Carousel prompts 2 petitions

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Two petitions are circulating online regarding the City of Carmel’s plan to spend $101 million on new roundabouts, an antique carousel, incentives to attract a luxury city news hotel and more.

The city is considering purchasing a 1907 hand-carved Dentzel carousel, which would cost approximately $5 million, including the purchase of land and constructing a building around it. In addition, about $10 million to $15 million would to go toward luring an Autograph Collection Hotel by Marriott to Carmel City Center. Construction costs could be $38 million and the Carmel Redevelopment Commission would help pay those costs and back up the mortgage loan payments.

The first petition, entitled “Stop Carmel taxpayer funding of a carousel and luxury hotel,” has more than 730 supporters as of Aug. 4.

It was created by Dr. Tim Hannon, a Carmel resident who focused mostly on the carousel and hotel aspect of the proposed debt package. He said he came up with the idea to start a petition after attending a recent city council meeting where Mayor Jim Brainard spoke at length to defend the carousel and the hotel.

“One city councilor told me that only two people showed up to express concerns about these projects, but I don’t want the city to think that’s all there is,” he said. “I started this petition to give people a voice and let the city know that there are people who want other options to be explored.”

Hannon said it’s wrong to dismiss local hotels such as The Renaissance as not prestigious enough and to “provide $15 million for the hotel because the private sector can’t justify the economics.”

“A luxury hotel would not serve business interests, as most businesses and all government contracts have caps on allowable hotel rates, nor would it provide an affordable option for leisure travelers wanting to stay downtown,” Hannon stated.

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said he’s not bothered by the petition.

“One petition started three or four days earlier,” Brainard said. “Each is getting about a hundred supporters a day.”

Brainard said the council likely won’t vote on the bonds until Aug. 21 or later.

Henry Mestetsky, an attorney and member of the CRC, started a petition in response entitled, “Petition in Support of Carmel Carousel and Luxury Hotel.” There were 176 supporters as of Aug. 4.

“Most Carmel residents agree that Mayor Brainard’s vision has turned Carmel into a world-class city,” he told Current. “They show

their support with their vote, but not necessarily at every town hall or online comment section. I created the petition to explain why I support the carousel and luxury hotel proposals and to give a voice to my neighbors who agree with me, even if they probably have better things to do than sign petitions.”

Mestetsky noted that Indianapolis spent millions to build the Conrad Hotel and the JW Marriott. He also said the carousel, similar to the ice skating rink, is part of Brainard’s placemaking efforts. Mestetsky said Carmel has very little direct property tax debt and only about 4 percent of the city’s total debt is paid by property taxes.

“All cities invest in amenities, to varying degrees of success, but Mayor Brainard has a track record of making the right bets,” Mestetsky stated.

Brainard said it’s likely there would be a small charge to ride the carousel and that the building could sit on as little as an acre of land. He said he is considering a nonprofit to manage or financially support the carousel.

As for the hotel, Brainard showed some preliminary sketches that include a night club called the Feinstein Club, where Michael Feinstein, artistic director for the Center for the Performing Arts, would be a regular performer. He said the city would be an owner of the hotel, but not the sole owner.

“What people don’t understand is that Marriott rarely builds hotels,” he said. “Usually it is a developer who builds the hotel and then the Marriott will manage the hotel. We get their reservations system, their name and their experience.”

Marriott would pay a percentage of its revenue to the owner of the hotel, which would be the City of Carmel and Pedcor. That money would be used to pay off the mortgage, but Brainard said it’s possible there could be a profit on top of that. He said Carmel could sell the building when completed or buy out Pedcor’s share.

CARMEL Construction will begin on a new roundabout at CONSTRUCTION Fourth Street and Range Line Road on or after Aug. 7. The project will include deconstructing the south Arts & Design District arch, which will be rebuilt and reinstalled during the anticipated 30-day closure. Alternate routes include Keystone Parkway, Fourth Ave. SW, Main Street and 126th St. Construction continues on a roundabout at Carmel Drive and Guilford Road. This will be a full closure until mid or late August, weather and utility delays permitting. Detour routes will be marked as Pennsylvania and Range Line Road (north-south); Main Street and 116th Street (east-west).

Construction is under way for a roundabout at Smokey Row and Gray roads. The project has been delayed because of utility relocation but is expected to open on or after Aug. 9.

The intersection of Towne Road and 116th Street is closed for 45 days for the construction of a two-lane roundabout. It is expected to reopen on or after Sept. 13. Motorists traveling north on Towne Road will be detoured west along 126th Street to Shelborne Road, and traffic heading south will be directed to 106th Street by way of Ditch or Shelborne roads. East and westbound motorists will be detoured along Ditch Road and Shelborne Road.

Hazel Dell Parkway and 116th Street is closed for roundabout construction until mid-August.

Spring Mill Road is closed south of the Main Street roundabout to 116th Street except for local traffic.

Dispatch City suspends ties with vocal coach – Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said the City of Carmel has suspended its ties with vocal coach Blair Clark as a child seduction charge against him works its way through the court system. Clark denies the allegations. Clark had worked as a consultant for the city and performed at several city functions. Brainard said the city expects Clark will return to his consulting role if he’s found innocent or the charges are dropped. Clark was scheduled to perform Aug. 9 at the Summer Concerts at the Gazebo Series, but British Invasion cover band 45RPM will take his place. Clark and his attorney declined to comment.

Roundabout may be possible

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Once considered untouchable, Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said he’s reconsidered whether the Main transportation Street and Range Line Road intersection could be turned into a roundabout one day.

It’s not definite that a roundabout could replace the traffic light at that intersection, but Brainard said city planners have looked at the utilities in the area and are “reconsidering” the idea instead of ruling out the possibility.

“It does get backed up at that intersection,” Brainard said. “So it’s something to look at.”

For years, Brainard has said it was unlikely that a roundabout could be put at that intersection because it is too small and constructing a roundabout there might necessitate tearing down buildings on the corner. The city has also proposed purchasing the parking lot at PNC Bank and building a mixed-use development that would likely go up to the corner.

With more than 100 roundabouts and dozens more on the way, Brainard has con-

sistently said that nearly every intersection could be transformed into a roundabout.

But many times he suggested that Main Street and Range Line Road would keep its traffic light, which he said is appropriate because it was one of the nation’s first.

“We could literally become a one-stoplight town one day,” Brainard told Current in September 2016.

In the 1920s, Carmel resident Leslie Haines designed an electric stop-and-go traffic signal. He offered to place his automatic signal at Main Street and Range Line Road, which had heavy traffic and the Town Board agreed. It is believed to have been the first traffic signal in Indiana.

Having a parent in a safe, comfortable place with highly trained medical staff nearby and activities to keep them engaged can go a long way in reducing the amount of time you spend worrying. That’s why we’re here.

Cline eager for homecoming

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Ryan Cline is psyched for this cominghome party.

The Purdue junior basketball basketball player will join his teammates in an exhibition against Team Canada at 7 p.m.

Aug. 11 at Carmel High School. Cline played on the Class 4A state championship teams as a freshman and sophomore. Purdue, representing the U.S., will be preparing for the World University Games Aug. 19 to 30 in Tapei, Taiwan.

The 6-foot-6 guard said it will be nice to play at Carmel one more time.

“I thought I was done, but it’s nice to go back and get in front of the hometown crowd,” Cline said. “Hopefully, we’ll get a win against Canada. That’s all I really care about.”

Cline started the final seven games last season, averaging 5.4 points for the Big Ten regular season champion Boilermakers. He hit 41.3 percent from 3-point range.

“There were times that were a struggle.

Everyone goes through that,” Cline said.

“I’ve been working on more off-the-dribble stuff, creating stuff for my teammates, be-

ing able to go off the dribble and make a pull-up bucket. I feel like my game has extended a great amount, and, hopefully, I get to show that this year and at Carmel.”

Playing in the World University Games should give Purdue a boost on the season.

The Boilermakers, who lose leading scorer and rebounder Caleb Swanigan, reached the Sweet 16 of last year’s NCAA Tournament. Cline said the early start will be good for team chemistry.

“We’ll have seven or eight games we’ll be able to play and get to know each other’s strengths and weaknesses,” he said.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for ages 18 and younger. For more, visit purduesports.com.

Golf kept centenarian young

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com To Charlie Schweitzer, his secret to longevity is simple.

“I played a lot of golf,” birthday said Schweitzer, who turns 100 Aug. 8.

And he does mean a lot of golf, traveling all around the world to play.

“I played four or five times during a week when my wife died, because I didn’t have much to do,” said Schweitzer, whose wife, Dorothy, died in 1986.

The Barrington of Carmel assisted living resident played his last round of golf at 97.

“I tried to hit some balls a few months ago and I fell and ended up with a sore shoulder,” Schweitzer said.

Schweitzer, who had a seven-handicap in his prime, was a member of Ulen Country Club in Lebanon for 50 years. Schweitzer belonged to a golfing group called the Eastern Seniors.

“I did a lot of traveling playing courses all over, like Pebble Beach (Calif.) and in Australia,” Schweitzer said.

The World War II veteran served as a radio operator for three years in the U.S. Army’s 349th Infantry Division.

“I got tossed out of a Jeep and had to go to the hospital in Rome,” Schweitzer said.

Schweitzer retired from RCA after 45 years in 1980, having moved to Indianapolis from New Jersey in 1960.

His son Ken, 66, lives in Carmel with his wife, Mary Lou, and owns Carmel Glass & Mirror.

His oldest child is Linda Elliott, 74, a Zionsville resident. His sons, David, 73, and Don, 57, and daughter, Helen Bower, 70, live in Indianapolis.

Schweitzer smoked moderately until he was 90, then gave it up.

“That helped me get to where I am,” he said.

There will be a party celebrating Schweitzer’s birthday at The Barrington of Carmel’s assisted living facility from 1 to 4 p.m. Aug. 12.

Derek Dial has been interested in space since he was a kid.

At 36, the Clay Middle education School teacher finally arrived at space camp.

Dial was selected to attend the Honeywell Educators at Space Academy at the United States Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville.

Ala. Dial, a STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) teacher at Clay Middle School, made an application in November 2016 and learned he was selected two months later.

“It was like applying for a grant. It was a pretty rigorous set of questions that I had to answer,” said Dial, who moved from Westfield to Fishers in January. “We had to write essays on how we are going to use the experience. They choose 200 teachers out of the world to go, and I was the only one selected from Indiana.”

Dial credited fellow Clay teacher Michelle Nelson, who previously attended the Space Academy, for motivating him to apply.

Dial spent 45 hours in a lab and classroom in the camp from June 22 to 26.

“It was a heck of an experience, a oncein-a-lifetime shot,” Dial said. “The best part was getting to actually collaborate and work with other teachers from around the world inside simulators and classroom instruction. The main mission of the training is to regain our passion for space and travel and try to engage our students by

telling them stories.”

Dial said they can share with their students the different kinds of careers available in the space industry.

Dial had the opportunity to be commander of a mockup shuttle mission and fly the shuttle.

“We got to work with the brand new Orion simulator,” Dial said.

The teacher used the MAT, the multi-axis trainer, which simulates how astronauts would feel in a tumble spin during re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere.

“It simulated the violent spin in the capsule. We had a lot of fun,” Dial said. “We also got to meet some very inspirational people, like astronaut Mike Foreman, who flew on some shuttle missions.”

In addition, Dial said they met Homer Hickam Jr., the author of “Rocket Boys,” which was later renamed “October Sky.” The teachers learned about land and water survival training and interactive flight dynamics programs.

“NASA has given us quite a bit of materials that we have access to online for our classrooms,” said Dial, who spent 12 years in the U.S. Navy prior to becoming a teacher.

CHS grad earns chemistry gold

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Brendan Yap was part of a little U.S. history at the International Chemistry Olympiad. achievement The 2017 Carmel High School graduate was part of a group of four U.S. students who earned gold medals in Nakhon Pathom, Thailand.

The U.S. students competed with 293 students from 75 nations from July 6 to 15.

The top 36 earned gold medals. Yap placed 32nd. Harrison Wang, Hinsdale, Ill., finished fifth; Joshua Park, Lexington, Mass.; was 16th; and Steven Liu, Cupertino, Calif., was 28th.

“The key for me was preparation,” said Yap, who plans to major in computer science and electrical engineering at MIT. “In both 2016 and 2017, I went to the U.S. National Chemistry Olympiad study camp, where they train 20 students for two weeks. At the end of the camp, the team of four is selected. I attended the study camp last year but didn’t make the IChO team.

During those two weeks, we attended lectures in the mornings, lab practical in the afternoon and took mock IChO exams in the

Through the experience, Yap learned to have confidence in his ability and to trust in the training.

“In practices I was unsure of myself, especially with the lab tasks,” Yap said. “However, I felt more comfortable during the actual competition. When I felt stressed before exam day, my teammate, Harrison, advised me to trust in the amount of preparation that we’d done.”

Yap said he enjoyed meeting people from around the world.

CHS grad reflects on working in White House during Watergate scandal

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com When Holly Holm Guthrie attended her 10-year Carmel High School reunion in 1976, she earned the distinction of being “The One Who Succeeded Beyond cover story Our Wildest Expectations.”

For someone who described herself as “not a great student” and never being a “terribly ambitious person,” the decade after graduation was a wild one, and very public. It included working at NASA, rubbing elbows on Capitol Hill and serving as secretary to one of the most famous men to end up in jail for the Watergate scandal: Chuck Colson.

Pretty impressive for an unassuming girl from smalltown Indiana.

“I don’t think anyone really expected me to work in the White House. They thought I’d be a secretary in an insurance firm all of my life,” Guthrie said. “I’m grateful for the privilege to have done it. I think it helped me appreciate those who are trying to lead now.”

From Carmel to the Capitol

The Holm family moved to Carmel when Guthrie was about 5 years old. She had an older sister and eventually two younger brothers.

As a high school student, Guthrie asked CHS Principal Dale Graham what he thought she should do after graduating, and he suggested a two-year secretarial program at Ball State. She took his advice, and after completing the course sent an inquiry to U.S. Rep. Richard Roudebush to see if he knew of any relevant job openings in Washington, D.C. “I just wanted to go someplace fun,” Guthrie said. “I didn’t want to stay in Carmel because it was such a small town.”

Roudebush was on the space committee and sent her resume to NASA, which offered her a job. She left Carmel with a suitcase in one hand and a sewing machine in the other, she said.

“It was a very exciting time to be at NASA. We were the office that would take the congressmen down to the Apollo launches,” said Guthrie, who met former vice president Hubert Humphrey at the Apollo 10 launch in 1969.

Her connections eventually led to a job in the White House as a secretary for Chuck Colson, who was appointed special counsel to President Richard Nixon in 1969. At the time, Colson was known for his ruthless style, making news for confirming in a tongue-in-cheek campaign memo that he would walk over his grandmother if necessary, a memo he dictated to Guthrie.

Nixon was re-elected by a landslide in 1972, but the celebration didn’t last long when the public began to learn more about the administration’s ties to a break-in at the Watergate office complex. Colson had left the White House

to return to private practice by the time the scandal captivated the nation, and Guthrie went with him. She watched firsthand as her boss was questioned and indicted for his role before pleading guilty and being sentenced to prison.

“I didn’t so much see that rough-and-tumble side (of Colson), but I certainly know he was capable of it,” Guthrie said. “When we left the White House and started the law firm again, he was very protective of me particularly.

He would write my parents letters to assure them that I would not be tainted by this. He was always concerned about someone else.”

Guthrie’s younger brother, Woody Holm — named after the Woodland golf course near his childhood home — said the family didn’t worry about Guthrie during the Watergate years.

“It was probably 10 years after Nixon’s resignation it really soaked in that they really were doing illegal things and got caught, so I don’t know that it impressed us that much that she was there,” said Holm, now a Fishers resident.

“We were sure she wouldn’t be involved in doing anything

wrong, and I’m sure Chuck kept her isolated from that. She probably didn’t know what he was doing and probably for the best.”

But her long-time best friend, Shari Pratt Adams, whom she met as a student at Orchard Park Elementary, felt differently.

“We didn’t talk a lot during that time, but enough that I felt really compelled and wanted to be engaged and connected with her,” said Adams, a Carmel resident. “You have a sense of alarm when those things start happening within our national news and you know Holly’s there in the middle of it. It’s a concern.”

Guthrie was interviewed by special prosecutors but never accused of wrongdoing.

“I didn’t see unethical things happening. Nobody asked me to do unethical things,” Guthrie said. “I think they really thought what they were doing was for the good of the country.”

After Washington

When Colson went to prison, Guthrie was burnt out on politics and left the law firm for a job in Chicago. But Colson’s influence on Guthrie was far from over.

During the Watergate investigation, Colson converted to Christianity. After being released from jail, he founded the Prison Fellowship ministry to share the hope he found in Christ with those who are incarcerated.

Guthrie said watching Colson’s transformation had a profound effect on her. “Chuck was really instrumental, because I think he could tell looking at my lifestyle when his was changing that mine had never really looked like I was walking with the Lord,� Guthrie said. “I think that an important part of my coming to know the Lord was watching him come to know the Lord.�

In 1985, she married Don Guthrie, who was a singles pastor at the time. A decade later the couple moved to San Antonio, where Don serves as the senior pastor at First Baptist Church. They have two adult sons and two grandchildren.

Guthrie has remained close with the Colson family through the years. She attended the funeral of her former boss in 2012. “I think if you were to ask Chuck now from heaven he would say the second part of his life with Prison Fellowship has so much more importance to it than what he did those first 50 years,� she said.

Guthrie now spends much of her time sewing pillows stitched with inspiration from Scripture. It’s a far cry from her busy days in the White House, but she has fond memories of that time. “When you look back and you see the importance of it all, at the time it didn’t feel like it was as big as it all turned out to be,� she said. “I don’t have any regrets being there. It really was a phenomenal lesson in people and relationships and power.�

Many of Guthrie’s family members still live in Indiana, including brothers in Fishers and north Indianapolis and her mother in Michigan City. Guthrie returns to the area frequently to visit them.

One of Guthrie’s favorite recent memories in Carmel is enjoying lunch at Woody’s Library Restaurant, which was the site of Carmel’s public library during Guthrie’s childhood. “I remember being so impressed by the lady who checked out our books in the library. They used to write on a library card the dates it would be due, and they’d go and give you the book. I was so intrigued by that,� she said. “I can see now I love to do that sort of administrative work, so to go into that restaurant and eat a hamburger was just kind of amazing.�

Goodbye, summer

o b s e r v a tion Celebrating centennial spirit

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker At the turn of the 20th century, our own Hoosier state could claim one of its own as the sitting U.S. vice president. Interestingly, Charles Fairbanks could walk only two blocks to visit his friend, former President Benjamin Harrison. The streets of our state’s capitol were crowded with almost 160,000 citizens with new building projects already under way, inviting many more to join. Civic leaders had made impressive steps in the few decades since the war.

And their aspirations for what Indiana could become were unbounded.

With the celebration of our 200th birthday now well behind us, Indiana is once again in a forward-looking posture. Hoosiers are notable in Washington. We have sent another son to serve as vice president, and with him have gone many Indiana men and women.

So, come now the Sagamore Institute, our home-grown international think tank, to host Centennial Spirit. On Aug. 12, on the grounds of the Levy Mansion on North Meridian Street, as Dr. John Wernert, its vice president points out, “re-enactors and professional historians will discuss the importance of this era of Indiana citizenship.” Current Gov. Eric Holcomb will host the inaugural pinning of members of the “Society of Sagamores,” recognizing living recipients of our state’s high civilian honor, the Sagamore of the Wabash. I urge anyone interested in the event to join the fun – especially Sagamore recipients. For more, visit indianacitizen.com.

Here at home: Putin’s Information War Commentary by Alex Morozov Information is changing our world dramatically. The foundation of our values, like war and peace, are getculture ting changed as well. The idea of a “hybrid war” was not invented by Russia. Russia started using this concept back in 1995 with the Abhasia occupation, then in 2008 in Georgia and in the 2014 war in Ukraine and the occupation of Crimea. The last known act of hybrid war was in 2016, when Russia was tampering with U.S. elections and trying to corrupt U.S. officials. Those are just the tip of the iceberg, publicly known facts, but there are thousands and thousands of acts of hybrid wars which were not disclosed and never will be.

The Information War is a part of the hybrid war strategy, and today Russia is waging a full-scale information war against the U.S. Even here in the Midwest, we are not removed from this war.

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s hybrid soldiers — agents of influence — are living right here among us.

In this Information War there is no need for guns. The best guns are pro-

paganda and lies. We can witness this war on a daily basis. It could be people wearing pro-Putin T-shirts or Carmel residents taking their families for a vacation to Russian-occupied Crimea, or people teaching their kids how great Czar Putin and his regime are.

There is nothing wrong to be a proud Russian or Ukrainian or any other nationality. Every nation has its own history and heroes. But Russia of Pushkin, Tolstoy and Tchaikovsky is very different from the Russia of Putin and the KGB. One message must be delivered very loud and clear: To protect our country and democracy, there should be no place for any anti-American, pro-regime supporter. The ultimate goal of any war is victory. For America, the victory in this Information War will be making our great nation better and its military stronger, and building a society which protects our Western values.

Alex Morozov is CEO of Swan Software Solutions, a company based in Carmel with three offices in Ukraine. He is founder of the Ukrainian Legion, a nonprofit raising funds to help the Ukrainian army.

Oh. My. God. I’m down to my last four days of summer vacation and I’m starting to panic. Where did the humor time go? What happened to my grand plans for bingewatching “ONB,” “Master of None,” “West World” and “House of Cards?” What about my goal to return to school with at least the hint of a tan? Why are there still four home-improvement projects sitting in my garage, including a half-painted bead board and a discarded trellis I picked up curbside?

Where did my acclaimed time-management skills disappear to these last few months?

Are they hiding with my skin’s supposed supply of melanin?

I know for those of you who work yearround or have young kids at home, June and July are just two more months to sweat through, but for teachers, I think I can speak for all of us when I say that these long days are much-needed for rest, rejuvenation and rediscovery of sanity.

And when we have to turn the calendar page to August, it’s like mourning the end of “Breaking Bad.” We’re privileged to have been a part, and know there will be other shows that are just as good, but we’ll spend a solid week moping about in a world without Jesse Pinkman.

That being said, my summer has been good, filled with travel, family and sleep.

And despite my subpar performance at meeting my proposed Netflix quota, Doo and I did manage to catch up on “Turn,” finish “Bloodline” and get deliciously back into “Game of Thrones.” Perhaps that’s why the thought of school starting is skyrocketing my BP. Great summer breaks are that much harder to see end.

Peace out.

Sitting pretty Commentary by Dick Wolfsie What has happened to the art of sitting?

People nowadays don’t just sit; they have to be doing something. humor When I was young, people in my New York City suburb sat on their front porch, but they were mostly protecting their valuables or waiting for the police to arrive.

English manors had sitting rooms. People did a lot of yakking to each other while they were sitting, conversing about the murder that just occurred in the garden or speculating about why the downstairs maid was spending so much time upstairs.

These were talking rooms, not sitting rooms.

Sitting isn’t wasting time: It’s how lazy people have made their impact. Hard-working folks didn’t come up with the idea for the backhoe, the chainsaw and the snow blower. No, it was the sluggish and indolent solving the world’s problems while completely at rest.

Cracker Barrel Restaurant has tried to bring back sitting as an art form, lining their front porches with sturdy rocking chairs. Instead of sitting in them, though,

&ɪɸɗ WÉ› VÉ­ČąHĘ?Ę…ČľÉ? \Ę?ĘŚÉ Ę“ČžČ­É? ČŤHĘŁLʔɚ FĘ?QĘŁĘ…OWDʤLĘ?Éš

people are staring at the price tags or complaining about the 30-minute wait for the meatloaf special. Many Cracker Barrel customers sport suspenders and dangle toothpicks from their mouths. This is sit waiting to happen.

Part of the charm of sitting on a porch is publicly displaying that you have the time to just park your rear in a chair. No bills to pay, chores to do or places to go.

Sometimes, I sit in my driveway in a beach chair and wait for my wife to get home. When my neighbor Charlie sees me, he grabs a stool from his garage and plants himself next to me. Then he wants to chat endlessly about politics. Lately, I’ve mustered up the nerve to tell Charlie I’d rather be alone.

Some people just don’t sit well with me. ••• Go to Indyfringe.org to see times and dates for Dick’s six performances of “The Art of the Jewish Joke.â€?

The Shop, a vintage-style T-shirt store, will be the newest addition to the 72 businesses that line the walkexpansion ways of Clay Terrace. The store’s team will add five or six new employees to its staff of 12 to run the Carmel storefront, which will open Sept. 1.

The store focuses on sports apparel and offers Indiana-themed T-shirts, fleece sweaters, hoodies, glassware and keychains. It also has licenses with many Indiana universities as well as Miami University, Negro Leagues Museum, Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Indianapolis Racers and Indy Eleven.

As of now, The Shop co-owner Brian Kelly is helping prepare for opening day by painting and changing flooring.

“We’ll be ready to go,” he said. “We hope people will be ready to come in and take a look.”

Although he said many retailers sell Indiana apparel, what sets The Shop apart is its comfortable and durable fabrics and originality.

Vintage-style T-shirts line the wall of The Shop’s first storefront in Broad Ripple. The Shop will open its second storefront at Clay Terrace Sept.

“Our designs really are stuff that hasn’t been done before,” said Kelly, who lives in the Geist area.

For Kelly, the design process begins with brainstorming sessions that are often based on the sports and other events going on each season. He designs everything himself.

In addition to pre-designed products, The Shop also offers custom designs for businesses such as breweries and restaurants.

The Shop began in 2011 as an online store called Hayes & Taylor. It eventually merged with Janeczek’s Brick Shirt House to create the store it is today.

“When they mentioned their food pantry was challenged by getting personal care items, it sounded like something we could help with,” AlphaGrapics owner/president Michael Kile said.

The Making it Happen campaign for essential basic items began July 10 and runs through Sept. 24. There is a collection can in the store, 1051 3rd Ave. SW. Hours are 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday.

“We made a first drop of a half-dozen boxes of donated items, so that is something that we want to keep going,” Kile said. “If there are community centers or places where we can bring a collection barrel, we will do that. We’ve been distributing flyers here to all of our clients and doing a little item in our newsletter. We have a goal to drop off a hundred items every couple of

The items include feminine hygiene products, shampoo and conditioner, hair care products, toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap and body wash, skin care, lotion and deodorant. These items are not allowed to be purchased with food stamps.

The company has been involved with Pets Healing Vets and food drives in the past. It also conducted a breast cancer fundraising campaign because Kile’s wife, Rhonda, is a cancer survivor.

Stephanie Jenney and her family have a strong emotional tie to the March of Dimes.

The nonprofit’s march of dimes mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality.

“We became involved with March of Dimes five years ago after our second son, Eli, passed away at 1 month of age due to premature complications,” Jenney said.

“Since then we’ve been involved in fundraising and volunteering for March of Dimes to help babies all have a healthy start.”

Eli was born at 26 weeks and weighed one pound, 10 ounces. He died after developing necrotizing enterocolitis, a disease that most often occurs in premature babies in which intestinal tissue becomes damaged and dies.

The Jenney family, from Carmel, is the 2017 March of Dimes Central Indiana Ambassador family.

Jenney’s husband, Jeff, came up with the idea to organize a dodgeball fundraising tournament at Heritage Christian School July 27. The event raised $7,141.17 for the March of Dimes. Three teams competed from Van Ausdall & Farrar, Inc., an Indianapolis technology company where Jeff is vice president and general manager.

“The main mission of the March of Dimes is to help prevent birth defects, help prevent premature births,” Jenney said. “So we’ve been doing this in Eli’s memory, to

Jenney said medication likely helped her carry her third son, Justin, to full term. Justin will be 3 years old Aug. 12 “I believe that’s due to research that helped determine certain medication helps prevent prematurity,” Jenney said.

Her first son, Ethan, was born prematurely at 32 weeks (three pounds, 10 ounces).

“He has overcome complications and is now a healthy 7-year-old,” Jenney said.

There is a March of Babies Walk annually in June, and the Signature Chefs Auction is set for Nov. 2 in Indianapolis.

Jenney said the family wants to help make the Dodgeball fundraiser an annual event.

Yogurt myths — Yogurt is often marketed as helping digestion because of probiotics – the good bacteria that our guts need for good health. Bacteria affect our metabolism and obesity rates, among other things, so the connection seems logical. This may be true but scientists don’t fully understand how the millions of bacteria already in our bodies work together. What we do know, though, is that most yogurts are packed with sugar, which contributes to obesity and other problems — so if you enjoy yogurt, find some that isn’t full of empty calories.

Artomobilia roars into Carmel Aug. 26

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel Artomobilia has come a long way since its humble beginnings in 2008.

“I think we started off with 42 cars cars,” event director and founder John Leonard said. “Over the years as the Carmel Arts & Design District has grown and blossomed, our event has as well. This year we’ll have 438 cars. We’ve got more sponsors and support from the community than we’ve ever had. We’re going to have a great event.”

The IU Health North Carmel Artomobilia is set for noon to 5 p.m. Aug. 26 at Main Street and Range Line Road. ADESA is a presenting sponsor.

“We’ve maxed out the capacity, so what we’re looking forward to is Monon Boulevard being put in place. Perhaps we can take advantage of that in future years,” Leonard said. “Rather than looking at how we can add more cars because we’re at capacity is how we can add cars that are more interesting, more unique, nicer

cars. We’ve seen the quantity has sort of plateaued because of the real estate. The quality continues to increase.”

Leonard said there will be several body styles of Camaros.

“We’ll have a collection of Camaros that are coming from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum,” he said.

There will be a collection of cars called RestoMod, restoration plus modern parts/ technology.

Troy Trepanier, a nationally recognized

custom car builder, will help judge the RestoMod Class.

Leonard said the event has had several cars that have been winners at prestigious car shows. Leonard wants to make it an even bigger event to draw more visitors from surrounding states.

“That’s why we added the Fuelicious event a few years ago,” Leonard said. “The combination of the two events gives us a broader reach of people that will come from St. Louis, Chicago and Louisville. They’ll come for a variety of things to do. We’re conscious people want a great experience.

We’re growing the number of events in the future.”

Fuelicious, an Indiana Children’s Wish Fund fundraiser featuring 50 distinct collector cars, will be held from 7 to 11 p.m. Aug. 25 at Lucas Estate in Carmel.

Artomobilia and Hoosier Salon have partnered to feature a plein air paint-out.

Several Indiana artists have been chosen to paint around the cars.

Rodizio Grill is a meat-lovers dream that features a bottomless brunch of authentic Churrascaria-style meats, sides, salads, mimosas and Bloody Marys.

Brunch at Rodizio Grill is basically a rotisserie-grilled meat-fest. Throughout the entire meal, our server came over with several amazing selections of beef, poultry, pork and Brazilian treats sliced right at our table off of large skewers.

You can keep the meat coming throughout your entire brunch by placing a little wooden token green-side up on the table (red indicates a pause, and laying your wooden token on its side indicates that you’ve finished brunch).

As for sides, I highly suggest the fried polenta. The polenta is perfectly crisp on the outside and creamy on the inside. During brunch hours, Rodizio Grill switches out some of its sides for more traditional breakfast fare like eggs, bacon and potatoes. The full Rodizio brunch includes unlimited meat, salad bar and sides.

Rodizio Grill’s bottomless mimosas are available in a variety of flavors for $10, or you can whip up your own custom Bloody

Composer produces 1st album

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Caroline Ahn’s hope is her first album provides comfort to listeners in need.

“Since the music is very music soothing and calming, we would like to use this album to touch people’s hearts and heal people who are ill, who are discouraged, who are depressed, who are lost and who are lonely,” Ahn said.

The Carmel resident composed “Classical Ballad: The First Album,” a collection of piano solos. The pianist, Doyeon Diane Kim, a former student of Ahn, performs the music. While Ahn was getting her doctorate at Indiana University she was Kim’s instructor.

Ahn said it took her approximately six months to write nine songs for the album.

The album was directed and produced by a Korean Agency called The Classic Art by CEO Yohan Shin, Ahn said.

“When he suggested me to write the pieces for the CD, he really wanted to make a classical album that’s more applicable or approachable for ordinary people,” Ahn said. “Something that’s easy to listen to and everybody can enjoy it.”

Ahn, now a professor at Anderson University, moved to the United States from South Korea 15 years ago. She previously worked as a professor at Indiana Wesleyan University. She and her husband, Dr. Soong Ahn, a chiropractor, moved to Carmel sev-

eral years ago.

Kim came in from South Korea to perform two concerts at Barnes & Noble stores, July 28 in Carmel and July 29 in Indianapolis.

Proceeds from the two-day event served as a fundraiser for the Sound of Hope.

The traveling orchestra group, which was started approximately two years ago, visits retirement centers, orphanages, assisted living facilities and hospitals around the Indianapolis-area about once a month.

More questions and answers on outdoor designs Commentary by Randy Sorrell Q19. How does budget influence a project?

Most clients have some sort of budget, and knowing a broad range certainly guides the process outdoor living and helps set expectations. Material selection impacts cost as well as size of patio and plant maturity. Squeezed budgets require open minds. Big budgets stimulate fun options. Both fuel creativity.

Q20. Curves or straight lines?

The style of home and imagined feel of the space strongly drives that. We love curves but they are often overdone. The most compelling modern spaces are linear and built from straight lines, squares and rectangles. Natural spaces can be more “curvelicious.” I especially dig using linear on patios and long flowing curvilinear bed lines to pull each together.

Q21. What’s on your patio playlist?

Always Sting. Pink Martini’s, Mumford, U2 (of course). Anything Songbook, authentic jazz, blues. All driven by the evening, event, mood, wine and food.

Q22. What’s on your heavy grill rotation?

Grilling is thrilling. Soy/garlic salmon, balsalmic asparagus with toasted sesame seeds, dry rubs, herbs, sesame tuna naked or with soy/ginger, basil pesto chicken/ pearl onion/bell skewers. Can’t forget Brussel sprouts with bacon chunks/onion and garlic. Sliced cauliflower heavily seasoned.

Text me for recipes.

Q23. HGTV. Help or hindrance?

ONE OF THOSE DAYS? HELP IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER.

317.867.0900 SCAN FOR SPECIAL OFFER!

Q24. Ideal customer?

Happy, grateful, openminded, thrilled, calm.

Q25. Thrill us with details on the featured project!

Happy to! Very linear overall design. This picture is taken from the existing covered porch that we capped with noche travertine. The grill station in the background is very modular. Very simple yet commanding. The new grill was partially disassembled and housed inside the Hessit wall stone. Wonderful counter space on each side for prep and a very edgy bar counter that seems to float on the counter.

When to upgrade your van Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt It stinks getting tripped up by words, especially words which are practically identical. It’s like trying to distinguish between a set of twins who look grammar guy exactly the same, except that one of them has a birthmark on the underside of his right pinky toe. This seems to be the case with long-lost word siblings then and than.

An easy way to remember when it’s appropriate to use then is: then = when. As a general rule, you can use then as an adverb or an adjective with any sentence that has to do with time, what comes next, or what used to be. For NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING BEFORE THE CARMEL BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS Docket Nos. 17070011 V, 17070012 V and 17070013 V NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Carmel Board of Zoning Appeals will conduct a meeting on the 28th day of August, 2017 at 6:00 o’clock p.m., in the Council Chambers, Second Floor, City Hall, One Civic Square, Carmel, Indiana 46032, to hold a Public Hearing regarding the application identified by the Docket Numbers referenced above (collectively, the “Variance”).

The real estate made subject of the Variance is approximately 6.8 acres in size, is commonly known as 3900 East 96th Street and is located north of and adjacent to 96th Street, west of and adjacent to Lakeshore Drive and east of and adjacent to Marie Drive and is identified by Hamilton County, Indiana Auditor’s Office as Tax Parcel Identification Numbers 16-14-08-00-00-022.006 and 16-14-08-00-00022.004 (collectively referred to as the “Real Estate”).

The Applicant is seeking to expand the existing World Wide Motors Mercedes car dealership and service center, which includes the demolition of the previous Smart Car Center of Indianapolis building, as well as other site modifications. The Real Estate is zoned B-3/Business and is not located within any overlay zone.

The Applicant is seeking the following development standards variance approvals from the City of Carmel’s Zoning Ordinance (the “ZO”):x Docket No. 17070011 V - ZO Ch. 33.05.A.5: A minimum 15 foot wide bufferyard is required along 96th Street and the Applicant is seeking approval for a bufferyard that will be 2 feet wide in certain areas along 96th Street.

Docket No. 17070012 V - ZO Ch. 33.05.A.5: A Type C bufferyard is required along 96th Street and the Applicant is seeking reductions in the Type A planting requirements along certain areas along 96th Street.

Docket No. 17070013 V - ZO Ch. 14.04.09.3: A maximum of 80% lot coverage is required and the Applicant is seeking approval for 88% lot coverage.

A copy of the Variance requests that are described above and the accompanying plans are on file for examination at the Department of Community Services, Carmel City Hall, One Civic Square, Carmel, IN 46032, telephone 317/571-2417.

All interested persons desiring to present their views on the proposed Variance, either in writing or verbally, will be given an opportunity to be heard at the above-mentioned time and place. Written comments filed with the Department of Community Services prior to or at the Public Hearing will be considered, and oral comments will be heard at the Public Hearing. The Public Hearing may be continued from time to time as may be found necessary.

instance, use then to replace at that time: I called you five minutes ago. Were you asleep then? In addition, use then to imply the next in time, space or order: First we will eat tacos, and then we’ll dance in the fountain. Then can also be a substitute for words like accordingly or in that case: If you provoke that angry jellyfish, then you will probably get stung. Remember, then = when.

Although than looks eerily similar to then, its purpose is different. If then = when, then than = van. Allow me to explain: Do you or does someone you know own a minivan? I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a van owner inspect someone else’s van in order to compare each other’s vans.

For example: Wow, Dave, your van has dual DVD players in the back seat; your van is way cooler than mine. Than is used as a conjunction any time you’re making a comparison, as van owners often do: You didn’t get the heated leather seats? Mine is clearly better than yours. Remember, than = van.

Let’s put it all together in order to help you determine the most opportune time to acquire a new minivan: If you want to have a fancier van than Dan’s, then you should probably buy the one with satellite Wi-Fi.

This will stop outdoor nesting ants that entered the house to forage for food. If the ants are nesting inside the home, you will have to use ant bait to kill them.

Source: The Family Handyman Olive oil as beauty aid – While extra virgin olive oil is commonly found in most kitchens, it also has a place in the bathroom. There are many uses for it in your beauty routine, including: • Softens chapped lips – massage a drop or two into lips for soft, hydrated skin.

• Relieves diaper rash – it is gentle enough for baby’s skin.

• Removes makeup – dab some oil onto a cotton ball and gently wipe off all traces of makeup, even waterproof makeup.

Colossus of Ramses II near Saqqara, Egypt. (Photo by Don Knebel)

The treasures of Memphis

Commentary by Don Knebel

Visitors to Egypt often find their way to Saqqara and the famous stepped pyramid of Djoser, the forerunner of the travel Great Pyramids. Many of them miss the treasures of Memphis just to the east.

Memphis, situated on the west bank of the Nile River, became the first capital of a united Egypt in about 3000 B.C. and developed into a major port city. Ptah, the god of creation, protected the city from his temple in the center. The name of Ptah’s magnificent temple, rendered in Greek, provided the name “Egypt” for the entire nation.

After the Greek pharaohs established Alexandria in the fourth century A.D., Memphis began a slow decline and eventually fell into ruins. Ninth century Egyptian rulers used some of the rubble in constructing Cairo, about 12 miles to the north. Much of what remained found its way to museums around the world.

Some items surviving from the glory days of Memphis and its temple of Ptah have been collected in an open-air museum

I hereby certify that the annual financial report is true and accurate in every respect to the best of my knowledge and belief. I further certify that all contracts, vouchers, and bills for all payments made by the school corporation are in its possession and open to public inspection.

in the village of Mit Rahina, near Saqqara.

A 90-ton carved sphinx, probably honoring Hatshepsut, Egypt’s first female pharaoh, is the largest alabaster sculpture ever found.

The most popular item is an enormous statue of Ramses II, who ruled Egypt from 1279 to 1213 B.C. and is often considered the pharaoh of the Biblical Exodus. The intricately carved statue is almost 34 feet tall, without its missing lower legs and feet.

Upon its discovery in 1820, the colossus was offered to the British Museum, which rejected it because of the huge costs of transporting it to London. Today, the statue lies on its back in an enclosure designed especially for it. Another large statue of Ramses II, once outside the temple of Ptah, stands erect nearby.

If you get to Saqqara, don’t overlook the open-air museum of Memphis.
