Corrie Meyer, director of the Carmel Redevelopment Commission which would be selling the property, said she thinks this would be a great way to compliment the city’s Barrett vision for Midtown. “It’s a great example of partners coming together and making great work happen,� she said. “It’s a great transition into the Midtown area.�

Two developers in Carmel – Old Town Design Group and Barrett & Stokely – were bidding against each other to build DEVELOPMENT homes on land west of the Monon Trail and just south of Bub’s CafÊ.

Now the two companies will join forces on the project.

The CRC intends to sell $1.7 milMoffett lion worth of unused land south of 2nd Avenue SW and east of 3rd Avenue/4th Avenue SW to allow the companies to build a mix of for-sale and rental units that will act as a “transition into the Midtown area.�

4th Avenue SW “The desire for a mix of uses made the collaboration a great idea,� said Bryan Barrett, of Barrett & Stokely. “The things we are good at are things that they don’t really do and vice versa. And when we got together the ideas came together to make something really Monon Avenue exciting.�

Barrett & Stokely’s strengths lie in upscale rental units and property management. Main Street on the Monon and Old Town on the Monon properties are walkable from this new project and the 1st Avenue SW company is currently constructing a high-end apartment complex called The Seasons near the city’s southern border.

Old Town Design Group, led by developer Justin Moffett, started off building Range Line Road custom homes in the city’s downtown, The Midtown West development area.

State officials talk school funding Compiled by James Feichtner A legislative breakfast was held March 14 at Hussey Mayfield Memorial Public Library.

What happened: A group of Indiana State Representatives and SenaGOVERNMENT tors spoke to the public on various topics, including the school funding formula.

Who attended: State Representatives Tim Brown, Donna Schaibley and Jeff Thompson, and State Senators Phil Boots, Mike Delph and Brandt Hershman. Public audience in attendance.

What was discussed: The main focus of the meeting was to update the public on the current progress of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school funding formula and to interact with the public via a question and answer session. State senators and representatives first introduced themselves to the public and followed with various topics currently in discussion.

Schools: Speakers stressed that school funding is key and that nothing is more critical. More funding is planned to be put toward the school formula than in the past few years, adding that the 2013 fiscal year had more than 50 percent of its budget funding K-12 education. Funding will continue to increase through 2017. An estimated $6.7 billion is to be used toward K-12 tuition support in the 2015 fiscal year, which will increase in the 2016 and 2017 fiscal years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We spend $15 billion a year of state money, when you add federal money into that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about 28 to 29 billion a year,â&#x20AC;? said Rep. Tim Brown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By far and away the largest expenditure for money is K-12 education. Our budget in the second year, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll spend 6.9 billion in general operations of K-12 education.â&#x20AC;?

Increases in education funding over the biennium were approximately $469 million including a near 9 percent increase to the school funding formulaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foundation, benefitting every student.

The proposed budgets would reduce the gap in per-student funding between the lowest and highest funded public schools, noting that different school districts have different, unique needs.

Give yo ur ki ds a star ri ng ro le in life!

After the meeting, Rep. Tim Brown (R-Crawfordsville) speaks with a member of the audience.

In the per-student severe disabilities grant there will be an $8,000 increase and a $2,300 increase for the moderate disabilities grant.

Other topics: Ongoing efforts to reduce the rates of infant mortality and domestic violence and increase sexual assault assistance, sexual assault prevention, as well as discussion of annexation on both local and state levels.

A two-year state budget will be implemented this year that will be balanced, not exceeding the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ongoing revenue, prioritized in funding needs that best suit the publicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needs to support economic growth such as education and infrastructure.

Questions from audience: Public members of the audience asked questions regarding local school funding action plans and how specifically the gaps in lower funded schools versus higher funded schools will be addressed, and how the free/reduced lunch programs offered at schools are regulated.

Other questions pertained to plans for how Indianaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current environmental state is being improved, such as local and state water quality and the overpopulation of deer in Eagle Park, how common construction wages will be addressed, concerns about funds collected from incarcerated individuals and their families that are then used toward law enforcement resources, and property tax distribution.

City council recap

2^\_X[TS Qh 0SP\ 0PbT]

What Happened: The Carmel City Council unanimously approved $698,050 in arts funds.

What it means: Every year, the city appropriates money for the arts fund, which is usually around 1 percent of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall budget. This year, the total amount was less than 1 percent of the city budget so there was no objection from any city councilor and it was approved unanimously.

The funding is as follows: Â&#x201C; Actors Theatre of Indiana â&#x20AC;&#x201C; $145,000 Â&#x201C; Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; $190,000 Â&#x201C; Carmel Arts Council â&#x20AC;&#x201C; $13,000 Â&#x201C; Carmel Community Players â&#x20AC;&#x201C; $14,000

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next: The various arts organizations will receive the money.

What Happened: The Carmel City Council unanimously approved a new contract with the firefighters union, along with somewhat related ordinances/amendments dealing with tuition reimbursement and city employee salaries.

What it means: The council took its time to examine the new contract with Carmel Firefighters Association (Local 4444) because there were new additions to the agreement. One city councilor raised questions about tuition reimbursement in the contract, leading to another ordinance to be introduced to specify the rules regarding tuition reimbursement. Another amendment to city ordinance specified city employee salaries, especially bonuses for firefighters who work on ambulances or become fluent in another language.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next: All three ordinances were passed unanimously without debate and go into effect.

What Happened: Various bills remained in committee What it means: The issue of what to do with the 126th Street and Auman Drive stop sign still remains in committee until a solution can be reached. The council is also still considering changes to the public notice for the Carmel Historic Preservation Commission.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next: The stop sign changes remain in the Utilities, Transportation and Public Safety Committee which meets next on April 2. The Historic Preservation ordinance remains in the Finance, Administration and Rules Committee.

John Accetturo, who is campaigning to regain his former seat on the Carmel City Council from incumbent Sue Finkam, had an UPDATE unexpected surgery last week to have his appendix removed.

During the day on March 14, Accetturo was knocking on doors with his wife Christine to try to spread the word about his campaign.

Accetturo After walking for more than three hours, he said he felt fine and he even spent the rest of the sunny day washing his car.

Nothing appeared to be wrong, but after he had dinner with his family, he said he felt a sharp pain and went to Carmel St.Vincent Hospital. He said he had to have his appendix removed on Sunday, but that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feeling much better, but still in a little pain.

Accetturo said he plans to be back out campaigning soon.

The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual gala serves two main purposes.

WOMEN First it raises needed funds for the Carmel house for women with crisis pregnancies and their children and second it creates awareness about what The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor House does. The Christian residential home opened in the summer of 2005. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The women are often homeless so we give them a new start in life,â&#x20AC;? said Kris Bussick, cofounder and the director of advancement for the house. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a life skills program where we teach them about budgeting, nutrition and prenatal care. When they come to us, they often come broken and when they leave we set them up in their own apartment, get them a job.â&#x20AC;?

The Basketball Madness fundraiser at the Ritz Charles on March 13, raised more than $124,000, exceeding the goal of $100,000, broad president Ann Beriault said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It costs $265,000 a year to run our home,â&#x20AC;?

Bussick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is so good for the community as an outreach.â&#x20AC;?

Bussick said mothers can stay up to 18 months if they are working in the program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really try to get them involved in completing their GED, going back to school and getting a

job,â&#x20AC;? Bussick said.

Bussick, a Carmel High School graduate, founded The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor House with Colleen Dulac.

Fishers resident Joy (Holmes) Harris served as the emcee of the fundraiser. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just learned about it a few months ago,â&#x20AC;?

Harris said. "It does so much more than just provide shelter and good. They provide life skills training, prenatal, postnatal, nutrition and resume-building skills. They provide transportation to school or work. They just do a lot of things to help to get them on their feet.â&#x20AC;?

Beriault said the fundraiser had many more corporate sponsors than it has had in the past. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a solid donor base and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to attract a lot of other new people,â&#x20AC;? the Carmel resident said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anyone who has a heart for moms and babies are learning more about The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connor House and getting the word out.â&#x20AC;?

The Hope Fund, the organization's annual fund campaign, will kick off on Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day (May 10).

A whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s who of Hamilton County met on March 13 for the annual fundraiser breakfast for Janus Developmental Services.

Janus Developmental PHILANTHROPY Services provides people with disabilities the opportunity to participate and contribute through the community through programs that help them find jobs, develop skills and thrive in the world.

The four honorary co-chairs for the fundraiser were mayors Jim Brainard of Carmel, Noblesvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s John Ditslear, Andy Cook of Westfield and Fishersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Scott Fadness. In all, around 400 people filled the 502 E. Event Centre, a new banquet hall where The Fountains used to be located.

The breakfast put a spotlight on all of the great things that Janus does, including helping find jobs for people with disabilities in Hamilton County. The nonprofit has partnered with 40 local area businesses.

Megan Varnaud, 47, a 1998 graduate from Hamilton Heights High School, spoke about how Janus helped find her current job at the Monon Community Center, where she has worked for the past three years, cleaning exercise equipment for about 15 hours a week.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like my job a lot and I make more than the minimum wage and just like you I pay taxes,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Other services offered by Janus include the Hamilton County Express, a public transit system that is scheduled on a first call basis to help people commute within the county.

Debbie Laird, director of development and transportation services at Janus, said thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a 63 percent cut in government funding, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s even more important to fundraise for their nonprofit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Raising funds helps us keep these programs going,â&#x20AC;? she said.

School board recap

C

2^\_X[TS Qh 9P\Tb 5TXRWc]Ta

What happened: Carmel High School student Wesley Middleton was honored in front of the board for being selected to participate in College Boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s AP Capstone diploma program that engages students â&#x20AC;&#x153;in rigorous scholarly practice of the core academic skills necessary for successful college completion,â&#x20AC;? according to the College Board website.

What happened: The board discussed the sale of $12,080,000 of general obligation bonds, which would be paid over the course of four years.

What it means: The sale would support funding for facilities and technology as well as manage the debt service tax rate over the course of a decade. Several hearings will be held April 27 allowing the public to comment on the action.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next: The recommendation was approved by the board allowing the sale to move onto its next steps of completion.

What happened: A recommendation to refinance the first mortgage bonds of series 2007 was approved.

What it means: The refinancing is estimated to save approximately $3.8 to $3.9 million in interest. The resolution is part of a way to manage the debt service tax rate over the next decade. The recommendation comes from previous success of the refinancing of series 2004 mortgage bonds, which saved approximately $1.7 million.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next: The board approved the recommendation unanimously.

What happened: A common wage committee was recommended to be formed to determine what the common wage for projects over $350,000 would be.

What it means: This comes from the Indiana law that requires any contractor working on construction projects exceeding that amount must be paid wage equal to the average construction wage being paid in the county. The school board must set up a committee of five members.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next: The school board recommends naming CCS associate superintendent Roger McMichael as the representative of industry and Rob Farrand as representative for the taxpayer residing in the county. The motion was approved unanimously.

Family role models spur Carmel girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; interest in pageant world

By Mark Ambrogi Â&#x201C; \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Rachel Berryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest in the pageant world was spurred though the success of her aunt.

Berryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aunt, Jan Berry, COVER STORY competed and won Miss Indiana several years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I used to walk in her pageant shoes and I thought it was the coolest thing ever,â&#x20AC;? Berry said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I saw pictures and thought I wanted to be like her, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a princess. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been doing it for about a year now and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve loved every second of it.â&#x20AC;?

While the Carmel High School junior is relatively new to the pageant world, Chesley Rowlett competed in the first pageant when she was just 12.

Rowlett, a 18-year-old Carmel resident who was homeschooled and now is a freshman at Olivet Nazarene University, got interested through her older cousin Hannah Robison, who was second runner-up to Miss Tennessee last year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been doing pageant since she was little,â&#x20AC;? Rowlett said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The thing that drew me to it is you get dressed up which is a lot of fun. But it helps with confidence, to get on stage and present yourself professionally.â&#x20AC;?

Rowlett was named Miss Indianapolis and the USA National Miss Indiana title at a pageant in January. Berry was named Teen Miss Indianapolis and USA National Miss Indiana Teen crown at the same pageant. Both will compete in different divisions in the USA National Miss from July 27-Aug. 1 in Orlando, Fla. The national pageant consists of a formal dress, interview and runway fashion. There are a lot of optionals for side awards, such as talent, most photogenic and community service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very excited. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be something that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never done before,â&#x20AC;? Berry said.

As part of winning their titles, Berry and Rowlett have helped with several fundraising events, such as Flight for Air Climb and the Miss Amazing pageant for girls with special needs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a neat experience,â&#x20AC;? Rowlett said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was my first time helping children with special needs. I am so excited to do it again. It was an amazing experience to meet the girls and help them with whatever they need. It really showed me how much they are just like us.â&#x20AC;?

Berry said â&#x20AC;&#x153;the girls just shined on the stage and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about celebrating their abilities.â&#x20AC;?

Working with special needs children has been a love of Berryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s since getting involved with

Berry said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Working with them makes me happy. They are never upset or mad at another person. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re always so excited to see you. They are gifts from God.â&#x20AC;?

Berry said the pageants have helped her build her confidence more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was bullied a lot and pageants help you regain your strength,â&#x20AC;? said Berry, who was a victim of cyberbullying primarily in middle school by another girl who used to be a close friend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You realize you are beautiful inside and out no matter what. You can walk on stage with confidence.â&#x20AC;?

FROM THE BACKSHOP

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Sever governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lengthening arm Our friends at Human Events sent a missive last week about the long arm of government getting longer. This time, the National Labor Relations Board on April 14 would like to make a law that businesses must provide employeesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; phone numbers and personal email addresses.

Whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s telling the jokes? The U.S. Senate already has defeated the measure, and this week the U.S. House of Representatives is going to vote on a Congressional Review Act resolution that the Senate has already passed to tell the NLRB to stop using government power to benefit union bosses. Last we heard, doling out workersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; personal contact information is a desecration of basic privacy entitlements and will inevitably lead to workers being targeted for harassment at the hands of union leadership. As your fellow Americans did with respect to the Senate vote, you should tell your House representative that you want privacy protected by sending a virtual â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do Not Disturbâ&#x20AC;? letter at http://friends.channeldemocracy.com. And, as Human Events noted: Unlike the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal, this letter is voluntary. Â&#x201C; Â&#x201C; Â&#x201C; Last week, one of our managing editors, Robert Herrington, hit the nail squarely on the head, when he penned a column taking â&#x20AC;&#x153;nearly invisibleâ&#x20AC;? candidates to task. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll parrot here what he proffered. The act of public service is serious business, just as is running for public office. Many candidates have declared for the primary election, and some of them even attend public meetings, like those of councils and boards. Some. Others are content to just hit the trail. It seems to us that if one wants to serve, he or she should make it a point to attend and grasp the goings-on of such panels.

Knowing the issues, challenges and opportunities and fully understanding them are separate animals. Ask your candidates (unless they already serve): Do you attend the meetings, and what have you gleaned from them? Then listen carefully. It will help you cast an informed vote on May 5. You are going to vote, correct?

A big week

Commentary by Terry Anker

It has been a big week. They all are; but, this one seems especially packed, back-to-back, with all the things that keep the adrenalin pumping. Life has a way of reminding us that it is in charge.

In Singapore on business, Carolyn, my bride of almost a quarter century now, emailed to let me know that her Mom, self-sustaining and independent into her 90â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, needed to move from the condo, where sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d lived the whole of the 10 years since her husband of 55 years had passed, into a place where greater care could be given her â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at least for a little while. So, Carolyn and the boys made the trip to north suburban Chicago to visit and check the transition.

The very next day, I returned to the US and my family found its way home for our reuniting. Our oldest has discovered that competitive college ultimate Frisbee can be a dangerous contact sport. His surgery to repair the shoulder damage incurred a week or so back was scheduled; and

we wanted him to be home, rested, and ready to go.

Work, delayed by inattention, piles up. Laundry, delayed by inattention, piles up, too. But with a bit of triage and good luck, we hit the necessary, review the less pressing, and hold-on to the rest. Life is unimpressed with our project management skills. Word came that Carolynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mom died a little more than a day after the visit. While unwelcomed, the news was not unanticipated.

So, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve planned arrangements. We helped our boy through his surgery (all went as hoped).

We worked a little (I even wrote a column). We managed to wash a few delicates. And, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only Wednesday. Maybe the best thing to do when life overflows is to let it. Could we stop it if we tried and would it really matter?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK â&#x20AC;&#x153;Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can.â&#x20AC;?

3P]]h :PhT

How would you react if your son caught the winning TD pass in the Super Bowl? Would you cheer? Cry? Twerk? I did all three when my extremely constipated 4-month-old son finally managed to â&#x20AC;&#x153;pass his own footballâ&#x20AC;? after an hour of straining and screaming. Honestly, I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been prouder! The next morning, our momentary trauma long-forgotten, I vowed to add juice to his diet, and that was that.

Then, five years later and still constipationignorant, I found myself at a Promptcare with an obscenely hot physician, trying to explain how, even with laxatives and a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enema, my infant daughter couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go. I watched in horror as he nonchalantly â&#x20AC;&#x153;extractedâ&#x20AC;? the blockage with a Q-tip and then lectured me on the importance of dietary fiber. Not my finest parenting moment, to be sure.

Now, thanks to another child, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m finally an expert on childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s constipation. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had it so bad that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been seeing a pediatric G.I. for more than two years. Part of his problem is his diet, which rarely sees a fruit or a vegetable, but the other part is just his body. His intestinal tract hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matured enough yet to process foods properly. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing I can do for his genetics, which I blame entirely on my husband, but I can address what he eats.

Unfortunately, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot easier said than done. After all, he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t down 12 espressos to stimulate his bowels, and Mueslix just tastes nasty.

Our main course of action has been Miralax, which is exactly as the name implies, a miracle laxative. The beauty is itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;tasteless, odorless, and dissolves instantly in liquid,â&#x20AC;? so I can sneak it in hot chocolate fairly easily.

Next up are the fiber supplements. Two candy-like tablets a day plus Benefiber sprinkled on and in anything he eats. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also switched out Wonder Bread for its brilliant imposter, whole-grain white, and changed to iron-free vitamins. As for the MIA fruits and veggies, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only come on board with canned pears and peeled apples, neither of which provide much fiber, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a start.

Hypothetically, we should be able to wean him off all this subversive counter-constipation â&#x20AC;&#x153;crapâ&#x20AC;? any time now, but on the few occasions when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve forgotten to administer his â&#x20AC;&#x153;medsâ&#x20AC;? for several days, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reverted right back to a strung-out 6 year old, red-faced and crying on the toilet. According to his doctor though, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a healthy normal little boy who may just have to deal with a laxative addiction. And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m okay with that, as long as he says â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hi Mom!â&#x20AC;? while holding the Lombardi trophy. Poop out! Please!

LICENSED AND INSURED

Ever notice that on TV that when a cop knocks on a suspectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s door, the guy is always home? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bad guys ever go to a HUMOR flick or an afternoon heist? Usually itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the suspectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old lady (a term gangsters always use) who answers the door.

She says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not there while he is sneaking out the back window. Â Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s station a few officers at those back windows. I know Cagney and Lacey are looking for work.

And when a murderer throws someone out a window, the victim always lands on a car hood, never the street. With alternate side of the street parking, the odds are youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going hit the pavement half the time.

Watch SWAT teams on TV. Everyone is wearing bullet-proof vests and crash helmets, and carrying a protective shieldâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;except the stars of the show, who sport a nice sweater vest and cap that says FBI or NYPD. It might as well say: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;M A CELEBRITY: DONâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;T SHOOT ME.â&#x20AC;?

Why does every cop on TV have a female partner who is gorgeous? This wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem the

type of profession to attract such a beauty. Why would a woman like that want to investigate a murder? Did you just say â&#x20AC;&#x153;because sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dropdead gorgeous?â&#x20AC;? STOP, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re killing me!

Police always show bartenders pictures of suspects. The bartender shrugs claiming he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t recognize the person, so the cop threatens to report that his beer glasses are dirty. All of a sudden, a brainstorm: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, she was in here three weeks ago Tuesday wearing a yellow blouse and tight blue skirt with a man about 20 years older who had  gray hair and a tattoo on his neck.â&#x20AC;? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t underestimate the power of the Board of Health.

Well, I gotta go. Someone is banging on the front door. I hope my old lady left the back window open.

There is a crisis in Indiana and veterans are dying. Something needs to be done! Veterans, reservists, and National Guard OPINION Hoosiers are an economic development opportunity and deserve priority status by the state.

Recently the Associated Press did a story on this situation. Some legislatorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tempers flared at the State House as a result of the advocacy efforts of The Military Veterans Coalition of Indiana.

Understandably, the members of The Coalition are frustrated and very disappointed that at the half-way point of the legislature, very little is moving to address the needs of our Hoosier Veteran population. This deep-seated frustration goes back at least five years. Since 2010, thirty-eight (38) military/veteran bills have become law. Only one bill financially helped a small select group of veterans- that bill was the increase in income tax deduction from $2,000 to $5,000 in 2013 (By the way the $2,000 became law in 1974). In 2012, the General Assembly REDUCED the â&#x20AC;&#x153;dependent col-

lege tuition discountâ&#x20AC;? for dependents of disabled veterans from 100 percent to a formula. The Legislative Services Agency (LSA) noted this would save $5 Million annually; disabled veterans LOST. Legislators indicate that veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; service organizations supported this legislationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not accurate. Veterans reluctantly accepted the choice of getting nothing or accepting the new decreased benefit.

ALL these same organizations currently want the 2012 law repealed. A third bill having negative financial impact on select veterans was the funding mechanism used to fund training for County Veterans Service Officers. The Veterans Family Relief Fund (designed to help needy veteran families who are in financial crisis) lost $180,000 that went for the training.

READERSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; VIEWS No solution, but still a problem Editor, How do you like that? The City Council voted 3-4 to remove the stop sign on 126th Street, so it looked like it was staying. Some people didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t appreciate this democratic process, so they got a re-do?

Anyway, they removed this stop sign once before and it turned 126th Street into a racetrack.

The roundabout idea at Kinzer is silly. Putting a roundabout there while also allowing the few Auman motorists a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Michigan Leftâ&#x20AC;? solution is no solution.

I think everyone is forgetting about the people who live on 126th Street. For several years now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been nearly impossible for us to exit our own driveways! This is a dangerous daily dilemma for

us. Kashman said a traffic light could cost $150K. Well, how much could just one lawsuit cost?

Brainard keeps telling us heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a trained expert, but why didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t he foresee this happening?

Rick Sharp says 126th Street is â&#x20AC;&#x153;becoming a popular road to takeâ&#x20AC;?. It became popular as soon as they built the roundabout over Keystone. This is what caused the major traffic issue on 126th Street. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worse is heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to make it four lanes, which would take a bad problem and make it worse for those living on 126th Street.

I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what the solution is, but it sounds like no one else does, either. I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t part of creating this problem, but I sure have to deal with it every day.

J.W. Smith, 46032

Stop sign â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;not voted inâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Editor, There are 53 driveways between Range Line Road. and the Hazel Dell Parkway on 126th Street. There are also 34 crossing and/ or connecting streets that include High Drive, Brookshire Parkway, Bayhill Drive and Carmel Drive that have heavy traffic compared to Auman Drive. Throw in 2 school crossings; 2 Church

connecting points plus the traffic coming/going into the apartments along Keystone Parkway and you can see my point. The reason the Auman stop sign is there and if my memory proves itself... it was not voted in... but erected by a friend of a friend who had some problems getting his wrecker in and out of his driveway...nuff said!!!

Robert Auscherman, Carmel

Stop the Auman Drive stop Editor, So, Luci Snyder asks, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What would you do?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The council should remove the sign for Auman and see how it works. Presently it is the only stop sign on 126th Street despite similar conditions on several other 126th Street intersections

east of Range Line. Similarly, there are no stop signs on 98th, 116th, Main, Smoky Row or 146th Street.

Is it wrong to hate hate-crime legislation?

Commentary by Carl Brizzi

Is hating hate crime legislation wrong? Is it wrong to hate self-righteous and intimidating legislation from progressive bulOPINION lies, who champion First Amendment freedoms only when the issues advocated march lockstep with the values championed by political correctness?

I ask the question because one Friday I was waiting to board a flight, and apparently, CNN is the only news channel airports are allowed to broadcast. As such, I was held captive by and subjected to CNN commentators talking about how much effort the FBI is exerting in investigating whether the murders allegedly committed by Craig Hicks were motivated by his hatred of Muslims or his hatred of people who park in other peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parking spaces.

A North Carolina grand jury last month indicted Hicks on three counts of first-degree murder. The preliminary investigation by local police revealed that the shootings occurred over a parking dispute. Federal officials, however, are conducting a parallel investigation into whether the multiple murders were motivated by hate, the inference being that killing three people over a parking dispute is somehow less horrific and, apparently, less hateful than committing murder because of bias.

As a former prosecutor, I understand the importance of establishing the motive for any murder. However, hate-crime legislation seeks to punish thought. The law basically adds penalties for what the perpetrator was thinking when the crime was committed. This is not to be confused with intent - which is what the accused did and under which circumstances - the difference between a knowing premeditated murder and sudden heat, for example. Intent is not an opinion or belief. And more importantly, intent is not protected by the Constitution.

What Hicks is accused of is terrible and, if convicted, he will be severely dealt with. Anyone capable of executing three innocent people is motivated, per se, by evil thoughts.

Do we really need to handicap the penalties based on exactly which kind of evil thought?

Regrettably, the slippery slope of eroding civil liberties in this nation continues in the name of security. It is, of course, wrong to harbor prejudice, but when the government ranks one evil thought over another we are entering the land of Orwellian not-so science fiction.

Voter advocacy issues for Westfield chamber Commentary by Westfield Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors With the upcoming primary election on May 5, it is important to note this is the determining election, as the candidate pool is OPINION dominated by one party. Many of the candidates run unopposed in the November election. So it is imperative that Westfield residents get out and vote in the primary to have thier voice heard.

Note the deadline for voter registration is April 6.

Please visit www.hamiltoncounty.in.gov for current election information.

The mission of the Westfield Chamber of Commerce is to promote a positive business

environment in the Westfield community. While it is policy of the chamber not to endorse specific political candidates, the chamber does affirm the following strategies and encourages residents to support candidates who advocate for the following: Â&#x201C; A business-friendly growth policy coupled with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quality-of-Lifeâ&#x20AC;? strategy for residents. Â&#x201C; Public/private partnerships in community development when deemed advantageous to positive economic growth. Â&#x201C; Continued economic development in and around the Grand Park Complex.

READERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S VIEW Portrayal of president â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;beyond the paleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Editor, Well, I can see things at Current in Carmel are continuing as previously. I quit reading the weekly a while back because of the regular political bias and demeaning editorials and cartoons.

I read this issue as the cover included someone I know well. BUT, portraying the president as trying to poison Israel is beyond the pale. How do you expect the youth of Carmel to be respectful

of our Office of the President, and American and strong international diplomatic partners with tripe like you regularly publish? I suppose the cartoonist Tim Campbell represents the editors views.

Next I guess we will be hearing that you also support the treasonous senators who are trying to destroy the efforts of the state department to prevent development of an Iranian nuclear bomb.

Local band nabs hearts of fans

Russ Baum & Huck Finn playing at Three Dsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Pub & CafĂŠ in Carmel. BdQ\XccTS _W^c^

Local duo Russ Baum & Huck Finn have been in the news lately for capturing the hearts of fans around Indy.

But what most people might not know is that they are based in Carmel. And, their success has been MUSIC hard work, too: Baum estimates they played between 160 and 180 shows last year. They call their style â&#x20AC;&#x153;folk energy and mayhem.â&#x20AC;?

Baum and Finn first met and became friends in 2002, when Baum performed at an open mic Finn hosted. They reconnected at a show in Bloomington almost ten years later, and started to play together in 2011. The two of them have created a purely acoustic sound, with just a guitar, djembe and their voices â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Â no reverb or effects. Both of them have

lived in Indiana their entire lives; Baum resides in Carmel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have the number one fans in Indy,â&#x20AC;? Baum said.

The band is on the cusp of signing with a record label to produce their next album, which he hopes to finish recording this spring. Baum said theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re speaking with agents in Nashville, as well as New York City. The pair is also eyeing a national tour.

Russ and Huck frequently play shows at Three Dsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Pub & CafĂŠ in Carmel. Three Dsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; front room is an Irish pub; every Friday and Saturday they open up their back room for live music (the room holds 230). A typical night includes three bands for a $5 cover charge, and the restaurant hosts a summer concert series with all original music. Russ and Huck are scheduled to play there next on March 28.

Joining ACO for the patients Commentary by John Paris, MD Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure most of you are pretty tired of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;alphabet soupâ&#x20AC;? coming from the government about healthcare: PPACA, PATIENT CARE ACA, HIP 2.0 and the like.

I have one more for you: ACO, also known as Accountable Care Organization. Simply put, an ACO works toward the socalled triple aim: Â&#x201C; Better care for patients Â&#x201C; Better health for our community Â&#x201C; Lower total cost of care.

Several local health care organizations, including Riverview Health, have recently become part of an ACO to better serve those who are 65 and older and are covered by traditional Medicare.

For most people, the impact will be minimal.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll still be able to see your own physician.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll still be entitled to all of your Medicare benefits. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be encouraged to obtain your annual wellness exam and, from there, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be encouraged to take part in all of the preventive care servicesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;such as mammograms, colon examinations and diabetes managementâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that Medicare provides. By filling in these â&#x20AC;&#x153;gaps in careâ&#x20AC;? and

better aligning your overall health care, we hope to achieve the triple aim.

Initially, ACOs will focus most of their attention on those who are at higher risk for illnesses than others. This increased focus includes hiring care coordinators whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll work alongside physicians to better customize care for people who are part of the ACO. This also includes help in simplifying medication treatment and use of generic drugs, as well as making prescription fills easier. All of which is done at the direction of the individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal physician.

For those of you whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve received your ACO letter, you do not need to do anything else. For those of you who choose not to participate in the data-sharing portion of the program, you have instructions on how to â&#x20AC;&#x153;opt out.â&#x20AC;? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited to participate with patients and other health care organizations on this newest initiative as we work to improve your care.

I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on to somethingâ&#x20AC;Ś Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dear Grammar Guy, please help me! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a new co-worker at the office who is a real stickler for gramGRAMMAR GUY mar rules. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty sure he even posted an anonymous correction to a company-wide memo once in the break room. Today he sent me an e-mail basically telling me Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m an idiot because I used â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;ontoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wrong. Can you straighten me out?â&#x20AC;?

Answer: Yeesh â&#x20AC;Ś that guy sounds like a real peach. Even I would never call someone out to the whole companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s e-mail list.

(Side note: I was going to say â&#x20AC;&#x153;the whole companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s listserv,â&#x20AC;? but apparently thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a trademarked word with a capital â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;L.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Who knew?)

There are three prepositions you need to master here: â&#x20AC;&#x153;on,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;ontoâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;on to.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Onâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;ontoâ&#x20AC;? are both used to refer to a position in relation to a concrete noun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On to,â&#x20AC;? which weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll talk about last, can be a bit more abstract.

To start simple, â&#x20AC;&#x153;onâ&#x20AC;? is used as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a function word to indicate position in contact with and

supported by the top surface ofâ&#x20AC;? something. You can sit on a chair. A cup can rest on a table. Your cat can lie on your keyboard. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ontoâ&#x20AC;? is used to indicate movement to a position on an object. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ontoâ&#x20AC;? is an action preposition, if there were such a thing. You walk onto a stage. You fall onto your bed. Your cat leaps onto your face. You get the picture. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On toâ&#x20AC;? is used abstractly to indicate progress toward something, e.g. â&#x20AC;&#x153;moving on to bigger and better things.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;On toâ&#x20AC;? is not used with concrete nouns.

To summarize, you need to tell your co-worker to stop getting on your case. Tell him youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re onto him and his shenanigans, and that he needs to move on to a new hobby. And then pat yourself on the back for how clever that was.

On the day Christians remember as the first Palm Sunday, Jesus rode a donkey down the Mount of Olives from Bethpage to JeruTRAVEL salem. All four Gospels report that Jewish followers acknowledged him as their Messiah by strewing branches (or coats) in his path, an event memorialized in a church near where the so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;triumphal journeyâ&#x20AC;? began.

Another church about halfway down the hill honors a less-well-known event during Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ride. Its construction unearthed some tantalizing suggestions about his earliest followers.

Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ride to Jerusalem followed a narrow road heading west toward the Kidron Valley that lies between the Mount of Olives and the eastern wall of the Temple Mount. According to the Gospel of Luke, as Jesus neared Jerusalem and saw the gleaming temple, he wept as he contemplated the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impending siege and destruction. In 70 A.D., as he reportedly predicted, Roman soldiers demolished the temple following a long and deadly siege of Jerusalem.

Because the Gospel of Luke was written after the destruction of the temple, many Biblical scholars believe hindsight played a role in the report of Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; prophetic weeping. The Crusaders who conquered Jerusalem in 1099 were not so skeptical. Desiring to plant a church wherever they could identify a Biblical tradition, Crusaders built a church where they believed Jesus had wept

for the city. The church became a mosque when Saladin recaptured Jerusalem in 1187 and later fell into ruins. In the 1950s, the Franciscans built a church known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dominus Flevitâ&#x20AC;? (the Lord Wept) near the site of the original Crusader church. The small church, in the form of a teardrop, honors Lukeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story of Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; weeping. An arched window beside a â&#x20AC;&#x153;crown of thorns bushâ&#x20AC;? provides a spectacular view of the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock now atop it.

During construction of Dominus Flevit, workers uncovered small stone boxes called â&#x20AC;&#x153;ossuariesâ&#x20AC;?

first century Jews used to store the bones of their dead. A few ossuaries include what some believe are Christian markings, perhaps indicating that people who welcomed Jesus on the first Palm Sunday may have chosen to rest forever along his path.

Ways to make your outdoors more vibrant

Commentary by Randy Sorrell

The next few months will be an exhilarating rush for happy homeowners who thrive with outdoor living. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to OUTDOORS attack luxury outdoor living on our patios and decks, grilling out, enjoying a craft beer and cranking up Spotify or the music vehicle of choice.

Subway tile trends for 2015

Commentary by David Decker

Please join us!

Friends of Chaucieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Place Breakfast Featuring Paula Sellars, MSW Creator of Stewards of Children A child sexual abuse prevention program for adults.

For generations, homeowners have been adding New York City modernist style to their kitchens and bathrooms by installing INDOORS subway tiles. These rectangular shaped tiles are excellent for creating a current, contemporary look that still feels very timeless. In 2015, subway tiles are being used in everything from backsplash designs to flooring and much more.

The subway tile design first debuted in the New York City underground subway system back in the early 1900s. The sleek, contemporary design quickly caught on with the general public, and soon the entire country was decorating kitchens and bathrooms with 3- by 6-inch, rectangular â&#x20AC;&#x153;subwayâ&#x20AC;? tiles. Over 100 years have passed since those first tiles were laid, and subway tiles remain as popular as ever. Ceramic is still the most popular material for the tiles to be crafted from, because it is easy to clean and maintain. However, subway tiles can be found in almost every color, texture and finish imaginable.

The two most popular places where homeowners install subway tiles are in the kitchen and bathroom. But theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made the leap into other spaces that benefit from easy-care surfaces such as laundry rooms, basements and fireplace surrounds. Visually, the shape of the tile tends to draw the eye upward, which makes the space seem wider and the ceilings appear higher. This is especially true for the larger-sized subway tiles. In terms of maintenance, ceramic subway tiles are tough enough to withstand heavy usage for decades. Simply clean the ceramic tiles with mild, nonabrasive soap to keep them looking shiny and new.

In 2015, a few subway tile trends to look out for center on tile placement, color selection, and

grout choice. Shifting the direction of the tiles can radically alter the look you are creating.

Many homeowners are choosing to install subway tiles vertically, instead of horizontally, which makes the ceiling look higher than it actually is.

This trend is being utilized in shower surrounds and bathrooms so that small spaces feel a little more luxurious. You can even use subway tiles to create distinctive border or frame patterns as well. Subway tiles are an excellent way to throw in a pop of color that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overwhelm the space. Popular colors this season include solid black, and bold primary colors such as Mediterranean blue, deep scarlet or mustard yellow. Use these in your kitchen or vanity backsplash to contrast with a more traditional cabinetry design for a contemporary look. And once a color choice has been selected, choosing a grout color that contrasts with the design is one way of putting a 2015 spin on the subway tile.

DISPATCH Loose gutters â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Years ago, spikes and ferrules were a common method for hanging gutters. They do the job all right, but eventually the spikes work themselves loose. Pounding them back in is a temporary fix at best.

One way to make sure your gutter doesn't fall off the house is to install fascia hanger brackets. Installation is simple: Just hook the bracket under the front lip of the gutter, and then screw the other side of the bracket to the fascia. Leave the old spikes in place â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a spike head looks better than a hole in the gutter. If your shingles overhang your fascia by a few inches or you have steel roofing, buy the brackets with the screws built in (pictured). They cost more, but the head of the screw remains a couple of inches away from the fascia, making them a lot easier to install. Source: www.familyhandyman.com

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am 70 years old. I have been taking medication for blood pressure and cholesterol. Needless to say, I was worried if I could start an exercise program safely. John Karesh made it a nice, gradual transition and I am surprised what I can do now. I feel better now than when I was in my 50s.â&#x20AC;?
