Council rejects turn signal law

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com The Carmel City Council voted down a proposed ordinance that would have imposed a $100 fine for not using a turn signal when roundabouts exiting a roundabout.

City councilor Ron Carter was the only person on the seven-member council to vote in favor. Councilor Tony Green was absent.

Carter and Mayor Jim Brainard were pushing for the change in city law, emphasizing turn signals are the law throughout Europe where roundabouts are common.

Other states have similar laws, but Indiana does not.

There is a state law that reCarter quires motorists use turn signals 200 feet from approaching an intersection. The law has a $500 fine, and some city officials argued that the statewide law could apply to roundabouts since it only refers to an intersection and not what type. Carter said there would be problems with enforcing the state law when it comes to roundabouts because the 200 feet rule changes the meaning.

Councilor Kevin “Woody” Rider said it would be wrong to enforce a state law differently than Carmel police have done in the past simply because the municipal roundabout ordinance didn’t pass.

Councilor Bruce Kimball suggested removing the $100 fine from the ordinance, but City Attorney Doug Haney said municipal court costs couldn’t be waived, which could be more than $130 for a ticket.

Dispatches

In the end, the council decided against removing the fine and voted on the ordinance as presented.

Carter said he was disappointed that nobody joined him in voting in favor of the ordinance but said he had to vote his conscience and resist political pressure.

“I’ve always believed in voting on what’s in the best interest of the public, not just what the current mood is, especially based on Facebook posting or emails,” he said.

Carter read a statement that said Carmel needed to “be a leader” when it comes to such traffic laws, comparing the ordinance to the city taking the risk of installing the first roundabout.

He said he knew it wouldn’t pass Rider but urges the mayor to begin an education campaign to encourage people to use turn signals in roundabouts. He said the cost of putting signs at city roundabouts would be less than $2,000.

Councilor Jeff Worrell said he does support revisiting the idea in the future, but only after a successful education campaign.

“I’ve talked to too many people that don’t intuitively get it, and we haven’t done any education so far,” he said.

Council President Sue Finkam said confusion exists about how and when to use turn signals in roundabouts, and therefore she wouldn’t support a fine at this time.

“I am philosophically in support of using turn signals in roundabouts, but we can do better in rolling this out,” she said.

New police chief – Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard has appointed Jim Barlow to be the next chief of the Carmel Police Dept., replacing retiring chief Tim Green. Jim BarBarlow low has been with CPD for 34 years, the last six years serving as assistant chief. Brainard also appointed Jeff Horner and Aaron Dietz to assistant chief positions. All changes are effective June 1.

Referendum voting – Early voting for the Carmel Clay Schools replacement referendum is available from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. weekdays through April 28. Saturday voting is available from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 29.

The final day of early voting is from 8 a.m. to noon May 1. All early votes must be cast at the Hamilton County Government & Judicial Center, 1 Hamilton County Square in Noblesville. Voting on Election Day, May 2, is from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. at local precincts.

Candy to return to Carmel’s Fourth of July parade

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com After a meeting with the City of Carmel, the Carmel Rotary Club decided that candy can be distributed this carmelfest year at Fourth of July parade.

Last year the parade committee decided to ban t​ he d ​ istributing of candy because there were concerns about children running into the street and being hit by parade cars.

Barbara Ellis, the 2017 parade director, said

there was a meeting and the City of Carmel offered support and supervision to help avoid any safety concerns. As a result, candy distributing can return.

“We’ve been in on a lot of discussion about this and a lot of thought went into this,” she said. “Previously, we could not get sufficient cooperation from people distributing the candy and the parents watching the kids.

Trust me​,​we bounced back on this so much last year. Obviously, there are a lot of safety concerns still but the city is going to be a

huge factor to provide the manpower needed for supervision. We really thank the City of Carmel for this cooperation.”

Ellis said the safety concerns were real last year and that there were a lot of close calls in the past. She said everyone feels confident that this solution will ease concerns.

“It should make a lot of people happy,” she said. “It appears that candy will come back but under safer conditions.”

This story will be updated as more details on candy distributing are announced.

Range Line Road goes on a ‘diet’

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com With more cars on the roads, some cities decide to create additional lanes on certain streets. The City of transportation Carmel is planning to do the opposite.

With more than 20,000 cars traveling on Range Line Road daily, and more coming in the future as new office buildings are under construction, Carmel is putting put Range Line on a “diet” by eliminating lanes and creating a center median.

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said the city will spend $13.4 million on the transformation of Range Line Road between Main Street and Executive Drive. It includes new roundabouts, bike paths and more.

IMPROVING SAFETY Brainard said medians help slow traffic and reduce head-on collisions. He refers to the center-turn lane on parts of Range Line Road as the “suicide lane” because cars in both directions can turn left there.

Although fewer lanes might mean slower speeds, Brainard said the city will remove traffic lights and install more roundabouts so cars spend less time waiting at red lights.

“When you add more lanes, all we’re really doing in our opinion is building a larger parking lot,” he said. “Under this plan, cars will be going slower even though they’ll be flowing just as fast if not faster because of the wait time at intersections.”

Brainard said similar “road diet” projects throughout the country resulted in an 88 percent reduction in accidents with injury because of slower driving speeds, safer pedestrian paths and the increased safety of roundabouts.

BEAUTIFYING THE AREA Brainard said Range Line Road is already an important corridor, so it’s important to beautify the street, which will help turn it into a hub of economic activity for local merchants. Brainard said there will be lots of new trees, but they likely won’t obstruct views of traffic. Public art also is part of the plan.

In addition, Brainard said overhanging wires from traffic lights are unsightly, so it’s better to replace them with new roundabouts at Executive Drive, City Center Drive and 4th Street. A new roundabout opened in late 2016 at Carmel Drive, and new roundabouts also will be added at Medical Drive and 116th Street, although that is south of the “road diet” project. The next planned roundabout is for City Center Drive, with construction set to start after April 24 and

lasting until July 1. Brainard said it will be complete before the city’s annual Fourth of July parade.

All of the roundabouts will have two lanes.

PEDESTRIAN-FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT Not all of the sidewalks connect along Range Line Road, and in some places there is no bike lane or sidewalk. The city will add 8-foot-wide mixed used paths and cycle tracks on the east side with a physical barrier to protect cyclists.

With the elimination of traffic lights, pedestrians and cyclists can no longer on until a red or green light to cross an intersection. As a result, the city will build midblock pedestrian crosswalks to enhance the pedestrian experience. They will be similar to Clay Terrace with a raised surface and a motion-activated crossing light so motorists can either slow down or come to a stop to allow pedestrians to cross.

Brainard also noted that medians provide an “island” of sorts for safe pedestrian crossing.

TURNING LEFT Some local business owners along Range Line Road were in attendance during the announcement April 17 and had questions about customers or delivery trucks getting to their businesses. Brainard said in some places the median will eliminate the easy left turn, but he said there will be curb cuts in some places and motorists can always travel up to the next roundabout and turn around to enter a business.

The project will be funded through previously passed local improvement bonds.

A video that shows the project is available to view at youtu.be/fmvDiEtf3tQ.

Council supports CCS referendum Compiled by Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com The Carmel City Council met April 17 to discuss the Carmel Clay Schools referendum, parking on sidewalks and more.

What happened: The Carmel City Council unanimously voted to support a replacement referendum to fund Carmel Clay Schools.

What it means: On May 2, voters in Carmel will consider whether to renew the referendum for Carmel Clay Schools at a rate of $0.19 at $100 per assessed property value. The Carmel City Council unanimously passed a resolution to support the referendum and encourage residents to vote in favor. If not passed, Carmel Clay Schools officials have said approximately 300 employees could lose their jobs.

What happened: The council gave the city approval to seek to purchase a list of properties valued at more than $25,000.

What it means: The City of Carmel is looking at pieces of land throughout the 96th Street corridor that might need to be purchased for construction of roundabouts. Some of these can be small portions of land and not all are valued at more than $25,000.

What happened: The Carmel City Council voted 4-2 to pass a law prohibiting parking on sidewalks and bike paths.

What it means: Carmel already has a law that bans motorized vehicles from traveling on sidewalks and bike paths, but this law penalizes people for parking there as well. Motorized wheelchairs are exempt and some people can apply for a temporary permit if there’s a reason to park there. Some businesses said they need to park their vehicles on paths and sidewalks because of certain construction and maintenance jobs.

Carmel gymnast remembered

By Heather Collins news@currentincarmel.com Larry Mayer, Jr., was a great athlete, but those who knew him well also remember him as a wonderful in memoriam person.

The Carmel native died April 17 in Columbus, Ohio, after being struck by a semi-truck when he exited his car after it slid off the road.

Mayer, 24, competed on the Ohio State men’s gymnastics team from 2012 to 2015.

He was the state champion on floor exercise and vault in 2011, and that same year placed second in the nation in the Junior Olympics on vault.

He was completing a sports management internship at Ohio State and had planned to begin coaching at the Indiana Gymnastic’s Center in Franklin in May. He was a long-time member of DeVeau’s School of Gymnastics in Fishers.

Jeff Greene, a Carmel resident, coached Mayer for more than 12 years.

“He was just a bundle of energy. He had a huge heart,” Greene said. “He was very giving to everybody. He’s somebody everybody loved.”

Prepare with zombie apocalypse

Earlier date, new course among 2018 Carmel Marathon changes

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Carmel Marathon founder and race director Todd Oliver has some big changes in store for 2018. running EARLIER DATE The race will move to March 31. This will do two things: put Carmel Marathon weekend during Carmel Clay Schools spring break and make the race one of the first major Midwest marathons on the spring calendar.

Oliver said the move will hopefully increase participation in the marathon and half marathon events because it will have fewer calendar conflicts with other races, like the Boston Marathon, and provide more time between the 500 Festival Mini Marathon, Kentucky Derby Marathon and Flying Pig Marathon in Cincinnati. The earlier date also is expected to appeal to runners nationwide who want to run a marathon before it gets too warm. He said runners could qualify for the Boston Marathon at the Carmel Marathon and still have enough time in between races to rest up to run the other popular Midwest races.

Oliver said there was a lot of debate about whether to schedule the Carmel Mar-

athon during CCS spring break because a lot of Carmel residents leave town for vacation. He said he knows many local runners might be disappointed that there could be a conflict, but he noted hey could leave a little earlier for their trip and still compete in the race.

In addition, Oliver said scheduling during spring break could ease burdens on local businesses because of road closures for the race. Because spring break might already be a slow week for them, he said the closures won’t hurt business as much.

In fact, he said the 5,000 to 6,000 people the event brings into town could mean an added boost for restaurants and hotels during a traditionally slow week.

The earlier date also gives runners more time between the Carmel Marathon week-

end and the Mini Marathon in Indianapolis in May for those who want to run in both but are concerned about how close together they are on the calendar.

NEW COURSE Oliver said there will be changes to the course. To improve the spectator and participant experience, the half marathon and the marathon will now run together for the first 13 miles. This allows for bigger crowds cheering on both races and will help the Carmel Marathon when it’s critiqued nationally, he said.

The new course won’t extend all the way to River Road and will instead shift with seven miles now on the west side of US 31. This is expected to eliminate many of the traffic hotspots, including River Road, Cherry Tree/Hazel Dell and Old Meridian and Smoky Road restrictions. In addition, by combining the first 13 miles of the marathon and half marathon, traffic restrictions will be reduced and fewer police officers and medical crews will be needed.

The start/finish line will remain the same, which is just near the Palladium, and runners will still get to run down Main Street in the Carmel Arts & Design District, a popular spectator location.

B

EXPO MIGHT MOVE Oliver said there’s an opportunity to move the packet pickup and Fitness Expo with the date change. One location high on Oliver’s list is Carmel High School because the school will be on spring break. The Fitness Expo has been held at the Monon Community Center since the event started, but the size of the event has outgrown the number of parking spaces. Oliver said moving it to CHS could allow for more parking and would involve the high school in the big weekend.

Oliver also said there’s an opportunity to have a 5K on CHS grounds the night before the Carmel Marathon because lots of runners nationwide are interested in “challenge events” where they earn a special medal by competing in races on both days.

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR DEALS Oliver is considering unveiling his race map at the expo for the Mini Marathon in May, and there could be a limited-time offer to register for Carmel Marathon’s March 31 date for only $31 as a special “Carmel Marathon 2.0” promotion. He said he would expect a lot of people would take advantage of the deal because the full marathon can cost up to $95.

Indy 500 driver makes request

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Children’s TherAplay staff figured IndyCar driver Stefan Wilson would be a perfect teammate for Yerick Colon for the second annual Horsepower 500.

Yerick, who has the theraplay ataxia and dystonia forms of cerebral palsy, has struggled with his grief over losing a therapy dog, Dorian, in September, and then his physical therapist, Jen Grillo, who died in a car accident in November.

“Losing those two were so hard for him,” said his mother, Rossy Flores.

Wilson’s older brother, Justin, suffered a traumatic brain injury when he was struck in the head by large debris from another car during a race at Pocono in August 2015.

He died the following day.

“One of the questions we asked Stefan is if he would be willing to share his loss with Yerick,” said Shannon Wade, TherAplay marketing programs manager. “You can see Stefan has a huge heart for the kids.”

The fundraiser pairing Indy 500 drivers with TherAplay patients is set for 3 p.m.

May 9 at Children’s TherAplay, 9919 Towne Rd., Carmel. Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for children 12 and younger. Children 2 and younger are admitted free. TherAplay is an outpatient rehabilitation clinic for children with special needs. One facet is its hippotherapy, which uses equine movement as therapy. Hippos is the Greek word for horse.

The Indy 500 drivers ride adaptive tricycles, and the children partners put a carrot in their mouth for the final leg of the race.

Wilson and Yerick are on Team Rocky, representing TherAplay’s popular therapy horse.

Yerick, a sixth-grader at North Wayne Elementary School in Indianapolis, will turn 13 May 4. Since TherAplay is for children 13 and younger, Yerick will graduate the week of April 10.

The staff wanted to give him a special surprise, so they asked Wilson if he would ask Yerick in person to be his partner. He then joined Yerick for his hippotherapy session and other exercises.

“Just going through it a little myself, I can say, ‘Wow, this is a bit of a workout,’” Wilson said. “It’s definitely challenging work for the handlers and the patients.”

Flores said Yerick started at TherAplay when he was 3 years old. He left for a few years to take aquatic therapy.

“He’s doing amazing,” Wilson said of Yerick. “From the time I’ve been around the organization, I can see how much good work it does and how much it helps families.”

Twins look to repeat success

The twins were on science bowl the winning Creekside Middle School team at the middle school level in 2013.

They are members of a Carmel High School team participating in the National Science Bowl April 27 to May 1 in Washington, D.C. Juniors Xuchen Wei, Allen Zhang and sophomore Kevin Liu are the other members. Melissa is serving as an alternate.

“We want to be back on stage for finals this year,” Brendan said. “Melissa and I have the experience of being in finals, but Kevin, Xuchen and Allen don’t. Our hope is for them to have the same experience. In total, this is the fourth year Melissa and I will be attending National Science Bowl.”

CHS chemistry teacher Ginny Kundrat, Science Bowl sponsor, said this “team has been a highly motivated group spending hours of work each week preparing for Science Bowl.”

“We prepare through buzzer practice and personal study,” Brendan said.

Before regionals they scrimmaged with the CHS B and C teams. Now they are scrimmaging against teams across the nation through Skype.

Brendan said much of the motivation comes from losing the Indiana regional tournament in 2016.

“We assumed we would have an easy time beating out the other teams due to our greater experience, especially from going to nationals three times already,” Brendan said. “We didn’t study or practice enough, so we finished second to Park Tudor High School. This year, our regional tournament (March 11) was a lot better. We finished first and the Carmel High School B Team finished second.”

Chess team wins state title

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com The Smoky Row Elementary School Chess Team A recently won the state championship at the 48th anACHIEVEMENT nual 2017 Scholastic Chess of Indiana Team Championships in Hammond. The team consists of second-grader Edward Chen and third-graders Drew Kim, Timothy Lim and Aditya Poduval.

Each of the boys learned to play around age 5.

The boys had never played in a team tournament prior to the event. Coach Aaron Dean felt the team had a good chance to win when it first formed.

“We were really happy, because no one really knew us,” Lim said.

The students competed against 54 other teams. Each team consisted of four players and played six matches.

“Our team together got 5 1/2 points, so we got five wins and tied Canterbury School on the last match,” Kim said.

Chen served as the team captain, which meant he had to watch every match his team played.

The boys love the strategy.

“I like looking moves ahead,” Poduval said.

The boys practice together once a week but also practice at home.

“I play every day,” Chen said.

Smoky Row also has a Chess Team B, which is learning from Team A. Their coach, teachers and parents are proud of their accomplishment.

“They’re all so smart,” Smoky Row Principal Kim Barrett said.

Each boy wants to continue playing competitive chess in the future.

“I want to be the world chess champion,” Poduval said.

Keira Hacker has always had a passion for reading, but she never knew it would turn into something so education big.

That is until her fifthgrade teacher, Jacy Schneider, introduced Genius Hour to her College Wood Elementary class in August. Google designed Genius Hour to allow employees to devote 20 percent of their time to a project of their choosing. Schneider incorporated it in the classroom by giving students one hour each week to work on their own project.

“I thought it was a good, fun and relevant way for them to learn more of what they want to learn,” Schneider said.

Hacker used the time to create For The Love of Books, a nonprofit that provides books to those that don’t have many at home.

“I think that reading is a fun hobby, and everyone should be able to do it whenever they want or wherever,” Hacker said.

“Books, especially fiction and fantasy, can take you out of your life and put you into the life of the characters of that book.”

Keira Hacker’s collection spanned an entire hallway at the Stout Field Elementary food pantry Dec. 19, 2016.

All leftover books were donated to students the following day at a choir concert. (Submitted photo)

Hacker started her project by researching other nonprofits. She reached out to the community through social media to spread the word and collect books. She collected more than 1,000 books, donating them to the food pantry at Stout Field Elementary after reading a newspaper article about it.

“That made me think that if they needed help with food, they probably don’t have enough money for books, either,” Hacker said.

Hacker donated her books Dec. 19, 2016.

She said patrons at the food pantry were surprised to see books available with no limit to how many they could take.

Hacker is already working on her next project, building a little free library with her friend to donate to other schools.

Schneider also is excited to collaborate with other schools in the district for more book drives.

To donate books, contact Hacker at forloveofbooks13@gmail.com.

Walking tour app launched

By Desiree Williams news@currentincarmel.com After months of collaboration with Ball State University history professor Ronald Morris and his stuCCHS dents, the Carmel Clay Historical Society launched the Carmel Self-Guided Walking Tour app at a press conference April 20.

The app focuses around the Monon Trail and Main Street. Users Ehrgott can click on location markers to see historic photographs, which they can slide over to compare photos from the past and present. Each marker also includes a written history and audio recording so users can continue the tour without stopping to read.

“With all of the changes that have been going on in Carmel, we want people to be aware that we do have a past,” said Emily Ehrgott, CCHS executive director. “It’s not just all brand new, shiny and clean. There were things here that were viable to this town becoming

a town. It was important.”

Ehrgott joined CCHS after purchasing a historic home from Indiana Landmarks four years ago. She started on the board and became executive director in January.

Ehrgott said the app is the “brain child” of Morris. He approached Virginia Terpening, a CCHS volunteer, with his idea and the project took off from there.

Morris invited BSU students from a variety of departments, including history and computer science, to collaborate on the “immersive learning project.”

CCHS supplied the photos and historical information, but the students created the location markers on the map and recorded the historical narratives.

“Hopefully, it allows residents in Carmel, new and old, to revisit what used to be there,” Ehrgott said.

CCHS is working with Morris and his students again this semester to develop phase two. They want to create a driving tour extension of the app that will encompass more of Clay Township.

The first phase of the app is available free at carmelclayhistory.org.

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Relocation of a Minor Child

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

The process of going through a divorce is not only emotionally draining, but can also be somewhat daunting and overwhelming when trying to re-group and start anew. Knowing all details about future plans, is virtually unrealistic. Oftentimes, through the divorce process, some parents may have a temporary residence until they determine their next best step. Or, further on down the road, re-marriage might occur, making a change in residence inevitable. No matter what the reason, all of these scenarios may lead a parent to seek to relocate with a minor child.

Consequently, when relocation is at issue, there are several specific steps a parent must take in order to ensure he or she is complying with Indiana law.

Formal notice must be given to the non-relocating parent. In such a circumstance, the relocating individual must provide formal notice to the non-relocating parent ninety (90) days prior to any relocation. However, some circumstances make it so that the relocation may not be readily known ninety (90) days in advance. If that is the case, it is still best to file as soon as possibly close to when the relocation is known, but such notice must be filed no later than thirty (30) days prior to the actual move.

By law, a formal Notice of Intent to Relocate must include certain information. This information includes the following: the current and proposed residential addresses; whether the relocating individual’s contact information will change and if so, the new contact information; the date of the proposed relocation; the reason for the proposed relocation; and notice that the non-relocating individual must object to any proposed relocation within sixty (60) days from the date of his or her receipt of the Notice of Intent to Relocate and may request a modification of custody and/or parenting time.

A relocating parent must file this notice even if there is no Court Order regarding parenting time or custody and the matter is only pending before the court awaiting hearing. Further, there is no distance requirement for relocating individuals. In fact, the Indiana General Assembly repealed the distance requirement, making it so that a relocating parent must file a Notice of Intent to Relocate regardless of the distance involved in a proposed relocation. However, oftentimes, there are many instances where there is no objection to a proposed relocation, especially when a parent is moving only a short distance, like down the

street.

In the event that the non-relocating individual objects to the proposed relocation of the minor child, the court will set the matter for a hearing on the contested relocation. Relocation matters are very challenging, for the court will not restrict a parent from moving, but the court can restrict the parent from moving the minor child. At hearing, the relocating individual bears the burden to show that the proposed relocation of the minor children is made for a good faith and legitimate reason. If the initial burden is deemed to have been met, the burden then shifts to the non-relocating individual to show that the proposed relocation is not in the child(ren)’s best interest.

In contemplating whether to grant or deny the relocation the court will consider several factors, especially any factor that would affect the best interest of the child. These factors include the following: the distance involved in the proposed relocation; the hardship and expense involved for the nonrelocating individual to exercise parenting time; the feasibility of preserving the relationship between the nonrelocating individual and the child(ren) through suitable parenting time, including consideration of the financial circumstances of the parties; whether there is an established pattern of conduct by the relocating individual, including actions by the relocating individual to either promote or thwart a nonrelocating individual's contact with the child(ren); and the reasons provided by the relocating individual for seeking relocation and nonrelocating parent for opposing the relocation of the child.

Depending upon the distance, in the event of the relocation of either parent, should distance become a factor in exercising parenting time, the Court may order that either party exercise parenting time “When Distance is a Major Factor” as outlined in the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines or that which the circumstances may warrant.

Couple hosts winning pianist

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel resident Janet Nine embraces her role as a host for American Pianists Association competitors. music “It’s been a joy to have to spend multiple visits with them as they come and go in the Indianapolis area,” said Nine, an APA board member. “To drive from Carmel to our events downtown, it’s 30 minutes. You really get to know these guys, because they’re trapped in your car.”

Janet and her husband, John, hosted Drew Petersen, who was named the 2017 American Pianists Awards winner this month after a 13-month competition, earning the Christel DeHaan Classical Fellowship. It was Petersen’s third stay with the Nines. Petersen was one of five finalists who performed in a week of solo recitals, chamber concerts, the premiere of a commissioned work and outreach performances. Petersen, from Oradell, N.J., graduated from Harvard at age 19 and will graduate from his master’s program at Juilliard School in June. He will enroll in the Juilliard prestigious Artist Diploma program in the fall.

The APA award, given every four years to a classical pianist, is valued at $100,000. It includes a recording contract with Steinway & Sons, two years of career advancement and support, abundant performance opportunities and a $50,000 cash prize.

Petersen will perform a concert exclusively for donors to APA at the Nine home.

Finding my forever home

Commentary by Julie Osborne and Toto, the dog

Enjoy six decades of nostalgic fun, food and fashion !

It was cold. My paws felt frozen to the cement patio even though 16 of us were jammed together for warmth. pets Summer was the opposite — unbearably hot. It smelled bad, too.

My favorite time was mealtime, although my “friends” would squeeze me out and I often got trampled. My six pounds could not compete with their 60, but I never gave up.

One fall day, everything changed. People in uniforms arrived at the house, and we were taken to a place called 4 Precious Paws Rescue. The people were nice and gave us food, toys and lots of love. It was wonderful — except for the shots and the big pills, that is.

Not long after that, we were moved again, but this time we ended up in a place with tons of dog stuff. I was nervous as people picked me up. But as one woman cradled me in her arms, my worries began to drift away. As I looked up, I liked the smile glancing back at me, along with her comforting words. There was another stranger, too, whom she called her daughter. When they found out my name was

Toto, the daughter exclaimed, “Looks like you found your dog, Mom!” That was five months ago, and today I couldn’t be happier. Sure, I still have a lot to learn, but I feel loved like I have never felt before. And the cuddling, it never stops.

What started on a cold patio ended on a lap — Oz’s lap. And, as I look up at her eyes now, I know that the journey of Toto and Oz has just begun!

Indeed, there’s no place like home.

Toto and Julie Osborne (aka “Oz”) met unexpectedly when Toto was rescued from a hoarding situation after being mistreated and malnourished. You can follow their journey at julieosborne.com.

Carmel residents make full-time jobs out of reviewing board games on ‘Man vs Meeple’

By Heather Collins news@currentincarmel.com Carmel residents, YouTube stars and board game enthusiasts Jeremy Salinas and David Waybright are coverstory leveling up their love for board games as fulltime hosts of “Man vs Meeple,” an online show highlighting the board game industry.

Salinas, 42, a former product distribution analyst in the video game industry, and Waybright, 47, a former video game strategy guide publisher, joined forces to create and host a broadcast-quality, ESPN-style show delving into all things board games.

They film “Man vs Meeple” on a set in Salinas’ basement.

Waybright said board gaming is a fun hobby that most people have stereotyped.

“At our our heart, we want to evangelize this hobby,” Salinas said.

Salinas started the “Man vs Meeple” Youtube channel in 2009. It now has more than 20,000 subscribers and 2.5 million views. A meeple is as a small human-shaped figure used as a playing piece in board games and is a symbol that is strongly associated with the gaming industry. The word is a blend of “my” and “people.”

Salinas and Waybright daily follow the latest trends and news in the board game industry and review, film, edit, post and create original graphics and animations for their weekly show. They also invite board game developers and designers to be featured guests.

“We wanted to do something that made the industry a little more legitimate,” Waybright said.

Salinas and Waybright said the industry happened to take off at the right time for the duo to launch the show.

According to internet magazine Casual Game Insider, online board game resource Board Game Geek reported an estimated 3,900 new board games were released in 2016.

Salinas and Waybright said crowdfunding via websites has help jump-start the resurgence of board games and allowed individual game developers to turn their ideas into reality. Casual Game Insider

still in its growing phase,” Waybright said.

The “Man vs Meeple” creators believe the board game industry is still in transition, noting the recent expansion of retail space for board games on big box store shelves.

With such an influx in available board games, “Man vs Meeple” helps enthusiasts sift through and discover the latest games. The show hosts aim to be the top news source for happenings in the David Waybright and Jeremy Salinas on the set of “Man vs Meeple” in the board game industry. basement of Salinas’ Carmel home.

“If we play the games a few times, we have more than enough ammunition to sit down and talk about it,” Salinas said.

international table top day On April 29, “Man vs Meeple” will travel to Burbank, Calif., and join forces with YouTube channel “Geek & Sundry” to celebrate the fourth annual International Tabletop Day, a worldwide celebration of the tabletop gaming community and industry.

Indianapolis-area establishments celebrating International Tabletop Day include Family Time Games and The Game Preserve. The Game Preserve’s store at 1551 E. Stop 12 Rd. in Indianapolis will have a full day of gaming on-site from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. that will include free promotions and game demos.

“Man vs Meeple” hosts Jeremy Salinas and David Waybright expect the following games will be among the best releases of 2017:

Santorini “Man vs Meeple” said Santorini adds an updated visual look to classic games like chess and checkers and infinite possibilities for fun and addictive game play. Santorini is a game developed by a doctor for educational purposes and is recommended for family and classroom use.

Braintopia According to “Man vs Meeple,” Braintopia is like Lumosity in a box. The game incorporates interactive brain-twisters.

“Man vs Meeple” suggests Braintopia as a family game.

A tale of mice, hash browns and Walmart

o b s e r v ation Strong schools worth the investment

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker Spendthrift is one of those words, like military intelligence, that means something different than one might imagine. It does not indicate that one “spends thriftily” but, instead, that one is extravagant. If we are lucky, weekly paychecks will come – and go – with very little notice.

Certainly, we support the needs of good government and our fellow humans.

Yet, rarely do we dig deeper into our own monthly budgets to make others’ flow more easily. Rightly, we challenge tax increases and push for fiscal prudence when spending our hard-earned income, property and other assets. We demand thoughtful and strict management – not for our convenience or greed, but from a well-placed expectation of those elected and selected to work on our behalf.

So comes now, the new phenomena, in our home state, at least, of the school referendum. Some demand steep increases or threaten dire consequences. A district a few short miles to the north of here is already divesting itself of buildings, teachers and programs to stay afloat. But our own local schools are working to prove value as they hope that we taxpayers consider a reinvestment in their work – and their outcomes. Carmel Clay Schools, for example, is proposing a replacement for an expiring rate without increase.

Our citizenry is among the best-educated in the nation. Strong schools can ensure that we keep it that way. Supporting these referendums seems both affordable and essential. Spend with thrift, yes, but spend as necessary.

READER ’ S V I EW Koch brothers interfering with Hoosier democracy (again) Editor, The Koch brothers are at it again via their Americans for Prosperity Super PAC office in Carmel. It will support 6th District Congressman Luke Messer’s potential challenge to Sen. Joe Donnelly in 2018.

Given that Tea Partier Messer has long ties to the Kochs (he served as legal counsel to Koch Industries in the late 1990s), this move is not surprising. They were able to help secure Todd Young’s Senate victory with a $4 million contribution. That’s an insignificant sum to these guys.

Hoosiers should not stand by as the Koch brothers attempt to buy Donnelly’s seat and gain massive influence over our state. Unlike Donnelly, who has earned a reputation as a moderate, Messer reliably backs economic elites like the Kochs.

Newspapers in his eastern Indiana district have criticized him for supporting policies that favor the wealthy at the expense of his lower middle class constituents. It is no coincidence that in his three campaigns for Congress, Messer received little support from small individual donations.

In 2016, over half of his campaign purse came from dark money, with a nearly equal proportion supplied by big corporations, especially insurance companies.

A review of Messer’s congressional record shows two clear obsessions — repealing the Affordable Care Act and defunding Planned Parenthood, both of which benefit many people in the 6th District. Messer is remarkably short on coherent substitutes for these services and has been called out for his use of misleading numbers and debunked theories in support of his far-right social agenda. He also voted to shut down the federal government in 2013 over the ACA. The similarities to Mike Pence, Messer’s predecessor in Congress, should not be missed by enlightened Hoosiers.

Thanks to Citizens United, the Koch brothers are in Indiana making another investment that they hope will pay off handsomely. Hoosiers should make sure that their voices, not the Kochs’, are heard in 2018.

Jim Blessing, Carmel

I don’t always shop outside of my neighborhood grocery store, but when I do, I prefer Walmart. There. I said it. I humor love the cheap stuff. I love the diversity of clientele and I love that there’s a strong possibility I’ll spot a mouse in cosmetics (true story). My husband Doo feels differently and won’t step foot in the retail giant unless forced to do so under threat of death. He cites shoddy products, horror movie fluorescent lighting and the fact that the sheer number of customers at any given time is in clear violation of the fire code. I think he’s a snob.

Recently, I had to go to Walmart twice on the same day, unusual for me as I live less than a mile from Meijer. My first run was to pick up invitations at the photo department. Doo agreed to drop me off, though he absolutely refused to go in (chicken!). Boy, did he miss out. In that short five minutes (well, more like 20), I saw beautiful Easter lilies for $3.98 (Meijer’s were $7 and Lowe’s $19.99!), a young couple having an extremely vocal argument over dog food and about 20 items I didn’t know I needed until I did. I had a fascinating conversation with the cashier over my preferred brand of sunscreen while enjoying the sweet, sweet smell of baking bread at the in-store Subway. For my final act of amazement, I found Doo in the parking lot in under three minutes.

Later, I returned to Walmart because Meijer, Kroger and Target were all out of shredded hash brown potatoes. I know! Bizarre.

Walmart didn’t have them, either, but I did make two new friends in the frozen vegetable aisle as we lamented the scarcity of spuds and wondered whether cubed-style might be a realistic substitute.

I’m a loyal Meijer customer, but I do love a good Walmart adventure.

Peace out.

READERS ’ V I EWS We all win if referendum passes Editor, Six years ago, my family moved from Fairfield, Conn., to Carmel. When you have young children everything about a move revolves around them, especially where the best schools are located. It was only a matter of seconds for us to realize there was no question where we would be living: Carmel, Ind., was our new city.

Since the first day we moved into Carmel and walked into West Clay Elementary, we knew we had made the right decision and not once have we looked back. Chris Mautner, the secretary at WCE, was the first person we met and she immediately took my daughters by the hand, walked them

to their classrooms and told us everything was going to be great. And she was right.

The replacement referendum vote is going to be May 2. This referendum is not about adding more to our schools, it is about keeping our schools at the high standards we currently enjoy. We need to keep every single staff member and extra programs. They are part of why our schools are so great.

I implore all of your to get out on Tuesday, May 2, to vote for the referendum. We all win if this passes. And it is no coincidence that Niche once again voted Carmel as the best place to live. Why do they keep voting this way? Schools!

Lauren Price, Carmel

Vote Yes! to support Carmel schools

EVERY VOTE

MATTERS!

PLEASE VOTE YES ON MAY 2ND!

Editor, If you asked 100 people why they moved to Carmel, I would bet that nearly all — if not all — would list Carmel’s phenomenal schools as one of the top three reasons.

Either because they have a child in the school system, because they see the positive impact a great school district has on their property value, or because they understand the impact a great school system has on business recruitment/economic development.

Which is exactly why we, as a community, need to pull together and vote yes for our school district’s replacement referendum vote May 2. This is not a new tax. It is a replacement referendum; we are keeping

up what we’re already doing. The education tax will remain flat at .83.

In 2010, Carmel residents passed an operational referendum for our schools. This referendum is coming due, so we need to vote yes May 2 to keep this money in place.

If the referendum doesn’t pass, the district will have to eliminate 260 positions as well as academic programs that aren’t required for graduation.

This is actually a special election, so there will be nothing else on the ballot May 2. If we don’t go vote yes for this replacement referendum, it won’t pass.

Please go to carmelschoolsyes.com for more information.

An open letter to President Trump Editor, Thank you Mr. President. You are Making America Great Again (You are the president and I am not). Thanks to you, I am so tired of winning that my head is spinning. Believe me, now that you and Speaker Ryan are working hand-in-glove, we are certain to get out of this mess left by the previous president. As you said, the decision not to repeal Obamacare, which is a disaster and is going to implode anyway, is the fault of the Democrats. They own it now. Sad. Who knew health care was so complicated?

And this thing about Russia. That is just fake news. Like you, Mr. Putin is a strong leader, so strong that his critics often end

up dead. I guess they would rather die than stay on his bad side. You, on the other hand, have so many people who love you there’s no need for anyone to die, unless you really do repeal Obamacare.

Count me among the 40 percent of Americans who believe you’re doing a great job. I mean, who besides you could ban Muslims, defeat ISIS and make the cheating NATO members send us all of those checks?

There is so much more to praise. I didn’t even mention the wall or a possible trade war with China. But, hey, I don’t want you to get a big head. Keep up the good work.

Caving in on sleep Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Arshid Chowdhury has invented something called a sleep pod, a high-tech structure that can be seen in sevhumor eral airports around the nation. Crawl into the enclosure and you can catch 40 winks for around 20 bucks, or about 50 cents a wink.

Chowdhury’s pods have encountered some problems. Many customers have trouble nodding off while nesting. Some travelers just stare into space with their eyes wide open, something most people can already do at their place of employment and actually get paid for it.

Mr. Chowdhury also writes a blog, another fool-proof way to put people to sleep quickly. His newest entry just last week has an intriguing title: “My wife and I slept in a cave for 10 years.”

Apparently, AC and his wife bought a new home several years ago and discovered it had a windowless, soundproof den tucked away inside. The Chowdhurys then labeled this their sleep cave, although the police have since told the Chowdhurys that the former owners had called it their meth lab.

AC wanted to see what would happen if

the couple slept in a room that was pitch black and totally silent. Of course, they could have just slept in their own bedroom and pulled the shades, but that would have made their blog seem even less interesting.

The Chowdhurys have slept in complete darkness since 2007 but admit there are drawbacks. First, the couple has overslept for all nine jobs they’ve been fired from over the past 10 years. Plus, Mrs. Chowdhury was a morning person who used to gleefully bound out of bed when she awoke, bolting for the front door, eager to start her day. This is tough in a sleep cave. Neighbors had a lot of questions for Mr. Chowdhury about his wife’s frequent head injuries.

Two years ago they had a little baby boy who’s been keeping them awake at night.

He’s not frightened of the dark so much, but the bats are scaring the heck out of him.

Shea BODYWORKS a small business champion

By Chris Bavender • news@currentincarmel.com A business that started as a way for a Carmel mother to help her daughter deal with painful skin issues caused by sports is one of two Indiana businesses to win the ACHIEVEMENT American Small Business Champion recognition from SCORE and Sam’s Club.

“This is a great honor. We are a grassroots company with humble beginnings. When we started it was basically on a wing and a prayer,” said Saidah Pearsall, founder of Shea BODYWORKS. “We have had a lot of missteps since we started, but this kind of validates everything and lets us know our struggles have not been in vain, that we are doing something right.”

Pearsall started the skin and hair care company in 2014 because she couldn’t find a product that helped heal the calluses and rips in her daughter’s skin caused by gymnastics.

“She would put a product on, and it would look like it was working, and then a few minutes later her skin would revert back to the previous condition,” she said. “It was embarrassing for her and painful for me as a mom to watch that.”

A burn victim as a child, Pearsall started to experiment with the items her mom used to help heal her skin.

“It turned into a business with the encouragement of my daughter. She said, ‘This is great, you should sell it,’” Pearsall said. “So, if she had not pushed me I would not have started this.”

Originally called Simply Saidah’s, Pearsall rebranded in 2016 to Shea BODYWORKS because she said no one could pronounce the company’s name.

“People were calling it all different names,” she said. “That is a

marketing issue. When people can’t pronounce it, they can’t find you.”

As an American Small Business Champion, Pearsall received a $1,000 gift card from Sam’s Club – which she will use for office equipment – and an all-expense paid trip to Dallas for a training and networking event. The company also is eligible to win one of three $25,000 grand prizes based on how effectively it utilizes the Sam’s Club gift card and regional training events to grow business revenue.

As for the future, although Pearsall wouldn’t mind the product being carried nationally, she is focused on continuing to grow the business locally. Shea BODYWORKS can be found at Whole Foods in Carmel, Good Earth Natural Foods in Broad Ripple and three The Yoga Studio locations.

“Right now we are in talks with another major retailer, so I hope to be on their shelves by the summer,” Pearsall said.

enVista to employ elite divers

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel-based enVista and Indianapolisbased USA Diving have formed a valuable partnership. jobs It started a year ago when USA Diving starting looking for managed service providers for IT support in Indianapolis, said Terry Powers, vice president of Powers USA Diving. After research, Powers, who manages business operations, discovered enVista was an industry leader.

“So we began discussions on that. The discussions then became how much more can enVista do to help USA Diving,” Powers said. “They were passionate about wanting to help USA Diving, not only as a managed information company, but also as a partner. That led to them being involved in this postgraduate program that will allow us to keep our athletes competing once they graduate from college.”

Powers said the career development program for divers will help them compete in their own pools and provide opportuni-

ties to work and grow in their field of study at enVista while training for the 2020 Olympics.

David Eckel, managing partner of enVista’s IT service department, said the company is working to be as flexible as it can with the divers.

“We want them to not only continue their efforts to become Olympic champions but also to have the Eckel funds to do so,” Eckel said.

“We’ll use our technology to have these athletes work remotely. What we’re trying to do is be able to employ them on their own schedules. For example, if they are practicing during the day and need to able to work in the evening, we’re going to be able to do our best to be able to accommodate that and provide flexible work hours.”

Powers said it’s important to have a supportive partner such as enVista.

“They’re getting experience in a global corporation. They’re getting experience in their field while they’re continuing to train.

That is something that is rare out there right now, ” Powers said.

Boice sisters perform in ‘Music Man’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Ali and Kate Boice have some varied interests but share a love of being on stage.

“They had a friend theater participating in CYT (Christian Youth Theater) come join the class,” their mother Kristen Boice said. “Ali ended up falling in love with the class and asked to do the bigger production. So she started expressing a lot of enthusiasm being part of the process. Ali’s first role was in ‘Annie,’ where she played Sandy, the dog.

Kate went to the show and expressed interest in participating.”

The Boice sisters, from Noblesville, will appear in Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre’s production of “The Music Man” April 28 through May 13 at The Tarkington in the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Kate, 9, a third-grad-

er at Hinkle Creek Elementary, is playing in the children’s ensemble.

“I like the storyline and music, and all the dancing is just amazing,” Kate said.

Ali, 11, a fifth-grader at Legacy Christian School, plays Amaryllis, one of Marion’s young piano students.

“I like the songs, and the choreography is awesome,” Ali said.

The sisters were previously in “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” at Beef & Boards.

“I like acting better because it allows more thinking and concentration,” Kate said. “I still enjoy singing a lot, but I like acting a little better.”

Ali performed a year before her younger sister, who wanted to perform right away but had to wait until she got a bit older.

Kate likes crafts, golf, tennis and running with two dogs, both whippets. Ali emphasized she likes to read a lot and swim.

The first show the sisters did together was Stone Soup Musical Productions’ “Seussical, Jr.” in 2015.

Ali was the director-award recipient for CYT’s “Annie, Jr.” and “Mary Poppins.” She was the 2015-16 Encore nominee for best performance under the age of 18 in a musical for her portrayal of Tiny Tim in The Belfry Theatre’s “A Christmas Carol, the Musical.”

Bravo and a well-deserved standing ovation to my brilliant and kind-hearted friend Gregory Hancock for bringing this magical production that highlights the real superhero of all time, who was a man called Jesus.

Blueprint for Improvement: Creating contemporary first-floor look Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

After

The goal was an updated kitchen with better flow and aesthetics and cosmetically update the family room and adjoining spaces.

1. In the kitchen, the design incorporated taller cabinets, creating more storage. New Cambria quartz countertops, new tile backsplash and new appliances were installed.

The island was enlarged to create more seating and storage. A microwave was added as well.

2. The dry bar was updated with new cabinets and countertops to create additional storage.

3. The living room fireplace was updated with a new, modern gas fireplace insert, tile surround and flanking bookshelves.

4. The powder bath now features a wallpapered accent wall that gives the space the style it was lacking.

5. New dark engineered hardwood flooring was installed throughout the main level.

Before Background Info: This 2004-built home in the Shelborne Park subdivision in Carmel was in need of several aesthetic updates and additional storage.

Before problems: Even though only a 13-year-old home, the owners wanted to update, add storage and create a more stylistic, modern look. The kitchen cabinets were outdated and the island shape and lack of storage created functional challenges. The adjacent living room fireplace and powder bath also were in need of an update.

Life in the slow lane Commentary by Lorene Burkhart Being older than 80 means that I’m in the “Silent Generation” born between 1927 and 1947. We slow down at the roundabouts, probably use the drive-up at the aging bank and post cute things on Facebook, if we use it at all.

This morning I scanned Facebook and was relieved to see that life had not changed since yesterday. There were recipes, videos that someone thought I should see, political rants, pictures of cute pets and children, profound “sayings” to make me a better person but no posts for why I was there — my grandchildren or other relatives sending photos.

Recently, I met my new “granddog” on Facebook. The cute puppy was being held by an equally cute granddaughter who resides in sunny California. My son, who lives in the great northwest, often posts beautiful photos of mountains and streams. Sometimes, it’s golf courses, but at least I know where he is.

I enjoy seeing my eldest brother, who is 92, when he posts a photo of his latest triumph on the golf course (last year, a hole-in-one!).

But enough of that. Facebook is a fun way to communicate, but watch out what you post. It may be seen by unsavory folks who wish you harm. A recent talk at The Stratford by an FBI agent helped us understand what not to do on the internet.

Just because we’re in the “slow lane” doesn’t mean that we don’t know what’s happening in the world. A recent Wall Street Journal article described the rise of the Smart City. Another article spoke about the age of intelligence. I especially liked this quote: “Knowledge is having the right answers, Intelligence is asking the right questions.” Maybe I should post it on Facebook?

I’ve mentioned in a previous column that we have Conversations Clubs. Each has 12 members who meet for dinner once a month to discuss a specific topic. At a recent meeting the topic was “new.” We brought for discussion a new concept, idea, product or whatever we wished to share. One lady had discovered a new brownie mix using Girl Scout Thin Mints. She even prepared them for us. Another shared a new cruise line concept for millenials.

If you feel that you are caught between the slow lane and a faster pace, don’t despair. The boomers will age, the sun will rise in the east and there will always be something new.

Lorene Burkhart resides at The Stratford in West Clay. She is the author of seven books.

Cardo Maximus in Apamea, Syria (Photo by Don Knebel)

Apamea threatened by war Commentary by Don Knebel An historic Roman city near Hama, Syria, is among the archaeological treasures threated by Syria’s continued travel civil war.

In 300 B.C., Seleucus Nicator, one of Alexander the Great’s generals, who had conquered much of the Middle East, established a city along the Orontes River named Apamea in honor of his wife. Apamea became an important military center in the Seleucid Empire, home to 500 war elephants that Seleucus had obtained in a trade with an Indian emperor. In 64 B.C., Pompey captured Apamea and annexed it to the Roman Empire. The Romans then erected a 20,000-seat theater, one of the largest in the empire. Mark Anthony and Cleopatra visited Apamea during their honeymoon in 37 B.C., when the city had a population of approximately 100,000. During the Jewish Revolt that began in 66 A.D., Apamea sheltered its Jewish residents from Roman soldiers.

After an earthquake destroyed much of Apamea in 115 A.D., Roman Emperor Trajan reconstructed the Cardo Maximus, a 1.2-mile-long main street lined by 1,200,

30-foot-high columns and intersected every 360 feet by side streets. The 68-foot-wide street was among the largest and most famous streets in the Roman Empire, passing temples, shops and baths. Some of the stone columns had unique spiral fluting along their entire length. In the sixth century, Byzantine Emperor Justinian repaired Apamea’s Cardo Maximus, adding walkways and replacing paving stones. A few years later, the Persians destroyed the city and partially rebuilt it. Apamea was demolished by an earthquake in 1152.

By 2010, approximately 400 columns along Apamea’s Cardo Maximus had been reconstructed, along with a few decorative arches marking the intersections. Some of the businesses lining the street, including a brothel, could be identified by stone signs. Recent satellite images show that Apamea has been the victim of extensive and destructive wartime looting.
