Battle erupts over joke in report

By Adam Aasen • adam@currentincarmel.com

The gloves are off and the bell has rung. Last week, clerk-treasurer Diana Cordray released a report to the public government to ask for an independent audit of the debt of the Carmel Redevelopment Commission to determine the level of risk of a special benefits tax if the city can’t pay off its bonds. The report ignited a fire for two reasons. First off, Mayor Jim Brainard, his supporters on the Carmel City Council and his accounting firm, Umbaugh & Associates, all felt Cordray that Cordray’s assertion that Carmel has a dangerous level of debt to be inaccurate. Secondly, a comment was accidentally left in a flow chart attached to the report which shocked people. Some call it an innocent, unintentional joke. Others say it’s a vulgar, immature attack. When listing what to do if Carmel didn’t have enough money to pay off its debt, the report instructs people to, “shoot council, castrate mayor, put head between legs, kiss [explicit] goodbye!” This was seen as the final straw by many who were tired of seeing Brainard attacked in the media. Loren Matthes, of Umbaugh, sent out e-mails to defend her firm’s projections about Carmel’s fiscal future. “I don’t think it is helpful for this to be portrayed as just a ‘joke’ by the media as it is a serious matter,” she stated. “The truth of the matter is this is about envious politicians who have been trying to undermine the mayor’s projects and do not appreciate the sophisticated financings. They have tried to manufacture a phony fiscal crisis to scare taxpayers into fearing inability to pay debt or a looming tax increase, when, in reality, Carmel is one of the wealthiest cities in the country with a tax base of $6.5 billion.” Mike Shaver, a consultant with Wabash Scientific, helped Cordray create the report with additional help from City Council President Eric Seidensticker. Seidensticker said he wrote Seidensticker the joke comments, but Shaver takes responsibility for accidentally leaving them

in the report. He said the “irony of the situation” is that the joke was about how extreme it would be to allow Carmel to reach the level when it couldn’t pay off its debt. “Inserting humor into a public discussion is always a risk, but in this case, a careful reading of the humorous flow chart shows that Eric Seidensticker understands the consequences of failing to assure the taxpayers that this fiscal issue is under transparent control,” he said. Shaver said he believes Brainard is trying to use the comments as a distraction from the real substance of the report which is about the seriousness of Carmel’s debt situation. “I believe the CRC has reached a point where politics must be replaced by unbiased fact,” Cordray writes. But city leaders are questioning Cordray and Shaver’s credentials when it comes to financial planning. Brainard said Cordray’s report, “is typical of the sloppy work she has provided the council and the taxpayers.” Matthes said her firm is certified as independent and meets strict guidelines in that regard. “Mike Shaver, owner of Wabash Scientific, is not ‘independent’ in his current advisory role to the clerk-treasurer. Furthermore, it would not be considered an independent analysis if he or anyone were to take Umbaugh’s analysis and simply apply different assumptions directed by the clerk-treasurer or members of the city council,” she stated. “There is no reason for the city to have a second independent TIF Report from another firm, and, in fact, it would be confusing to the bond rating analysts, bond market, let alone Carmel taxpayers.” To read more about thie story, visit currentincarmel.com

Band takes second place news@currentincarmel.com The Carmel High School Marching Band placed second in ISSMA State Finals Marching Band competition Nov. 8 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. The Marching Greyhounds performed among 40 high achievement school marching bands divided into four classes by school enrollment. Avon High School won the competition. Director Chris Kreke said: “I am extremely proud of our student’s performance and accomplishments (Nov. 8) at the ISSMA state championships. They have again added another fantastic chapter to the long history of outstanding Carmel groups at this event.” In addition, the Marching Greyhounds have won the Indiana State School Music Association’s state championship in 1990, 2001, 2002 and 2012. A perennial state finalist, Carmel has placed no lower than third in the ISSMA state championships each year they have competed since 2004. The ensemble won the Bands of America National Championship two times, in 2005 and 2012, and has earned 14 BOA Regional Championships since first competing in BOA in 1990. The band’s 2014 competition show “In the Cards” is a musical and visual journey through the gypsy culture and the “fortune tellers” that are often associated with elements of that culture.. Directed by Kreke and led by drum majors Jack Denger, Kelli Dawson, Abby Zetzl, Mitchell Zimmer, the Marching Band is comprised of 237 students, including winds, percussion and color guard members. In addition to Kreke, Michael Pote, Andrew Cook and Kyle Young direct the band with assistance from Rosie Queen and Jeff Queen. The Carmel High School Bands program includes the marching band and color guard, jazz bands, concert bands, chamber ensembles, winter percussion, and winter guard. More than 400 students participate in these ensembles at Carmel High School. To see updated results and photos from the bands’ competition on Nov. 14, visit www.currentincarmel.com.

Mayor vetoes bill By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Mayor Jim Brainard announced on Friday that he has vetoed the Conservation District bill that was passed for the Johnson Addition neighborhood. As of press time, the Carmel City Council government has an opportunity to override the veto with five votes at its Monday meeting. Current in Carmel will update readers on currentincarmel.com. Four councilors voted in favor of the ordinance – Rick Sharp, Luci Snyder, Carol Schleif and Eric Seidensticker – and three voted against. If none of the votes against switch, then it would be unlikely a two third majority would be reached to override the veto. City Spokesperson Nancy Heck said the Brainard mayor’s primary concern was centered on meetings about the matter and whether they were properly advertised to the public. Supporters of the ordinance to establish the Conservation District say they did their due diligence in informing people about meetings and the petition. They also claim mistruths were reported about what the district would do and that might have scared some councilors unfairly. Supporters told Current that they would wait to release any comments. Opponents of the bill say Main Street should not have been included in the boundaries and that the petition signatures were obtained through questionable means.

Kickstarting friendships By Zach Manges • news@currentincarmel.com JEM Jewellers, of Carmel, wants your help to stamp out bullying with their new line of charms and a Kickstarter campaign. As part of a project to help campaign foster friendships rather than animosity, owner Jan Martin and designer Sarah Clegg teamed up to create a charm that would be a symbol for all wearers to think before acting in a potentially harmful manner. “The problem has gotten worse over the years with cyberbullying and the internet. When I was in school, we didn’t have social media platforms, and now it’s just blown up,” Clegg said. “Bullying has popped up in conversation a lot over the last couple years. We had the ability to create this jewelry, so why not do it?” The campaign is using popular crowd funder Kickstarter to raise $10,000 this month in order to be able to mass produce the charms for necklaces and bracelets, which have been dubbed the “Be a Friend, Not a Bully” line. “We wanted to make sure we were giving the profits to a group that was really actively working and talking in the schools,” Martin said, emphasizing that an understanding of the issue must go hand-in-hand with the charms to truly make an impact. “Students have to buy into the program themselves. It’s not something you can just give out and expect them to not bully anymore. It has to be earned.”

Anti-bullying bracelets are raising support for a Kickstarter campaign with JEM Jewellers. (Submitted photo)

Bullying is a formidable social issue, affecting one third of all youth in elementary and middle school and often creating ripple effects that can lead to serious mental health issues in later adolescence. Of course, the team acknowledged that making a dent in harmful behaviors in this case isn’t just about accessorizing. “I think that bullying is going to happen no matter what. You’ll have those people in life whether you’re 12 or 32 who’ll try to put you down because of their own insecurities,” Clegg said.

Thirty-some red wagons systematically parked against the wall, stand ready to assist with an annual, monumental volunteerism mission. The childhood transport vehicles soon will play a key role in an intermodal logistics operation to be executed primarily by schoolchildren. Each little red wagon, pulled by a student with the crest of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel School stitched on their shirt pocket, will acquire their learning this day, not in the classroom, but in the real world. The adult parishioners of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Catholic Church will provide the resources for a complete Thanksgiving meal delivered to 480 families this season. The schoolchildren are playing a major role this year as they have done for previous years. They will learn not only how to handle and distribute 29,950 pounds of food with military style precision, but more importantly, do so to help their fellow man. Joseph Miller is one such student who will be on hand for this year’s Thanksgiving Basket Building Day. As one of the older students assisting, Joseph has plenty of experience with this major project. In the past, Joseph has served as a bread loader, insuring each loaf he handles is not squeezed too much and gets to the right place. Basket building to help the poor in Hamilton

County is truly an “all-school” project, with each grade accepting responsibility for key roles. Even the youngest of the workforce, while not able to hoist a turkey or fire brigade style transfer gallons of milk from point A to point B, the kindergarten classes provide the personal touch and a little love. Each family will receive alongside the fixings for the perfect Thanksgiving feast, a handmade card extolling greetings and an expression of God’s love. The sixth graders show up armed with scissors and heavy-duty tape. They make flat cardboard into containers to hold the food and ultimately be delivered to the recipient’s home by an OLMC family. The junior high students are in charge of unloading the contents of the refrigerated trucks into the storage building. Fourth and fifth graders pull the wagons and transport the food across a vast parking lot from the storage building to the assembly hall. Third graders prepare packets with valuable information about the various county resources available for people in need. All of this for people they do not know. A good lesson not found in a textbook. Good day, Carmel. Jeff Worrell is a member of the Carmel Redevlopment Commission.He recognizes volunteers on “Connecting with Carmel” on cable channel 16.

Ram still moving forward By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel’s Rajeev Ram has just put the finishing touches on a satisfying 11th season on the ATP Tour. sports Turning 30 in March, Ram said he is on the back end of his professional tennis career. “I love what I do. Personally I’m proud of that, to be able play that long,” said Ram, who will host his EntouRaj for Kids charity tennis event at Carmel Racquet Club at 7 p.m. on Nov. 21. “I feel I certainly have some good years left in me. But it’s just going to be am I having fun doing it and is my body healthy and am I going to keep up. So I don’t foresee any changes. But I do understand it is going to happen when I’m not going to play any more.” Ram, who won the state singles title as a Carmel High School sophomore in 1999, won his only ATP Tour singles title on grass at Newport, R.I., in 2009. The 6-4 Ram has captured seven tour doubles titles, including three with Scott Lipsky. He had his best result in a Grand Slam in September, reaching the doubles semifinals in the U.S. Open with Lipsky before losing to eventual champions Mike and Bob Bryan. “To make the semis of the majors was special because I lost in the quarters five times before that and I just hadn’t been able to get over the hump,” Ram said. “It was more a personal relief than an ultimate goal.”

Ram’s event features Blake This is the fifth year for Ram’s EntouRaj for Kids. Ram has lured James Blake, ranked as high as No. 4 in singles before retiring, and women’s pros Melanie Oudin and Alison Riske. Tickets are $50 for adults and $25 for those ages 5 to 18 and are available at entourajforkids. org. Ram’s charity has two separate grants for juniors and seniors in Central Indiana. One goes to a high-performing athlete who might need expenses for traveling to tournaments. The second grant goes to a few more kids and is based on need. “It’s for kids that are going to college not to play but they’ve had tennis be a part of their life up until now,” Ram said. “We have an essay program where kids can apply. We have a committee that decided winners based on applications.”

Carmel High School’s tradition-rich athletic program added a missing jewel when it recently grabbed its first girls volleyball state crown. Greyhounds coach Rich Coleman said a devoted group of six seniors made the difference. “This group is full of great leaders and selfless individuals and I couldn’t be prouder of them or happier for them,” Coleman said in an e-mail response to Current in Carmel. “They do so much work on and off the court to be successful that it has shown all of the underclassmen what it takes.

Pedcor documents?

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

The Carmel Redevelopment Commission finalized its sale of the former Shapiro’s building in October, but the clerk-treasurer’s office is still waiting on the development documentation. Pedcor bought the former delicatessen space for $2.1 million, about half of which was through forgiveness of a debt owed from the CRC to Pedcor. The Carmel City Council did not approve the sale because it’s not required under law. CRC director Corrie Meyer said there’s nothing to hide and she is happy to make it public once the documents are finalized.

“All of it is still with the recorder’s office,” she said. “Once we get it, I will pass it along.” An exchange of e-mails between Meyer and the clerk-treasurer’s office shows a conflict brewing over these documents. The clerktreasurer’s office inquired about how the debt forgiveness would affect the CRC’s overall debt. Meyer responded that it’s not the clerk-treasurer’s responsibility to conduct fiscal planning, but that she would be happy to answer any questions or provide the documents when they are available. “Again, fiscal planning is the responsibility of the commission and CRC staff will file closing statements once received from the recorder’s office,” Meyer responded in an e-mail.

Starting Nov. 21, several businesses will participate in “Festive Fridays,” an event where special deals and discounts will be available along with seasonal entertainment such as music and

giveaways. David Maxwell and Stephen Hannah, of The Olive Mill, came up with the idea. “People are going out to eat and they are going to come to this area,” Maxwell said. “So make it an evening and enjoy some shopping.” The Olive Mill will be extending its hours to 8 p.m. on Fridays during the holidays and they are recruiting other businesses to join them.

Referee advocates for AEDs before Nov. 27 race

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Dr. Joe Calderazzo recalls feeling a little out of sorts during the ride from Washington, Ind., to Carmel a year ago. He shook it off, he had a game to do. As the referee of his football crew cover story got to the field, Calderazzo took note of the beautiful field and the impending semistate high school football game between two strong Class 6A teams in Carmel and Penn. Calderazzo told his long-time friend and crew member Wayne Patterson: “‘Big brother, if I died on this field tonight I’d probably be a very happy man.’ He got this intensely fearful look on his face and he went and just made sure there was someone there from the ambulance crew.” Good thing Carmel High School personnel were well prepared because as Calderazzo was making his way downfield after a big Carmel gain in the second quarter, he collapsed after signaling first down. The Carmel training staff had an automated external defibrillator on site and quickly came to Calderazzo’s aid. When Calderazzo awoke, he saw a bright light. Fortunately he soon realized it was just the lights from Carmel’s stadium. His initial reaction was he had to get up, he had a game to finish. He then felt his ribs hurt and knew what had happened. The AED electrode pads are attached to the chest and used to apply jolts. Calderazzo needed two jolts from the AED because he had gone into cardiac arrest due to arrhythmia. As a peditrician, Calderazzo has taught others how to use the AED. “As I was coming off the field, I figured the crowd might acknowledge me since I almost died out there but it was a lot louder than I thought,” he said. “When I waved, it was thunderous. I’ll never get an applause like that again. I was very humbled by the fact that these good people were standing and praying that someone they never knew would make it.” Calderazzo, now 63, was rushed to the St.Vincent Heart Center of Indiana. “I remember thinking I wasn’t meant to die because there are too many good things around me,” Calderazzo said. “I’m in the heart capital of Indiana. I got all the cardiologists and heart surgeons available to me. “The good Lord couldn’t have taken me by the hand any better.” Indiana High School Athletic Association com-

bolt for the heart run set On Thanksgiving Day, the Bolt for the Heart Run will start at 9 a.m. at the Center Green in Carmel. The 5K walk/run is to benefit HeartReach Carmel for placement of AEDs in an effort to save people who suffer sudden cardiac arrest. The cost to register is $35 by 11:59 p.m. on Nov. 25. Those signing up four runners, get the fifth registered for free. Children under 5 and 75 and older are admitted free but must register online. According to organizers, registrations are up 100 percent over last year and they are hoping to place 30 to 50 AEDs in Central Indiana using 100 percent of the race proceeds. Calderazzo said he plans to be there to lend his support and wants to walk the course. The event organizers gave Calderazzo an AED (worth $2,400) to present to Washington High School in his name.

missioner Bobby Cox left the game he was attending and arrived at the hospital that night to see Calderazzo. “He was there because he cared,” said Calderazzo, who had a quadruple bypass surgery the next day. Calderazzo has since become friends with Carmel athletic director Jim Inskeep, who he credits for the school’s great preparation. Inskeep said less than 10 seconds after Calderazzo hit the turf, he was surrounded by the

training staff. Inskeep said one AED is on sidelines during the game. “You do a lot of planning and you hope it works,” Inskeep said. “There’s that human element involved and you never know until it happens. We have a lot more home personnel at a football game than at a home freshman softball.” Inskeep said one AED stays in the varsity gym at all times. Inskeep said they make a concerted effort to make sure the AEDs are still working because

batteries can go bad at some point. Calderazzo had moments of depression last winter when he couldn’t referee basketball as he recuperated. But he has returned to the football field to referee this fall. He has fared well except for breaking three ribs when he got run over by a player in late October. Cox said the key is awareness and making sure the equipment is where it belongs and individuals that know how to use it. “Be aware of your surroundings and have a plan,” Cox said. “We’ve been preaching that for many years. We’re fortunate that Joe is still with us. It proves that when you do have a plan, good things happen. We don’t know when this next incident is going to occur. We want to make sure every school, every community, every venue is ready and equipped to do what it has to do. “They key is make sure that it works, makes sure it’s accessible and make sure people know how to operate.” Calderazzo was an umpire for the state finals in baseball in 2004. His best moment was being a referee with his crew at the 2008 Class 2A state football championship game at Lucas Oil Stadium. “That was my shining star,” Calderazzo said. “That to me was everything. Hopefully we’ll get to go to another one.”

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Hear us now, believe us later

Random thoughts while anticipating the full-fledged kickoff of the holiday season, even though it has been under celebration in certain mass retailers since, oh, about Aug. 17: • We were taken to task last week for our column of two weeks ago about Hillary Rodham Clinton. Once more, we have been accused of attacking only the Democratic Party. We’re told we never take umbrage with what the Republicans do – and nothing could be more distant from the truth. You’re staring at the words of two fiercely independent voters and we will repeat once more, with the same conviction, this: Our nation deserves to have a viable third party. The two existing parties have shown often enough they can screw up a two-car funeral. Questions? • One of us was flying back to Indianapolis from points west late last week, when the plane was forced to return to the gate because a passenger began experiencing a nosebleed. No one wanted to say it, but many were thinking, Is this Ebola? An ambulance met the plane at the gate, the passenger was checked, treated, cleared and permitted to re-board the aircraft. While the delay was somewhat troubling, coming at the end of a long day, the abundance of caution deployed by the carrier and the medical personnel not only was prudent, but it also was fairly comforting. Such are the times in which we’re living these days. • And about the coming holidays, we’re fairly energized around here for the delivery of our Gifts 2014 special section, which will be included in the Nov. 25 edition of Current. This year, we’re focusing on “Hoosier Holidays,” which means gift items will have had to be designed, manufactured or otherwise created in Indiana. Overall, we hope you’ll find the information a meaningful and useful way to navigate the season. And, no, we’re not going to tell you to avoid holiday debt by cutting up your credit cards or sticking to a budget; we’ll leave that to other media sources.

Agri-culture

Commentary by Terry Anker

At a recent dinner, I was introduced to the speakers’ podium with a reference to my rural roots. “Believe it or not,” it was declared with a grin, “Terry grew up farming.” Raised in unincorporated Indiana, somewhere between Delphi in Carroll County and Monticello in White County, my earliest memories are of chasing my granddad around to “help” with chores. Ultimately, our family owned a fertilizer and seed distribution company, which meant long days (and often nights) of driving nurse trucks and delivering anhydrous ammonia to waiting tractors. Yet, Mom and Dad always focused on keeping me and my sister in the classroom. It wasn’t until years later that I began to realize how little they’d expected of me – and how much of the burden that they’d carried, especially in the spring and fall. Dad would arrive home well after dinner. Mom would have me fed and finishing my homework. In the hardest times, we’d meet Dad for supper in the field on a pickup truck’s

tailgate. Mom worked a full-time job in town and still managed to keep everything running. Winters were slower. School activities and the occasional fishing or hunting trip filled the calendar. This all seemed very natural to me. It was our culture. Our agri-culture. Everybody worked. Everybody worked hard. Sure, we had fun; but when the skies were dry and the season was in, we stayed in the fields – it might rain tomorrow. The farms once known to populate most of our fair state have faded into our collective memory. Large, capital-intensive operations continue to consolidate production. We may be better off for it. But what of our culture? Even as urbanization replaces traditional America, what can we expect? For me, I value our agri-culture and hope that it continues to have a place in the new order.

Q U O T E   O F  T H E   W E E K People who enjoy meetings should not be in charge of anything. – Thomas Sowell

You know you’re in a bad way when you find yourself huddled in the garage, tears and mascara streaming down your face, shoving empty Capri Suns, a used coffee filter and two wet paper towels back into a ripped-open trash bag and cussing the living daylights out of your stupid Labrador. Flashback to a couple of Sundays ago, and that was me. Obviously not the pillar of graceful beauty I’d been going for. How did I get there? Read on, my friends. You may recall that my life has been a bit stressful of late. Work, parenting, hormones . . . an evil trifecta hell-bent on sending me into a mild middle-age funk. I thought I’d managed the worst of it, but the universe had a few more curveballs to throw in my direction, starting with a sudden week-long business trip for my husband Doo that began the same day as my first-ever speech team coaching gig. Ten hours at a local high school on a Saturday plus my unnerving experience driving a mini-bus to and from said high school already had me a bit grumpy when I arrived home that evening to begin my term as a single mom. But when I saw the state of the house, I really lost it. I screamed at kids and threw dishes and then stormed outside to begin disassembling our blown-over, left-to-die Halloween decorations just so I could have a moment alone. Luckily for all involved, I went to bed soon thereafter before I could do any real damage. The next morning, I felt only slightly better, as nightmares of a zombie apocalypse robbed me of blissful sleep. Then another curveball. My youngest learned that her good friend’s father had passed away the day before. She held it together for a while, but on the way to Sunday school, finally broke down. Her comment, “I can’t imagine not having my daddy,” broke my heart. As guilt from the previous night’s mommy rampage settled in, so did the awareness of how petty my issues have been. I was a horrible person for complaining about a dirty kitchen and bratty children and an absentee spouse (even though he was probably enjoying a nice steak dinner before heading off to his clean, quiet hotel room). So when I pulled back into the garage and saw trash strewn across the floor, well, there you have it. The build-up of fatigue, bitterness and sadness over the last day and a half erupted into a geyser of sobs and F-bombs. Not my finest moment. I’m pleased to report, however, that I’m mostly back to normal, undoubtedly just in time for another curveball. I’ll keep you posted! Peace out.

READERS’ VIEWS Turning off Fox? Editor, Reading Mike’s letter in the Current in Carmel of Nov. 1, my heart ached for poor Mike, who requested that you drop Fox News and (Russ) Limbaugh in favor of CNN, just for the sake of your reader(s). I wondered, if I moved to New York City and received a free weekly copy of the New York Times, would I have the courage to write to their editors and request that they turn off MSNBC and try Fox News and Limbaugh? Would I be audacious enough to contend that my thinking was

in line with (or should take precedence over) the thinking of their “readers”? Much of Current in Carmel’s content is straight news, pure fact. Much (though certainly not all) of their commentary is slanted toward the conservative. Is there any way you could send Mike his free Current, but remove all commentary that is not liberal? Perhaps hire a part-time fact remover (Mike might be willing to help with the cost)? If not, I fear for poor Mike’s sanity. Linda Polizotto, Carmel

Bennett brings energy and ‘heart’ to Palladium

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

At 88, Tony Bennett recently became the oldest performer to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with his album with Lady Gaga. Bennett broke his previous age record of 85, set when concert “Duets II” made No. 1 in 2011. “I don’t view it as reinventing myself as I am singing the songs that I have made the cornerstone of my recording career, but what thrills me about working with these younger artists is it exposes their audience to the Great American Songbook so that this music continues to be explored and discovered,” Bennett said. “Particularly with my new album with Lady Gaga — as she is a fantastic jazz singer — so I know that all her millions of fans will now listen to how great she sounds and start appreciating jazz music and popular standards.” Bennett will perform at the Palladium in Carmel at 8 p.m. on Nov. 21 with his daughter Antonia. Bennett answered some questions from Current about his legendary career. Thirty years ago, did you think you would still be doing live shows today and how have you kept so active? Performing in front of a live audience has

always been the biggest thrill for me because it’s spontaneous and it’s the most direct communication you can have as a musical performer. So I think the fact that I have always been touring throughout my career has been a key part to my longevity. It’s a bit easier now with one show a night than when I started out at the Paramount Theatre and we did seven shows a day, but I still love it. I like to make people happy and I hope when they leave the theater they have forgotten some of their own problems and have just enjoyed themselves. You’ve performed with the greatest of the greats, which one stands out the most for you? That is very tough as I toured for two years with Lena Horne, but I have to say singing and knowing Judy Garland has been a treasured part of my career. She was a complete original and an authentic artist of the highest measure and a dear friend. You’ve said you never sing “I Left my Heart in San Francisco” the same way. How hard is to keep challenging yourself that way? As an entertainer, it is my responsibility to ensure that the audience enjoys themselves, so I want to perform the songs that I know the

audience has come to hear me sing so it’s not hard at all. I tour with a magnificent jazz quartet and I have always gravitated to performing with jazz artists because they are master musicians which enables them to be spontaneous. We can decide to change the tempo of a song 10 seconds before we perform it on stage, depending on the pacing of the show and if we need to do an up-tempo or move to a ballad. So every show is different from one night to another because every audience is different and they are as much a part of the performance as we are. Which Great American Songbook performer do you most admire and why? I really admire them all because they are keeping the finest popular music ever written alive by choosing to perform and record these songs. There was a golden age of songwriting in America in the ‘20s, ‘30s and ‘40s when you had (George) Gershwin, Duke Ellington, Jerome Kern, Irving Berlin, just a once-in-a-lifetime moment when these master craftsmen were writing songs. And I believe these songs will ultimately become America’s classical music. To read more on Bennett, visit www.currentnightandday.com.

‘Pete ‘n’ Keely’ a must for this month Commentary by Jillian Albrecht Seasonal affective disorder starts to affect all of us this time of year. To combat our SAD symptoms, we can use special theater lights, take vitamin D or move to a tropical island. However, I think it’s at least worth a try to take in a fabulous musical comedy before I start shopping for Bermuda shorts. I’ll have the opportunity to do just that this month in The Studio Theater at The Center of the Performing Arts when “Pete ‘n’ Keely” opens. The show centers on Pete and Keely reuniting for a television special that’s meant to capitalize on their former success as a singing duo. The only possible issue. The two haven’t said a word to each other since their explosive break-up five years ago. Will they fall in love all over again or will they end up on tabloid covers in handcuffs?

Either way, the show must go on, and you’ll have to come to the show to see how it all works out. The production is brought to us by Actors Theatre of Indiana and is underwritten by Bose McKinney & Evans, LLP. Judy Fitzgerald, who also stars as ATI co-founder and associate artistic director, and Michael Ehlers will play the leads in this variety-show-inspired musical. The show runs until Nov. 23. Tickets are available through the website: actorstheatreofindiana.org or by phone at 843-3800. In addition to supporting the arts, come support your mood. “It’s hysterical! The music is fantastic. I hate to keep saying it, but it’s just fun!” Fitzgerald said. If you remember loving Lucy and Desi, Sonny and Cher or “The Carol Burnett Show,” you’ll be in for a nostalgic treat. If not, you can fall in love with the music, the jokes and the camaraderie of that era in entertainment for the first time.

The adventures of being a guest in the presidential box Commentary by Amy Pauszek

On Nov. 7 I was invited to be the Social Seat Guest in The Presidential Box at the beautiful Carmel Palladium. Who knew symphony it would turn out to be the chance of a lifetime to see The Moscow State Symphony Orchestra AND Violin virtuoso Nadja Salerno-Sonnenburg under the direction of Conductor Pavor Kogan? The night was amazing, I sat mesmerized as the orchestra and special guests captured the audience’s heart and soul with the sounds of Tchaikovsky and Bruch. My task was simple, to tweet about the live concert. However, the magical sounds and visuals of plucking violin strings, brass horns and the clash of the symbols entranced me. I realized that the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra is one of the five oldest concert orchestras in Russia and it was playing live right there in Carmel. Pavor Kogan stood tall and animated as he commanded the concert and Nadja was purely electrifying as she played flawlessly. Her energy was contagious. The acoustics were mind blowing and at times — so intense that you could of heard a pin drop during the short dramatic pauses. In the end, my Social Seat Guest Mission became easier as the night went on and my tweets flowed freely to the riveting music that

Madrigal Feast: a must

By Steven Aldrich • news@currentincarmel.com For the past five years, Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in Carmel has been hosting a Madrigal Feast to raise proceeds theater for various charities, as well as feed and entertain hundreds of people. In the past years, proceeds have gone to various special needs schools and cancer research programs, including Voices of Hope. The event is put on by the church’s choir, which following this year’s feast on Dec. 6, will determine the charity that the proceeds will benefit. “The feast is great,” said Bill Christoff, director of the church choir and the event. “The feast has grown tremendously each year they have done it.” During the feast, the choir will perform an original medieval play, written by choir member Kathie Samuelson. In addition, the feast will also consist of a four-course meal prepared by some of the finest chefs in all the land, as well as wine and coffee proceeding the dinner. The Madrigal Feast has been a great way to bring people together to enjoy an evening of medieval fun and help the needy. It is a fantastic time that can be enjoyed by the whole family.

Rock Your Holidays With Confidence. Be Thinner Before New Year’s! Tapenade can be made with walnuts, peppers and raisins to make this a perfect pairing for holiday gatherings. (Photo by Ceci Martinez)

A perfect Thanksgiving appetizer

Thanksgiving is a great opportunity to prepare dishes that you normally wouldn’t prepare. Surprise your guests with this fantastico appetizer, a Peruvian tapenade. Tapenade is a French-born spread that consists of pureed olive. It is generally savored on slices of toasted baguettes or crackers and is a terrific spread for sandwiches. This divine and easy recipe has a Latin twist! It has walnuts, red bell pepper and raisins to give it a bit of sweetness. I feel flattered that I am often asked for this recipe wherever I bring it, so here it is. Enjoy it with friends and family as you gather for the Thanksgiving holiday. Note: • This tapenade is wonderful when combined with goat cheese. • It also makes great festive homemade gifts that everyone will enjoy receiving! PERUVIAN TAPENADE Prep: 15 minutes / Makes about 1 3/4 cups tapenade Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups pitted Kalamata olives, 2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained, 2 anchovy fillets, 1 garlic, roasted, 1/4 cup good quality olive oil, 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest, 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice, 1 tea-

Pulse three times, add olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, mustard, thyme, parsley and process until chunky. Tapenade should not be entirely smooth, should have some texture to it. Transfer the tapenade to a bowl and add chopped walnuts, red bell pepper, raisins and ground pepper and mix well. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, then bring to room temperature before using.

We’re joking of course. To bow down to the TV gods, many college and pro football programs start at noon or one depending on the time zone. So the question is, “What do I serve at a morning tailgate?” The answer is easy. Serve the same breakfast meal that you would serve to friends when you are entertaining for breakfast at home. We serve eggs to order, sausage, English muffins, coffee and Bloody Marys. Sometimes we serve a Mimosa in warm weather. So you ask us, “How does one prepare all that food, just like they do in their kitchen?” It’s simple if you use the right equipment. We use a portable range that has an oven and two burners and a coffee maker, both powered by those small propane canisters. We toast muffins, flour tortillas, or bake biscuits in the oven and prepare the sausage and eggs in frying pans on the burners. Look at (photo one) for this propane tailgate appliance. For coffee brewing we use a tailgate propane coffee maker (photo two). We use these items regularly and they have lasted for years. They are made by Coleman.

Breakfast Burrito Ingredients • 1 package (16 ounces) Johnsonville® Fresh Chorizo Ground Sausage • 8 eggs, beaten (egg beaters can be added/substituted to the mixture to reduce cholesterol) • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese • 4 whole wheat tortillas (8 inches), warmed • Salsa • Sour Cream Preparation: In a nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until meat is no longer pink; drain. Pour eggs into the skillet and cook them as you would for scrambled eggs at home. Sprinkle with cheese. Spoon filling evenly onto tortillas (heated over your burner), roll as desired. Serve with salsa and sour cream.

I recently realized that, beside the possibility of snow, I love the month of November! My youngest daughter has fitness a birthday which makes it extra special, but it is also the month of what I call “Turkey Day.” I love getting together with family or friends, I love pitching in and cooking the Thanksgiving feast, I love watching football, love playing games with my kids and just enjoying a day off. What are your plans for turkey day? Is your health part of the game plan? A few years back, some of my family members started participating in the Drumstick Dash, a walk/run in the Broad Ripple area that supports Wheeler Mission Ministries. It has been a great way to start the day, get some activity before our family feast and help others out in the process. If you want something closer to home in Fishers, maybe the YMCA Wishbone 5k, which supports the YMCA Annual Campaign, is a good fit for your family. Close to Carmel, try The Bolt for the Heart 5K Run which helps support HeartReach Carmel in providing lifesaving automated external defibrillators in central Indiana. If signing up for a walk/run isn’t your cup of tea, there are lots of other ways to benefit

GIVING BACK IS PART

your health on a day that is typically thought of as “eat until you can’t eat anymore.” By the way, I don’t recommend this. Enjoy what you are eating, just don’t go overboard, it never feels good. Initiate a family walk or bike ride around the neighborhood. Taking a walk after your Thanksgiving feast is a great way to spend time with family before you have dessert. Even if the weather is a bit chilly, you can break out the corn hole set or Frisbee for some backyard fun. Play touch football while the turkey is cooking. Hide mini-pumpkins/ gourds and have the kids hunt for them. Maybe fitness for the brain is more your family’s speed, so have a game tournament, cards, checkers, maybe even chess. What about your heart and soul health? Sign up to work at a soup kitchen for a couple hours. Maybe ask all your family and friends coming to dinner to bring items to donate to a food pantry or shelter. On this “Turkey Day,” be thankful and do something that benefits your health, your family’s health and maybe even others. Kathleen M.

Entertainer’s Secret celebrates 30 years

By Zach Manges • news@currentincarmel.com

This year Carmel-based KLI Corp and its famous throat spray Entertainer’s Secret are celebrating 30 years of keepanniversary ing singers and orators alike crisp and clear. Originally going by the name Moi-Stir 10, the product resulted from a joint effort in 1984 between KLI Corp of Carmel and Nashville otolaryngologist Dr. Richard Quisling. Many patients of the ear-nose-throat specialist were performers who had lost their voices while in town to record. A need was presented for a moisturizer lubricant without anesthetic or alcohol, and what would eventually be known as Entertainer’s Secret was the answer. Of course, the utility of the venerable spray extends beyond rock stars. “It’s designed for anyone with voice problems,” KLI Corp president Gordon Schmitz said. “While it’s kind of heady to talk in terms of celebrities, there are many more who just get hoarse- the preachers, the teachers, and all of us who talk. Far more customers have need for the product in regular jobs.” A deceptively small operation, KLI Corp primarily distributes the tuxedo-clad bottle to the shelves of music stores and pharmacies, though it can also be acquired online. It has a reach

across the globe whenever its loyal patrons require, particularly for performers on the road with a sudden case of a scratchy larynx, but KLI hopes its neighbors at home will think of them as well. “Even though our product name is Entertainer’s Secret, we want that secret to get out in this community,” operations manager Betty Miller said. “It’s non-medicinal, so a prescription isn’t needed. A lot of other products have numbing or drying agents, which isn’t good for people who value their voices.” That effect is appreciated by just about everyone who tries a spritz. The Piano Man himself Billy Joel is the most vocal of the company’s supporters, as he openly endorses the product during concerts and keeps a bottle handy on his keyboard. Other big-name customers have included Cyndi Lauper, Katy Perry, and Brooke Shields. “We’ve had American Idol or The Voice contestants call us because they need it overnight with their performance schedules,” Miller said. “Whether you’re a Billy Joel, a local choir member, or a third-grade teacher, we’re always delighted to be of service.”

DISPATCHES Woodall top loan originator – Residential mortgage lender Ruoff Home Mortgage announced that Brian Woodall was recognized as the overall top loan originator for the company for the month of October. The top spot overall is based on the number of closed loans during the month, as compared to their fellow peers. Woodall earned the top loan originator Woodall spot for the Carmel/Avon office in his first full month with Ruoff (in August), as well. He started in mid-July and has been in the mortgage and real estate industry since 1994.

“I am 70 years old. I have been taking medication for blood pressure and cholesterol. Needless to say, I was worried if I could start an exercise program safely. John Karesh made it a nice, gradual transition and I am surprised what I can do now. I feel better now than when I was in my 50s.” -Janice H.

So what’s the deal with ‘so?’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Hello. I’ve recently started receiving The Southside Times and love your columns. Now I have an issue I’d grammar guy like for you to address. It seems like so many people are starting a sentence with the word ‘so,’ even when it appears to be incorrect (not to mention extremely annoying). Would you please check the rules and let people know what they are? I know it’s the latest trend, but the sooner it runs its course, the better. Thanks and keep up the good work. We need more people like you.” – Marlena Linne Answer: Is that what the kids are doing these days? I’ve had my head buried in Céline for the last few weeks, though no apologies there. Maybe I’m not as cutting edge as I used to be. At the heart of the matter here is whether it’s acceptable to begin a sentence with a conjunction – even a coordinating conjunction like “and,” “but” or “so.” And, as we’ve discussed previously, it is. Of course, as the Oxford Dictionaries say in their defense of leading with conjunctions, “it’s best not to overdo it.” Fortunately we only have to hop over to Cambridge (Dictionaries) for a concise list of just when it’s acceptable to start a sentence with “so.” For brevity’s sake I won’t include all of them, but here are a few: • To connect a sentence with something that

has been said or happened previously. (“So as I’ve written before…”) • To refer to a discovery that you have just made. (“So you really can swim right after lunch!”) • To make certain you or someone else understand something correctly. (“So a conjunction connects two ideas, right?”) • To introduce a subject of conversation that is of present interest, especially when asking a question. (“So, what are the Colts’ odds of winning the Super Bowl this year?”) • To belittle a point under discussion (“So what?”) So, what’s the point, Mr. Grammar Guy? Beginning a sentence with any conjunction, “so” or otherwise, should be done sparingly and to serve a particular purpose like adding emphasis, controlling the pacing of a sentence and, most importantly – perhaps necessarily, even – establishing a connection to a previous idea or statement. After all, a conjunction must still serve its proper function. (If you’re still not clear what that is, I believe there may be an educational tune floating around there somewhere to help you out. And it’s catchy, to boot!) Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing. To ask Jordan a grammar question, write him at rjfische@gmail.com.

Hippos: The City on a Hill

Commentary by Don Knebel

Since 1630, when Puritan leader John Winthrop addressed his followers onboard the ship Arbella, politicians have likened the Ameritravel can experience to the shining “city on a hill” described by Jesus in his Sermon on the Mount. They might have opted for a different metaphor if they had known that Jesus was referring to the glistening buildings of a thoroughly pagan city. Jesus delivered his famous sermon from the northwestern shore of the Sea of Galilee, near his base in Capernaum. At the time, Hippos was a bustling city atop a flat hill rising more than 1,000 feet above the water on the eastern shore of the lake, near today’s Kibbutz Ein Gev. In making his points, Jesus referred to salt and lamps, items his followers encountered every day. Most scholars believe Jesus had Hippos in mind when he told his listeners that “a city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden” because it was the only hilltop city they had seen. Hippos was founded by the Greeks in about 200 B.C., its name reflecting the hill’s claimed resemblance to a horse. After a period under control of the Jewish Hasmoneans, in 63 B.C. the city

came under the rule of the Romans, who made it one of the 10 semi-autonomous Greco-Roman cities of the Decapolis. Recent excavations have revealed that life in first-century Hippos was much different from that in the Jewish fishing villages where Jesus taught. Archaeologists have uncovered a column-lined Roman main street running the 500-meter length of the hilltop, flanked by theaters, nude bath houses, temples to Zeus and Aphrodite, and a fountain dedicated to sensuous water nymphs, all gleaming in the afternoon sun when Jesus and his followers gazed across the lake. A narrow path leads to the ruins of Hippos, with signs warning: “Mines on both sides of the trail; walk only on the marked path.” At the top of the hill are remains of several Byzantine-era churches, destroyed by an earthquake in 749 A.D. Hundreds of years after the Sermon on the Mount, Christian lights finally shone from the famous city on a hill.

Greetings from the High Point Furniture Market Commentary by Vicky Earley It is the debutante ball for home furnishings. It is where interior design trends are identified and it is where styles in home outdoors décor are launched. It is the High Point Furniture Market in North Carolina. The largest trade show in the industry welcomes buyers, wholesalers and manufacturers every six months. One hundred and eighty buildings and almost 12 million square feet of exhibit space come to life with the industry trends. The fall 2014 show did not disappoint. The previous focus on clean, modern lines made way for curvier pieces, fanciful designs and textures beyond the linen that has reigned for the past three years. Interior design aficionados will recognize the name Makenzie-Childs. This fanciful line of handpainted home décor, long absent from the High Point show, was a featured vendor bringing its signature style of color and pattern to the décor universe. Animal décor items were abundant. I saw gilded gold turtle shells, carved owls and ceramic whippets. Dogs, horses and pheasants were plentiful in the art department. Agate décor will be a second to animal motif. These intriguing gems were found in lamps, decorative boxes, book ends, art and just standing alone. It is safe to say that gray will continue to be the dominant “neutral,” with ivory running a

Polar Vortex, two of my least favorite words Commentary by Randy Sorrell Amazingly, the 2013-14 prolonged winter did not cause the horrific plant loss and patio issues we anticipated. outdoors But it did show itself in other delightful ways. A few of our ceramic pots disintegrated and my water spigot exploded. This year, I am determined to implement the “winter to-do” list that follows, starting with disconnecting the garden hose from the spigot and storing ceramic pots in the garage. HIGH Start high and complete a visual inspection searching for curled or missing roof shingles and gutters that are hanging, disconnected or overflowing with leaves that result in rain spilling over the edges. All are bad. Inspect for properly sealed windows, secured screens and evidence of critter damage to wood surfaces. LOW Ground level check list: 1. Disconnect the garden hose from the spigot and turn off inside if available. 2. Breakable pots inside (synthetics can remain outside). 3. Store patio furniture and cushions inside or carefully cover with a tarp (looks tacky, but works) or with ap-

propriate covers. It has caused our five-year-old patio furniture to still look predominantly new. 4. Store outdoor rugs to prolong their life. 5. Inspect landscape lighting fixtures and bulbs. Change as necessary along with adjusting the timer. Ours remain on all night for safety and ambiance. 6. Install weather strip at exterior doors and garage door as necessary. 7. Clean plant beds are happy beds, same with the lawn. Do a final leaf and debris removal to avoid future fungus issues. 8. Check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, replace furnace filters after a professional furnace inspection. 9. Stock up on ice melt, a new snow shovel and window scrapers. 10. Auto emergency kit in place? Escape the Polar Vortex-induced doldrums by practicing gratitude, joy, hope, faith and family.
