Council approves Employment Node District, budget Compiled by Nick Poust news@geistcurrent.com The Fishers City Council met Oct. 17 to approve multiple zoning ordinances city and further discuss the 2017 city budget. The next city council meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Nov. 21 at city hall, 1 Municipal Dr. The 2017 Municipal Budget was passed, but amidst this unanimous decision was the call for salary increases within the city council by Council Member Brad DeReamer. “We have the highest-paid mayor, DeReamer and I’m proud of that,” DeReamer said. “At the same time we have the second-lowest paid clerk, and that’s embarrassing.” According to DeReamer, the average clerk salary among second-class cities is $65,000. With that in mind, DeReamer’s motion was for Fishers’ city clerk to make that average. Since the salary ordinance was passed in September, DeReamer’s motion was to add an agenda item to amend the salary ordinance. The motion to entertain a first reading was denied by the council.

Among the many ordinances discussed, creating the most buzz was the ordinance proposed by Deputy Mayor Leah McGrath regarding rezoning real estate which had been for Sunbeam Development Corporation and Lantern Road use. The motion was passed by the city council, which means that land, including real estate from 106th Street to 116th Street, would establish the Employment Node District. McGrath said it represents the start of the Fishers 2040 Plan.

What it means: The ordinance’s approval means this land is taken out of the hands of Sunbeam Co. and Lantern Road. “Starting with Employment Node was important for us,” McGrath said. “There is a real priority placed on bringing more job opportunities that are quality and high-paying jobs for our residents.” After the approval of this rezoning ordinance, Ken Kern, representing Sunbeam Development Corporation, said he was “shocked” by the city council’s decision. “We’re a little shocked that now you’re coming back and saying ‘what was good enough for 30 years is not good anymore. We’re going to try to throw away your zoning ordinance and let the town decide,’” Kern said.

McGrath

A motion for a second reading was passed regarding the rezoning of a 44-acre piece of property on the north side of 96th Steet, adjacent to the Hancock County Line. Corby Thompson of Boomerang Development is looking to develop a 101-lot, single-family residential subdivision for Arbor Homes within the space.

What it means: The Fishers Plan Commission reviewed the proposed rezoning Oct. 11 and gave a positive recommendation. The property is currently considered suburban residential, under the Fishers 2040 Plan. “This Fishers 2040 Plan throws out the strict, comprehensive plan and lets us be creative,” Thompson said. “Let’s be connective. Let’s be vibrant. Let’s have diversity all across Fishers, not just in places, but all across. As a developer, it’s a lightbulb. Let’s go, let’s do it.” Arbor Homes residences, as presented, would cost an average of $248,000. Two other CalAtlantic Planned Unit Developments Zimmerman Thompson is behind average between $135,000 and $325,000 per residence.

Members of the city council expressed concern about the pricing. “We’ve got to be mindful of a mixture of home prices that impact every segment of our community,” Council Member Todd Zimmerman said. “This is about making sure we have the best product, the best prices and a mixture in our housing availability.”

What’s next: The second reading will take place during the Fishers City Council meeting Nov. 21.

A groundbreaking ceremony for the IKEA store coming to Fishers next fall was held at the location Oct. 18 just southeast development of 116th Street and I-69.

Joseph Roth, IKEA’s expansion and public affairs manager, said that last year 771 million people visited IKEA stores worldwide and that approximately 185,000 Indianapolis-area residents traveled to an IKEA store out of state.

“We are all excited to be here breaking ground at the future IKEA Fishers,” Roth said. “With 42 stores in the U.S., we are expanding our presences to key metropolitan areas, and it is about time we finally made it to Indiana.”

The store will have a showroom with 50 fully decorated rooms, a self-serve furniture area, a Swedish food market for items such as Swedish candies, cookies, crackers and frozen meatballs, a supervised play area for children, a 325-seat Swedish restaurant, three model home interiors and more.

“Starting next fall, we don’t have to drive across state lines to find IKEA’s unique products,” U.S. Rep. Susan W. Brooks said. “We are so proud that IKEA has chosen Fishers as its first Hoosier

home. Fishers has been transformed in recent years and is growing from a small suburban town to a thriving city focused on attracting entrepreneurs. It’s bringing residents jobs at top companies like IKEA. IKEA is recognized as one of the top 100 places to work in our country, and Fishers has been ranked nationally as one of the happiest places to live. With the addition of IKEA, I think it will make Fishers an even happier place. We look forward to showing the folks at IKEA the Hoosier hospitality.”

The first Indiana IKEA store is expected to bring 250 jobs to the Fishers area. The first IKEA

store opened in Philadelphia in 1985. The Swedish retailer now has 42 stores in the U.S. and 380 stores worldwide.

“These people believe to their core that they’re here to provide customers with a unique experience,” Mayor Scott Fadness said. “The city council, myself and our entire team is dedicated to providing a unique experience in our community to create a smart, vibrant, entrepreneurial city. There is a momentum that is palpable in our city. We are excited to break ground, and we will be back in the fall of ’17 to cut a ribbon and welcome our residents to the building.”

Every parent seeks to keep their child safe, especially during Halloween. holiday With food allergies on the rise, the fall holiday can be dangerous. The Teal Pumpkin Project hopes to shed light on food allergy awareness while still making trick or treating fun for those affected.

Fishers resident Dianne Collis discovered TPP a few years ago after signing up for information.

“I'm just a parent with a child who has food allergies,” Collis said. “I was emailed information about TPP a few years ago. Every year it's been growing in popularity. Last year we decided to paint one of our pumpkins teal and participate. I was pleasantly surprised to find I had to go to three different stores because the teal-colored paint was out in the first two stores.”

TPP asks families to put a teal-colored pumpkin on their front porch during Halloween so families know other Halloween goodies besides candy are available at that specific home.

“It's one of those things that it can be either/or. It doesn't have to be both. You can still offer the traditional candy treats, but they

just ask that they're in a separate bowl from the non-food treats you offer,” Collis said. “The non-food treats they're talking about are just really little non-expensive things – bubbles, stickers, bouncy balls. You can also get on to that food allergy site, and it has free, printable signs you can put next to the teal pumpkin to explain and raise awareness.”

The teal project allows children with food allergies to still have a fun Halloween experience without risking their health.

“As a parent you would always want to keep things normal for your child and not have their difference brought to their attention day in and day out,” Collis said.

A Halloween message Commentary by Michael VandenBurg Some rail against the holiday of Halloween, others relish in its revelry and religion good times.

The child in each of us seems to come out as we, this one time of the year, again enjoy dressing up like children, in costumes, letting a bit of our inner child show through and taking to the streets in the coolness of the autumn night.

In the eighth century, the church, in converting the Irish and Scotts, attempted to replace their Celtic druid holiday Samhain (pronounced Sah-ween), which was a night when those who had died over the past year made their way to their eternal resting place. It was marked with bonfires and sacrificing fruits, vegetables and cattle. As Christians began to replace their pagan beliefs with Christian beliefs, the day became known as All Saints Day (Nov. 1), and the night before Samhain became All Hallows Eve or Halloween. The sacrifices were replaced with Soul Cakes (much like our donuts) that marked the lives of those who have died over the past year, and beggars would go from door to door asking for soul cakes in exchange for praying for their dearly departed.

At times they would come to the door not with our familiar “trick or treat” but with a rhyme: “Soul, soul, an apple or two, if you haven’t an apple, a pear will do, one for Peter, two for Paul, three for the man who made us all.”

If you are a fan of Halloween and not a Christian, I hope you will remember the celebration of the lives of those who this past year have gone to their eternal rest. Remember and learn from their lives. If you are not a fan, because of your Christian faith, I hope you will remember to spend the time praying for those who have gone to glory over the past year, remember the poor among us in tangible ways, and remember how Christ gives new meaning to all things in our culture and that not only are we redeemed but so are our customs, culture and celebrations.

Happy Halloween, happy All Saints eve, happy All Saints day and happy harvest.

Show comes to Geist to celebrate bicentennial

By Heather Collins It is a show for Hoosiers, by Hoosiers, and about Hoosiers.

“Indiana - The Musical,” endorsed this year cover story as a Legacy Project for the state by the Indiana Bicentennial Commission, will be performed Nov. 18 through 20 at the newly renovated Theatre at the Fort in Lawrence.

The musical celebrates Indiana’s 200th birthday by revealing the history of Indiana through the lens of a big-shot Hollywood director.

Ashton Wolf, creator and director of “Indiana - The Musical,” along with nine local co-writers, wrote the scenes for the show. Wolf said it highlights significant events from the past 200 years and includes scenes such as an 1800s gunfight in Carmel, a parody of Beyonce’s “All the Single Ladies” titled, “All the Quaker Ladies,” and “The Great Squirrel Stampede.”

The show also incorporates notable film and television personalities from Indiana, including David Letterman, Steve McQueen and James Dean. The Wolf score is mainly comprised of original tunes but also pays homage to native songwriters and composers, including Cole Porter, John Mellencamp and Hoagy Carmichael.

“Indiana - The Musical” premiered in Fishers in July. Wolf said he wanted to extend the performance statewide, and the performance in Geist is helping fulfill that goal and expose the show to all Hoosiers.

“It’s a real boon to us to know that our project is starting to spread,” Wolf said.

The show also touches on what was a real boon to Hoosiers. In 1826, a group of Muncie residents were digging in the ground looking for coal. Wolf said during their search, the men thought they had busted through the ceiling of hell and feared the devil would come out of the ground, so the men sealed it up.

“Ten years later they found out it was a huge vein of gas,” Wolf said. “This literally changed the economic fabric of Indiana.”

Wolf illustrates this occurrence in the musical through an original rap tune titled, “We’ve Got Gas.” “Everything (the actor is) rapping about is historically accurate,” Wolf said.

Wolf collaborated with Hamilton County historian David Heighway to ensure the historical accuracy of the musical.

“It’s Still America (to Me)” The idea for “Indiana - The Musical” began two years ago. At the time, Wolf had his eye on Indiana’s bicentennial and wanted to write a patriotic tune. Wolf wrote and composed the song, “It’s Still

America (to Me),” and originally added the song to another production. During the premiere performance of the song, Wolf was playing the piano and said he heard the response but couldn’t see what happened.

Afterward, Wolf viewed a video of the audience’s response and discovered “It’s Still America (to Me)” was met with a standing ovation, tears and veterans waving their hats.

Wolf presented the video to Hamilton County Tourism and received a grant, in the highest dollar amount available, to produce “Indiana The Musical.”

“Oklahoma isn’t the only state with a musical,” Wolf said. “I think we could be on track to create an iconic musical for the state of Indiana.”

Continuing performances Wolf not only wants to extend the performance throughout Indiana, he wants to continue collaborating with local actors, singers, songwriters, stage hands, musicians and designers.

Residents interested in being involved with “Indiana - The Musical” are encouraged to contact the Nickel Plate Players at nickelplateplayers@gmail.com or call 317-572-5470.

“We believe the talent is here, the audience is here, the time is now,” Wolf said. “We’re not sending the money to New York and Los Angeles. We’re keeping it here.”

“Indiana - The Musical” will be on stage at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 18 and 19, with matinee performances at 2 p.m. Nov. 19 and 20 at the Theatre at the Fort, 8920 Otis Ave. Tickets are $15 for active military and veterans, $18 for students and seniors and $20 for general admission.

Very superstitious

F R O M T HE B A C KSH O P

It sure doesn’t seem that long This isn’t gloating. It’s simply reflection.

We had more than a few people look at us, mouths agape, when we said back in 2005 we were going to launch a publishing company.

We heard, “Yeah, good luck with that,” “They’re going crush you like an over-ripened grape and spit you out,” and “This is the wrong time to do that, because newspapers are dying on the vine.” OK, thanks, got it. In truth, that actually became fuel to develop what shortly thereafter became Current Publishing, LLC. As some of you might know, we independently were working on plans to do this, when one of us crossed paths with a mutual acquaintance. He suggested we get together and mine each other’s thoughts. So we did that, and after 15 minutes it became readily apparent that with strength in numbers – to speak nothing of combining energies and knowhow – we just might be able to get this done. Sixteen months of market and reader research, and funding, legal, staffing and logistics work ensued, and – it seemed like overnight, truly – our first publication, Current in Carmel, arrived in the day’s mail of Oct. 24, 2006. Ten. Years. Ago. Our dream came true, and it continues to flourish in our second decade as a locally owned and operated business. We can’t even begin to explain how fortunate we are and how grateful we are to so many, including our readership, our advertising partners, our investors, our vendors, our research firm and, last but nowhere near least, our colleagues here at this humble enterprise. Add it up, and it all looks like this: You win with people. In the end, it’s that simple.

Getting to this point was anything but.

It was a dark-and-stormy night Oct. 19, 2006. We were busy assembling our first edition. Sometime before 10 p.m., everyone left for the night … except for Steve. He had a few more things to do (including an hour nap in his car at 2 a.m.), and that lasted only until about 6 p.m. the next day, when the paper was shipped for the press run … only approximately eight hours late. Brian was pacing with a stack of unpaid ad invoices and a calculator belching smoke. It was quite the scene. We were housed in temporary quarters, “Cubicleville” at the former Thomson USA building at West 103rd and Meridian streets. We met a See BACKSHOP | Page 14

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Off to the races Commentary by Terry Anker With the rising sun, we all reach collectively for our smart devices. What messages arrived over night? What is the itinerary for the coming day? We run the rat race as if our lives depended upon it. Perhaps they do.

Whether corporally perilous or not, we can agree that we are all running somewhere – either toward our objective or away from it.

We move, always. Even as we think that we are standing still, we are carried along by those near us. As we consider it now, it all seems very exhausting.

So if we are all somehow tied to the race, how do we win – or at least try to keep up? Ask any experienced runner about their technique to victory and one will elicit as many responses as athletes asked. A sprinter will urge an immediate burst from the blocks and a full-on dash through the finish line. The distance runner might encourage a more methodical and deliberate approach to

triumph. Have a game plan. Execute on the plan. Win with the plan. OK, but how does it connect to us? Is life a marathon or a sprint? And if we figure it out, can we plan a strategy that makes it all a bit easier?

Conventional wisdom implies that life is a marathon and not a sprint. We are encouraged to hold back so as not to burn out too quickly. It all sounds reasonable, but sometimes it seems more like a relay race. Occasionally, we carry the baton. Other times, we pass it along for another to carry. Then we stand at the sideline and cheer them on – our hopes vested in their talent and dedication. Who knows? Still, if we are off to the races, shouldn’t we determine what kind of race we are running?

Are you superstitious? I am. I firmly believe that the only way the University of Louisville can win a game humor is if I wear my Cards T-shirt with a pair of Express jeans and abstain from Diet Coke for the day. And that hearing Rod Stewart’s “Forever Young” in full means a family member is pregnant.

I also never take chances with sidewalk cracks, tails-up pennies, spilled salt, or stupid black cats, for obvious reasons.

Why I am like this? After all, I’m fairly well-educated and can rationally acknowledge that a kitty sauntering across my path should have absolutely no repercussions on my day. Or that my moving one seat to the left at a Colts game shouldn’t make a bit of difference on whether or not T.Y. Hilton scores a touchdown. I know in my heart that these silly things don’t matter, and yet I can’t prevent myself from acting on them, anyway.

Part of my superstitious nature I blame on genetics. I am a ginger twin and have supposedly inherited special sensory connections to my sister, although it’s really only worked one time, and that was on her end. Furthermore, by all accounts, my maternal grandmother was “born under the veil,” and therefore had “the sight.” (I can’t explain what any of this means but it sounds cool.) And my mom is extremely intuitive; always knew when I was pregnant, even before me or Rod Stewart. So I’ve grown up with both an appreciation for trusting my instincts and the belief that “signs” foretelling the future do exist for those who choose to read them. Case in point: My daughter sang in a production of “Joseph’s Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” just one month before I was awarded a travel grant to the Middle East!

Anyway, I bring this entire topic up because the most superstitious (and awesome-est) holiday of the year, Halloween, is upon us. Weird things can and will happen, especially if you’re not prepared. So grab a rabbit’s foot, wear some garlic, and take care around mirrors. And if you hear “Forever Young,” congratulations! Peace out.

On New Year’s Eve 2006, we bade them farewell after sending the paper to press (on time!), boxing up all our worldly possessions and unplugging, maybe, four computers. We were headed for a more permanent home, the Old Town Shoppes at the southeast corner of East Main Street and South Range Line Road in Carmel. We all but outgrew that office in less than a year, but we hung in for nearly five, before moving to our now office/home/world headquarters at 30 S. Range Line Rd. What a trip!

Colleagues have come and gone (fairly rapidly in the beginning as we strove to find our sea legs), but the one constant has been Dennis O’Malia. He has been a vital part of this operation since well before Day 1. Some might not know him as an advertising sales executive extraordinaire and the one who really gave us our “go like hell” tenet, but as a former owner of O’Malia Food Markets. We believe everyone associated with us comprises The A Team, to which we owe a massive measure of gratitude. Even though we can’t mention them all by name here - Brian, aka Mr. Drysdale (see: The Beverly Hillbillies), would faint from the newsprint expense - we seriously would

be remiss were we not to name the folks we call “our bosses in the office”: Zach Ross, our art director and production coordinator, who is far and away the most unflappable/unfazed human around when all hell is breaking loose; Andrea Nickas, our advertising artist, who just keeps quietly super-serving our advertising partners with high-quality and quick work, as does Lara Acton, our ad traffic manager (a job at which either of us would fail in a heartbeat); Raquel Dowley, our office manager, who has built in so many critical efficiencies and is as detail-oriented as they come; Sophie Pappas, our micro-managing (in a fantastic way) editorial director, and her managing editors, Ann Marie Shambaugh (Carmel and Zionsville), Sadie Hunter (Noblesville and Geist) and Anna Skinner (Westfield and Fishers). Those folks and all their associates/charges really are the ones that make Current go, and we tip our hats to everyone. We wouldn’t trade a soul from that lot.

Current’s circulation has grown from 26,000 households in 2006 to 125,731 today. We had planned for expansion early on, but each foray into a new market was accelerated at the behest of advertising partners – even through the recession. Today, in addition to Carmel, we are proud purveyors of what we call locallocal content - demanded by readers through research, the information you can’t get from a single source anywhere else - in Fishers,

Geist, Noblesville, Westfield and Zionsville.

That research allows us to provide the content package that resonates with our readers, who linger with the paper and view our advertisers’ messages 2.7 times per single issue.

It’s a powerful combination. Too, we have immersed as fully as possible in the communities we serve, especially in the not-for-profit arena. To date since our founding, we have donated in excess of $1.6 million to NFPs, and that never will abate; it’s part of who we are and that for which we stand.

We’re often asked, “What’s next?” It’s an excellent question. To be sure, there are other markets – near and far – to be conquered.

Time will tell. For now, though, here’s a toast to everyone – EVERYONE! – who made this possible, not the least of which are our incredibly understanding and supportive families. Without them … well, we won’t even ponder that.

It’s all extremely humbling.

With all sincerity, thank you for reading Current.

To the future!

Fall into a better fitness routine Commentary by Kara Babcock

With the start of fall comes hectic and busy schedules.

These 10 things you can change or do in your daily routine will help exercise getting that workout in a little easier.

• Wear workout clothes all day so you have no excuse to not go.

• Find a friend who you can make your accountability partner on those days you don’t feel like working out.

• Schedule exercise on your calendar.

• Don’t go home after morning school drop-off. Find a class that is directly after preschool drop-off.

• Find a class that allows you to bring your little ones.

• Find workout clothes you love so you feel good about yourself.

• Lay out your clothes the night before.

• Plan a coffee date or something fun with friends for after your workout.

• Find a workout or class that has variety and makes exercise fun, whether that be a boot camp, dance class or yoga. The more variety, the more you will look forward to the workout.

‘Cabaret’ on stage Nov. 4-20

Local high school student helps choreograph professional ballet

By Heather Collins news@currentinfishers.com Erica Lohman, a Mt. Vernon High School senior, will debut her choreograarts phy during the Ballet Theatre of Indiana’s “Myths and Monsters” at the Indianapolis Museum of Art in the Toby Theatre.

The opportunity arose when Lohman, a student at the Ballet Theatre of Carmel, approached the director of the Ballet Theatre of Indiana, Stirling Matheson.

“I told (Matheson) I was interested in applying for a Young Arts Lohman Foundation choreography scholarship, and I needed well-trained dancers to work with. Once their season started and preparations

for the ‘Myths and Monsters’ show were underway, Mr. Matheson asked me to choreograph a piece for it. And I obviously said yes,” Lohman said.

Lohman choreographed a piece titled, “The Valkyries.” Lohman’s piece is one of four in the Ballet Theatre of Indiana’s “Myths and Monsters” presentation.

“I actually took a mythology course at my school, and I found that Norse mythology really piqued my interest,” Lohman said. “Eventually, I decided to do a piece about the Valkyries, which by definition are ethereal female spirits hand-picked by the ruler of the gods to carry slain war heroes to Valhalla (heaven).”

The Ballet Theatre of Indiana is a nonprofit professional ballet company that provides high-quality technical and artistic dance to the greater Indianapolis community while building relationships and collaborating within the established artistic culture.

“One of our missions is to help choreographers in the area display their work,” said Audrey Robson, public relations and marketing director for the Ballet Theatre of Indiana.

Lohman will attend opening night and said she looks forward to seeing the Ballet Theatre of Indiana dancers perform her work.

Lohman said she is planning to pursue a career in the performing arts. She is applying to several colleges with a goal of majoring in dance and studying choreography.

She said she admires the choreography work of Twyla Tharp (a fellow Hoosier), Paul Taylor, Gene Kelly and Bob Fosse.

“The dance world is filled with many opportunities,” Lohman said. “I look forward to a life full of performing arts.”

The Ballet Theatre of Indiana’s “Myth and Monsters” will be presented at 7 p.m.

Oct 27 and 28 at the IMA’s Toby Theatre.

Character Sally Bowles is a sexual outcast and a misfit who chooses a life of freedom and ignorance.

The young performer in performances the Tony-Award-winning musical “Cabaret” is a contradiction in terms. An emotional roller coaster.

Or as actress Cynthia Collins, who will play the role of Bowles in the Actors Theatre of Indiana’s production Nov. 4-20 at the Studio Theater described her, “she’s so messed up.”

“The beautiful thing about roles like this is that they don’t come around very often,” said Collins, taking on the part for the first time in her 25-year profesCollins sional career. “This role is so beautifully written, and the wonderful thing for an actor is that it’s a role you can really sink your teeth into. There’s nothing simple about this character. No, it’s not my life, but I feel fortunate to be able to step into Sally’s world each night and bring it to life.”

Set in 1931 Berlin as the Nazis are rising to power, “Cabaret” unfolds in the nightlife of the seedy Kit Kat Klub and revolves around young American writer Cliff Bradshaw and his relationship with Bowles, a 19-year-old English Cabaret performer.

Overseeing the action is the emcee at the club, which serves as a metaphor for the ominous political developments in Germany.

Based on Christopher Isherwood’s short novel, “Goodbye to Berlin,” with music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb, the musical debuted on Broadway in 1966 and won eight Tony awards. It was followed by numerous productions in London and New York, as well as the 1972 film starring Liza Minnelli. Collins saw the Tony-winning Broadway revival in 1998.

Acknowledging the show’s sexual innuendo and racy, lacy costumes, Collins says ATI’s presentation will be PG-13-like.

“We know our audience,” said Collins, also a cofounder of ATI and its associate artistic director.

“We’re not going over the line. Actually, there is no foul language in it because the script was not written that way. But the content is pretty heavy.”

Day of the Dead event held Nov. 1

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com For the third year in a row, Nickel Plate Arts will be celebrating Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead.

The Mexican holiday, which holiday begins Oct. 31 and ends Nov. 2, will be honored by the arts organization, which serves communities along the Nickel Plate rail line in Hamilton and Tipton counties, Nov. 1 at its Noblesville campus.

The significance of the holiday is to remember loved ones who have died, but in America, is often associated with the Halloween and fall season.

“Many events in this area focus on Halloween, but Day of the Dead gives community members the opportunity to experience a cultural holiday that occurs around the same time as Halloween,” said Kavita Singh, program director at Nickel Plate Arts.

“This event offers community members the chance to sample a handful of Mexican traditions that come with the Day of the Dead holiday, including music, food, traditional crafts, art, calvera skull designs and more,” Singh said.

All activities include: • Ofrenda making: An ofrenda is a collection of objects placed on a ritual altar

during the Day of the Dead celebration.

Create your own ofrenda to honor and celebrate memories of a loved one that has passed away.

• Calvera making: Children often receive delicious sugar skulls or calavera during Day of the Dead celebrations. Come and decorate ceramic versions to make and keep forever while snacking on a sugar skull.

• Fortune telling: New this year, join local artist Alys Caviness-Gober in fun, Mexicaninspired fortune telling including tarot cards, reading tea leaves and more.

Other Day of the Dead activities will include hands-on Mexican folk crafts, storytelling, live music, piñata smashing and Mexican-inspired food and drinks.

Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Not that we saw it first-hand, but it’s said that trick-or-treating has been a Halloween tradition in America since the late 1920s. In the British Isles the tradition of going houseto-house, in costume and collecting treats at Halloween, can be traced as far back as the 16th century. Why not do your part to keep this tradition alive by staging your own Halloween tailgate?

Here’s how to dress-up your tailgate in the Halloween spirit. Have orange and black Jell-O shots for the adults. Carve a pumpkin with your school logo. Have a tub full of leftover candy for passers-by. Have simple Lone Ranger-type masks for your guests.

Today, chocolate chip cookie cakes are extremely popular in supermarket birthday areas because they can be decorated like a cake. If you consider the sugar excesses of Halloween season, no one among us should fear the calories of icing and chocolate chips in their system. Here is a cookie bar recipe that can use up a lot of those little packs of Reece’s Pieces and has perfect Halloween colors.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE BARS Ingredients: 2 7.2 oz. Packages of Betty Crocker Peanut Butter Cookie Mix, 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons water, ½ cup peanut butter, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup Reece’s Pieces (11 trick-or-treat size 4.9 oz. bags) Instructions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cover inside of a 10 x 13 baking dish with parchment paper and lightly spray the paper with no-stick spray. Chop about ¾ of the Reese’s Pieces to expose the insides.

ece’s Pieces. Place the dough into the baking dish and using your fingers, gently press the dough to fit evenly in the middle and against the sides. Sprinkle the top with the remaining un-chopped Reece’s Pieces.

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until light golden brown. At first the center will be a little soft.

Cool the cookie sheet on a wire rack for at least an hour or until the sheet is room temperature on its bottom. The longer you wait the more solid the bars will become. Next, grasping the parchment paper, slide the big bar rectangle onto a cutting board. Be careful because the large cookie/bar will be fragile at this point. Slide the parchment out from under the large cookie and cut it into 24 bars with four rows of six bars per row.

On game day, box the bars into a plastic sealable container for transport to the game and wait for the compliments.

Blueprint for Improvement: Transitional bathroom cosmetic update Commentary by Larry Greene

After

After solutions: The goal was to create a comfortable, more aesthetically spacious master bathroom, while keeping the elements in place that worked most efficiently.

1. The existing vanity cabinets were painted to coordinate with the new fireplace cabinet color. New decorative hardware was added for an extra touch of personal style.

2. While the existing jetted tub functioned well, the tub deck needed a cosmetic update. The beautiful new wood-look floor tile was continued up the side and top of the tub deck, and a beautiful accent tile surround replaced the former outdated white tile.

3. The former alcove shower felt extremely small because of the limited amount of light and glass. The shower transformation included raising the shower ceiling, opening up one of the four walls, new tile, corner bench, large recessed niche and plumbing fixtures.

4. Other beautiful details, such as new framed mirrors, industrial light fixtures, granite countertops, undermount sinks, and oil rubbed bronze plumbing fixtures, were the perfect accompaniments to finish off the space.

Before Background Info: In conjunction with the fireplace remodel we featured two weeks ago, this 1990s Carmel home in the Brookfield neighborhood was in need of updates to the master bathroom as well. The homeowners were looking for the best design solution to combine function with style.

Before problems: The former master bathroom had efficient function and circulation space, but each area, especially the closed-off shower, needed updates to reflect the homeowners’ style and coordinate with the rest of their home.

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Custody and the Best Interest of the Children

Hire Us

Before Your Spouse Does DIVORCE & FAMILY LAW MEDIATION & COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE Custody Child Support Prenuptial Agreements Adoptions Education Law DUI 317.DIVORCE | www.hzlegal.com 11555 N. Meridian St. | Suite 530 | Carmel, IN 46032

There are two aspects to child custody—legal and physical. Legal custody refers to the ability to have input on medical, educational, and religious issues pertaining to a child’s upbringing. Joint legal custody is appropriate in most cases unless there is a significant breakdown in communication between the parties. Generally, as long as the parents are able to communicate and cooperate with one another on decisions involving the child(ren) without a high level of conflict, joint legal custody will be ordered and the parents are required to consult one another before making any of these “major decisions.”

The second aspect of custody, physical custody, is much more often the subject of dispute. Simply stated, physical custody refers to where the children spend their time. As an initial matter, parents may create a unique schedule which satisfies the needs of their children and each other. Often, however, developing a parenting time schedule can be very challenging. When parties are unable to agree, the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines provide a parenting time schedule that gradually increases parenting time as the children grow older, provides for a division of holidays, and allots time with the children should one parent live a significant distance from the children’s primary residence. It should be noted, however, that the Guidelines represent a minimum amount of reasonable parenting time to be afforded to the non-custodial parent. Often times, Indiana Courts will award a highly involved, non-custodial parent with parenting time in excess of the schedule that is provided in the Parenting Time Guidelines.

People often feel the need to “have their day in court,” believing that if the judge hears “their side of the story” the custody order will be in their favor. However, in evaluating whether to ask a judge to

make a ruling on custody and parenting time, the parties would be well advised to keep in mind that time in court is limited, and it is difficult to present all of the information believed to be important. A judge often has a limited timeframe to hear the evidence and limited remedies when determining a parenting time schedule. This is not to say that custody conflicts which arise should not be litigated.

However, once you decide to proceed to court, the final decision is out of your hands.

Finally, if parties are unable to reach an agreement, Indiana Courts will focus on the “best interest of the children” and in doing so will consider a number of factors in determining an appropriate custodial and parenting time arrangement. These factors include, but are not limited to, which parent has served as the primary caregiver; the child’s age and sex; the wishes of the child and the parties; the child’s relationship with each parent, siblings, and others; the child’s adjustment to their home, school, and community; and the mental and physical health of all involved.

Remember, there are a number of benefits to reaching an out-of-court agreement, including but not limited to, allowance for non-traditional work schedules, flexibility for holidays and more importantly the ability to decide and shape your future with your children. Being able to communicate and cooperate on these matters is a win-win for all involved.

Amritsar and independence The Children’s Museum Guild’s 53rd Annual

Haunted House

Now Open!

Commentary by Don Knebel Amritsar, in northwest India, is the site of the Golden Temple, the holiest place on earth for followers of the Sikh religion. travel It is also the site of a massacre that played a key role in igniting the demand for Indian independence.

On April 10, 1919, violent protests in Amritsar led British Brigadier General Reginald Dyer to impose a ban on all public gatherings. On April 13, thousands of Sikhs in Amritsar for their annual Baisakhi festival, unaware of the ban, congregated in Jallianwall Bagh, a six-acre public garden near the Golden Temple, where they joined protestors knowingly violating the ban. Seeing the huge gathering as a threat to his ability to maintain order, General Dyer arrived at Jallianwall Bagh with 50 armed troops, who immediately and without warning began firing indiscriminately at the crowd. People tried to run, but their escape routes were blocked by either walls or British forces. The soldiers stopped shooting only when they ran short of ammunition. An official inquiry by the House of Commons, which led to the resignation of General Dyer, counted 379 unarmed dead and 1,200 wounded. Indians have always

believed the casualty count must have been much higher because of the large number of people in Jallianwall Bagh when the shooting started.

In 1951, the Indian government erected a memorial honoring the victims of the massacre inside Jallianwall Bagh, near brick walls still displaying bullet holes. Perhaps the most poignant reminder is the Martyrs’ Well, with a sign saying that 120 bodies were found piled at the bottom.
