Mixed-use development anchored by 1933 Lounge

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Carmel City Council unanimously approved a proposal by the Carmel Redevelopment Commission Aug. 1 CITY NEWS to spend up to $3.5 million to purchase land east of the Indiana Design Center for a three-story, mixed-use building with a lounge and restaurant and office space and 12 adjacent townhomes.

The original figure was $3 million, but Henry Mestetsky, director of redevelopment for the City of Carmel, said that figure needed to be adjusted to complete the deal.

The redevelopment at 111 S. Range Line Rd. would be a public private partnership between the CRC and LOR Corporation, an Indianapolis-based commercial real estate company and developer. Huse Culinary plans to open 1933 Lounge, a lounge and restaurant concept, as the anchor on the first floor of the 43,000-square-foot building. The top two floors will include office and mixed-use space.

of the site.

Craig Huse, CEO of Huse Culinary, said he has been looking to expand his company’s presence in Carmel for two years.

“When LOR brought this opportunity and location to us, we immediately knew it was ideal,” Huse stated. “We are thrilled to bring the 1933’s sophisticated lounge and restaurant atmosphere to Carmel and provide our guests with professional service while serving our signature menu items.”

1933 Lounge has locations in Fishers and downtown Indianapolis. Other Huse Culinary restaurants are St. Elmo Steak House, Harry & Izzy’s and The HC Tavern + Kitchen.

Funds for the CRC purchase would come from 2021 Redevelopment District Bonds.

The council requires the CRC to receive council approval when the bonds are used to purchase properties that cost $50,000 or more. Existing structures on the parcels would be demolished.

Carmel Climate Action Plan takes next steps

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com

The Carmel Climate Action Plan is moving forward with some changes.

The Carmel City CITY COUNCIL Council unanimously approved the resolution along with amending some wording changes and setting up a leadership committee at its Aug. 1 meeting.

The action plan sets greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets and provides strategies to reduce emissions for government services and operations. It is part of a process that began in 2017 when the council passed a resolution pledging to reduce carbon emissions.

“We went through the entire plan,” coun-

cil member Jeff Worrell said. “We did receive a written report that outlined a very comprehensive description of the cost of each of the 42 concepts that are in the plan. We then moved to some amendments.”

Worrell said the finance committee voted 4-0 to send it to the Carmel City Council with a positive recommendation.

Following council approval, a commuter line feasibility study of an intra-county transit system and an expansion will be made.

Worrell said the committee changed the wording from “Red Line” to “transit system.”

There also is a change in wording from “requiring” to “encouraging” employers to create commuter bicycling incentive programs and changing “requiring” to “encouraging” the replacement of gasoline-powered lawn mowers and other city-owned electric

yard equipment when gasoline-powered equipment is retired.

Council member Tim Hannon suggested an oversight leadership committee be established.

“The executive leadership group would ultimately prioritize the plan because we can’t do it all at once,” Hannon said. “They would provide resources and direction to the sustainability coordinator and report back to council on a regular basis.”

Hannon said the committee should consist of highly ranking representatives from key stakeholder groups, including Office of the Mayor, Carmel City Council, Dept. of Community Services, Utilities Dept., Engineering Dept., Carmel Clay Schools and Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation Dept., and aligning nonprofit organizations.

Through approximately 60 employees and 400 active volunteers, HSHC houses and looks after 500 to 600 animals in the shelter.

HSHC’s most urgent needs include more foster homes, Woofstock participation signups and a veterinarian medical director to enhance medical services. Additionally, Stevens strongly encourages families to adopt from shelters.

“In this building right now is your Maggie.

Client/Filename:

In December 2004, Rebecca Stevens’ life changed when her beloved dog, Maggie, suffered a slipped disc NONPROFIT that severed her spinal cord and left her with paraplegia.

The Humane Society for Hamilton County had previously approached Stevens regarding employment, but it wasn’t until that night she knew she would quit her corporate job and join the nonprofit, since she could take Maggie to work and give her necessary care and attention.

Stevens said while Maggie’s accident led to her joining HSHC, it also set the tone for the organization’s mission to provide animals with a chance at life, regardless of disability, breed, age, or medical issues.

“Our philosophy is driven by the original no-kill mantra, which is that every animal gets a chance, regardless of whether they’re disabled, old, broken, not pretty, whatever special medical needs they have, it doesn’t matter,” said Stevens, HSHC president/CEO. “Every animal gets a chance. If there’s a light at the end of the tunnel, then we will get them there.”

The Humane Society for Hamilton County is an open-admission, no-kill facility that functions as animal control and a shelter for Hamilton County animals as well as transferred animals from across the U.S. Last year, the organization took in approximately 1,000 animals at risk for euthanasia from other shelters, primarily those who had special needs, advanced age, bonded pairs, bully-breed dogs or had medical emergencies. HSHC has a placement rate that tops 98 percent.

“We’re one of the very few open-admission shelters in the country that is no-kill, in the way we’re no-kill, and achieving a 98 percent-plus placement rate,” Stevens said.

HSHC receives approximately 20 percent of its funding from the county, which is used to cover basic shelter, food and care for seven days for all strays. The remainder

CHS safety finds his talents on the football field, not in the pool

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Winston Berglund gave swimming a shot.

“I gave that up after sixth grade,” he said. “It was insane how many workouts they had every day. I honestly don’t know how my sisters do it. I hated it.”

Berglund found his niche on the football field. The Carmel High Berglund School senior has committed to Purdue University to play football in the 2023 season. His twin sister, Berit, a three-time 100-yard backstroke IHSAA state champion, has committed to swim at the University of Texas. Their older sister, Meredith, will be a junior swimmer for Purdue after competing at the University of South Carolina the past two years.

Berglund, a 6-foot-1 safety, had 91 tackles, including 60 solos, and two interceptions last season for the Greyhounds, who open the season Aug. 19 against visiting Louisville Trinity.

MEET WINSTON BERGLUND

Favorite athlete: Los Angeles Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey Favorite type of music: Country and rap.

Favorite subject: History Hobbies: Hanging out with friends, watching UFC and college football “He is very athletic, explosive and has great ball skills,” Greyhounds coach John Hebert said. “He used to be an outfielder in baseball, so he can really gauge the ball in the air. Winston attacks blockers with his hands very well and with a powerful punch.

I would also rank him as one of the best tacklers we’ve had here in my 27 years.”

Hebert said Berglund grew into a team leader as his junior year progressed.

“He has always been a very strong competitor who gives everything he has to the

team, but I noticed him frequently picking people up and bringing his teammates together,” Hebert said. “They view him as one of the most important leaders on the team.

I am leaning on Winston and classmates to shape this team using all of the lessons they’ve learned over the past four years.

They want to win a state championship, but I know they value impacting the younger players equally.”

Berglund said he expects to be a more complete player this season.

“Last year, I really didn’t know any techniques,” he said. “I was playing on my athleticism.”

Berglund said he gave up baseball before his junior year.

“I just knew that I loved football more and that was where my passion was,” he said.

Berglund plans to study business at Purdue but isn’t sure what aspect.

“I know I want to get involved in that area, because I have always been good at making up ideas that will sell and what people want,” he said. “I chose Purdue for the endless opportunities it has on and off the field.”

All CCS campuses to have SRO beginning this fall

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com When school resumes Aug. 10, Carmel Clay Schools will have met its goal to have at least one school BACK TO SCHOOL resource officer committed to every campus.

SROs have been stationed at Carmel High School and Carmel’s three middle schools for years, but after voters approved a school safety referendum in 2019 CCS began expanding the program to elementary schools.

CCS has 21 SROs, who are employees of the Carmel Police Dept., assigned to its 15 school campuses.

“That’s bigger than some town’s police departments. They’ve all been training over the summer” CCS Supt. Michael Beresford said.

“We’re really excited, because now in every school we’ll have (at least) one person in the building whose only job is school safety.”

Art provides important lessons Commentary by Amanda Cross

Mayor Jim Brainard recently recognized 21 talented young artists for their winning entries in the Carmel ENVIRONMENT Green Initiative Earth Day art contest in a ceremony held at City Hall.

Carmel Green Initiative again collaborated with schools, congregations, Scout troops and home-school organizations this year to spread the word about the contest and solicit entries. For the competition, kindergarten through 12th-graders learn about environmental stewardship and create postcard-sized artwork with an environmental theme.

“I believe saving energy and protecting the planet are important because we need healthy foods, cleaner air and a world that is green and beautiful,” said Eddie Copsey, fifth-grade winner.

Themes have included “Celebrate Our Earth,” “Save Energy” and “Save Bees and Butterflies,” among others.

This year, CGI received 255 entries from 20 schools and other organizations.

strate and reinforce what they’ve learned about the environment, and it gives them a way to express their own thoughts and ideas about how to care for the planet.

“My artwork is inspired by the movie WALL-E,” said Emma Spahn, second-grade winner. “The humans don’t take care of (the) Earth, and they can’t even live on it anymore. I don’t want that to happen, so I am asking people to do their best to throw away their trash, and I will do the same.”

Entries were on exhibit around Carmel at the Monon Center, at Muldoon’s on Main Street and even featured on the big screen at Midtown Plaza to celebrate Earth Day on April 22.

Angela Wang, third-grade winner, hopes it is motivating.

“When people see my artwork, I want them to notice that when I drew this, I didn’t draw it for any random reason,” she said. “I want everyone to try and help the earth.”

The strong community support for the program demonstrates to the students how important these issues are. Best of all, parents can order postcards featuring their student’s artwork. You can see the winning entries from this year and years past on the Carmel Green Initiative website.

If you know a student or group of students who would like to participate in the art contest next time around, keep an eye on carmelgreen.org/live-and-learn/art-contest. The contest is open to all students in and around Carmel who want to use art to share their love of the earth.

Amanda Cross is a volunteer with the Carmel Green Initiative, a coalition of citizens and community groups who promote and support the City of Carmel’s commitment to reducing the impact on the environment.

Family turns home into annual one-day museum of fossils, skulls

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com

Jen Hutson had a brainstorm after reading a children’s book.

“I wanted my boys to experience the natural world and creation and interact with it,” Hutson said. “I like them to spend a lot of time outside engaging with nature.

We started collecting things we found.”

Four years ago, Hutson and her oldest son, Wade, were reading one of the Boxcar Children’s books.

In the story, four children spend a summer on an island, and they have an idea to make a museum of things they discovered.

“I thought, ‘Why don’t we do that and start a museum?’” Hutson said. “That’s how the idea came on and we just kept expanding.”

Hutson presented what she calls her “3 brothers museum” for the third time in the family’s Carmel home July 31. The one-day museum wasn’t held in 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Wade, now 10, has 5-year-old twin brothers, Ty and Cody. They comprise the three brothers. Wade is starting fourth grade at Coram Deo Academy in Carmel Aug. 11, while the twins will be in kindergarten at Coram Deo. “It’s kind of a joke that I’m wildlife control. People will call and say I found this dead animal,” Hutson said. “I have my work gloves and I sanitize everything.”

Hutson has a collection of bones and skulls. In addition, she has fossils and American Indian artifacts. The one-day museum includes a sensory station for children to touch items.

“I like making nature accessible to people,” she said.

There is a museum gift shop and snack bar. Donations are accepted at the gift shop and are used to purchase more items.

A 1997 Carmel High School graduate, Hutson majored in creative writing at DePauw University and enjoyed the AP Biology class in high school.

“My family and I joke about becoming a park ranger in my next life,” she said.

“Whether I’m doing it informally or formally, I continue to try to educate myself more. My oldest (son) is a prolific question asker.”

Hutson and Wade gave presentations to the museum attendees and took questions from the children. A total of 140 people visited July 31, approximately the same number as last year.

Hutson also has taken items into Coram Deo and given presentations on bones. She has contemplated visiting other schools to share her collection of fossils, skulls and bones.

“I’m passionate about getting kids to experience things they normally wouldn’t,” Hutson said.

Hutson has considered expanding her repertoire by learning taxidermy. She normally doesn’t have an issue while cleaning skulls but said she nearly got sick while preparing a coyote skull.

“It was pretty gross with the smell,” she said.

Hutson said she is convinced kids of the present generation should learn some of the lost arts, such as gardening, canning foods, woodworking or hunting and cleaning an animal.

“I think more kids should be educated on those things and understand the world around them more like older generations did, which is another reason why we do this,” she said.

Hutson said she accepts donations of specimens. For more, email 3brothersmuseum@gmail.com.

POPULAR DESTINATION Wade Hutson said many of the 3 brothers museum visitors are from Coram Deo as the entire school is invited.

“We’re big nature people, so we go on trips, and we get these fossils and bones,” he said. “It’s fun to see people enjoy the stuff we work hard (collecting).”

Wade said his father, Brian, is more interested in the social aspect of welcoming visitors than the museum collection itself. Brian joked that he is in the facility operations.

“The kids can see that it’s possible to be able to do something like this on your own based on what your interests are,” said Carmel resident Todd Pilcher, who has four children. “They learn a lot depending on the different topics. Some things the kids have been more interested in than others, but it’s always informative. The kids look forward to it.”

Sam Lesnet, 10, said the museum was “great.” The Coram Deo student especially enjoyed the skulls.

“I never seen a tree frog in my life, so it was exciting to see,” he said.

ESSAY

HUMOR

Making each word count

Importance of meeting Ernst

Commentary by Terry Anker

How many words does it take? The air is filled with noise. All around us, people are talking. Billboards shout down at us.

Podcasts, televisions, computer screens — each in their own time are demanding our attention. Hundreds of words.

Thousands of words. Millions of words.

We are awash in communication. We cannot excuse ourselves from the excess. It is estimated that we contribute some 30,000 words of our own every week (about 850 million in an average lifetime). To be sure, there is some variability. There are those of us who are sparing with what we say. Then, there are others among us who might dispose of two hours sharing an event that took 10 minutes.

Whatever the style of the speaker, the goal is the same — to communicate. So, it begs the questions: How many words are required? How many are too few or too many? As is popular on the walls of many of our homes, single words appear. They express concepts like eat, family, or love. One could assume that “eat” suggests a place in the domicile where such an activity might occur.

But for “love,” is a single word enough?

What about “love you”? Does it say something different than “I love you”? Is the complete thought communicated?

Saying “I love you because you pay me to do so” is very different from saying “I love you because you bring out the best in me.” Still, if our sonnet becomes epic and drags on for hours, does the simple and elegant point get lost for lack of a dedicated editor? Does the word count seem to count?

Effective statements require more than the right words — they might also require the right number of words. What do we hide behind our verbosity, and the same with unnecessary brevity?

Friends, there are good people in this world. Case in point -- Ernst Brionne. He’s a Delta Airlines agent in New York who single-handedly salvaged an overseas trip for me and my youngest.

Enjoy.

Our adventure began easily enough.

We flew from Indy to JFK, no problem, and then boarded our overnight flight.

Unfortunately, a series of delays, including a broken seat, a malfunctioning navigation system, and then noxious fumes from a burning air-conditioning unit, led to three hours on the tarmac and the eventual rescheduling for the following afternoon. Not ideal, but we rolled with it and used the next morning to explore Queens and the aptly named Flushing Meadows Park.

But as we were packing to go back to the airport, my daughter couldn’t locate her passport, and neither could I. Panic and tears ensued as we quickly realized it had probably been left on the original plane. This was at noon; our international flight left at 4 p.m.

Once at JFK, we were told multiple times, “There’s nothing we can do.” Until we met Ernst. He immediately offered to personally locate and search the old plane. For 90 excruciatingly long minutes, we waited for Ernst. Other travelers came and went, a toddler threw up on my shoe, and we reconciled the fact that we’d most likely be heading home.

When Ernst eventually returned, shaking his head in a “no luck” manner, we were crushed.

But Ernst is a jokester. He’d found it!

Here was a man who’d abandoned his post and walked more than 2 miles for absolute strangers to help in a moment of crisis.

There are good people in this world.

Peace out.

You’re only as old as you feel Commentary by Lorene Burkhart When you ask a 95-year-old who is still spry, how old they feel, they may answer that they feel great, conPLAIN TALK sidering their age. After all, they’ve never been 95 before, so they only have yesterday as a comparison. Actually, this is true for everyone.

In a recent article by Troy Brownfield, he explored the idea that everyone is older than they think you are. He says that as you age, you lose sight of where you fit into the scale of the people around you. He names the seven generations, beginning with the Greatest Generation, born 1901-1927, to Generation Alpha, born 2010 to the present.

Many of us have family members who are scattered throughout the generations.

We have different expectations from the youngest than we do from the millennials, born 1981-1996. And we have few expectations, other than problems, from the Silent Generation, 1928-45, knowing that the aging process takes its toll.

Many of us in my age group, born in 1934, have children who are baby boomers, born

1946-64. The 2020 census shows that baby boomers are now the largest segment of the population. The author uses a “Psychology Today” report that says events remembered in isolation, such as a specific birthday, will seem closer than memories that we recall in batches. Try it by recalling a specific event and recall how many times you have said, “It only seems like yesterday.”

A few years ago, I met Chuck Underwood, author of “The Generational Imperative,” and he was speaking about the need to understand the differences in generations to be able to serve them in advertising and promoting products. Think about that when you watch commercials. It isn’t difficult to recognize the age groups that are being targeted.

Don’t worry about how old you feel. It changes frequently. Remember, you’re only as old as you feel.

Cancer survivor: ‘Be proactive about your health’

By Chris Bavender news@currentinfcarmel.com John Trimble, 66, always paid attention to his health by scheduling regular annual physicals. After coughing for a period of months, he was treated for an MEDICINE adult onset of asthma. Then the extreme fatigue and shortness of breath set in.

“The medications and treatments had been helping with the coughing,” the Fishers resident said. “When I reported the fatigue and shortness of breath to my pulmonologist, he became concerned that I might be having heart problems, and he suggested that my primary care doctor refer me to a cardiologist.

“At that point, I believed that my asthma was simply worsening because it was very hot, and the heat and humidity seemed to make things worse.”

But a CT scan revealed something much worse — lung cancer and heart failure.

“It was nothing short of a gut punch,” said Trimble, an attorney. “There was no family history of cancer and I have always been active and reasonably fit, so heart disease made no sense to me whatsoever. I later learned that the cancer had placed stress on my heart and that is what precipitated the A-fib (atrial fibrillation).”

Trimble’s cardiologist, Dr. Ali Iqtidar, IU Health Saxony Hospital, said it’s uncommon to have A-fib and cancer at the initial presentation.

“However, we are increasingly recognizing the interplay between heart failure and cancer,” Iqtidar said. “Some of the risk factors can predispose a patient to both conditions.

In addition, patients who have cancer have increased inflammation and a tendency to blood clotting, which can increase the risk of heart attacks and heart failure. Consequently, certain cancers increase the risk of dying from cardiovascular disease several fold.”

Trimble’s initial treatment was focused on getting his heart slowed and back in rhythm. He spent 13 days in the hospital.

“Unfortunately, because of my cancer, I was not immedi-

ately a candidate for an electric cardioversion. I eventually went home on medication and then turned attention to the cancer,” Trimble said. “Dr. Nasser Hanna at the IU Health Simon Cancer Center had genetic testing done of my cancer, and when that was completed, we discovered that there was a new medication from Eli Lilly called Retevmo that was a perfect match for my cancer on it.”

Within 10 days of starting the medicine, he was off supplemental oxygen, and within 60 days, his cancer was 90 percent receding.

“In my initial cancer screenings, they had determined that the cancer had spread to my brain and that I had five small spots that were detectable on MRI, so I underwent a Gamma Knife procedure at IU Health Methodist Hospital in which small doses of radiation were placed by laser on the spots,” he said. “That procedure was successful, and the cancer has not returned to the brain. As of now, I have a small amount of remaining cancer in my lungs, but the Retevmo has kept it isolated, and it is receding.”

Trimble’s message to other men is to “be proactive about your health.”

“Don’t let problems sneak up on you simply because you are afraid to receive bad news or afraid that you will be told to change your diet or take medications for cholesterol or blood pressure,” Trimble said.

Iqtidar agrees.

“Don’t put off taking care of yourself,” he said. “Especially if that ‘off’ feeling persists without a clear explanation.”

Addressing pediatric foot and ankle pain Commentary by Dr. David Sullivan Pediatric foot and ankle pain isn’t a normal part of growing up. Although it can be common for kids to experience discomfort, we can PODIATRY relieve their pain and prevent complications as they grow. Today, we’ll review some of the most common causes of painful childhood foot conditions.

Growing pains If your child experiences foot pain once or twice every few months, there’s no need to be concerned.

But if the pain is chronic, it’s worth an office visit.

Typically, we can minimize pain related to growth with ice or heat, along with massage and even light exercise.

Sever’s disease If your tween experiences heel pain, it could be Sever’s disease. This is an inflammation in your child’s growth plate at the back of his or her heel.

Treatment usually includes taking a break from strenuous activities for several months, allowing the bone to heal. To manage pain, we may introduce stretching routines and/or anti-inflammatory medications and orthotics.

arch. If your school-age child still has no arch, intervention is necessary to prevent chronic foot pain and other complications. Adding arch support to your child’s shoes can help. In rare cases, surgery may be necessary.

Ingrown toenails Ill-fitting shoes can push against the nail, causing it to turn inward. Plus, adults often trim nails too close to the nail bed, or in a curved shape. You’ll notice an ingrown nail if the skin around the nail bed appears red, swollen or shows pus. The best way to treat an ingrown nail is in the office. Fixing at home will only cause more pain and could lead to worse infections.

Shoe choices Some conditions or body mechanics hurt your child’s feet. But often the real cause of their pain is wearing the wrong footwear. Children are active and need supportive shoes. Not sure what kind of shoes your child needs? Contact our office today to discuss the best type of footwear for your child’s feet.

DISPATCHES Medical center tops ranking — For the 25th consecutive year, Indiana University Health Medical Center has been ranked among the nation’s top adult hospitals in U.S. News & World Report’s 2022-23 list of “Best Hospitals.” IU Health Medical Center remains the No. 1-ranked hospital in Indiana and Indianapolis and the only nationally ranked adult hospital in the state. U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 medical centers nationwide.

Hospice volunteers needed — Anew Hospice is seeking volunteers to spend time with hospice patients throughout the Indianapolis area. Volunteers visit hospice patients to provide companionship through music, reading, doing puzzles, life review or just being a hand to hold. To learn more, call 317-300-2292 or email ashtondriscoll@anewhosp.com.

Dangers of juicing — Making your own juice from fresh fruits and veggies can be a healthy choice for many people. There is a risk, however, of getting an overdose of sugar. Removing the juice (and sugar) from the fiber of the fruit makes the sugar content more concentrated. A good rule of thumb is to use a rotating variety of greens as the base of your juice with only one serving of fruit.

Angela Constable’s goal is to continue to spread the word about her online business of hair care ENTREPRENUER products.

The Westfield resident, who recently received her minority Ryan H. Cassman Emerson Jenna M. Bailey women’s smallAlexbusiness certificate, started Majesty Hair Care in 2009. Her first product was the Majesty Radiant Shine Therapy spray.

“I work with a chemist. I tell him what I want my products to do,” Constable said. “I use the products and then we tweak it and send it back and say we need to do this and this, so we collaborate together to create Majesty Hair Care products. What is significant to my line of products is noni berry abstract, which is my key ingredient. It’s a powerful preservative, so it helps the hair and skin in many different ways, but especially with the abuse we do to our hair.”

Constable, who has a private salon in Indianapolis, said the business decided to expand the line in recent years, developing more products in 2019. During the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown in 2020, Constable said she had more time to work on her online business.

Her other three products are a moisturizing shampoo, a moisturizing conditioner and a noni miracle mist.

“The products are mainly for hydration, moisturizing and they are for many different hair types, whether it’s natural hair, curly or straight hair,” Constable said. “Men and women can use the products.”

All her social media platforms are labeled as Majesty Hair Care. Her daughter, Keyera Constable, a Fishers resident, manages the

social media and marketing content for Majesty Hair Care. Keyera’s video and social media company is called K.E.Y.E Creatives.

Fishers-based Swallow Consulting Services provides business advice.

Constable said during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, she began offering free personalized consultations virtually for people who could not meet in person.

“That helps me spread the understanding about hair care and I do a monthly newsletter for hair consultation,” she said.

Constable plans to offer discounted specials on her products during Black Business Month in August.

Canine Cloud Nine moving to City Center

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Canine Cloud Nine has outgrown its space in the Carmel Arts & Design District.

“We’re busting at the GROWTH seams,” said Amber Hosford, who co-owns the cage-free grooming salon and boutique. “We’re excited to have more room for everybody. We’re a little cramped right now.”

Canine Cloud Nine is moving from 110 W. Main St., Suite 120, to 850 Monon Green Blvd. in City Center.

“The dogs mingle with us in our grooming facility instead of being stuck in a cage all day long,” Hosford said.

Hosford said the salon will increase from 1,200 square feet to 4,300 square feet in the new space. Hosford said she hopes the salon will be completely moved into the new space by mid-September. A grand-opening date will be announced later.

There will be space for dog day care during the day.

Hosford and co-owner Heather Bauer, both Lawrence Township residents, bought the business seven years ago from a previous owner.

“It was there about three years before we

Indy soprano star’s appearance in ‘Tosca’ highlights Indy Opera season schedule

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Indianapolis Opera General Director David Starkey didn’t take long to pinpoint what he most looks forward to MUSIC about the organization’s 202223 schedule.

“The highlight will be Angela Brown singing her first ‘Tosca’ in her hometown,” Starkey said. “She has sung Aida and Porgy and Bess, but never ‘Tosca.’ While this will not be her last, it will be her only ‘Tosca’ for Indy and yet she brings her worldclass experience to the opera stage as one of the best modern-day Toscas ever. She will feature the famous aria in the ‘Opera In the Park’ concert.”

The fifth annual “Opera in the Park” opens the 48th season schedule at 7 p.m.

Sept. 10 at McAllister Amphitheater at Garfield Park in Indianapolis.

Giacomo Puccini’s “Tosca” featuring Brown, an Indianapolis-born soprano, is set for Nov. 11-13 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Brown, Indianapolis Opera’s artistic and education ambassador, has performed the title of Floria Tosca several times in other cities, but this will be her first time performing the entire opera in the Indianapolis area.

“I love the music drama,” Brown said of the opera, which is set during the French Revolution. “She goes through so many emotions throughout the whole evening from being jealous to being in love to being upset and angry and then being so upset she kills somebody and then she jumps and kills herself.”

Brown said she remembers seeing Tim Noble perform in an Indianapolis Opera production of “Tosca” when she was a student at Indiana University.

“I always said I would love to do ‘Tosca’ with Tim Noble,” Brown said. “I got a chance to sing a scene with him, but he’s not singing anymore. But at least I got a chance to do it (in Indianapolis).”

At “Opera in the Park,” Brown will be

joined by pianist Joshua A. Thompson, saxophonist Jared Thompson and baritone Daniel Narducci along with the Indianapolis Opera’s resident artists and chorus.

“You always get a little bit of everything,” Brown said. “It’s something for everyone to enjoy. You have musical theater. Jared brings the jazz because he has Premium Blend and Joshua is a classical pianist in his own right. It’s going to be a lot of fun.”

Brown was scheduled to perform as “Aida” in Portland Aug. 7. Before “Tosca,” she will perform in “Charlie Parker’s Yardbird” at the Dayton Opera Oct. 7-9.

The Indianapolis Opera schedule con-

tinues with two performances in 2023.

The Contemporary Workshop Series will feature “Gallantry & More” at 4 p.m. March 25-26 at the Basile Opera Center in Indianapolis. “Gallantry” is a one-act comedic opera. In addition, there will be a world premiere of a new operatic work.

Wolfgang Mozart’s classic “The Magic Flute” is set for May 5-7 at The Toby at Newfields in Indianapolis. The opera features some of Mozart’s most recognizable melodies. It follows the journey of Prince Tamino as he tries to rescue his true love Pamina from the wrath of dark sorcerer Sarastro.

For more, visit indyopera.org.

With series subscriptions still available for the 2022-23 Center Presents Season at the Center for the Performing Arts, tickets for individual 2022 performances went on sale Aug. 5 to the general public.

Presented in partnership with Allied Solutions, the season features more than 50 events, with more to be added.

Tickets will be available online at TheCenterPresents.org, by phone at 317- 843-3800 or through the Fifth Third Box Office at the Palladium, 1 Carter Green, Carmel. Presale access is available.

Henthorn gets festival spotlight

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com This was one offer Doug Henthorn couldn’t refuse.

Henthorn said he was exCONCERT cited to receive an invitation to perform Sept. 3-4 in the two-day All IN Music and Arts Festival at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Henthorn and his band will be one of several acts performing Sept. 3. The exact time and fairgrounds site hasn’t been determined. The headliners for Sept. 3 are Daryl Hall and John Oates and Portugal. The Man. Henthorn, a 55-year-old Westfield resident, said he expects his set will be approximately 60 to 75 minutes. He plans to perform songs from his new record, songs from his other two albums and songs from when he was a member of Healing Sixes.

“There will be a handful of choice cover songs,” he said.

The new album, “Three,” includes seven new songs and three cover songs — The Beatles’ “Across the Universe,” the Eagles’ “Wasted Time” and The Cars’ “Drive.”

album, “Cold Medicine,” in 2016, he had some health issues.

After being diagnosed with parotid (saliva) gland cancer, he had surgery and 33 rounds of radiation.

“That kind of thing will rattle you,” Henthorn said. “Then a year later I had a false positive after a colonoscopy that said I had colon cancer, but the biopsy came back negative. But for a month I was in limbo, so it was a horrible time.”

Henthorn said he wrote most of the songs on “Three” during that time.

reviewed by 85 Hoosiers from around the state specializing in arts, community development and finance.

“The projects and organizations that are receiving funding are improving the economic and educational climates of the state of Indiana,” stated Alberta Barker, chair of the Indiana Arts Commission. “The commission is delighted to support this investment in Hoosier communities. It is a privilege to uplift the impressive creative work being done around the state.”

The ICC will use the funding to continue its mission to provide high-quality music education experiences to children in central Indiana. With programs across Indianapolis, in surrounding counties and in Anderson and Columbus, the ICC’s programming annually reaches more than 2,500 young people.

“Thanks to funding like this grant from IAC, we can continue to bring the ICC experience to more and more children throughout the community,” stated Carmel resident Joshua Pedde, ICC artistic director. “It’s about so much more than just singing.

When these kids come together to form a choir, they make lasting friendships, learn about leadership, grow to appreciate cultural differences and gain other lifelong skills.”

Miah Michaelsen, executive director of the Indiana Arts Commission, said art and creativity strengthen the fabric of Indiana’s communities.

“They promote connection and cohesion, foster the entrepreneurial spirit communities need to thrive and create the kinds of communities where people want to live,” Michaelsen stated. “In each of Indiana’s 92 counties, public funding for arts and creativity continually proves to be a high-return investment that improves the quality of life of every Hoosier and drives economic development within our state.”

Blueprint for Improvement: Exterior upgrade on Geist Reservoir Commentary by Larry Greene Built in 1988 on Geist Reservoir, this home’s owners were looking to update the exterior and increase the waterfront backyard’s aesthetic appeal and entertaining space.

After

THE BLUEPRINT • A covered deck made from Ipe, a Brazilian hardwood that naturally repels insects and resists decay, replaced a gravel patio. Retractable screens hidden in the deck’s columns provide protection from the elements at the press of a button.

• The upper deck was reconfigured with clean lines for a modern appeal. Trex composite decking and a water mitigation system ensure durability with minimal maintenance.

• A pool house and Smart Pergola with an outdoor kitchen and fireplace were added to increase entertaining space. The Smart Pergola is equipped with louvres that can be angled to direct the breeze or closed to deflect rain for all-season outdoor enjoyment.

• The stonework around the pool was replaced with a sand matrix concrete that stays cool in the sun, is nonslip and comfortable underfoot.

• The brickwork on the façade was repaired and painted.

Keep ants out of the house — Where you see one ant, you’re bound to see others. That’s because ants leave a scented trail that other ants follow. To eliminate the scent trail, mix one part vinegar with three parts water in a spray bottle, and then spray wherever you’ve seen ants in the past. 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.

Organic food myths — Organic food isn’t free of pesticides, and it isn’t necessarily better for you. Organic farmers are permitted to use chemicals that are naturally derived — and in some cases are worse for the environment than synthetic chemicals. Eating organic food also doesn’t come with any nutritional benefits over non-organic food, according to a review of 98,727 potentially relevant studies.

Some more semordnilaps Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Virginia Memorial at Gettysburg National Military Park. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Visiting Gettysburg National Military Park Commentary by Don Knebel Continuing our road trip, today we visit Gettysburg, the site of the turning point of the American Civil War. TRAVEL

By June 1863, the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, led by General Robert E. Lee, had achieved significant victories against Union forces in the South. To take the fight to the North, Lee ordered his troops into Pennsylvania.

President Lincoln responded by ordering the Union Army of the Potomac to stay between the Confederate ranks and Washington, D.C. On the morning of July 1, 1863, a contingent of soldiers from each army unexpectedly converged on Gettysburg, a college town in southern Pennsylvania. After shooting broke out, commanders on both sides ordered their forces into and around Gettysburg, where massive battles ensued. The fighting ended with Lee’s retreat on July 4. The day before, an open-field assault by 12,500 Confederate soldiers against Union forces assembled atop Cemetery Ridge (“Pickett’s Charge”) had failed, with disastrous casualties. By then, 93,921 Union soldiers and 71,699 Confederate soldiers had engaged in the battles, with almost a third of them killed, wounded, captured or missing.

In 1895, Congress established Gettysburg National Military Park. Today, the park contains almost 5,000 acres. Forty miles of scenic roads lead to famous battle sites, such as Little Round Top and Seminary Ridge.

Hundreds of cannons mark artillery positions during the battles. The park includes restored buildings that figured into the fighting. Hundreds of monuments and me-

morials honor groups of Gettysburg combatants near the places where they fought. The most impressive monument is the Eternal Light Peace Memorial, dedicated at a ceremony in 1938 on the 75th anniversary of the battle that was attended by 1,845 veterans from both sides, averaging 94 years of age.

The Visitor Center orients guests to various battle locations and features a cyclorama (more about that and the Gettysburg Address coming soon).

We all know examples of palindromes: taco cat, racecar, kayak, Hannah. A palindrome is a word that, when spelled backward, is the same GRAMMAR GUY word. Today, however, I want to delve into the bizarro world of the semordnilap.

While palindromes have this beautiful letter symmetry to them, a semordnilap is actually the word “palindromes” spelled backward. That’s because a semordnilap is a word that, when spelled backward, becomes a different word altogether.

As far as we know, the term “semordnilap” comes from C.C. Bombaugh’s 1961 book “Oddities and Curiosities of Words and Literature.”

By definition, the word “semordnilap” is itself a semordnilap, as it is the word “palindromes” spelled backward. I told you this was going to be nerdy!

Here are a few examples of semordnilaps that form real words. Our baby is 3 months old, so we’re back in the world of diapers. The word “diaper” is a semordnilap, as spelling it backward yields “repaid.” When I’m “stressed,” I eat “desserts.” See what I did there?

Just for fun, try to find the semordnilaps in the following sentences: No one knew what to call the gateman, as he wore no nametag.

Do cats swap paws?

Former Pacer Reggie Miller gave a recap of the basketball game.

I’ve found some notable semordnilaps whose words were coined by reversing real names or words. The most recognizable example belongs to Oprah, whose

Variance for a pergola to extend in front of building: Pergola is not allowed to be erected “forward of any principle building or in the required minimum front yard,” according to Section 5.02(B)(1)(a)(ii) of the UDO.

“Harpo” Studios is a production company that spells “Oprah” backward. For the Disney fans out there: Did you know that the name of the sorcerer in “Fantasia” is named Yensid? The name was derived by reversing the letters of “Disney.” Now, that’s some word wizardry!
