Home repair camp benefits community

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com CrossRoads Church Pastor Eric Lohe knew the weeklong youth mission home repair camp would benefit GIVING BACK those in his community.

“Knowing that some of our neighbors are struggling with their home repairs, and with a desire to help them remain in their homes, we, the people of CrossRoads Church at Westfield, are delighted that we can provide material help to bring hope and housing relief to our local neighbors,” Lohe said. “I have been attending these camps since 2005, working as staff and a volunteer. Our church has sent a number of students and adults to these work camps. This year, we got to bring this to our community and hope to be offering this to our neighbors again in 2023.”

Lohe said 250 people, mostly high school students, from around the United States gathered in Westfield and completed repairs on 26 homes in northern Hamilton County from June 21-25.

In conjunction with Group Mission Trips of Ft. Collins Colo., CrossRoads Church invited high school students and their adult leaders

Westfield resident Karissa Griepentrog, who helped the out-of-town students, along with her brother, Isaac, works on removing an old deck and then replacing with a new one on a mobile home in Sheridan. (Submitted photo)

from churches in eight states, from as far away as Nebraska, New Hampshire and New Jersey, to participate. In groups of five to seven people, the crew spent the time with a homeowner doing significant home repairs, including mobile home skirting, building wheelchair ramps, constructing decks and doing exterior painting.

All of the repairs were free for the residents.

Kathy Wiltermood’s deck on her Westfield home was repaired so her grandson, Kyle, 20, could go outside in his wheelchair.

“The kids were wonderful,” Wiltermood said. “They did a great job. They went above and beyond what they had to do. It’s nicer than when it was new. They did other things I didn’t ask them to do. They cut back some trees for me. I had poison ivy growing on the side of my house and they took that down. It was such a good experience.”

Lohe said the construction repair material costs were paid for by CrossRoads Church, by the participants and through a Central Indiana Community Foundation grant. Lohe said senior adults, veterans and families who are struggling with home needs were the primary recipients.

“This effort is one of four church initiatives called, ‘For Our Neighbor,’” Lohe said. “We are trying to meet, know, enjoy and serve the needs of our local neighbors. CrossRoads wants to both be good neighbors and also involve others in helping community neighbors. We live in a great community that cares about all of its residents.”

Group Mission Trips serves 20 to 25 communities in the United States each summer.

Bird illness reported in Boone, Hamilton counties

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com

The Indiana Dept. of Natural Resources recommends all residents take down their bird feeders to prevent the spread NATURE of a mysterious illness that is killing songbirds. The illness has been reported throughout the Midwest.

In late May, the IDNR started receiving reports of sick and dying songbirds in Monroe County that showed signs of neurological damage, eye swelling and discharge. The department has now reported instances of the unidentified illness in 50 counties, including in Boone and Hamilton.

The illness, which does not present symp-

toms of other illnesses that affect birds, has primarily afflicted blue jays, American robins, common grackle, starlings, northern cardinals and brown-headed cowbirds, according to the IDNR. So far, all birds with symptoms of the illness have tested negative for avian influenza and West Nile virus.

“It’s a big worry in that it’s an unknown bird illness that the birds were being taken to the rehabbers and the Indiana DNR and other DNRs between here and the East Coast,” said Jim Carpenter, CEO of Wild Birds Unlimited.

IDNR staff have collected samples from birds that have shown signs of the illness or died from the illness. The cause and transmission of the illness is unknown. The department is working with the Indiana

Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory and the USGS National Wildlife Health Center to learn more about the illness and determine if other bird species are affected.

Residents are instructed to clean bird baths with a 10 percent bleach solution.

“If there’s food out, or if there’s water out, they are going to want to congregate,” Boone County Health Dept. Public Health Educator Claire Haughton said. “Now, they won’t really have a reason to gather in one place. And if they don’t have anywhere to gather, hopefully whatever this illness is will be a little bit less.”

Residents who see a sick or dead bird with symptoms of the illness are asked to notify the IDNR by visiting bit.ly/3hcfMGN.

Humane Society brings back annual fundraiser

By Haley Miller news@currentnoblesville.com Wine, Wags & Whiskers, an annual fundraiser put on by the Humane Society for Hamilton County, will be July 31 at PETS Embassy Suites in Noblesville. The evening of wine tasting benefits the organization’s daily operations and the Survivor Program, a lifesaving medical care fund, according to a press release from the Humane Society.

Attendees can mingle with adoptable pets at the annual July 31 Wine, Wags & Whiskers event.

(Submitted photo)

The fundraiser is from 6 to 9 p.m. and includes a raffle, silent auction, hors d’oeuvres and drink-tasting options.

“There’s going to be something for everyone,” said Megan Davis, HSHC senior communications manager.

The fundraiser spotlights many individual animals at the shelter. Dog and cat lovers will have the opportunity to interact with some of the adoptable animals, and bottles of donated wine will have labels with adoptable animals and their backstories.

Last year, the Humane Society canceled the fundraiser because of the COVID-19 pandemic, so the staff is eager to host it again, Davis said.

“Everyone in the office is very excited for it,” Davis said.

Davis said the event typically sells out.

Single tickets are $85 and sponsorship opportunities are available. All net proceeds directly support the animals.

Lifelong construction worker finds relief from severe leg pain through vein procedure Credits care team at Ascension St. Vincent for going ‘out of their way’ to answer his questions and concerns Bruce Brosius began noticing varicose veins in his legs about 10 years ago. But he said it wasn’t until recently that they started to cause him severe pain.

His wife encouraged him to seek care. Bruce said an ultrasound at Ascension St. Vincent detected clotting in both of his legs.

“The clotting was causing me a great deal of pain and swelling,” said Bruce. “The clot was probably the size of a nickel in the side of my right leg, near my knee. It was hard to the touch and very tender.”

Bruce said he believes several factors may have led to the varicose veins in his legs, including being a reformed smoker, his genetics and his demanding construction job.

“I spend a lot of hours standing on my feet, wearing boots and carrying a tool belt,” Bruce said. “I’m doing high-impact work all day long.”

Bruce had a radiofrequency vein ablation procedure on his right leg at Ascension St. Vincent. This minimally invasive procedure uses heat created from radiofrequency waves, delivered through a small catheter, to close off the abnormal superficial veins that cause varicose veins. © Ascension 2021. All rights reserved.

“Vein problems run a broad spectrum, from unsightly cosmetic issues to significant health issues and disability,” said Richard Chitwood, MD, a vascular surgeon at Ascension St. Vincent. “Our team of vascular surgeons listens to each patient to determine the care plan for their particular issues and provide appropriate treatment.”

“If I would have known that this treatment was going to be so painless, and that I was going to meet so many wonderful people involved, I would have done this a long time ago.” — Bruce Brosius Bruce said the procedure was quick and simple, and relieved a large amount of pressure from his leg. He speaks highly of the care he received.

“The team at Ascension St. Vincent has gone out of their way to be respectful of my wishes and to listen to all my questions and concerns,” said Bruce. “I cannot say enough good things about them.”

Bruce Brosius, who has been a construction worker for over 40 years, had a minimally invasive procedure to relieve his leg pain.

Bruce said he will continue to see his care teams at Ascension St. Vincent for follow-up care and that he is looking forward to working and riding his bike without leg pain getting in the way.

“If I would have known that this treatment was going to be so painless, and that I was going to meet so many wonderful people involved, I would have done this a long time ago,” said Bruce.

Vascular specialists at Ascension St. Vincent provide a variety of innovative treatment options for men and women needing vascular care, from injection sclerotherapy for spider veins to minimally invasive venous ablation for varicose veins. When bulging leg veins are uncomfortable or when you want help adjusting vein-related skin discoloration, our care teams are ready to help.

Noblesville Duck Race ready to float on July 24

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Noblesville Duck Race is about to set sail again.

The annual fundraiser for Noblesville Main Street is set for 2 to 5 p.m. July 24 at the Logan Street EVENT Pedestrian Bridge. Noblesville Main Street’s stated mission is to enrich the culture and community of the city’s downtown historic district by creating partnerships and programs to connect people to unique places and experiences.

Jenny Cline, Noblesville Main Street’s community relations and promotions manager, said the nonprofit is seeking to raise between $7,000 to $10,000 from the event.

“Noblesville Main Street and the Noblesville Duck Race have existed for 31 years,” Cline said.

Noblesville Main Street was able to conduct the duck race in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2019 event was canceled because of inclement weather.

The duck tickets are sold for $5 at the nonprofit’s orange tent at the Noblesville Farmers Market at Federal Hill Commons from 8 a.m. to noon Saturdays. Tickets also are available at Lil Bloomers, 876 Logan St., and Moonshot Games, 50 N. 9th St., in downtown Noblesville.

Tickets will be sold the day of the race if the 2,000 limit hasn’t been reached. In accordance with the Indiana Gaming Commission, customers must use cash or check

Intimate at any age.

Sexual intimacy can be a problem for all kinds of women. Whether it’s stress from your busy lifestyle, physical complications from pregnancy, menopause or following cancer treatment, or anything else that’s keeping you from feeling fulfilled, the Intimacy Clinic at Community Health Network is here to help.

No matter where you are in life, know that intimacy problems are normal and Community can get you back to feeling like you.

and be 18 or older to purchase tickets. Each entry purchased will correspond with one of the 2,000 ducks that will be dropped at 3:30 p.m. from the Nickel Plate Express.

“The ducks then float across the river to the finish line where board members of Main Street and volunteers from the Noblesville Fire Dept. are standing waiting to collect the ducks,” Cline said. “The volunteers create a funnel, and whichever ducky they pull first is the winner. First prize is $1,000. Second and third prizes are $500, and then we collect prize donations from downtown businesses and farmers market vendors to ensure we have as many winners as possible.”

Noblesville Main Street sells booth spaces to food and drink vendors as well as businesses.

“The businesses who are not selling food/drink items are asked to have something interactive at their booth,” Cline said. “Businesses in the past have done coloring pages for kids, duck-related games, and someone has even brought out a retro Pac-Man machine. As a 501c3 not-for-profit, the dollars raised go directly back into the organization to ensure that we can continue to plan and host community events as well as support our downtown businesses in any way possible.”

The event will feature children’s activities and live music.

Anyone interested in becoming a vendor should email jenny@noblesvillemainstreet.org. For more, visit noblesvillemainstreet.org.

Annual 4-H showcase returns in full force this year

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County 4-H Council board member Kathy Williams said although it’s exciting to see a return of all the Hamilton County 4-H Fair favorites like food vendors and animals, she’s most excited for children to have the full opportunity to compete this year. The 4-H fair will be July 15 to 19 at the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds, 2003 Pleasant St., in Noblesville.

The fair was held in 2020 but was not open to the general public. Animals stayed only for their program before leaving and certain events were canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“People were disappointed, because it is part of the summer,” Williams said. “You have Fourth of July, and then you have the fair and then the state fair. I do think it’s part of a lot of peoples’ summer itinerary.

They want to come out to the fair and see the animals and taste the food.”

This year, Williams and Hamilton County Purdue Extension Director Susan Peterson said the fair will mirror the 2019 fair.

“In 2020, really the focus was just on the 4-H exhibits,” Peterson said. “Like any time really, our fairs focus on the 4H’er, the exhibits and the program and highlighting that, but the difference of 2020 is there was no public really involved. We did livestreaming of things to keep the numbers and population down. We didn’t have food. We didn’t have extra events for families.”

Food and special events will return this year, and a livestream will be available on Hamilton County Television.

“There is still a focus on the exhibits, the animal shows and the 4-H members, but our producers, our extension homemakers and our food will be back,” Peterson said.

“We are bringing in things like two different blood drives and live music most every evening.”

Other fan favorites, such as the farmer Olympics, also will return.

“It’s a cool thing where kids do teams and they do farmer Olympics like running with a pail of water or a watermelon or things where you can get dirty, wet and muddy and fun things like that,” said Wil-

liams, who also serves on the Hamilton County Extension Board.

Because the animals left immediately after their shows in 2020, there will be two royal showmanship events and two supreme showmanship events so that last year’s winners have an opportunity to

participate. Royal showmanship includes llamas, chickens, goats, dogs and rabbits, and supreme showmanship includes cattle, horses, pigs and sheep. The 2020 showmanship events will be at the beginning of the fair and the 2021 showmanship events will occur on the last day of the fair.

“That’s a special event, and kids work many years to try to get into this showman program,” Williams said. “It’s really an honor to be a royal or a supreme showman.”

Williams said she expects the fair to be busier than ever.

“I think they are going to be excited to be back,” Williams said. “Every event going on lately, lots of people have been attending, so I don’t see anything different happening with this.”

Entry, events and exhibits are free. Parking also is free.

Another benefit of the fair, particularly for adults, is getting to catch up with friends.

“You’ll see a lot of people just standing around talking to each other because it’s a great place to gather with people you’re not used to seeing on a daily basis,” Williams said. “Sure, the kids are really excited because they didn’t have the same atmosphere last year and, thank goodness, we could at least have what we had for them because they work so hard on the projects, we wanted to give them the opportunity to shine. This year, we will have a lot of people who come out and watch.”

The 4-H Fair will follow the CDC guidelines and recommend individuals who are unvaccinated to wear masks. Because many 4-H participants are too young for COVID-19 vaccinations, the fair staff will clean hightouch points, offer hand sanitizer and ask attendees to practice social distancing.

ESSAY

HUMOR

Unintended consequences

Ear-y trip to the doctor

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

This week past, another young, physically healthy person died by suicide.

What happened? How could this be? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said it may be safe to go outside again. Indications are that consumer spending is up. Isn’t that a sign of high confidence? Shouldn’t we all be celebrating in the streets?

The CDC reported last month that teen suicide in 2020 was up 31 percent from 2019, and survived attempts, especially among young girls, was up more than 50 percent. Is it possible that the lockdowns, designed to protect our older and vulnerable, led to far greater risk for our younger and vulnerable?

Are we trapped in a mire of unintended consequences?

Are the mental health impacts of COVID-19 restrictions and the ongoing disparagement of institutions real? It is tough to know where to turn for respite. Social media, countless outlets of political drivel, being taught/expected to not believe one’s own perceptions of reality regarding political leadership, law enforcement, race, family, religion, community, gender, and disease … it is enough to encourage one to hide in a bunker and withdraw even if our cities burn. For those without the mental stability or brain maturity to make sense of this Gordian knot, it can easily be overwhelming.

Commonly understood, suicide leaves behind bewildered, frustrated and, often, friends and family trapped in some self- or community-directed guilt. “What more should you have done?” Like a rowboat in a whirlpool, the death spiral only leads to more death. Still, isn’t there something more than this place and time? To believe in ourselves, do we have to forsake a higher power? It is not hopeless. We are not alone.

Ear ye! Ear ye! I am cured! My fight for auditory good health was finally won last week after a visit to my local ENT, and because I have officially depleted my arsenal of ear puns, the scoop that follows will be mercifully unclever.

You’re welcome.

Readers may recall that in mid-June, my left ear became completely blocked with wax, leading to almost total hearing loss and an infection. Two Minute Clinic runs failed to resolve the problem, so I decided to meet with the top dogs.

I found myself in the office of my husband’s long-time otolaryngologist, who entered the exam room with a sarcastic, “Oh, it’s you.” (Danielle is my middle name; people with my official records never know who I am. It’s both a curse and a blessing.) After the requisite “How’s Doo?” conversation, he assured me I’d be fine, despite the trauma of my earlier CVS experiences. He’s a surgeon, after all.

He’s also a big, fat liar. I was not fine, because apparently, I had accumulated an unusual amount of wax that had adhered itself to my eardrum like a scab, and the traditional means of extraction simply weren’t working. At one point, Doc said, “I’m falling behind with other patients, and this is not normal. Let’s take a break.” To be fair, he did offer local anesthesia, but warned that a shot — in my ear — would definitely hurt. No thank you. I womaned-up and returned to my Lamaze breathing.

After much digging and scraping and air-blasting, and a little bit of internal crying, I was cured. I literally . . . ch-eared.

Sorry.

Peace out.

DISPATCHES Great stocks at or under $10 -- Many investors have never heard of these companies because they all have stock prices near or under $10 a share despite compelling potential for growth. But stock-picking expert Hilary Kramer thinks this makes them among the best bargains now in a pricey stock market that hit record highs in 2020.

Here are some of Kramer’s favorite lowpriced stocks for 2021: • ACCO Brands (ACCO). This company’s iconic office-and-school-supply brands include Swingline staplers, At-A-Glance planners and Mead notebooks. ACCO’s stock has sunk 36% in the past three years as high-tech products reduced the need for paper supplies and as the pandemic forced schools and offices to shut down. What investors are missing: ACCO Brands could be a big post-pandemic winner as schools and offices restock supplies. Recent share price: $8.09.

• Amneal Pharmaceuticals (AMRX) manufactures more than 250 generic drugs that treat everything from headaches to osteoporosis. The stock has lost 80% of its value since 2018 due to the opioid crisis. Amneal is expected to pay out $1.2

billion in settlements. What investors are missing: Amneal has focused its attention away from opioids and now is focused on other generic drugs, the sales of which are booming. Net revenue in the third quarter of 2020 increased 37% year over year. Recent share price: $4.81.

• Annaly Capital Management (NLY) occupies an unusual and profitable niche in the real estate industry. It borrows cash to invest in federally guaranteed mortgage-backed securities. The company profits from the spread between the interest it pays on loans and the yield it derives from its investments. In 2020, investors panicked that the value of Annaly’s holdings would fall so much that it would be forced to liquidate assets on the cheap to repay its loans. Annaly’s stock plunged 62% by April. What investors are missing: The Federal Reserve has stepped in to buy mortgage-backed securities to support the market and has indicated it will do so as long as necessary. The value of Annaly’s investments has rebounded. Recent yield: 10.84%. Recent share price: $8.12.

Hamilton County was recently named the 16th healthiest county in the nation by the U.S. News & STUDY World Report in a study in collaboration with the Aetna Foundation.

The study examined nearly 3,000 counties on 84 health-related metrics Altman in 10 categories. Population health and equity were the most highly weighted factors in the methodology, followed by education and economy. Data was gathered and analyzed by the University of Missouri Center for Applied Research and Engagement Systems.

“Our ranking reflects the long-term investments made by the county and our cities and towns in parks, recreation and open spaces as well as readily available quality health care,” Hamilton County Commissioner Christine Altman stated. “Hamilton County both attracts and retains active and en-

One of its lesser-known benefits, however, is that it also reduces inflammation. Some research also suggests that it works just as well as the migraine drug sumatriptan (Imitrex). To relieve pain, take a 1,000 mg supplement at the onset of pain.

For better health, try to get up and do some light activity several times a day, even if you have a sedentary job. Moving around triggers blood flow, clears glucose from the blood and breaks down triglycerides.

Young cast takes stage at Westfield Playhouse

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Performing in “Meet Me in St. Louis” is a perfect fit for Lizzie Schultz.

“I’m a huge Judy Garland buff PLAY so I loved this movie so much,” said Schultz, who will be a Noblesville High School senior this fall. “It’s one of my absolute favorite films of all time.”

Schultz portrays Rose, the eldest daughter, in Main Street Productions’ youth play of “Meet Me in St. Louis” July 15 through 25 at Westfield Playhouse.

In the movie, Garland played Esther.

But in the play, the character Garland portrayed is named Rose, the name of another sister.

“It’s a lot of fun because she is such a pompous brat of a character and at the same time you kind of like her,” Schultz said. “It’s fun to play someone so high and mighty and full of themselves.”

This is her first appearance with Westfield Playhouse. Schultz, who performs with NHS’s mixed choir and Mad Jazz, previously performed with the Belfry Theatre and Summer Stock Stage.

“The most challenging part is, this is easily the biggest part I’ve ever had,” Schultz said. “That’s a drastic change for me.”

Although the movie is a musical, there is only one song at the end of the play.

Graham Puterbaugh, who will be a Westfield High School junior this fall, portrays Mr. Smith.

“It’s probably the biggest role I’ve had at Westfield Playhouse,” Puterbaugh said.

“It’s fun having a lot more lines than I’m used to and being a central part of the show. I like how many different emotions you get to see from Mr. Smith. He’s not just a one-note character. There are a lot of different moods he has.”

Puterbaugh performs in musicals and plays but prefers plays more.

“I’m a better actor than I am a singer,” he said.

Zionsville resident Liv Keslin plays Tootie, the youngest of four Smith sisters.

“She is the funniest character,” said Keslin, who will be a Zionsville Middle

School sixth-grader. “She causes trouble and it’s really funny.”

Rachel Bush, a home-schooled junior from Indianapolis, plays Mrs. Smith. Audrey Hockins, who will be a Carmel High School junior, performs as Esther Smith.

Lilah Cross, who will be a Noblesville East Middle School eighth-grader, portrays Agnes Smith. Ella Crites, who will be a WHS sophomore, portrays Grandma Prophater.

Sam Vrtismarsh, who will be a Carmel High School freshman, plays Lon. CALL TO DUTY Richelle Lutz was going to be an assistant director for “Meet Me in St. Louis” for her good friend Elizabeth Ruddell.

However, shortly after rehearsals began, Ruddell had to take medical leave and Lutz became a director.

“It’s my baby now,” said Lutz, a Boyleston resident who is house manager

at Epilogue Players Theatre.

This is the first time Lutz, 68, has directed a youth production and her first production at Westfield Playhouse.

“I’m digging this, these kids are so good,” she said. “I was scared. I’m an old hen. I’m not a young chick. My fears were, what are these kids going to think of me because I’m older? Do they want a younger director? We have a stage manager (Amber K. Roth), who just graduated from Ball State in theater. Her father passed away (June 30). I told these kids last week we have everything negative you could possibly have, so it’s obviously going to be a great show.”

The cast of 16 range from ages 8 to 18.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. July 15, 16, 17, 22, 23, 24 and 2:30 p.m. July 18 and 25.

ATI to pay tribute to songwriters

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Actors Theatre of Indiana will pay tribute to one of its favorite songwriting teams of composer John Kander MUSIC and lyricist Fred Ebb. ATI co-founders Cynthia Collins, Don Farrell and Judy Fitzgerald will perform the songwriting duo’s music at Feinstein’s at 7:30 p.m. July 21 at the Hotel Carmichael in Carmel. Kander and Ebb created music for “Cabaret,” “Chicago,” “The Rink” and “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” Their hit parade features memorable songs such as “All That Jazz,” “Colored Lights” and “New York, New York.”

“Kander and Ebb are my favorite composer/lyricist team,” Collins said. “Singing any of their work is a true joy.”

ATI’s first performance at the Studio Theater was “Chicago.”

“Cindy played Roxy Hart and I directed it,” Fitzgerald said. “The two of us also were in ‘The World Goes ‘Round’ twice. I love the song ‘Isn’t This Better’ from ‘Funny Lady,’ and I also love ‘A Quiet Thing’ from ‘Flora the Red Menace.’ I honestly love all of their mu-

Artist has the Paris blues

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Randall Scott Harden loves painting European landscapes.

Of all his spots, Paris is PAINTINGS his favorite.

So, the Noblesville resident decided his Carmel’s Art on Main Gallery July exhibit would be “I miss Paris and Paris misses me.” There will be a reception from 6 to 8 p.m. July 22 at the gallery, 111 W. Main St. Gathering the paintings for the exhibit made his heart grow even fonder of Paris.

“I’m dying to go back,” he said.

His last Paris visit was in 2018. He had a group trip planned for 2019, but it got canceled. He then had plans for May 2020 with colleagues but that was canceled by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I have a lot of plein air pieces that are smaller and medium sized, and then I have larger sizes that are from the studio,” Harden said. “I have a lot of painting of the Pont Neuf (bridge) and the (river) Seine. There are different colors, different sizes, different times of day. It’s a lot of studies of the same places I’m doing in different ways.”

Randall Scott Harden hangs his painting, “Flower Market,” at Art on Main. (Submitted photo)

Harden said he painted half of the pieces during the winter in his studio.

“The other half are from previous travels to Paris,” Harden said. “I did four watercolors on location in Paris, and I got those hanging up.”

Originally, Harden was going to have the exhibit include paintings of Paris and collages.

“I decided I had enough to do a whole exhibit of Paris,” he said. “I have watercolors and oils but mostly oils. There are close to 40 paintings in the exhibit.”

Fabric of Society WEARABLE ART

Flight Burger

Art comes off the walls and onto our bodies this summer.

Fashion designers, weavers, costumers, jewelers, body painters, tattoo artists and anyone else who creates art to wear will be featured in this inclusive exhibit. This is a great opportunity to pick up new style tips while supporting local artists!

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 650 W. Carmel Dr., Carmel What to get: Burger flight Price: $11.99 Anna’s take: I was very surprised at how incredible Flight Burger’s burgers are.

There is a plethora of burger joints across Hamilton County and, after a while, they all sort of taste the same to me, but Flight Burger was different. First, you can order a full-sized burger or get a flight of burgers, similar to how breweries offer flights of beer. The flights are made with 3 ounces of Wagyu beef, so they’re still bigger than your average slider and definitely a decent sized meal for only $11.99. Flight Burger only uses Wagyu beef, but the owners don’t charge more for that option. All regular burgers on the menu are $8.99 or less, which is an incredible deal. For someone who usually doesn’t eat a lot at each meal, I personally

liked that it’s less expensive with the option to add sides and a drink for $2.99. I would suggest trying the onion rings because Flight Burger has perfected them so when you take a bite, the onion doesn’t slide out leaving you with the batter. Each bite is crispy goodness with the translucent onion in the middle. The mozzarella sticks also are incredible — large enough that I jokingly called them “mozzarella logs,” and they’re delicious. In my burger flight, I tried the Western Burger with bacon, barbecue sauce, cheddar cheese and an onion ring; the Greek Lamb Burger with lamb, tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomato and onion; and the Fire Burger, with Cajun seasoning, habanero aioli, lettuce, grilled jalapeños and pepper jack cheese. I paired it with a flight of beer.

Miller House: A mid-century treasure Commentary by Don Knebel

BE COOL! Our professional techs work hard to be sure you’re cool all summer long!

The Miller House and Garden in Columbus, Ind. (Photo by Don Knebel)

by Girard to eliminate visual distractions, and 50 feet of shelves and drawers to accommodate unique items the Millers collected around the world. Girard’s furniture, drapery and rug designs incorporated vibrant colors. Kiley’s landscape design, conceived as a continuation of Saarinen’s building design, included a long allée west of the house flanked by honey locust trees.

An unencumbered expanse of grass sloped to the river, and a large hedge of arborvitaes protected the house from Washington Street.

In 2000, while the Millers were still living in it, their house was declared a National

Historic Landmark, with notice being made of the integration of the landscape and the modernist house. After Xenia Miller died in 2008, the family donated the house, with many of its furnishngs, to what is now Newfields, which operates and maintains it.

Tours of the Miller House and Garden can be arranged online at columbus.in.us.

LIC# CO51300008

Last week, I described how J. Irwin Miller helped make Columbus, Ind., the home of seven National Historic LandTRAVEL marks. One of those landmarks was his home, considered among the nation’s finest examples of mid-century architecture.

In 1952, Miller and his wife Xenia decided to build a house on their 13.5-acre plot extending from Flatrock River to Washington Street. They engaged their friend Eero Saarinen, a Finnish-born architect famous for the St. Louis Gateway Arch, to design a house for their family that included space for entertaining business and political leaders. Saarinen brought in landscape architect Daniel Kiley, and the Millers engaged interior designer Alexander Girard. When completed in 1957, the 6,838-square-foot house was the epitome of modernist design, featuring stone and glass walls and an open floorplan. Steel columns supported a flat roof containing skylights. Four living areas, including a dining room, were arranged around the large public area. That area included a sunken conversation pit, designed

Too clever by half Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Kids love to tell you precisely how old they are. Adults, on the other hand, treat age like a tightly guarded state secret. With kids, the “half” in their GRAMMAR GUY age makes all the difference. My son isn’t merely “7”; he’s “7 1/2.” You’d better get the “half” in there, or he’ll take it as an insult.

It’s time to take a half-baked look at “half.” Specifically, I want to understand the difference between the phrases “a half,” “half a” and “half of.”

I’ll start with the low-hanging fruit “half of.” The preposition “of” is not necessary, but it’s also not wrong. So, when I say, “Half of my records are Beatles records,” that’s fine, but the “of” doesn’t have to be there.

What’s the difference between “a half” and “half a”?

If I had “half a box” of Lucky Charms cereal, this would indicate that the box is half full of cereal. If this was in my house, that would mean my daughter had dumped out all the cereal, eaten just the marshmallows and then returned the boring cereal bits back in the box. However, if I had “a half

box” of Lucky Charms, this could potentially mean that a ninja snuck into my pantry and sliced the box in half with his katana, leaving only a half box.

I have half a mind to stop there, but our arrangement of “a half” or “half a” has quantitative consequences. Much of the time it doesn’t matter, nor does it change the meaning. For example, you could say, “I ran a half-mile this morning.” You could also say, “I ran half a mile this morning.”

However, there’s a major difference between running “a half marathon” and “half a marathon.” A half marathon is a specific running event in which people run 13.1 miles.

If you run “a half marathon,” this would suggest that you finished the 13.1-mile race. If you said you ran “half a marathon,” it would seem that you quit the marathon (26.2 miles).
