INDOT awards funds to local cities, counties

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb and Indiana Dept. of Transportation Commissioner Brandye Hendrickson visited Hamilton County Aug. 22 to announce the awarding of millions of dollars in matching funds to area communities.

Carmel Mayor Jim infrastructure Brainard, Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness, Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear and Westfield Mayor Andy Cook joined the state officials for a press conference marking the announcement outside the Indiana Design Center in Carmel.

Hamilton County, Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville and Westfield will receive nearly $4.5 million combined thanks to the state’s Community Crossing matching grant program.

The state received almost 1,600 applications from 320 communities for this round of funding, and 102 central Indiana cities, towns and counties will receive a combined $47 million to go toward improving local roads and bridges.

“That represents a huge commitment to modernizing local roads and bridges, but beyond that it shows that communities are committed to building the types of neighborhoods where people want to start businesses, grow their businesses and raise their families,” Holcomb said.

Carmel, Fishers, Westfield and Hamilton County, as well as Lawrence, Zionsville and Boone County, will each receive $1 million in matching funds from INDOT while Noblesville will receive $497,550.

FISHERS The City of Fishers is planning to put its $1 million matching grant toward modernization efforts to 116th Street between Eller Road and I-69.

“Today is a transformative day for all of us. The ability to maintain the critical infrastructure that we all have and we all need and all rely upon is becoming more and more challenging,” Fadness said. “This innovative approach that INDOT has for delivering matching funds to all the local communities so that we can continue to progress the quality of life for our residents is truly a well-

timed and extraordinary opportunity for each and every one of our cities. I want to thank the lieutenant governor and the state legislature, and I look forward to getting going on this project.”

LAWRENCE Lawrence Director of Public Works and Code Director William Anthony said the city submitted 14 applications for the $1 million in matching funds it was awarded. According to Lawrence Mayor Steve Collier, construction on those projects will begin this fall and are expected to be completed in the spring of 2017, beginning with construction on Boy Scout Road north of 56th Street to Fall Creek Road.

CARMEL The City of Carmel will invest its $1 million in matching grant funds into the construction of a new roundabout and additional improvements at the intersection of Range Line Road and 4th Street in its new Midtown redevelopment.

“As we move forward with this project and many other projects throughout the city in the next few years, I want to thank our residents and motorists for their patience,” Brainard said. “We will work hard to get our projects done quickly and with as little pain as possible for local businesses and residents.”

NOBLESVILLE The City of Noblesville has multiple road projects in mind for the nearly $498,000 it’s receiving from

Pence,” Ditslear said. “Two of these projects are residential projects that have been put aside and put aside and put aside because a lack of funds, as well as in the commercial district where we've wanted to pave and improve for three years. This will give us the opportunity to do this for our residents and all citizens in the county, as well.”

WESTFIELD The City of Westfield is planning to put its $1 million in matching funds toward reconstruction of Tomlinson Road between Blackburn Road and 203rd Street in addition to other city street improvement efforts.

“Our potential residents, potential investors business-wise in this state and our cities and towns, they look for a good infrastructure. I'm thrilled the state is recognizing that and is willing to put money in it,” Cook said. “Locally, our citizens simply ask, 'Hey, get the snow off and make it smooth.' This is going to go a long way toward accomplishing just that. To all those involved, thank you for putting the emphasis on the very important asset of roadway infrastructure.”

I-69 Construction Update Beams for the new 106th Street bridges over I-69 have been delivered, but inclement weather has delayed them being set into place. (Submitted photo)

THIS WEEK: Area rains and inclement weather forecasts caused the original schedule for setting beams for the new 106th Street bridges over I-69 to be delayed. Twentyfour beams, measuring 50 inches tall and totaling 175 feet long, will be set in pairs beginning Aug. 29, weather permitting. Beams for bridge sections over southbound I-69 will be set first. Up to three right lanes of southbound I-69 and one northbound lane may be closed between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Rolling slowdowns of traffic, lasting approximately 20 minutes each, will be used to create gaps in traffic and allow for safely lifting the large beams over the interstate. Backups and delays should be expected.

NEXT WEEK: Work will not take place Sept. 5 because of the Labor Day holiday, but, weather permitting, beams over northbound lanes of I-69 will be set, with similar schedules for overnight closures and rolling slowdowns expected.

Engines 392 and 394 are the latest additions to the Fishers Fire Dept. fleet, replacing trucks that are 25 and 16 years old.

(Submitted photo)

FFD gets two new fire trucks news@currentinfishers.com Fishers Fire Dept. firefighters have been training on a pair of new Pierce Saber fire engines for the past public safety week in anticipation of the trucks being fully equipped and ready for service in the field.

The new trucks, designated Engine 392 and Engine 394, are replacing two engines that have been in service for 25 and 16 years.

The older trucks will go into reserve status, only to be used to maintain full coverage across the city during the time it takes for a

front-line truck to be taken out of service for maintenance.

According to a release from FFD, the estimated life of a fire engine is typically eight to 12 years, plus five years as a reserve truck.

The department’s new engines each cost approximately $427,000, which Captain John Mehling stated is an estimated $200,000 savings per engine below the recommended list price — savings FFD was able to secure for Fishers residents by being a member of the Houston-Galveston Buying Group, which secures discounted prices through quantity purchasing power.

Creative Community Downtown Fishers’ Nickel Plate District becoming hotbed for public art projects

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Two new public art projects in the heart of downtown Fishers’ Nickel Plate District, one already in place and another on the way this fall, are the latest in an arts-minded city looking to add some creativity to its public spaces. cover story “We’ve got to give a lot of credit to the Fishers Arts Council and our city council members, who a few years ago (in 2013) adopted a Fishers Arts Master Plan,” Deputy Mayor Leah McGrath said. “In that plan, it really spelled out a vision for how to incorporate art into our city.”

That document was a first for Hamilton County, and the city’s latest public art projects include other firsts, as well as Fishers’ largest public art undertaking yet.

Jessica Springman’s “INvisable Art” appears seemingly out of nowhere when the sidewalk along the Central Green between Fishers City Hall and Liberty Plaza is exposed to water. (Photo by Sam Elliott)

BRIGHTENING RAIN-SOAKED SIDEWALKS Visitors to the Nickel Plate District’s Central Green between City Hall and Liberty Plaza may have already walked right across the city’s newest public art project without even realizing it.

Fishers artist Jessica Springman designed and implemented the “INvisable Art” installation, which the Fishers Arts Council believes is the first of its kind in Indiana.

The project utilizes Rust-Oleum’s NeverWet Multisurface paint, which causes the art to only be visible during and after rain or if water is poured over the designs.

The geometric designs, 76 in all, range in size from 17 inches by 17 inches to 34 inches by 34 inches and line the two 120foot sidewalks along the Central Green.

“I used a compass and a ruler to lay out the general designs, and then I took an Exacto knife and cut out the stencils,” Springman said. “We brought them out, taped them down and with the paint you

spray it down and the first step basically seals the concrete. What it’s doing is basically making it so that when the concrete gets wet, the design stays dry.”

The project, made possible by a 2015 City of Fishers grant, will be visible for up to two years, depending on foot traffic and other wear and tear on the sidewalks and paint.

“I saw something online on one of the public art blogs I follow about a project like this in Seattle and looked into it and thought, ‘I don’t think anyone’s doing this here. It would be really cool to have Fishers be the first to do it,’” Fishers Arts Council President Lisa Sirkin Vielee said.

“For this particular project we knew Jessica’s work, she was an exhibitor at Art in City Hall and has been a longtime resident in the area, and we knew that if she was willing to do that this was the perfect style for this.”

Rachel Johnson‘s series of banners at The Edge building will be more tailored to her specific subjects, although still abstract, than these rendering examples. She plans to highlight Fishers entrepreneurs with her series of banners for the project. (Submitted renderings)

ADDING PIZAZZ TO PARKING GARAGE Fishers’ next public art project will be its largest, as The Edge building’s parking garage will house a set of seven panels, each measuring 23 feet tall by 10 feet wide, to welcome visitors to the Nickel Plate District with splashes of eye-grabbing color.

Johnson “We’re proud of this project and the opportunity we have to bring a really outstanding project that will be the entrance to the Nickel Plate District,” McGrath said. “I think the artists we’ve selected are really going to be able to embody the vision of Fishers in a unique

way.”

Three area artists will each design a set of seven banners, with Fishers’ Rachel Johnson’s being the first to hang from the garage in October. Her banners will focus on the city’s entrepreneurial spirit.

“I really wanted to try and maybe expand that definition of an entrepreneur and then also tie it back to individuals in the community and really use this opportunity to celebrate all the amazing things that residents of Fishers are doing every day,” Johnson said.

Nominations for local entrepreneurs to be highlighted in Johnson’s public art project can be made at townoffishers.formstack.com/forms/the_edge.

NEXT AT THE EDGE In February of 2017, a new set of banners by Warren Miller will hang from The Edge building’s parking garage, followed by a set by fellow Indianapolis artists Kyle Ragsdale in the Miller summer of 2017.

Miller will focus his banners on Fishers being inclusive and a place for everyone. Miller, who is deaf, has experienced that welcoming spirit firsthand.

“I’ve never done something like this before with my art, putting it up in the public eye like this.” he said. As a graphic designer I’ve done things for companies before, but this is more personal and I’m very excited and thrilled that my art is going to be up there and exposed to the public.”

MORE: warrenmillerart.com Kyle Ragdale’s set of banners will play on the theme of the city being one community and the gatherings that take place within it.

“I think I kind of want to focus in on sort of that area and some of the great things to do,” he said. “The banners are real long and narrow, so they’ll Ragsdale be kind of splashes of big color and little vignettes of people enjoying the area.”

Appreciate the morning workout

The similar candidates

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Our quadrennial presidential sweepstakes regularly provides textbook studies in contrast. And 2016 raises the bar in disparity.

Red and blue. Left and right. Hot and cold. Up and down. Good and bad. Boy and girl. Pro and con. Loud and soft. Rain or shine. Fish and fowl. Dumb and dumber. Perhaps the only fact that supporters of both major party candidates can agree is that differences between the two do exist. Donald Trump is a Gemini and Hillary Clinton a Scorpio. He’s 70 years old while she doesn’t turn 69 until October. And that relative youth obviously goes a long way in explaining why millennials overwhelmingly favor her. One is a Democrat and the other a demagogue. But this is America, damn it, where yeah, sure, we acknowledge our differences. But this is a nation that also embraces that which binds us together, and the number of bizarre similarities the Donald and the Hillary share is uncanny. Well, they’re not quite mirror images, but considering one is a 5-foot-6 career politician and one is a 6-foot-2 reality TV star, there are enough peas-in-a-pod resemblances to call out the doppelganger police. For instance: righthanders with bulletproof hair; total disdain for truth; unfavorable ratings higher than guard geese downwind of a marijuana field on fire; butchers of the English language; and the list goes on. But finally, each candidate is adamant that if the other is elected on Nov. 8 it will be a disaster not just for the nation, but the hemisphere, the planet, the solar system and the universe. And the two have united millions who believe that on this issue they both may be correct.

Goldfish in a bowl Commentary by Terry Anker In what is perhaps the ideal example of thoughtful resource management, goldfish are known to only grow as much as the appropriately supported capacity of their container. If kept in a cereal bowl on the kitchen counter, the tiny fish will remain just that – a tiny fish. If they find their way into a much larger backyard pond, they might flourish into significantly larger creatures. Do we each find our own level of productivity and stick to it? If not, should we?

Anticipating the coming long winter, these waning weeks of summer have long been an impetus for humans to attend to various maintenance projects around home and hearth. The bit of chipping paint on the kitchen window frame, the broken downspout and the cracked footpath, all, in their own time, get attention, repair and restoration. Even with our own labor, we supplement our lack of experience, necessary tools, interest and motivation by outsourcing work to the skilled trades to finish

our projects.

The sidewalk requires overhaul. The dutiful homeowner requests bids from a shortlist of would-be contractors. Some show up on time to inspect the job. Others arrive late. Others don’t bother at all. Some will provide a quote as promised and with due haste. Others must be prodded into action.

Still others disappear without remark. What is the formula to find a match from beginning to end? Why is it that almost all of us claim a desire to “get” the work, but so many, when actually offered a job, withdraw from attempting the task?

Perhaps, too, I am overly eager to review every opportunity, thinking little of my own physical and intellectual constraints in actually doing it. How does the goldfish decide he is big enough for his bowl?

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK “Silence is now a precious commodity, a scarce resource hard to come by.”

-Brian Zahnd

I love working out in the morning! Getting up early, heading out into the cool, crisp blackness. Entering a humor zen-like stage of meditation where all I hear are shoes slapping the pavement, rhythmic breathing and the quiet seduction of birdsong. Predawn running is what I live for!

Is anybody buying this load of horse manure? Let’s be real: I absolutely despise getting up early to exercise. Who could possibly enjoy such torture when a relatively new king-size mattress and 600-count Egyptian sheets are begging her to stay?

I’m not Forrest Gump! But the alternative is worse, and so I find myself frequently having to endure that 5 a.m. alarm.

And over the years, I have at least learned to appreciate the morning workout.

I’m able to contemplate life, my family and this column without the pushes and pulls of carpool duty, work, the husband and that sexy temptress known as Netflix. It’s just me and my thoughts for 30 to 60-odd minutes, making it the perfect time to ponder my ripped pants debacle at the previous night’s Meet the Teacher and to establish time of death of said pants (anywhere from 2 to 6 p.m.); to consider how unlucky a black cat’s day will be after I cross his path; and to rehash episode five of my new obsession, “Stranger Things” (Nancy, for God’s sake! Why would you go in there?).

Plus, it’s dark, which means I can literally let it all hang out. Shirt twisted and tucked into a skimpy Daisy Duke, hair pinned into a messy top knot, no make-up, stretch marks a-showing . . . I am living the freedom-tobe-middle-age dream. No sun also means no SPF, no visor and no possibility of heat stroke. And if my bratty little cousin Incontinence makes an appearance, who cares?

There is literally no one alive at that godforsaken hour to notice.

Most importantly, the morning workout gets it over and done with, so that I can spend my free time stocking up on excellent nightmare fodder with “Stranger Things.” (Seriously, Nancy! How dumb are you?) Peace out.

Card carrying card carrier Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I have always wanted to collect something no one else in the world collects.

Over the years at Channel 8, humor I interviewed people with odd collections: a man with thousands of different sugar packets, a man with hundreds of mousetraps and one person with a garage full of water sprinklers. Another had 2,500 monkey wrenches. I even did a report on a woman who collects stamps. How weird is that hobby?

It’s kind of dumb if you’re the only person collecting something. There’s no one to brag to and no one to sell it to when you realize how you have been wasting the last 20 years of your life.

At the car wash yesterday, I noticed a great assortment of greeting cards, far funnier than the average Hallmark selection. People need a good laugh when both they and their cars are getting soaked for 20 bucks.

Many of the cards depicted political figures, replete with caricatures and satirical remarks.

They wish you Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary, and Get Well Soon, and there is even a Happy Bar Mitzvah card from “Uncle Bernie,” including a slot for a huge check.

When I got home, I went online to find out how far back the idea of funny political greeting cards went. I wanted to research a little of their history, but I found nothing.

Certainly a political cartoonist would know, so I called one. “Drawing a blank, Dick. And that’s not something most cartoonists will admit to.”

I called a political science professor at IU. “Sorry, I never thought about it, Mr. Wolfsie.

Actually, I believe I can safely say no one has ever thought about it.”

Had I found something that no one else collected? How cool is that?

I now have 25 different politically themed greeting cards, including seven featuring Donald Trump. So now I’m thinking of starting a club, and maybe creating a website or publishing a monthly newsletter about political cards.

And why not? It’s great. I have to be honest with you: I may have the largest collection in the world. Believe me.

Fishers religious leaders discuss teen suicide prevention

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com As a part of the Fishers’ Mental Health Task Force, the city’s Faith-Based Mental Health Group welcomed Mike mental health Dunn, the director of crisis and suicide intervention with Mental Health America of Greater Indianapolis, to its meeting and discussion focused on teen suicide.

“Our crisis and suicide intervention service has been around since 1970,” Dunn said. “We have to normalize the discussion of mental illness and suicide because if we can't, we're always going to fight this. If people only knew how common it is — it's just like cancer, there's not a family it hasn't touched.”

Dunn’s “Teen Suicide 101” presentation aimed to inform guests on the prevalence of teen suicide with training for recognizing when someone might be having suicidal thoughts and how to move quickly to connect them with someone specialized in suicide intervention.

Nearly 20 area leaders across religions and denominations attended.

“This leadership in this community, school leaders, clergy, the entire community, they are on the cutting edge of mental health, and they will be recognized nationally someday I predict because of their efforts,” Dunn said. “We're here to support them and any organization that we can.”

Citizens State Bank coming to Nickel Plate District news@currentinfishers.com Work is under way on the new Citizens State Bank inside downtown Fishers’ The Switch development. Expected money to be completed and open in the fourth quarter of this year, the expansion will bring the first full-service banking branch to the Nickel Plate District.

“This is a great addition to the Nickel Plate District,” Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said.

“Citizens State Bank has already proven to be a great community partner through sponsorship of our parks department and the Fishers Freedom Festive, and I welcome the expansion into our downtown.”

Inside The Switch, located at the corner of 116th Street and Municipal Drive, the Citizens State Bank branch is in the west side of the development facing Municipal Drive and the Nickel Plate District’s Central Green.

The branch will occupy a 3,200 square-foot space and will employ five new employees in addition to the bank’s first area employees.

“Fishers has been a part of Citizens State Bank’s growth strategy for some time,” said

The new Citizens State Bank branch in The Switch will be the first banking location in the Nickel Plate District when it opens later this year. (Photo by Sam Elliott)

the bank’s president, Dan Maddox. “We opened a load office in 2013 with longtime Fishers resident John DeLucia at the helm and later hired another Fishers resident, Elliott Somers. As we looked at locations for a full-service bank, Fishers’ vibrancy made it a logical choice. A smart, vibrant and entrepreneurial city needs a bank in the heart of its business district.

What’s happening in Fishers is very exciting, and we’re very excited to be a part of it.”

Food safety begins at home Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Once again it is important to make a few points about food safety. We don’t want our tailgaters to become part of the group of nearly three milliom estimated by the Mayo Clinic who fall prey to food poisoning. Some can make you sick for a long time, and others can even kill. Every year we post some simple rules that can be easily found online by typing “food poisoning” into a search engine. Here are some simplified rules we follow: • Prepare foods at home – Your kitchen tends to be a lot more sanitary than your tailgate party. Prepare as much as possible at home so that preparation at your tailgate is only grilling/cooking.

• Keep things clean – Wash hands, surfaces and utensils frequently and have hand sanitizer for all to use.

• Separate, don’t contaminate – Don’t mix uncooked foods during preparation.

Meats have contaminates that can be cooked away, but not vegetables that have come in contact with the surface used to cut meat.

• Cook all foods to the proper temperature – To kill bacteria. Meat temperature charts are available online or on our web site at http://tailgatershandbook.com/ Tailgating101/foodsafety.html.

• Keep cold foods (especially meats) cold – This means you need a separate cooler for foods and a separate one for drinks.

Here’s a great recipe for a pasta salad that all your guests will love. It is a safer recipe because you keep the food in a serving container at the bottom of your food cooler until you serve it.

One of those days?

Pasta Salad Ingredients: One package of ranch party dip (chip dip, not salad dressing), One cup of sour cream, One cup of milk, One pound of your favorite spiral pasta, Three cups assorted veggies (we like green peppers, radishes, onions, celery, red peppers, etc.), One cup of large, pitted olives, 1/4 cup crisp chopped bacon pieces Preparation: Prepare the party dip per directions with a wire whisk. Let the mixture thicken in the refrigerator.

Cook the pasta, al dente and then drain it in a colander. Using a large plastic re-sealable container, add the pasta and chopped veggies and bacon. Chill the mixture in the sealed container in the fridge. On game day, mix in the party dip and put the container into the bottom of your cooler/ice chest.

Blueprint for Improvement: Basement of entertainment Commentary by Larry Greene

After

After solutions: The goal was to give this family a functional, lively space to play, relax, and entertain.

1. The addition of a fully functional bar with standard kitchen appliances and both drink and food prep areas made this an entertainment hub for the adults. Bar stool seating makes it easy for friends to gather in one place.

2. Barn doors were used to separate the play area from the rest of the basement. This allowed for option of dedicated spaces for adults and children, or one open space for everyone to enjoy.

3. A fireplace was added in the main lounge area of the basement. This gave the basement a calming atmosphere to relax after a long day.

4. There are two areas of this basement dedicated to media entertainment. One is at the bar and the other is in the lounge area by the fireplace.

This gives these homeowners the option of watching a football game at the bar with friends, or a movie as a family on the couch.

Before Background info: The owners of this home in Zionsville’s The Willows neighborhood were looking to remodel their basic builder-grade basement. “Basic” did not fit the life of this family , so our main goal was to give this basement some personality.

Before problems: The No. 1 issue with this basement was underutilized space. There was nothing technically wrong with the basement but the family wasn’t using it, and wasted space is a problem.

They also needed separate spaces for both the parents and children, zoning off the basement for specific functions.

Divorce – Back To School: Controlled Expenses vs. Extraordinary Expenses In Indiana in any Dissolution of Marriage, Post-Dissolution, or Paternity action, the court will enter a child support obligation to be paid by one of the parties, (typically the noncustodial parent). The Indiana Child Support Guidelines are presumed to be applicable in every such proceeding and govern the payment and determination of child support. The Indiana Child Support Guidelines are based on the assumption the child(ren) lived in one (1) household with primary physical custody to the parent who undertakes all of the spending on behalf of the child(ren); therefore, that parent controls the children’s expenses.

the parent that does not get the parenting time credit (i.e., the “custodial parent”). If parents decide to share physical custody, one parent will be responsible to pay the controlled expenses.

What are controlled Expenses? Controlled expenses for the child(ren) are not those commonly transferred or duplicated between households.

Typically, controlled expenses are items like clothing, educational (e.g., school uniforms, books and supplies), ordinary uninsured healthcare expenses, and personal care. While there is no exhaustive list, just remember that the controlled expenses are those fixed expenses of the parent who has primary physical custody and are included in the Guideline child support schedules.

Who pays these costs? In any matter where child support is exchanged between parents, the support recipient is responsible for the child(ren)’s “controlled expenses.” For example, the custodial parent buys the backpack for the child(ren) and, as such, the noncustodial parent will not buy a separate one. Thereby, the custodial parent controls this type of expense. According to the Guidelines, the controlled expenses account for 15% of the cost of raising the child(ren). The other expenses are based on the amount of time each parent shares with the child(ren). As such, the more time both parents spend with the child(ren), the more expenses are duplicated or “shared” under the support calculation through the parenting time credit. Since controlled expenses are not shared, they will remain with

How are Extraordinary Expenses divided? When both parents agree that the child(ren) should participate in an optional activity, generally parents either split the expenses equally or pay their pro-rata share based on the income percentage calculated using the child support worksheet. If the parents are unable to reach an agreement on how to divide these expenses, the Court will generally assign responsibility for such costs by considering the following factors: the parent’s ability to pay, which parent is encouraging the activity, whether the child(ren) has/have historically participated in the activity, and the reasons a parent encourages or opposes participation in the activity.

In reality, it is not uncommon for disagreements to occur regarding controlled expenses and extraordinary expenses. If you find yourself in such a situation, you would be well advised to seek the advice of counsel to help find resolution to the issue at hand.

What are Extraordinary Expenses? When calculating child support, the Guidelines do not include components to address the child(ren)’s activities that would be considered “optional” in nature or activities not required by the child(ren)’s school. These expenses are generally related to summer camps, athletics, sports leagues, scouting, band, choir, additional tutoring, and similar expenses.

Creating a command center

By Sarah Nurmi “I’d like my family to be more organized this school year. Any advice on how to accomplish this?” ask an organizer A great way to achieve this is by creating a family command center. A command center is an organized drop spot that keeps the family on the same page. Not sure where to begin? Here are a few tips to get you started: 1. Choose a location: The command center only works if you can see it. Choose a space like a mudroom, hallway nook, a kitchen wall or entryway. A space you pass by daily is ideal.

2. Choose what to include: Determine what takes priority in your family. If the space allows, you may want each family member to have his or her own section of the command center. Schedules, calendars and a place to jot notes are all popular items to include. I highly suggest a “week at a glance,” especially if you have multiple commitments. This ensures you won’t miss an appointment, practice, game or performance.

3. Decorate to motivate: Making your command center pleasing to the eye will help you keep it that way. Use colors that you love and inspirational art. Use pieces that blend with your existing décor for a design that screams function and beauty. Keep your lines simple and clean. A cluttered command center defeats its purpose.

4. Display: Imagine the space as a giant scrapbook page. Arrange items on the floor or table. Once satisfied with the layout, use command strips to hang for a damage-free display.

5. Get the family on board: Share your expectations with the family to keep the command center updated and organized. Refer to it often, and it will soon become a staple in your home.

Happy organizing!

Things you didn’t know you could recycle – Here are some ideas for recycling things you didn’t even realize you could.

1. Household appliances – many vendors will haul away and properly dispose of these when they deliver you a new one.

2. Optical discs such as CDs, DVDs etc. – many local Best Buys will recycle these for you.

3. Toner cartridges and printer ink – Staples will recycle these, as will many other office supply stores.
