Water is a commodity that individuals and families use in and out of their homes evcity eryday, but rarely do they realize where it comes from, how much they have to expend or how much their community will need in the future.

Recently, Citizens Energy Group conducted a study in conjunction with the Indiana Chamber of Commerce that found Central Indiana will need an additional 50 to 80 million gallons of water, per day, in order to meet the rapid growth within the region over the next 25 years.

To answer this growing thirst for local communities, CEG announced on June 23 its plan of an 88-acre quarry site at 116th Street and Olio Road in Fishers to be utilized as a water-storage site. The quarry will store 2.7 billion gallons of water, equating to nearly half the amount of water in Geist Reservoir.

“Citizens Reservoir is a cost effective and sustainable solution for providing Central Indiana the water supply it needs for continued population growth and economic development,” said Jeff Harrison, chief executive officer for CEG. “The new reservoir will also be a vital component to helping the region endure serious drought conditions like those that led to mandatory water use restrictions in 2012.”

The announcement of CEG’s plans for building a reservoir here in Fishers not only benefits the

The site will be developed into a water storage unit.

city but also the surrounding communities of Central Indiana “When Citizens Energy came to me with this concept, I couldn’t help but be a little bit envious of how creative, innovative and efficient they were being by meeting the needs for water consumption for many years to come, not just for Fishers, but for the metropolitan area,” said Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness. “I’m fully supportive of what they are trying to do.”

The quarry will be designed to allow water that would otherwise flood over Geist the dam and be wasted during heavy periods of rain to

then be directed into the quarry where it will be stored.

Currently, the 230-foot deep limestone quarry is owned by Irving Materials, Inc. Citizens Energy Group will acquire the property from IMI and develop the quarry for water storage purposes by 2020.

“It’s exciting and gratifying to see our longstanding relationship with the water utility culminate in a project that will serve future generations,” said Earl Brinker, chief executive officer of IMI.

Food for thought this summer

By Amy L. Stewart • news@geistcurrent.com I’m starving!

No, that’s not just me complaining because I skipped breakfast. That is the charity cry of approximately 350,000 kids in Indiana who will spend today hungry, because they depend on school for their next meal, and they lack adequate access to food in the summertime. (To be clear - that Stewart is the number that do not have access to summer meal programs; I subtracted those.) According to a recent national survey, 83 percent of educators worry that when school is out, their students do not have enough to eat during the summer months.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that 1 out of 5 American children don’t get the food they need. 1 in 5. That’s a child you know.

Hunger puts children at risk for numerous other serious problems. Hunger causes children to be sick more often, to suffer from more fatigue, to recover from illness more slowly

and to be hospitalized more. Hungry kids don’t develop, concentrate, learn or score on tests at the same rates as kids with full stomachs.

They suffer from more absenteeism, suspensions, aggression and anxiety. Besides being hungry. Just plain hungry. Children and babies.

In Indiana. In America. That’s simply not okay.

Let’s do this: Before we swim, bike, boat, play baseball, go on vacation, barbecue, have picnics, watch fireworks, lay out by the pool, savor watermelon and corn on the cob . . . let’s just stop this. Let’s get that out of the way first. Let’s give to an organization like Feeding America (www.feedingamerica.org) or No Kid Hungry (www.nokidhungry.org). Let’s volunteer with our families at a local summer meals program. Let’s share a meal with someone in our community who needs one.

After that’s done, then we all can have a great summer.

To find free summer meals for your children in our community, or to volunteer to help provide meals to our neighbors’ kids, go to www. doe.in.gov/nutrition/summer-food-serviceprogram or www.summerservings.org or text “FOOD” to 877-877.

Mt. Vernon to goes digital

By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com Mt. Vernon school corporation is adding a 21st century learning upgrade to its classrooms. Beginning with the education 2015-16 school year, all students and staff will be immersed in a technology rich environment with individual computer devices. The 1:1 Digital Learning Initiative hopes to engage, enrich, motivate and challenge students while learning modern day computer skills to play Robbins an integral part of their everyday lives.

This initiative will bridge the divide between students not having technology access at home and adequate technology in the schools.

Students will be presented with a blended learning environment that will include a technology-rich instructional delivery coupled with traditional methods of instruction.

“The primary reason is to continue to stay at the forefront of providing our students with a 21st century learning environment, “ said MVCSC Superintendent Dr. Shane Robbins.

“Not only does it provide flexibility, it also is

a proven way to increase engagement and efficiency in the classroom, while increasing student achievement.”

For kindergarten through grade 6, the district staff and students will utilize 16GB Apple iPads. The iPads have a natural kinesthetic component that keeps students engaged and on task. For students and staff in grades 6 through 12, Dell Chromebooks will be distributed to be utilized for word processing and research capabilities, among other programs.

Initially, only grades 6 through 12 will have the option to transport devices home.

Parents are invited to attend an “Open Town Hall 1:1 Meeting” to hear a brief presentation from MVCSC’s Dr. Robbins, and have an opportunity to ask questions. The parents’ “Open Town Hall 1:1 Meeting” for the 1:1 Initiative will be July 15th at Fortville Elementary School Cafeteria beginning at 6 p.m.

For parents of students and those interested in learning more, visit the MVCSC school website’s FAQ section under the tab titled “1:1 Plan” or at www.mvcsc.k12.in.us/ Content/1-1Plan , which will provide details on topics such as no home internet access. How students will be kept electronically safe and curriculum software, among other topics.

Why I LOVE This Business!

Fitness is a personal choice. Many of us don’t get serious about fitness until we reach a trigger point something in our lives that causes us to pause and realize now is the time to take control! My trigger was a milestone birthday. I joined Koko and never looked back. In fact, I recently purchased the Koko FitClubs in Fishers and Carmel.

Before Koko, I was one of those people who failed at mainstream gyms.

Perplexed was the best way to describe my gym experience. I didn’t know how to use the equipment, how much weight to use or how many reps to complete.

And my form, well there wasn’t any form.

There was no guidance offered as part of my membership. The help and support I needed to get and stay fit simply wasn’t there. Then I found Koko, and my life changed in so many ways. I’m getting what I want, how I want it and when I want it. Koko provides me everything I need to get on, and stay on, a healthy path.

don’t feel like they fit into mainstream gyms. We exist for one reason and one reason only: TO CHANGE LIVES. The proven Koko approach is based on a personalized and structured program that can be done in as little as 30 minutes, just a few times per week. Koko has worked for thousands of people who have failed in traditional gyms. There is a better way, and that way is Koko.

If you’ve reached your trigger and want to learn more about how to attack it with Koko, come try us for a risk-free, 30-day trial for just $30. Let us prove to you that fitness is simple, easy and addictive!

We will guide, motivate, support and celebrate with you as you become the person you’ve always wanted to be. It truly is possible!

Bree Simmons in her derby gear.

(Submitted photos)

Doctor mixes medicine, roller derby

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com On roller skates, Bree Simmons occasionally delivers pain as her alter ego, The Killer Purple. Off the skates, Dr. Simmons is a healer.

Simmons, 33, has been a sports medicine cover story physician at St.Vincent Sports Performance for three years, splitting time between Clay Terrace in Carmel and St.Vincent Fishers Hospital. SimSimmons mons, who lives in Lawrence Township in Indianapolis, is also the team physician for Guerin Catholic High School.

Simmons had been a softball player and gymnast in high school.

“When I went through my medical training, I was overwhelmed and I got sedentary,” she said. “When my schedule started to improve, I had free time for the first time in years. That’s when I decided to pick up a sport again.”

She considered softball and volleyball but an advertisement for open workshops for roller derby caught Simmons’ eye.

“It was sort of on a whim, I gave it a try,” said Simmons, who has competed in roller derby for four years.

“I really fell in love with it.”

She eventually fell in love, too, meeting her husband

Nathan Robison, who plays on the men’s roller derby team. Simmons plays for the Circle City Derby Girls.

“I have a bout about every two weeks from May through August,” Simmons said. “It’s a full contact sport. There are risks. Just last week we had a skater suffer an ankle fracture at our practice. There are a lot of finger injuries from falling on their hands.”

Simmons is a jammer, which she means she is one of her team’s main scorers.

“I don’t normally initiate a lot of hitting,” Simmons said. “Hits are initiated on me because I score points by passing people on the other team. So I’m trying to get through and they’re trying to stop me.”

When Simmons first started to practice, she would wear an old purple T-shirt. People didn’t know her name at first so they would call just call her Purple. Simmons said a teammate suggested The Killer Purple as her Derby name with a nod to the book “The Color Purple.”

“I thought it was appropriate because the book is about female empowerment and overcoming adversity,” Simmons said. “And I can tell people at work my name and not be ashamed.”

Often Roller Derby nicknames have sexual or violent connotations. She said even her husband has wondered whether his pseudonym “One Nate Stand” is appropriate now that he’s married, although she doesn’t mind it.

Simmons plans to compete as long as she can stay healthy.

“It’s an important part of my life, not just because

of the fitness I get out of it,” Simmons said. “It’s my social network. This is my family, outside of my work family and my home family. I feel like it’s helped me professionally.”

Simmons has developed a safety protocol for her league. She also has been on the medical staff for two international championships and one World Cup because of her connections in the sport.

“It’s been great for me to get in these high level arenas and practice my occupation,” Simmons said. “It’s helping me be a better sports doctor, too.”

GET TO KNOW BREE SIMMONS Education: West Chester University undergraduate, Penn State medical school; residency at in St.Vincent Hospital; sports medicine fellowship at Wake Forest.

Personal: Turns 34 on March 5, 2016. Married Nathan on June 7, 2014.

Favorite restaurant: The Red Lion Grog House, Indianapolis.

Favorite TV show: “This is kind of embarrassing but Nathan and I like to watch reruns of ‘The X-Files.’”

Favorite vacation spot: “For our honeymoon, we went to Sedona, Ariz. It was gorgeous. If you could put a Nashville, Ind., in Arizona, that’s what I feel like it was like. There were a lot of artists’ colonies. It was beautiful surroundings there.”

Favorite musician: “I’m a diehard Bruce Springsteen fan.”

Color Guard inspires respect

F R O M T HE B A C K SH O P He’s telling us the truth, folks It strikes us that Thomas Sowell - a brilliant man, in our opinion, and a fellow of the Hoover Institute as well as a syndicated columnist – delivered a pinpoint hit on something we’ve thought for some time. It all has to do with the new buzzphrase, “microaggression.” He wrote recently, “Professors at the University of California-Berkeley (home of the Speech-Free Zone; yes, indeed) have been officially warned against saying such things as ‘America is the land of opportunity.’

Why? Because this is considered to be an act of ‘micro-aggression’ against minorities and women. Supposedly it shows that you don’t take their grievances seriously and are therefore guilty of being aggressive toward them, even if only on a micro scale.” By using similar examples and effectively portraying it as so much hogwash, he brought the liberals out of the bushes by the bushels, probably because what he wrote makes so much sense that they can’t comprehend. That, folks, is pathetic. You can’t make it up. We strongly agree with Sowell on a lot of points, but chiefly this one: “The concept of microaggression is just one of many tactics used to stifle differences of opinion by declaring some opinions to be ‘hate speech,’ instead of debating those differences in a marketplace of ideas. To accuse people of aggression for not marching in lockstep with political correctness is to set the stage for justifying real aggression against them.” Liberals may not be aiming at autocracy, but, in Sowell’s words, “their know-it-all mindset leads repeatedly and pervasively in that direction, even if by small steps, each of which might be called “micro-totalitarianism.”

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Surfing the mob

Commentary by Terry Anker

It is a funny thing, this expressing oneself in a public forum. One takes complex ideas and works to distill them into a few hundred words. If done right, these carefully selected syllables make a point, in the most economical fashion, while retaining a modicum of good humor. If one misses the mark, readers will misunderstand, disagree or worse, disregard the intended idea expressed. It is for this very reason that politics, though alluring for its import (and often salacious subject matter), is particularly difficult to fairly express. But, newspapers may be the ideal place for such discourse – so, we trudge onward.

But if asked should businesses and notfor-profits take a political stand, my instinct is to employ the greatest of caution. Over the years, those organizations in my sway have worked to assert a solid pro-freedom position – whether that is gender equality or religious in nature – but also to know that we do not have the think-tank-capac-

ity to evaluate these political measures in their depth.

Unfortunately, it seems increasingly difficult for even individuals to express a point of view when they ascend to institutional leadership. Some tabloids have taken to printing the names of employers of elected officials with whom they disagree. We can assume retribution was to be the objective. In one recent example, comments following such an online attack article suggested aggressive action be taken towards the grocery chain Kroger. Unfortunately, no one on the long list of supposed wrong-doers were employees of the food company; instead they were from a law firm of a similar moniker.

Mobs turn quickly and can be very dangerous. Surfing upon them can be exhilarating, no doubt, but is it worth the risk?

Q U O T E O F T HE W EE K The toughest thing about success is that you’ve got to keep on being a success.

– Irving Berlin

It’s happened again, friends. One of my long-held beliefs has fallen wayside. Much like Tae Kwon Do, I have a new-found respect for Color Guard. humor Guard, for you amateurs, is the performance counterpart to marching band, aka “the girls with the flags.”

Before my oldest daughter joined the high school team, I had them pegged as being not quite athletic enough to play sports or musical enough to be in the band. Basically, I assumed they’d all been cut from cheerleading.

Granted, I had absolutely no basis for these claims, and in fact, never knew a single person involved in Guard. But I was certain I didn’t want my kids participating.

My apologies to all Guard families! I couldn’t have been more wrong in my judgey analysis! My rising ninth grader has been hard at work for a month (yes, they started in May), and I have already seen a huge difference in her confidence and work ethic.

Not that she was lacking in the self-esteem department, but since her younger sister got heavy into competitive dance, I’ve sensed some jealousy and a tad bit of “I wish I could wear make-up and costumes and be centerstage, too.”

Enter Guard. After two intense weeks of learning basic flag holding, spinning and tossing, and then a choreography mini-camp, the team put on a preview show. My husband and I were absolutely blown away. Our often goofy, in-the-middle-of-teenage-awkward-phase, sometimes-personal-hygienechallenged daughter suddenly transformed into a gorgeous, graceful and strong young woman who had beautiful lines and facial expression. How did this happen?

Turns out, Guard’s secret is building team spirit and togetherness through hard work and accountability. They focus on the whole person, with equal parts physical, emotional and mental exercises to get these girls to believe in themselves and to push for perfection. Our daughter is exhausted almost every night, but I’ve never seen her so passionate about anything.

So thank you, Color Guard, for opening my eyes to your worth. I’m looking forward to adding “Guard Mom” to my minivan! Peace out.

DESIGN & REMODELING SEMINAR

Come See Our Outdoor Grilling Demo!

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

I don’t want to spend the money; I don’t think we will get a good return on our investment; the house will be a total humor mess for six weeks; and, I really don’t care if we have soft-close cabinet doors and roll-out pantry shelves.

I only agreed to remodel the kitchen because I was sure that once the construction began, I’d find lots of humorous things to write about, which is way more important to me than granite counter tops with beveled (or did we decide on rounded?) edges.

Hiring the right people to do the kitchen is my wife’s job. Her criteria involve careful perusal of catalogs and confirming ratings on Angie’s List. Several design people came to our house to offer ideas. “Did you like the proposal from the guy at Kitchens Galore?” asked Mary Ellen.

“Not really,” I said. “I don’t think he is going to be funny to work with.”

“You mean ‘fun’ to work with?”

“No,‘funny.’ I’m not shelling out big bucks and then have nothing to show for it.”

“Is that why you wanted to go with me when I looked for kitchen lighting?”

“Yes, I thought you would be funny looking.”

“Excuse me?”

“Let me re-punctuate that. I thought you’d be funny, looking. You’d be walking up and down the aisles examining fixtures, asking about wattage and lumens. Gotta be laughs in that.”

My life is spent hoping I can turn something into a funny story. My supplemental health plan notified me they could not cover my prostate exam because they had me listed as a woman. “Why are you happy about this?” asked Mary Ellen, who, by the way, was almost 100 percent sure that it was a mistake.

“Because when I tell them I am on Medicare, they’ll ask me which parts. And I can say: ‘The parts you’re not covering.’”

Completely remodeling our kitchen will create a major disruption in our lives. Making this commitment is not a laughing matter. But I’m hoping to change that.

Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre celebrates 100 years with gala

By Sam Robinson • news@currentinwestfield.com

Supporters of the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre celebrated its 100th anniversary at the historic Booth Tarkington house on Indianapolis’ near anniversary north side on June 20.

The gala event raised over $61,000 for the community theatre, which is one of the oldest in the country. The theatre also raised over $9,000 from online donations the previous day.

John Hedges, the executive director of the theatre, said that community support allows the theatre to inspire young people.

“Engendering a sense of hope in young people is at the core of our education system and at the Civic Theatre,” Hedges said. “Theatre at its best is where you go to gain your sense of humanity.”

The Civic Theatre offers classes to children, young adults and adults that want to act.

“I’m so proud of everything Civic does,” Brent Marty, the director of music and education, said. “I feel we do quality work.”

Attendees saw the Junior Civic group perform a number from “Alice in Wonderland.” They also saw Park Tudor student Nick Gehring perform a song from “Oklahoma!” Adult actors Katie Schuman and Tobin Strader then performed a song from “Spamalot.”

“The reason why we’re here is because everyone here has done something to help Civic Theatre,” Hedges said.

Alyssa Boge, a volunteer curator with the theatre, helped organize a collection of historic memorabilia. She said that famous author and dramatist Booth Tarkington

(Left) Chairman of the Civic Theatre board of trustees, Connie Horwitz, spoke after receiving an award to recognize her service to the theatre.

once noted that the Civic Theatre performed one of his plays better than Broadway.

Boge said that the theatre formed 100 years ago because everyday people wanted to see shows.

“It was starting because there wasn’t a lot of theatre in Indianapolis,” Boge said.

The theatre’s next show is “Oklahoma!” which runs from July 23 to the 26. Tickets are on sale at civictheatre.org

Lions Parks to host annual summer concert series

By Joseph Knoop • news@currentinwestfield.com The Zionsville Lions Club’s July Concert Series is bringing four separate free concerts for the public throughout the month of July.

2015’s series’ theme “Movie Musical Magic Brings music Broadway Across America” plans to bring a number of show-tune-themed performances to the Lions Club in Zionsville.

“I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy: A Salute to America From Broadway and Hollywood,” directed by John Richardson and performed by the Zionsville Concert Band is scheduled for July 5. Featured soloists are Kathy and Tim Haines.

“Immortal Showtunes From Broadway,” directed by Samuel Rhinesmith and performed by the New Horizon Band is scheduled for July 12.

“Highlights and Songs From Broadway at the Movies,” directed

by Will Frazier and performed by the Swing Shift Indy Jazz Band is scheduled for July 19.

“Broadway Gold From Broadway’s Biggest Hits,” directed by Dr. Daniel Zolin and performed by the Indianapolis Municipal Band is scheduled for July 26.

“I started this series because families seldom have good family time,” Joyce Davis said. Davis has been the concert director for the Zionsville Lions Club for 11 years. “I wanted a wholesome environment for children and their parents to come.”

Each concert begins at 7 p.m. at the Lions Clubhouse at 115 S Elm St. in Zionsville with sound provided by David Thompson. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs. Refreshments are provided for a donation.

“It’s lasting music that won’t just come and go as a fad. It’s such a thrill to me when people say ‘thank you so much.’”

Get fit with your little one Commentary by Kara Babcock Summer is finally here! Not only is the warm, sunny weather a great time for cookouts, going to the zoo and exercise baseball games, but it’s also a great time to get outside and exercise with your little ones.

With all Hamilton County has to offer here are a few of Baby Boot Camp-Carmel, Noblesville and Fishers recommendations on some fun and easy places to get exercise this summer.

Park: The park is by far the best place to get fit! You can use the benches, swings, slides and monkey bars as your exercise equipment by doing push-ups, pull-ups or planks. In addition, while you are getting exercise, your little one is having a blast playing.

Walking trails: In Hamilton County, we have so many great walking tails. For example, take a family walk or bike ride down the Monon Trail. It will be a great way to get outside, get fresh air and bond with your baby. If you want to add a little more cardio to your walk, you can run with your stroller, or do high knees while running with your stroller or walking stroller lunges.

Backyard: The most convenient is to make

use of your back yard. If your child is old enough to walk, get a sprinkler out and play in the water. If they are old enough to run, you can both take turns running thru the water to cool off while also getting a little cardio. Other fun ways to get a little cardio are to get your neighbors and play a fun game of tag or whiffle ball. Your little ones will love playing and also seeing their parents laugh and have fun.

How to attack belly fat Commentary by Corey Black Feel like you have too much fat around the belly? Besides feeling conscientious, it may be negatively affecting your nutrition health. Much of belly fat can be visceral fat, or fat lying under the abdominal muscle. Visceral fat is linked to negative health effects of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes as it increases insulin resistance.

We can do a lot about it though. A first step is to start cutting out the junk carbohydrates which feeds our belly fat. These carbohydrates are refined sugars and also starches in the form of foods such as grains and potatoes, which quickly metabolize into sugar in your body. Reducing as much of these carbohydrates as possible is important in reducing belly fat.

There are supplements that can also help your body attack and metabolize belly fat.

Conjugated Linoleic Acid is a fatty acid natural to our bodies that has been shown to reduce fat around the core area. Participants in studies have lost from 1.5 to three pounds by simply adding 1.7 grams of CLA supplement to their daily diet.

CLA works by improving fat metabolism and prevent its storage by helping glucose pass into muscle cells more effectively, preventing it from being converted into fat. As well CLA helps fat enter the cell membranes of muscle and connective tissue, where the fat is burned for fuel. It also interferes with a substance in your body called lipoprotein lipase that is used to store fat in your body.

To increase fat metabolism, a green tea extract supplement is a powerful tool. Green tea contains powerful antioxidants. One of them in particular is EGCG, which has been found to accelerate metabolism. EGCG naturally stimulates the central nervous system and causes fat to be released into the blood stream for the body to use as fuel. It provides extra energy, sheds excess water, and helps burn off body fat.

Don’t just ignore or accept belly fat. It’s more important to your health than you know.

Financial considerations for new graduates

Commentary by Joseph Clark

Congratulations 2015 grads (and parents)!

As you begin your career, you’ll make many decisions that impact your college financial future, including participating in your employer’s retirement savings plan.

I’m often asked how much money an employee should contribute to their employer’s plan. Always contribute as much as you can up to the company match. Ask whether your employer’s plan offers a Roth component that will allow contributions to grow tax free indefinitely. If your employer’s plan doesn’t include a Roth 401K option, you may be wise to take the dollars after the company match and direct them to a Roth IRA. Make sure you’re saving the correct amount of income for your age. The percentage of income that needs to be saved in order to reach retirement savings goals is smaller the sooner you begin saving. People under 25 can save 5-7 percent of their income over the course of their career and have a shot at fully replacing their standard of living.

It’s also important to build tax diversification into your accounts. This means that you want some savings exposed to taxes each year, some funds tax-deferred, and some funds growing tax-free in some type of Roth instrument.

Defending your credit score and knowing your debt-to-income ratio are important financial responsibilities. Your credit score not only indicates your worthiness as a borrower, but impacts other factors like car insurance rates.

Your debt-to-income ratio is one of the most important numbers considered when lenders review a mortgage application. The debt refers to all contractually obligated monthly expenditures divided by your income. Ideally, you want your ratio to be about 37 percent debtto-income. Manage debt or it will manage you.

The Capitol: Homage to Roman Gods?

LIFESTYLE

Commentary by Don Knebel The Capitol in Washington, D.C., is among the most-recognizable buildings in the world.

Even the name of this symbol travel of American democracy mirrors European religious buildings, some of them pagan.

In 1791, Pierre L’Enfant, a French-born artist, developed a plan for a new government city along the Potomac River, choosing Jenkins Hill for the “Congress House.” Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson renamed both the hill and the proposed building after Rome’s Capitoline Hill, the site of the ancient temple to Jupiter Optimus Maximus Capitolinus. Jefferson then suggested that those submitting designs for the new Capitol should evoke the Pantheon, a second century domed temple to all Roman gods. William Thornton, a Scottish-trained physician living in the West Indies, submitted the winning design, incorporating elements of the Pantheon into the section between the legislative chambers, with a low dome centered on columns, supporting a classic pediment. These design elements were modified, but all were included in the original Capitol, which was finally completed in 1818 after being damaged in the War of 1812.

By 1850, Congress had outgrown the legis-

lative chambers and approved adding a new chamber at each end of the existing Capitol.

The existing dome then appeared too small in relation to the larger building. Like the Pantheón, the Capitol now incorporates a “double dome,” the inner section, scaled to fit the original rotunda, and the outer section, scaled

to the larger exterior.

Because the cast iron was showing signs of deterioration, the Capitol dome has been under repair since 2014. The history of the dome and illustrations of the Capitol designs since 1792 can be reviewed in the massive underground visitors’ center, opened in 2008.

WHAT TO EXPECT: The Dangers of Social Media During Divorce I can see what you see. The proliferation of social media has allowed us to share events with friends and family across the globe. Through pictures, tweets, status updates and a host of sites, a virtual travelogue of someone’s life is available. . .to everyone. In the world of divorce litigation, however, this has given rise to an entirely new method of collecting information and, ultimately, evidence to put before a court charged with deciding divisions of assets and custody of children. With the popularity of social media, the internet is filled with information from online profiles. Users who are unaware of the broad availability of this information to a former spouse or opposing counsel are posting at their own risk. With so much of what is posted being available to “share,” it is nearly impossible to control access to this information. Further, as part of information exchanges common to divorce proceedings, it is now common to request the entire history of a Twitter account or Facebook page, so even if your privacy settings would not allow the former spouse or counsel to see your account in real time, they will get to comb over all your pictures and posts to pick out those which can cast you in a negative light.

Tweeting evidence. That great picture of you and a bunch of friends doing shots before the concert received 62 “likes,” 22 “comments,” and 5 “shares.” Now it’s being presented to a Court to show that you left the children with a sitter while you went out and got drunk. Fair or unfair, in the hands of

an experienced litigator that post can speak volumes about your priorities, bad habits and even the quality of your parenting. That “vent” about how the children would be so much better off if your ex joined the Peace Corps and vanished from their lives? It’s being presented to argue that you’ve done all you can to alienate the children. These are just examples of “normal” interactions through social media that, in the context of a contested divorce, can be damaging to your position and compromise your arguments to a court.

How is it used? The Indiana Court of Appeals recently ruled that witness testimony identifying a Twitter account taken together with the posted content was enough to authenticate that the account belonged to a criminal defendant without the identification of the account by the defendant himself. Of course, the most common way for that evidence to make it before the Court will be to have the actual person identify the account and the questionable position during cross-examination. Don’t let this be you!

At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, custody, support, or any other family law concerns contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com.

A new definition for ‘dote?’

Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Just found out there is a definition for ‘dote’ I was not aware of. To me it has always been ‘to show grammar guy excessive love or fondness.’ Ex: She loves to dote on her children. Then while looking up the word, I find it is, also, ‘to be foolish, or feeble-minded’ especially as a result of senility. WOW! I could have called someone ‘a dotage’ or ‘dotard’, and they may not have felt so insulted. Haha. The things one finds in the dictionary … it never ends.” -- (Clem Sare) Answer: Clem, you can call anyone you want a “dotard” … as long as it isn’t me.

Since you bring it up, “dotage” is an interesting word. It’s not one you hear very often either, so I thought it would be fun to write about.

As you said earlier, to “dote” is either to exhibit mental decline similar to old age or to be lavish or excessive in one’s attention. It’s a dichotomy a Spartan would laugh at – if Spartans were prone to laughing.

“Dotage,” though, only has one meaning – maybe. Both Oxford and Merriam-Webster only seem to recognize “dotage” as meaning “the period of life in which a person is old and weak.” So you wouldn’t call someone “a dotage,” but rather say they are in “their dotage.”

Other, less reputable dictionaries, however, offer a second “nouning of the verb,” if you will. To wit: Defining “dotage” as “excessive or foolish affection.”

Now, I can’t say I’ve ever heard “dotage” to mean anything other than the definition Oxford and MerriamWebster list. If anything, I would think it would be more common to use the gerund “doting” if one wanted to talk about the aforementioned excessive and foolish affection.

But, then again, who am I to say? I’m just a Grammar Guy.

… you can call anyone you want a “dotard” … as long as it isn’t me.

Build a meaty grilling station (Submitted photo)

Styles of kitchen sinks

Commentary by David Decker (Submitted photos)

Commentary by Randy Sorrell THRILLING … the one word description of the featured grill station! It hardly seems meaty enough outdoor living though. The bold confidence required to implement the first few phases of this modern project (not contemporary) was both gutsy and visionary.

The incredibly versatile and forward materials selected are reminiscent of a favorite magazine spread featuring an outdoor living space you may recall. While edgy, it rings of historical spaces we often experience in dense metropolitan vibes, where real estate is precious and a rare stroke of grass is coveted.

IPE. STEEL. Ipe is a Brazilian hardwood, often environmentally farmed, whose longevity will certainly span our children’s lifetime. The density and weight has a steel quality about it, especially when it’s time to cut or drive a nail through.

Disney employs the wood often for ease of maintenance, its sleek beauty and generational duration. It’s gorgeous and intended to gradually turn a naturally silver hue.

Both the counter surface and the facade of the grill station were built using ipe with a heavy steel post anchoring the end of the bar height counter. Ipe and steel are repeated elsewhere in the design, but you will have to wait on that encounter. Lust away.

COURTYARD Detailed planning married with strong horizontal lines and eliminating curves causes this abbreviated courtyard to live much larger than it actually is. There is a gentle embrace of the space.

I can’t wait to share the final phases we’ve completed. You will be thrilled with the story.

Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel home improvement firm. He may be reached at 679-2565, randy@choosesurroundings.com or www. choosesurroundings.com.

There’s no home appliance that’s more hardworking than the kitchen sink. Between cooking activities to remodeling cleaning tasks, the kitchen sink plays a part in it all. Since they are the center of the any room they are installed in, it’s no surprise that the sink becomes a major centerpiece for the design of a kitchen.

Top mounts styles are the easiest and most inexpensive. They are designed to be dropped right into the countertop opening, and are equipped with a rim that goes over the counter to secure the sink in place. While this rim makes the sink cheaper, it can also be a trouble spot for dirt and bacteria to hide in, if the sink is not cleaned properly.

We recommend an undermount sink which provides a much sleeker look. With these designs, the sink mounts to the underside of the countertop: no rim, no mess. Additionally, they may require some kind of internal support system to secure the sink depending on the building material you select.

Finally, homeowners searching for vintage charm have been choosing apron-front (or farmhouse) style sinks. Apron-front designs have a deep basin, which is appealing for

homeowners who want to soak dishes or scrub large pots in the sink. However, this model typically requires specially fitted cabinets. As the design becomes more popular, some manufacturers are creating designs that makes it possible to retro-fit one of these sinks onto a standard cabinet designs.

Do your research, and make sure you choose a model that will work for your remodel project.

Additionally, designers have been creating accessories that make various tasks that center around the kitchen sink much easier.

For example, there are sinks available that feature fitted cutting boards, drying racks, utensil trays and colanders. You may even choose to install two sinks in the kitchen that have different functions. Pairing a deep, single basin sink with a shallower, doublebasin sink allows you to use one for soaking dishes and the other for food and vegetable prep.
