St. Paul and The Broken Bones will perform during the Art of Wine event on July 19. (Submitted photo)

Main Street closed for Art of Wine

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

The Carmel Arts & Design District will host the sixth annual Art of Wine event on July 19. Main Street will be closed for traffic that Saturday event as wine enthusiasts stroll through the festival atmosphere.

Attendees can purchase a special refillable wine glass for $15 and then sample offerings from 15 different wineries from across the state.

“The wine festival is always a fun way to meet people in the community as well as say hi to our regulars while enjoying a little wine and music ourselves,” said BethAnn Kendall, manager at Vine & Table, the only retailer invited to the event.

Vine & Table, which is locally owned, will feature sauvignon blanc and cabernet sauvignon from Chile.

Since most of the other wines available will be made in Indiana, these South American selections might be somewhat dryer than the rest.

Guests can visit the art galleries, purchase full bottles of wine they enjoy, receive a free drawing from a caricature artist and participate in a Wine and Canvas activity. Specially painted wine bottles by local artists will be on display.

Live music will be available, including a performance by St. Paul and The Broken Bones, a nationally

recognized act recently participating featured on Jimmy wineries Kimmel Live and The Late Late Show with Best Vineyard Craig Ferguson.

Cedar Creek Winery They are a sevenCrush & Brew piece soul band from Ertel Cellars Winery Alabama best known French Lick Winery Harmony Winery for their single “Call Holtkamp Winery Me.” Their debut album Huber Orchard & Winery Half the City reached Mallow Run Winery No. 3 on the iTunes Monkey Hollow Winery albums charts and Rettig Hill Winery was produced by one River City Winery of the members of The Trader’s Point Winery Alabama Shakes.

Vine & Table Winzerwald The event will be conducted from 5 to 10 p.m. and a photo ID is required for drinking wine.

Only the first 2,500 attendees will receive the commemorative wine glass for tasting.

Parking is available in the usual parking garages, but a shuttle will also be available from Carmel High School for anyone who wants to park there.

Case closed in daycare death

The future of Range Line Road roundabouts

The second of two daycare workers charged in the 2013 death of a 5-monthold child at an unlicensed Carmel daycare was sentenced to almost 2 1/2 years in prison and another 2 1/2 years on probation July 8. Kirsten Phillips, 23, was found guilty June 5 on felony counts of reckless homicide and involuntary manslaughter. A felony charge of neglect of a dependent had been previously dismissed. Phillips’s mother, Stacey Cox, 43, was sentenced to 425 days in prison in November in the same incident.

After sitting in committee for about two years, the city’s comprehensive plan was approved by the Carmel City Council at its July 7 meeting. But Mayor Jim Brainard threatened to veto the plan because of a last-second removal of some proposed roundabouts. During the meeting councilor Luci Snyder proposed to remove any plans for a roundabout at Carmel Drive and Range Line Road. She said it’s better to have an intersection where people can stop and see are businesses.

Brainard said it wouldn’t make sense to remove the Carmel Drive roundabout from the planning document when there’s another proposed roundabout at Executive Drive right before it. Snyder then made a motion to remove both roundabouts.

The council voted 4-2 to approve the amendment and 6-0 to approve the amended plan. Read more about what this means for Range Line Road at www.currentincarmel.com.

New kickboxing studio opening

By Chris Bavender • news@currentincarmel.com

When it comes to working out, finding something new and fun to do isn’t always easy. But Carmel residents will soon have another when Matt and Katie Meiser open now open 9Round Kickboxing July 19 in the shopping plaza on the northwest corner of 116th Street and Guilford Road.

“9Round is a kickboxing program that provides a unique workout experience that takes just 30 minutes to complete and changes daily,” Matt Meiser said. “9Round uses dumbbells, heavy bags, medicine balls and kettle balls with a mix of boxing and kickboxing into nine 3:30 cardiovascular pumping rounds. There are no class times, and you get a trainer with you to motivate you and guide you every step of the way.”

Never taken a kickboxing class before? Matt Meiser said that’s not a problem.

“This workout is for any age, any fitness level, and any experience level,” he said. “You don’t have to know anything about kickboxing to get where you want to be. All you need is the desire to have fun and be better. We will help get you there any and every way we can.”

9Round was founded in 2009 by professional kickboxer Shannon Hudson, who won the IKF Light Middleweight Champion of the World title in 2011. Carmel will be the third Indiana location – Fishers and Bloomington also have studios.

From left, Group-CEO of 9Round Heather Hudson, Xavier Biggs who is known as the best hand pad man in the business, Matt Meiser and founder of 9Round Shannon (the Cannon) Hudson. (Submitted photo)

Take a class and Matt Meiser said you just might find yourself among those who say they are “truly addicted to it.”

“It’s intense but you always want more the next day,” he said. “Kickboxing is a great workout because you use every muscle in your body to complete punches and kicks. When we mix in active rest exercises and 30-second burn-outs with weights, we really create a calorie burning monster.”

The cost for 9Round is $50 to get started – which includes your boxing gloves, wraps, unlimited access and a trainer. After that, it’s $49 a month.

Pad Thai spices up dining scene

By Pete Smith • pete@youarecurrent.com

Walkers and runners cruising by along the Monon Trail in downtown Carmel have been keeping their eye on the restaurant planned for the location behind Scotty’s now open Brewhouse in Carmel’s Sophia Square building.

And now that Pad Thai restaurant has opened its doors, curious diners can stop in and try a refreshing glass of Thai tea and some of the most unique food in the Arts & Design District.

Pad Thai is planning a grand opening July 10 where everyone gets a free appetizer and people can try food as mild as Thai fried rice or a spicy as the Pad Ped – stir-fried bamboo shoots in red curry paste.

Owner Kanlaya Browning currently operates successful Thai Orchid restaurants in Castleton and Plainfield, but she named her new Carmel restaurant after her restaurant’s signature meal.

“Pad Thai is the most popular Thai dish,” she said, noting that it comes with a choice of meats ranging from chicken to shrimp. “But if (someone) didn’t like seafood, we make everything vegetarian or gluten-free.”

An unbeatable lunch menu price and the ability to choose your meal’s spiciness – ranging from mild all the way to “Thai hot” – are likely to make Pad Thai a welcome addition to downtown Carmel.

Thai food is known the world over for its abil-

ity to ignite an explosion of flavor and spice in diners’ mouths, and Pad Thai is no different.

“Some people actually cry,” Browning said.

And the waitresses can always make recommendations for each person’s tastes – but some entrees like the Drunken Noodle are always going to be spicy because of the ingredients used.

Staples like Pad Thai, Sweet and Sour Chicken or Cashew Chicken are always going to be crowd pleasers.

“The food is also very healthy,” Browning said.

“It has lots of vegetables and it’s not oily.”

The restaurant has ample parking in an underground garage and it’s open for lunch and dinner.

Reservations are usually not needed unless the meal is for a large group.

Downtown flooding inspires action

Angry residents of Emerson Road in downtown Carmel vented their frustrations to the city council about flooding in the area that has been an issue for several years. government Several neighbors spoke about the drainage problems, hoping that someone in city government could find the money to fix the issue. They said the flooded streets can be so bad that they can’t go to work or receive ambulances in medical emergencies.

Desra Simons spoke at the meeting, asking her disabled husband and son to stand for the crowd. She said they both have serious medical needs and the flooding puts them at risk if they have a sudden emergency.

“I have no tolerance for anyone who stand in the way of keeping them safe, hence the anger and frustration you hear in my voice,” she said.

Mayor Jim Brainard and the city council all agreed at the meeting that money should be taken out of the city’s “rainy day” reserve fund to fix the problem. But they got hung up on the process to make it happen.

Council President Eric Seidensticker said he has asked for an estimate of the costs, but Brainard said no estimate can be given until city engineering does a review of the site.

Unfortunately, Brainard said there’s no money in the budget right now to even start with engi-

neering. So now the council has to first vote to appropriate money for engineering and once the estimate is in, then do a second appropriation for the project costs.

The city council voted unanimously to approve a bill funding $1 for the project with the idea that the actual amount would be filled in later.

It’s believed the final project cost could be a few million dollars, maybe up to $4 million to improve the capacity of nearby Little Cool Creek which drains the neighborhood’s streets.

“I understand there has been a lot of work done, but there needs to be more,” said Emerson Road resident Charles Demler. “We need the help of the mayor and the city council to work together to solve this problem.”

“I wanted to be able to share a milkshake with my granddaughter again.”

After my stroke, I had medical issues that made it impossible for me to go directly home. The people at the hospital told me about rehab and therapy available at Westminster Village North. My daughter visited the newly renovated health center and decided it was the place for me.

My private Medicare suite was spacious and comfortable; and the staff really cared about my needs.

My experience with rehabilitation therapy was superb.

The equipment was brand new and the therapists were well-trained and helpful. I was eager to go home, but will always appreciate Westminster Village North.

City Council recap

Compiled by Adam Aasen

What happened: The council introduced a bill dealing with CRC finances.

What it means: The proposed ordinance would establish a revenue deposit fund so it’s easy to track the CRC’s TIF money. The bill would also specify which actions would be taken if there’s not enough TIF money available in the account.

What’s next: The bill was sent to the Finance, Administration and Rules Committee which meets July 17.

What happened: The council approved a new ordinance dealing with turning restrictions.

What it means: The ordinance would clear up some confusion about where cars can turn in two specific areas. It prohibits turning into Carmel High School’s main entrance between 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. The ordinance also prohibits a left turn to access the City Center parking garage through the median opening at the intersection of Range Line Road and Winona Drive.

What’s next: No further action needed.

What happened: The council introduced an ordinance regarding weight restrictions on roads.

What it means: Due to the construction closure of U.S. 31, many large semi-trucks have been seen taking routes through Carmel, which leads some city officials to be concerned about wear-andtear on roadways. And in some circumstances – such as the viral photo of a semi-truck stuck on the Main Street roundabout – these streets can’t accommodate large vehicles. This ordinance would add the following streets to the existing code: Old Meridian Street, Guilford Road from 116th Street to Old Meridian, Main Street from Illinois Street to Keystone Parkway, 116th Street from Illinois Street to Rohrer Road and Illinois Street from 116th Street to 136th Street.

Local deliveries would be an exception.

BIGGER HOME WITHOUT EVER LEAVING YOUR HOUSE

What’s next: The ordinance is sent to the Utilities, Transportation and Public Safety Committee which met in special session July 14.

What happened: The CRC addressed the potential sale of a former Old Town dump site.

What it means: As previously reported in the Current in Carmel, the CRC received one bid for this property. It was from Old Town Design Group for $65,000 in cash and more than $168,000 in area improvements such as road repairs, improved connectivity and a pocket park. The minimum asking price was $203,000, but with the area improvements, the buyer would spend $233,000, so it’s possible that the council would approve this scenario.

What’s next: The council has to wait 30 days and then can negotiate with any possible buyers, including Old Town Design Group.

Trees are dying out in Carmel’s parks and officials are trying to stay one step ahead of the unstoppable pests causing the damage.

Emerald ash borers – a environment green beetle which is an invasive species in this area – feed on the park’s ash trees until they die out. It’s a problem that has prompted articles in The New York Times, detailing the pest’s growing prevalence in the Midwest that has baffled scientists who try to combat the insects.

In Carmel’s Central Park, the number of dead or damaged trees has climbed from 100 to 200 trees. The ash borers are now threatening West Park, killing off the outer ring of ash trees this summer.

Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation Director Mark Westermeier said the ash borers have moved across Meridian Street and now are affecting the west side of the city.

“They haven’t all been infected yet, but I think we’ve taken down over 500 trees in the last year that are dead and we have a ton more to take down in parks that are on the eastside of Meridian Street,” he said.

And that doesn’t include all the ash trees that are threatened along the southern part of the Monon Trail – which the parks department maintains.

Westermeier said the parks department has

been prepared for such a situation by planting other species of trees for an inner ring of protection about six years ago. When the ash trees die off, there will be another set of trees there until new replacement trees grow to full size.

Westermeier said the parks department plans to plant a variety of trees in the vacancies, which he said is important to ensure one species of tree doesn’t die off and leave an area empty.

He said there isn’t much they can do to try to save the trees because it doesn’t make sense financially.

“The only thing you can do is treat them, and to treat them on an ongoing basis is just not economical from a parks standpoint,” he said.

“It’s cheaper for us to buy new trees than try to save them.”

Help kids during back-to-school Commentary by Jeff Worrell

A No. 2 yellow pencil freshly sharpened, a glossy folder with Joe Namath on the front and a soft pink eraser are the Volunteerism items that come to mind when I remember my back-to-school and school supplies tradition.

For most, the annual ritual of heading off to the office supply store to put a check mark next to every item on a detailed, teacher-supplied list, is a happy, memorable time.

But for some in our town, the thought of a list with a $150 price tag becomes dreaded news and in many cases, a hill too steep to climb.

Fortunately, we don’t have to look the other way and wish there was something we could do to help. There are people and a place providing a safety net right here in our community, very focused on this one important aspect of a child’s elementary school experience. The Merciful Help Center is located on the campus of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church.

It is there where more than 1,800 children will receive not just a backpack stuffed with learning necessities but some important extras carefully provided.

When asked why she comes back year after year to volunteer since 2007, Pam Curtis said, “Amazing to see children’s faces light up when they come to get their supplies. The parents are so appreciative and I know we are providing an

opportunity for students to retain their dignity and not feel different from other children.”

The rigorous application process for admittance to the program starts in March and is now closed. On July 25, those accepted will be able to pick out the color and type of supplies appealing to each child. This important distinction makes “Tools For Schools” a very unique program. But even more incredible is the fact that the program will also include for each child a pair of shoes, socks, lightweight jacket, a book and underwear.

But why tell you about this today if the program is closed? There are 1,800 children signed up and coming even though the program is running slightly behind on donations. Somehow, someway…they will take care of every child and make it happen.

But, if you have the means to make a cash donation that could go towards a folder with Barbie, Transformers or Andrew Luck on the front, you would be a hero deserving of your own folder cover. Every contribution counts and the kids need you.

An Indy Film Fest director with ties to Carmel has seized every opportunity to pursue his dream of making movies

By Joseph Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com

Sean Clark. Freeman soon asked Clark to accompany him on a second journey into Haiti to produce “The Country Club,” a short documentary on the only golf course in the country.

The course has since been converted into a refuge for the roughly 500,000 homeless Haitians still in need of homes.

“That experience was probably the most pivotal moment as far as realizing I could do this for a living,” Freeman said. “I had something unique, I had a style I was developing, and then Sean was like the missing piece as far as being able to create on my own terms.”

The duo, under the title of “The Moving Picture Boys” produced two feature-length documentaries and various commercial productions to help pay the bills.

“The Ballad of Shovels & Rope,” the duo’s most recent project, began with a chance introduction fostered by friend Paul Bannister, an independent art manager in Nashville. The up-and-coming folk band Shovels & Rope, the result of a married couple’s individual solo projects turned partnership, needed live video to pitch to promoters. The couple, Cary Ann Hearst and Michael Trent, traveled from town to town in a van along with their dog, recording in the vehicle or in their own home.

“It ain’t what you got, it’s what you make.”

4-H Fair: Food, fun, projects and lots of animals

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com The fun begins Thursday as the 2014 Hamilton County 4-H Fair officially opens to the public and runs through July 22.. As the days click away prior to the start, 4-H projects are event being judged and displayed inside various buildings and the approximate 1,700 livestock animals that will call the 4-H fairgrounds home for the next few days will move in Wednesday.

There is no charge for admission or parking at the 4-H Fair, and most activities are provided free of charge.

Hamilton County 4-H Youth Development Leader Kathleen Bohde said projects from the 2,000 4-H’ers will be on display to the community – showcasBohde ing the work and knowledge gained by participants.

“I see the fair is like the final exam,” Bohde said.

“The fair is a way the 4-H’ers get to showcase what they’ve accomplished throughout the year.

It’s also an opportunity for the public to learn about the projects. The kids love to share the information – these are experts on the projects.”

Hamilton County has added one new project this year – creative writing. Bohde said the project has more than 90 4-H’ers participating.

“That is huge for a first-year project. We thought 10 to 15 would be a success for a pilot year to get our feet wet,” she said, adding the projects includes a variety of writing styles including short story, poetry, comic book, microfiction (50 words or less) and children’s story.

“There was a demand to give youth an opportunity to expand their writing skills.”

Hamilton County Purdue Extension officials estimate between 15,000 and 20,000 people will attend this year’s fair. Because the fair does not charge admission, officials say they have no way of knowing the exact attendance at each year.

“Weather affects attendance the most – if it is extremely hot or stormy,” said Hamilton County Purdue Extension Director Susan Peterson. “We get a great Peterson feel where our attendance is based on food sales and trash. We have the same

food vendors who keep accurate records and can tell us year-to-year where we are at.”

Special events for the 2014 4-H Fair include puppet shows (noon and 2 p.m. July 19), Ballerina’s Academy of Dance (1 p.m. July 18), Demolition Derby (6 p.m. July 20), Street Dance (8 p.m. July 21) and a blood drive sponsored by the Hamilton County 4-H Council and the Indiana Blood Center (3 to 7 p.m. July 18). Blood drive participants will receive special discounts for fair food. Live music will be provided by Cooke and Belle (7 p.m. July 18), Rusty Bladen (6:30 and 8:15 p.m.) and Jeremy Morris & Harvest Road Band (2 p.m. July 20).

A cake reception to honor the 100th anniversary of President Woodrow Wilson establishing extension nationwide will be conducted at 6:30 p.m. July 17 in the Exhibition Center. Peterson said historical items and photos from Hamilton County will be on display at the celebration.

The fair isn’t just for 4-H’ers.

In addition to the food, animals, projects and various events, the community has several opportunities to showcase their talents. Open events for the public to participate include the Pet Parade, homemade ice cream contest, ice cream eating contest, youth talent contest, youth and adult tractor pulls and the Farmer Olympics.

“In my 25 fairs, one of the things we hear annually is it is such a positive atmosphere for families of all ages. It’s the promotion of the family,” Peterson said. “It’s really not about a ribbon

Donors will receive a voucher for a free milkshake courtesy of Hamilton County Farm Bureau. and a ticket to upgrade a meal in the Hamilton County Producers Tent to use any time during the 2014 4-H Fair, along with other incentives provided by the Indiana Blood Center - the agency through which lifesaving blood and blood components are supplied to over 60 member hospitals throughout central and southern Indiana. The Blood Center provides vital assistance through other related services including specialized blood typing for organ transplants, viral marker testing, tissue banks and the National Marrow Donor Program.

Help 4-H’ers feed the hungry - Hamilton County residents can join the Hamilton County 4-H Program and Good Samaritan Network in the 10th annual “4-H CAN Make a Difference” food drive in conjunction with the Hamilton County 4-H Fair. The public is encouraged to bring nonperishable food items such as canned soup, vegetables, beans, peanut butter, pasta, cereal/oatmeal, powdered milk and rice to the fair. The food banks strive to acquire nutritious food for low-income families and individuals in our community. Drop off items in Exhibition Center Hall B during the 4-H Fair July 17 through 22.

they get – it’s fun and exciting, but it’s about the project, goat or pig that they are proud of what they brought to the fair.”

Peterson said like last year, swine will move-in on July 18 and non-auction animals will leave on July 20. The decision was a proactive one to prevent the potential of swine flu or other diseases from spreading.

“The incubation time is shorter,” she said. “It’s a precautionary move which was viewed very positively last year by the state board of health.”

Apocalypse frau

FROM THE BACKSHOP CarmelFest hits the highest note What a swan song it was for outgoing CarmelFest Chairman Jeff Worrell! With near-perfect weather powering a can-do, allvolunteer team, the event, presented by the Rotary Club of Carmel and several sponsors (Current in Carmel among them), was, by any and every measure, a resounding success!

Kind of like the fireworks that capped it on July 4. There wasn’t a single lull in activity or attendee traffic July 3 or 4, and the festival just might have topped 60,000 in attendance for its two-day run; it didn’t hurt that the “Greatest Festival in Indiana” encompassed a Thursday and a Friday, leading into a “recovery weekend” for many. The energy seemed superabundant from the Kidzone north through the marketplace and Gazebo area and to the North Zone. The layout was modified to encourage more pedestrian traffic, and that paid off. We talked with a number of food vendors and others selling wares, and everyone was upbeat.

One of the really terrific facets of CarmelFest is that its leadership always listens. The improvements may seem minor to the attendee, but they are heavily considered before being implemented, all with an eye on improving the experience. And, thus, that was achieved.

Don’t expect Worrell to ride off into the sunset.

Although an able Gary Sexton will assume the reins of the festival, Worrell will be focusing on, among other things, sales of Spark Buttons, which help to defray the costs of the glorious fireworks presentation, and BANG, the exclusive fireworks-viewing and dining/ entertainment option atop the parking garage of the Center for the Performing Arts. The festival continues to evolve, which is incredibly energizing, and who knows what’s next? All we can assume at this point is that whatever growth or expansion is headed our way, Sexton, Worrell and their fellow volunteers will make decisions for all the right reasons. Bring on 2015!

Commentary by Danielle WIlson

Reunited, and it feels so good Commentary by Terry Anker Growing up in rural Indiana, I was fortunate to attend the largest of the several high schools in the surrounding area. Still, it left my graduating class at about 180 kids or so. It seems kind of quaint today with increasing density and urbanization leading to annual matriculation numbers in the many hundreds. But many around the county found themselves part of considerably smaller groups. Class sizes of 75 or 80 per graduating class were not uncommon.

Sometimes, the classes were even smaller. The debate in our fine state about the optimal size for a high school, or even a school corporation, may continue as it has uninterrupted for decades.

Over the years, this column has addressed issues related to access to higher level coursework in countryside secondary schools and the costs associated with maintaining individual buildings, gymnasiums and transportation services for each discrete community. Yet like most of us, I remember my high school years with a

sense of some nostalgia. Sure, there were those moments of teen angst that left me imagining myself as a character from “The Breakfast Club.”

All in all, I look back on those times fondly and enjoy seeing my former classmates.

This year commemorates a significant anniversary of our class’s completion. The plans were set and the invitations delivered. Unfortunately, news came this week that pathetic responses have reduced the scope of the event. It turns out that many folks have moved on, moved out and are not moved to come back.

While many others run from seeking a connection with old friends. Can we all walk the same path and yet end up in such different places? Can rose-colored glasses filter out the good memories for a few and the bad memories for others?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.

–Elbert Hubbard

I have just had a small taste of the apocalypse, my friends, and I can say with some degree of confidence, the flavor humor leaves much to be desired.

Months ago my husband Doo and I planned a vacation to his family’s lake house in northern Indiana. To help minimize the need for parental involvement, each of our four kids were allowed to invite one friend. Then Doo learned he had to work, so he was out, as was our oldest when his friend also needed to cancel. That left me with six children for four glorious days at a 100-year-old cottage with no competent boat driver. Good times!

The first day went alright, though I may have, sort of, accidentally crashed the aforementioned boat into the pier before I realized it was just too choppy to be on the water.

Oopsy. That night, however, all hell broke loose.

I awoke around midnight to gale-force winds and tornado sirens, followed quickly by a power outage and the realization that my twins had just turned 13. Coincidence? I think not.

Displaying unusual cool-headedness though, I herded short ones downstairs and away from the wall of lake-facing windows, found and distributed flashlights, and calmly wished my new teenagers a happy birthday. After an hour of Pop Tarts and Nintendo-DS playing, we all headed back to bed, confident we’d have electricity by morning.

No dice. On my bike ride (the triathlon is looming!), I found tree branches and power lines down about a half-mile from the house in both directions, with nary a utility truck in sight. Ah well. Amish Day would just be arriving early this week. Only, Amish Day was soon pluralized, and the full extent of not having electricity began to take its toll. In addition to the obvious side effects of a power outage – no television for World Cup action, no way to charge cell phones and DS’s, no refrigeration for recently purchased high-quality frozen custard, and no high-octane coffee to assuage my caffeine addiction – we also had to contend with the unforeseen consequences, namely what happens when the water stops running.

So here’s an LSAT question for you: If seven individuals must utilize only four toilets and each commode can only be flushed once until power is restored, how long before the noxious fumes and general nastiness force the occupants to cut their vacay short and head home? As it turns out, about 36 hours. That’s all we lasted, folks. Not even two days! In the event of the real apocalypse, it won’t be the zombies that do me in (I have teenagers, after all) but the lack of working and hygienic bathroom facilities. Peace out.

Heroin threat must be addressed Commentary by U.S. Sen. Joe Donnelly In many Hoosier communities, including Carmel, heroin use, addiction and overdose deaths are on the rise.

Opinion Prescription drug abuse also remains a serious and related problem, as many heroin users report having first abused prescription drugs before turning to heroin.

As your U.S. Senator, I am partnering with others to fight back against heroin use and prescription drug abuse. I am working and will continue to work to leverage federal resources to benefit state and local drug prevention efforts and provide support for law enforcement.

Recently, I brought together stakeholders in Hamilton and Boone Counties to discuss the ongoing and emerging effect of prescription drug abuse and the rise in heroin use throughout central Indiana.

I heard from law enforcement, school leaders and elected officials about the challenges they face keeping drugs off our streets and the need to educate young people. During this meeting, I let everyone know that we’re all in this together – local, state and federal officials – and stressed that by partnering we can develop the best ideas as to how to further combat the increased levels of heroin use and ongoing prescription abuse in our communities.

To help fight the drug and heroin epidemic

from the federal level, I recently introduced bipartisan legislation with Sen. Kelly Ayotte (RN.H.). The Heroin and Prescription Opioid Abuse Prevention, Education and Enforcement Act would require the development of best practices for prescribing pain medication and related pain management, would provide law enforcement with tools to fight heroin use and would establish a national awareness campaign to highlight the dangerous link between prescription drug abuse and heroin addiction.

The legislation also calls for a renewed emphasis on public awareness campaigns. While people are becoming more cognizant of the problem, it’s still clear from conversations I have had with local school leaders, elected officials and law enforcement that more awareness is needed. In particular, we need to do more to educate students and parents about the dangers of heroin.

In the coming months, I will continue to work with my colleagues from both parties as well as continue listening to local leaders and concerned citizens to determine what common sense steps we can take to confront the growing presence of heroin use and prescription drug abuse.

Joe Donnelly is a Democratic Senator representing the state of Indiana.

The need for transparency in Carmel Commentary by Dwight Lile Disclosure of public information to the public is fundamental to citizen’s control of government. Without knowledge Commentary of government plans and actions, citizens are left to the eccentricities of the few. Without knowledge, citizens are defenseless against tyranny.

We believe it is the duty of elected officials, managers, staff and volunteers to tell us what our government is doing in order that democracy can function.

When public servants become unanswerable to the public, democracy is in danger. Affirmative disclosure – transparency – is the answer.

TRANSPARENCY CHECKLIST BUDGETS: All budgets require full, public disclosure, including all departments or agencies that give or receive taxpayer funds. A five year retrospective should be developed for comparison. Graphs tend to add to our understanding.

REASON: Budgets will identify government objectives and priorities as well as skill in achieving targets.

MEETINGS: Open meetings that are advertised as to when they convene and what will be on the agenda. Should also be video recorded and available in archives.

REASON: Citizens can meet officials and exchange ideas in meaningful dialogues, as well as having actual records of statements and their context for research purposes.

VOTING RECORDS: Citizens need to know the true political actions of elected officials and convenient contact information.

REASON: Officials need feedback to know what the taxpayer is really thinking. Too often, acts of government can be misrepresented and distorted to achieve political goals and ‘damage control.’

EMPLOYEE DIRECTORY: With a cross reference to job classifications, including email addresses to enable citizens to contact their elected officials efficiently.

REASON: Efficiency in communications and enhanced responsiveness to citizens.

AUDIT RESULTS: Objective audits by responsible, unbiased professionals will tell taxpayers about the management quality of government

employees and reveal questionable practices.

REASON: Vigilance in fiscal matters is insurance against fraud and inefficiency.

CONTRACT RULES: Provide bidders for goods and services with fair knowledge of process. List bidder’s contracts, and note those who make campaign contributions.

REASON: Taxpayers can look for unfair or favorable treatment of vendors. This disclosure will discourage fraud.

LOBBYISTS: Government should disclose the lobbyists it employs. Lobbyists are frequently employed to influence the outcome of legislation, often in favor of government over citizen.

REASON: Lobbying should be limited to those functions which are beneficial to the community at large. Failing that, they should be terminated.

PUBLIC RECORDS OFFICER: Government should expedite the search of public records as a right of citizens to know. Current technology enables virtually instant access.

REASON: Public access to records is essential to knowledge about government activities.

The government is required by law to provide this service.

CARMEL SHORTFALLS: BUDGET: Carmel has engaged in a series of policies which deliberately obscure public transparency. Public funds are deliberately transferred to a “private” company known locally as the 4CDC and the mayor subsequently argues that taxpayers are not entitled to know how the public funds are used. Ironically, the President of the 4CDC is Ron Carter, a carmel city councilor of long standing, who also seems to feel that the public does not deserve to know how its money is spent. The mayor cites legal arguments as to why he doesn’t have to disclose the uses of Carmel taxpayer dollars. If Carmel’s government were transparent, this situation wouldn’t exist.

Please call your councilor or Mayor Brainard and ask for better tools for our government. Ask them to adopt transparency.

Carmel graduate leads festival for fellow film lovers Chris Lloyd's five must-see films at Indy Film Fest

“I, Origins” – Michael Pitt plays a molecular biologist who thinks he’s found the answer to the mysteries of the cosmos in his lover’s eyes. Think “Inception” meets “The Tree of Life.”

“Life After Beth” – A zombie romantic comedy featuring rising stars Dane DeHaan (“Chronicle”) and Aubrey Plaza (“Parks and Recreation”). Teenage romance blooms until Beth dies tragically … but then, miraculously, she comes back!

“Bluebird” – This bleak, mournful drama set in frigid Maine features Amy Morton as a school bus driver who makes a terrible mistake that imperils the life of a small boy and the stability of her entire family. Reminiscent of “Winter’s Bone.”

“Tu Seras un Homme (You’ll Be a Man)” – A tender coming-ofage dramedy, this French film examines the growing friendship between a shy 10-year-old boy and a troublemaker 20-year-old who walks into his life.

“Point and Shoot” – This fascinating documentary follows the harrowing real-life adventures of filmmaker/journalist Matthew VanDyke, who decided to go on a postgrad school motorcycle jaunt through the Arab countries for “a crash course in manhood.”

Christopher Lloyd is a Carmelbased award-winning film critic with a bachelor’s degree in cinema from New York University and a master’s from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University.

By Jospeh Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com Carmel graduate Craig Mince is looking forward to another successful year for the Indy Film Fest now in his fourth year directing the event.

Mince has movies also directed the Indianapolis IMAX Theater since 2009, and he said growing up in Carmel served as one launching point for his love of film.

The original Carmel Theatre, Mince closed and razed in 1984, was where Mince first saw films like "Raiders of the Lost Ark", helping to spark a fascination with the medium.

“I remember going to that theater all the time,” Mince said. “That’s where the whole ‘film as an experience’ thing took off and kind of where my love for movies started.”

With Carmel’s relatively recent move into hosting arts events and incubating arts businesses, it’s been interesting to see the parallel between Mince’s life and his city’s fascination with art, Mince said.

Mince became involved in the Indy Film Fest after former member Brian Owens stepped down.

He was initially looking to fill a programming role when he joined the all-volunteer organization, but he eventually took on the directorial role and his helped to shape its current vision.

This festival will feature filmmakers from more than 50 countries.

“This year’s entire lineup is absolutely amazing,” he said. “There are awe-inspiring documentaries that will shake you to the core and lighthearted romantic comedies. Because we don’t have a niche audience that we speak to, there’s a theme that organically comes from the movies being made.

This year’s theme is ‘coming of age.’”

Mince said that the one of the festival’s main draws is the ability to see rare films that won’t be publicly available for months or even years.

“These are films that will never pass through Indy theatrically,” he said. “Arthouse films, with the dynamic of distribution, will fly under the radar.

It’s a really neat way to see these movies with like-minded individuals, and a fun opportunity to interact with the filmmakers. A big chunk of the filmmakers that made these films come to Indy to see the audience’s reaction.”

The Indy Film Fest recently achieved its Kickstarter fundraising goal of $8,000, which helps to create even more opportunities for fans and creators to rub elbows by funding hotel rooms for the filmmakers.

The festival runs July 17 through 26.

“I, Origins” – A molecular biologist whose study of the human eye points to evidence with far reaching implications about specific and spiritual beliefs.

“I Believe in Unicorns” - Unicorns tell the story of an awkward teenage girl who escapes to a fantasy world when her first romantic relationship turns increasingly violent.

CarmelFest celebrated best of city The praises of civic-minded resident Jack Badger have been duly noted in Current in Carmel by those who know him - particularly by Jeff Worrell, who chaired CarmelFest for the past 22 years.

During a VIP sponsor reception on July 3, Mayor Jim Brainard and other guests honored Badger with the first annual Pillar of the Community Award.

Badger is known for his persistent sales efforts to sell festival spark buttons to every attendee. He is also known is his impressive ability to secure donations for the festival. According to CarmelFest public relations director Cindy Roberts-Greiner, among the many donations secured by Badger were 3,500 bagels from Einstein Brothers Bagels.

According to Greiner, that was just the tip of the iceberg regarding Badger’s efforts.

After the VIP reception, a stroll around the grounds at City Center revealed a packed lawn with loyal fans waiting for The Wright Brothers to appear on stage. When they appeared, music honed from decades of harmonizing together floated through the evening air in familiar welcoming patterns. While it was reminiscent of the good ol’ days for many of us, for other generations it was just plain good music.

Cathy Morris, the accomplished violinist and vocalist, joined the band onstage, adding her own texture and energy to the musical mix.

Of course the food stands were popular, with everyone indulging in fried foods and sugar that they might eschew on a normal day — all part of the fun.

The KidZone was another popular part of the festival, particularly the animals. The petting zoo brought very tame goats, sheep and llamas to the event where children - even toddlers - were able to safely interact with them. The pony ride was a big hit. Older children rode alone, whereas, toddlers rode with help from their moms or dads.

The Koerner family, who have been residents in Carmel for only four days, were thrilled with CarmelFest and their new hometown. Dad Michael Koerner is a professor at IU Kokomo, but chose to settle his family in Carmel. Older son Benjamin Koerner rode the pony ride alone, somewhat tentatively, but still seeming to enjoy.

Younger brother Elliott Koerner, still a toddler, expressed unrestrained glee as his mother, Wendy Koerner, steadied him on the pony.

CarmelFest attracts more than 50,000 people annually. It is entirely free to attend thanks to its many sponsors which include corporations, city agencies and many dedicated individual and group volunteers.

CCP presents ‘I Married an Angel’

By Jessica Fox • jessica@currentincarmel.com

The lesser-known musical “I Married an Angel” is coming to Carmel thanks to the Carmel Community Players, who hope to theatre wow audiences with their unique performance.

The play’s producer Vince Accetturo said he believes it’s a hidden gem of musical theatre.

“It’s an old musical that’s not done very often.

It’s a very witty, fun show,” Accetturo said.

Accetturo will be playing the part of Peter Mueller, the quirky sidekick of the lead male character Willie Perrin. Peter is often known for wearing bad toupees.

The play begins with main character Willie breaking off an affair he has been having and swearing that he will not marry anyone unless she is an angel. He is surprised when at that moment an actual angel appears.

Willie, who marries the angel, often becomes embarrassed by her abnormal ways including her inability to fib. Once the angel meets tavern owner Valarie Vincent she is introduced to how the real world works.

Characters will be dressed in late 1930s era costumes and classic formal wear.

In this performance tap, soft shoe and classic musical theatre dance will accompany the acting.

The little angels of the cast are Ava Benvenutti, 11, Piper Williams, 12, Rachel Smith, 14, and Emma Hedrick, 14.

Take a trip to ’60s with ‘Beehive’

By Joseph Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com

The sounds of the 1960s will ring in your ears and memories from that transformational decade will likely resurface when the theatre musical “Beehive” is presented at the Nickel Plate District Amphitheatre in Fishers on July 19.

The musical is a high-energy tribute to '60s girl bands, complete with performances of “R.E.S.P.E.C.T.” by Aretha Franklin and “Where the Boys Are” by Connie Francis, “Beehive” tells the story of five women reminiscing about their time together as singers, imitating the various groups of the time.

It will also be the first performance by new Fishers theatre company, the Nickel Plate Players.

“I wanted to do the show because it kind of covers the women’s movement, and I think that’s an important aspect to show,” said Ashton Wolf, director of “Beehive” and executive director of the Nickel Plate Players.

“Beehive” will be the first production to come from the work of Fishers residents.

“We have a really talented group of people, and a responsible cast, which is awesome in an unpaid production,” said Carrie Barnthouse, an actor and assistant choreographer.

The company currently rehearses at the Ji-Eun Lee Music Academy in Fishers, which also is one of seven sponsors. Despite developing the show in the modest school, located in a commercial

park off of 126th Street, the production relies on the enthusiasm of community members.

“There’s so many people over here now that I think having something new right in the vicinity kind of attracted them,” said Sandy Thorne, an actress and “Beehive” co-producer. “It seems like it’s easier to get the girls interested in it, but these fantastic voices showed up. Even people usually behind the scenes, it’s not much fun, people came to us saying ‘I love what you’re doing. How can I get involved?’”

The ultimate goal of the Nickel Plate Players is to establish a permanent home for community produced theatre.

Ways to stay healthy at the gym

SPECTACULAR ESTATE AUCTION PROMINENT STOCK BROKER/V.P. PRIVATE CLIENT INVESTMENT ADVISOR Friday, July 18, 2014 @ 8PM PREVIEW @ 7PM

From the IU Strength blog In 2006, defensive lineman Brandon Noble almost lost a leg because of an infection from methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which can spread wellness through locker room contact.

Locker rooms are one of the most overlooked health risks for high school, college and even professional athletes, not to mention fitness enthusiasts who use public or private gyms.

Good locker room habits lower the risk of infections that pass from one person to the next, according to Tavio Henson, a strength and conditioning coach at IU Health Sports Performance.

Henson has been convinced of that since his college microbiology class.

“We cultured things like barbells, dumbbells and other training equipment,” he says. “It was pretty gross to learn all the things that popped up in that petri dish.”

Henson offers tips to prevent the spread of infectious diseases with safe practices at the gym.

Shower and wash your hands. Ideally, everyone should shower immediately after working out. When that’s not possible, Henson says you

should thoroughly wash your face and hands all the way up to the elbows until you can get to a shower. Use your own soap and never share.

He also encourages clients to wear gloves when working out with weights — and wash the gloves immediately after they are used.

Sanitize equipment before and after you use it. “Clean up after yourself, especially on cardio machines,” Henson says. If necessary, take your own towels and/or anti-bacterial solution or wipes.

Don’t leave dirty laundry lying around.

“When I was playing college football, we were encouraged to take our laundry home and wash it as soon as possible,” Henson says. Athletes who use equipment (think football) should clean it at least once a week.

Wear flip-flops in locker and shower areas. Buy throw-aways or wash and sanitize them after each use. Locker room floors and showers are loaded with fungi looking for a foot where they can hitch a ride.

Hold teammates accountable. “In college, we called each other down when someone didn’t throw dirty towels where they needed to be,” says Henson. “Accountability helps everyone do the right thing.”

Divorce is undoubtedly one of the most challenging and difficult experiences a person can face in their lifetime. finance With divorce comes an array of emotions, new responsibilities and a realization that you need to pick yourself up by the bootstraps and tackle the world alone.

With so many questions still up in the air, one aspect of your life that you should make sure you’re in control of is your finances.

Here’s a checklist of things to think about to help you pick up the pieces after a divorce: Estate planning One of the most overlooked aspects after a divorce is estate planning. People often forget to update the beneficiaries of their retirement accounts and life insurance policies.

Furthermore, you should seriously consider executing a new will or trust to prevent your former spouse from controlling the assets you want to leave to your children, grandchildren or even a charity.

Retirement planning While you were married, your ex-spouse may have controlled the household budget, investments, life insurance policies and liabilities. Now all these responsibilities have been placed on your shoulders and it can be quite daunting to figure out where to start.

Take time to itemize all of your assets and liabilities after a divorce is finalized. Secondly, create a working budget around your new household income to make sure you get a handle of what’s coming in versus what’s going out.

If you’re inheriting an interest from your exspouse as part of a divorce, it is really important the transfer is done properly to avoid unnecessary taxes and penalties. Make sure you work with a competent financial professional to ensure the titling and transfer of assets is done in accordance with IRS regulations.

Insurance planning You should re-examine your life insurance, long term care and health insurance policies to make sure they meet your needs moving forward. Long term care insurance is especially important to review for women because they

typically live longer than men and usually require more care in their latter years of life. Additionally, if your former spouse carried the health insurance, you may need to look at the private market for new coverage for you and any dependents.

College planning for your children If your divorce decree requires you to contribute funds to pay for your children’s college education, look into accounts like 529 college savings plans to help you get started. Start with a systematic deposit program to set aside specific funds to help pay for your children’s future education costs.

Joint liabilities It is imperative to understand the potential joint credit and liabilities you may have with your spouse before the marriage ends. Attaining your credit report early on in the divorce process will help you identify what joint liabilities you have with your soon to be ex-spouse. Not only is this important to help sort out the divorce proceedings, but most importantly, it helps you have greater control of your credit score to make sure it isn’t compromised during the negotiations.

Once the divorce is finalized, be sure you check your credit report again to make sure you are not financially attached to your former spouse.

Social Security planning If your marriage lasted more than 10 years and you never remarried, you may be eligible for up to 50 percent of your ex-spouse’s social security benefit at full retirement age. Furthermore, should he or she pass away, you may be eligible for their entire social security benefit under the survivor’s benefit provision.

It is important to understand the nuances of social security before you elect your benefits, such as the income limits that could potentially reduce your benefits if you elect to take your social security early. Examine your options closely so you can maximize your income in retirement.

Eighteenth-century Bullring in Ronda, Spain (Photo by Don Knebel)

Ronda’s wings and rings

Commentary by Don Knebel

Ronda, a picturesque city in southern Spain, was once famous as the home of the first person to attempt to fly. Ronda is famous today as the home of the family that Travel invented modern bullfighting.

Ronda, founded by Romans in the third century B.C., sits on a plateau split by a nearly 400 feet deep canyon carved by the Guadalevin River. When Muslims from North Africa conquered southern Spain in 711 A.D., Ronda became an important center of Islamic culture and learning. Abbas Ibn Firnas, one of the great polymaths of Islam’s Golden Age, was born in Ronda in 810. Among his inventions were corrective lenses, a method for cutting rock crystal, a water clock and a metronome to time his music.

At age 65, he strapped feather-covered wings on his back and flew from a Cordoba mountain to a jarring, but otherwise safe, landing below.

Protected by its strategic location, Ronda was not captured by Christian forces of the Reconquista until 1485. Its illustrious Islamic past was then forgotten as Muslims were driven from Spain. Modern Ronda visitors are not told about Abbas Ibn Firnas, but instead learn of Pedro

Romero, a Ronda bullfighter who popularized his grandfather’s novel idea of fighting bulls on foot using a gracefully maneuvered cape to conceal a sword for dispatching the bulls. Bullfighters previously killed from horseback, reflecting the hunting games from which bullfighting was apparently derived. Every September, the rich and famous come to Ronda for a week-long festival honoring Pedro Romero, who killed 5,600 bulls, and Francisco de la Goya, who painted bullfighters and designed Romero’s colorful outfits. Ronda’s 18th-century bullring, flanked by a statue of a bull poised to charge, now includes a museum of bullfighting. Nearby restaurants feature bull’s tail, an acquired taste.

For his bullfighting exploits, Pedro Romero is honored by a statue in a Ronda park. For his frequent visits to Ronda’s bullfights, Orson Welles is honored in a Ronda street name. For being the first man to fly, Abbas Ibn Firnas, forgotten in Ronda, is honored with his name on a crater on the moon.

Puppy chew time leads to healthy gums and teeth

Commentary by John Mikesell

a casual manner, without damaging their teeth or bolting down over large bone fragments. There are always outliers however – dogs who, despite being raised with a ready supply of raw meaty bones, chew so aggressively that they are in danger of breaking teeth or swallowing dangerous chunks of bone. (The behavior is far more common, though, in dogs that were denied the pleasure of bones early in life.) If your dog is an aggressive chewer or greedily bolts any fragment of bone he can break off, he should be given a safer alternative to bones, such as food – stuffed rubber toy. This will allow him to experience the zoned out bliss of chewing and licking bits of food out of safe facsimile of his hereditary chew item.

Many people think chewing as “just a puppy thing” but the fact is, canines in the wild spend quite a bit of time every day Canines chewing on bones, in order to extract every last calorie and mineral they need. Our dogs have a ready food supply, so they don’t have to spend every spare moment in pursuit of every last nutrient, but the chewing behavior is hard-wired in them, anyway.

Encouraging the chewing habit by providing a steady supply of appropriate chew items can promote a dog’s mental and emotional health.

Chewing also helps keep the teeth and gums clean and strong, and encourages the flow of cleansing, antibacterial salvia through the dog’s mouth.

Pups who are given the private space and leisure time to chew on a raw, meaty bone or food stuffed toys will quickly develop the habit of

spending time by themselves chewing contentedly – and are less likely to develop separation distress or anxiety.

When pups are raised from the earliest age with ample opportunity to chew on raw meaty bones, most learn to take their time and chew in

Creating protection from the sun Commentary by Randy Sorrell This stunning pergola was the result of the retired homeowners determined quest for dappled shade coupled with enhanced outdoors privacy on their south-facing patio. If you own a home under similar circumstances, you appreciate the lack of livability as the summer sun relentlessly pounds the patio and bounces off the back walls of your home. Enjoying these blazing spaces is often not possible from noon on, without well thought shade solutions.

SCALE Elegant brick and mortar columns to match the home with commanding 10’x10’ posts growing out of them into the 4”x12” oversized beams were necessary for this luxury home on Sagamore Golf Course. Obtaining the correct scale is always critical but especially so with large open spaces overlooking a fairway. As a bonus, the beefy lumber fueled more shade than normal and the overhead unit placement was maximized as well. Even the columns and posts contribute to the shade.

The picture illustrates how a properly planned

pergola can offer relief from the sun. Take a moment to study the shade produced on the patio and realize that the scorching feeling is considerably minimized and temperature more tolerable.

The custom cedar lattice detail on the end will house a retractable shade that hides behind the overhead members. That, coupled with a climbing clematis vine, will completely block the sun as it shifts below the site line of the pergola. It’s especially appreciated around dinnertime when its time to retreat from the day with a favorite beverage.

Creating protection from the sun is one of our most frequent conversations we have with clients. Custom shade strategies vary for each project but have a similar feel. Pergolas, shade trees, heavy drapes or blinds, custom lattice, shade sails, porch roofs (lanais) and other creative thoughts all have an important role in our quest.

Redesign a kitchen or bathroom on a budget Commentary by David Decker Planning a home remodel can sometimes be an overwhelming process. With all of the potential upgrades to consider, it’s no indoors wonder that the costs can seem like they add up quickly. But it’s important to remember that a redesign project can be as extensive as you make it. With careful planning, you can transform your kitchen or bathroom, even if you are following a strict budget. For the savvy shopper who is determined to upgrade your kitchen or bathroom space on a budget, here are a few tips that can help you make a change without breaking the bank.

Appliances and fixtures: Old appliances can really date the look of your kitchen. Despite the popular myth, all of your appliances don’t have to necessarily match. You can update one appliance at a time, provided that you find a model that coordinates somehow with the others.

Often matching the handles is the easiest way to add continuity between different appliances. If stainless steel is out of your price range, you can often find black or white colored appliances for much cheaper. Additionally, new sink fixtures can make a world of difference. Update your faucets or sink basins for a high impact update in either the kitchen or the bathroom.

Resurface the cabinetry: Cabinetry endures quite a bit of wear and tear over the years, especially in the kitchen or bathroom. The fluctuating

temperatures, moisture and leftover messes can cause damage that washing and resurfacing the cabinets could easily repair. You could try to cut costs by resurfacing the cabinets yourself, or consult a professional to help you complete the work. You could also try swapping out your existing hardware and drawer pulls for new ones.

Lighting: Lighting is an essential decorative element, especially in the home. Proper lighting

makes color more vibrant, while drastically affecting the energy of the room. Softer lighting will create a more elegant feel while bright lighting will make the room cheerful and inviting. Replace your old sconces or hanging fixtures with new ones that feature a different style. Make sure all of the lighting fixtures fit together cohesively to tie everything together into a complete look.

New décor: Start with the basics, such as a new table or chairs set in the kitchen, or a different towel rack set in the bathroom. Decide whether your curtains, blinds and window decorations could benefit from an update. If you are redesigning on a tight budget, focus on the small details.

Try changing out little touches such as display dishes, framed pictures or potted plants to make a big difference in the overall look of the room.

The good news is about redesigning a space is that a few simple changes can completely reinvent the look of the room. If you’re on a tight budget, survey the room and prioritize the areas that really need the most work. See for yourself that a tight budget doesn’t have to keep you from creating a vibrant and user-friendly kitchen or bathroom space.
