Suspects arrested for vandalizing Carmel synagogue

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Two people have been arrested for spraypainting anti-Semitic symbols at a Carmel synagogue.

Nolan Brewer, 20, of Cloverdale UPDATE was charged Aug. 16 in federal court with conspiracy to violate civil rights, which has a maximum sentence of 10 years if convicted.

Investigators said the Carmel Police Dept. arrested another suspect but declined to provide identifying information or additional details.

Officials at Congregation Shaarey Tefilla on W. 116th Street discovered the vandalism, which included two Nazi flags and iron crosses, July 28 on a brick dumpster enclosure. It also appeared that small fires had been set nearby.

According to court documents, Brewer told investigators that his motivation for the vandalism at the synagogue was because it was “full of ethnic Jews.” It also states he told them that he and his co-conspirator were trying to convey to the Jewish people to “back down or something like that.”

“The statements he made made it clear that his intention was not to be a prank,” U.S. Attorney Josh Minkler said at an Aug. 16 press conference. “His intention clearly was serious, and that was to impact people and their right to worship in the place they choose in the way they choose. He was going to commit a certain crime to send that message.”

Investigators received a tip July 30 that linked Brewer to the vandalism. They obtained video footage from Walmart in Greencastle that appears to show Brewer — who looked to be wearing a German military style camouflage jacket — and another individual purchasing black and red spray paint.

Carmel Police Dept. Chief Jim Barlow speaks at an Aug. 16 press conference announcing the arrest of Nolan Brewer. (Photo by Ann Marie Shambaugh)

When law enforcement apprehended Brewer Aug. 15, he was wearing a jacket that appeared to match the one in the video and had black and red spray paint in the trunk of his car.

Investigators also found items that could be used to cause a small explosion, the affidavit states.

Minkler said it’s not clear why Nolan chose the Carmel synagogue as his specific target.

Congregation Shaarey Tefilla Rabbi Benjamin Sendrow said the local Jewish community continues to be encouraged by the support it has received since the vandalism occurred.

“I can’t articulate how much that meant to us as a community,” he said. “It made this act a complete failure, because (the vandals) tried to evoke hatred and fear and what they produced was an outpouring of love and support and solidarity. They utterly failed.”

CPD and the FBI are continuing to work together to investigate the incident. Brewer is in the custody of the U.S. Marshal Service and has a detention hearing set for 3 p.m. Aug. 21.

CRC OKs funds for mural — again

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Carmel Redevelopment Commission on Aug. 15 approved spending $34,525 for the painting of a DEVELOPMENT mural on the south façade of the Midtown north parking garage.

The mural will depict several nearby landmarks and match the area’s color scheme.

It was designed by Lucie Rice of Nashville, Tenn., at a cost of $7,500 and will be painted by Indianapolis-based Olson Paint Studios, with work expected to begin in mid-September and finish before November.

This is the second time the CRC approved funding for the mural. At their February meeting, commissioners voted to approve $18,000 for M&E Enterprises to design and paint the mural. M&E, owned by Carmel High School art teacher Michael Lee, completed a popular mural on the west façade of the Carmel Old Town Antique Mall in 2007.

However, the CRC decided to change course as the project progressed.

“After we realized how intricate the

Carmel Libertarian aims to become secretary of state

By Desiree Williams news@currentincarmel.com

Through his campaign for Indiana secretary of state, Carmel resident Mark Rutherford is advocating for small POLITICS business owners, protecting individual rights and creating equal representation of political parties in elections.

Rutherford became the Libertarian Party nominee for secretary of state at the party’s convention in Rutherford May. He said his experience as a lawyer, business owner, former chairman of the state Libertarian Party, former vice chairman of the Libertarian National Committee and current role as chairman of the Indiana Public Defender Commission have prepared him to serve in goverment.

“I’ve got a good idea of how to work with people in government, so I’ve got an excellent background for running and for being secretary of state, so I seem like an appropriate candidate to run,” he said.

Rutherford is a 1978 graduate of Carmel High School and a 1986 graduate of the Valparaiso University School of Law. Shortly after graduating, he co-founded a law firm in Indianapolis. He specializes in business law and white collar criminal defense.

Because of his parents’ involvement in politics while he was growing up, Ruther-

CAMPAIGN PLATFORMS Support small business: Rutherford wants to help small businesses flourish and make it easier for owners to file forms without hiring a lawyer. “I will approach it from what is necessary, and how can we make it as easy and simple as possible.”

Simplify election law: He said the rules and statutes are confusing and make it too difficult for candidates from smaller parties to run. “That’s no way to get the best people to want to run for office.

It’s a way to keep incumbents in office, and I would use my position to try to get those changed.”

Eliminate gerrymandering: “Districts should be designed so that it’s the citizens choosing the politicians and the candidates, not the politicians and the candidates choosing the voters.”

Increase voter security: “To me, one of the No. 1 things (the government) can do is have a process that is reliable, considered trustworthy by the voters and the voters have confidence (in) selecting their representatives. If you don’t have that, you have a major, major problem.” ford said running for office seemed like a natural fit. He began his career as a deputy prosecutor with the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office and then moved to a civil law firm before opening his own practice.

Carmel teen earns gold at international chemistry event

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

The International Chemistry Olympiad competition proved to be a golden experience for Carmel resident ACHIEVEMENT Andrew Wu. The Park Tudor High School senior was selected after the Chemistry Olympiad Study Camp June 10-25 at the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.

“The International Chemistry Olympiad was really an awesome experience because it’s unlike the study camp, which is hardcore studying,” Wu said. “At the International Olympiad, there are a lot of cultural excursions.

We learn things about the country. In Slovakia, we visited mining towns. The international event focus is meeting other people who like chemistry. The Olympiad is about bringing people together, not really about competing.”

The 50th international competition was held last month in Bratislava, Slovakia, and Prague, Czech Republic.

Wu placed 12th in the competition, earning a gold medal. The other three members of the

United States squad earned gold medals as well.

The team is sponsored by the American Chemical Society.

“I think we were all strong individually, but the fact that we were all aiming for the same goal also really helped us to succeed,” Wu said.

The competition is open to high school students, including 2018 graduates.

Wu attended the study camp for the second consecutive year.

Wu “The selection process is stressful because there are 20 of us, and only four of us can make it,” Wu said. “I was more stressed this year having to work a lot harder and felt more pressure. Overall, the experience at the Air Force Academy is amazing.”

In addition to chemistry, Wu enjoys computer science, math and biology.

Two other Carmel residents, Park Tudor junior Jenny Cai and Carmel High School junior Iris Yan, attended the 20-member study camp. The local trio emerged from a series of exams taken by nearly 17,000 students.

Authors to visit Carmel

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com Carmel Clay Public Library will host two authors this month as part of its Visiting Author Series.

Karin Slaughter will preview her BOOKS new book, “Pieces of Her,” at 1:30 p.m. Aug. 26.

“Karin is a New York Times Bestselling-author,” said Liz Hamilton, CCPL Foundation director. “Her genre is mystery. She’s been to Carmel a number of years ago. She has a new book just debuting, Slaughter Rhoades and she really wanted Carmel to be one of her stops promoting that new book.”

Slaughter has three books in development for film and television.

“She has a pretty big following, and our community really embraced her,” Hamilton said. “We’re already anticipating a huge crowd for her.”

CCPL will take its Visiting Author Series on the road Aug. 28. Dr. Rod Rhoades will discuss his book, “Aging Well,” at 3 p.m. at Carmel Senior Living, 13390 N. Illinois St. “This is the first time we’ve tried anything like this,” Hamilton said. “We’re really excited to try this off site. I thought what a great way for the library to be out in the community making an impact and making a difference. We’re excited to take one of our visiting authors to a different locale that has a built-in audience that can really benefit from what he has to say.”

Rhoades is a retired doctor and wanted to write a book sharing what he has learned on aging.

“He decided to write this book on aging well after all of his years of being a physician,” Hamilton said. “(The book) gives you tips about things you should be thinking about and how you should use your body as you age.”

For CHS teacher, skateboarding is more than a pastime Carmel High School teacher Tim Devlin pauses on the skatepark at his Broad Ripple home. (Photo by Sara Baldwin Schatz)

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Skateboarding is more than just a passion for Carmel High School teacher Tim Devlin.

It’s been a second job and his way of helping others.

“I started skateboarding when I was 10, and I haven’t stopped,” said Devlin, a 2003 CHS graduate who teaches engineering and construction classes at his alma mater.

Devlin, 33, said he tried other activities when he was younger.

“Nothing else stuck. Skateboarding was always a thing all my friends did, and I made friends because of it,” he said. “It’s what got me through a lot of tough parts of being a kid and growing up. It’s been one consistent thing through my whole life.

Skateboarding for me was all consuming.

For some years, it was all I thought about.”

Approximately 12 years ago, Devlin visited Bart Smith’s concrete bowl skatepark near Bloomington.

“There are two kinds of skateboarding, street skateboarding and transition skateboarding (in a bowl-shaped skatepark),” said Devlin, who has a small skatepark in the

backyard of his Broad Ripple home. “I was always a street skateboarder when I was younger. That’s when you jump down the steps and handrails and everything. Then I found this place and I was, ‘Man, they build this.’ I’ve always had an engineering, mechanical mind. I just wanted to know how to do it. Every chance I could, I got my hands dirty, digging in the concrete, building walls, whatever. It just escalated from there.”

“If you watch a skateboarder trying to land a trick, it doesn’t just happen. They get punished.

They fall, they scrape their arms up. They know what it takes to get something done.”

-Tim Devlin

So for several years, Devlin has had a part-time job with Hunger Skateparks, a design and construction company.

“We work as a team to design new skateparks,” Devlin said.

Christy Wiesenhahn, who co-owns Hunger Skateparks with Smith, said Devlin’s expertise is invaluable.

“Tim’s knowledge of engineering helps

Tim Devlin and his students want to help the Monon Community Center transform its skatepark.

“The bowl got built by someone who doesn’t understand skateboarding, and it’s almost un-skateable,” Devlin said. “It’s this big chunk of concrete sitting right next to the Monon Center that if it was built correctly would be used a lot, but it’s not.”

So, Devlin said several Carmel High School students made a design for a new bowl.

“We actually made a model of what we want to build and had

to create visualizations, using engineering software, that envision new possibilities in old or unused spaces,” Wiesenhahn said.

“This has been a great asset to his work as a designer and advocate because he can create renderings and then make quick changes based on community input. It allows for collaborative and creative interaction between designer and users.”

Devlin is an active member of Indy Skatepark Advocates.

“The major problem with skateparks and the reason we started our group is because people think they can build skateparks and they can’t,” Devlin said. “Skateparks have to be built by a skatepark company. We wanted to make sure when a city is going to be spending money on a skatepark, (the city) is getting what the skatepark users want.”

That’s where the idea for the advocacy group started, he said.

“It’s evolved into let’s make sure there are skateparks in every neighborhood for people to use,” Devlin said. “It’s such a powerful tool where mentorship just kind of happens naturally.”

Devlin said he talks to younger skateboarders to inspire them.

“They see this guy’s a skateboarder and he’s a teacher and doing all this other stuff,” Devlin said. “They think, ‘I guess I

an estimate of what it would cost,” Devlin said. “We gave an estimate to the Monon Center about how we could renovate the bowl. Right now, they’re in the process of taking our ideas and pushing it forward.”

Raising funds to do it is an issue, Devlin said. But skateboarders are undaunted by challenges.

“If you watch a skateboarder trying to land a trick, it doesn’t just happen,” he said. “They get punished. They fall, they scrape their arms up. They know what it takes to get something done.”

Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation Chief Operating Officer Michael Klitzing said he’s discussed the potential upgrades with Devlin and they will be considered as CCPR develops its Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

• Personal: Devlin went to Purdue to study engineering for one year. He decided to switch to IUPUI for video production, graduating with a degree in digital storytelling. After taking time off to build skateparks, he got a master’s degree and certification for education in technology. He taught eighth grade in Wayne Township in Indianapolis for three years. He is starting his third year at CHS. Devlin and his wife, Alyssa, have a daughter, Zephryn, 7.

can have a career. I don’t have to be a punk, vandal kid.’”

Devlin said the group wanted to refurbish a skatepark near the Major Taylor Velodrome in Indianapolis in 2015.

“That was the birth of the new Skatepark Advocates,” Devlin said. “We added a few features and completely painted the skatepark. It was covered in profane graffiti.

Since then, this incredible community has formed around the skatepark. I’ll show up and there are kids picking up trash. People watch out for each other.”

Wiesenhahn admires the work Devlin does with the Indy Skatepark Advocates.

“His skatepark advocacy builds relationships between diverse neighborhoods and people that work together to realize a large public project (can) bring renewed pride to a place and in turn strengthen the overall community bonds,” she said.

Pardon my diva moment

O B S E R V AT I O N Selfless sacrifice Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Like any college student, Josh Bleill was imagining how his life as an adult might play out ... well, that and no doubt having a bit of fun along the way. All progressed nicely, and college led to a good corporate job. Sometimes, life goes just like it is supposed to go. Still, the attack on the twin towers of New York’s World Trade Center had an unsettling and profound effect on the young executive — so much so that within two years the then-27-year-old quit his job and enlisted in the United States Marines. Not long after, he found himself in Fallujah, Iraq.

A vehicle transporting Josh was destroyed by an improvised explosive device. Days later, he awoke to learn of the fate of his two fellow passengers – both friends and comrades, including Indiana native Sgt. Brock Babb. They did not survive the attack. The caring medical staff also had the burden to help young Josh come to understand that he’d lost both of his legs as well.

Years later, Josh has distinguished himself as an author and public speaker.

Recently, he addressed an audience assembled for the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation. The organization helps the kids of Marines “with particular attention given to children whose parent has been killed or wounded in action.” Josh recalled to the audience the deep sacrifice made by so many in service to our nation. Each day, he said, he was reminded that he was blessed.

On Sept. 13 at Pebble Brook Golf Club, the Scholarship Fund holds its annual tournament and fundraiser and online auction. This year’s event honors Brock.

I might have a problem. I got into an argument with one of my sisters over whether her daughter could sing a solo in a family skit I had written. Basically, HUMOR I lost my fashizite because I didn’t want to share the spotlight with a 9-year old!

And it’s not like we were performing on national television! It was for our parents’ 50th wedding anniversary party, where the audience would be entirely made up of family and the elderly. Literally, half the crowd wouldn’t even be able to hear what we were saying. But as a closet actress who has limited opportunities to showcase her subpar voice, I live for moments like this one. I wrote the lyrics, I had an artistic vision in mind — and having a cutie-patootie starlet cutting in would completely ruin the magic I’d spent hours working toward.

See what I mean? I was behaving as if I’ve dedicated my life to the theater — as if this musical homage to the five decades since 1968 were all about me, rather than my parents and their amazing marriage.

I had to get myself under control quickly, or not only would there be some unhappy people, but I’d perhaps damage my relationship with my sister.

Luckily, I retracted my head from my rear in time and acquiesced not only to Little Miss Broadway, but all 13 of the grandkids.

The finale piece, my clever rendition of the “Rent” song “Seasons of Love,” became a chorus line of voices both young and middle-aged, far exceeding my expectations.

Lesson learned? Collaboration with others, even 9-year olds, makes everything better.

Peace out.

READER’S VIEW

Brooks prefers to avoid her constituents Editor, In order to meet our current congresswoman, Susan Brooks, you have to go to one of her poorly publicized pop-up events. Brooks does not greet or speak to the crowd of constituents who have gathered to see her; instead, constituents are led one-by-one to a back room for an incredibly brief meeting. Brooks is known to leave these ‘Connect with Your Congresswoman’ events before she can meet with all the people who showed up and waited to see her.

I attended one of those events. After a whirlwind minute with her, as I was being led away, I asked if she could hold a town hall so the people in her district could hear her views on important issues.

Unguarded and firm, Brooks turned and told me that she was never going to hold a town hall. As evidenced that day and every day she’s spent in office, Brooks prefers avoiding the people who elected her and she feels safe enough to do just that. Her attitude is disheartening and wrong.

Fifth District voters want proper representation. Fifth District voters want to know where their congresswoman stands on the issues. Fifth District voters want to know that their congresswoman is listening to their concerns. Brooks has a record of voting 98.8 percent of the time with our current presidential administration; this voting record is not consistent with the views of her electorate. That’s why a large number of 5th District voters are following Dee Thornton’s congressional campaign. Dee Thornton is running against Susan Brooks because she believes that our district deserves proper representation. As gerrymandered as this district is, Dee Thornton has made this race competitive. I’ve seen so many people throughout Hamilton County who are excited and ready to have a real voice in Washington.

The lines were drawn unfairly, but Brooks’ fate is still uncertain. Everyone’s vote will matter this November.

Mary Ellen and I were relaxing on our deck, and after swatting a few mosquitoes, I said, “We should look into HUMOR screening in this area.”

“Dick, you’ve been saying that every year for the past 25 years. Not only that, but we are moving next week.”

A few minutes later I mentioned how quickly the summer passes after July 4.

“You say that every year around this time,” she responded.

Suddenly, I realized that after 39 years, I didn’t have a single new thought. Uneasy silence followed. Mary Ellen finally spoke.

“When it gets this hot, I think about cutting my hair shorter.”

“Where have I heard that before?” I asked.

We needed a way to jazz up our conversations. Mary Ellen had an idea.

“An article I read recommended that longtime married couples should pretend they are going on a first date, which might lead to a romantic evening.”

So, on Friday afternoon, I asked Mary Ellen to go out that night. She was annoyed that I waited until the last minute, assuming she didn’t already have other plans. I

went outside the house and rang the doorbell, like a real date, but she’s no dummy.

She knew I had simply forgotten my keys.

We drove off.

“What shall we talk about tonight, Dick?”

“How about movies?”

“Great idea. I just saw ‘Mission Impossible.’”

“I saw that, too.”

“I know, Dick. We saw it together.”

“Gone to any good new restaurants lately, Mary Ellen?”

“No, my husband likes to go to the same places all the time.”

“Mary Ellen, you don’t have a husband.

This is a first date. What kind of a jerk goes out with a married woman? Let’s try travel.

Have you ever seen the Pyramids?”

“We went last year. How could you forget?”

We didn’t really hit it off, but we must have connected on some level because despite a dismal first date, we both ended up back at my place.

RIGHT PRODUCT. RIGHT PRICE. RIGHT NOW.

Now is the time for hate crime law Editor, Indiana is shamefully one of just five states without a law expressly outlawing hate crimes.

Sadly, Republicans at the Statehouse have failed to protect Hoosiers. As a member of the Jewish community, as well as the mother of a gay son, I have spent hours at our Statehouse watching as Sen. (Mike) Delph and other Republican legislators continually blocked our attempts to get a hate crimes bill passed.

After anti-Semitic graffiti was plastered across a Carmel synagogue, Gov. Eric Holcomb stepped out of the back room and said it was time for the passage of a hate crimes law. If, as a state, we want to attract the best and the brightest, we have to send a message that they’ll be safe and welcome here.

However, following a recent community solidarity gathering in support of the Jewish community in Carmel, Sen. Delph told a TV reporter that “now is not the time to talk about a hate crimes bill.” So, I am asking Sen. Delph: If now is not the time, when is? What are you waiting for? If you truly care about all of your constituents, you will step up and do the right thing. It’s time to stop dragging your feet.

Donate sheets in September

By Chris Bavender news@currentincarmel.com September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, and a Carmel family is encouraging community memFUNDRAISER bers to do their part to make hospital stays a little more comfortable for kids who spend a lot of time there.

The “I Give a Sheet. What About You?” campaign aims to collect as many new sheets as possible to donate to children’s hospitals at the end of September. The campaign is organized by Carmel resident Ya-el Halevi, co-founder of the nonprofit Sheets from Home.

“September brings in the new school year, and with that lots of excitement for the little ones. Sadly, not all kids can share that feeling. Some have to face a different, tougher reality because they’re fighting cancer,” Halevi said. “The reality is they’re spending a lot of time in hospitals away from the comforts of their home. Sheets From Home launched the ‘I Give a Sheet.

What About You?’ campaign geared toward Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. The plan is to bring that home-like feeling to as many kids as possible all over the world.”

It’s a battle Halevi knows all too well.

She fought melanoma and cervical cancer between 2006 and 2010. Then, in early 2010,

her son, Tamir, was diagnosed with neuroblastoma and spent the next 18 months fighting the disease.

To participate in the campaign, Halevi recommends organizing an event to collect sheets with donors creating personal notes of encouragement to be sent with the sheets. Groups can schedule a drop off with a local hospital.

“We’ve been donating sheets since 2011 and received the official nonprofit charity status in 2015. Since then, we were able to bring smiles to kids from Maine all the way to Florida to the Midwest to Texas and California,” Halevi said. “Some (staff) make it into a big party and let the kids choose from the pile. Others surprise the little ones after a rough procedure with colorful sheets already on their bed.”

Lorenzo and Marina Xochitlatoa have more than 15 years of experience in the food service indusLOREN & MARI try. Throughout their careers, they have worked as bussers, cooks and managers, among other jobs. Natives of Puebla, Mexico, they have opened their own restaurant in Carmel. Loren & Mari Mexican Grill opened Aug. 8 at 2293 East 116th St. “Every single penny and life savings has been put towards making this dream come true,” said Antonio Xochitlatoa, a son of Lorenzo and Marina.

The restaurant, which features a laidback atmosphere and a full bar, will be run by members of the Xochitlatoa family, including Lorenzo and Marina’s seven sons, two daughters and two sons-in-law.

Loren & Mari specializes in Poblano cuisine, which features dishes with a mixture of indigenous Mexican and Spanish influence. The Xochitlatoas are particularly excited for Carmel residents to try the restaurant’s Mole Poblano, a chicken dish featuring a complex sauce made from more than 20 ingredients.

“Mole Poblano is always served as the main dish at family gatherings,” Xochitlatoa said. “Since it was passed down from generation to generation, our family is proud to serve Mole Poblano and want the community to experience the great taste of it.”

In addition to Poblano fare, the restaurant will offer many classic Mexican dishes, from fish tacos to carne asada. Cemitas, a

kind of sandwich regularly served in Puebla, will also be featured.

Carmel is a competitive landscape for restaurants, but Antonio Xochitlatoa expects Loren & Mari to stand out.

“We set ourselves apart from others by creating every single dish with fresh ingredients, passion and hard work from every single family member,” Xochitlatoa said. “We are proud to say, ‘We started from the bottom and now we are here.’”

Bach to Rock music school now open

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com A new music school in Carmel aims to teach students in a fun and innovative way. The school is at 2480 E. 146th St. and is owned and directed by Zionsville residents NEW BIZ Andy and Jennifer Flickner.

“The concept of Bach to Rock is to teach music in a way that is really fun,” Andy said. “We want to teach kids music that they love. At the same time we want to teach them music in a somewhat rigorous way.”

The school is open to all ages and has a variety of programs for all age groups. Individual and group lessons are available in piano, voice, guitar, drum, DJ and more.

“We have programs for early childhood, toddlers, pre-schoolers and all the way through adults,” Andy said. “I have some senior citizens we’re teaching already.”

Andrew grew up playing music and even considered a career as a pianist. Ultimately, he pursued engineering, a path he perceived as more stable.

“When my company began restructuring last year, I decided to leave,” he said. “About that time I discovered Bach to Rock.

I fell in love with the concept and the franchise and started to invest and open a school here in Carmel.”

Bach to Rock also offers MyB2R, an online dashboard providing customers real-time access to student progress and more.

“Parents can monitor assignments and understand what their children are supposed to be working on and what they’ve accomplished,” Andy said. “It also features a music player where students can listen to versions of songs to

Randy Sorrell came home to Indiana with a chance to start with a new slate.

“I turned my passion ANNIVERSARY into my profession,” Sorrell said.

So Sorrell, 59, created what has become Surroundings By Natureworks+. The Carmel interior and exterior design business, owned by Sorrell and his wife, Kimberly, will celebrate its 25th anniversary with a public open house from 4 to 7 p.m. Aug. 23 at the Indiana Design Center store, 200 S. Range Line Rd., Suite 120-A. Sorrell, who previously lived in Dallas, started his own employee benefits firm and sold it to a national company a few years later.

“We had our first child (Shelby), and a switch went off that we have to get home to the families,” said Sorrell, who also has another daughter, Sydney.

Sorrell is from Anderson and Kimberly is from Carmel.

The business began in Sorrell’s Carmel basement.

“It kept growing and growing, and we got incredibly fortunate we landed in the No. 1 city in the nation with the kind of demographic who loves outdoor living spaces,” Sorrell said.

Seven years ago, Sorrell began a co-op.

“I took my best employees and spun them

Sorrell said the store’s longevity and success “is driven by the incredible talent we have been able to surround ourselves with and the generous Carmel community. Throw in a good business plan, wonderful supportive clients who embrace thoughtful design and a ton of perseverance.”

Sorrell said he is proud they have used that success to give back.

“The community and nonprofit involvement is part of our personal fabric and mission,” said Sorrell, who serves as chairman of the board of Fletcher Place Community Center.

Revving up for Artomobilia in Carmel

By Rick Morwick • rick@youarecurrent.com Carmel Artomobilia always has been a high-octane event for automotive connoisseurs. Now, its shifting into high gear to benefit another group — CAR SHOW gravely ill children.

A showcase of nearly 400 collector and enthusiast cars on the streets of the Carmel Arts & Design District, the Aug. 25 IU Health North Artomobilia is expected to draw up to 20,000 visitors from Hamilton County and the greater Indianapolis area.

Launched in 2008, the 11th annual Artomobilia will feature a dazzling array of classic cars, sports cars, muscle cars, exotic cars and supercars — of all makes and models — in 20 judged classes and 15 corrals.

“That’s the beauty of the event,” Artomobilia Coordinator John Leonard said.

“Most events are focused on a specific make or model. Artomobilia is the most eclectic automotive event in the Midwest and offers both breadth and depth of automotive interests.”

Free and open to the public, Artomobilia is the namesake attraction of the broader Artomobilia Weekend, which begins Aug. 24 with the fourth annual Fuelicious — a private auto and dining event at Lucas Estate — and the inaugural Aug. 26 SHIFT fundraiser, a private driving event to benefit the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund.

A poker run-style car rally, SHIFT is expected to attract approximately 50 drivers — in high-performance cars — for a 180-mile drive through the back roads of southern Indiana. Drivers will stop at designated checkpoints and draw a playing card, which will afford spectators a chance to admire the cars.

“The event will begin at SILO Auto Club & Conservancy in downtown Indianapolis and then wind through a set of handselected roads, picking up a playing card at each stop that favor a spirited driving experience,” Leonard said. “We’ll finish back at SILO Auto Club, where the driver with the best poker hand will win bragging rights for the rest of the year.”

Registration for SHIFT is $500 per car.

All proceeds benefit the Indiana Children’s

Wish Fund, a statewide nonprofit that grants wishes to Hoosier children ages 3 to 18 with life-threatening or terminal illnesses.

“It will feature 50 performance automobiles from the last five decades on the best roads southern Indiana has to offer,” Leonard said. “Because we have such great sponsors during Artomobilia Weekend, 100 percent of the car entry fee for SHIFT will go to support the important work of the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund.”

Although geared toward car enthusiasts, Artomobilia isn’t strictly for gearheads. It literally has something for everyone.

“Each year, we curate a unique collection of collector and enthusiast cars. You might see cars that are impossibly rare,” Leonard said. “Equally important, the event is hosted in the Carmel Arts & Design District, and as such, it provides an unmatched atmosphere that can be enjoyed by guests of all ages.”

It’s something Jorgen joined. It’s a big band. We do a theme every Halloween and New Year’s, and one year we did a Pink Floyd theme (in 2008). Someone contacted us and wanted us to do more, so we’ll do some this summer. We got all the lasers and light shows going on. Wow, what an extravaganza.”

Noblesville is one of four Dark Side stops remaining this year.

“It took a lot of rehearsal and prep to get everything working, but we love doing it,” Abts said.

Since there are two other bands, Abts said he expects there will only be time for the Dark Side set.

Abts is one of the band’s remaining original members, along with Warren Haynes, who was a longtime guitarist for the Allman Brothers.

“It’s been a blast for the last 24 years,” Abts said.

Cash tribute set for Tarkington

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com James Garner first heard the Johnny Cash’s “At Folsom Prison” live album when he was in junior high school CONCERT in the early 1990s.

“It was just so amazing to me,” Garner said. “You heard the inmates, the rawness of the music and even announcements from the prison. It was so different than anything that was on the radio at the time.”

Garner, the lead singer, is bringing his James Garner’s Tribute to Johnny Cash show to Carmel to play a “Folsom at 50” concert at 8 p.m. Sept. 8 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Johnny Cash’s performance at Folsom Prison. Although the concert is focused on that album, Garner said the group plays Cash’s other hits as well.

When Garner was 12, he picked up a tape of Cash’s greatest hits because his dad was going to Cash’s concert.

“I didn’t know who he was because he wasn’t on the radio at that time. It was Garth Brooks, Reba McEntire and Clint

Black,” Garner said.

A couple of years later, he got to meet Cash backstage in Fresno, Calif.

“I just told him I was his biggest fan. I was so nervous my voice was cracking,” Garner said. “We shook hands and he said, ‘Glad to know you.’ It’s something I’ll never forget.”

Garner’s band performs as the Tennessee Three, which was Cash’s band, with lead guitar, bass and drums. Garner, who plays rhythm guitar, said the band has been together for 11 years. He said the show involves a lot of storytelling about Cash’s career.

5280 Bistro

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 5280 Bistro is a food truck that travels around the area. To find it, visit 5280bistro.com What to get: 5280 PB&J Price: $10 Anna’s take: It sells a wide variety of items, frequents Fishers Farmers Market and also can be seen at many beer festivals across the state. MashCraft Brewing Company, 11069 Allisonville Rd., features offerings from 5280 Bistro not offered on the food truck’s menu.

I ordered one of the restaurant’s more popular items, the 5280 PB&J. The PB&J stands for “pork, bacon and jam.” Three to four slabs of pork loin are layered in a toasted pretzel bun. Thick, peppered bacon blankets the pork, and a homemade fig plum jam is smeared on the top bun. It’s a handful of a sandwich, and its flavor notes are sweet and savory. 5280 Bistro’s signature crispy potato chips, fondly referred to as “crack chips,” and a sprig of cilantro

The 5280 PB&J stands for pork, bacon and jam. All ingredients are sandwiched between a pretzel bun and accompanied with seasoned potato chips.

accompany the sandwich, which is stacked high. The generous portion is well worth the $10.

5280 Bistro’s menu changes frequently, but the 5280 PB&J is one of its staples, and for good reason. Prepare to get your hands messy as you dive in, though.

Suggested pairings: Craft beer.

Chef’s take: Chef Joseph Hsu is from Taiwan. He said the main reason he and his wife began the business in a food truck is because the financial risk is much smaller.

Also, the couple found the food truck is wildly popular at craft beer festivals, where Hsu said 5280 Bistro has found its niche.

“We go outside the box and use things to make the food more interesting,” he said.

“Especially coming from the pairing with beer events, the festivals we do, we want to stand out and look different from everybody else.”

Behind bars: Cucumber Gimlet Get it at Ocean Prime, Indianapolis Ingredients: 1.5 oz. Bombay Sapphire gin, 4 to 5 slices of cucumber, 1 oz. fresh lime juice, 1 oz. simple syrup, serpentine cucumber slice for garnish Directions: Fill highball glass with ice. Add cucumber, fresh lime juice and simple syrup to shaker. Muddle with three ice cubes until cucumber is dissolved. Add gin and ice to shaker to fill half way. Shake gently and strain into iced highball serving glass.

Multi-level patios showcase cobblestone grill station. (Submitted photo)

Firing up a hot patio grill as a gathering station Commentary by Randy Sorrell A client boldly declared, “I want my place to be where our kids and their friends want to hang out.” I dig that charge! That is certainly the most OUTDOOR LIVING captivating and frequent request we are charged with.

This Carmel project resoundingly accomplished that. Although the pool in the background didn’t hurt, the adhesive that pulled it together are the multi-level patios, modern fire feature and cobblestone grill station.

Process and rough sketch Initial meetings focus on visioning and developing a relationship which fuels stories about how the space will “feel,” materials and its desired use. A quick on-site rough sketch proved we were heading in the right direction, and a few weeks later a formal design/proposal was produced. A few

design tweaks and the plan was promptly blessed by the Architectural Review Committee. The fun process can be high-energy and spilling with emotion.

Fire/grill station Fire features and grill stations are gathering magnets, comparable to your granite kitchen counter. Even when the fire is not engaged or the grill is empty, it’s a comfortable spot to start a conversation that often spills over to comfy patio furniture. It’s a launching point.

The cultured cobblestone on the grill face and blue stone counter speak well to the home’s formality and lush neighborhood, just as the linear shape of the space offers Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel homeimprovement firm.

Buda Castle in Budapest, Hungary. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Buda Castle and the holy hand Commentary by Don Knebel Probably because of its previous association with the Soviet Union, many American visitors find Budapest unexTRAVEL pectedly beautiful and sophisticated. The Buda Castle is among its most popular destinations.

When Maria Theresa of Austria became ruler of Austria and Hungary in 1740, Castle Hill, along the west bank of the Danube River in Buda, Hungary’s capital, had been the site of palaces for 500 years. To reward her Hungarian subjects for their support of her contested efforts to assume the throne, she erected a new palace atop Castle Hill that became known as Buda Castle. In 1771, Maria Theresa obtained possession of what was reputed to be the long-missing right hand of Stephen, Hungary’s first king. She gave this so-called “Holy Right,” claimed to have miraculous powers, to Hungary, which placed the mummified fist in the chapel of Buda Castle. Having no interest of living in Hungary, Maria Theresa allowed an order of nuns to use Buda Castle but soon decided that her lavish palace was no place

for a nunnery. She evicted the nuns and the palace housed a university. The palace was substantially damaged as it repeatedly changed hands. When Franz Joseph became King of Hungary in 1867, he made Buda Castle his primary residence and began a series of renovations and additions to make the now neoclassical palace the rival of any others in Europe.

In 1873, Buda and Pest, previously joined by the Chain Bridge across the Danube, merged to form Budapest. Today, Buda Castle is home to the Budapest History Museum and Hungary’s National Gallery. Its beautiful grounds and spectacular views make for an ideal walking tour, but anyone hoping to see the Holy Right will be disappointed. The bejewelled relic was removed from Buda Castle in 1944 and now resides across the river in St. Stephen’s Basilica.

DISPATCHES Clean iron skillet — To prevent rust and extend the life of a cast iron skillet, it’s best not to use soap to clean it. Instead, use about a tablespoon of coarse salt to scrub the pan after a meal. The salt breaks up bits of stuck food and residue on the skillet. Then rinse the pan with hot water and dry it. To further protect the skillet, rub a few drops of vegetable oil over the cooking surface.

Power verbs that really mean business Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

We all know that verbs are action words, but some of them are puny, anemic and overused. If you use weak verbs in your presentation, the overseas investors are going to start yawning and looking at their own (probably Swiss) luxury watches, wondering at which Michelin-star restaurant they should dine later tonight.

Let’s take the word “said” as an example.

It’s boring, yet we drop it in by default into our everyday communication. Instead, consider more powerful verbs like yelled, demanded, explained or insisted.

“Walk” is another verb that screams “weak sauce.” No one just “walks” anymore, unless you want to walk straight to the unemployment office. Instead, consider using strut, dart, march, mosey or meander.

See what I mean? Talk about “walking” like a boss, and you’ll soon be the boss. You can

You’ve gone over your expertly tailored business suit with your lithium batterypowered lint roller in GRAMMAR GUY the executive bathroom. You’ve humbly positioned your luxury watch so it peeks just so outside your shirt cuffs (which are crisp and precisely the right length). Now, you’re assuming your power stance at the front of the conference room, getting ready to share your big PowerPoint presentation (or — as it’s known in startup circles — your “slide deck”).

You’re about to deliver a crushing dose of Six Sigma business power to the other suits sitting around the conference table, who flew in for this meeting in their corporate jets. But, to get the seven-figure multinational merger deal done, you’re going to need one NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING more key ingredient: power BEFORE THE CARMEL PLAN COMMISSION verbs.

almost smell the rich mahogany of your boss’s desk, can’t you?

Now, let’s take a look at “look.” No one even gives it a second glance. Instead of look, use a more creative, evocative word like gape, examine, notice, glare or stare.

Finally, let’s talk about “talk.” Talking is for career mid-level managers (at best). Instead, use a stronger verb like spout, reveal, divulge, gab or mumble.

Power verbs will win you friends and influence people, especially executive corporate vice presidents of overseas fiduciary

acquisitions. Using power verbs will knock the designer socks off your potential investors. Replacing boring, vanilla verbs with power verbs will give you an instant air of confidence and success. This tact will win you fans everywhere from the boardroom to the bedroom.
