Fox said a number of the physician practices are going to extend hours to provide medical care before and after work.

• While development is coming, Fox addressed curiosity about Riverview Health’s plans for its overflow parking lot on Ind. 32.

“We’re always looking for opportunities to develop things, so conceptually we know we need to look at that property. Right now our priority has been the Westfield (U.S. 31-Ind. 32) structure,” Fox said.

Development to benefit neighbors

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Before building on a single lot, Trailside Woods is already making friends with its neighbors. The 41 single-family home project is addressing an environmental issue council that has plagued that area for decades - flooding.

“I’ve been there for 49 years and been fighting the water problem the entire time,” said Sam Trump, who lives adjacent to the property.

“We have no relief.”

There is drainage issues with the property, which collects water from U.S. 32 and Hazel Dell Elementary School runoffs. Civil engineer Ed Hamilton said larger pipes, culverts, ponds and sewer lines will correct the issue and the development is trying to attract water from nearby properties to provide relief.

“There are serious drainage concerns with the property, but I think they are addressed now,” councilor Jeff Zeckel said.

The 41-lot project is 22 acres, including 11 heavily-wooded acres, off Ind. 32, just east of Gray Road and immediately adjacent to Hazel Dell Elementary and the Midland Trace Trail, and serve as an extension to Slater Ridge, a similar subdivision to the south.

Amenities to the development include woods, a gazebo, a community meeting area that surrounds a fire pit, nature trails through the woods, a small boardwalk over a water detention basin, a rain garden and a storm water pond.

Developers said each home would be at least 2,200 square feet and prices are expected to range from $350,000 to $500,000. Homes are expected to be available early next year.

other items of business • The common council approved funding an additional $75,000 for the facade grant improvement program. Economic development specialist Alaina Shonkwiler said the program has received two grants this year, each asking for the maximum $25,000 matching grant. Since November 2007, the city has awarded 45 grants totaling $622,608.48 in public funds and matched by $820,828.33 in private investment.

• Habitat for Humanity of Hamilton County received no charge for fees associated with the residences at 1803, 1805 and 1876 Cherry Street. Because of laws, the city cannot waive the fees but has elected to pay for them instead of charging the nonprofit. The total of the building, driveway, sewer connection, road impact and park impact fees was $7,488.65.

Children aged 3 to 5 hunt for eggs at Forest Park. (File photo)

The hunt begins March 28

Staff Report • news@currentnoblesville.com

With spring just around the corner, everyone is ready to get outside and celebrate. One option for families with children is the anEaster nual free Easter egg hunt hosted by the Noblesville Parks Dept. and Hare Chevrolet. On March 28, head over to shelters 3 and 5 at Forest Park (701 Cicero Road, Noblesville) for fun, candy, a visit from the Easter Bunny and more.

Aaron Portman, who runs the event, says this annual hunt has been going on for quite a while.

“At least 20+ years,” she said. “It’s been around for a very long time.”

The Easter Egg Hunt is the star of the show.

Children up to 10 years old are invited to participate.

“It goes really fast,” Portman said, despite the quantity of Easter eggs. “We put out 10,000 prefilled eggs.”

Most are filled with candy, but there are some prize eggs too.

“Each age group will have the opportunity to win some prizes,” Portman said, adding the prizes include ice cream coupons and even the chance to win a bike. “There’s a wide range of prizes … a little bit of everything.”

There are many fun activities offered at the hunt including a DJ, a bounce house, and an appearance from the Easter Bunny for pictures. The Forest Park Carousel also will be open, weather permitting, for a $2 charge per child to ride.

“Activities start at 10 a.m. and run until noon,” Portman said.

Prior to the hunt, families are invited to attend a pancake breakfast hosted by the Noblesville Sunrisers Kiwanis at the Forest Park Inn from 8 to 10:30 a.m. The meal includes pancakes, sausages, juice, coffee and milk. Tickets are $5 per person and may be purchased at the door.

Proceeds will benefit a children’s charity.

ISSMA only selects nine show choir groups from across Indiana to compete at this level and to qualify choirs must be top scorers at prequalification competitions.

Hamilton County Ag Day celebrates 29 years Twenty-three hundred second-graders and their teachers visited 12 educational displays including agricultural products and live animals as Hamilton County celebrated its 29th annual Ag Day. Students from 21 schools from Noblesville, Carmel, Westfield, Fishers and Hamilton Heights visited the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds in Noblesville during the three-day event. Displays included information on corn, soybeans, wheat, beekeeping, soil and water conservation, drones in agriculture and more. Animal production and animal by-products were explained with the use of beef, goats, horses, llamas, poultry, rabbits, sheep and swine. Presentations to the students were made by 4-H members. “Since many Hamilton County residents are now three or more generations removed from the farm, Ag Day provides students with a close up, hands-on exposure to agriculture that they would not have otherwise had the opportunity to experience,” said Lisa Hanni, Purdue Extension Hamilton County program assistant.

WHAT TO EXPECT: Options to Resolve Your Case Prior to Trial In family law, a majority of cases settle outside of the courtroom.

There are many reasons to attempt to reach a settlement, including uncertainty as to the judge’s decision, anxiety about testifying in court, the potential to increase animosity between the parties, and the attorney’s fees associated with attending a hearing. It is common for a party to never step foot inside of a courtroom because the parties reach an Agreement on all terms without the requiring the court’s intervention. There are two primary methods to reach an out-of-court agreement: informal negotiations and mediation. Informal negotiations involve communication between the parties and/or their counsel concerning the terms of a final agreement. This process involves communication as to the terms of a final agreement without the assistance of a third party (a mediator or judge). In some instances, the parties may be able to reach an agreement on the general terms of an agreement and engage counsel to assist with the finalization of those terms to ensure approval by the court. In other cases, counsel for the parties will exchange proposals and draft agreements in an attempt to reach a resolution.

intensive and focused settlement negotiations. The Mediator’s role is to assist the parties in their attempt to reach common ground by addressing certain considerations as to an anticipated reasonable outcome in court as well as other realistic and pragmatic concerns with any proposed settlement. There are instances where parties do not reach an agreement during mediation. In that case, a final hearing is the next step as the mediator does not have the authority to order the parties to comply with certain terms or reach a final agreement.

In the event parties are unable to reach an Agreement through informal negotiations, mediation is a common next step.

Mediation may be agreed upon by the parties or ordered by the court. At mediation, the parties are typically placed in separate rooms with their counsel and the Mediator serves as the neutral third party who exchanges proposals between the parties in

A recent trend in family law is for parties to engage in a collaborative divorce process. In such instances, parties are focused on reaching a collaborative agreement and hire respective counsel trained to do so. The process is similar in many respects to informal negotiations and mediation, with the ultimate goal of reaching an agreeable settlement. One different aspect of the collaborative law process is that in the event parties are unable to reach a settlement, they must hire new counsel and begin the process anew.

Advanced education NHS senior Juan Armendariz named Indiana high school intern of the year

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

A laugh and smile is the first thing that comes from Noblesville High School senior Juan Armendariz when asked about his knowledge about cover story Noblesville’s largest employer SMC Corporation.

“I had never heard about SMC before the (industry) tour and I live right across the street,” he said. “It’s a huge building but it’s just so quiet and calm no one pays attention to it.”

Armendariz, who now spends 24-25 hours a week at SMC now, recently won the Indiana Intern of the Year in the high school division.

“There are so many students out there. It was exciting to hear my name called out,” he said. “It’s a fantastic company.”

Armendariz’s recommendation came from SMC. “Juan conducts himself in such a manner as to convey confidence and poise under pressure of deadlines,” SMC wrote in his nomination. “Juan’s knowledge of the orderfill process has also allowed him to build rapport with the order filling leadership, thus allowing him the freedom to research issues as they arise and follow through to resolution.”

Frank Rivera, SMC manager of the central warehouse, said the company has 14 students this year interning.

“Juan demonstrated those leadership skills early on,” he said. “His learning curve was short. Juan stood out that he could do a little bit more things … We rely on him with little to no direction.”

Armendariz credits his teachers and administrators at the school for getting him interested in an internship.

“Ms. (Beth) Meguschar would take juniors around to different facilities – hospitals, Gaylor, construction – SMC was one of the options and I was interested in SMC the most,” he said. “I’m also taking classes where we had SMC managers and supervisors come by and talk about their facility.”

Armendariz interns on the warehouse and production side of the facility.

‘In the production area, I’ve pretty much been placed with mechanical engineers, machinery. I’ve gone through the whole assembly process with cylinders. Everyone always asks me what the cylinders do. It’s more for air pressure to open or close a prison or jail cells,” he said.

“At the warehouse it’s more running around, trying to find orders, expedite and consolidation, pick and pull and making sure the right orders come down the line.”

Armendariz said working is his favorite part of his internship.

“The workers always tell me they can’t believe I always come in here smiling,” he said. “I just enjoy one day working with a machinery worker and the next helping around and picking. I like moving around a lot and the opportunity to be at a variety of areas.”

“He has a positive attitude all the time. Here at school in classes teachers would tell you the same thing,’ said Susan Wiersema, NHS internship coordinator. “He has a

fantastic work ethic and attitude.”

In all, NHS has 165 students involved in business internships across the city.

“Juan is just one of those remarkable students,” Wiersema said. “He saw an interest as a junior and followed though and obviously has done a great job for us and SMC.” They hired him outside of his internship which speaks to his work ethic and obviously has done well as an intern there.”

Wiersema said students spend three hours every other day and 15 hours every two weeks at the internship.

Armendariz however, spends more time, approximately 24-25 part-time hours.

“After my internship I have a little time to myself and then head back there,” he said, adding he gladly volunteers to work on weekends. “I always try to work Saturdays. It starts at 6 a.m. and usually ends at noon. Those hours are optional but I thought what am I usually doing – just sleeping. I might as well come in and work.”

This summer Armendariz plans to intern with SMC’s human resources department, more specifically inside sales.

“I can have internships at the warehouse, production and office,” he said.

In the fall, Armendariz will take general classes in the fall at Ivy Tech.

“I’m interested in getting into robotics, automation and chemical engineering,” he said. “Those are the big three but right now I just want to see where I am after two years of college.”

Armendariz said his experience has provided him with a trade understanding that few of his peers possess.

“I think the internship program is very helpful during high school because it helps students, especially as a senior getting ready to go to college, improve their selfconfidence, work ability, problem-solving skills, responsibility and just leaving high school you are going to have those traits,” he said.

Age: 19 Hobbies: “I like to work and play soccer” Plans after graduation: “Summer internship at SMC Corporation and will attend Ivy Tech Community College” Favorite food: “My mom’s torta’s” Favorite class: “Advanced manufacturing, aerospace engineering, English and math.”

Favorite movie: “The Lion King” What he has learned the most through his internship: “That asking questions is the most important one when working at an environment like that.

Once you get used to the work you express your opinions out there on what they should do to get out an order or how to fix an order.”

The Noblesville High School internship program began in January 2013 with 22 students. Last school year, 87 seniors participated and that number doubled to 165 students this year. Susan Wiersema, internship coordinator, said the program provides high school seniors with a hands-on learning experience.

“Internships introduce students to the habits and value of work, while making connections between academic learning and its real-world application,” she said.

Wiersema said NHS is partnering with 43 local businesses.

“We have a lot of great partners,” she said. “The City of Noblesville has been fantastic and made my job easy because businesses have embraced the program and volunteered to have interns come into their businesses.”

Interested students take industry tours at potential internship sites as juniors. Businesses interested in partnering with NHS may contact Wiersema at susan_ wiersema@nobl.k12.in.us or call 773-4680 ext. 12262.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Can Cruz be the real deal?

Is Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) really that “scary,” as many members of the (liberal) media and Democratic Party have painted him? We don’t know. He is different; we’ll allow that. Cruz has been in the so-called limelight for all of two years, and after listening to his off-the-cuff campaign announcement (no Tele-Prompter for that guy) last week, here is what we came away with: He credits Jesus for fueling his father’s return to the family fold; we need to dump the IRS and ObamaCare; and the Common Core just needs to go away. On the first, who’s to refute it? As to the rest, we’re in; where do we sign up? But, really, could this be a case of a candidate rolling out his agenda and tailoring it for the audience? After all, he was at Liberty University, the prominent, private Christian institution of higher education in Lynchburg, Va. Maybe not, but we all should watch to see if he stays true as time goes by. Meanwhile, a haiku for Republican Party leadership: Election cometh Too many candidates now Can’t be serious We’ve seen the March Madness-style, Republican presidential-hopeful brackets on social media. It’s supposed to be funny, but it’s not.

The GOP leadership is so dysfunctional that it has a veritable Sweet Sixteen of candidates. If there’s a favorite – and many believe that after an exhaustive search, another Bush (this time, Jeb) will be the answer – it’s probably best to focus on him. Scott Walker (we still like him), Cruz and Mike Huckabee are there to further divide the party, and then throw in Rand Paul and Ben Carson, and possibly George Pataki and Lindsey Graham, among others, and the party could have a huge mess on its hands. But the GOP majors in huge messes. Look no further than the aftermath of Mitt Romney’s beatdown of President Barack Obama in the first of three president debates last election cycle. He had his man down, and he let him back up. We marvel at how Republicans continually screw up the proverbial two-car funeral.

Stone houses

Commentary by Terry Anker

The classic children’s book, The Three Little Pigs, teaches that wolves have an amazing lung capacity and that a stone house is better than a wooden or straw one. Stone houses last a long time. In Peru for a conference, it seemed imprudent to be in the South American country without making the trek to the famed, ancient city of Machu Picchu. The trip was replete with the challenges and peculiarities found so far off the beaten path – trains don’t run in some places during the rainy season due to frequent mud slides, locals drink a beer made from corn and strawberries (yes, it is pink) to wash down a meal of Guinea Pig (yes, the rodent), and central heat (let alone air conditioning) is a luxury beyond even the most deluxe hotels. But, the sheer beauty of the place and the ingenuity of the native people makes for a compelling journey.

The city, built as a retreat by the last of a long line of Inca (loosely translated as King), is believed to have taken many years and as many as

8,000 people to build. The permanent residents of 300 or so were doubled when the Inca and his entourage rolled into town. Engineers perfected stonework, water distribution, and agricultural terracing allowing for what must have been a high quality of life for the privileged few.

With the Spanish invasion, technologies like glass mirrors were introduced. While the Inca may have seen themselves for the first time, we see them only in the stone they left behind.

Like the Inca, the Spaniards did not believe in a shared culture. Maybe, those who live in stone houses shouldn’t throw glass. Ultimately temples were replaced with cathedrals and stone gave way to stucco. Even as we build great monuments, can we expect to enjoy them?

Q U O T E O F T HE W EEK We don’t grow older, we grow riper.

-Pablo Picasso

A while back I was on my way home from dropping a kid at dance/tae kwon do/volleyball/soccer and heard a blip for a nonprofit that organizes letters and care packages for American forces abroad. I’d been contemplating “adopting” a soldier for a while; my children often seem oblivious to anything outside our suburban bubble and could seriously use an injection of patriotism.

So I went to the group’s website, filled out the application and received a phone call from a delightful elderly lady about a week later.

She assigned us two troops, both stationed in Afghanistan, and explained the rules and expectations. Basically we needed to write once a week, send a care package once a month, and not divulge classified material or include porn. Done! I added the letter-writing to the chore chart and shared the news with the kids. They were less than thrilled.

“This is stupid!”; “They don’t care about our lives!”; “What do I even say?” Jeeze! Could they be anymore bratty? I suggested they talk about the Super Bowl, college basketball, their hobbies, the weather, how mean their mom is for making them do this. “It doesn’t matter what you write! Just let them know we are thinking of them.”

Hindering my cause was the fact that we never knew if our notes and “survival essentials” of National Enquirer, Skippy peanut butter and Axe deodorant were arriving. The lady had said the guys may not be able to write back, especially if they were running mountain ops, but she encouraged us to keep up the support. If nothing was returned, we could rest assured they were getting “the goods.”

Then just the other day, two months after our adoptions, three letters arrived from one of our troops, thanking the kids profusely for their efforts. He said he truly looked forward to his weekly “update.” We learned about his young daughter and that he’d be missing the birth of his second; and that he’s a Broncos fan and hates the Patriots.

Finally, my kids understood. This isn’t about adding an extra chore to their lists. This is about making a personal connection with a young soldier who is making sacrifices for them every single day, and about getting the chance to say “Thank you.”

We hope to hear from our other troop soon, but even if we don’t, it’s all good. I’ve already noticed a change in how my children view military personnel, and how they pay a little more attention to the news. “Write Letters” remains on the chart, but I’d argue my kids don’t see it as a chore anymore. Mission accomplished! Peace out.

Evan Lurie Gallery hosts artist Gorman

By David Nance • news@currentnoblesville.com

Artist Michael Gorman was hosted by the Evan Lurie Gallery at 30 W Main St. in Carmel earlier this month. Current sat down with Gorman for an interview during his visit. art Q: Tell us about your background.

A: I suppose I’ve never really been far away from art.

My mom is a great painter, so I was always around art. I went off to the military for four years right after high school, and I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. After I got out of the military I wanted to do architecture, went to college at the University of Kansas, and then moved over to industrial art and design.

Q: What led you to your career in painting” A: When I took a painting class, and that was it, I knew. My professor said that I should seriously consider making painting my major, so I did, and I ended up going to Berkley to get my master’s degree. I really never thought I would use my degree, but I did.

Q: What led to partnering with the Evan Lurie Gallery?

A: I met Evan Lurie and his brothers back in 1994, and I gave him some paintings I had left over from college, and they sold them all in a week. That was it. I got a call a few days after and they asked if I could make a few more of these paintings right

away, and offered me a studio, a car, and the money I needed to work. They set me up with everything I needed, and I’ve been working with them ever since. I think they’ve sold a couple thousand pieces of mine over the past 21 years.

Q: What mediums do you work with?

A: I use pretty much everything as my medium. I use alcoholbased, oil-based, and acrylic all together. Whatever you’re not supposed to do, like mix oil and water, that’s the first thing I do.

I find that I get a lot more interesting effects with that kind of conflict going on between the materials.

Q: How has your work evolved over the years?

A: Over the years, my style has evolved a lot. My style reverberates, and goes back and forth between lots of things. I paint in many genres, including cowboys, pop art, collage pieces or fond objects. Any excuse to make a painting. I’ll never run out reasons to make paintings. It’s impossible.

Q: What are you working on at the moment?

A: Right now I’m working on different works. There’s a painting of a blue bull, another with the Statue of Liberty, and more with some gunslingers and ballerinas. I have this thing going with cowboys and ballerinas, a contrast that I’m working on.

Beef & Boards dinner theater is always serving up performances at its northern Indianapolis location. Taking the stage in April the dinner-with-a-show venue will be featuring theater the five-time Tony Award winning musical, “The Drowsy Chaperone.”

The storyline involves a middle-aged theater buff who recalls his favorite musical, “The Drowsy Chaperone.” As he plays the musical’s record, the show comes to life featuring a wedding, gangsters, a theater producer and of course an intoxicated chaperone.

Beginning April 9, Beef & Boards will be hosting this classic, 1920’s themed performance. Based on the book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar, “The Drowsy Chaperone” blends the fun of a musical with the hilarity of a comedy.

“It’s basically a musical within a comedy,” choreographer and producer Ron Morgan said. “The show comes to life in the imagination of a musical theatre enthusiast. The music is really fun. The music is really in the 20’s sort of style and that period is so much fun to stage to and choreograph to so that’s really the appeal, I think, is the music.”

Morgan said that, for him, what separates “The Drowsy Chaperone” from other performances he’s produced are the comprehensive characters.

“I think what’s different about it is just it’s really defined characters that your working with,” he said. “It’s really over the top, defined characters in the 20’s and so it makes it actually really fun to work on because you have something more to go on. Its not just music it’s the characters and the story. The story really is those told through those production numbers because of how the show is written, so that’s why it’s more my cup of tea because as a director it comes from the production numbers and the choreography.”

Whip up of this new version of a deviled egg

Bacon-Balsamic Deviled Eggs (Submitted photo)

Ingredients: 12 eggs. 4 slices bacon. 1/2 cup mayonnaise. 1/4 cup minced red onion. 2 teaspoons white sugar. 1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar. 1/4 teaspoon celery salt. 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.

Directions: Place the eggs in a large pot in a single layer and fill with water to cover by 1 inch. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil; immediately remove from the heat and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Drain. Cool the eggs under cold running water in the sink.

Peel and halve lengthwise. Separate the yolks from the whites, placing the yolks in a bowl; arrange the egg whites with the rounded side down onto a serving platter. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes.

Drain on a paper towel-lined plate; chop. Mash the yolks with a fork. Add the bacon, mayonnaise, onion, sugar, vinegar, celery salt, and pepper; stir until thoroughly combined. Spoon the mixture into the egg whites. Garnish with parsley. Recipe makes 24 deviled eggs.

Hancock’s signature piece for Easter

Give yo ur ki ds a star ri ng ro le in life!

By Devynn Barnes • news@currentnoblesville.com It’s a story with which most are familiar, but with a modern and artistic twist. This Easter, you can relive the last week performance of Jesus’ life with all the color, music and movement characteristic of a Gregory Hancock production. “SUPERHERO: The Story of a Man Called Jesus” is a show set in “anytime and everyplace” that chronicles Jesus’ last week, and his relationships with Judas Iscariot, Mother Mary, Mary Magdalene and his disciples. Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre will have shows on April 3-4.

Kirsten Ferger, President of the Board of Directors for the dance company, says the show has been an audience favorite since the company debuted it eight years ago.

“It takes the characters that we know in the story and it gives the audience a very personal experience of what that week was like,” Ferger said. “It brings the story to a very human level.”

The show is a signature work of Gregory Hancock, who Ferger says is known for his ability to connect with the audience emotionally. He uses his company of world-class dancers as well as elaborate sets, lighting and music to create a show that’s exciting, but is also a respectful tribute to the story many people know and love.

“He is very aware that even though it’s his artistic retelling, he must consider the thoughts and feelings of who will be in his audience,” Ferger said.

The story is a classic, but what makes the show so unique is that it’s meant to be not time or place-specific. It can be interpreted as taking place anywhere at any point in history.

“Jesus’ story was about keeping kindness and love in every day,” Ferger said. “When you hear the story of the last week of Jesus, it’s always

put back in time 2000 years ago. Mr. Hancock wanted to bring that story alive as it happens every day.”

The perfect show for the Easter season, SUPERHERO will be at The Tarkington at The Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel April 3 and 4 at 7 p.m. Tickets can be purchased by calling 8433800 or online at www.thecenterfortheperformingarts.com.

Officials said with blacklight Zumba’s party atmosphere participants may not realize how much they are working out their legs, core and arms. (Submitted photo)

Working out in the dark

Staff Report • news@currentnoblesville.com

The Noblesville Athletic Club, 411 S. Harbour Dr., is offering a new way to get active and have fun at the same time. Every first Friday of the month from 7 to 8 p.m., NAC hosts a fitness blacklight Zumba dance party.

“Participants are encouraged to wear bright clothes that will glow (because of the blacklights),” said NAC Marketing Director Bobbi Maskew. “Participants are given glow bracelets at the door as well. It’s a fun time for all and has a party atmosphere. You can wiggle and jiggle, and best of all giggle, and no one sees you in the dark, so dance it off and have fun!”

Director of fitness April Conard said Zumba is for anyone.

“Zumba is a group fitness class that is for all walks of life,” she said. “It is an easy class to modify to your level of fitness. You do not have to be a dancer or even have rhythm as long as you like to have fun and move to the music. With

this party atmosphere you may not realize how much you are working your legs, core and arms.

With the energy and excitement you feel in this class, it is so easy to keep coming back and getting more in shape with every workout.”

No registration is required to attend and the cost is $5 with no charge for members.

“Zumba incorporates a variety of dance moves such as hip hop, salsa, meringue, etc ... The music really makes the class. It is a great overall workout and so much fun,” NAC General Manager Cindy Kinney said.

As well as blacklight Zumba, regular Zumba classes are offered several times a week for children and adults.

“Anyone is welcome to walk in and try any of our classes for a $5 guest fee or we have a one year special for $250 which includes all adult fitness classes and exercise equipment,” Maskew said.

For more information, call 776-0222 or e-mail nac@nacfitness.com.

QUESTION: “Dear Grammar Guy, is there a difference between ‘marinate’ and ‘marinade?’ I was flipping through a grammar guy cook book the other day and the author seemed to be a real stickler for those two words. It made me wonder. Thanks for responding!”

ANSWER: As grilling season will be fast upon us, this seems like a perfect time to jump into this one. Let’s get to it!

The big difference here is that “marinade” is a noun, while “marinate” is a verb.

A “marinade” is a sauce “in which meat or fish is soaked to add flavor” or to make more tender.

For some reason the dictionary discriminates against veggie-lovers here, but I don’t: go ahead and drop whatever you like into a marinade, vegetarian readers. I’m personally fond of dropping some bell peppers, onions and tomatoes into a

nice lemony marinade for kabobs.

Now I’m hungry … but, back to grammar!

To “marinate” is to put your meat or veggies of choice into the sauce. It’s as simple as that, really.

Now, before I draw the wrath of the culinary community upon me, there is a word used in the kitchen for soaking non-protein items in liquid – “mascerate.” It’s used primarily to mean softening fruit by steeping in a liquid. “Marinate” and “marinade” are perfectly acceptable for the rest of us, though.

That’s it! Now that our grammar question is settled, on to more gastronomic pursuits: grilling season is almost here!

The Garden and Gethsemane Commentary by Don Knebel During Passion Week, Christians around the world will rehear the story of Jesus’ agony in the “Garden of Gethsemane.” Travelers to travel Jerusalem can visit what is said to be the very garden. But whether Jesus ever set foot in that garden is far from certain.

Surprising to many Christians, the Bible never mentions a “Garden of Gethsemane.” The Gospels of Mark and Matthew report that Jesus shared a Passover meal with his disciples before going to “Gethsemane,” a corruption of Hebrew words literally meaning “wine press for oils,” where he prayed and was then betrayed by Judas. The Gospel of John says Jesus prayed with his disciples the night before Passover and was later betrayed by Judas in an unnamed “garden.”

From these accounts, some Christians concluded that Gethsemane was a garden, while others concluded Jesus prayed at the site of a wine press and then went to a garden.

Since the fourth century, Christians have identified multiple locations near the foot of the Mount of Olives matching their own conceptions of Gethsemane. The most popular site is a walled garden across the Kidron Valley from the Temple Mount.

claimed to cover the stone on which Jesus knelt while he prayed. At least three other locations on the Mount of Olives, including a cave said to have housed an ancient wine press, are also associated with the Biblical accounts of Jesus’ agony in Gethsemane. The traditional choices for Gethsemane are all near major first century roads crossing the Mount of Olives. Some scholars believe a secluded location north and east of traditional locations would be a more likely spot for someone seeking to pray.

For Christian visitors to Jerusalem, whether the traditional sites of Gethsemane are precisely the place of Jesus’s agony is irrelevant. Being in the vicinity of where Jesus prayed on the night before his crucifixion is close enough.

Creating an open, contemporary concept kitchen Commentary by Larry Greene EXISTING KITCHEN: Located in the Springmill Streams subdivision in Carmel, this 20-year-old kitchen had a choppy blueprint for layout that didn’t work improvement for the homeowners.

A large walk-in pantry monopolized too much space and divided the kitchen from the formal dining room. The homeowners’ dream was to create an open-concept layout for better flow and modernize the design for a more contemporary look.

REMOVING PANTRY: To create the desired open layout, the pantry and walls separating the kitchen from the dining room were eliminated.

As a result, the space now feels spacious and bright. In place of the pantry, a new desk was installed using maple cabinetry with a “Coco” finish. A Cambria “Torquay” countertop was chosen to contrast with the dark cabinetry.

TIEING IN DINING AREA: To compensate for lost storage from the terminated pantry, new contrasting cabinets with a “Polar” finish and a Cambria “Wellington” countertop were installed along the far dining room wall to store rarely used china and kitchen accessories. The new pantry wall also functions as a buffet for formal dinner parties.

MODERN DETAILS: The existing layout of the kitchen worked well; it simply needed to be modernized. The same two-toned cabinetry and

before & after

Cambria countertops from the desk and dining area were used for the kitchen perimeter wall and island for consistency. A separate beverage station was added to keep traffic out of the main prep area. The sleek stainless steel appliances and glass tile backsplash polish off the desired contemporary look.

CONNECTING KITCHEN WITH DINING ROOM: LED recessed can lights, under cabinet lighting and new pendants installed on dimmer switches adds visual interest and helps connect the two spaces. New hardwood flooring was installed throughout the main level to create a continuous look.

Seal Cove is a throwback horror story with just the right mix of contemporary humor, smarts, and monster gore. It’s an engaging novel that will have enthusiastic readers saying, “Finally, a horror story void of vampires, werewolves, or zombies!”

Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Available in paperback at Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.

www.divittowrites.com

RESULT: “We love having so much space to move about in the kitchen the most. Before the remodel, we never used the formal dining room.

The new layout allows us to use the entire space all the time.”
