When 4-year-old Henley Hazel Romine died on July 19, she became a shining symbol of strength, hope and courage.

“She didn’t know she was sick,” charity said her father, Grant Romine. “She always had a smile, a twinkle in her eye and an unbelievable sense of humor.”

“In just four and half years, she touched so many lives and so many people,” said Lynsey Romine, her mother.

When Henley was one year old she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma, a rare form of childhood cancer. Yet in those three years Henley, her parents and 6 year old brother, Cooper, faced the disease with unimaginable fortitude.

During Henley’s three arduous years of treatment, the family was forced to travel, rarely seeing their home in Carmel.

“We traveled her whole life,” Lynsey said. “We were in New York City, in Grand Rapids, where the facilities were for Henley’s treatments. We did not live here for three years.”

Despite the overwhelming demands of the treatments, the Romines ensured that Henley’s life was filled with much joy.

“We would visit beaches,” Grant said. “Henley loved the beach. When we were in New York we visited Central Park. We did everything. Cooper actually remembers the time we spent in Central Park.”

“Henley also got to take her Make-a-Wish trip

to Disney World,” Lynsey said. “It was a wonderful time.” The trip was sponsored by the Make a Wish Foundation, an organization that specializes in granting wishes to children who have been diagnosed with life-threatening medical conditions.

Through it all, the Romines have remained steadfast and positive. Both credit a supportive network of family and friends. Part of that network includes Lynsey Romine’s sister, Emily, who has stayed with the family during this difficult time.

“We really needed her,” Lynsey said. “She’s just been incredible. We could not have made it through without her. We’ve had the love and support of so many.”

The Romine family intends to start a foundation that will help families dealing with the pressures of cancer treatment. “The foundation is in its early stages,” Grant said. “We hope that the foundation will be able to raise awareness and assist families with medical bills, such as stays in the ICU.” “There’s so much that needs to be done during treatment,” Lynsey explained. “You have to keep a safe, clean environment in your home. It can be completely overwhelming. We’d like to help take the burden off of some families. So many people have given us so many ideas.”

Above all, the Romines want Henley’s legacy to reflect the hope that she shared with so many.

“Henley would just draw people in,” Lynsey said.

“She was so inspiring, loving, and faithful.”

“She changed our lives for the better,” Grant said.

“Most people only dream of angels, we got to hold one on earth.”

Back on top – After finishing No. 2 in the rankings in 2012, Carmel schools have regained the top spot in ISTEP rankings for students in all grade levels who passed both the math and language arts portions of the ISTEP test. For the spring of 2013, 92.9 percent of all Carmel students in third through eighth grade passed the test. Carmel last had the top ranking in 2011. “As educators, we are proud of our students’ accomplishments on the ISTEP test as well as their many other achievements. Our student successes are a culmination of the dedication, support and hard work of our families and staff,” said Carmel Schools Superintendent Nicholas Wahl.

Food trucks to help marching band

By Chris Bavender • news@currentincarmel.com Food, fun, music and a chance to drive off in a new car are all part of the Carmel High School Marching Band’s third annufundraiser al Community Night: Taste of the Trucks on Sept. 27.

In previous years, the money raised at the event has gone toward operational costs of the band, but this year it has a dual purpose – to help send the 250 band members to the Tournament of Roses Parade on New Years Day in Pasadena, Calif.

“Last year the group won the national championship and received an invitation that night for the Rose Parade,” said Timothy Dawson, band booster president. “So we are doing essentially in 12 or 13 months what most bands have 18 months to do – raise funds for the trip. To make that happen within a year is a challenge but one we are happy about and one we are up for.”

The event will feature 18 food trucks including Bub’s Burgers, Scratch and Carmel’s newest food truck – SoHo to Go. Music by a local DJ and the parent pep band also are part of the evening’s festivities. The Marching Greyhounds also will perform this year’s program, “Totem.”

A drawing for a car from Dreyer & Reinbold BMW & Mini also will take place. Raffle tickets – if still available the evening of the event – will cost $100. All proceeds will go toward the trip.

Dawson said the event raised more than $12,000

Taste of the Trucks

last year. This year’s goal is more than $15,000. “(The Taste of Trucks event) is not only a fun evening of great food and entertainment but a way for us to say thank you to the Carmel community for their support of our group,” said Chris Kreke, associate director of bands and director of the CHS marching band. “We could not even dream of taking a group of 250 students on a trip of this magnitude without the financial support of our fans and community members. We are dependent on their generosity in order to make our student’s dreams come true.”

Local painter gaining NYC foothold

By Nina Johnson • news@currentincarmel.com

Carmel artist Mary Johnston has exhibited her contemporary landscape paintings in art shows stretching across the country from art New York to New Mexico. She received personal requests to return for events such as the Harding Art Show in Nashville, Tenn., the St. Charles Fine Art Show in Illinois and the South University Show in Ann Arbor, Mich.

But when Spectrum New York invited her to be a spotlight artist at the new Javits Center, Johnston was surprised. The exhibitor committee of Spectrum’s juried art fair usually requires mid-career artists of national and international recognition to submit a portfolio for review.

Spectrum uses the expertise of a committee of art industry professionals with outstanding reputations in publishing and artist development.

The committee reviews an artist’s previous three years’ work experience with galleries and trade buyers to determine eligibility to participate in a Spectrum exhibit.

“Under Mary’s paintbrush, canvases come to life with vibrant sunsets, shimmering trees and billowing cloudscapes,” Spectrum said of Johnston’s work. “Her palette is bright and bold, inviting viewers to experience the shapes and textures in an all-new, dramatic light.”

“I participated at Art Expo in New York City last March as a solo artist,” Johnston said.

Redwood Media Group managed the expo and witnessed her work’s audience appeal.

Serene landscapes – Mary Johnston shares her expertise as an instructor at the Carmel Academy of the Arts. She also displays her works during every Carmel Arts & Design Second Saturday Gallery Walk at 27 E. Main St.

“They asked me to participate in what they considered their higher-end show premiering at the Javits,” she said. “Getting picked as one of their spotlight artists was an honor. The group loved my work and knew I had done well at Art Expo.”

Awards draw local celebrities

By Terri L. Spilman • news@currentincarmel.com “I’m from Indiana. If I get it, everyone gets it.”

That was the philosophy of the late Indiananative and Academy Award diversion winning director and actor Sydney Pollack when adapting a screenplay for Jayne Austen’s classic novel, “Sense and Sensibility.”

Pollack will be honored posthumously at the Indiana Governor’s Arts Awards ceremony Sept. 26 at the Palladium.

Philanthropist Christel DeHaan, Music Educator Cynthia DeHann Hartshorn, Singer/Songwriter John Hiatt, Bloomington Mayor Mark Kruzan and the statewide arts organization, Traditional Arts Indiana, also will be recognized at the awards ceremony.

“It is a great honor to be Hiatt recognized with the Governor’s Arts Award. In almost every vibrant city or state there is a strong emphasis on arts and culture, as they enrich communities and lives. Indiana arts organizations continue to make progress in offering Hartshorn

excellent artistic product to their audiences and I am pleased that the Christel DeHaan Family Foundation has played a role in supporting them,” said Dehaan.

The evening will include performances by The Technicians, a 30-member choir from Arsenal Technical High School originally formed by award recipient Cynthia Hartshorn and the Not So Bad Bluegrass Band.

Hiatt will be the final award recipient of the evening and will also perform.

“People ask me about being the artistic director of the Palladium in Carmel, and they act as if I’ve gone to live in the Mojave desert as a hermit,” said Feinstein when asked if artists from the Midwest have a creative advantage or perhaps a more universal appeal because of their Midwestern sensibilities.

“I love being involved in the Indiana arts community because it’s quite vibrant. There is a greater appreciation for the arts here than in many other places,” Feinstein said. “There is great wisdom and understanding on how the arts can provide greater good in the community without the snobbism of larger metropolitan cities.”

Bedford limestone sculptor William Galloway created the award statuettes this year. Galloway maintains a reputation as one of the best sculptors in the Indiana stone belt. His work can be found on the National Cathedral, the Iowa State Capitol and in Bloomington parks, among other places.

The 2013 awards program will mark 40 years since the inception of the program. Originally conceived in 1973, the biennial awards program honors individuals, organizations, partnerships, businesses and communities that have made significant contributions to the arts in and beyond the confines of Indiana.

Indiana First Lady Karen Pence will serve as honorary chair for the event.

“As many people know, the arts mean a great deal to me personally, but even more importantly, Mike and I realize the significant impact the arts have in our state,” Pence said. “To be sure, the arts enhance our quality of life, but they also contribute to further economic development, tourism and excellence in education which make Indiana a great place to live and work.”

The First Lady painted a watercolor rendering of the Center for the Performing Arts as part of the festivities that will be on display at the Palladium on Sept. 26 during the awards program.

Awards ceremony tickets still are available and can be purchased at the Palladium box office or by calling 843-3800.

City Council recap What happened: Discussion of 2014 city budget delayed What’s next: The public hearing on a proposed budget for 2014 will be conducted at the Oct. 7 council meeting.

What it means: Two separate budgets will be sorted out and the council will vote to approve one. Curtis Coonrod of the city’s contracted accounting firm, C.L. Coonrod and Co., said taxes won’t increase and the budget is funded. He said the difference in the two budgets stemmed from a failure to disburse old public pension savings.

Coonrod said no pension cuts would be made, it was just a necessary administrative measure after the state began funding the pensions in 2011. Public employee salaries will be discussed at the same time.

What happened: $3.4 million allocated for extending Illinois Street What it means: Money in the city’s Thoroughfare Fund and Keystone Improvement Fund could be transferred to a fund to extend Illinois Street in advance of U.S. 31 construction. This could reduce the amount of a bond needed to help fund the project.

What’s next: Subject of public hearing at Oct. 7 council meeting.

What happened: Range Line Road development standards changed

What it means: The city would still encourage the construction of two-story buildings, but a single story building that’s at least 17 feet tall would be allowed.

What’s next: No more action needed

What happened: Allocated money for projects surrounding City Center What it means: What it means: The council approved three contracts to pay American Structurepoint a total of $125,000 for professional services in regard to the construction of The Mezz and Nash buildings adjacent to City Center and for future planning purposes.

What’s next: No more action needed

What happened: Rezoned a portion of unbuildable land What it means: A parcel of land on the northeast corner of the intersection of Old Meridian Street and Carmel Drive on which the owners hope to develop a new Horizon Bank that had two separate zoning designations.

What’s next: Plan Commission will make a recommendation and return it to council.

Other news: Eric Seidensticker said the often-delayed bike lanes ordinance will likely be resolved with a compromise from the city attorney and a judge. He detailed legitimate scheduling conflicts between the two that had previously delayed the ordinance.

Carmel Theatre Co. is born

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com The group previously known as Carmel Repertory Theatre has announced that, after several months of planning performing arts meetings and discussion, they have regrouped and made several changes to their organization. The changes include a new board of trustees, a new chairperson and a new name – Carmel Theatre Co. Although no shows for the upcoming season have been selected yet, CTC’s focus will be on family friendly theatre, and it also will place an emphasis on education, beginning with two musical theatre workshops – one for children and one for teens and adults.

Both workshops will teach acting, singing, stage movement and character development.

Students will develop an audition monologue and song, and the adult workshops also will include information about résumés, headshots and audition techniques.

Carol Keddington and Elizabeth Scoble, both experienced teachers and performers, will conduct the eight-week workshops which will both begin Oct. 12.

“We are so excited to offer live theatre in the Carmel Arts and Design District. Our focus will provide opportunities for the whole family to enjoy and participate in the theatrical experience,” said John Clair, the new chair of CTC’s board.

Clair and his wife, June McCarty Clair, along with a group of volunteers from the organization, were heavily involved in the AACTFest convention, a national festival of community theatres from across the country, which was held at the Tarkington Theatre and the Renaissance Hotel in June.

In order to raise funds for the upcoming season and the changes in store, CTC will present two performances of a “Talent Extravaganza” Oct. 11 and 12 at 7 p.m.

Auditions for the fundraiser performances will be conducted Sept. 28 and 29 and Oct. 3.

CTC is located in Studio 15, a 70-seat theatre space which is located at 15 1st Avenue, N.W., just off Main Street in Carmel. All interested community members are encouraged to audition, for both the talent showcase fundraiser and the regular season.

Getting a child to sit still long enough for a photo can be tough enough. Add in the frustration of trying to get that perlearning fect action shot, and you just might swear off photography forever.

But don’t fret. There’s a new course in Carmel that can help amateur photographers capture all the frame-able moments in a child’s life.

Capturing Childhood: A Photo Class for Moms is geared toward helping the everyday photographer learn the best techniques for getting the pictures they want using a digital camera.

“It’s not about taking portraits or replacing professional photography services – it’s about capturing the everyday moments in life and learning how to tackle challenges like movement, focus and lighting,” said Beth Buddenbaum, general manger for Indy Photo. “We want to help moms learn how use their camera so they aren’t ending up with photos they can’t frame. This is a sort of back-to-basics class – parents don’t want to take a lighting class – just learn how to take really good pictures of their kids.”

The course instructor, Danielle Thompson, is a lifestyle photographer with two young girls.

Buddenbaum said she understands the unique challenges of photographing children.

The four-week course will be conducted on Mondays from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Oct. 7 through

Oct. 28. The first three classes will be at Blu Moon Café, 200 S. Range Line Rd. The final class will be at Founders Park at 116th Street and Hazel Dell Parkway.

“It’s like a big play date. The parents bring their children and get to take pictures of them in action,” Buddenbaum said. “And, instead of standing there not know what setting to use to capture their child running by, there is someone there to help them work through that process.”

UNITED WAY’S FOCUS ON

Monday through Friday, Justin Graves makes an early commute on the Hamilton County Express to his job in Carmel.

IN HAMILTON COUNTY

Justin has been a utility clerk at Kroger for eight years, hired through Noble of Indiana’s Community Employment Service.

Launched in 1986 as the state’s first supported employment service for adults with developmental disabilities, the program helps individuals explore their career interests and skills and matches them with a job. They benefit by becoming more independent and financially self-sufficient, while the company gains a hard-working, dedicated employee.

In the same way that Kroger counts on Justin, our community counts on United Way to be just as reliable in meeting the needs of Central Indiana residents. One of its top priorities is helping individuals become self-sufficient by providing the support they need to earn a livable income.

Before coming to Kroger, Justin held three other jobs, but none were able to offer him the full-time hours he needed to provide for himself and his grandmother, Maxine.

Building on the experience he gained at his previous places of employment, Kroger saw his potential and gave him the hours he needed to become independent.

Justin is responsible for bagging groceries, collecting carts and stocking items. His outstanding level of customer service has earned him praise from Kroger customers and colleagues, alike. According to his supervisor, “Justin is as reliable as gravity. He wants to work hard and make people smile. I wish I had a whole store full of Justins!”

In the last year, Noble has helped over 100 individuals with disabilities find jobs. And, through a broad range of employment services, these individuals earned a cumulative $2.24 million: money that goes back into our local economy.

Through your support of United Way, organizations like Noble are fueling the success of Central Indiana.

Congratulations to the following companies whose United Way campaigns had at least a 30% or $30,000 increase over last year! uwci.org/hamilton

Fifty-six youth lacrosse teams competed in the fifth annual USL Under-15 National Championship, powered by Lacrosse Unlimited, from July 26 through 28 at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. Nationals presented Green Machine with its toughest competition yet as powerhouses from around the nation gathered for three days of great lacrosse. A young

Green Machine team finished 1-5 on the weekend.

“This is a great measuring stick for our players of what lacrosse looks like at its highest level.

We expect to be back here soon, as the majority of our team still has another year of eligibility.

This was a great experience,” Coach Dan Gray said.

Green Machine players include: J.J. Bogner, Austin Casati, Jack Donnelly and Chad Kittaka of Carmel; David Bedich, Luke Dennen, Griffen Gallant and Tag Rusk of Cathedral; Alex Butterfield and Max Shores of Fishers; Branden Stoeffler of Hamilton Southeastern; Matt Jost and Blaine Wilson of Noblesville; and Cameron Bender, Wyatt Campbell, Nick Luker, Jake Nutter, John Rusyniak and Dakota Vorbroker of Zionsville.

These Girl Scouts sell biscuits Commentary by Jeff Worrell

The ladies of Scout Troop 831follow the Girl Scout Law, which challenges them to make the world a better place. volunteerism And like any good girl scout who is smart, determined and creative the girls of Troop 831 also are opportunists.

They know a huge crowd will gather for the Carmel International Arts Festival this weekend.

And maybe, just maybe; this crowd can help them fulfill their promise to make the world a better place. Troop 831 is bound and determined to give it a try, having prepared for the two-day event over the last several weeks.

Megan Cline, Ally Fleckenstein, Emily Fleckenstein, Marie Hamilton, Allyson Lafon, Brittany Langland, Rachel Pleasant and Elizabeth Schumacher tend to think big. As they should. They are tackling their Girl Scout Silver Project.

They agreed to raise enough money to sponsor the training for one dog for a military veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The program, Pets Healing Vets, is sponsored by the Hamilton County Humane Society and provides a companion animal to help with the symptoms of PTSD. Raising $800 is the goal - a monumental amount for freshmen. But let’s not forget they are freshmen Girl Scouts.

Troop Leader Nancy Lafon, volunteer moms

In a divine service at 3:00 pm on September 29 we will receive Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod charter membership.

Following the service there will be a free catered luncheon.

You are welcome to join us as we give thanks to God for this milestone in the life of Divine Savior Lutheran Church.

and the girls will staff a tent on the perimeter of the big festival at 216 1st St. NW (near Bub’s Burgers) on Sept. 28 and 29. There, you can stop by to offer encouragement or even make a purchase to support the girls in their goal.

In the Troop 831 tent they will be selling homemade dog biscuits. Three yummy biscuits cost $2.50, and they come from a special recipe - not secret - but extremely healthy for your pooch. They are also making beaded necklaces and bracelets. Although I have not seen them yet, I am told they are amazingly beautiful and affordable.

Lisa Pleasant, a troop mother helping with the project said, “These women are so considerate of others, but they are gaining valuable confidence taking on a project this large. They are determined to raise the $800 by washing cars, babysitting and selling products they made.”

As you stroll Main Street from east to west looking for the perfect painting for your wall or sculpture for your den, remember the young ladies of Troop 831. They have been creating their own form of art which is sure to please much more than just the eye.

Breaking the mold International Arts Festival a chance to explore life, art outside the ordinary Interviews and Illustrations

by Pete Smith (All photos submitted) The International Arts Festival will once again take over Main Street and flood its curbsides with the unusual, the fascinating and the beautiful. The event will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sept. 28 and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Sept 29. Below we have detailed which artists’ work will be displayed on each block of the festival area. Also note that you don’t need to find street parking; just park on the south and west side of the high school and catch a leisurely golf cart ride to the events. And remember to enjoy new sights, sounds and food at one of the events that makes Carmel a great city to live in.

Note: Interviews have been edited for style and length.

Slipstream

Is an Indianapolis-based acoustic rock band with two acoustic guitars, a bass, a piano and percussion.

How long have you been playing together? In this configuration, about 4 months. Slipstream was formed last year to support the request from the International Arts Festival for musical performers as a four-piece. We added Tim Delia on percussion for this year’s event.

What are some of your band’s favorite songs to play? We play a wide variety of covers and familiar songs not often played by other acts. It allows us to establish our own niche and have some fun. We also play a couple of originals written by Dwayne Kendall and Jeff Purdy. They’re all good!

Do you have plans to tailor your set for the audience?

We selected songs for the festival we feel the audience will appreciate while giving us the opportunity to showcase our talents playing familiar songs and have some fun doing it.

What would you say to people to get them to come see your show? We are a fun acoustic band with great vocals and musicians that play familiar songs from a wide variety of new and classic artists.

Oriental dance engages multiple muscle groups at one time in a smooth, sensual and feminine way. It mimics forms, shapes and concepts in nature. It interprets music in a way unlike any other dance in the world. It is the oldest dance form known to humankind.

What are your interactions with an audience like? If I can, I try to get everyone up and dancing - at the very least, bobbing or moving along while clapping in their chair. If I am close enough to the audience and have easy access to get on and off the stage, I try to start a Conga Line as long as everyone is amenable to it. I at least get children and the young-at-heart up to dance who appear to be enjoying the revelry.

Tim Wright

people listening to you haven’t paid a ticket price to come see you, and they have no preconceived expectations. For the most part, I don’t play the same music when I play solo as I play in The Wright Brothers Band.

Is there anywhere online people can listen to your music beforehand? I have one video on YouTube that people may view, but this one style could be misleading. I wrote a song for the DRIVE4COPD campaign in 2011 that spokespeople, Billy Ray Cyrus and Patty Loveless, chose to use as the theme song. The song video is on YouTube under W. Timothy Wright “Just as Long as I Can’t Breathe” (www.youtube. com/watch?v=wGTPAJsd72E). I may throw this one in for my set.

Has been performing oriental dance (commonly known as belly dance) for nearly 10 years.

When did you learn the art? I began learning Ali the ancient art of oriental dance in 2004 at Columbia College in Chicago while taking a course on “Spirituality & Empowerment” where our instructor, an initiate in South American Shamanism, was showcasing different religions and spiritual beliefs throughout the semester. We were all made to get up and dance.

What do you enjoy about dancing?

Is a Carmel musician who is known for playing in The Wright Brothers Band and ocassionaly playing the pedal-steel guitar with Barometer Soup.

Wright What style of music are you known for playing? I play a variety of music styles including country, pop, folk rock and bluegrass. I may do a bit of all of these styles at the International Arts Festival, including several originals.

Why should people come see your set? I’ve found that playing a variety of musical styles usually works well when the

Taste of Egypt

Larry Agnello

Is a 49-year-old Indianapolis sculptor.

He also is the father of 15-year-old triplets, Sara, Samantha and Jenna.

How did you get interested in sculpture? I painted for 30 years and was never satisfied with my work. After a trip to Africa where I stayed for eight months, I fell in love with African art and masks and the way the Africans use old hardware or found objects on their masks.

What is your favorite material to sculpt? I love to use vintage and antique machine parts. Old mechanical components from machines. These days everything is electronic, nothing moves, and almost everything is plastic. I never use plastic in my pieces. I love to use old sewing machine parts, adding machine parts, clock parts. Gears, rocker arms, typewriter parts, anything that moved.

What do you hope your art conveys to your audience? I hope that my pieces initiate some type of emotional response from people, any emotion. I try to have a sense of humor in my pieces, so a lot of times they make people smile, but also the vintage parts usually remind people of some part of their past, their childhood maybe, as they discover more and more parts in the piece that they recognize.

Where is your winery? Easley Winery is located in downtown Indianapolis at the corner of College Avenue and Ohio Street.

It’s where we crush, press, ferment, barrel age and bottle all of our wines.

Is this a familyowned business?

Easley Winery is in its second generation of family ownership. In 1971 and 1972 Jack and Joan Easley began planting grapes in their vineyard in Leavenworth on the Ohio River.

What types of wines do you sell? We make over 24 different wines every year. From traditional grape wines like Merlot, Chambourcin, Chardonnay and Traminette to mead from honey, and fruit wine made from blueberries and cranberries.

What distinguishes your wine from other Indiana varieties? Quality. Our entire focus from selecting grape varieties and the best sites they will grow on to the right time to pick the grapes and the right yeast to ferment the grapes to the right tanks and barrels to use for certain types of wine, our entire winery staff is constantly striving to make better wine. The attention to details like having the right temperature to ferment the wines and keeping oxygen away from the wines makes a better wine year after year.

Is a 39-yearold professional photographer from Riverside, Calif., who has become a master of his artform with no professional training. He spends most of the year traveling the world with his wife Ariana Love, a camera and camping gear. He also was awarded “Best in Show” at the 2012 festival.

How did you get interested in photography? I’ve always loved hiking and camping since I was a kid and just had an eye for photography. I loved being able to show friends and family what I had seen on different adventures.

Has anyone ever made you feel like photography isn’t an art form? No, but I know some people don’t think of it as an art form, and I don’t mind at all. Everyone has different tastes.

Do you feel your “best in show” win last year was a validation of your work’s artistry? Of course there is some validation whenever I win any awards for my work. I think the best validation and most rewarding experience for me as an artist is from customers who contact me, or see me at a show several years after they’ve purchased one of my images, and say they still love it as much now as when they first bought it.

This food vendor’s booth is a little different in that it doesn’t actually represent a restaurant or business.

Who does Taste of Egypt represent? Our booth is run entirely by volunteers from St. Mary and St. Mark Church with the intention that all of the proceeds raised from our booth go to the building of a new church.

Is this your first time at the festival? This is our second year at the festival, and we are so excited for another fun-filled weekend. We will be bringing a wide range of foods this year including chicken and beef kabobs, grape leaves, hummus and pita and falafel. In order to let our customers sample all that we have to offer, we are offering the ultimate sampler plate this year that gives people a taste of all of these delectable dishes called the “Taste of Egypt Combo.”

Is there a dish that everybody needs to try?

A must-have for anyone who has yet to try it is our gyro, as well as freshly squeezed mango juice.

Is there a more exotic dish available for adventurous people? I would say the most adventurous item off of our menu is the Karkadeh drink made from the hibiscus flower. For those who are willing to try new things, this is definitely a good one to try. For desert we will also have a few different options to satisfy your sweet tooth, including baklava and date-filled pastries.

NextGear steps up for Chaucie’s Place

Reading is fundamental It is our position that reading is fundamental. This editorial page is inflicted with the constant droning of the value of the exercise.

Perhaps it reflects the echoes of an undeniably successful advertising initiative from our youth that hummed – reading is fundamental.

Perhaps it simply suggests a universal truth.

But, studies since that time have indicated the value and impact of the activity.

Yet today, research shows that only a handful of high school graduates ever pick up another book - through the entirety of their lives. Likewise, about half of college graduates ever bother to push their way through a single new book. How can this be? Should it be? Ours are communities ripe with literary opportunity.

So if we have a veritable banquet of literature at our disposal, why is it - as the famed character Auntie Mame might declare - that most poor SOB’s are starving to death?

We are surrounded by opportunity to commune with authors past and present; yet we run from books like some unappealing household chore we wish to avoid. Embrace reading.

Bring it into our households. Make it cool. The benefits to body and mind are measurable.

And, we will all be better for it.

That’s the way it is Commentary by Terry Anker We live in an age where assurance in our institutions has reached an all-time low. Church, government, school and commerce each face its own crisis of confidence. While it is impossible to test the hypothesis that we are approaching some cataclysmic moment never before transcended - as there are few polling results from ancient Roman, Egyptian, Mayan or Imperial Chinese times - it is clear that we no longer carry the confidence in these existing power structures.

Is this kind of critical thinking all bad? How would we have advanced as a civilization if we’d asked Walter Cronkite when he proclaimed at the end of each newscast, “and that’s the way it is” just who had determined the finality of his remark. Should we have inquired what authority decided which news to fit into the 20 minutes or so of regular content on the evening program?

If the show is divided into news, weather and sports – how many minutes of relevant information are we actually getting? And if there are

only 8 minutes or so to report on the important stories happening, can’t we likewise assume that someone - Cronkite or his producer - is making choices as to which topics get the attention brought by a national discussion?

Routinely, readers of this humble column ask why a particular topic made the page and others did not. I appreciate and enjoy the feedback.

But with so little space and time to opine, there is much more left unsaid than is said. Could the same be true for these institutions? Should we be challenging them to be responsive to our interrogatories? Is it better to ask the uncomfortable questions rather than simply walk away losing respect for what seems to be a loss of relevance? We’ll never know unless we take the time to ask, “if that’s the way it really is.”

You might have heard about the windfall Chaucie’s Place received last week, when NextGear Capital stepped in to fill the funding gap for the construction of Chaucie’s Place’s proposed training room. The room was necessitated by increased demands for Chaucie’s Place’s programs, which tells multiple stories about the horrific acts perpetrated on those in our midst and the effectiveness of the programming at the facility. We salute NextGear for its largesse and leadership in the community. Chaucie’s Place is a non-profit child advocacy organization that focuses on the prevention of child sexual abuse and youth suicide with prevention programs for children and adults in Hamilton and Boone counties. NextGear not only applied for funding for Chaucie’s Place through Companies With A Mission Indiana Service Challenge, from which it obtained $5,000, but the company also chipped in $16,000 needed to complete the training-room project. Chaucie’s Place says a number of other companies have committed to the project, offering their services with electrical work, painting and even donating classroom furniture. Construction, which is being managed by Envoy, should begin in October and be completed by the end of the year. (Those wishing to provide support or learn more about Chaucie’s Place prevention programs should visit www.chauciesplace.org.). And speaking of funding, we sincerely hope you will join us at the Treasure Our Children Beach Bash on Oct. 10 at Ritz Charles in Carmel. “Surf’s up” at 5:30 p.m., and the promise has been made to “clear the beach” by 9:30. It’s a tremendously fun evening, with a luau buffet and “appropriate” beachside beverages, as well as silent and live auctions. Put on your favorite tropical attire and sunglasses and help us raise money for a tremendous cause. For more information, please visit the aforementioned website.

Dani, get your gun

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Listen up, people. I have officially channeled my inner Annie Oakley! That’s right, per the recent change to my New Year’s humor Resolutions (the part of Painting Yellow Family Room will now be played by Learning to Shoot a Gun), I sweet-talked my husband, Doo, into to teaching me how to discharge a firearm. Not that he required much cajoling – he’s a deer-hunting junkie and attends the NRA fundraiser each year. Suffice it to say, Doo was absolutely thrilled to “learn me some shootin’ skills.”

We packed up our weapons and headed out to a friend’s piece of property up north. (It just wouldn’t have gone over as well had I taken aim in my backyard … children playing tag, Labradors retrieving balls – can y’all say “incarceration?”)

We’d scoured the city for ammo the day before, only to realize that people are hoarding .22-caliber bullets. (Apparently I’m not the only one preparing for the apocalypse, zombie or otherwise.) That left me with only two options to try, a 12-gauge shotgun and a thirty-ought-six rifle. Now I’m not a wimpy girl, but I do favor my right shoulder, and told Doo that under no circumstance was I going to shoot something with a bruise-to-the-bone kick-back. He patiently suggested the shotgun.

After donning my protective eye- and earware, which I made look amazing by the way,

Doo gave me a thorough lesson on loading and unloading, and of course the obligatory “how not to shoot your eye out” demonstration. My moment of truth had arrived. Noticeably shaking, I raised the gun, aimed in the general direction of a woodpile 25 yards away, and pulled the trigger.

BAAM! An orange clay pigeon disintegrated. Yeehaw! I can shoot! And then I sunk to my knees as the adrenaline surged through me. Holy howitzer, that was scary.

“Again!” Doo ordered, sounding suspiciously like a dojo master. So I stood up, reloaded, fired, and watched a second bird bite the dust. This time, I felt powerful. I’d like to see some lootin’ jerk try for my last can of beans now!

Sensing my increased confidence, Doo nodded toward the big daddy. Bring. It. On. Ten minutes later, I was lining up the cross-hairs of the rifle on a distant bulls-eye. Ka-Boom! “Oooo-uuchhh!”

Not only had my delicate elbow been driven back across a splinter-laden picnic table, but my girly shoulder had taken the full recoil of the shot. I did not care for the sensation.

Humbled, I went back to the 12-guage. And guess what, folks. This Annie Oakley can check another resolution off her list. Boo-yah! Peace out.

INDIANAPOLIS—September 23—Cathedral High School celebrated its 95th anniversary on Thursday, September 12. In honor of that milestone, every student, faculty member, staff member, and administrator, more than 1,300 individuals in all, went out into the Indianapolis community as part of the school’s second annual Day of Service.

During the second annual Day of Service, groups of Cathedral students went to more than 55 different locations throughout the city as part of the school’s service outreach program. Volunteer activities ranged from working in food pantries to assisting residents in memory-care facilities. Students helped churches, non-profits, and organizations such as the American Cancer Society, Big City Farms, Caring Place, the Children’s Museum, Gleaners Food Bank, Habitat for Humanity Restore, Holy Family Shelter, Humane Society of Hamilton County Joy’s House, Miracle Place, St. Luke Catholic Church, St. Matthew School, St. Vincent de Paul Distribution Center, and Volunteers of America, among many others.

On Friday, September 13, James Muller, MD, Cathedral class of 1961 and recipient of the Noble Peace Prize, addressed the student body following a mass celebrating the school’s founding in 1918.

Getting a little culture

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Goodbye summer sun!

Fall has arrived and it’s time to lighten up.

The BBL (Broad-Band Light™) Photofacial can remove dark spots, uneven brown and red patches– and a host of other things the summer sun left behind.

In a few short treatments, you’ll see uneven skin tones lightened, softened and glowing. The BBL™ Photofacial is perfect for the face–but even works on the neck, chest, upper back and shoulders–all the places that were ‘kissed’ by the sun.

“Tasted like wine,” complained another.

“It had a kick to it,” opined a third.

So I’m thinking, what’s the problem here?

Many of the postings are snarky, not befitting yogurt fans who should be more cultured. Comments like: “Chobani is not as sweet as most yogurts, but after a while it grows on you. Literally.” And, “This is the most unique yogurt ever produced. When they made it, they threw away the mold … well, on second thought …”

Ulukaya would not reveal how many complaints they had, but he did say “it was not in the hundreds of thousands.” This brilliant PR response was written for Ulukaya by the same guy who told President George W. Bush to say, “Mission accomplished.”

By the way, Ulukaya is not from Greece, and neither is his yogurt. It’s made in upstate New York. Their plant was an old Kraft factory that once made jalapeño string cheese, the only product that Kraft ever recalled because it tasted like it was supposed to.

So that’s it for all the controversial news in yogurt this week. I didn’t mean to alarm you but I like to stir things up. That’s why my favorite yogurt is Dannon Fruit on the Bottom.

There’s a commercial on TV where Jamie Lee Curtis turns to the camera and reveals to viewers that she is having an “affair” humor with Activia yogurt. This is either a great way to get a yeast infection or an effective way to avoid one. I have no idea which it is. I’m a guy.

The Greek yogurt company Chobani recently got some really bad press coverage when it was revealed their product had some really bad coverage - mold, to be precise. I thought yogurt was already part mold. Or is it bacteria? Fungus, maybe? Don’t tell me. I don’t want to know.

The founder of the company, Hamdi Ulukaya, perfected the recipe for Chobani based on his belief that everyone, regardless of income or location, deserved access to delicious, high-quality yogurt. Except for the delicious part, he says the same thing about health care.

The last yogurt scare in the news was a year ago when a New Jersey firm withdrew salmonella-infected mango yogurt cups from Wawa stores in four states. Like the first moon landing, it was one of those pivotal events - you know exactly where you were when you first heard about it.

On Chobani’s Facebook page, some yogurt aficionados expressed their dissatisfaction with the product.

“Unnervingly fizzy,” said one.

READER’S VIEW Special thanks to CHS administrators Editor, On Sept. 13, our son attended the Carmel High School/Lawrence Central football game at Lucas Oil Stadium with some friends and another mom. During the game, he had a potentially life-threatening allergic reaction and was quickly transported by ambulance to Riley Hospital.

Because my husband and I were not there, school administrators who were at the game were notified. While one accompanied him in the ambulance, another called to keep us abreast of the situation.

When I arrived at the Riley Emergency Room, I was astonished to be met by five CHS administrators: Principal John Williams, Assistant Principal Amy Skeens-Benton, Assistant Principal C.J. Rotary Club of Carmel monthly meeting – Carmel Rotary will hold its monthly meeting from noon to 1:30 p.m. on Sept. 27 at the Mansion at Oak Hill, 5801 E. 116th St. Professional speaker C.J. Coolidge will talk about the topic Four New Rules to Create and Sustain Competitive Advantage. The cost for lunch is $12. Contact Brian Poindexter at bgpoindexter@gmail.com for more information.

Glander, Assistant Principal Karen McDaniel and school resource officer Sgt. Phil Hobson. I was overwhelmed by the concern and personal attention paid to my son by these individuals. Parents are quick to point out when our school staff falls short, but we rarely take the time to recognize when they perform beyond the call of duty. Until now, my husband and I took for granted their presence at evening and weekend school events and never considered that they are essentially “on duty” during these events. We will not soon forget their efforts to ensure our son’s safety and comfort during a very scary situation.

What To Expect: Parenting Coordination A recent, positive trend in Indiana family law cases, as well as several other states, has been the application of a parenting coordinator in high conflict situations. Typically a mental health professional or a lawyer, a parenting coordinator or “PC” is an individual appointed by order of court and charged with managing on-going issues between parents (and others) in cases with constant and substantial disputes involving child custody and parenting time issues. Either party may petition the Court to appoint a parenting coordinator or if the concur that their situation would benefit from the involvement of the PC, the parties can submit an agreement to appoint one, including selecting the PC. What is a PC’s role? The Order of the Court will have considerable detail as to the extent and limitations of the duties of the PC. Depending on the level appointed, the PC may have the ability to act as a communication facilitator, an ongoing mediator and even, essentially, an arbitrator. As a general rule, the PC cannot modify the court order. For example, the coordinator may recommend a different weekly parenting time schedule, however, does not have the authority to modify the amount of time each parent has with the child(ren). All recommendations of the PC require approval of the Court to go into effect and each party has the opportunity to contest these before the judge, if desired. As the goal is to help the parties effectively co-parent and address issues which may arise from time to time, the parenting coordinator typically meets with both parties regularly, receives day-to-day questions and complaints about any aspect of a party's conduct, gather information from outside sources (schools, doctors, counselors, etc.) and works with the parties, first looking for a consensus or at least a basic agreement. If this is not successful, the PC may

choose to inform the parties of what the PC believes is in the best interests of the children in the hopes of pushing the parties to an agreement. Last, the PC may submit their recommendations to the Court if no agreement is possible There are several levels of authority in Indiana for PCs. A Level III Parenting Coordinator is the most frequent choice, holding a high level of authority and may make binding recommendations to the parties on the issues presented for consideration. A binding recommendation may only later be set aside by a Court Order after one party formally objects to the recommendations by filing an objection with the Court.

Further, parties should be mindful that the parenting coordinator can later testify in court about the non-compliance or other issues which may arise during the sessions.

How much will this cost? Parenting Coordinators are most often attorneys and charge parents for the time involved in addressing the issues presented. The typical Court order will have the parents sharing the costs such that they are both “invested” in the process. As part of their authority, however, the PC may have the ability to reapportion costs if one party’s lack of cooperation is clearly a primary issue and the source of a disproportionate amount of the costs.

Sutton Foster to treat Palladium audience

By Jay Harvey • news@currentnoblesville.com

Bringing her time-tested solo show to central Indiana for the first time doesn’t mean Sutton Foster is entering unfamiliar theatre territory. This is not a case of a Broadway diva trailing glitter from the Great White Way into the drab hinterlands before quickly beating a path back to the East Coast.

You could ask the Ball State University community about that. The 38-year-old Broadway star has taught theater and dance students in Muncie for several years, culminating in her being awarded an honorary doctorate from the university in May 2012.

“I hope it will be a lifelong relationship,” said Foster in a phone interview last month just before she began a three-week engagement at New York’s Café Carlyle leading up to “An Evening With Sutton Foster” at the Palladium on Oct. 5.

“I’m teaching a Skype course now with their seniors; we’re in the second week of online interaction. And the week after my Palladium show I’m going up there.”

Presented by Actors Theatre of Indiana, Foster will be accompanied by Michael Rafter, her musical director, at the piano for her Palladium performance. The solo show is a work in progress, shaped with a view toward coming up with her third solo CD. Rafter and Foster also

collaborated on the first two: Wish (2009) and Sutton Foster: Live at the Carlyle (2011).

“It’s been really fun,” she said. “A lot of it is about discovery and new songs. At the Palladium I think we’ll be doing some songs for the very first time that we just started working on.”

Born in Georgia, Foster was enrolled in a dance class at age four as a way to channel some of her excess energy, as she recalled in the commencement address she gave to the class of 2012 at Ball State.

She sort of happened into theater at age 10, landing the title role in a community theater production of “Annie.” That’s when the show-biz bug bit hard, and her theater emphasis throughout her school days bore fruit soon afterward.

The break came when she was tapped for the title role in “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” a stage version of the Julie Andrews film, which became a much-laureled Broadway hit in 2002.

As acclaimed as she’s been for her actingsinging-dancing skills, Sutton harbors a desire to do more dramatic roles, though she can’t divulge what’s in the works. This interest stems from her respect for acting. It’s the one part of their career preparation, she tells music-theater students, that should be the strongest.

“That was my problem at first: I had a lot of energy and a lot of volume and a lot of chutzpah,” she told me. “I could sing loud and impressively, but singing is a bunch of noise and dance

is a bunch of movement. Ultimately you have to be a great actor; without anything behind the sound, it’s meaningless.”

The acting focus is partly why Foster regrets the cancellation of “Bunheads,” the ABC Family series that ran from June 2012 until February with her in a leading role. Critically wellreceived, its end felt premature to just about everyone involved, she said.

“It came down to an interesting thing for me: learning about the TV world,” Foster said. “The show and the network weren’t quite the right mix; it was different from the other shows they were producing.”

When it’s time to move on, Foster has learned, you seek out new opportunities with a willing spirit. The two most important bits of advice she had to share at Ball State seem to have helped her thrive: “Cultivate personal relationships” and “don’t be a jerk.”

Jack Everly has worked for many years to extend the reach of symphonic pops music in both its marketing and artissymphony tic aspects.

The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra’s pops maestro, who also holds corresponding positions in Baltimore and Ottawa, Canada, knows the thrill of conducting hugely popular holiday concerts as music director of two big annual broadcasts on PBS, “A Capitol Fourth” and “National Memorial Day Concert.”

But he also creates and conducts concert programs in cooperation with other orchestras under the Symphonic Pops Consortium, which produces theatrical pops concerts that have racked up more than 250 performances here and in Canada during the past 12 years.

The latest is “On Broadway with Kander & Ebb,” a tribute to the great Broadway musical team of John Kander and Fred Ebb. Everly will lead the ISO and five young veterans of the musical stage in the show’s premiere at Hilbert Circle Theatre Oct. 4 and 5.

Everly credits Kander and Ebb with extending the legacy established by such classic teams as Rodgers and Hammerstein and Lerner and Loewe.

“They continued the evolution of musical theater,” Everly said. “(They) continued to push the envelope right up through ‘The Scottsboro Boys.’”

That 2010 musical was well received by critics and garnered many Tony Award nominations, but it closed after relatively few performances. It stages the story, of nine black teenagers unjustly accused of rape in 1931 and tried in a hostile atmosphere in Scottsboro, Ala. The innovations of Kander and Ebb burst into the public consciousness with “Cabaret” (1966), which presented a different kind of story from what Broadway audiences were accustomed to.

Cabaret is set in Berlin during the fragile Weimar Republic, when tough economic times combined with the rise of the Nazi Party made seedy entertainment an alluring escape.

Everly, whose tribute will focus on “Cabaret” and “Chicago,” paints the picture of what made Kander and Ebb so innovative when “Cabaret” was new.

Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra • Who: conducted by Jack Everly, with guest soloists Beth Leavel, Nick Adams, Ted Keegan, Jessica Rush and Nikki Renee Daniels.

• What: Tribute program to the songs of John Kander and Fred Ebb. • Where: Hilbert Circle Theatre, Indianapolis.

• When: 8 p.m. Oct. 4 and 5.

• Tickets: 639-4300

“You walk into the theater, and you see a big mirror facing you, so you see yourself before anything else,” Everly said, setting the scene.

“Then the ‘Cabaret’ sign lights up, fades out, and then in comes the creepiest guy you can imagine with rouged lips and a white face - that was Joel Grey - telling you that life is a cabaret and that’s where you are. Oh, my heavens, you realize what that means.”

Here are Everly’s soloists for his Kander-Ebb tribute production: • Beth Leavel, who received several awards (including a Tony) for “The Drowsy Chaperone” and three major nominations for her performance in “Baby It’s You.” • Nick Adams, who has been honored for his dancing on Broadway and has a wide range of national theatrical credits on his résumé.

• Ted Keegan, who has played and sung the title role in “The Phantom of the Opera” on Broadway and around the country.

• Nikki Renee Daniels, whose most conspicuous recent Broadway appearance was as Clara, the character who sings “Summertime,” in the revival of Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess.”

• Jessica Rush, currently in the role of Lorraine in the Broadway production of “Jersey Boys.”

Unpack your adjectives at Civic

By Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com

Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre will bring the pop culture hit “School House Rock” to life on the stage Sept. 25 through 28.

For those of us old enough to theatre remember sitting in front of the TV on Saturday mornings learning about a lonely “bill sittin’ on Capitol Hill,” and “Naughty Number Nine,” the show will be a trip down memory lane (as well as a handy refresher on the difference between adverbs and adjectives).

But for a new generation of learners, this interactive musical theatre field trip is actually as much about education as it is entertainment. It even fits within the parameters of the academic standards of the Indiana Board of Education’s K-12 common core requirements.

For the youth who see it, it will be a rousing, colorful romp through some fairly complex subjects including social studies, math and grammar.

“It’s truly fun for kids of all ages,” said Brent Marty, director of music and education at Civic Theatre. “While it’s primarily targeted towards kids, adults will enjoy it too, and the SaturMarty day afternoon performance will fit right into the International Arts Festival. People can take an hour and see the show.”

During the International Arts Festival, members

of Act One, Civic Theatre’s junior ambassadors, will be performing at 10:15 a.m. Sept. 28 on the stage at the corner of Main Street and Range Line Road.

Included in the group will be young members of Hamilton County Special Olympics, who participate in Act One through a new partnership with Civic Theatre called Perfect Harmony.

The theatre has produced “School House Rock Live” several times and audience members will recognize actors Lincoln Slentz, Claire Wilcher, Craig Underwood, Diane Tsao Boehm, Rebecca DeVries McConnell and Phillip Armstrong from various Civic Theatre productions and other local theatre companies.

Bicentennial Train ready to roll news@currentnobleville.com

After a five-year hiatus, history will once again hit the rails as the Indiana Historical Society, in a unique collaboration with The diversion Indiana Rail Road Company and Norfolk Southern Corporation, launches a four-year run of the Indiana Bicentennial Train and its on-board exhibition, The Next Indiana. The Bicentennial Train will travel to four stops in the fall of 2013—Kokomo (Sept. 2628), New Haven (Oct. 3-5), Valparaiso (Oct. 10-12) and Delphi (Oct. 17-19).

“Getting the train on the tracks takes an extraordinary effort on the part of our staff and partners, but the train and its associated activities are sure to generate a lot of enthusiasm for the bicentennial,” John A. Herbst, IHS President and CEO, said. “It is designed to have communities look to the past, and then contemplate Indiana’s future and what qualities will make us more successful.”

The Indiana Bicentennial Train consists of three 65-foot renovated Amtrak freight cars and features a free traveling exhibition, The Next Indiana (designed by the IHS exhibitions team).

Originally known as the Indiana History Train, it has welcomed nearly 58,000 visitors at 24 stops in communities across Indiana from 2004 to 2008.

The Next Indiana exhibition features more than 400 images that give visitors a look at Indi-

But the society has more in stock for The Next Indiana and Indiana Bicentennial Train visitors, including an activities tent and a Creativity Commons tent at each stop. These temporary “depots” provide activities, games and presentations for all ages before and after visiting the main attractions.

The Bicentennial Train and its accompanying activities are all free and open to the public, operating 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day, and every visitor will receive a complimentary pass to visit IHS’s Indiana Experience at the Eugene and Marilyn Glick Indiana History Center. Group reservations are available by calling (317) 232-1882 (space is limited). For more information on the Indiana Bicentennial Train and other IHS programs, visit www.indianahistory.org.

Understand your parents’ feelings Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley Q: I am concerned about my mother having a facelift. She is 57 years old and I am her 24-year-old daughter. aesthetics I know lots of people have facelifts but that is them and this is my mother. I am concerned about its safety and I don’t want anything to happen to her. Like me, my brother and sister don’t understand why she wants this surgery. She is a beautiful woman who may be aging but still looks good to us. My father just shakes his head but is going along with it. What can I say to talk her out of it?

A: While I obviously don’t know your mother or you, I can share some general comments about ‘older’ people having plastic surgery. Children’s concerns about their parents undergoing some form of face or body rejuvenation is actually very common. Many parents have told me that their

children don’t understand or approve of them having elective surgery over something they view as unnecessary. While there may be some understandable medical concerns, most of the apprehension comes from what I often say. “When you don’t have the problem, you don’t see the need.” When one is young and invincible, it is hard to imagine that one day aging and body changes will come knocking. When you develop that sagging neck and jowls or those love handles and stomach that won’t go away no matter what you do, you may have a different perspective on the merits of plastic surgery. I would respect your mother’s desire to look and feel good for herself. A good self-image knows no age limits.

Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis boardcertified plastic surgeon. Comments can be sent to info@eppleyplasticsurgery.com

Home sales are up 18.6 percent Commentary by Jim Litten

With 2,415 pended sales in August in Central Indiana, overall year-to-date home sales are up 18.6 percent compared to Real estate this time period last year, according to statistics compiled by F.C. Tucker Company.

On a monthly basis, August pended home sales rose 3 percent above August 2012, an increase of 71 homes sold in the nine counties that F.C. Tucker tracks. Seven of the nine counties reported increased sales compared to August 2012.

Though August pended home sales slipped slightly in Hamilton County, sales are still trending upward for the first eight months of 2013 compared to the same time period last year.

• In Hamilton County, overall year-to-date home sales climbed to 4,849 - an increase of 842 homes compared to the same time period last year.

• August home sales in Hamilton County dipped 4.7 percent to 484 homes - down 24 homes from August 2012.

• Specifically in Carmel, 116 homes pended in August, a decrease of 42 homes compared to August 2012.

• Available homes are spending less time on the

market in Carmel. For the first eight months of this year, homes spent an average of 77 days for sale. During the same time last year, homes spent 94 days on the market.

• Sales prices slipped in Carmel. Last month, the average sales price fell slightly to $306,045 – down 2.1 percent from August 2012.

• Of the pended August home sales in Carmel, two were priced more than $2,000,000, one was priced $1,000,000 to $1,999,999, 15 were priced $500,000 to $999,999, 26 were priced $300,000 to $499,999, 38 were priced $200,000 to 299,999, 30 were priced $100,000 to $199,999, and four were priced at $99,999 or less.

Investing is a complex undertaking. The supply of investment alternatives is seemingly endless.

Evaluating various alternatives can be quite difficult and very time consuming. Here are the top 10 tax mistakes made by investors according to a survey conducted by financial-planning.com: 1. Short term vs. long term gains: Realized gains on appreciated securities held for one year or more qualify for favorable tax treatment. Longterm capital gain tax rates are significantly lower than short-term rates. Holding a security longer can significantly reduce the tax burden.

2. Foreign stock investments held in a tax-qualified account: Most foreign companies are required to withhold foreign taxes on dividends paid. U.S. investors can claim a tax credit on their tax returns, effectively recouping this lost dividend, but only if the foreign stocks are held in a taxable account.

3. Gold and silver held in a taxable account: Gold and silver are treated as collectibles and therefore are not eligible for capital gains treatment. The federal tax for long-term gains on collectibles is 28 percent.

4. Sale of appreciated securities by elderly investors: The cost basis of appreciated securities is “stepped up” to the current market value upon the death of the owner. Prospective capital gains and related taxes disappear. Conversely, all prospective capital losses will be lost.

Elderly investors should consider being quick to sell stocks with losses and slow to sell stocks with gains.

5. Generating excess unrelated business income in a tax-qualified account: Certain investments, such as Master Limited Partnerships, generate unrelated business income. These investments belong in a taxable account. If they are held in an IRA or other qualified plan, and if the Unrelated Business Taxable Income, or UBTI, is greater than $1,000, then the investor must complete and file a rather complex Form 990 and pay additional income tax.

EXTENDED? STILL TIME FOR 401(k) - Self-employed persons who previously filed an extension can fund their solo 401(k) as late as Oct. 15 and still have it be deductible for tax year 2012. The maximum contribution is 20 percent of the person’s net self-employed income plus up to $17,000 in salary deferrals plus $5,500 in catch-up contributions. The maximum 2012 contribution limit is $50,000 (or $55,500 with catch-up contributions).

The proprietor would have had to adopt the 401(k) plan in a previous year, however, to be able to make contributions now for 2012. That’s because 401(k) plans have to be opened before Dec. 31 of the year in which you want to make contributions. Self-employed persons who don’t already have a 401(k) plan can still make retirement savings contributions through a SEP-IRA. SEP-IRAs can be adopted and funded as late as Oct. 15 for the previous year. - about.com

6. Ignoring local tax laws: In some states, investors cannot carry capital losses forward to future years. On a federal return, a capital loss in one year can be used to offset gains in a subsequent year. But capital losses without offsetting gains in a current year are lost for state tax purposes.

7. Failing to consider a Roth IRA conversion: When a traditional IRA is converted to a Roth IRA, tax is due on the converted amount in the year of conversion. If, for whatever reason, an investor will have low income in a year, this is an ideal time to convert and settle the tax bill on this money at a significantly lower rate than is otherwise expected in the future.

8. Failing to realize capital gains: Low income in a given year can provide an opportunity to save taxes. Long-term capital gain tax rates are progressive; rates increase as taxable income increases. For taxable incomes up to $72,500, joint taxpayers pay no tax on long-term capital gains.

9. Improperly calculating the cost basis for MLPs: Given their unique tax structure, a large portion of a typical Master Limited Partnership distribution is tax-free. This tax-free distribution is considered a return of principal and should therefore serve to reduce the cost basis.

In this case, ignorance may be bliss because the reduction in basis would result in a higher capital gain at sale (unless the IRS comes knocking).

10. Allowing a pension plan to become non-compliant: There are a number of actions or inactions that can put a plan’s qualified status in jeopardy. Oftentimes, an investor will establish a plan with a brokerage firm, and then assume that the brokerage firm is taking care of the ongoing regulatory requirements, including the filing of IRS Form 5500.

ABOUT THOSE GAMBLING LOSSES - “I just lost a bundle in Vegas, but it’s OK - I’m writing off the loss!” Don’t bet on it. When it comes to writing off gambling losses on your income tax return, the IRS is very strict. Every year the IRS receives tax returns from people who claim their gambling income is minimal while their gambling losses are huge.The IRS has a simple rule for gambling losses: Taxpayers can only claim deduction on losses equal to or less than their winnings. For example, you win $500 gambling, but you lose $1,000 in gambling in the same year. Under the rule, you can only claim up to $500 (the amount of your winnings) in losses on your tax return. A word of caution: Gambling income and losses are among the favorite red flags that the IRS looks for when ordering an audit. If you do write off your gambling losses, be sure that you have all your paperwork to back up your claims. - tax.findlaw.com

Telecommuters, are you covered?

Commentary by Jamie Ianigro

Question from Trent R. from Noblesville: My office allows me to work from home when I need to. Are there any insurance Insurance issues I need to worry about?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: If you have an ongoing arrangement that allows you to work at home in any capacity, you will be considered a telecommuter. The special privilege of reduced commuting also brings some special insurance considerations in play.

Bringing your work home with you can have some unintended consequences. The main reason is because most homeowners policies severely restrict or exclude coverage for business property. This is further complicated by the fact that business property is usually pretty valuable. Business Property could include anything your employer provides for you to work at home including computers, printers, phone equipment, valuable paperwork, etc.

Liability issues can also arise when you’re working from home. A typical homeowners policy will completely exclude business related losses.

A social guest slipping and falling is a simple, and common, claim that your homeowners policy will cover. Switch it around and make that guest a business guest and you can have liability issues for you AND for your employer. Liability claims are never fun, but they’re a lot less fun when your homeowners policy excludes them.

Using your personal vehicle for job-related activities, like making deliveries or client calls, can also cause some issues. Most personal auto policies exclude job-related use. Driving to and from work would not fall under job-related use.

Some examples of job-related use would be: picking up a client at the airport, running to the store to restock the office vending machine, driving to and from client appointments, etc.

Now that you have a better idea of what you should be worried about, you should take a minute to document what you do so your employer and your independent insurance agent can make sure you’re covered properly. Make note of the following: • What routine job duties do you perform in your home?

• Are any tasks hazardous?

• Who visits your home because of your job?

• Is a certain part of your home dedicated as a work area/office?

• What equipment is used in your job? Who owns each piece of equipment?

The answers to these questions will be a great start for you and your independent insurance agent to make sure you are adequately protected.

Locating the Burning Bush

Commentary by Donald Knebel

Visitors to Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula can explore one of the world’s oldest monasteries, housing what is claimed to be the burning Travel bush in which God first appeared to Moses. They can then ride a camel up nearby Mt. Sinai to see where God gave Moses the Ten Commandments. But both the bush and the mountain may be in the wrong country.

Exactly where God met Moses has never been clear. One passage in the Hebrew Scriptures locates the site on Mt. Horeb. Such uncertainty over Biblical places was unsettling to Roman Emperor Constantine, who accepted Christianity in about 312 A.D. So he sent his mother, Helena, to the Middle East to determine where events in the Bible occurred.

Helena returned claiming to have found the cave in Bethlehem where Jesus was born, the spot in Jerusalem where he was crucified and the still living bush in Egypt where Moses met God. Constantine ordered a chapel built around Helena’s bush and sixth century Emperor Justinian surrounded the chapel and its famous bush with St. Catherine’s Monastery, now a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Over the years, at least three mountains near St. Catherine’s have been designated Mt. Sinai.

The current bearer of the name was selected in the sixteenth century based on a tradition of the local Bedouins, who now run the camel rides.

St. Catherine’s Monastery (Photo by Don Knebel)

Muslims, who also believe that God delivered his laws to Moses on Mt. Sinai, call this mountain Jebel Mūsa, the mountain of Moses.

Skeptical scholars say Helena made a big mistake. They note the Bible locates Mt. Sinai in an area called Midian, which, unlike the Sinai Peninsula, was never part of Egypt. They claim that Mt. Sinai, if it exists, is probably a volcano in Saudi Arabia.

For visitors to Sinai, whether the mountain called “Mt. Sinai” has anything to do with Moses may not be that important. Following the narrow path toward the summit on the back of a camel is a unique and exhilarating experience in its own right. St. Catherine’s, in addition to its bush, holds some of the oldest existing manuscripts of the New Testament.

The ‘double is’

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: “Thank you for attempting to restore a tiny corner of our language culture. I fear that our language is being lost to lazy meatheads. Your column in grammar guy Current gives me hope.

In the interest of addressing butchered English, I bring to your attention ‘the double is.’ ‘The double is’ most commonly occurs when inartful people flail at beginning a sentence and try to grasp at a parenthetical expression, resulting in, “The thing is is that …”

Another frequent variation would be, “What it is is that … “ The combination of the parenthetical expression and the actual sentence results in two sequential ‘is-es.” Other examples abound.

Please consider providing the readers with your thoughts on the ‘double is.’ Thank you.”

(Mike Shaver) Answer: I think you’ve gotten us most of the way there already, Mike, but I’d be happy to elaborate a bit further.

I found a very interesting article published

by Cambridge Journals tracking the rise of the “double is,” or “double copula,” out of America in the 1970s and 1980s. The author, Dwight Bolinger, claimed that “is is has slipped past the wardens of correct usage” and was becoming popular at all levels. This, written in 1987, seems to have been a prescient statement.

Getting down to brass tacks, though: The

double copula is always nonstandard, and is grammatically incorrect if used following an independent clause.

Let’s look at a quick example of an independent and dependent clause with a double copula.

Independent clause: “The truth is, is that I’m tired.” We can clearly see in writing that a double “is” serves no useful purpose in an independent clause. Why this has become a convention for some English speakers, I have no idea.

Now a dependent clause: “What the truth is is that I’m tired.” Here, “what the truth is” forms a dependent clause serving as the subject of the sentence. The clause encapsulates the first “is,” necessitating a second verb. While this is a nonstandard form, the argument could be made that the double copula is used as an intensifier, or parenthetically to refer to a previous statement (Maybe something like, “What is the truth behind going to bed so early?”). It isn’t grammatically incorrect, per se, but it is awkward and can often feel as though a speaker is stumbling through a sentence, as you’ve pointed out.

My advice: Avoid the “double is” unless you’re writing dialogue for a show about organized crime.

5 steps to be more balanced Commentary by Kristin Boice

Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, anxious and tired? Do you feel out of balance? Are you worrying over things relationships that you cannot control? Are you spending too much time doing things that are not adding value to your life? Are you overscheduled? It might be time to hit the pause button and bring awareness to what is taking up your thoughts, time and energy.

The good news is we can make a choice, change and get back into alignment and integrity with ourselves. If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, then you may not feel centered, grounded or peaceful. You can begin to make a change and feel better. Try these five steps and see if it makes a difference in how you feel.

1. Keep a daily log for one week. Write down what you do during the day, any worries or concerns taking up your thoughts and the amount of time spent on each item. For example, you might write down how much time you spend on Facebook or social media during the day and notice it is taking up way too much time and creating feeling of inadequacy or not feeling good enough. You may decide to limit your time or delete your account.

2. Explore why you do or think these things. Are you doing a lot of things in your life

to feel important, to be noticed, to feel like you matter, to get attention, to belong or be liked?

It’s essential to stop and understand what drives your behavior, choices and thoughts.

3. Write down your values. What is important to you? What matters most in your life? Are you living out these values with your actions and thoughts?

4. Set boundaries for yourself. This can be a gift for you and others. Determine what is out of balance and not aligning with your values. You don’t need to explain yourself when setting boundaries. A simple “no” is enough. We often feel like we need to give a good explanation for why we can’t do something, but it isn’t necessary.

5. Take time for yourself. This is the most important step. It is often skipped because we tell ourselves we don’t have time. We can absolutely make time to take care of ourselves. It is essential we walk, read, journal, be in nature or whatever helps you to slow down and remember what is important. You can recharge your batteries, think more clearly, make better decisions and feel more balanced. You are worth it!

HAIR • SKIN • NAILS • MASSAGE • SUNLESS TANNING BY VERSASPA

TRY THIS LOOK! We think a sultry, smoky look for your eyes is a great way to go glam for an evening event.

Follow these steps to achieve this look: 1. Prep your eye area by applying a touch of concealer to your upper and lower lids. Set the concealer with a brush of loose powder.

2. Line your eyes with a firm eye pencil.

“Stay as close to the base of the lashes as possible,” says Salon 01 Makeup Artist Kelly Lohrman. Once lined, use your finger or small brush to gently smudge the liner up towards the creases of your eye. For a dramatic and bold effect, repeat on your bottom lash line.

3. Set the liner with another swipe of translucent powder again. This will also soften the effect and keep the liner from smudging.

4. Add a dark, matte eye shadow to the lids, blending toward the creases. Pick black for a traditional smoky eye, or use a color like green or purple for a more modern look.

5. Don’t forget to finish off with a couple coats of volumizing mascara.

For more makeup tips and for help finding the makeup shades that are right for you, stop in Salon 01 for a makeup consultation and lesson.

FALL STYLE This Fall, it’s possible to look chic and feel comfy at the same time. The math for this win/win equation is so simple that you won’t even need to dust off your Texas Instrument. Volume on top + Fitted on bottom = Fashion 101. If you can remember this, you’re golden.

The simplest way to achieve this look is with a pair of leggings. Going the legging route leaves you with more options than you might think. While the simple black cotton leggings are certainly a fan favorite, you can easily go for grey or colored ones instead.

Pair them with anything from a chunky cable knit sweater, oversized cardigans or boyfriend blazers.

When choosing accessories for this look, know that the old “less is more” adage no longer applies. Make a statement with your jewelry by choosing pieces that will stand out from your outfit, not just silently complement it. Shop vintage to snag some unique oversized bangles and over-the-top necklaces.

For more up to the minute style advice visit our blog at www.salon01.com/blog.

STRAIGHTEN UP FOR FALL After sporting beach waves this summer, straighten out with a stylish and sleek ‘do. Part hair down the middle and work in a styling crème, such as Salon 01’s “Straight & Smooth”, through damp hair. Blow dry straight and part down the side or middle. If necessary, go over face-framing pieces with a straightening iron.

When straightening hair, keep in mind that your look should be polished, yet natural. Going overboard with a straightener is a no-no.

Illuminating the master bathroom Commentary by David Decker

In a previous column we discussed the steps and considerations that go into creating a beautiful lighting scheme for indoors your master bedroom. Let’s take things a step further and investigate some solutions for the master bathroom.

Because the two rooms are so interconnected, the goal is to create lighting that flows from one room to the next.

Many homeowners install recessed ceiling lights above the mirror, which works just fine.

However, you will get a more even light cast on your face if you are able to install lighting on the sides of the mirror instead of above. The second place that requires task lighting is the shower area. A dedicated feature will help illuminate the entire shower, and the extra light will make it a more energizing place, should you choose to begin your day there.

In the bathroom, ambient light often has to act as a stand-in for natural light, since very few bathrooms have many windows. Mounted ceiling lights are the most common type of ambient light source found in bathrooms. You might want to make a bold or luxurious statement by selecting a pendant or chandelier fixture instead.

Either way, you may want to install dimmer switches on the ambient lights to help you set the mood for a relaxing bath or shower after a long day of work.
