McFeely said that in previous annexations, 65 to 75 percent of residents chose to connect to city water within four years on average, with 80 percent connecting within seven years.

The bond includes more than $2.6 million for 36- and 16-inch transmission lines to serve Carmel’s west side and Meridian corridor. It also includes $1.6 million for a water main near 96th Street and College Avenue, $1.8 million for solar panels to be installed at two

The Carmel City Council recently approved a $17 million bond to expand and improve water service throughout the city.

INFRASTRUCTURE It includes nearly $9.5 million to bring city water to residents in Home Place and areas on the west side of town that don’t have city service.

“It’s the city’s goal to make water available across the city,” Carmel spokesperson Dan McFeely said. “There are still some areas not currently served, mostly in the Home Place area, but also some sporadic pockets of areas in the far east and far west parts of the city.”

The water line installation began this month and is expected to be complete in May 2021.

The city will charge $8,300 for Home Place residents to connect to city water. Residents will not be forced to connect, but those that do have up to 30 years to pay the fee and a 2.32 percent interest rate.

Carmel Utilities expects to repay the bonds through a combination of fees from homeowners that connect to city water, connection fees from new development and monthly water bills.

Carmel annexed Home Place in 2018 after a lengthy battle in court.

sites and $1.5 million to purchase the second floor of the Lurie Building, where Carmel Utilities is located.

“These are projects that are needed for now. I’m mindful of not taking on too much,” Carmel Utilites Director John Duffy told Carmel city councilors at a meeting in late 2019. “We do have other needs, but these projects get us to a good place in the next three to four years. It’s a good balance of not doing too much too soon.”

FLAT RATE EXPLAINED FOR HOMES WITHOUT METERS Peggy Giller has lived in her house near 96th Street and Michigan Road for more than 40 years, and she’s been happy with her choice to maintain the well that provides water to her home.

“Some people have put in city water, but they wanted the water,” she said. “I haven’t had any trouble with my well, so I’m not going to do anything about it.”

Giller receives sewer service from TriCo Regional Sewer Utility, which formed in 1975 to address groundwater problems in the Home Place area. Because she doesn’t have a water meter, Giller is charged a flat rate of $33.51 per month, no matter how many gallons she uses. As the only resident of her home, she has questioned why she is charged the same rate as a large family.

“I just don’t think it’s a fair situation,” she said.

TriCo Utility Director Andrew Williams said the board has had discussions about how to handle unmetered

users, and — although not a perfect solution — the flat rate makes the most sense.

“Without a meter we cannot know how much flow comes from a residence on a water well. When we looked at metered flows in one block of similar-sized residential homes in Home Place, the flows ranged from 2,000 gallons per month to 11,000 gallons per month,” Williams said. “We had also discussed tracking how many residents were in a house, but this would still be just an estimate of flow and very intrusive to our customers.”

The flat rate is based on the industry standard of a household using 7,000 gallons per month. Williams said TriCo’s flat rate is one of the lowest in the area. As of July 2018 in Westfield, for example, customers without a meter paid more than $55, no matter how many gallons they used, he said. Carmel Utilities customers pay a flat rate of $39.36.

Legislators recap bills ahead of short session

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com A group of central Indiana lawmakers met at Conner Prairie in Fishers Jan. 10 to discuss GENERAL bills they are proposASSEMBLY ing for the General Assembly’s 2020 legislative session, which runs from Jan. 6 to March 13. What follows is a summary of what each state senator and represetitive told the audience about some of the bills.

Republican Sen. John Ruckelshaus, 30th District, said he proposed a bill to fund a study to find the state’s average teacher pay compared to neighboring states and the entire U.S. “Where do we rank among all of those?” Ruckelshaus said. “What is the number we need to aspire to?”

Democrat Sen. J.D. Ford, 29th District, co-sponsored a teacher-licensing bill with Ruckelshaus that repeals a provision that demands teachers accumulate professional growth experience points through externships to renew their license.

Republican Sen. Victoria Spartz, 20th District, said she has proposed legislation to champion deregulation for schools and businesses.

“I’ll tell you, it’s much easier to regulate than deregulate,” Spartz said.

“But I think it’s important.”

Republican Sen. Jim Buck, 21st District, wants to require political parties to nominate candidates for the U.S. Senate, governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state and attorney general in a state convention instead of a primary election with a bill he sponsored. He said running for office has become too expensive, often leading to gubernatorial races that require candidates to spend millions of dollars out-of-pocket.

“I’m just concerned that we’re getting to the point where ordinary people can’t run for office because they can’t afford it,” Buck said.

Republican Rep. Chuck Goodrich, 29th District, said he wants to pass

a bill that eliminates the income of a student in a work-based learning program or internship from affecting the benefits their family receives.

Republican Rep. Jerry Torr, 39th District, said he doesn’t have many bills that will make headlines, but he is co-sponsoring legislation with Goodrich and Republican Rep. Donna Schaibley that allows judges of the Hamilton Circuit and Superior Courts to jointly appoint an additional magistrate.

Schaibley, 24th District, introduced a bill concerning health care costs.

“I think all of us, businesses, people, individuals, are dealing with the exponential cost of health care,” Schaibley said. Her bill would require the governing board of a nonprofit hospital to hold public, semiannual meetings explaining measures the hospital is taking to make health services more affordable.

Republican Rep. Tony Cook, 32nd District, co-sponsored a bill that decouples testing from teacher evaluations.

“I’ve always thought that was unfair,” Cook said. The bill would remove the requirement that a school corporation’s annual performance evaluation plan for teachers be based, in part, on objective measures of student test scores.

Republican Rep. Todd Huston, 37th District and House Speaker-elect, said his role has changed, and as a result, he wrote only one bill. But he stressed that the area is “represented extraordinarily well” by the lawmakers in attendance.

“It’s a privilege to serve with these folks,” Huston said.

BZA denies senior home

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals Jan. 9 unanimously voted against granting any DEVELOPMENT variances to allow Willow Haven Senior Home to build a 12-bed memory care facility in west Carmel.

Proposed on 1.3 acres at 13145 West Rd., Willow Haven Senior Home was proposed as a home for people with light to moderate memory care needs.

Willow Haven Senior Home owner James Miles said it would provide an option for families who can’t afford in-home care but don’t want to send their loved one to a large facility.

“This is a new offering that doesn’t fit neatly into the city’s current zoning code,” Miles said.

The board said little before voting against the project, but some members said it appeared to be more of a rezoning issue than one that

should be handled through multiple variances.

“It’s something the city council should be overseeing and not us,” board member James Hawkins said before the vote.

Nearby residents had a lot to say.

Nearly 20 people gave public comments, with almost all of them speaking against the project.

“If these residents don’t need (advanced care), basically what we’re doing is putting up a sorority or fraternity, which I don’t think this is zoned for,” said Bob Flint, who lives near the proposed site.

Veterans court grows in Hamilton County

By Sadie Hunter Sadie@youarecurrent.com

Numbers in one area of Hamilton County’s court system are rising in a positive way.

Since its founding in MILITARY late 2015, the county’s Veterans Court, under the direction of Superior Court 3 Judge William Hughes, has helped nearly 75 military veterans struggling with mental health or substance abuse issues who have faced various criminal charges.

Veterans Court is available to any Hamilton County veteran charged with a crime who was honorably discharged and whose case has been approved by the county prosecutor.

Veterans Court provides access to medical, mental, alcohol and drug treatment and rehabiliation services.

Hughes said identifying veterans isn’t always easy. It’s not something that is asked when the court is collecting demographic information, and Hughes said offenders rarely share that they’re veterans. But a recent change that compares a Veterans Affairs database against the state’s court case management system is helping veterans learn about the program.

Former Marine Cpl. Kyle Reynolds was among the first class of graduates from Veterans Court, spending more than two years in the program.

Arrested five times in three years for charges stemming from alcohol abuse, Reynolds’ attorney referred him to the program before it technically began.

“For me, the point of Veterans Court was to keep me out of jail,” Reynolds said. “I think if you told anyone they had an alternative to going to jail, they’d check it out.”

A Noblesville native, Reynolds graduated from Noblesville High School in 2008, and joined the Marines immediately after in June 2008. In 2012, he was medically discharged following a car accident that left him with a traumatic brain injury, loss of cen-

tral vision in his right eye and other injuries.

“I was paralyzed in my arm for a year, and of course all the mental aspects that come with a traumatic brain injury I was trying to deal with, too — impulse-control issues, emotional instability issues,” he said.

While he was still in the hospital, Reynolds’ Marine Corps command began medical separation paperwork.

“Between the brain injury, blindness in my right eye and paralyzed arm, they felt like there was nothing I could offer the Marine Corps and nothing they could offer me,” he said.

“That stuck with me for a long time.

Drinking only increased after the car accident.”

At first, Reynolds admits he didn’t take Veterans Court seriously. It wasn’t until the second phase of the program when he said he began to come to terms with his issues.

Hughes said the only things that can keep a veteran out of Veterans Court are an unwillingness to take part in the program or a dishonorable discharge from the military.

“We found out that Hamilton County, at (the start of Veterans Court), had the second-largest VA-connected population in the state of Indiana,” Hughes said. “We didn’t realize that, so we figured there was probably a need.”

declined to share their contribution but said the split is 50/50 for the athletic trainer.

A typical day for a police officer can include everything from hours of sitting in a car to chasing a suspect on foot while wearing heavy police gear. Those scenarios and others can lead to officers suffering acute and chronic pain, most often in the back, CPD Chief Jim Barlow said. The new program is designed to provide infor-

mation to prevent injuries and offer quick treatment if they occur.

Barlow said the program should lead to officers missing less work, and he expects to pay less overtime costs to cover shifts missed because of injury.

“The healthier and more fit we can keep our officers, the better service we can provide our community,” Barlow said.

CPD is renovating a third-floor room at its headquarters to provide space for its full-time athletic trainer. The program is offered at no cost to officers and is expected to be fully running in approximately one month.

Carmel-based Methodist Sports Medicine already offers athletic training to fire departments and it wants to expand the service to other law enforcement agencies in the future.

Rosenberg said it made perfect sense to start with CPD. “They are our hometown police officers, and we couldn’t think of a better place to roll out this program,” he said.

A popular song, written in 1944 during World War II, “Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive,” was PLAIN TALK a big hit recorded

by Perry Como, Bing Crosby and The Andrews Sisters, written by Johnny Mercer and Harold Arlen.

The words are just as relevant today as they were when they were written: You’ve got to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, latch on to the affirmative, don’t mess with Mister-in-Between. You’ve got to spread joy to the maximum, bring gloom down to the minimum.

I thought of this song recently while reading an article in the Wall Street Journal entitled, “For the New Year, Say No to Negativity.” It suggested going on a low-bad diet to eliminate the negative effect, the tendency for bad events and emotions to affect us more strongly than positive ones.

How do you feel when someone criticizes you? Notice how that feel-

ing lingers longer than when you are praised?

Studies show that older people are typically more content than younger people because they’ve learned how to improve the “positivity ratio” in their lives.

Here are suggestions for your lowbad diet: • Do no harm. Avoiding bad is more important than doing good.

• Put the bad moments to good use. Override your bad reaction and look for a useful lesson.

• Capitalize on the good moments and then live them by telling someone.

• Remember the Rule of Four: it takes four good things to overcome one bad thing.

A Hollywood ending New movie honors late Vietnam War hero with Carmel ties

By Mark Ambrogi •mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel resident Laura Moore has been waiting more than two decades for a national audience to see the heroic story of William “Billy” COVER STORY Pitsenbarger.

“The Last Full Measure,” a movie Moore said has been discussed for 20-plus years, recounts the heroics of Pitsenbarger, who lost his life saving others as a pararescueman during the Vietnam War. It focuses on his father Frank Pitsenbarger’s quest to make sure his son’s memory was honored.

The movie will be released nationally in theaters Jan. 24.

Moore’s paternal grandmother, Alice Konz, married Frank Pitsenbarger in 1993 Moore after both their spouses died. Frank and Alice had grown up together in Piqua, Ohio, and reconnected after Frank contacted Alice following the death of her husband, Rodger. Frank and Alice had wanted to date when they were younger, but Alice’s parents wouldn’t allow it because he was four years older, Moore said.

“Frank was the grandfather I knew when I was growing up,” said Moore, a Carmel High School English teacher. “He embraced our family. He encouraged us to call Billy our uncle. I lived with my grandparents in Muncie when I was in college at Ball State. As soon as they got married, he wanted to be as much a part of Alice’s life as he can be. He loved how our family appreciated the story of his son.”

Billy was the only child of Frank and Irene.

“We grew to love Frank as much as he grew to love us,” said Joyce Terrell, Alice’s daughter. “He’s always said, ‘You would have loved Billy and he would have loved to be part of this family.’ It was important to Mom that even though Billy had passed away, he was part of our family.

We felt we knew him from Frank being with us.”

Frank died in 2002. Alice died Oct. 24, 2019, at age 97, but she did see two screenings of the movie before her death.

In one of the bloodiest battles of the Vietnam War on April 11, 1966, Billy Pitsenbarger, 21, was offered the opportunity to escape on the last helicopter out of a combat zone under heavy fire, but he chose to stay behind to save and defend the lives of his fellow soldiers, making the ultimate sacrifice.

“They said there were more than a dozen men they could directly credit Billy in saving,” Moore said. “But many reports (show) it could have been countless more he saved in getting them behind the line and keeping them safe.”

A cover-up prevented Pitsenbarger from receiving the Medal of Honor for 34 years, Moore said.

“There were a lot of high-ranking officials who didn’t want to admit the flaws that had happened and the direction they had sent people,” Moore said. “There was a great amount of miscommunication and no one wanted to admit to the error. Frank knew it and the guys who fought with Billy knew it, but they couldn’t get through the red tape.

“I watched his heart break every day. The medal helped, but it didn’t bring back his son. It helped kind of heal the wounds.”

Moore, 39, had her own special role when Pitsenbarger finally received the Medal of Honor on Dec. 8, 2000, at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton, Ohio.

“I got to be in the front row because I was training to be a photojournalist,” Moore said. “I was an official press photographer. I got to meet the Secretary of the Air Force and the parerescuemen.”

SPECIAL SCREENING Like his parents, Billy Pitsenbarger grew up in Piqua, Ohio, approximately 25 miles north of Dayton, Ohio. There are several tributes to Pitsenbarger in his hometown.

“The first time we saw the movie it was at Wright-Patterson (in March 2019), and that’s where Billy’s exhibit is hosted,” Laura Moore said.

The screening was for the family and some of the pararescuemen who served with Pitsenbarger.

“It was extraordinary the way the movie depicted people,” Moore said.

“Christopher Plummer was amazing.

He literally brought my grandfather back to life. The actors were so amazing in their study of people and the study of the story. They literally captured their mannerisms and the language they would use.”

The movie features Diane Ladd as Alice and several other well-known actors, such as Sebastian Stan, Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, William Hurt, Peter Fonda and Bradley Whitford.

“The movie was abandoned multiple times,” Moore said. “It was talked about so long, we thought of it as a concept. Now, it’s amazing because it’s seeing my grandfather’s dream come true and everyone will know his son’s story.”

Moore said through the many ups and downs, writer/director Todd Robinson and producer Sidney Sherman stuck with the project.

“They were adamant that the story was being told accurately and fairly and that it be told with the idea of remembering our veterans,” said Moore, who is planning a screening party for family and friends Jan. 25 at AMC Traders Point in Indianapolis.

“It’s different from other war movies because it’s not just about the battle and heroics, but it’s important to see how the awards and medals help not only those that die but those that are living.”

Moore said she was interviewed for a bonus feature she expects will be included on DVD. “I’ve been teaching about Billy ever since I entered a classroom in 2002,” said Moore, who is in her fifth year at Carmel High School after spending 10 years at New Palestine High School.

LETTER

Living well

Not seeing a climate catastrophe

Commentary by Terry Anker So, the aphorism goes: The only thing constant is change itself.

As our years on the planet rack up, we become more confirmed in the cliché. We communicate with each other differently. Texting, cellphones and email were inconceivable only a few years ago. We eat, travel and reside in an ever-evolving fashion.

The very expression of what it means to be a family, community and society is constantly being reimagined, contorted and tested.

And even the age-old “Dating Game” has entirely new rules. Kids and adults find each other via apps and chat rooms. It is a brave new world.

Yet, aren’t we still seeking companionship, love and relevance just like we always did?

Still, shouldn’t we challenge our accepted notions occasionally, not necessarily to overturn them, but to determine their applicability and validity? Are we living well? Are we living as we should? The examination of a life shouldn’t imply that the existing life is unworthy – often in review we discover that the patterns we employ, even while imperfect, are the very best choices available. Should our desire for change allow for a reinvestment in the existing standards and relationships? While many of us only consider “change” to mean a wholesale destruction of what came before, is it possible that our gnawing and unsettled lives don’t demand something new but rather a proper execution of and investment in that which we already have?

Editor, “Act Now” was a letter to the editor (regarding climate change in the Jan. 14 edition of Current in Carmel) that I read with bemusement. It’s unfortunate that Mr. Henderson has immersed himself in an issue that essentially doesn’t exist. He references the fact that he’s a “boomer,” so I’m sure that he is ignoring that this tirade has been going on for the past 50 years with nothing ever remotely coming true.

Certainly we have to be responsible citizens, but utilizing valuable ink and typespace in your paper on this topic is unnecessarily foolish.

One must only assume that as long as the rest of us don’t run out of money for his Climate Reality Project, he’d be a happy camper.

Resolute against self-improvement

317-564-8383 veracityiir.com 706 Pro-Med Lane, Carmel, IN

The 2020s have begun. I know I’m supposed to make New Year’s resolutions to better myself, HUMOR but I never do. I’m just not very good at self-improvement. There are plenty of other people out there who could resolve to make Dick Wolfsie’s life simpler and less stressful. For example: • Everyone who will ever be in front of me in line at Dunkin’ Donuts should resolve not to spend three minutes deciding whether they want the 13th doughnut to be chocolate creme or glazed blueberry. In 1979, I picked my future wife out of a crowd at a party in 90 seconds. Choosing a pastry should be quicker.

• My wife must resolve to quit bugging me about wearing my hearing aids. She nagged me for years to buy the darn things. She claims there’s no point in having them if I don’t put them in my

ears, like I had never heard that before.

• Cashiers should resolve to not look at my full name on my credit card and call me Rich. My mother called me Richard only when she was really annoyed with me. Our accountant once called me rich after grabbing someone else’s tax return by mistake.

• My friends need to resolve not to make fun of me for still having an AOL account. I know you Gmailers and Ameritech people think you are really hip. So, knock off the kidding or I’ll throw my flip phone at you.

• Scammers should resolve to not send me emails saying I have won a $100 gift card to Amazon or Walmart. I have not won a gift card. I have “won” the opportunity to answer 100 questions, and then maybe I have a chance to have a chance to win a $100 card if I sign up for periodic chimney sweeping or duct cleaning.

• Publishing companies must resolve to not send me renewal notices when I still have two years left on my subscription. I don’t keep track of this stuff, so I am now getting four copies of Time magazine every week.

• Fast-food places must resolve not to give me the senior discount unless I specifically ask for it. When the cashier sees my gray hair and wrinkles, I get 10 percent off. But then I go to Kroger for beer and I have to show my driver’s license, in case I’m a really mature-looking teenager.

I have some more resolutions on my list, but first I want you to resolve never to call me grumpy. Happy 2020 to all!

3 goals for transformation Commentary by John Karesh If you’re interested in improving your physical appearance, strength and conditioning, you FITNESS really need to do only three things to attain success. Don’t make things difficult on yourself. Consider: Start a resistance-training program You can join your local gym, hire a personal trainer, try Pilates, CrossFit or simply use a set of dumbbells and a bench at home. If you commit to at least two full-body training days per week, your physique will reap ample benefits. The key in resistance training will be doing a routine that includes legs, the major muscles in your upper body (chest; latissimus dorsi muscles, known as the lats, are the large V-shaped muscles that connect your arms to your vertebral column; shoulders, triceps and biceps) and core. The core routine would be exercises that train lower abdominals, side obliques, upper abdominals and the low back.

Start a cardiovascular program When starting a cardiovascular program, the main objective is training the heart muscle, and to do so you need at least 15 minutes of elevated heart rate continually. The

heart works hand in hand with your resistance training. The stronger your heart is, the more you will be able to push yourself on your weights or resistance. I recommend getting a heart rate monitor and training at about 55 percent to 80 percent of your maximum heart rate. Remember, you can do almost anything that will elevate heart rate to make this count. Simple things would be to go walking or biking, or use of a treadmill, a rower or an elliptical, among other options.

Improve your diet Diet can make or break a fitness program. Your diet doesn’t have to be difficult. Start with drinking water.

You want to drink roughly 50 percent of your bodyweight in ounces of water each day. The water alone can lead to weight loss. Cut out the sugars, lower carbohydrate intake, lower fat intake and eat plenty of vegetables. Most women will require between 1,200 and 1,600 calories per day, and men generally will require up to 2,000 calories per day.

BAE Latin Food to open

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com A new restaurant concept coming to Carmel started in a group chat of five restaurant, fiRESTAURANT nance and marketing professionals from China, Peru, Venezuela, Portugal and Indianapolis.

BAE Latin Food is set to open at 14580 River Rd., Suite 190, in February.

Co-owner and CEO Luis Beauperthuy said although the restaurant is ready to go, he and fellow owners Alberto Araujo and Michel Beauperthuy, who will serve as the Carmel restaurant’s general manager, are waiting for final inspections and food tests.

“We are Venezuelan immigrants looking for the American dream. This is a project that we started in the summer of 2018,” Luis said. “Our initial intention was to achieve a Latin/Asian fusion and start with China. Nevertheless, different circumstances, separation of some initial members and a magical coincidence of three of five friends (landing) in Indianapolis, we restructured (to create) BAE Latin Food.”

With a diverse menu that includes breakfast dishes as well as bombas (burgers), the restaurant also will specialize in pepitos (sandwiches made with baguette bread), parillas (grilled foods) and a variety of side dishes that include fried yuca, fried sweet plantains with cheese and more.

Luis said the restaurant will mix mostly Venezuelan, Mexican, Colombian, Peruvian and Argentinian dishes.

“We are three childhood friends who, after more than 30 years of friendship and more than 25 years of work experience, will come together to create and grow the BAE brand,” Luis said. “We don’t want to involve the economic and social situation which crosses our country of origin.

We are simply professionals who decided to cross borders, and despite the adversities and individual struggles, we are working to be better every day and merge our culture with the North American culture. ” Luis said the Carmel location is expected to be the first of many.

With plans to open at least four more restuarants by the end of 2021, work is being done to find a location in Noblesville to open by the end of the year.

Warm up with these winter whiskeys

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

editorial@youarecurrent.com

Fashion choices and wine and spirit selections become darker in the winter months, LIBATIONS and local restaurants and bars are joining the trend. Here’s a guide to navigating some of the best local whiskey selections in Hamilton County.

CONVIVIO ITALIAN ARTISAN CUISINE 11529 Springmill Rd., Carmel Customers may be more apt to think of ordering wine when dining at an upscale Italian restaurant, but Convivio Italian Artisan Cuisine’s Winter Old-Fashioned ($15) may change minds.

Convivio’s take on an old-fashioned is a punchy rendition of the traditional cocktail, combining a blend of the restaurant’s house-made gingercello, Knob Creek Rye, 1821 Apple Cardamom Shrub, Woodford Reserve Chocolate Bitters and a muddled orange garnished with a cinnamon stick and star anise.

The drink goes down amazingly smooth and warms you inside out.

Pair with a hearty serving of pasta.

For more, visit convivioindy.com.

1933 LOUNGE 9707 District North Dr., Fishers 1933 Lounge has an impressive bourbon selection. It offers four bourbon and whiskey flights with three-quarter-ounce pours of three different whiskeys. The bar offers a Bourbon Starter flight with Basil Hayden, Buffalo Trace and Noble Oak for novice bourbon drinkers for $14.

A Private Selections flight features Whistle Pig, Woodford and Knob Creek Rye for $19. The Director’s Flight features Rabbit Hole Dare-

ringer, Old Forester Statesman and Angels Envy for $21. For discerning drinkers, an Orphan Barrel Rhetoric Library flight features Orphan Barrel’s 23-year, 24-year and 25-year selections for $85.

Pictured above, the Private Selections flight has flavors of, clockwise from left, Whistle Pig Rye with a citrus nose and notes of vanilla, light toast pear and almond; Woodford Reserve with notes of honey, brown sugar, vanilla and a malted finish; and Knob Creek Rye with notes of butterscotch, cinnamon, bergamot and spearmint.

For a decadent splurge, try a glass of Whistle Pig’s 18-year rye for $81.

The libation has an elegance and balance for a well-rounded, softer whiskey. Order it neat with a side of ice to sample each flavor profile because ice or water will open the flavors.

For more, visit 1933lounge.com.

THE BROKEN BARREL 1156 Keystone Way, Carmel Nestled in a small room next to Wolfie’s Grill in Carmel, The Broken Barrel has a speakeasy vibe with its

wood tones, exposed brick wall and leather chairs. A lone television continually shows blackand-white classics with no sound, and swing music plays in the background.

The bar offers 95 kinds of whiskey and an expansive cocktail menu, and even new whiskey drinkers will find something they like, usually in the Dave’s Golden Rip-off ($9), a blend of Larceny Bourbon with Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur, lemon juice and an organic honey shrub. For seasoned whiskey drinkers, try a flight of Japanese whiskey for $40, which features 1.5-ounce samples of Nikka Coffey Grain, Nikka Coffey Malt and Nikka Pure Malt. Flights are generally served with a side of ice.

For cocktail lovers, try the Basil’s Dark Manhattan ($10) made with Basil Hayden’s Dark Rye, a velvety whiskey blended with port.

Corlew plays multiple roles

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For David Corlew, it’s a role of a lifetime. Or is it 12 roles of a lifetime?

Corlew plays 12 difMUSICAL ferent suspects in the Indiana premiere of “Murder for Two” at Actors Theatre of Indiana at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The performances start Jan. 24 and run through Feb. 16.

“I’ve never had to Corlew play and sing and speak quite as much as this as I’m playing,” Corlew said. “It’s nonstop.”

All of the voices have different accents and inflections.

“There is a lot of mechanical practice of going from one accent to another quickly,” Corlew said. “It’s been one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, and I can’t wait.”

Adam LaSalle plays the role of a police officer attempting to solve the murder of a famous author.

“It’s a dream show of mine,” LaSalle said. “We’re both playing piano throughout the show. We both have a challenge of carrying the show and passing it back and forth.”

LaSalle said he loved the play since the first time he saw it.

“I always wanted to play this part and, hopefully, one day play David’s role,” LaSalle said. “Having to worry about all LaSalle those voices and characters, David has more of the technical challenge. The piano is a good challenge for both of us.”

LaSalle, Corlew and director Tony Clements are all making their ATI debuts. LaSalle and Clements are based in New York and Corlew in Chicago.

Showcasing flirty dance moves

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Anna Zigmond is a huge believer that dance can connect people.

“The body lanTELEVISION guage and what we can convey through dance is totally unique,” she said.

So, the 2013 Guerin Catholic High School graduate from Carmel was a natural fit for “Flirty Dancing.” Zigmond, who lives in Los Angeles, appeared on the Fox TV show Jan. 8.

She danced with two men on a blind date. At the end, she picked one to go on a date with, but there was no love connection.

“The whole concept is people can find a romantic connection through dance,” she said. “All the lead up to dance days, I never saw these guys.

When we are doing the dances, we can’t talk to each other.”

Zigmond said she was amazed by the production of the entire show.

“It looks like ‘La La Land.’ It felt like

a fairy tale,” Zigmond said. “I think I was the only one in the entire series that had kind of a dance background.

Even the two guys I danced with had never danced before. One guy was a substitute teacher and one was a stuntman.

“We all had positive experiences. I got to work with professional dancers. My choreographer (Val Chmerkovskiy) is on ‘Dancing with the Stars.’”

Zigmond, a 2017 Indiana University graduate, is a freelance writer.

Warm-climate winners Commentary by Elizabeth Morse Arguably, we’ve had more than our share of warm days this winter. However, chilly days WINEderlust are here, and with that, I’ve got some suggestions to chase away those winter blues. Grapes grown in warm climates have distinct flavors that translate to wines that have warmth and a powerful presence. My picks for this month are available at Tasteful Times in Fishers.

From the Piedmont region in Italy, Angelin Negro, Nebbiolo. It smells like roses and tastes like juicy, ripe blackberries. This wine has the most subtle flavors of this bunch, but still offers nice structure with tannins that are evident ($17.99).

For my white wine lovers, try El Enemigo Chardonnay (Mendoza, Argentina), $25. Winemaker Alejandro Vigil is a master of chard, and this beauty is no exception. It reminds me

of caramel apples. Bright, tart fruit, but rounded with butterscotchy, salty flavors that linger.

Today’s winner hails from Jumilla, Spain. Clio is a big red wine (mostly monastrell with some cabernet sauvignon). It is a perfect match with steaks or lasagna. You’ll get a big, fragrant face full of red fruit and vanilla while your palate enjoys blueberries and toasty oak. Quantities are limited, so don’t dally ($34ish for your next special occasion). Cheers!

Shameless plug: Yours truly will be teaching some foodie wine classes each Wednesday in February at the new Fishers Test Kitchen. Please sign up to join the fun. Watch for details on Facebook.

The Italian House on Park Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 219 Park St., Westfield What to get: Fried ravioli Price: $9 Anna’s take: Stepping into The Italian House on Park is like stepping into a restaurant in Tuscany. I’ve never been to Italy, but I imagine The Italian House on Park is what it would be like.

Wooden shutters and soft red stucco walls create an enchanting, romantic atmosphere.

I sampled several items, one of which is the restaurant’s most popular: Fried ravioli for $9. The dish is hand-rolled pasta with pockets of ricotta, Parmesan and mozzarella cheese. The ravioli is dusted with chives and a Parmesan breading. The dish is served with a side of vodka sauce made in-house.

I also sampled the Caesar salad, a great choice for only $6. Romaine wedges are adorned with fresh-grated Parmesan, sliced onions, house-made croutons and a Caesar dressing, all served on a chilled plate.

My main course was lasagna ($16), a giant brick layered with beef, pork, sheets of pasta and cheese. It was soaked in red sauce (white sauce also is available) and was delightful and filling.

For dessert, try the tiramisu ($7), a portion as generous as the lasagna and just as delicious.

With its soft lighting and beautiful interior, The Italian House on Park would be ideal for a Valentine’s Day dinner. Make reservations now before it’s too late.

A fun fact: The Italian House on Park used to be a single-family home, and each family who has lived in the house has dined at the restaurant.

Suggested pairings: To pair with the fried ravioli, order a bottle of Banfi la Pettegola Vermentino ($36). Pair a bottle of Santa Cristina Pinot Grigio ($33) with the Caesar salad, a bottle of the Carpineto Chianti ($52) with the lasagna and enjoy a glass of Cooper & Thief Red Wine Blend for dessert ($10).

Behind bars: Liquid Love Affair Get it at 1933 Lounge, Fishers Ingredients: 2 oz. Stoli vanilla vodka, 1 oz. pineapple juice, 1 oz. passionfruit puree, .5 oz. lemon juice, Champagne, orange peel Directions: Shake ingredients with ice, strain into a glass, top with champagne and add an orange peel as a garnish.

If you design a space to look serene, then it should encourage you to feel rested and relaxed. The palette of colors, materials, forms and textures you employ should serve to reinforce the sense of the space you strive to create.

The master bathroom transformation shown here started with a fairly typical bathroom for its day. There was an oversized (often unused) tub adjacent to a relatively small shower stall.

The lovely oak vanity cabinets are too low for comfortable use, and the room is lit with a fabulous strip of exposed light bulbs above the stylish mirror.

Before-and-after look of a bathroom transformation. (Submitted photos)

The transformation process included swapping the locations of the shower and tub allowing for the creation of a much larger shower that incorporates a bench and a recessed niche. The frameless glass enclosure allows the incredible wall tile to remain fully visible. The new vanity is a comfortable height and includes a tower cabinet and framed mirrors.

The decorative lights are installed

Visiting Shakespeare’s birthplace Commentary by Don Knebel Every year, more than 2.5 million people visit Stratford-upon-Avon, about 100 miles northTRAVEL west of London, to honor William Shakespeare, who was born there and died there.

While in town, they can experience the brilliance of his works.

Stratford-upon-Avon, or simply Stratford, was a small village along the Avon River until 1196, when King Richard I granted it both a charter as a town and a charter allowing the new town to hold a weekly market.

The market town soon attracted merchants and artisans, some of whom became wealthy and built large homes.

No later than 1552, when he was fined for leaving rubbish on the street, John Shakespeare began renting a large house on Henley Street, part of which he used as a residence and part of which he used for his successful glove-making business. William

have looked when Shakespeare lived there, complete with his father’s glove-making shop.

Visitors to Stratford-upon-Avon can tour Shakespeare’s birthplace and the adjoining Shakespeare Center.

They can visit Holy Trinity Church, where Shakespeare was baptized and is buried. They can then attend a production of the Royal Shakespeare Co., which produces works of Shakespeare and works of contemporary playwrights.

Birthplace of William Shakespeare in Stratford-upon-Avon, England. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Shakespeare, the third of John’s eight children, was born to his wife Mary in late April 1564, the exact day unknown.

John purchased the house in 1574, and William lived there until he was 18, when he married Anne Hathaway.

William inherited the house from his father and rented it for use as the Maidenhead Inn. When Shakespeare died in Stratford in 1616 at age 52, the house passed to his daughter, and eventually passed outside Shake-

Reluctant word choice Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Have you ever seen a picture of yourself from an unusual angle?

Using the GRAMMAR GUY wrong word is kind of like that, even when it’s the trendy thing to do. Sometimes, we unknowingly use a popular buzzword regardless of whether or not we understand its meaning. I’d like to discuss a trend I’ve noticed when it comes to the use of the word “reticent.” People are starting to use reticent when they should be using “reluctant.” Let’s get it straight, shall we?

Reluctant is an adjective that means unwilling to act. We get this English word from the Latin “re” (against) and “luctari” (to struggle or wrestle). So, reluctant literally means to struggle or wrestle against something. Here’s an example: Because Steve always took good care of his things, he was reluctant to spring for

the AppleCare plan.

Reticent is an adjective that means disinclined to speak. Breaking it down into the original Latin, we get “re” (in this case, “re” means “once more” or “again”) and “tacere” (be silent). Reticent, therefore, means “to be silent again.” We get the word “tacit” from this Latin word. Here’s an example: Since Sheila’s such a humble person, she’s reticent to comment on her recent promotion.

I’ve heard someone say something to the effect of “I’m reticent to RSVP for Glen’s birthday party this year.”

In this case, “reticent” is not the right word to use. Instead, stick with “reluctant.”
