Lynn Strueh figured this was coming. U.S. 421 and Ind. 32 will close at the new roundabout begintransportation ning Nov. 2 for two to three weeks, weather permitting. Crews from Calumet Contractors of Whitestown – who built the original project – will repair the mountable curb on the roundabout center island after INDOT found it was taller than what was called for in the design plans. Strueh, a Zionsville resident, said it was clear semis were having trouble, so she figured something would have to be done. “The berm looked big for semis to get around,” said Strueh, who lives on U.S. 421, a half-mile north of the troubled intersection. “We watch all the livestock semis go by and all the farm equipment. When we were down there at first, we said we weren’t sure how the semis were going to get around the middle of the roundabout. So we’re not surprised something had to be redone.” INDOT will pay for the repairs. Spokesperson Debbie Calder said the agency will track the labor, materials and equipment used to perform the work and reimburse actual costs. She declined to estimate how much that might be. Streuh and other area residents said they will be glad when the work is finally completed.
“It seems to have dragged on a lot longer than we expected all together,” Strueh said. “It started July 6, and we were quoted 45 days, and that went a lot longer than we were first told.” According to INDOT, the project took 77 days to complete. “Weather was partly an issue, but finding that the existing pavement and ground conditions were mostly different than our pre-design test borings had indicated (added to the delay),” Calder said. Strueh said her two kids, who attend Union Elementary, have had their bus schedule changed three times because of the project. “There is nothing we can do about it. We’re just feeling frustrated that the first time didn’t get it done,” Strueh said. “My daughter says they are on the last bus to get to school, and ‘I’m always late, and the bell’s already rung.’ They get home later.” Strueh said the gravel roads on one detour were getting unsafe for hubcaps and the car itself so she took another route. After the new mountable curbs are poured, the roundabout will be closed without workers on site while the concrete cures. The detour for U.S. 421 traffic follows I-465, I-865, I-65 and Ind. 47. The detour for Ind. 32 follows I-65, Ind. 47, Ind. 48 and U.S. 31.

First lady visits TPCA to present reading award By Heather Lusk • news@currentzionsville.com To say the students at Traders Point Christian Academy read a lot this summer is an understatement. education They read so much they logged more minutes reading than any other school in Indiana, as tracked by the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge. “For a school our size, it really is an achievement,” said Beth Kerr, the school’s media specialist. “It’s an achievement that you should not forget.” On Oct. 26 Indiana’s first lady Karen Pence honored the school with a “Best in State” plaque recognizing their achievement of reading 267,586 minutes during the summer of 2015. A total of 1,401,239 children from 28 countries participated in the program, logging 286,611,349 minutes this summer. One hundred and forty TCPA students in first through seventh grade chose to participate, just below half of those eligible. Pence, a former teacher, encouraged the children to read to prevent a “summer slide.” “Research shows that if they’re not keeping their mind engaged they have to catch up

(when school resumes),” Pence said. She gave students suggestions of some of her favorite books — “Harriet the Spy,” “The Trumpet of the Swan” and “Rascal” — and encouraged them to continue reading for fun. “When you read a book, tell your friends about it,” she said. This is the second consecutive year TCPA students were the top school in Indiana. Last year they logged approximately 50,000 fewer minutes but ranked first in their initial year of the program. Scholastic has coordinated the Summer Reading Challenge for nine years. In May, Pence visited the school to encour-
age summer reading and to present the students with 500 books on behalf of Scholastic, which donates books to the first lady in each state to present to a school selected as the ambassador for the program. “Every student was able to take home at least one brand new book to keep,” Kerr said. Kerr, who coordinated the event, thanked Pence for her support. “I can’t express the level of excitement to receive an encouraging note during the summer,” she said. “You did your part,” said Pence to the students. “I’m really proud of you. Well done.”

Proposed new building could solve 2 dilemmas By Ann Marie Shambaugh annmarie@youarecurrent.com Zionsville officials are working on a plan they hope will solve relocation problems for two town entities and relocation save money at the same time. The Zionsville Town Council is expected to vote Monday on a plan to pay half the cost to construct a new home for the Zion Nature Center, which could also serve as a temporary town hall if needed. The estimated 5,000-square-foot building is proposed on town land near Heritage Trail Park on S. 875 E., just south of E. 400 S. The proposed plan calls for the town to pay $300,000 from its cumulative capital development fund and for the other $300,000 to come from the parks and recreation department’s capital fund. The current town hall is housed in a 45-yearold former church building that was nearly condemned approximately two years ago. Officials are primarily considering two options to deal with problems stemming from the aging structure: make major renovations, or build a new town hall just north of the old one. If a new town hall is built, officials plan to

use Tax Increment Financing funds generated from new retail that would be built on the site of the current town hall to help pay for it. That means city employees would need to find a new home in the meantime, and the town’s lack of a relocation space has already led to lost deals with companies looking to build on the site immediately. “We’ve lost a deal or two because we need to move out right away,” Mayor Jeff Papa said. “We have nowhere to go.” Even if the town elects to renovate its current building, Papa said a backup site is needed in case the deteriorating building is condemned first. The town considered renting temporary pods and setting them up at
Zionsville Community High School, but with a price tag of $300,000 or more and potential disruptions to students, officials decided this was not an ideal solution. Meanwhile, Zionsville Community Schools officials have told town officials the building currently housing the Zion Nature Center – which is owned by ZCS – will one day likely be needed for administration or other purposes as the district continues to grow. Earlier this year, the town considered purchasing a home in the nearby Sugarbush neighborhood to temporarily house the nature center, but bringing it to ADA compliance and making other changes could cost the parks board an estimated $400,000, Papa said. Papa said building a new home for the nature center is expected to cost around $600,000, and with the town and parks board splitting the cost, both entities would end up saving money. If the project is approved, Papa is hoping that much of the prep work can be done before winter with construction beginning “as soon as it thaws.” “We’ll move as quickly as we can, because we’d want to be able to let the schools know the plan for the current site,” he said. “And the sooner we have an emergency backup for town hall, the better.”

Market shows upside of old junk By Kelsey Ligon • news@currentzionsville.com In honor of America Recycles Day, the Zionsville Cultural District is hosting the Do It Again Recycled Art Market, event which celebrates art and the environment. The market offers families the opportunity to view, purchase and create art that has been repurposed or reclaimed. “We want to create a coming-and-going atmosphere at the market,” said Jennifer Lawrence, executive director of the Boone County Solid Waste Management District. The event goes from Lawrence 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 7 at the SullivanMunce Cultural Center and features several opportunities to learn about repurposing. Marketgoers will have the opportunity to bid on rain barrels that have been painted with the “Dream Green” theme. The barrels are made from reclaimed food-grade barrels. In addition to the auction, participants can exchange 10 plastic bags for a reusable bag. Families will also have the opportunity

to create recycled art at the five-minute art tables, which will be available all day. The junk sculpture table will allow people to create art from items that would otherwise be thrown away. The Zionsville Cultural District hopes this will encourage people to be more creative with how they think about old junk laying around the house. Participants will also have the opportunity to contribute to a “Dream Green” garland. People can write down their dreams for how to make the world greener on ribbon strands, and the ribbons will be added to the community garland. “[Families] will be able to see how reuse is a step even before recycling is considered,” Lawrence said.

In 1965, the Traders Point Hunt Club celebrated the opening of its new club house. (Submitted photo)
Club members enjoy the chase By Terri Horvath • news@currentzionsville.com The baying of the hounds, the thundering gallop of the horses, the inevitable shouting of “talley-ho” – these back in the day are the sounds clearly identifying a Traders Point Hunt Club foxhunting event. All that’s missing is the crying lament of the fox, which no longer accompanies the chase. Instead the scent of a fox is laid to mark the trail. Like other North American foxhunting clubs, Zionsville members prefer the chase over the kill. The first foxhunting activity in America was imported from England by Robert Brooke in 1650, according to to the Masters of Fox-
hounds Association of America. Central Indiana enthusiasts, however, waited until 1930 to join in the activity, at least on an organizational level. Local residents Thomas Ruckelshaus and Russel Fortune, Jr. held the first series of horseback jaunts. Those led to the formation of the Traders Point Hunt Club on Nov. 14, 1931. At the time, riders explored the hills and valleys along Eagle Creek from 56th Street to 96th Street. Urban sprawl, however, broke the open territory into smaller sections. Traders Point remained as home base, but the club sought out other lands in central Indiana for their events. The club’s official hunt season spans from mid-October through February.

Emily Kennerk’s award-winning piece, “Whisper,” showcased the power of words.
Artist Emily Kennerk of Zionsville made a lot of noise at the recent ArtPrize international art competition in Grand Rapids, Mich., literally. With earplugs in, Kennerk patiently explained to the thousands of attendees during the 19-day event the idea of her piece, “Whisper.” Constructed of an 80-foot table complete with place settings with wiring attached underneath the table to a microphone, the piece showcased the power of what we say, the heard and unheard. As attendees whispered into the microphone the table shook with place settings falling to the ground. Her originality resulted in the piece reaching the public and juried top 20 out of 1,550 works of art and winning the Time-Based Public Vote $12,500 award. Kennerk told the crowd, “I had a 90-year-old tell me of her ‘small voice,’ but when she stepped to the microphone and spoke, she shook the table. At that moment I thought, ‘I’ve already won.’”

Hummingbirds, geese make good company Commentary by Ward Degler The hummingbird feeder hangs abandoned on the front porch. It sways in the breeze, the remaining nectar turning plain talk cloudy from neglect. The birds are gone. It must have been at the first hint of frost that they gathered, turned south and left. It’s always been a mystery to me how they manage to fly from our village in the Midwest to the Gulf of Mexico and then make a nonstop flight 500 miles across open water. It seems impossible, considering these tiny creatures have such a high rate of metabolism that whatever they consume is used up in a little more than a half-hour. They could literally starve to death in just a few hours. A rubythroated hummingbird will eat its own body weight in nectar every day. At night the birds activate a sort of hibernation torpor that slows everything down and enables them to survive until daylight. During the day, their hearts beat up to 1,250 beats every minute.
Despite their high-speed metabolism, hummingbirds manage to store fat to see them through migration. I imagine they are pretty frazzled by the time they reach the shores of Mexico. Canada geese, on the other hand – also migratory birds – are more indolent and laid back. Sometimes they don’t migrate at all, but stay year-round wherever there is open water. The ones that do migrate spend their summers in Canada and the northern states and fly south as far as Texas for the winter months. Back in the early years of the 20th century, Canada geese had been so overhunted as to be in danger of extinction. The government stepped in, banned further hunting, initiated a re-population program and put the birds on the protected list. The pendulum swings from one extreme to the other, of course, and once protected, the birds replenished themselves, multiplied and soon became a nuisance. Every river, stream, farm pond and subur-

ban retention pond is now a haven for geese. People spend hours cleaning their sidewalks and driveways and carefully avoiding nesting areas. Geese are notoriously territorial and can quickly make you regret trespassing. I spend summer days enjoying the hummingbirds as they land on the feeder or hover outside our front window evaluating their reflection in the glass. The Canada geese, too, are fun to watch when flying in their sloppy V formations from the suburbs to the farm fields and back again. I’ll bring in the hummingbird feeder now, clean it and store it for the winter. Then I’ll hang it fresh with nectar in the spring and wait for the birds to return. Meanwhile, the geese will keep me company. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

Lone Zionsville ballot item to determine financial future of ZCS

By Sam Elliott • news@currentzionsville.com The only item on the Nov. 3 ballot in Zionsville will help determine the financial future of Zionsville Community Schools. The district’s tax referendum that cover story passed in 2012 is expiring at the end of the calendar year. Without a renewal in November, ZCS will be forced to reinstate the cuts in place from 2010-12 — including the loss of as many as 120 employees with class sizes ballooning to 40 or more students. Those 2010 cuts were the result of changes in the state’s school funding formula, which dropped ZCS to the unwanted distinction of being the lowest-funded school district in Indiana. “They changed the school funding formula and unfortunately during that change communities like Zionsville were harmed to the point of, if you look at what we get from the state, we’re about $710 less per student than the average school district,” said Mike Copher, a Zionsville parent of three students in the district and an organizer with the Zionsville Yes campaign. “This problem is not of our own making,” he added. “It was given to us by the state. If you look at 2006, 2007 and earlier, the district was probably about as well funded as any in the state, and those dollars were taken away.” The district has been proactive in working with the state legislature to create a new funding formula to bring dollars back to ZCS, but it’s a process district officials say will take time. They’re hopeful the proposed referendum’s six-year lifespan will provide stability to ZCS and give time for the district to continue working for more funding. “We’ve sort of loosened the lid on the jar of that, so to speak, with the legislature,” ZSC Supt. Dr. Scott Robison said. “They’ve recognized and readily admitted that it was a broken funding formula. They did some things to kind of move things in the right direction, but our lowest-funded status is really a status that does not allow us to have an excellent school district with the funding provided. It’s clear that we’ve done many things to live within our means. We just don’t have enough means to provide an excellent school experience for young people based on the state funding.” The district’s successful 2012 referendum allowed for teaching positions and programs lost to be restored, bringing class sizes back down to optimal levels. “Every dollar that was raised through the referendum has gone to fund teachers. I think it’s 79 teaching positions,” said Mary Reid, a parent of three ZCS students and an organizer with the Zionsville Yes campaign. “This money wasn’t put into a new building or anything. It’s stated very clearly every dollar goes to funding teaching positions, and that’s exactly what will happen. “I don’t think a lot of people realize that the current ref-

erendum actually expires,” she added. “This isn’t a new one (in addition to the current one), and we still need it. We have to make sure people know it expires and there’s no do-over. When that’s gone, if we don’t replace it with this, we’re back in a world of hurt.” The referendum maintains the current tax rate — a maximum of 24 cents per $100 of net assessed value — and could be decreased but never increased depending on state funding in the next six years. Should the referendum fail, effects will be felt before next fall’s school year begins. “We’re already the leanest in most categories that I know of for a 6,500-student district,” Robison said. “We simply need to make sure we don’t go back to the ugliness of 2011. It would become a numbers game. What would occur [if the referendum fails] is the loss of programs … Not only would those not be restored, but we would see losses — and obviously this would be pending board decision — but the board would have to make cuts of about 120 staff. That would be a combination of administrators, support staff and teachers.” The Zionsville Town Council unanimously passed a resolution at its most recent meeting in support of the school district’s referendum, noting that the success level of ZCS can affect even those without children in the district by affecting property values. “If communities around us begin to feel Zionsville’s not supporting their school district, our home values are going to go down,” Copher said. “If you’re an empty-nester, you don’t want to have that housing value going down at the time you need it
to be the most valuable.” “If you look at the studies about housing values and community safety, those are also strongly correlated with excellent schools, and we don’t want that to backslide into the community,” Robison added. “It is imperative that people vote yes and especially folks who have invested in this community and have high hopes for their children in life.” Unlike 2012, opponents have not organized to urge people to vote against the referendum. At that time, a group called Zionsville Taxpayers for Responsible Education worked to oppose the district’s referendum. The group’s website is no longer operational and messages left at the group’s Facebook page — inactive since 2012 — went unanswered.

Girl power
F R O M T HE BA C KSH O P Across the table comes a forecast We had occasion to dine with a customer and his bride recently. The discussion, of course, turned to politics, as inevitably is the case when we all get together. Our guest is a rather astute fellow, well educated and on the corporate fast track, it seems. We talked about the Republican Party, and whether it really knows what the heck it is doing. Our guest was quick to point out that presidential aspirant Donald Trump (R-Billions) would fade after the holidays. Then came forth the poll results showing Trump trailing Ben Carson (R-Md.) in Iowa. Is this the beginning of the end, as our guest believes? It well could be, but we all agreed that after the holidays is the time to really zone in on results. You may find it as interesting as we did that our guest was quick to note John Kasich (R-Ohio) is, in his opinion, an “incredibly viable challenger” and “I think his numbers will improve” in the new year. We’re not so sure, but that would be interesting to watch. ••• We were pretty much in awe of the new roundabout INDOT constructed at Michigan Road and Ind. 32, but we don’t drive big rigs. We’re thrilled the roundabout is there anything but that traffic light, the one many northbound and southbound trucks often ignored – and see it as an improvement. Alas, the big-rig drivers don’t feel the same way, saying the inside curbs are too tall, and so INDOT is making modifications to accommodate the trucks. Yes, it’s a temporary inconvenience, but it’s no less aggravating to other and us. Did anyone review the plans?

Tick tock
Commentary by Terry Anker
The ticking of mechanical clocks can be heard in almost all of the communal rooms of our home. We wind them each week. We transport them to Arcadia, Ind., with utmost attention for their routine care and maintenance. And we use them for their intended purpose, to tell us the time, as some have been employed for many, many decades. The constant tick tock proves to be a familiar and soothing backdrop corresponding with the ordinary sounds of a living household. The fan cycling on the refrigerator, the whoosh of air through the ductwork and the leaves rustling outside the window in an overnight rain – all contribute to the symphony of an embracing chord that wraps us with a sense of domestic sanctuary. My father-in-law, a stalwart member of the Greatest Generation, elevated my interest in horology to a new level. First visiting the home of the successful businessman, father and World War II Army Air Corps bellygunner, I was struck by his own modest, if
well curated, collection of antique clocks. His attention was at once directed to the practical – taking a train each day to his office in downtown Chicago required constant reminder of routine schedule – but also in the mechanical complexity, even wonder, in their movements and elegance of design. His clocks are now our sons’; and, there is one in my office at work and my study at home. They each dutifully remind me with a gentle chime that time is passing and as each moment expires another follows – each tick is followed by a tock, then a tick again and so on. In it, there is a comforting continuity. Sometimes the chime can be a bit of a nudge to progress to the next duty. But always, its steady reminder reassures that simple upkeep preserves both beauty and practicality. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Q U O T E O F T HE W EEK Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real.
– Thomas Merton
This past week I was supposed to be enjoying fall break while my kids went back to school (I teach in a neighhumor boring district with a different schedule). I had it all scheduled: I’d work just a little, but mostly I’d be bingewatching “Breaking Bad” and prepping the yard for Halloween. Alas, my beautiful week full of fun and relaxation was not to be. Nevertheless, girl power saw me through. Sunday night had me pulling our Honda Accord into a hotel parking lot on the way home from the Colts-Patriots debacle to find a screw embedded in the driver side tire. I moped around on Monday hoping Doo would handle the flat. He did not. So on Tuesday after a quick YouTube video and a glimpse at the owner’s manual, I nearly sprained my wrist trying to get the lug nuts loosened. Eventually I managed to jack up the car and put on the spare. I was covered in grease and sweat, and had to spend another two hours at Discount Tire, but I did it. Girl power! The next morning I woke up to horrible sinus pressure coupled with the realization that I had unfortunately scheduled a dentist appointment for noon. Wednesday was a complete wash except to say that despite having my poor teeth drilled, I managed to carpool four kids to five activities, make dinner and set up a witch, a grim reaper and a zombie Maddie without offing anyone. Girl power! Thursday I felt even worse despite an Alka Seltzer Cold cocktail to wash down some Benadryl. After almost three hours of driving around the Southside to find flooring for our fecal-contaminated house (see previous column), I had to take our stupid dog to the stupid vet for a stupid vaccination. She’s an immature 70-pound Lab with anxiety issues who cannot tolerate small, enclosed spaces. Girl power not only gave me the patience to bring her home, but also to spend the evening battling extension cords and orange twinkle lights. The perfect fall break it was not, but thank you Jesus for girl power! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentincarmel. com.

president of operations, learned about the JAG program last year at Staffing World, the annual convention for the American Staffing Association. Bieker explained the program to Milliner and they decided to launch it at the company. Bieker saw a list of schools, and when they saw Decatur Central, it was a natural fit since it was Milliner’s alma mater. Milliner, 43, changed schools many times before coming to Decatur Central in the middle of his freshman year. “I was the first kid to actually graduate from high school, let alone go to college, in our family,” Milliner said. Milliner said he was encouraged by one teacher who told Bieker him he had the opportunity to go to college and make more of himself if he applied himself. Milliner said if the JAG program was around when he was in high school, he could have been a candidate for it. Seven staff members, five full-time members and two interns participated in 19 activities with JAG (70 staff hours) from December 2014 to June 2015.

Sister act: Zionsville sisters share love of theater in two shows By Heather Lusk • news@currentzionsville.com One is playing a sullen teen. The other will portray a bunny. Yet these girls are more alike than different. Sisters Claire and Cynthia Kauffperformances man have found themselves in paid productions for the first time in their relatively short acting careers. Claire, a third grader at Pleasant View Elementary, will perform in the Indiana Repertory Theater production of “Peter Rabbit and Me” this month. Cynthia, a freshman at Zionsville Community High School, is the understudy for the character Wednesday Addams at Beef & Boards’ production of “The Addams Family.” Both girls began acting at The Little Black Box in Lebanon and have performed in community and small theaters throughout the Indianapolis area. The girls are the oldest and youngest in their family of four children. Kim Kauffman, the girls’ mother, said Claire auditioned for her first role to follow in her big sister’s footsteps. But after performing in “Annie” this summer, Kauffman noticed there was more to it. “I realized, oh no, she has the bug,” she said. Cynthia auditioned for “The Addams Family” simply for the experience of being on that stage, never expecting to be cast. Since understudies only perform if the lead is ill, Kauffman approached Beef & Boards to ask if they would consider a single performance for family and friends. The idea was approved. So on Nov. 4, Cynthia, along with the regular cast, will hold a special performance for which tickets can only be reserved online. There will be no meal included, as is common with Beef & Boards dinner theater, but patrons may bring their own food and beverage. Ticket prices are reduced to $27 as a

Rosie, who has Cystic Fibrosis. Rosie, 15, received a lung transplant but is now receiving treatment for chronic rejection. Both girls met in the theater, so Cynthia would like to raise funds to send her friend to New York to see Broadway shows. Beef & Boards generally doesn’t employ understudies, but Cynthia has found the experience to be quite valuable. The seriousness of the atmosphere she finds different than the casual rehearsal schedule she has faced in prior productions. “It’s kind of hard to keep up with them,” she said. “They get the whole show done in two weeks. It’s a taste of what they do in the professional business.” The sisters have found it helpful to have someone in the family who understands their needs as performers. “It’s fun having somebody else who knows what I’m talking about,” said Cynthia, who utilized her sister’s help to practice lines, which have to be memorized precisely as the understudy. “Whenever I get in a show, she’ll make sure I’m practicing my lines. She’ll practice them with me,” Claire said. “If I have a dance, she’ll show me the things I’m doing wrong, and she’ll show me how to do it.” Claire insisted she helps her sister in other ways too, including her big sister’s wardrobe. “Sometimes you say ‘What should I wear?’ and I help you pick that out,” Claire said. Claire heard the Indiana Repertory Theater was holding open auditions and asked her mother if she could attend with her sister. Both girls auditioned and received callbacks, but by then, Cynthia had been offered the understudy role. Claire auditioned a second time and was cast as bird, girl and bunny in “Peter Rabbit and Me.” “Peter Rabbit and Me” is playing from Nov. 21 to Dec. 20. Tickets are available at IRTLive.com.

CHS actors share roles By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School theater teacher Jim Peterson didn’t have a hard time casting the lead actors in “The 39 Steps.” theater Everyone gets their shot. “We’re calling it a company approach. The idea is there are 19 actors playing 150 different characters,” Peterson said. “They say from the film there are 150 characters, but there are not 150 speaking parts. We have them play all the leads, but things like furniture, the dog, the sheep, and they play the car police chase them in. “The main character, Richard Hanna, has a hat and coat, and whoever is playing him has the hat and coat. He’s the one who gets accused of murder and has to clear his name. I hope the audience is going to follow it.” The performances for “The 39 Steps” will be at 7 p.m. on Nov. 12, 13 and 14 along with a 2 p.m. show on Nov. 14 at CHS Studio Theater. Peterson said the play is more madcap fun than the 1935 movie version directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Sophomore Eric Bembenek said he’ll play a character in one scene and then a different actor will play the same character.

PRESENTED BY
“It’s a fun show and has a lot of twists and turns,” Bembenek said. “It’s kind of confusing, but it adds to the humor to it.” Senior Michael Davis said his work with Comedy Sportz, an improv group, helps with this play. Davis plays Hanna and one of the Bembenek villains. “I’m used to it because I play unscripted roles with my improv group,” Davis said. “So I’m used to jumping around and switching characters.” Davis said he helps explain what will happen to Davis the audience before the play. Senior Kate Milazzo said it’s a different kind of theater than most are used to seeing. “We all get to play these fun, interesting characters,” Milazzo said.

DeVoe to release new album at Warehouse concerts By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
Jennie DeVoe at her concert at The Warehouse in May. DeVoe returns to The Warehouse Nov. 7. (File photo by Amy Pauszek)
Jennie DeVoe just recently put the finishing touch on her album, literally. The inspiration for the album title, “Picking music Flowers on the Moon,” comes from a line in one of her songs. “It’s an old-fashioned drawing,” DeVoe said. “I was a big fan of Maurice Sendak (illustrator known for children’s books). I drew a couple of moons, one for the cover and one for the back.” DeVoe will release her new album at two concerts Nov. 7 at The Warehouse, 254 1st Ave. S.W., Carmel. The shows will be at 7 and 9:30 p.m. “That’s (album release) a good reason for people to come because it’s something that hasn’t been available to people before,” said DeVoe, who lives on the north side of Indianapolis. This is singer-songwriter DeVoe’s 10th album. The album, under DeVoe’s own label, was recorded live in August at Aten Place in Boyne Falls, Mich. Aten Place is a big barn the owners converted into a concert hall. It was DeVoe’s second appearance at the barn. “It had some magic to it,” DeVoe said. “So it was just a matter of getting the right levels.” Because it was a live recording, DeVoe said the price of producing wasn’t as costly. “This CD sort of made itself,” she said. “This show had some magic to it. So it was just a matter of getting the right levels.
So there was no overhead except for me making the art.” The album includes some of DeVoe’s original songs and covers of other artists, such as a cover of Carole King’s “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” and an acoustic version of Sly and the Family Stone’s “Que Sera.” The inspiration for another cover came from listening to her father’s older records. “He listened to Billie Holiday and Louie Armstrong,” DeVoe said. “I remember listening to ‘I Put a Spell on You’ by Nina Simone. It’s a culmination of me hearing a version from everybody, from the Creedence Clearwater Revival version to Nina Simone. It was me on guitar and my bass player.” Prior to this release, DeVoe promoted her last album, Radiator, though a Kickstarter campaign. “We tripled our expectations, so that was a big sigh of relief,” DeVoe said. Now DeVoe is eager to return to The Warehouse. “We did enjoy our last show at The Warehouse in May, which sold out,” DeVoe said. “We could have sold out two shows. So it was the venue owner’s idea to have two shows back-to-back.” DeVoe said it will be completely different from her last Warehouse show. “I’m always doing something new so I’m not completely repeating myself. We’ll even throw in a couple new songs that we’ve never done before. It keeps us all on our toes,” DeVoe said. Tickets are $25 in advance and $30 at the door. For tickets, visit liveforthemusic.com

Park presents slavery program By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Conner Prairie Interactive History Park will provide its annual glimpse into what it would be like to be a education fugitive slave in Indiana in 1836. Performances of “Follow the North Star” are Nov. 4, 6, 7, 12-14 and 19-21 at Conner Prairie, 13400 Allisonville Rd., Fishers. The 105-minute program starts at 6:30 p.m. and groups of about 15 people will be staggered every 15 minutes after that, traveling through the grounds. “It’s pretty rare that you’ll find a museum program that lasts this long,” said Rosie Arnold, Conner Prairie education and programs manager. “This one has its staying power because it creates such a strong impact on people, and it remains relevant today.” The program is an underground railroad simulation. “We use our historic grounds to recreate the experience of the underground railroad in Indiana in 1836,” Arnold said. “The guests are playing the role of the fugitive slave. The storyline is you have been brought to Indiana illegally because Indiana was technically a free state. Throughout the course of the

program, you are able to escape and begin your journey north trying to seek freedom.” Arnold said all the characters are based on research on people they know existed. “It gives you a variety of different attitudes and perspectives on people’s feelings about slavery in that time period,” Arnold said. With the guests playing the role of the fugitive slave, Arnold said it is an intense program, so it is not recommended for children under the age of 12. “But it can be a very powerful and worthwhile experience,” Arnold said. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. The cost is $20 for nonmembers and $17 for members.

Polenta: Taking dinner to the next level Commentary by Ceci Martinez Take a bland and boring polenta dish to the highest level! This simple but incredibly delicious recipe, “Tomato, Olives and Capers Sauce over Polenta” is colorful, inexpensive and best of all is a 1, 2, 3 meal, perfect for the fall/winter season. Note: Wine suggestion: Vintjs Petite Sirah or Chariot Gypsy, from Trader Joe’s; both great red wines from California go beautifully with this recipe. The tomato sauce and polenta can be prepared up to three days in advance. Cover and refrigerate separately. Reheat at serving. TOMATO, OLIVES AND CAPERS SAUCE OVER POLENTA Serves: 4 Ingredients: 3 cups milk, 1/2 cup light cream or half-and-half, 1 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, 1 cup polenta, 1/2 cup freshly grated Swiss Gruyere cheese, 2 large onion, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into thin halfrounds, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 1 28-ounce can whole peeled tomatoes in juice, 1/3 cup pitted Kalamata olives, 1 tablespoon capers, 2 cloves garlic, chopped, 2 fresh or dried bay leaves, 1 teaspoon dried oregano Directions: In a large saucepan, bring milk, cream, 1 teaspoon of salt and nutmeg to a
boil over medium heat. (Watch carefully, milk will boil over quickly.) Add polenta in a steady stream and stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, cook until mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the cheese, and mix all well. The polenta should be creamy. To prepare sauce, in a large skillet combine onions, 2 tablespoon olive oil and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook until caramelized. Add tomatoes and their juices - break tomatoes into small pieces, olives, capers, garlic, bay leaves and oregano and cook, covered over low heat until sauce starts to thicken, about 5 to 8 minutes. Serve polenta right away, topped with sauce all over. Ceci Martinez is a Zionsville resident who was born in New York and raised in Peru. For more of Ceci’s recipes, visitcurrentzionsville.com.

Cold weather food survey By Joe Drozda and Bob Bley
Written & Created by Roger Bean Musical and Vocal Arrangements by Roger Bean, Michael Borth and Jon Newton
Featuring the hits... Be prepared to serve everyone two servings of this turkey chili. (Submitted photo)
To Prepare: Brown the turkey in a large pot, drain it if you must, and then add everything else. Bring the mixture to a low boil and then reduce the heat to allow the chili to simmer for one hour. Stir the mixture occasionally. Serve with oyster crackers or French bread. If you have children at your party, you can float some hot dogs in this chili for 15 minutes and serve them on buns for the kids. WARNING! Unless you tailgate with wimps, you’ll need to have enough chili to serve everyone at least two bowls of this cold weather favorite! The whole tomatoes become very hot and sooth one’s pipes in the sore throat cold weather post-game tailgate party. Joe Drozda is the author of “The Tailgater’s Handbook” and is considered as the “Father of American Tailgating.” His website is tailgatershandbook.com. He is a resident of Hamilton County.

Football season, in our part of the nation, begins around Labor Day and ends usually after Thanksgiving. Early in the season tailgate temperatures are in the high 80s, with a hot sun that burns us. This is when we need shelter from the sun, we hope for a breeze and we use sunscreen to protect our skin. This is the time of the year we serve cold foods and cold beverages. In a short three months things change a lot. Usually by late season we are expecting cold weather. This is when we eat hot foods and drink hot beverages. This is when we try to find a way to sit in the sun and get a shelter erected so we can be out of the snow, freezing rain and dreaded wind that blows a chill almost right through our bones. We annually survey tailgate lots for menu items and preferences. Here are the 2014 top choices for cold weather main course foods. • Chili is first with 45 percent • Sausage 18 percent • Chicken 10 percent • Non-chili soups 6 percent Cold Weather Turkey Chili Made with ground turkey, this chili avoids a little of the fat of ground beef without losing any of the flavor we require for pre-game and post-game meals. Ingredients: • 2 lbs. ground turkey • 3 pkgs. McCormick’s Chili Mix (or your favorite) • 3 28oz. cans whole peeled tomatoes (un-drained) • 4 15oz. cans dark red kidney beans (un-drained)

This time of year many homeowners are looking into new flooring before the holidays. Hardwood floors are INdoor living a classic, beautiful choice that will last for years to come. If you’re considering adding hardwood floors, however, you will need to decide whether to install solid or engineered hardwoods. Both are 100 percent wood and a valuable investment in your home, but there are some very important distinctions. Solid hardwood floors are created from one solid piece of wood. The thickness can vary, but generally between 3/4 inch and 7/16 inch engineered wood, on the other hand, is constructed from multiple layers of wood with a solid wood top layer. Below the top layer is a core of fiberboard layers followed by a hardwood backing. This unique construction keeps engineered hardwoods safer from buckling and warping. Because of this they work well in any floor in your home, including basements. Because they are more stable you can get wider and longer planks. Solid hardwoods, on the other hand, are sensitive to high humidity and con-
tract with the change in moisture. Because of this, they are only recommended for first floors or above. Most assume that solid hardwoods are more expensive, but that’s not always the case. Considerations such as installation method, condition of the subfloor and labor costs can greatly affect the final cost. Engineered hardwoods tend to be more DIY-friendly and may save you money on installation. They can be installed as a “floating” floor in which the boards hook into one another and “float” above the subfloor. Hardwoods, on the other hand, should always be installed by a professional and are glued, nailed or stapled to a wooden subfloor. Both hardwoods and engineered hardwoods come in a wide variety of lengths and widths for any room.

HAPPY HOMES MAKE HAPPY LIVES. There are no trophies for being “average,” according to Randy Sorrell. (Submitted photo)
Why average stinks Commentary by Randy Sorrell It’s a constant battle for those of us forwarding the definition of luxury outdoor living spaces. How do we outdoor living fight mediocrity? How do we behave differently so that your backyard living space is not a “knock off” of the rest of the neighborhood? How do we NOT be average (without busting the budget), because there are no trophies for average? Here are four proven strategies to escape the vanilla of average: 1. Hire a proven designer or landscape architect with a styled history of success, and a few failures mixed in for gumption. And then follow their lead. Challenge them when your gut tells you to. 2. Don’t be afraid. Be bold and benign at the same time. You will likely understand that when the time is appropriate. 3. Personality … yours, must show itself in the deck/patio/landscape/grill station/ lanais, etc. … that finally gets installed. After all, it’s your space and you are
writing the check. 4. Anticipate. The most compelling of the lessons is to anticipate how you hope to use the space. What moments to do hope to create? And it’s more than “I need a four-top table and an umbrella for shade.” It sounds more like “I see myself and my significant other relaxing most evenings with a book and a glass of wine. Ideally we could accommodate a few friends/neighbors/kids for cookouts. And I want it to feel very urban.” Frankly, it’s pretty simple for us to build a space that looks like page 14 of your favorite supplier catalog. And it will look incredible. Just like the hundreds of others that look like page 14 in the city. Or whatever page, of whatever catalog… But we can do better. We must.

The ‘Pope’s Revenge’ a Christian symbol Commentary by Don Knebel
Teacher of the Month!
CONGRATS!

The winning students will get to have a lunchtime party and the teachers will receive gift certificates to Market District. The next deadline to submit an essay is Nov. 15. To submit your 100-word essay about your favorite teacher, email it to Teacher@youarecurrent.com.
During the Cold War, the East German government erected a 1207-foot-tall broadcast tower in East Berlin, intended travel to celebrate the superiority of the Communist system. The plan backfired, constantly reminding East Berliners of what they were missing. Today, the tower is a symbol of a united Berlin. The tower, called Fernsehturm in German, was designed a few years after the Soviet Union had beaten the United States into space with a spherically-shaped satellite named “Sputnik.” To trumpet that achievement, the concrete base of the tower was designed to suggest a rocket, with a sphere representing Sputnik near the apex. The massive sphere, with seven floors inside, was covered with 140 stainless steel panels, designed to gleam in the sunlight. Even before the tower was completed in 1969, residents of Berlin noticed something the East German architects had never anticipated. Sunlight reflecting from the panels of the sphere created a nearly perfect Greek cross, visible throughout the divided city. West Berliners quickly dubbed this Christian symbol in a Communist country the “Pope’s Revenge,”

divine retaliation for the government’s removal of crosses from East Berlin’s churches. An embarrassed government reportedly tried painting the tiles to eliminate the cross, without success. When President Ronald Reagan spoke before Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate on June 12, 1987, demanding that Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbechev “tear down this wall,” he spoke of the efforts to eliminate the unintended cross: “There in Berlin, like the city itself, symbols of love, symbols of worship, cannot be suppressed.” Twenty-nine months later, the Berlin Wall came down and Berlin was united. Today, Berlin’s tower attracts more than a million visitors a year, many eating in its revolving restaurant 680 feet above the street. On sunny days, Berlin guides point to the gleaming tower and its cross, proudly noting that other crosses have returned to their churches.
