Graduate profile: Tylor Grandidier

By Desiree Williams news@currentinfishers.com

Tyler Grandidier recently participated in the Disney College Program. (Submitted photo)

Tylor Grandidier graduated from Fishers High School in 2013. Grandidier, 23, attends Ivy Tech and plans to enEDUCATION roll at IUPUI and graduate in 2019.

Q: What was your favorite subject in high school?

A: I love history classes. The big thing about history that I love is that whenever you really look at it, history really does repeat itself. So, it’s crazy to see how much things have really changed, but at the same time kind of go back to where we’ve been.

Q: Do you remember your most influential high school class or teacher?

A: The most influential high school class I took was sports marketing. I would probably say that Mr. Krull was the teacher that really helped me throughout high school.

I had him every year of high school, freshman to senior year.

Q: What do you miss about high school?

A: I would say the thing I miss the most was all the random banter we would all do with each other in the hallways and just when we saw each other out of school, even if it was just for 30 seconds. I miss some of the people that you graduate with, like the friends that you had that aren’t really your friends, but you suffered through classes with everyone. I miss the closeness aspect of, ‘We are all here so we may as well enjoy it while we can.’

Q: Can you tell me about your college experience?

A: I started out at Defiance College in Ohio.

I was a (NCAA) Division III lacrosse player. I went to this super-small school with only 900 kids at it. I decided that wasn’t where I wanted to be, and I needed to focus more on my academics, so I went to IU. I was there for a full year. That really wasn’t my place, either. I wasn’t focused on school as well there. Currently, I’m going to Ivy Tech with the intent to finish up my degree at IUPUI with a sports marketing and management major and a minor in business administration.

Q: What is your dream job?

A: Currently, my dream job would be to work for a sports broadcasting company, like ESPN or Fox Sports, to really improve advertising and marketing. If not, I would love to work for a lacrosse team, whether it be professional or not, just so I can get the game out there a little bit more and do what I can to show that it’s really a thing and that it’s actually pretty cool.

Q: What have you been up to recently?

A: I just got back from Disney World. I did the Disney College Program. I was there from August to January. I went down there and did my internship and worked and lived the dream of every kid, pretty much. Other than that, when I’m home I coach over at Fishers High School. I’m a JV lacrosse coach.

Q: Do you have any advice for people going into college?

A: Without sounding as cliché as possible, really just enjoy it. As somebody who is 23 now, it really does fly amazingly fast.

Love Fishers opens for second year

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com For the second year, the City of Fishers is using February as a time for ESSAY residents of all ages to submit essays on reasons they love Fishers.

Assistant Director of Public Relations Casey Cawthon said some of the best feedback comes from students. The city is working with Hamilton Southeastern Schools to encourage students to write their essays during class time.

“Some of the coolest feedback we hear is from students. The questions they ask and things they share enjoy doing is really rewarding,” Cawthon said. “(Love Fishers) is really instilling community pride. Anybody is welcome to submit stories about why they love Fishers, like nonprofits, businesses, employees, residents, all ages.”

Submissions are open through Feb. 28.

There is no word limit.

EXHIBITS Arts council looks to expand art offerings at city hall

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Fishers Arts Council is creating a more organized exhibit and better ways for residents to view art with this year’s Art in City Hall project.

Art in City Hall is housed at Fishers City Hall, 1 Municipal Dr. Tom Rich, FAC member and Art in City Hall committee chairperson, said the exhibit has featured displays in the past, but this is the first time the council has employed a themed approach.

“I’ve looked at what they’ve done, and the city really likes to do this, but my concept was, ‘Why don’t we market the whole thing as a season?’” Rich said. “You build an expectation in the community, so they know every month or certain period of time, there’s going to be a new exhibit.”

Rich organized 10 exhibits throughout the year, each with a reception and closing date.

In addition to crafting a more intentional approach, Rich wants art in Fishers to have a place.

“When you think of art in Fishers, most people have a question mark rather than a statement,” he said. “Since we don’t have a venue, we will take the city hall lobby and make that a venue for artists.”

Rich said Nickel Plate Arts, based in Noblesville, does much of the heavy lifting by setting up exhibits and finding artists’ work to display.

FAC is still searching for artists for its Bountiful Harvest display from September to October, the Life on the Prairie display in August and the Winter Wonderland display from November to December. There is no cost to the artists, who can sell their work at the exhibits.

Jacque Hammond, a Fishers artist, has displayed her work in Art in City Hall multiple times. Most recently, her medium was chalk pastels on torn paper. Her work was displayed in November and December 2017.

“I’ve shown there a couple of times at city hall with different pieces of art for different

themes they wanted to feature,” she said. “I think it’s a real honor. I would definitely apply (again) if I had some artwork that went along with the theme they are trying to promote. I think it’s important to support (local) art.”

Depending on the exhibit, 60 to 80 pieces may be displayed on both floors of city hall. Art in City Hall consists of multiple mediums, such as quilts, photos, textiles, among others. Displays are not limited to Fishers artists.

“We are trying to really make it more than it’s ever been in the past. I just want art from anywhere and anybody,” Rich said. “The thing Fishers Arts Council really is trying to do is to be an advocate and work to bring art to Fishers and make the artists have a place to display their work. There are a lot of plans outside Art in City Hall.”

Those were the (exhausting) days

OBSERVATION

Emulate the good

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker None of us are indispensable. Sure, we may contribute. We might even add value in a way that is uniquely our own. But, is it fair to imagine that we fill a role so incontrovertibly without compare that no other human (or machine) might be able to take our place? They would never be us – we are all precious individuals, no doubt; yet, could they fill our shoes differently?

Still, once in a while, there is a singular person who challenges this certainty. Hamilton County Superior Court Judge Steve Nation may be such a human. Even though he has served with distinction for 24 years, acting as a leader to his peers throughout our state, this does not comment on his professional accomplishment and distinction. Instead, it notes that Judge Nation takes a far broader view of community.

From the bench of authority, he dispensed justice under the law. Still, as he shed the black robes of the jurist, he picked up the work of preventing the conditions that kept him fully employed in his day job.

He lent his considerable experience to the intractable problems of domestic violence, senior abuse, veterans’ reintegration, traffic safety, homelessness, education and juvenile justice. As much as he educates those at his side on these scads of nonprofit boards and commissions about the rules and peccadillos of law, he learns from those on the frontline about the root of criminal activity and the impact on its victims.

Although none of us is truly without replacement, some of us are worthy of emulation. Others are likely to step up, each in their own way, and we are lucky to have them. If we don’t see them, then be them.

We have gone digital – sort of Commentary by Melkote Ramaswamy For a long time, we lived in an analog world. The world is now OPINION changing to digital.

In simple terms, analog implies continuous while digital stands for discrete or in steps.

For a long time, analog watches with moving hands were the most popular and perhaps the norm. Along came digital with the appeal and convenience of easy and instant readout, not having to figure out where the clock hands are.

Some watchmakers tried to create the best of both worlds by combining analog and digital. The artistic nature of analog watches seems to give them a distinct edge. As a matter of fact, if you were to look at the selection of watches on display in a department store, one is amazed at the preponderance of analog

watches – it is considered a piece of jewelry.

Analog is where you have dials and knobs and digital is when you see switches. Our house is sort of hybrid.

Our television set is digital along with remote. So, too, is our microwave.

You might still see some microwaves in motel rooms which still have a knob for time setting and having a ring instead of a beep. Our weighing machine is digital but not all of our clocks. We still have analog clocks. These serve two purposes: They brighten the place as a wall decoration, but more importantly we can depend on them in case of power failure.

Melkote Ramaswamy, a Westfield resident, is a physicist, writer, speaker and author of “An Immigrant celebrates America” (University of Indianapolis Press, 2007.)

I was stalking Facebook the other day and came across a friend’s photograph showing her newborn twins HUMOR and two older children sprawled on the carpet. Her post read, “I just went to the grocery with all four by myself!” And I thought, “You go, girl!” It took me back to my own early days of parenting when successful momming meant I got everyone out of the house at least once and returned home with the same number of children with which I left.

Inevitably, though, and usually when I was in Meijer, some old, stranger lady would approach and say, “These are the best days of your life, honey. Enjoy them!”

My internal response? “Are you kidding me, lady? Please, God, tell me you are kidding!” Those days were long, hard and often horribly lonely. The burden of keeping little ones alive and occupied for 12 to 15 hours was enormous, and when blessed naptime was disrupted, I would nearly lose my mind, or what was left of it after playing Thomas Train for the entire morning. I longed for adult interaction, workplace stimulation, and by five p.m., a goblet of Pinot. I literally could not wait for the moment when I could ship my angels off to school and return to normal, sane adulthood.

The moral of my stumble down Memory Lane is twofold. For new parents struggling with infants/toddlers/preschoolers, hang tough. The silver lining is around the corner (or wherever your elementary school is located!). Second, if you see a mom in dairy with a rug-rat-laden cart and simply must speak, offer words of condolences or assistance. Or a bottle of scotch.

Peace out.

An appraisal of house cleaning Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

YOUR FULL-SERVICE LEGAL TEAM 317.576.8580 317.576.8580

Mary Ellen was frantic. We were expecting a special guest, and I had never seen her so meticulous about tidyHUMOR ing the house — not counting, of course, the days before Nettie, our housekeeper, comes.

Nettie had been here to clean two days earlier, and when she heard that our important visitor wasn’t due for almost 72 hours, she asked Mary Ellen: “Is Dick going to a hotel for three days?”

The two of them had a good time trading stories about my messiness.

“How does he get so much toothpaste on his bathroom mirror?” Nettie asked.

“Or potato chips under his pillow?” asked Mary Ellen, doubled over in pain, laughing.

For three days, I was not allowed to cook anything or walk in the house with my shoes on. And I still had no idea who was coming.

“I need to decide what kind of songs to play while Brad is here,” Mary Ellen commented. Then she commanded our Amazon Echo: “Alexa, play music to make the house look expensive.”

Aha! So it was Brad, our real estate agent. He was coming to assess the value

of our home.

“Now, when Brad arrives, do not refer to downstairs as the basement or cellar.

Please call it our lower level,” Mary Ellen instructed. “And we need an electrician. We have to push the switch down to turn the hall lights on. Who would want to live in a house like that?”

Mary Ellen asked me to remove some of the awards from my office walls.

“But I’m pretty proud of those honors.”

“OK, you can keep a few up, but the one that says, ‘Class Clown, Class of ’65,’ needs to go.”

As Brad finished viewing our rooms, he peered out the bay window into our backyard, where an entire family of deer appeared. He snapped a picture, knowing this would be a great selling point for wildlife lovers.

Could my wife possibly have arranged such an idyllic scene? I knew she was good, but who knew she was that good?

Warm up to these cold-weather tips

DISPATCHES

Commentary by Dr. Reeta Bhargava

Winter’s wind-chill factors can wreak havoc not only on our comfort, but also on our health. Here are some common sense, and unexpected, tips.

YOUR HEALTH Beyond clothes YourMetabolism plays a large part in your body’s ability to keep warm.

Avoid alcohol. Alcohol relaxes you to the point that it prevents your body from shivering, and shivering helps your body warm up naturally.

Avoid too much caffeine. In moderation, caffeine can raise your metabolism, but too much can actually short-circuit your metabolism, bringing your body temperature down.

Ginger is known to increase core temperature. Cayenne and other peppers are known to increase heart rate, which excites nerve endings. But don’t overdo it. A pinch here or there is all you need.

Complex carbohydrates are key. Unlike simple carbs that break down quickly, giving you a short spike of energy, complex carbs break down slowly. This gives you the boost that can keep your body warm throughout the day. Choose brown rice over white, whole grain breads and oatmeal or multigrain cereal for breakfast.

Most importantly, stay hydrated. We hear this message a lot during the dog days of summer, but it’s just as important in winter. Drinking seven to eight glasses of plain water per day helps your metabolism function properly. On that note, hydration can also help guard against dry skin that could be more susceptible to frostbite. Consider using moisturizing soaps and plant-based body lotions (which absorb over a longer amount of time, as opposed to water-based), especially on exposed areas such as fingers and nose.

Wrapping it up The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has more detailed information on how to protect yourself in cold weather.

Check out cdc.gov/disasters/winter/staysafe/index.html, or contact your primary care provider if you have questions.

Mobile blood drives have been impacted by the frigid temperatures and donors are urged to donate at one of six donor centers around the state.

Unhealthy fragrance – Many scented products contain fragrances that are composed of dozens of synthetic chemicals.

Nearly 95 percent of those chemicals are petroleum-based, cancer-causing toxins. When looking at scented products, go for those with essential oils or natural botanical ingredients rather than traditional fragrance compounds.

Cold remedy – Are you a fan of natural methods of healing as opposed to medication? Try taking elderberry syrup, which is a natural immune system-booster and a great cold remedy. You can take a teaspoon of syrup every morning, add a few drops of elderberry extract to water or juice, or drink elderberry tea. The syrup, extract and teas can be found at health food stores.

Source: LifeHack.org Is it strep throat? – A lot of illnesses are going around right now, especially strep throat. How do you know if your child has strep or just a cold? Typically, strep throat will present with sore throat, fever and swollen tonsils. It does not usually cause a cough or runny nose. So, if a sore throat is accompanied by cough or runny nose, it’s probably just a cold.

‘Jersey Boys’ cast members form dream roles

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com When Christian Hoff took the role in “Jersey Boys” he had no idea where it would lead.

THEATER Hoff won a 2006 Tony Award as best featured actor in a musical for his portrayal of Tommy DeVito, and three other original Broadway cast members, Daniel Reichard, J. Robert Spencer and Michael Longoria, formed a musical group, The Midtown Men, who travel worldwide to perform. “Jersey Boys” is the story of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

“This is a dream realized that we didn’t know we had,” Hoff said. “This is a result of four unique, individual talents focused on the old-school, traditional format. We didn’t go to a label first. We didn’t start recording. We said let’s go out and be on the road and let’s develop our material and our rapport with the audience as individuals and as a group off the stage.”

The Midtown Men will make their first appearance at The Palladium in Carmel at 8 p.m. Feb. 23.

“Our claim to fame is the Four Seasons music, and that’s really what got us in the mood, if you will, for making a four-part

sound be the centerpiece to our music,” Hoff said. “We took that approach, starting backstage, off the stage and behind the scenes, doing what we did with the Four Seasons music when we found that sound to other artists.”

Hoff, 49, said the group plays songs by the Beatles, Beach Boys and Motown groups.

“We’re having a blast exploring the decade of the ‘60s in a very unique way and a very present, relevant way,” Hoff said.

“People really love this music. It’s part nostalgia and part redefining, reimagining, rediscovering. We pay homage to the roots of this music as fans. We’re trained to bring to life someone’s music. That’s what we did with Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons on Broadway with tremendous success.”

Now, instead of recreating a sound, they can put their own touches on the music.

“Part of our success and our longevity is this music is relatable for all ages,” Hoff said. “It’s still cool.”

The Midtown Men started in 2010.

“We didn’t know if it was going to be a year, a decade or a lifetime,” Hoff said.

The group has done nearly 800 shows

across the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia.

“We’ve kind of rolled with the punches, and it’s continued to grow,” Hoff said.

“Our goal is to carve out a new medium, where is that four actors from Broadway can put together a band and self-produce a show and learn how the business actually works. We went from portraying this on Broadway to being it, producers, guys that have to go on the road and to think about ticket sales, getting butts in seats, promotions, lawyers and contracts.”

Hoff said the four performers are trying to find time to still express themselves as individual artists.

“But it has taken our full attention.

Building it was a big undertaking,” Hoff said. “Now that we’ve been rolling strong for eight years, there is a lot that takes care of itself with the oiled machine that we have. We’re remembering now that we are artists that need to create and excite our audience. If we are not excited and engaged, it’s not quite as full a circle.”

Hoff has acted in many Broadway and TV shows and was the voice of Richie Rich on the cartoon show in the early ‘80s.

Brrrr, enough of the Arctic blast, already.

I know it’s Indiana and winter, but man.

Let’s heat things up a WINEderlust little. Valentine’s Day is approaching and you are looking for the perfect bottle to surprise your sweetie? Want a delectable selection to enjoy in front of your fireplace?

Need a tasty crowd-pleaser for your supper club? I’ve got some great options. Take a look at these winners. I’ve got three to suggest: If you’re entertaining or seeking a valuedriven wine, look no further than this spicy blend from South Africa, Wildekrans Cabernet Franc-Merlot. It’s got a bit of tannic backbone, but loads of juicy and supple fruit. Think currants, blackberries, plums.

Serve it with rich winter stews or offer to bring the vino if you’re invited to someone’s house for lasagna. Approximately $17.

When you’re willing to take things to the next level, I’m really loving a wine from Ridge Vineyards in California. I like it even

more than usual. Like, it’s really good.

Ridge California Geyserville Zinfandel, 2015. This is a big-bodied glass. It has balance, it has oak, blackberry, cherry, black pepper and tobacco. It is a peppery bramble-bomb. It’ll warm you up for sure. $39.

So, that special bottle for your Valentine?

Or yourself? I don’t judge. It needs to be memorable and very delicious. You’re willing to spend a good amount. Go big or go home with Cape Mentelle Cabernet Sauvignon, 2013. An Australian treasure. Dark fruit with loads of berries, pretty ripe tannins and spice. Big and bold but still manages to be lively. A dichotomy. Hints of mint and eucalyptus and wisps of sandalwood will make you think you’re back at a Grateful Dead Show. Wait, what’s happening?

Play to target young viewers

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For Rebecca DeVries McConnell, children’s theater is a blast.

“The kids don’t hesitate THEATER to react vocally when they are excited, and it’s thrilling to get that instant feedback from them,” DeVries McConnell said. “One of my favorite parts about doing the Pyramid Players productions at Beef & Boards is doing the meet-and-greet and autographs that follow the show. The children are delighted to meet us, and it’s such a treat to converse with them in character about the story.”

DeVries McConnell will perform as the Fairy Godmother in “Cinderella” Feb. 17 to March 17 at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre.

She played the same role in a 2012 production at Beef & Boards.

“She’s a really feisty and fun character,” DeVries McConnell said. “This is a very funny interpretation of the classic fairy tale. Children will recognize their favorite characters but will enjoy getting to know some new ones that were adapted into this version.”

DeVries played the Sea Witch in the Pyramid Players’ production of “The Little Mermaid” in 2016. She also performed in “The Music Man” and “Godspell” at Beef & Boards.

DeVries McConnell, who has lived in Carmel for 10 years, graduated from Hamilton Southeastern High School. She studied musical theater at Hope College in Holland, Mich., and theater education at the University of Indianapolis.

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Cupids will take flight as part of “Beer & Ballet IV” on a Valentine’s Day weekend.

Aerial artist Kristen Noonan BALLET worked with Carmel-based Ballet Theatre of Indiana choreographer Cole Companion with dancers as flying cupids, which is set to the music of Queen.

“The idea is everyone is assigned a cupid to help them find true love,” BTI Artistic Director Stirling Matheson said. “But the idea is our main character is such a loser, he’s been assigned four. They’re still all very frustrated. It’s kind of like a romantic comedy. It’s funny, and there are ballerinas flying around.”

BTI and Sun King Brewery will team up for the fourth time for “Beer & Ballet IV” at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 16 and 17 at the Basile Theatre at the Athenaeum, 407 E. Michigan St., Indianapolis.

Kristen Noonan, a Carmel High graduate whose sister Megan is BTI dancer, also will perform her singing lyra act, which blends musical theater and aerial work. Other pieces by dancers include Emma Beigel, El-

vis Presley, Audrey Robson, Billy Joel, Stuart Coleman and The Chainsmokers.

Matheson’s piece includes music from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Instead of intermission, Matheson said there is a five-minute break between each piece.

“It’s fun and accessible, works for Beer and Ballet, generally brings in a new audience, and, hopefully, gets them hooked to let them love all of ballet,” Matheson said.

Tickets are $25 and Sun King beer will be available for purchase. For more, visit btindiana.org.

Blueprint for Improvement: Late-’90s kitchen transformation Commentary by Larry Greene

AFTER SOLUTIONS

Before

Background Info: This typical late1990s home in Avon was in need of an update both visually and functionally.

The original kitchen lacked the efficient layout and overall design the homeowners desired.

BEFORE PROBLEMS The kitchen cabinets were original to the home, the finish and door style dated the space and lacked efficient storage solutions. The overall layout of the kitchen didn’t function well for the homeowners and lacked open countertop space. The pantry was large and lacked organization elements.

After

The overall goal was to create a more functional kitchen while giving the homeowners the updated traditional design they had always dreamed of.

1. The biggest transformation was replacing all the existing cabinetry with new, two-toned cabinetry for a modern yet traditional look.

2. Additional cabinetry and cabinet accessories were added to help create more efficient use of the space.

3. The island was enlarged to create the space for a casual dining space and a microwave drawer.

4. Another large transformation was relocating appliances to create a more functional flow throughout the kitchen. This also made the space appear much larger without actually enlarging the footprint of the room.

Love is in the air

El Capitolio in Havana, Cuba.

(Photo by Don Knebel)

Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Havana’s symbolic capitol Commentary by Don Knebel Visitors to Havana are often surprised to find a massive and familiar looking building in the heart of the city. Conflicting claims that the building is a replica of the United States Capitol TRAVEL and that it has no connection with the Capitol are both false.

In 1925, after a period of political instability and financial distress, during which the U.S. repeatedly intervened to protect its interests, General Gerardo Machado became president. Machado immediately set out to make Cuba the Switzerland of the Americas, attractive to visitors from around the world. As one of many public works projects he initiated, largely financed by American banks, Machado engaged Cuban architect Eugenio Rayneri Piedra, the first graduate of Notre Dame’s School of Architecture, to design a home for the legislature to communicate a new image for Cuba.

To connote democracy and stability, Rayneri based the essential look and scale of the building on the U.S. Capitol. To connote European sophistication, he copied the dome of the Paris Pantheon.

Other design elements were adopted from Cuban colonial buildings. An estimated 5,000 laborers

completed the 681-by-300-foot building, named El Capitolio, in just more than three years. The elegant interior included the third-largest indoor statue in the world and a 25-carat diamond marking the center of the Cuban coordinate system. The Cuban legislature began meeting in its new home Feb. 24, 1931.

When the revolutionary government of Fidel Castro gained control of Cuba in 1959, it abolished the legislature. El Capitolio became the home of the Ministry of Science, Technology and the Environment. In 2013, Raúl Castro authorized an extensive renovation of a badly deteriorating El Capitolio to become home in 2018 to the Cuban National Assembly, established in 1976.

Did I say “love?” I totally meant to say “a snowboarder.” I love any and every GRAMMAR GUY competition in both the Summer and Winter Olympiads.

So from bobsleds to the event where they cross-country ski and shoot a gun, today I’m going to use the Winter Games to clear the air, so to speak, on a few similar sounding words: air, heir and err.

The most common of this group of homophones is air. As a noun, air most commonly refers to the combination of gases we breathe in Earth’s atmosphere. So when Shaun White elevates far above the halfpipe, snowboarding aficionados say he gets “big air.” As a verb, air means to let out or to broadcast. Even though it happened last night, I can’t wait to watch NBC’s re-airing of the Nigerian women’s bobsled team zooming down the track.

You know what they say about the biathlon: It’s the Nordic sport of kings. OK, they never actually said that, but go with me on this one. This winter sport combines cross-country skiing and rifle shooting. In a winter biathlon

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING Case No. VA-1801-61 The City of Fishers Board of Zoning Appeals will hold a public hearing on the 28th day of February, 2018 at the City of Fishers City Hall, One Municipal Drive, Fishers IN, at 6:00 p.m. The application submitted by Thomas and Victoria Vandergrift, the property owners, is requesting a Development Standards Variance from section 2.10 of the City of Fishers Unified Development Ordinance to allow a two hundred and fifty (250) square foot deck to encroach two (2) feet into a required five (5) foot side yard setback. The subject property has a common address of 10700 Woodmont Lane, Fishers, IN 46037 and is generally located on lot 34 of the Crosswinds at Windermere subdivision, which is located east of Mollenkopf Road, north of East 96th Street (a legal description is on file with the City of Fishers, Department of Community Development). Interested persons may file written comments or objections of the request with the City of Fishers, Planning and Zoning Department, One Municipal Drive, Fishers, Indiana, 46038-1574.

Interested persons will also be given an opportunity to be heard by the City of Fishers Board of Zoning Appeals at the above-specified public hearing.

gone terribly wrong, it’s possible the king of Norway could have a freak ski-and-rifle incident, leaving his heir to take the throne afterward. Heir is the person who inherits titles, land or property following another’s death.

You’ve probably heard the saying that goes “to err is human; to forgive, divine.” When Alexander Pope wrote this he had probably never seen the skeleton competition in the Winter Olympics. If anyone errs in this 80 mph dance with death, his skeleton gets shattered and his nation will never forgive him. In this case, err means to go astray or be mistaken.

I don’t quite have the air time for a few less common homophones: ere (an older way of saying “before”), are (a metric land measure), e’er (an old-timey way of saying “ever”) and eyre (an English itinerant judge). I did, however, want to make sure I included them so that you didn’t think I was erring in my ways.
