Teachers awarded $12K Lilly fellowship news@currentnoblesville.com Noblesville Schools announced Jan. 19 two of its teachers, Joe Akers and Emily Crapnell, are winners of schools a 2016 Lilly Endowment Teacher Creativity Fellowship.

Akers, a media teacher at Noblesville High School, and Crapnell, a science teacher at Noblesville West Middle School, were selected Akers from more than 500 applicants across the state and were each awarded $12,000 to pursue an educational passion project.

The Teacher Creativity Fellow Program is in its Crapnell 29th year and gives Indiana educators financial support and encouragement to renew their commitment to the profession of education, ultimately

benefiting students.

Akers’ project will focus on the creation of an informational children’s book about sea turtles and the launch of a Little Free Library, both in memory of his daughter Grace who passed away last year.

Crapnell will use her fellowship funding to analyze the environmental health of the nation’s volcanoes, working alongside other scientists in Wyoming, Washington and Hawaii, resulting in the publishing of her research findings on a scientific website.

“As an administrator at Noblesville High School and now in the district office, I have seen the benefits of Teacher Creativity Fellowships,” said Annetta Petty, executive director of learning for Noblesville Schools.

“Teachers who have been able to pursue their passions have gained experiences and energy that have, in turn, informed and energized their teaching. The symbolic value of the Teacher Creativity Fellowships is also noteworthy; this special opportunity exclusively for teachers honors their profession and their personal commitment to helping students.”

Tracy Miller considers it a gift.

The 2016 WTHR-13 Home of Distinction, presented by Philanthropy MAWR+Design, will benefit IU Health North’s breast cancer program, which provides patient and family support services to those undergoing care and in survivorship.

“This is the first time we have been a charity partner,” said Miller, director of philanthropy for IU Health North, Saxony and Tipton hospitals. “As charity partner, we have a great opportunity to promote the event … every ticket we will see, 100 percent, goes to our charity.

It’s tax deductible.”

The tour benefits a different charity each year. The home owners who are building the new home selected the breast cancer program as the charity to hone someone special in their lives, Miller said.

This year’s home is on the golf course of The Bridgewater Club in Carmel.

The 11,000-square-foot home features an interior golf simulator, home theater, stateof-the-art kitchens and children’s play areas, among other features.

Nonprofit hopes to raise funds for addiction recovery programs

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Gina Bardach’s enthusiasm to help struggling heroin addicts and their families is more than just a calling to cover story engage in community service.

For nearly three years, Bardach’s son, Brandon, 24, has been clean.

But after seeing 20 of Brandon’s friends, all from Hamilton Co., die from overdose, she said she knew she had to do more.

attend the support group The Hope and OVERcoming, Inc. support group meets on alternating Tuesdays at 7:30 p.m. and Wednesdays at 7 p.m. The next scheduled meeting is Tuesday, Feb. 16. Meetings are at the Delaware Township Community Center, 9090 E. 131st St., Fishers.

So in October 2014, Bardach, 46, founded the nonprofit Hope and OVERcoming, Inc. The organization serves as a support group for addicts and their families and friends, but also helps addicts find long-term treatment options by advocating for families to send their struggling loved ones to treatment and rehabilitation facilities in Arizona and Florida for up to six months.

Since its inception, Bardach says the organizations has grown to more than 1,300 members, approximately 70 percent of which she says are from Hamilton Co. “It’s the fastest, largest-growing organization of its kind in Indiana – and most effective,” Bardach said. “We do advocacy work, so we helped with legislation at the statehouse to get Aaron’s Law (SB 406) implemented for Narcan … the antidote to overdoses.”

The bill, passed April 17, 2015, allows for overdose intervention drugs to be legally

prescribed to addicts and friends and family members of addicts.

Continuing her community work, Bardach has organized Face the Music, a free music festival fundraiser for anyone who wants to come and those involved with the nonprofit.

“All the money is going to be used to open a sober living facility for women,” Bardach said.

“Normally, tradition shows that the three less likely character types to get involved with addiction are women, people with higher income or people with private insurance. But now, all three of those (categories) are equal with men with lower incomes.”

To be called House of Hope, the facility will help supplement some of the need in Hamilton Co. “There are three or four places around here that are sober living facilities for women, but they only have 11 to 15 beds. They’re filled now, so there’s always a three-month waiting list.

This is only going to be one facility, and we might be able to put 12 to 14 people in it, but the thing is, we want to open one in Boone County for men, and then another one and another,” she said. “We’ve got to start somewhere, and I’m going to start here because Hamilton County is drowning in heroin addiction, and (awareness) is just not out there.”

The Face the Music festival will have, for sale, raffle tickets, merchandise and T-shirts and food from City Barbeque.

New research: Good for you You might have noticed advertising in these pages calling your attention to Current Publishing’s latest round of marketplace research.

Our data-collection company, SMARI, Inc., has launched its information-collection initiative.

We respectfully ask you to participate – it takes seven to 10 minutes – so that we may gain an understanding of whether reader interests have changed since we last commissioned such a study. That was three years ago, and those 36 months comprise the shelf life of research. You’ve read this before, but this is your newspaper. We aim to provide you the news and information that will most benefit you as a resident of our community. The most accurate and unbiased way for us to do it is to continually update our data, hence the SMARI project. At Current, news is what our readers say it is. We’re eager to find out what the market wants, and, rest assured, we will deliver on those wishes.

••• While chuckling over the New Hampshire backslide suffered by Sen. Marco Rubio (RFla.) - which means, thankfully, the Republican Party’s “establishment candidate” has a fullfledged uphill battle on his hands - it occurred to us that the Democratic Party learned that its voters, at least, prefer truth. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) was dominated by Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.) in the Granite State.

It blew our minds that trustworthiness and truthfulness suddenly matter to the Democratic masses. We’re not Sanders supporters, but we do want to see, more than anything else, Clinton made a non-factor in the political arena forevermore.

Ruined by success Commentary by Terry Anker Success hasn’t ruined us yet – at least that is what we hope. We move forward in life ever concerned of failure. Some of us even become so thin-skinned as to achieve hyper-sensitivity to perceived criticism of our own short-comings. Indeed, it is the rare human who dispassionately reviews one’s own accomplishments. Did we “earn” this accolade? Did “we” make it happen?

Most human achievement comes from collaboration. Sure, a good leader independently can move the ball significantly. And, one might argue, the team cannot win without a stellar quarterback. But how do we account for the personal contribution that we’ve made without assuming that our participation was seminal? How do we avoid the overconfidence that is often fostered, some might argue fomented, by triumph?

The pages of this newspaper, like the homes and businesses in this community, are filled with good people who are striving to improve their lives and the lives for whom they care. We aggressively pursue

education. We work hard. We think, read, and talk at rates unrivaled in our state and on par with some of the best on the national and international stages. Confidence is required to fuel this endeavoring. Scientific studies prove people seldom pursue objectives they believe beyond their capacity. So how do we manage to remain sufficiently self-assured to push our limits without becoming so arrogant as to tempt spectacular failure?

Certainly, we must remain vigilant of ourselves. Ask hard questions, and don’t take a pass for bad behavior. Too, isn’t subjecting one’s self to a higher authority a guard against conceit? Religious faith, a mentor of consequence, an old and trusted friend – each can urge us to challenge our own suppositions. If success is as dangerous as failure, shouldn’t we be as suspicious of it?

Q U O T E O F T HE WEE K The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is at all comprehensible.

– Albert Einstein

At this point in my parenting career, I’ve cheered for a kid in just about every type of sport. And though humor I’ve never had to endure a 15-inning baseball game or clavicle-breaking hockey match, when you consider my almost-professional grade status as a dance mom, you can easily label me as a seasoned sideliner. I know exactly the right protocol for field seating, how to subversively seek out like-minded parents, and when to show up with a Diet Coke versus an MRE. But yesterday was a new experience for me, as I attended my first ever Color Guard competition.

(And let’s be clear – Color Guard is absolutely an athletic team. Any activity where a child can be concussed by a flying wooden rifle if the thrower lacks arm strength, hand-eye coordination and endurance is a sport in my book. ‘Nough said.)

The first thing I appreciated was that I didn’t have to drive my daughter; she rode the team bus. All I had to do was show up, pay the $6 admission fee and locate the gigantic-cupcake-offering concession stand. So far, so good. But then an elderly woman refused to let me enter the gym. “A school is performing, ma’am. You have to wait until they’re finished.” What? I’d cut my time short thinking they’d run behind, but this was Color Guard. Military precision was kinda their thing. As I stood cursing my poor judgement and contemplating the overpowering of one blue hair, she finally opened the door.

Another group was folding their tarp and I could see my daughter’s team approach the floor. I quickly found a seat and surveyed my surroundings. Maybe a hundred parents, but not a sign, pom or bedazzled tee in sight. Note to self: Leave air-horn in purse; not that kind of crowd.

The announcer introduced their number; they danced, tossed and spun for about five minutes; and then it was over. I left.

I literally got in, got out, and no one got hurt. How do I feel about indoor, on-time, fast Color Guard competitions? Flags down, they’re my new favorite!

Peace out.

Mayor gives 3-step guide to receive tax discounts Commentary by Mayor John Ditslear

At the Jan. 26 council meeting, the trash fee ordinance passed by a 6-3 vote. In an attempt to better inform homeowners that might face hardships with the fee, the city city has recreated a three-step process so eligible residents might receive discounts on their property taxes, city utility bills and trash fee. Before a deduction takes place at the city level, a property tax deduction claim has to be filed and approved by the Hamilton Co. Auditor’s Office.

Step 1 – Visit the Auditor’s Office The office is located in Suite L21 on the first floor of the Historic Courthouse, 33 N. Ninth Street, in downtown Noblesville. Hours are 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more, call 776-9624, or visit www.hamiltoncounty.in.gov/443/Auditors-Office. Unless you have an approved application from the auditor’s office, you are not eligible for Noblesville Utilities/Trash Fee discounts.

Step 2 – File for Property Tax Deduction A brief description of the potential property tax deductions and credits (based on Indiana Code) available in Hamilton County include: Blind & Disabled Persons: Deducted is $12,480 from the assessed value of the prop-

erty. Applicants must bring proof of blindness or disability when filing. The individual’s income cannot exceed $17,000, and proof of income is required. The social security award certificate or a doctor’s statement is required when filing.

Disabled Veterans: Applicants must furnish the auditor with their DD214 and U.S. Dept. of Veterans Affairs (USDVA) letter of compensation. If applicants do not have both the DD214 and the USDVA letter of compensation, they will be required to acquire State Form 51186 from the Veteran’s Administration (VA) Office. The deduction applies only to disabled veterans. Within certain guidelines, these veterans are eligible for a deduction ranging from $12,480 to $37,440. To obtain State Form 51186, contact the VA office by calling 232-3910.

Over 65 circuit breaker: The assessed value of the home cannot exceed $160,000.

Adjusted gross income cannot exceed $30,000 when filing single and cannot exceed $40,000 when filing jointly. When applying, please bring your income tax return.

Over age 65: Deducted is $12,480 from the assessed value of the property. Property owners must reside on the property. Applicants must earn less than $25,000 adjusted gross income, combined with their spouse or other individuals on their deed. Applicants should

bring their income tax return when filing. The assessed value of the property cannot exceed $182,430. Anyone who makes a change to their deed/trust must re-file.

Step 3 – Provide deductions to utilities I must note that eligibility for property tax deductions and credits are determined at the Hamilton Co. Auditor’s Office, not the City of Noblesville.

Noblesville utilities: A $10 credit per month is available.

Trash fee: Noblesville Utilities customers who receive a $10 credit per month on their monthly sewer bill will automatically receive a 50 percent discount on their trash fee. There are no additional forms to fill out or file. Residents may be added to the credit and 50 percent deduction once their claims have been approved by the Hamilton Co. Auditor’s Office.

Noblesville Utilities, 197 W. Washington St., is open 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more, call 776-6353, or visit www. cityofnoblesville.org/wastewater.

John Ditslear is the mayor of Noblesville. To contact him, call the mayor’s office at 776-6324

Where’s Amy? ‘Where’s Amy?’ is a photo column by Amy Pauszek, a society girl and film producer and partner with Ever Film Productions, LLC. She may be reached at aepaws1@comcast.net.

“Where’s Amy?” was rocking and rolling out to the tunes from “Grease” at Bella Vita Lakeside’s new bar, “The Waterline,” in Geist.

Daryl Randall surprised his wife Alyona Yakovleva-Randall (Indiana Ballet Conservatory founding artistic director) with a 40th birthday bash with more than 150 friends and family. Guests included Richard and Donna Deer, Alpha Blackburn and Vern Fleming of the Pacers.

Friends dressed the part wearing black leather and pink satin jackets to celebrate Alyona’s favorite movie of all time, “Grease.” Bella Vita Lakeside General Manger Corey Bensley and Operations Manager Jimmy Burgess made sure everyone felt like they were at home and served specialty drinks and delicious food off their new menu.

Yep, it’s safe to say the night was filled with chills that were multiplying, and the power was electrifying! Happy Birthday to “Where’s Amy?” pink lady pal Alyona, and fire up for many more parties and events to come. “Where’s Amy?” can’t wait to see you there!

Jenkins returns to performing

17

PRESENTED BY

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Erica Jenkins figured it was time to get back to her musical roots.

“I can hear myself telling my music boys to follow their dreams and do what you are passionate about,” she said. “I felt I abandoned what I thought is me, and I’m not going to let that happen.”

Jenkins, a Carmel resident, will perform a cabaret-style show called “Songs that Speak” at 7 p.m. Feb. 18 at the Studio Theatre in Carmel’s Center for the Performing Arts.

“This is my re-entry into performing,” Jenkins said. “These are songs that speak to me and are a vehicle for my career.”

Getting ready for the performance seems right to Jenkins.

“This is a passion that you just can’t shake,” she said.

Joining Jenkins in the performance for a couple of songs will be Indianapolis resident Deb Wims and Ball State student Laura Merida, from Vincennes.

“I invited someone from my past and someone I feel has a remarkable future,” said Jenkins, who plans to perform favorites from musicals such as “Wicked” and “Les Miserables.”

Jenkins, 36, has been a stay at-home mother for the past four years for her sons Layton, 4, and Liam, 2. Layton is Jenkins’ maiden name.

She grew up in Columbus, Ind., and studied musical theater at Vincennes University. She was the Miss Vincennes University and competed in, Miss Indiana pageant. Jenkins won the Miss Indiana talent competition and was a finalist.

She performed a few shows in Chicago and

several at Beef and Boards in Indianapolis. Her final show was “Cats” at Beef and Boards in 2004.

While performing in Indianapolis, she started teaching with her former music teacher.

“I fell in love with teaching kids more than doing it myself,” Jenkins said. “So I opened a performing arts studio (Elite Performance) in Columbus in 2004.”

Jenkins continued teaching and commuting from Indianapolis until she was having her first baby. While raising her sons, Jenkins does not want to go back to doing shows that are several nights a week.

“The goal is to create new opportunities like this show,” she said.

Tickets are $20. For more, thecenterpresents.org.

to prevent scorching. Reduce heat to low, add mustard and cheddar cheese, whisk until most of the cheese has melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

‘Killer Joe’ to play at TOTS

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Acclaimed playwright Tracy Letts’ first piece, “Killer Joe,” will make an appearance at Theatre on the Square, 627 theatre Massachusetts Ave., Indianapolis, Feb. 19 to March 5.

The west Dallas family lives in a trailer home and struggles severely with money. The son and father decide to kill the mother to be able to dip into her insurance settlement.

Killer Joe, a detective by day who moonlights as a murderer, is hired to kill the mother.

“It’s tragic, but it’s also hilarious because these are people who are not super educated at all, and they will probably never get out of that trailer,” Director Lori Raffel said. “This is the one hope they have to go somewhere and to get out.”

Raffel said the play is definitely rated R, with strong language and some sexual content. She also said the main reason she can pull off directing the play is due to her actors.

“It’s really an important piece because Tracy Letts is amazing, and I just think it’s such an important piece of theatre,” she said. “Most people don’t do it, or don’t even think about doing it, because it is so hard to do. First of all, you have to get some amazing actors because

they have to be fearless and do everything these characters do, which is basically fighting for their lives in this trailer with Killer Joe.” Raffel spent nine months recruiting the actors for the play.

The play will be set in a cabaret-style, so the audience feels as if they are really involved in the family’s trailer.

“The toughest part is getting people to care about these characters, it’s hard to get someone to care about this family that’s planning on killing their mother,” Raffel said.

Noblesville-based E&B Paving was recognized by the Asphalt Pavement Association of Indiana for superior asphalt pavement construction at the APAI’s Anaward nual Conference & Trade Show, held at the Marriott East Hotel in Indianapolis. E&B Paving won its award for project work done at 106th and Illinois Streets in Carmel.

Steve Broermann, Cody McClintock and Ron Richmond E&B Paving and Tiffany Boone of the City of Carmel, accepted the Quality Pavement Award on behalf of the company in the category of New Construction, greater than 2,000 tons. New Construction was one of eight categories in which superior asphalt pavement construction was recognized.

Each project submitted by paving contractors was visited and rated by a licensed professional engineer using several criteria, including workmanship (matching existing asphalt around the new surface, uniformity of texture, smoothness), degree of difficulty and use of green technologies, such as use of Recycled Asphalt Pavement and Warm Mix Asphalt.

Blueprint for Improvement: Chic basement lounge Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

After

The goal was to achieve an engaging room to enjoy with family and friends.

1. The structural beam in the bar area was enclosed with rich, dark wood creating an architectural feature within the space.

2. New cabinetry was installed to feature bottles and glasses.

3. A built-in taps system was installed allowing the homeowners to keep their favorite beer on tap.

4. Two TVs were installed providing the perfect space for game day.

5. The built-in entertainment stand was replaced with a small stage creating the perfect spot for the homeowners’ young daughters to sing and dance.

6. The rich wood and warm colors were carried into the adjoining bathroom and bedroom completing the overall space.

Before Background info: This home is located in the Lynnwood at Plum Creek Subdivision in Carmel. The basement was stuck in the ’90s, and the homeowners were ready for a more custom basement they could use for entertaining family and friends.

Before problems: The homeowners love spending time with family and friends, but their basement lacked the function they desired. Even though the basement was large and open, the space appeared sectioned off, causing awkward and underutilized areas throughout. The homeowners were ready for a space to enjoy.

Winter Palace of the Hermitage . (Photo by Don Knebel)

The Hermitage: Arts and cats Commentary by Don Knebel The Hermitage, in St. Petersburg, Russia, occupies more than two million square feet and owns more than 650,000 works of art.

The museum’s collection also travel includes a large number of cats.

What is now the Hermitage began in 1764 when Russian Empress Catherine the Great bought 225 paintings, including 13 Rembrandts, from a Berlin art dealer. She soon acquired works by Rubens, Velazquez and other European masters and eventually owned nearly 80,000 items, including cameos, engraved gems, coins and books. Catherine kept her treasures in a building named “the Hermitage” she erected adjacent the Winter Palace, the home of Russian czars. Catherine’s successors continued purchasing art treasures from around the world and displayed them in adjoining buildings. The three million items in the collection, now owned by the government, include “Benois Madonna,” Leonardo da Vinci’s earliest painting, “Crouching Boy,” a Michelangelo sculpture, Egyptian antiquities, Greek and Roman statuary, Chinese porcelain, ancient gold jewelry and some of the most important O R A C L E

works of modern artists. The most significant items are displayed in five connected buildings overlooking the Neva River, now all called “the Hermitage,” including the Winter Palace, whose magnificently furnished rooms are included in the Hermitage tour.

Since the time of Catherine the Great, cats have lived at the Hermitage, originally to control mice that might attack the priceless art. When the Romanov family and its dogs were evicted from the Winter Palace in 1917, later to be executed, the cats were left behind. Today, about 70 cats live in the Hermitage, looked after by three volunteer caretakers. The cats’ exploits are chronicled by their own press agent.

Especially during tourist season, the large crowds at the Hermitage permit only glances at its extraordinary treasures. But even a glance at some of the most important art in the world makes the visit unforgettable.
