Westfield Boulevard construction to start this fall By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com
Within the next six weeks, a road construction project which has been planned since 2016 will begin. ROADS The Westfield Boulevard extension will connect the roundabout at Ind. 32 and Shamrock Boulevard to David Brown Drive, also known as 169th Street. “This project has been in the works for a very long time. Since 2016 is when we partnered with (the Indiana Dept. of Transportation) for this,” Director of Public Works Jeremy Lollar said. Normally, the city either funds its own road projects or does so through the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization, but Lollar said the project is funded through a federal exchange program with INDOT. “The reasoning behind INDOT’s willingness to fund this is when U.S. 31 came through, it eliminated the full access at 169th Street,” Lollar said. “INDOT determined they needed to provide better access to businesses along 169th Street, and this road aligned with our long-term thoroughfare plan to provide connectivity throughout the city. That’s how it kind of originated.” The federal exchange will fund 75 cents on every dollar, so INDOT will pay $4.5 million of the $4.87 million project. Eventually, the road will extend to 161st Street. “In the long term, the plan is to connect to the 161st (Street) portion, which is already constructed, and connect Ind. 32 down to 146th Street,” Lollar said. “That’s not determined yet. It will come with development.” The project also will include widening and reconstruction to Park Street and the

roundabout at Ind. 32 and Shamrock Boulevard. No closures are anticipated. Lollar said some of the new road will pass through an undeveloped area, zoned the Grand Millennium Center planned unit development, north of David Brown Drive. When complete, Westfield Boulevard will be one lane in each direction with a dedicated turn lane. Part of the project also includes an extension to the Midland Trail, which will connect to the Poplar Street trail and jog south to 169th Street and then to the Monon. The trail will be constructed in the spring. Completion is expected by the end of 2020. The first phase of Westfield Boulevard, which is Ind. 32 to David Brown Drive, also will open by the end of 2020.

Proposal meets pushback By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com A proposed development that could bring 490 age-restricted homes to Westfield is making its way through the HOUSING city’s approval process. Developer Pulte Homes is petitioning the city to rezone 245 acres on the north and south sides of 151st Street west of Towne Road to build Claiborne Farms, a Del Webb community similar to Britton Falls in Fishers. But at an Oct. 7 meeting of the Westfield Advisory Plan Commission, citizens voiced concerns about the proposed density, two homes per acre, in an area that is otherwise rural. Resident Megan O’Connor, who lives nearby the property on Shelborne Road, was concerned about the lack of details. “The plan that’s been given to us is very vague,” O’Connor said. “If we’re given a very vague plan to start with, we won’t know what’s actually going to come. I’m worried we’re going to end up with a very undesirable neighborhood in that area.” The homes would range in price from $260,000 to $400,000. Development plans also include a 7,000-square-foot indoor com-

The numbers listed in the ordinance only established a range and not set salaries. The 2.6 percent increase was only a reflection of a study examining cities of similar size and those salaries. The 2.6 percent was not the actual pay increase for each employee. Best Halloween displays — Have a neighbor with a fantastic Halloween display or would you like recognition for yourself?

Quakenbush attends national Boundaries are meant to benext challenged. law enforcement event Built forBuilt your adventure. for your next adventure. By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Hamilton County Sheriff Dennis Quakenbush’s top priority is keeping county residents safe. That means stopping the flow of drugs. “With the recent PUBLIC SAFETY epidemic with heroin and fentanyl and crime and death that we see in our community, it’s something I see for us to continue to address at every front,” Quakebush said. “If we’ve got a significant supply coming into our community, we want to address it as best we can. They are mixing the fentanyl with the heroin to get a better high and it can cause cardiac arrest and death. The majority of drugs that come into Hamilton County are coming across the Mexican border. We estimate 80 percent of it is. “Our drug task force, for instance, when they are working cases, they are working directly with border patrol. We are arresting people from the cartels in Indianapolis and they are sending new people back to replace them almost immediately.” Quakenbush recently joined five other Indiana sheriffs and nearly 200 sheriffs from across the nation in Washington, D.C., to support secure borders and safe communities. During the Sept. 25-26 event, Quakenbush met with many state and federal legislators and federal law enforcement agencies, attended an administrative briefing and panel discussions with the Dept. of Justice and the Dept. of Homeland security and attended a White House briefing followed by a meeting with President Donald Trump. “I’m encouraged by the federal law enforcement agencies and their willingness to

Quakenbush said the group also met with legislators to discuss the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program, which provides financial assistance to states and localities for costs incurred for incarcerating undocumented criminal aliens. Quakenbush said the problem of human trafficking was another main topic. “Some of the statistics they provided in the briefing were just incredible, something like at least 30 percent of girls are raped traveling to the United States,” he said. “The border patrol agents and even some making traffic stops in Oklahoma are making stops where cartels are driving across the border where no one in the car knows anyone else.

Braun suspends 5th District campaign By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Zionsville Republican Steve Braun has suspended his campaign for the 5th Congressional District because of health concerns. ELECTION He stated that doctors identified an issue during an annual checkup in September that will require him to step away from the campaign for “the next few months.” He did not specify the diagnosis. “I am both frustrated and disappointed to Braun have to suspend my campaign at this critical
juncture,” he stated. “Now more than ever, we need to send individuals to Washington who have the capability, the experience and the willingness to address the problems we face.“ Other Republicans in the race are Indiana State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell, Noblesville pastor Micah Beckwith, fund accountant Danny Niederberger and pediatric doctor Chuck Dietzen. Braun ran for Indiana’s 4th District in 2018, finishing second to Jim Baird in the Republican primary. He served in the Indiana House of Representatives from 2012 to 2014 and was the commissioner of the Indiana Dept. of Workforce Development until 2017.

Vote split on project By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com A proposed development that received little negative feedback during a public hearing last month DEVELOPMENT received a surprising tie vote on the Westfield Advisory Plan Commission at its Oct. 7 meeting. Commissioners voted 4-4 on a rezoning request for the proposed Poplar Street Townhomes project. Ordinarily, a tie would not be possible because there are nine members on the commission. But on this particular agenda item, commissioner Chris Woodard recused himself because of his ties to the project. Estridge Homes and 11th Street Development are petitioning the city to rezone a 1.26-acre property downtown on the west side of Poplar Street between Jersey and Park streets. If approved by the Westfield City Council, the zoning would change from multi-family low density to single-family attached residential, making way for 24 new townhomes. Commission members Scott Willis, Ginny Kelleher, Bob Smith and Steve Hoover voted

in favor of sending a favorable recommendation to the city council. Members Andre Maue, Dave Schmitz, Bob Horkay and Randy Graham voted against. “I really struggled because I like the product that’s proposed,” Maue said. “It was brought up at the last meeting, the concern about location, and that’s kind of where I landed on this, what this may do for potential development on this block and as a gateway. This could have an impact that may take us away from what the subdistrict’s plan was. So, while I’m not opposed to the product, I am opposed to the location.” Because of the split vote, the city council will receive no recommendation from the commission and will discuss and vote on the request at a future meeting.
Barktoberfest returns By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com The third annual Barktoberfest benefitting the Humane Society for Hamilton County will return to Asa Bales PETS Park Oct. 26. Community Events Coordinator Kelley Wells said many familiar attractions will be offered. “There will be an agility arena where the dogs can go in and try out some agility equipment. We have 40 vendors which are all pet-related, except for the sponsor booths,” Wells said. “In the Canine Cabana, we have a professional photo booth where you pose with your dog and get a free professional print. The Westfield High School Animal Club will be on-site doing a pet craft, a paw print keepsake.” The event is from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Humane Society also will have a tent with a silent auction featuring five to 10 items. Food and wine will be available for purchase. Jack’s Donuts will sell doughnuts, coffee and pup cups. Wells said she doesn’t have a fundraising goal other than surpassing what the event

raised last year, which was approximately $3,000. Tickets are $5 per person. Dogs must be on non-retractable leashes. “One of the biggest highlights at the event is a pet costume contest,” Wells said. The contests are at noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. There are three classes for each contest: small, big and rescue. “The winner of each class competes in best in show at the same time,” Wells said.

Clinic moves to more functional space, begins considering mental health options By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Westfield’s Heart and Soul Free Clinic has offered care for uninsured and underinsured patients for 10 years, but new Executive Director Lisa Kreag fears not COVER STORY enough people are aware of the clinic’s services. Kreag plans to utilize social media, attend chamber of commerce events and take other proactive steps to spread the word. The clinic recently moved from a former house on Penn Street to a new facility at 17338 Westfield Park Rd., Suite 1, just west of City Hall. The new space is more functional for the clinic’s needs. Recently, the clinic established a mobile clinic and a dental clinic. Eventually, Kreag wants to offer mental health services but acknowledges that’s still on the distant horizon. Kreag became involved with the clinic as a volunteer in the fall of 2018. She’s a licensed clinical social worker and a Westfield resident. “When I came to volunteer, I started doing front desk stuff when we had clinics, and my conversation was always with the (former) director on how to add a mental health piece to this, because I can provide counseling. That’s something we are hoping to add at some point,” she said. “We have a lot of work to do and get organized before we get anything, and we need volunteers and mental health providers.” Kreag also said the clinic needs interpreters, specifically those who speak Spanish and Arabic. Forty-six percent of the clinic’s patients speak Spanish, and 12 percent speak Arabic. At the Penn Street location, Medical Coordinator Katie Fair said the dental area was in a makeshift porch. “Our dental in the other location was relatively new and it was in a configured porch area and it was growing a ton, which is one of the reasons we moved buildings,” Fair said. “We expanded when we got here (to Westfield Park Road). Here, we’ve just had the room to grow, so we have lists and

Kreag started her position Aug. 20. Her top priority is to get the word out about the free services. “My goal is to get more community awareness of this clinic,” she said. “The clinic has been here in Westfield for 10 years, since 2009, and I feel like there are some people who are aware of it but the majority don’t know about us. If they do know about us, they don’t know we have moved or think we are another clinic in a different location.” A 10th anniversary gala will be at 7 p.m. Nov. 2 at Chatham Hills. Festivities will include a live auction and silent auction, hors d’oeuvres and music by My Yellow Rickshaw. Tickets are $125. For more, visit heartandsoulclinic.org.
HOURS OF OPERATION Along with medical care, Heart and Soul Free Clinic also provides dental treatment for uninsured and underinsured residents of central Indiana. The clinic has two dental surgical chairs, a chair for cleanings and a chair for X-rays. Katie Fair receives an X-ray.
lists of people who need a (dental) chair.” Fair said the provider list of dentists in the area has grown as well. “This place is better configured to be a doctor’s office versus a house that was retrofitted to serve the purposes of a clinic,” Kreag said. The clinic now has two dedicated exam rooms, an immunization room that can be converted into an exam room, a nurse’s room and dental area, which has two chairs — one for cleanings and one for X-rays.
The Heart and Soul Free Clinic recently expanded its hours and days of operation with its recent move: • Dental clinic: First Saturday and third Thursday of each month. No walk-ins, appointment required. • Medical clinic: Every Wednesday of the month by appointment only, the second and fourth Saturday of the month walk-in and the third Tuesday of the month by appointment only as a follow-up. • Mobile clinic: Visits the Grace Care Center for consecutive days on the first full week of the month, with dates varying. On the third Friday of the month, it visits Carmel United Methodist Center for walk-ins and appointments. For a full list of dates and hours, visit heartandsoulclinic. org.

Even as the last days of summerlike sun warm our Hoosier families, thoughts begin to turn toward the coming winter. Merchants, eager to edge out the competition, have already begun squawking about the impending holiday seasons. Forgive this column’s intrusion into an already crowded field of gate jumpers, too eager to skip this lovely season in anticipation of the next, but one holiday tradition stands to be revived and renewed just this year. Thanks to the remarkable generosity of John Deere farm and lawn equipment impresario Gary Reynolds and his wife, Cindy, the decades-long run (beginning in 1955, reflecting the love of the season with Gary’s parents Mac and Arline) held at the company’s former headquarters at Ind. 37 and I-465 will be continued with a new partnership and locale. Conner Prairie living history museum will now host the elaborate displays as a part of its new “A Merry Prairie Holiday,” from Nov. 29 to Dec. 29. Reynolds and his family are well-known for their support of our communities, and this gift is no exception. Much planning and consideration has been given on how to best preserve the celebration, attract visitors to enjoy a new seasonal favorite at Conner Prairie while not burdening the nonprofit with the considerable effort of hosting the spectacular. As we struggle to take in the lights, now counting north of 1 million, we are able to make food donations along the way. This year, a familiar beacon — new to Conner Prairie — will light the season, and we’ll be there to see it. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Road rudeness drives me crazy Commentary by Danielle Wilson I have had it with mean drivers! And I’m petrified for my youngest, who recently obtained her permit. I’ve done the math: Her bad driving plus strangers’ HUMOR mean driving equals multiple insurance claims. Take my recent trip to Columbus, Ohio. In an effort to garner Favorite Aunt status, I drove six hours roundtrip to see a niece belt out “When You Wish Upon a Star” in her fifth-grade musical. I made the first leg without incident but hit trouble almost immediately during my return. First, there were the three cars that refused to let me into their lane because I had not been duped into merging 2 miles earlier. Friends, it’s called a zipper merge because you are supposed to continue all the way to the point of the closure, not get over immediately while you are still five towns back. Pretending not to see me as they kissed
the car butts in front of them was just plain mean. It’s not my fault you’re a sucker! Next, there were the two obnoxious truckers who drove side-by-side at 7 mph for 20 frustrating minutes this side of the Indiana border. No construction, no emergencies and no one in front of them. What the flip? I honked my horn. I tried to go around. I even called their company numbers. All to no avail. Eventually, the semis moved on, but seriously? Why would they deliberately slow down traffic like that? Why? Because they are mean. Look, I’ve got a new driver on the roads. She’s going to need patience and a wide berth from each of you. Please don’t be mean! I can’t afford it! Peace out.

READER’S VIEW
Why all the hullabaloo? Editor, It is always frustrating to hear slippery slope arguments like that of Mari Briggs of Sheridan attempting, like the NRA, to frighten gun owners. First, I would like to remind everyone that when the Second Amendment was written, the U.S. did not have a standing Army. Our government could not afford to provide arms for volunteers, so they permitted private citizens to arm themselves so they were prepared if called upon to fight. Second, the reference to “Democratic candidates” posing a threat to “innocent gun owners” suggests that arms will be confiscated should a Democrat take office. A certain number of “assault-style” weapons were banned in this nation for 10 years (1994-2004). There was no civil war
as a result. President Obama was in office for eight years, and there was never an attempt made to disarm this nation. So, why all the hullabaloo? Most Americans in this nation want to see sensible gun control, but the NRA and those with their private war rooms hold on to their guns as if tomorrow was Armageddon. I, too, am a gun owner. The difference is I use them for sport but never feel the need to carry to protect myself nor keep a loaded gun by my bed in case of an intruder or the breakout of civil war. Guns and rifles which accommodate large-capacity magazines are fine in the field of battle but do not belong within a civilized society. J.E. Lynch, Westfield

Brett and Mary Ellen and I just returned from a fabulous vacation in Peru (South America, not Indiana). We flew HUMOR to Miami (Florida, not Ohio) where we had a 13-hour layover, which is like a sleepover, but without jammies and a blankie. What do you do for 13 hours at the Miami International Airport? I wanted to wander around, but I was afraid I’d get lost. I didn’t want to be MIA at MIA. To pass the time, I did a little exercising. My most innovative workout was to walk on the moving walkway in the opposite direction, simulating my treadmill at home. I was doing well until this really attractive flight attendant walked by and I slingshot backwards into an Auntie Anne’s pretzel stand. After a long flight, we landed in Lima (Peru, not Ohio). Our ultimate destination was Machu Picchu, called the Lost City. I hope the people who lived there in the 1400s didn’t feel that way. I mean, it was right there when they got out of bed. They couldn’t have been that bad with directions. Each evening, our guide sent an email telling us when to get up, what time to
have breakfast and what we were going to do the next day. Big deal. I get a text like that every morning from Mary Ellen. The Wolfsies avoided one traditional food: guinea pig on a stick. This delicacy would make anything on a stick at the Indiana State Fair seem more appealing. One day, we visited an alpaca farm. That evening, the menu included alpaca stew. I couldn’t eat that dish after seeing these adorable animals, but I do love my new alpaca sweater. When we returned home, there was a block party going on and Mary Ellen was showing our neighbors the elegant necklace and bracelet she bought in Cusco, a thriving city about 45 miles from Machu Picchu. Unfortunately, they thought she said Costco, and that took a lot of the charm away from the story. We’re already discussing plans for next year’s adventure. My wife is thinking Costa Rica. I am thinking Brazil (Indiana, not South America).

Tailgaiting doesn’t speed up commute — Research out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 2017 suggests that if we all keep an equal distance (similar to how birds in flocks fly), we’d get to our destinations twice as fast. The study confirmed that maintaining an equal distance between cars on either end of you gets you to your destination significantly faster than if you tailgate the car in front of you.

CCP presents ‘Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The iconic movie “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” has always been a favorite of Jan Jamison. PLAY So naturally, the Westfield resident and director wanted to bring the play adaptation to the stage. The 1967 movie featured Spencer Tracy, Katharine Hepburn and Sidney Poitier in the lead roles. “Spencer Tracy died just 2 1/2 weeks after they concluded filming and they all knew he was sick,” Jamison said. “The emotions are very real, especially (Hepburn’s) face and reaction. The acting is superb. We don’t want to copy Tracy, Hepburn and Poitier. We want to have our own (portrayals).” Carmel Community Players will present “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” at The Cat, 254 Veterans Way, Carmel, this month. Like the movie, the play is set in 1967 when a daughter brings an older, black doctor she is dating home to meet her white parents. “It was a bit of a shock,” Jamison said. “They are a very liberal family, so they are faced with their own convictions of nonprejudice. It’s still pertinent today.” Natalie Weber, a 2014 Guerin Catholic High School graduate who grew up in Fishers, is playing Joanna Drayton, the daughter. “I was getting aggravated because I couldn’t find anything for me, but I saw they were going to have a role for someone 23, which is my age right now,” Weber said. “I was excited because I thought I could do this role. It’s a drama and a comedy. In college, I did improv comedy, so I’m used to more comedic roles. But since this one is more serious it will be interesting and challenging for me.” Weber knew the premise of the movie. “Jan got the cast together to watch the movie, which I thought was a really great way to get that camaraderie with the cast,” Weber said. At the time, interracial marriage was still against the law in 17 states until struck down by a Supreme Court ruling in June 1967, shortly after the movie was

filmed. Indianapolis resident Onis Dean plays Dr. John Prentice. Dean said he acts in musicals 95 percent of the time. “My parents grew up loving Sidney Poitier, so when Jan saw me in ‘Jesus Christ Superstar,’ (with Mud Creek Players) she said I should at least come and audition,” Dean said. When he came in for the reading, Dean said he fell in love with the powerful script. John D. Carver, Greenwood, is playing the role of Matt Drayton. It is his first show with CCP for the veteran community theater performer. Carver was attracted to the role because of his admiration for Tracy. “I’ve done ‘Inherit the Wind’ and a couple of other things that (Tracy has) done,” Carver said. “I like the man. I like his style. I like his acting technique. This has been one of my favorite movies to watch over the years, so when I saw the auditions, I jumped at the chance.” Marie McNelis, an Indianapolis resident, portrays Christina Dayton. McNelis acted in high school and college but only returned to acting a year ago.
“I was a speech and drama major in college,” McNelis said. “I put that on the shelf, then I retired and decided I wanted to dust that off and start up. Jan gave me my first role at Buck Creek Players in ‘37 Postcards.’” McNelis said Jamison alerted her to the auditions for the role. “I was in my freshman year in college when this came out, and I was just bowled over first by the subject matter and the wonderful acting done by Spencer Tracy and the underacting that was done by Katharine Hepburn,” she said. Westfield resident Lisa Warner plays Hillary St. George, who works with Christina Drayton at the art gallery. Warner said it’s not a pleasant role to play because of her racism, but it’s essential to the storyline. “I won’t even shake Dr. Prentice’s hand when he offers it,” Warner said of the racist nature of her character. Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. Oct. 18, 19, 24, 25 and 26 and 2:30 p.m. Oct. 20 and 27. Tickets are $15 for students and seniors and $17 for adults. For more or to buy tickets, visit carmelplayers.org.

Local chefs in national spotlight By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com
Justin Miller, executive chef of Carmel’s Anthony’s Chophouse and 3UP, will have a chance to show his skills at a national competition. COMPETITION Miller was named to Team Indiana, a group of Hoosier chefs and home cooks heading to Dallas to compete in the Oct. 16-20 World Food Championships. Miller received his golden ticket to the WFC by winning the Taste of Piazza 2019 competition in Indianapolis. He will be assisted at the competition by Evan Slusher, Anthony’s Chophouse’s executive sous chef. Slusher, a 2011 Noblesville High School graduate, also assisted Miller in the Taste of Piazza in August at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The duo prepared a turkey dish. “It’s a unique opportunity to show not just the cooking side of Indiana but Indiana products,” Miller said. Miller said the golden ticket put the duo in one of 10 categories. “We’ll be in the recipe category,” Miller said. “Our first round is decided for us. We have to make a vegan dish. Our second

round, we will present our signature dish. Out of the 60 competitors in our category, the top 10 are selected, if we are fortunate enough to get that far.” There are 1,500 competitors in the 10 categories, and 10 winners will later compete for $100,000.
Time for sweater-weather wine Commentary by Elizabeth Morse Pulling out sweaters and jeans this week has reminded me that with the change in weather, new, bolder WINEderlust wine selections are in order. With cool temps, we often want something that’s going to “warm us up.” In wine-speak, that translates into heavier-bodied, full-flavored reds. There’s a great little wine shop at the northeast corner of 116th and Olio Road in Fishers called Tasteful Times. You can find each of the wines I’ll mention there. It also has a fun selection of artisanal local fare, which I love. Tell ‘em I sent you. One of my very favorite varietals is inky, toffee-full Petit Sirah. For me, fall is permission to indulge! McManis ($12) makes this scrumptious, value-driven bottle. Dark black fruit is nearly overpowered with caramel and cocoa. Think about a dried blueberry covered in dark chocolate Milk Duds. The flavors are big, the finish is long and the price is low. If you’ve never given Petit Sirah a try, this is a great jumping-off point. 2017 Fidelity Red Wine Crazy Creek, Alexander Valley, will set you back a little more
than $15. A Bordeaux-style blend (merlot, petit verdot and cabernet sauvignon) is a great value from California. The merlot contributes flavors of ripe blueberries and cordial cherries. The cabernet adds structure and a nice long finish while the petit verdot brings color, tannin and a pretty whiff of violets to the table. New French Oak adds warm vanilla to this bright little number. Vindicated Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma County ($18) stands out as a deal. If you’ve traveled to this area, you’ll know what I mean when I say that this wine “smells” like Sonoma. Bright and brambly right off the bat (think ripe with blackberries and raspberries) with a little cocoa and lots of warm wood in the background. And the tiniest hint of eucalyptus. Medium tannins and strong structure with 14.4 percent ABV will warm you right up. Elizabeth Morse owned the Corner Wine Bar in Broad Ripple for nearly to 20 years. She is a graduate of IU, is a Hoosier chef, food writer, wine guru and Hamilton County Master Gardener. Morse has been a resident of Hamilton County for more than a decade.

A very over-used word Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
The Burnt House in Jerusalem. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Horrors in the Burnt House Commentary by Don Knebel Jerusalem’s so-called “Burnt House” shows the horrors that befell Jewish families when first-century Roman TRAVEL soldiers brutally put down the First Jewish Revolt. In the fall of 66 A.D., Jewish rebels managed to expel the hated Romans from Jerusalem and began extending their influence throughout Roman Judea. Emperor Nero dispatched 60,000 troops to the area, commanded by generals Vespasian and Titus. On August 29, 70 A.D., after a long and deadly siege, Titus and his troops broke down the walls and entered Jerusalem. They set fire to the city, destroying the Second Temple. The historian Josephus, who had led Jewish forces against the Romans, later reported that there were 1.1 million casualties from the First Jewish Revolt, most of them Jewish. The horrors of the Roman siege and the burning of Jerusalem came to life after Israel gained control of East Jerusalem in the 1967 Six-Day War and began excavating the Jewish Quarter. In 1970, archaeologists uncov-
ered the remains of a four-room manor on Mount Zion, once the home of Jerusalem’s elite because of its proximity to the Temple. A stone weight found among the ashes identified the owner of the house as the Katros family, a family of Second Temple priests. Coins dated the destruction to the time of the First Jewish Revolt. Also found in the kitchen were the forearm bones of a young woman, killed in the fire. In another room, archaeologists uncovered an iron spear, presumably used by a Jewish fighter living in the house. Oil lamps and other household items were buried among the rubble. Today, the Burnt House is open to the public. In accordance with Jewish law, the bones of the young woman have been buried, but the house contains a picture of them. The spear still stands poignantly in the corner where it was discovered. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel.com.

DISPATCHES Can I microwave this? — Microwaves are modern-day magical beasts that indulge our expectations of instant gratification and rescue children who forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer from the wrath of the parents who told them to do so. However, if you try to nuke the wrong thing, your microwave just might breathe fire. To answer all your definitely not dumb questions about what the “wrong thing” to microwave actually is, there’s a website called Can You Microwave?. It covers everything from clothes (surprisingly, yes, with a few caveats) to cookie dough (sadly, no), and each entry contains an explanation of why
it does or doesn’t belong in a microwave. If the item is safe, the site also provides directions on how best to microwave it. Source: Mentalfloss.com Indoor air quality — To improve indoor air quality, one of the easiest fixes is to replace paraffin candles with beeswax candles. Paraffin is made from petroleum, which creates smoke that can be irritating to those with asthma and allergies. Beeswax candles emit almost no smoke so they are better for your air.

“Substitute ‘damn’ every time you’re inclined to write “very”; your editor will delete it, and the writing will be just as it should be.” GRAMMAR GUY -Mark Twain Here’s the scene: You offer to drive to lunch, and, just before everyone gets in, you make a mad sweep around your car, grabbing old to-go cups and discarded wrappers and putting them in an old Wendy’s bag. Maybe that’s not you; perhaps your car is somewhat tidier. Regardless, just as everyone gets into your car, you commence with the obligatory statement that goes something like this: “Sorry, my car is such a mess. It’s very dirty. I’ve been meaning to vacuum it out for the past six years.” Whether our car interiors are clean or not, we all repeat a version of the obligatory apology when we give someone else a ride. Guess what? It’s unnecessary. You have permission to quit apologizing. Here’s a word we don’t need to say anymore: very. “The book was very funny.” “The Olympian jumped very high.” “The president was very upset.” Boring.
If “very” is overused, as I suggest, what alternatives do we have? Let me propose two options. First, simply omit the word and proceed with your sentence as usual. As Mr. Twain suggests, you should simply search your entire document (when writing) or somehow audit your brain for words it knows (when speaking), then merely delete the word from your entire lexicon. You don’t need to say or write “very” if you’re using it as a “filler” or “padding” word. The same thing goes for the word “really.” Really. Rather than saying something is “very fast,” say it was “quick.” If you want to convey that something is “very good,” instead say that it is “superb.” Don’t say “very hungry.” “Ravenous” is much more interesting. Substituting the word “very” will infuse your speech with the exact intensity or tone you want. So, either stop saying “very” or find a better word.
