All you need is love. Council approves tax abatements for Becknell, VanTrust projects Compiled by Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com
The Zionsville Town Council met Feb. 4. The next town council meeting is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. Feb. 19 at Zionsville Town Hall, 1100 W Oak St. For more, visit Zionsville-in.gov. What happened: The council unanimously approved a confirmatory resolution for an economic development revitalization and approved the applications for a real property tax abatement from the Becknell project. What it means: Rezoning for the Becknell project was approved late last year. The project includes three to four new industrial buildings, totaling approximately 1 million square feet on Ind. 267. It will create up to $55 million of new investment. “This provides a fantastic opportunity to add to our tax base in an area that requires very few or limited municipal services from the Town of Zionsville, so it’s kind of a win-win for our community,” said Matt Price, a partner at Bingham Greenebaum Doll, who presented on the project.
By approving the tax abatements to bring the Becknell project to the area, during the next 10 years the development will pay more than $3.9 million in new taxes. Without the project, during the same 10 years, the area would only collect $52,000 in taxes without the abatement. Council member Kevin Spees asked if the tax abatement was required for the Becknell project to proceed, which Price confirmed it was. The project is expected to break ground this spring.
What happened: The council unanimously approved a confirmatory resolution for an economic development revitalization and approved applications for a real property tax abatement from the VanTrust project.

What it means: Price also presented on the VanTrust project, which totals approximately 900,000 square feet of new industrial development, also on Ind. 267. The VanTrust project also went through the rezoning process late last year. The project includes two new indus-
trial buildings creating $40 million of new investment. During the next 10 years, the project will pay $2.8 million in new taxes. Without the abatement and without the project, the area would only generate $21,000 during 10 years in new taxes.
What happened: Wastewater Treatment Plant Supt. Barry Cook presented on three new sewage works projects. What it means: The council heard a presentation from Cook on three sewage projects proposed in Zionsville. To proceed, the projects require the issuance of several revenue bonds, but Cook assured the council the bonds would not result in an increase in current rates. “We are not raising rates because of these planned projects,” Cook said. “We have the bonding capacity available and will use reserves for the rest of the projects, so there’s no need to worry of rates increasing because of this.” One of the projects includes installing a
sanitary sewer along Oak Street. “This is an area that has needed a sanitary sewer for years with the dam and the lowlying areas all through there,” Cook said. “The septic tanks are failing and I get calls almost weekly about homeowners wanting to connect, so I think this is going to be huge for the town. We expect some developments to open up on Oak Street, and I think this is going to help move those along as well.” The council will take action on the sewer bonds at its Feb. 19 meeting.

“I was blessed to find a cardiac team who fought as hard for my life, as I fought for my country.” – al d.
As a former U.S. Marine, Al flew combat helicopters into the jungles of Vietnam. Over five decades later, he began battling a series of heart complications which proved just as dangerous. Ten years ago he had five bypasses at Community Heart and Vascular. And now, years later, a heart murmur was growing more concerning, and simple chores had him short of breath. Through minimally invasive surgery, Al underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) at Community. Via a stent, Al’s aortic valve was replaced with the heart valve from a cow. In just two days, he was back carrying the garbage to the curb. Grateful he says, “that I get the privilege of putting my hand over a heart that’s still ticking.” Exceptional care. Simply delivered.

Boone County schools above graduation-rate average By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Last month, the Indiana Dept. of Education released graduation rates for all public school districts in the EDUCATION state. The waiver graduation rate and the nonwaiver graduation rate increased, on average, statewide. There are four school districts in Boone County – Zionsville Community Schools, Lebanon Community School Corp., Sheridan Community Schools and Western Boone County Community School Corp. All had a graduation rate well above 90 percent. For 2018, Zionsville Community Schools led the county with a 97.18 percent graduation rate. Western Boone was next at 96.95 percent, followed by Sheridan at 95.18 per-
cent and Lebanon at 93.83 percent. With the exception of Sheridan, all Boone County school corporations saw an increase in graduation rates since 2017. Sheridan dipped slightly from a 95.52 percent rate in 2017. ZCS had a 96.91 percent graduation rate that year, followed by Western Boone at 96.03 percent and Lebanon at 90.52 percent. Collectively, Boone County schools were all above the state average, which is below 90 percent. “With the increase to Indiana’s graduation rate, it is evident our schools are committed to the academic success of our students,” Indiana Supt. of Public Instruction Jennifer McCormick stated in a press release. “While there is still work to be done, we will continue to partner with local districts to ensure every student graduates prepared for life beyond high school.”

Inventions not always of necessity Commentary by Ward Degler My wife likes to say, “The difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.” PLAIN TALK Guilty. I’m a guy, so I just naturally like gizmos, gadgets and doodads, with an occasional thingamabob thrown in for good measure. For openers, I like desktop inventions. You know, things designed to keep you from working. Newton cradles, for instance. They are both hypnotic and useless, and guys love them. The floating globe is another. The steel ball rotates endlessly between powerful magnets. A kid in my eighth-grade class built a rotor that spun between two wirewrapped rods. A simple electric motor, but it kept us hypnotized for hours. As a woodworker, I’m intrigued by gadgets that will help me do a better job of whatever it is I’m doing. I’m particularly vulnerable to safety devices. And, I use them. Table saw and router attachments likewise capture my imagination. I use some of them. Some inventions swoop down on us from the rarified air of inventors’ workshops,
carry us away for a time and then vanish. The Hula Hoop comes to mind. Likewise, the bottle cutter. And who can forget the macramé rage? For a while, there wasn’t a house in the nation that didn’t have a garden hanging from the ceiling.
Some inventions swoop down on us from the rarified air of inventors’ workshops, carry us away for a time and then vanish. The hula hoop comes to mind. Likewise, the bottle cutter. And who can forget the macramé rage? Some devices are both stupid and dangerous. The car desk, for instance. It attaches to your steering wheel so you can work while you drive. Seriously? Some inventors have way too much time on their hands. They invent things like the walking sleeping bag — a sleeping bag with legs so you can move from tent to tent without leaving the comfort of your bed.
For people who lose the TV remote, there is a remote-control couch pillow. Hold it on your lap and punch in your favorite program. Or accidentally lie down on it and wonder how the heck you got the medical school’s autopsy channel. The butter stick – butter your toast the same way you apply Chapstick. For some reason it never caught on. Neither did the smart hairbrush. I guess folks didn’t want a voice report on the health of their hair right after getting out of the shower. Still, there are inventions that I love for their absurd creativity. A DVD re-winder is one. Invite guests in for a movie, and afterward pop the disk into the machine. Tell guests you hate it when someone fails to re-wind a movie after watching it. They’ll get it when they are halfway home. My all-time favorite, though, is the latest upgrade to the Pet Rock. This one comes with a USB cord.

Zionsville couple talks tips for healthy marriage, challenges along the way By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Zionsville wife and husband Leah and Dr. David Sullivan want couples to remember to laugh together, even COVER STORY through life’s ups and downs. It’s the Sullivan’s No. 1 tip for maintaining a healthy marriage. “I think it’s really important to laugh and to be able to laugh at yourselves,” Leah said. “The first three years of marriage we moved a lot where we didn’t know anyone, for his (medical) residencies, and we had no family, and so it was just the two of us. It was really important we were able to kind of just not be so stressed, that we were able to step back.” “Always try to find something humorous,” David said. Crystal-clear communication is important, too, Leah said. “One thing that’s great about Dave, and he brought me out of the box, is he is very open. He’ll tell you like it is,” Leah said. “So, sometimes I have to think, ‘Do I really want to know the answer to this question?’ I feel that’s good because he doesn’t hold back. He gets it out there. Honest communication is not just telling them what they want to hear, it’s being able to do that but also being able to hear that as well.” David, a podiatrist who owns Westfield Foot & Ankle, said honest communication also is especially important for couples when they are considering starting a business, making a risky business move or, in his case, moving the family to a new state to launch a medical practice. “Make very sure your spouse is truly supportive of what you are wanting to do and not just placating you or playing nice, but make sure they are really on board with what your professional goals are before you
set out to do that,” he said. “And I was lucky enough mine is and was.” One of the Sullivans’ challenges after getting married was moving several times when David was in his residency. They began in Chicago, where they met, Zachary. attend a Colts game with their son, then moved to Pittsburgh, then to TucDr. David Sullivan and his wife Leah son, Ariz., then to Carbondale, Ill., then (Submitted photos) to Carmel and then to Westfield before finally settling in Zionsville. The couple moved to Zionsville three years ago. “It was very tough moving here and him opening up the practice because he had to do everything he could to build it,” Leah said. “Podiatry actually is really great to raise a family because he doesn’t have a lot of on-calls, and when he is on-call, it’s rare he has to get called in in the middle of the night or early the next morning.” Another challenge the couple encountered was infertility. The Sullivans now have a son, Zachary, who’s 12. They adopted him when he was a baby. The Sullivans will celebrate their 20th anniversary in June.
• Married: June 5, 1999 • Favorite places to go in Zionsville: Noah Grant’s, Salty Cowboy, Greek’s Pizzeria, The Friendly and Rush on Main. • Typical date night: A movie or dinner. “We’re movie people,” Leah said. • Plans for Valentine’s Day: “Since Z has been born, we stay at home and I always decorate,” Leah said. “We eat in the dining room, and we always do surf and turf for us and for Zach, we would do his favorite meal. He has been a part of Valentine’s Day since he’s been born.”

Can’t buy me love
ESSAY Fixing bias
Commentary by J. Douglas Kouns
Commentary by Terry Anker “As we forgive them that trespass against us…” holds the line from one of the most often recited prayers of the modern era. Originally published in 1611, the 14-line, 70-word devotion encourages us to remember the simple rules of a civilized life. Remember that we are subservient to a higher power. Remember that food and security are not assured. Remember that we are frail and easily tempted to our own destruction and that vengeance benefits not us or those against whom we might seek it. But in a world where many have replaced a Sunday morning reciting of the Lord’s Prayer with an endless watching of the Sunday political shows, our collective conscience seems to have moved from one of self-restraint to one of aggressive demands for retribution. Surely, if not retaliatory, the various talking heads seem to foment a sense of clannish entitlement: “We are wronged. You are taking my stuff/ dignity/position/whatever, and we will fight you to get it back.” A well-respected local arts organization recently announced its intention to adhere to 50/50 by 2020 – a plan designed to reach “parity” in the arts. All voices, if worthy, should be heard. Still, if one is to understand the thinking, because there has been bias, real or perceived, in who is getting selected to volunteer, to exhibit, to evaluate, then we must consider an institutionalized system of bias to stop bias. An eye for an eye and all that thinking. Art has long been filtered by wealth and power. Is it possible that talent matters but only as a subset of what is allowed to be seen? Still, can we expect or hope that an institutionalized bias is the tool used to fix institutionalized bias? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Let snow, let it snow, let it snow Commentary by Danielle Wilson I survived the Polar Vortex of 2019! And what’s more, I was able to reflect on how far I’ve come as a mother. HUMOR Remember the Snowpocalypse of 2014? For those of you still suffering from PTSD (Post-Traumatic Snow Disorder), recall that five years ago we had a winter break that was extended by essentially seven days thanks to a blizzard and record-low temps. I was literally trapped indoors with a moody 15-year-old, bickering twin 12-year olds and a precocious 9-year old for three full weeks. Each night, I would offer up several Hail Marys, burn incense and sacrifice a chicken cordon bleu in hopes that someone, somewhere, would get the schools open. Scrabble and breakfast for dinner can take you only so far before Legos start looking like potential weapons and one begins seriously considering a permanent move to Boca, sunburn and geriatrics be damned.
But no longer! With our oldest away at college and none of the rest emerging from hibernation until noon, at the earliest, snow days are now fun days. I anticipated with delight the dangerous wind chills and the icy roads that would keep us stuck at home by the fire with nothing to do but watch Netflix and eat cookie dough. I applauded when the two-hour delay became a cancellation, and I still had at least three hours to myself to clean the house, stalk Facebook and binge more cookie dough. Vortex schmortex. It was awesome. So, to all you parents with young ones at home, I suppose I’m offering a warm light at the end of future Snowmageddon tunnels. Hang in there! Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“Independence is happiness.” -Susan B. Anthony
They steal your heart, then steal your money. In 2017, the FBI reported more than 15,000 victims with more than FRAUD $200 million in reported losses. With Valentine’s Day approaching, it’s a good time to remind people of this prevalent and heinous scam. Recently, a person hired us to confirm the background of her online love interest. After proving he didn’t exist, she wouldn’t accept it. We warned, “He will soon tell you of an emergency and ask you for money. Don’t!” She emailed later, heartbroken, “You were right. His daughter is supposedly sick and needs $1,200 for medicine. Thank you!” Typically, the victims are older, single and emotionally vulnerable women. Predators learn this information from public social media and online dating profiles. They spend the first weeks, even months, chatting, flirting and escalating the relationship. They’ll exchange fake pictures and family stories to lure victims, gaining trust and confidence. Once the hook is set, an emergency arises and they need just a few hundred or thousand dollars. Research the person’s photo and profile using online searches. Beware if the individual seems too perfect or quickly asks you to go offline. Beware if the individual promises to meet in person, then always comes up with an excuse. Never send money to anyone you don’t know. If you suspect a scam, stop all contact immediately. If you are the victim of a scam, file a complaint with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at IC3.gov. J.

Vicious recycle cycle Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Mary Ellen and I had our usual Sunday evening conversation. “Is this the week we put out HUMOR the recycling?” I asked. “No, we put it out last week, didn’t we?” “We did, but they didn’t pick it up, so it must be this week.” “Maybe we put it out too late and missed the truck,” Mary Ellen said. “Does anyone else have their recycle bin out?” “Yes, Jerry took his out,” I said. “You can’t go by him. Jerry puts it out every Monday, Dick. He’s always the cause of the confusion.” “Wait, Eric’s putting his out now. I’m going to take ours out, too.” As I was wheeling our trash and recycling dumpsters out of the garage, Eric called to me. “Dick, is this the recycling week?” “I’m not sure, Eric. But Paul’s putting his out.” I hollered to Paul: “Are you sure this is the week for recycling?” “I don’t think it is, Dick, but I saw you guys putting yours out, and I figured you
knew.” Within minutes, every house had their yellow-lidded receptacles in the driveway. “If this is the wrong week, everyone will be blaming us,” Mary Ellen said. Monday evening, the bins were untouched, so I watched everyone haul their recyclables back into their garages. A lot of people talking trash about the Wolfsies. The next morning, I heard Rays Recycling truck approaching. “NO!” I screamed. It’s Tuesday! Then I remembered, Monday was Martin Luther King Day. No pick-up. I felt guilty for messing up everyone, so I organized a neighborhood meeting where we created a recycling schedule for the next 20 years and emailed the spreadsheet to everyone. The whole thing was very educational, but I agree with Kermit the Frog. It’s not easy being green.

Rose Senior Living holds drive By Sara Baldwin Schatz sara@youarecurrent.com Rose Senior Living Carmel partnered with Indiana Blood Center, now managed by Versiti, to play host to a GIVING BACK Jan. 29 blood drive. The blood center bus parked in front of the senior living center, 1285 Fairfax Manor Dr., Carmel, during the event. Blood center technicians Danielle Denise and Charles Arvin accepted blood from donors, including several Rose Senior Living staff. “Rose Senior Living Carmel prides itself in giving back to the community in any way we can,” said Dana Shore, marketing and sales director at Rose Senior Living. “When we realized January was National Blood Donor Month, we knew hosting a blood drive would be a great way to give back.” Indiana Blood Center announced in early January that it was in dire need of donations, as blood donations historically decline in winter months. Certain blood types, such as B positive, are in critically short supply. “Each unit can help up to three people,” Denise said.
Welcome, Jennifer Nemunaitis-Keller, MD Riverview Health Physicians OB/GYN is pleased to welcome Dr. Jennifer Nemunaitis-Keller. Jennifer Nemunaitis-Keller and the staff at Riverview Health Physicians OB/GYN are here to provide expert care for every stage of a woman’s life. As a boardcertified OB/GYN with over 20 years of experience, Dr. Nemunaitis-Keller believes it’s important to develop strong relationships with her patients so that she can respond to each woman’s unique needs.

Shore said Rose Senior Living wanted to challenge others to make giving blood a priority. “These donations are imperative to helping those in need,” she said. RVH-0354-Current-4.7667x 9.5-02.12.19-FNL.indd 1

Don’t file twice for faster tax refunds — Filing twice may put your refund on ice, warns the Indiana Dept. of Revenue. By sending multiple tax filings, individuals are freezing tax processing in its tracks, ultimately delaying their potential refund.

Franciscan Health program aims to ‘Stop the Bleed’ — In dire situations such as shootings and vehicle and work accidents, time is of the essence in treating bleeding wounds before first responders arrive on the scene. Franciscan Health offers free training to teach non-medical personnel how to stop life-threatening bleeding through wound-packing and tourniquet use. The hospital is bringing “Stop the Bleed” classes at the following sites: Feb. 12 – All day, students at New Palestine High School. 4485 S Victory Dr, New Palestine; Feb. 19 – 1 p.m., Morgan County SWAT team 160 N. Park Ave, Martinsville; Feb. 27 – Public class, Fran-
ciscan Health Education and Support Services, 431 N. Emerson Ave., Greenwood; March 6 – 2:30 to 3:30 p.m., Indian Creek Middle School, 801 South Indian Creek Dr., Trafalgar. The courses are a combination of lecture and hands-on training on wound-packing and tourniquet use to train, equip and empower the bystander in the critical first minutes after a trauma injury that causes bleeding. To learn more about the Stop the Bleed program at Franciscan Health or to schedule a training session, contact Christy Claborn at 317-528-3360. Indiana Blood Center has urgent need — Snow, ice and frigid temperatures spanning two weeks have resulted in a sharp decline in blood donations, prompting the Indiana Blood Center to issue an urgent plea for Hoosiers throughout the state to donate blood as soon as possible. Currently, there is less than a two-day supply of some blood types and even less of critical blood types like O negative. All blood types are needed but O-positive and O-negative blood are at critically low levels now. O-negative donors are universal blood donors, meaning their red blood cells can be transfused to patients with any blood type. Hoosiers can donate blood at these seven Indiana Blood Center donor centers: Indianapolis, 3450 N. Meridian St., Indianapolis; Fishers, 11005 Allisonville Road; Carmel, 726 Adams St., Suite 150; Greenwood, 8739 U.S. 31 South, 46227; Terre Haute 2021 S.

Carmel Community Players production takes a lyrical look at relationships By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The four-person cast of “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change,” hastens through rapid character THEATER development. “You don’t have arc of character throughout the show, but you have that in every scene,” actress Brenna Whitaker said. The Noblesville resident appears in the Carmel Community Players’ nine performances of the musical on weekends from Feb. 22 to March 10 at The Cat, 245 Veterans Way, Carmel. The musical examines relationships from first dates to dealing with marriage, child rearing, empty nests and beyond. “I did this show for the first time at Mud Creek, maybe 10 or 15 years ago,” Whitaker said. “A few years after that I did it at Myers Dinner Theatre in Hillsboro. Every character plays multiple parts. We’re a different person in every scene. After this show I will have done every women’s part. The fun thing about doing it multiple times is I was at a different stage in life each time I did it. The first time it resonated because I was single and dating. Now, I’m married with a young son, so the second act is what is resonating now.” Westfield resident Dee Timi suggested staging the musical to CCP, having directed it in Joplin, Mo., in 2008 when she lived there. “It’s that show that makes you laugh, makes you cry,” Timi said. “No matter what stage of life you’re in, it’s fun.” Libby Buck, an Indianapolis resident, saw the musical for the first time in New York on a field trip with her Valparaiso High School musical theater class. “I’ve been obsessed with it ever since,” Buck said. But she hasn’t seen it since. “This has been one of my bucket-list shows, so it’s been really exciting to participate,” she said. “The most challenging part is recalling what your character is from scene to scene.

school, I just thought it was funny. Now, I’ve been married for 10 years and have two kids of my own, so a lot of the second act makes more sense to me now.” Buck and the two male cast members, Jonathan Scoble, Carmel, and Christian Condra, Indianapolis, are making their CCP debuts. “Playing different characters is the thrill,” Scoble said. “Playing different characters are, to me, what is the most fun about acting. It’s hilarious. The script drew me in pretty quickly.” Scoble said he got a call that CCP was looking for men because not many showed up to the auditions. “Christian and I have been working together for a couple of shows now and we want to work together more,” Scoble said. Scoble, who is single, said he identifies
with several of the characters. “The trials and tribulations of dating, don’t we all have a story?” Scoble said. “From beginning to end, you can see interactions between men and women, which is fascinating.” The experience is new for Condra. “I’ve always done shows that are one consistent story, and this is a bunch of different skits,” Condra said. “It’s almost ‘SNL, the Musical,’ that’s what stood out to me. It runs the range of different acting styles.” Noblesville resident Sandy Baetzhold is the musical director. The book and lyrics are by Joe DiPietro and the music is by Jimmy Roberts. The musical played off-Broadway for more than nine years before being released to community theaters. For more, visit carmelplayers.org.

“Love is like wine. To sip is fine, but to empty the bottle is a headache” — Julio Iglesias WINEderlust Looking for a special Valentine bottle? Show your love some love with one of these great options that won’t break the bank. I’ve got three pretties to share: a white, a red and a sparkler. Just because it’s good doesn’t mean it has to be expensive. Cheers! The white is 2014 Hugel Gentil, an Edelzwicker (blend) from Alsace, France. It’s heavy on the Gewurztraminer with smaller amounts of Riesling, Pinot Gris and Muscat. A full-bodied and refreshing wine with a beautiful, perfumey nose. In the glass are crisp fruit flavors with a lean, lemony finish. A great choice with fish and shellfish. This wine is an old favorite of mine that is consistent from year to year. Dry and $15. 2015 Charles Smith Wines “Velvet Devil”
Merlot, $14, is from Washington. A dense red wine that begs for beef dishes or dark chocolate dessert. Expect a mouthful of dark cherries and blackberries, big cedar and sweet tobacco. Velvet Devil offers big flavor in a luxurious, velvety smooth finish. This one goes down fast and easy. This unique sparkler is bone dry and dark red with pretty pink foam. Midici Ermete I Quercioli “Secco” is a Lambrusco from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy and will set you back about $15. This works beautifully with cheesy pasta dishes like ravioli and also is a successful choice with clams, mussels and oysters.

CHS siblings dig all that jazz By Rick Morwick • rick@youarecurrent.com For Carmel siblings Oscar and Joe Cronin, being selected to the All-State Jazz Ensemble is nothing MUSIC new. But the thrill never gets old. “Being a part of the ensemble was a very fun experience for me,” said Oscar, a Carmel High School Oscar Cronin junior. “I got to work with some of the best young musicians from all over the state.” Joe, a CHS freshman, echoed the sentiment. “I was excited,” he said. “It’s a great experience to be working with a lot of other great players.” Oscar and Joe were among 17 Hamilton County student-musicians who auditioned for, and were selected to, either the AllState Jazz Ensemble or the Junior All-State Jazz Ensemble. The ensembles performed at the Jan. 18 Indiana Music Educators Association Convention in Fort Wayne. Oscar, a trombone player, was part of the All-State Jazz Ensemble, which is for grades
10 through 12. He was selected for the Junior All-State Ensemble, for grades 7 through 9, when he was an eighth-grader. Joe, a drummer, made the Junior All-State Ensemble for the second straight year. CHS musician Charlie Harriman, who plays guitar and Noblesville High School students Grace Wiles (trombone) and Sam Eger (piano) also were part of the AllJoe Cronin State Jazz Ensemble. The following local students were on the Junior Ensemble: Conway Zhang (saxophone), Carmel Middle School; Ian Robison (saxophone), Hamilton Heights Middle School; Nate Cook (saxophone), Noblesville High School; Skyler Cole (saxophone), Zionsville Middle School; Addison Coons (lead trumpet), Zionsville Middle School; Connor Meinerding (trumpet), Noblesville High School; Tyler Siversten (lead trombone), Noblesville High School; Jonah McKnight (trombone), Zionsville Middle School; Sean Vitales (trombone), Noblesville High School; Nicholas Ok (piano), Noblesville High School; Andrew Matthews (guitar), Noblesville High School; and Jay Thornbury (bass), Noblesville High School.

Punchbowl Social The Cook’s Salad from Punchbowl Social in downtown Indianapolis is a fresh, unique combination of many vibrant ingredients. (Photo by Anna Skinner)
Commentary by Anna Skinner
my mother’s fried bologna for breakfast. For my main dish, I ordered the Cook’s Salad, a giant bowl of little gem lettuce, bacon, crispy chicken, tomatoes, pickled green beans, creamy avocado, hard-boiled eggs, gruyere cheese, Dixie Caviar (which is actually just a fancy way of saying blackeyed peas) and a shallot-thyme vinaigrette dressing. The salad was fresh, filling and had a unique twist with the combination of ingredients. Suggested pairings: Punchbowl Social has several punch bowls, and if they’re in the restaurant’s name, you know they have to be good. There are three main offerings – The Watermelon Polo Bowl, It’s a Mer-Man’s World and The King’s Cup, all $9. A featured punch, which the bartender will educate you on if you visit, is $8. All contain alcohol and are delicious. For more, visit punchbowlsocial.com.
Address: 120 S. Meridian St., Indianapolis What to get: Cook’s Salad Price: $14 Anna’s take: Punchbowl Social offers more than just extraordinary food and drinks. It features an arcade, a bowling alley, karaoke, games like giant Scrabble and giant Jenga, the famous red cursive “I love you so much” wall and more. Before I even ordered, I was brought a complimentary basket of the most delicious little biscuits and jam. For an appetizer, I started with the Lil’ Fried Bologna and Cheese Sandwiches ($8). I grew up in the country, so taking a bite out of these bologna, tomato, olive tapenade and gruyere sandwiches was like a slightly fancier memory of eating

Blueprint for Improvement: White-hot kitchen remodel in Indianapolis Commentary by Larry Greene
After
Before
Background: Built in 1985, this home is near Eagle Creek Reservoir. The homeowners were looking to modernize their space and streamline their lives.
THE CHALLENGE The homeowners worked with our designers to create a space that felt bigger without knocking down any walls. They also wanted more functional storage space.
THE SOLUTION Our team transformed this ho-hum kitchen into a true centerpiece of the home. 1. The homeowners chose a gorgeous gray for the lower cabinets and white for the upper cabinets. 2. Bulkheads over the cabinets were removed and replaced with taller cabinetry that not only provides more storage, but makes the room seem taller. 3. A quartz countertop was installed, and the tile backsplash was taken all the way to the ceiling to give the illusion of a taller ceiling. 4. Instead of two smaller pantries, the design gave the homeowners one larger, more functional pantry space and a new counter for meal prep. To get started on your own remodeling project, visit us at caseindy.com or stop by one of our three locations. Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/Remodeling. You may email him at lgreene@ caseindy.com. To see more before-and-after pictures of this project, visit caseindy.com/blog.

Anyway, not any way is right Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
ASN Co. Building in The Rocks, Sydney, Australia (Photo by Don Knebel)
From rocks to riches in Sydney Commentary by Don Knebel The Rocks, a fashionable area in Sydney, Australia, was once home to English convicts. Its name comes from the quarries where they hewed rocks. TRAVEL After the American colonies gained independence, England selected eastern Australia, then uninhabited by Europeans, as the new overseas dumping ground for its convicts. On Jan, 26, 1788, its anniversary celebrated as Australia Day, an English fleet brought 850 convicts to the southern shore of what is now Sydney Harbor. The prisoners built their own homes from mud and wood among the nearby sandstone quarries where many were forced to work. After Sydney became a port city, the quarry area, called The Rocks, was home to brothels and bars serving incoming sailors. The area’s reputation took more hits when it was quarantined during the plague of 1900 and when the approach to the Sydney Harbor Bridge sliced through its western side in 1923. By mid-century, Sydney’s city planners proposed leveling all the remaining structures in the dreary slum and
replacing them with high-rises. A protest by residents of The Rocks, some tracing their families’ roots in the area to 1800, led to a 1975 agreement that buildings, including residences, would be preserved and important buildings restored. When cruise ships began docking nearby, restored buildings in The Rocks were transformed into popular tourist destinations. The picturesque ASN Co. Building, once a warehouse, now houses a gallery and retail shops. Other restored buildings became museums and restaurants. The area under the Sydney Harbor Bridge is now a park, with a spectacular view of the Sydney Opera House. Sydney’s sophisticated young people come to The Rocks to take advantage of its now respectable bars and pubs, two claiming to be the oldest in Sydney. The place once to be avoided at almost all costs has become the place not to be missed. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel.com.

DISPATCHES Keeping coffee fresh – For storing coffee and keeping beans on hand, here are some helpful guidelines. 1. Store whole beans, not ground — ground coffee loses flavor quickly 2. Use coffee beans within two weeks for the best flavor 3. Store beans in an airtight container somewhere dark and cool — but not in the refrigerator Source: TheKitchn.com
I think we have a strong, American impulse that tells us to do something despite someone GRAMMAR GUY else’s warning to not do that very thing. I’m sure someone cautioned motorcycle stuntman Evel Knievel not to attempt jumping over a box of 50 rattlesnakes followed by two mountain lions in 1965, but he did it anyway. I suppose it doesn’t matter that he bumped into the edge of the box of snakes when he landed, causing the onlookers to scramble for their lives, because this stunt literally launched Knievel’s career as an entertainer and household name. Now, it’s time to launch into today’s grammar lesson. When should you use “anyway” and when should you use “any way”? And is “anyways” ever acceptable? Let’s jump in. Anyway means “in any case” or “regardless.” Even though many people warned him, Evel Knievel attempted to jump across the canyon anyway. You also can use anyway to signal you’re continuing a story that was interrupted. “So, anyway, I
told the guy, ‘That’s not even my dog!’ Jeff joked.” When it comes to “any way” as two words, the rules are different. The word “any” modifies “way.” Any way means “by any manner” or “by any method.” For example: There wasn’t any way the rattlesnakes were going to go back into the box voluntarily. In order to get my kids to go to sleep at night, I’ll bribe them in any way I can. “Anyways” is a nonstandard, or colloquial, way of saying “anyway.” I wouldn’t advise you to use it in a formal speech (like while delivering a eulogy or a State of the Union address), but it’s not necessarily wrong. Use it only in informal speech or writing. However, as soon as I try to forbid you from using “anyways” in your lexicon, you’re totally going to do it. It’s just like when someone told Evel Knievel he couldn’t jump over 50 cars — he did it anyway.
