Boutique’s relocation made way for new venture

By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Clintonville’s loss is Clintonville’s gain.

When the Objects for the Home boutique outgrew its space at 3284 N. High St. after only a year, owners Chelsea Cabot and Kris Konieczko relocated to 1392 Grandview Ave. and a store that, at 1,700 square feet, doubled the size of the previous shop.

That paved the way for a mom-and-pop operation to move in.

Literally.

John and Sue Konieczko, Kris Konieczko’s parents, recently opened Cottage Street Home Furnishings in the spot vacated by Objects for the Home.

The new enterprise offers vintage furniture, much of it painted and repaired by John Konieczko, who was a finish carpenter for 16 years in the remodeling business.

“Like our kids did when they were here, we search estate sales, auctions, sometimes yard sales, just looking for the right pieces to put in here,” the Grove City resident said. “Our goal is to make people excited about what we’re doing here.”

The two enterprises, the one run by “the kids” and Cottage Street, came about almost by happenstance, according to John Konieczko. Son Kris, who has a master’s degree from the Knowlton School of Architecture at Ohio State University, was living in the Short North near the upscale consignment store, Grandview Mercantile. Intrigued by the idea of selling some of the items they had collected at estate sales and auctions, John Konieczko See COTTAGE STREET, page A6

Clintonville to get ‘art walk’ treatment

By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Columbus Public Health officials are hoping to encourage people to be more active by giving them something to do on a walk beyond simply wearing out shoe leather.

Building on a series of walking maps that date to 2006 and were intended to overcome “real and perceived barriers to daily walking in life,” according to Betsy A. Pandora, healthy places coordinator, the latest effort is titled “Columbus Art Walks.”

Clintonville will be the ninth and possibly final neighborhood to have art walks, self-guided tours which also take in architecture and history via recorded messages that can be accessed on a cell phone.

“The maps direct you to sites while recorded messages tell you about each one,” according to the health department’s website. “The majority of the routes are accessible and flat.”

Seven neighborhoods already have art walks, according to Pandora. They include the Arena District, Discovery District, Franklinton, German Village, Statehouse area, Short North and UniversiSee ‘ART WALK’ TREATMENT, page A3

Clintonville-raised jazz musician Christian Howes was nominated Jazz Violinist of the Year by the Jazz Journalists Association. He has toured the world headlining his own performances and also playing with greats like Les Paul. Howes is seen here playing his violin in the back yard of his Clintonville home.

Jazz violinist happy to be back home

By KEVIN PARKS ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Creative Strings performances set

Christian Howes has been all around the world, only to come back to live a short distance from the house he grew up in on East Como Avenue.

Music took him far from home, and it brought him back again.

Although classically trained as a violinist starting at age 5, the 38-yearold was among the nominees an award from the Jazz Journalists Association.

“I felt really a lot of satisfaction,” Howes said of his reaction upon being nominated. “I felt really proud.”

The Jazz Violinist of the Year from the “international group writers, editors, photographers, broadcasters, filmmakers, educators and media professionals who institute collegial and educational programs for the appreciation, documentation and promulgation of jazz,” as the JJA is described on its website, went instead to Billy Bang.

“I’ve always got next year,” Howes said.

Participants in local jazz violinist Christian Howes’“Creative Strings Workshop and Festival” have been performing at venues throughout central Ohio this week.

The schedule for today (Thursday, June 23), includes: • North Market, 12:30 to 2 p.m.

• Global Gallery Coffee Shop, 7 to 9 p.m.

• Espresso Yourself Music Café, 7 to 9 p.m.

• McConnel Arts Center, 8 to 10 p.m.

The schedule for Friday, June 24, includes: • Pearl Market, 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

The schedule for Saturday, June 25, includes: • Clintonville Farmer’s Market, 10:30 a.m. to noon • Bluegrass Musician’s Supply Shop, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

• McConnel Arts Center,Youth Program Showcase, 12:30 to 2 p.m.

• Comfest Jazz Stage, 3:40 to 4:40 p.m.

Billy Bang, born William Vincent Walker in Mobile, Ala., died of lung cancer on April 11 at age 63.

Howes said that he felt it was only right that his fellow jazz violinist should receive the honor in light of his death.

Although the Clintonville native

has only been back in his hometown for about a year and a half after eight years spent living in New York City and touring worldwide, in a way he never really left.

“I always had a toe in Columbus,” Howes said.

Howes is currently in the middle

of his ninth “Creative Strings Workshop and Festival,” being held through June 25 at the Columbus College of Art and Design and various performing venues throughout central Ohio. The gathering began small, in a local bed and breakfast, before moving to Otterbein College, now Otterbein University, and this year to CCAD. Howes said that it was his daughter, Camille, now 14, who first helped him become interested in teaching, which led to the workshop and festival. Its aim is to get others trained to play stringed instruments to expand their horizons the way he did when he embraced jazz for violin, at a time when very few felt it was appropriate for the genre.

“The most important part of being a satisfied musician is having opportunities to be creative,” Howes said in a statement announcing this year’s workshop and festival. “Violinists and cellists are typically trained to See JAZZ VIOLINIST, page A2

Area second Ohio site for California-based yogurt cafe

California is more or less awash in yogurt shops.

That’s why the owners of the Groovy Spoon in the Los Angeles area leaped over many states and thousands of miles to land in Ohio, first in Marion and most recently in Clintonville at 3665 N. High St., in

What sets Groovy Spoon apart, even from all those others in and around L.A., according to the manager, is that the store offers Belgian waffles and crepes made fresh to the customer’s order, as well as blending “smoothies” with ingredients patrons pick out themselves.

“It’s been going really, really well,” she said. “I think Clintonville is accepting us. They really enjoy it. There are people who come in every single day. I have some people who come in a couple of times a day.”

Ramp improvement project needs volunteers Continued from page A1 Blazer said he envisions a similar litter patrol and invasive plant removal at the North Broadway interchange in July and the Weber Road ramp in August.

James R. “I think one of the Blazer II things … this project is a fairly large project and so we’ve kind of divided it into three different months,” Blazer said.

He added that he first began exploring the idea of upgrading the landscaping at I-71 interchanges shortly after being elected to the CAC in May 2010, and even had meetings with state Rep. Jim Hughes (R-Columbus.)

When Remy was elected vice president of the NCC in February, he sepa-

rately came up with the concept and the title of Revamp the Ramp, and got in touch with Clintonville Area Commission chairman John DeFourny, who John in turn put him in con- DeFourny tact with Blazer.

Tony Howard, manager of the Karl Road and Northern Lights branches of the Columbus Metropolitan Library, has been representing the North Linden Area Commission in the Revamp the Ramp planning, according to Remy.

“Were hoping to have a good crowd,” he said of Saturday’s cleanup effort.

“There are plenty of people on the Clintonville side who have said they want to participate, and we’re getting the word out to Maize-Morse and others in Northland and North Linden.”

“This project is not a project that has people who object to it,” Blazer said.

“For a change, that’s really nice. It doesn’t have a lot of controversy. It’s something that’s going to improve all of our rides home. It’s something that everybody is going to benefit from, Clintonville, North Linden and Northland, all of north Columbus.”

Part of the community commitment to qualify for ODOT grant money involves agreeing to maintain the upgraded landscaping for an as-yet undetermined period of time, perhaps three to five years, Blazer said. This would involve mowing the grass, weeding the plantings and removing litter, in addition to paying for the initial plantings.

“Those are all things that I think the public would be happy to participate in,” Blazer said. “Certainly, there are a lot of people who would be interested in that and, quite frankly, enjoy doing that

Jazz violinist happy to be back home in Clintonville ian’s parents sent him to study in Ginny Christopherson’s Suzuki Violin Program at Capital University.

“I was in, probably her first class, 1977 or so,” Howes said.

Camille is now studying violin under Christopherson.

Howes said that he was “in the middle of the pack” in terms of the talent he showed when first learning to play the violin.

“Later on, I started to show signs that I was really passionate about it and directed,” he said. “I stuck with it. I kept doing it. Maybe some kids were better than me at 8 or 9 or 12.”

But none of them wound up playing the Mendelssohn “Violin Concerto” with the Columbus Symphony Orchestra at 16, as Howes did.

Upon graduating from high school in Delaware, Howes enrolled at OSU. And emerged with a degree in philosophy.

Say what?

The music program there, Howes felt, “put me in a box.”

Whereas he was ready to explore the violin as a jazz musician, even though not even a handful of people were making a living at it, the instrument wasn’t even viewed by

The best way for string players to attain a more creative career is to get out and play creative music for real audiences in welcoming venues.

“Our workshop and festival has a symbiotic relationship with Columbus in that the city offers venues and an audience to the musicians who need it, while our musicians offer Columbus an enthusiasm that infects the community through expressive, rich, explorative music. Our presence will hopefully be felt in the music scene as an injection of fresh spirit, which the audience picks up on. This is how music should enrich communities. The workshop facilitates real expression.”

Like many artists, Howes knows his inspiration came from his parents — just a little earlier than in most cases.

“Music entered my life when I was in the womb because my parents were studying voice at Ohio State,” he said last week.

When he was 5, little Christ-

university officials as being proper for that genre.

After graduation, Howes remained in Columbus for several years.

“I would play in every kind of band there was,” he said, often seeking to break down barriers between different kinds of music.

During his time spent in New York City, where he still maintains an apartment, Howes spent three years on the faculty of the Berklee School of Music in Boston.

Eventually, though, commuting back to Columbus to visit daughter Camille and wife Colleen, who had remained behind while he toured and taught, got to be more than a drag. After son Dalton was born, Howes said that he felt it was time to come back to Clintonville, where virtually his whole family lives. “It’s been great to be back here,” he said.

Although Howes keeps up a grueling touring schedule — 75 cities since last August, including stops throughout Asia, Europe and Canada — he’s increasingly finding satisfaction, and some trepidation, in teaching opportunities.

“You come face to face with yourself when you see this kid is looking at you for direction,” he said.

sort of thing.

“It’s been widely accepted. People are excited about the possibilities.”

The ODOT program is sometimes referred to as Operation Cloverleaf.

“ODOT is sowing the seeds of pride in communities around the state, through the Gateway Landscaping Program,” according to the department’s website.

“This program, funded by Federal Transportation Enhancement Funds, has set aside funds for highway landscaping in Ohio communities. The program provides aesthetically appealing corridors leading into Ohio’s cities and villages.”

The program provides money to buy trees, shrubs, mulch, soil amendments and other landscaping materials. Plants and landscaping materials are the only eligible costs funded by the program. Labor, equipment rental, landscape design costs and other maintenance costs will not be funded.

Local governments (in this instance the CAC) must agree to provide litter removal, landscaping installation and maintenance, and general aesthetic improvements to the state highway right of way. Proposed landscaping plans must be in compliance with ODOT’s Roadside Safety Guidelines and the Traffic Engineering Manual, according to the website information.

“That has been a success story,” Blazer said of the Gateway Landscaping Program.

He added that cleanup organizers hope improvements to all three interchanges can be accomplished in time for the 2012 bicentennial celebrations for Columbus.

“It’s kind of an exciting little project, and it will have a pretty big impact on all our communities,” Blazer said. kparks@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Guide guides people to healthful foods A publication of the Clintonville-based Ohio Ecological Food and Farm Association can help in bringing fresh garden vegetables, off-the vine berries and orchard harvests to any kitchen.

Titled “The Good Earth Guide to Organic and Ecological Farms, Gardens and Related Businesses,” the publication includes information on more than 315 farms and businesses that sell directly to the public, including more than 150 certified organic farms and businesses and more than 70 community supported agriculture programs.

The directory identifies sources for locally grown vegetables; fruits; herbs; honey; maple syrup; dairy products; grass-fed beef, pork and lamb; free-range chicken and eggs; fiber; flour and grains; cut flowers; plants; hay and straw; seed and feed; and other local farm products.

“Since we started publishing ‘The Good Earth Guide’in 1990,

it’s grown from a list of a dozen or so farms to more than 315, reflecting the tremendous growth in demand for locally sourced and sustainably produced foods,” association program director Renee Hunt said in a statement.

“You can find just about anything you’d want being grown or produced right here in Ohio,” she added. “By offering this guide, we hope to help Ohioans make the connections they need to find quality local foods, and to help ensure the future of a vibrant and sustainable food system,” said Hunt.

Each farm listing includes name and contact information, products sold, a farm description and whether the farm is certified organic. Both the print and online versions include tools that make it easy to search the listings for a specific product, farm, or farmer, by county or by sales method.

Additionally, the online version includes locations and maps

for where the farm’s products are sold. “‘The Good Earth Guide’helps provide a blueprint for consumers interested in eating locally and in-season,” according to Hunt.

“Eating locally allows consumers to get to know who raises the food they eat, and to find out how it was produced. It keeps produce from traveling far distances, allowing it to be picked and sold ripe and full of flavor and nutrition. Buying locally and directly from the farmer also helps keep our food dollars in the local economy, which in turn helps our rural communities.”

“The Good Earth Guide” is available free to the public in an online searchable database at http://www.oeffa.org/searchgeg.php.

Print copies are distributed free to OEFFA members and are available to non-members for $7.50 each at http://www.oeffa.org/oeffastore.php.

“We’re still cooking and developing and finetuning an art walk in the Near East area, which is probably the one that’s going to come out next, … then we’ll have one for Clintonville, as well,” Pandora said.

Pandora was scheduled to discuss proposed art walk routes with local residents earlier this week, but she invited anyone interested in offering their thoughts on the subject to do so.

Pandora has been working with Clintonville Historical Society president Mary Rodgers in devising the art works for the neighborhood.

The original walking maps were intended to help people understand the various types of services and businesses they could get to without driving, like a dry cleaner or grocery store, according to Rodgers.

“This time, they’re going through and actually doing what they call art and architecture tours,” Rodgers said. “It’s a combination of art, architecture and a little bit of history.”

The art walks, in Pandora’s view, do the walk-

ing maps one better, “kick them to the next level.”

“It’s just a really fun and exciting program, and we’ve had a really good response to them,” Pandora said.

All the art walks have been developed with the help of residents in the neighborhoods where the tours take place, the healthy places coordinator added.

“The folks who live there know, and these are the ones who have previously put things together about the neighborhood or who are really passionate about it,” Pandora said. “I don’t know of any other program that is a walking tour program that focuses on art and history and architecture as part of a health goal.”

“I think it’s great that they’ve combined those two things together,” Rodgers said.

The Clintonville art walks exist in draft form so far, and Rodgers said that it may be four to five weeks before they are ready to be printed and distributed.

Anyone with thoughts on what might be worthy of consideration for inclusion in a local art walk is invited to contact Pandora. Her email address is EAPandora@ columbus.gov.

614-538-2422 As it were

Many people find Indian trails especially intriguing. The notion that we may be walking (or, more often, driving) on the same path taken by the Shawnee, Wyandot or Mingo resiED dents of cenLENTZ tral Ohio gives us a living link to the past.

In an age increasingly made of plastic and microchips, there is something reassuring about the idea that we still follow the same roads used by others for hundreds of years.

And we do follow those previous paths … more or less.

Just as there is something magical in being able to touch a piece of the past in the roads we travel, so, too, there is more than a little myth. In other words, while Ohioans still use former Indian trails to travel around the state, they are not always exactly what we think they are.

There are other parts of the Ohio story that have a similar propensity. The Underground Railroad was neither underground nor a railroad. Rather, it was a network of daring people, black and white, who helped runaway slaves escape to freedom in Canada in the years before the American Civil War. “Stations” on the Underground Railroad might be a barn, a sheltered ravine or even an occasional secret room in a local house.

Today, many older houses in the area are offered for sale with the wistful suggestion that the place was “rumored” to be a stop on the Underground Railroad.

Most of these places were no such thing. Running a station on the Underground Railroad was illegal and dangerous. Most people did not take the risk. But the legend persists.

A similar sort of gloss covers the story of the Scioto Trail.

Native American people had lived in Ohio for thousands of years before the arrival of European explorers only a few hundred years ago. The earliest residents of Ohio were few in number and generally lived their lives following the animal herds then living in the state. So the earliest trails were those made by the buffalo, deer and other animals.

Eventually, the roaming stopped and more permanent towns were built. The people who built them constructed earthen monuments and enclosures and later came to be called the Moundbuilders.

Central Ohio is rich in the remains of these prehistoric people, although we are not as rich as we once were. While a 40-

foot mound at the south end of what is now downtown Columbus is remembered by the name of Mound Street, the mound itself is long gone, as are many more around Ohio. All of these Moundbuilder villages were linked by trails, as well. Some are the same that will be used by later residents of the state. Many are not.

Most of the major Indian trails that will be remembered and later marked as such date from the relatively recent history of the past few hundred years when English, French and later American colonial travelers came to Ohio and left a record of what they found.

What would come to be called the Bullskin Trail, the Great Trail and the Scioto Trail were undoubtedly once animal trails before they began to be used by people. And these trails also quite probably changed in course and location with the passage of time.

As early European settlers came to Ohio, they followed these same trails and made them their own. Eventually, they would become roads of greater or lesser permanence.

Because downtown Columbus sits on a ridge and once had a large mound in its midst, it is easy to presume that what is now High Street must have been a major Indian trail. That is partly right. High Street was indeed an Indian trail, but it was not a major one.

Indian trails in central Ohio generally seek high ground because it is dry and clear for much of the year. Until well into the 19th century, most Ohio rivers looked very different than they do today. They were generally wider and deeper and flanked on

each side by large areas of lowlying wetlands. They were hard places to travel through. Similarly, the high ridge on the east side of the Scioto was punctuated by deep ravines every mile or two. These ravines and their attendant creeks and wetlands made travel difficult as well.

For these and other reasons, the Scioto Trail linking Lake Erie to the Ohio River skirted west of what is now downtown Columbus and traveled north following the ridge line separating the Scioto and Olentangy river valleys. That original route is not all that well-marked and certainly is not as well-traveled.

In the years after the American Revolution, the smaller, lessused trail east of the Scioto came to be used more and more to link the villages of central Ohio. When a private company built the first major road to the Lake Erie towns, it came to be called the Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike. The turnpike was not very successful. Badly constructed and poorly maintained, the road was a sea of mud in the spring and impassable in the winter. And despite these problems, the road continued to charge a toll. When the company finally closed, many people were pleased.

But the Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike demonstrated that the route was correct for a properly constructed road. It would take many years and a number of other challenges before U.S. Route 23 became that road.

In all, it is the story of a road less-traveled becoming a path of choice of central Ohio.

Volunteers sought for June 25 ‘green deed’ The “June Green Deed event” from Green Columbus will involve the removal of honeysuckle from a wooded area in the vicinity of Clinton Como Park.

Volunteers are needed to remove the invasive plant on Saturday, June 25, from 9 a.m. to noon.

This will be in the woods where West Weber Road dead-ends at the park.

“Clinton woods are mature shaded woods that stretch along the Olentangy River and bike trail,” according to the call for volunteers. “The wooded area is part of the Clinton-Como Park floodplain restoration and preservation project.”

Tools, gloves and beverages will be provided.

For more information, contact Julie Smiley (614)268-4849 or via e-mail, juliesmiley1@yahoo. com.

North Clintonville group to promote business growth A handful of North Clintonville neighbors have formed the North Clintonville Development Task Force with the goal of fostering business development.

The group is asking those who live in the area south of Worthington, north of Morse Road and between Indianola Avenue and the Olentangy River to take a survey at the Facebook page for North Clintonville Development Task Force.

There are also drop boxes at 57 Westview Ave. and 153 East

Kanawha Ave. for surveys found on the back of June’s Sharon Heights Community Association newsletter.

The surveys must be completed and returned by Saturday, June 25.

According to a press release, the group was formed by Nancy Stewart, Jane Lopez, Anne Hilson, Brett Warner, Kathy Walters and Frank Batchelder.

The area of focus is just north of the Graceland Shopping Center that is anchored by the Accor Reservation Center, Wesley Glen

Retirement Community and the Ohio Schools for the Blind and Deaf.

It’s a mix of 3,300 single-family and apartment households with a median income of around $46,000.

COTTAGE STREET Continued from page A1 asked his son to inquire about obtaining space in Grandview Mercantile.

Before that could happen, though, the two couples stopped in at Funky and Functional, another consignment operation along North High Street in the Short North. Mom and dad and Kris Konieczko and Chelsea Cabot, who has a degree in interior design from OSU, rented a “third of a booth” in Funky and Functional, John Konieczko said. They soon needed an entire booth each, and then branched out to selling items at the Heritage Square Antique Mall on Channingway Center Boulevard, followed by the opening of Objects for the Home.

“We just enjoyed it so much we kept getting bigger,” John Konieczko said.

Chelsea and Kris “really just had a vision of getting bigger and better,” so jumped on it when the Grandview Avenue location opened up, and that motivated Sue and John to try their hand at running a retail operation.

None of the four had any previous experience in retail, John Konieczko said, but it doesn’t seem to have held any of them back.

“Of course our kids are very talented and we just kind of learned from them,” John Konieczko said.

He works at the store full-time while Sue Konieczko is employed by Nationwide Insurance.

Cottage Street Home Furnishings is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and noon to 5 p.m. on Sundays.

A world of possibilities is right around the corner.

The Beat Arts, eats and fun in central Ohio

FAB 5

By Jim Fischer

jfischer@thisweeknews.com “We’re the young gen1 eration …”

Well, we all were, once. Doesn’t mean that we can’t still have a little fun celebrating the 45th anniversary of The Monkees.

Of course, when The Beat was the young generation, we watched the TV show, bought and listened to the records, took our sandwich to school in the lunchbox — heck, we tried to wear the clothes, or at least something like them. As an adult, we’ve had the pleasure of interviewing both Mickey Dolenz and Peter Tork, two of the three original Monkees, with Davy Jones, that infrequently still make these treks to remind folks that “We may be coming to your town.”

As in, Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Friday, June 24. Tickets are $40/$42. Call 1-800-7453000. got to be there, 2 so You’ve beat it down to the lawn at Chemical Abstracts Service Saturday, June 25, for a thriller

of a show as the Columbus Symphony Orchestra presents “The Music of Michael Jackson” at Picnic with the Pops.

Aided by a full band fronted by singers James Delisco, Kelli Reisen and Felecia Barton, and conducted by Larry Baird, the CSO will pay tribute to the King of Pop on many of his best and well-known songs.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $8 for children age 3-14. For tickets or other information, call (614) 228-8600.

Kenny Chesney is the

3 embodiment of the American Dream.

Armed with a dash of talent and an unquenchable desire to succeed, Chesney became a star.

Heck, he’s not even confined to “country-music superstar” any more — he has transcended into

pop culture fixture.

A n d while his career in Nashville began with a songwriter contract, he’s largely using s o n g s penned by others, meaning he’s making some good, albeit behind-the-scenes, people some money — like Matraca Berg, who, prior to her concert here last month, admitted to The Beat she is often plagued by selfdoubt. Berg co-wrote Chesney’s latest single, a duet with Grace Potter titled You & Tequila.

Chesney plays Crew Stadium Saturday, June 25. Tickets are $94.50-$62.50. Call 1-800-7453000.

Umphrey’s McGee is a genuine prog-rock band, the 4 musical test-tube baby of the Dixie Dregs and King Crimson.

The Chicago sextet is equally adept at changing time signatures and the occasional pomp and circumstance as it is at ripping off groovy vocal harmonies.

Improvisation is a staple of the UM live set.

Tickets for the band’s Sunday, June 26, show at Lifestyle Communities Pavilion are $20/$25.

Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears (as perfect a name for a stompin’-good blues-soul outfit as you’re likely to find) opens. Call 1-800-745-3000.

Tim East5 on,For playing a gig in Columbus is coming home.

The singer-songwriter isn’t a native, but he credits Columbus as his artistic crucible, where he “went to my first gigs” and “influential record stores.”

I’d rather hang out with my friends He now calls southern California’s desert high and play music, but you’re pretty much forced country home, although he told The Beat that, to do it.”

He shifted much of his commerce operation to despite adding a daughter to his family and the benefits of putting down roots, he’s not convinced TimEaston.com, and this way, he said, “people at least know they’re dealing directly with me.” he’s settled down just yet.

While working the business side of things for Easton said the setting is allowing him to get a lot of work done. The Beat is inclined to agree, Beat the Band, Easton recorded an album of new given he’s releasing two albums this summer and solo material, literally out by a campfire.

“I guess I’m a workaholic,” he said. “I seem ple might think these songs are old.”

Easton’s current tour features a full-time band, “I named it that way because it felt like we were a band,” Easton explained. “We had trav- The Madison Square Gardeners, and will feature eled together and worked the songs, and I had- the entire Beat the Band record, along with a n’t had an album with a band in a long time, so smattering of older tunes. Easton said each show will include a solo acoustic set as well.

I made up the name.”

“I’ve been able to make a living at this because “It’s a great record, a real album, a collection of songs that go together,” he said. “It’s a very of my solo acoustic stuff, but when you make an personal record and I’m really proud of it. It might album like (Beat the Band), you want to go out not be in a bunch of Top 50 Albums of the Year and play it,” he said. “And I love playing with a list but I think, as a piece of art, it really hangs in band.” there.”

Umphrey’s McGee

Radhuni is more exotic, less expensive than Indian Oven Lovers of the Indian Oven — and the Oven’s a player with tons of lovers — might suddenly be motivated to stray.

See, the Oven’s handsome younger brother has blown into town, and he’s just as hot as the Oven, only even more interesting and exotic. Plus — and this’ll be a big plus for potential paramours — this one sits in an easily accessible neighborhood.

Located on Olentangy River Road near Ackerman, Radhuni is the attractive newbie, and its seductive cuisine and proximity to Clintonville, OSU, Upper Arlington and Grandview portend a lengthy list of future friends.

Count me in.

Radhuni (Bengali for a potent and popular spice) occupies a brightly colored and sleek space that’s long and narrow, completely kitschless and virtually decoration-free. Other than few large and unconventional architectural storage elements, the eye-catchers are limited to a fire-engine red, sky-high ceiling and smooth, cream-colored walls

MENU

by G.A. Benton further cooled by deep swaths of soothing blue paint.

Radhuni’s food is as distinctive as its appearance. Oh, sure, you can get all of those ho-hum, same-old same-olds like tandoori chicken, but what makes this place special are much rarer dishes, many Bengali in origin.

For a hearty starter, target the large and excellent alu kabobs ($6.25). Considering they’re huge and un-skewered tuber croquettes (alu means potato), they’re misleadingly labeled. Considering they’re absolutely delicious — a puffy and plump quartet of crisp breadcrumbed, cumin-kissed mashers with chopped hard egg in the middle — who cares?

Equally fun, if a bit greasy, were fried Indochinese treats called cabbage chick-

en rolls ($7). These were like handmade spring rolls jammed with cabbage and a bunch of super-satisfying, mustard seed-powered, minced curried chicken.

Chicken again was uncommonly interesting in two standout features listed under House Specialties (where I

was directed by well-informed waiters.)

Chickpea chicken ($13) was a bone-in half-chicken stewed in a rich split garbanzo bean base bearing an intensified, dal-like flavor. Adding to the fingerlicking party were turmeric, ginger and a blast of what tasted like that crazy (and for me, addictive) Indian condiment called mixed pickle.

The roasted chicken ($14) is one of those killer dinners with a prosaic name belying mouth-walloping flavors. Another half-bird on the bone was perfectly, succulently roasted and drenched in a complex, sweet and spicy, thick and sticky sauce featuring long-cooked onions with a zingy and cardamomleavened curry kick.

Moving beyond poultry, the shrimp biryani ($17) had a lot going on, also.

Basically a shareable saffron rice dish, it was populated with sweet little freshwater shrimp, coconut, raisins, crushed nuts, peas and Indian aromatics.

My only problem with the luscious, unctuous and falling-off-the-bone Ben-

Radhuni Address: 2895 Olentangy River Road, campus Phone: (614) 447-9760 Web: radhunicuisine.com gali lamb shank ($15) was that I wanted more. A glistening, smallish leg of lamb was slathered with a tangy, rich and vinegar-aroused gravy deepened by red and green peppers.

Potatoes and rice were provided to sop up every last bit of the wonderful sauce — but if you still lick your plate when nobody’s looking, I’d understand.

For a refreshing but comforting dessert, try the cool and pleasantly viscous fruit custard ($5). Healthier than it tastes, it’s tangy homemade yogurt moderately sweetened with “a touch of cream” and chopped mangoes and mandarin oranges.

Sure, Indian Oven also offers that, but (shhhh) it’s cheaper at Radhuni — and there are more things to do afterward nearby.

New Yabo’s Tacos touts chef-inspired fresh menu Classically trained by some of the best chefs in the country, Scott Boles has changed culinary directions, to say the least.

On June 17, Boles and partners Brent King and Greg Debbe opened Yabo’s Tacos in the former Giammarco’s Pizza & Pasta site at 7097 state Route 3 in Westerville.

But it’s not just any taco joint, Boles said.

“I have my standards,” he said.

They include beef and pork shoulder, each braised for 12 hours in a signature blend of spices. The fish tacos, made of cod loins, are topped with an ancho chile aioli. Yabo’s offers three distinct, homemade sauces: Serrano-lime (hot), chipotle (medium) and “Sissy” (mild) with a base of tomato and chiles.

Each is offered tableside and for retail sale. Noth-

ing is frozen.

“It’s still slow food,” Boles said.

“It’s from-scratch preparation.”

Yabo’s menu is pretty straightforward: tacos and burritos, using either white corn or flour tortillas, plus rice bowls and wraps. Aside from braised meats and fish, the menu offers grilled steak, shrimp, chicken and vegetables, and sautéed ground beef.

Several salads topped with house-made dressing, plus a white bean and chicken chili and a vegetarian soup round out the menu selections.

The 3,000-square-foot interior seats 75, with an additional 50 on the patio. The place has a full liquor license. (Giammarco’s has since moved down the street.)

Boles acknowledges the existing rivalry in the fresh-Mex market from taco trucks, Mexican restaurants, Chipotle, Qdoba and newcomer Hot Head Burritos, which has plans for at least a dozen stores in the Columbus market.

“I expect us to see more competition in the future,” he said. “Hopefully, we’ve got a jump on them.”

The partners have plans to open five more Yabo’s in the Columbus market. With inexpensive fare, beer and lots of TVs, they’re going after the sports-bar segment of the industry.

Boles received an associate’s degree in hotel and restaurant management from Northeastern University and an associate’s degree in culinary arts from Bunker Hill Community College. He considers his top mentors to be Jim Berrini, former personal chef for President John F. Kennedy, and Arthur Bucceri, chef at the Ritz-Carlton in Boston.

“I suppose what they taught me the most are the lessons of technique,” Boles said. “Technique is key, giving you a style that’s your own and hopefully different and stands out more than other cooks.”

Working mostly in resorts across the country, and owning two restaurants of his own, Boles said hasn’t been an active chef for more than 15 years.

His life after the restaurant business included everything from being a district manager for a vending-machine business to hawking cell phones to joining the corporate world. But nothing had to do with food.

He cooked for many charity events and taught cooking classes to keep fresh, but the restaurant business kept tugging at his apron strings. But he didn’t want to live in the kitchen, something required in a full-service restaurant.

Team Columbus trying new approach

By BRAD EMERINE ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Rather than compete in American Legion baseball this summer, a handful of former Legion teams decided to pool their talent and compete as an Under-18 travel team called Team Columbus.

The team is comprised of 13 players from four high schools: Upper Arlington (6), Thomas Worthington (4), Watterson (2) and Worthington Kilbourne (1).

“The (high school) coaches got together and said they wanted to try something different,” said coach Todd Pfeil, who coached UA’s former Legion team, Northwest Post 443, the past seven years. “That’s all I can say is that we all came to a decision that we wanted to go a new direction and see how it works out.”

“There are multiple reasons for choosing not to play Legion this year,” UA coach Matt Middleton said. “It has become a form of high schoolonly ball and the play was so incon-

sistent. We would beat up on somebody one day and then get beaten up the next day. The level of play was so drastically inconsistent that in this sport you can get bored with it rather quickly.”

Middleton said he spoke with Watterson coach Scott Manahan and Thomas coach Stephen Gussler and that the three of them had the same feeling about the direction of Legion baseball and how they could improve their varsity teams.

“We want our younger guys playing

against great competition every day,” Middleton said. “This year, we had allowed some of our guys to play for select teams before we made this decision. But I think if we continue this, we’ll go to tournaments and be able to compete with the Columbus Sharks and Columbus Cobras and select teams like that.

“Our schedule is such that we’re playing select teams, we’re playing the true Legion teams. That’s what we want.”

Middleton said those types of teams

are what Legion baseball used to represent.

“Those Legion teams that still draw from several high schools dominate at state,” he said. “In Columbus, it’s been about keeping the younger guys together from the same high school. In Upper Arlington, we kept the freshmen together and just played U-15 travel ball. But the older they get, you want them competing and being successful playing with and against strong See BASEBALL, page B2

Cap City Senior Bowl

East all-stars hold on for win over West

By SCOTT GERFEN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

To watch Grove City High School graduate Luke Smurthwaite scramble and make a play seemingly out of nothing, it looked like more was on the line than the outcome of an allstar football game.

One of central Ohio’s top quarterbacks, Smurthwaite made sure his team didn’t lose without putting up a fight in the Cap City Senior Bowl on June 18 at Westerville Central.

The Kent State recruit completed three of five passes for 36 yards during the West all-stars’

final drive, which ended at midfield with a fumble as time expired.

A strong defensive effort led

by Independence lineman Tim Dysart (Morehead State) helped the East all-stars win 14-7.

“It was really great to just be playing football again and getting the rust out of my system before I head off to college,” said Smurthwaite, who was named the West’s Offensive Player of the Game. “I’ve grown up scrambling around like that and I guess that’s why I’ve gotten good at it.”

It was no surprise to West coach Derek Katris, who coached Smurthwaite on junior varsity at Grove City.

“Luke’s going to give you everything he’s got,” said Ka-

tris, who is now the head coach at Briggs. “He’s going to play with all the heart he has. We had a lot of penalties and missed assignments, but what are you going to do when you only have (the players) for a week?”

Marion-Franklin’s Jeremy McCoy, who also will play at Kent State, slipped past defenders and caught a 70-yard

touchdown pass from Beechcroft quarterback Sheldon Akin (Mesabi Range Community & Technical College) with 1 minute, 36 seconds left in the first half to give the East a 14-0 lead.

The East also scored on its opening drive. Westerville South’s See CAP CITY, page B2

A central Ohio club soccer team has won a Midwest Regional Cup title each of the past two summers after local squads failed to do so the previous six years.

The Blast F.C. Under-15 boys team won a Regional Cup in 2009, and the Crew Juniors U19 boys squad won regional and national championships last year.

Heading into the 2011 Regional Cup tournament, which will be held Saturday through Wednesday, June 25-29, in Fox Cities, Wis., Crew Juniors U-19 boys coach Brian Bliss said he wouldn’t be surprised if a central Ohio squad won a regional championship for the third consecutive season.

However, Bliss said it will be difficult for the five local boys teams and four local girls squads to win their age brackets regardless of their talent level.

“Sometimes it’s more difficult to win the Regional Cup than the national tournament because you have to play five games in five days in the regional tournament and there’s very little room for error,” Bliss said. “A lot of people have forgotten, but we were three minutes away from being eliminated from pool play in the regional tournament last year before we rallied (for a 3-1 win over Everest Soccer Club) to reach the semifinals. A lot of teams have the talent and potential to win this tournament, but you need to make plays at the right time to get it done.”

More than 270 preliminary games will be played as boys and girls U.S. Youth Soccer State Cup champions, select wildcards and Midwest Regional League qualifiers in the U-13 through U-19 age groups compete. All of the age groups have been divided into three- or four-team brackets, and every team will play a game within its bracket June 25, 26 and 27.

The bracket winners will move on to semifinals June 28, with regional finals played June 29.

Big 33 Football Classic

Davidson’s Heitzman helps lead Ohio to win

By FRANK DiRENNA ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Ohio’s domination in the Big 33 Football Classic in Hershey, Pa., on June 18 had a local flavor.

Ohio rolled to a 50-14 win over the Pennsylvania all-stars, amassing 432 yards in total offense.

The 54th game of the series featured five players from central Ohio.

Led by defensive end Keith Heitzman of Hilliard Davidson, the Ohio defense allowed 243 yards, including minus-8 yards rushing.

Heitzman, who also played fullback and on special teams, capped the scoring with a 1-yard touchdown run with 3 minutes, 47 seconds remaining.

“It was a ton of fun,” Heitzman said.

“Our defense came out strong and was able to get pressure on them right away. We forced them to make some mistakes.”

Heitzman helped set the tone early as his pressure on Pennsylvania quarterback Matt Johnson led to Gabe Gilbert’s interception on the game’s first possession.

Heitzman sacked Johnson in the second quarter, leading to a Pennsylvania punt from its end zone.

“Playing against the best I’m hoping will prepare me a little bit more for what’s to come at (the University of) Michigan,” Heitzman said.

Heitzman was joined by Davidson teammate J.D. Detmer, who handled the kicking and punting duties.

Detmer, who will play at the University of Toledo, converted six extra points and punted once for 38 yards.

He missed on field-goal attempts of 46 and 28 yards in the first quarter.

Hartley’s Noah Key, who rushed for 2,885 yards and 42 touchdowns on 338 carries last fall to share the Division IV state Offensive Player of the Year

award with Kenton quarterback Maty Mauk, played in the secondary for Ohio.

“This was a real honor,” said Key, who will join Detmer at Toledo. “You get to see all the guys you see in the paper every week with your name. You get a chance to meet these guys, and I will be playing against a lot of these guys in college. There (were) actually seven of us on the team from Toledo, so we’re building that early bond.”

Key led Hartley to the Division IV state title last season with a 34-13 win over Chagrin Falls in the championship game.

Hawks coach Brad Burchfield said playing in the Big 33 game was a tremendous opportunity for Key and the Hartley program.

“I know obviously the history of the Big 33 and how prestigious it is to have players selected to play in that game,” Burchfield said.

It was sort of a homecoming for Wor-

thington Kilbourne’s Matt Skura, who grew up in Fox Chapel, Pa., and began attending Kilbourne as a sophomore.

“Playing against the best competition in Pennsylvania and even the best competition in the nation, it was a great way for me to end my high school career and start my college one as well,” Skura said.

Skura, who will play at Duke University, saw time at center, guard and tackle in the Big 33 game.

“He’s been a tremendous leader, setting the example for the kids on the way things should be done,” Kilbourne coach Vince Trombetti said. “He’s never taken a day off. He’s done a great job representing our program.”

Westerville Central graduate Nick Vannett, who will play at Ohio State, saw time at tight end and wide receiver in the Big 33 game.

“I’m proud of Nick, not only because of his accomplishments on the

field, but also I’ve had people tell me what a class act, what a gentleman he is, and to me that’s just as important if not more important than his football abilities,” Central coach John Magistro said.

University of Cincinnati recruit Akise Teague had three touchdowns and 168 total yards, and was named the Ohio team’s MVP. Teague was voted Ohio’s Mr. Football last fall, leading Youngstown Ursuline to its third consecutive Division V state championship with a 51-21 win over Coldwater.

The game also featured the Big 33’s longest interception return for a touchdown. Ohio State recruit Doran Grant (Akron St. Vincent-St. Mary) intercepted a Jalen Fitzpatrick pass and returned it 101 yards for a 28-7 lead in the second quarter. fdirenna@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

CAP CITY Continued from page B1 Jayshon Jackson (Grand Rapids Community College), the district’s Division I Offensive Player of the Year, capped the drive with a 2-yard touchdown run.

“We really executed our offense in the first half, but I think we got a little bit too conservative in the second half,” said East coach Jeff Pharion, who is the head coach at St. Charles.

“We kept it simple with schemes and blitzes defensively, and we executed very well.”

The West only crossed midfield twice in the first half.

Whetstone running back Jordan Mitchell (Urbana) made it 14-7 when he reversed field and scored on an 18-yard run with 11:35 left in the fourth quarter.

The Cap City game began as the City League All-Star game in 2008, but Anthony Murphy, one of the organizers in conjunction with Capcitypreps.com, wanted to get players throughout central Ohio involved. Players from the City, Central Catholic and Mid-State leagues

and the OCC were added, with Interstate 71 as a dividing line.

The name of the game was changed last summer, when the East beat the West 22-0.

“Last year we had kids from Olentangy Orange becoming friends with kids who live on (Columbus’) west side in the ‘Bottoms’ and picking them up for practice,” Murphy said. “The guys really build relationships out of this and it goes deeper than football.” www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

BASEBALL eight RBI for the Golden Bears, who finished 7-17.

Representing Thomas are seniors Kirby Boehm (C/1B), Matt Hofacre (INF/P) and Wes Lindenmuth (INF/P) and junior Ben Miller (SS/P).

Boehm batted .417 to lead the Cardinals, who finished 16-10.

Rounding out the roster are seniors Austin Green (OF) and Joe Traini (OF/C) of Watterson, which finished 16-8, and junior Tom Scantland (C/1B) of Kilbourne, which finished 14-12.

All of the pitchers are right-handed.

“We’ve got six or seven pitchers and we’ll run them all out there and let them get some work,” Pfeil said. “We’ve got confidence they can do the job and can improve along the way.

They’ve all been receptive to coaching, which is a great thing. In fact, I can say that about the entire team.

“I think that’s why the strength of this team is its overall approach. Everybody is improving and we are paying attention to details and fundamentals of every part of the game.”

SOCCER Continued from page B1 cer Association National Championships on July 27-31 in Phoenix.

Ohio Premier Eagles club director Chris King said teams need to do more than play well to win a Regional Cup. They also need some luck.

“You have to play well and find a way to win against great competition, but a lot of this comes down to luck,” said King, who helped guide the Ohio Premier U-13 girls team to a regional championship in 2002. “In the closer games, you may need to have a few bounces or a referee’s call go your way.

“The luck of the draw is an-

other big factor because teams aren’t seeded at regional and there have been a lot of years where the top two or three teams in the regional end up in the same bracket of pool play, and some of the better teams get eliminated early on.”

Local teams that won State Cup championships to advance to the Regional Cup are: the Classics Eagles U-13 boys, Team Ohio F.C. U-17 boys, Team Ohio F.C. U-18 boys, Crew Juniors U19 boys, Ohio Premier Eagles U-13 girls, Ohio Premier Eagles U-16 girls and Ohio Premier Eagles U-19 girls.

The Ohio Premier Eagles U18 girls squad qualified as a representative of the Midwest Re-

gional League and the Team Ohio F.C. U-16 boys team qualified as a State Cup tournament wildcard.

This will be the third appearance for the Team Ohio F.C. U16 boys, Ohio Premier Eagles U-16 girls, Ohio Premier Eagles U-18 girls and Ohio Premier Eagles U-19 girls, and the second appearance for the Team Ohio F.C. U-17 boys.

“Any of us have a chance to win it,” Team Ohio F.C. club director Steve Dawson said. “If you have good coaching and have kids who stick together and play well together, you can compete at the regional level.”

“It’s all about how much improvement you can make in the offseason. Truthfully, the high school season is so short, and when you have two straight weeks of rainouts, you really accomplish very little.

“You really need to make your jump in improvement during the summer.”

Team Columbus, which has no league affiliation, was 8-8 overall after competing in the Nischwitz Memorial Tournament on June 1719 in Dayton.

“We’ve been pleased with the overall play of the kids,” Pfeil said. “The pitchers are throwing strikes, our defense is making plays and getting the ball across the diamond, and we’ve been swinging the bats pretty well.

Don’t let thieves spoil your vacation First, it’s great that you are aware of the risks and are seeking ways to protect yourself before you become a victim. It’s much easier to take precautions now than have to restore your identity and reputation later.

Being away from home and in unfamiliar places could bring increased risk to consumers, opening doors to thieves. More purchases than usual are made this time of the year, as well, so additional withdrawals might go unnoticed until you get back to home base.

Your identity could be stolen in a number of ways, including loss or theft of your wallet, purse or credit card; stealing your mail or taking documents from your trash; skimming information from the magnetic strip on credit or debit cards; giving personal or financial information over the phone to strangers; or hacking into your computer.

If you are catching up on paying bills or doing any online shopping while you are on vacation, be sure you are using secure web-

sites. Be careful in stores to protect your wallet, purse and credit cards and watch to be sure store GABRIELLE personnel hanWHITTAKER dle your credit card properly. Also watch out for people hovering near you or using a camera phone.

Being extra aware of your surroundings and always being organized also make you more focused and alert so you can spot potential problems. Keep receipts for all purchases and check the receipt against your credit card or other account statements to be sure it is accurate.

Signs that indicate your identity has been stolen include unauthorized charges on your creditcard statement or on your checking account; unauthorized transfers or withdrawals on your bank statements; accounts on your credit report that you did not

open; calls from a collection agency, asking why you have not paid a bill; and calls from a financial institution about an account you did not open.

If you become a victim of identity theft, contact the financial institutions or companies where the information has been used to alert them of the situation. Also contact the police and a creditreporting agency and request that they place a fraud alert on your account. Keep records of whom you talk to and summaries of conversations.

Many financial institutions offer identity-protection packages. You’ll have no better time to safeguard your identity than before you head out for a summertime vacation.

Sean Zielke, a freshman at Bishop Watterson High School, recently earned the rank of Eagle Scout.

He is a member of Troop 169, which is based at Our Lady of Peace Church. Zielke is the son of Katie and Ron Zielke of Clintonville.

For his Eagle project, Zielke designed and built a baseball-softball scoreboard for OLP’s DeSantis Field. The design contains built-in storage for the hanging numbers and also can be closed like a cabinet when not in use.

Zielke also landscaped the fencerow near the diamond, using a variety of bushes and fresh mulch. The project took more than 220 hours. He was helped by other troop members as well as friends and families.

Zielke dedicated the scoreboard to his good friend, Seth Jenkins, who passed away last year.
