CFD opens Fire Station 44 By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Carmel Fire Dept. kicked off National Fire Prevention Week in a big way with the grand opening of Fire Station public safety 44. City officials and community members gathered at the station, 5032 E. Main St., Oct. 9 for a ceremony, tours and the official uncoupling of the hose. Firefighters began working out of the station in late September. The 14,000-square-foot facility replaced the original structure built in 1980. It is designed with the latest technology but honors tradition with an exterior reflecting firehouses of the early 1900s. The livable areas are approximately 4,500 square feet. The firefighters who work at the station partnered with the architect to design the facility to meet their specific needs and desires, a first in Carmel. The architect used a handwritten sketch from the firefighters when designing the exterior and referenced mock floor plans they created. Among the firefighters’ requests was a fire pole, upstairs living areas, a large workout area and arched bay doors. “We believe it is fitting that those who work at this station had input on how it was built,” CFD Chief David Haboush said at the grand opening. During construction, firefighters were stationed at a nearby home, and they used Mohawk Elementary School to park vehicles. This arrangement presented extra challenges as they

prepared to move into the new station, CFD firefighter and spokesman Tim Griffin said. “These guys not only moved into a station, they also moved out of a house that they have to get back into working order,” Griffin said. “They were able to do all of that while having multiple company trainings and still making runs for the community. These guys have really worked hard.” The $3.5 million station was constructed without a tax increase. Clay Township Trustee Doug Callahan, former CFD fire chief, said that was possible in part because stations 42 and 46 were paid off last year. He also said CFD made sure not to let anything go to waste, with the previous facility’s HVAC system, doors and other items being moved to the new maintenance/training facility, which recently opened at 106th Street and Gray Road.

Committee cuts raises for elected officials By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com A Carmel City Council committee has voted to recommend a 2 percent raise for elected officials, a much smaller city council increase than originally proposed. The Carmel Finance, Utilities and Rules Committee met Oct. 10 to discuss a proposed salary ordinance that included a $50,000 raise for the mayor, a 40 percent increase, and a 28 percent pay increases for city councilors. Each of the six council Worrell members present at the meeting said they could not support the raises as presented. “We got elected knowing what we make,” Councilor Kevin “Woody” Rider said. “I didn’t do it for the money. If we’re going to claim that some raises are excessive, we have to include ourselves in that.” Several councilors spoke highly of Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard and his accomplishments, but said they could not justify a 40 percent jump in pay.
“Not only did (the proposed mayoral raise) strike a chord with residents, but it was just too much, too fast, too soon,” Councilor Jeff Worrell said. “I would go to the mat for the mayor. I think has done a fabulous job, but that much money for even ardent supporters is just too much.” Councilors also hesitated to make large increases in pay for elected officials because state law prohibits their salaries from being lowered once approved. “If (the mayor) leaves, the person we would get (appointed) would not have 20 years of experience, would not have a passion for the Carter city like he does,” Council President Ron Carter said. After discussion, the three councilors on the committee voted to recommend a 2 percent increase to cover cost of living adjustments, which is the proposed minimum raise for all city employees for 2017. The Carmel City Council will discuss the ordinance at an upcoming meeting. Its next scheduled meeting is Oct. 17. Brainard declined to comment on the committee’s decision.
The committee did not allow Clerk-Treasurer Christine Pauley to comment at the meeting. Pauley had written a letter to the city council expressing disappointment that she was proposed to receive a 2 percent raise when the mayor and council members had much larger increases proposed. After the meeting, Pauley said she was happy with the Council’s decision but still wanted some issues in her letter addressed, such as the separation of powers between the ClerkTreasurer and the City Council. She said she’s happy that nobody is getting a larger raise than anyone else. “I am pleased that there’s equity and fairness,” she said. Pauley said in her letter that no raises beyond cost of living would be “the most fiscally responsible decision” and that some money could be better used for debt service repayment. After the finance committee meeting, she didn’t want to say whether the Council made the most fiscally responsible decision. “My job is not to make decisions to how the money is spent,” she said. “How the City Council wishes to spend the money is their prerogative. It’s their authority.” Visit CurrentinCarmel.com for updates.

A second ‘Chance’ book By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com Carolyn Moore of Carmel has released the second book in her “Chance, the Wonderful, Incredible Three-Legged Dog” series. kids “The first book focused on how we got Chance, and just accepting things that aren’t perfect, loving things that aren’t perfect,” said Moore, whose inspiration for the books came from her dog, Chance. The second book, “Chance, Moore the Wonderful, Incredible Three-Legged Dog and Making Friends,” focuses on Chance befriending an unusual character. Moore got the idea for the book as she watched Chance interact with a foster cat. “I thought it was interesting, because people, especially little kids, sometimes pick friends because they’re just like them. They do the same things, they like the same things, they wear the same clothes,” Moore said. “I thought it would be interesting to write a book to kind of let little kids know that sometimes your best friend can be found in something you wouldn’t expect.” Moore works as a consultant for Eli Lilly but has always enjoyed writing. “This is definitely my second career. I’m a registered nurse by trade. This is something I’ve always wanted to do,” Moore said. “I

Chaucie’s Place was represented by Hamilton County Prosecutor Lee Buckingham and Chaucie’s Place Board President Richard F.

However, it quickly became clear that I couldn’t be at every event, nor could I champion every cause. That is why I, along with a team of dedicated board members, started the Indiana First Lady’s Charitable Foundation as a way to shine a light on the organizations across Indiana who lift up our communities

Fishers Oktoberfest Where’s Amy attended Fishers Oktoberfest at Saxony and enjoyed a day full of music, games and, of course, brats with beer. The popular festival was free and encouraged residents to bring canned foods for a local food pantry. I even took a ride in the famous Remax hot air balloon, which allowed guests to see the festival from above and was one of the highlights of the day.

Cornerstone Lutheran Church expanding to Fishers By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com Carmel Lutheran Church recently outgrew its 10-acre site in Carmel. As membership increased, it became development evident other locations would be necessary. “The church will be celebrating our 40th anniversary in January. We started in 1977. It was built out in a cornfield on the east side of Carmel,” Senior Pastor Luther Brunette said. “Since that time, we’ve grown and we’ve completely built out everything possible that we could have on those 10 acres. As our ministry has expanded, we realized the only way we could continue to grow and carry out the (mission) is to have other sites. The growth continued to boom over in Fishers. We realized we had about 1,000 of our disciples that cross the White River to come over to our Carmel site. It became obvious to us that Fishers would be a great place to replicate our ministry that we have here in Carmel.” With the addition of the Fishers location,
CLC realized it could no longer continue its ministry with the name Carmel Lutheran Church. It called on worshippers to come up with a new name. “It was quite a process to do that to get the name changed. We did a survey of the congregation. We said we would like it to be something that starts with C so that we can still call ourselves CLC,” Brunette said. “The hope was to have another C word that was biblical and reflected our ministry while keeping that moniker. We got 1,300 responses. Cornerstone was the one that rose to the top. Finally, then the whole congregation voted, and it passed overwhelmingly.” The Fishers location will open in November and will have an indoor playground. Ministries will be the same at each location each week. “The hope is that the playground would draw families into our facility,” Brunette said. “I like to use the phrase, ‘Come to play, stay to pray.’” For more, visit cornerstonelutheran.church. com.

Three Scouts from Troop 112 earn Eagle rank By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Luke Hamachek is following a proud family tradition. “I knew one day I achievement would get Eagle Scout, it was just a matter of time,” he said. His father, Scott, and his uncle, Tim, are both Eagle Scouts. Three Troop 112 members, Hamachek, Sebby Thatcher and Bryce Castle, were given their Eagle Scout badges Sept. 26. All three are Carmel High School students. Hamachek, a junior, is in his sixth year in scouting. His project was to landscape the entrance at Wodock baseball fields behind Carmel Elementary School. The fields are used by Carmel Dads’ Club. “I used to be a soccer ref for Carmel Dads’ Club, so I wanted to give back to that facility,” Hamachek said. “I landscaped the entrance to sort of enhance the beauty.” Hamachek said the Boy Scouts try to help each other out as much as possible to earn the Eagle Scout rank. Thatcher, a senior, built five picnic tables for Noble of Indiana in Indianapolis. “Noble is a not-for-profit organization that helps integrate people with learning disabili-

ties into the workforce,” Thatcher said. “They have a work site where they hire clients. In this workplace, they didn’t have anywhere to break. If they wanted to take a lunch break inside, it would be super noisy. If they didn’t want to go outside, the only seating was in the smoking section.” Thatcher has been volunteering for Noble of Indiana for a while and conversed with President and CEO Julia Huffman. “We were able to see some problems that existed and how I could contribute to help,” Thatcher said. “It was a lot of hours planning
and driving back and forth. It was definitely one of the most time-consuming projects I’ve done through my scouting career. It’s supposed to challenge you.” Castle, a sophomore, built a 266-foot-long fence at Zionsville Presbyterian Church. Castle said it took 156 service hours in total. Castle chose to do the project after hearing some suggestions of work that needed to be done at the church. “I finished it during fall break (in 2015), and then I did all the work and went before the board of review in February,” Castle said.

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Tracey Blackmore is determined to make sure she honors the memory of her 6-year-old son Brooks, who died in May update after fighting brain cancer. Brooks’ story captured the hearts of people in Carmel, leading to numerous fundraisers, events and a popular Facebook blog. Now, the Carmel mother has announced an opportunity to raise money to fight childhood cancer in her son’s honor. Tracey reached out to Bucketfeet, a footwear company that creates shoes designed by independent artists, and now a limited line of shoes are being released based on a painting done by Brooks before he died. “During his battle with cancer, Brooks couldn’t do many of the physical activities he was used to and instead found a new love for painting,â€? said Jenny Chao, who is helping promote the campaign. “Before his passing, Brooks painted a canvas for his mother on her birthday and called it ‘Sweet Pea in Heaven,’ named in tribute to his family’s late bulldog. This painting has helped provide the Blackmore family with comfort during this difficult time.â€?
Shoes sold through Bucketfeet feature a painting by Brooks Blackmore, who died at age 6 after fighting brain cancer. (Submitted photo)
Tracey said the shoes are being pre-sold for a limited time for $75 to benefit St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a childhood cancer charity. For every pair of the brightly colored slip-ons sold, $20 will be donated to the foundation. “The flourish of colors and free-flowing technique captures the artist’s youthful creativity and passion for painting,� according to Bucketfeet’s website. Blackmore said she’s appreciative of the company’s efforts to remember her son. “It all goes to research, but it means so much more than just that to us,� she said.

School Board Candidate: Katie Browning Katie Browning, 31, is a mother and substitute teacher at Carmel Clay Schools. She graduated from Hannibal High School in Missouri, where her mother was an English/language arts teacher, and from Brigham Young University with a bachelor’s degree in political science. Why do you want to run for school board? “I care about the future of our schools and community. I have a background and education in policy, legislation and government. Having a passion for public education makes running for school board a smart choice. My relentless dedication for our students make me the perfect choice.” What is the biggest issue facing CCS right now? “State school funding is one of our district’s biggest hurdles. However, our district is also having to address teacher unions and contract mediation. Once our teachers, their unions and the IEERB finalize negotiations, we as a district can move forward in strengthening relationships, being more effective in collective bargaining and focusing on other student needs.” How should CCS handle being one of the lowest funded districts in the state? “In Carmel, we have to use referendums just to maintain what we are currently providing to our students and pay basic needs such as
utilities. We need to be very visible at our state level to ensure that our community is represented. One of the assets I bring to our school Browning board is my understanding of policy and legislative processes.” What do you want readers/voters to know about you? “I am an extremely hard worker. I focus on solutions rather than problems. I want to be innovative while not jeopardizing the traditions that have made us strong. Personally, I have the added incentive of having a third grader and Kindergartener who attend Carmel Clay Schools. I want them and all students in our district to have the best education we can possibly give them.” What are your goals if elected? “My first goal is to learn as much as I can from our current board, administrators and teachers about our district. I know I have much to process, but I will take the time and put in the effort to do the very best at this position. I will be ready to dive into state funding, collective bargaining and legislative priorities. I am a team player and will work with others to use my skills and talents to do what is needed and best.” Read more at currentincarmel.com.
School Board Candidate: Cherish Davis Cherish Foreman Davis, 31, is a stay-athome mom of four. She graduated in 2003 from Mt. Vernon High School and studied anthropology at IUPUI. Why do you want to run for school board? “I am running for school board to most effectively make a difference for our most paramount priority, our children and their education.” Have you run for elected office before? “I have run before within the Democratic Party for District-level Pledged National Delegate this year and was elected.” What is the biggest issue facing CCS right now? “Teacher salary funding, large class size and cuts to funding for music and art programs.” What is your opinion of the state school funding formula? “I think that overall foundation funding must increase per student across the state and that public schools need more funding in general. The current formula increased Carmel Clay School’s funding, but it’s still not enough. Any cut in complexity index funding is wrong. Counties which experience higher rates of childhood poverty must be aided through differentiation in the formula.” How should CCS handle being one
of the lowest funded districts in the state? “Continue to lobby the General Assembly through the Indiana Fix-It Coalition.” Davis What do you see as CCS strengths? “Community, importance of music and the arts.” What do you see as CCS weaknesses? “Too-large class sizes, employee salaries not sufficient and too much priority to subsidized testing.” What do you want readers/voters to know about you? “I am a stay-at-home mom and political and community activist. I have four beautiful children. I am a fifth-generation Hoosier. I am a dedicated person who strives to seek every way possible to be the change. I live for standing up and fighting for what is right, compassion and love.” What are your goals if elected? “I want to be a strong voice and work hard advocating for students, teachers and fellow parents.” Favorite local restaurant? “Woody’s Library Restaurant.” What is an interesting fact that people don’t know about you? “I played soccer for 13 years. I was a goalkeeper for various club teams and high school.”

School Board Candidate: Kathie Freed A retired teacher, Kathie Freed, 62, is the only candidate with previous school board experience. She graduated from Lebanon High School and received a BA in mathematics and a MS in secondary education from Butler. Why do you want to run for school board? “As a lifetime teacher, I have always been passionate about education and giving our young people the best opportunity to succeed. I am seeking a second term on the Carmel school board so that I might continue to serve our community and the young people served by Carmel Clay Schools.” What is the biggest issue facing CCS right now? “As with many districts in Indiana, providing an excellent educational experience to our young people on a limited budget continues to be our biggest challenge. We are fortunate to have the support of our parents and our community to help provide services for our students. The referendum that was passed in 2010 has been the difference between continuing to provide services expected by our community and having to cut teachers and programs.” How should CCS handle being one of the lowest funded districts in the state? ”Our superintendent, Dr. Wahl, and a member of the board have met with each state legisla-
tor to discuss the need to properly fund education. Each year we set legislative priorities which clarify our focus. Number one priFreed ority is funding each year. Collaboration and sharing information will do the most to eliminate this problem.” What do you see as CCS weaknesses? “I believe that CCS has relatively few weaknesses. However, we are always working at being better. Two areas where continued attention is needed are the social and emotional needs of our students and continued development of career preparation at the high school. Both are part of the strategic plan adopted by the board in the last year.” What are your goals if re-elected? “I will continue to work with my fellow board members to set policy and provide leadership for CCS. I look forward to working with our superintendent as we continue work on the implementation of our strategic plan which includes improving communication with parents and the community, improving the use and availability of technology in the classroom, and the development of a system to monitor each student’s social and emotional growth.” Read more at currentincarmel.com.
School Board Candidate: Tim Smith Tim Smith, 51, is an assistant superintendent at Anderson Community Schools. He graduated from Rockville High School and got his undergraduate degree from Milligan College. He has a master’s degree from Indiana University and education specialist and doctorate degrees from Indiana State University. Why do you want to run for school board? “I believe in Carmel Schools. I want to use my knowledge and experiences as an educator to support the educational process in our district.” What is the biggest issue facing CCS right now? “I believe one of the biggest issues is the upcoming referendum for the district. State legislation has made school funding very difficult on districts across the state, and Carmel is not immune from this issue. We need to be fiscally responsible for our community yet maintain integral programs for our students.” How should CCS handle being one of the lowest funded districts in the state? “First of all, we need to be vocal as a school community and voice concerns to our state legislators. Secondly, we need to be fiscally responsible with our spending to assure student programs and opportunities are supported and continued. School budgets are
stretched everywhere, so we need to make sure we watch our spending without negatively impacting students or staff Smith members.” What do you see as CCS weaknesses? “There are always areas where schools, staff and students can improve. Making sure that the district is transparent and communicates effectively with all of the stakeholders is very important. I do not see these areas as weaknesses, just areas for continued monitoring and improvement.” What do you want voters to know about you? “I will be committed to working for all facets of our school community. My experience as an educator, former employee of the district and commitment to maintaining the outstanding reputation of our schools will allow me to be a quality board member for Carmel Clay Schools.” What are your goals if elected? “My goal as a board member is to serve the entire community by making decisions for our schools that will benefit our student success, staff morale and unity for our district. I will be a part of the solution to difficult issues facing our schools in Carmel.”

I and my family have been active in the community.

Choir hosts Princess Academy By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School senior Brooke Porter loved participating in her choir group Accents’ Princess Academy. event “It’s not like boring fundraising. It’s one of the reasons I stayed in Accents last year, because it was so much fun,” Porter said. The Princess Academy is set from 1 to 4 p.m. Nov. 5 at the CHS freshman cafeteria. CHS choirs director Kathrine Kouns said she had seen similar events at other schools. “I thought it would be a great idea for our community here in Carmel,” Kouns said “This is such a family-oriented community, and I personally have two young daughters, so this was near and dear to my heart. We didn’t know how last year would go since it was our first time, but it was a huge success.” Kouns said more than 100 children ranging in age from 4 to 8 years old attended in princess costumes. The Accents dress up as Disney princesses and some played the role of Fairy Godmother. “They get to dress up as princesses, or if they want to, as a prince,” Accents senior Hannah George said. “We have stations around the freshman cafeteria. The stations are set up as arts and crafts and story time. They can paint their nails and get their hair
done.” George served as a Fairy Godmother last year. “At the end they have a recital for their parents,” George said. “Their parents get to see the Accents sing and the little kids perform with the Accents. It’s a really awesome experience. It’s a mini-Disney World.” Porter played Belle last year and will be Pocahontas this year. “I mostly walked around and talked to them,” Porter said. “They took pictures with us. It was really cute.” Tickets are $30 and are on sale now at ticketracker.com.

Mayor unveils plan for outdoor ice rink, festival area during annual speech By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard unveiled a big surprise at his 2016 State of the City Speech. At the OneZone luncover story cheon hosted Oct. 11 at Ritz Charles, Brainard announced that the city plans to construct an ice skating rink where the center green is, on the south side of The Palladium. The ice rink would be part of a Center Green Plaza where the grass field would be replaced with a hard surface, allowing it to be easily used for festivals. In the winter, this plaza could be transformed into an area for ice skating. Around the ice skating rink, the City of Carmel will create its own Christkindl Market, where people can shop for holiday crafts and buy refreshments during the holiday season. “We live in Indiana and enjoy all four seasons,” Brainard said. “That, unfortunately for some, includes winter. Until now, we haven’t provided a lot of winter-weather activities or outside events. That, however, is about to change … Many of you might have visited (ice skating) areas such as this in Chicago or New York City. They become gathering places through the winter months and add so much vibrancy to a time of year with many hours of darkness.”
The City of Carmel hired Rundell Ernstberger Associates to do the work, and that firm already created renderings that were displayed to the 600 people at the luncheon. The project cost will be a little more than $5 million, including design. The city hasn’t signed any contracts yet. Brainard said after the speech that he expects the project to be complete by fall or
winter of 2017. Construction should begin next summer. He said it shouldn’t negatively affect the space for the Carmel Farmers Market. Ron Carter, president of the Carmel City Council and founder of the Carmel Farmers Market, said the new plaza design could actually mean more space for farmers market vendors. Brainard said the current center green isn’t
on construction In addition to the announcement, Brainard looked back at several ongoing and recently completed projects in Carmel, including an aggressive schedule for road construction. He said in October or early November he expects the 100th roundabout to be complete in Carmel. As of Oct. 11, there are 97 roundabouts in the city, already the most of any U.S. city. He explained to attendees why the City is working on intersections that aren’t yet congested. He said it’s important to “anticipate growth.” “While it may take more time to plan your route in the morning during periods of heavy road construction, the resulting roadway network will bring us benefits for years in the future,” he said. “Long term congestion is being avoided because of our aggressive

approach to anticipating future problem areas. If we want to attract businesses and be able to continue to grow, we have to make sure we have made it easy to navigate through our community efficiently and safely.”
always usable, such as when it is rainy or muddy. He noted that some green space will be preserved and trees will be planted. This public space will be owned by the city and could be reserved through the Board of Public Works for weddings, fundraisers, festivals and more. Brainard also detailed his proudest achievements over the past year, including hosting a party for the U.S. Conference of Mayors, new corporate headquarters relocating to Carmel and new construction in the City Center and Midtown areas. “Many of you have heard me talk about building a city that will still be relevant in 100 to 500 years,” he said. “In order to do this, we must pay attention to what helps people live their best lives.” Brainard also addressed immigration, a hot topic in the 2016 presidential election. Brainard said after the speech that harsh rhetoric from some such as Donald Trump isn’t what he thinks the Republican Party should be about. “We must not underestimate the importance of our immigrant communities, as they add to the fabric and energy of our city,” he said. “They have worked tremendously hard to move here because they want to raise their children as Americans.” Brainard ended his speech with a strong defense of his aggressive development strategy for the city. He said it’s important to think big. “I am excited also about our future as we continue to grow and develop as one of the best places anywhere to live, work and truly thrive,” Brainard said in his speech. “As we build this great city together, I am reminded of the words of Daniel Burnham, one of the men who designed the city of Chicago. He said, ‘Make no small plans; they do not have the power to stir men’s souls.’ He was right. Let’s continue to dream big together.”

A sober memory of ‘The Fall’
Seeds for GOP sown long ago
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Well, we’re back. We couldn’t resist commenting on the upcoming election. We want to delve further into the Republican Party’s magnanimous comments while many members concurrently were pulling support from its nominee, Donald Trump. A lot has been said about the GOP’s “values” and “principles,” and we keep asking ourselves, Just what might those be? From our vantage point, the only values and principles the national GOP possesses relate to its unparalleled talents in losing national elections. No organization is better at grasping defeat from the jaws of victory, as the old saying goes. Further, many pundits talk about how the nomination of Trump is all the fault of the GOP, which is true. However, we differ in that it isn’t anything the party has done during the last 15 months, but, rather, its failures dating to the late 1980s, when the GOP ceded control to the wimpy, liberal Bush wing of the party. As much respect as we have for Ronald Reagan, his biggest mistake was putting George H.W. Bush on the ticket. Little did we know that while Reagan was resurrecting the Republican Party, he had inadvertently created the monster that would ultimately destroy it. Trump isn’t destroying the establishment GOP; the Bushes beat him to the punch. Explaining Trump’s relative success: Voters are attracted to him for no other reasons than he’s willing to fight and calling out the establishment and rigged systems, and we’ve not seen that from a Republican on the national stage since Reagan.

A place for anything
Commentary by Terry Anker
America, among its many other noted accolades, is the capital of stuff. We have a ton of it. We have stuff in which to put our stuff. We have stuff to help us organize our stuff. I suppose that we have stuff to organize the stuff that we use to organize our stuff. It can all be a bit overstuffed. But, pulling it together into some cohesive and orderly arrangement feels good. Once arranged, we are at the ready for whatever might come our way. The provisions for the machinations of life stand at hand awaiting our slightest need for deployment. Countered against the stacked disarray of the more shanty methods, an orderly approach to living seems entirely in order. It seems simple. Yet, like many consequences of human undertaking, the expectation of simplicity is often followed by anything but. Our plans to keep house are overwhelmed by all manner of domestic ca-
tastrophe. Soon, our intended baskets, drawers, closets, shelves and tubs are filled to overflow with impact debris of a full life. Should we surrender and expect a call from the A&E television show “Hoarders?” Hopefully not. When the stuff is swelling and soon to overtake, pause and start, big to small. Wrangle the bits of scattered ephemera from work, school, marriage and family into holding pens. Then, arrange the variables that remain – preserving only those that have some significant practical or sentimental value. After, retrieve the small items, favorites first, until the space seems right. Whatever is left in the coop goes to resale, charity or the landfill. “Everything in its place and a place for everything” only holds true if there is actually a place for anything.

Q U O T E O F T HE W EEK It is not the creation of wealth that is wrong, but the love of money for its own sake. – Margaret Thatcher
As I wrapped up an emotional breakdown in a rather untoward McDonald’s bathroom stall off I-65 over humor the weekend, I reminded myself that even the strongest of women have to “let it out” from time to time. Doo thought it was hilarious, but given the night I’d had, I’m surprised I’d held it together for as long as I did. The short of it is that my dad took a tumble and sustained a C-2 fracture, which, for those of you not up on your anatomical vocab, means quite literally that he broke his neck. Dad’s fine – he’s sporting a brace and a few stitches – but the hospital ordeal was extraordinarily stressful, in addition to occurring at a most inconvenient time, the middle of the night. I’d have much rather been sleeping, but since I was in town, close by, and sober when it happened, I became an unwilling participant in what is now being called “The Fall.” I mention my sobriety only because several of my sisters were also “available” to handle the crisis, but only one didn’t have to Uber home from the bars when the SOS text went out. So basically it was me, my mom, and one coherent sibling dealing with blood, dad’s protests, ER paperwork, and the inebriated baby of the family who not only insisted upon tagging along, but was also adamant about concocting an over-the-top story that would ensure dad’s immediate triage. Emotionally weaker people might have lost their shtick at any point during the night, but I managed to stay calm and collected throughout, even when dad was categorized as a level-3 trauma and had to be ambulanced to a different hospital, one with a metal-detector entrance and homeless men sheltering in the waiting room. Mom and sober sister kept their cool until dad was home, when a shared hug undid them both. Me? I got halfway back to Indy before the smell of fried potato goodness and the enormity of what “might have been” hit. At least I had a relatively clean toilet to cry on. Thanks McDonald’s! Peace out.

REA D ERS ’ V I E W S Why stop at 40-percent pay raise? Editor, Is Mayor Brainard selling himself short? It’s reported Mr. Brainard seeks a 40 percent pay raise, taking his salary up to almost $180,000 (nearly twice that of Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett’s $99,000 annual salary), because he believes that amount is required to retain him in the job and to attract future top-end talent to seek the job. Why stop at 40 percent? If it’s all about the money for the mayor and the salary needed in the near future to encourage the best and brightest to seek a career track in “public service,” why not a 70 to 80 percent increase? And, Brainard says a 40 percent raise puts his salary in the stratosphere of the city managers of Flower Mound, Texas, and Dublin, Ohio, which are cities Carmel competes against for economic development. In the
past, Brainard has said he wants to compete with even bigger cities, so why limit his pay increase to 40 percent? In addition, the mayor has proposed a 28 percent pay increase for the City Council. Again, stating money will motivate the best talent to serve. If money was the motivator for the best talent, what does that say about the current council membership who have served at such a low pay rate? Are they less than the best? Public service sure isn’t what it once was. And, tragically, Mr. Brainard’s efforts to massively increase his own salary certainly does make lapidary the public’s image of Carmel as having avarice at its very core.

Redistricting should be up to citizens Editor, The federal government takes a new census every 10 years, and that data is used to redraw the congressional and legislative districts that must, by law, be roughly equal in population. Sounds pretty straight forward, except for “gerrymandering,” where the political party that controls the state general assembly also controls the redistricting process. Hamilton County state representatives Kathy Richardson (Noblesville) and Jerry Torr (Carmel) are in the position of having an opportunity to help usher in the beginning of the end for gerrymandering in Indiana. Richardson is a member and Torr the chair of the Special Interim Committee on Redistricting, which met for the final time on Oct. 17 to voted on whether or not to send a
redistricting reform draft proposal on to the general assembly. Without this committee’s endorsement, the legislature will have an excuse to forget about reforming the redistricting process, and we can look forward to more gerrymandering in 2021. Both political parties in Indiana are guilty of gerrymandering. Both have used it to create safe districts for their members, which limits the choices that voters have and makes it difficult to hold incumbents accountable. Allowing legislators to draw their own political districts is like allowing them to choose their voters; it’s clearly a conflict of interest. Indiana should follow the lead of states like Arizona and California that have put citizens in charge of the redistricting process. Peg Harmon Hamilton County League of Women Voters
Carmel shouldn’t be fiscally irresponsible Editor, Wow, what a deal! First you stack the city council with rubber stampers. Once all the new members are in place, you announce a massive roundabout construction program. Next, you try some governmental overreach by proposing an ordinance requiring businesses to provide special parking and shower facilities for bike riders (which happily did not pass). Now, we have a proposal for increases in salaries for the mayor and city councilors
of 40 percent and 23 percent, respectively (except for the financial watchdog clerktreasurer, who would be awarded a 2 percent increase). Just because some local governments across the country have chosen to be fiscally irresponsible with taxpayer money does not require Carmel to follow suit. The proposed increases are inappropriate and should be voted down by the city council. Hans Collins, Carmel

Walk to raise awareness of LBD By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com Lewy Body Dementia has recently gained national attention with the death of actor Robin Williams, whose fundraiser brain showed signs of the disease. But for Carmel resident Kevin Seibert and his family, LBD is personal. Seibert’s father, Gary Edward Seibert, was diagnosed with LBD after a lengthy process to figure out what was wrong. “We got him into a geriatrician, an aging specialist, and that was the first time someone actually said to him they thought he had Alzheimer’s,” Kevin Seibert said. “After four or five days, we were finally able to get him into a rehab facility. At that point they tried to give him a medication to calm down the hallucinations he was having. It caused him to drop to a comatose state where he couldn’t speak or walk.” Gary’s reaction to a drug led to the diagnosis of LBD. LBD is a progressive brain disorder caused when abnormal protein deposits build up in areas of the brain that control behavior, cognition and movement, according to the Lewy Body Dementia Association. For Kevin’s daughters, Sarah and Laurie, the diagnosis led to some important questions. “They were seeing all these things about

Alzheimer’s awareness, and they were asking me why there weren’t any awareness events about LBD,” Kevin Seibert said. His daughters decided they wanted to help create awareness of the disease. After searching for walks to attend, they found only one in Atlanta, Ga. The girls decided to organize a walk in Carmel to benefit LBDA. The Oct. 22 event will start and end at Danny Boy Beer Works and is $25 to participate. For more information or to register, visit stoplewy.com.
Facts about gender and health Commentary by Lena Franklin, MD It’s common knowledge that ovarian cancer and prostate cancer are two diseases specific to women and men, family medicine respectively. Men can get breast cancer, but it’s far more likely to occur in women. Men and women are susceptible to certain diseases based on the biological and anatomical differences between them. And while gender increases the risk of certain health conditions, diseases often present differently in women and men, too. One example is heart disease — a condition that’s more prevalent in men. While men are more likely to die from a heart attack early in life, women are more prone to “silent” heart attacks, which occur without chest pain or other telltale symptoms. Perhaps because women tend to live longer, they are also more likely to suffer a stroke, the risk of which increases with age. Osteoporosis is another disease that is more common in women. After menopause, they are five times more likely to get the disease than men. When it comes to drinking alcohol, men
are two times more likely to binge drink than women. Men are more likely to require hospitalization due to heavy or binge drinking and are more likely to die from it. In terms of cancer, lung and colon cancer strike men more often than women. While these gender differences and related statistics can be interesting, it’s important to remember disease and health issues can impact anyone. That’s why most primary care physicians recommend that adults see their doctor at least once a year for a physical. It’s during these more comprehensive visits that your doctor can discuss risk factors, family history and any symptoms you may be experiencing. He or she can also determine what preventive tests and screenings you may need so any diseases or health issues can be treated as soon as possible. Lena Franklin, MD, specializes in family medicine.

Greg Sorvig collects movie memorabilia, some of which can be found in his Heartland Film Festival office. (Photo by Amy Pauszek)
Carmel’s Greg Sorvig helps select screenings for Heartland Film Festival By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Greg Sorvig moved numerous times growing up, but that has provided one advantage. Although some guess he had a father cover story in the military, his father actually was in retail business. Sorvig, who has lived in 10 different states, attended three different high schools in Alabama, Connecticut and Indiana. “Tom Cruise said that (attending 15 schools in 14 years) is how he became a people person, because you meet so many different strangers,” Sorvig said. Being a people person serves the new Carmel resident well in his position as the director of programming and marketing for Heartland Film Festival, which will be held Oct. 20 to 30 in Indianapolis. Sorvig, 32, has been working for Heartland full time for 4 1/2 years and previously was a volunteer as a movie screener. Recently, he took over programming for the festival. “A lot of people who get jobs at Heartland have been volunteers or have a passion for film,” Sorvig said. “I jokingly tell people I took a full-time job so I could stop watching bad movies.” Finding his role As a volunteer screener, Sorvig said films come in from all over the world, and the volunteers are the first to see the lesser-known films. “Then Heartland’s marketing person quit, and I took over,” Sorvig said. “There was really a lot of spending that didn’t need to be done. I took over a lot of things in-house from

MEET Greg SORVIG Personal: Born in Grand Forks, N.D. Married Rachel (Ziemba) Sorvig in 2008. The two met after Sorvig transferred to Avon High School during his senior year. They went to prom and have been together ever since. Both attended Indiana University. Sorvig majored in communications and culture with emphasis on film studies. They have a daughter, Leona, who will turn 1 Oct. 27. After graduating from IU, Sorvig took a job at Hunt Construction, which built Lucas Oil Stadium, as a graphic designer. He then worked on marketing for a nonprofit, National Precast Concrete Association, in Carmel. He then worked for Shiel Sexton, another construction company. Favorite genre: “Comedy. There are movies I can watch over and over. I have an affinity for ‘The Jerk’ with Steve Martin and ‘Dumb and Dumber’ with Jim Carrey. Especially ‘Dumb and Dumber’ developed my warped sense of humor over the years.” As a film student, Sorvig developed a love of silent film comedy masters Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd and Charlie Chaplin. Least favorite genre: Horror.
graphic design to public relations and communications. In the five years I’ve been there, we’ve had three of the top attended years. That’s really neat. Being a nonprofit, you are a jack of all trades in your areas, too. Coming from that background of critiquing and watching movies, I was able to jump in where there were holes.” So when the artistic director stepped down earlier this year, Sorvig was asked if he was interested in programming. “This year, we had a record 2,535 films submitted from all over the world,” Sorvig said. “The previous year it was 1,700 and the year before that 1,200. It keeps climbing.” Sorvig said Heartland’s mission is to find films that inspire or have a powerful message. Heartland, celebrating its 25th anniversary, will feature 138 films from 29 countries this month. Sorvig said it’s usually in the 120 to 140 range. “Everything is very purposeful,” he said. “There are crazy spread sheets with scores. It’s really the director of programming’s role to look at the rankings (committee screeners), fit
Favorite Heartland film: “Becoming Bulletproof,” a documentary which focuses on Zeno Mountain Farms, where actors with and without disabilities come each year to make original short films. Hobby: “I’m a huge ‘Star Wars’ nerd,” Sorvig admitted. “I’ve been collecting “Star Wars toys since I was little. I have a whole set of the original figures in perfect condition out of the package. It may go to my daughter’s college fund, we’ll see.” Favorite movie: “I love ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark.’ I think it’s a movie that you can watch over and over.
it with the mission and say, ‘Maybe these 15 films in each category will go on to a finalist jury.’” The finalists jury is made up of filmmakers, past winners, critics and academia. Sorvig said unlike many other film festivals, Heartland labels out how it picks its winners. One constant Through the many moves and different jobs, one constant throughout Sorvig’s life has been his love of movies. Appropriately, Sorvig interned at Disney World during college and worked on “The Great Movie Ride,” a 22-minute ride through movie history. “So I was there with animatronic James Cagney, Gene Kelly and John Wayne,” Sorvig said. “That’s fantastic for public speaking and you get that great professional foundation of working with Disney. I took some fantastic Disney-run courses.” For more, visit heartlandfilm.org.

Taylor returns to music By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com James Taylor, of Carmel, has been playing in bands since he was a child. After serving in the U.S. Marines, entertainment he returned to Carmel in the ’90s and formed a band called Taylor and Smith that played in Broad Ripple and other entertainment spots. He then moved on to IT work and stopped performing – until now. Taylor recently submitted some of his work to reverbnation.com, where his songs quickly rose to the No. 2 regional spot, No. 8 in the Midwest and in the top 100 nationally. “My intent now, I don’t really care that much to perform anymore, but I want to sell some songs. That’s my goal, but in order to do that you have to get in front of people,” Taylor said. He recently received recognition from Samantha Cox of Broadcast Music, Inc. in New York, and he was invited to play a songwriter’s show at the Bitter End in New York City. “This reverbnation.com, I jumped on that a month or six weeks ago and started getting a lot of attention … I thought it would be cool to write locally,” he said. “Now my goal is to be

CHS grad produces first film By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Laura Goodenow’s first feature film as a producer is making waves on the film-festival circuit. movies The 1995 Carmel High School graduate, who lives in Broad Ripple, produced “Year By The Sea,” which has won four audience choice awards. The film is based on Joan Anderson’s bestselling memoir. When her husband gets a new job and has to move, she decides to live on her own in Cape Cod for one year to get better sense of herself. The piece started the film-festival circuit in April and will be shown four times at the Heartland Film Festival in Indianapolis this month. “Our tag line is, ‘It’s never too late to claim your life,’” said Goodenow, whose film company is Real Women Make Waves. “We hope our audience takes away the feeling that no matter what age they are or where they are in life, there is always an opportunity to step away and redefine who you are.” Alexander Janko, writer, director and composer, is Goodenow’s creative partner on different projects. “Of the many projects we’ve worked on, this is the one that took hold,” Goodenow said.

“We had a stage reading at Cape Cod in 2014, and women would drive from as far away as Michigan to hear the script read because Joan’s books have changed their lives and given them newfound freedom. We realized there was an audience for the film.” The film was shot over 22 days in Cape Cod in the summer of 2015. Karen Allen stars as Joan Anderson. Allen and Janko will attend the first two Heartland screenings, and Goodenow will attend all four screenings. The showings are 8:15 p.m. Oct. 21, AMC Castleton Square 14; 6 p.m. Oct. 22, AMC Castleton Square 14; 3:30 p.m. Oct. 25, AMC Showplace Traders Point 12; and 12:15 p.m. Oct. 29, AMC Castleton Square 14.

Tim Reynolds’ trio to perform By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com As the lead guitarist for Dave Matthews Band, Tim Reynolds performed before several thousand people during a twoconcert night stint at Klipsch Music Center in Noblesville in July. Reynolds returns to play a different kind of concert with his TR3 band at 8 p.m. Oct. 21 at The Warehouse, 254 First Ave., Carmel. Reynolds is looking forward to the 150-seat Warehouse’s listening room. On the current tour, TR3 is playing a mixture of bars and smaller venues. “We also do some acoustic stuff with the trio,” Reynolds said. “It’s fun to play those gigs. In a bar there is more energy and everyone is (shouting). In a bar, you tend to play to that energy. It’s loud and rock and roll. In the listening rooms, we play a whole bunch of other songs we don’t play in a bar because they’re too mellow. That’s awesome because we get to play these songs we really love to play because they are more intimate. We have a song, ‘Lonely Woman,’ which is like a jazz swing ballad, or we could play a Tom Waits song or stuff of our own, too.” Reynolds’ bandmates are Mick Vaughn (bass) and Dan Martier (drums). “We’ve been playing together since 2007,”
From left, Dan Martier, Tim Reynolds and Mick Vaughn will perform Oct. 21 at The Warehouse. (Submitted photo)
Reynolds said. “It’s been really awesome to get tighter and tighter. Something about playing with people for a long time makes it easier and more fun. We try to play different songs every night. Sometimes it’s easy to get into certain songs because you know people are going to like them. It’s fun to learn new songs because it challenges yourself and the audience. It’s fun to change it up.” Reynolds said Dave Matthews Band has a similar approach to switching up setlists or arrangements of songs. For more, visit liveforthemusic.com.

Warm up with soup Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Cold weather seems to bring on our emotional need for hot soup. In the 19th century, Lewis Carroll, besides writing “Alice in Wonderland,” “Jabberwocky” and other classics, was so driven by his love for soup that he wrote a poem about it. In his poem “Beautiful Soup,” he begins with, “Beautiful soup, so rich and green, Waiting in a hot tureen!” Since one can look up hundreds of other written tributes to soup there must be a reason. Research shows that what you eat during cold game days can help you survive cold blasts. There are nutritious options — like soups that trick your body into thinking it’s July. Here are four easy cold-weather tailgate foods to leave you feeling your best— even when the weather is at its worst. • Deviled eggs – Their yolks contain vitamin D to replace lessened sunlight. • Almonds – As a munching snack, their fat helps with skin lubrication. • Pretzels – A healthy, high-carb snack during the game that increases your brain’s production of serotonin, which makes you feel good. • Hot soup – Increases your body’s water intake and makes you feel warmer. In today’s trendy sports bars and pubs, the rage is tortilla soup. Here’s a great recipe for your tailgate: Tortilla soup Ingredients: 2 teaspoons olive oil; 1 medium onion; 4 cups (32 ounces) chicken broth; 1 cup roasted tomatoes with garlic, canned; 1/2 red pepper, diced; 1 can (14 ounces) green chilies, diced; 1/2 lime, juiced; 1 link Johnsonville Andouille Premium Cooking Sausage, diced (this is half of a 13.5 ounce package); 2 cups The Center for the Performing Arts – 355 City Center Dr., Carmel – thecenterpresents.org Oct. 19 – Lyle Lovett and Robert Earl Keen Oct. 20 – Joan Baez Oct. 22 – Indiana Wind Symphony Hoosier Park Racing & Casino – 4500 Dan Patch Circle, Anderson – hoosierpark.com Oct. 21 – Kyxx Mo’s Irish Pub – 13193 Levinson Ln., Noblesville – mosirishpub.com/indy Oct. 20 – Wayne Deaton Oct. 21 – The Bishops

Tortilla soup is a popular option in trendy restaurants. (Submitted photo)
tortilla chips or corn chips, broken; chopped cilantro and green onion for topping Preparations: The night before the game, use a large saucepan to heat oil over medium to high heat. Add onion, red pepper, sausage, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Add broth, tomatoes, salt, chilies and lime juice. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Allow the soup to cool outside on your deck or balcony so that you can refrigerate it overnight. On game day, reheat the soup and pack it into a Coleman Powerchill hot/cold thermoelectric cooler for transport to the game. Another option is to place the soup pot onto a towel in a room-temperature, insulated cooler. Cover the pot with more towels to keep it warm during your drive to the game. As you ladle the soup into bowls or mugs, top each with tortilla chips, and serve with cilantro and green onion.

EDGE focuses on leadership By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Zeke Turner is a firm believer in EDGE Mentoring CEO Dave Neff’s objectives. Carmel-based Mainstreet served as the EDGE X sponsor. A conference sold-out crowd of 1,500 attended the leadership conference at Grace Church in Noblesville. Turner said Mainstreet, the nation’s largest developer of healthcare transitional properties, has sponsored a few other EDGE events and has had employees become part of the mentoring program. “They’ve had a great experience, because what you get are people who have done well in different areas of life, who want to give back and speak to younger people,” Turner said. “For a lot of young people, and I was this way, you want to grow and develop, but you don’t know where to go to get advice. This gives a structured environment where people can go for advice. Hopefully they pay that back later in their lives.” Turner, a Carmel resident, was one of six speakers in the conference, which had CBS basketball analyst and former Indiana Pacers player Clark Kellogg as the emcee. Grace senior pastor Dave Rodriquez also was one of the speakers. “Mainstreet’s mission is to transform lives. So, for us, it’s not just the work we do but it’s also the way we impact others and hopefully inspire them to be better,” Turner said. “Here we have a chance to speak to people, most of them younger, and actually give them a sense of what could be instead of what is and inspiring hope.” Many of the speakers talked about their Christian faith guiding the way they lead.

shared. “I hope people take this, are able to learn something, and go back to their organization and apply,” he said. Turner, 39, spoke about creating a culture of excellence. He spoke about how his company has a no-gossiping rule and discourages negativity. “Culture starts with us and us acting and behaving in a certain way,” he said. “As we do that, that culture gets better. That allows us to recruit more people. There is a compounding effect that happens in organizations. It takes awhile. We’ve been so fortunate at Mainstreet to have that exist. I want other organizations to have that, too.” Jessica Honegger’s message was to lead with a vision. She is the founder of Noonday Collection, which uses fashion to create meaningful opportunity to others.

Mommy and Me event set By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com It took Rachel Tabler several years to move her business from her home to a spot near the Carmel Arts & Design profile District. “We decided we want to give back to the community,” Tabler said. “When we do the Local Love event, it’s because we want to introduce the vendors who were in the place we were to the community.” The 2nd You & Boutique will sponsor its second Local Love event called Mommy and Me from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Oct. 22 at the store, 411 N. Range Line Rd., Carmel. This is the second Local Love event for the shop, which opened in April. The vendor event will feature Cafe Baby, which creates fresh fruit, vegetable and dinner purees free of chemicals and preservatives and delivers them to the customer’s door. Cafe Baby co-founder Jeannie Marrugo asked Tabler if she wanted to sell her food at her boutique. “We’re not quite ready for that now, but I said, ‘Let’s make an event around that,’” Tabler said. “So we decided there are a lot of moms that might be expecting or just had babies. We put together a group of people in small businesses who are catering toward mothers and babies.” The 2nd You provides services for busy mothers who don’t have time to get to

everything. “So we give you the gift of time by being an extra set of hands,” Tabler said. “We do laundry, cleaning, errands and cooking. We do food prep. We help with parties.” Tabler sells Skinny Coconut Oil in the boutique so that will be part of Mommy and Me. “We explain how it can be used for mother and baby,” Tabler said. “We’ll have samples and things you can try. It’s really to learn more about services that are out there.” There will be live music from Jenna Epkey in the latter part of the day.

Colts defensive end Kendall Langford has teamed up with Carmel couple Matt and Dee Brereton to open Juice Bar in Carmel. health Langford has two young children and said his family tries to be more health conscious and stay away from fast food, preferring natural choices. Langford said Juice Bar smoothies are nothing short of amazing, and his kids enjoy the healthy refreshments. “You feel good about it,” he said. “It’s like a treat.” Juice Bar offers 10 to 15 lunch-menu options as well as a wide-variety of juices, cleanses, smoothies and shots. Juice Bar also offers take-home cleanses and juice-to-dinner kits. Langford said his personal favorite is Sweet Greens, a mix of jalapeño, celery, kale, spinach, cucumber, parsley and lemon.

Co-owner Matt Brereton said they are on track to open two or three more Juice Bars in Indiana between now and next year, with a

Cones Creamery now open By Heather Collins • news@currentincarmel.com The first location of Cones Creamery has opened at 5790 E. Main St. in Carmel. Owner John Marod plans to New biz open two more locations in Carmel in 2017 and eight additional locations throughout Hamilton County by 2020. For Marod, the ice cream business is a family tradition. Marod’s mother and father owned two ice cream parlors, and Marod’s son, Matt, is the general manager of the first Cones Creamery. Each ice cream cone comes with a candy corn at the bottom — a trick Marod said he picked up from his parents’ parlor that helps prevent ice cream from leaking out the tip of the cone. Cones Creamery features 32 flavors of Hershey’s Ice Cream from The Hershey Creamery Company, as well as sundaes, shakes and floats. The location has several amenities including indoor and outdoor seating, bike racks, dog ties and free Wi-Fi. “Hershey’s Ice Cream is the creamiest in the market,” Marod said. “It’s the real deal.” Cones Creamery will be open year-round and will soon offer a lunch menu, including hot

dogs, soft pretzels and pizza slices, as well as various seasonal treats. According to Marod, more than 500 residents attended the grand opening of the Main St. location Oct. 1. “Everyone’s in such good spirits when they come here,” Marod said. “All your problems are left behind when you’re eating ice cream in a traditional parlor.” For seasonal hours and more, find Cones Creamery on Facebook. Hershey’s Ice Cream and the Hershey Creamery Company are not affiliated with The Hershey’s Company, makers of Hershey’s Kisses.

City Square of Linz, Austria. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Linz: Forgetting Hitler Commentary by Don Knebel Linz, the third-largest city in Austria, has been home to men with lasting influence. Current residents would like to travel forget one of them. Linz was founded as a trading village by the Romans on both sides of the Danube River, 19 miles south of Austria’s current border with the Czech Republic. By the 15th century, it had become the most important city in the Holy Roman Empire, attracting people from all across Europe. Johannes Kepler lived in Linz from 1612 to 1626, teaching mathematics. While there, he discovered his third law of planetary motion. On Oct. 1, 1762, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, then 6, gave his first public performance at a Linz Inn. He stopped by Linz in late 1783, where he wrote his 36th Symphony in four days. Nine-year-old Adolph Hitler moved with his parents to Linz, where he lived until he was 18. On March 13, 1938, Hitler announced to cheering crowds the annexation of Austria from the tiny balcony of Linz’s town hall, gain-
ing Linz the Nazi title of “City of the Founding of the Greater German Reich.” Hitler dreamed of making Linz, which he considered his “home town,” the cultural center of Europe and made grandiose plans for a museum in Linz to display art stolen from the Jews of Europe. The plans were never realized. Today, Linz, with a population of about 200,000, is a recognized center of electronic media and one of 69 UNESCO “Creative Cities.” An unusually large city square, dating to the 13th century, features a marble statue celebrating the Holy Trinity and hosts outdoor markets year round. Linz guides show visitors the inn where Mozart first performed and the university and buildings honoring Kepler. Confronting their city’s association with Hitler, guides also point to the streets and monuments remembering the victims of Nazi horrors.
