Conner Prairie, Ritz Charles to create new venue

news@currentinwestfield.com Conner Prairie and Ritz Charles have announced a partnership for the creation of The Bluffs at Conner Prairie partnership – a $3 million investment to renovate and expand Eli Lilly’s historic Chinese House on the grounds of Conner Prairie.

The Bluffs at Conner Prairie will serve as an event venue on the bluffs of the White River with occupancy for 250 people for events such as wedding ceremonies and receptions, social galas, corporate events and holiday parties.

“The renovated Chinese House will provide guests a great connection to Conner Prairie’s past and a gateway to our future,” Conner Prairie President and CEO Norman Burns stated.

“Visitors will get to experience Eli Lilly’s former retreat and his love for Chinese culture while having access to nature, views of the White River and a beautifully renovated space for their events. Revenue generated from this partnership and new space will allow Conner Prairie to continue providing unique and innovative experiences for our members and guests for years to come.”

Ritz Charles will have exclusive operating rights to provide food and beverage services for the event venue. A majority of Ritz Charles’ funding supports the construction and renovation of The Bluffs at Conner Prairie.

“We feel incredibly fortunate to partner with Conner Prairie on the renovation of Eli Lilly’s historic Chinese House,” Ritz Charles President and co-owner Bill Nicholls stated. “When you

combine the natural beauty of the land, the compelling history of the house and the new renovations we have in store, the new Chinese House will be a truly unique event space for weddings, receptions, corporate meetings and other special events.”

The Bluffs will be enclosed with glass on three sides. Work should be complete by Jan. 31, 2019. The original Chinese House was built in 1907 by the Atkins family on land owned by William Conner. Lilly purchased the home in 1940, when he served as president of Eli Lilly and Company. He used the home as a family retreat.

Lilly wrote in diaries that the ceilings of the Chinese House were painted with “gorgeous Chinese symbols.”

Lilly also wrote, “On the dining room ceilings bloomed the twelve flowers of the months of the year.” He then added other Asian elements and furniture.

Two Lilly doctors originally from China proposed a name for the house, “Shen Ho Shi,” which means “House of Sylvan Harmonies.”

“With more than 115 combined years of providing positive customer experiences between Ritz Charles and Conner Prairie, this team looks forward to offering a new venue for Hoosiers and people from around the country alike to book special events,” Ritz Charles Vice President and co-owner Mark Safranek stated.

Additional support for the project comes from Jay and Nancy Ricker, the founders of Ricker Oil Company, Inc.; a grant from the Lilly Endowment Inc.; and several other private donations.

HSE gets ‘innovative’

By Renee Larr • news@currentinfsihers.com

Hamilton Southeastern High School recently began offering a schools new course, Innovations. It teaches future-ready skills, problem-solving, effective communication and collaboration to prepare students for college and beyond. Assistant Principal Douglas Harter is searching for new and interesting concepts for the course.

“I was looking for something where we could teach the students a process they could use when they are faced with a challenge,” Harter said. “Then they could utilize that process to better come to a solution.”

The City of Fishers and HSE schools participated in a brainstorming session, Design Thinking, facilitated by Mark Caswell from KSM Consulting. Harter approached Caswell about teaching the concept to Innovations students.

“He spent four days teaching the students the process,” Harter said. “It’s an approach that typically business owners use, although it doesn’t just have to be business. This is really broad enough to be used in other fields. It’s a problem-solving process or approach to meet a challenge and then come up with a solution.”

Harter wants eventually to involve the Indiana Internet of Things lab in Fishers.

“They have one studio that is dedicated

to Design Thinking,” Harter said. “I asked if they would be open to have the students come to the IoT lab next year and have this training done there, or if they can utilize the space if they have projects to do with different area businesses. They said absolutely.”

HSE is piloting the course and wants to petition the state to have it approved as an official course.

“We’re trying to set our students up for success,” Harter said. “We’re trying to prepare them for a future world that we don’t know what jobs will be there. We want to give them those opportunities.”

Fishers Farmers Market returns

By Noah Alatza • news@currentinfishers.com

The Fishers Farmers Market presented by IU Health Saxony is unthings to do der way. The family centered market includes live entertainment, children’s activities and fresh local produce. It opened May 5.

More than 60 full- and part-time vendors sell everything from baked goods to handcrafted jewelry, as well as Indiana-grown produce and flowers.

Each week, the first 100 shoppers receive a free, reusable tote bag.

“We are really working on expanding our reach to the audience and getting in front of residents and families to make sure they know about the event,” said Kara Hall, marketing and public relations manager for the city. “As a city we strive to be smart, vibrant and entrepreneurial, and this is the perfect avenue to show our mission.”

Hall said a market will still be held June 30 during the new Spark!Fishers summer event, which runs June 29-30.

“All of our vendors and booths will still participate in the market that day,” she said.

“Some of the additional vendors will stay longer with the Spark!Fishers vendors.”

The city also plans on hosting three themed market days, including Biz Kidz Day July 14.

“This is a great way to showcase some of our youngest and brightest residents,” Hall said.

The Health & Wellness Expo Aug. 4 will ensure access to different types of health care, Hall said. The Fall Harvest Festival

Sept. 29, the last day of the market, will be autumn-themed.

All markets in May and June will be on the east side of City Hall, 1 Municipal Dr., in the Nickel Plate District because of construction on the new concert venue.

Hall said when the AMP in the district is complete, the market will move back to the “original home.”

“We’re proud to work with Indiana vendors and local entrepreneurs who truly make Saturday mornings in Fishers a vibrant and welcoming experience for residents and visitors,” Mayor Scott Fadness stated in a press release.

Additional parking is available in The Flats at Switch and The Depot garages to the east and west of City Hall.

The market is open, rain or shine, every Saturday from 8 a.m. to noon through Sept.

29.

Government center delayed

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com After a May 9 joint meeting between Hamilton County commissioners and the Hamilton County Council, the county county has decided to put the expansion of the government and judicial center in downtown Noblesville on hold.

Bids for the project were higher than expected by approximately $300,000, prompting county leadership to delay the project.

The Hamilton County Council approved funding for the $24 million-plus expansion in early April - $12 million from bonds, just over $1 million from the courthouse fund, and nearly $11 million from the county’s general fund.

American Structurepoint, Inc. has been contracted to plan and design the expansion that would centrally house all Hamilton County government offices in the building. Currently, the offices of auditor, assessor, treasurer and recorder are in the old, historic courthouse in the center of the downtown Noblesville square.

According to American Structurepoint, the expansion would make the space us-

able for the next 25 years by adding 130,000 square feet to the existing layout, with added space on the lower level and a threestory upper shell and core floors.

The current government and judicial center was built in 1992 and was projected at the time to fill the county’s needs for 20 years. Twenty-six years later, the commissioners and council agree more room is needed.

Some parts of the project, including design, planning, utility relocation and more, are still ongoing.

memorial day memories Veterans remember those lost, encourage citizens to celebrate correctly this month

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com On Memorial Day, Kyle Fisher will remember Terry Ball, cover story his best friend while serving together in the U.S. Marine Corps. Ball was killed by an IED explosion in Iraq in 2005. Fisher, post commander for Fishers American Legion Lowell Beaver Post 470, said Ball saved his fellow Marines by jumping onto the IED. Although Fisher and his fellow veterans understand the significance and meaning of Memorial Day, others across the city and the nation may not be as aware that it is a solemn time to remember the sacrifices of the fallen.

“I think when 9/11 happened, Memorial Day became just like any other day to celebrate every veteran,” Fisher said.

“That’s not bad, but I think people who didn’t serve think it’s a time where every veteran should be celebrated, and I don’t think that’s the case myself. Memorial Day is about those who gave all, who died sacrificing their lives for this country. I don’t think people mean to disrespect, but the true meaning of Memorial Day has gotten away from what people think.”

One specific memory Fisher has is that after Ball was killed, Ball’s wife, Jennifer, asked Fisher to take Ball’s 10-year-old son to the store to pick up a jungle gym that the family had ordered.

“A story I always think about is after he passed away, Jennifer asked if I could take Gavin, his oldest son, to the store because they bought a jungle gym set for the backyard, and she asked if I could go pick it up for him,” Fisher said. “I had Gavin in the truck and he said, ‘You know, my dad’s a superhero, right?’ And I said, ‘He sure was.’”

Post Chaplain Charles Warren remembers that when he was a youth, there always was a parade on Memorial Day that would end at a cemetery, where Warren, his mother and his sister would decorate graves of family members. Warren spent 30 years in the U.S. Army.

“Every Memorial Day growing up, we would go to the parade,” Warren said. “My dad was a World War II vet, so my mom would take me and my sister to the parade and then go to the cemetery.”

One reason Post First Vice Commander Dan Jacobs thinks the significance of Memorial Day is lost on much of the general public is because of the lack of celebrations on the day itself, which is May 28.

“I see a lot of what’s happening now is the government and other entities,” Jacobs said. “I don’t know if they feel obligated to do something on Memorial Day or they don’t want to be bothered on Memorial Day, but they hold celebrations the week before. That’s what (government) has gotten away from. In the past, Memorial Day was actually observed on Memorial Day.” A group called the American Legion Riders from Post 470 ride motorcycles and place small flags on the Fishers graves of those who lost their lives while on active duty. The post then hosts a lunch for its members on Memorial Day, reads the names of the Legion members who died the previous year and observe a moment of silence.

“We just gather, and it’s a day of remembrance,” Fisher said.

the city celebrates memorial day The City of Fishers will hold a Memorial Day celebration at 10 a.m. May 28 at the Liberty Plaza at Central Green on 116th Street and Municipal Drive.

The ceremony is free and open to the public.

- Kyle Fisher starting at a young age American Legion Lowell Beaver Post 470 Chaplain Charles Warren said one way adults can learn to celebrate Memorial Day correctly is by getting involved early. The post sponsors Boy Scout Troop 303, which performs flag-burning/disposal ceremonies at the post.

“It’s cool because those young men get the feeling and get an idea of how important the flag is to the country and carry that through the rest of their lives,”

Countdown to emptier nest

o b s e r v ation Just what we need

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker Mick Jagger famously reminded us that “You can’t always get what you want.” The catchy pop tune penned by Jagger and his longtime collaborator Keith Richards reinforces a simple point, one that should have been committed firmly into our collective psyche by early adulthood yet manages to elude us even decades later. Life, it seems, is filled with unrequited hopes and desires.

We balance competing priorities, often spanning extreme poles, always living in compromise. Our desire to enjoy a placid domestic life stands in contrast to our fantasy of following Hemingway to an endless sea of adventure. Few of us can afford to drive a monster truck, exotic sports car, custom classic and stylish sedan – we have to pick one, or maybe, if we are lucky, two, and go with it.

As the years pass, we settle comfortably into our choices. Still, can we hope to reconcile our imagined lives with the ones that we are actually living? Can the fantasy compete with the reality?

What if The Rolling Stones had asserted “You don’t always want what you get” instead of positing their now-famous musing? Many of us must wonder if we are in command of our own expectations sufficiently to unequivocally know what it is that we want. Would it be more honest to admit that we too often wait for life to deliver itself to us – and then we react to it.

If ours is an existence of abundant compromise, should we embrace the choices we’ve made or, instead, live in eternal regret over the paths not taken? Or, do we ultimately find that life gives us just what we need?

Current erred on candidate listings To our readers: A number of you pointed out, quite correctly, that our pre-election coverage in the May 8 editions of Current was missing candidate information. It was not an effort to exclude any candidate or candidates. Instead, we unfortunately dropped the ball on the news-gathering front,

and for that we sincerely apologize. In the aftermath of the errors, we have put in place a refreshed system to ensure all candidates’ information is included for every election, as had been the case since Current was launched in 2006.

READER ’ S V I E W The case for Girl Scouts Editor, At Girl Scouts, we know girls are the key to our future. Gender balance is vital in ensuring that every voice is heard and every outlook is considered. One of the best things we can do to ensure the longterm strength of the United States is to invest in girls.

Women bring an invaluable perspective to careers in places like the courtroom, the science lab and the caucus room. The United States government is comprised of a significant number of Girl Scout alum. In fact, 76 percent of senators, 57 percent of representatives and 100 percent of secretaries of state were Girl Scouts, while 90 percent of all women astronauts and 80 percent of women tech leaders are Girl Scout alum.

Girl Scouts is the best leadership ex-

perience for girls. Girl Scouts are emboldened to travel to destinations near and far and encouraged to pursue outdoor adventures from camping to whitewater rafting.

Research shows that girls learn best in an all-girl, girl-led and girl-friendly environment where their specific needs are addressed and met. Our program bolsters the benefits of school curriculum by fostering a safe, inclusive environment where girls gain hands-on skills, including STEM activities, and take on leadership positions. In fact, the all-girl environment is one of the major keys to our success.

My baby is home from college! For the next 102 days. I know because I checked.

And I may or may not have started a secret countdown to his departure in humor August.

It’s not that we don’t love our oldest, who just completed his freshman year at IU. He’s generally kind and funny and interesting to talk to. But we’ve gotten so used to not having him around that when he returns, everything seems out of whack.

For starters, he uses a lot of space, both physically and audibly. He’s 6-foot-3 and loud, and mostly unaware of either. On the car ride home, my youngest commented on his incredible ability to hijack the minivan with his person and stream-of-consciousness-like chatter: “Mom, I can’t get away from him! Every time I turn up the music, he purposely raises his voice.”

To fuel that large frame and chattyCathyness, our oldest consumes millions of calories a day. I’d reduced my major Meijer runs to once a week, but we are already out of milk, bread and Kraft products. He’s been here less than 24 hours. Sweet mercy, our grocery bills are going to take a major hit.

And finally, though it doesn’t sound like a big deal to reduce a family of six by one teenager, it is. We enjoyed an entire school year of one less kid to keep track of and lose sleep over. Now that he’s back in sight, he’s unfortunately back in mind. And I’m not prepared to worry about four children again!

My baby is home from college for a 102 days. Wish me luck.

Peace out.

O brother, where were thou?

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie My column a few weeks ago was about a longtime friend. Now 92, Keith Bratton lives in a retirement community humor in Fishers. I recounted some of his unique inventions over the years, like a urinal splash guard with Osama Bin Laden’s photo. Current in Fishers ran the article as a front-page feature.

The column was posted on a Facebook page viewed by Sarah Erdman, the daughter of Ron Bratton of Fort Wayne. Sarah forwarded the article to her dad, wondering if Keith might be a relative. When Ron read about Keith, he was pretty sure this was his long-lost half-sibling. He had never previously mentioned Keith to his family.

It had been 68 years since they last saw each other, if they had ever met at all.

Keith’s mother passed away when Keith was about 24. His father remarried, and Ron was the offspring from that relationship. The more than two-decade gap in age, coupled with Keith’s entry into the Army, resulted in a subsequent failure to connect.

Ron was planning a trip to Indy and included a stop at Keith’s senior community.

Ron approached the front desk and asked if

Imagine your home, totally organized!

there was a Keith Bratton living there. The receptionist was appropriately cautious.

“Are you a relative?” she asked.

“I think I may be his half-brother,” said Ron, which sounded a little suspicious.

However, Ron was allowed entrance.

Keith was told he had a visitor, but no other clues were given about the mystery guest.

Ron introduced himself, revealing their relationship. Keith responded with a zinger: “What took you so long?”

As they reminisced, the phone rang. It was Keith’s daughter, Kim, who lives in Florida.

“So, what are you doing?” she asked.

“Visiting with my half-brother.”

“I didn’t know you had a half-brother!”

As I interviewed Keith for this story, I asked how sure he was this whole thing wasn’t a scam. Then, I got a befitting wisecrack from him: “Why would anyone admit to being my brother … if it weren’t true?”

Angelman syndrome event set

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Amanda Moore had no idea what Angelman syndrome was fundraiser until one of her adopted twin sons was diagnosed with it in January 2017.

Moore and her husband, Adam, saw Jackson, who turned 3 years old May 12, appeared to be having seizures and also was sick with a temperature of 102 degrees.

“We took him to Riley where they did an overnight EEG, and the neurologist there had some experience with Angelman syndrome so he suggested we do the testing to determine if that is what it was,” Moore said. “We found out two weeks after that with a confirmation of the genetic test.”

His twin brother, Baden, is not affected.

The twins were adopted at birth.

Angelman syndrome is caused by the loss of function of a particular gene during fetal development, resulting in severe neurological impairment present at birth and lasting for a lifetime. Symptoms vary and include severe developmental delays, speech impairments, seizures and walking and balance disorders.

Moore, a Fishers resident, is director of

Moore said the syndrome affects one in approximately every 15,000 children.

A new street-level office for Imavex has opened in the heart of downtown Fishers at 8770 North St. The office is part of a $47 million redevelopment project approved by RELOCATION the Fishers City Council in June 2016 for the new RQAW headquarters. The space for Imavex is finished but the remainder of the project is expected to be finished this month.

Imavex, an internet technology and digital marketing firm, was founded in Carmel in 2001 before moving 3 1/2 years later to Noblesville.

Longtime Fishers residents and Imavex co-founders Gerald Stanley and Steve Burzynski said they want to contribute to the community.

“We have always wanted to live, work and play in this community,” Stanley said. “With all of the exciting events in downtown Fishers, we like what Mayor (Scott) Fadness is doing, and we want to be a part of it.”

With nearby technology firms such as Launch Fishers, Burzynski said the city’s established groundwork made sense for the company to relocate.

“With downtown Fishers and the plans for renovation, it just made sense to make the move now,” Burzynski said. “Then timingwise, it worked out great because we were coming towards (the) end of our lease in Noblesville.”

Stanley said he and Burzynski brainstormed ideas on how best to give back to

the community before coming up with a summer artwork awards ceremony.

“We embrace a lot of talented designers and artists,” Stanley said. “When we moved to Fishers, we wanted to start something we could do each year and annually.”

Imavex, in partnership with RQAW, will launch the Fishers Art Contest & Scholarship Award. Hamilton Southeastern High School and Fishers High School juniors, seniors and recent alumni will have the opportunity to submit artwork for scholarship awards and prizes. Winning art will be displayed at Imavex and RQAW’s headquarters during the July 13 Nickel Plate Arts Crawl.

“We are trying to encourage kids to go to school and use their talents and continue to fan that flame of being an artist,” Stanley said. “We did not want to be like every other company, and this is a good way to start us.

Steve and I have that desire in our heart to make a difference.”

Miller to bring standup routine to The Palladium

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Dennis Miller is a man of many mediums.

Right now, Miller is doing comedy two weekly PodcastOne shows, a weekly TV appearance, and a syndicated twice-daily radio spot called the “Miller Minute.”

On top of that, Miller, 64, is on a standup comedy tour, which includes an 8 p.m. stop at The Palladium in Carmel May 18.

“I started a sports podcast three months ago and I got people (who) say they like the podcast but I don’t like sports,” Miller said. “So, the guy asked me if I want do the events. I’m learning even if it’s a stream-of-consciousness you have to provide some structure to it. I lack the structure now but I’m working on it.”

Miller, who had his own talk show for several years, has weekly appearances on “Kennedy” on Fox Business Channel.

Miller, a conservative, previously was a regular contributor on Bill O’Reilly’s “The O’Reilly Factor.”

“I just go on because she (Lisa Kennedy Montgomery) makes me laugh,” Miller said.

“When O’Reilly got fired and that went away, I wasn’t hearing any other calls from anybody else on Fox, so I’ll go on ‘Kennedy.’”

Miller rose to prominence as an acerbic anchor for “Weekend Update” on “Saturday Night Live” from 1985 to 1991.

The standup tour is in advance of a TV comedy special for a producer, who plans to syndicate it.

“I’ve worked it out in an hour and 10 minutes,” Miller said of his routine. “I got to prune 10 minutes for the special but it’s not a lab rat situation. I got it down.”

It won’t all be political.

“Two-thirds of it is just jokes I want the audience to get belly laughs out of,” Miller said. “But once you’ve done ‘Weekend Update,’ you have to pay some attention to current events, and that’s what people have come to know you for. So, two-thirds is about making them laugh about the world we live in and one-third is about the current political times. If you live in times when you have (President Donald)

CCP sets 2018-19 schedule editorial@youarecurrent.com The Carmel Community Players have announced a 2018-19 season with five productions. “Forever Plaid,” a musical directed by Sandy Baetzhold and Rich Phipps, will run from Sept. 21 to Oct. 7 at The Cat Theatre, 254 Veterans Way, Carmel.

The first show of 2019 will be “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change,” a musical comedy, which will be Feb. 22 to March 10 at The Cat. Dee Timi will direct.

The Tennessee Williams classic drama “A Streetcar Named Desire” is slated for April 26 to May 5 at the Cat and will be directed

by Brent Wooldrige. The season will close with “Failure to Zig Zag,” which will be July 19 to 28 at The Cat. The drama will be directed by Susan Rardin.

Trump and (Nancy) Pelosi and you’re not going up on stage and commenting on that, I think even clowns in the circus are doing jokes on that now.”

After taking a break from Twitter for two-plus years, Miller uses Twitter to gauge how some jokes fare.

“I put up a joke a few weeks ago about Trump coming to California and he was booed, and, quite frankly, for Trump to be received warmly in California, he’d have to come in illegally,” Miller said. “I got like 58,000 likes. At that point you can tell you got a good joke. I do think Twitter gives you a once-removed idea if something is a good joke or not. Again, it’s tough to gauge because the country is so polarized now, some people wouldn’t laugh at

anything.”

Miller came to Indianapolis a few times to see the Indy 500 with his late friend Andy Granatelli, a legendary car owner.

The comedian also visited during his stint as a “Monday Night Football” color commentator in 2000 and 2001. Miller said the first year, 40 percent might have liked him on MNF and 60 percent hated it.

“Over two years I think I got it up to the mean line, which I considered a success,” Miller said.

In addition to his TV talk shows, Miller had a syndicated radio show from 2007 to 2015.

“Eight years and three hours a day for five days a week, I was talked out,” Miller said. “I was sick of me.”

Sun King announces restaurants editorial@youarecurrent.com Sun King Brewery has announced the four independently operated local restaurants that will fill the food hall brewery inside its Carmel tap room and distillery, which is scheduled to open this summer, according to a press release Sun King’s food hall will feature four, 100-square-foot food stalls designed to invoke the spirit of the Monon Railway inside the 15,000-square-foot tap room. Each unit will house a small kitchen, service counter and menu boards. Following are descriptions of the restaurant concepts and menu offerings: BEAST: Offering gourmet burgers and hand-cut fries crafted with quality, locally sourced ingredients. The Sun King Carmel tap room and distillery will be BEAST’s first brick-and-mortar location.

La Margarita: Currently operates a location in Indianapolis’ Fountain Square neighborhood. Among the menu items will be chorizo tacos featuring Mexican ground sausage, creamed corn poblano aioli, queso fresco, cilantro and onion served on blue

corn tortillas.

Oca: This is the second Oca restaurant to open in a Sun King Tap Room. Developed

by Chris Eley, owner of Indianapolis’ Goose the Market and Smoking Goose, the new Oca menu includes snacks like soft Bavarian pretzels with pimento beer cheese and charcuterie tasting boards as well as unique sausages and sandwiches. Fans of the Eley Batali sandwich, named one of the nation’s best by Bon Appetit magazine, includes three types of house salumi, spicy pickled vegetables, tomato preserves and provolone.

Pi: Operates a food truck offering handcrafted, brick-oven pizza and seasonal salads. Among the menu items will be the Indiana Corn Pi featuring garlic sauce, sausage, corn, spinach, caramelized onions, jalapeños and mozzarella and provolone cheese.

“Food halls are a growing trend throughout the U.S., where the number of them grew by nearly 40 percent in 2016,” Clay Robinson, co-founder of Sun King Brewery, said in the release. “Think of our new food hall like a food court in the mall, but totally modernized with local, independent restaurants serving diverse, fresh food quickly.”

HSE students create film

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Hamilton Southeastern High School senior Spencer Lawson got his idea for a movie while watching a couple movie of psychological thrillers over the summer.

“I then decided it would be fun to write one myself,” said Lawson, a member of the school’s Olio Road Productions club. “So, I set out trying to make a psycho-thriller that was in my skill range and, unfortunately, more school-appropriate. When deciding what specific topic, I decided I wanted to write about dreams because dreams afford a level of surrealism that is unavailable in most mediums. While all previous Olio Road Productions movies have been grounded in reality, I wanted something that transcended modern conventions and allowed us as a club to experiment.”

“Iris” follows an ambitious high school student who attempts to study the nature of the nightmares infecting her school but has to fight against circumstance, memory and time as the line between dreams and reality blur. The official premiere is set for 7 p.m. May 18 at HSE’s Leonard Auditorium.

There will be a showing at 3 p.m. the same

day at the auditorium. Tickets are $5.

“Seeing my script be slowly transformed to the screen has been exhilarating, to say the least,” Lawson said.

Sophomore Avery Susemichel plays the lead character, Oliva.

“My character is very complex, and at times I struggled trying to figure out what her thoughts would be at the moment or how she would react at certain things,” Susemichel said. “Given the circumstances of the plot and how some scenes take place in a dream and some in reality, sometimes it would get confusing as to how I should act or how Olivia, my character, would act.”

Ruins of Devin Castle, near Bratislava, Slovakia. (Photo by Don Knebel)

The Maiden Tower at Devin Castle Commentary by Don Knebel Devin Castle, a few miles from Bratislava, Slovakia, provides a spectacular view of the Danube River Valley. Its travel popularity is enhanced by a romantic legend about an ancient tower.

In the first century, the Danube River formed part of the northern border of the Roman Empire. To keep watch on the Germanic tribes across the river, the Romans built a tower atop a 650-foot cliff above where the Morava River flows into the Danube. In the ninth century, the Great Moravia, formed by uniting Slavonic tribes, built a castle on the site to protect its western border from the Germanic tribes that had overrun the Roman Empire. In the 13th century, the Kingdom of Hungary, which had taken over the territory of Great Moravia, expanded the castle to protect its western border from what was becoming known as Germany. Additional stone buildings, including a palace, were erected on the site, and the complex became known as Devin Castle. In 1809, after defeating Austrian

forces in the nearby Battle of Wagram, Napoleon ordered the destruction of Devin Castle as a part of his strategy of neutralizing potential threats. During the Cold War era, the area surrounding Devin Castle was lined with barbed wire to prevent residents of Czechoslovakia from escaping to Austria.

An octagonal tower, perched on a rock below Devin Castle, is named Maiden Tower after a story about an unnamed king who held his virgin daughter in the tower to separate her from her lover. Despondent, she leapt from the tower to her death. The Maiden Tower is an important symbol of Slovakian heritage and was featured on Slovak coins until Slovakia adopted the euro. The ruins of Devin Castle and Maiden Tower, with their network of intersecting walkways, are among the most popular and most photographed sites in Slovakia.

The month of May in Indianapolis is a wonder to behold. It’s time to converge on Indycar’s most grammar guy hallowed site, the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and people can’t wait to hear the most famous words in racing: “Drivers, start your engines.”

For years, we heard “Gentlemen, start your engines,” as every driver who qualified was male. But when Janet Guthrie became the first woman to qualify for the Indy 500 in 1977, the starting command became “In company with the first lady ever to qualify at Indianapolis, gentlemen, start your engines.” As that was (at best) an awkward sentence to utter, the next year (when Guthrie again qualified), the command was modified to “Lady and gentlemen, start your engines.”

As more female drivers have qualified over the years, the wording for the starting command has changed. And in 2017, IndyCar and NASCAR settled on this phrase for all races: “Drivers, start your engines.”

I like this change. It mirrors official

changes that have become acceptable in English usage. For instance, last year the AP Stylebook made a significant rule change, adding “they” as an acceptable singular pronoun. According to the AP, “They/them/their is acceptable in limited cases as a singular and-or gender-neutral pronoun, when alternative wording is overly awkward or clumsy.”

So, according to the AP, clarity is key here, primarily because the word “they” has always served strictly as a plural pronoun. But, as newer, experimental gender-neutral pronouns like “xe” and “ze” haven’t yet gained popular adoption or garnered widespread awareness, “they” is acceptable, as long as it’s clear to whom the writer is referring.

As culture and language drive each other forward, rules change. Regardless of who takes the checkered flag for this year’s 500, my son and I will be cheering for a good race with clean passes and no crashes.
