The old Chaos building on Main Street is still on the market.City officials are saying a proposed sale of the building has

fallen through, at least for now. It is unclear at this time what has halted the deal.

The Carmel Redevelopment Commission in April approved to sell the Arts & Design Center building to an individual for $300,000, pending the completion of all necessary legal docu-mentation. But Commissioner Jeff Worrell said he believed the deal had fallen through and the offer had been withdrawn.

Mayor Jim Brainard confirmed the deal has not been complet-ed but said he did not know whether the deal has permanently fallen through. He said there were discussions of putting a restau-rant in the building.

At the April meeting, CRC Director Les Olds said the commis-sion had received a number of inquiries on the building during the past 18 months, but most potential investors underestimated the price of the building and the costs of renovating it.

“After they reviewed the building and the amount of work that it would take to rehab it, just about everyone backed away,” Olds said at the meeting. “The commission has debt on the building and our position was that we would not sell it unless we could recover a majority of the money we have paid for the project. At the same time, we wanted someone who would buy the building and do something that would meet the criteria the commission has for the arts district area, either totally remodeling the build-

ing, maintaining its historic character on the outside or tearing down the building and building a two-story structure minimum, as required by the overlay zone for Old Town.”

The most recent offer, he said, was to purchase the building as is, with no requirements or expectations from the CRC to assist in repairing or renovating it. Olds added the potential buyer is a Main Street resident who would have a vested interest in the dis-trict and that the proposed purchase and subsequent renovation would “be a good thing to happen for Main Street.”

A request for comment from Olds on the status of the deal has not been answered.

Brainard: no plans for watering Ban in car-Mel – In a press release last week, Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said he wanted to reassure residents that, de-spite dry weather, there is no water shortage or watering ban in the city of Carmel. Carmel’s water comes from an underground aquifer with a substantial supply, the may-or said. “Carmel Utilities continuously monitors its ground water supply, its water treatment facilities and water dis-tribution systems,” reads the release. “It will continue to evaluate the supply along with the drought conditions to determine if any additional action is required, but at this time, the water supply is adequate for the situation.”

arMed roBBery in carMel – At approximately 10 p.m. last Tuesday, the Carmel Police Department re-sponded to a robbery in the area of 10801 N. Michigan Rd. Two victims reported that a brown Chevrolet Impala, with light window tint, pulled up beside them and two black males got out and approached them. The two suspects had guns and demanded money. The suspects took a wallet and purse and left the area in the brown Impala. No one was injured during the incident. If you have any information about this incident please call the Carmel Police Department at 571-2511 or Crime Stoppers at 262-TIPS.

karen witt kelsey to lead feinstein initiatiVe – The Michael Feinstein Great American Songbook Initiative an-nounced Friday that Karen Witt Kelsey will serve as its permanent executive director. She has served the orga-nization as interim director for the past three months. Jeffrey C. McDermott, chairman of the Initiative’s board of directors, said: “Karen possesses extraordinary lead-ership ability, business acumen, creativity, passion and communication skills necessary to help take the Initia-tive to even greater levels of success. Karen had been serving as our interim director for the past several months. During that short period of time, she completely immersed herself in the position, gaining an understanding of our mission and programs, identifying the issues and challenges we face, and focusing on the many opportunities that are available to us."

COMMUNITY Non-profiits

Chaucie’s Place announced recently the new composition of its executive commit-tee, adding three new members, including a new president and vice president.

Chaucie’s Place is a non-profit organiza-tion formed in 2001 to serve the needs of children and families affected by abuse or neglect in Hamilton County.

“We had a number of founding members roll of f the board due to term limits,” said Toby Stark, Chaucie’s Place executive direc-tor. “And our executive committee now if four strong members who are committed to Chaucie’s Place.”

The new Chaucie’s Place executive committee consists of: Jon Kizer, president, Sean Devenney, vice president, Jeremy Cox, treasurer, and Ralph Hicks, secretary, who will serve his second year on the committee.

The executive committee changeover comes as Chaucie’s Place is “strengthening its commit-ment to prevention,” according to Stark.

“What we’re focusing on now is primary pre-vention, which is where one tries to intervene before something has happened to someone,” said Hicks, “whether it be abuse or neglect. And not just in the high-risk populations, but the general population.”

“We have so many exciting things happening right now,” said Kizer. “Programmatically, our body safety program continues to reach over 9,000 students each year. We continue working to reach children and adults. The kids part has always been there – we’re in every school in the county. But we’re also working on educating adults through the Stewards of Children Program.”

That program, introduced in October of 2010, has already trained more than 600 people, accord-ing to Stark. Chaucie’s Place is looking to increase “corporate saturation” and awareness with the pro-gram as well, according to Devenney, who’s own firm went through the training recently.

This fall, Chaucie’s Place will roll out a new, previously unannounced program called Life-lines, a national, evidence-based suicide preven-

tion program aimed at students in 8th through 10th grades.

“This program is important because it works with not only a child’s mental health, but also their friends,” said Stark. “Because when you have a teen in angst, they won’t go to an adult, they go to their peer group.”

The board said it sees expanding its programs as a natural evolution of the Chaucie’s Place mission.

“When you consider Chaucie’s history going back 10-11 years now, the commu-nity formed us, which is fairly unusual,”

said Cox. “This physical building is here because of the community. I think that just speaks to how well this community has continued to support Chaucie’s Place.”

“There are a lot of exciting new things going on at Chaucie’s Place,” added Stark, “but the heart and the soul of the place has not changed, nor will it ever change.”

DC Designers Tux Shop announced last week it will open a new “tuxedo haberdashery” store late this summer at Cool Creek Village on 146th St. in Carmel.

The men’s formal wear store, which has loca-tions in Castleton and Carmel, at 622 Station Dr., has been serving the Indianapolis area since 1977.

Owner Pete Corbett said the business will close its Merchant Plaza location as part of the move, though the Castleton

store will remain open.“The 146th Street/Cool Creek area is a more

conveniently central location for our client base, which includes Carmel, Westfield, Fishers, No-blesville and Zionsville,” he said. “We’re excited about the vibrancy of this great shopping area, and look forward to becoming part of it.” The new location, Corbett said, will have special focus on the experience for the shopper.

“Our newest location will be decorated to cre-ate the ambience of an elegant men’s haberdash-ery, where our clients will receive personal atten-tion down to the last detail of their gentlemen’s formal wear needs,” said owner Pete Corbett.

The shop is family owned and operated – Corbett runs the business with help from sons Don and Bill, daughter Kim and a number of grandchildren. Corbett said he’s seen genera-

tions of customers come to the shop as well.“We are unique in that many of the young

men we helped with prom tuxes in the 80s returned to us for their weddings, and are now bringing their sons to us for their prom tuxes,” he said. “It’s a lot of fun to see the generations!”

The new DC Designers Tux Shop will be located directly in front of LA Fitness in Cool Creek Village. The shop’s opening is scheduled for the beginning of August.

For more information, contact DC Designers Tux Shop at 317-844-4070 or dctux.com.

DC Tux to close at Merchant Square, move to 146th St.

commentary by Jeff worrell

The lure of fresh fruits and vegetables is one major reason the Carmel Farmer’s Market has blossomed over the years. So, it should be no surprise that a group of Carmel citizens is car-rying the farmer’s market concept one step further. September 15th of this year will mark the beginning of the Carmel Clay School Com-munity Garden. Now, don’t let the name scare you and jump to the assumption this is just for school kids. The School Corporation is provid-ing the land, but the garden is truly a commu-nity project designed for everyone.

Located behind the soon to be razed Coop building on the grounds of Clay Middle School, 63 plots of land will be available to any Carmel resident willing to let Mother Nature be the boss. You or you and your best friend or your bridge club or your son’s Boy Scout Troop or your church choir could all fill out an applica-tion and take over a piece of rich, black Carmel soil. Should more applications be submitted than plots of land, a lottery will determine who will garden and who will watch the gardeners.

A community garden offers an opportunity for people with common interests to come to-

gether and create. They will together, navigate the challenges of weather, nature and time. As a community, they will decide how the person who wants to grow a mighty oak tree does not infringe on the precious sun rights of the person one plot over who is trying to grow arugula. As a community they will organize, plan and dream about what can be.

But someone has to dream about what can be today. The CCS Community Garden Dreamers are MaryEllen St.Angelo, Marcia Roberts, BJ Massa, Chris Cruzan, Sandie McLaren, Margot Gibson and Linda Hynes. Randy Sorrell of Surroundings by Natureworks donated a plan which includes phase 2 of the dream; a com-munity gathering space perfect for ceremonies, picnics and concerts.

A website explaining all of the details and how to apply can be found at www.ccsgreen-team.org. The dream will soon be sprouting in our very own community backyard.

COMMUNITY Cover story

By Jordan Fischer • [email protected]

Five chords on a mandolin are about the ex-tent of Alan Johnson’s instrumental talent.

And, he says, “Even those I don’t play very well.”

In front of a sound board, though, Johnson’s talent is apparent. The Carmel resident and operator of Static Shack Studios has made a 25-year career of recording, mixing and producing music, with collaborators ranging from former Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers to John Fogerty, of Creedence Clearwater Revival fame. And, since 1990, Johnson has produced or recorded every jingle and musical number, and many of the skits, for the internationally broad-casted Bob & Tom Radio Show.

Johnson sat down with the Current in Car-mel to talk about his time in the music industry and how he built his business from the ground up.The building your studio sits in now was formerly the home of the now-defunct TRC Studios; ap-

propriate enough since you got your start in the industry as an intern for TRC. Take us through that trip from intern to running the show.

Johnson: “When I went to school there was no such thing as an audio recording ma-jor. At the time, there were three schools in the whole country that had audio production programs. I went to Ball State and took class-es at Full Sail in the summer, but then I got offered an internship. So I left and moved to Indianapolis and lived with my girlfriend and her mom to take the gig with TRC Studios.

“You just start working. You take sessions that nobody else wants to do. You get some clients and hopefully it becomes a career. In the 80s, it was jingles. It was jingles during the day and bands at night.”

Jingles aren’t what they were, but you still do some for Bob & Tom and other projects. How do you look at them versus, say, having a session with a band in the studio?

Johnson: “It’s just different. When you’re young, the jingle thing – while it could be a pain in the butt – was incredible training. Indianapolis had a very healthy jingle scene at that time … one of the healthiest in the country. Musicians would run from one stu-dio to another. You’d have a percussion sec-tion at 9 a.m. and horns at 10:30 a.m., and you’d have to do it with three guys in suits staring over your shoulder the whole time.”

You’ve worked with some pretty recognizable names – not the least of them being John Fogerty. That had to be an experience.

Johnson: “It was a blast. To be able to hang with one of the founding members of the rock ‘n roll hall of fame was astounding.”

And then there’s Bob & Tom, who you’ve been collaborating with for more than two decades.

Johnson: “It’s the best, because they want perfection. For me, that’s the No. 1 thing I want: somebody with an opinion. It’s always fun and loose and the team is great. They’re a blast to work with.”

What are they like “behind the scenes,” so to speak?

Johnson: “They’ve got two different styles of working. They go to great lengths to hide what they’re doing from each other, because they want that initial laugh to be on the air.”

After 25 years in the business, what lessons have you gleaned?

Johnson: “It’s really about getting people what they want. People come in, and they pay me and they want my opinion, but I typically ask more questions than I do give answers.

“You know how it is with any artistic endeavor. One day you think you’ve got it down, and they next you’re convinced you know nothing. You just put in your 10,000 hours and hopefully one day you figure out what you’re doing. Hopefully one day I will.”

VIEWS Opinion

editor,In your Kelly-Greenberg editorial of July

10, you referred to President Obama as “the worst president in the nation’s history.” I have not been an avid Obama supporter since he ran for President. However, I haven’t been a really zealous supporter of any presidential candidate, since the days of Ross Perot. But, I am an avid supporter of avoiding editorial hyperbole in politics and history. As editors and citizens, you may consider Mr. Obama the worst president in history, but that does not make it so. At least, not to date, in the minds of many presidential historians. A 2010 Siena poll of 238 Presidential schol-ars ranked Obama 15th out of 43 presidents!

Ever since the dawn of the American presi-dency, newspaper editors have been vicious towards opposing Party presidents. Thus, in 1796, the Philadelphia Aurora editor, Ben-jamin Franklin Bache, wrote of President George Washington: “If ever a nation was debauched by a man, the American nation has been debauched by Washington. If ever a nation was deceived by a man, the American nation has been deceived by Washington.” To get some “fair and balanced” ideas of how former presidents have been perceived in their own time, I recommend to your read-ers, and to you, books such as William A. Degregorio’s “The Complete Book of U.S. Presidents.” Pay particular attention to the sections where each president is criticized or praised by contemporaries at the end of each chapter. Perhaps, someday, your own comment of July 10 may be in the “Obama Criticized” section. Most Americans know so little of how each president was hated and ridiculed by opponents. Most only know American mythology, not American history.

A couple weeks ago in our booth at CarmelF-est, we offered those who stopped to visit the chance to tell us more about them. Specifically, we asked anyone who showed an interest to fill out a card and provide details. The aim was to see which fascinating personal tales we could bring, eventually, to the fore on the cover of our newspaper. The response was great, and we now have a bevy of ideas from which to choose. We’ve decided to do more of the same with our great community. If you have, or know of some-one who has, a neat or inspiring (or otherwise interesting) story to tell your fellow readers, you – or he or she – may submit a synopsis to us through [email protected]. Not every submission will end up on our cover, but every submission will get full and due consideration.

bicycle in Westfield recently, when he was struck from behind by a truck traveling at approxi-mately 45 mph. The lad miraculously suffered only scrapes and bruises, and his backpack’s contents (laptop, Kindle and other possessions) were a total loss. That’s sad, but what really irks us is the driver of the truck just kept going. Will the authorities find the driver? We’re doubtful. Should the driver come forward and explain? Absolutely. Will it happen? Nope, and that’s a shame. From what we understand, the kid was well within his road rights as a bicyclist. We believe some of the driving public needs to be better informed on the rights of bicyclists, and a good place to start is www.bicycleindiana.org.

commentary by terry anker

Election years tend to make water-cooler talk more interesting. We become experts on national finance, welfare and program, and then fight to the death armed only with the info we garnered from the news during the morning drive. It is good that folks take a position. It is even better when we become knowledgeable and then take a position. Understanding and even empathizing with both sides of an issue makes our conversa-tions more informed and less belligerent.

But when government is taking away something to which we believe ourselves to be entitled, can we ever really understand the other point of view? Some, when asked to pay more taxes to support another government program, remunerate without protest. Some, when asked to surrender, adjust or do without government benefit, seek alternate solutions sans a picket line. But most fail to notice un-less they are directly affected. Few resist taxes that are not taxed; and few fight to preserve benefits that are not benefited.

Aren’t we sad when a member of anyone’s family dies but saddest when it is a member of our own? Long ago, famed English moral phi-losopher Adam Smith pointed to the evident, if unpleasant, truth that we care more about smashing our own fingers than the deaths of a million in a far away and unrelated place. So it seems that the political trick of taxation is to only tax those who don’t vote for you or understand the increase. No one likes taxes. So, let’s call them something else or apply them to “those” people not “our” own supporters. And, if government cuts must occur, the politicos know that programs must be changed only quietly or, better yet, deferred to future election cycles. How can we hope to understand, know-ing that we are being manipulated? Benevolent or not, can this be right?

editor,Please do not include this Carmel resident

as one you “suspect” shares your disappoint-ment with the recent Supreme Court decision to uphold President Obama’s Affordable Care Act. Your recent “From the Backshop” was so inflammatory that it forced me to write when normally I just shake my head at the Current’s lack of political balance. While you say you have “sour feelings” that the Act was upheld, I am ecstatic that (to name just a few):

• Millions of children with pre-existing health conditions will no longer be denied health care coverage.

• Those with chronic illnesses will no longer have their insurance canceled after they reach their lifetime cap.

• Critical preventive health care services, such as wellness check ups and mammo-grams, are now covered with no co-pay or deductible.

• Insurance companies, with CEOs paid in the millions, will have to justify rate hikes and must spend 80 percent of customers’ premiums on care.

And while the Republicans in Congress wage on about repealing Obamacare, ask any of them to give up their health coverage that’s paid for by the American taxpayers. I’m sure the silence would be deafening.

glenda shaw, 46033

editor,The closing sentence from your July 10

editorial titled “Obama lacks grip on econom-ics” states that President Obama is the worst president in the nation’s history, yet you fail to convincingly state the criteria used to render that judgment. You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but serious opinion pieces should present clear reasons for stated conclusions and refrain from unsubstantiated spiteful remarks.

rich cohen, 46032

editor,You are incorrect sir, when you label President

Obama as the worst president in history. That sir, would be George W. Bush. The president who sent our young men into an unnecessary war, that maimed and killed thousands. Of course, in the eyes of conservatives, this was justified, in order to obtain the oil the U.S. wanted, and to revenge the plot against George H.W. Bush. Do you have a belief system so weak, that it al-lows the sins of the past president to dissipate, in order to follow a conservative ideology that no longer functions in society?

editor,After walking in the Carmelfest parade the

last 5 years, this was my first year to actually sit back and watch if from the sidelines. I was disappointed at how generic it has become with the same old entries as the year before.

I wanted to bring up how some things in the parade just didn’t make sense, in regards to the holiday. I can see having marching bands, Girl/Boy/Cub Scouts, TV personalities, fire trucks, the Shriners, etc. But, the Mellow Mushroom, if that’s what that big yellow thing was walking around? Three entries for St.Vincent Hospital? And, the one big one I can’t figure out...the Na-tional Guard band and war vets at the very end of the parade? Placed after the Tae Kwon Do group? I would think they would get a premium spot in the lineup. I believe they actually deserve a place near the front. Except for several color guards, flags were lacking throughout.

Is our parade not a fan of floats? Salsbury had an actual float, but it was just flowers, pink mostly. Any floats/vehicles with patriotic themes? Very few that I saw, which is too bad. Seems the creativity part of being in a parade amounts to some garland and shoe polish on windshields and who can pass out the weird-est stuff along the parade route (yardsticks, plastic bags, band aids, measuring spoons). No re-enactors like patriots, Thomas Jefferson, or

John Adams? They were only the founders of our country. Kudos to them? Not so much any-more, I guess. The Scottish pipers were the most closely related to Independence Day since they did help the colonies

Has Carmel ever had contests for floats/en-tries judged on certain themes? Prizes wouldn’t need to be given, just bragging rights until the next year would be enough. Well, maybe their picture in the Current in Carmel paper :) Nothing wrong with a little incentive to think outside the box.

I feel that the parade has lost its spark, no pun intended. It needs to be refreshed and updated; more patriotic, less fluff. I get the “pa-triotism” of this holiday. It’s not just a day off to enjoy barbeques and watch fireworks, it’s a day to remember WHY we are able to enjoy these small luxuries, “...for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.”

So, that’s my view of this year’s parade. It could be so much more, if it just had a little more heart and soul in it. I’m hoping it finds it next year. If not, then my first year may have been my last. I’m going to turn back to watch-ing The Patriot now, great movie!

Thanks for listening...and Happy Indepen-dence Day!

It used to be that when people asked you about your dog or cat, you’d say something like, “Old Sparky, he’s crazier than ever.” But “crazy” was a term of endearment, intended to highlight the mischievous behavior of your companion. No longer can we make light of this. Dogs and cats are getting more neurotic.

Two of my favorite “New Yorker” cartoon-ists, Charles Barsotti and the late Leo Cullum, have long documented the anguish of our pet population, and I owe them a big thanks for their observations on which this report is based. “I do what they say, I eat what they give me, they must be a cult,” says one dog to another in a Cullum cartoon. Yes, dogs that once dutifully followed their masters no longer trust humans.

And so, more people are dragging their pets to the shrink. Dogs who are not allowed on the sofa at home now find themselves invited on the couch. Economic issues seem to be a source of much of their anxiety, and many must seek employment outside the home. While some dogs are doing OK, working dogs – like sheep dogs – are having trouble finding a job.

Anecdotal evidence suggests a rise in passive-aggressive behavior. Dogs don’t care if the package says “Premium” or “Gourmet;” it’s dog food, and they won’t eat it. One dog was

reported saying to his master, “Get your own damn slippers.”

In therapy, dogs are admitting that their pee-ing on the carpet is not really an “accident” at all. And when the deed occurs, dogs are tired of having their noses rubbed in it.

There is also increased animosity between felines and canines, which has always been prevalent but is worse in the current human-eat-human world dogs must live in. Dogs don’t just want to dominate; they want cats to fail. They wonder why there are so few “No Cats Allowed” signs.

Even with all this evidence, I do caution you not to overreact. One woman in Muncie thought her dog looked depressed, sad and downtrodden. She took him to a pet psychologist, paid $150 and received a very insightful diagnosis: “It’s a basset hound, lady.”

Of course, our pets think we are the nutty ones. As one canine comments in my favorite Barsotti cartoon, “Yes, humans are crazy, but they can open the fridge.”

More dogs face human problems

I’ve had it! And I’m going to throw some people under the bus here, not only because it’s a transportation reference but because I would literally love to do so. Women should not be allowed on the roads until they pass an aggres-sive driving course complete with an inclement weather portion, a roundabout challenge and a written exam on basic common sense.

I realize I am a female driver, but I know how to navigate traffic, on-ramps, construction zones and icy conditions. I also pay attention while I’m driving. I do not apply eyeliner at red lights, I don’t text while my car is in drive and I actu-ally use my rear and sides mirrors to monitor ve-hicles around me. I don’t expect people to break the speed limit, but I do expect them to get out of the fast lane (that’s the left lane, ladies) if they are going slower than me. That’s not just com-mon courtesy; it’s the rule of the road.

This past week, driving around town had me cursing on a daily basis. Maybe it’s because school is out and more moms are driving, but every single person I yelled or honked at was a middle-aged woman. I saw a gal jump a lane of traffic and cut off four cars to get a ahead of me in a carpool line; I witnessed a woman stopped dead in a roundabout, unsure as to who had

the right of way; and I almost rear-ended two separate lady drivers who had practically parked at yield signs. (FYI: Yield means only stop if you can’t continue as opposed to the red octagonal STOP sign which actually does mean stop.) And don’t get me started on parking. Jesus, if you can’t get in the spot in two moves, then leave.

I hate to admit this, but men really are better drivers. Maybe it’s because they can’t multi-task very well and therefore can only focus on the road, or maybe it’s that they have a one-track mind that won’t let them change it after they’ve made a decision (like a woman I saw in a busy intersection who thought she wanted to turn left but realized she needed to go straight, so just blocked all traffic until she could get over), but whatever the reason, guys seem to drive the right way.

So ladies, please step up your game. Watch NASCAR, take lessons from your husband or just put down the latte. And if you spot me in a dented white mini-van, get out of my way. Peace out.

Focus on the road, nothing else

The positive test was reported on July 7. The Marion County Health Department confirmed earlier this month that mosquitoes carrying the West Nile virus were found in Warren and Perry townships.

commentary by Jessica swenberg

As kids gear up for fall sports, it’s important to know facts about concussions. While sports-related concus-sions can’t be prevented, awareness goes a long way in avoiding serious brain injury. Consider these myths:

A concussion is only diagnosed if the per-son loses consciousness or “blacks out.” Most concussions do not result in loss of consciousness. Concussions are diagnosed based on several symp-toms including headache, dizziness, confusion, irritability and change in personality or mood. Generally, the child will experience these signs im-mediately or within a few hours of the injury.

Myth: Children recover quickly from con-cussions. Children usually take longer to heal from concussions than adults, and the younger the child is, the longer the recovery. It may take a 10-year-old up to four weeks to recover, while a concussion in a high school freshman may resolve itself in 10 to 14 days.

If your child suffers a head injury, seek medical care immediately. If a concussion is diagnosed, your doctor will likely recommend physical and cogni-

tive rest. This means suspending sports and physical activity until the symptoms disappear. Schoolwork may be restricted to allow the brain time to heal. Children with concussions also should refrain from all activities that stimulate the brain – watching TV, using the computer and even texting.

Children are fully recovered from a concussion when they experience no symptoms at rest and ex-ertion, and they are back to their cognitive baseline. Computerized cognitive tests administered by phy-sicians trained in concussion management can help determine when cognition is back to baseline. Chil-dren ages 10 and older involved in a contact sport should get a baseline cognitive test every two years.

The good news is that children do fully recover from concussions. Following your doctor’s recom-mendations regarding rest and a gradual return to physical activity is the best approach.

By christian sorrell • [email protected]

During the next two months, what is now little more than an empty concrete floor sur-rounded by unfinished walls will become one of the first microbreweries of its kind in Indiana. Craft beers and the microbreweries that produce them have grown in popularity in the past sev-eral years, but much of Indiana seems to have lagged behind the movement, having very few microbreweries compared to other states.

Union Brewing Company’s head brewer Cameron Fila is looking to take a special ap-proach to brewing and serving craft beer when the brewery opens in Elliot's Mohawk Place in Carmel this September.

“All of our beer is cask-conditioned and will be hand-pulled. We brew two-barrel batches at a time. This system guarantees that the beer is always fresh and always at its peak,” said Fila. “To our knowledge, we are the only brewery in Indiana that will

be serving our beer cask-conditioned.”These aspects are a point of pride for Fila,

because they focus on quality and tradition over quantity and efficiency.

Union Brewing Company will feature more than just the beer they produce in-house. Fila and his partners are planning to feature a num-ber of guest taps from regional microbreweries and independent brewers.

“The guest tap will serve as a chance for us to feature many of our Midwestern favorites as well as the beers that we enjoy most,” said Fila.

The brewery is also planning to feature a selective dining menu provided by the nearby SoHo Café & Gallery.

“SoHo Café does terrific food, and we do terrific beer,” said Fila. “Rather than doing ter-rific beer and mediocre food, why not create a partnership that will help us both?”

It is this sense of partnership and commu-nity that seems to form much of the core of what Fila and his partners are hoping to create. With at least one other microbrewery planning to open in the area soon, most people would be mindful of the increase in competition, but Fila sees it differently.

“The beer world is a community. What’s good for us is good for them and vice versa,” said Fila. “There is plenty of room for us both to create great beer.”

Union Brewing Co. is lo-cated at 622 S. Rangeline Rd. in Carmel and is currently planning to open in mid-to-late September. For more information, find the brewery on Facebook at facebook.com/UBCUnionBrewingCo or on-line at unionbrewingco.com.

NIGHT & DAY Et cetera

By christian sorrell • [email protected]

Since his original television series “Sports Night,” Aaron Sorkin has become known as one of television and film’s most intelligent writers. Sorkin’s last foray into television writing was for the critically acclaimed politician drama, “The West Wing.” Needless to say, I was excited to see Sorkin make his way back to television. With “The Newsroom,” he is back in a very big way.

“The Newsroom” follows news anchor Will McAvoy, who, through playing it safe, has come to find some of the largest ratings on television with his cable show, “News Night.” After a con-troversial outburst during a debate on a college campus and staff change-ups within the network, he is forced to decide if he wants to continue his harmless but successful career or attempt to take up the once great mantle of true journalism. It is an extremely high concept and one that is quite risky, especially considering that the show takes place in 2010 and many of the show’s pivotal moments focus on past real-world events such as the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

While it may be creating an unrealistically

intelligent landscape enhanced by the 20/20 vision of real life hindsight, it is a landscape that I wanted to live in for as long as I could. The show’s cast of characters, from the primary char-

acters Will McAvoy and his executive producer Mackenzie MacHale, to the minor staffers fill-ing the background, all seem well developed and much more complex than they may first appear. Sorkin’s writing glorifies passion, intelligence and hard work, and as someone who aspires to embrace all three, I find “The Newsroom” abso-lutely enthralling.

“The Newsroom” airs Sunday evenings at 10 p.m. on HBO. The show’s first episode was made officially available for free on Youtube.

‘The Newsroom’ is smart, passionate

Jeff daniels puts out his best performance in years as the show’s conflicted protagonist will Mcavoy. (Submitted photo)

DOUGH Businesscommentary by Jamie ianigro

Question from anonymous from noblesville:I’m getting ready to buy an expensive piece of jewelry for a special lady. What do I need to do to make sure it’s properly protected.

response from Jamie ianigro:Congratulations on your purchase! I hope your

special lady likes it and whatever else you might have to say when you give it to her. As you have recently realized, jewelry is high-valued, easily lost or destroyed and vulnerable to theft.

Jewelry is covered on a standard home policy, but usually has a special limit on the total amount of coverage (usually a few hundred dollars). It doesn’t sound like a few hundred dollars is going to cover your potential purchase. Luckily, there are a few options available to protect your jewelry.

Adding an endorsement to your home policy is the easiest way to protect your jewelry, but you can also purchase a separate policy or roll the dice and leave it uninsured. When deciding which method you are going to go with, there are a few questions you should keep in mind:

• Does the coverage consider jewelry values that increase over time?

• Does it cover mysterious disappearance (it’s gone, but you don’t know when or how it disappeared)?

• What causes of loss does the policy cover and exclude?

The next thing you need to figure out is what your piece of jewelry is worth. Since this item will be newly purchased, you have a store receipt or certificate from the jeweler. If you don’t have a receipt or the item has not been appraised recently, it’s time to seek out an expert and get an updated appraisal. Sometimes a jewelry store that you frequent will offer free appraisals, but usually you have to pay for an appraiser’s ser-vices. The American Society of Appraisers is a good resource if you’re looking for an appraiser. You can use the “Find an Appraiser” feature on their appraisers.org website.

It is common practice to have your appraisals updated every three to five years. In addition, there are a few other things you should consider doing:

• Take photos of your jewelry from several angles

• Keep original receipts and appraisals • Consider keeping your jewelry in a hidden

safe or storage areaMake sure you’re not being overprotective

though. Jewelry is bought to be worn and can’t be enjoyed sitting in a safe.

Don't lose your wallet when paying for jewelry coverage

Dr. Matthew Will spoke to members of the Carmel Chamber of Commerce Wednesday at the organizations monthly luncheon, held at the Monon Community Center.

Will is the director of external relations for the University of Indianapolis School of Busi-ness. He is the co-author of “Innovative Inves-tor,” a software/text book package covering investment and portfolio management topics.

Will spoke to Chamber members about the impact of global trade on the economies of America and Indiana.

“Sometimes global trade gets a bad rap,” he said. “But I’m telling you, without global trade, we couldn’t have absorbed 100 million more people (from 1970 to 2007) and found jobs for them. We need trade.”

For the complete article about Will’s speech,

LIFESTYLE Spirituality

commentary by Bob walters

My friend Larry, a retired school superinten-dent in our Sunday morning Bible fellowship, had a frightening stroke last month but has bounced back pretty well.

He’s at church each week and endures a slight physical impairment with good humor and a still-razor-sharp mind. He shared with us that, because he credits his faith in Christ for his even-keeled, almost unconcerned reaction to his medical situation, his physical therapist calls him the “independent stroke patient.”

That got a laugh from our group, and it prompted me to blurt out loud (as I too often do), “Isn’t it odd how a Christian who trusts and relies on the Lord is considered to be ‘inde-pendent’ by the outside world?”

Truly, life in Christ is liberating. But not in a way that our self-centered world, culture and society readily understand; not in a way any hu-man mind could have conceived to bring peace, joy and salvation.

Christian freedom requires complete depen-dence on Christ. Jesus had to die to beat death so we could live eternally. The only way to be a master in the Kingdom of God is to be a “dulos” (which in biblical Greek really means “slave” but is antiseptically translated in modern Bibles as the less-contentious “servant”). None of these truths makes earthly sense, but they do, in

Christ, make a pathway to God.How? Jesus was 100 percent about giving. We

ask “What’s in it for me?”That’s not a new question. Peter asks Jesus in

Matthew 19:27, “We have left everything to fol-low you! What then will there be for us?” Jesus’ an-swer in verses 28-30 is at once remarkable and, I’m sure to the disciples’ ears, incomprehensible.

“Sit on a throne in heaven … judge the nations of Israel … receive a hundred times as much (as you gave up) … inherit eternal life.” While our minds are stuck on earthly payback, God’s plan is eternal glory.

You want to be greatest in the kingdom? Be the least. You want to be first? Be last (verse 30). Get on your face in complete humility with faith in Christ and praise God. There is no way to trade for the grace of Christ, because grace is all about giving. Like my pastor friend John Samples said, “When all you want to do is give, you will never be disappointed.” That’s true independence.

Larry doesn’t ask, “What’s in it for me?” His faith is sufficient, and he knows he has nothing to trade for the grace of Christ. The world wants Larry to worry; he knows Christ wants us to trust.

Don’t worry, be faithful

LIFESTYLE Design

commentary by Vicky earley

An interior decorating screen is somewhat like a woman in a veil. It hides what you want to hide while fostering mystery and intrigue.

Room screens since the Chinese began us-ing them as far back as 200 B.C. The Japanese adopted them in the seventh century while Europeans lagged behind in this decorating trend until the 1600’s.

The first screens were elaborately decorated with paintings and carv-ings and they originally functioned as art and status symbols.

Screens have evolved into a practical inte-rior design tool. How else could you alter the structure of a home without making a single structural change? Folding screen room divid-ers are easily removable and storable when not needed since they are freestanding. The best part of using a screen is that they can be moved with every decorating whim.

A screen recently came to the rescue when the Artichoke team had to come up with a last minute headboard. An animal skin pattern tri-fold screen was paired with a rich paisley for a dramatic twist on a classic.

A screen is a fail proof way to liven up a dreary room by filling dead spaces. When used in an empty corner of a room, a landing, a patio

and behind a pair of chairs, a screen can imme-diately add interest and sophistication. Consider using a screen as an unexpected headboard.

In a large space, screens can be used to pro-vide a sense of intimacy. It can separate a dining area from a living area in a large, open space.

Privacy is the side benefit to a beautiful screen and a space tucked behind a screen is suddenly a cozy, dedicated safe space.

Screens are a great way to hide something unsightly and any clut-ter. You can hide just about anything from anything from bad architecture to stereo equipment.

If you don’t have room for a home office, consider a screen in your living room or bed-room by placing a desk on the other side of the screen in those rooms. The desk is out of view in the evening when relaxation is the goal and the bed is out of view during the work day when you wish you could relax!

A screen, whether an ornate antique or fabricated today, can offer an element of style while concealing something unattractive...or even downright ugly!

Hide the unslightly and add style

Pastel Dip-DyeDip-dyed tips might be semi-permanent, but the trend has some real staying power. Stars like Lauren Conrad, Jaime King, and Coco Rocha have been going bold and experimenting with edgy new hues. When you're dealing with a synthetic color like this, you don't have to consider the skin tone or eye color the same way you would with more natural shades. If you're not ready to commit to a pink or blue dye, try colored extensions, or Eufora’s Creative Streak Temporary Hair Color Spray, which can be found at Salon 01.

The Oversized Top KnotThe top knot has gotten super-sized! Go for a big ballerina bun when you really want to make a statement. Start by creating a tight pony at the

crown of your head, and back comb it into a wild mess. Then, tame it with a paddle brush as you work it into your desired shape. For the most dramatic look, make sure the height of the updo aligns with your chin.

Peekaboo BraidsSubtle braids like January Jones's, Kristin Cavallari's, and Ahna O'Reilly's add a feminine touch to updos and down 'dos alike. This style works best on hair the day after a shampoo. The extra texture will help hold the hair when braiding and pinning. Try tiny plaits on each side of your head, or a French braided bun!

These top out�t accents will keep you looking hot and feeling cool. Come shop the Salon 01 boutique for more of the latest styles and trends.· Oval shaped sunglasses· PVC tote· Chunky watch· Bright wedges

INSIDE & OUT Outdoors

landscaping by randy sorrell

Michelangelo penciled his last design to guide seasoned stonecutters in the spring of 1563. The frustration for the 88 year old was apparent by the blood red chalk used to convey his cutting instruction for the travertine blocks destined for the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica.

Imagine centuries later, this porous form of limestone remains a dynamic design material whose lasting historic structures have survived wars, famines and political statements. It’s no wonder that Hoosiers are loving this earthy, dis-tinctive porous, material. Used by the Romans to construct temples, aquaducts, bath houses and even THE Colosseum, its’ renewed popu-larity is refreshing.

daring. luXury. classic.This daring back yard living space on Plum

Creek Golf Course redefines luxury. The smooth coolness of noche travertine laid in a classic French pattern is bordered by rich slate. A natural stone seat wall and decorative column hugs the space and is capped with slate to echo the patio border.

While privacy was not a major concern, creating a subtle “buffer zone” was important to encourage a sense of intimacy. The fashion-able grill station was constructed out of manu-factured stone and tastefully customized with a natural stone ribbon used in the seat wall. Oversized curly sandstone slabs were employed

to produce a natural counter that is humbly, magazine quality.

shade.As usual, every ounce of shade is appreciated

and the thin pergola growing from the grill counter offers a bit of respite. The architectural window lattice supports a recently released, tame wisteria that promises to predictably bloom and magnetize hummingbirds.

There is something intuitive when both a

client and designers dream merge. The vision for this space was bold and immediate. Michel-angelo said “I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free”.

Classic travetine becoming more popular

INSIDE & OUT Indoors

Remodeling by david decker

Whether a homeowner is selling or staying, updating or overhauling, more likely to make reservations than to make dinner, or is just plain ready for a change, maximizing the value of a custom kitchen improvement requires matching function and cost to goals and budget.

“Why” helps dictate the “what” in building kitchen value.

For example, selling a home with a 25-year-old kitchen will cost the seller money at the closing table. To avoid that loss, a seller is wise to consult both a realtor and home improve-ment specialist to find out what will rebuild value into the kitchen. This can mean adding marketable name-brand appliances, identifiable materials (e.g., “granite countertops”), modern cabinet technology and energy-efficient systems.

And while it might be financially important in that case to “go big,” it’s even more important not to go “too big,” making the investment un-recoverable. But “value” in that project, a home that is on the market, is quite different from the value of a kitchen for a homeowner planning to stay and use the new kitchen.

In this second case, livability becomes more important than marketability, and again, profes-sional consultation on design and function will lead to greater value, less waste, better function and fewer headaches. A professional will know

the comparability and pricing of the vast selec-tions of kitchen appliances, products and mate-rials. For example, there may be a better-valued option than a brand-name appliance. In another example, we saved a client nearly $10,000 by knowing that in a particular application, it was actually less expensive to install custom cabine-try than semi-custom.

Achieving top value requires professional knowledge of design, the marketplace, skilled trades and project administration, matched with a clear picture of the homeowners’ goals and budget, combined with smart planning and constant communication.

That’s the right recipe for building great, af-fordable value into your kitchen improvement project.
