The Zionsville Town Council heard a passionate plea from residents of Bloor Lane regarding the design of an upcoming sidecity news walk project during its regular meeting Aug. 3 at Zionsville Town Hall. John Scott spoke to the council on behalf of his Bloor Lane neighbors, many of whom were in attendance, and presented council members with copies of a petition in strong support for one of the two sidewalk plans proposed. Scott said that he received a letter from HWC Engineering outlining two options: the first being a six-foot wide sidewalk directly adjacent to Bloor Lane and a second possibility featuring an eight-foot wide pathway that meanders within the right-of-way. “I’m glad to say the property owners on both Bloor Lane and in Bloor Woods are standing united and enthusiastic in support of option number one,” Scott said. “We’re all very excited and see this as an absolute enhancement to our pristine and serene lane and community and look forward to using it for decades to come.” He also noted that the property owners “stand united in opposition” to the other option, which he said would “meander straight through the
middle of front yards of the residents on the north side.” Lance Lantz, Zionsville superintendent of street/storm water services, said that while those are the two plans under consideration now, there is the option of a hybrid plan. He’s been in contact with the street’s property owners to set up site meetings showing how the area would be affected by each proposal. Comments from council member Tom Schuler drew a round of applause from the Bloor Lane residents in the audience. “One of the reasons you have pathways is to connect dots on a map … Mulberry already connects to Bloor and to the high school there, so it seems like the only purpose a Bloor road pathway would serve would be to serve the people on Bloor road,” Schuler said. “There are alternative connections that already exist. If we’re going to spend money here, I always thought the idea was to make people on Bloor happy.” Lantz had an original internal goal to finalize plans by September or October, with construction beginning sometime next year, but said there’s no hard deadline in place. “We want to keep these moving along, but we don’t want to rush them,” he said. “If it takes longer, it certainly takes longer.”

Coffee with a Cop to debut By Heather Lusk • news@currentzionsville.com Aimed at fostering community trust and relationships, Zionsville’s first Coffee with a Cop will be held in the local McDonald’s new Zen garden from 9 to public safety 11 a.m. on Aug. 19. Residents will have a chance to talk about issues in the community with officers from the Zionsville Police Department in an informal environment while the Boone Village McDonald’s provides free coffee. “We hope that community members will feel comfortable to ask questions, bring concerns or simply get to know our officers,” ZPD Capt. Jeff Morris stated in a press release. “These interactions are the foundation of community partnerships.” The concept for Coffee with a Cop was launched in California in 2011 and has been spreading throughout the country. John Liapis, owner of the Zionsville McDonald’s restaurant, was recently vacationing with his wife when he read about the concept and decided that their newly-reworked garden would be a perfect location to host such an event. Liapis and his wife purchased the McDonald’s last November and have undertaken several renovations to the building since becoming owners. The proximity to many public parks led them to evaluate whether there might be a better use for the exterior. “We want to offer more to our guests than the traditional playground and seating area,” he said.

What was once a play area is now a Zen garden with a water fountain formed from a block of Indiana limestone. During the three month project many elements from the play area were repurposed or reused: concrete tables donated to the Lion’s Club, a lowered gate and rebuilt benches for the new space. “I think it will be a very positive connection to the community between the Zionsville Police Department and the citizens,” Liapis said. “We’re a global business but still connected to the community.”

ZCS prepares for growth By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com
As Zionsville Community Schools’ enrollment continues to grow, officials need to keep track of the trends. Thus the school board voted unanimously at its July session to education renew its contract with Indiana Business Research Center at the IU Kelly School of Business to conduct a demographics study. Mike Shafer, ZCS’s chief financial officer, estimates the IBRC’s projections have averaged in the 90 to 95 percent correct range, with some individual years reaching 96 to 98 percent accuracy, in the district’s 17 years of using the service. The IBRC report will include a 10-year enrollment project, starting with the fall of 2016. The study would be available in late 2015 or early 2016 and will be valuable in strategic planning during the next several years. “Normally every three years or so we commission a new study just because of the changing factors that occur: recessions, changing in zoning rules, housing patterns,” Shafer said. “We understand 10 years is a really long time to project.” The cost of the study is $24,000 and will be paid in three installments over a sixmonth period from the capital projects and transportation funds. The last study IBRC completed was in July 2013. “We never stopped growing, but our growth rate slowed down (following the 2008 recession),” Shafer said. “We saw a couple of years in a row where we saw fewer than 100 new kids. There were times before that we had 200-plus. The current study shows we’ll see growth pick up in the 150 range for a while and maybe go up a little bit more.” As of mid-July, ZCS has enrolled 243 new students, while 139 students have moved out of the district. The net growth of ZCS has averaged more than 200 students in the last several years. The projections help determine needs for staffing, food service, bus service, physical maintenance and major renovations.

Nature center joins network By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com A new move to help all kids get out and enjoy nature has started. The Bicentennial Nature Netparks work is establishing a Bicentennial Children’s Park near Richmond, Ind. and will create a type of ceremonial deed for a school-aged children to “own” a piece of the land and learn more about science and nature through their schools. With the new park, there is an educational component including a curriculum based on land conservation and nature. Teachers can teach this curriculum with the student’s own free land that they received from the Bicentennial Children’s Park. “(The Bicentennial Children’s Park) realizes not every kid in Indiana is able to get out there, so the Nature Center Network was started as a way to offer the same amount of environmental education to kids throughout Indiana,” Mindy Murdock, park naturalist and manager of the Zion Nature Center, said. “So if you don’t think you can ever make it (to the park) because of the distance or financial issues … this way they are making it so there is a nature center within 50 miles of every student that is going to offer the same type of

programming and curriculum.” There are currently 16 nature centers throughout state working on the curriculum to be ready for use by next year. A meeting is scheduled for September to go over the curriculum and finalize everything before 2016. “The curriculum is definitely going to be through the schools. So the teachers can have a list of nature centers offering the same things offered through Bicentennial Nature Network, and do the exact same curriculum without having to go over to Richmond. We can do it in the Zionsville parks or at the nature center, or we can do it at their school,” Murdock said. The curriculum runs for grades K-12.

Council makes appointments, approves code of conduct
By Sam Elliott • news@currentzionsville.com The Zionsville Town Council made appointments to two boards and approved a code of conduct for councilors and commissioners at its Aug. 3 meeting. town news The council made its first appointments to the new Non-Discriminatory Practices Review Committee, with councilors Tom Schuler, Susana Suarez and Mary Alice Baldwin approved to serve alongside Zionsville resident Paula Taylor-Whitfield. “She is an attorney for Eli Lilly and I’ve known her for a Suarez number of years,” said Steve Mundy, council president, who nominated Taylor-Whitfield. “I think she’d make an outstanding addition to this committee.” The committee is rounded out by mayorappointee Bob Goodman. To fill a vacancy on the Parks Board, Suarez
nominated resident John Wollenburg, who was approved by the council. “He lives in Zionsville, has been here since 2006 and he’s the father of three kids,” Suarez said. “He’s an ardent user of the parks system and has some new and exciting ideas for how to make our parks better.” All new board and committee appointees will now be subject to a new code of conduct, which was also approved at Monday’s meeting. Mundy said the code of conduct had been in development for some time. “This is a voluntary code of conduct pledge for council members and then the Mundy second part is a code of conduct for board, commission and committee appointees,” he said. “This is something we discussed some time ago and have crafted over the last few months.” Zionsville’s next regular Town Council meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Sept. 8.

The World War II Memorial opened seven years after Grant Thompson’s grandfather died in 1997. veterans His grandfather, Bill Pace, a Marine who received a Purple Heart for wounds, fought in the Battle of Iwo Jima. “My grandfather couldn’t go so I wanted to get closure and take somebody else,” Thompson said. So Thompson took his wife’s great uncle, Marvin Mason, who fought at the Battle of the Bulge, to the WWII Memorial in Washington, D.C., in 2009. Thompson was so moved and believed other WWII vets should experience it and soon after started Indy Honor Flight. “Now we take them 178 vets at a time so it snowballed into something real big, real quick,” Thompson said. Indy Honor Flight is part of the National
Honor Flight Network. The next Indy Honor Flight is on Sept. 5, which has been filled, and will include several vets from Hamilton County and Zionsville. Thompson said most will be WWII vets on the trip along with 10 to 20 Korean War vets. “We feel a sense of urgency to get this mission. These (WWII vets) average age is 90 so we’re trying everything we can do to get them there quickly as possible while still remaining very safe,” Thompson said. There will be another Indy Honor Flight on Oct. 31 with two more planes. That trip is called the Fireman’s Flight. Thompson said many firefighters and police officers from around the area serve as the majority of the guardians for those flights. The first Indy Honor Flight was in 2012 with 80 veterans. There have been 11 flights so far. For more information or for applications for veterans, visit indyhonorflight.org or call 559-1600.

Pug rescue event set for Aug. 15 By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Mark Bailey is the epitome of a pug lover. When the retired Carmel resident’s beloved pug, Claude, died in January, he saw pets just how much of an impact his pup had in his life and others. “My pug was a legend. My license plate said Claude, that’s how big he was to me,” said Bailey, 63. “I had over 4,500 Facebook friends (because of Claude). Most had pugs or were animal lovers. When he died, (they) sent me over $1,000, a hand-painted portrait of Claude and a granite bench. I donated every bit of the money to the Kentuckiana Pug Rescue.” Bailey, who has two rescue cats, wants to get another pug in the future. In the meantime, Bailey, a member of the Kentuckiana Pug Rescue board, is helping to find homes for other pugs. The group’s 500 Festival of Pugs is set from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Aug. 15 at the Boone County Fairgrounds in Lebanon. The cost is $5 per person and $15 for a family. All breeds are welcome to attend with their owners. “It’s my favorite charity,” said Bailey, who also volunteers at Indiana University North in Carmel. “Every year I give them two sets of three Colts tickets.” The event will include a banana eating

There are so many cute pugs that come,” Bailey said. “It’s my pug fix.” Bailey said the nonprofit spends $175,000 a year on medical expenses and finding pugs home.

I once found a $20 bill
Commentary by Ward Degler
When I was 9 years old I found a $20 bill on the floor in the local dime store. It was a week before Christmas, and I was plain talk trying to find gifts for my mom and dad that wouldn’t cost more than 90 cents. I had started out with a dollar, but Finch’s soda fountain had beckoned to me on the way, so I treated to myself to a double-dip chocolate ice cream cone. Now, however, I was faced with a quandary. I was suddenly rich beyond my wildest dreams, and that was the problem. Everyone in town knew our family circumstances and could say for certain that there was no way I could ever have a $20 bill. After all, a world war was raging just beyond our shores, and if anyone had extra money, they were admonished to “Buy War Bonds!” If I tried to use the 20 to buy something at the dime store, the clerk was sure to ask me where I got it. She might even call my mother. So, I stuffed it in my pocket and spent 29 cents on a packet of sewing needles that included a tiny wire needle threader. I had noticed my mother squinting to thread nee-
dles for some time, and thought the threader would be a perfect gift. Besides, it left me 61 cents to buy something for my dad. Ultimately, I bought him a bottle of aftershave for 49 cents, which, with sales tax and all, left me with 10 cents in change. Back home I sneaked the gifts into my room and hid them under my bed until I could wrap them for Christmas. The 20 I stuffed into the bottom of the tin box that held my marble collection. I figured it would be safe there until I could figure out what to do with it. For some reason I forgot it until Christmas had come and gone, and I accidently spilled the box in the middle of the living room floor in full view of both my mom and dad. After I had painfully explained how I came to have so much money, they pointed out that 20 dollars was probably all the person who lost it had for Christmas shopping. Thus shamed, I laboriously took the 20 and bought a war bond with it. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife and dog.

Village home expected to be first in state to receive top energy-efficiency designation By Heather Lusk • news@currentzionsville.com The walls are 12 inches thick, the windows are triple pane glass and the concrete foundation has eight inches of underslab insulation. What is expected to be Cover story the first Passive House in Indiana is a one-of-a-kind structure for an Indiana environment that can fluctuate more than 100 degrees in temperature in the course of a year. The Passive House designation is a rigorous energy standard that is the pinnacle of home energy efficiency. The house, in Zionsville’s village area among historic and unique homes, would be among 92 in the U.S. to meet this criteria. The house has been a labor of love for the builder and owner, Dan Porzel, and his wife, Ann, who have spent countless hours reading, researching and learning to create this original Indiana structure. “This is the application of a lot of theory,” Ann Porzel said. “We’ve read about it a ton but had never done it.” The house has passed its final hurdle – in mid-June a blower door test showed that the house measured .38 air changes per hour at 50 Pascal building pressure, with 7.0 being “to code” in Indiana. In layman’s terms this pressurizes and depressurizes the home to check for the amount of air leakage, and showed that the house was incredibly airtight. Now the Porzel family is awaiting the final review of paperwork before the official Passive House Institute U.S. designation. These test results have been a relief to Dan Porzel, whose company, Cedar Street Builders, focuses on high performance homes. “We always kind of felt we were doing everything right,” he said. The Passive House movement began in Germany, where temperatures don’t fluctuate as much as in certain areas of the United States. That fluctuation makes it challenging to ensure a constant temperature in the home in the most energy efficient way. To achieve energy efficiency, a key to building a Passive
House is insulation – ensuring that no air comes in or escapes through nooks and crannies. The other key is the indoor ventilation system. The home will be consistently supplied with fresh air while stale air is exhausted. As the incoming air passes the outgoing air through a duct system, the new air is heated in the winter by the stale air leaving the home. This helps reduce the cost of heating the fresh air. This is reversed in the summer, with sunshades providing protection for the south facing windows that help to heat the home in the winter. Porzel estimates that it will cost roughly $140 annually to heat his home and less than $50 a year for cooling. While he estimates that it costs roughly 15 percent more to build a Passive House, the higher building costs are offset by the decreased utility bills in the future. “It’s also where you choose to spend your money,” said Ann Porzel. “Some people spend on cabinets and fixtures, we spent our money on structure.” “The whole thing is built on setting the construction numbers,” said Cara Weber, architect for the building. She emphasized that the sizing of the house is also important, considering the minimum number of square feet needed. “People building today probably don’t realize they can do this,” Dan Porzel said. The architect and builder are neighbors who met while walking children home from school. They soon discovered that their backgrounds and architectural goals of focusing on sustainability were surprisingly similar. Weber had been involved in sustainable building projects in healthcare before leaving to create her own architecture firm, DELV Design. She had been doing LEED projects for a number of years, but this was her first opportunity to be part of a Passive House.
“Our thoughts just kind of matched up,” said Dan Porzel. “Cara just nailed it – she showed us her initial thoughts and we said ‘keep going.’” The high efficiency windows were custom built and imported from Poland. The walls, constructed with 10 inches of foam with plywood on each side with an additional 2.5 inches of foam on top of that, were specifically designed, cut and manufactured off-site. Weber and Porzel would like to continue to build these types of homes. “We’ll just continue to try to get the word out and letting people know it’s possible,” said Dan Porzel, whose company has heard some interest from homeowners. “Let’s build things better, let’s make them sustainable,” said Weber. “We hope it incites good conversations.”

Terry Lee: Ranked among the best By Navar Watson • news@currentzionsville.com Car dealership owner Terry Lee always has a plan, and he always sticks to it. Now, he’s one of the most sucAchievement cessful businessmen in Indiana. For the third year, Terry Lee Honda in Avon has ranked in the Top 100 car dealerships to work for out of 17,000 in the United States, according to Automotive News. And he anticipates his new Noblesville business, Terry Lee Hyundai, will make the list next year. He attributed his Automotive News Awards to the family-like culture he strives to portray. “We talk about treating people like family. … It’s kind of a common thing that people hear, but it’s again practicing what you preach,” he said. “It’s not a marketing slogan. It’s really a culture.” Terry Lee Hyundai in Noblesville, which opened in March, has already become the number one Hyundai dealership in the state. The $8 million facility had a planning potential to sell 400 cars per year, and Lee estimates selling from 800 to 1,000 this year. What separates Lee’s dealerships from others, however, is not price or vehicle quality. Instead, it’s the focus on customer satisfaction, a lesson he learned from mentor and late Cadillac dealer, Freda Lockhart. “I think today people love to buy, but they

As coach of the Zionsville Swim Club, Eric Meyer saw a huge need for another training grounds for perspective club exercise members. So Meyer and co-owner Jim Sharp, the Lafayette Jeff High School swimming coach, opened Indy Swim Studio, 7031 Mayflower Park Dr., Suite C, Zionsville, in late June 2014. “One of the reasons we opened it is we didn’t see the results we like from other swim lesson programs in feeding the swim club,” said Meyer, who lives in Whitestown with his wife and two daughters. “We were looking for a way to give kids the skills they need to be competitive swimmers if that is something they choose.” Meyer, who has been Zionsville Swim Club coach for five years, said the studio is getting good response. “We’ve had more than 200 clients come through for some of our various programs,” Meyer said. “We’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback that everyone feels they are getting their value for what we’re doing. One thing that makes us stand out is all of our coaches are professional coaches.” The studio offers beginner lessons for ages

3 and older. The learn-to-swim program is up to age 12, but private lessons can be arranged for older beginners. “We actually had a 68-year-old gentleman who learned to swim in our facility,” Meyer said. “He wanted to surprise his grandkids.” The studio offers advance classes as well. “They’re actually working on the technique and skills needed to have all four competitive strokes,” Meyer said. Meyer said the clients are drawn from all over the Indianapolis area, but mostly from Zionsville, Carmel and the north side of Indianapolis. “We’re just looking to see some growth and get some people to learn to swim better,” Meyer said.

Diagnosis? Aging
Hers to lose
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
As the polling for presidential candidates on both sides of the aisle continues, it’s interesting, but not alarming, to note the slippage Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) is experiencing in certain sectors. For instance, one poll last week had her in a “statistical tie” with Bernie Sanders (D-Vt.), but that was for New Hampshire, the state bordering Sanders’ home turf; she won New Hampshire in 2008. Clinton’s national lead amongst Democrats was shown to be shrinking, but we see that as a function of the field being crowded (although not as irresponsibly congested as the Republicans’ freak show), and her lead was 51-22 over Sanders, whereas she was at 59 percent the week prior. Most interesting, is that she is losing her grip on the female voter, apparently over a lack of trustworthiness. The Wall Street Journal reported last week that 53 percent of white women have a negative opinion of Clinton. Consider this, too: If Vice President Joe Biden announces and gains President Barack Obama’s endorsement, and his fundraising and organizational machine, he would be a formidable candidate, as we see it. That’s what we believe Obama ultimately wants, an endorsement of his time in the White House, and it would amount to just that. Although it won’t be a cakewalk by any stretch, we still see Clinton superseding all the opponents. And at that point, we shall haul out our Hillary Voodoo Doll. ••• Nearly six dozen watchdog agencies are telling Congress to rise up against Obama’s camp clamping down on access to government records. The remonstrators claim the docs are vital for their investigations into waste, fraud and abuse. Understand this: There is yet another executive order coming.

Hand over the keys Commentary by Terry Anker As we zoom past middle-age, our adaptability to new technologies tends to wane. In my lifetime, music formats have transformed from 45 RPM records bought at the 5 & Dime to 8-tracks to cassettes to compact disks to digital files (like MP3’s, WAV’s, and more formats than the uninitiated can count) and finally, to internet streaming to God only knows what is next. Many of us decide to get off the technology train entirely and come full-circle back to vinyl. Most can boast a minimal proficiency in every format. In my own home, one might come across an 8-track tape by the 70s rock band Boston, however, it is more than a feeling that upgrading all of these albums once again is considerably less than appealing. While most of us eventually adapt, one wonders what, if anything, has been lost along the way. In our own immediate family, we tend to buy cars and keep them for a decade or
more. We maintain them along the way but work to get every dollar out of the asset. So, technology can make quite a jump from purchase to purchase. When renting a car on a business trip this month, the attendant at the agency was wholly amused by my working to operate the keyless-start. How can an automobile be an automobile without a key? Have we returned to the Model T with no lock and a crank start? Maybe. But, is the key really required? Or, has it become a talisman wherein its magic springs only from our imagined need of it? Keyless may be a better way. One wonders where else we should hand over the keys. So much of life is driven by our need for the familiar. This resistance may prevent our discovery of a better, freer life. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentzionsville.com.

I’ve just returned from three annual check-ups for various body parts that should have been as simple as “Hey! You look great! Anything new? Okay, see ya humor next year.” But alas, not one went as planned. The general consensus seems to be that I’m getting old, and there’s not a darn thing I (or they) can do about it. Boo! First up, the endocrinologist, who monitors my stupid malfunctioning thyroid gland. Normally we have a nice chat, catch up on our kids, and then she sends in her henchman to draw my blood. But this year, because I offhandedly mentioned I’ve been simultaneously having hot flashes and gaining weight, two conflicting symptoms in the world of glandular disease, she launched into all the wonderful experiences that await me as menopause approaches. Noooo! I don’t want to keep my house set at 59 degrees year round to combat night sweats, nor do I care to pack on midsection pounds despite a diet of iceberg lettuce. She couldn’t even offer advice. “Oh it’s gonna happen,” was her comment. Good times. Straight from her I headed over to the breast center for the dreaded mammogram. And lucky for me, they’d purchased new machines, which twist and squeeze even more intensely than the old ones. Afterwards, I caught a glimpse of my topless self in the dressing room mirror: I looked like I’d been hit multiple times with a two-by-four. Bright red areas marred my pale, ginger-day-walker skin, indicating the exact places where I’d been mauled. Turns out, big girls do cry! Finally, I saw the dermatologist to have her check a spot that keeps returning despite two uncomfortable freezes with liquid nitrogen. Her best guess? Either pre or actual cancer. Not melanoma, she assured me, but she did go ahead and biopsy it. I’m currently awaiting the pathology report while sporting two stitches and a fat, bruised bottom lip. (But you should see the other guy!) Seriously though, this aging process is rough, and I still have the ob/gyn and dentist on the calendar. I’m really starting to hate annual check-ups! Peace out.

Next stop: Bathroom? Commentary by Dick Wolfsie “Mary Ellen, where do we keep the soup spoons? Did you move the instant coffee? Where are the salad bowls?” humor I have been asking my wife this kind of stuff for 25 years. Now that we’ve had the kitchen renovated, I have more questions: “What’s a convection oven? Where did they hide the dishwasher? Where can I tape my “New Yorker” cartoons?” So that the space in our new refrigerator is maximized, Mary Ellen explained the three food groups. “Dick, there are items we both eat like milk and cheese, and there are foods only I enjoy like broccoli and spinach. Then, there is stuff only you like: salami, Bud Lite, hot salsa, leftover KFC, and the elephant ears from the State Fair you froze last summer. The first two food groups go in the new fridge; the rest goes into our old unit.” (now banished to the basement). “I love my new kitchen,” she said to me last night. “Wait a second – you don’t call it your house. Why is it your kitchen?” “Well, I worked with the designers all spring while you played golf, and this week, without
your help, I put everything back in the new cabinets. And I’ll be doing all the cooking for the rest of our lives while you are downstairs playing Words with Friends.” “Okay, so it’s your kitchen. What can I do to help?” “Please don’t print little labels that say Knives, Cereal or Can Opener, and stick them on the new cabinet doors. And if a drawer seems stuck, do not pry it open with a hammer. It’s called a false door front. And please read the directions for all the new appliances. To heat last night’s frozen pizza, you hit the 30-second button 16 times.” Next we are going to renovate my bathroom. It’s good-bye to my stained bathtub and my disgusting shower curtain. But they will look awesome in the basement storeroom next to the fridge. (Go to www.currentzionsville.com to read a full version of this column)

Indian dancer performs Aug. 15 news@currentzionsville.com
On Aug. 15, Rani Rejimon and Rejimon Varghese will host the Bharathanatyam Arangetram of their daughter, Jwala Rejimon. Bharathanatyam is a form of Indian classical dance culture that originated in the temples of Tamil Nadu. “This is her dance graduation. It’s classical Indian dance she’s been learning for about 10 years. It’s kind of a graduation but in India we call it Arangetram. This will be her grand performance. Most people do it to learn the Indian culture, values, dance forms and stories. Some people don’t do it because it’s an expensive venture so they do it in a smaller way but she has a real passion for it,” said Rejimon Varghese. The event will be held at the Zionsville Performing Arts Center beginning with a meet and greet at 4 p.m. The performance will begin at 5 p.m. followed by dinner at 8 p.m. The family is expecting around 400 guests to attend with some traveling from India for the occasion. “We have musicians coming from India. We have a singer, a violinist, a flutist and a mridangist. Indian Carnatic music field Sri.V V Sundaram is the chief guest and the pioneer Bharatanatyam dance guru of USA Smt.Hema Rajagopalan is the guest of honor for the occasion. We also have Sri. K P Singh, distinguished artist as the guest of honor for the event,” said Rejimon Varghese. The performance itself lasts about two hours. “She’ll have about nine different dances in the performance. One dance is 46 minutes. She will continuously dance for the 46 minutes. It’s testing her endurance, expressions and techniques,” said Rejimon Varghese. Guests should RSVP. Although the event is free to attend, proceeds will go to Indiana Malayalee Association, Tamil Sangam of Central Indiana, Hindu Temple of Central Indiana and NRIscholarships.org.

CIAF to feature local artists Commentary by the committee for the Carmel International Arts Festival The 18th Annual Carmel Entertainment always provides festival-goers with beautifully crafted art and this year is better than ever. There will be many returning artists but more than 60 festival of our artists are new. Cliff Matyszczyk and his 3-D metal sculptures are created by cutting, bending, welding and chiseling steel, copper and stone. He started out as a welder/steelworker and as an artist began with functional pieces before moving into contemporary art. Carol Bell resides in Noblesville and is popular artist who specializes in Ikebana Flower Vases, Tea Love Pocket Mugs, Horse Hair Pottery and Frames Quilts. Her work is nature inspired, functional, and is created to joy to everyday life. David Frohbeiter is a popular 2D Artist that does historically inaccurate illustrations, hand drawn with pencil, pen and ink, and colored pencils.

A link: Vision and learning Commentary by Tammy Wittmann It’s August and every parent in Indiana is scrambling to make sure their child is ready to head back to school. eye care Book bags. Shoes. Notebooks. Band practice. Football practice. The list goes on and on. But on the top of that list should be EYE EXAM. Did you know that vision is the number one sense that affects learning and development? Does your child not particularly like to read? Do they do great on the first few math problems and fizzle out at the end of the assignment? Do they have a hard time focusing for a long period of time? Has your child been labeled as having a learning problem? If you answer “yes” to any of these questions your child may have a vision problem. Did you know that your child only gets their vision screening at school in kindergarten, fifth grade and eighth grade? A lot changes between kindergarten and fifth grade. And a screening is just a screening. There are many vision issues that are not found by reading an eye chart. There are many other issues that need to be tested in a comprehensive eye exam with an eye doc-

tor that tests for near and binocular vision problems. It’s important when making the appointment for your child that you ask if your doctor specifically tests for these. Not all do. Vision not only impacts learning development, but affects social, physical and emotional development as well. Once these vision problems are corrected, the doors are opened for your child to be the best they can be. Make sure your child is ready for school. Schedule their back to school eye exam before school starts. Your child will thank you later. Dr. Tammy Wittmann, O.D., practices at Wittmann 20/20 Family Eye Center at 2792 E. 146th St., Carmel.

Before you go any ‘further’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Jordan, a few years ago Ford Motor Co. used the tagline ‘Go Further.’ Would you please explain the grammar guy correct use of ‘further’ vs. ‘farther?’ I would prefer to rely on the Grammar Guy rather than Corporate America for grammatical guidance. After all, the business world gave us ‘Lands’ End,’ ‘Eat Fresh’ and ‘Rethink Possible.’ Thank you for furthering the cause of good grammar.” – (Nancy Reichmann, Westfield) Answer: Hi Nancy … to be fair, the business world also gave us Dodge Ram, which is a pretty fun little oxymoron to see roaming around town. More to your point: There can be some ambiguity between whether “further” or “farther” is the correct choice, and this happens to be one of those occasions. Let’s talk about why. Both “further” and “farther” have historically been used as the comparative form of “far,”
meaning “at, to or by a greater distance.” The Oxford Dictionaries will tell you “further” and “farther” may be used interchangeably in that meaning, as they have been for hundreds of years. “Further” has more uses, though. Unlike “farther,” which is limited to descriptions of actual distances, “further” is often used metaphorically or abstractly (ex. “to further a career”). Because of this, many grammar guides – I include myself among them – suggest simplifying the situation by using “farther” in all contexts describing actual, physical distances, and “further” only for abstract or metaphorical uses. Otherwise you could end up like Ford Motor Co., where my response to their slogan is, “Go further what?” Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing. To ask Jordan a grammar question, write him at rjfische@ gmail.com.

Chlorine in Your Water: Is it Causing Problems in Your Home? For more than 100 years, chlorine has been added to public water supplies as a disinfectant to prevent pathogens, such as bacteria, viruses and protozoans, from growing. Chlorine has proven to be extremely effective in killing most microorganisms that grow in water supply reservoirs, on the walls of water mains and in storage tanks. Without chlorination (or some other form of water disinfection treatment), millions of people would be exposed to diseases and infections, such as cholera, salmonella, dysentery and others. Today, the U. S. has one of the safest water supplies in the world. Although there are several methods available that can help eliminate disease-causing microorganisms in water, chlorination is the most commonly used. Unfortunately, chlorine in our water supply can have a variety of unpleasant effects: • Tastes and odors • Strips protective oils from skin and hair • Excess drying and wrinkling of skin • Deteriorates rubber seals in water-using appliances • Causes dry, brittle hair and fades colored hair • Fades clothes So how can you minimize your exposure to the chlorine? Kinetico has a solution. For more than 40 years, the water experts at Kinetico have engineered products to bring families in central Indiana the very best water. The Kinetico Whole-Home Dechlorinator runs on the kinetic energy from the flow of your water, rather than electricity, and it has no timers or computers to set, adjust or repair. The system runs consistently and continuously, and can provide you with peace of mind that the water flowing through your pipes and out all of your taps is free from the effects of chlorine. The Dechlorinator is ideal for use with other water treatment products, such as water softeners. Contact Kinetico today to learn more about how a Dechlorinator can be a part of your whole-home water treatment solution. Visit www.kineticoindy.com/free or call 855-353-3733. advertorial

Amsterdam is well known for its canals, its museums and its casual tolerance of certain activities other cities find unactravel ceptable. It is also known as the bicycle capital of the world. Amsterdam’s 780,000 residents, who enjoy one of the world’s highest standards of living, own about a million bicycles but only 250,000 automobiles. To encourage bike riding, the city has provided 250 miles of dedicated bicycle paths and 250,000 racks. High costs of automobile parking, level terrain and a Dutch desire to be fit seal the deal. Every day, 60 percent of Amsterdammers, no matter what the weather or their social status, ride their bicycles to work, to their children’s schools, to the market or just for fun. More people get around Amsterdam by bicycle than by car. In the city center, bicycles constitute 48 percent of all traffic. For a nominal fee, a three-story bicycle garage (“flat”) on the west side of Amsterdam’s central train station provides guarded spaces for 2,500 bikes. Riders unable to find more secure locations
lock their bikes to whatever objects they can find, with less than optimal results. Amsterdam thieves steal about 50,000 bicycles every year. Because another one, probably itself stolen, can be purchased for about $40, few victims report stolen bicycles and less than half the people whose bikes have been recovered bother to reclaim them. Locals jokingly liken the process of losing and obtaining stolen bicycles to an exchange. The widespread use and theft of bicycles leads to an unusual kind of water pollution. About 40 bicycles a day are tossed into Amsterdam’s 60 miles of canals. While amused tourists watch, two full-time city employees fish them out using a large claw mounted on a barge. The next time you are in Amsterdam, consider renting a bike. You will feel right at home. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel.com.

Project of the decade highlight: Lanais
Commentary by Randy Sorrell
In a humble effort to continue celebrating our “PROJECT OF THE DECADE” we recently previewed, let’s exoutdoor living plore the individual components more in depth, starting with the lanais. SCREENS? We design / build considerably more openair porches (lanais) than we do screen porches or sunrooms. The conversation evolves from client to client. Some are horrified at the thought of mosquitos and flies buzzing around their outdoor room, but many tolerate them or simply don’t have an insect problem. Steve and Courtenay Wagner’s beautiful home, and project of the year, is gracefully nestled in an elegant, leafy neighborhood that merges into a heavily wooded area. Yet insects curiously aren’t an issue. The lanais needed to communicate smartly with the rest of the seven outdoor living spaces. Yes … seven fabulous spaces! A few are small, intimate escapes and others are centered around the art of entertaining … surrounding the pool, positioned in front of the fireplace or growing from the grill station as festivities and family joy spreads.

We chose premium cedar as the primary structural lanais components with a few flairs to pull the details from the home into the lanais. The ceiling fan helps with airflow and is a contributor to discouraging flying insects from hanging around. Because of the woods canopy, shade wasn’t a driver in the structure, simply a resounding place to gather. And this place has it all. TV. BAR-COUNTER. TAP. I can only imagine how powerful, yet peaceful, it must be to celebrate with family and friends while the Colts game screams on the
outdoor TV. The formal brick fireplace situated a comfortable distance away, crackles under the loud cheers from another Luck touchdown as a local craft beer flows from the bar station tap. Another Colts win! That’s why this is our “PROJECT OF THE DECADE.” Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel home improvement firm.

Which type of hardwood is right for your home? For a versatile and natural look that never goes out of style, interiors many homeowners choose to install hardwood flooring. Unlike other flooring trends that come and go, hardwood flooring has remained in style for more than 200 years with no signs that tastes will change anytime soon. Today, homeowners have more hardwood options to choose from than ever before. With designs ranging from rustic to retro to contemporary, there is a style of hardwood floors to fit any home. Although there are countless wood finishes, hardwood planks can be divided into two main categories: solid and engineered. Solid hardwood is made from pure, solid wood planks. This method of constructing hardwood floors is the original way hardwood has been installed in homes for hundreds of years. The main advantage of solid hardwood flooring is the fact that it can be repaired multiple times. Scratches, discoloration or other signs of wear and tear can disappear through a sanding and refinishing process. This increases the lifespan of your flooring dramatically.
Hundreds of types of hardwood looks are available, but which is best for you? (Submitted photo)
The other way of manufacturing planks is called engineered hardwood. Engineered hardwood is made from pressed plywood that uses a thin wood veneer as the top layer. The biggest difference between the two categories is stability, which results in the ability to get wider and longer board planks, which is all the rage right now. It won’t contract and expand as much as traditional hardwood. If you are trying to decide whether to install solid hardwood or engineered, you’ll want to survey and inspect the room where you are considering new floors. It’s important to note that hardwood is susceptible to moisture and
extreme temperatures. Choosing the right hardwood for your home is a big decision. The right hardwood style can subtly tie all the other elements of your room décor together. Select carefully; a great hardwood floor can last a lifetime and beyond.
