Benedict said although the vote has been delayed, public meetings and studies will continue.

“We can have an income tax from 10 to 25 cents per dollar,” Benedict said, answering the question many public members had regarding raising the tax in the future. “Twenty-five cents is the max. We have no opportunity to change it. It’s set.”

Benedict did add that the law requiring a maximum of 25 cents per $100 could be changed, therefore allowing for a higher tax.

“If you quit investing in infrastructure, infrastructure crumbles. … We have to live within the means of the tax. We don’t have any options,” she said. “It’s like any infrastructure investment. … There’s no doubt you’ve got to make smart choices, live within your means and project well.”

“There are a lot of things you can affect and a lot of things you can’t,” he said. “Storms are going to come, but the question is whether you are making yourself strong enough to handle anything that happens.”

Landrieu talked about adopting the nation’s first “resilience plan.” He said building up levees isn’t always the best plan. He said some plans need to allow water needs to be let in to help the environment and make it more resilient when it comes to flooding.

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard, co-chair of the Energy Independence and Climate Protection Task Force at the U.S. environment Conference of Mayors, led a session at the annual event in Indianapolis on June 26.

Brainard spoke along with New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu in a meeting room at the J.W. Marriott Hotel shortly after the grand ballroom speech featuring the Dalai Lama and Lady Gaga.

During the working task force meeting for mayors, participants shared ideas about how to create more energy-efficient cities and promote energy independence.

“We heard from experts on how to measure carbon emissions,” Brainard said. “That’s very important to have a baseline and be able to measure it. We heard from mayors of coastal cities that are already dealing with the impact of sea-level rise.”

Landrieu talked about resiliency, in light of disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, in his speech on climate protection.

“So many people don’t even want to use the phrase ‘climate change’ in our state because we are a major oil producer,” Landrieu said.

He spoke about rising sea levels, coastal erosions and storms. He said it’s important for

CRTWD celebrates 40 years

By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com Every household or business with plumbing creates some sort of waste, but most people don’t pay attention to anniversary what happens after it’s flushed away. Like any wastewater-management utility company, the Clay Township Regional Waste District is paying very close attention, and this year marks its 40-year anniversary of service. To celebrate, the CTRWD held an open house June 29.

Officially established in 1975, the CTRWD, 10701 N. College Ave. in Indianapolis, is in charge of maintaining its customers’ sewer systems, which involves the treatment and recycling of local wastewater. Since its inception, the organization has seen massive growth in its customer base and operations.

“We’ve grown to over 14,000 customers, which would be the west half of Carmel and part of Zionsville,” CTRWD Utilities Director Andrew Williams said. “We’ve put a lot of money into projects. I think in the last 10 years we’ve put at least $34 million into capital projects to keep upgrading both for new growth and for our existing customers.”

Even with its continued updates and growth, the plant still manages to maintain

the second lowest utility rates in Hamilton County.

Aside from physical updates over the years, the CTRWD has focused a lot on its public outreach.

“One of the things we’ve worked on is really educating the public,” Williams said. “We have a pretty extensive outreach.”

In addition, the CTRWD interacts with local Boy Scout troops, schools and even has a wild life sanctuary on its plant Zionsville.

“We have about 20 acres out there,” Williams said.

Powell honored for service

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com When Mayor Jim Brainard was giving a speech July 3 before awarding the Range Line Pioneer to a recipient, CarmelFaward est Parade Director Peggy Powell said she had no idea he was talking about her.

“I had no idea whatsoever,” Powell said.

“When the mayor started making his speech, I was listening and was wondering who it was going to be. I thought it could be several people, but I had no idea it was going to be me, and I was very surprised and honored.”

Powell retired as parade director after this year’s CarmelFest.

“The award was given to me because I’ve had eight years of service to the community for directing the CarmelFest Parade,” she said.

“I’ll still be in involved in CarmelFest in some way. It’ll take me a while to get everything wrapped up, and I’ll keep busy with the Carmel Rotary. That’s for sure.”

Powell said over the years, the parade has expanded most in the amount of spectators that attend. She said her favorite float was the Ballet Folkloric Mosaicos, a Mexican folk ballet.

“It’s full of energy and beautiful costumes

and exciting-looking masks,” she said of the ballet. “This year, they choreographed a special routine just for the parade.

“I would say (the parade has) mostly grown by the audience we have had. It’s gotten larger and larger every year, and we work real hard to get exciting entries into the parade,” she added. “We try to be careful so it doesn’t become commercialized. We just want everybody to have a good time. We have a huge grand finale for the military at the end of the parade, and that’s always very popular.”

The new CarmelFest parade director has not yet been announced.

5K to benefit Haiti

of your donation will benefit your local CMN Hospital.

By Lauren Boughner news@currentincarmel.com Nine years ago, 110 people gathered around St. Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church to run a 5K to benefit the church’s giving back Haiti Mission. The event has now grown to more than 400 people from Carmel and the surrounding communities participating each year, whether it’s because they love running or they want to do something to help people in need.

“Why not merge running with the Haiti ministry?” said Jeffrey Hess, who had the original idea for the event.

This year, the run will be at 8 a.m. July 30 and will be followed by a Kids Fun Run at 9:15 a.m. Everyone is welcome, Hess said, from serious runners to community members who want to have fun with a team.

The course is USA Track & Field certified, and times will be recorded by End:Result. An Indy Eleven mascot will cheer on participants, who will receive free beer at the finish line.

But this run distinguishes itself by being more than just fun, Hess said.

“You can go to any 5K out there, but the im-

pact we can have goes so much further than what people can imagine,” Hess said.

St. Elizabeth Seton partners with St. Geneveive Parish in Duval, Haiti, giving proceeds to the pastor to help the community.

“Kids are now back in the schoolhouse,” Haiti Mission Secretary Amber Scannell said about the improvements that have been made since the 2010 earthquake. Between $4,000 and $5,000 is given to aid this community each year because of this event.

The race costs $25 through July 22. To learn more, visit carmel5kforhaiti.com.

CarmelFest Crowd – Celebrates in Rain & Shine

By Cindy Roberts-Greiner Thank you to all the festival attendees for your enthusiasm and patronage – especially those who braved the rain and came to the festival on July 3rd. Even though rain showers continued into the evening, the entertainment line-up delighted festival audiences in the KidZone, on the Geico Gazebo Stage and the Market District North Zone Stage. On the evening of July 3rd, The Wright Brothers gave one of their best performances ever to an enthusiastic crowd of people decked out in rain gear, guarded by umbrellas, staged under pop-up tents or just dancing in the rain. The Market District North Zone stage day of “Guitars & Stars” brought incredibly talented musicians together to a slightly-wet, but very dedicated group of rock enthusiasts.

On July 4th – despite the clouds and light sprinkles – all festivities went off as planned and everyone had a fantastic celebration watching the impressive Centier Bank CarmelFest

July 4th Parade, enjoying the outdoor festival at Civic Square, attending the BANG! VIP Party, and being dazzled by the Spectacular Fireworks.

Keeping with our 28 year CarmelFest tradition, rain and clouds did not stop us from celebrating Independence Day as a community with family and friends.

Summer rains raise flooding concerns Allie Missler and her family have lived in their home in Concord Village since 1998, and there’s always been flooding when it rains, but it seems things have weather gotten worse the past few years.

“It really started getting bad around 2010 and has become exponentially worse,” she said. “We have repeatedly asked both our former council members and the city directly for help. In addition to our back yard, our cul-desac floods, as water needs to fight gravity to drain uphill to a storm sewer.”

Heavy rains last month have caused some areas of Carmel to flood quickly, even with less than an inch of rainfall. Carmel City Council members are telling residents fixes are in the works, and more than $40 million is being spent to solve storm-water problems citywide, but that the process takes time.

But every time there’s a heavy rain, some neighbors get impatient.

On March 5, 2004, Damien Sanders shot and killed Karl, robbing him of $2. Sanders was sentenced to 85 years in prison and Brandon Patterson, an accomplice, was sentenced to 50 years. The second accomplice, a juvenile at the time, spent time in a juvenile delinquent center before being released.

Tom, Livia and Karl’s brother Brian, host a memorial golf outing every year for Karl, in addition to raising money for scholarships to be given to Ball State University business students who have done a good deed. Karl, a Carmel High School graduate, had plans to attend the business school.

“The outing raises money for the (Karl T. Harford Good Samaritan Endowed Scholarship Fund,)” Tom said. “The real core of the scholarship is they write an essay on random acts of kindness they have participated in, like if they help push a car out of snow or picked up somebody’s lost ID. It’s a lot of different things.”

This year will be the 13th annual outing, which began at Karl’s funeral when the Harford family asked for monetary donations for scholarships in lieu of flowers.

“We also have the scholarship recipients invited to the dinner (at the outing) and recognized, and they can actually see what the golf outing is doing,” Tom said. “We are trying to promote everyone to help others and doing random acts of kindness each day in their lives.”

Tom spends time with each team on the day of the outing, and Brian often golfs with his own team. Brian, now 31, was a freshman

at Ball State and attended the same party Karl did on the night of his murder.

When he and his friends couldn’t find Karl the next day, they called the police and filed a missing person report. Karl’s car was discovered in an alley with his body in the backseat.

KIND HEART Karl’s family said his desire to help others included lots of simple acts of kindness.

“He would give people rides home,” Livia said. “He used to be an Arby’s manager and when they would close for the night he would give kids a ride home so they wouldn’t have to wait for their parents.”

The Karl T. Harford Memorial Golf Outing registration will begin at 11:30 a.m. and the shotgun start will occur at 1 p.m. July 15 at Wood Wind Golf Club, 2302 W. 161st St. Each year, the Harfords give out three or four scholarships valued at approximately $5,000 each through the Central Indiana Community Foundation. The golf outing is the first time the Harford family meets the scholarship recipients.

The $125 entry fee per person for teams of four includes green fees and cart, range balls, lunch and dinner, awards, a raffle, beverages on the course and more.

Blackmore family continues to ‘be brave’ after tragedy

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Tracey Blackmore is trying to “be brave” for her six-year-old son.

Brooks Blackmore died May 21 after fighting brain cancer. The story of FUNDRAISER this Carmel boy touched thousands of people, leading to more than 8,000 followers on the Be Brave Brooks page on Facebook that provided updates on his condition.

“One month later, we are still trying to pick up the pieces after losing our brave boy, Brooks,” Tracey said. “In many ways it just doesn't seem real. We had such great hope.

When something like this happens, especially to a 6-year-old boy, we try to figure out why and wonder how something like this could happen. We are still making our way through these questions and although we will never know the true answers in this lifetime ... we still seek them to help find comfort.”

Tracey said she has found comfort in “signs” she sees all around.

“He leaves me heart-shaped clouds or helps God paint the night sky in ways that resemble his first painting he did when sick,” she said.

“He is ‘talking’ through our almost 3-yearold twins as they tell me, ‘Brooksy is happy, Mama.’ We talk about our boy all the time and even talk to him. We ask him to come with us to the park, store, outside to play, etc. We talk about how brave he was and what an impact he had on the world that knew him.”

The community has stepped up to make sure Brooks isn’t forgotten. At least $12,000 was raised in donations for Prayers From Maria, a pediatric, high-grade tumor research foundation.

An NFL fundraiser is scheduled July 15 at Carmel High School to benefit the Blackmore family, among other charitable causes. The event is a Mascots versus Pee Wees game that includes NFL mascots, including Blue of the Indianapolis Colts, competing in games against peewee teams from Carmel, Westfield,

Wilderness trek a life-changing experience for Carmel veteran

By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Eric Donoho’s first experience in a desert didn’t go so well.

A U.S. Army infantryman, Donoho spent five years serving in Iraq, where he was hit by two cover story IEDs and an explosively formed penetrator, leaving him with a traumatic brain injury, migraines and depression. This all after he had to temporarily leave the warzone soon after he arrived to bury his stillborn son.

So when he heard that a planned trip to scale mountains in Wyoming with several other disabled veterans was switched to a desert hike through the Gila Wilderness of New Mexico, he had second thoughts. But it turned out to be just what he needed.

“A spur-of-the-moment change in this trip ended up being really influential and spiritual for the majority of us,” Donoho said. “It showed us where we were and where we should be.”

Donoho, a Carmel resident, completed the trip June 11 to 17 through No Barriers Warriors, an organization that supports veterans with disabilities. It’s part of No Barriers USA, a nonprofit founded by the only blind person to scale Mt. Everest.

Donoho’s group crossed rivers, hiked through dry backcountry and dipped in hot springs. The sudden transition

from scorched desert to lush greenery along the way helped Donoho see parallels in his own struggles.

“I’m living my life, but I’m not really here.

I haven’t made it back yet in a sense. I go through the motions, but I want to thoroughly enjoy my life the way I used to,” Donoho said. “From the point you go up and hit our summit, the high point of the mountain, I looked out, and it was just gorgeous, beautiful looking down all over the meadow that was full of life and thriving. It was so symbolic.”

“His willingness to share his struggles with the rest of the team was a big part of other people being willing to share their experiences and their challenges and success and failures,” Toth said. “He talked a lot about the things he’s dealt with and how he’s done. When everyone on the trip does that, the other participants learn from each other and they gain inspiration from each other.”

Dance reflection

FR O M T HE backshop

Smelling a rat, seeing a snake?

And now it gets hyper-interesting. We assume you know that the FBI decided last week that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) was “extremely careless” in the way she handled classified emails on a private server (Oopsie!), but, hey, there isn’t enough for a recommendation to the Department of Justice for criminal charges to be brought against the former secretary of state. “As the Secretary has long said, it was a mistake to use her personal email and she would not do it again. We are glad that this matter is now resolved,” said FBI Director James Comey. Is it? Not if you ask the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, the name-calling flamethrower.

He immediately opined on social media that the “system is rigged” and was calling for a special prosecutor. One wag on Twitter noted that as the announcement was being made, Clinton and President Barack Obama were together on the campaign trail, and that if anyone believed that was a coincidence, one would be a fool. Perhaps. We’re trying to make sense of the decision. Brought down to our level, which is way, way down the ladder, does that mean if we’re pulled over for doing 45 mph in a 30 mph zone, we simply tell the constable, “I apologize, officer, but I didn’t intend to speed.” The announcement came the day after we celebrated independence from tyrannical elites. We’re not sure that fully is the case. Of course, as we’ve written before, if anyone thought Clinton would get more than a hand slap, we have some south-central Florida real estate for you. If interested, you really should have an affinity for Burmese pythons.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Something for anything Commentary by Terry Anker We all want to help. It is human nature; or at the very least, we still can claim it among the qualities in the better part of our selves.

When someone else is suffering, it gives us an opportunity to reach out in support of their need. They get a little boost, and we get to feel good about ourselves. Who loses in that equation, right? Moreover, life teaches that we are on the upward slant of life one minute and on the downward the next. So, our aid somehow guarantees that someone will help us when our fortunes are down.

Let’s call it an investment in the Karma bank.

Whatever the motivation, self-interest or altruism that leads us down the path, we all find ourselves, at one point or another, in a giving state of mind. We give money. We give time. We give advice. We give lots of advice. We give support. We give a hand up.

We give. We give. We give. The only thing, perhaps better said – the only question that

we might consider, is are we giving what’s needed? Are we giving what’s wanted?

Some people think that doing anything is the same as doing something. Don’t misunderstand the instinct. It is good to share – especially if by choice and not government decree. But when we confuse the general for the specific, are we really serving? If water is needed and we send coins, is thirst quenched? If tough love is the order of the day, do our sweet words fit the bill?

Are we simply doing anything instead of doing something – the thing? If we focus on our own actions instead of the needs of others, are we really serving our desire to be valued rather than the legitimate requirement of the target of our largess?

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK So long as you can sweeten another’s pain, life is not in vain.

– Helen Keller

The 2016 dance season is over, culminating in a six-day trip to Myrtle Beach for nationals. So much to say, only humor 350 words to convey. Now only 325. Here we go.

Girls just want to have fun. On the drive home, my daughter lamented that she had just spent a week at the ocean but only swam in it twice. When I reminded her that she was there to dance, not frolic on the beach, she announced: “That’s just stupid. Why not just have it in Indianapolis?”

Fair enough. And much closer.

When left to their own devices, girls do have a lot of fun. Starting dance parties on the strip with sketchy passengers in idling cars; writing and producing a highly questionable but immensely entertaining rap song; sneaking un-choreographed moves into long-rehearsed routines … these kooky kids have imaginations after all!

All dance moms are not created equal. I realized about halfway through the trip that I was not part of the popular crowd. Try as I might to hang with “the fun moms,” I cherish alone time. I love going to bed at 9 p.m. And by God, if I’m near a beach, even one with a conspicuous absence of sand dollars, I’ll be on it. I know I missed out on several juicy conversations, social power walks and delightful bottles of white, but this ginger dance mom earned a C+ tan and a renewed acceptance of self.

Not all dance teams are created equal either. Our girls danced well, but had their booty shorts handed to them by larger, more competitive teams. It was somewhat of a rude awakening for me but also confirmed what I already knew. We’re with a studio who puts fun and friendship first, not perfection. And I’m good with that.

I have a terrible short-term memory.

I witnessed a two-car traffic accident one morning and was the sole pedestrian witness. When the cop interviewed me, I couldn’t recall any details. None. “So, you didn’t really see anything, ma’am?” Nope. I guess not.

But I do know a good rap song. Peace out.

REA D ERS ’ V I EWS Two thumbs down for ‘Catholic fail’ Editor, I was drawn to the headline “Catholic fail” in the recent edition of the Current and, after reading the article, find myself befuddled on a number of fronts.

The inflammatory headline is inconsistent with the article content. What exactly is the referenced Catholic failure?

The article is labeled as “humor.” What element of humor is there in a young man’s decision regarding whether or not to proceed with the confirmation for which he was preparing?

Where is the community interest here that one would expect to find in articles in this newspaper? Does interest extend beyond Ms. Wilson’s family and circle of friends?

I wish the Wilsons the best as they navigate through life’s many decisions and challenges and at the same time suggest that everyone would be better served if Ms. Wilson addresses these in a different forum than in a community newspaper.

Mayor Brainard’s support for local control of fracking Editor, Following the Conference of Mayors in Indianapolis last weekend, Mayor Brainard of Carmel joined more than 30 mayors from a dozen states to speak out in support of local control of fracking. The mayors said: “it’s vital our cities and localities are able to protect the public health and environment

from fracking’s impacts.”

Fracking has been shown to damage communities in a variety of ways, from contaminating drinking water to polluting the air to devastating lands.

Asleep at the wheel Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I have tried many things over the years to get a better night’s sleep. I once took Ambien, but when I woke up in the mornhumor ing, I discovered I had mown the entire front lawn in the dark. I tried allergy medicine, but it made me a little goofy. Growling at myself in the mirror isn’t normal.

Why do I sleep well on a bus? Nothing about a bus lends itself to sleeping. The seats are hard, the space is cramped, and it’s usually hot.

I decided to simulate the conditions on a bus that make me nod off. I asked my wife to talk to me like a tour guide, to drone on about how the Greeks built the Acropolis or how the Romans constructed the Appian Way. Mary Ellen felt dumb talking to me from the foot of the bed. I asked her to rock the bed back and forth so I’d feel like I was really on the bus. That’s when she got off the bus and slept on the couch.

I took a hard-back, metal folding chair and sat on it next to my bedroom window while

bouncing up and down like I was on a bus.

But I was still wide awake after 30 minutes.

Maybe it’s the sun that makes me drowsy, so I shone a floor lamp directly in my eyes. No luck. What else could I do? Mary Ellen wouldn’t let me invite 30 strangers over to sit around the bed.

Wait! The bus trips are during the day, and I’m trying to sleep at night. So I got back into my folding chair at high noon. The sun was pouring in on my face.

Suddenly I felt myself getting sleepy, very sleepy. Zzzz…

It worked. I slept from noon until 8 p.m., sitting straight up in the chair, leaning against my bedroom window. My insomnia was cured.

Two hours later, it was time for bed. I got under the covers and just couldn’t fall asleep.

Go figure.

I tried allergy medicine, but it made me a little goofy. Growling at myself in the mirror isn’t normal.

The St.Vincent House, which will serve as a home-away-from home for family members of patients.

(Submitted rendering)

TFK to host 7th golf scramble Commentary by Cameron Mahoney, Chairman of Touchdown for Kids Touchdown for Kids, an organization created to support the philanthropic efforts and community awareness fundraiser of the St.Vincent Foundation and Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital, will host an annual golf scramble. This year’s golf event will be at 11 a.m. July 13 at Prairie View Golf, 7000 Longest Dr., Carmel. All funds raised during the event will benefit Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at the St.Vincent House.

Since its inauguration eight years ago, TFK has raised more than $160,000 for the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital. Past golf outings have assisted with vital causes such as MRI

goggles, which entertain the kids while undergoing MRIs, important new technology to aid in the early detection of hearing loss in children, pediatric palliative care, and neonatal critical care transport incubators, among others.

The St.Vincent House will be a new facility on the St.Vincent Indianapolis campus and will serve as a home-away-from home for family members of patients, who travel from out of town to be with their loved one. It will include 20 overnight guest rooms, kitchen and dining space, laundry facilities, chapel, playground and more. The St.Vincent House is scheduled to open in early 2017.

Garden now open at IU Health

A donated garden, in design at IU Health North Hospital for several years, opened this spring to benefit patients wellbeing and their families.

The Serenity Garden is a rooftop garden on the fourth floor of IU Health North Hospital, installed with benches, decorative evergreens and succulents. The garden is near the pediatric, intensive care and postpartum units.

G. Marlyne Sexton provided the hospital with a donation for the garden in memory of two men, her husband, Joseph, and Zeff Weiss, a man who worked with her who also was the brother of Dr. Sheldon Weiss, a physician at the hospital.

“She gave the gift in honor and celebration of their lives,” Tracy Miller, director of philanthropy, said. “We have had people comment that it’s just so comforting to be able to get fresh air without having to leave the hospital.”

The garden is wheelchair accessible, and patients have to get approval from their doctor before visiting the garden.

The $250,000 project began construction in December and opened in May. “This is a dream the hospital has had. The

hospital was designed for there to someday be this Serenity Garden, and it wasn’t until Mrs. Sexton said, ‘I would like to do this for you,’ that we were able to do it,” Miller said.

“It’s a beautiful gift, and it’s something our employees always wanted for their patients.”

The Engledow Group of Carmel donated its time to be the garden consultants and maintain the garden.

“We would love to find someone in the community that would like to help weed the garden and help with watering like a volunteer or several volunteers,” Miller said. “Volunteers really make nice, special things happen in hospitals.”

Businesses or individuals interested in volunteering should contact Volunteer Coordinator Ann Sawyer at asawyer@iuhealth.org.

What causes poison ivy? Itchy red skin, sometimes accompanied by blisters, is a result of coming in contact with the urushiol oil from the poison ivy plant. This contact can be direct, from touching the plant itself, or indirect, such as urushiol residue that may be transferred from your furry friend. While uncomfortable, the rash itself is not contagious.

Those suffering from poison ivy don’t have to worry about spreading it to others or to any other parts of their skin.

So I’m itching. A lot. What do I do? Head to the Health and Wellness section of the

Carmel Market District. Fortunately, there are many over-the-counter options for treatment.

• Calamine lotion and steroid creams, like hydrocortisone, are topical medications that help reduce itching and redness.

• For additional relief, apply a damp, cool cloth to the affected area for 30 minutes at a time throughout the day.

• Resist the urge to scratch. The added irritation and bacteria under fingernails may cause an infection.

Ideally, the best way to treat poison ivy is to familiarize yourself with the look of the plant and, if possible, avoid areas where it’s present.

• Garments, such as long-sleeved shirts and full-length pants, can prevent urushiol oil from touching your skin.

• If poison-ivy-gear is too hot, Ivy Block and Vaseline can be applied every four hours to act as a protective barrier on the skin.

Indy Film Fest: Amy’s top five Commentary by Amy Pauszek The 2016 Indy Film Fest kicks off this week on July 14 and runs through July 24. It’s one of my favorite film festivals because many of the films shown will be havmovies ing their world premiere here in Indiana. Two amazing films are slated for opening and closing nights, “Little Men” and “Morris From America.” Trust me, you won’t want to miss these exciting films, the after parties or the chance to meet indie filmmakers, producers and actors from around the world. As a local film producer, I love seeing what’s hot, fresh and who is making waves in the indie film industry. The Indianapolis Museum of Art is hosting the festival again this year. Two films I selected for my top five were actually filmed in Indiana and the rest are films that will leave the audience with questions and/or asking for more. Indy Film Fest Executive Director Craig Mince of Carmel said he believes “the core group who help run the festival are a team of people who believe in the unifying power of film - and they dedicate an unbelievable number of hours to prove that commitment.”

Experience the Indy Film Fest and help make filmmakers’ from around the world dreams come true. For more, visit indyfilmfest.org.

“Under the Bridge,” a documentary about homelessness in Indianapolis will be playing at the Indy Film Fest. (Submitted photo)

1. “Under the Bridge: The Criminalization of Homelessness” A documentary shot in downtown Indianapolis is about a tent city under a bridge, a man named Maurice and the criminalization of homelessness in the United States. The unofficial “mayor” of the Davidson Street camp, Maurice is an older, dreadlocked black man who has dropped out of normal society to minister to the homeless. His camp based under a railroad track becomes a real community, supported by church volunteers, until police and bulldozers close in to shut it down.

This film makes the audience think about how we deal with the homeless and how this can happen to any of us when we least expect it.

2. “A Sicilian Dream” This is a documentary about the famous Targa Florio, a Sicilian mountain road race that, in 1906, gave birth to a new

era of motorsport that is still going strong today. Indianapolis 500 race fans will love this film, which has dramatic re-enactments with a touch of modern contributors who relate and explain the history of these epic races. The film is in English but has some Italian subtitles. It’s interesting, witty and has beautiful Italian cinematography – an IFF must see.

3. “70 Acres in Chicago, Cabrini Green” Filmed over the course of 15 years, the documentary film asks the question, “What happens when a mixed-income housing experiment collides with reality?” The film centers on three public-housing residents and how their lives are turned upside down when their community is torn apart in the name of progress. Cabrini is being demolished as part of a national plan to replace public housing with mixed-income communities. Critics contend that the motivation is economic gain, as public housing’s prime real estate is too valuable for the lowincome black communities that live there. The film chronicles neighborhood upheaval on Chicago’s most hotly contested 70 acres of land. This film makes the audience open their eyes to situations that happen every day to low-income communities and their families.

4. “Reparation” A powerful psychological thriller shot in Indiana about a troubled Air Force veteran who finds clues to his buried memories in his young daughter’s art, while confronted by a stranger looking for answers to his past. The story, acting, music, make-up and cinematography make this film come alive. This is a feature film that leaves the audience wondering about loyalty, friendships and the call of duty. This film is award-winning and a must-see.

5. “Search Engines” Sanity and relationships are put to the test when mysterious circumstances force a family to survive the annual American Thanksgiving holiday without their cell phones. This is a fun, indie film with a great cast including Joely Fisher, Natasha Greyson Wagner, Daphne Zuniga and the hysterical “Search Engines,” on screen at the Indy Connie Stevens. I Film Fest, is the perfect film to see for a girls night out. (Submitted photo) thought this film was funny, and it reminds us that we may just depend on social media and our electronic devices a bit more than we really need to. Perfect for a girls’ night out at the IFF. Where’s Amy? is a photo column by Amy Pauszek, a society girl and film producer and partner with Ever Film Productions, LLC.

By Zach Dunkin • editorial@youarecurrent.com As far back as the 1940s, Walt Disney began a practice of putting its classic animated films like “Snow White” and “Bambi” theater in the vault.

Likewise, Beef & Boards Dinner Theater will lock up one of its favorites, “Church Basement Ladies,” following its July 14-Aug. 21 run.

“We’re bringing back the original production,” said Patricia Rettig, director of marketing and media relations. “There are several in the series, and we’ve presented four of them, so it can get confusing. This is the show where it all started, which we first presented six years ago. And it will be the last time we present it for a while. It’s going back into our vault, to borrow Disney’s term.”

“Church Basement Ladies” is based on the best-selling book, “Growing Up Lutheran” by Janet Letnes Martin and Suzann Nelson. The musical comedy is about the women who work in the church basement cooking meals for church functions. Four women do their best to organize food, stave off potential disasters, share and debate recipes, keep the pastor on due course and try to solve the problems of their changing rural Minnesota

Family push helps Voegele win

“When I went up to sing my last song, I could feel my heart beating,” music Voegele said.

Nonetheless, Voegele, 19, was able to capture the 18-and-over division in the CarmelFest Has Talent singing finals July 4 on the Gazebo Stage. Voegele was joined by two Westfield winners, Reilly Spiller, of the 13-17 division and Keegan Connor, of the 12-and-under division. The five-semifinalists lineup was trimmed to three after July 3 performances.

Voegele, whose father lives in Noblesville, graduated from Lapel High School and will be a Purdue sophomore next month.

“My dad and my sister pushed me into the competition, and it had a pretty good outcome,” Voegele said.

This was the first talent competition for Voegele, who sang in Lapel’s show choir.

“After doing this one and having this success, I might consider doing other competitions,” Voegele said. “I might see if I can sing at Purdue.”

If you’re looking for a new way to entertain the kids on a Monday morning, Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation hosts the music Summer Kids Concerts series, which runs until Aug. 1. The hourlong concerts, either at West Park or River Heritage Park, start at 10 a.m. every Monday.

Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation pairs with Anderson & Beck, a booking company, to schedule the talent. There is a different act each week, which can range from a solo performer to a group of four. This summer includes Ruditoonz, Island Breeze Duo, Tides Duo, Kid Kazooey and Jump & Hop. Along with their songs, performers bring a variety of instruments and even a few dance moves.

Joe’s Next Door set to open

Priced To Sell!

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Joe Lazzara figures his butcher shop has had a strong run, and now it’s growth time for the next step.

“They say a business is successful if it survives three years or five years,” said Lazzara, co-owner with his wife Kathy of Joe’s Butcher Shop and Fish Market, 111 Main St. Carmel. “Now we’ve been here 10, and we’ve really become a gathering place for the community. Folks in Carmel, Westfield and northern Indianapolis meet on Saturday mornings and talk in the butcher shop. It’s become a community staple. We’re proud of what our employees have done to bring us to this point.”

Now the time is right to expand. He will open Joe’s Next Door, a 900-square foot space connected to the butcher shop, later this month or in early August.

“We started making lasagna, chicken pot pies and beef stew,” Lazzara said. “Everyone loved them so much. We thought maybe we should expand and open up a gourmet sandwich shop that also does prepared meals.”

Lazzara said they will provide catering for offices for lunches.

With more people living and working near downtown, Lazzara said he expects customers will be seeking to-go meals and sandwiches.

“We’ll have nice array of prepared meals and rotate three or four a week,” he said.

“We’ll have sides, desserts and salads. Our customers can take home a meal and heat it

up. We’re going to put a kit together where you grab it, take it home and make your own meal at home from scratch.”

Lazzara has a full-time, three-chef team, led by head chef Jon Radford, who was previously a chef at a small Geist restaurant. The other chefs include a sous chef and one with bakery experience.

“They’ve all got wonderfully different skills,” Lazzara said. “Everything we’re doing from the bread we’re putting on sandwiches on to (the) 19 different condiments we’ll have on gourmet sandwiches, are all made in-house.

We’re roasting our own turkey, our own roast beef and ham.”

There will be six hot sandwiches, six to eight cold sandwiches and vegetarian options.

Lazzara plans to increase the amount of produce in the store. Silverthorn Farms will provide the produce.

Crust moves, changes owners

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Dustin Brown and Anzi Lotfi always loved Crust Pizzeria Napoletarestaurants na, the local pizza restaurant on Old Meridian Street. The married couple loved it so much, they decided to purchase the business when it went up for sale.

“We were customers at the old location. We would go there time-to-time. Everyone really liked it,” Brown said. “We had always talked about having a business. The owners of Mimi Blue Meatballs bought (the location). So we worked out a deal to buy Crust and find a location for it.”

The couple took over the former Michelle’s restaurant spot at 840 W. Main St. and moved the pizza oven as well as all the recipes over to the new Crust. The soft opening was last month with the front patio space opening shortly after.

Mohey Osman, the creator of Crust, launched a separate restaurant and didn’t have the time to continue to operate the pizzeria. The couple said Crust is not a franchise, but a local and independent restaurant.

The grand opening is scheduled from 5:30 to 9 p.m. July 13, and at that time, the back beer garden seating will open. For the grand

“How often do you have the opportunity to invest in your kids’ favorite pizza place?” Lotfi said.

Crust is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and noon to 9 p.m. Sunday. For more, visit crustindy.com.

Since he retired a few years ago, Steve Williams had been looking for something to keep him a bit busier.

New biz “It’s difficult to find something you can do on your own schedule,” he said.

Finally, it hit the long-time Carmel resident that he should sell vinyl records.

“I’ve been into music forever, especially country rock,” said Williams, who had his own, small vinyl album collection. “I bought six different collections, three of which were very large.”

Williams, 73, opened Steve’s Stuff, a booth in the Antique Emporium of Carmel, 620 S. Range Line Rd., in May. He also has purchased albums from booth visitors, who have brought in collections.

“The millennials are driving the resurgence of vinyl, and it’s very interesting to me,” said Williams, who sold pre-engineered steel buildings before retiring. “There are people that are strictly collectors. They are looking for unique, first press (albums). I got some of that, but most of my stuff is what I would call playable.”

In 2015, vinyl sales grew 32 percent to $416 million, the highest since 1988, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.

Much of Williams’ collection is made up of Classic Rock, such as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd.

“The most difficult thing is grading a record to price it,” said Williams, who is discounting his merchandise 20 percent in July. “There are probably four or five sources that I (use to determine prices).”

Williams said he tries hard to get very clean albums.

He estimates he has more than 1,200 to 1,500 albums at the store and approximately another 600 in storage.

As a booth operator, Williams doesn’t have to keep regular hours at the Antique Emporium.

Homes sales up in central Indiana Commentary by Jim Litten Approximately 1,000 more homes have sold in central Indiana during the first five months of 2016 than the same real estate time period last year, according to data from the 13-county region F.C. Tucker tracks. In a monthly comparison, approximately 3,059 homes pended in May 2016, which was a 3 percent increase over May 2015. Homes priced above $300,000 contributed to the majority of last month’s growth in pended sales.

In Hamilton County, pended sales are up 2.6 percent year to date and up 7.6 percent month to date. Approximately 45 more homes pended throughout the county than May 2015. The average sales price rose 1.4 percent compared to last year, now at $276,505. Meanwhile, inventory tightened 9.3 percent year to date.

• In Carmel, the average year-to-date home sales price increased 0.6 percent to $351,238.

• Inventory moved at a slightly faster pace in Carmel in May 2016. Overall, homes sold in 65 days – one less day than this time last year.

• Buyers in Carmel had fewer options available to them. Last month, 552 homes were available for sale – 29 fewer homes compared to May 2015.

• Pended home sales have grown in Carmel.

In May 2016, 179 homes sold – an increase of 19 homes compared to May 2015.

• Of the pended home sales in Carmel last month, three were priced $1,000,000 to $1,999,999; 26 were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 75 were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 49 were priced $200,000 to $299,999; 22 were priced $100,000 to $199,999; and four were priced below $99,999.

May was a busy month for our sales associates, but the demand exists for more homes to be on the market. Central Indiana has approximately 2.3 months of inventory. Typically, if inventory falls below four months, we know it’s a seller’s market.

Houzz 2016 report shows hottest home trends Commentary by David Decker Kitchens aren’t just for cooking anymore.

Houzz, a digital leader in home design and inspiration, recently released interiors a report detailing consumer trends in kitchen design.

Included was how consumers are using their kitchens and the functionality that may have changed over the years. A majority of people report spending three to four hours per day in the kitchen, with activities ranging from eating to entertaining to doing homework.

With the kitchen commanding such a large number of activities, the design and functionality is extremely important. A large reason homeowners renovate is to improve the flow and open it up to either another interior space, such as a living room, or to an outdoor patio or porch. Homeowners continue to blend living and functional areas of their homes, allowing them to enjoy all areas more easily.

Once they have opened up their kitchens, a majority of homeowners are changing the style during the renovation. Countertops are one area where design and style start to take shape. When considering kitchen countertops, consumers reported durability as most important and still prefer the beauty that natural

Live and love life outdoors Commentary by Randy Sorrell Finally, the technology-induced drought for outdoor living has been reversed!

Our children initiated this fundesign sucking drought fueled by all things FANG (Facebook/Amazon/ Netflix/Google). They preferred to be nailed in front of a screen chatting with “friends”, binge-watching the latest series and Googling the world instead of climbing a tree or playing kickball in the church lot. Sadly, we followed them indoors and the drought commenced.

Hummus. Dates. Wine.

Now that we have improved our habits and pushed the kids outside, sales of hummus, gulping wine, books and outdoor entertaining ware are off the charts, smiles have returned and our pasty skin shows sign of life. A recent report notes that the average size home built over the last two years has decreased by 10 percent to allow enough space for outdoor patio living.

How does one become a Grammar Guy? In my case, I graduated with honors (Latin honors!) with a dualgrammar guy degree in journalism and English, I was the managing editor of a newspaper, and I knew what an interrobang was. Also, when the job opened up, I asked.

How does one establish ethos with their audience? See above.

Whatever I go on to say now – as long as it’s about grammar – I’ve foregrounded a sense of expertise and authority on my part.

That is what Aristotle dubbed ethos – one of the three modes of persuasion.

If you read last week’s column, you know we’re talking about rhetoric and the art of persuasion on the campaign trail. And in our (still presumptive, as of this writing) Democratic and Republican candidates, we see two very different methods of establishing ethos.

Hillary Clinton tends to lead first with her credentials and experience – what Aristotle called phronesis. Consider this passage from his “Nicomachean Ethics:” “…Prudence (phronesis) includes a knowledge of particular facts, and this is derived from experience, which a young man does not possess; for experience is the fruit of years.”

In her opponent, Donald Trump, we see more of an emphasis on Aristotle’s two other aspects of ethos: arete (excellence/virtue) and eunoia (goodwill).

Trump is, by nearly all accounts, a supremely gifted self-promoter, which is key to

establishing ethos. Consider this quote from a speech in December: “I went to an Ivy League school,” Trump said, a point he frequently brings up to establish his excellence. “I’m very highly educated. I know words. I have the best words.”

Trump also repeatedly points to his successful business ventures, his great personal fortune and his trouncing of his Republican rivals as proof of his virtue (arete). Ethos.

Ethos. Ethos.

In another skillful rhetorical move, the New York real estate mogul in June both tried to damage Clinton’s perceived goodwill with voters (eunoia) while building his own. Referencing Clinton’s campaign slogan, “I’m with her,” Trump told a crowd on June 22, “You know what my response to that is? I’m with you, the American people.”

It’s worth noting that establishing ethos doesn’t happen just because you say you’re great – there has to be some grounding in reality. Trump can promote his image as a dealmaker because of his successes in business.

Clinton can frame herself as the foreign policy expert because of her vast experience as a first lady, senator and secretary of state. Me claiming either of those things? Not as persuasive. That’s why I stick to snarky grammar columns.

Coming up next week: “Moving mountains, and minds, with pathos.”

When you love corn on the cob, but not the mess

Commentary by Beverly Randolph

The eastern end of the Parthenon in Athens, Greece (Photo by Don Knebel)

Illusions of the Parthenon Commentary by Don Knebel The Parthenon, atop the Athens Acropolis, represents the epitome of classical architecture and the inspiration for buildtravel ings around the world, including the United States Supreme Court Building. Its timeless appearance results from a number of clever optical refinements reflecting the perceptiveness of ancient Greek architects.

Pericles, the great Athenian leader, erected the Parthenon from 447 to 432 B.C. to celebrate the accomplishments of the citizens of Athens, then at the peak of its power. The 228-footlong by 101-foot-wide building sheltered a colossal gold and ivory statue of Athena, the patron goddess of Athens. Because Athenians did not enter the Parthenon, but observed it from outside, architects designed the exterior to communicate visual perfection by taking into account the limitations of human perception. As a result, the Parthenon has no straight lines.

To counter the perception that vertical parallel lines bow inwardly, the middles of the Parthenon’s marble columns are slightly wider

“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.”

-Janice H.

than their ends. Because columns set against the bright sky appear smaller than those against a darker background, the diameters of the corner columns are about six centimeters larger than those of other columns.

To overcome the perception that horizontal lines sag, the Parthenon’s lintels curve slightly upward. Because a triangular pediment makes columns below it appear to bend outward, the Parthenon’s columns are closer to each other at their tops than at their bases.

The Parthenon was severely damaged in 1687, when gunpowder stored in it by the Ottomans exploded during a battle with the Venetians. In 1931, a full-scale replica of the Parthenon, based on ancient descriptions and including a magnificent statue of Athena, was completed in Centennial Park in Nashville, Tenn.

Dear Beverly: We are so fortunate to be invited to several picnics and barbeques this summer. However, etiquette how do I eat and enjoy corn on the cob in the presence of others without making a mess?

Thank you, I love corn on the cob, but not the mess, help!

Dear “I love corn on the cob, but not the mess, help,” In Indiana, we do love our corn, especially on the cob! Below are tips to help you this summer season to eat it peacefully and deliciously.

• Corn on the cob should only be served at casual dining settings. Corn served at a formal setting should always be cut off the cob in the kitchen before serving.

• The cob is held by the ends with the fingers.

• Large cobs are easier to eat when cut in half.

• Put pats of butter on your plate and then use your knife to butter a few rows.

• Hold the corn firmly by the ends with two hands. Corn skewers may be used.

• Take just a bite or two at a time. Oldfashioned typewriter style is best.

• Set your cob of corn down after each row, if not earlier, to avoid getting butter all over your fingers and corn kernels all over your face.

• For children and those with dental concerns, cut the corn off the cob.

Enjoy!
