Around Town

Donatello’s growing, but not outgrowing By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com Donatello’s Italian Restaurant, 9 W. Main St., has always meshed well with the small-town atmosphere of downtown Carmel. It has recently expanded, but that doesn’t mean any charm or appeal has been lost. Quite the opposite, in fact. “(Downtown Carmel) is a great area, and I believe in it,” said Patrick Aasen, chef and proprietor of Donatello’s. “I love it. There’s a sense of community you don’t get elsewhere with the walkability; and the opportunity came up to do something else here.” That something was the addition of a coffee shop, which is now open, and a nearly three-fold expansion. The restaurant, which opened in 2010 and was originally 800 square feet, now occupies an adjacent building and has a square footage of roughly 2,800. Aasen’s son, Adam, expects Donatello’s Coffee Lounge to serve a needed niche. “We’ll open early so you can get that cappuccino on the way to work,” he said. “But we’re also going to be open later so people will be able to have a coffee while they wait for a table, or have one and dessert after their meal.” The renovation maintained Donatello’s intimacy. Now also occupying the space where Pizza King once stood, the restaurant kept its red walls and has two smaller dining rooms as opposed to one large, open area. Another huge upgrade is outdoor seating. “We had a chance to move to the spot on the (southwest) corner (of Main Street. and Range Line Road.),” Patrick said. “But if we had done that, we wouldn’t have had

any outdoor seating. What we have now is much like you’d find in New York City.” The growth also has allowed Donatello’s to add a pizza oven, something it had no room for previously. Adam adds that, “Food is coming out of the kitchen much more quickly now because (Patrick) has a lot more room to work.” Patrick agrees with that assessment. “We were working on top of each other in the old space,” he said. “I would always joke with Carmel ladies that their shoe closets were bigger than my kitchen. Then they’d look in there and say, ‘Oh, yeah, you’re right!’”

Development

Funds set for Barrington Better Options. Healthier Legs.

By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com Financing has been completed for The Barrington of Carmel, a retirement community to be constructed upon a 19.5-acre campus at Guilford Rd. near 116 Street. Senior Quality Lifestyles Corp. and its affiliate, Mayflower Communities, working in partnership with St. Vincent Health, completed the financing through the sale of $119,020,000 in revenue bonds. The announcement was made by Charles B. Brewer, president and CEO of SQLC. “We are pleased to complete the successful financing of The Barrington and excited to have construction of the new community already underway,” said Brewer. “The Barrington will add to Carmel’s already superb reputation as one of the best places to live in the country. The team supporting The Barrington is one the best in the industry, and I look forward to the day the community opens its doors.” The community will have 134 independentliving apartments, 56 residential-style assisted living apartments, 26 memory-support suites and 48 skilled-nursing beds. The community is scheduled to open in 2013. “The financing of The Barrington speaks highly of the reputation of Senior Quality Lifestyles Corporation and Mayflower within the financial community,” said Rich Scanlon,

A rendering of The Barrington managing director, Ziegler Capital Markets, Senior Living Finance. “The expertise these two organizations bring to this project will ensure The Barrington will provide local seniors with the best quality of life in Carmel.” According to Greystone Communities, an Irving, Tex.-based development partner, the economic impact of the project for the Carmel community will be significant. “The Barrington will support the Carmel economy with a $49,700,000 construction contract,” said Mark Shegon, corporate vice president, development services for Greystone Communities. The level of service that will be provided to residents of The Barrington means an influx of jobs for the Carmel community as well. “A hallmark of all of the SQLC communities is an emphasis on quality and hospitality,” Shegon said. “After The Barrington opens, approximately 200 people will serve the residents and benefit from the Barrington’s operations.”

Donors can double their money in ‘Match 4 More’ eidtorial@youarecurrent.com With just days away from the inaugural Race 4 More in Carmel, a donor has come forward offering matching funds for donations made now through race day – up to $13,000. The race happens on Saturday at Northview Church, 131st St. and Hazel Dell Pkwy., Carmel. Participants will either run or walk, four miles or one as part of this fundraiser aimed at fighting poverty through the efforts of Love at Work Ministries, a local Christian nonprofit. Nicknamed the “Match 4 More,” this matching opportunity means the value of a donation doubles in its power to help some of the neediest people in the world. This year’s goal is to raise $205,000. “The generosity of this donor energizes our efforts to build a new feeding center that will nourish hundreds of hungry kids in the slums of Costa Rica,” says Larry Prible, who co-founded Love at Work with his wife, Carole. The proceeds from the Race 4 More will be used in Alajuelita, San José, Costa Rica to eliminate poverty housing, hunger and hopelessness, to educate underprivileged kids, and raise up future, Godly leaders. “You’ve got to think of these kids like you would your own kids, as having absolutely equal value and potential in the eyes of God,” added Carole. To help Love at Work reach this matching potential, visit www.Race4More.com and donate. Those interested in participating can still sign up online. Registration is 6:45 to 8 a.m. Saturday with the Pee Wee Race (ages 2-9) beginning at 8 a.m. and the four-mile and one-mile races starting at 8:30 a.m. Awards and a celebration will immediately follow the four-mile race.

Goodstock for a good cause

Storage

By Mary Allgier • editorial@youarecurrent.com Michael Shepard is a beloved guitar teacher in Carmel, and now his students are teaming up to help him out. At 6 p.m. on Saturday at the Carmel Gazebo in Civic Square, a group of Shepard’s students and their families are hosting Goodstock – an event to raise money for Shepard’s son, Joshua. Joshua Shepard was electrocuted in a construction accident three years ago in California that has had degenerative effects. “He’s now at the point where it’s affecting his breathing, his speaking,” said Shane Miller, Goodstock coordinator. “He’s starting to lose feeling in his limbs sometimes. In the last month they’ve made three runs to the emergency room because he couldn’t breathe.” Miller said the Shepard family was overwhelmed when they learned about Goodstock. “I really think Josh was to the point where he maybe was feeling like he was a little bit forgotten,” Miller said. “His spirits have just lifted greatly just knowing there’s a whole group of people out there trying to help him.” Goodstock will feature The Wright Brothers Band along with local teen group ZMC Band and some of Shepard’s students. There will also be food and a silent auction. Shane Miller’s son is one of those students. She said called up Shepard’s other pupils and

Joshua and Michael Shephard they, as well as their families, all felt the same way. “It was really put on our hearts to help this family,” Miller said. “The students are really pulling together to make this a reality. One of the students designed artwork, another made a Facebook page.” Miller’s son, Brandon, designed most of the posters and also will be playing at the event. “I respect my guitar teacher and I felt terrible about his son’s situation,” Brandon said. “I think it’s going to be a really fun evening,” Miller said. “You’re going to be able to watch some of the younger, rising musicians in the area, and you know you’re helping someone who desperately needs your help.”

Seeing – again – is believing Commentary by Jeff Worrell Slowly, her world is turning to black. Lost to her are the vivid, crystal clear images she remembers from just a few short years ago. Her rainbow of color includes dingy shades of gray. Relying on her damaged eyes, driving is out of the question. And she long ago gave up a good book on a chilly Sunday afternoon. Carmel resident Frances Dager was losing her precious eyesight. Would she ever look up in the sky and see the stars again? Fortunately for Frances, the Cornea Research Foundation founded by Francis and Marianne Price, developed a technique to restore the use of her eyes. Frances Dager successfully underwent a cornea transplant and will be able to once again, enjoy the simple pleasure of seeing and seeing clearly. She said, “I am so happy I received a transplant. My eyesight has been deteriorating over such a long period of time I did not realize all that I have been missing. I am grateful to Dr. Price and The Foundation for the gift of vision.” Frances has experienced a recovery process that is taking just weeks instead of a year due to the strides being made in improving the cornea transplant techniques. Frances realizes the procedure she just received is due to the generous support of benefactors to the Cornea Research Foundation. They receive no government support, but instead rely on individuals to fund

continuing research and improvement to the procedures. On Friday, September 28, 2012 at the Renaissance Indianapolis North Hotel a benefit luncheon will take place to raise money for the cause. The 5th Annual Cornea Research Luncheon will feature an art auction of handcrafted items from local professional artists. “Through Our Eyes” is the theme and tickets can be purchased for just $40 or $300 for a table of eight. The luncheon will also include a special tribute to long-time supporter Marianne Glick. For more information Jessica@cornea.org or 317-814-2993. Founded in 1988, the Cornea Research Foundation of America is an internationally known research and educational organization with a mission to give people back the use of their eyes. It is the clinical research which is making a difference in the lives of so many people in Indianapolis and around the world. The Foundation has conducted over 100 clinical research studies and authored more than 150 journal articles with the focused goal of saving eyesight. From now on, only clouds can keep Frances from enjoying the stars.

Cover Story

Three Carmel women have guided the Arts Festival through thick and thin

Entertainment

By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com Less than smooth beginnings, if not humble beginnings. That’s the best way to describe the inception of the Carmel International Arts Festival. “It was a very, very big event,” said Doreen Squire Ficara, CIAF board member and one of the this weekend's event’s co-founders, of that first Festival 15 years ago. “But it was very hard.” Squire Ficara, along with current president Rosemary Waters and vice president Sandy Barretto, stepped in to rescue the fledgling venture after its first iteration in 1998. There was much work to be done, and many hurdles to overcome. There was unrest with the initial location – Civic Square. There was the bill the city faced – some $80,000. There was a late-night storm that knocked over tents and ruined art. There was Barretto, Squire Ficara and Waters doing virtually anything they had to do to make things go. “I’ve bagged the trash,” Squire Ficara said. There were also the sweatshirts. A lot of sweatshirts. “We had all these sweatshirts printed up to commemorate the event,” said Squire Ficara. “But it was 90 degrees that weekend – they weren’t very popular. We ended up giving a lot of them away.” “In those first years, we had no budget for entertainment,” Waters said. “So we’d go over to the library and get all the CDs we could find for any kind of international group.” They persevered. “The City Council at that time decided they were against the whole thing,” Squire Ficara said. “But we decided, ‘Too bad.’ We’re going to continue.” “We were too stupid to quit,” Barretto said. “We wouldn’t give up, and we soldiered on.” Soldiering on meant a move to Providence at Old Meridian, where the Festival began to flourish. More and more artists began to support the event, increasing from the 40-some vendors at the outset. With those additional artists, Waters said, came the biggest change in the Festival’s 15-year run. “The increase in the quality of the art has been the biggest change over the years, without a doubt,” she said. “We have people coming in from all over America, and I think our growth has been via word of mouth.” “We’re very well-known now,” added Squire Ficara. These days, the Festival has called the Arts & Design District home for five years, after migrating from Old Meridian. It draws nearly 30,000 people for its two-day run, including more than 130 artists. There is nonstop entertainment on two stages, food vendors and a corroboration with Carmel’s sister city in China, Xiangyang. “The festival tapped into something here that didn’t have an outlet before,” Barretto said. “We have such great volunteers and we really pamper our artists; we always make them feel welcome. I think that sets us apart.” There are still concerns. Keeping festival admission free, something in place since, “We charged ($8) but we had people sneaking in and it was too much to monitor,” said Squire Ficara, is the biggest issue. “We’re hoping to keep it free, but we need to get funding from the city,” Waters said. “That’s questionable right now. We’d like to keep it growing for another 15 years.” “We need support – that’s the word,” Squire Ficara added. What becomes of the festival if support is not garnered? Will all the hard work be for naught? Waters remains optimistic. “We’ve done it before,” she said. “We can do it again.” For more information visit carmelartsfestival.org. www.currentincarmel.com

Opinion Arts festival worthy of your attention

The flight of a lifetime It is our position that the nonprofit Indy Honor Flight is providing an admirable service through its mission of transporting elderly and terminally-ill Hoosier veterans to visit memorials in Washington, D.C. dedicated to honor their sacrifices. In the inaugural flight on Sept. 10, 80 World War II veterans along with volunteers consisting of guardians, trip leaders and healthcare professionals took a day trip to see the WWII War Memorial for the first time. They were honored with a proper “welcome home” on their return by a crowd of well-wishers with American flags, banners and signs at the Indiana National Guard that also included a mail call in which each veteran received several letters and cards thanking them for their service. In the words of the late Will Rogers, “We can’t all be heroes, some of us need to stand on the curb and clap as they go by.” And, thanks to the volunteers of Indy Honor Flight, Hoosier veterans of our Greatest Generation are finally receiving the welldeserved recognition for fighting to preserve our freedoms. The total cost of an honor flight is around $65,000. Donations are needed for a second honor flight. To donate, visit IndyHonorFlight.org.

Taxing consideration

Commentary by Terry Anker

For as long as there have been politicians when an election looms, candidates namecall, prevaricate and foment envy, jealously and outright hatred. In an America where only half of us pay taxes, the conflict over money is like Clark Griswold’s Thanksgiving Day argument with his perpetually unemployed brother-in-law – “give me money, you have too much.” We still determine one’s worth by paycheck – but now when one’s earnings exceed average they are judged as BAD. Isn’t this the same as criticizing Michael Jordan for scoring more points than the rest of the league? Like most things, it is a matter of perspective. If one benefits from government handouts, those programs make sense. If one pays for them, value becomes the top priority. We rarely mind when someone else is being taxed; so it would seem that the trick is to only tax those who don’t vote for our side? Rich or poor, no one likes to pay. Long ago, Adam

Smith pointed to the truth that we care more about smashing our own fingers than the deaths of a million in China. Like most, I struggle to escape my own point of view. Our kids are well-fed and sheltered. But when they seek an increase in allowance, we don’t claim a lack of affordability, tell them that we don’t love them enough, allege their needs to be without merit or wish they’d move out and die in a ditch. Instead, we wonder should our focus be on paying for education and security or benefits? Does our generosity add advantage or cause harm? And, can they learn to spend less, earn more, and be accountable for choices? They don’t like the oversight. But when folks not paying tax, push others to pay more, doesn’t it necessarily lead to tension? Shouldn’t it?

With festival season in full swing in our area and as a proud sponsor, allow us to commend to your attention the Carmel International Arts Festival, Saturday and Sunday, on Main Street and Range Line Road in the heart of the city. If you haven’t been, or if you did attend in years past and tired of visiting booths for sand art and finger-painting, we urge you to give it another try, because those days are fourth down and long gone. Not only has the organizing committee, under the direction of Rosemary Waters, secured a host of truly outstanding and varied artisans, and special attention has been paid to creating a tremendously diverse lineup of entertainment for two stages. The artistes come from parts local, national and international, and, as much as you always hear that “there will be something for everyone,” it very much will be the case this weekend. For more information, please visit www. www.carmelartsfestival.org. There is no fee for admission. ••• George Will of ABC News beat us to the punch, one of the vicissitudes of running a weekly newspaper operation. “If the Republican party cannot win in this environment, it has to get out of politics and find another business,” he said. Bingo! We’ve been talking exactly about that. We also believe that America doesn’t know the depth and breadth of Mitt Romney’s policy platforms, because he hasn’t really revealed them in full, at least not to our way of thinking. Meanwhile, President Barack Obama and his team are laughing their tails off. We believe the Republicans are looking to get a huge surge from the upcoming debates. It could be too little too late. We shall see.

Readers' Views

No race card was played Editor, After reading Derek Fisher’s “race card” response to an Indy black woman’s opinion about Carmel, I was left with a bad taste in my mouth, and I felt the need to offer a different point of view. Ms. Smith did not throw down the race card. What she did was highlight the lack of diversity in Carmel. Well, she’s right, and it’s something my six year old observed in her Carmel kindergarten class as she was the only “brownskinned” girl there. Carmel lacks diversity – it’s a statistical fact. While walkability might be important to one person, diversity is important to Ms. Smith, and that is okay. I also don’t see any exaggeration in her observations about how cities find their identities. Some cities have an organic feel about them because they were built by people from all over the world who infused their culture into the city with every brick that was laid. On the other hand, Carmel’s development in the last few decades has been very deliberate, but that’s okay, too. What’s not okay is to twist this very mild opinion piece into a race-based rant. But since you brought it up, let’s talk about race for a moment. I’ve got to tell you, I bristle every time someone says, “Slavery was abolished a long

time ago! Get over it, black people!” Yes, slavery ended 147 years ago, but equal rights as we know them today were still being fought for in the 1960s. The law didn’t catapult black Americans to equal status overnight. I think it’s important to take a closer look at recent history. Carmel had a population boom in the 1970s when Indianapolis began busing to desegregate the schools. Carmel went from 1,442 in 1960 to 18,272 by 1980. This phenomenon is also referred to as “white flight.” Add to it the fact that Carmel’s building ordinances filter out lowincome housing, and the fact that 38 percent of black Americans live in poverty, and people start joking about how many Carmel police it takes to pull over a minority. I don’t bring this up to condemn Carmel, and I also didn’t bring it up to make white people feel guilty for the deeds of the past. Slavery built on an invented racial inferiority caused a deep wound in this country, and it’s going to take a lot to heal it. Black Americans are still trying to catch up. Being critical about how long it’s taking and confusing symptoms of poverty with race is certainly not helping the cause. It’s time we stop talking about “us” and “them” and start talking about “we.” Everyone, put down your race cards. It was a false alarm. Heather Thomas, 46033

'Peace In,' Danielle Editor, I don’t get Danielle Wilson. One week she “insists” that her children play a sport, the next week complains because she’s exhausted from running them around when her husband is on a business trip. Looks like she has created her own problem. But, I think her problem is much greater, one that she’s exposed the entire north side community to for a while. She seems to enjoy dumping her problems out in her column, why not dump them out to a psychologist or pastor? I think her greatest need is “Peace In” – that is, inner peace, and it likely won’t be solved by ranting about her screaming kids, slow drivers on the road, or her husband who “doesn’t get it.” Her children and husband are

High price paid Editor, It was sad to see the natural landscape on South Guilford destroyed in order to make way for another building in Carmel. While I am sure the new Barrington facility will be a beautiful structure, it is a high price to pay for yet another loss of the natural landscape and habitat of wildlife and plants. Susie Kennedy, 46032 www.currentincarmel.com

the greatest gifts of her life, but she’s too exhausted, overworked and road-raged to notice. She’s not doing her kids or marriage any favors by her negative attitude and complaints. The greatest lesson of parenting is “modeling” and I think she will have, as she called it, “a grim future with teens”, if she continues on this out of control path. And, so, Danielle, do us all a favor and take a break from writing, find a better balance, and focus on your family. And, if you don’t mind, please give us a heads up when your 11-year old starts driving in the dented mini-van so we can all clear the roads! And may “Peace In” be with you. Grace Olivia Drier, 46032

God and Science Editor, I am intrigued by the Sept. 11 letter from Mike Carmel. In it, he maintains that only atheists have the ability to, “look into the universe without limitation.” Mike assumes all Christians believe God is responsible for that which we do not understand. As a devout Christian, I believe in both God and science. Despite what a few Christians would have us believe (and apparently a few atheists), the two should not be considered mutually exclusive. I like to think of the Bible as a precursor to the scientific discoveries of our time. In my church, we used to have a wonderful senior pastor who put it this way: The Bible tells us all the wonderful things God has done. And scientific discoveries tell us how he did it!

Opinion I’ve had it up to here with politics How well do you know Paul Ryan? VIEWS

Commentary by Danielle Wilson I am sick of politics! My relaxing Labor Day weekend was almost ruined by political talk and left me wondering whether I’ll survive the craziness long enough to actually vote in the November election. Saturday morning started off well enough. I sat on the couch for three consecutive hours eating cheese and obsessing over a grant proposal I’m writing – until my Republican husband returned from his Republican brother’s house all riled up and ready to argue. But I’m a Democrat and, more to the point, I hate discussing politics, particularly with a Wilson. They don’t listen very well, and seem to relish the fight, especially when they can gang up on the one liberal in the entire family, little ol' me. Bottom line: I avoid political discussions with in-laws when I can. Doo knows this about me, but couldn’t help himself. He pushed just the right buttons to draw me in to a debate. Before I realized what was happening, he was up in my grille about social welfare, education and defense spending, and I was yelling about his inability to acknowledge my right to a different opinion. By the end of our “chat” we were both emotionally spent, though I was proud that I had finally seen a political discussion with Doo through to the end (usually I run off crying when it gets

too heated). As it turns out, I can make a pretty good case for my party affiliation if I’m just given the chance. Go me! We had yet to recover when his Republican sister stopped by a bit later, so we steered the conversation towards my grant and enjoyed a solid hour of sampling apolitical gouda while Google-ing Cairo hotels. But then Doo’s parents decided to come over, fresh off the “2016” movie boat, and my day went to hell in a conservative handbag. I was forced to endure a lecture on the “unknown history” of Obama and, once again, get sucked into a political discussion. Enough! I. Don’t. Like. Talking. About. Politics. Never have, never will. It goes against my nonconfrontational nature and never seems to accomplish anything but raising everyone’s blood pressures. I understand we’re in the midst of a presidential election year and that the nation has seen better days, but does that mean that politics have to consume us? Must we spend every waking moment debating candidates and their platforms? There’s more to life than politics, people, like spending holiday weekends enjoying Romney-free cheddar. Peace out.

From the “Moderate” Side by Jim Blessing

When Mitt Romney announced his VP choice of Congressman Paul Ryan, Republicans immediately branded the selection as a “bold” choice. The term “bold” choice was used so often that, at first, I thought it was an advertisement for detergent. Since Romney has seemingly flip-flopped his positions on most issues between his candidacy for Senator and Governor of Massachusetts and his Presidential campaign, the selection of Ryan was considered manna to the party faithful. Ryan has a reputation among Republicans as a strong advocate for deficit reduction. However, an analysis of his 14 years in Congress raises questions with this conclusion. Putting aside Medicare, which by itself would require an entire column, I’d like to examine Ryan’s record of making “bold” choices. Now, Ryan has proposed a multitude of sharp cuts in social programs, which some of his most prominent fellow Catholics, including Bishops, have criticized as “failing a basic moral test.” However, Ryan also: • Voted for both Bush tax cuts, which ballooned the deficit from the Clinton surpluses (even John McCain voted against these tax cuts);

• Voted for Bush’s Iraq war and Medicare Prescription plan without paying for them (also significantly increasing the deficit); • Voted against the bipartisan SimpsonBowles deficit reduction plan; • Proposed reducing the top federal tax rate from 35% to 25% in his “deficit reduction” plan (which a nonpartisan analysis indicated will lead to higher taxes for the middle class and lower taxes for the wealthy); • Proposed eliminating the capital gains tax in his 2010 plan, which would drastically reduce the tax rate that extremely wealthy people like Romney pay; and • Shielded the defense budget from any spending cuts (in fact, he increased it), although the U.S. spends more for defense than the next highest 13 countries. Now, make up your own mind, is Ryan a balanced deficit hawk? He doesn’t sound like one to me! Jim Blessing is a Carmel resident. He recently retired from the U.S. Treasury after 33 years.

Who gets child custody in divorce? Attorney Lanae Harden offers information on what the courts in Indiana look for when determining child custody in a divorce. The best interest of the child is the standard by which any order of child custody is determined. If the parties agree, the court will order joint custody. Even if only one parent wants joint custody, the court may award it if the court thinks it would be in the child’s best interest.

(4328)

I have cash burning a hole in my pocket. Want some?

Play Ball-A-Rama

The court can consider many factors, including: • the wishes of the parents and whether they have agreed to joint custody; • the mental and physical health of all parties; • whether the persons are willing and able to communicate and cooperate in advancing the child’s welfare; • the wishes of the child (with more weight given to the child’s wishes if the child is at least 14 years old); • geographical proximity of the parents’ homes; and • the physical and emotional environment in each home.

By definition, legal custody is the decision making control over a child. The legal custodian(s) have control in decisions of healthcare, religion, and education. The parties can agree to any other type of decision making control. Some examples of other types of decision making control in the child's life include the participation in extracurricular activities, dating age, summer camps, age for getting a job, or methods of discipline for the child.

Physical custody may be shared between parents who do not live together through parenting time. Indiana has created minimum parenting time guidelines, but they are only a starting point. Once again, the parties may agree to whatever parenting time schedules work best for them and their children. Joint custody does NOT mean each parent will have the child one half of the time. The court can order joint legal custody, and then decide how much time each parent will have the child.

Tongue tied

Commentary by Mike Redmond

Occasionally, I imagine myself as fluent in several languages. It’s not without some basis in fact: Over the years I have studied French, Russian, Latin, German and Spanish. The fact is, when I try to speak a language other than Standard Northern Indiana, I become tongue-tied. Or, considering the number of languages involved, tongues-tied. French, for example. I took French for three years in school. What do I remember? I remember not liking French, for one thing, and I remember fragments of conversation drills, none of which I have ever used. Ever. This leads us to Russian, which I studied for about a year. My Russian is even more pathetic than my French. I remember how to say “good evening,” “thank you,” “goodbye,” “apple,” “chimpanzee,” and “who said meow?” This will be extremely useful if I am ever greeted by a meowing primate offering fruit. Now, on to Latin. I took Latin for a year, thinking it would shore up some of my linguistic weaknesses. Unfortunately, I was so rotten at it that I can’t tell if my plan worked. My Latin is pretty much limited to “Ad astra per aspera” (Through difficulty to the stars, the state motto of Kansas); “Vestis virum reddit” (Clothes make the man); and “Semper ubi sub ubi” (Always wear underwear).

So forget Latin. My Pig Latin, however, is errific-tay. German was next. For German I had a crackpot teacher who drilled the language into us with goofy bromides: “Arbeit mach das Leben süß, work makes life sweet, how true, class, how true.” I thought the man was out of his mind. I also learned more from him than any other language teacher. Now I am learning Spanish via a home study course. According to the course, I am doing splendidly. According to people who speak Spanish: Not so much. Oh, I know a lot of words and phrases, but stitching them all into conversation is another matter entirely. On the computer, I am Don Miguel, el de la lengua de plata (Sir Michael of the silver tongue). In real life, I am Mortimer Snerd, idiota. Anyway, I struggle on. As it is, I’ve already learned a dandy phrase to go with my Latin mottos and German platitudes: “Los calcetinas huelen mal.” Good one, huh? “Los calcetinas huelen mal.” Just sort of rolls right off the tongue: “Los calcetinas huelen mal.” It means: “The socks smell bad.” Call me Ortimer-may Erd-snay.

Growing problems Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I’m usually good at planning around big events. For example, I know not to schedule my once-every-five-year colonoscopy the week of the big neighborhood barbeque. I am careful not to sign up for blood tests if the fasting conflicts with the Thursday night meatloaf special at Cracker Barrel. And I’m smart enough to avoid being numbed-up for a filling on the same day I’m delivering a speech at Kiwanis. But recently, as I made final preparations to attend my high school reunion in New York, I realized I had failed to properly coordinate my barbershop appointment with my trip back east to see my old friends. I looked at the calendar and my dilemma was obvious. I knew I needed to get a haircut about two weeks before the event. Any sooner, and I’d look disheveled in all the photos. Any later, and it would be clear to my buddies that I got the trim just for the party. More importantly, I never look good right after a haircut. The magic number of days after a visit to the barbershop for me is 10. At that point, my hair is not too short, not too long. Your number may vary. I called Buddy, my barber. I figured he’d handled problems like this before. “As I look at my calendar, Dick, I think we can work this out so you’ll look good, but you’ll need to get in three haircuts before you leave www.currentincarmel.com

town for your vacation. And you’ll need to have two appointments in the same week.” “That’s crazy.” “Hey, I’m a hairstylist, not a vacation planner. How about a little color for that gray?” “If you touch up my hair right before I leave, everyone will notice. And if you don’t touch up my hair, it will look like I aged 50 years – which I did, of course. I just don’t want to make it that obvious.” I wondered if any of my friends were thinking about the same thing. I called Bob to see if he could relate to the situation. “Why are you asking me about this, Dick?” “Because, Bob, you have held many highpower executive positions, oftentimes addressing huge audiences – so you had to look your best on those days. Why wouldn’t I ask you?” “Because I am completely bald, that’s why.” I’ve decided not to worry about this anymore. Only a narcissistic person would think he had to get a haircut exactly 10 days before leaving for a trip. Not only that, but I’ll be busy that week getting Botox injections.

Wind Kissed

Local artist April Willy reflects on the Carmel International Arts Festival By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com For the last 15 years, the focal point of the Carmel International Arts Festival has been placed undeniably on the art and, beyond that, the art competition. Last year’s Best in Show winner April Willy, a painter and Carmel native, has been a long time participant in the festival. “(Winning Best in Show) was a great honor and achievement, especially considering the level of talent on display,” said Willy. “I never expect to win, but it is the icing on the cake after already getting such great exposure and good sales at the festival.” The judge of this year’s art competition will be Evan Lurie, gallery directory of Carmel’s Lurie Gallery. Having lived in New York and traveled extensively across Europe, Lurie has developed a wide network of artists from around the world while establishing one of Carmel’s most highly respected art galleries. Like most of the artists participating in the festival, Willy is truly a professional artist with her own full-time gallery in the Indiana Design Center. 20 | September 18, 2012

Willy “I have been painting professionally since attending art school in the ’80s, but made my living mostly through commercial illustration. I made the transition to working as a fine art painter around 10 years ago. I work full time doing commissions, showing in galleries and participating in regional shows,” said Willy. After years of attending all of the notable art festivals in the region, Willy decided to participate exclusively in the Carmel International Arts Festival. “I am genuinely loyal to Carmel, not just because it is my home town, but because of the overall quality of the event’s organization, pro-

motion, volunteers and talent,” said Willy. With the festival set in the center of the Carmel Art & Design district, an area filled with art galleries and designed for foot traffic, it is not surprising that the festival has gotten progressively larger as the years have gone on. “The festival truly gets better every year, which is a direct result of the great promotion the city of Carmel has given to the Arts & Design District,” said Willy. “(The festival organizers) realized, a few years ago, the need to restrain the amount of artists they were jurying in the competition in order to keep the quality of art at a peak level,” said Willy. A number of Willy’s favorite artists such as Beth Forst, Randall Harden, Julie Houck, Carol Bell, Lee Ellis and Chang Kwa Brown will also be participating in this year’s competition. For more information regarding Willy and her art gallery, visit her Web site at aprilwilly. com.

The Carmel International Arts Festival will be held at Main Street and Range Line Road in the heart of Carmel’s Arts & Design District this Saturday (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and Sunday (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Admission is free. For more information, visit carmelartsfestival.org.

Review

‘A Chorus Line’ gets a standing ovation By Kerrie Miller • editorial@youarecurrent.com When I attend a live performance of any kind, I usually sit straight up in my seat so as to take it all in. On Saturday evening, while I was at the Tarkington Civic Theatre, I found myself sitting forward in my seat, chin in my hands and a permanent smile on my face as I was pulled into an incredible production of “A Chorus Line.” I felt as though I was the director’s assistant, judging the 17 dancers on stage and listening to their individual stories as each person stepped out of the line up for their monologue, often spoken through song. With only a black back drop and the occasional use of mirrors, there were no distractions, enabling the audience to focus on each of the characters. I very much enjoyed the ballet variations that accompanied the song “At the Ballet.” Natallee Cooney (Judy) executed a beautiful penchee with her partner as Laura Lockwood (Sheila), Betsy Norton (Bebe) and Julia Bonnett (Maggie) sang the song. Laughter filled the audience when Jordan Lugar (Kristine) and John O’Brien (Al) performed the husband and wife duet “Sing!” O’Brien’s strong voice, along with Lugar’s innocent execution of her character’s story, made me want their performance to continue for as long as possible. Anne Nicole Beck (Cassie) breezed through her dance to “The Music and the Mirror” effortlessly to the very end as she finished with a striking pose.

Same great staff. Same great location. 'A Chorus Line' runs through Saturday The golden finale of “One” was a reminder that this energetic, two-hour performance was coming to an end. The singing and dancing from all of the characters was as strong at the end as it was in the beginning. As the curtain closed on the synchronized kick line, I watched the audience begin to stand and applaud, anxiously awaiting a curtain call. The lights in the Tarkington Theatre came on and the curtain remained down. Oh how I wished that curtain would lift so the performers could see the standing ovation, because each and every one of them deserved this.

Cutting tobacco use for October could earn you $2,500 editorial@youarecurrent.com The Hamilton County Council on Alcohol and Other Drugs is encouraging residents to start training to win and sign up for the Quit Now Indiana contest. Reducing tobacco use saves lives, but pairing those efforts with healthy diet and exercise choices can make quitting tobacco for good that much easier. The 2012 Quit Now Indiana will once again challenge Hoosier smokers to quit tobacco for the month of October. According to the CDC, positive lifestyle changes increase the success rates of people trying to quit smoking. Good nutrition, increased consumption of water and exercise help with quitting tobacco. “Quitting tobacco often takes planning and preparation,” said State Health Commissioner Gregory Larkin, M.D. “Make a ‘training’ plan for the first few months to help you form new habits during those times when you would be using tobacco. By incorporating more exercise into your day, making healthier eating choices, and drinking plenty of water, you’ll stay occupied, while at the same time, creating a healthier overall lifestyle and mindset. We have plenty of Quit Coaches at the Indiana Tobacco Quitline, 1-800-QUIT-NOW, who can provide training tips that meet your needs.” The statewide contest is designed to encour-

age Hoosiers using tobacco products to make an attempt to quit now by offering them a chance to win cash prizes up to $2,500 for remaining tobacco-free for 31 days. The promotional contest is part of a larger statewide campaign known as Quit Now Indiana, linking tobacco users to cessation resources. To be eligible to win, contestants must be 18 years or older, a legal resident of Indiana, a current tobacco user and stay tobacco free from Oct. 1-31. The registration period is open until Sept. 30. Contest winners will be drawn at random and will be tested to make sure they are tobacco-free to be eligible to claim a prize(s). The 2012 contest is supported by St. Vincent Health and MDWise Hoosier Alliance. Last year’s contest received more than 4,500 entries representing every county in Indiana. HCCAOD Director George Kristo said the contest comes at an important time, as there are fewer places to smoke with the new statewide smoke free air law in Indiana. Hoosier tobacco users can get free help in quitting from the Indiana Tobacco Quitline, 1-800-QUIT-NOW. Eligible Hoosiers can register locally at the Noblesville Public Library, 1 Library Plaza. Online registration is available at www.QuitNowIndiana.com and www.INShapeIndiana.org. For contest rules and more resources, visit www. QuitNowIndiana.com.

Adding back to the community - since 2008

Reinvented furniture seller sets up shop By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com Elizabeth Gray Fine Home Furnishings and Gifts is now open at the Carmel Old Town Antique Mall, 38 W. Main St. But unlike some other furniture retailers, Elizabeth Gray’s wares won’t be factory fresh. “What I do is furniture reinvention,” said Sarah Arkanoff, owner of Elizabeth Gray. “I don’t want to call it refurbishing or restoration because I take vintage and antique furniture and paint it, distress it, put my touch on it.” Arkanoff, who studied painting and art history in college, came by her venture honestly. “I got dragged through these kinds of places all the time when I was a kid,” she said. “If we didn’t have money to buy a piano, my mom would strip one and paint it. I learned what I lived, for sure. It’s been a passion of mine for a long time, so this is a way to marry that into something interesting to me.” Arkanoff is a former Carmel resident who now lives in Brownsburg with her husband and three children: Lucy, Elizabeth and Grayson. It’s after the latter two that the business is named.

It was her time in Carmel that eventually led to her choosing the Antique Mall for her location. “My husband and I used to come here all the time” said Arkanoff. “We’d find ourselves with nothing to do on a Sunday sometimes and come here and wander around. The fact that it’s open seven days a week was a draw for me to want to sell here.” What she’s selling is quality that is getting harder and harder to find. “This is all my handiwork,” Arkanoff said. “Most of my stuff comes from estate sales and auctions. It all has a history, and what I like to say is that my stuff has good bones, compared to some of the stuff you find new in stores. Everything is so solidly built compared to current things. It’s built better and it’s budget friendly.”

All 92 Indiana counties designated primary disaster areas editorial@youarecurrent.com Lt. Gov.Becky Skillman and Indiana State Executive Director of the Farm Service Agency Julia Wickard recently announced that all 92 Indiana counties have been designated primary natural disaster areas by the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture. The word comes after Skillman and Wickard Skillman sent a letter on July 25 to U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Thomas Vilsack, requesting a Secretarial disaster designation for Indiana, due to the impact of excessive heat, Autopilot – You save automatically through your 401(k), and money piles up without your ever having to lift a finger.

Grammar Guy

Ten items or fewer

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: I really enjoyed your article about the differences between “effect” and “affect.” I wonder if sometime you could also write an article about the usages of “few” and “less.” No one seems to know there are situations where one should use “few.” Even news anchors botch this usage. – Rita Fugit, Carmel Answer: Fewer people do seem to be using the word “few” these days. Luckily, I had a high school English teacher who was a stickler for the rule, so I have an answer for you. As in my first sentence above, “few” or “fewer” should be used when describing plural nouns that are discretely quantifiable. These are also called count nouns, which, to put it simply, means you can easily count them. A simple test is to put a number in front of the noun you are looking to modify. If you can say “seven people,” “or 25 people” or “1 million people,” and the phrase makes sense, then you have a count noun and should use “fewer.” “Less” comes into play for mass nouns – which, if you read a lot of Slylock Fox like I did when I was young, you may have already deduced are nouns that are not easily countable. These are going to be more abstract subjects:

crime, pollution, beauty, etc. So, there may be less crime today than in past decades, but there are fewer criminals. There are quirks to the rule, of course. Some nouns – I don’t have a list for you, sorry – have both a mass and count form. Take a word like “fear.” If you go sky diving to conquer a fear of heights, you might have one fewer fear than you did before. If you turned on a flashlight in a dark room, however, you would be less fearful. In the first example, “fear” serves as a count noun because it is specific and quantifiable – the fear of heights, closed spaces, broccoli, whatever. In the second example, “fear” is a mass noun because it is used more abstractly. You can have seven distinct fears, but you don’t feel seven distinct fears – you just feel fear. One final item of note before I let you go: Throw out the last 350 or so words when it comes to time, distance and money. We use “less” for these. You have less than $50. You run a mile in less than 10 minutes. Et cetera.

What we are created to be “What do you want to be when you grow up?” When I was 5 or so, I wanted to be an ambulance driver. It wasn’t a better or worse answer than fireman or soldier or brain surgeon or fry cook. I just wanted to be an ambulance driver. It’s always cute to ask little kids what they want to be. And more than a few of us quinquagenarians (people between age 50-59) have worked through a career or two and still joke about “what we want to be when we grow up.” At that level, it’s sort of a personal commentary or maybe a reflection of life choices. But whether it’s asked of a 5 year old or a 50 year old, “What do you want to be?” is a docile question driven more by cuteness or wryness than expectation of commitment to a vocation. How much different it is to ask, “What were you created to be?” Answering that question requires some semblance of mature self-awareness. Raised to the next level, let’s ask “What were you Created to be?” with a capital “C” on “Creator.” Now it’s not just about us. To answer that question one must stare straight back at God. What did God Create us to be? The only example in history of what God Himself created any of us to truly be is the example of Jesus Christ. God is perfect, created mankind perfectly and wants us to be perfect. But the

one thing we all know is that we are not perfect. And why is that? Because God was wrong? God is weak? God lied? God doesn’t care? No. God’s perfect plan for mankind – which was to create us in His image, to have us freely worship Him and to have us share in His eternal divine love – took a big-time fall in the Garden of Eden when Satan used man’s free will to question and mock God’s authority. Satan tricks us into thinking we were created for our own benefit. It’s the world’s oldest trick and mankind, imperfectly, keeps falling for it. What we have in Jesus is the ultimate human role model. Jesus would not, could not, be suckered into Satan’s temptations (Matthew 4:1-11). Yes, Jesus is fully and perfectly God, but He is also fully and perfectly human. Jesus’ humanity could resist Satan because He had been baptized into the Spirit and answered Satan with scripture. That’s something we can emulate; that’s the humanity we should pursue. Satan wants us to look at the world and worship what we want to be. God wants us to look at Jesus Christ and see who we were created to be.

Rock center in Jerusalem Commentary by Don Knebel

For some, the Dome of the Rock is just an image from a travel poster, identifying Jerusalem in the way the Eifel Tower identifies Paris. But to billions of people, the famous golden dome, perched atop a blue porcelain base, is much more than a landmark – it shields a rock with enormous spiritual power. The Dome of the Rock sits near the center of the Temple Mount. Built by Herod the Great in 19 B.C. Most scholars agree that the Jewish Second Temple once stood on this platform. But when Islamic armies captured Jerusalem from the Byzantines in 634 A.D., the Second Temple was long gone, having been destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D. The new rulers of Jerusalem decided that the area surrounding an outcropping of rock on the flat surface of the Temple Mount would be the perfect spot for an imposing building announcing that Islam had arrived in the holy city toward which Muhammad and his followers had originally prayed. The Dome of the Rock, completed in 691 A.D., duplicated to within a few inches the dimensions of the blue-grey dome covering the tomb of Jesus on the nearby Church of the Holy Sepulcher. Most Muslims today associate the rock beneath the dome with a magical night ride they believe Muhammad made to Jerusalem in 621

A.D., from which he traveled to heaven and spoke with Abraham, Moses and Jesus. But many Jews and Christians believe the dome covers the rock around which King Solomon, following God’s instructions, built the First Temple. So for those who dream of a Third Temple exactly where they believe God said it should be, the Dome of the Rock is not a holy memorial, but an unwelcome obstacle. Ironically, Jerusalem’s beautiful golden dome covers a rock at the very center of religious contention. Don Knebel works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

Is this goodbye, my beloved? Commentary by Vicky Earley You knew it had to happen sometime. Nothing, other than quality, is truly timeless. This time, the beloved of the kitchen set, stainless steel, just might be hearing the ticktock, tick-tock of the trend clock. Before you panic, allow me to assure you that there is still plenty of style life left in your shiny new stainless steel refrigerator, and that stainless is still the darling of the appliance world. It is a safe choice and is not scheduled to go the way of Harvest Gold anytime soon. That being said, there are rumblings. There have been tests of oiled-rubbed bronze appliances that simply appeared brown. Antique copper has been tried as well as a deep gray tone called meteorite. None of these has been able to top the current favorite: stainless steel. The Wall Street Journal recently ran a piece on Whirlpool’s entre into the world of trendsetting with its introduction of the “White Ice Collection,” a mirrored-glass over white and silver accented finish. WSJ reported that a recent Whirlpool news release stated, “White is the new stainless.” While Whirlpool is focused on white, it was reported that the upscale appliance line, Wolf, is trending toward black. Their news release stated “Black is the new stainless”. Hmmmm … do I sense a contradiction? The Journal went on to explain that recently

General Electric introduced refrigerators, ovens, microwaves and dishwashers in a muted gray called “slate.” Before you shake your head at the idea of a return to the white appliance that was thought to be the budget version of any given appliance, the new white is sleek, sexy and oh-so glossy. When it finds space on appliance store floors next to the countless rows of stainless steel products, it is sure to turn a few heads. No, it isn’t time to totally give up on stainless steel … but it is time to consider that there are other options and that good design is as individual as the finger prints all over the front of a stainless steel refrigerator! Vicky Earley is the principal designer for Artichoke Designs in downtown Carmel. If you have an interior design question, please contact artichokedesigns@aol.com.

Neutral – If you want to redo your bedroom, but want to freshen the look without having to repaint the walls, try a soft neutral color; for example, try going with a subdued, warm light gray color. Using splashes of blue and large patterned rugs gives the room lots of color, but is very versatile and light on the effort side of things. - www.bhg.com F. C. Tucker Company ’s

INSIDE & OUT

Outdoors

Transforming your backyard into a private escape Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL BACK YARD: This home is located in the Bridlebourne subdivision on the west side of Carmel and was built in 1996. The current owners have lived in it since Sept 2009 and were not happy with the simple deck and the underutilized back yard space. “The backyard had no character and the space was wide open. Also, we have quite a lot of storage under the deck but it was not very accessible. We wanted a second set of stairs so we could use that space better.” REASONS FOR UPGRADING DECK: The owners had already remodeled most of the interior. “After completing the interior, we felt we should have an equally upgraded exterior as well. The layout was dated, and we wanted it to flow with the style of the inside of the house. Also, we wanted a hot tub, and we knew we would have to remodel the deck to accommodate it.” DECK RAILING DETAILS: The expanded deck was completely reframed to include more seating and space for the new hot tub. The existing deck boards were replaced with Trex Transcend deck boards with hidden fasteners. The new railing is Trex handrail with powder coated aluminum belly balusters.

Before STAMPED CONCRETE SEATING AREA: The lower patio area includes a stamped concrete patio seating area surrounded by concrete paver seating walls and planter boxes. The new outdoor fireplace includes a 36-inch wide firebox and twin wood storage fireboxes covered with matching brick veneer and limestone caps and accents. FAVORITE FEATURES: “We spend a lot of time on the deck and love using the hot tub. We will use the lower patio and fireplace level more

After in the fall. My wife loves her tiered, raised garden beds. She has had fun planting and harvesting this year. It has been a while since she had a garden, and there is nothing like homegrown vegetables.”
