HSE receives $2.1 million grant news@currentinfishers.com Hamilton Southeastern Schools has received a one-time, four-year grant from the Lilly Endowment of a little more than $2.1 million as part of the Endowment’s Comprehensive CounselEnvironment ing Initiative for Indiana K-12 students. The grant includes elements to boost social-emotion learning, academic advising and college and career readiness for HSE students.

“Students who are connected to their schools are more Bourff successful on a number of levels, including attendance, behavior and academics,” HSE Supt. Allen Bourff said. “The essence of this grant is to build a more supportive network for each student within the Hamilton Southeastern Kolb Schools so that they are connected and experience the success that we want for each of them.”

The grant will be used in part to help the approximately 21,350 students within the school system by providing resources to Lawson allow school counselors to dedicate more time to the students. According to Bourff, counselors within the school district are expected to perform duties related to administrative functions and paperwork, which reduces the time they can dedicate to students.

FISHERS • Lane shifts will occur on 141st Street west of Ind. 37 for the construction of a turn lane on the north side of the road.

• With IKEA and Topgolf opening last month, residents are encouraged to visit fishers. in.us for maps and directions on how to best navigate the 116th Street area during the grand openings.

• Lane restrictions will occur on 116th Street east of Allisonville Road to allow for concrete curb and ramp repairs. Re-

“When I began working in HSE, it was clear that the levels of support our school counselors were able to offer students was not consistent, building to building, for a variety of reasons,” said Brooke Lawson, HSE mental health coordinator. “The grant is going to provide the school counselors in our district the opportunity to redefine their roles in how they support all students in areas of social-emotional learning, academic advising and college and career readiness.”

The money also will be utilized outside the classroom to help improve counseling practices and access within the community.

“The City of Fishers is a dynamic community with much to offer students as they explore the world beyond the four walls of the traditional classroom,” Bourff said. “For each student, however, to have a rewarding experience there must be coordination of purposeful student/community interaction.”

The Hamilton Southeastern Schools Foundation helped secure the grant.

“The strength of this grant is that it rallies all adults to be invested in the success and guidance of students. This includes not only school counselors, but also teachers, administrators and parents,” said Freedom Kolb, HSSF executive director. “At its core, this is a student success grant. School counselors are an integral part of student support in all HSE Schools.”

“Overall, my hope is that this grant will help increase student success in our school district to prepare all students socially, emotionally, academically and for whatever path they choose beyond high school,” Lawson said.

HSE is one of 52 public school corporations and five charter schools in the state to receive Lilly Endowment grants

HSE: Inspiring confidence

By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com

Hamilton Southeastern High School focuses on preparing students for college well in advance by Education offering unique curriculum.

Innovations is a new course offered this year. It was designed to inspire creative confidence so students can generate, pursue, develop and implement breakthrough ideas.

“This is the first year we have run it here. I co-teach it with Kelsey Habig,” teacher Steve Guenin said. “It’s set up based on future-ready skills. We teach lessons on creative problem solving, collaboration, idea generation, and all the things they say kids are going to need to survive and thrive in this dynamic future.”

The first semester is content driven and the second semester is student-driven.

“Kids are going to tackle their own projects and they’ll use things they’ve learned in first semester to work on their projects,” Guenin said.

Students also will partner with area businesses to help the business creatively problem-solve.

“We began our Community Partner Program on Oct. 23. We reached out to organizations in the community and described our project to them,” Guenin said. “We ended up with 17 businesses that presented us with challenges they were facing. Then our students ranked all 17 of

these based on the ones they were most interested in. Then using those rankings, we paired them up with their organization.”

Students work in small groups and present ideas to tackle each business’ challenge.

“We were interested in the students learning from the people they were working with, but in addition to that, these kids are the target audience for most of these businesses,” Guenin said.

He said he hopes the program will continue after this first year.

“We’re really excited. It really reinforces what we’re doing in class. We have very high expectations. I think it’s a nice way for the kids to apply what they know to something beyond the school,” Guenin said.

Brewery wins for ‘Hot Pink’

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers’ Four Day Ray Brewing recently won a bronze medal for its Hot Pink brew during the Great American Beer Festival in beer Denver, Colo.

The beer was entered in the experimental category. It was originally brewed as a summer beer.

“The Hot Pink-base beer is our blonde, and then we brewed it with the strawberries and rhubarb and jalapeno,” said Brian Graham, FDR owner and brewer.

FDR entered four beers in the competition.

Overall, more than 8,000 beers were entered.

There were 98 categories. In the experimental category, 94 beers were entered. Hot Pink placed third.

“When we put it together, my assumption was if we won for anything it would be this beer,” said Mitch Ackerman, head of brewery operations at FDR. “It was put in the experimental category, which is basically for beers that don’t fit into any other category. Accord-

ing to Graham, Hot Pink’s flavor is jam-like at the beginning and ends with the heat from the jalapenos.

Hot Pink was a summer offering, and although there’s one keg of it left, it’s not currently available. Graham said the beer may be on tap next summer because it’s a seasonal brew.

Fishers honored as a 2017 Green Community news@currentinfishers.com Accelerate Indiana Municipalities announced the 2017 Green Communities of the Year Oct. 11.

Fishers, Westfield and Environment Whiting received their awards during the Aim Ideas Summit in Evansville.

“On top of everything a city or town leader must do to ensure the long-term health and viability of their community, it’s so impressive that our Green Communities of the Year are able to aggressively dedicate themselves to sustainable practices. I applaud their efforts and believe all Hoosiers will benefit from their dedication to greener local governments,” Aim CEO Matt Greller stated in a press release.

To earn the distinction, cities had to complete a 51-question survey on purchasing,

operations, measuring success and sample projects. Fishers, Westfield and Whiting met the minimum score to be designated a Green Community, and the cities also received the highest score in their population category to be named a 2017 Green Community of the Year.

Aim launched the Green Communities Initiative in 2008 in conjunction with Christopher B. Burke Engineering.

Aim was previously known as the Indiana Association of Cities and Towns. Westfield, Fishers and Whiting received the Green Community of the Year distinction in their population categories last year as well. Fishers’ population category is more than 50,000, Westfield is in the 10,000-50,000 category and Whiting is less than 10,000.

Firefighters return from hurricane relief efforts

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers firefighters Adam Lee and Capt.

Jamey Burrows recently returned from providing relief through Indiana Task Force 1 for victims of Hurricane Harvey and nation Hurricane Maria. The task force includes emergency responders from fire departments in and around Marion County.

Lee was deployed Aug. 27 for an 11-day deployment helping with Hurricane Harvey recovery with a 14-man team. His team was made up of personnel from Indianapolis, Carmel, Fishers, Whitestown, Plainfield and Greenfield.

Originally, Lee and his team were told they would be conducting water rescue, but upon arrival the team was stationed on the west side of Houston but then went to the Jack Brooks Regional Airport to assist with evacuation.

“What we did in conjunction with (the National Guard and Coast Guard) was triage those people,” he said. “If they required medical treatment they were sent to a field hospital established there or evacuated with a medical helicopter. The uninjured we took care of basic necessities.”

Lee has been a member of Indiana Task Force 1 for three years. He serves on the Fishers Fire Dept. Station 392 on C Shift.

Burrows was deployed Sept. 20 and was away for 17 days. He spent time in Puerto Rico

anywhere Indiana Task Force 1 was deployed to aid in recovery for Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Maria destruction. (Submitted photo)

and returned home Oct. 6.

“We were gathering intelligence to send back to FEMA on hospitals and area fire stations. As we came across those, we would check in with them,” said Burrow, who also also aided in sending fuel to a hospital with only two hours of fuel left.

FFD Capt. John Mehling said the men sacrificed time away from family to help those in need.

“One of the things that doesn’t seem to be mentioned a lot is what these guys leave behind with their family,” Mehling said. “Adam is a new father and was pulled away for 11 days at a moment’s notice, leaving his wife and baby at home. Jamey has two kids himself and he missed (family events) and his wife’s birthday.”

Burrows shipped flowers to his wife for her birthday and Lee said other FFD firefighters checked in on his family each day.

Hamilton County Area Neighborhood Development urges fundraisers to stay home When it came time to plan an annual fundraiser for Hamilton County Area Neighborhood Development, an organiFUNDRAISER zation that focuses on affordable housing issues, there were a lot of options.

It’s common for nonprofits to hold golf outings or fancy black tie galas. But that just didn’t seem right for HAND. “We didn’t think those events necessarily fit with Davis our mission and our demographic,” Outreach Coordinator Andrea Davis said.

Instead, they are asking people to stay at home.

On Nov. 11, HAND will ask for $75 per person or $150 a household for fundraising – from home.

According to its Web site: “VIP reception will NOT start at 6 p.m. Doors will NOT open at 7

“When you think about the cost of a venue and dinner and other expenses, maybe only $75 of the $150 you spend for a fundraiser actually goes to the nonprofit,” p.m. Dinner will NOT be served at 7:30 p.m. Program will NOT commence at 8 p.m.”

The goal is for participants to “enjoy the kind of comfort that we work to provide our neighbors.”

“When you think about the cost of a venue and dinner and other expenses, maybe only $75 of the $150 you spend for a fundraiser actually goes to the nonprofit,” Davis said. “So we thought it might be neat to have 100 percent of the money go to fundraising, and then

our participants can have fun at home, which is something we’re trying to provide for our community: affordable housing.”

That doesn’t mean it won’t be fun. Davis said there will be an online component to connect people who are participating in the event.

Plus, there will be an online silent auction.

“We think it could be fun where people share on social media what they like doing at home,” she said. “I know our director is inviting people over to her home, and she’s going to talk a little about what HAND does. We hope everyone shares photos and videos from their fun evenings at home.”

Proceeds will support HAND’s housing development, home repair and community building programs.

HAND has invested nearly $17 million in Hamilton County housing since 2003, including the development of 96 affordable apartments for low-income residents.

HSE program searching for business partners

By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com The Academy of Finance at Hamilton Southeastern High School is looking for businesses to partner with for summer internship opportunities. AOF is a program education offered to juniors that combines curriculum work with an internship during the summer between their junior and senior year.

“Students are (sent) through specific classes that focus on economics, accounting and finance,” said Rosenbaum Eric Rosenbaum, department chairperson. “Then along with that curriculum track we added some community collaboration. Each student is paired with a mentor from the community that they can job shadow and talk about different industries that are available after high school. The other collaboration piece is the internship.”

Students are compensated for their work.

Internships typically begin in June and end in

mid-August.

“We have 34 juniors who will be looking for placement,” Rosenbaum said. “We start now looking for places. It goes all the way up until the summer. We’re looking for something where the student is in the office setting supporting the business.”

The purpose of the internship is twofold.

“We wanted to try and give them more exposure to different career paths,” Rosenbaum said. “The second part is we wanted to start to give students a little more exposure to the professional side of things. They learn the soft skills of what it takes to be responsible, to communicate and to work in a group. They can then transfer those skills to any job they get later on in life.”

Typical daily tasks include data entry, file maintenance, contacting clients and handling accounts receivable.

“The company will interview and select the student that is the best fit for the position,” Rosenbaum said.

Interested businesses should contact Rosenbaum at erosenbaum@hse.k12.in.us.

Stylists will donate their time to work on Sunday to provide services to the women.

Approximately 20 women will receive haircuts.

Using his voice Deaf volunteer teaches fire safety to the community

By Jessica Hoover news@currentinfishers.com “My deafness doesn't define me but my deafness enabled me to find myself.”

These are the words cover story of George Martin, a Fishers resident who volunteers with the Fishers Fire Corps, among other organizations, and who wants to make the community a better and safer place.

When Martin was born, he was diagnosed as hard of hearing, but now he is completely deaf. He can speak and sometimes read lips but said communication can still be a struggle, Mehling as it was when he was growing up.

“When I was younger it was very difficult not being able to hear things or understand words that were spoken,” Martin said. “I was often made fun of because I couldn't hear. I grew up before ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), so there wasn't access to quality education. There are always difficulties in life, and although communication is certainly a challenge, I have always been eager to bridge the gap between the hearing and the deaf community.”

By volunteering with the Fire Corps, Martin is doing just that. With the help of an interpreter, he has been able to aid firefighters of the Fishers Fire Dept. since 2009.

The primary duty of a member of the Fire Corps is to provide rehabilitation support in emergency situations, such as keeping the firefighters hydrated during a fire. Some Fire Corps volunteers, including Martin, educate the community about fire safety

George Martin, who is deaf, spends time volunteering with the Fishers Fire Corps.

after completing a 10-week course. According to FFD Capt. John Mehling, by educating others, Martin has become “the voice that brings the community together.”

“George loves people, he cares about people,” Mehling said. “There are certain needs that other people have, whether they’re deaf, whether they’re blind, whether they’re in a wheelchair or whatever the case may be. George wants to make sure that everybody has the same opportunity to receive those same messages to help keep them safe.”

An example when Martin helped keep the community safe was during the 2010 Freedom Festival. A tornado warning was issued during the festival, and approximately 25 deaf citizens were unaware where to seek shelter. Martin was able to communicate in American Sign Language and get them to safety.

With 4 to 6 percent of the Hamilton County population either deaf or hearing impaired, Martin wants to show them that everyone has a unique purpose.

“I hope I am encouraging the deaf community to reach out and find their niche in their community as well,” Martin said. “If a deaf child comes in and sees a deaf guy training fire safety, then that child's perception of what they can do and how they can fit in changes. And if a hearing child comes in and sees a deaf person training fire safety with the fire department, then their perception of deaf and hard of hearing people changes. That's what I want to do.

I want each child to know and adult to be reminded that no matter who they are or what their strengths or weaknesses, they can make a difference.”

o b s e r v a tion Zombie inoculation Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The notion of a zombie apocalypse has become common parlance to indicate the end of the world. Dozens of television series, movies, songs and even band names are dedicated to the dystopian notion that the human race will end not with seven horsemen or a nuclear-enabled eastern dictator but, instead, with a virus gone awry.

Generations of us have come of age in a time when disease and contagion rank among our utmost fears. AIDS, Ebola, flesh eating bacteria and Zika are part of our common lexicon – and are the vague anxiety producers in our lives. Are they going to affect us directly? If we care for ourselves carefully, they probably will not. But they may change our dating, travel or outdoor habits for good. We dread that a single, casual social interaction could lead to an irreversible life-changing, or life-ending, instance.

So, we’ve figured out that the world is dangerous. But didn’t we know this when Og first bumped into a saber-toothed tiger and didn’t make it back to the cave? Most humans understand that a bit of caution can lead to an extended lifespan. So, we have come to hide out in the cave. Our social interactions move in bits and bytes through smartphones and social networks.

We meet in cyber chat rooms and travel through virtual reality tanning beds. Yet, are there zombies lurking on Facebook? Do the brain-eaters lie in wait behind a silly, cat-themed meme? Can they grab us with clever or salacious headlines, infect our minds with hate and cause us to do the same to others? If, as some argue, there is a disease affecting our society – one that makes us blind to the perspectives and beliefs of others – is there any hope for inoculation?

The other day I heard myself saying, “Parenting never ends,” and in the same moment, thinking, but it sure gets humor a lot easier! A coworker was regaling me with the woes of potty-training his 2-year-old while I was sharing a logistical nightmare of having to simultaneously pick up my teenagers at three different locales. Winner of the award for Most Challenging Parenting Task? The toddler! Hands-down.

Doo and I have certainly come a long way. At our darkest hour, we had four children younger than 7 and were providing full-time day care for our infant nephew. I say “we” to sound democratic, but in reality it was just I. God bless the YMCA, which provided two hours of free child-watching, hot showers and an exceptionally clean facility where harried moms like myself could congregate and pretend to look cool while attempting Turbo Kick.

I do not miss those days. To be sure, parenting still is daunting. I often lie awake wondering if we’ll end up dealing with a teen pregnancy or a stint in rehab. What if the twins don’t pass their driving tests (gulp)? What if they do? But I’m able to compartmentalize the concerns and then soothe my heartburn with an episode of “Stranger Things.”

But when your children are little, there is no escape from reality. You can’t just run to your happy place when you’re stuck in traffic with an un-diapered kid screaming “pee pee is coming!” At that point, parenting is about survival. And you must be fully, exhaustingly, present. Always.

So maybe parenting doesn’t actually get any easier, but it certainly becomes more manageable. And much less gross. Peace out.

Chef Bricker brings dressings to the market Submitted by Fishers Winter Farmers Market Fishers is excited to announce the return of the Winter Farmers Market, on Saturdays farmers market from 9 a.m. until noon through March 2018. Farmers markets have moved to the Roy G. Holland Memorial Park building, offering a large space for vendors and customers during winter months. This winter, Brick House All-Natural Vinaigrettes is excited to be in attendance, bringing shoppers healthy, natural products straight to the dinner table.

Chef Jeff Bricker is no novice to the culinary industry. With more than 30 years of experience, he’s completed culinary arts training at Ivy Tech Community College Central Indiana, participating as a student in a summer intensive classical French cooking program from l’Ecole de Cuisine La Varenne in Burgundy, France under the direction of chef/author Anne Willan. In addition to his culinary education, Bricker has earned various awards and accolades from industry affiliates before embarking on an entrepreneurial adventure.

In 2014, after experiencing a “health reality check,” Bricker began a journey towards a healthier lifestyle. He worked to become a food label reader, striving to be more aware of good nutrition, and quickly noticed the lack of a truly healthy salad dressing. That moment sparked the birth of what is now Brick House All-Natural Vinaigrettes.

Frustrated by the lack of healthy salad dressings, Bricker came up a recipe of his own. With encouragement from friends and family, Bricker began bottling and selling it at local farmers markets. Fast-forward to 2017, and Brick House now offers four tasty and nutritious salad dressings. He produces the ingredients, assembles them in a shared commercial kitchen and has them bottled at a FDA-inspected facility on the west side of Indy.

Flavors include Classic Sweet Dijon, Creamy Garlic Herb, Raspberry Champagne, and Sunny Honey, Balsamic. All four Indiana-grown dressings will be available for purchase at the Fishers Winter Farmers Market. Stop by to chat with chef Bricker, learn more about the dressings and exchange recipes all winter-long.

My favorite veggie tale Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Following my knee operation, my doctor informed me I’d developed borderline anemia. I don’t even know how humor that’s possible. Since the new administration took over, I’m afraid to cross any borders.

My physician suggested I focus on a healthy, high-protein diet, heavy on foods like spinach, hearty cuts of beef and a bowl of Raisin Bran every day. Fortunately, these are already some of my food faves—including the spinach, which I even liked when I was a kid. I remember being skeptical of the television marketing for that vegetable, though. They tried to convince me that eating spinach would help me attract the opposite sex. I was not in the market for anyone who looked like Olive Oyl. When I was growing up, my grandmother always stressed that carrots were good for our eyes, and her proof was that we never saw dead rabbits on the road. But opossum corpses were strewn everywhere.

“Opossums hate carrots,” my grandmother informed me. That was a pretty good piece of propaganda! I still like carrots and have never been hit by a car. Thanks, Grandma.

Cauliflower: I hated cauliflower. It looked like somebody’s bleached brain. Nowadays, I don’t see cauliflower being served as a side dish much. It’s usually part of a medley.

Broccoli: Apparently, I ate a lot of broccoli when I was young but didn’t know it till I was 18. I knew there was something hidden under that wonderful cheesey sauce, but I was afraid to look until I graduated from high school.

Peas: We never had fresh peas at home.

Just canned. I’m not sure anyone in my family knew that peas came from a pod.

They looked like ammunition from my BB gun, and there was no way I could get them on my fork. The best technique to tackle the issue was to roll up the peas in my mashed potatoes.

Would you like to hear what I thought of Brussels sprouts and okra?

Did you say “No, thank you”?

You took the words right out of my mouth.

Retirement spending mistakes — When planning for retirement, many people assume their expenses will decrease. In reality, nearly half of retirees spend more in the first years of retirement than they did when working. This is because they have more free time and feel emboldened to spend more on hobbies, dining out and travel. So, when planning for retirement, spend some time thinking about what your expenses will truly be and include some splurging money in the plan.

The drill tested the preparedness and response of hospital medical staff and local responders should a real crisis occur. The event was staged by St. Vincent’s Emergency Management Sub-Committee in partnership with Indiana Hospital District 5 Preparedness Committee. At least 20 St. Vincent associates played the roles of patients and family members in addition to local police officers, firefighters and other community organizations who participated in the event.

ATI to launch Theatre Immersion Experience

By Rick Morwick • rick@youarecurrent.com

To the casual observer, the stars of any stage production are, well, the stars.

But to the trained eye, the production stars are never on stage. They are, in fact, completely out of sight — a point Carmel’s Actors Theatre of Indiana wants to drive home with an innovative program designed for teens who are interested in theater careers.

In January, ATI will launch “Theatre Immersion Experience 2018,” a series of job-shadowing workshops that encompass all facets of production, from stage management to directing to set, lighting and costume design.

Open to ages 14 to 18, each “immersion” consists of 12 students who follow an ATI main stage production literally from start to finish -- all under the leadership of ATI’s director of education MaryJayne Waddell, an accomplished professional with 37 years of stage experience. “(Students will) have direct access to the directors, the actors, the designers,” said WadWaddell dell, who joined ATI in August. “They’re going to see the first day of rehearsal. They’re going to see the technical rehearsal. They’ll see final dress. They’ll shadow backstage crew and the stage manager. They’ll be there opening night and the opening night party.”

In short, they’ll get a big picture, nuanced look at a major production, the goal of which is to help aspiring professionals find their theater niche. For some, that might be performing on stage. For others, it might be doing the essential work off it.

Immersions are designed to be illuminating, enlightning and career-guiding.

“They’re really going to see the collaborative effort that it

In each immersion, students will:

takes to bring a show to life and really help them appreciate all of the different departments that go into producing the stage show,” said Waddell, who has performed on Broadway, Off-Broadway, cruise ships, national tours and has appeared in TV and feature films. “We really do want to take the kids to the next level.”

Because of the focus on job shadowing and close interaction, each immersion program is limited to 12 students. In addition to following an ATI production, each experience includes 40 hours of customized instruction from Broadway and theater professionals.

Cost is $600 per student. For more or to register, visit atistage.org and click the Education tab.

“The real goal of this immersion is to help them to appreciate and actually teach them life skills on how to work together to recognize that everyone has talent, whether it’s on stage or behind the scenes,” Waddell said. “It’s not just on stage. There are lots of jobs behind the scenes.This is for kids that are really serious and curious and ready to grow.”

Immersion dates

• Follow an ATI main stage production from first rehearsal through opening night.

• Immersion No. 1: “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” Jan. 6 - Feb. 17, 2018

• Receive six sessions totaling 40 hours of customized classes taught by Broadway and theater professionals to help identify, improve and develop their talents.

• Immersion No. 2: “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” March 31 - May 12, 2018

• Star in a final showcase that they have written, directed, choreographed and designed, preformed for an audience of theater professionals, community leaders and college theater representatives.

• Immersion Nos. 3 and 4 (two sessions): “Million Dollar Quartet,” May 19 - June 16, 2018.

‘Annie’ sets Civic Theatre box office records for season opener editorial@youarecurrent.com Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre’s production of “Annie” became the most successful season opener at the box office in the theater’s 103-year history.

“Thanks to everyone who saw ‘Annie’ and spread the word about it throughout the community,” Civic Chairman of the Board of Directors Donald E. Knebel said in a press release. “Our cast and crew thrive on full houses and you rewarded them immensely.”

“Annie” featured national tour sets that were assembled by the Civic’s professional technical staff.

Anne Nicole Beck provided the choreography for the show, which concluded its run Oct. 28.

Civic will present “Joseph & The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” Dec. 15 to Jan 7, 2018 at the Tarkington in Carmel.

Donatello’s to host wine dinner editorial@youarecurrent.com Donatello’s Italian Restaurant, 9 W. Main St., Carmel, is hosting a six-course wine dinner to benefit fundraiser Chaucie’s Place, a local nonprofit that focuses on preventing child sexual abuse and youth suicide.

This is the second year Donatello’s has hosted a winter wine dinner to raise funds for Chaucie’s Place. The event will be held at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 5. Tickets are $120, which includes food, wine and a donation to Chaucie’s Place. There also will be a silent auction featuring items such as Indiana University basketball tickets, VIP passes to Top Golf, theater tickets, gift cards and more.

Adam Aasen, co-owner of Donatello’s with his parents Beth and Pat, recently traveled to Italy on his honeymoon and so the theme for this year is a “Trip Around Italy,” with each course focusing on a different region of Italy.

Melissa Peregrin, director of operations and communications for Chaucie’s Place, said events like these are important for the nonprofit child advocacy organization.

Tailgating on Thanksgiving week Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Every year, Thanksgiving arrives during the latter days of the football season. And every year, we try to remind tailgaters that this is a good time to plan to use some of their leftovers for an epicurean tailgate experience. There’s turkey, cranberries and pumpkin pie, just to name a few of the pleasures that can be consumed at your tailgate party.

Depending on the weather, which is usually plenty cool, you might want to make a soup to warm the stomachs and the hearts of your guests. Here’s an improved turkey soup recipe from our 2015 column that will help you finish your leftovers in style.

Blueprint for Improvement: Crooked Stick whole house transformation Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions

Before

Background Info: This 1980s home is on a beautiful lot right on Crooked Stick Golf Club in Carmel. The home, however, needed an interior and exterior updates to better meet the needs of the owners and their family.

The goal for the exterior remodel was to create an overall more modern design while adding a more comfortable outdoor living space to the backyard. The owners wanted to make the space more functional for their family.

1. The most significant transformation came from reducing the height of the portico and creating a one-story covered porch, replacing the colonial-style pillars with something more contemporary.

2. Reducing the height of the portico allowed for the addition of three dormer windows, giving the home more height.

3. In the backyard we added a one-story covered patio with a ceiling fan, creating a shaded area for the family and their guests to stay cool on hot summer days.

4. Additional exterior changes included a stamped concrete pool deck, new windows and shutters and painting of the entire home.

After

Before problems The original colonial-style exterior was dated and lacked curb appeal. The backyard had limited area for the large family to entertain guests. The existing outdoor living space lacked shaded area.

There was plenty of space on the lot but it lacked design and was underutilized.

Ruins of Ebla, near Aleppo, Syria. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Ebla and the forgotten empire Commentary by Don Knebel Most Americans have never heard of the Eblaite Empire. But historians now believe that empire rivaled in power and achievement the contemporatravel neous empires of Egypt and Mesopotamia.

In 1964, a team of Italian archaeologists began excavating an artificial hill called Tell Mardikh about 33 miles southwest of Aleppo, Syria. In 1968, they confirmed they had located the city of Ebla, with a hilltop palace overlooking 150 acres of buildings and temples. In 1975, archaeologists uncovered more than 17,000 clay tablets near the palace, neatly arranged by subject. The tablets recorded in cuneiform script the history of Ebla at the peak of its power in the middle of the third millennium B.C., the same period in which Egyptians built the Great Pyramids. The records, written in Sumerian and a previously unknown language now called Eblaite, described a highly organized city of about 40,000 that controlled an empire occupying most of what is now Syria and parts of southern Turkey.

Ebla’s tablets revealed ideas once thought to have a much more recent origin. Citizens elected the ruler for a term of seven years, with a council of elders advising the ruler.

Women held positions of power in the government, which included 14 ministers, two serving in the city itself, and the others serving around the empire. The wife of the elected ruler controlled linen and woolen cloth making, which joined olive oil, beer and manufactured goods, as the key exports.

According to the accounting records, women and men earned equal wages.

Ebla was severely damaged by warfare in 2240 B.C., which helped preserve the tablets. It then began a period of gradual decline that ended with its total destruction in about 1600 B.C., after which Ebla and its empire were forgotten. During Syria’s civil war, soldiers have used Ebla’s hill as a lookout.

The Temple of Whom Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Today I want to tackle another tricky grammar bugaboo. It’s one of those confusing quandaries I grammar guy simply avoid using because I don’t want to sound dumb. I’m talking about who and whom.

Every time I’m tempted to use whom, I’m afraid of sounding like I own a fancy, private helicopter to travel to my private island where I roll around in gold coins, Scrooge McDuck-style. It just kind of sounds snooty. So let’s learn how to use it correctly, shall we?

I have an easy way to remember when to use who or whom: Use who when you can replace it in a sentence with he; use whom when you can replace it in a sentence with him. For example: Who/Whom tried to parachute out of my private helicopter? Bad idea, dude.

Let’s try replacing who/whom with him.

Him tried to parachute out of my private helicopter. That doesn’t sound right. How about he: He tried to parachute out of my private helicopter. That sounds better, so we should use who in this sentence.

Another example: To who/whom did you invite over to your secret island bungalow this weekend? Which sounds right: I invited he over to my secret island bungalow this weekend, or, I invited him to my secret island bungalow this weekend. Him sounds better, so we should use whom in this example.

He/him is simply a secret, tricky way to determine the subject and object of a sentence. The subject is the person (or place or thing) doing the action in a sentence. The object is the person (or place or thing) on the receiving end of the action. To whom (object) did Gary (subject) direct his cheesy pick-up lines? Since we usually don’t think in terms of subject and object, I think it’s simpler to use the he/him trick.

In my opinion, going around using whom properly probably makes people assume you have an entire closet just for your polo ascots, but I always enjoy a rollicking, post-brunch polo match on the beach of my exclusive pretend island.
