Peek-a-boo at baby boot camp

By Terri Spilman • news@currentincarmel.com

New mom and business woman Kara Babcock combined her passion for fitness and her love of spending time with her son into being the owner new biz of a stroller fitness franchise called Baby Boot Camp. She is now offering classes to residents of Carmel, Fishers and Noblesville.

One of 165 locations across the country, Baby Boot Camp specializes in cardio and strength training for moms of infants and toddlers while providing a learning environment for the children and support group for the mothers.

All the 60-minute fitness workouts are done by the moms while the kids are in their strollers with exercises like peek-a-boo squats, pumpkin book burpees or bicep curls while saying the ‘A,B,C’s.’

“It keeps the kids’ attention and it’s fun for them,” said Babcock, who also serves as class instructor.

“The kids build up little friendships as well so they look forward coming to the classes because they have their friends too.”

Babcock is certified through the American Academy of Exercise and has undergone additional training

through Baby Boot Camp to meet the specialized needs of prenatal and postnatal moms all the way up to moms of four year-olds.

“I had to get all my certifications and that’s what makes us unique compared to other programs,” Babcock said. “You have to do intense training to make sure you are teaching proper form and that the moms are doing the right things no matter which stage they are prenatal or postnatal.”

Baby Boot Camp will initially be held at two different locations with consideration for additional times and locations based on demand. Classes kick off this week, and are every Monday and Wednesday at 9:30 a.m. at St.Vincent Fishers with a 9 a.m. class on Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning Oct. 9 at Keystone at the Crossing.

Moms can try the class at no charge and can also participate in a stroller friends playdate group if they want to bypass the exercise and just want to connect with other moms. Babcock is planning to offer a Strollga – stroller yoga course sometime in the first quarter of 2015.

For more information or to enroll in a class, visit www.babybootcamp.com.

Carmel resident Dean Phillips was named as Caregiver of the Year during the national convention for Home Care Assistance, a award non-medical, in-home care group for seniors, that aims to find people doing work in the field of senior living facilities.

Phillips was selected from the more than 4,000 caregivers across North America who were in the running for this award.

“He really is an example of how life is a rich, ongoing journey, and you simply can’t predict where you will find fulfillment. He also defies the stereotype of professional caregivers as young

women - in reality it's a field in which there are many opportunities for people of all ages and from all walks of life,” said Lauren Gard, the communications specialist at Home Care Assistance.

Gard said Phillips was selected for his phenomenal work with clients over the course of his two years working with the elderly, and because he truly embodies a mission to change the way the world ages.

“Dean’s career in caregiving came later in life,” Gard said. “He’d worked as a tire salesman before his mother became ill with a brain tumor. He became her full-time caregiver and after she passed he realized he’d found his calling in life, and so he joined Home Care Assistance to help others.”

Prepared for disaster

By Terri Spilman • news@currentincarmel.com Prepare for the worst, hope for the best.

That’s the motto of the Hamilton County FEMA CERT (Citizens Emergency Response Team), which is a emergency response group of community volunteers who are trained to be immediate responders in their neighborhoods until first responders can arrive on the scene in the event of a natural or manmade disaster situation.

CERT is a nationwide program that is implemented at the local level as part of the Citizens Corps under FEMA and Homeland Security that also includes such programs as Neighborhood Crime Watch.

According to www.ready.gov, “Forty-six percent of individuals expect to rely a great deal on people in their neighborhood for assistance within the first 72 hours after a disaster.”

“Disasters turn out to be a brutal equalizer in our world,” said Jon Baldwin, who is the Hamilton County program coordinator and only CERT certified instructor in the county. For Baldwin, disaster preparedness is a way of life as he is also a veteran of Desert Storm and served for 22 years in the Army Reserve and 11 years in the Indiana Guard Reserve.

Members of the FEMA CERT team in Carmel help to raise awareness during their neighborhood crime watch programs. (Submitted photo)

Baldwin and his cadre of volunteers work closely with the fire department, police department, Red Cross and other community agencies and services such as food pantries in the training and implementation of their emergency response plan.

Volunteers go through the CERT training program for the benefit of emergency preparedness for themselves, their families and their neighborhoods. In the event of a major disaster, the goal is for each neighborhood to have a CERT trained responder who can provide basic medical care, put out small fires, turn off gas lines, triage patients according to severity of injury and give first responders an assessment of the situation.

Carmel resident Charlie Demler learned about the CERT program through a friend and thought it was a logical extension of his role as neighbor-

hood watch captain. He was called to service last winter during the polar vortex when the Red Cross set up a shelter at Carmel High School for those without power.

For Demler, being a CERT volunteer is a family affair with, his wife, son, daughter and ex-wife all having gone through the training program.

Over the years, an estimated 200 people have been CERT trained in Hamilton County which has a population of 290,000 and growing according to Baldwin, however, more volunteers are needed.

“It’s not a matter if something bad happens, it’s just a matter of when. I don’t think that’s screaming doomsday.”

For more information on CERT training or other volunteer opportunities with the EMA, call 770-3381.

IFI names Delph top lawmaker

TOO MUCH DEBT? NOT ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY IT?

news@currentzionsville.com The Indiana Family Institute marked its 25th anniversary with a keynote address by former board member, and nowaward Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, as it also honored State Sen. Mike Delph with its “Legislator of the Year Award,” during the annual Friends of the Family fundraising dinner at the Ritz Charles in Carmel on Sept. 18.

“They are expecting roughly 500 attendees at the Ritz Charles,” stated Delph in an e-mail to Current, before the event. “This is the same dinner where former Colts Coach Tony Dungy was awarded the Friend of the Family Award for holding similar cultural views as me based upon time tested biblical principles a few years back.”

This year’s gathering featured a keynote address by the Governor, who served on the IFI Board of Directors with his wife, Karen, in the early ‘90s. IFI was led at that time by Bill Smith, who later served as the Governor’s Congressional and then Gubernatorial Chief of Staff. Bill Smith will also take part in the anniversary celebration along with Kokomo attorney and former State Sen. James Butcher, who has served as an IFI director since its formation in late 1989.

Prior to the dinner at a reception for key sponsors, IFI presented Delph with its “Legislator of the Year” award for his outstanding work to strengthen Hoosier families. The only prior recipient of the award, in 2011, was State Rep. Eric

Delph’s support of the proposed marriage amendment as well as his commitment to religious liberty and legislative ethics reform were among the factors cited by IFI in making this selection. His service to the nation as a U.S. Army officer was also cited by IFI as a factor making Delph a well-informed legislative leader.

“We value and respect Sen. Delph’s unswerving commitment to faith, family and freedom, the pillars of what makes Indiana such a special place to call home,” said IFI President Curt Smith.

“Delph’s convictions, character and commitment to uphold these Hoosiers ideals makes him an ideal honoree,” added Ryan McCann, the group’s policy director.

Book traces CDC roots

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Carmel High School has produced a state record 119 Indiana High School Athletic Association team titles along with many state crowns in non-IHSAA sanctioned book signing sports. Dan Chapman wanted to make sure the Carmel Dads’ Club gets proper credit for its part in that high school success story.

“I felt like no one understands where all the success comes from and someone has to tell the story of where it all began at least from a historical standpoint,” Chapman said. “Back when it started there was no money because Carmel was a small town. People mistakenly think it started because of corporate monies. But that’s not what happened. Everyone came together because they wanted their kids to have a great opportunity to play sports.”

Chapman and Pam Otten have produced a book “A Town of Champions: A History of the Carmel Dads’ Club” detailing the formation. There will be a reception and book signing with Dick Nyers at 4 p.m. on Oct. 4 at the Carmel VFW Post 1003, 12863 N. Meridian St. Nyers, then the Carmel High School football coach, was instrumental in the development of the club.

Otten and Chapman both graduated from Carmel High School in 1970 and still live in Carmel.

Chapman, a former CDC player and coach, said he had compiled the notes but confessed he’s not a

very good writer.

“I wrote the first chapter and thought at this rate it is going to take me 10 years,” Chapman said.

So Chapman asked Otten, who had retired as a full-time Carmel Elementary school teacher, if she would help.

The Carmel Dads’ Club started in 1958 and teams began competition was in 1959. Nyers, who coached 10 seasons at Carmel before leaving to become a Ball State assistant in 1968, helped get the club started, seeing it as valuable feeder system.

The book costs $14.95 with $1 from each sale going to Carmel Dads’ Club for a scholarship in Nyers’ name and $1.05 to the Carmel Clay Historical Society. For information on ordering the book, e-mail Chapman at DCHAPMAN.RE@aol.com.

“I knew Tom was stubborn enough to overcome the setbacks of his stroke, he just needed the right encouragement.”

Building a bench

By Joseph Knoop • news@currentincarmel.com

Tom’s recovery from the stroke was challenging for both of us. I never doubted that he would walk again—I worried about finding him the best care possible. I was immediately comfortable with the caring staff at Westminster Village North. With each visit, I saw Tom getting stronger. The therapist constantly encouraged him, and kept me involved in his care. Before long, Tom was back on his feet, thanks to his determination and the wonderful staff that treated us like family.

Two Carmel High School students are organizing a competition for local designers and architecture enthusiasts to build the city’s next big casual meeting place. education The Build-a-Bench contest, organized by Carmel High School student group Design for CHS, begins Oct.13 and ends Dec. 21. According to the group’s organizers, the competition is designed to counter rising civil unrest by encouraging conversation between people of different backgrounds and cultures.

Benches, which will be judged by Design for CHS co-founders Vikas Maturi and Alex Yom, as well as Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard, will be evaluated on their ability to fulfill the competition’s goal. Creativity, aesthetics, cost-effectiveness, and a general “fit” with Carmel’s culture will also factor into judging.

The idea formed after both students met with Brainard over the summer to discuss potential

ways to improve the city.

Both Yom and Maturi have plans to contact local architecture firms for assistance in judging design, practicality, and required materials.

“I really think the competition is meant to bring people together,” Maturi said. “As society modernizes, we’re often in our own bubble. We’re looking for an interesting design that will inspire conversation.”

Design for CHS was originally founded to design measures to counter social problems, including bicycle safety and water wastage.

A winning selection of one to three benches will be selected and constructed around Carmel.

Yom said at least one location has been selected, at the Carmel Rotary block.

The contest is open to legal residents of Carmel or the Indianapolis Metro area, and of any age.

Winners will get the chance to work alongside the City of Carmel and/or local engineering or architecture firms to construct their creation.

Is 75-25 split the new standard for development?

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com It appears that every developer in Carmel seems to be asking for a similar deal when it comes to using tax increment finance funds to begin their projects. development The trend got started when Edward Rose asked to create a new TIF district for their project The District, a development near the Old Meridian roundabout that features condos, senior living, some retail and a hotel. The developer requested that it could keep 75 percent of the TIF money raised from the project in order to pay back a bond that it would secure, which would propose no risk to the city.

It was viewed by many as a win-win situation. Even the most fiscally conservative city councilors voted in favor of the project because they said it’s better to at least get some of the TIF money. Plus, it was viewed as a better alternative than the city backing a bond in order to borrow money to construct buildings and parking garages. If the project is a bust and it doesn’t increase property values in the area, then the developer wouldn’t receive enough TIF money to pay back its bond. So, in essence, the developer is betting on itself to succeed.

But now that Edward Rose was approved, many other projects are seeking a similar deal.

Justin Moffett wants to use TIF money to help

building a parking garage for his first construction as a part of the Midtown Plan.

Pedcor wants to create five TIF districts and seek a similar TIF split in order to begin construction on many buildings for Carmel City Center phase two. This includes another parking garage.

The Nash building, part of the City Center, was the first project to receive this 75-25 split.

Keystone Realty Group – developers behind Sophia Square – is looking for 75-25 TIF splits for an upcoming project called Olivia on Main, which was originally named Sophia Pointe.

Olivia on Main would be a five-story building with more than 200 rental units and a ground floor of retail. If they receive the 75-25 split, it could mean $3.8 million in revenue for the project. It would sit on 5.3 acres just southwest of the roundabout at Old Meridian and Main Street.

It would feature 14,000 square-feet of groundfloor retail and 300 parking spaces with 200 luxury residential units.

So, why is this 75-25 split the new model for public support for private development?

“It’s good because you’re getting about four to five times as much because of the parking structure,” Mayor Jim Brainard said. “You can make the argument that 25 percent is about what we would have gotten if we allowed one-story sprawl. The County Option Income Tax is about five times as much. We know that.”

To Brainard, it’s simple: taller buildings – usually no taller than five stories is what he wants – means more property tax per square foot.

Parking garages are preferred to larger, Wal-Mart style parking lots.

Some city councilors, such as Council President Eric Seidensticker, have raised the question, “Why can’t developers pay for these projects themselves?”

Seidensticker said he’s not against using TIF money to support redevelopment, but he said it might not be needed for every single project and there might be some debate on the amount of the split. Should it always be 75-25? Why not 50-50?

“We’ll look at these proposals closely, but we need to be very careful how we use our TIF dollars,” he said. “We do need to collect TIF dollars because the redevelopment commission has substantial debt to pay off.”

City Councilor Rick Sharp agrees that TIF money can’t simply be given away, but projects like Justin Moffett’s Midtown revitalization are appealing to him because there’s a significant financial investment from the developer in Carmel.

“It’s welcome to see a private company vote with their dollars to support this area,” Sharp said.

Sharp said it also has to be considered how much TIF money is raised and can it actually cover the expected costs.

11555 N. Meridian St. | Suite 530 | Carmel, IN 46032

There are many couples in the state of Indiana who cohabitate either because of the law or by personal choice. These couples often conduct themselves in similar ways to married couples such as having children and owning real and personal property. The separation or “uncoupling” of these cohabitating couples can require legal gymnastics under legal theories certainly not intended nor equipped to handle the personal and family issues of a cohabitating couple.

It is surprising that in the 21st century, the laws regarding separation and dissolution have not evolved to address cohabitating and same-sex couples – even legally married same-sex couples. Creative application of partition, breach of contract, and unjust enrichment legal theories may mean something to lawyers, but to the couple with children, a house, retirement and financial accounts, life insurance policies, furniture, and a dog, these theories are confusing and irrelevant.

As far as these couples are concerned, their family issues are the same as the divorcing heterosexual couple next door. For attorneys who work with families, whether heterosexual, cohabitating, or same sex, the application of “non-family” law and legal theories to families is far less than ideal.

Indiana statutes related to children are applied freely to any kind of family – custody, parenting time, and child support are easily addressed under Indiana law. However, division of property and debts requires the creative and legal gymnastics of experienced lawyers. It is important to start the process of good legal footing with an attorney who is knowledgeable in the area of same-sex and cohabitating family law issues.

Collaborative divorce concepts can be applied to any kind of family law case, and effectively address issues in same-sex and cohabitating couples just as in heterosexual–married couples.

The collaborative team works with the parties to address all of the needs of the family: child custody, child support, parenting time, division of property, payment of debt, and allocation of retirement and financial assets. Collaborative divorce puts the law into the proper perspective for all couples. Through collaborative practice, divorcing same-sex and cohabitating couples can agree to apply dissolution statutes as guides to resolution of their issues while a judge in a traditional litigation case may not. This is good news for uncoupling the same-sex or cohabitating couples!

Uncoupling occurs in all kinds of couples whether heterosexual, same-sex, married, or unmarried. In all uncoupling cases, there are personal as well as financial issues that must be properly addressed. Any person who is in the process of uncoupling deserves the best possible representation. Whether the couple chooses collaborative practice, or finds themselves in litigation, knowledge and experience of legal issues is necessary to guide same-sex and cohabitating couples through the uncoupling process.

The Palladio Villa near Venice, Italy was designed by Andrea Palladio, and was used as inspiration for the Palladium in Carmel. (Submitted photo)

The following question was sent to editor Sophie Pappas.

If you have a question for the editor please email it to sophie@youarecurrent.com Q: Dear editor, my first trip to the Palladium will be in November to see Tony Bennett. A tie is never my first choice, but sometimes a necessity. Can you please educate me on the proper dress code for this event?

A: Your question poses an interesting dilemma in today’s contemporary culture. While many of us have no problem wearing jeans and a casual shirt to restaurants, or even church, if you visit The Palladium, some choose put a little bit more effort in. The Palladium’s design is based off of Renaissance-era architect Andrea Palladio’s famed villa near Venice. A trip to Carmel’s Palladium will, no doubt, take you back to images of old-world Italy. (Not to mention the interior of the building, which is breathtaking in and of itself.)

The Palladium does not have a dress code posted for its shows.

Businesses say #31 Bites helps – but only a little

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

20 West Main St., Carmel, IN 317.843.8380 • mudbugscajuncafe.com

After months of construction on U.S. 31 took its toll on local businesses, Carmel leaders launched an initiative road construction called 31 Bites, which aimed to drive customers to those struggling restaurants and merchants.

Orange wristbands were handed out and Carmel residents were encouraged to eat at affected restaurants and post photos of their food on social media sites.

And two months after its launch, business owners say the campaign has helped –but only a little.

“We certainly appreciate what they city has done to help us and 31 Bites has helped us some,” said Damon Sinkovics, manager at J. Razzo’s, an Italian restaurant affected by construction. “But it’s still slow. My business is down and so we look forward to the roads opening back up.”

It’s hard to measure how much the citybacked plan has helped. Most of the evidence is anecdotal, short of asking a business owner to open up their spreadsheets.

“Based on feedback we have received, we believe that customers increased their usage of the restaurants,” Mayor Jim Brainard said. “We suspect that if you ask the people who were tweeting pictures of their kids wearing the

orange wristbands if they would have visited those restaurants without the campaign, we’d guess the answer would be ‘no.’”

Dan McFeely, a city consultant who worked on the project, said no formal surveys have been conducted just yet, but there are some indicators that it’s been successful.

McFeely said the city has received appreciative phone calls from businesses. There have been 137 tweets through Sept. 11 with the hashtag #31 Bites. He said there were dozens of pictures were posted, one local food blogger

did several special Friday blogs on the project, a video was made by a local person and shared on social media and one store even offered discounts to those who wore the wristbands.

But other city officials question whether the campaign has made a significant impact.

“It’s clever. I’ll give it that,” City Councilor Rick Sharp said. “I wish it would have started sooner.

It also somewhat neglects the retail establishments since it focuses so much on restaurants. I was in a retail shop around there today that has modified its store hours and made them shorter.”

Sharp said he returned an item at a retail store near U.S. 31 and the manager told the employee assisting Sharp he should have only offered store credit so the store could keep the revenue.

“I joked, ‘And the state of Indiana missed out on five dollars and fifty one cents,’ and the manager said, ‘I could care less about the state of Indiana. I’m so mad at them for what they did to my business,’” Sharp recalls.

And while Sharp said he believes the campaign was started too late, others think the timing was perfect.

“Some people say this is too late but I disagree,” City Councilor Sue Finkam said. “I think doing it midway through the closure is perfect timing because you received attention at the start of construction and midway is a great reminder to people to keep supporting these businesses.”

into the Should Carmel buy on plan? ti ra o p s n a tr d e s o p pro “There’s no marketing plan and there’s no money for a marketing plan,” said Carmel City Councilor Rick Sharp, about the commuter bus system. (Stock Photo)

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Most people don’t think of Carmel as a city that relies on public transportation, but elected officials are closely looking at ways to improve mass transit.

Bus riders filled a recent Carmel cover story City Council meeting to express their support for the public transportation system – an operation that caterers to a small number of riders and is unable to stay in the black.

It’s a tricky issue. It’s seen as a necessity for workers that don’t own cars and the business owners that rely on those employees. For the other taxpayers that never use the service, it’s seen as a costly failed experiment.

There’s been plenty of action lately in trying to improve the service.

Earlier this month city council approved a $30,000 subsidy to the Indy Express bus to keep the operation afloat despite the fact there is no business plan.

Then, Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard and Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard announced a $2 million federal grant, which actually is taxpayer money, to help kick off the first leg of Central Indiana's $100 million regional transportation system.

And there’s talk of a looming commuter tax that could affect local businesses, including those in Hamilton County.

But others are skeptical. Fred Glynn, Jr., who recently made mass transit one of his issues in his successful primary run for Hamilton County Council, said he feels the need can be overstated.

“If we can’t fill up the buses that we have now, what makes you think we need more?” Glynn said. “I think you have to change the culture and involve the private companies in order to make this work.”

NO MARKETING PLAN

When the city council approved funding for the service, there were reservations. There aren’t enough riders to support the operation financially and there appears to be no plan to attract more riders. Fewer than 60 people ride from downtown Indianapolis to Carmel every day.

“There’s no marketing plan and there’s no money for a marketing plan,” councilor Rick Sharp said. “So it’s very disconcerting. It becomes an unfair subsidy for a very small number of residents.”

Councilor Kevin Rider said he would like to see the service act more like a business.

“I’ve been in business for 32 years and you always have to be prepared for changes,” he said. “It’s a bad idea if we don’t have a good business plan. That’s a fact. We can’t continue to throw money at something that will lose money forever.”

GRANTS AND TAXES

One of the complex parts about expanding public transportation is that it has to be a joint effort between Marion

and Hamilton counties since routes cross county lines.

U.S. Rep. Andre Carson, (D-Indianapolis) helped secure the $2 million Transportation Investment Generating Economic Growth grant, which requires a $1 million matching grant from participating cities.

But in Carmel, some are worried that eventually there will be new taxes to pay for the project.

State Rep. Jerry Torr, (R-Carmel) sponsored successful legislation to enact a statewide mass transit plan that some say opens the door for more taxes. He insisted the funding would come from income taxes and user fees, but the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce has been pushing for a commuter tax since 2006 and will push for it in 2015.

Brainard said he is against taxing businesses to support the system and believes it could hurt economic growth.

“I think any commuter tax is a really bad idea,” he said.

“Why set up an artificial barrier? Indianapolis already has higher taxes than Carmel does. Substantially higher. And so if this tax went into effect then some business owners might want to move their business from Indianapolis to Carmel to avoid paying higher taxes. But we don’t want that because we’re thinking of what it would do to the region as a whole.”

Councilor Ron Carter said he’s concerned that such a tax would benefit cash-strapped Indianapolis more than Carmel.

“I’m not really enamored to make it easier to ship more dollars in taxpayer funding down to Marion County,” he said.

To read an extended version of this story and read the history about how bus systems in Indianapolis have traditionally lost money, visit currentincarmel.com.

NEED FOR MASS TRANSIT?

Since Carmel statistically is more affluent than Indianapolis, many people assume that everyone owns a car here. But Brainard said it’s a flawed assumption that only people who can’t afford cars take the bus.

“You can get an extra hour or two or work done,” he said.

“Nobody knows whether you sent that email on a train or on a bus.”

Timothy Kopf of Carmel and a user of Indy Express said he chooses the bus for that reason.

“I’m one other person who’s not on the road tempted to be using our devices while driving,” he said.

• This month, Carmel City Council voted to give the business $30,000 to maintain routes through December.

• Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard wants to move forward with a $1.2 billion IndyConnect mass transit plan, beginning with a

route connected to Westfield.

• At this time, fewer than 60 people take the bus from downtown to Carmel every day.

Mom’s race against the clock

Onward to Geist our company goes

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

We’re extremely excited to announce our latest plans for expansion, this time into the Geist market. With an anticipated launch in the first quarter of 2015, we’re fast at work finalizing the staffing and more pin-pointedly familiarizing ourselves with the area. We will deliver by U.S. Mail every Tuesday to 11,306 high-income, high-education households that “hug the lake” (and beyond). The move into the northeastern market comes at the behest of advertisers large and small. We’re happy to answer their call and are eager to serve a new readership and market. The launch will bring to 119,439 the number of households Current serves.

You can’t make up this stuff: • Last week, we read with interest about how a federal judge ordered the state of Alaska to increase outreach to Native American voters with limited English proficiency - because, you know … democracy, right?

This, of course, led us to ask: Limited English proficiency? Doesn’t that pretty much sum up what is lacking amongst the majority of the United States’ population? The days of “grammar school” have gone the way of the running board, we’re afraid, and it shows so horribly in everyday conversation, writing, speech and media.

• Then comes the recent “60 Minutes” report about how scammers have made small fortunes by taking advantage of the joke that is the Internal Revenue Service. It seems the opportunists – and we’re talking about the scammers here, not the IRS – sent in fraudulent tax returns with anticipated refunds in the low four figures. Well, they received the checks, because there was no checks-and-balances protocol to prevent it from happening. None of this probably would be the case had former IRS chief Lois Lerner’s hard drive not been wiped clean. What’s that, you say? You forgot all about the IRS scandal involving Lerner?

We’re sorry to learn that, because that’s exactly what the IRS was hoping would happen.

Envying aspiration Commentary by Terry Anker In preparation for an upcoming trip to Mumbai, the film “Slumdog Millionaire” finally made it onto my Netflix queue. It tells the story of a young, desperately unprivileged boy struggling to find his way to adulthood with only his labor, his brother and his unanswered love to help him survive his abysmal circumstance. As a matter of course, films designed to morosely pull at our heartstrings stay at the bottom of my list – instead preferring accounts of overcoming and aspiration to those envy and despair. Happily, this Millionaire always found a way to consider the glass half full and the movie deserves its many accolades.

But why did he, and others that this fictional character is intended to represent, emerge from the cesspool that was his life to become a noble hero? When some might blame what they perceive as the diminished adherence to traditional family and religious organizations for the slide and others might argue that a fat welfare state incentivizes dependence rather than responsibil-

ity, Jamal, the protagonist, clung to his belief that his life, his little insignificant life, could be filled with happiness – and to quote a phrase, the pursuit of happiness filled him with hope.

America was founded upon a promise that, for those inclined, one had a right to pursue happiness. All of the machinations of today’s envious “rights” culture aside, there was a time in our history of aspiration. Over these many years, I’ve been fortunate to visit some of the world’s wealthiest and poorest places. Sure, there are scores of important factors that contribute to one’s position on the continuum; but aspiring to be more, not envying those who may be, is a common antidote to misery. Jamal inspires us to aspire to a better future and not to seethe in envy over a bitter past.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK Don’t hold on to anger, hurt or pain.

They steal your energy and keep you from love.

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Of late, I have not been the best mother in the world, so of course, when I finally have an opportunity to be one, nothing goes my way.

Take yesterday, for example. humor I was trying desperately to make it to my twins’ cross country meet. I’d already worked some spectacular whiteboard magic to make my attending the race even a possibility, including but not limited to a last-second carpool for my youngest. But as I headed out, I realized even those schedule changes may not be enough.

It was 5:09 p.m., and I was 6.7 miles from the course. My GPS had me arriving at my destination one minute before start time, at 5:29.

But those 6.7 miles went directly through town on a two-lane road generously sprinkled with stop signs. Did that ETA take into account the notoriously-bad, eastbound rush-hour traffic?

I drove a whole mile before I reached a dead stop and the conclusion that no, GPS was not figuring in a bumper-to-bumper speed. Argh!

Now my phone said I wouldn’t be there until 5:31.

The cussing started soon thereafter, as idiot after idiot made left-hand turns. Didn’t these people realize my guilt assuagement plan was rapidly falling apart? And my stupid phone kept recalculating! 5:34. 5:35. Satellites are now dead to me.

As 5:30 came and went and I was still stuck on the road, I did the math. I knew my daughter would take around 18 minutes to finish, but my son would probably be done in 14. If they started on time, I might miss his whole race.

Come on!

I finally arrived at the school at 5:36 p.m.

And naturally the only available parking was in the farthest lot by the buses, a fact that the woman in front of me couldn’t quite come to grips with. “Move, lady!” I shouted. I eventually whipped around her, threw my van into park, and then sprinted as best I could in my skirt and heels while navigating a minefield of mud puddles.

At last I reached the course, already filled with middle-school runners, but could find no sign of my twin-kies. Was I too late? Had all my effort been in vain? [Enter Despair, stage left.] And then my son rounded a turn, heading straight for me. His face lit up when he realized I’d come, as did my daughter’s when she jogged by shortly thereafter. I’d battled schedules, traffic, and the indecisive grandma, but I’d made it. Best mother in the world? Probably not. But I was a good one on that afternoon.

Fishers Renaissance Faire celebrates 10th year

By Ann Craig-Cinnamon • ann@youarecurrent.com

There’s only one event in this area that can boast this lineup: swordplay, jousting, Queen Elizabeth (the first), knighting ceremonies event and Shakespeare vignettes. Yes, it’s time for Fishers’ Renaissance Faire.

Ren Faire is celebrating its 10th anniversary on Oct. 4 and 5, which is significant for an event that had trouble finding a home in its first year. The original intent was to come up with a signature event for the non-profit organization Fishers Sister Cities which, among other things, exchanges students and teachers between Fishers and Billericay, England. Diane Eaton, then-president of Sister Cities and committee member Walt Bagot came up with the idea of a Renaissance Faire. There are many around the nation, but there was nothing like it in our area. After several years in different places including Conner Prairie, the Ren Faire now makes its home at Saxony Village at 131st Street and Olio Road.

The faire may have had trouble finding a home at first, but it didn’t have any issues finding attendees and was a success from the start. According to Ren Faire Executive Director Adam Fivush, it continues to increase in popularity and is second only to Fishers Freedom Festival in attendance.

“The faire has been growing steadily each year.

The demographics have changed significantly. The first faire was a local event attended by mostly Fishers residents. In year eight, 70 percent of the patrons did not come from Hamilton County,” he said, adding that people come from all over the state including 7 percent from outside Indiana.

“The faire is becoming a tourist attraction and is the only event in Hamilton County that brings in so many patrons from out of the area.”

Fivush said the event is unique because it is the biggest one-weekend faire in the country and rather than being a business like most are, it is a fundraiser.

Ren Faire has 250 costumed characters that will play roles during the festival. A five-year participant, Linda Eberharter is playing Queen Elizabeth this year.

“I have always been interested in this time period, so the event that happens not just here but all over the country intrigues me,” she said. “It’s a piece of history, along with the culture that I think just oozes from the entire production.”

Douglas Whisman, a Ren Faire committee member, said there are some interesting historical facts about the faire.

“It incorporates real places and people (historical figures) in Billericay, England. Examples of this: The (wishing) well at the faire is a reference to the real well in the middle of Billericay, England,

(which) dates back to Roman times,” he said. “The beer tent is named The Red Lion, which really exists in Billericay. The cast of characters are also named after real people who lived several hundred years ago in Billericay. The historical register was searched in Billericay for people of that era. Their names were used by our cast. So those are a few examples of the historical aspect of our faire.”

Participants said the event brings something different to Fishers. “(It’s) a weekend of fun for the whole family; unless it rains; then it brings a lot of people in strange, wet outfits,” performer Tim Hoke said.

“Anyone interested in history or gets a thrill at fantasy or knights in shining armor, and an overall magical feel, will have a ball at the faire. Additionally there are numerous artisans with unique items for sale. And the food is fantastic,” Eberharter said.

Ten years later, Eaton is pleased with how the event has turned out.

“I think it grew into tourism. I think it grew into creativity and opportunities for our community and it’s grown into helping our community and bringing people here from England,” she said.

Going French for Fair Haven

By Amanda Foust • news@currentincarmel.com

through the services her organization offers.

This event takes all year to prepare in order to find quality merchandise and plan all the event details. The market provides an atmosphere of a market you would find on the streets of Paris.

All the dedicated planning is worth it to Luebker because of the impact she knows Fair Haven has on all involved.

She said, “I have witnessed first hand the increased hope and recovery when patients have the loving support of family, friends and a compassionate community.”

This year is the second Annual Parisian Flea Market. The merchandise for the market is selected by committee members as well as provided by Masters Jewelers and Twigs. Fine wine and hors d’oeuvres plan to be served at the event while shoppers choose from an array of unique items. Funds raised go to the support of Fair Haven services.

This event will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 10 and Oct. 11, at Clay Terrace Shopping Center.

Parisian Flea Market tickets are $5 per person (16 and under free). Tickets may be purchased at the door or online at www.FairHavenFoundation.org or by calling (317) 348-3688.

Charming, vintage, and a one-of-a-kind shopping experience awaits residents of Carmel. Fair Haven is offering unique shopping event through the Parisian Flea Market at Clay Terrace to help benefit the Fair Haven Foundation. New accessories, furniture and gift items are a distinguished part of what the market is offering to attendees as well as a collection of art, home decor, pottery, accessories, furniture and more.

Fair Haven is an organization that strives to serve others going through difficult times. Diann Luebker, Parisian Flea Market Chair, said: “Fair Haven serves to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ during the storms of serious health issues and offers housing to patients and their families at no charge.”

The organization calls itself the “home away from home.” This home allows out-of-town patients to receive the sometimes urgent care that is needed while keeping families together during a difficult time.

Luebker’s role is to facilitate the creation of the event while also cultivating relationships

Fringe revisited - Theatergoers who couldn’t hit every show during the IndyFringe Festival in August can come to “Fringe Revisited” from 6 to 9 p.m. Oct. 3 at Nickel Plate Arts, 107 S.

What people want to eat and drink Tailgating by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Last week we answered the age-old question about what to serve as your main course in warm weather. Your overwhelming choice was the sandwich, and your favorite sandwich was a sausage, namely a bratwurst. Let’s move on to something sweet.

As we’ve said before, for more than 20 years we have surveyed football game parking lots and on our web site about what people want for a warm weather desert.

Bars are the favorite tailgate desert for the simple reason you don’t need a fork, spoon, plate or bowl to eat them. You can just hold them in your hand and still feel like you’re eating pie or cake. Another reason is that one doesn’t feel the guilt when consuming numerous bars from a large tray as he or she would requesting a second slice of pie or piece of cake.

Since everybody loves carrot cake, here is a bar to please.

Carrot Cake Bars Ingredients: 1 cup Flour, 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour, 1 tsp. Ground Cinnamon, 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder, 1/2 tsp. Salt, 1/2 cup Chopped Pecans, 3/4 cup Canola Oil, 1 cup packed Light Brown Sugar, 2 large Eggs, 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract, 2 cups Carrots, cut into 1/2-inch piece, Frosting: 6 oz. softened Cream Cheese, 1 cup Confectioners’ Sugar sifted, 1 tbsp. fresh Lemon Juice, 1/2 tsp. Grated Nutmeg, 1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract, 2 tbsp. finely-chopped Pecans Preparation: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 13x9-inch baking dish. Combine flours, cinnamon, baking powder, nutmeg

and salt in a large bowl; add the pecans and stir to blend. Place the oil, brown sugar, eggs and vanilla in the bowl of your food processor and process until blended. Then gradually add the carrots through the feed tube while the motor is running, processing the mixture until the carrots are finely chopped. Pour the carrot mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until well mixed. Spread the batter into the prepared dish and bake for 35 minutes, or until the edges pull away from the sides and you can place a tooth pick into the middle and it comes out dry.

Cool on a wire rack. To make the frosting, beat the cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar until smooth. Then add the lemon juice, nutmeg and vanilla. Spread the frosting over the cooled bars and then sprinkle with chopped pecans. Cut into bars and decorate each with an orange icing carrot with green icing leaves. For a “school spirit” option, decorate each bar with a team “letter” symbol, like an “H” for Harvard or “P” for Packers.

Sit back and speakeasy

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com

Carmel Clay Historical Society

As part of the celebration surrounding Carmel Clay Historical Society’s prohibition exhibit titled “Hoosiers and their Hooch: history Perspectives on Prohibition,” the group is hosting “Flappers and Dappers: A Speakeasy,” from 7 to 10 p.m., Oct. 10, at the Bridgewater Club, 3535 E. 161st St., Carmel.

A 1920s-era party, the old-fashioned speakeasy will be a party with plenty of “hooch”—or alcoholic beverages, and some special guests.

Katherine Dill, the former executive director of the Carmel Clay Historical Society, said that she is thrilled to announce that State Rep. Jerry Torr will be the honorary host for the event.

Torr is the representative for Dist.39, and the Republican who authored the “Right to Work” law that passed in 2012.

“In addition to his work for Central Indiana Hoosiers, Jerry is a friend of history,” Dill said. “I am on the board of the Friends of the Indiana State Archives and have discussed with him on several occasions the need for a new facility for the Indiana State Archives. He has encouraged the Friends’ efforts on this front and suggested strategies for achieving that goal.”

211 1st St. S.W., Carmel, IN 46032 846-7117 carmelclayhistory@yahoo.com “Hoosiers and their Hooch: Perspectives on Prohibition” is an exhibit on display from now until Oct. 5. For information on how to view this exhibit, visit www.carmelclayhistory.org.

Dill said she’s also talked passionately with Torr about local history a number of times and he is always encouraging and receptive.

“When I considered whom might make a great honorary host, Jerry was the first person to pop into my mind. He accepted my invitation without hesitation. I know the evening will be a great opportunity for people to interact with Jerry, have a great time, and realize just how fun history can be,” she said.

Variety band Barometer Soup will perform for attendees, and gambling tables with fake money will be set up for fun.

Admission is $50 for CCHS members and $60 for non-members. This price includes food, beer, gambling, and live entertainment. There will also be a cash bar.

Turning Back the Clock Every person that comes to ClarityMD has unique needs ranging from skin condition, time constraints and financial constraints. Drs. Harper and Corea, along with their staff, consult with each patient and develop a skincare plan that fits the patient’s schedule and budget and also achieves the desired results.

“We are integrated in the client’s individual custom treatment plan and how it best fits their needs,” says Dr. Corea. “We involve the patients in our recommendations and ultimately the decisions that are made. Together we decide what will be the most effective plan that they can afford”, she adds.

The staff at ClarityMD agrees that it is important to make patients feel relaxed and special. Their goal with each patient is not to overdo and alter someone’s face or looks. They find a balance that works best for the client. They are conservative in their decisions and strive to bring out their client’s natural beauty.

“We don’t try to change our clients, we just turn back the clock”, says Dr. Harper.

Knights team up for charities

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com When the wind starts to chill and the leaves start to fall, that’s how everyone knows it’s almost time for Oktoberoktoberfest fest. And for the St. Alphonsus Liguori Knights of Columbus Council #12510, this is a time for giving back.

The group’s fifth annual Oktoberfest and charity raffle starts at 6:30 p.m. Oct. 4, on the campus of the Catholic church, at 1870 W. Oak St. This year’s Oktoberfest Chairman, Andy Auersch, said that they are expecting folks from all around the county to attend.

“We started this as a way to raise funds for local charities,” Auersch said. “And apart from our golf outing which is in the spring, this is another way for us to help feed the community.”

Funds raised will go towards the Zionsville Food Pantry and The Caring Center, two organizations that Auersch said the knights work closely with year-round, especially at a critical time when supplies are low and they are seeking to stock up in time to for the holidays the organizations are at their busiest.

Auersch said that rain or shine, a traditional German Festhalle, or tent, will be in the church parking lot. Admission is $5 and all adults age 21 years and older are invited. Booklets with tickets can be purchased, and these tickets can

be used for food and drink purchases. Auersch said the bratwursts and chicken plates will essentially be $8 in tickets, beer will be $5 and wine will be $4.

“The nice thing for people to know is that every dollar you spend actually goes to the charities,” Auersch said. “That’s kind of a cool aspect and we hope people might spend more than they would otherwise if they know that every dollar is going to help feed families. For example, a $5 beer might provide milk for one family.”

In previous years, more than 600 people have attended this event.

There will be foods such as homemade bratwurst and chicken, along with traditional German Oktoberfest brews, a festive biergarten, stein-holding competitions, dancing and live music supplied by the Alpine Express Band.

Desserts from Confectioneiress Cupcakes and My Sweetie Pie are being donated, and will be available to purchase as well.

For more information visit, www.stalkofc. com.

Family Pumpkinfest • Hours before the 21-and-older Oktoberfest at St. Alphonsus, there is a family event for those of all ages.

From 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 4, the church’s annual Pumpkinfest will take place in the athletic fields. This event is free, including free hayrides, hotdogs and pumpkin decorating, but donations will be accepted.

Capacity limited.) *Black Hat Bash ticket includes one admission to the Haunted House valid during the Black Hat Bash or Oct. 11–31, 2014.

Weeks before the actual night of haunting, the annual 4-H Junior Leaders Community Halloween Party provides a safe envihalloween ronment for trick-or-treating, carnival games, treats, hayrides and more. The free party is 6 to 8 p.m. Oct. 7 in the Exhibition Center of the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds, 2003 Pleasant St., Noblesville.

“It’s a fun way to community service,” 4-H Ag/ Youth Program Assistant Lisa Hanni said.

This is the third year the event will be held in the Exhibition Center.

“It helps with the flow,” Hanni said. “We have been able to add more carnival games with the extra space which has cut down on the length of lines that the kids have to stand in to participate in each activity.”

Hanni said a new addition this year is a photo booth.

“We’ll put up a black curtain and put Happy Halloween on it,” she said. “All families want to take pictures of their kids dressed up. This is a photo opportunity for them. We thought that it would be fun.”

Youth ages 10 and under are invited to come in costume and enjoy games, prizes, candy and refreshments, a haunted barn and a hayride.

Hayrides start at 6 p.m. and a costume contest will begin at 7:30 p.m. Hanni said there are three age groups (0-3, 4-6 and 7-10) with awards for scariest, cutest and most original. There also is a category for families that come dressed as a group.

“We offer this as a free event for families which includes hayrides, carnival games, refreshments and a haunted house,” Hanni said.

“Everyone is allowed to participate in the activities as many times as they wish. We do ask that children need to be chaperoned.”

Cash, left, and Cooper Ahnert take their turn at the lollipop pull game last year. (File photo)

Hanni estimated the event has 300 children each year.

The evening is organized and sponsored by the Hamilton County 4-H Jr. Leaders, who also hold an annual community Easter egg hunt in the spring. Hanni said funds to host the free events were raised from the Jr. Leaders poinsettia sale and soda stand during the summer’s 4-H Fair.

“They take some of their proceeds from their concession stand sales during the 4-H Fair to support this event,” she said. “It’s a way for the Jr. Leaders to give back to the community.”

As much fun as the event is for community children, Hanni said the party is a learning experience for Jr. Leaders, who run the carnival games and plan, construct and man the haunted barn.

“Whether they are the chairman or leading a game, it’s a great opportunity for the students to show their leadership and organization skills,” she said. “It is fun to watch them grow from this and other Jr. Leaders experiences. You see them become more outgoing, come out of their shell.”

Retirement myths exposed, Part II

Commentary by Adam Cmejla

In My Sept. 16 column I wrote about the first three retirement myths: finance • “When I’m retired, I won’t really have to invest anymore.”

• “My taxes will be lower when I retire.”

• “I started saving too late, I have no hope of retiring – I’ll have to work until I’m 85.”

Here are others I would like to refute: “I should help my kids with college costs before I retire.” That’s a nice thought, but remember, there is no retiree “financial aid.” Your student can work, save or borrow to pay for the cost of college, with decades ahead to pay back any loans. You can’t go to the bank and get a “retirement loan.” Putting your financial needs

above theirs is fair and smart as you approach retirement.

“No one really retires anymore.” Most people that enjoy what they do would like to continue to do it in some capacity. What if you can’t, though? What if your employer shocks you and suddenly lets you go? What if your health won’t let you work 40 hours or even 10 hours a week? Wanting to work and being able to work are two different things.

“I’ll live on less when I’m retired.” We all have the cliché in our minds of a retired couple in their seventies or eighties living modestly, hardly eating out and asking about senior discounts.

In the later phase of retirement, couples often choose to live on less, sometimes out of necessity. The initial phase of retirement may be a

different story. For many, the first few years of retirement mean traveling, new adventures, and “living it up” a little – all of which may mean new retirees may actually “live on more” out of the retirement gate.

There is no “generic” retirement experience, and therefore, there is no one-size-fits-all retirement plan. With that said, everyone still needs a plan. As is true with this (and most other things in life): fail to plan…plan to fail.

How 2015 changes will affect you Commentary by Frank Gordon

LEARN TO LOVE YOUR HOME AGAIN. Covering the latest kitchen and bathroom design, tips, and trends, our educational seminars will show you how to rekindle the warmth and beauty of your home..

“How might 2015 Medicare changes affect my bottom line?” you may ask. There is a lot of talk these days about the current medicare ins and outs of Medicare. Many more Americans are affected this year, and your family’s unique circumstances require careful planning. You can best benefit from expert guidance via a knowledgeable independent insurance agent.

The Medicare program, with an estimated more than 50 million Americans currently enrolled, dates back to 1965. Created by the U.S. Social Security Administration, it reimburses hospitals and physicians for medical care provided to qualifying people 65 and older.

The four parts of Medicare include: • Part A – Hospital Coverage: free and covers inpatient care in skilled nursing facilities, hospitals, hospice and home health care.

• Part B – Doctor Coverage: based on income levels, covers outpatient care, doctor’s services, physical or occupational therapists, and additional home health care.

• Part C – (often called Medicare Advantage)

offers a combination of both Medicare Parts A and B: is provided by private insurance companies, and has deductibles, co-pays and provider networks. Consumers should keep careful track of rates and coverage yearly; while these plans expose one to more out of pocket costs, they can be significantly less expensive • Part D – Drug Coverage: offers prescription drug coverage insurance. Plans vary, but all medically necessary drugs are covered. If you don’t elect Part D coverage initially you may end up paying a penalty if you change your mind.

While lots of choices are generally a good thing for your bottom line, this year’s Medicare tweaks make finding the right plan for your personal situation far from a one-size-fits-all proposition. There are plenty of plans for all needs and budgets, beginning with zero dollar out-of-pocket plans.

Sycamore becomes United Oct. 1

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Paul and Chris Scherrer knew the time was right to modernize their business model.

“We felt we had a special company and given the right tools we could grow it,” said Paul Scherrer, a co-owner with his real estate brother Chris. “We looked at acquiring those tools piecemeal or a la carte. It’s something we needed to attract today’s more modern agent that wanted and needed those tools. But to get them a la carte would have been very expensive.”

So the Scherrer brothers recently announced the conversion of their Sycamore Group Realtors offices in Carmel and Broad Ripple to a United Real Estate franchise, a real estate brokerage.

The name will officially change on Oct. 1. Paul said the United Real Estate’s philosophy of putting the agent first was similar to the Sycamore Group. Paul said the United Real Estate’s philosophy is to give the agents the tools to do their business and then get out of the way.

URE charges the agent a monthly fee and a transaction fee. The agent receives 100 percent commission.

Paul’s father, Paul Scherrer Sr., and partner Fred Kortepeter, created the Sycamore Group Realtors in 1996.

“It was pretty revolutionary at the time to have a real estate office that didn’t have desk space for real estate agents,” Scherrer said.

“They saw the writing on the wall and knew most agents had a home office. They saw that most of the work and most of the money was not made sitting at a desk but working in the

field. They created the Sycamore Group which specializes on the needs of what we used to call remote agents.”

With the blessings of his father and partner, Scherrer and his brother Chris formed the Sycamore Group Associates in Carmel in 2003. Last year his father and partner sold the Broad Ripple company to the Scherrer brothers.

The group has more than 70 agents. Paul said the United Real Estate training and technology tools will help agents save money and provide them with what they need to be more successful.

“Combining the United Real Estate franchise model with the existing brokerage provides a streamlined service to agents and buyers alike,” URE president Peter Giese stated in a press release. “With the training, technology and marketing tools we offer, agents will be able to grow their careers while continuing to work under 100 percent commission model.”

Local doggie day care to expand

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Happy Dog Hotel and Spa – a locally owned business specializing in canine grooming, boarding and day care – is expanding their building to allow for more room for their pups to play.

Three years ago, Beverly pet care Schroeder opened her business across from Bub’s in the Carmel Arts & Design District. She saw immediate success, especially from busy pet owners who wanted to wear out their furry friends with a day of chasing toys and wrestling other dogs in the day care area.

As a result, the play area was getting too full and her staff often has had to turn away customers because it’s not safe or fair to the dogs to allow more clients than the space can handle.

“We hate to turn people away, but we really want to provide the best experience and we just can’t have the place to crowded,” Schroeder said.

“So we started thinking in the spring that maybe an expansion would be a good idea.”

The add-on to the building will allow for a 50 percent increase in day care space, along with additional areas for bathing and suites for boarding. Schroeder said the design of the added play

area will have the look and feel of a park setting.

Construction should be complete in mid-October.

The parking lot had to be eliminated to accommodate construction, but Schroeder said almost all customers park in front of the building for quick drop-offs.

Dog day care facilities are a growing trend in Carmel. Club Canine Doggie Daycare recently moved to a new upgraded space at the Monon Square Shopping Center. Staff at that facility report a strong customer base and reservations are almost always required.

THANK YOU!

Famous for its Big Ugly Burger and its moment in the spotlight on Adam Richman’s Travel Channel spectacle, “Man v. Food”, new biz Bub’s Burgers and Ice Cream will be opening a new location in Fishers in 2015.

Owner Matt Frey said he’s excited about the plans for a new location.

“The town – soon to be city – of Fishers has been pushing a lot of dirt,” Frey said. “It looks like there’s a lot they can offer and we just really like the community.”

Frey said they had been thinking about doing something in Fishers for a while and the opportunity finally presented itself.

The new location is expected to cost approximately $1.3 million for 5,000 square feet of space.

Though it’s still being designed, the restaurant could employ as many as 125 people in the Nickel Plate District.

The original Bub’s was founded in 2003 in Carmel. Since then, it has expanded to locations in Bloomington as well as Zionsville, which opened earlier this year on 620 S Main St. Construction on the family eatery is expected to begin later this year near Fishers Corner Boulevard north of 116th Street.

When asked what would be new about the Fishers location, Frey said people could expect the “same ol’ Bub’s” including their nationally-

known menu staples, gourmet burgers and hot dogs.

“Everything including the building is still being designed,” he said. “But we’re looking at a freestanding building. A unique style, but similar to what we’ve got in Carmel and Zionsville.”

With a new Bub’s location and several other developments coming to Fishers, residents and local businesses have lots to look forward to in 2015.

Wall at Medinet Habu Showing Ramses III Battling the Sea People (Photo by Don Knebel)

Medinet Habu: Philistines in Egypt Commentary by Don Knebel

The well-preserved mortuary temple of Ramses III at Medinet Habu celebrated the pharaoh’s earthly achievements and travel allowed priests to nourish his soul so he could live forever as a god.

The temple is best known for wall carvings providing information about the Philistines, nemeses of the ancient Israelites.

Ramses III ruled Egypt from 1186 B.C. until his death in 1155 B.C. Colorful columns in the hypostyle hall of his 150-meter-long temple near Luxor show Ramses among the gods. Statues in a courtyard portray him as Osiris, god of the afterlife. Wall carvings show him delivering enemies to Amun, Egypt’s highest god at the time.

The most famous carvings are on the north exterior wall. They portray Ramses, bow stretched, and his troops battling a confederation of invading “sea people,” predominantly people the Egyptians called “Pelesets” and the Bible calls “Philistines.” The carvings show the Philistines riding three-man chariots pulled by two horses, wielding double-edged swords and long spears, carrying round shields and wearing feathered headdresses. According to the hieroglyphic account, Ramses defeated the invaders, taking many of them prisoner. The carvings also

show women and children in ox carts, suggesting an entire population on the move.

Most scholars believe the sea people described at Medinet Habu left the Aegean Sea area in about 1200 B.C. for reasons unknown and sought to settle in Egypt. After Ramses III beat them back, they moved into nearby areas. The Philistines took what is now the Gaza Strip area along the eastern Mediterranean coast. According to the Bible, as the Israelites entered their Promised Land they stayed clear of the Philistines, apparently because of their superior iron weapons and fighting skill. The Philistines later moved aggressively into Israel’s heartland until young David killed their champion Goliath and they retreated to five cities along the coast.

The Philistines are remembered today in the name “Palestine,” first used by Herodotus in the fifth century B.C. to describe the area that is now Israel. They are also remembered on the wall at Medinet Habu for battles that help shed light on much more recent events.

VIEWS

Current in Carmel

www.currentincarmel.com

Reinforcing sexist ideas

Editor, The Currentoon you printed in the Sept. 9 issue of Current in Carmel is damagingly misogynist, reinforcing the sexist notion that a woman is only as valuable as her modesty. The comic depicts a woman who is mindlessly engaged in bodily pursuits (referencing both an acting career and the action of taking sexy pictures) leaving behind her brain along with her clothing.

I have a PhD in folklore and gender studies, and I can attest to the power of harmful gender stereotypes in maintaining sexist disparities in our society. The Currentoon further reinforces an

attitude of victim-blaming, showing the woman as a dim-witted object who is responsible for her victimhood. Where is the discourse that places the blame where it actually rests: squarely on the shoulders of the perpetrators?

Please stop publishing this drivel so that I can lay down the mantle of humorless feminist and write in more constructive letters about how our state senator Mike Delph is defending the rather bigoted law restricting same-sex marriage and... oh, wait. I guess I still have plenty to be outraged at while I live here.

Jeana Jorgensen, 46032

‘Mike’s my man’

Editor, Mike Delph is my state senator. I support his re-election because he stands for the rule of law and the constitution of Indiana and the United States. He supports and works hard for our veterans. He helped establish the Military Relief

Fund that helps veteran families in need. Senator Delph is a fiscal conservative who will not vote to increase taxes on Hoosiers. We couldn’t ask for more in an elected representative.

Editor, Andy Ray’s reference to Senator Mike Delph as a “bum,” a “big embarrassment,” a “wingnut,” and to his opposition to marriage equality on religious grounds as “just plain stupid” strikes me as the kind of personal attack that has turned our political landscape into a minefield.

Further, he skews facts in an attempt to drive home his point, suggesting that the reprimand of the senator’s party was due to his religious opposition to a party position on marriage. I

have known Senator Delph for many years and I am confident of his personal character and principled approach to life in general and politics in particular. Disagreement on issues should always be welcome, even when positions on both sides are religiously based. This is what life in a pluralistic society should encourage. Even if I disagreed with Senator Delph on certain issues, I would not have to “hold my nose” when I cast my vote for him.

Here’s how to create new views from multi-level porch Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL DECK/PATIO: This home, located in West Carmel, was built in 2004. “Our original deck was showing blueprint for signs of rot and was improvement no longer safe. Instead of just replacing the deck, we decided to fulfill our dream of adding on a screened-in-porch off the kitchen in addition to a covered porch off our master bedroom.”

The multi-level addition includes a spacious screened-in porch for outdoor dining, a cozy seating area and a covered porch for relaxation.

MAIN-LEVEL SCREENED PORCH: Set on a new concrete pier foundation, the 250-square-foot porch features many design elements giving a cohesive look with the rest of the home. Arched screen window openings were chosen to complement the existing windows. Trex decking in a “Rope Swing” color was selected to blend with the home’s existing trim color while white balusters add contrast. Dimmable recessed can lighting and a ceiling fan were installed in the bead board ceiling. A full view screen door was installed providing passage to the side deck and staircase.

STAIRCASE & SEATING AREA DETAILS: Trex decking was installed on the landing, staircase and side deck. Recessed deck lighting and stair riser lights were installed to aid evening entertainment.

before & after

RESULT: “Our favorite part is our covered porch off the master bedroom. We love to open the French doors and let the breeze flow in. We start our days on the upper porch with a cup of coffee and end the day to read and relax.”

UPPER-LEVEL PORCH: French doors with sidelights were installed creating an outdoor extension off the master bedroom. As opposed to decking, 12-by-24-inch outdoor tile in a “Madison Camel” color was used for the porch flooring.

The outdoor tile not only gives the space an elegant look, but also helps weatherproof the porch below.

Brushed nickel sconce lighting was installed on the support columns to create an indoor style. Consistent with the main-level porch, a ceiling fan was installed in the painted beaded plywood ceiling.
