Display encourages young artists

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

With proud grins and pointed fingers, Noblesville Schools’ elementary students identified their artwork to camera toting parents at the Young Artists ART Exhibit at Nickel Plate Arts, 107 S. Eighth St. “This is just neat with all the people here.

I like all the randomness in the artwork,” student Zakyla McMahon said.

“I feel special. It’s really exciting,” Hinkle Creek second-grader Ava Murdock said.

Murdock’s parents, Jason and Jennifer, enjoyed how the community is able to see the talented students’ work and the feeling of accomplishment she and other students have to be on display.

“I think it’s great. Art is her favorite thing to do.

She loves it,” Jennifer said.

“It promotes the artistic creativity of children. It brings all the elementary children together,” Jason said.

Like many students, Noble Crossing first-grader Lauren Paska stood beside her “Cat in the Hat” painting as her mother, Amy, took a photo.

“She’s always drawing,” Amy said. “It’s a phenom-

enal way to show off the kids work and teach them the value of art.”

While Noblesville High School students have been involved in Nickel Plate Arts events, this is the first experience with elementary students. NPA Executive Director Ailithir McGills said the idea for the project came from working with Darlene Patterson, Promise Road Elementary art teacher.

“We want to support younger artists and get kids and families familiar with Nickel Plate and what our opportunities are here,” she said.

“We’re always looking for some places to put the kids’ artwork. This place is wonderful and kidfriendly,” Patterson said. “Kids can come back and see other exhibits or take a class.”

The artwork is a culmination of the year’s work.

“It’s a sampling of different projects we worked on,” Patterson said.

The Young Artists Exhibit runs through May 4.

Nickel Plate Arts is open noon to 5 p.m. Thursdays and Fridays and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays. For more information, call 452-3690 or visit www.nickelplatearts.org.

Food + art = winning combination

By Mark Johnson • mark@youarecurrent.com

Food and art. An unusual duo? Perhaps, few people would consider those two items a noteworthy combination. Yet, for the Hamilton County Arts Association, food and culture art are adding up to a winning combination.

On Friday, the HCAA will open its annual “Bon Appétit” Art Show and Noblesville Restaurant Art Demonstration. As artist Patty Mac Innis explained, this year’s show is a major step forward.

“This is the first year that the restaurants will be involved,” she said. “All the restaurant owners have been great. They’ve put up miniaturized posters advertising the show, and they have really helped to promote it.”

This year’s “Bon Appétit” opening is part of Noblesville Main Street’s lead off First Friday for the 2013 season. “Bon Appétit” showcases art that have food or food related themes. This year, 18 artists will participate in the show. Each artist will have painting demonstrations in or near 12 of Noblesville’s restaurants.

An open house will be from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, with a free art shuttle bus providing transportation to two places on the square and the Judge Stone House parking lot. The shuttle will then return to the HCAA Birdie Gallery, 195 S. Fifth St. Artists will paint from 5 to 7:45 p.m.

Patrons will be able to bid on the paintings in a silent auction at the Birdie Gallery. Bids will be

closed at 8:45 p.m.

“There are three goals of the show,” Mac Innis said. “We want to promote the restaurants, educate people on the arts, and have a fundraiser for the HCAA.” Indeed, in a show of deep commitment to the arts and the artistic community, each artist will donate 50 percent of the sale of the painting back to the HCAA. “We are looking forward to a large, excellent show,” Mac Innis said.

As an ambassador, 4-year-old Matthias Vescelus serves as an inspiration

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

Matthias Vescelus is like most 4-year-old boys.

He’s inquisitive, full of life, and at times rebellious and rambunctious. He makes people smile and, he takes piano and swimming lessons.

However, Matthias also is unique. He’s a three-year cancer survivor cover story and can’t see.

Matthias was born on Aug. 20, 2008. On Dec. 10, 2008, he was diagnosed with retinoblastoma in both eyes and immediately underwent six months of chemotherapy, monthly laser- and cryo-therapies and exams under anesthesia.

“By the time he was diagnosed, we knew it was serious. With the eyes there was not a whole lot based on the symptoms. We hoped it was not what it was,” said Matthias’ mother, Katie. “He passed all his vision tests at birth. We looked at worst-case scenarios and when five doctors walked in at Riley (Hospital for Children), we knew it wasn’t good news.”

Near the end of treatment, Matthias’ tumors started growing rapidly and were found inside his viscous fluid. His parents, Katie and Craig, made the decision to have both of his eyes removed before his first birthday – one on June 30 and the other on July 14.

“His doctor said there were so many tumors he couldn’t count them,” Katie said, adding that Matthias now has realistic prosthetic eyes. “It ended up being the right decision. There’s no good decision, but we went with what we could live with.

We were 100 percent on the same page.”

Katie and Craig said Matthias’ blindness has complicated the simplest of tasks. It took them a year and a half to teach him how to run or spit toothpaste into the sink after brushing his teeth.

“He has absolutely no reference points – size, shape – no idea what we look like or what a rainbow is,” Katie said. “I wish he could see for just 30 seconds to understand why he needs to put a shirt on the right way.”

“One of the things we learned is perspective,” Craig said. “We don’t have bad days.”

Matthias was diagnosed as “cancer-free” by Riley and has no chance of reoccurance because his eyes were removed. Unfortunately, the treatment that saved his life also gives him a higher risk for future illness. Katie said his chemotherapy causes cancer, and he is at risk for leukemia, and the genetic mutation that caused his original cancer can also cause other cancers later down the road.

“The risk goes up every year he’s alive,” Katie said. “He sees his oncologist for monitoring every six months, and so far he’s been fine. We try not to think about it, but we have to.”

the St. Baldrick’s Foundation, a childhood cancer charity funding research to help find cures, in 2012. Katie shaved her head as part of a team named “A Bunch of Bald Chicks.”

“I was on board,” Craig said.

“Our goal was to raise $2,000,” Katie said. “I never thought we’d hit it, and we raised almost $6,000. The checks just kept rolling in from people who knew us.”

In July 2012, Matthias was selected as a St.

Every year, the St. Baldrick’s Foundation selects five ambassadors to represent the thousands of kids touched by childhood cancer from many different geographic areas, age groups, disease types and more. These brave kids, like Matthias, serve as a reminder that childhood cancer doesn’t discriminate and that one in five kids diagnosed in the U.S. will not survive.

The ambassadors and their families allow the St. Baldrick’s community the opportunity to follow their stories for a year, sharing a glimpse into the lives of families taking on the realities of childhood cancer. Their stories inspire thousands of St. Baldrick’s participants, volunteers and donors to take action and make a difference for children with cancer. St. Baldrick’s community has raised more than $4 million for childhood cancer research. For more information or to donate, visit www. stbaldricks.org.

Baldrick’s 2013 Ambassador. He is the first retinoblastoma survivor to share his story about childhood cancer.

“It’s jarring to most people because it’s so rare in little kids,” Katie said. “One in five children die, but two-thirds have lifelong chronic ailments.”

His parents send their thanks for supporting kids like their son and giving them hope for a healthy future.

Instead of attending a specialty school setting, Matthias attends early childhood classes at Stony Creek Elementary School.

“We wanted to keep him in the community.

We want him to go to school with his friends and be in the community as much as possible,” Craig said.

While he is only there half a day, Matthias has become a superstar at Stony Creek. The school recently raised $2,421.25 in two weeks, which it donated to St. Baldrick’s in Matthias’ honor.

“Mathias is an amazing little boy with such a fun spirit for adventure! He can always put a smile on your face with his witty comments,” Stony Creek Principal Heidi Karst said. “There is not a barrier that will ever hold him back from anything he wants to do.”

FROM THE BACKSHOP Suddenly, the skies are not too friendly

Stop child abuse It is our position that immediate action should be taken if a child is suspected of being abused or neglected. Today ends National Child Abuse Prevention Month, though the community should remain under constant vigil.

In just a year, 40 Hoosier children died from abuse and neglect, according to a recent report by the state Dept. of Child Services.

The report indicated that unemployment, low income, substance abuse and domestic violence are factors in many child-abuse deaths. The report also found a pattern of child deaths at the hands of parents’ intimate partners, which is a trend that has continued year to year. DCS says it is asking parents to think carefully about with whom they leave their children.

“When you have a child, and particularly a small child, left in the care of someone with no emotional bond with the child, with low to no parenting skills, and managing multiple stressors, tragedy can happen in an instant,” said John Ryan, DCS chief of staff.

The department is asking that everyone do their part to help protect kids. Pay attention and reach out if you need help or know someone who might.

To report abuse, call the Indiana state hotline at 800-800-5556. Parents, if you need help, call 1-800-CHILDREN.

A matter of perspective Commentary by Terry Anker In conversation today with a local businessman who is preparing to celebrate his 47th wedding anniversary, our attention turned to his advice in maintaining long-term relationships.

As he smiled, he said it was by making the right choice at the beginning. In his firmly Hoosier selfdeprecating way, he went on to credit much of the success of their longevity to his bride. “What a good guy,” I thought. But as my sympathetic interrogatory continued, his detailed answers pointed to something else. Certainly, he had entered a relationship with someone who is committed to relationships. Such a move is always a good thing. But more, he carried into the relationship a strong understanding of the importance of perspective in human interaction.

Even as we peer down from our vantage point, it is easy to forget that there are countless other outlooks from which to gaze. Imagine the scores of interpersonal interactions that take place every day – at the office, at the coffee

counter, with our families. During the course of the many petty irritations and follies that seem to fill our daily routines, it is striking to consider that there are innumerable other lives filled each with its own peccadilloes and interests.

How do people perceive us? Do they even notice that we exist? Is our imagined slight an entirely unintended consequence? Or, are the nefarious perpetrating their own agendas against us?

Can we find comfort in the knowledge that no one can fully understand our point-of-view or invite us into theirs? Or, is this solitary personal isolation frightening? Maybe it’s a matter of perspective. Regardless, learning to get out of our own heads and imagine the view from across the table can only make us better for it.

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.

- Mark Twain

There has been a slew of reports in national media – print, electronic and social – in recent days about the politicization of budget cuts coming out of Washington. One in particular caught our attention, and that dealt with flight delays (departures and arrivals, naturally) as a result of the furloughing of air traffic controllers.

It should be noted that while travelers were cooling their heels - and presumably trying to stifle their rising tempers on long layovers in overcrowded departure lounges - at many major airports, the U.S. Dept. of Transportation announced a $474-million grant program that promises to “make communities more livable and sustainable.”

That’s. Just. Dandy.

We can cut highly trained and supervised staff, whose responsibility it is to keep the friendly skies all the more friendly, and foist upon the remaining personnel and supervisors an increased burden of undertaking even a larger part of one of the most stressful jobs known to man. But, hey, when there’s a chance to dump hundreds of millions of dollars into “sustainability,” well, that seems to be a no-brainer - for the brainless in Washington.

It seriously continues to amaze us that not too many have vigorously spoken out about the furloughs. Think of it this way: Would you want yourself or your loved one strapped into a jetliner traveling at 400-plus miles per hour under the “watchful” eyes of an overstressed, exhausted ATC employee? We know the answer, but we had to ask. To us, it’s really frightening. Until the staffing levels have been brought back to realistic levels – sorry, airlines – we’re not going to travel by air; it’s all road trips until then.

By the way, did anyone on Capitol Hill or in the White House administration even suggest cutting President Barack Obama’s golf fees from the budget? Didn’t think so.

Please return my money

Editor, I was at the Carmel/Westfield Marsh store on Sunday, and I requested $50 back on my debit card. It had been a long Reader’s view day, and I forgot to take the money. I called Marsh about 10 minutes later and spoke to a very accommodating manager. He watched the video and a person who came in after me took the money, knowing that it belonged to someone else who would come looking for it.

I have called the police and, with the help of

the picture, this person will be caught. To prevent this person from being embarrassed and getting into trouble, I am hoping that the money will be left at the customer service counter in an envelope with my name on it. No questions asked, and I will truly appreciate the honesty.

It is extremely upsetting, but, as I have a very forgiving nature, I will chalk this up to someone who was having a bad day and decided to make it better at the expense of someone else. I am hoping that this person did not think this through.

Schools matter, not mass transit

Celebrate National Women’s Health Week May 12-18.

Riverview Hospital encourages women like you to make your health a priority. During the week of May 12-18, take steps toward a healthier, happier life by participating in a check-up, preventative screening or educational seminar.

Appointments are limited, so make your reservations early by calling (317) 776-7247.

Health Screenings* • CT Calcium Heart Scan - $49 • CT Lung Scan - $99 • Dexa Bone Density Screening - $79 • Screening Mammogram - insurance will be billed

Educational Seminar Women After 40: Midlife Transitions Tuesday, May 14, 6-7 pm Riverview Hospital, Krieg DeVault Conference Room (Entrance 11)

Dr. Polly Trainor addresses women’s health-related topics such as osteoporosis, hormone therapy, heart health and even having a baby later in life. A light dinner will be served.

Event is free, but registration is required. *Pre-registration and payment is required for screenings. Qualifying guidelines may apply.

Editor, Recently, I received yet another request from the Metropolitan Indianapolis Board of Realtors for my support of mass Reader’s view transit. MIBOR has never reached out to ask my opinion of mass transit, just instructed me to follow the company line.

I will not support mass transit, or support raising taxes for mass transit. I have the privilege of living in Hamilton County, where the schools have had a very positive effect on our property values. Proof enough for me to believe in the power of good schools.

Good schools help increase property values and decrease crime rates. For that reason, I’m

struggling to understand why MIBOR is so bent on supporting mass transit. It will absolutely raise property taxes, won’t improve schools, increase property values or reduce crime, all the things a Realtor should be concerned about.

Improving the IPS Schools would have a direct impact on the value of homes and the lives of the families we serve. Indianapolis Schools rank 287 out of 313 school districts in Indiana.

Why doesn’t MIBOR take up the cause of better schools?

According to MIBOR statistics, 25 percent of buyers ranked the quality of a school district as most important while only 6 percent ranked the convenience of public transportation as important.

I hate it, but I have to

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Recently I’ve noticed a strange occurrence.

My stomach will begin to hurt after I’ve been sitting for any length of time. At first, humor I thought it was too-tight jeans, but then I realized the pain would arrive with any number of pants or skirts that fastened at the waist. Conclusion: my clothes are shrinking!

I suppose there is another explanation for this disturbing phenomenon: I might possibly, perhaps, be gaining an ever-so-slight bit of weight; which would make sense because I basically stopped all forms of exercising after I survived the mini-marathon last May. True, I do attend weekly geriatric yoga and occasionally walk the dog around our basketball goal, but for my body type, the lack of aerobic activity is finally starting to show.

And what really ticks me off is that the pounds aren’t going where I need them most.

My face and chest could actually stand to be a little plumper, while my thighs and behind are already plenty large. But nooooo, become a couch potato and the new fat immediately heads for his friends.

The only solution (besides giving up my nightly cherry pop tart and glass of milk, and that ain’t gonna happen) is to start an exercise program, but I’m seriously lacking the motivation.

I already ran the marathon and took on P90X.

And my clothes do still fit, albeit a little more snuggly. Plus, I have to consider two significant physical defects: my crappy knees and reduced bladder control. No jumping jacks for this girl!

Swimming is a great option, but laps in a pool are so high maintenance. Drying and de-frizzing my ginger hair alone can take a full 30 minutes!

Who’s got the time for that? Speaking of time, a serious “lack thereof” is another one of my excuses. For me, working out has to occur in the morning, because once evening hits, my life revolves around kids and husband and wine. But I hate waking up early, especially to [gulp] exercise.

Regardless, I must think of something. I’ve always been in good shape and like knowing that when the Zombie Apocalypse comes, I’ll be able to run for the hills (or cornfields). Right now, I’d barely reach the nearest round about before collapsing in a pile of stretch marks and hyperventilation. I suppose I could start with some hard-core walking; maybe throw in some light dumbbells to tighten the ol’ triceps. It’s not glamorous, but if it’ll help me outrun a dead person and keep clothing from cutting off my circulation, I’m in. Power walking, here I come!

Peace out.

No actual crickets are involved Commentary by Mike Redmond

Baseball season is here and so our thoughts turn to cricket, a game that is just like baseball except for the myriad ways in humor which it is not.

Cricket jumps up, so to speak, because there is a movement underway (as opposed to underfoot) to make Indianapolis, a city familiar to most of us, the Cricket Capital Of The World. This would only add to the luster of a city already known as the Euchre and Pork Tenderloin Sandwich Capital.

Of course, the 14 people in Indianapolis who understand and like cricket are thrilled. The rest of us are mystified, which seems the only reasonable reaction.

To Americans raised on a sports diet of baseball, basketball, football and hockey, cricket is the sort of thing that causes headaches if you try to figure it out for yourself. Here are some things you need to know about cricket: 1. It is not baseball. We’ve covered this already.

2. The teams consist of 11 players on each side. Positions include the bowler, the catcher, wicket keeper, long stop, slips, right bower, left out, guy over here, guy over there, upper and lower squamish, and designated jiminy (American League only).

3. It is the only game named after a bug. It

chose this unusual name because all the good ones (horse racing, cards, Steve) were already taken.

4. To the untrained eye, a match looks as if one person throws the ball in a most peculiar galloping overhand motion, and a man wielding a fraternity paddle tries to hit it back at him, after which people clap politely. It also looks this way to the trained eye.

5. No actual crickets are involved.

OK, time out, or whatever they say in cricket.

Let me clear up a couple of things. I know there are more than 14 people in Central Indiana who like cricket. In fact, it’s a tribute to our growing international community that this Cricket Capital Of The World idea even took root. Great for us that we have such interesting people who have come to live among us, and I mean it.

So here’s to you, Central Indiana cricket hopefuls. I hope your fast bowlers come through and your batsmen guide the good length balls to wherever they’re supposed to go and wickets are taken. Play ball, have at it, chirp, or whatever it is you crickets say.

Vegetables can be the stars Commentary by Claudia Pierson When we think of grillget cooking ing, we immediately think of meats and fish it seems.

Yet, there is a whole world of wonderful grill options for the other parts of the meal. Hope you will enjoy these unique recipes.

107 S. 8th Street Noblesville

Grilled vegetable salad

serves 4-6 You may skewer the veggies or place directly on grill.

Ingredients: 1 cup gorgonzola cheese, 1 yellow and 1 red pepper - sides cut and halved, 6 quartered Yukon gold potatoes, 1 sweet potato in large cubes, 1 leek quartered lengthwise, 1 bunch asparagus trimmed, 1 yellow squash cubed Marinade/dressing: 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup dry white wine, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon fresh diced tarragon, 1 tablespoon diced sage, 1 tablespoons diced rosemary, Salt and pepper Directions: Marinate vegetables for about 15 minutes in half of the mixture. Shake off excess dressing and grill until slightly charred – about 15 minutes. Place in large bowl and toss with remaining dressing and gorgonzola cheese. Serve immediately.

Cooking tip: Close the lid on your grill when you are finished - it will make the clean up easier.

Also, place any peppers you have on the grill and allow them to stay there as the grill cools for 1 ½ to 2 hours. They will be perfectly roasted and ready for the next meal.

Grilled Peaches with Honey Chevre

serves 8 Ingredients: 4 fresh peaches halved and pitted, 6 ounces chevre, 2 tablespoons milk, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon vanilla (you may also use brandy), 1 cup toasted almonds Directions: Combine chevre, milk and honey in a bowl - do not over stir.

Still time for bathing-suit season Commentary by April Conard All the snow has melted and the sun is trying to show it’s lovely rays. But, all you can think is; “Why didn’t I start working out in January?” Don’t let the fear of the coming warm fitness seasons have you retreating into a moo moo just yet. Don’t give up before you even start, there is still time! I know how to help you see results soon.

I am referring to interval training. Interval training is an excellent way to burn more calories, build endurance quickly and add interest to your workouts. Interval training involves alternating high-intensity exercise with recovery periods.

There are a variety of ways to set up interval workouts. One option is timed periods of work followed by timed periods of rest. An example would be one minute of high-intensity work (such as a sprint), followed by two minutes of low-intensity exercise (walking) and alternating that several times for 15 to 30 minutes.

Another option is instead of using time for measurement, use objects. You might power walk or run to the stop sign and recover walk or jog to the mailbox.

Interval training can be done with just about any exercise, not just running. If you are exercising on an Elliptical machine, raise the level of intensity for a short amount of time and then lower the intensity until you “recover” and repeat this process.

Your recovery time should only be a few minutes.

You should be able to breathe easily, however; if it takes you 10 minutes to speak, dial back the intensity.

You are in charge of the intervals and how hard you push. This method of training is more effective at inducing fat loss than simply training at a moderate intensity level for the same duration. This is due to the metabolism boosting effects of high-intensity intervals. The idea is to work harder than usual in your “work” sets and to fully recover during the low intensity intervals.

Interval training is a great way to increase results and burn more calories. So, don’t throw in the beach towel just yet. Give interval training a try and not only be ready for summer but look forward to it!

I’m a terrible flyer and it seems to get worse every year, every flight. I clinch the seat in front of me and brace myself with the Advice seatbelt as tight as I can pull it. When the plane touches the ground, I feel a sweet release and my entire body uncoils. Every flight is the same. As soon as the wheels leave the ground, any calmness turns to clamminess.

I have a strategy for flying, really for all emotions, that often works. The underlying concept is you are emotional when you aren’t being rational, so you have to be more rational. Emotions don’t involve thinking; they are feelings. When you think, you can generally dismantle feelings.

When I get mad, I ask myself tough questions that make me think. When I’m sad, I pose hard questions to find the source. As I move from only feeling to thinking, I find greater calmness in my rational thoughts.

That’s my strategy for flying: get thinking and curb the emotions.

until I find thoughtful conversation.

I met a fellow on a recent flight. He runs a website for a news group. We started talking about how some people comment on news articles with crushing force, being mean and taking shots. It’s not everyone of course, but there are a lot of people that do. Is it the anonymity that drives it or is there really a bunch of mean people out there that mask it when you meet them in person?

We settled on this; people are nicer to one another in person. There’s increased accountability and, after all, it’s harder to dislike people when you are face to face with them. It’s an easy thing to forget in business too, things go better when you meet with people face to face. I guess it’s all full circle as that’s what put me on the plane to begin with.

What brings you happiness?

Commentary by Kristen Boice

What does happiness mean to you? Does it mean peace, loving and accepting yourself, stepping into your Relationships worth or something else? Stop and really think about the question. Figuring this out can be extremely powerful and life changing.

Is happiness about achievements, stuff, money, beauty or how many likes you have on your Facebook status updates? Maybe it is about helping others, growing, learning, giving back, living out your purpose, feeling good about who you are, making a contribution and difference in the world by showing up and being you, or living with intention.

We live in a society that encourages us to buy into materialism, beauty, wealth, fame, moving to the top and how many friends you have on Facebook. We think this is the way to happiness. We think this will bring us happiness, worth and importance. Ultimately, we end up in a black hole because it never is enough. We end up not feeling important, good enough or adequate. There are many people who appear to have it all, yet they are miserable.

Here are a few suggestions when reflecting on the topic of happiness.

1. Explore your vision for happiness.

What would happiness look like? Would it be more about self-acceptance, forgive-

ness, letting go and having more inner peace? Would it be living out your purpose?

2. Surround yourself with people that are encouraging. It is important that we have some cheerleaders in our lives that mirror back to us our worth for simply being who we are. When we look at a baby, they are pure souls with no layers. We are all inherently worthy. We just may not believe it based on our past.

3. Get vulnerable with safe people. It is essential to be able to stand in our power and speak our truth with love and grace.

Connection comes from opening up and really sharing who we are with others. It is the heartbeat to joy.

4. Be a giver, not a taker. There are people that give from their heart and there are people that suck energy out of a room.

Show up and give. It is a life changer.

5. Change your thoughts. If you feel like you are unworthy, notice what you are telling yourself. It probably comes from the past. When we work on changing how we see ourselves, we gain more selfacceptance and greater peace.

Question: “What are your thoughts about use of the (nonexistent) word ‘preventional’ on page 1 of Current in Carmel last GRAMMAR GUY week? It’s not in Webster’s app, at least not for iPhone.” (Becky Rainsberger, Carmel) Answer: Well Becky, to be honest I hadn’t had any thoughts about “preventional” prior to your question. Obviously, the word we’d expect there is “preventative,” or even “preventive.” I did find an entry for “preventional” in a 1913 edition of a dictionary … but since I found no others, we’ll just call it non-standard at best.

Since I’m prone to tangents, your question got me interested in the reasoning behind why certain words receive certain suffixes as they transform from verbs to nouns or nouns to adjectives/adverbs. After all, while “prevention” gains an “-ative” or “-ive,” “convention” becomes “conventional,” while “attention” follows the former pattern and becomes “attentive.” It’s really more a question of etymology than grammar, but it’s my column, so you’re following me down the rabbit hole.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a consistent rule for selecting a suffix. Instead, I dug into the meanings of each suffix to attempt to extract a reasoning behind the apparent disparity above.

When used with an adjective/adverb, as is the case above, the suffix “-al” signifies relation. For example, a tuba is a “music-al” instrument. The

suffix “-ative” or “-ive” signifies that an object has the nature or quality of whatever the root word is. For example, glue is an “adhes-ive” – by its very nature it exhibits the quality of adhesion (i.e., it binds surfaces together and resists separation).

While these two suffixes seem similar at first, we can observe why they are different. A tuba isn’t “musica-tive” for two reasons: First, “musicative” isn’t a word. Second, a tuba is not, by its nature, composed of music. It is composed of brass. You could say that an opera is “musicative” (if it were a word, that is) because an opera is, by its nature, music. An opera cannot be not musical; its nature would be fundamentally different.

The same logic applies to “preventative.” Brushing your teeth is a preventative step to avoid cavities; the action is, by its nature, a hindrance or impediment to tooth decay (i.e., “prevention”).

The list of English suffixes is enormous, and I don’t have the time or space to examine them all (although I did find out that “numisma” means “coin,” as in “numismatics:” the study or collection of currency). I encourage you to do a little studying on your own time, though (right after you clean out the garage and finally get around to sorting your record collection).

Greetings from High Point, North Carolina, home of the largest home furnishings market in the world where an optimistic economic psyche is apparent. design For six marathon days, this sleepy town extends small-town hospitality to more than 80,000 home furnishing retailers and designers as they preview the trends for the next six months of the home interior industry.

This semi annual event is the ultimate gaze into the crystal ball of home furnishing trends.

A kaleidoscope of color has exploded and offers a much needed reprieve from the sullen grays of the past few years. Cleaner and more vibrant, these hues explode in room settings.

Orange and lavender are the stars and are being paired with sapphire, teal and sunshine yellow. These unorthodox combinations might not be as appealing if we weren’t starving for an optimistic change.

Leather, dyed in unexpected colors, continues to punctuate room vignettes.

Large scale geometrics dominate the pattern

dressed for panache by a mélange of pillow patterns and colors that tie-accent chairs.

Details are now works of art with nail heads that create a pattern and broad tapes that provide the essential interest detail.

Linen is still a contender as a fabric choice, but the color choices far exceed the generic natural of last year.

Quality, in spite of pricing, outshines the cheaper stepsister pieces. When a pattern is lined up with precision, you know that the craftsmen is versed in how to do it right.

While transitional style with sleek silhouettes reigns, it is more sophisticated with the inclusion of inlaid marquetry and rich wood finishes. The new richness allows a smooth transition into a traditional décor.

Expect to see these trends make their presence known immediately in online design blogs and within weeks from local retail sources.

world while broad tapes have overshadowed fringe. Chevron patterns are still dizzyingly popular in bold hues and rhythmic arabesque patterns are the up-and-coming star.

Kitchen remodel creates an open four-seasons space

Commentary by Larry Greene

ORIGINAL KITCHEN: Originally built in 1982, this home is located on the first lot sold on Geist Reservoir. The current owners are the original homeowners, and the husband is a retired local custom homebuilder. blueprint for WHY REMODEL? The original kitchen was improvement U-shaped and fit into a narrow space with a breakfast area. French doors led to a three-season porch overlooking the water. The homeowners felt it was time to remodel the space and to convert the porch into a four-season sunroom. “Floor plans have changed,” said the homeowner. “It used to be that there were more walls. Everything is more open now. Also, the original kitchen was nearing the end of its life, and we were tired of the oak cabinets. We also felt that we would get more use out of a sunroom than a porch.”

NEW SUNROOM SPACE WITH BUMP OUT: The goal of the design was to create an open floor plan for the kitchen area. The plans called for removing the porch and building a sunroom addition fully open to the remodeled kitchen. Visual access to the water was a priority as well. The sunroom was cantilevered off the original foundation walls, as its footprint was larger than the original porch.

All new framing was required, and large windows were installed. A wood beam spanned the new opening from the kitchen to the sunroom.

Before

After FINAL RESULT: As a former custom homebuilder, the homeowner had an eye for the details. “We wanted cherry cabinets and a more traditional style. We really like the granite we chose, as it blends with the cabinets yet it is light. With all of the windows being on one side of the room, dark countertops would have been too dark. The tile design over the range works well too. Our favorite part of the remodel is the sunroom. We use it all the time, and we are enjoying our view more.”

One of those days?

Help is just around the corner.
