German Village Connections study

Home safety often an issue for seniors By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers A home-assessment project in German Village found that properties in the neighborhood could present some physical challenges for residents who want to stay in their homes as they age. Students in the occupational therapy program at Ohio State University visited seven houses in the neighborhood to determine steps homeowners could take to safeguard their properties.

The study was discussed July 14 at a meeting of the German Village Society’s long-range planning committee at the Meeting Haus. The committee has been researching the development of an aging-in-place program for the neighborhood. The students, who are in a master’s degree program, found that common scenarios or items, such as unsecured area rugs, can pose risks for seniors. The good news is some of the corrective steps are inexpensive and easy

to accomplish, said Meg Teaford, the professor in charge of the program and a German Village resident. They don’t have to be made all at once, she said. “The idea is to be mindful of them,” Teaford said. For example, flooring should be clean and without glare. Rugs need to be secured to the floor, something that can be accomplished with double-sided tape. Students found that many first-floor bathrooms were small and didn’t have

a shower or tub. Others had high, clawfoot tubs, which are difficult for the elderly to negotiate. Most bathrooms lacked grab bars and rubber mats, which could prevent falls. Lighting also is an important component of safe living, because seniors need four times as much light as younger adults, Teaford said. Appropriate lighting levels are needed near entrances from the outside, inside on stairs and in food preparation areas of the kitchen, the study said.

The study emphasized the need for improvements to home entrances, which sometimes are not easily accessible because of steep steps, small front yards and narrow sidewalks. “If you can’t safely get in and out of your house, you shouldn’t be there,” Teaford said. The students recommended that residents work with the German Village Commission, the local architectural reSee HOME STUDY, page A2

Stewart school expansion

Commission concerned about closing Pearl Street By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers Columbus City Schools’ plan to redevelop Stewart Alternative Elementary School recently met some resistance from the German Village Commission. Members of the architectural review commission, who were given an informal presentation July 12 on the district’s plan, expressed concern over the closing of a portion of South Pearl Street. District officials want to close the street so they can proceed with expansion plans at the school. Such a move would require moving gas and sewer lines and overhead utilities. “It’s one of those things we look at like demolition — once you do it, it’s done,” said commission chairman Jay Panzer. Panzer said in an email July 15 that closing a street represents “an alteration to the urban fabric of the community, the consequences of which can be unpredictable and long-lasting.” The closure would affect residents and businesses whose properties are adjacent to the school building, he said, as well as residents of German Village and the Brewery District who use Pearl Street.

Artist Jim Glover, a former illustrator for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, paints at the Dublin Art Fair on July 16. Glover is among 30 artists who will display their work at the German Village Art Crawl on Saturday, July 23, on Macon Alley.

30 artists to participate in Art Crawl By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers As a former staff illustrator for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Jim Glover was responsible for drawing animals and landscapes in painstaking detail. These days, he’s borrowing some techniques of impressionists while keeping true to his realism roots. “Just a few brushstrokes can apply the detail that’s not there,” said Glover, who, in recent years, has explored the medium of “en plein air,” a French phrase meaning art created in the open air. Glover, who lives on the Northwest Side, is among 30 artists participating in this year’s German Village Art Crawl, to be held from 6 to 10 p.m. Saturday, July 23, on Macon Alley. The original art will include oil paintings, jewelry, sculptures, watercolors and collages. Macon Alley will be closed from Frankfort to Whittier streets for the duration of the show.

German Village resident named to Pickerington development post By NATE ELLIS ThisWeek Community Newspaper German Village resident Joe Henderson last week was promoted to lead Pickerington’s economic development efforts after serving as the city’s lead development planner since 2005. Henderson’s advancement means that for the first time in nearly four months, Pickerington has a fulltime department director for the city’s business retention, expansion and recruitment efforts. Henderson, 31, was promoted by city manager Bill Vance to fill a position that had been vacant since Susan Crotty was placed on administrative leave on March 22 and terminated April 4. Crotty was paid a $75,000 annual salary at the time of her dismissal; Henderson will receive a $67,500 annual salary. “I’m excited,” Henderson said. “I have a lot of work ahead of me, but I’m ready for it.” See VILLAGE RESIDENT, page A2

If you go The German Village Art Crawl, presented by the German Village Business Community, will be held from 6 to 10 p.m. Saturday, July 23, on Macon Alley. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the gate.

Tickets for the Art Crawl, presented by the German Village Business Community, are $20 in advance and $25 at the gate. Information and tickets are available at the Meeting Haus, 588 S. Third St., or at germanvillage.com and www.gvbusinesscommunity.com. Several area restaurants will participate. The event also will offer demonstrations by artists and live music. Sherry Mullett, who co-chairs the event with Betty Garrett, said the lineup of artists is impressive.

“I think it’s competitive this year, and I think we have the best of what is out there,” Mullett said. “We have some very unique artists and some mediums we’ve never had before. More than half of the artists are new this year.” Glover will participate in the Art Crawl for the first time, something he relishes because of the community’s reputation for art appreciation. “German Village as a community has an art awareness you don’t find in other areas,” he said. Glover, 62, retired nine years ago after 33 years at the ODNR. He created images of plants and animals for park maps, brochures, posters and promotional displays. After some time, he moved into computer layout and page design, a less-fulfilling aspect to the job, he said. Art wasn’t always a passion for Glover.

possibility at this point,” Barnhart said. “We like being in German Village. As an organization, especially as an arts organization, we’re in a rare situation. We are a central Ohio arts organization, but we have a connection to a community. A lot of arts organizations don’t have that.” As a way to discourage any more gossip, the troupe issued a public statement to the German Village Society, which was circulated by the Neighbors4Neighbors newsletter. Carol Mullinax, a member of the troupe’s board of directors and also an actor, said she could not imagine moving from German Village.

“It is part of the fabric of Schiller Park,” she said. “When you’re standing there on stage and looking out on the audience, it is such a nice, welcoming feeling that makes you feel even more part of the community.” What could have fueled the rumor mill is the plan to change the Columbus Symphony Orchestra’s Picnic with the Pops venue from Chemical Abstracts Services to Columbus Commons in 2012, Barnhart said.

Continued from page A1

Continued from page A1 Vance announced Henderson’s promotion through a press release issued after the close of business on July 13. On July 14, Vance said he chose Henderson, one of 32 people who applied for the job, because of his “local knowledge, dedication and loyalty to the philosophies we’re incorporating into our development services efforts.” Vance and Violet Township director of operations Bill Yaple had discussed jointly employing township economic development director Joy Davis to handle economic development issues for both governments. That proposal was presented June 22 to Pickerington City Council’s planning, projects and services committee, which instructed Vance to provide more details of how the arrangement would work. Last week, Vance said a joint director remains an option for the future, but current projects being proposed to Pickerington warranted filling the city’s position immediately. “Those discussions with the township became bigger in scale and that’s going to take a lot more coordination,” he said. “In the meantime, the city’s got an increasing amount of development activity. Therefore, we needed to fill this vacancy.” In making his selection, Vance pointed to Henderson’s role in fostering recent developments, including the relocation of Pediatric Associates Inc. to an 11,500-square-foot office on Old Diley Road; Medina, Ohio-based Pride One Construction’s development of approximately 112 senior citizen apartments near Pickerington Pointe on the city’s northwest side; and Homestead Development Co.’s plans to build a 115,000-square-foot indoor soccer facility west of Hill Road Plaza along Refugee Road. “That’s $16 million in development Joe Henderson has had his hands all over,” Vance said. Henderson is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati College of Design, Architecture, Art and Planning. Prior to coming to Pickerington, he worked for two years at a private economic development firm in Washington, D.C. He said he intends to partner with Violet Township and the Pickerington Area Chamber of Commerce, among other entities, to spur local and regional development. “I’m excited to get back to my roots in development,” he said. “We’ve got so much potential here. We’re seeing new developments and we’re also seeing existing businesses fixing up their properties and revitalizing the area. “My goal, and the city’s, is to create a great business environment that existing businesses will be happy with and one that works well for the city, Violet Township and the whole area.” As city planner, Henderson was paid $53,000 annually. Following Crotty’s termination, he was assigned additional development duties and his annual pay was increased to $65,000. Vance said Pickerington will seek to fill the city planner position being vacated by Henderson by Aug. 1.

ACTORS’ THEATRE Continued from page A1 from the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department. Barnhart said three years are left on the current lease. The troupe, which performs for free, is funded by donations from the audience, grants and various other sources. “We have a 30-year history with German Village and Schiller Park,” Barnhart said. “There’s no reason we’d want to give that up and move to a different park.” Terri Leist, planning administrator for recreation and parks, said the department never tried to persuade Actors’ Theatre to relocate. “We’re very happy they’re tenants in our park,” she said

No vote was taken at the commission meeting. Carole Olshavsky, who oversees facilities and construction for CCS, and a team of architects told the commission that closing the street is necessary in order for the district to build a 16,500-squarefoot addition onto the west side of Stewart, which was closed last summer after a fire caused extensive damage to the building. Students were relocated to nearby Beck Elementary School. Preliminary plans call for the addition to cross Pearl onto the Columbus Maennerchor property, 966 S. High St. The school district intends to level that property and the Maennerchor is planning to relocate to the adjacent Dutch House. The project crosses two historic districts — the Brewery District and German Village — meaning CCS must receive a sign-off from both architectural review commissions. Olshavsky emphasized that the plans are preliminary and that the

district still intends to hold several community meetings this fall to seek residential and parental input. After that, architects will begin drawing up building specifications. The fire last July caused $1.5 million in damage to the Stewart building, Olshavsky said. Instead of closing it, the district decided to proceed with a renovation project that would bring it up to current standards while preserving the many classic architectural features, such as the tin ceilings, decorative woodwork and wooden floors. Stewart, built in 1874, is the oldest functioning elementary school in the district. It lacks several current amenities and is on one of the district’s smallest parcels of land. The addition would house a proper gymnasium, modern cafeteria and administrative suite. In addition, the project would also provide a one-acre multipurpose field, a 55-space parking lot and a 20,000-square-foot play area.

view board, to modify entrances while not compromising the historic character of the neighborhood. The visits were done over the spring. Ed Elberfeld, a member of the long-range planning committee, had his house inspected, and he said he was impressed by the team of students. “They were incredibly thorough,” he said. The discussion of the home assessments was folded into a greater conversation about German Village Connections, the proposed aging-in-place program. The committee has been laying the groundwork for the seniorcare initiative for about a year. On May 24, the committee sent out a survey to all 2,100 German Village households seeking feedback on the program. As of the June 15 deadline, the committee received 165 survey responses, submitted by mail and online. However, the committee decided to allow additional responses. As of July 6, the committee had received another 17 completed surveys, Elberfeld said.

Cheryl London’s dog, George, has cancer. The Clintonville resident fails to see any irony in that, even though she’s among those involved in research that seeks to determine if treatments which work on cancers in animals might have implications for treating similar cancers in humans. It’s not that London, who has a Ph.D. from Harvard, doesn’t recognize the ironic when it crops up in her life. It’s just that as a veterinarian, she saw a lot of cancer in pets and now as a researcher she sees even more. “We see it so much, I wasn’t even surprised,” London said of her dog developing the disease. And she’d very much like to be a part of people not having to see cancer in animals or people at all. “Cancer is cancer,” London said last week. “It’s a crappy disease on the human side and it’s a crappy disease on the pet side.” George, by the way, has been through chemotherapy and is doing fine, other than having to good-naturedly put up, as dogs will, with the sometimes rambunctious play of London’s young daughter. “George is a hound and he is not a smart dog, but he’s great with my 2-and-a-half-year-old,” she said.

at OSU and a member of the Molecular Biology and Cancer Genetics program in the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer-Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute. London and others in the program at Ohio State, as well as similar programs elsewhere, are involved in what is called “comparative oncology.” This doesn’t involve inducing cancer in mice and testing drugs to cure it, but instead devising treatments for cancers that develop on their own in pets. Viewing the different types of cancer — and there are dozens of kinds of breast cancer alone — at the molecular level enables researchers to pinpoint similarities between the disease in animals and humans. This work has the potential for speeding up the delivery of viable cancer treatments in people, according to London, in part because of how much more rapidly clinical trials can be started for pets. In part, too, dogs make better subjects for comparative oncology studies. For example, mice can’t throw up; they simply lack the mechanism. Dogs, as owners well know, can throw up, and sometimes seem to do so for the heck of it. This alone means dogs can

sea or vomiting, something that testing in mice would fail to reveal, London said. It’s one of the failings of what she called “mouse modeling.” “There are clear areas when we can contribute,” London said. Cheryl London was born in Boston. She earned her doctor of veterinary medicine degree at Tufts University, after which she spent several years in private practice in Maine, an experience that helped push her toward a career in research. “I saw a lot of cancer when I was in private practice,” she said. “I was just very interested in learning about cancer.” More than half of dogs who live to be 10 years old will get some form of cancer, according to London, with the rates varying widely, depending upon breed. “It you just look overall, it’s the most common killer of dogs,” she said. After spending some time as a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Pathology

the University of California, Davis. She was recruited to Ohio State in 2005 to help in building the “translational oncology program.” “I was really surprised when I got here at the depth of expertise at the cancer center and how metropolitan Columbus was,” London said. “The other big thing is that they really wanted to grow the program.” In addition to the expertise at the cancer center and the surprisingly metropolitan nature of Columbus, London said that finding a home in Clintonville was another factor that helped bring her to OSU. “I’m a New Englander,” she said, “and I came into Clintonville and said, ‘This is it: older houses, a walkable community.’ I like being able to walk to a coffee shop and feel like I’m in a city. I have just great neighbors.” OSU has 10 to 12 active clinical trials going on with dogs at any given time, according to London. The pet owners who participate in these are not charged,

ART CRAWL Continued from page A1 trator, as a youngster, Glover said, he didn’t show much interest in pursuing the craft. But in his early teens, a friend coaxed him into bird-watching. One day, an oriole swooped across the Lane Avenue bridge and landed within sight of Glover. “Something electric went off,” he said. “That connection happened. I thought, ‘Whoa, I could draw that.’” He studied art at Kent State and Ohio State universities with the rare goal of obtaining a job with the ODNR. “I was determined to be a wildlife artist,” he said. These days, his profession takes him across the country, from Maine to California. He travels with fellow Columbus artist Mark Gingerich. “It sounds like a vacation, but I work harder on our painting trips than I do at home,” Glover said. These days, Glover enjoys pursuing different media, taking classes and also teaching them. “I’ve undergone a real transformation since I left ODNR,” he said. gseman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Art Crawl adds even more charm to Macon Alley This weekend, German Village will host one of its most anticipated and beloved events — the Art Crawl on Macon Alley. Organized by the German Village Business Community, this event showcases local artists displaying their wares and talents in one of the village’s most quirky alleys. It’s a night of camaraderie, good music, food and, of course, a party like only German Village residents can throw. The Art Crawl has become a signature event for the German Village Business Community (GVBC), so it is a great opportunity to support our local businesses while enjoying a diverse crowd and art show. Think of it as the Short North Gallery Hop, but more intimate and much (much) more German Village. From Frankfort Street to Whittier Street, the Macon Alley garages become art galleries and studios. One such garage is already an art studio (Art at 185) and others have hosted mechanics and lumberyards in decades and generations past. Macon Alley may be home to the most eclectic group of structures in the village — a sprinkling of houses among garages and more industrial structures that front Mohawk and Fifth streets. But it is

an alley with its own identity, its own “gang” and its own meandering path to Schiller Park. Once called JODY Water Street, GRAICHEN Macon Alley is said to have been laid alongside a wandering creek. The street is quick to flood today, so I’ll add two plus two to get the four I want. The street name changed to Macon sometime before the 1920s, and it was likely in honor of a local dignitary. Few residences list Macon Alley as their address, but I know for a fact that those that do rank high in the village and make up for those who wish they had a similar address. But to satisfy those who aren’t lucky enough to live in or park on Macon Alley, the Art Crawl will show off all that Macon has to offer. The GVBC has done an incredible job of organizing and marketing the Art Crawl, and more than 30 artists will participate in an event meant to “paint the canvas of the Village.” Local musicians will provide entertainment, local shops, offices and restaurants will provide giveaways and

samples and local residences will add to the energy and vibe on the street. The Art Crawl is meant to celebrate all things local and in this economy, in our environment of big-box shopping, chain restaurants and online shopping, this means a lot. If German Village has anything, it’s an identity, and our local commercial enterprises add to and benefit from that. Since its earliest days, our little pocket of the South End has had a unique identity that showcased the people who called our brick buildings and streets home. Today, very little has changed and it is up to us to keep that local identity alive. So, plan to attend the Art Crawl on Saturday, July 23, from 6 to 10 p.m., rain or shine. Observe the talents your friends and neighbors and enjoy a pocket of the village you may not often frequent. Tickets are $20 in advance and can be purchased at the Meeting Haus or online at www.gvbusinesscommunity.com. They are $25 at the Art Crawl. Come and support local art, local businesses and German Village. And shop, dine and stroll while you’re at it! Jody Graichen is director of historic preservation programs for the German Village Society.

As it were

When building a capital city, first build a prison The first capital of the state of Ohio was located in Chillicothe. After a brief move to Zanesville, the capital returned to Chillicothe. But by 1810, the Ohio General Assembly was under more than a little pressure to move the capital to a place a bit more central. After looking at several places, the Assembly chose a site across from frontier Franklinton at the Forks of the Scioto and Olentangy rivers. They called the new town Columbus. Interestingly, the first public building erected in Columbus was not — as one might expect — the state capitol building. It was the state penitentiary. There was a decidedly practical reason why this was the case. The thrifty legislators planned to use prison labor to build the state’s new buildings and it would be useful to have a safe place to put them when their day’s work was done. The prison , where the cultural arts center is today. It is somewhat difficult to see what that area looked like two centuries ago. At that time, the two-story stone-and-brick house with a full basement stood at the crest of a steep slope that swept down to the river several hundred yards away. Built into the side of the hill, the west wall of the basement opened onto a large, fenced enclosure that served as the prison yard. The basement served as kitchen and service area for the prisoners, who lived in small huts built along the walls of the prison yard. Entering the prison through

its front door on the eastern street side of the building, one found oneself in the first-floor home of the ED warden and his family. A LENTZ prisoner entering the prison was lowered through a trapdoor in the floor to the prison below. From inside the prison yard, a stairway led to secure cells on the second floor of the stone house. Each day, the prisoners would sally forth from the prison to build a new capital city. By 1816, when the General Assembly arrived for its first session, a twostory brick Statehouse was completed and was complemented on Statehouse Square with a state

office building and a courthouse. A few years later, a rather plain frame addition to the state office building would house local government officials. A public markethouse would be located nearby. Most of these public buildings were at least partially constructed by prison labor, as would be the new Ohio Statehouse, which began to be built in 1839. Over the years, the prison expanded in size and its yard moved closer to the river. The arrival of the Ohio Canal and National Road in the 1830s forced the removal of the penitentiary to a new site at the corner of what is now Spring Street and Neil Avenue. While we know quite a bit about the work the prisoners did See AS IT WERE, page A5

Herbey’s ‘personal appearance’ would be sure to give him away because in addition to a dark complexion, his ‘wife in Ashtabula County had a scar on the right ancle and foot.’ Finally, there was Alfred Beason, alias Martin. Of him, the record simply said, “think he went out in 1835.” These brief descriptions tell us at least a little about some of the men who literally built the capital city in its earliest days. And one last note: For all of the confidence the writer in 1901 had of the Bertillon System and its superiority to old ways, it should be mentioned that two years later, in 1903, two men in Leavenworth Prison were not only found to have the same name but precisely the same measurements. Soon a new system — fingerprinting — would take the place of the “infallible” Bertillon method.

The Beat Arts, eats and fun in central Ohio

FAB 5 By Jim Fischer

jfischer@thisweeknews.com

This edition of the Fab Five starts with four pairs of shows, leading up to our interview with Dave Koz, who plays the Jazz & Rib Fest — itself a perfect pair if ever there was one. Summer season for resi-

1 dent arts groups:

A better show theme moniker might not exist than “Rhapsody in Zoo: A Gershwin Celebration,” which is on tap Friday, July 22, at JazZoo, the Columbus Jazz Orchestra’s summer concert series at the Columbus Zoo & Aquarium. The Gershwin tribute features Bobby Floyd’s take on Rhapsody in Blue as well as timeless classics like Someone to Watch Over Me and Embraceable You. Tickets are $27-$15, and include zoo admission. Call (614) 724-3485 or call the Jazz Arts Group about table reservations at (614) 2945200. We can still picture the red and black Atlantic Records logo on our 45 RPM of The Spinners’Rubberband Man. Other hits, like Working My Way Back to You and Then Came You found The Spinners deftly melding soul, disco and the Motown vocalgroup vibes. The group joins the Columbus Symphony Orchestra for its Picnic with the Pops concert Saturday, July

Gardening: Checking out the bio and MO of California rock-reggae quintet Tomorrow’s Bad Seeds, we were disinclined to buy in. But appealing melodies, adept singing and crisp, nifty playing quickly changed our tune. Check ’em out for yourself Friday, July 22, at The Basement — great stuff for a summer Friday night. Tickets are $10/$12. Call 1-800-745-3000. The Black Lillies are a new “old” country band, but not in the straight-up honky-tonk sense. The Black Lillies inspire and aspire, while embracing other Americana influences like folk and the blues. Led by singer Cruz Contreras, The Black Lillies will play Woodlands Tavern Thursday, July 28. Tickets are $10. Call (614) 299-4987.

The Spinners

23, on the lawn at Chemical Abstracts Service. Tickets are $20 for adults and $8 for children age 3-14. For tickets or other information, call (614) 228-8600. Guitar (demi-)gods: Ahh, the Nuge. It’s easy to forget any more that Ted Nugent is a guitar slinger par excellence. He knows from rock n’ roll riffing and maintains a stage presence as crazy as ever. He hits the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion stage Friday, July 22. Tickets are $25. Call 1-800-745-3000. Nugent contemporary Johnny Winter is as revered as the aforementioned Nuge — Winter for his blues guitar brilliance. Snappy licks, punchy progressions and a ferocious abandon make Winter the total package. He plays the Newport Music Hall, with local blues rockers the Frank Harrison Group, Thursday, July 28. Tickets are $20/$22. Call 1800-745-3000.

Tomorrow’s Bad Seeds

Oh boys: This last pair is a two-in-one, as the Schottenstein Center hosts New Kids on the Block and Backstreet Boys Sunday, July 24. For women who were in their teens/’tweens in the 1990s, give or take, NKOTB ruled the early part of the decade, while BSB assumed the boy-band mantle later. The Beat gets the appeal, especially if you turn the evening into a “relive the moment” party. Knock yourselves out, ladies. Did we mention the Glee’s Matthew Morrison is a special guest? Husbands: Let’s meet at the hardware store. Tickets are $92.50-$32.50. Call 1-800-745-3000.

Dave Koz is a busy man. He’s touring this summer supporting a new hit CD, Hello Tomorrow. He hosts two national radio shows. He does an annual Dave Koz & Friends holiday tour and also a Friends cruise. He’s a Global Ambassador for the Starlight Children’s Foundation, recently partnering with a Napa Valley winery on his own line of wines, the sale of which benefits the foundation. And he recently shot a video for his tune, This Guy’s in Love with You, in support of marriage equality. Somehow he managed to find time to visit with The Beat, and treated us like an old friend besides, also speaking — unsolicited — fondly of Columbus and his past warm receptions on stage here. “I love doing our Christmas show at the Palace,” he offered, adding, “I’m excited to be out on this tour with my band. It’s something we don’t do as often as maybe I’d like. “The Christmas show is more elegant,” Koz said. “Summertime and outdoor shows are about cutting loose and having fun.” Of the many irons he maintains in the fire, Koz said, none of it would be possible without the music. “It’s the thread that holds it all together,” he said. And while his greatest love is playing live, Koz told The Beat that making records is an important part of his creative process. Hello Tomorrow is Koz’s 12th studio recording, and captures his sense that the personal and global upheaval that the world is currently experiencing is the cusp of a significant shift moving forward. “The world has a lot of my music, which is a blessing,” Koz told The Beat, “so I feel like to make a record, I really need to have something to say. What’s going to be the impetus?” In this case, it was a song by his friend, singer-songwriter Dana Glover, which became the album’s title track. “It was like boom, there’s the concept,” he said. “Change is inevitable but there’s an unprecedented amount of it in everybody’s lives. People are disoriented and we can fight it or embrace it. That’s what this album was for me, to come out on the other side more comfortable with discomfort.”

Dave Koz

The 32nd annual Jazz & Rib Fest hits the Arena District riverfront July 22-24. In addition to sax-man Dave Koz, headliners include Christian McBride and the Inside, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Bobby Sanabria, Christian Scott Quintet and Carmen Lundy Quintet. A host of local and regional acts will also perform. Admission to the festival is free. Visit www.hotribscooljazz.org.

If music is the thread that connects Koz’s disparate interests and activities, the saxophone is the needle. An “awkward kid,” Koz had tried a few instruments before he discovered the sax in seventh grade. “It immediately became my best friend, a vehicle to express things I didn’t have words for,” he recalled. “It’s been the primary relationship in my life.” After graduating from UCLA with a degree in mass media, he told his parents he was going to give music six months to see what could happen and then he’d find a real job. In that time, he scored gigs with Bobby Caldwell and Jeff Lorber, who championed a record deal for the young sax-man. “You always have goals and you try to imagine where you could go,” Koz told The Beat. “But life has a way of unfolding the way it wants. It’s mostly just about being in that flow.” For more from The Beat’s interview with Dave Koz, read the BeatBlog at www. ThisWeekNews.com/blogs.

Comfort food, dramatic patio make Flatiron a destination I hereby decree Columbus to be New Patiotown. This is because not long ago, prime al fresco settings were a semi-rare commodity around our parts; these days, they’re as prevalent as backyard barbecues in July. Speaking of cooking out, you can add the Flatiron to the burgeoning list of pretty and cushy Columbus patios. Just a few weeks ago, this ’cue-happy and Big-Easyfluent Arena District staple unveiled a dramatic outdoor makeover that provides you with yet another reason to eat at this breezy, sophisticated and jazzy place. The first thing you’ll notice is the alluring aroma of meat sizzling over charred hardwood emanating from a nearby smoker. Then you’ll see the flowers, greenery and handsome urban-parklike scenery that distinguish Flatiron’s patio. Specifically, multiple planters rim its perimeter, flashing with electric purple and pink petunias. Just behind these are lush shrubs and shade trees. Also standing out — once you’re seated — is a neat

MENU by G. A. BENTON close-up view of the eccentric Flatiron building, an unusual thin brick wedge built in 1914. Flatiron’s Southern-style comfort food frequently announces itself in crackly fried cornmeal. This is the case with calamari ($9), an appetizer item overplayed in the entire nation but still worth ordering here. Flatiron’s were crispy, tender, not too greasy, awakened by chili flakes and scallion bits and served with a tangy remoulade. Mondays are Red Beans and Rice nights in New Orleans, and you’re likely to find that special here at the beginning of the week, too — but Flatiron’s ($11) actually outshine many Crescent City versions. It stars a seriously spicy, crisply seared, XXL-sized housemade

vorful soupy beans fragrant with green peppers and onions and ladled near very nice rice that retains a chicken stock flavor. If you don’t know about the incomparable Oyster Po’Boy here ($11), you should enrich your knowledge and life by ordering one. That beauty of a messy sandwich starts with a crisp, chewy and first-rate Eleni-Christina sourdough baguette. This gets packed with expertly flash-fried cornmeal-battered mollusks with lots of lovely oyster liquor still intact. The delicious ensemble gets dressed with a healthy smear of Flatiron’s remoulade sauce, plus all the expected fixins. Awesome. If meat more suits your mood, try the terrific Pulled Pork Sandwich ($9). Its By Jodi Miller/ThisWeek layers of big, bold flavors — from wood smoke and tender pig meat, from assertive Oyster Po Boy at Flatiron vinegar-and-mustard barbecue sauce and smoky andouille sausage that recalls a a rich slaw — will have you squealing huge link of devil-red Mexican chorizo, like a happy hog. minus the grease.

Mine were a Flintstones-big serving of juicy (if not super tender) meat slathered in a deep, dark and complex sauce — a thick and spicy glaze made with cooked-down cola, jalapenos and bourbon. The massive slab platter was further filled out by the finely chopped house slaw plus homemade fries. Flatiron regulars know to upgrade those potatoes to the Sweet & Hot fries. Other insider tips: The green beans are fantastic, as are many of Flatiron’s recurring daily specials — like a lusty Catfish with Tabasco Cream Sauce. For dessert, the enormous Custard Bread pudding ($5) has a lot of warm and gooey love to offer — and can easily feed three ever-more-happy people.

Tyler fires up wood-burning oven for new pizza offering Bryan Tyler wasn’t sure what to think of his pizzas, so he let the public decide. He put up a sandwich board outside of his Bread Basket shop in Reynoldsburg, announcing that free samples were available. “That brings them right in,” he said. The verdict: The recently introduced Naples-style pies are a winner. He praises his wood-burning oven, in part. He

and a friend installed the Forno Bravo brick oven themselves. Plus, they encased it in a stucco outer shell shielding layers of mortar, fiberglass insulation and insulated concrete. Using oak and ash woods, the oven burns at 700 to 800 degrees, cooking the pies in three to four minutes. The same fresh-tossed dough is used in the pepperoni and vegetable rolls, two of the more popular items in the store, 7516 E. Main St. There is no seating inside the bakery. The menu simple, offering four types of pizzas — classic Margherita, pepperoni, cheese and vegetable — that come in two sizes: the small, using 8 ounces of dough for a roughly 12-inch pizza, or the large, 16 ounces of dough producing a 16-inch pie, give or take. His simple, all-purpose sauce uses fresh tomatoes (while in season), garlic, sweet basil, kosher salt and pepper, cooked in the oven before being thinly spread across the dough. The toppings also are judiciously applied. “We’re trying to keep it simple,” he said. The finished product features a pie with a semi-thick, chewy crust, with the edges blistered by the heat. He said those who prefer thinner, crispier crusts can ask for them. Whole pizzas range in price from $5.50 to $7 for a small and $9.25 to $11 for large. They’re also sold by the By Lorrie Cecil/ThisWeek slice, $1.50 each. He experimented with different Bryan Tyler, owner of the Bread Basket, tosses pizza dough doughs in the beginning, making pizinto the air as he prepares one of his new pizzas on July 13. zas out of Italian and sourdough loaves The Bread Basket just added pizzas to the menu and uses a — the one he preferred — but cuswood-fired oven to bake them. To see a video, please visit tomers prefer the traditional crust. www.ThisWeekNews.com.

(Tyler said he might offer the sourdough option in the future.) It’s a major programming change for the Bread Basket, known for artisan breads, cookies and assorted baked goods. The place got its start in Gahanna six and a half years ago and later relocated to the Creekside development. Tyler opened the Reynoldsburg store in March 2010. He said he’s always had a desire to cook all of his breads in a wood-fired oven, so serving pizza was a natural progression. He’s also started cooking some of the breads in the oven, which leaves the loaves with a cracklier exterior. Yes, the process involves more time, because the bread has to be rotated, which is not an issue with a traditional oven. And then there’s the capacity issue, because the wood-burning oven is only 4 feet in diameter. “It’s definitely a labor of love,” he said. Tyler said he wants to begin offering pizzas at the Gahanna store, but those plans are on hold because of the financially troubled Creekside development, where Bread Basket is located. So he will wait to install new kitchen equipment until those issues are settled. The Bread Basket is open for lunch and dinner hours Tuesday through Saturday. For more information, call (614) 322-9587. Two Mad Dogs is central Ohio’s latest hot-dog joint. The restaurant, 9993 Sawmill Parkway in Powell, serves National Hebrew 100-percent beef dogs, boiled and grilled, and served with a choice of 12 toppings. (Foot-long hot dogs are made by National Deli). Most individual dogs cost less than $4 and signature franks are around $5.

Pediatric HealthSource

Abdominal pain is not uncommon in children Recurrent abdominal pain is very prevalent in children and adolescents, making it one of the most common reasons children are referred to a pediatric gastroenterologist, a doctor who treats problems with the digestive tract and liver. One common functional disorder that causes abdominal pain in children is irritable bowel syndrome. IBS is a gastrointestinal disorder that manifests itself as recurrent abdominal pain associated with changes in bowel movements. Children with IBS may have diarrhea, constipation or both. A typical symptom is bellyache around the belly button that usually goes away or gets better after a bowel movement. Between bellyaches, the child feels fine. The exact cause of IBS is unknown, but it is believed to be due to hypersensitive nerve cells that reside in the intestines and send messages to the brain. Stress, certain types of foods such as spicy or greasy foods, caffeine, chocolate or milk have been known to trigger IBS symptoms. Physical and emotional trauma can also play a role in the development of IBS. Some children with IBS tend to be more sensitive to stressful situations such as family conflict, moving, taking tests and issues with peers. Sometimes, triggers are never identified. Though IBS generally doesn’t lead to serious health problems, it may affect school attendance and daily function. It is important to consult your primary care physician to address the problem and rule out other reasons why your child may be having abdominal pain. Functional dyspepsia (indigestion) is another common functional disorder. Symptoms in-

clude nausea, vomiting, burping, decreased appetite, stomach pain and/or bloating. It is not associated with bowel movement changes. Indigestion usually happens infrequently, but be sure to monitor symptoms regularDESALEGN ly and consult your primary physician with concerns. YACOB Some other gastrointestinal problems that may cause recurrent abdominal pain are Celiac disease, gastritis and lactose intolerance. Your doctor will decide what labs and tests need to be done, based on the symptoms and physical exam. More serious diseases such as appendicitis, Crohn’s disease, inflammation of the pancreas, stomach ulcers and intestinal blockage will typically cause sudden and persistent pain with other associated symptoms such as severe vomiting, fever, bloody stools or significant weight loss. Diagnosis of any functional gastrointestinal disorder is based on a thorough history and physical exam, along with a few basic lab tests. Treatment may involve dietary and lifestyle changes and/or medication. Consult your primary care physician if you suspect your child may be suffering from any of these disorders.
