KRISTEN’S PHARMACY TIPS: When receiving a new medication, it’s important to know the answers to these five questions: What is the name of the medicine and what is it supposed to do?
WHERE HELPING YOU STAY HEALTHY COMES WITH A BIG DOSE OF CONVENIENCE. With flu season quickly approaching, it’s good to remember that Kroger of Carmel is here with a convenient, full-service pharmacy. Kristen, manager of the pharmacy, is quick to point out the importance of getting a flu shot, especially for those who are over 65. “It prevents respiratory flu, which can worsen into a case of pneumonia.” She also encourages customers to stay up to date with vaccinations, including the shingles vaccine. Kristen says that service is what sets Kroger’s pharmacy apart and that her staff is always eager to go above and beyond. “Sometimes customers are unable to pick up their prescriptions, so we provide free

S.C. Gov. Haley addresses racial equality at Indiana GOP Fall Dinner By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley – the first minority woman governor in her state – spoke to the Indiana Republican Party politics about how to “wipe away the clutter of prejudices” when it comes to racial equality. Her remarks were to a crowd of more than 900 at the Ritz Charles in Carmel Oct. 27 for the Indiana GOP Fall Dinner. Haley made national headlines for leading the charge to remove the Confederate flag from her statehouse after a reported white supremacist shot and killed nine people at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in June. But she said she didn’t act just in response to the tragedy. She said racial equality is something she’s been aware of her entire life, having grown up with two Indian parents in a small town. She told the story of citizens calling the police when they saw her father in his turban. Haley not only talked about the shooting at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church but also the death of Walter Scott, who was shot by police in her state when he was pulled over for a broken taillight in April. She said she was proud there was no violence in response, but instead, the legislature passed laws requiring body cameras for police. “If we scream less and listen more, we can make a lot of progress,” she said. Haley said she’s proud of her state’s response to racism and tragedy, and she said riots aren’t the answer. “The riots in Ferguson and Baltimore were senseless,” she said. “You know, black lives do matter. Most of the businesses that were destroyed in these riots were owned by black owners. Many of the people who were injured in the riots were black.” In addition, Haley talked about how creating jobs and improving education are part of the solution. “We’re creating opportunity for everyone,” she said. “That is a huge deal for racial equality and that is the New South.” She defended her push for identification cards to be required to vote, which some political pundits described as a way to disenfranchise black

voters. “Requiring people to show a voter ID is a reasonable request, not a racist measure,” she said. “If we quit the shouting and race-baiting rhetoric, we can work together for all of our citizens.” And while she stands firmly behind her call to remove the Confederate flag, she said it’s unfair to think that those who wave the flag are all racists. “There are many honorable decent people who revere that flag in our state,” she said. In the end, Haley said she doesn’t think her state or her party is prejudiced. “I would not have won the Republican primary if we were a racially charged party,” she said. Prior to Haley’s remarks, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence revved up the crowd about his hope for Republican victories in the upcoming elections. “When you put Republican principles in practice, you are guaranteed two things,” Pence said. “You are guaranteed results, but you are also guaranteed opposition.” When it comes to results, he pointed to the fact that Forbes Magazine recently named Indiana the eighth-best state to do business in and how unemployment rates have dipped to 4.5 percent — the lowest level since July 2007. As for the opposition, he joked, “Some days I have to open the newspaper with a stick.”

Union carpenters urge boycott By Ann Marie Shambaugh annmarie@youarecurrent.com As the Olivia on Main continues to take shape at Old Meridian and Main Streets, drivers circling the development roundabout at that intersection also might see protestors holding a big yellow sign urging a boycott of the five-story project, which includes luxury apartments and retail space. The protestors are from the Indiana/Kentucky/Ohio Regional Council of Carpenters, and according to a handbill they distribute, they are calling for the boycott because The Olivia on Main is being built, at least in part, by Midwest Constructors, which it states “does not pay its carpenters Central Indiana’s area standard wages and fringe benefits.” Midwest Constructors did not return a call seeking comment, but its website states it is affiliated with the Associated Builders and Contractors, a “professional construction trade association dedicated to … the free trade enterprise system.” Michael Patarino, senior vice president of Keystone Realty Group, said in a statement the picketers have been calling for boycotts at non-union projects in the area for years, and

they have not directly contacted his company. “Our project is currently using non-union carpenters for the concrete and wood framing work,” Patarino stated. “Indiana law does not require the use of union trades on construction projects, but it does allow unions the right to picket construction project sites as long as they avoid disrupting construction operations and remain on public property.” Carmel police said they have not received any complaints regarding the picketers, who stand at the intersection weekday mornings. According to the picketers’ website, supportlocalcarpenters.com, the union is calling for boycotts at dozens of places in Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky.

Ham. Co. firefighters in a hot situation for charity By Chris Bavender • news@currentincarmel.com Several Hamilton County firefighters have purposefully put themselves into a hot situation, but not the kind that fundraiser involves flames or burning. Twelve specially selected firefighters are featured in a 2016 calendar being sold to benefit the Hamilton County Fallen Firefighters Memorial. “We were looking for a creative way to raise funds, and the Ladies Auxiliary really wanted to move with the idea, for obvious reasons,” said Tony Murray, president of the Hamilton County Firefighters Local 4416. “There is a niche here that is somewhat unique.” It’s been 10 years since a similar calendar was released. “If we were to do a calendar project every year it would take away from the novelty of it,” said Jessi Emerson, with the Noblesville Ladies Fire Auxiliary. “The combination of a 10year anniversary and the need to raise funds for the memorial presented a perfect opportunity to do this project.” Firefighters from Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville and Westfield are featured in the calendar.

“Where’s Amy?” … I had a once-ina-lifetime opportunity to interview director Patricia Riggen before her film “The 33” screened to a soldout crowd at the Heartland Film Festival. “The 33” comes out Nov. 13 and stars Antonio Banderas, Juliette Binoche, James Brolin and Lou Diamond Phillips. The film is based on the real events of a 2010 mining disaster, in which a group of 33 miners were trapped inside the San Jose Mine in Chile for more than two months. I also had a wonderful time meeting Emmy Award-winning director and writer James Sadwith, along with Hollywood celebrities Alex Wolff (“My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2”) and Stefania Owen (“The Lovely Bones”) at the sold-out world premiere screening of “Coming Through The Rye.” The Heartland Film Festival brought filmmakers from around the world to Indiana to screen their films at the AMC Castleton and Traders Point near Zionsville.

The first year, they gave away 400 coats. The program has grown every year since to help fight the winter chill, providing families with coats, gloves, hats and scarves. In the years since its formation, Hamilton County Kids Coats has expanded to 17 churches across the county. Last year the organization gave away 3,251 coats and served 679 families. Carmel Clay Schools, churches, libraries and businesses collected more than 6,000 coats

Carmel grad helps launch website to empower college women By Chris Bavender • news@currentincarmel.com They say necessity is the mother of invention and that’s exactly how thelala.com was born. cover story As sophomores at Purdue, Katherine Crowley and Molly Longest - both communication majors - needed writing samples and a creative outlet. So, they created a website called purduelala.com. “It was a great way for us to practice our skills in journalism, photography and design, and by our second semester senior year, we had garnered a good following,” said Longest, a Carmel High School graduate. “We had a few girls at Purdue approach us about wanting to take the site over once we graduated, and also got interest from girls at other universities who wanted a Lala for their campus. We realized we had an opportunity to turn this site that had become our favorite hobby into a business.” So the duo built a website in May 2013 after graduating from Purdue and beta tested it for a year to gauge interest. Longest said response was “overwhelming” and officially launched the Lala in August. The online magazine has contributors from 95 campuses around the world, including France, Germany,
and the Netherlands. “The site itself has developed into something that we are so proud of. We’ve recruited a team of 200 college women who create all the content on the Lala as well as 100 marketing and PR reps,” Longest said. “So our team alone has gone from just Katherine and I to 300 amazing college women who are thought leaders, creatives and marketing powerhouses.” Powerhouses who have come to them, Longest said. “When we launched the first site after graduation, we hand picked a few younger girls at Purdue to be our first contributors, but then from then on we just started receiving emails from girls all over the country asking how they could be a contributor for their schools,” she said. “It was all organic expansion through word of mouth and social media and that was so incredible to not only see that girls were loving the site and our mission, but they wanted to be a part of it. That’s probably the best compliment ever.” Longest and Crowley just celebrated their one year anniversary of living in NYC - moving there March 1, 2014, and running the site fulltime ever since. “That summer after we graduated, we each moved back home to get our first site off the
ground – I went back to Carmel and Katherine went back to Cape Cod and our parents were kind and supportive enough to let us use their kitchen tables as our temporary offices,” Longest said. “It was in December of 2013 that we entered into a business competition at the Entrepreneurship Advancement Center in Fishers hoping to further our business along.” The competition was a nine-week workshop. Competitors were assigned a local business person to help guide them through building a business plan. “We were assigned to Gerry Hays, a professor of startups at the Kelley School of Business and the co-founder at Slane Capital,” Longest said. “We had always wanted to be in NYC because it’s really the digital media hub of the U.S., and had mentioned this to Gerry and he felt so strongly about our site that he told us he wanted to invest in our company and get us there.” Staying motivated can be tough at times. “But Katherine and I are just so in love with the Lala that we’re excited each day to wake up and do our job. Also, when you have a team of 300 of the most amazing college women working with you, that makes our job a dream,” she said. “But it is difficult to stay focused at times and we’ve just had to learn our working style and how we can be most
• Childhood: I was born in Munster and moved to Carmel when I was 2 years old. • Schools: Forest Dale Elementary, Clay Junior High, Carmel High School, Purdue • Siblings: I have two sisters, Lily, who is 26, and Sophie, who is 17 and a senior at Camel High School right now. • Do your parents still live in Carmel? They do! In the same house we grew up in! • What did you enjoy most about growing up in Carmel? I loved so many things about growing up in Carmel! My best experiences all came from school really. We’re so lucky to be in the school system that we are and have the opportunities that we do. I was in show choir in high school (the Accents) and have so many fond memories of that time. I was also really involved in student government and just had a wonderful group of friends growing up. We’re all still really close today and every time I’m back in Indiana for holidays we all still get together and it’s like nothing ever changed. • What sort of child were you? Funny? Serious? Athlete? I was a funny, creative and imaginative kid. I’m definitely the goofiest of all my siblings, and always had my hands in some kind of artistic project whether it was drawing, making jewelry, playing guitar, writing music or putting together photo shoots with my friends. I also had, and still have, quite the imagination. I think to be an entrepreneur you just have to because you have to be able to envision something that doesn’t already exist in order to make it happen.
productive. The beauty of working for yourself is that you can set your own schedule. So for me, I know that the time I have the most trouble concentrating is from 4 to 7 p.m., so I’ll normally take a break at that time, go for a run, get groceries, make dinner and then get back to work from 8 p.m. on.” They may work a lot, Longest said, but it all boils down to loving what you do and finding a routine that works. “Knowing where we see the Lala going in the next few years is the biggest motivator of all,” she said. So, where is the Lala headed? Could a print magazine be down the road? “For now we’re going to stay digital, but we see our brand extending into so many outlets. We’d love to do more physical campus events in the future, or a big annual retreat in NYC, or put on a Lala music and arts festival, or do a campus tour – the possibilities are endless,” she said. “We also see our brand extending into product hopefully soon through e-commerce and brand collaborations. And, who knows, maybe a book down the line. But right now our main goal is just to continue to spread the site and our mission to as many college women as we can and keep creating amazing content.”

FR O M T HE BA C KSH O P Across the table comes a forecast We had occasion to dine with a customer and his bride recently. The discussion, of course, turned to politics, as inevitably is the case when we all get together. Our guest is a rather astute fellow, well educated and on the corporate fast track, it seems. We talked about the Republican Party, and whether it really knows what the heck it is doing. Our guest was quick to point out that presidential aspirant Donald Trump (R-Billions) would fade after the holidays. Then came forth the poll results showing Trump trailing Ben Carson (R-Md.) in Iowa. Is this the beginning of the end, as our guest believes? It well could be, but we all agreed that after the holidays is the time to really zone in on results. You may find it as interesting as we did that our guest was quick to note John Kasich (R-Ohio) is, in his opinion, an “incredibly viable challenger” and “I think his numbers will improve” in the new year. We’re not so sure, but that would be interesting to watch. ••• You might have seen union construction workers picketing across the street from the Olivia on Main project at the roundabout at West Main and Old Meridian streets.

Tick tock
Commentary by Terry Anker
The ticking of mechanical clocks can be heard in almost all of the communal rooms of our home. We wind them each week. We transport them to Arcadia, Ind., with utmost attention for their routine care and maintenance. And we use them for their intended purpose, to tell us the time, as some have been employed for many, many decades. The constant tick tock proves to be a familiar and soothing backdrop corresponding with the ordinary sounds of a living household. The fan cycling on the refrigerator, the whoosh of air through the ductwork and the leaves rustling outside the window in an overnight rain – all contribute to the symphony of an embracing chord that wraps us with a sense of domestic sanctuary. My father-in-law, a stalwart member of the Greatest Generation, elevated my interest in horology to a new level. First visiting the home of the successful businessman, father and World War II Army Air Corps bellygunner, I was struck by his own modest, if
well curated, collection of antique clocks. His attention was at once directed to the practical – taking a train each day to his office in downtown Chicago required constant reminder of routine schedule – but also in the mechanical complexity, even wonder, in their movements and elegance of design. His clocks are now our sons’; and, there is one in my office at work and my study at home. They each dutifully remind me with a gentle chime that time is passing and as each moment expires another follows – each tick is followed by a tock, then a tick again and so on. In it, there is a comforting continuity. Sometimes the chime can be a bit of a nudge to progress to the next duty. But always, its steady reminder reassures that simple upkeep preserves both beauty and practicality. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real.
– Thomas Merton
This past week I was supposed to be enjoying fall break while my kids went back to school (I teach in a neighhumor boring district with a different schedule). I had it all scheduled: I’d work just a little, but mostly I’d be bingewatching “Breaking Bad” and prepping the yard for Halloween. Alas, my beautiful week full of fun and relaxation was not to be. Nevertheless, girl power saw me through. Sunday night had me pulling our Honda Accord into a hotel parking lot on the way home from the Colts-Patriots debacle to find a screw embedded in the driver side tire. I moped around on Monday hoping Doo would handle the flat. He did not. So on Tuesday after a quick YouTube video and a glimpse at the owner’s manual, I nearly sprained my wrist trying to get the lug nuts loosened. Eventually I managed to jack up the car and put on the spare. I was covered in grease and sweat, and had to spend another two hours at Discount Tire, but I did it. Girl power! The next morning I woke up to horrible sinus pressure coupled with the realization that I had unfortunately scheduled a dentist appointment for noon. Wednesday was a complete wash except to say that despite having my poor teeth drilled, I managed to carpool four kids to five activities, make dinner and set up a witch, a grim reaper and a zombie Maddie without offing anyone. Girl power! Thursday I felt even worse despite an Alka Seltzer Cold cocktail to wash down some Benadryl. After almost three hours of driving around the Southside to find flooring for our fecal-contaminated house (see previous column), I had to take our stupid dog to the stupid vet for a stupid vaccination. She’s an immature 70-pound Lab with anxiety issues who cannot tolerate small, enclosed spaces. Girl power not only gave me the patience to bring her home, but also to spend the evening battling extension cords and orange twinkle lights. The perfect fall break it was not, but thank you Jesus for girl power! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentincarmel. com.

REA D ER ’ S V I EW Destruction of healthy, mature trees troubling
Editor, Watching my old neighbor’s Cape Cod-style home from the 1940-’50s being razed by heavy equipment, I am shocked once again by the destruction of perfectly good housing. This appears to be happening all over Carmel, and especially the older sections of the city. Last year I witnessed the same event on the southeast side of my First Avenue double location, and particularly troubling was and will be the wanton disregard for beautiful, healthy, mature trees. This appears to be done solely for much higher cost “no lot,” oversized (for the area) new
homes. Obviously money is the reason all of these events are occurring, and I’ve been told by Carmel Urban Forestry and the Heartlands (central Indiana) Sierra Club that people can legally take out any and all trees on private property. This does not appear to be a private ownership issue when an entire neighborhood is radically changed from dense, lovely tree covers that provide a myriad of human health benefits, to another dirt lot to be constructed into a newly planted landscape for a new house! I read the Current regularly to keep up on local events, and I

Sister act: Zionsville sisters share love of theater in two shows By Heather Lusk • news@currentinwestfield.com One is playing a sullen teen. The other will portray a bunny. Yet these girls are more alike than different. Sisters Claire and Cynthia Kauffperformances man have found themselves in paid productions for the first time in their relatively short acting careers. Claire, a third grader at Pleasant View Elementary, will perform in the Indiana Repertory Theater production of “Peter Rabbit and Me” this month. Cynthia, a freshman at Zionsville Community High School, is the understudy for the character Wednesday Addams at Beef & Boards’ production of “The Addams Family.” Both girls began acting at The Little Black Box in Lebanon and have performed in community and small theaters throughout the Indianapolis area. The girls are the oldest and youngest in their family of four children. Kim Kauffman, the girls’ mother, said Claire auditioned for her first role to follow in her big sister’s footsteps. But after performing in “Annie” this summer, Kauffman noticed there was more to it. “I realized, oh no, she has the bug,” she said. Cynthia auditioned for “The Addams Family” simply for the experience of being on that stage, never expecting to be cast. Since understudies only perform if the lead is ill, Kauffman approached Beef & Boards to ask if they would consider a single performance for family and friends. The idea was approved. So on Nov. 4, Cynthia, along with the regular cast, will hold a special performance for which tickets can only be reserved online. There will be no meal included, as is common with Beef & Boards dinner theater, but patrons may bring their own food and beverage. Ticket prices are reduced to $27 as a

result and can be purchased online at www.TheAddamsFamily. MyEvent.com. On the website, Cynthia is asking for donations for a friend,
Rosie, who has Cystic Fibrosis. Rosie, 15, received a lung transplant but is now receiving treatment for chronic rejection. Both girls met in the theater, so Cynthia would like to raise funds to send her friend to New York to see Broadway shows. Beef & Boards generally doesn’t employ understudies, but Cynthia has found the experience to be quite valuable. The seriousness of the atmosphere she finds different than the casual rehearsal schedule she has faced in prior productions. “It’s kind of hard to keep up with them,” she said. “They get the whole show done in two weeks. It’s a taste of what they do in the professional business.” The sisters have found it helpful to have someone in the family who understands their needs as performers. “It’s fun having somebody else who knows what I’m talking about,” said Cynthia, who utilized her sister’s help to practice lines, which have to be memorized precisely as the understudy. “Whenever I get in a show, she’ll make sure I’m practicing my lines. She’ll practice them with me,” Claire said. “If I have a dance, she’ll show me the things I’m doing wrong, and she’ll show me how to do it.” Claire insisted she helps her sister in other ways too, including her big sister’s wardrobe. “Sometimes you say ‘What should I wear?’ and I help you pick that out,” Claire said. Claire heard the Indiana Repertory Theater was holding open auditions and asked her mother if she could attend with her sister. Both girls auditioned and received callbacks, but by then, Cynthia had been offered the understudy role. Claire auditioned a second time and was cast as bird, girl and bunny in “Peter Rabbit and Me.” “Peter Rabbit and Me” is playing from Nov. 21 to Dec. 20. Tickets are available at IRTLive.com.

Jennie DeVoe just recently put the finishing touch on her album, literally. The inspiration for the album title, “Picking music Flowers on the Moon,” comes from a line in one of her songs. “It’s an old-fashioned drawing,” DeVoe said. “I was a big fan of Maurice Sendak (illustrator known for children’s books). I drew a couple of moons, one for the cover and one for the back.” DeVoe will release her new album at two concerts Nov. 7 at The Warehouse, 254 1st Ave. S.W., Carmel. The shows will be at 7 and 9:30 p.m. “That’s (album release) a good reason for people to come because it’s something that hasn’t been available to people before,” said DeVoe, who lives on the north side of Indianapolis. This is singer-songwriter DeVoe’s 10th album. The album, under DeVoe’s own label, was recorded live in August at Aten Place in Boyne Falls, Mich. Aten Place is a big barn the owners converted into a concert hall. It was DeVoe’s second appearance at the barn. “It had some magic to it,” DeVoe said. “So it was just a matter of getting the right levels.” Because it was a live recording, DeVoe said the price of producing wasn’t as costly. “This CD sort of made itself,” she said. “This show had some magic to it. So it was just a matter of getting the right levels.
11505 N. Illinois St. Carmel, IN 46032 MarketDistrict.com 317.569.0171
So there was no overhead except for me making the art.” The album includes some of DeVoe’s original songs and covers of other artists, such as a cover of Carole King’s “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” and an acoustic version of Sly and the Family Stone’s “Que Sera.” The inspiration for another cover came from listening to her father’s older records. “He listened to Billie Holiday and Louie Armstrong,” DeVoe said. “I remember listening to ‘I Put a Spell on You’ by Nina Simone. It’s a culmination of me hearing a version from everybody, from the Creedence Clearwater Revival version to Nina Simone. It was me on guitar and my bass player.” Prior to this release, DeVoe promoted her last album, Radiator, though a Kickstarter campaign. “We tripled our expectations, so that was a big sigh of relief,” DeVoe said. Now DeVoe is eager to return to The Warehouse. “We did enjoy our last show at The Warehouse in May, which sold out,” DeVoe said. “We could have sold out two shows. So it was the venue owner’s idea to have two shows back-to-back.” DeVoe said it will be completely different from her last Warehouse show. “I’m always doing something new so I’m not completely repeating myself. We’ll even throw in a couple new songs that we’ve never done before. It keeps us all on our toes,” DeVoe said. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door. For tickets, visit liveforthemusic.com

CHS actors share roles By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School theater teacher Jim Peterson didn’t have a hard time casting the lead actors in “The 39 Steps.” theater Everyone gets their shot. “We’re calling it a company approach. The idea is there are 19 actors playing 150 different characters,” Peterson said. “They say from the film there are 150 characters, but there are not 150 speaking parts. We have them play all the leads, but things like furniture, the dog, the sheep, and they play the car police chase them in. “The main character, Richard Hanna, has a hat and coat, and whoever is playing him has the hat and coat. He’s the one who gets accused of murder and has to clear his name. I hope the audience is going to follow it.” The performances for “The 39 Steps” will be at 7 p.m. on Nov. 12, 13 and 14 along with a 2 p.m. show on Nov. 14 at CHS Studio Theater. Peterson said the play is more madcap fun than the 1935 movie version directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Sophomore Eric Bembenek said he’ll play a character in one scene and then a different actor will play the same character.
“It’s a fun show and has a lot of twists and turns,” Bembenek said. “It’s kind of confusing, but it adds to the humor to it.” Senior Michael Davis said his work with Comedy Sportz, an improv group, helps with this play. Davis plays Hanna and one of the Bembenek villains. “I’m used to it because I play unscripted roles with my improv group,” Davis said. “So I’m used to jumping around and switching characters.” Davis said he helps explain what will happen to Davis the audience before the play. Senior Kate Milazzo said it’s a different kind of theater than most are used to seeing. “We all get to play these fun, interesting characters,” Milazzo said. Milazzo

Polenta: Taking dinner to the next level Commentary by Ceci Martinez Take a bland and boring polenta dish to the highest level! This simple but incredibly delicious recipe, “Tomato, Olives and Capers Sauce over Polenta” is colorful, inexpensive and best of all is a 1, 2, 3 meal, perfect for the fall/winter season. Note: Wine suggestion: Vintjs Petite Sirah or Chariot Gypsy, from Trader Joe’s; both great red wines from California go beautifully with this recipe. The tomato sauce and polenta can be prepared up to three days in advance. Cover and refrigerate separately. Reheat at serving. TOMATO, OLIVES AND CAPERS SAUCE OVER POLENTA Serves: 4 Ingredients: 3 cups milk, 1/2 cup light cream or half-and-half, 1 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, 1 cup polenta, 1/2 cup freshly grated Swiss Gruyere cheese, 2 large onion, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into thin halfrounds, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes in juice, 1/3 cup pitted Kalamata olives, 1 tablespoon capers, 2 cloves garlic, chopped, 2 fresh or dried bay leaves, 1 teaspoon dried oregano Directions: In a large saucepan, bring milk, cream, 1 teaspoon of salt and nutmeg to a
boil over medium heat. (Watch carefully, milk will boil over quickly.) Add polenta in a steady stream and stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook until mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the cheese, and mix all well. The polenta should be creamy. To prepare sauce, in a large skillet combine onions, 2 tablespoon olive oil and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook until caramelized. Add tomatoes and their juices - break tomatoes into small pieces, olives, capers, garlic, bay leaves and oregano and cook, covered over low heat until sauce starts to thicken, about 5 to 8 minutes. Serve polenta right away, topped with sauce all over. Ceci Martinez is a Zionsville resident who was born in New York and raised in Peru. For more of Ceci’s recipes, visitcurrentzionsville.com.

Park presents slavery program By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Conner Prairie Interactive History Park will provide its annual glimpse into what it would be like to be a education fugitive slave in Indiana in 1836. Performances of “Follow the North Star” are Nov. 4, 6, 7, 12-14 and 19-21 at Conner Prairie, 13400 Allisonville Rd., Fishers. The 105-minute program starts at 6:30 p.m. and groups of about 15 people will be staggered every 15 minutes after that, traveling through the grounds. “It’s pretty rare that you’ll find a museum program that lasts this long,” said Rosie Arnold, Conner Prairie education and programs manager. “This one has its staying power because it creates such a strong impact on people, and it remains relevant today.” The program is an underground railroad simulation. “We use our historic grounds to recreate the experience of the underground railroad in Indiana in 1836,” Arnold said. “The guests are playing the role of the fugitive slave. The storyline is you have been brought to Indiana illegally because Indiana was technically a free state. Throughout the course of the

program, you are able to escape and begin your journey north trying to seek freedom.” Arnold said all the characters are based on research on people they know existed. “It gives you a variety of different attitudes and perspectives on people’s feelings about slavery in that time period,” Arnold said. With the guests playing the role of the fugitive slave, Arnold said it is an intense program, so it is not recommended for children under the age of 12. “But it can be a very powerful and worthwhile experience,” Arnold said. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. The cost is $20 for nonmembers and $17 for members.

Cold weather food survey By Joe Drozda and Bob Bley
Written & Created by Roger Bean Musical and Vocal Arrangements by Roger Bean, Michael Borth and Jon Newton
Featuring the hits... Be prepared to serve everyone two servings of this turkey chili. (Submitted photo)
To Prepare: Brown the turkey in a large pot, drain it if you must, and then add everything else. Bring the mixture to a low boil and then reduce the heat to allow the chili to simmer for one hour. Stir the mixture occasionally. Serve with oyster crackers or French bread. If you have children at your party, you can float some hot dogs in this chili for 15 minutes and serve them on buns for the kids. WARNING! Unless you tailgate with wimps, you’ll need to have enough chili to serve everyone at least two bowls of this cold weather favorite! The whole tomatoes become very hot and sooth one’s pipes in the sore throat cold weather post-game tailgate party. Joe Drozda is the author of “The Tailgater’s Handbook” and is considered as the “Father of American Tailgating.” His website is tailgatershandbook.com. He is a resident of Hamilton County.

Football season, in our part of the nation, begins around Labor Day and ends usually after Thanksgiving. Early in the season tailgate temperatures are in the high 80s, with a hot sun that burns us. This is when we need shelter from the sun, we hope for a breeze and we use sunscreen to protect our skin. This is the time of the year we serve cold foods and cold beverages. In a short three months things change a lot. Usually by late season we are expecting cold weather. This is when we eat hot foods and drink hot beverages. This is when we try to find a way to sit in the sun and get a shelter erected so we can be out of the snow, freezing rain and dreaded wind that blows a chill almost right through our bones. We annually survey tailgate lots for menu items and preferences. Here are the 2014 top choices for cold weather main course foods. • Chili is first with 45 percent • Sausage 18 percent • Chicken 10 percent • Non-chili soups 6 percent Cold Weather Turkey Chili Made with ground turkey, this chili avoids a little of the fat of ground beef without losing any of the flavor we require for pre-game and post-game meals. Ingredients: • 2 lbs. ground turkey • 3 pkgs. McCormick’s Chili Mix (or your favorite) • 3 28oz. cans whole peeled tomatoes (un-drained) • 4 15oz. cans dark red kidney beans (un-drained)

Mitch Daniels talks student debt at OneZone event in Carmel
The Carmel High School Choral Department is pleased to announce its upcoming
Holiday Spectacular 2015
By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com
Mitch Daniels, former two-term Indiana governor and now president of Purdue University, spoke to OneZone about higher college education at a luncheon at the 502 East Event Centre in Carmel on Oct. 22. The focus of the speech was on the rising cost of college for students and how Daniels has said he’s made it his mission to provide “higher education at the highest proven value.” Daniels said he’s simultaneously trying to tackle two problems facing college graduates: rising debt and scarce job opportunities. Some people don’t value a college degree like they used to, Daniels noted, citing that 75 percent of people said a college degree was necessary in 2010 and now only 43 percent said it was necessary in 2014. “I hope that is a sticker-shock effect or a temporary phenomenon,” he said. “Our higher education system, even with its enormous problems, is still a major advantage that we don’t want to let go of.” He cited that 96 percent of college provosts think they are preparing college graduates for the job market, but only 43 percent of the American public and 33 percent of business employers agree. As a result, you see a growing number of college graduates taking jobs that don’t require degrees. From 2000 to 2012, the number of waiters with college degrees doubled from 7 percent to 15 percent. The same goes for dishwashers, jumping from 1.5 percent to 3 percent. There was even a 69 percent increase in the number of janitors with college degrees. Far fewer college graduates are becoming entrepreneurs and starting their own businesses.

Because they can’t find a high-paying job and they are saddled with debt, about 45 percent of college graduates are living with family. “I want to provide an education at Purdue that is so well-suited to today’s economy that your kids don’t move into your basement,” Daniels said.

Carmel grad launches Unplugged By Audrey Bailey • news@currentincarmel.com Ryan Crean knew cosmetology was her calling ever since the awkward, not-soglorious days of middle kickstarter school. “In seventh grade, I went through my not-soattractive phase. I had horrible skin. I had braces. My hair was like an afro. I just was not feeling good about myself. I didn’t know what to do,” Crean said. “So, my Crean mom actually bought me a straightener; that was my first straightener. And after I used that, my life just changed.” Since that pivotal moment, Crean has worked in top hair salons, specialized in hair extensions and has even founded her own beauty company. And now, Crean has made her passion for beautiful, stylish hair something obtainable to anyone. Crean’s new product Unplugged is a compactsized, cordless hair-straightening flat iron that can be taken and used with ease, on the go. Featured on Kickstarter, Crean hopes to raise $35,000 by Nov. 5 of this year in order to help make her goal of mass production a reality.
The straighteners, designed by Ryan Crean, have built-in USB charging ports that can hook into any device. (Submitted photo)
“From there, our goal is to have all the flatirons here and everything starting by the new year,” Crean said. “I came up with it because I’ve been traveling so much (for) my career, and I needed something. There are some times I’ve been at a beach shoot, and I didn’t have anything,” Crean said. Unplugged is revolutionary in design, not only due to its compact size but also because of its many special features. It comes equipped with a zero to 450-degree temperature setting and has a built-in USB charging port that can hook into any device, anywhere. The flat iron also uses a lithium battery that can hold a charge for up to an hour. For more, visit unpluggedbeauty.com

Hardwood vs. engineered floors Commentary by David Decker This time of year many homeowners are looking into new flooring before the holidays. Hardwood floors are INdoor living a classic, beautiful choice that will last for years to come. If you’re considering adding hardwood floors, however, you will need to decide whether to install solid or engineered hardwoods. Both are 100 percent wood and a valuable investment in your home, but there are some very important distinctions. Solid hardwood floors are created from one solid piece of wood. The thickness can vary, but generally between 3/4 inch and 7/16 inch. Engineered wood, on the other hand, is constructed from multiple layers of wood with a solid wood top layer. Below the top layer is a core of fiberboard layers followed by a hardwood backing. This unique construction keeps engineered hardwoods safer from buckling and warping. Because of this they work well in any floor in your home, including basements. Because they are more stable you can get wider and longer planks. Solid hardwoods, on the other hand, are sensitive to high humidity and con-
tract with the change in moisture. Because of this, they are only recommended for first floors or above. Most assume that solid hardwoods are more expensive, but that’s not always the case. Considerations such as installation method, condition of the subfloor and labor costs can greatly affect the final cost. Engineered hardwoods tend to be more DIY-friendly and may save you money on installation. They can be installed as a “floating” floor in which the boards hook into one another and “float” above the subfloor. Hardwoods, on the other hand, should always be installed by a professional and are glued, nailed or stapled to a wooden subfloor. Both hardwoods and engineered hardwoods come in a wide variety of lengths and widths for any room. David Decker is president of the Affordable Companies, which include Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms and now Affordable Custom Flooring. They are based in Carmel (575-9540, www.theaffordablecompanies.com). E-mail home improvement questions to david.decker@theaffordablecompanies.com.

HAPPY HOMES MAKE HAPPY LIVES. There are no trophies for being “average,” according to Randy Sorrell. (Submitted photo)
Why average stinks Commentary by Randy Sorrell It’s a constant battle for those of us forwarding the definition of luxury outdoor living spaces. How do we outdoor living fight mediocrity? How do we behave differently so that your backyard living space is not a “knock off” of the rest of the neighborhood? How do we NOT be average (without busting the budget), because there are no trophies for average? Here are four proven strategies to escape the vanilla of average: 1. Hire a proven designer or landscape architect with a styled history of success, and a few failures mixed in for gumption. And then follow their lead. Challenge them when your gut tells you to. 2. Don’t be afraid. Be bold and benign at the same time. You will likely understand that when the time is appropriate. 3. Personality … yours, must show itself in the deck/patio/landscape/grill station/ lanais, etc. … that finally gets installed. After all, it’s your space and you are
writing the check. 4. Anticipate. The most compelling of the lessons is to anticipate how you hope to use the space. What moments do you hope to create? And it’s more than “I need a four-top table and an umbrella for shade.” It sounds more like “I see myself and my significant other relaxing most evenings with a book and a glass of wine. Ideally we could accommodate a few friends/neighbors/kids for cookouts. And I want it to feel very urban.” Frankly, it’s pretty simple for us to build a space that looks like page 14 of your favorite supplier catalog. And it will look incredible. Just like the hundreds of others that look like page 14 in the city. Or whatever page, of whatever catalog… But we can do better. We must.
What kind of happy are you? Let our experienced designers show you the positive impact of a well designed kitchen or bath remodel that fits your style, your family, and the way you live.

The ‘Pope’s Revenge’ a Christian symbol Commentary by Don Knebel
Teacher of the Month!
CONGRATS!
The winner for this month's Teacher of the Month contest, sponsored by Market District, are: student Sarah Tinaphong and teacher Soo Han, of Carmel. The winning students will get to have a lunchtime party and the teachers will receive gift certificates to Market District. The next deadline to submit an essay is Nov. 15. To submit your 100-word essay about your favorite teacher, email it to Teacher@youarecurrent.com.
During the Cold War, the East German government erected a 1207-foot-tall broadcast tower in East Berlin, intended travel to celebrate the superiority of the Communist system. The plan backfired, constantly reminding East Berliners of what they were missing. Today, the tower is a symbol of a united Berlin. The tower, called Fernsehturm in German, was designed a few years after the Soviet Union had beaten the United States into space with a spherically-shaped satellite named “Sputnik.” To trumpet that achievement, the concrete base of the tower was designed to suggest a rocket, with a sphere representing Sputnik near the apex. The massive sphere, with seven floors inside, was covered with 140 stainless steel panels, designed to gleam in the sunlight. Even before the tower was completed in 1969, residents of Berlin noticed something the East German architects had never anticipated. Sunlight reflecting from the panels of the sphere created a nearly perfect Greek cross, visible throughout the divided city. West Berliners quickly dubbed this Christian symbol in a Communist country the “Pope’s Revenge,”
YOUR AUTUMN LEAVES...
divine retaliation for the government’s removal of crosses from East Berlin’s churches. An embarrassed government reportedly tried painting the tiles to eliminate the cross, without success. When President Ronald Reagan spoke before Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate on June 12, 1987, demanding that Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbechev “tear down this wall,” he spoke of the efforts to eliminate the unintended cross: “There in Berlin, like the city itself, symbols of love, symbols of worship, cannot be suppressed.” Twenty-nine months later, the Berlin Wall came down and Berlin was united. Today, Berlin’s tower attracts more than a million visitors a year, many eating in its revolving restaurant 680 feet above the street. On sunny days, Berlin guides point to the gleaming tower and its cross, proudly noting that other crosses have returned to their churches.
