Darrin Marion, the owner of Darrin’s Coffee Co. in Zionsville, was arrested last week following an investigation by Secretary of State Connie Lawcrime son’s prosecution assistance unit. Marion allegedly sold an unlicensed investment in a real estate scam. In a press release to Current in Zionsville, Lawson states: “Real estate schemes are some of the most common forms of investment fraud that come across my desk. I hope this case serves as a reminder to check with my office to ensure the investment is registered before investing. Marion opened his own coffee shop and coffee roasting company in 2013. According to the investigation documents, the secretary of state’s office began investigating Marion after a complaint was filed. He allegedly sold his father’s college roommate in investment opportunity in a Texas real estate development project that, he said, would bring significant revenue to anyone who made an investment. Marion allegedly told investors that any principle invested would be safe from loss. However, after investors requested documentation of the investment, Marion allegedly stopped returning phone calls and could not be found. Upon receiving a complaint from one of these investors, the secretary of state’s office found that Marion was previously registered as a securities professional, but his registration expired in 2007 as a result of criminal acts involving the use of a client’s identity. In January 2008, the secretary of state’s office permanently banned Marion from the securities industry. “Investors should always check with the secretary of state’s office to make sure the investment advisor and the product are licensed before investing,” said In-

diana Securities Commissioner Carol Mihalik. “This case is the perfect example of how a simple background check could save your precious investment dollars.” Since Marion’s arrest, the coffee shop has remained open on Main Street. Last week, a representative for Darrins Coffee Co. told Current in Zionsville that the incident with real estate happened more than eight years ago and that Marion would be returning to work this week. “This was a personal matter that happened more than eight years ago and has nothing to do with the business,” the clerk said. The store clerk said that the coffee shop will stay open, and will continue hosting poetry readings and live music in the basement. “Mondays we are closed for roasting, but other than that it’s business as usual,” she said. This is still an ongoing investigation. Anyone who invested with Darrin Marion should contact the secretary of state’s office at 317-232-6681.

Town Hall talks firearms

KNOWS ZIONSVILLE!

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com Pop, bang, pow—the sound of firearms in rural Zionsville is making some people explode. “This discussion is more government driven by noise than safety,” said Zionsville Town Councilwoman Susana Suarez. According to Zionsville Town Councilman and Zionsville Safety Board member Steve Mundy, the safety board is in talk about expanding its role to include residents’ complaints of firearms. Mundy said the issue has arisen because the town is searching for ways to deal with citizen complaints and possible noise or safety violations. He said that there are two options the town can make: create a specific firearms board to handle the complaints, or keep these complaints within the safety board’s responsibility. In some ways, the gunfire debate began more than two years ago when a horse, Soloman, was shot while grazing in the pasture of Zionsville resident Sally Booth at 2775 S. and 875 E. Booth believed the bullet strayed from the property of Chris Brooke. “The idea of gunfire potentially being unsafe really came from the horse issue,” Mundy said. “Because it could have been a human or a house that bullet hit.” At the April 7, council meeting, councilwoman Candace Ulmer, who lives on County Road 950 East, said that she has noticed increased gunfire

and “explosions” within the past year. “A year ago it got worse,” Ulmer said. “And it’s not a regular shotgun fire.” Ulmer said she understands that it is everyone’s right to own and operate a licensed firearm, but that the sounds of explosions could be a major safety concern. Resident Jim Sanford, who lives near Ulmer, asked the council to define what “occasional recreational shooting” with regard to the rapid gunfire near his home. “There’s a safety problem,” Sanford said. “And there is no clarification.” The safety board is expected to form a separate firearms committee to handle these safety concerns, although Mundy said there still are two board members who would prefer to keep the issue with the safety board. The next safety board meeting will be at 9 a.m., April 28. For updates on this and other town matters, visit www.currentzionsville.com.

Fresh produce, with a slice of Zionsville tradition; the Zionsville Farmers’ Market, known in some circles as simply The Market, is returning Saturday, May 17 for brick street its spring and summer session. Saturday mornings in Zionsville at the farmers’ market give homemakers and chefs alike the chance to try locally grown produce and prepared foods. “Almost all of our favorite vendors are returning this season, but we are happy to introduce a few new faces,” said market committeewoman, Jennifer Bucher. Bucher said her committee is working closely with the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce to promote the farmers’ market and let people know just how special shopping downtown can be. “We’ve been working closely with [them] this year to see how we can partner with the village business district and offer more for the Saturday morning crowd,” she said. “And our usual goal is to provide great local food for the residents of Zionsville and to have fun doing it.” This year the farmers’ market will be orchestrated by a Northenscold new market master: Kirsten Northenscold.

Bucher said the group is excited to work with Northenscold, but would still love to have more volunteers on board.

ReStyled coming to Main Street By Sophie Pappas and Robert Herrington ReStyled of Carmel will be opening a second location on Zionsville’s Main Street. The Carmel business coming soon signed a lease for the vacant corner location at Oak and Main streets. It is expected to be open for business on or before May 1. The building, owned by a corporation titled 98 S. Main St. LLC, housed Kristeens Jewelers until early this year. Kristeens owner Kelly Martin decided to discontinue her jewelry business in the store and focus on online sales only. “We are excited to have them join Main Street,” said Valerie Swack, co-owner of 98 S. Main LLC. “They have a huge following and will really compliment the existing merchants.” ReStyled is known for selling refurbished furniture and home items. They also carry an exclusive line of Annie Sloan products, such as chalk paint and soft wax, used to give furniture an antiqued appearance. ReStyled is owned and operated by the mother-and-daughter-in-law team of Connie Odekirk and Sasha Hostettler. The two have been in business together for more than five years. Hostettler said she came up with the idea for ReStyled after attending an estate sale with her husband. “I fell in love with old interesting pieces of furniture you don’t see in stores anymore,” she said. “We came home with two truckloads of furniture.” Using Odekirk’s background as an interior designer, the two now restore and transform previously loved items into beautiful, versatile furniture and accessories for the home and garden. “We live in a throw-away society. We wanted to give beautiful pieces another chance at life,” said Hostettler. “Through processes such as painting, distressing and construction, we create extraordinary from the ordinary.”

Wellbrooke of Westfield made us a promise.

And, they’ve kept their word.

How I evicted a raccoon

Commentary by Ward Degler

Helping Mom get the long-term care she needed has been one of the most difficult things we’ve faced. We considered every option. And, then one day we visited Wellbrooke of Westfield.

During a recent warm spell, I walked around the yard making a list of things to do when spring arrived. I glanced up at plain talk the roof just in time to see a furry head emerge from inside the house. A raccoon. The little bandit had ripped away the shingles and chewed his way into the ceiling. I could tell by his attitude that he had moved in and was ready to set up housekeeping. I had previous experience with raccoons. None of it good. Let’s just say feeding your cat outdoors is not a good idea. When raccoons come to your house, they come with lofty expectations of being fed and housed. In a panic, I Googled “Raccoons”. I learned that ammonia on a rag will drive them out. I soaked paper towels with the stuff and shoved them into the opening. My eyes watered for hours. I could only hope the raccoon suffered equally and packed his bags. The next step: Close up the hole. I knew if I

covered it with shingles, the varmint would be back and rip them away again. Instead, I cut a piece of sheet metal, coated it with roofing cement and nailed it snugly in place. Job done. Or, so I thought. That night we were serenaded by a frantic raccoon running from one end of the ceiling to the other trying to find a way out. I had trapped him inside. Morning brought with it what I can only describe as a “kill-or-be-killed” resolve toward our uninvited guest. I set up the stepladder outside and removed one of the vents in the soffit. Hours later, I saw evidence that he had left. I replaced the vent and held my breath. It’s been four uneventful days and nights now. Maybe in another week I’ll breathe again.

Blues on the Bricks Returns

By Kathi Reichert • news@currentzionsville.com The popular Blues on the Bricks concert series returns to Zionsville for its second year, but under a new name: Legion of music Blues. This series is the brainchild of resident Tim McLaughlin, who has always had a passion for live music and has seen a need for it in Zionsville since he moved to town in 2000. “I was walking around town asking different people ‘Where is live music in Zionsville?’ And there just wasn’t any,” said McLaughlin, who has promoted successful concerts in other Indianapolis neighborhoods. “But you don’t need a concert venue. You just need a place who will turn on the lights.” McLaughlin contacted Le Dolce Vita (formerly Eagle Creek Coffee Co.) last year to inquire about hosting Blues on the Bricks. A successful partnership was born. He arranges the bands and the sponsorship, while Le Dolce Vita supplies the venue and the food - a win-win for both. In 2013, McLaughlin organized four concerts at the venue to a full house every night. They had over 100 people at the first show held during a citywide power outage. “So many people walk to the show. The first show we had a busload of people come down from Lafayette, because the opening act was from Lafayette. They rented an RV and they brought about 20 people,” said McLaughlin.

However, now that Le Dolce Vita is no longer on Main Street, the Blues on the Bricks has been renamed the Legion of Blues, and will be at the American Legion of Zionsville. The first concert of 2014 kicks off from 8 to 11 p.m., April 26. It will feature local band Dicky James and the Power Trio, as well as guitarist Brian Keith Wallen. Subsequent concerts will be held the last Saturday in April, July and October. McLaughlin said they have enough interest from bands to book out through 2017.

ue was a little disheartened by her unsuccessful attempt to sell her Austin Oaks home in the fall. When Jennifer took over the listing in January, it was clear there was little to improve on the beautiful house, so she decided that Sue needed a different approach to the home’s marketing. And the first change she implemented was the photography.

Should Zionsville have a dog park? By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com

park, he said that he must remain unbiased when it comes to moving forward on the project. “It’s really about what the board decides,” he said. Dickey said that there are more than 4 acres set aside for a dog park at Heritage Trail Park, including the potential for needed irrigation of the dog park grass. “What’s typical is that you use half of the land for one season, and the other half of the land the next season,” he said. This helps keep the grass from dying when exposed to canine excrement. The parks department is expected to go before the town council in July to discuss budgetary matters for the next year. By then, Zionsville residents would need to make it clear that they are interested in seeing the town put in a dog park.

On a beautiful spring evening at Lions Park, families swarm the playground. The thermometer has finally hit 60 degrees, and everypark one wants to be outside. One couple plays with their small daughter, Leila, as their Australian shepherd sits nearby, strapped to a park bench. “We’d love to have a place for him to run,” Leila’s mom, Elli said. “It would be great to have a dog park in Zionsville.” At the April agenda-setting meeting for the Zionsville Town Council, councilwoman Susana Suarez said she was very much in favor of the town constructing a dog park at Heritage Trail Park at county roads 875 East and 400 South. “I’d like to see us revive the discussion [for a dog park],” Suarez said. According to Matt Dickey, Zionsville superintendent of Parks and Recreation it 400 S has been four years since the concept first was introduced.

Akard TrueValue Hardware celebrates 59 years By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com It’s your local hardware store, and so much more. Akard TrueValue Hardware, in Zionsville’s Boone Village, is at the heart of community service and small town cover story business. Started in 1955 by Jacob “JJ” Akard, the hardware store first was a spinoff of JJ’s travelling salesman days. When he decided to stay off the road and open a shop, it was Zionsville’s Main Street where he found a home for his hardware. He occupied an entire city block where Plum’s Upper Room and Darrin’s Coffee Co. now are. “My grandpa used to have an apartment where Plum’s is,” said Leigh Ann Akard, granddaughter of JJ, and present-day co-owner. In the early 1970s, Leigh Ann’s parents, Steve and Marsha Akard, moved the store its currrent location. In the 1990s, the shop expanded into a whole corner of Boone Village. Both Leigh Ann and her sister, Amanda, worked in the store during high school. Leigh Ann’s three boys have also all worked in the store during their high school years. Even now, Leigh Ann admits she never thought she would go into the hardware business herself. “But it’s very much been a family business,” she said. “And I love it.” Investing in the community If there is one thing that Akard TrueValue is known for, it is the philanthropy of its owners. Founder JJ was a permanent fixture at Zionsville events and fundraisers, with present-day shoppers still remembering all that he did. Leigh Ann, a Lions Club member and someone who is involved in just about every activity in town, said that it’s all about staying local and loving where you are. “A lot of people don’t realize that even though we are a TrueValue, we are 100 percent locally owned,” she said. “We live here and we work here. This is everything to us.” For Leigh Ann, not having to go through corporate procedures has made it easier for her to use the store as a place to help others. “We care about the community and we’re very involved in the community,” Leigh Ann said. “Even shoppers today remember my grandpa and his philanthropic heart. And now, I don’t have to think twice about doing a coat collection for kids, I can just hear about a project and put the box out front.” What big box can’t do Leigh Ann said that the family businesses in Zionsville offer more than just a “mom and pop” environment. Employees at Akard TrueValue are an intricate part of how Leigh Ann runs the family business. She makes sure that opportunities to work are

available to people who want something stable, local and safe. “Nobody wants to see their grandma or grandpa have to drive 30 minutes to go to a part-time job,” she said. “When we hire, we are looking for someone who will be here for a while. We have a lot of longevity, and we train everyone as if they were staying forever. That’s something big retailers don’t do.” Another aspect of the business it making sure items are readily available for what Zionsville residents need at the moment.

that’s it for the season, but we were able to order more after realizing that people couldn’t find them anywhere else,” she said. “We have more depth.” Akard TrueValue also carries items made in Indiana. One of the most popular products is Rickle’s Pickles, which are made in Fremont. John Stehr, a television broadcaster for WTHR Channel 13 in Indianapolis, is a frequent patron of Akard, often buying the Rickle’s Pickles. “He came in here the other day and said, ‘I never thought I’d be running to the hardware store when I ran out of pickles’,’’ Leigh Ann said. But that’s the kind of thing that has kept this small town hardware store a special place for 59 years.

Hypocrisy in the springtime

Donuts and coffee

As you may know, President Barack Obama is once again leading from behind and is reaching for the same tired arguments of the past in hopes of Democrats gaining ground in the upcoming midterm elections. His latest dime-store strategy: The pay gap between men and women. Well, according to an Associated Press story, an analysis conducted by the conservative American Enterprise Institute, found Obama’s female aides were paid 88 cents for every dollar paid to men, about $65,000 to $73,729 annually. But here’s the really wonderful display of hypocrisy: White House Press Secretary Jay Carney argued the comparison is based on aggregate wages that include the lowest salaries at the White House, adding, “which may or may not be - depending on the institution - filled by more women than men.” OK, so let’s get this straight: It’s fine for government to use this excuse, but in the private sector, something untoward is taking place. Ah, yes, there is nothing quite like liberal hypocrisy in the springtime. ••• To those who are in line with us for the annual fleecing today, misery loves company, we suppose. Before we blink, Tax Liberation Day (not a real holiday) will be somewhere around Thanksgiving. Once and for all, reduce spending, cut government bloat and let’s have some meaningful leadership! ••• See? Your voice counts. The recent decision by Buckingham Cos. to rethink its plan to develop multi-use residential and retail space in downtown’s southern corridor by purchasing land plots is proof. Public feedback caused the developer to give part of the project, or the entire initiative, a second thought. That’s appropriate. Town Manager Ed Mitro has said Buckingham needs to continue communicating with the town before it can move forward with a revised set of plans, and we quite agree. Buckingham is an accomplished enterprise, and we believe it will do right by the town. Brian Kelly, publisher, and Steve Greenberg, general manager, are co-owners of Current Publishing, LLC.

Prognostication

Commentary by Terry Anker

As much as we humans are the same (our tolerance for climate, days without water and isolation from each other fall into fairly narrow bands), we take a near excessive pride in our distinctions. Amused by this reality, one might suggest to the latest brand of hipster that the excessive goal of uniqueness only ensures that one is different in exactly the same way as all others who seek distinction in entirely the same way! We cannot entirely escape the subtle cues that expose our history and predict our potentials regardless of one’s facial hair or body art. Communities, too, find little safe-harbor from these indications. Each, in its own way, betrays the secrets of its past, tells the story of its present and unwittingly forecasts a projection of its future. Athens recalls a storied history with grand edifices perched at the Acropolis but its present-day empty store fronts and careless graffiti speak to its contemporary challenges to keep up with northern Europe. Present day London is bustling with commerce. The streets are

filled in the early morning with citizens navigating the many construction sites converting notable buildings into more modern configurations. One is immersed in wealth. Bentley’s wiz by transporting harried fund-managers to the first stop on the daily schedule. But even here, does the empire wane? Russian oligarchs are displacing the local aristocracy with brute force and sheer wealth. For either of these two examples, will the future carry decline or renaissance? And, what indicators can help them to influence that trajectory. In our own cities and towns, we can find the same watermarks. Are we brick streets, or performance halls, or sports fields, or town squares, or lakes, or green pastures? Are we robust or sickly? Most importantly, are we paying attention? Time alone will tell.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK There is nothing more dangerous than the moment you become a hostage to yesterday’s comfort zone.

- Rob Thompson

It was a gray morning in 2013. My curtains, a mix of beige and stone found on the Target clearance racks, only intensified the misting clouds outside my Main Street windows. 7 a.m. had never felt so dreary. The baby had been awake all night (in my bed of course) and my husband was already asleep on the couch. There’s no room for three in a full size bed. He was tired from bussing tables for tips, and I was exhausted from making those tips stretch. I nursed through the days and the nights, and paid the bills with what I could. Waking my dampened spirit this morning, I crawled out of bed and slipped into my UGGs. It was Sunday morning, and in my mind Sunday morning meant donuts – because everyone knows donuts mean happiness. I was determined we have happiness for breakfast; never mind the fact that I only had $2.25 in my wallet (and even less in my bank account). At 75 cents-a-piece, I could justify one donut per person. I kissed my husband on the cheek as I walked out the door and crossed the barren brick street toward Le Dolce Vita bakery. After choosing two Boston creams, the cashier informed me that her register was broken. I could have my donuts for free, since she couldn’t print the receipt. I walked out with $2.25 still nestled in my coat pocket. It was then that I remembered a new coffee shop had opened nearby, and lucky for me - I still had $2.25. I trudged over to Darrin’s Coffee Co., where a tall black man greeted me with a friendly smile and two cups of free coffee, because, he said, he wanted me to tell the whole town about how good his coffee was. And so, I walked back up the stairs to my newborn baby and sleeping husband, with two free donuts and two free cups of coffee. I still had $2.25, which meant that just maybe, I could have donuts again next Sunday. ••• Current in Zionsville has tremendous respect for small business owners. On page three, I reported that the owner of Darrin’s Coffee Co. was arrested for previous transgressions. I hope that we, as a town, can forgive him for this and continue to support him and his coffee-roasting venture. Journalism can never be silent: that is its greatest virtue and its greatest fault. - Henry Anatole Grunwald Sophie Pappas is the managing editor of Current in Zionsville.

My wife and I went on a binge last week. If you think I’m talking about an eating binge, you’ve never seen how thin we humor both are. If you think I mean a shopping binge, you don’t know how cheap we are. And if you think it was cleaning binge, you’ve never been in our basement. The binge we did go on is a little embarrassing. I will admit that after this binge it would have been very inappropriate to drive. Oh, we weren’t drinking. But we were much too tired to get behind the wheel. We had just watched 12 episodes of the Netflix series, House of Cards, the political drama starring Kevin Spacey as the conniving congressman and then Vice President of the United States. Binge watching, as most of you know, is the act of viewing all of – or a good portion of - a particular TV series in one sitting. Generally, the term is restricted to contemporary critically acclaimed television shows, so if you once sat through 39 episodes of The Honeymooners or 112 of Andy of Mayberry, well that just doesn’t qualify (Although, you have impressed the heck out of me). On a Monday afternoon we started with Season 1, Episode 1. We watched for about six straight hours, until we realized that by being glued to the TV for this show, we were avoiding any contact with each other, so we switched

to ABC and turned on Dancing with the Stars where we could disagree on which dancers were romantically involved with their partners. The next day we went back to House of Cards. Yes, I figured out how to make that switch. At least I thought so. We were soon totally shocked to see (SPOLIER ALERT) the Vice President push (SPOILER ALERT) the newspaper reporter in front of a (SPOILER ALERT) moving train. “Well I didn’t see that coming,” said my wife Neither did the reporter, by the way). “But I think this is a very exciting chapter 14.” “Wait a second,” I said, as the show ended and they previewed the next one. “That was Episode 16. Not 14. That’s why we were confused. We missed two episodes. Netflix was still running while we were watching Dancing with the Stars.” We watched 14, 15 and then 16 (again) and finished all the remaining episodes this season, but we’ll be glad when the series is finally over. My wife said she’s had enough of Kevin Spacey pandering to the public for votes, making illegal moves and destroying his competition. I didn’t have the heart to tell Mary Ellen that next year, Kevin Spacey will be doing exactly the same thing … on Dancing with the Stars.

A vacation from motherhood Commentary by Danielle Wilson I think everyone would agree that this past winter was a tough one. Long, cold, and way too many school cancellations and humor delays. As a teacher, I desperately needed this Spring Break just to catch a breather. The stress of planning makeup lessons and quickening the pace had left me overwhelmed and frazzled. Unfortunately, my kids are in a different school system, and the calendars did not coincide this year. Not wanting to be stuck here though, Doo finagled a way for him and our kids to get to Florida through a one-way flight out of Kentucky, a rental mini-van in Tampa, and a long drive home up constructionridden I-65. I would remain here, since I’d be back to work by then. Actually, I was looking forward to both weeks. The first would give me seven hours each day to myself while my minions were at school. And I’d finally get to catch up on all those put-off house projects. I even scheduled a few fun things, like getting a spray-tan (No UVA rays for this ginger, but I still like to look alive), and going for my annual pap smear (nothing says vacation like “speculum!”). What I didn’t count on was the fact that the kids weren’t on break yet. So there was still dance, track, violin, tumbling, soccer, band, and orthodontics appointments to coordinate. I still had to get up at six every morning and organize lunches and pets. I still had to prep dinner and

help with homework. Restful? Relaxing? Not as much as I’d anticipated. Is it any wonder I was thoroughly disheartened and a tad bitter when I tromped back into school the following Monday, knowing my husband was sipping Mai Tais on a warm beach? Unexpectedly though, I actually enjoyed getting back to my students and daily routine. Turns out, teaching hadn’t been bogging me down as much as the demands of parenting had been. So that second week was heaven! Sure, I had to work, but when I came home, I had nothing to do. The house was still clean; I had no carpooling duties nor schedules to coordinate; I didn’t have to ground a teenager or even create a last minute life-size drawing of Eli Lilly for Famous Hoosier Day. I ate cereal for dinner, watched the entire second season of Downtown Abbey, and was able to turn off all the lights at 9 o’clock. No guilt, no marital friction, no kid drama. It was honestly a fantastic pseudo-Spring Break! What’s the moral of my tale? Sand and surf aren’t the only ways to recuperate from a nasty winter. A vacation from motherhood can work just as well. Peace out.

‘I Love A Piano’ a tribute to Irving Berlin’s genius By Terri Spilman • editorial@youarecurrent.com

In the spirit of preserving the Great American Songbook, The Actors Theatre of Indiana is closing out its 2013-14 season with a salute to one of America’s most beloved lyricists and songwriters. theatre “I Love A Piano” will showcase writer Irving Berlin’s music and life when it comes to the Studio Theatre stage April 25 in the Center for the Performing Arts. “I Love a Piano” is an all-singing, alldancing revue that includes more than 60 of Berlin’s

classic songs, such as “Blue Skies,” “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” “Cheek to Cheek,” “Anything You Can Do,” “God Bless America,” and, the show’s namesake, “I Love a Piano,” interspersed with tidbits of information about Berlin’s life. Berlin’s history as a Jewish immigrant from Russia along with his innate hopeful romanticism will set the scene for simple stories about everyday American life set to beautiful melodies that have become a soundtrack of the 20th century. Berlin’s accomplishments are truly amazing considering he never studied music, let alone maintained the ability to read or write it. His career started out of necessity after the death of his father, so he became a singing waiter who composed his own music as it garnered bigger tips. “Some people who praise his work say that he Shepard was such a genius because of the simplicity of the language,” said Kenny Shepard, co-director and co-choreographer of ATI’s production. “It was just bare bones. These are the words, these are the simple melodies, and the marriage of the two touch your heart.” Both Indianapolis natives, Shepard and Carol Worcel, his business partner and Worcel co-director and co-choreographer, specialize in musical storytelling and use their many years of national touring experience. They plan to use their talents to exquisitely tell the story of Berlin’s music through song and dance complete with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers ballroom elegance, 1940’s dance hall swing and a showstopping tap extravaganza. The show also includes a Falling in Love section featuring Berlin’s famous love songs, a storyline focused on his movie music, a Fifth Avenue section complete with a mock Easter Parade and a small wedding as well as the show-stopper, “There’s No Business Like Show Business” from “Annie Get Your Gun.” Berlin, a World War I veteran was also very patriotic and wrote songs about his love for America, with the most famous being “God Bless America,” which was made famous by singer Kate Smith and gained a new significance following the Sept. 11 attacks. The cast features Cynthia Collins, Michael Dotson, Judy Fitzgerald, Don Farrell, Bradley Reynolds and Mary Jayne Waddell - all veteran actors who have appeared in numerous ATI shows. Michael Berkeley arranged the music and will be at the helm of the baby grand piano. “I think it’s a great opportunity for new audiences to get to know the resident company, and if they can walk away and feel like they know a little more about Irving Berlin and about our performers, then we have done our job,” Shepard said. At 2 p.m. May 4, ATI will also host a “Behind the Curtain” talk with the cast, designers and Chris Lewis, program director for the Michael Feinstein Great American Songbook Initiative, immediately following the performance. “I Love A Piano” • April 25 though May 11 • Studio Theatre • The Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel • Tickets start at $20 • For more information call 843-3800 or visit www. thecenterfortheperformingarts.org

Kids can watch Peeps experiments during the Easter Celebration at Conner Prairie in Fishers. (Submitted photo)

Candy coma awaits at Conner Prairie By Pete Smith • pete@youarecurrent.com Conner Prairie plans to have events for the whole family during its Easter Celebration on April 19. easter Kids will have the chance to collect candy and Easter eggs, compete in egg-and-spoon races and egg rolling, and other historical games. And older kids can watch the ubiquitous and nearly indestructible Peeps marshmallows as they fizz, freeze and inflate during a science demonstration. “Easter in Prairietown is fascinating,” said Jason Adams, Conner Prairie’s manager of science interpretation. “We’re making some fun crafts out there.” And of course the Easter Bunny will be there, too. But make sure to get to Conner Prairie early so kids can enjoy breakfast while they pose for pictures with the furry rodent. Breakfast settings are available at 8:30 and 11:30 a.m., but reservations are required. The Science of Peeps events start at 11 a.m. at the welcome center, and new presentations begin on the hour through 4 p.m. For the finale of each presentation, kids will see how the Peep responds to a high impact crash by shooting them out of a potato cannon. It’s all part of an increased focus on science at Conner Prairie, Adams said, noting that Conner Prairie was an experimental farm itself until the 1970s.

And his mind, the science experiments fall into that tradition. And when else would kids get to expose the indestructible common American Peep to radiation or extreme acidic conditions? “The candy activities will be really fun, too,” Adams conceded. The Egg-Stravaganza events take place at the Overlook Lawn starting at 2 p.m. The most important of which – for candy fans – is the egg drop, which is broken down by age group. And don’t forget to watch artist Laura Clack as she decorates eggs with traditional Ukrainian folk designs using a wax-resistant (batik) method from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. And it wouldn’t be Conner Prairie without a fun way to learn about history. So in 1836 Prairietown kids can discover how the Zimmerman family dyes Easter eggs. The citizens of the town are preparing for spring and there’s a lot of planting to be done, flower arranging at the Campbell House, and “tussie-mussies” to make at the Gregory’s. People can also taste delicious maple gingerbread at the Campbell House starting at 1:30 p.m. until quantities run out. Easter Celebration • Conner Prairie • 13400 Allisonville Rd. in Fishers • 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 19 • Cost is $15 for adults, $10 for kids age 2 to 12 and free for children under 2 • For more information call 776-6006 or visit www.connerprairie.org

Owner Kevin Paul plans to open Danny Boy Beer Exchange in the Village of West Clay. (Staff photo)

Danny Boy brewery coming

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

The owners of Brockway Public House are set to open a new tap house and restaurant in the commercial area of the coming soon Village of West Clay. Danny Boy Beer Exchange is expected to open late this summer and showcase 10 to 15 rotating beers, along with its signature brews. Other breweries around the state will be featured with 30 to 35 guest taps. Lainie and Kevin Paul, who live in the Village of West Clay, are constructing a new building for their establishment, which will feature space for on-site brewing and a large outdoor dining area that could seat more than 100 customers. Possible menu items include pizza, pretzels, breadsticks, salads and sandwiches. “The thought is that it’s a brewery first, a tap house second and a restaurant third,” Kevin Paul said. The Pauls founded Danny Boy Beer Works as Carmel’s first brewery in 2011 and today they distribute more than 5,000 kegs annually.

The location, planned for 12702 Meeting House Road, will feature several beers including their signature Training Day and Black IPA brews. Brockway has been open in Carmel, across Old Meridian Street from Meijer, since 2007. But Danny Boy will have a different feel with the on-site brewing, which allows the proprietors to test out new batches to see if customers like them. Danny Boy will be inspired by Boston Irish pubs and will have a more American feel than Brockway, which has more of an industrial feel. Not only can people watch a game and relax, visitors can bring home cans, bottles and growlers of their favorite brew. Kevin Paul said the goal is to really establish Danny Boy’s brand. “We’ll try to be that craft or artisanal approach to everything we offer from the cocktails to the pizza to the beers and everything we do,” he said. Donna Park, a realtor for Brenwick Realty Company, said everyone keeps asking about the pub. “The Village of WestClay is excited about the construction of the new pub,” she said. “It is fun to have a place to gather with neighbors and take the family to grab a bite to eat.”

DISPATCHES Toyota issues more recalls Toyota said it would recall 1.7 million U.S. vehicles, another in a wave of recent recalls by major auto makers on the heels of clampdowns on vehicle safety by regulators in the United States, Japan and China. Toyota’s recall involves 27 vehicle models, including the Corolla, Yaris, Matrix compact cars and RAV4 and Highlander sport-utility vehicles. The recalls were prompted by defects ranging from seat rails to engine starters. Engine-starter defects led two vehicles in Japan to catch fire, but Toyota said it wasn’t aware of any crashes, injuries or fatalities caused by the problems that prompted the latest recalls.

Bank of America could owe you - Bank of America reached a settlement with U.S. bank regulators for $772 million over allegations the bank prodded customers into signing up for extra credit card products, federal regulators said Wednesday. The agreement, which includes $727 million in refunds to consumers and $45 million in penalties, settles allegations brought by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Credit card companies have marketed these products aggressively to consumers, saying they would protect the cardholders from identity theft or cancel debt in the event of a job loss.

I love to invite family and friends over to cook and share a meal together. Over the years I have been collecting a good amount of wonderful recipes. I cannot think of a better recipe to celebrate Easter with than this fancy, delicious and easy dish that your guests are going to eat with such “GUSTO!” SPINACH GRATIN Prepare: 10 min. • Cook: 40 min. • Serves: Ingredients: • 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter • 4 cups chopped yellow onions (2 large) • 1/4 cup flour • 1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg • 1 cup heavy cream • 2 cups milk • 3 pounds frozen chopped spinach, defrosted (5 packages - 10 ounce) • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese • 1 tablespoon salt • 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper • 1/2 cup grated Gruyere cheese Directions: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Melt the butter in a saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent,

Squeeze as much liquid as possible from the spinach and add the spinach to the sauce. Add 1/2 cup of the Parmesan cheese and mix well. Season to taste, with salt and pepper. Transfer the spinach to a baking dish and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan and the Gruyere on top. Bake for 20 minutes until hot and bubbly. Serve hot. Accompany this side dish with ham or pork chops. Have fun and happy cooking! Ceci is a Zionsville resident, who was born in New York and raised in Peru.

Who is Kunz, and why should we care? Commentary by Susan Schubes Who is George F. Kunz and why should we care? Because George Fredrick Kunz discovered a pink variety of spodumine and Jewelry promptly named it kunzite in honor of himself. Spodumine? In its common form, it is a greyish mineral whose name comes from the Greek -- meaning burnt to ashes. Besides producing both a pink and a green (hiddenite) gem variety, spodumine is an important source of lithium, used to produce medication for bipolar and other disorders. Found in pegmatites where vocanic activity has occured. Significant deposits are located in Brazil, Burma and Maine and California in the USA. At its best, kunzite is a bright glassy and sparkling pink, often confused with morganite, pink topaz and pale amethyst. It sometimes occurs as a brownish or lavender pink, which may be corrected by heating (an honorable treatment in the gem trade). Kunzite exhibits pleochroism, meaning flashes of lavender or white may be seen as the gem moves. However, kunzite from some locations can be very UV sensitive, fading with exposure to natural light -- making it a “dress me up and take me to dinner” jewel, not a gem to wear to the beach or driving in bright sunlight through the Mohave Desert. Although kunzite boasts a hardness of six to seven on the Mohs hardness scale, cutting

The Kunzite pink diamond retails for $3,500. One single rutile needle extends from the center of the culet to the center of the table facet, which, when viewed through the table, creates an opticle "circle" of needles, when, in truth, there is only one. It comes from Brazil. (Submitted photo.)

this gem requires great faceting skill because of perfect cleavage and sensitivity to pressure. Table facet needs to be carefully oriented to preserve the strong pleochroism, and many gem cutters find their first attempts cause the stone to shear off in sheets or plates, pink but pretty much useless (I have been there, and done that). But now, the rest of the story ... George Fred-

rick Kunz began collecting gems and minerals at a very young age. He neither finished high school nor attended college, but became a self-taught mineral expert, which netted him a job with Tiffany & Co. at age 18. Due to his brilliance and tenacity, he was appointed as Vice President at the age of 23, leading gem-hunting expeditions for both Tiffany and the U.S. Geological Survey. A true genius, Kunz had an ego as large as his IQ. As brilliant as he was with his work and publications, he was equally proficient at self-promotion. Remember that I mentioned he named kunzite for himself? Well, that sort of backfired. The famed robber baron banker J.P. Morgan was an important Tiffany client, collecting gemstones and bankrolling expeditions. J.P. Morgan’s favorite color was pink. When he discovered Kunz had self-named kunzite on a Morgan-financed expedition, he had a huge hissyfit, which must have been awesome, considering his bulk. He demanded that a pink gemstone be found and named for him, or he would withdraw all financial support for Tiffany. The powers that be at Tiffany issued the order and George Fredrick Kunz promptly went out and discovered morganite, but that’s another tale.

A list of grammar peeves

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “Hi Jordan, I have a few pet peeves about frequent grammar errors I see and would love for you to clear them grammar guy up for either me or the rest of the world. Here they are. 1. An apostrophe “s” after a last name. Example:“The Smith’s are here. I don’t know what the Smiths own that are here, but the suspense is killing me. 2. A cents symbol after a price that has already been given the decimal point to symbolize cents. Example: .69c (instead of $.69). I don’t know how you divide a penny into 69/100ths but I’d be willing to round up to a full penny when purchasing that pack of gum. 3. When people talk about going “further” on their drive than me. I believe they went “farther.” Furthermore, I believe they used the wrong word. Thanks for making grammar so fun! I love reading your articles! (Marcy Vigren) Answer: Thanks for writing in, and for your kind words, Marcy. Normally I wouldn’t do three questions in one column, but all of these annoy me, too, so I think we can knock them out quickly. • Apostrophes do not make words plural (except when they do). I’ve written a previous column about this, but a refresher

is always useful. An apostrophe-“s” after a noun makes it possessive, not plural, in almost all circumstances. A notable exception is making lowercase letters plural (i.e. “Mind your p’s and q’s”). • Cents get a dollar sign and a decimal OR a cents sign. You could write $0.75, or 75¢, or even, I suppose, 75 cents, and all would be equally correct. But .75¢ would suggest you are talking about fractions of a cent, which is probably best left to bankers and gas station price boards. On the whole, I’d recommend sticking with the dollar sign, since most keyboards don’t even have a ¢-sign anymore. • Further and farther are complicated. I’ve dedicated a previous column to this, but the simple answer is that “farther” indicates physical distance and “further” indicates an addition or improvement. The complicated answer is that they’ve historically been used more or less interchangeably and the distinction between them is a fairly modern one. I’d refer you to my previous column for a more elaborative discussion. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing.

Awaiting the Messiah

Commentary by Don Knebel

Jerusalem’s Mount of Olives has been important to Christians since the first century. Jesus met with his disciples among its olive travel trees, prayed with them near its base at Gethsemane and ascended to heaven from its peak near Bethany, sites all now marked by churches. For even longer, the Mount of Olives has been important to many Jews, who still seek to be buried along its slope. The Mount of Olives lies across the Kidron Valley from the eastern wall of the Temple Mount. According to Jewish tradition, the Messiah will signal his arrival by coming down the Mount of Olives, crossing the Kidron Valley and entering the Temple through the eastern wall’s Golden Gate. When Jesus followed this path riding a donkey, he was welcomed as the Messiah by followers waving palm branches. Rabbi Irving Greenberg famously said in 1967 that the difference between Jews and Christians will finally be settled when the Messiah descends the Mount of Olives and announces whether it’s his first or second trip. To the left of the path that modern visitors take down to Mount of Olives is an ancient cem-

etery, containing about 70,000 tombs from the time of King Solomon’s Temple to the present. For thousands of years, Jews desiring a ringside seat for the Messiah’s arrival have been interred along the Mount of Olives’ western slope. They believe, like other Jews and Christians, that the Messiah’s appearance (first or second) will initiate the bodily resurrection of the dead. Consequently, they are buried with their feet to the east to be able to greet the Messiah face to face as they arise from their tombs. In the meantime, people pay their respects by placing small rocks on the stone tomb covers, reflecting their belief that the entombed souls are eternal. A single grave site on the Mount of Olives reportedly costs up to $85,000. For those who can’t afford to await the Messiah from there, there may be no reason to worry. An ancient legend says believers from around the world will be able to tunnel to the Mount of Olives when the Messiah arrives.

Now is the time to start your tomato seeds indoors. For a gardener, this is probably the most exciting time of the year. Gardening You get a fresh beginning to what is going to be a great season. Well at least we hope so. Most tomato varieties can be grown in our area so choose varieties that works best for your family. Beefsteak, Cherry, Sauce, Canning, etc. … once you have the seeds you’re ready to plant. Use a soilless mix to start your seedlings. The seed itself provides enough nutrients for the seedling during this period. Any extra nutrients will make the tomatoes grow too fast and get lengthy. After six weeks of growth, your tomato transplants will be ready for the outdoors. At this stage, your plants need a slow release, organic fertilizer (5-5-5). This will promote healthy foliage growth to help protect your fruit. Select a location with good drainage and full sun. Always make sure to weather any plants that have been growing indoors. Do this by slowly introducing them to the outdoor elements over a weeks’ time. Now that your tomatoes are outdoors, make sure your soil stays moist but allow for it to almost dry out before watering again. Over watering can introduce diseases and wilt. Under watering can put unwanted stress and crack your tomatoes. When fruit begins to set you’ll need to add a side dressing of fertilizer (2-3-1) and then again at two weeks after first picking, and lastly at six weeks after first picking. Switching to a

lower nitrogen fertilizer will help tomato growth and not foliage. This fertilizer is very important to promote large, healthy tomatoes! My favorite heirloom tomatoes are Cherokee Purple, Brandywine, Golden Jubilee, Marglobe Supreme, Roma, Black Krim and Mortgage Lifter. Noah Herron is owner of Urban Farmer Garden Center, 4105 W.

Dispatches Repair larger holes outside – Two-part filler has to be mixed and it doesn’t rinse off with water, so it’s not as user friendly as other fillers. However, it’s much tougher and a much better choice for any hole bigger than a nail head, especially outdoors. And it’s not just for wood – you can patch metal, fiberglass – even concrete.

Tighten loose handles and knobs permanently – For mysterious, quantum-mechanical reasons, the screws that hold handles and doorknobs always eventually work loose. A few drops of thread-locking compound will permanently fix the problem, yet still allow you to remove the screw with ordinary

tools if you need to later. A heavier duty variety is also available for large bolts and machinery. Two lubricants you need in your house – Silicone dries quickly and invisibly and doesn’t attract dirt, making it a good lubricant for drawer rollers, window tracks, door locks, bike parts, and other plastic, metal and rubber surfaces. It also helps protect metal against rust. Lithium grease is a long-lasting, weather-resistant (though somewhat messy) lubricant for garage door tracks, car doors and latches, and other metal parts that get heavy use outside.

Dad’s advice: Whole-house remodel for ranch-style home

Commentary by Larry Greene

before & after

EXISTING HOME: This home in the 96th Street and College Avenue area was built in 1998 but had been unoccupied blueprint for for a few years. The improvement owner was able to purchase the home from a family member. “The whole house was severely outdated and I was skeptical about buying it. To ease my concerns, my dad recommended a complete house remodel. I trusted his judgment and decided to move ahead with the purchase.” DESIGN PHASE: Every single room in the dated one-story ranch needed a facelift. “I knew I wanted dark cabinetry and bamboo wood flooring throughout the house. While working through the design phase, the rest of the details fell into place.” KITCHEN DETAILS: The original kitchen was completely gutted and replaced with dark maple cabinets, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash and coordinating stainless steel appliances. To brighten up the kitchen and illuminate the dark cabinetry, new recessed light fixtures were strategically installed around the perimeter of the cabinets. Long plank bamboo flooring with a “baked natural” finish was installed not only in the kitchen, but throughout the entire house. GUEST BATH: Everything but the mirror was replaced in the guest bathroom. A dark maple vanity was installed with a coordinating “Autumn

Brown” granite countertop. The original tub and ceramic tile surround was replaced with a deep soaking tub and shower wall surround. MASTER BATH: The original master bath had old carpet, outdated fixtures and peeling wallpaper. Everything was gutted and prepped for a complete remodel. The same dark maple cabinetry and granite countertops were kept

FOREVER

RESULT: After all the planning and construction, the dated house was transformed into this first-time homeowner’s dream home. “The kitchen is by far my favorite room in the entire house. I like the way the colors all turned out with the dark cabinets and light-colored countertops and backsplash.”

consistent with the guest bathroom vanity. Replicating the look of natural travertine, porcelain tile called “Giotto Gris” was used for the floor and shower walls. The shower was finished with a new brushed nickel shower head and a semiframeless glass shower enclosure.
