City leaders split on trees

Correction – In the Jan. 24 edition of Current in Carmel, the author of the Letter to the Editor titled “Denigrating another city is not beneficial” was not named. The letter was written by Karen Dyste of Carmel.

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com For years, city councilor Ron Carter disagreed with Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard about trees along the Monon Trail. The DEVELOPMENT two have been close political allies in the two decades they have served in office, but this is one issue Carter said they’ve never agreed on.

“The mayor and I have been at odds when it comes to trees along the Monon for the better part of a decade,” Carter said. “I remain firm that I don’t like to see the trees taken down, and my thoughts have been often ignored.”

Carter said he was surprised and disappointed to see a row of trees cut down along the Monon Trail near Main Street in early January to make way for the upcoming mixed-use development by Ritz Charles owner Chuck Lazzara. Brainard told Current the trees were cut down to make way for a public plaza.

“First of all, that was private property,” Brainard said. “Secondly, the city spends over a million dollars per year to plant trees. We plant lots of trees. Plus, we’re building on that property.”

City councilor Bruce Kimball, an advocate of cycling and trails, said he supports cutting down the trees if it means widening the Monon.

“The trail from Main Street south to just north of the fire station will be dramatically widened to accommodate a wide variety of uses,” he said.

Dispatches

Trees along the Monon Trail were recently cut down to make way for a new mixed-use development.

(Submitted photo)

“The plan is to gradually replace the scrub trees that have a very short life with longer living native species.”

The immediate plan is to create a Monon boulevard with a wider trail with designated space for both pedestrians and cyclists. There also will likely be one-way roads for motorists on either side of the trail. New trees will be planted.

Carter said the trees that will be replanted won’t be fully mature.

“I understand they will plant trees, but they won’t give us the separation of the urban hustle and bustle for the next 20 years,” he said. “The Monon will be far less comfortable in the name of progress. Much hotter, much less interesting, much less tranquil.”

City councilor Kevin “Woody” Rider agrees.

“We specifically do not want trees cut down along the Monon Trail,” he said. “I’m not happy about it.”

New miniatures exhibit – The Furnishing Touch, an exhibit that tells a history of American home furnishings in miniature, has opened at the Museum of Miniature Houses.

The exhibit, which runs through May 28, begins with The Mannerist style (1600-1700), and ends with the Colonial Revival style that started in the 1870s and is still found in popular home trends today.

2017 climate change issues – The Carmel Green Initiative will present a sustainable living seminar from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Feb. 15 at the Carmel Clay Public Library. Jesse Kharbanda, the Executive Director of the Hoosier Environmental Council, will provide information on how to protect the planet and how you can actively take part. For more information, visit CarmelGreen.org.

Bag bingo – Shepherd’s Center of Hamilton County presents Bag Bingo at 6 p.m. Feb. 16 at Brookshire Golf Club, 12120 Brookshire Pkwy. Tickets are $40 in advance or $50 at the door and include four bingo cards, appetizers and drinks. Cash bar will be available.

He said there’s a misconception that Carmel is going to spend time hunting down someone who posts their home once or twice on Airbnb for big events like the Indianapolis 500. Although he wouldn’t say that would be permitted, he said that’s not the focus.

“Our focus is on the ones who are regularly operating as a business,” he said. “These (homeowners) are making a considerable income, and some of them are not even living in the homes No legislation is being recommended in Carmel. City leaders instead will use existing zoning laws to prohibit Airbnb listings, but some councilors have suggested a limit on the number of days instead of a ban on the practice.

State legislature roundup

What does it mean for Carmel?

Compiled by Adam Aasen adam@youarecurrent.com The state legislature might consider several bills this session that could have an impact on Carmel. Here’s a look at a few: House Bill 1049 Authored by Rep. Mike Aylesworth Summary: Allows cities to pass ordinances to change municipal election dates from oddnumbered years to even-numbered years. This allows for the city elections to be the same year as congressional and/or gubernatorial and presidential elections. The bill states that any city that refuses to switch to even-numbered years will pay the county for the costs of having the election.

How it affects Carmel: Carmel has offyear elections in odd years, so the city would be affected if passed.

House Bill 1082 and House Bill 1131 Authored by Rep. Anthony Cook and by Rep. Edward Clere, respectively Summary: These similar bills state that redevelopment commissions must have a member appointed that is a member of the governing body of the school corporation.

How it affects Carmel: The Carmel Redevelopment Commission would need to appoint a member who also is a member of the Carmel Clay School Board.

House Bill 1118 Authored by Rep. Doug Miller.

Summary: This bill provides oversight of redevelopment commission spending by requiring a city council to approve all expenditures of a city redevelopment commission.

How it affects Carmel: Many of Carmel’s projects are led by the CRC, and currently only expenditures greater than $75,000 must be approved by the council.

House Bill 1133 Authored by Rep. Matthew Lehman.

Summary: Cities would no longer be able to ban short-term rentals, such as Airbnb. The bill has some exceptions, such as for public safety and noise complaints. Homeowners associations can still prohibit short-term rentals.

How it affects Carmel: The city recently sent a letter to all Airbnb hosts asking that they be rezoned as a commercial property if they wanted to continue. The Carmel City Council also is considering passing an ordinance about Airbnb and similar sites.

School district

A referendum supporting Carmel Clay Schools is set to expire at the end of the year, and the district’s superineducation tendent outlined at the Jan. 23 school board meeting why he believes it’s crucial for voters to approve a new one.

If a new referendum is not approved, Supt.

Nicholas Wahl said that CCS will be forced to cut 260 employees and reduce classroom and extracurricular offerings.

Voters approved a $14.5 million referendum in 2010 that increased school taxes by 16 cents per $100 of assessed property value. Wahl asked the school board to consider raising that amount to 19 cents in the proposed referendum, but he said property tax rates will remain stable at 83 cents — the projected 2017 rate — as the district is expecting a 3 cent reduction in its debt service rate.

“As we try to educate those who are making decisions about their children’s education, we’re looking to maintain what we do,” Wahl said. “Simply put, we’re looking to continue to do what we do best: high quality academic and extracurricular programs for the 16,000 students in Carmel Clay Schools.”

after state law changed so that schools only received state taxes to cover salaries and other day-to-day expenses. Before 2009, local taxes supported approximately 15 percent of operational expenses.

Through the state formula, CCS is the second-lowest funded district per pupil. It receives $786 less per student than the average school district in Indiana. Only Zionsville receives less.

If the referendum is approved by voters and the school tax rate remains at 83 cents, Wahl said CCS will still have the lowest school tax rate in Hamilton County by far.

The school board will consider a resolution at its Feb. 13 meeting that would set a referendum election for May 2. Learn more about the proposed referendum at www.ccs.k12. in.us/district/2017referendum.

Soccer team nets recognition

February 10 & 11

By Heather Collins • news@currentincarmel.com The Indiana Youth Services Association has named the Carmel High School boys varsity soccer team as IndiACHIEVEMENT ana’s 2016 Community Youth Program of the Year, with head coach Shane Schmidt earning the Community Education Award.

The team was recognized for its Make Good Decisions educational program that encourages youth to call for help in emergency situations and educates them on the dangers of underage drinking.

Schmidt was recognized for spreading awareness and raising funds for the Brett Finbloom Scholarship, named in honor of a former CHS soccer player who died of alcohol poisoning in 2012. The scholarship is annually awarded to a high school senior who advances the mission of the Make Good Decisions program.

The team created and sold Make Good Decisions T-shirts to promote the program. The Tshirts promote the Indiana Lifeline Law, which provides legal amnesty from prosecution for underage drinking to a person who calls or texts to report an emergency or crime.

Inglis co-chaired the campaign along with teammates Ethan Abbot and Grant Gold.

Within one week, the team placed three orders for a total of 450 T-shirts. The first two batches sold out in less than an hour.

“I rarely go a day in Carmel High School without seeing someone in the T-shirt, which is fantastic,” Inglis said.

Students wore the Make Good Decisions T-shirts during the Pack the House game Sept. 2, 2016. The game raised funds for the Brett Finbloom Scholarship. The team also gave 25 shirts to that night’s opponent, Ft. Wayne-Canterbury.

Bicentennial art given to city

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com The City of Carmel has a new work of art to adorn the walls of the Carmel Clay Historical Society. The piece was creatdonation ed by artists Bruce Loewenthal and James Bednarski.

It was donated to the city by Dawn and Mark Fraley and Steve and Sally Greenberg. Mayor Jim Brainard accepted the donation and loaned it to CCHS. The unique piece of art was created using 202 different pieces of reclaimed wood collected from eight demolished Indiana barns.

The artists branded different years on the pieces of wood with a branding iron.

The 10 rows of squares represent the generations who have built the state of Indiana during its history. The quilted look pays homage to the state’s agricultural background and the diversity of its residents.

The artists collaborated on the piece for two months and then placed it in the Carmel Arts Fair.

“It was James’s idea to do something together for the art fair,” Bednarski said. “We brainstormed over beverages and decided on a concept to pursue together. We refined and developed the notion and both contributed

design ideas. Together we participated in the execution.”

The piece celebrates Indiana’s bicentennial, which is why it was donated to the City of Carmel. Both families felt it was important to celebrate the milestone and Indiana’s rich history. CCHS will temporarily display the piece until a permanent home can be found.

The artists have previously worked together on other pieces using reclaimed wood from around the state.

MIND Diet Shown to Reduce the Risk of Dementia Now featured at Westminster Village North

Scientific evidence continues to show that diet can actually reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. A study by Martha Clare Morris, ScD, a Professor of Nutritional Epidemiology at Rush University has shown that the MIND diet can reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease by up to 53% and slow cognitive decline associated with healthy aging by as much as 6.5 years.

The MIND diet has been shown to support cardiovascular health and incorporate more of the foods linked to improve cognitive function.

Morris’ MIND trial followed 923 individuals between the ages of 58 and 98 over the course of 4.5 years. Participants were scored based on how closely they followed several recommended diets. The MIND diet was the most effective overall, as strict adherence showed an impressive 53% reduction in risk of Alzheimer’s disease and moderate adherence showed significant reduction in

Westminster Village North is located at 63rd and Sunnyside and offers residency options for independent living, assisted living, shortand long-term rehabilitation and memory care.

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com On his first trip to the mountains of northern Panama, Peter Beering was sold on his first sip. cover story The Carmel resident was visiting the mission owned and operated by his friend, Dr. Alan Handt, former chief medical officer at St.Vincent Hospital.

“I was served coffee by one of the indigenous folks who lived on the property and was blown away,” Beering said. “I called my wife (Shokrina) and said, ‘Let’s make a company and import Beering this and figure it out.’”

Thus, Mission Coffee was born 15 years ago. The mission’s motto is ‘Help, Healing and Hope, One Cup at a Time.’

“We do entrepreneurial philanthropy,” Beering said. “We buy the coffee from the Boquete mission at a premium and resell the coffee in the U.S. Our target is we try to give the mission somewhere between $20,000 and $25,000 per year. More recently, we’ve been closer to that number.”

Any proceeds, less expenses, are returned to the medical mission in materials, medicine and money. The mission, which serves the Guaymi, the indigenous residents, has a full-time staff of 20 people, including farm workers, mechanics and drivers.

At first, Beering only sold bulk coffee at the Carmel Farmers Market.

“Then a number of years ago we

started brewing coffee at the market,” Beering said. “We’ve been doing that as one of the primary retail channels. We also sell the coffee online and most recently have joined the Walking Waffle at Circle Centre Mall’s food court. That seems to be doing very well.”

The mission and coffee farm are literally carved on the side of the inactive volcano, Volcancito, outside Boquete, Panama, Beering said.

“I figured out the supply chain and all the important licensing. I figured out the website and all the e-commerce and dropped it in on top of my existing businesses,” said Beering, a lawyer and homeland security expert who has a snow removal business. “We manage to get necessary certifications. We have all the same licensing and food handling requirements that most other food handlers have. So we are licensed in several counties. We’re held to the same standards that a brick-and-mortar business is in terms of sanitation. All of our equipment is routinely inspected. Panamanian coffee is only picked when it’s ripe and picked by hand, not machine.”

Beering said the coffee operation is conveniently located in one of the top three

coffee regions on Earth. The coffee region is a narrow band near the equator. It needs the mix of mountains and rain.

“Coffee from the Boquete valley is considered one of the top in the world,” Beering said.

“This is considered premium estate coffee.

What we’ve brought up the last year or two is some of the best coffee in the 15 years that we’ve been bringing it up.”

About a year ago, Mission Coffee moved its roasting production to Zionsville-based Julian Coffee Roasters.

“We believe this is the best coffee that can be had in this part of the area,” Beering said. “I like to tell people the coffee is terrific, but the backstory puts it over the top.”

Beering designed his own van to brew and serve the coffee at Carmel Farmers Market.

“It was fun to design the truck,” Beering said. “We do markets 10 months out of the year. We enjoy being a market vendor. We have a loyal clientele. The Farmers Market is one of the best amenities Carmel has to offer. It’s an impressive array of things to eat and things to cook with, and there is a lot of produce.”

The Panama Christian Evangelism Mission serves the medical, dental and eye care needs of the Guaymi.

Peter Beering’s daughter, Amanda, who has a master’s degree in cellular physiology and plans to attend medical school in the fall, accompanies him on the trips. She assists Dr. Amanda Beering helps treat an Alan Handt injury during a trip to Panama. in caring for the patients.

“My daughter is fluent in Spanish, which most of them speak along with their native language,” Beering said. “Amanda is like the Pied Piper. She is great with kids and has the perfect personality for this.”

Amanda, 26, who started going to the mission when she was 13, said the mission trips have influenced her decision to go to medical school.

“I’m a certified medical interpreter,” she said. “Part of it for me is seeing what immersive medical care can be like. It was a little frustrating given the additional time (of translating). I felt if I had the skill set to do it myself, that would be a much more efficient process.”

Beering said there is a three-station dental clinic and a medical clinic that accommodate up to 50 patients a day.

“There is an opthalmic surgery clinic, a food pantry and buses because none of the Guaymi people drive,” he said.

From working in the sun, Beering said the Guaymi are very susceptible to cataracts.

“Some of these people will go blind waiting to see a doctor,” Beering said. “When the eye doctors go, they operate on 200 eyes, and you get one eye done so you are functional. We’ve had people weep because they had never seen their grandchildren (before).”

Beering and her father typically travel to the mission once a year.

I feel the need ... for Top Gun mothering

FR O M T HE b a ck s h o p

Bring on voter IDs We would urge President Donald Trump to forego the deep and broad investigation into voter fraud, whose results won’t change a darned thing – except perhaps allow him bragging rights on the popular vote - and instead opt for immediate institution of a voter identification card, which was a reported goal. That should go a long way toward settling the issue. It’s probably not perfect, but dead guys can’t sign up for an ID, and the person with multiple addresses across state lines would have to choose one. Besides, a lengthy investigation will do nothing except bring an “I told you so” if Trump’s suspicions are confirmed or an “Oops; it was worth a shot” if nothing is proved. What would be guaranteed, though, is an expenditure of taxpayer dollars on the effort, and those dollars would be spent much more wisely on another pursuit, such as studying the effects of expediently reducing corporate and personal income tax.

••• You might know by now that we are not fans of much of the mainstream media.

So imagine our ire when it was disclosed that outlets are taking vicious potshots at Trump’s youngest son, 10-year-old Barron.

That kid – even Chelsea Clinton spoke up on his behalf – should be allowed to live as normal a gold-plated existence as possible.

He didn’t suggest his mom and dad become president and first lady. Leave him alone, media twits, and go report – truthfully – on other aspects of the presidency. You know, kinda like you didn’t do with respect to our former president, Barack Obama?

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

They made noise and left Commentary by Terry Anker “I’m here for the oppressed,” she said through her stylish cashmere Burberry scarf, with her blue-green eyes peering from the gap between it and the hand-knitted pink cap in a carefully formed cat-ear design pulled down tightly in an effort to appear serious. Perhaps she was. But it seemed like she was there more for the fun of it all.

We humans are a protesting lot. It all starts as we sit in our high chairs, asserting our first toddling attempts at independence from our life-giving parents, and refuse to eat our peas. When mother encourages us to consume the spherical green seeds, we protest – throwing back our heads and screaming until the walls shake. We are unhappy.

And you NEED to know about it.

In this long tradition of sharing our own personal point of view, many stand ready to stand for or stand against – well, something … anything. As our nation exhibited yet another peaceful transition from one presiden-

tial administration to another, the streets of our nation’s capital filled with those ready to use the gathered witnesses as an audience to their own ends. They came alone, in packs, small groups and bus loads. Each selfpossessed with their own grievance. There are those who believe our leaders are too religious, and those who believe our leaders are too little religious. Some love pigs. Others love pork. All the “ists” were represented – race, sex, fasc, misogyn and too many more to count (indeed, some took terrific liberty with the English language).

Some rose to the attention of the national media – a mechanism to provide backdrop for their own ever-slanting narrative. But most made a bit of noise and then went home.

Q U O T E O F T HE W EE K “People who enjoy meetings should not be in charge of anything.”

– Thomas Sowell

In honor of Hollywood awards season, I bring you another installment of “When Movies Meet Mothering,” my humor new series where I cleverly insert classic lines from some of my favorite films. Today’s homage is to my teenage crush Tom Cruise and the 1986 flick I saw six times in the theater, “Top Gun” (you’re welcome, SJ!).

One of the ongoing dogfights here at Chez Wilson involves our children not working to their potential. Our oldest, in particular, has caused many a liquor store fly-bys as Doo and I struggle to understand how someone with a pretty good head on his shoulders can make such poor decisions when it comes to homework and studying.

It’s almost as if he’s purposely buzzing the tower of unacceptable grades just to see if he can spill someone’s coffee.

We keep telling him that as a senior in high school, if he doesn’t want to end up selling rubber dog poop out of Hong Kong, he’s going to need to apply himself. He’s going to need to do it right like his old man and not settle for the second-place plaque in the Ladies Room.

Luckily, of late, our Maverick has been doing better. He’s stayed above the approved academic hard deck for several months now and has only been inverted once. But we still see him occasionally pulled into the danger zone, unable to resist the siren’s call of Netflix and video games and hanging with his wingmen. And that’s the hard part for us, keeping our helicopter instincts grounded while he serenades potential disaster. We don’t want his ego to start writing checks his report card can’t cash, especially now that college is looming like a great ball of fire, but we also don’t want to always be up in his grill.

I suppose this is just a normal part of parenting teenagers, learning to trust your child to pilot his own F-14 through swarms of MiG-28’s and hoping that if he does need to pull the ejector handle, he stays clear of the canopy (yeah, I went there).

Peace out.

‘Sloppy job’ allegation simply not true Editor, In regards to the Dec. 20, 2016 article entitled, “Carmel City Council Considers Audit Committee,” for (Council President Ron) Carter’s comment about the “sloppy job” done by the clerk-treasurer’s office, it is simply unfounded and an outrageous comment that does not ring true. In both a discussion between the State Board of Accounts and Mr. Carter as well as in a meeting between SBOA, CT’s Office (including its two CPAs) and Mr. Carter, the SBOA sang praises for the responsiveness and work performed by the CT’s office during this year’s audit of the 2015 fiscal year, indicating that the CT’s office could not have been any more helpful. I will state that the physical inventory of the city’s $1.1 billion assets had not been kept up in prior years under the watch of the city council, the mayor or their longtime accountants, Coonrod and Associates,

thus the need to conduct a full-scale, citywide physical inventory by my office, which caused a delay.

Interestingly enough, it appeared to be at the point when the CT’s office raised the suggestion to the council president that they planned to look at different professional accounting firms next year, such as those who produce other municipalities’ financial statements, that have successfully garnered the Government Finance Officers Association Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program, that all of a sudden Mr. Carter scrambled to find a way to retain Coonrod, the mayor’s longtime friend. Change is not a bad thing, especially when what has been entrenched for years is no longer working.

for the existing zoning laws was when she voted in favor of changing the R1 zoning to enable the Bonbar development to move forward in our neighborhood? Perhaps had it been in the Cool Creek neighborhood things would have been different?

Drawing first blood, again

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

I had blood drawn the other day. I don’t envy phlebotomists. Imagine having a job where everyone hates you for humor what you are about to do, and the first thing you say to the person is “make a fist.” Plus, when she tells people she’s a phlebotomist, a lot of her patients think she has six husbands.

My technician, Shirley, uses the same joke every time. She looks at me with flirty eyes and says, “It’s too bad you’re married. You’re my type.” I laughed at this for my first few appointments, but I have my own joke for my next visit. When she tells me what a tough day she’s had, I’ll tell her to just go with the flow. I’m not sure how much longer we can keep this up. Probably ’til my LDL goes down.

Shirley says there are two kinds of people in the world: Those who watch when the needle goes in and those who don’t. She says those who stare are usually uptight, aging baby boomers who are control freaks. Ever since she mentioned that, when she sticks me, I tell her what lovely eyes she has or how interesting the clinic ceiling is.

Shirley also likes to sneak in a little medical advice of her own. She tells me Cheerios

would be good for raising my HDL. Or was it that Wheaties will lower my LDL? All I know is, she doesn’t think much of Count Chocula and Fruit Loops.

How long are you supposed to keep that silly cotton ball and bandage on your arm? I rip it off the second I walk out the door. My wife thinks if you remove the bandage, you jeopardize your health insurance coverage.

At her last yearly check-up, she just told the phlebotomist to take off the old bandage and stick her in the same place.

When I left, Shirley confirmed my personal information …

“And is that your correct birth date, March 5, 1947?”

“Well, I’d like to change that to l957.”

Incredibly, she took her pen and scribbled something on the page.

I walked out of the office on cloud nine. My cholesterol may still be sky high, but I felt 10 years younger.

DIVORCE: Parenting Coordination

Hire Us

Before Your Spouse Does DIVORCE & FAMILY LAW MEDIATION & COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE Custody Child Support Prenuptial Agreements Adoptions Education Law DUI 317.DIVORCE | www.hzlegal.com 11555 N. Meridian St. | Suite 530 | Carmel, IN 46032

High conflict co-parenting situations are not only extremely exhausting, but are challenging to find any type of quick resolution. Furthermore, litigation is not always the best solution for these types of matters, as the parties lose control of the outcome, the process can be slower than desired, and it is generally very expensive. However, a positive trend that is increasingly growing in Indiana family law cases are the appointments of parenting coordinators. A parenting coordinator (or “PC”) is an individual appointed by Order of the court and charged with managing on-going issues between parents in cases with constant and substantial disputes involving child custody and parenting time issues.

Generally, the PC is either a mental health professional or a lawyer with significant experience in family law issues.

What is a PC’s role/function? The purpose of the PC is to help assist divorced parents navigate their co-parenting relationships by resolving impasses concerning child-related issues and helping to redirect parents to focus primarily on the needs of the child. A PC will aid in developing, implementing, and maintaining parenting plans to ease parenting issues, all in hopes of reducing further litigation. A PC’s authority is specifically defined by the Court’s Order, which is generally prepared by the parties’ and their respective attorneys. The Order of the court will have considerable detail as to the extent and limitations of the duties of the PC; however, the easiest description for the PC’s role is the PC will have the ability to act as a communication facilitator, an ongoing mediator and even, essentially, an arbitrator for excessively divisive situations.

As the goal is to help the parties effectively co-parent and address issues which may arise from time to time, the PC typically meets with both parties regularly, receives day-to-day questions and complaints about any aspect of a party's conduct, gathers information from outside sources (schools, doctors, counselors, etc.) and works with the parties, looking for consensus or, at least, basic agreement. If this is unsuccessful, the PC

may choose to inform the parties of what the PC believes is in the best interests of the child in the hopes of pushing the parties to an agreement.

While the role of the PC does not divest the court of its jurisdiction to determine child-related issues (custody, parenting time, child support, etc.), the PC may submit recommendations to the court if no agreement is possible. Further, upon receipt of the PC’s recommendations, depending upon the circumstances, those recommendations may be immediately adopted by the court.

How is a PC selected? Either party may petition the court to appoint a PC. Alternatively, if both parties agree that their situation would benefit from the involvement of a PC, the parties may submit an agreement for the appointment of a PC to the court. If an agreement is reached, the parties may also select the PC which would work best for their matter.

How much will this cost? PC’s are oftentimes attorneys and charge parents for the time involved in addressing the issues presented by the parties. Typically, a court will require the parents to share the PC’s costs, so that they are both “invested” in the process. As part of its authority, the PC has the ability to reapportion costs if one party’s lack of cooperation is clearly a primary issue and the source of a disproportionate amount of the PC expense.

Thus, for parents who find themselves in the midst of constant high conflict battles concerning parenting time or custody matters, or are forced to have repeated hearings or mediation, a PC might be a great alternative solution to consider.

At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs.

If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, custody, support, or any other family law concerns contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com. We have attorneys at our firm who are active Parenting Coordinators and available for appointment.

Policy analyst examines how to grow Indiana

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Drew Klacik is convinced for Indiana to grow, it must be proactive about attracting people to move into development the state.

“We have to take risks,” said Klacik, senior policy analyst at the Indiana University Public Policy Institute at IUPUI. “We have to invest in our future.”

Klacik spoke about the Public Policy study “Thriving Communities, Thriving State” and how it relates to Hamilton County, central Indiana and the state Jan. 11 at the OneZone luncheon at Ritz Charles in Carmel.

“The slowest growing states in the nation are almost all in the Midwest,” Klacik said. “Our (Indiana) growth rate is about 12 percent, and the United States is expected to grow around 29 percent. It’s because we don’t make as many babies as other places.

It’s because our babies move away. That’s the big challenge we face.”

Nine of the last 10 years, more people have moved out of Indiana than into Indiana, Klacik said.

“We’re getting better at growing jobs and wages, but we’re not getting better as fast as the rest of the United States,” Klacik said.

Drew Klacik, senior policy analyst at the Indiana University Public Policy Institute at IUPUI, presents his policy at the OneZone luncheon.

“We’re making progress while falling farther behind. That’s a troubling trend.”

Klacik said most people moving into Indiana are from Michigan, Illinois and Ohio.

“Those are three of the states dying faster than we are competing for human capital,” he said.

Klacik said keys are forward-thinking leadership and creating a thriving regional ecosystem.

“One is to grow and attract jobs, the second is to grow and attract talent and third is to grow really attractive places to let you do that,” Klacik said.

Klacik said it is easier to create human capital retention strategies than it is to create human capital attraction strategies.

“More people migrate to Hamilton County on average every year from Marion County than the rest of the United States,” Klacik said. “If Indiana suffers, Marion County suffers. If Marion County suffers, you all (Hamilton County) suffer, especially if you are a realtor.”

Klacik said one constant in the study is “what you want out of life is for your children’s life to be better than yours, and your grandchild’s life to be better than theirs, whether you are from Paoli, Carmel or Fort Wayne.”

Klacik said collaboration to grow the state is essential, and the status quo is unacceptable.

Music helps with memory

By Chris Bavender news@currentincarmel.com The Great American Songbook Foundation and Alzheimer’s Association Greater Indiana Chapter have perfect harmony partnered for a new program to help those with early stage Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia. Called Perfect Harmony, it helps reach people through the power of the music of some of the nation’s greatest artists.

“Studies now show the many physical and cognitive effects of music on the brain.

We know that musical aptitude and appreciation are among the last abilities in dementia patients. People with Alzheimer’s often have difficulty with short-term memory, but music can tap a deep emotional recall that evokes long ago memories,” said Chris Lewis, vice president of the Great American Songbook Foundation.

The program is hosted by the Great American Songbook Foundation at the Palladium in the Songbook Gallery.

A team of volunteers help create and facilitate the programs, which feature a different theme each month with a specific

song list and activities for each. The primary focus is on the Golden Age of popular music, the 1920s through the 1960s.

“For seniors, this is the music of their youth,” Lewis said. “The response has been amazing. We knew there was a need for a program like this, but we had no idea how great that need was.”

Although the initial focus of the program was on those living with Alzheimer’s, local assisted living facilities also bring their residents to Perfect Harmony sessions.

“Our hope is to eventually be able to offer the program at assisted living centers and other offsite locations,” Lewis said.

2. Drink lots of water to flush bacteria from the intestinal tract.

3. Eat yogurt. The good bacteria can improve the overall health of the digestive system.

4. Drink cranberry juice. Be sure to drink real juice, not the flavored cranberry cocktail.

Hands and feet always cold? — When your body senses a drop in external temperature, blood vessels in your extremities contract in order to redirect more blood to your trunk. This protects your organs by keeping them warm. This is why cold weather affects your hands and feet more than other parts of your body. To counteract this, stay well hydrated and increase your activity level to improve circulation.

Hancock explores unsolved mystery in ‘Black Dahlia’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Black Dahlia case is one of the most famous unsolved murders in U.S. history.

Elizabeth Short, nicknamed the Black Dahlia by newspapers, was brutally murdered in Los Angeles in 1947.

Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre audiences will take their crack at Dance solving it when the theatre presents “The Black Dahlia” Feb. 4-19 at 329 Gradle Dr., Carmel. The six cabaret-style performances will be at 7 p.m. Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays. The production was created by founder/artistic director Gregory Hancock.

“We set up four scenarios that could have happened. We use some historical facts but took some artistic liberty, too,” Hancock said. “There’s not a lot of information about the crime and who could have done it. So we developed some scenarios, and the audience gets to decide who it was. They have suspect cards on their table, and they vote.”

Company dancer and teacher Hannah Brown, 25, will play the role of Short, who was 22 when she was murdered.

“I made the mistake of looking it up when I was eating lunch one day. I wouldn’t recommend it,” said Brown, referring to the gory details of her murder. “I became fascinated with the unsolved mystery of it and how little is known about her life before her death. Lots of people confessed but they don’t think any of them actually did it, and the most likely candidate they were closing in on died in a fire.”

There are some lighter moments.

“We like our emotional roller coasters here,” Brown said. “There are some fun moments.

There is a little sister duet that is lighthearted. There are some sad moments and dark moments, too.”

Hancock said the music is different than what he would normally use.

“There is a lot of 1940s swing music and ‘40s Latin swing music,” he said. “There are a lot of fun and happy sections and almost comic sections. Then when it becomes dark, it becomes creepier.”

The production is the annual fundraising show, board President Ivy Heazeltine said. There will be a live auction with some original art.

Heazeltine said approximately one-third of the theatre’s revenue comes from ticket sales and the rest it has to raise.

Friends rivals in ‘Suite Surrender’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Jill O’Malia and Georgeanna Teipen have acted together before on stage, but their upcoming show will be their toughest challenge. They have theater to pretend they don’t like each other.

“On stage, we’re enemies. Off stage, we’re really great friends,” O’Malia said.

The two will star in Carmel Community Players’ production of “Suite Surrender” Feb. 10 to 26 at Carmel Clay Playhouse at Clay Terrace.

O’Malia is cast as Athena Sinclair and Teipen as Claudia McFadden. It's set in 1942 at the Palm Beach Royale Hotel.

“We’re both there to perform for a (World War II) benefit, and they are trying to keep us apart,” O’Malia said. “Somehow, we’re assigned to the same suite. So there is a lot of slamming of doors and mistaken identity. There is never a dull moment the whole show.

Then there is an unexpected ending, which makes the whole thing pretty cool.”

Teipen said the rivalry is similar to the legendary Hollywood one between Bette Davis and Joan Crawford.

“It’s clever, it’s silly and it’s poignant,” Teipen said.

This is Fishers resident O’Malia’s first appearance in a CCP show.

“Athena is an interesting role to play. She’s sophisticated but she is still kind of perky,” O’Malia said. “But she is every inch a diva.”

Teipen said there have been a lot of laughs during rehearsals.

“It’s a lot of fun. Jill is one of my best buddies,” said Teipen, a Greenfield resident who is a Marion County deputy prosecuting attorney. “Comedy is fun because I

From left, friends Georgeanna Teipen (left) and Jill O’Malia perform in “Suite Surrender.” (Submitted photo)

love to make people laugh.”

Teipen’s dog, a Chihuahua-Yorkie mix, also appears in the show.

Jan Jamison, CCP’s artistic director, is directing the show. Jamison, a Noblesville resident, said comedies are hard to do because of timing.

“I think it’s harder than dramas to direct (and) to get it right,” Jamison said.

Sydney Loomis, a Cicero resident who plays the hotel manager, said dealing with the props is the biggest challenge.

“I have a lot of movement in the show,” Loomis said. “I run around like a crazy man at times. There is a lot of physical comedy in it.”

Tenors to make Palladium stop

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Five Irish Tenors have been preparing for the past two years to get their songs just right for their first North concert American tour.

So far, so good, singer George Hutton said.

“The audiences have been receptive to our performances so far,” Hutton said. “It’s such a great energy, and we really feed off that.

Thank God, we all get along really well, which is always a bonus.”

The Five Irish Tenors, who began the tour in January, will perform at the Palladium in Carmel at 8 p.m. Feb. 4.

“In our audience there will be people with Irish heritage or backgrounds who want to hear a little of that, so we will sing some Irish classics,” Ciaran Kelly said. “We’ll bring some of our own favorites like pop music, so songs

by Billy Joel and artists such as that. Everything has been arranged for this by our musical director, Danny Forde.”

The other tenors are Morgan Crowley, Alan Leech and David Martin.

“Ireland is a small place, and the music world is even smaller, so we all worked together or sung together in different aspects,”

From left, The Five Irish Tenors, David Martin, Ciaran Kelly, George Hutton, Morgan Crowley and Alan Leech, will appear Feb. 4 at the Palladium. (Submitted photo)

Kelly said. “We got together, and five is a good number for the harmony.”

“Danny Forde has arranged some beautiful pieces. They have some rich and ringing harmonies in them,” Hutton said. “I’ve spoken to the audiences after some of the concerts and one of the aspects they’ve really enjoyed have been the harmonies. One of the pieces that really rings out is ‘Bridge over Troubled Water.’

There are some really nice harmonies in that.

There are many different vocal arrangements of the pieces and they all lend themselves well to the program.”

Band to perform ’50s classics

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com It’s fitting that a group called Under the Streetlamp would get its start from “Jersey Boys.” music Shonn Wiley said the touring group began after the original four members were in the Broadway and Chicago productions of “Jersey Boys,” which follows the career of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

“While we were in the show we decided we wanted to learn some of that great doo-wop music from the ’50s and ‘60s,” said Wiley, whose group will perform at 8 p.m. Feb. 3 at Clowes Memorial Hall in Indianapolis. “So we started performing around Chicago. When the show got its closing notice the four of us decided we’d like to stay together and perform. We stayed in Chicago performing for nonprofits, and we were headliners at dinners and fundraisers. We love the music and serving the demographic that grew up with this music, the Baby Boomers.”

Joining Wiley are Michael Ingersoll, Christopher Kale Jones and Brandon Wardell. Broadway veteran Wardell, the only member not to perform in “Jersey Boys,” joined the group in

Shonn Wiley performs as a member of Under the Streetlamp, which will perform Feb. 3 at Clowes Hall. (Submitted photo)

July 2015.

In 2011, the group filmed the first of three PBS live concerts.

“Since then we’ve been touring all over the country bringing the hits of the American Radio Songbook to fans across the United States,” Wiley said. “We cover music from the Beach Boys to Dion and the Belmonts. We do a little bit of Elvis and the Beatles. We always pay tribute to our roots with Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons medley. So it’s all those songs you heard on the radio from the early 1950s all the way through the late 1960s.

Blueprint for Improvement: Maximizing bathroom space Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

After

The goal for this master ensuite was to maximize the usable space for each separate function, while coordinating with the aesthetics of the adjacent master bedroom.

1. Multiple walls were relocated to reconfigure the bathroom and closet spaces. This allowed for the closet, vanity and shower spaces to all double in size.

2. The new double-sink vanity has a significant amount of additional storage, including two tower cabinets that contain outlets inside for hiding small bathroom appliances. The beautiful cherry-stained cabinets and unique marble countertops are the focal point of the room and coordinate seamlessly with the finishes of the adjacent master bedroom.

3. A clear, frameless glass shower surround gives an open, bright feel to the new, larger shower. It also accommodates a corner seat and two recessed storage niches, convenient for holding personal care items.

4. A new heated floor system with a programmable thermostat is a hidden feature that adds an additional level of comfort.

Before Background Info: This Geist home in the Beam Reach neighborhood of Indianapolis had unique features that were no longer functional. Also, the original 1980s aesthetics did not align with the owners’ personal style and overall vision for their home.

Before problems: Before the renovation, the bathroom was dark, outdated and confining. For the amount of square footage in the master ensuite, there was too much wasted space because of a large recessed hot tub and chopped up functions in separate areas. In addition, the shower was too small, and the ensuite lacked sufficient vanity and closet storage.

SERVING CARMEL FOR

Teacher OF THE MONTH

31 YEARS Kronstadt Naval Base near St. Petersburg, Russia. (Photo by Don Knebel)

War and peace in Kronstadt Commentary by Don Knebel Cruise ship passengers entering the harbor of St. Petersburg, Russia, are surprised to find themselves alongside a Russian travel naval base. They are equally surprised to see an enormous Byzantine cathedral standing amid the warships.

In 1703, Czar Peter the Great established St. Petersburg at the head of the Gulf of Finland.

A year later, to guard against naval attacks, he established a fortress on Kotlin Island in the middle of the gulf about 19 miles west of his new city. The area around the fortress, known as Kronstadt, became the base of Russia’s Baltic Fleet. Today, Kronstadt remains one of the bases of that fleet.

In the 19th century, Russian naval officials began promoting the idea of an imposing cathedral on Kronstadt to honor those killed serving the Russian Navy. The idea was promoted by a popular local priest, later canonized as St. John of Kronstadt. In 1897, Czar Nicholas II approved the idea. Russian architects then traveled to Turkey and Greece to collect ideas about the designs of historic Byzantine cathedrals. A domed cathedral, mod-

eled on Istanbul’s sixth century Hagia Sophia, was erected on Kronstadt’s Anchor Square, once the resting place of used anchors. The massive cathedral, honoring St. Nicholas, not coincidentally also the name of the czar, was consecrated in 1913, the 300th anniversary of the founding of the Romanov dynasty.

Five years later, the Communist government executed Czar Nicholas and then closed the cathedral and confiscated its treasures.The cathedral was subsequently repurposed as a cinema, a community center for Kronstadt officers and a museum, destroying much of its ornate interior.

In 2002, the Russian Orthodox Church replaced the cross atop the cathedral’s 80-foot diameter dome, which towers above Kronstadt’s historic lighthouse. After extensive renovations, the Naval Cathedral of St. Nicholas was reconsecrated May 28, 2013, 100 years after its original consecration.

Bouncier hair — If you want to give your hair some body and bounce, use a bit of champagne. Wash and rinse as usual. Then comb about a cup of champagne through damp hair. Let sit for a couple of minutes, then rinse. The bubbly should help make your hair livelier, and the tartaric acid in the champagne will bring out your hair’s natural highlights, especially if you are blonde.
