julie and Sam Carmichael, Kent Hansen, Bruce Gordon, Rick Wallace, Eddie White, and Linda Wilgus. Additionally, two Pacemates handed out free Indiana Pacers caps to participants. Boomer, the Pacers’ mascot, entertained and interacted with players and guests. The St.Vincent Foundation is committed to supporting the health care needs of all, regardless of ability to pay. For more information, e-mail aehall@stvincent.org.

Incidents, arrests on the rise By Holly Demaree • news@currentinwestfield.com Last month, the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office held a drug forum at the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds to address the drugs rising incidents of drug use and arrests of local residents. The goal of the forum, according to law enforcement, was to educate, not lecture. Jeanine Motsay, a resident of Hamilton Co., began the forum by speaking about her son, Sam Motsay, who died on May 11 due to the use of the drug NBome. S.A. Louis Arona of the Drug Enforcement Agency said NBome is about the size of a quarter and is put on a piece of paper with intriguing designs on them. “I’ve been told NBome is like LSD except it is 60 times stronger; the effects are instant and can last up to 12 hours,” Arona said. Currently there is no antidote to NBome and is most commonly seen being used by people between the ages of 15 and 29. Major A. Dietz of the Hamilton-Boone County Drug Task Force focused on how these issues are directly affecting Hamilton County. The addicts that the task force comes into to contact with the most are addicted to heroin. “One-tenth of a sweet and low is all one needs to get high off of heroin,” he said. It would cost about $20 for that amount of heroin and some pay that three to four times a day. Dietz explains that this then causes some to

“I wanted to be able to walk in the park with my grandson again.” When I knew I was going to have knee replacement surgery, I wanted to have all my plans finalized in advance. That’s why I checked in to Westminster Village North for post-surgery rehabilitation. My brand new private rehab suite was like I was staying in a nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff. And the physical therapists are amazing. The new state-of-the-art equipment helped me get back on my feet quickly.

steal to help pay for this habit. “One person admitted to committing 30 crimes. That is 30 victims for opiate drugs,” said Dietz. State Sen. Jim Merritt (R-Indianapolis) spoke about how drugs are affecting the Hamilton County community and the importance of the Lifeline Law, which he was instrumental in getting signed into law. “I am not willing to say goodbye to a generation,” said Merritt. “I understand kids make mistakes but it should not end their life. So, let’s use our fear for something positive and talk to our kids.”

Now Alex and I enjoy our walks again.

Carmel company attracts top talent for supply chain summit Commentary by Adam Aasen A local consulting company is bringing together 75 major business leaders to Carmel for a business summit this week at economy the Renaissance Hotel. The week of events is hosted by Blue Horseshoe, a fast-growing firm that doesn’t always get a lot of attention. And not because its work isn’t important, but because not everyone understands what it does. Blue Horseshoe, a privately held solution services firm with several offices nationwide, including Carmel, specializes in supply chain management, which is the management of goods from company to another. Each company might represent another stage of production. For example, when you buy a laptop computer, there are so many different companies involved in getting you that product. The parts manufacturers, software engineers, wholesalers, distributors, retail stores. Before the age of the Internet, each company was nearly unaware what the others were doing in the process, but now – firms such as Blue Horseshoe – helps these companies communicate and interact to improve logistics. Now, Blue Horseshoe is bringing together

some great minds to discuss this process, which is of great importance to economic globalization. Attendees will discuss “how technology is helping companies address the growing complexities around distribution and fulfillment.” And if Carmel can position itself as the hub for this development, that’s great for the city. “The best minds of the industry gather here in Carmel, proving that Carmel is becoming recognized as a technology hot bed,” Executive Vice President Brian Cason said. “And Indiana, as a state, continues to be a leader in supply chain and distribution.” This is the third year that Blue Horseshoe has hosted this conference and this year will be the largest one to date. More than 75 people are expected to attend, representing more than 30 companies. They will come from 17 states, including both coasts (California and Oregon and New York and New Hampshire), as well as far south as Texas, Florida, and Alabama.

Ask CURRENT Q: A concerned Carmel parent asked Current: I started to fill out the information required by Carmel Clay Schools for parents who want to volunteer at their child’s school. The information said there was a $33 cost for the background check and it would be good for five years. This sounded high to me so I checked some other districts. In Zionsville, it is only $16.95. In Washington Township it is only $28. A lack of funds (or a credit/debit card) should not prevent parents from volunteering from their child’s school. I happen to be a teacher at an independent school and parents there are not charged at all for background checks. Why so much for a background check? A: According to the Indiana Dept. of Education, schools should always do background checks for volunteers, volunteer coaches and other unpaid community “helpers” in schools or at school-sponsored activities. Since July 2011, schools are recommended to require expanded background checks for criminal history of all teachers and employees at schools. This policy can, by state law, be extended to volunteers, which can charge a “flat contract fee.” According to the CCS Human Resources Director, Ryan Newman, the fee for the background checks for prospective employees and for parent volunteers is set by Safe Hiring Solutions, the company the school district uses for the reports. Zionsville Community Schools use a different contractor, where an expanded background check costs $16.95. Have a question for Current? Contact us at news@currentincarmel.com

City talks status of CRC budget

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

A fight has been brewing about whether the Carmel Redevelopment Commissions needs to have its budget approved government by the Carmel City Council. Some councilors have argued that new state law requires council “oversight” of redevelopment commissions, but Mayor Jim Brainard argues that “oversight” doesn’t mean “approval.” Brainard is backed up by State Sen. Luke Kenley, who wrote the law and removed the word “approval” to replace it with “review” when writing the bill. But now the Department of Local Government Finance is interpreting the law differently. DLGF General Counsel Michael Duffy sent an e-mail to Carmel legislators to give his organization’s opinion on the law. In his legalese, Duffy said that tax increment finance dollars – which make up the majority of the CRC’s budget – would be subject to review of

the council, but not approval. “However, since statute only allows for a review, this would not necessarily result in an official budget adoption,” he said. When it comes to operating expenses – such as staff salaries, benefits, supplies – Duffy claims these CRC budget items would be, “appropriated annually in the budget of the governmental unit.” “Operating expenses of a redevelopment commission or department that are not included with the annual budget require appropriation since they are ‘subject to the same laws, rules, and ordinances of a general nature that apply to all other commissions or departments of the unit,’” Duffy said, quoting the state law. According to its website, the DLGF is, “responsible for ensuring property tax assessment and local government budgeting are carried out in accordance with Indiana law.” Towns and cities submit their budgets to the department and if things are done improperly it’s possible the DLGF can force the municipality to revert to last year’s budget, which likely means a reduction in funds.

The secret’s out about the CSO Commentary by Jeff Worrell Perhaps you have not yet attended one of its concerts, but wonder if all you have heard regarding the superior volunteerism quality could be true. Or, maybe you didn’t even realize Carmel had one – assuming we were too close to Indy. Possibly, heaven forbid, you incorrectly presumed long-term commitments would make the cost insurmountable. Let me set the record straight. Yes, what you have heard about the Carmel Symphony Orchestra is true. It is amazing. Yes, for decades our community has supported a full Orchestra and enjoyed the benefits right here in our own backyard. Yes, single-concert tickets are available and well worth the reasonable price to experience for yourself what others are raving about. But could there be more in store for you than just sitting in the audience? How about helping this great organization plan the party which will celebrate 40 successful seasons? That is exactly what 40th Anniversary Luncheon Chairwoman Mary Eckard is hoping you would say. She said: “The CSO League is planning this event. But I realize some people don’t have the time to join a group, but might very well be interested in working specifically on this one event. I want to extend a personal invitation to anyone who might want to get involved slowly, to con-

sider this their opportunity.” The luncheon is scheduled for April 14 at Ritz Charles and is open to the public. The proceeds will benefit the annual Carmel Symphony Orchestra Family Fun! concert. This is the show where children are invited to sit on the Palladium stage right next to the musicians as they perform. During the luncheon, Ann Conrad, 38-year CHS Choral Director will perform for the crowd. She will also be honored for her longtime service to our community and for leading the singing Ambassadors of Carmel High School. Another opportunity to mix with the CSO League is coming up on Oct. 7 from 10 a.m. to noon. The event is “Musical Morning” at Oak Hill Mansion. Sean Chen, APA classical fellow, guest artist for the first concert of the season, will provide entertainment along with Aaron Shi. Aaron is the winner of the 2014 CSO Young Artist Competition. Anyone interested in becoming a part of the 40th Anniversary Planning Committee or who might want to attend any of the upcoming events should contact Eckard at 843-3800. Good day, Carmel.

Learning beyond university Commentary by Eric Ellis As a fairly recent college graduate, I find myself constantly searching for and craving further structured education. The proopinion cess of learning and improving on a day-to-day basis was enough to propel me through university despite the ever-increasing tuition price tag. And for those interested in pursuing higher education, many high school graduates and other adults have to forego collegiate-level learning because of the expense. There are, however, numerous options to pursue higher learning outside academia and within your wallet’s comfort zone. Trade School Indianapolis, which offers classes in virtually anything you could imagine, is one such example of a local, affordable opportunity. Since the Indianapolis branch’s inception in 2012, members of our communities have gathered around the downtown area to teach a wide array of classes – from the basics of knitting and cooking to more advanced and specialized topics like small-business branding and marketing. Since the classes are taught by people from our communities, the subjects are (quite literally) up to you! And the cost isn’t what you might expect. Instead of paying with an arm and a leg (or, you know, money), those who sign up for classes are asked by the instructor to bring in something

for barter. Items for barter are entirely up to the instructor of the class, so it often varies. Trade School Indianapolis actually gets two birds with one stone – engaged citizens have a forum to share their knowledge or skill sets, while those searching for extracurricular learning opportunities have a unique array of classes from which to choose. Opportunities such as these are rare and underappreciated in our busy schedules. Most days it can seem like we’re rushing from errand to errand and multitasking in between – none of which does the body or mind any long-term good. If you’ve been wanting to learn something new for a while, I challenge you to attend a class or two. Or, on the other hand, if you’re a skilled expert at one of your passions, volunteer your time and share it with others who may also be interested! You never know just what will come from the simple yet ancient art of passing wisdom on from one generation to the next.

Here are just a few of the bands performing during the inaugural PorchFest:

Trackless Performing at 3 p.m. Porch #4

Carmel’s newest festival will bring live music to neighbors’ front yards By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Carmel’s historic downtown will be transformed into an outdoor music festival on Sept. 14. And this inaugural free event, PorchFest, will Cover story give new meaning to the phrase “lawn seats.” Neighbors are encouraged to spread out blankets, open coolers and relax on someone’s lawn as they watch local bands perform on people’s porches. It’s a way to not only enjoy live music, but to explore the architecture of Carmel’s Old Town neighborhood just north of Main Street in the Arts & Design District. “The festival lets us showcase the musical talent in the community while, at the same time, it will expose many new people to ‘urban living, Carmel style,’” said city councilor Ron Carter, one of the members of the organizing committee. From 1 to 5 p.m., attendees can wander through the closed off streets and watch 43 musical acts on 20 different porches. After attending a conference, Mayor Jim Brainard became aware of similar events through the country and thought it would be the perfect fit for Carmel. He asked city councilor Sue Finkham to chair an organizing committee to bring the vision to life. Organizers include Finkham, Carter, Justin Moffett, Blair Clark, Heather Ramsay Clark, Austin Johnson, Jeff Worrell and others. Since it’s the first year for this festival, there are a lot of challenges. There’s not a huge budget, so all of the musical performances are being, in essence, donated by the artists. In the future, Finkham said they would love to provide honorariums, but that will take time to build. “We would also like to use this event to give exposure to up-andcoming young musical acts as they build their reputations,” she said. “We have lofty goals in the future but this first year we want to keep our costs low and highlight this wonderful area.” Staff at the Midwest School of Voice in the Arts & Design District helped recruit local

acts – from a wide variety of musical genres – to play for free. Then there was the task of getting the porches. Moffett, of the Old Town Design Group, had a hand in building many of these homes so he convinced neighbors to lend their private property for this public event. Residents are even donating their electrical costs. Finkham said it’s important to make sure homeowners have a great experience lending out their yards. Porch monitors will help ensure no flowers will be trampled or trash strewn on lawns. Although, she doesn’t expect any problems because there’s a sense of community that blossoms out of these PorchFest events. “I expect this event will really drive a lot of community pride and engagement,” Finkham said. The day of the event is when the real logistical tight rope act begins. Bands and artists have to set up their equipment in a very short period of time. There’ll be a small window for sound checks to keep everyone on schedule. That way there won’t be one performance bleeding into another within earshot. Old Town Carmel was a natural fit because the homes almost all have beautiful porches that are perfectly sized. “What made this area a win for the community was the wide variety of housing stock in the area. We’ve got some historical properties. We’ve got some brand new properties and everything in between,” Finkham said. “So we want to showcase what we call the ‘undiscovered streets of the Arts & Design District.’” Finkham said organizers considered other areas, such as the Village of West Clay or Prairie View, but there are a lot of infrastructural benefits to Old Town. It has ample parking in the arts district and access to the Monon Trail. Plus, nearby restaurants ease the need for food vendors for attendees. Brainard said he expects the event to be a success and could continue for years to come. “A lot of work goes into the first year of a festival like this,” he said. “But I have no doubt that people are really going to love it.”

Begging to keep Monon Lake

Apprenticeship is taking flight

Opportunity comes in all forms and fashions, we believe. When serial entrepreneur Ron Brumbarger, he of Bitwise Solutions fame, began Apprentice University, we were all ears and major proponents of the effort. In short, AU takes the “educational industrial complex,” against which we have railed multiple times, and sends it straight down the garbage disposal. So Brumbarger got the bright idea to deploy apprentices, for pay, at area businesses, ones where they could learn up close and determine whether a particular profession is right for them. Here at Current Publishing, we decided to become more involved, and rather than simply be a supporter of AU we decided we should have our own apprentice. Enter Melissa Hicks, an AU enrollee that was sent our way without a lick of journalism experience. She had writing samples, but they were more along the lines of term papers rather than news or feature stories. So, this was going to be a ground-up initiative, and we were eager to take her on. Paying forward, we call it. People helped us once upon a time, so why not do the same? Easy answer. Done. Melissa, a Sheridan resident and a homeschooled, enthusiastic young woman, began her apprenticeship with Current a couple weeks ago. We told her she would start slowly, and we would communicate regularly in an attempt to green her as much as we’re able to in the five-month run of the apprenticeship. As a matter of fact, in our Community section today, you’ll see the initial fruits of her labor, “5 Minutes With …”. It’s not rocket science, and we told her that, but it is a perfect way for a young reporter to get out of the office, make connections and learn how to question an interview subject so that person may be “introduced” to his or her fellow readers. So far, so good. Her intellect and drive will serve her well here and well beyond the apprenticeship. It’s going to be fun helping her develop in this industry. Wish her luck.

Manners expose character Commentary by Terry Anker Crass, boorish behavior that was once the hallmark of the uneducated and uninitiated has found its way into the halls of wealth and power. To be fair, it was probably always there to some extent, but many find that their privilege releases them from the obligation of courtesy rather than holds them to it. High-minded salons have be replaced by stinking sit-ins where discourse is replaced by looting and property offence. Well-conceived and drafted editorials become profane and poorly researched blog posts which spew diatribe unworthy of the public space. Fine tailoring and shoe polish are far rarer in an airplane cabin than cargo shorts and toe fungus displayed via flip flop. While the current ethos of American culture might cry out in opposition, some of us are willing to say that our nation has become too comfortable. We eat our food from paper bags while driving on the street. We talk to each other like sailors on shore leave. And, we share family secrets with strangers as we shout into our phones in the line at

Starbucks. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is quoted as saying, “Good manners can open doors that the best education cannot.” He may have a point. Simple polite, direct conversation carries one through all manner of hardship. Learning that our own ease is not the ultimate objective helps us develop self-restraint and patience. Polite interactions are not a silly veneer wrapping our society as a relic of the Victorian era. Manners expose and develop a person’s character. Please. Thank you. You are welcome. A firm and sincere handshake. Mr. and Mrs., it is good to meet you. Somehow, we’ve confused being rude for forthright, sloppy for comfortable, and dismissive for discerning. Polite company matters, and our move from it benefits no one. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.

– Leo Tolstoy

Carmel City Council members, I BEG YOU, please do NOT approve the H/I housing development project by the Monon Lake. It would completely destroy this beautiful, calm, serene area. The first thing a developer does is clear the land thus destroying what nature has taken years to produce. Let this land be used for and by the public. If this land is developed into a subdivision, I doubt that the taxes generated would be enough to maintain sanitary sewers, storm sewers, water mains and street repairs. Just east and a little north of here, a sanitary sewage overflow problem is trying to be solved. Are you all sure that such a problem would not develop at this site and pollute the lake? Are you sure that surface water drainage carrying salt from streets and driveways in winter, lawn treatment herbicides and pesticides in summer would not pollute the lake? Has the developer, the city, the county or the state had water from the lake tested for toxicity? If the water is toxic, it may not be safe for people to live near. Since this part of a natural watershed, either the county or the DNR have jurisdiction over the area and, “I BELIEVE,” will have to give their approval. This should be looked into before any City Council decision is made. I am, by far, not an expert on anything I have mentioned above, but I do believe that every possible aspect of this project should be considered before any decisions are made. Again, I beg you not to approve this development. Larry Verrill, Carmel

Ferguson is a mess, but not the one you think Publishers, I read your article on “Ferguson: Wrong on many levels.” You seem to be bias [sic] on the article. Yes, it is a mess. But answer the question, “Who created this mess?” And second, it was a character assassination. Why do you think the Brown family lawyer had to be talking to Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton? Haven’t we all at some time used a phrase that was created by someone else? It makes me wonder what the outcome would have been if a black police officer shot and killed an “unarmed” white teenager. This country is going backwards in race relations. It seems to me that ever since Barack Obama became president, there has been a war against black boys. Just saying. The one thing I do agree with you on is that looting is stealing and is wrong. I don’t condone it but some people do outrageous and unacceptable things when they are angry or frustrated.

Laborious resolution Commentary by Danielle Wilson Last week I left you with a cliffhanger … my youngest sister, in labor with her first baby, had just chucked a Dammit Doll at the flat screen. Here’s the drama-infused concluhumor sion, for your reading pleasure. After the doll “incident,” we headed to the hospital in downtown Chicago. She was triaged and scheduled for admittance. An hour later, still waiting for her to be moved to the labor/delivery floor, my mom and I received word that the doctors had changed shifts and the new one had overruled the admittance. Prego was headed back home. Of course Doctor No. 2 soon acquired a very unflattering nickname which I cannot repeat here, but which did make us all feel a tad bit better. After a good cry and a few choice words, Prego decided she was starving, so we drove to the nearest diner. Sometimes fries and a milkshake are the only answers. Back home, we all tried to rest, but because I was relegated to the couch in the sunny living room, sleep eluded me. I bounced back and forth between episodes of “Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders: Making the Team” and “Jerry Maguire.” Heaven! At one, another sister arrived, and together we forced Prego out of the house. We spent the afternoon hoofing around her neighborhood, hitting antique shops, toy stores and a very glamorous grocery store with two martini bars and a

jazz quartet right there in produce. By dinner, Prego wasn’t smiling anymore. The tears re-appeared at nine, as pain and fatigue joined forces to smite Prego’s attitude. She felt certain she should return to the hospital but was terrified they would send her home again. My other sister, a litigator by day, made it quite clear that as long as she was around, there’d be no such nonsense. Not on her watch! Are we clear? ARE WE CLEAR!? So at midnight, with Prego at six centimeters and an epidural SWAT team on standby, we excitedly awaited the birth. By 2:30 a.m. however, there’d been no progress, and No. 2 banned us from the room. Party over. The daddy-to-be texted a short while later that the baby was in distress and that Doctor No. 2, whose nickname we’d quietly repealed, had ordered an emergency C-section. No worries! This baby story has a happy ending. My sister and new nephew are doing great, and the Dammit Doll is resting easy knowing no further abuse will come to her. At least not until this parenting gig gets real, that is! Peace out.

Chita Rivera makes a comeback

By Jay Harvey • editorial@youarecurrent.com

She first captured America’s attention by creating the peppery Anita – with swirling skirts and attitude to spare – in “West Side Story” more than a half-century ago. Chita Rivera has epitomized pitheatre zazz ever since, and has a couple of Tony Awards as well as the 2009 Presidential Medal of Freedom to confirm her special qualities as an entertainer. Now Actors Theatre of Indiana is bringing her to Carmel in the one-woman show that debuted in New York to celebrate her 80th birthday last year. Her current national tour of “Chita: A National Celebration” reacquaints audiences with the stamp she put on such shows as “West Side Story,” “Sweet Charity,” “Chicago,” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” Born in Washington, D.C., to a musician and a government worker, Rivera started moving toward her triple-threat stature as an entertainer as an 11-year-old ballet student. Her success led to a scholarship to the American School of Ballet, headed by George Balanchine. Rivera’s student move to New York positioned her to win the audition for the role of the heroine Maria’s best friend, Anita. They are the principal female figures on the Puerto Rican side of the show’s tragic rivalry between two street gangs. The conflict and its outcome are based loosely on Shakespeare’s romantic tragedy, “Romeo and Juliet.” Anita’s show-stopping number celebrating her community’s advantages in its new homeland, “America,” was the vehicle for establishing the young star’s rise. She repeated her 1957 triumph in the role in London, then went on to be fea-

tured in a host of other Broadway productions. Two of them – “The Rink” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman” – brought her two Tony Awards. Among Rivera’s recent productions on Broadway are “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” and “The Dancer’s Life” – the latter a Terence McNally work written in her honor. This summer she recreated for the Williamstown Theatre Festival her starring role in “The Visit,” a much-reworked Kander-and-Ebb musical version of Friedrich Durrenmatt’s play about revenge and greed in a small European town. She was cited for her career achievements

with a Kennedy Center Honor in 2002, becoming the first female Hispanic recipient of the award. Among Rivera’s accomplishments away from the stage was running a New York City restaurant named for her between 1988 and 1994.

and some people say ‘Spamalot’ is the funniest musical they’ve ever seen!” In addition to staging Broadway-caliber productions throughout the last 100 years, Civic has given central Indiana actors an opportunity to refine and display their skills while also introducing theatre to children through its educational programs. “Theatre isn’t like fine art where you just need a paint brush or canvas,” Sorbera said. “You also need lights, sets, curtains and a stage. For 100 years, Civic has been able to provide all of this to central Indiana performers.” Civic’s Mainstage season will open with the high-energy musical “Swing!” on Sept. 5. The show will run until Sept. 20. Showtimes are Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 20 at 5 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit CivicTheatre.org or call 843-3800.

Gallery Walk to focus on glass art

Shop Indy Kids Sale at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds in Noblesville!

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Most people grew up learning how to sketch drawings or paint with watercolors in art class. But this month’s Gallery Walk through art the Carmel Arts & Design District will focus on a medium many aren’t familiar with – glass. Nancy Keating, one of the featured local artists at ArtSplash Gallery, has been working on glass mosaics since 1997. She said there’s something unique about working with this fragile medium. “The reflection and the light make the colors really intense,” she said. “The intensity of the color when the light reflects off of glass is amazing.” The Gallery Walk is free and will be held from 5 to 9 p.m. on Saturday Sept. 13. Lisa Pelo, a renowned hot blown glass artist in Indiana, will have her work on display at the Hoosier Salon. Just across the street though, visitors can pay $25 to make their own beautiful glass-blown paperweight at the PNC parking lot. The Indiana Design Center will display exhibits from the Indiana Glass Trail, a showcase for Hoosier artisans who specialize in glass artwork in over 20 counties. Along with Pelo and Keating, artists Ben Johnson and Pam Niccum will also be on display. The Chinese Mooncake Festival will also be going on near the Monon Trail and Main Street

Monsters: No Mexican masterpiece Commentary by Collin Stroup I decided to take a bit of a break from the theater this week and take a chance on a Netflix movie I’d been meaning to watch. movies The film ‘Monsters’ had been recommended to me on several movie lists and by friends so this seemed a good of a time as any to check it out and share my thoughts. ‘Monsters’ takes place in the not too distant future in Mexico. Six years prior to the start of the film, a space probe carrying samples from another planet crashed down in Mexico where alien life forms began to develop. The story follows Andrew, a photojournalist and Sam, the daughter of Andrew’s boss as they attempt to get back to the U.S. The movie is reminiscent of a classic sci-fi film in that it’s not action-based, but more of a slow burning social commentary. It offered up a creative look at how humanity deals with this sort of situation and it’s easy to see why Gareth Edwards was approached after this to helm the recent Godzilla movie. The making of the movie is pretty remarkable as well since it was basically just the director and actors going and shooting around Mexico and asking locals to be in the film. It hits a couple slow spots at the beginning and late into the movie that may lose some peoples’ interests, but I felt that the worldbuilding and character development were inter-

esting enough to keep going. I think this movie would have worked better as a short film, but I appreciated its ambition and was glad I stuck with it. ‘Monsters’ wasn’t a masterpiece, but was certainly an interesting and thoughtful change of pace to the sci-fi films we see in films today.

B&B announces new season editorial@youarecurrent.com

It will be a season of high flying, snappy dancing, belly laughing and endless excitement as Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre presents a fabulous lineup in 2015 that includes two new protheatre ductions to its stage. With a variety of shows to choose from, the 42nd Season can be described as odd and crazy – and even creepy and kooky - but entertaining. Dec. 27 through Feb. 2 The season gets off to a solid start with the classic Neil Simon comedy: “The Odd Couple,” which marks its 50th Anniversary in 2015. Two Beef & Boards favorites will star in this tale of mismatched roomates, with Jeff Stockberger as the easygoing Oscar Madison and Eddie Curry as the uptight Felix Ungar, who moves in with Oscar after his marriage falls apart. Feb. 12 through April 4 Beef & Boards will be filled with all things Gershwin as it presents the all-American musical “Crazy For You.” Winner of three Tony Awards and based on the 1930 musical “Girl Crazy,” the story centers around Bobby Child, who is sent to Nevada to foreclose on a theatre. But when he falls in love with the local postmistress, he devises a plan to save the theatre. Songs include “I’ve Got Rhythm,” “Someone to Watch Over Me,” “They Can’t Take That Away From Me.” April 9 through May 10 A parody of American musical comedy of the

1920s, “The Drowsy Chaperone” will make its Beef & Boards debut. The show won five Tony Awards in 2006, including best original score. A middle-aged musical theatre buff plays the record of his favorite musical and the show comes to life – with two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, gangsters posing as pastry chefs, and an intoxicated chaperone.

Discover how Indiana innovators played a role in shaping the nation’s automotive industry during the inaugural conner prairie Festival of Machines at Conner Prairie Sept. 13 and 14. The display includes vintage cars, military aircraft, tractors, steam engines and construction equipment. Visitors can meet racecar driver Pippa Mann, learn about building soap-box derby cars and take a ride in a Dallara IndyCar. “The real story is just how important Indiana’s automotive history is Indiana car companies were prolific. There was so much talent and so much ingenuity that Indiana could have rivaled Detroit,” said Chris Petrelli, director of programs and education at Conner Prairie. A select group of classic cars will be featured throughout the weekend festival, highlighted by well-maintained models, such as a 1933 Marmon Sixteen Victoria Coupe, 1914 Stutz Bearcat and a 1927 Cadillac Duel Cowl Phaeton. “Without a doubt, the 500 brought those innovative minds to Indiana, and propelled the entire auto industry forward,” Petrelli said. Planning for the large-scale, all-things-transportation festival began months ago. Petrelli and his team look for ways to highlight the scientific concepts to be informative and educational as well as entertaining. “In addition to getting to see vintage automo-

biles and machines not usually seen, kids also get hands-on activities, like being able to design a vehicle,” said Petrelli. Mann will appear daily to meet fans, take photos, and sign autographs. Mann will also share information about her partnership with Glass Hammer Racing, which seeks to engage young women interested in motorsports careers as well as other science, technology, engineering and math-related careers. Admission to Conner Prairie’s Festival of Machines is $15 for adults, $14 for seniors age 65 and older and $10 for youth ages 2 through 12. Active and veteran military personnel with proper identification will be admitted free. For more information, visit www.connerprairie.org or call 776-6000.

The Ten Commandments of tailgating Tailgating by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley (Here are the first five commandments; the rest will follow next week.) I. Thou shall plan ahead Nothing is worse than a hap hazard tailgate party. You need to coordinate with others to settle on menu items and the assignment thereof. It’s also important to decide who brings what equipment. A four-person tailgate doesn’t need two heavy-duty grills and eight folding chairs. II. Thou shall arrive early and not rush Tailgating is a relaxed time for friends to eat, drink and socialize. You are back on campus or at a professional stadium for the day. Enjoy yourself like a grown-up. Don’t cause stress by having to rush in the setting-up of your equipment. Even more important (for food safety, see Commandment 9), don’t rush your food preparation. III. Thou shall not diet Nothing ruins the fun at a tailgate party more than a vocal self-appointed judge of cholesterol, calories, triglycerides and anything else that can be brought to attention as you take the second bite of some scrumptious food. Sure we all have to watch what we eat, but many medical people say that you can eat most anything in moderation. So, even the most sinful deserts are allowed if one doesn’t overdo things. The food at a tailgate party should be similar to foods you’d serve on your patio or deck when you have guests over for a cookout. IV. Thou shall display your colors Your tailgate party should be a festive tasteful expression of school and or team spirit. If you would decorate your yard for a Fourth of July cookout, shouldn’t you do the same for a tailgate party at your stadium? Show your colors. You can buy flags and banners to fly over your tailgate and clothes that are in school/team colors with the latest super graphics and logos. V. Thou shall not be boorish If you would have guests to your house or were to visit the home of a friend, there would be a certain accepted cordial behavior. The same cordiality should be present at your tailgate site.

Tangy, spicy and creamy flavor profiles are all represented in this recipe for Fiery Deviled Eggs. (Submitted photo)

Be kind to visitors from the other school/teams. Thank them for coming and offer them a drink. Nothing will do more to spread good cheer than a warm greeting from you and the offer of a drink. They will melt. Here’s a good warm-weather recipe for everyone’s favorite dish, deviled eggs. FIERY DEVILED EGGS Ingredients: 12 large eggs, room temperature, 1 tablespoon vinegar, lettuce leaves, 3 tablespoons Frank’s RedHot original cayenne pepper sauce, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons sour cream, 1/2 cup minced celery, 1/4 cup minced red onion, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder Directions: Place eggs in a single layer in bottom of large saucepan; cover with water. Add vinegar to water. Bring to a full boil. Immediately remove from heat. Cover; let stand 15 minutes. Drain eggs and rinse with cold water. Set eggs in a bowl of ice water; cool. Servings: 12 servings (about 1 1/2 cups filling) Prep Time: 40 Cook Time: 20 Joe Drozda is an author about sports and food.

Getting ahead of macular degeneration Q: My mother and aunt both have macular degeneration. Am I likely to get it also? - Jan S., Noblesville A: Age-related macular degeneration is one of the leading causes of vision loss and blindness in the adult population. It has two forms: Dry, or atrophic (90 percent), and wet, or exudative (10 percent). Heredity is one risk factor, but others include age, gender, ethnicity, UV exposure, smoking, diet and nutrition and heart disease. Obviously, some of these factors we can control while some we cannot. I do recommend patients eat a diet that includes lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, especially dark-green leafy ones like spinach, as well as take a daily vitamin/mineral supplement that includes lutein. It is also advisable to not smoke and to avoid secondhand smoke. One very important thing to note: I have several patients with mild-to-moderate dry macular degeneration who have no symptoms. They are correctable to 20/20 vision and would never know they have the disease if not for a comprehensive eye examination. Once signs are

detected in the eye, we are now able to run DNA testing to establish how much and what type of genetic link a patient may have to the disease. Regular eye health exams are important since early detection for AMD allows for more effective treatment options and a better prognosis.

Active managers aren’t conventional Commentary by Adam Cmejla If you are a disciple of “active management” in the investment world, then you are a strong believer in the notion that gifted finance and talented fund managers can identify stocks that will rise in price and turn away from those that will decline in value. In theory, they can identify – before anyone else and before any market decline – when it’s the best time to get in and out of the market. Ergo, their mission is to “beat the market.” Their expertise, skills, and goal to outperform is used to justify their (usual) higher costs and turnover (thus potentially higher tax consequences) as compared to traditional “indexing” or other, more evidence-based investment philosophies. The data, however, speaks otherwise. Standard & Poor’s released its year-end 2013 “S&P Indices Versus Active Funds Scorecard” that compares the performance of actively managed mutual funds to their S&P benchmark indices. For the five years that ended on Dec. 31, 73 percent of large-cap domestic funds, 78 percent midcap funds, 67 percent, and 80 percent REIT funds underperformed their benchmark indices. Almost two thirds actively managed domestic

stock mutual funds underperformed the S&P 1500 total stock market over the past five years. (For the complete study, check out my tweeted link @acmejla). I prefer to call “actively managed” the conventional approach to investing. There are four themes that I derive from conventional investing. First, it relies on predictions about an individual stock or investment and how it is going to perform in the future. Not only that, but you’re in essence betting that you know more about where that stock is going to go than the collective knowledge of the entire market! Think about it: if you were right, and everyone else agreed with you, then the price would already be what you thought it was going to be. Simple economics.

Godby relocates discount store

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

Godby Home Furnishings has opened a discount location near downtown Noblesville that replaces its Westfield clearnow open ance center that was forced to close in June 2013 to make way for the U.S. 31 reconstruction. “Westfield was our home office before it was taken by the state. There is a warehouse still there behind the (old) store that is a distribution center for all of our stores,” owner Jeff Godby said. “It is a furniture outlet and clearance center. It’s Godby quality at a lot less money.” The newest Godby location offers a variety of discounted furniture and mattresses, including close outs, one-of-a-kind pieces, floor models, canceled special orders and scratch-and-dent furniture. Godby estimated that the store includes $400,000 worth of furniture for sale. “We have a huge amount of bedding, box springs and mattresses. It is a great place for starting price point mattresses. Thirty percent of the business is mattresses,” he said. On the furniture side, the store offers bedroom, living room, dining room, home, office and entertainment pieces. “Everything you would find at a regular Godby store but the clearance version. Things that have to be liquidated,” Godby said. “It’s the same quality as big name stores but $5,000 to $6,000 off because they are floor models.”

Owner Jeff Godby opened Godby Discount Furniture & Mattress, 130 Logan St., Noblesville, a year after the Westfield clearance store was closed as part of the U.S. 31 expansion. (Photo by Robert Herrington)

Jim Godby founded the store in 1974 in Sheridan. Jeff Godby came to the family business in 1992, which has grown to four locations and employees more than 100 people. “It started with my mom and dad in Sheridan and come a long way in the past 40 years,” God-

Step inside The Warehouse By Amanda Foust • news@currentincarmel.com Carmel is known for its Arts & Design District and has always been proud to feature local, national, and even global art now open forms of all kinds. A new venue called The Warehouse was built to create an atmosphere that will transform entertainment within Carmel. Owner of The Warehouse, Blair Clark, said, “There will be local and national musicians and there will be shows for anyone interested in music.” Nicole O’Neal, Director of Operations, expressed that The Warehouse is a multi-use venue primarily for live music but also meant to be used to rent out for parties, meetings and other events. The Warehouse will provide catering and a bar area to renting parties. The space capacity holds 150 people, but the area is versatile enough to host smaller parties comfortably for seated events as well. The Warehouse is featuring their first event for their soft opening called ART & HARMONY: 1st Inaugural Gallery Show on Saturday, Sept. 13 from 5 to 9 p.m. Co-owner Heather Clark said, “We are not sure how often we will be doing these events, but our goal is to show the marriage of music and fine arts. We have a list of 20 different artists represented. There is a number of different works from a number of different artists. It will be a very exciting show and it’s free to the public.”

A new music venue is opening in Carmel. (Submitted photo)

O’Neal said, “There will be such a wide range of art at this show. It is very inspiring to see all the art from our community. We have so many people to showcase here and so many different ways to do it.” The Clarks are both musically gifted and have spent many days playing second fiddle to the food and drinks within bars and restaurants while they are placed in a corner to perform their music. These experiences inspired The Warehouse venue. Heather said, “One of the questions we always get from artists is ‘where do I go play?’ In a lot of cases, there aren’t a lot of answers to these questions.”

She has realized that there aren’t a lot of places for musicians to play where they can be the main focus. It is very difficult for many artists trying to get themselves out there to develop, and there are few places that can do it at a level of professionalism The Warehouse is able to offer. Located at 254 1st Avenue SW, adjacent to the Monon Trail and in between Carmel’s old post office and the old fire station. For more information about The Warehouse and for bookings and rental information, call 661-1760 or visit www. liveforthemusic.com. There is an e-mail list on the website to be notified about events people can sign up for as well as a calendar of future events.

FORGIVENESS TALK

Janie Tuttle French and her husbanc Michael are making waves in Texas. (Submitted photo)

Carmel native goes nuts in Texas By Terri Spilman

It has been said that Texans are known for their love of sweet and spicy foods, big flavors as some may say. And big flavors are exactly business what Frenchie’s Fabulous Nut Company, owned by transplant and Carmel High School graduate (class of 1982), Janie Tuttle French, and her husband Michael, are doing. The couple’s Original Frenchie’s Fabulous gourmet nut mix recently made the top 25 list in The Quest for Texas Best locally made food competition sponsored by H-E-B, a San Antonio-based independently owned food retailer with more than 350 stores located throughout the southwest. Frenchie’s Fabulous made it through 600 contest submissions and two qualifying rounds in the competition in which H-E-B Business Development Managers chose the 25 finalists for their taste and flavor, customer appeal, value, uniqueness, market potential and differentiation from current goods at most H-E-B stores. Michael devised the recipe for the gourmet nut mix which is hand-tossed and roasted with a combination of cayenne pepper, brown sugar and molasses after watching a story about famous chef Giada de Laurentiis’ favorite nut mix on the Food Network’s show, “The Best Thing I Ever Ate.”

“Michael was inspired by the nut mix, however, having been a chef for over 25 years, he knew he could improve on the recipe,” Janie said. “So he set about gathering the very best ingredients and created batch after batch of nuts until he could deem the final batch perfect.” With no store front, the couple has rented commercial kitchen space and has sold their product primarily online through the company’s website. Now with the exposure gained through the competition, they are in negotiations to appear on H-E-B grocery shelves and are hopeful their products expand beyond the southwest. “We are in the process of finding capital to finance our own commercial kitchen and to purchase large amounts of jars, labels and ingredients for our first big H-E-B order. From there, we might consider creating a second product, but we’re trying to take it one step at a time,” Janie said. While Janie has lived in Texas for 28 years now, there are no plans to permanently shake her Hoosier roots. “I love it here, but when people ask me where I’m from, Indiana will always be my answer. Always,” she said. For more information on Frenchie’s Fabulous Nut Company or to place an order, visit www. frenchiesfabulous.com or call 214-762-2561.

Six factors that influence a dog when it gets loose

Commentary by John Mikesell

This is the beginning of the holiday season. Kids are going back to school and there is a lot of hustle and bustle. There is a travel chance your dog may be a little nervous or stressed out with everything that’s going on. You need to be extra careful or your pet may just slip out the door. Here are a few factors that influence a lost dog in case yours gets loose: Temperament of the dog. Friendly dogs are the most likely to walk up to the first person they see, be rescued and either returned to the owner, taken to a shelter or “adopted” by the finder. Aloof dogs are more likely to avoid strangers until they get hungry, and may travel a considerable distance before someone befriends them. Fearful dogs are likely to travel farther and actively avoid contact with humans, even when hunger calls. Sometimes the only way to capture

a fearful dog is with the use of a humane trap. Circumstances of the disappearance. A dog who wanders out of curiosity is likely to

stay close to home and wander back in fairly short order. One who bolts from fear can run for several miles in blind panic. Terrains. Wide, open spaces are more conducive to distance travel than residential neighborhoods, where fences create barriers to travel. Appearance of the dog. “Warm fuzzy” dogs are quicker to be rescued than large, aggressiveappearing dogs. Someone who may quickly stop to pick up a Cocker Spaniel or a furry Labradoodle may think twice before inviting a roaming Rottweiler into her car. Purebred dogs may also be picked up more quickly – as people sometimes mistakenly thinks it’s normal for mixed breeds to be roaming the streets but a purebred dog “must belong to someone.” Weather. A dog in a blizzard or a driving rainstorm is likely to seek shelter. A dog wandering in 95-degree heat will seek a cool spot and settle down. A dog on a sunny autumn day may happily chase deer and wander farther than one inhib-

ited by bad weather conditions. Population densities. It’s just common sense that more people there are around, the more likely it is that your dog will be seen and reported to you, or rescued by someone who calls you or the local shelter. If you lose your dog in a wilderness area and she has wide open spaces in which to travel far, and is relying on only you to find her. What you can do? Make sure you have several forms of identification solidly attached to your dog or cat. We strongly recommend using implanted microchip ids, too. Put your dogs name on their id so they can be as comfortable as possible, with their finder.

Grammar mix-up in the key of ‘D’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Do you know the difference between “discreet” and “discrete?” What about “defuse” and “diffuse?” “Dual” and grammar Guy “duel?” Hopefully after today, the answer to all three questions will be a resounding, “Yes!” Let’s start with last things first today and talk about “dual” and “duel” – two words I see mixedup on a regular basis. Now, I think you know this: “Dual” means having two parts, while “duel” means a fight or contest between two people. Why do people mix them up? I’m not sure, but people apparently can’t tell the difference between Matt Damon and Mark Wahlberg too. (Marky Mark led the Funky Bunch! Come on guys!) Our other two mix-ups make more sense to me. Let’s talk about “discreet” and “discrete” first. Someone who is “discreet” is careful not to attract attention. You might discreetly slip a Val-

entine’s Card into your high school crush’s locker (or text them anonymously … I’m not sure what the kids do these days). “Discrete,” on the other hand, means “individually separate and distinct.” With “defuse” and “diffuse,” I see how some confusion could occur. “Defuse” literally means to remove a fuse from an explosive, but is figuratively used to mean reducing the danger or tension from a situation. “Diffuse” means to spread out or disperse. Based on those definitions, you might think “diffusing the hostility in a room” would be an appropriate use of “diffuse,” but it’s not. When you use “diffuse,” think of particles, like a cloud of dust diffusing into the air. Look at that: Six definitions in 300 words or less. Can’t beat the bang for the buck on that, huh?

Ahmedabad is the world’s third-fastest growing city. Despite needing residential land, the Indian government has reserved travel prime real estate along Ahmedabad’s central river as a memorial to the man Indians revere as the Father of the Nation. In 1915, after working 21 years in South Africa as a lawyer, Mohandas Gandhi came to Ahmedabad to employ his ideas of non-violent resistance in support of Indian independence. In 1917, he acquired 36 acres of wasteland along the west bank of the Sabarmati River and built an “ashram” on the previously snake-infested site. He and his followers lived together at the ashram seeking truth while practicing Gandhi’s ideals of discipline, chastity, religious tolerance, self-reliance and non-violence. One of Gandhi’s objectives was demonstrating that Indian people did not need to rely on the British, so he and his followers made their own cloth and grew their own food. In 1930, while living at the ashram, Gandhi organized a 241-mile march to the sea protesting the British salt tax. The event eventually led to the arrest of 60,000 people and galvanized the Indian public in support of independence. After the march, the British government

seized Gandhi’s ashram. India received its independence in August 1947. Five months later, before Gandhi could return to the ashram, he was assassinated by a Hindu nationalist who thought his teachings were too tolerant of Muslims. The government now maintains the tranquil, tree-filled grounds of the “Sabarmati Ashram” as a shrine to the person Indians now call “Mahatma,” the Great Soul. Some of Gandhi’s simple personal possessions are exhibited in the small house where he lived for 12 years with his wife, Kasturba. A museum houses his letters, writings and pictures and displays some of his most famous teachings, including, “If blood be shed, let it be our own” and “Forsake not truth, even unto death.” The museum also displays the folding spinning wheel that Gandhi encouraged Indians to use to reduce their dependence on British imports. The Sabarmati Ashram is Ahmedabad’s most popular destination. For admirers of Gandhi’s philosophy of tolerance and non-violence, it should be part of any trip to India.

Stretch your design time

Commentary by Vicky Earley

Once you have made the decision to pull your home together with the help of a design professional, it is time to do some decorating homework. You can glean far more from your designer’s visits if you have done some easy prep work in advance. Determine your budget This information is critical to your designer in that it determines what sources can be utilized. To show you something way beyond the scope of your budget is frustrating and a waste of time while proposing something that is way below your expectations will be a huge disappointment. What is your style? You may not have a name for it but you can probably recognize a room that takes your breath away in a photograph. Hang on to those pictures as those files of rooms and furnishings that “wow” you are a jump start for your design project! What has to stay and what can go? Be realistic here. Please don’t tell your designer that everything can go when, in reality, your husband, is attached at the hip to his leather recliner and secretly, your heart would be broken if grandma’s rocker were removed. How long do you plan on living in your home? If you are planning to reside in your home for many years to come, the design result will

picking up before a first visit. Your designer can develop creative solutions. If you need space for a particular function, perhaps to pay bills or deal with mail, your decorator can make allowances for this in the design. Decorating a single room or an entire home can be an overwhelming while coupled with feelings of delight and excitement. With a bit of fore-

improve the quality of your life and will be an investment towards the point when you do place your home market. If, however, you plan to move again in a few years, choose design materials that will have wide appeal for home sale profitability without sacrificing design personality. What are the functions for your new space? Your decorator will want to know how you plan to utilize your new space and how you live. Flooring options, for example, are recommended according to how your space will function. Some carpet fibers are more durable than others and will wear better over time. Will your new room function as a dual space such as a home office and guest room? It is a good idea to mention to your designer any potential changes that you anticipate for your future such as kids and pets. Any organizing issues? One thing that we ask of clients is to avoid

Space with capacity and more

Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Some outdoor living spaces have more capacity than others. Capacity to drive future spaces and how they are imagined, indoors designed and lived in. The attention to detail on this deck, stone columns, exposed aggregate path slabs and especially the pergola, is stately and punctuated. This is space has that capacity, and more. As is often the case, shade was a dependable part of the conversation, as was craftsmanship, color, drama and viewpoints. The overhead pergola is like none we have created and completely driven by Mr. Grisham’s brilliant design. The tapered corner columns that effortlessly “grow” from the natural stone pillars have a distinct craftsman style echoed from the interior of the exquisitely detailed home. Doubled 2”×12” manufactured beams were required to confidently span the distance between columns and carry the beautifully rugged 4”×8” overhead lumber. The beams were subsequently wrapped with cedar producing massive 6”×14” stately beams. For shade, additional 4”×4” units were layered on top which choreograph into perfect squares, boxed overhead. Simple beveled end details were anything but simple to produce and again repeated home details. The framed lake views are magnificent and championed with recessed lighting, prompting the entire space to glow at night. It is an outdoor

room. A Green Egg and separate grill are employed often and the new patio furniture, cushions and wall art were carefully planned – and the details show! Mrs. Grisham said, “We love the additional living space provided by our new deck and pergola. The hardscape complements the style of the house, which together with the new landscape beds, provide a vibrant and functional access to the deck.”

Every outdoor living space offers a story and has the capacity to change how you live, entertain and how you enjoy the outdoors. What story does your space tell?

Center of it all: The kitchen island Commentary by David Decker The modern kitchen fulfills many different roles. It’s a family gathering place, a house party hotspot, a homework help center, indoors a storage headquarters and a five-star restaurant. For many homeowners, the functionality of a kitchen begins with a well-designed island. Islands are ideal for a variety of kitchen tasks including cooking, baking, cleanup, storage, informal dining, entertaining party guests and more. And because they can be accessed from multiple sides and heights, it’s much easier to gather around the kitchen island than the kitchen table. There are many ways to design a functional kitchen island, but let’s take a look at a few of the must-have features. First, you’ll want to decide what you are going to use the island for most frequently, and use those functions to devise your design and storage plan. For example, if you would like to use the island as a food prep station, include outlets for small appliances, a prep sink and storage for cooking utensils such as cutting boards, knives and mixing bowls. Or if you are using the island as a dining area, make sure the countertop height is designed to fit standard chairs or stools. The island should be crafted to fit your utilitarian needs. Because most islands require quite a bit of space, it’s important to strategically plan your design. You may want to select a moveable island instead of a built-in, station-

ary one. Be sure to select an island size and style that won’t overwhelm your kitchen. If you choose to include seating with your island, you’ll want to pick chairs or stools that don’t get in the way of the workflow. Otherwise, your kitchen may become difficult to navigate. You’ll also want an effective cabinetry design. Creating more built-in storage means your island will appear more spacious, inviting and tidy. Within your cabinetry, try installing lazy susans, pullout shelves, or deep drawers to maximize the space. You can even install appliance garages to store toasters, mixers, juicers and more, so that they are out of sight when not in use. There are

even cabinetry designs that feature built-in spice racks, trashcans or utensil organizers, so you can use every last inch of available space. The key to creating a savvy kitchen island is planning. Use every square inch effectively and you’ll be surprised at how your kitchen space can be transformed.
