Hotel development planned for 106th off I-69

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com

Pending approval from the Fishers City Council in August, the Economic development currently-under-construction interchange at I-69 and 106th Street will house a new Fairfield Inn and Suites hotel as early as next summer.

Valparasio-based Good Hospitality Services LLS is proposing an $8 million project that would include a four-story, 99-room hotel at the southwest corner of 106th Street and Crosspoint Boulevard. HRC Hotels LCC, based in East Lansing, Mich., will own the hotel, which is expected to have an average room rate of $110 per night.

“This will be our sixth hotel in the region,” Good Hospitality Services and HRC President Jeffrey Good said. “We have one at the airport, two downtown, two on the northwest side, and this would be on the northeast side … We’re taking a look at the beltway, we’re taking a look at where there are emerging or growing markets, and obviously, I think everybody that knows about Fishers knows it’s a pretty rapidly developing area. We just felt we wanted to be a part of that.”

While the new I-69 interchange at 106th Street makes the location more appealing, Good’s team was already eyeing the area before that project was planned.

Good Hospitality Services LLC has proposed building an $8 million Fairfield Inn & Suites hotel off I-69 near the upcoming 106th Street interchange. (Submitted rendering)

“The interchange being put in was part of the appeal to us, but we were up looking in Fishers in that area anyway,” he said. “We were looking before the overpass and all that, and the interchange just sort of added to it. I guess we were a little bit ahead of the game.”

The project will be the area’s first to go before the city council since ordinances were passed in May requiring developments along I-69 at 106th and 116th streets to receive council approval while the city reworks its

outdated zoning standards.

“We have two meetings left so far with the City of Fishers in August,” Good said. “Barring any issues there, we would like to start construction in September right around after Labor Day, which would then probably take us out through sometime early next summer for opening. A lot of that really depends on the winter weather and how bad Mother Nature treats us over the winter, but we’re planning on starting this fall.”

Council criticized for voting down EMS raises

30 South Range Line Road Carmel, IN 46032 317.489.4444 info@youarecurrent.com The views of the columnists in Current in Geist are their own and do not necessarily reflect the positions of this newspaper.

The Lawrence Common Council’s decision from June 15 not to approve a $2 hourly raise for the city’s EMS workers was public safety brought under fire and criticized during 15 public comments from residents at the council’s July 5 meeting.

The council unanimously approved Proposal 7, which increased the city’s ambulance fee, but denied Proposal 6, which would have granted the pay raise, by a 6-3 vote.

Lawrence Common Council President Joe Williams released a statement June 27 that said, in part, “The council unanimously approved Proposal 7 and denied Proposal 6. However, it is the council’s intent to review the proposal and the impact of the increased revenue over time. Six months after the new emergency response rates go into effect, the council will reconsider Proposal 6. Until then, it is fiscally irresponsible to approve pay increases without sufficient evidence of sustainable funds.

“The council will not put politics over public safety. The City of Lawrence has a history of using unsustainable funds to attempt to reach an end goal, only to fall short when funds dry up.”

A large and vocal crowd was on hand at the July 5 Lawrence Common Council meeting to speak out against the council’s decision at its June 15 to not approve a $2 raise for the city’s EMS workers. (Photo by Sam Elliott)

Common Council members Rick Wells and Bob Jones expressed disapproval with Williams issuing the statement, which was printed under a “City of Lawrence Common Council” letterhead, without notifying or sharing it with the rest of the council prior to its release, and with the wording suggesting the pay raise was also unanimously declined.

Proposal 11, adopted unanimously by the council July 5, will result in a one-time payment of more than $445,000 from the Office of Medicaid Policy and Planning into the EMS fund, which had a balance of approximately

$1.5 million as of the end of May, Controller Jason Fenwick said.

The fund, which would pay for the proposed raises, has been between $115,000 and $480,000 in the negative at the end of the past three years, but Fenwick and Mayor Steve Collier told the council that would no longer be the case due to the one-time payment and expected similar payments in the future, the city’s increased ambulance fees and by no longer using the fund to pay approximately 14 firefighters’ salaries. Fenwick said the proposed raises would be able to be sustained indefinitely from the EMS fund.

The city’s current EMS pay, $12 per hour, has left Fire Chief Dino Batalis struggling to man ambulances while also fully staffing fire trucks. Paying firefighters overtime to backfill ambulances costs the city approximately $8,600 per month.

Williams said the council was given some inaccurate information before its vote to deny the raises. He said the issue would be revisited very soon.

“We’re right on it,” he said. “I don’t want to give any definites, but I’ll tell you this will be a priority.”

Starks vies for model search prize to help foster children

By Renee Larr • news@currentinfishers.com Angel Starks needs the help of her fellow Fishers residents. She is competing in a nationwide contest for Jet Set contest Magazine. Ms. Jet Set 2016 is a contest open to any women looking to make a difference in the world.

“The Jet Set Magazine contest started in May. The main focus of the competition is to be able to give back and be the face of the B+ FoundaStarks tion, which helps families of children that have cancer,” Starks said. “So, you’ll go out after this and be the spokesperson for the foundation.”

The competition is open until August. Every few days, votes are tallied and those with the lowest votes are eliminated. Starks has to market herself to potential voters and keep them voting each day. Winners are determined from each state and then an overall winner is chosen.

Ms. Jet Set also is featured on the cover of the magazine and receives a $100,000 grand prize. Starks has definite plans for that money.

“I wanted to be a part of the competition because I used to be a foster parent. I adopted my two girls that I was fostering. I ended up giving up fostering, but I still want to give back to kiddos,” she said. “I still want to be able

to do something that will make an impact on children. I decided I’m going to open a guardian home. I think that would be a great gift for me to give back to the kids in our city.”

The home would serve as a temporary housing community for children being removed from their homes and placed into foster care.

Starks said she feels it’s damaging to a child’s self-esteem to sit through the process of being turned down by foster families. Her guardian home would prevent children from being present while a home is being found.

She also would like to use the money to take her sister on a vacation.

“My niece passed away on May 13 in a car accident. It was a tragedy to our family. My sister really needs to be with her family. My gift to her would be a break,” she said. “I’m definitely taking her on some trip. She’s never been anywhere. That’s because she has been so invested in her four children ever since she had them.”

Starks is an author, radio show host and a stand-up comedian. Her radio show, “The Angel Starks Show,” is broadcast on ampsradio.com and is an open forum for people to share ideas.

Her book is titled “The Undercover Businesswoman: Don’t Let the Lipstick and Pearls Fool You.” She said the book makes it clear women do not have to choose between being beautiful and a smart businesswoman.

Fishers’ bicentennial relay torchbearers chosen

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com At age 10, Kyle Condra got to carry the torch for the 1987 Pan American Games in Indianapolis. county Now Condra, 39, a Carmel Fire Dept. lieutenant, was named one of 38 Hamilton County torchbearers for Indiana’s Bicentennial Torch Relay. He was chosen by a selection committee.

“All of our torchbearers have affected positive change in many ways,” stated Brenda Myers, Hamilton County Tourism president and chief executive officer. “The decision was not easy. These 38 people showcase how Hamilton County is a part of a bigger story in the state’s history.”

The torch will enter Hamilton County from Boone County at Zionsville Presbyterian Church at 3 p.m. Oct. 13. The torch route will then travel through Carmel, Westfield and Fishers, before arriving at the downtown Noblesville square at 7 p.m. The relay will end Oct. 15 at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis.

Other Hamilton County relay nominees received a certificate and will receive a shirt to wear on the day of the relay. The committee used state criteria to narrow down the field

from a strong pool of candidates.

Condra, a Noblesville resident, was nominated by his uncle, Greg Apple.

“I had no idea I was nominated until I got the letter in the mail,” Condra said. “To see how few people were selected and how many were nominated, that was quite a shock. Looking back, my wife (Traci) was asking questions out of the norm.

She was doing spy work to get some information for my uncle.”

Condra, a Carmel firefighter for 14 years, was previously with the Fishers Fire Dept. He earned the Medal of Valor from the Carmel Fire Dept. for entering freezing water without regard for his own safety as a first responder on a quadruple drowning call. He also earned the Paramedic Service Award and a unit citation for a cardiac arrest save.

Goddess of Garbage

Geist’s Dolon turns trash to treasure, opens Junkyard Goddess boutique

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Geist resident Michelle Dolon has been recycling, upcycling, up-styling and generally DIY-ing her own furniture for 20 years. cover story Now, she’ll do yours, too, as her recently opened Junkyard Goddess Eco-Boutique at 1051 E. 54th St. houses home décor pieces, crafted by fellow artisans and herself, that have been repurposed from their original state, created new or given new life from antique origins.

“I find things everywhere. Something that might look like junk to somebody else, I can see the beauty in it and the quality,” Dolon said.

“That’s what I look for, just something that’s got a personality and quality and makes a statement — and then I put my own spin on it. A lot of times, I’ll turn it into something else completely, or it might be as simple as just painting it and giving it a nice, happy color. My whole concept is you don’t have to go out and buy new things.

We can reuse what we have and help the environment and have beautiful things, and you don’t have to spend a ton of money that way. We can reuse what we’ve got and have a beautiful atmosphere.”

Dolon, an area native who moved back to Geist six years ago following 24 years in Los Angeles, inherited her recycling

roots from her mother.

“Back when I was a little girl, my mom went out and she would just find things,” Dolon said. “It was just she and I, she didn’t have a lot of money to spend, so she would find things and repurpose them. I kind of got that from her and learned how to see beauty in junk.”

Before opening her own store, Dolon developed her own line of Junkyard Goddess Milk Paint in 2015.

The paint, available in 18 colors, is water-based and made exclusively from organic ingredients.

“I launched it last year because I had spent a few years buying and upcycling and up-styling furniture and selling it on Etsy. I was just looking for a really great paint to use and I really didn’t find exactly what I was looking for,” Dolon said. “I kind of just decided to come out with my own milk paint line, so I created a bunch of colors I thought were really good and muted tones you could use on home décor.

“It’s 100 percent non-toxic, it’s 100 percent Earthderived ingredients, and that was really important for me with a son as I was painting his baby furniture,” she added. “He and cats and dogs gnaw on the furniture, so I needed something completely non-toxic and that you could use in the wintertime with your windows closed. That’s what led me to milk paint. Plus, it gives you this old-world vibe that goes along with my style.”

Geist resident Michelle Dolon recently opened Junkyard Goddess Eco-Boutique to showcase art and upcycled home décor by herself and other area artisans.

Michelle Dolon isn’t alone in crafting the upcycled creations found at Junkyard Goddess Eco-Boutique.

Launching the store with her own work and the works of others was always her goal.

“It’s been a dream of mine forever and I wanted to bring something artistic and a place where other artists can come and sell their pieces, people can come and shop and have a great experience along with finding unique things,” she said.

Dolon has partnered with several area artisans to feature their creations at Junkyard Goddess.

“A lot of them are really finding me,” she said. “I feel like people that have the same type of vibe I have are kind of drawn here. I’m always looking for talented people. We’ve got

several right now, and we’re always looking for more. I love to have the opportunity to showcase aspiring artists and artisans and help them get their careers going. That’s what it’s all about for me.”

For Polly Banaschak of Columbus, Ind., working with Dolon and Junkyard Goddess represented the first opportunity to get her artwork and jewelry into a retail setting.

“I’ve been doing the artwork for about the last seven years, and I’ve sold on Etsy and Handmade by Amazon. Michelle actually found me on Etsy, and this is the first time I’ve had my work in a shop, which is very cool,” Banaschak said. “I started making necklaces probably two years ago. They’re based off of my prints, and none of them are alike. They’re all handmade, and I reuse old jewelry.”

Charmingly imperfect

F R O M T HE backshop

‘Draft Mitch’ could work The former CEO of Angie’s List, Bill Oesterle, had a good idea. You might have heard that his Draft Mitch campaign was under way. Regardless of whether Gov. Mike Pence is tapped by Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump as a vice-presidential running mate (the decision was due to be made after press time), we liked the idea. But former Gov. Mitch Daniels has no interest in leaving his post as president of Purdue University. Daniels, whose fiscal sharpness and thoughtful leadership were among the qualities he deployed to bring Indiana to the fore on so many levels, leaves Hoosier Republicans behind the 8-ball if Pence was the VP selection. With Pence, whom we believe works with good and pure intentions, there have been a few, but fairly major, train wrecks along the way (the state news agency idea, and RFRA and abortion measures among them) to have him in the No. 2 role. We wish Daniels had been squarely in the race for the White House from the start. As much as Indiana would have benefitted by Daniels’ return to the governor’s office, were that a possibility, the nation would more prosper from his leadership and mostly quiet but no-nonsense approach on so many fronts. It won’t happen. As to Trump, he is starting to gain in national polling, and we believe he will win Indiana in the Nov. 8 election. Still, his name-calling flamethrower persona is continuing to grate on even the most ardent Republicans we know. Can Trump hold office with distinction? Is he the lesser of evils, as some have suggested? We can’t answer the first question, and you know our answer to the second. Remember, the comparison is to Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Barn door backboards Commentary by Terry Anker As a kid growing up in rural northern Indiana, much of our family’s entertainment consisted of visits with the array of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, scattered across the county. To me, with only one sibling 11 years younger, it was fun to have playmates closer to my own age.

The adults would be in good spirits from a bit of euchre.

In the summer, as night would wane, Dad would beckon across the barnyard to come wash-up before we’d head home for the night. Naturally, we kids would delay, playing one more game of horse against the barn door backboard. But eventually, time would run out, and we’d be collected, scrubbed and loaded for the short trip home.

But winter, particularly the most chilling February nights, would be more of an ordeal. Since we’d mostly stay indoors, we’d be easier for our parents to corral. They’d march us to the kitchen door, where our

boots, mittens, coats, scarves and hats had landed in a glorious heap, following our failed attempt to build the “world’s biggest snowman.” Once sorted, we’d be bundled as if the trip was by dogsled via the Iditarod rather than by Pontiac via a few miles on U.S. 24. Then, we’d stand awaiting the adults to make their final goodbyes. And, we’d stand some more. Each hug, laugh and final story was exponentially increased by the number of grown-ups and their years of association. Eventually, even as our rubber boots were filling with perspiration, the car would be deemed warm enough, and off we’d go - safe and snug on a cold, dark night. As a child, I thought the delay was an interruption; but now, I see that it was a part of the journey.

A few months back I chipped one of my already-crooked bottom-front teeth. Luckily my horse-size chompers up humor top hide the snaggle-tooth for photo ops, but it’s quite noticeable when I talk, which, unfortunately, I have to do on occasion. I could have it filed down, but even pretend manicures make me flinch.

My dentist, however, said not to worry, dubbing me “charmingly imperfect.” I’ve decided to adopt this phrase as a mantra and apply it to all of my less-than-ideal attributes. The thigh cellulite that even half-Ironman training wouldn’t destroy?

Charmingly imperfect. Those laugh lines and age spots that no amount of Retin-A will vanquish? Charmingly imperfect! And how about my non-existent belly button? Definitely imperfect but seriously charming!

(Side note: I actually don’t have a belly button. A twin pregnancy wreaked havoc with my mid-section 15 years ago, leaving not only an umbilical hernia but pounds of excess, de-elasticized skin. The ensuing corrective tummy tuck successfully removed the flab, but sadly could not save the button.)

The point is, even though Photo Shop could charge me extra, these are the features that make me, me. And now that I’m in my 40s, I’m finding it much easier to embrace them (although I do still long for a bikini and will occasionally attempt Hollywood special effects to give the hint of an “innie”). In fact, I think it’s kind of cool to walk around with charmingly imperfect characteristics, like unusually long second toes.

(Another side note: I thought I had exhausted my list of charmingly imperfect attributes, but then the spouse read this and suggested a few more – bubble-butt, slight overbite, flat chest, invisible eyelashes.

Okay, okay. I get it. Thank you, Doo.) So yes, pre-varicose veins are creating a perverted but oddly-accurate map of the Mississippi River delta on my milky-white calves, but by God, I am charmingly imperfect, jacked-up teeth and all.

Peace out.

A miracle of choice Commentary by Rev. Michael VandenBerg

Nurses make the difference.

We’re looking for outstanding nurses to join our extraordinary team.

In a devotion from his book, “Beyond Words,� Fredrick Buechner writes, “After lecturing learnedly on miracles, religion a great theologian was asked to give a specific example of a miracle. ‘There is only one miracle,’ he answered. ‘It is life.’�

Psalm 77 says, “11 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. 12 I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.�

We all hope for miracles from time to time, but often we don’t see them. It is not that they do not exist or are not happening all around us, it is that we have an inadequate understanding of what a miracle is, or we just fail to look in the right places.

We are a peculiar people. When things are going well, we believe we are in control and life is all about us. When things take a turn for the worst, we cry out to a God we largely ignore and ask for a miracle. We must be reminded that God is not a divine Santa Claus or a genie ready to grant our every wish. He

is there to bring us into a life and relationship that has eternal consequences and wants us to know that as important as this life is, it is not the end.

At times I have people ask, “How I can believe in a God that does not save everyone?�

The implication is that this kind of a God cannot be loving, caring or in control. The miracle as I see it is that God has chosen to save us at all. This kind, loving and just God is always in control, but chooses to limit what he will do by extending us free will.

How will you choose? Will you seek God’s perfection, or will you seek to have your own way? As the Old Testament leader Joshua proclaimed, “As for me and my house, we will choose the Lord.� This is my choice, a miracle for sure, and I hope it will be yours.

A few months ago, one of my board members and a gentleman I truly respect approached me about burn out. religion A great heart coupled with years of leadership experience led him to encourage me to take a sabbatical.

I reluctantly agreed.

I decided to put the brakes on before something in me, my family or the ministry broke.

After spending a few days looking closely at my life outside of my job, I committed to focus on three areas: 1. Emotional — I committed to go to a counselor.

2. Financial — Make sure my personal finances are in good shape, including a will.

3. Family — I committed to take true, focused time away with my family. No emails, no phone meetings, no partial presence. I had to be all in, ending with a coming-of-age trip with my son, who is just about to turn 13.

Three powerful mindsets hit me throughout the process: First: Insecure leaders are dangerous, and all of us have an inclination towards insecurity and a desire for control. The pursuit of power driven by insecurity will lead

to one of two places — total burn out and/or a tyrant. To lead well and long, one must find sound identity that stands independent of successes or failures.

Second: I know I am not great, and I don’t need to be. Oh, how beautiful it is to have a mind quieted from the desire to keep up with or surpass my peers. I am a better leader when it isn’t power I pursue, but the empowering of others.

Three: I choose to pursue my spiritual life first. My identity is in what Christ has done, not what I have done or wish I could do.

Since my identity is already set, I can take my eyes off of what I don’t have or can’t do well and place my gaze on what God has placed before me. Because of this, I can love my wife, my children, the amazing church I get to work in and this community to the best of my ability with a heart that can be satisfied in this work. I replace jealousy with contentment, power with empowerment and self-made identity with Christ-given identity.

A faithful companion Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Garrison Keillor performed his final “Prairie Home Companion” episode last week, capping things off with a final visit humor to Lake Wobegon, his mythical hometown where “all the women are strong, all the men are good looking and all the children are above average.”

I watched the final performance on YouTube – a decision I regretted because for four decades, he was a disembodied voice. That might sound odd, but seeing his body took away some of the magic for me. If you love radio, you know what I mean.

While I didn’t know Keillor personally, there were a few intersecting points in our lives.

The first began with Fred Newman, his intrepid sound-effects man. Fred made each performance sparkle with accompanying mouth noises that brilliantly mimic explosions, trains, tornadoes and virtually anything that Keillor threw at him.

I met Fred in 1981 in New York City, while I was the host of the morning show on WABC Radio. I had seen Fred doing his “act” on Fifth Avenue and asked him to come on the program. He was an instant hit and went on to a successful career. His act caught Keillor’s eye

(or ear, really) and he soon became a permanent part of “Prairie Home Companion.”

I hadn’t seen Fred in nearly 25 years, but when Keillor performed at the Indiana State Fair in the late ’90s, Fred was approximately 75 yards away from me as he moved across the stage for rehearsal. I screamed: “Hi, Fred Newman!”

“Oh my goodness!” he responded. “That’s Dick Wolfsie.” Talk about a good ear for sounds.

I met Keillor that night. I told him my favorite “Keillorism:” “People who think going to church makes you a Christian must think that living in a garage makes you a car.”

This past week I relived some of my favorite “Prairie Home” episodes over the years on YouTube. My wife walked in the room and thought I had dozed off.

No. I had simply closed my eyes.

“We want people to know this is a secret gem for instructional cooking,” said von Eiff, who lives in Fishers.

Von Eiff said it’s the most requested class.

Her husband, David von Eiff, is a co-owner of the catering business.

Treating an itchy encounter with poison ivy Commentary by Anthony Russo, BS, PharmD, RPh, pharmacy team leader, Carmel Market District and Olivia Walker, Pharmacy Team Intern for Carmel Market District, Purdue PharmD Candidate 2019 Whether a seasoned outdoorsman or homeowner ocFrom your pharmacist casionally brought outside to tame an unruly yard, you’ve most likely encountered poison ivy. It is important to know the facts about this common ailment in order to help prevent reactions and alleviate Walker discomfort.

What causes poison ivy?

Itchy red skin, sometimes accompanied by blisters, is a result of coming in contact with the urushiol oil from the poison ivy plant. This contact can be direct, from touching the plant itself, or indirect, such as urushiol residue that may be transferred from your furry friend.

While uncomfortable, the rash itself is not contagious. Those suffering from poison ivy don’t have to worry about spreading it to others or to any other parts of their skin.

So I’m itching. A lot. What do I do?

Head to the Health and Wellness section of the Carmel Market District. Fortunately, there are many over-the-counter options for treatment.

• Calamine lotion and steroid creams, like

hydrocortisone, are topical medications that help reduce itching and redness.

• For additional relief, apply a damp, cool cloth to the affected area for 30 minutes at a time throughout the day.

• Resist the urge to scratch. The added irritation and bacteria under fingernails may cause an infection.

Ideally, the best way to treat poison ivy is to familiarize yourself with the look of the plant and, if possible, avoid areas where it’s present.

• Garments, such as long-sleeved shirts and full-length pants, can prevent urushiol oil from touching your skin.

• If poison ivy gear is too hot, Ivy Block and Vaseline can be applied every four hours to act as a protective barrier on the skin.

• If contact occurs, immediately wash the site with water and mild soap, taking care to scrub underneath fingernails.

• Make sure all objects (clothes, gardening tools, pets, etc.) that may contain oil are washed to prevent spread through indirect contact.

It’s important to remember that serious cases, when rashes are present on more than 10 percent of the body or the face, may require prescription medication and should be evaluated by a doctor.

If you think you have poison ivy, stop by your pharmacy. Pharmacists are trained to recognize which cases need further medical attention, and assist in selecting the best over-the-counter medication.

For Kristina Oliver, art is about the process, not the final product.

“A lot county of artists like control over their art, and I learned I’m the opposite,” Oliver said.

“I like to see where the art takes me and let it take over my process.”

Oliver delved into art at a young age with her mother, who she described as a very artistic and creative person. She continued practicing through art classes, but it wasn’t until her mother died that Oliver realized this might be the only time to make art a career.

Both Oliver and her husband quit their jobs Artist Kristina Oliver. “It’s a very healin October to pursue art. She said that was ing thing for me to do art,” Oliver said a blessing in disguise of painting. (Submitted photo) when her father’s health began to decline shortly afterward because she was able to travel to Canada to visit him.

After losing both parents within a year and a half, art has been her escape.

“It’s a very healing thing for me to do art. It’s the only time the chatter in my head stops,” Oliver said.

In January, she submitted artwork to the Hamilton County Artists’ Association. HCAA is a nonprofit organization focused on promoting the arts. The juried members vote on applicants, and Oliver was selected to join. She said the organization works hard to find opportunities for their members, which is how she got her first solo exhibit.

The exhibit features 13 original, abstract pieces. It is open all month at the Noblesville Visitor’s Center from noon to 5 p.m. daily, except Sundays. All pieces will be for sale with 20 percent of the profits going toward the Alzheimer’s Association and the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s to honor her parents.

“I hope people enjoy it because it’s kind of different from other art,” Oliver said. “You look at this art and use your imagination.”

Where’s Amy participates in 48 Hour Film Project

Commentary by Amy Pauszek

Dominick Wilkins of Fishers and Emily Lantz of Noblesville were actors in the 2016 Indianapolis 48 Hour Film Project. I movies had fun joining these talented actors in “Not My Job,� directed by filmmaker James Wallace. How does the 48 Hour Film Project work? Indiana filmmakers assembled a team, wrote, filmed and edited a short film in a 48-hour time frame.

The catch? The filmmakers had no idea what their film topic would be until the day they were assigned one, and their film had to include a name, object and phrase given the day of the filming to be qualified. It’s a busy, fast-paced first day, which includes creativity, patience and lots of stress mixed in.

The winning film is then chosen at the Indy Film Fest, and from there each filmmaker moves on to compete against other filmmakers and their cities across the U.S. Everyone always has a blast working together as a team in hopes of making the winning film.

Studio tour added to Nickel Plate Arts Festival

By Desiree Williams • news@geistcurrent.com If you’ve ever wanted to see where the magic happens, you’re in luck. Nickel Plate Arts will present a region-wide studio tour art from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on July 23.

“We have some studio spaces in our region that are so unique and off the beaten trail and are places that anyone who loves the arts are going to really enjoy,” said Aili McGill, executive director.

For the last four years, Nickel Plate Arts has provided exposure to artistic talent in Fishers, Noblesville, Cicero, Arcadia, Atlanta and Tipton through different arts projects. The studio tour is a new project that will be added to the summer arts festival.

McGill gave credit to another artist for the idea, though. After seeing various successful examples of studio tours in other locations, Nick Roudebush decided to bring that experience to a local audience.

“A lot of inspiration for the work comes from the place where the work is made, so (people) get to experience that,”

Roudebush said.

His shop in Noblesville, Roudebush Pottery, is one stop along the tour. Visitors will be able to stroll through the studio, watch the baking process and purchase finished pieces. However, Roudebush said he wants this to be more about the space rather than sales.

Aside from Roudebush Pottery, there will be 12 other stops along the tour. Those interested in attending can purchase a VIP ticket online for $20 or drive the tour themselves by printing out the map. VIP ticket holders get to ride the trolley to all stops, and will be treated to food and drinks.

Blueprint for Improvement: Multi-room home transformation Commentary by Larry Greene

Before Background info: This 1970s home in Zionsville’s Rain Tree neighborhood was in need of an update. With updates to almost every room in the house, the homeowners enjoy both the function and aesthetics more than ever.

Before problems:

After

After solutions: The goal was to create additional and more functional space with an updated look throughout the entire home.

1. Many of the first-level walls were opened up. This allowed spaces to be reconfigured, and for one to flow into the next— perfect for day-to-day activities and for entertaining.

2. The master bathroom footprint was enlarged, allowed for “his” and “her” vanities, as well as a much larger shower. The attic space adjacent to the master bath contained an unused sauna, which was removed to insert a new functional closet system.

3. The kids’ bathrooms were updated with new tile, lighting and plumbing fixtures.

4. More transitional finishes and brighter lighting were updated throughout the rest of the home to reflect the homeowners style.

Besides the dated aesthetics throughout the home, many spaces in the home had issues with function. The first level felt chopped up, the master bathroom and closet were too small and the kids’ spaces needed more functional cabinetry.

Moving mountains with pathos Commentary by Jordan Fischer We’re talking pathos this week, but if you think that means we’re starting off with Aristotle, you’re grammar guy wrong.

We begin with Sarah McLachlan.

You don’t even have to be in the same room to feel a tug on your heart strings when her ASPCA commercial comes on. In fact, I bet right now, even just me mentioning the commercial has that song playing in your head. You know which song.

Pathos, Aristotle says, is the rhetorical appeal to emotion. The emotion can be vanity, or fear, or anger, or lust – it’s pathos all the same. And if you don’t believe me that pathos is powerful, ask Sarah’s snaggletoothed kitten friends.

Here’s what Aristotle had to say about the second of the modes of persuasion: “The Emotions are all those feelings that so change men as to affect their judgments, and that are also attended by pain or pleasure.”

Note the “affect their judgments” part.

Anger and lust and even joy cloud our otherwise reasonable faculties and make us prone to things we wouldn’t normally do – like supporting an extreme policy proposal, or listening to country music. You won’t

find a demagogue who explained his policy proposals in a calm, sensible manner, but you’ll find plenty who hope to take power by whipping their crowds into a frenzy.

Now, if you were, say, a candidate running for the presidency of the United States, you might appeal to fear and anger by warning that criminals and rapists were flooding over the border. That’s pathos.

And if you were an opposing candidate, you might reply that voters “cannot put the safety of our children and grandchildren” in said opponent’s hands.

That’s pathos, too.

I’m not here to tell you who to vote for.

I’m not even here to talk about “truth” – because pathos isn’t about truth. It’s about emotion. As any boxer knows, if you can get your opponent angry – if you can get in their head – you’re in control of the fight. And many the politician believes if he can get us worked up, he can control our vote.

Next week we leave emotion behind and talk about the thinking man’s mode of persuasion: logos.

Dispatches Removing makeup stains – Most makeup stains, including eyeliner or mascara can be removed with rubbing alcohol. Pour a little over the stain and blot with a rag or paper towel. You may have to repeat this process several times, but it will usually work.

Save money on airfare – Instead of searching for round-trip airfare, search for one-way tickets. You might find two one-way tickets on different airlines for a lower total price than a round-trip on a single airline.

Freshen the microwave – Unpleasant smells can linger in a microwave. Cut up two or three oranges (or another citrus fruit), and put the pieces in one to two cups of water in a large microwavesafe bowl. Microwave until the water boils, then stop the microwave but leave the door shut for at least another 15 minutes.

Photo art app – Prisma is a free app that turns photos into artworks using art styles such as impressionism, cubism, anime and many more. There are nearly three dozen styles to choose from and each style can be adjusted to user preferences, making the choices endless. The app is currently available for iPhone users with the Android version coming soon.

Sweet-corn cooking tips – It’s time for sweet corn season in Indiana. Here is a quick and easy way to cook it for those evenings when you are a little short on time. Wrap a damp paper towel around each ear of husked corn. Place on a plate and microwave for about five minutes – longer for multiple ears. Allow to cool, then remove paper towel and enjoy.

Mordecai Maisel’s grave in Josefov (Photo by Don Knebel)

Josefov: A place to remember Commentary by Don Knebel Josefov, a small area in Prague, remembers the struggles and successes of European Jews. Ironically, the area surtravel vives because of Adolph Hitler’s efforts to exterminate them.

Jews began living in Prague during the 10th century. When church leaders announced that Christians should not touch Jews, Prague’s Jewish residents were forced to live in a separate walled area near Old Town Square. In 1389, a pogrom launched by Prague’s clergy on Easter killed approximately 3,000 Jews living in this ghetto. Residents of the ghetto were required to bury their dead in a small cemetery inside the walls. By the early 16th century, conditions were better in Prague than in other cities, and Jewish intellectuals came to Prague’s ghetto from throughout Europe. Mordechai Maisel, a wealthy philanthropist who became the ghetto’s mayor, built synagogues for the new arrivals and erected a Jewish town hall. In 1781, Emperor Joseph II, the son of Maria Theresa, lightened restrictions on

Prague’s Jews, allowing burials outside their cramped ghetto. Grateful residents named the area “Josefov” in Joseph’s honor.

As Nazis sent thousands of Prague’s Jews to concentration camps, Hitler ordered the historic buildings of Josefov preserved for a planned “Museum of an Extinct Race” and transferred Jewish artifacts from around Europe to Prague for his museum. Today, those buildings and artifacts constitute a museum complex honoring the Jewish history of Prague. Among the six Josefov synagogues open to visitors is the Pinkas Synagogue, with the names of 77,297 Czech and Moravian victims of the Holocaust inscribed on its interior walls. Another highlight is the Jewish cemetery, containing 12,000 jumbled stones and monuments. One of the largest marks the grave of Mordecai Maisel.
