City using trash fees for street, alley rehab

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com The City of Noblesville has announced a series of street rehabilitation projects, something city officials say is a direct result road work of the implementation of a trash fee.

This year’s list, which the city is calling “Making Moves,” totals approximately $2 million and has expanded, increasing approximately $500,000 over total spending in 2015. The projects are aimed at address what the city deems “the most necessary infrastructure needs within the city.”

“Noblesville’s Making Moves road-repaving and sidewalk-repair project for this summer is an intensified street rehabilitation effort funded by the revenues the city is able to capture from the recent change in the trash ordinance,” Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear said.

City Engineer John Beery said the trash ordinance change equates to approximately 25 percent more work being done to streets, sidewalks and alleys than previously planned.

“Over the past year, we have completely inventoried and reviewed the conditions of all our streets and alleys,” Beery stated. “Once each road is evaluated and graded, a street rehabilitation list is made based on priority and grouping the work to be the most efficient with our budget. We make every effort to address the areas that are most in need.”

The Noblesville Engineering Dept. has awarded three contracts for infrastructure work throughout the city. Resurfacing projects include South Ninth Street, Pebble Brook Village, South Harbour,

East Harbour, Lakecrest, Morse Lake Estates, 196th Street, Hague Road and Carrigan Road.

Other projects include the replacement of sidewalks in the Southwest Quadrant. Concrete sidewalk installation on Little Chicago Road, north of Carrigan Road; Allisonville Road, north of Field Drive to Fairfield Farms; and on Maple Street in front of the Public Safety Building, along with alley approaches in Old Town.

The fourth project will involve alley paving in Old Town. Beery said although final locations are still pending, it is expected that alley paving locations will be in the same general areas in which alley approaches are being replaced.

Construction is expected to begin after the Fourth of July holiday. Signs will be placed onsite approximately one week before construction begins, and mailings will be sent to affected homeowners.

City officials say this construction will cause minor inconveniences including traffic delays, temporary loss of street parking, construction noise and access restrictions.

“Funds that are now available to the city have been dedicated to improving the downtown infrastructure and tree replacement program, increasing support of law enforcement and their crime prevention efforts, intensifying funding of road repaving and sidewalk repair throughout the city and replenishing the County Option Income Tax fund,” a press release from the city stated.

Project status and updates will be reported via the city’s social media feeds. For more, contact the Noblesville Engineering Dept. at 317-776-6330.

State begins ‘Major Moves’ work on Exit 210, I-69 news@currentnoblesville.com On June 22, Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear joined Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, Senator Jim Merritt and the Indiroads ana Dept. of Transportation, along with other local leaders to kick off construction on a $92 million project to modernize I-69 in Hamilton and Madison counties.

The project, as part of the Governor’s Major Moves 2020 program, will widen 15 miles of I-69 from Ind. 37 in Fishers to Ind. 38 in Pendleton. The project also will reconfigure I-69’s Exit 210 at Campus/ Southeastern Parkway in Noblesville into a double-crossover diamond.

“Here in the Crossroads of America, we know that roads mean jobs,” Pence said.

“Along this section of I-69, we’ve seen tremendous economic development, and it is vital that we modernize this portion of the highway to ensure continued economic growth. My administration has invested nearly $3 billion in roads and bridges across Indiana since I became governor, and I firmly believe that by continuing to invest in infrastructure, we can make Indiana the best place in America to start a business, grow a business and create jobs.”

City taking part in Justin Timberlake music-video trend

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com The City of Noblesville has announced its production of a Noblesville spin on a summer viral trend. entertainment Cities and organizations across the nation have danced their way to internet stardom to singer Justin Timberlake’s newest single, “Can’t Stop the Feeling.”

Videos across YouTube and Facebook have portrayed everyday folks representing their cities, often dancing in landmark places throughout town. Locally, places like Wellbrooke of Westfield, Carmel Indiana Dancers and the City of Tipton have made their own videos.

Noblesville is asking for the help of the community in creating its own, including businesses, organizations and residents, to join in on the filming. Various city departments will film a small portion of the video, including Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear, but the rest of the video will be submitted by the public or filmed at citywide events like the Noblesville Street Dance July 9. Filming has already taken place at Noblesville Utilities and at the June 23 Summer Concert Series.

“Noblesville is a fun place to live, work and

play and this video will be our way to show the world why we love Noblesville and how much fun it is to be here,” Mayor John Ditslear stated. “We want to highlight the community – its people and places – in reply to JT’s

challenge.”

“We’ve seen other cities go viral with their videos and have an amusing time doing so. That’s what we hope to achieve with this video, spreading the word of Noblesville

with a smile on our face,” said Communications Manager Robert Herrington. “We hope to get as many local videos as we can to truly showcase our diverse community. Taking just a few minutes for a short recording could land you in the final video.”

The city has asked that those interested in submitting videos should follow these guidelines: • Film horizontally at the highest resolution setting possible on your phone or video camera.

• Dance and film in a well-lit area.

• Submit a minimum of 30 seconds of a wide-angle shot and 30 sections of close-up shots to provide more options for editing.

• Don’t lip sync. This will make editing to fit with the song more difficult. Any audio or sound will not be included, as “Can’t Stop The Feeling” will be played over the entire video.

• Try to showcase your favorite part of Noblesville or your business/organization.

• Any obscene content will result in the entire video being disregarded.

The deadline to submit a video is July 6. For more, or to submit your video, email Robert Herrington at rherrington@noblesville.in.us.

SERVE Noblesville initiative completes more than 50 service projects in fourth year

Who helps out?

This year’s SERVE Noblesville projects generated approximately 700 volunteers for more than 50 projects. (Submitted photo)

By Kayce Patton • news@currentnoblesville.com For the fourth year in a row, SERVE Noblesville volunteers canvassed the community to complete service projects last month. cover story Working June 22-25, Patrick Propst, chair of SERVE Noblesville and minister at Faith Community Church, gathered hundreds of volunteers to complete more than 50 projects to benefit the city in various ways.

In 2012, Propst began with SERVE after it became independent Propst from another service group, Faith Hope and Love. Many SERVE volunteers worked with Faith, Hope and Love, which serves the Indianapolis community. “(When SERVE started,) the partnering groups were all churches and part of their motivation was to offer to the community the reality that churches can work together,” Propst said. “While providing some good work of service back to the community, that was needed.”

As it has gained respect from those in the community, Propst said it has been a catalyst for giving people an opportunity to connect people through giving back.

“That’s actually what SERVE Noblesville is really about, is just connecting people to other people,” he said.

From left, SERVE Noblesville Chair Patrick Propst oversees Grace Church volunteers Linda Jackson and Nicole Oehler. (Photo by Sadie Hunter)

In the beginning, SERVE Noblesville had 450 “volunteer days” (meaning the initiative of 100 percent volunteer work counted over the days was 450 people), but Propst said several of those volunteers may have been counted more than once.

After the first few years, the numbers moved up to approximately 600 volunteers, and this year, Propst said he’s seen more than 700 volunteers come out to help.

Also growing since its inception is the number of projects completed. In its first year, 12 projects were planned and completed compared to this year’s 52.

One example is Crafts for a Cause, where volunteers craft clothing and other necessities for those in need and provide products for various local organizations.

The group focuses on projects that directly benefit Noblesville and its citizens but also has serviced those in surrounding communities. Other groups also have served alongside them, including the Boys and Girls Club of Noblesville, Noblesville Main Street, Keep Noblesville Beautiful, the City of Noblesville, Habitat for Humanity and area churches, among others.

“We will take on nearly any project that comes to us,” Propst said.

Examples of projects completed last week include lawn care and beautification, collecting donations and hauling them to specific locations, a blood drive, roof work at different businesses and sidewalk repair. Propst said he believes projects such as these build morale among volunteers for their community.

The process for choosing projects begins in January, and volunteers begin reaching out to contacts and networks for ideas of projects to be done in the community.

Propst said sometimes a project only takes one person who is knowledgeable in a specific area to teach a team of five, and other times, many projects are open for anyone and everyone to work on. Professionals have even come and offered their workers for a few days to help get the projects done.

Propst said he has a large planning team behind him that ensures projects are completed. Volunteer members from partnering organizations meet monthly year round to plan.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Who’s least untrustworthy?

OK, we can’t help ourselves with respect to the upcoming presidential election. It’s no surprise the vitriol gets nastier by the day, and it’s going to get much, much worse. We tend to agree with recent comments made by well-known pollster Frank Lantz, who, commenting on the high negatives of both Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) and Donald Trump (R-Billions), said, “The candidate who proves they are less untrustworthy is the candidate that’s going to win.” So Trump’s “Crooked Hillary” label likely makes sense. She’s hitting back, of course, but Trump is smart in bringing up all the past Bill and Hillary scandals of the past, as most of us forget the details. While pundits have told us this election will be like no other, it does bring to mind the 1988 battle between George H.W. Bush and Michael Dukakis (Remember him?). The Republicans knew it had a weak candidate in Bush, and the strategy was not to build up Bush but tear down Dukakis.

Mission accomplished. Perhaps this is what 2016 is all about: Whoever can launch more and effective punishing attacks on the other, wins. Trump has a great arsenal in Hillary being, well, Hillary, but we never underestimate the power of the Clinton machine. Either way, it will be a great spectator sport.

••• We hope you will have a safe and restful, if not overly patriotic, holiday weekend. Our nation’s independence is reliant on so many, and it’s defended the world over. To those that serve, and to those that came before them, our heartfelt thanks for all that is done each day so that we are ensured our freedom continues unabated.

Fame: It’s going to live forever Commentary by Terry Anker It is a popular subject of our culture. We sing songs about it. We dedicate films and television shows to it. It seems that we even select our political leaders, in part, because of it. Fame. It is pursued and reviled in nearly equal measure. Yet, its allure is undeniable because of both the power it bestows and the very fact that it bends the rules of life to conform to those who wield it. There are no velvet ropes that cannot be moved or inconveniences that cannot be overcome. For those standing in the bright light of fame, as 1980s British rock-and-roll band Dire Straits memorialized in its anthem to fame – you get “money for nothin’ and chicks for free.”

We all want to be special. There is nothing innately wrong with the desire to have our peers take notice of our ability, appearance or agenda. It is good to feel loved. One might imagine it is good to have things go our way a bit more. But the reality distorting prin-

ciples of fame often become a dangerous and addictive state of affairs. Too quickly one can come to believe that privileges, once imagined to be special, are now to be expected. They consider a life without firstclass passage too difficult to be endured.

Can we become trapped by our own expectations? Surely. Can our understandable need to be important be tainted as we achieve the very thing that we are seeking?

Probably. Kardashians, political candidates and community organizers all use fame as a tool to open doors and meet objectives.

In fact, it is most impressive what can be achieved doing little more than manipulate fame. But, is being a V.I.P. enough? Is fame an end in itself? Somehow, I doubt it.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK “A man is not finished when he is defeated. He is finished when he quits.”

– Richard Nixon

Recently we Wilsons had an interesting turn of events to which, in the broader context of parenting, I think humor many of you will relate.

My boy/girl twins are almost 15 and were set to make their Catholic confirmation last weekend. On the last day of their five-day preparation retreat, literally seven hours before the ceremony, I got a call from my son telling me he did not want to be Catholic.

He would not be making his confirmation that evening. My initial thought was, “But I ordered two cakes!”

He couldn’t explain his reasoning over the phone but assured me that this decision was not something he had taken lightly. I told him I was proud of him for choosing his own path, but hung up in tears. Had I done this? Had I been the one to turn him away from Catholicism, from my heritage? Or was he simply acting out a teenage rebellion, deciding this was easier than smoking pot? With no time to contemplate my maternal shortcomings – his sister was still going through after all – I continued making pasta salad for the post-mass party.

I did however text the relatives to let them know what had transpired and left the question of gift etiquette in their hands. When I picked him up prior to the mass, I heard his reasons. They were good. They were strong. And in that moment, I realized maybe I was actually a decent mom. I’d somehow taught my kid to stand up for his beliefs, whatever they are, and even if they aren’t the same as my own.

To my surprise (and his, I suspect), the family recognized this as a special moment, too. They rallied around my son in support of his decision, showering him with cards and cash anyway. In one particularly brilliant recovery, an aunt simply crossed out the word “confirmation” and wrote “cool new glasses.” Perfect.

Teens don’t always make the right call, which is why at cross country drop-off I love yelling “Make good choices!” But in this case, my son made the right one.

Peace out.

A millennial defines Noblesville Commentary by Chris Jensen I often get asked, “How would you define Noblesville?” It is a question I have pondered a lot lately, and I think I have come up city with a pretty fitting answer. A desirable suburban city with a unique and dynamic urban core. That’s my answer, but I would love to hear yours.

I have called Noblesville home my entire life, almost 32 years. What was once a quaint county seat, with historic buildings and cornfields, now looks very different. While many of the historic qualities remain the same, the cornfields have transformed into retail, commercial and residential developments.

While our downtown remains the gem of our community, we are no longer just defined by our historic courthouse square. Areas such as Exit 210, Morse Reservoir, Hazel Dell Parkway, the State Road 37 corridor and the booming east side prove we are a diverse melting pot of assets.

So, how does this city blend the strong, urban core with its growing suburban culture? It is a question I grapple with daily. I am confident that it starts with our residents. They are families, business owners, historians,

farmers, retirees and hipsters, just to name a few. What do they all have in common? A love for our city.

So how do we come together and solve the issues of our future? The same way we have solved the issues of our past. We will collaborate on items we agree on, and we will passionately and positively debate and seek compromise on the issues where we disagree. Will we have challenges? Sure. All cities do, even great ones like ours. However, I believe challenge is just another word for opportunity.

As I stated in the beginning, I have my definition of our hometown. It is one that has changed, and will continue to change as Noblesville moves forward. So, what is your definition? How would you define Noblesville in one sentence? Or, what would your ideal definition be? As we continue to move forward, I would welcome your input. Noblesville will only continue to get better so long as residents take an active role.

Your guide to allergies Commentary by Gerald Mick, MD, IU Health Physicians Primary Care While our immune systems protect us from viruses and bacteria, they also can react — or overreact — to family medicine harmless materials which trigger allergic reactions. Nearly 20 percent of Americans have some type of allergy. And while seasonal allergies with symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes and coughing are the most widely known allergies, many other substances, including foods, also can cause allergic reactions in some people.

Dust mites, pet dander, peanuts and seafood are other common allergens. People who are allergic to pet dander and dust can experience symptoms similar to seasonal allergies. They also may have red- or itchy-skin rashes or hives. Food allergies may cause a variety of symptoms, including stomach pain, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Allergies to nuts and other substances, such as insect stings, may cause the most severe and potentially life-threatening reaction — anaphylaxis — which causes a drop in blood pressure, difficulty breathing, loss of consciousness and shock. Individuals with severe allergies carry

epinephrine, a medication that stops severe allergic reactions. It comes in an auto-injector for quick and easy delivery.

It’s important to remember people can be allergic to anything. Medications, latex, metals, household cleaning chemicals and perfumes and dyes are other common culprits. Severity of the allergic reaction can differ greatly from person to person. In some cases, the reaction is quite noticeable; in others, it may be so mild it’s virtually overlooked.

If you think you have an allergy, see your primary-care doctor for an initial evaluation.

Depending on the circumstances, he or she may refer you to an allergist. There are a variety of tests, including simple blood tests, to help pinpoint allergies. Working closely with your doctor, most common allergy symptoms can be relieved with treatments that include oral antihistamines or regular allergy shots.

Homes sales up in central Indiana Commentary by Jim Litten

REMODELERS SINCE 1993 QUALITY PRODUCTS, EXPERT INSTALLATION GUARANTEED!

317-848-7634 www.centennialremodelers.com

LICENSED BONDED INSURED

Approximately 1,000 more homes have sold in central Indiana during the first five months of 2016 than the same real estate time period last year, according to data from the 13-county region F.C. Tucker tracks. In a monthly comparison, approximately 3,059 homes pended in May 2016, which was a 3 percent increase over May 2015. Homes priced more than $300,000 contributed to the majority of last month’s growth in pended sales.

In Hamilton County, pended sales are up 2.6 percent year-to-date and up 7.6 percent month-to-date. Approximately 45 more homes pended throughout the county than May 2015.

The average sales price rose 1.4 percent compared to last year, now at $276,505. Meanwhile, inventory tightened 9.3 percent year to date.

• In Noblesville, the average year-to-date home sales price increased 2.5 percent to $228,986.

• Inventory moved at a slower pace in Noblesville in May 2016. Overall, homes sold in 67 days – 15 more days than this

time last year.

• Buyers in Noblesville had fewer options available to them. Last month, 299 homes were available for sale – 107 fewer homes compared to May 2015.

• Pended home sales grew in Noblesville.

In May 2016, 103 homes sold – an increase of five homes compared to May 2015.

• Of the pended home sales in Noblesville last month, eight were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 27 were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 22 were priced $200,000 to $299,999; and 46 were priced $100,000 to $199,999.

May was a busy month for our sales associates, but the demand exists for more homes to be on the market. Central Indiana has approximately 2.3 months of inventory. Typically, if inventory falls below four months, we know it’s a seller’s market.

Grammy Award-winning artist Melissa Etheridge rocked the stage and halls of the Palladium four years ago. Where’s Amy was mesmerized by the return of Etheridge on June 21, when she belted out songs with her sweet, raspy voice and contagious energy and played to a packed house. Several guests and friends of The Center of the Performing Arts had the opportunity to attend a special VIP meet-and-greet before the concert and said it was the highlight of their evening. Etheridge released her latest album “This Is M.E.” in 2014, and fans loved listening to her sing the featured singles, “Take My Number,” “A Little Bit of Me,” and “Monster.”

Etheridge also brought down the house with her classic hits “I’m the Only One” and “Come to My Window.” Every time I attend a concert at the Palladium, I leave feeling pumped, and my heart is full. Etheridge touched the hearts of her fans when she sang and dedicated her new song, “Pulse,” to the victims of the Orlando tragedy. It was beautifully written, and 100 percent of all download proceeds go to help those affected by the tragedy in Orlando. Hands down, Etheridge gave a superb concert, and I left with a smile on my face thinking about how fortunate we are to have The Center for the Performing Arts working hard to bring the best worldwide entertainment to Carmel. Grab your family and friends and be sure to check out the 2016-2017 season, because Where’s Amy can’t wait to see you there! For more, visit TheCenterPresents.org.

It was a VIP family affair for Palladium sponsors, from left, Teri, Jack, Michael and Ron Lenz, all of Fishers, who are fans of Melissa Etheridge and said they love reading Where’s Amy.

Kevin Byrd (Carmel), Amy Rexroth (Carmel) and Mike Kueper (Fishers) loved hanging out and rocking to the sounds of Melissa Etheridge at the Palladium.

Carmel’s Jenn Kampmeier organized Rock the Cradle and Indy Family Fest, and now she has a new brainchild – the first mobile wine truck in the state. drinks She bought the bus last winter and began the rehab process in March.

“It took a good eight weeks to do it,” the self-titled “mompreneur” said. “There’s nothing else out there like it, so we were doing everything ourselves. We got the bus down to the bare bones and built it up again.”

The Vino Mobile, or Vinny, as Kampmeier fondly refers to it, has no seats and people can’t ride in the bus. The wine truck is completely mobile with a full bar, and it is available to be rented year-round.

“We always have five wines on there,” she said, adding that riesling, chardonnay, pinot grigio, pinot noir and a cabernet or cab blend are the most popular. “Indiana is a sweet state, and we love our moscato, love our riesling, so I’m going through that like hotcakes.”

The wine is purchased from Monarch Beverages, Coastal Wine and Spirits and Republic National Distributing Company.

Her first few customers include the Westfield City Market, and she has already been booked for weddings. She also has made an appearance at some summer concerts in West Clay, Avon, Noblesville and Fishers.

Glasses of wine cost between $6 and $8, depending on the wine.

Although Vinny has no seats and customers can’t ride the bus like some of the brew buses found around Indianapolis, Kampmeier said seats are on the agenda.

“Eventually, when we get done with 2016 and sit back, franchise is ultimately where I want to go with this,” she said. “We aren’t just a seasonal wine truck because we have a portable bar. We can take a custom bar anywhere, and (Vinny) is the transport. He’s the attention-getter.”

Customers have to be more than 21 years old to enjoy beverages. To rent the Vino Mobile Bar for an event, or to learn more, visit facebook.com/vinomobilebar.

‘Basement Ladies’ on stage

By Zach Dunkin • editorial@youarecurrent.com As far back as the 1940s, Walt Disney began a practice of putting its classic animated films like “Snow White” and “Bambi” theater in the vault.

Likewise, Beef & Boards Dinner Theater will lock up one of its favorites, “Church Basement Ladies,” following its July 14-Aug. 21 run.

“We’re bringing back the original production,” said Patricia Rettig, director of marketing and media relations. “There are several in the series, and we’ve presented four of them, so it can get confusing. This is the show where it all started, which we first presented six years ago. And it will be the last time we present it for a while. It’s going back into our vault, to borrow Disney’s term.”

“Church Basement Ladies” is based on the best-selling book, “Growing Up Lutheran” by Janet Letnes Martin and Suzann Nelson. The musical comedy is about the women who work in the church basement cooking meals for church functions. Four women do their best to organize food, stave off potential disasters, share and debate recipes, keep the pastor on due course and try to solve the problems of their changing rural Minnesota

Chariot Festival set for July 9

By Desiree Williams editorial@youarecurrent.com The Chariot Festival of Indianapolis is back for its second year and will offer food, entertainment and a traditional family fun Indian celebration. The event will start at 10 a.m.

July 9 at the Hindu Temple of Central Indiana, 3350 N. German Church Rd., Indianapolis.

Ratha Yatra is the tale of the journey of three Hindu deities – Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra – from their temple to their aunt’s home on grand chariots.

The event originated in Puri, Odisha in India, but it has spread worldwide since 1967 with the first U.S. festival in San Francisco.

“Our event is not about any religion, thought or belief,” said Saswati Pandab, one of the festival organizers. “It about people coming together, getting to know each other, enjoying, dressing up and trying out something new.”

Pandab moved to Fishers in 2004 where she found a small group of people working to organize the event there. They couldn’t plan it all on their own, so they reached out to the Hindu Temple for help. Now, they have gained sponsors as well as more organizing members

who donate to make the event possible.

During the festival, visitors can help pull the chariots around the temple, play instruments and enjoy Indian cuisine. The only cost for the event is a food coupon, which Pandab said will be less than $5.

Pandab said the event was so successful last year that the group already has plans to expand the festival to the downtown area within the next few years. She said they are hoping to make this event as well known as the ones in New York or California.

“The more people get to know about it, the more people participate, one day we will be able to Google ‘Ratha Yatra Indiana,’” Pandab said.

Blueprint for Improvement: Creating functional space Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

After

The goal was to create additional and more functional space with an updated look throughout the entire home.

1. A second story was added to include a master suite with sitting room, a cathedral ceiling, hardwood floors, laundry room and a balcony off the bedroom.

2. The kitchen received a remodel with new cabinets, countertops, lighting, hardware and appliances.

3. New windows were installed throughout.

4. Updated lighting, flooring and finishes throughout the home.

5. All roofing and siding was replaced, along with a fresh coat of paint to give the exterior an updated look.

Before Background info: This 1930s bungalow in Meridian-Kessler was a bachelor’s pad before the couple got married. The two-bedroom home was just not enough space for the newlyweds.

Before problems:

Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/ Remodeling. You may email him at lgreene@ caseindy.com. To see more before-and-after pictures of this project, visit caseindy.com/blog.

The luxury of space and privacy was lacking in this small home, especially with only one shared bathroom. Most of the home was original and very dated, with original cabinets, plaster walls and flooring.

Talking politics Commentary by Jordan Fischer Good news for those of you out there in Grammar Land: the Grammar Guy is back from his hiatus and ready to grammar guy talk politics (sort of).

Generally, holding the position of Grammar Guy in as high esteem as I do, I try to stay above the fray. But now that election season has roared upon us with all its sound and fury, even I can’t resist a few steps on the campaign trail.

Don’t worry: We’re not going to be spellchecking campaign mailers or critiquing candidates on their subject-verb agreement. We’re going deeper. So grab your copy of Aristotle’s “Rhetoric” and prepare to talk about the art of persuasion.

If ethos, pathos and logos sound like characters from the Three Musketeers … then you’re surprisingly well-read for someone who’s not familiar with the modes of persuasion.

First put to page by Aristotle in the Fourth Century B.C., the modes of persuasion (ethos, pathos and logos) are how speakers appeal to their audiences. I’ll let the man himself do the introductions: “Of the modes of persuasion furnished by the spoken word there are three kinds. ... Persuasion is achieved by the speaker’s personal character when the speech was so spoken as to make us think him credible (Ethos). ...

Secondly, persuasion may come through the hearers, when the speech stirs their emotions

(Pathos). ... Thirdly, persuasion is effected through the speech itself when we have proved a truth or an apparent truth by means of the persuasive arguments suitable to the case in question (Logos).”

Repackaging that for this century, ethos is an appeal to authority – specifically the speaker’s. It can come from expertise, from an elected position or just inherent goodness. The important thing is that the speaker has authority, and you should listen to him/her because of it.

Pathos is an appeal to emotion. If you’re a fan of the Simpsons, you’ll recognize pathos in Helen Lovejoy’s frequent, handwringing appeals for “somebody to please think of the children.” Won’t you?

Logos is the appeal to logic – and it’s often the least effective mode. If you’d like to understand why, consider that Airborne – the popular Vitamin C supplement – made its parent company $70 million between 2011 and 2012 – a full three years after the makers admitted in a $23 million class-action lawsuit that there was “no competent and reliable scientific evidence” to support its health claims. As of the writing of this article, a bottle of 75 Airborne gummies goes for $23.75 on Amazon.

Coming up next week: “Ethos, or: Why people should listen to me.”

Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing. To ask Jordan a grammar question, write him at rjfische@ gmail.com.

Dispatch Fact checking – You’ve probably fallen for one of those stories that makes the social media rounds.

They’re usually either sappy, like the story of Daisy the dog rescuing people on 9/11, or designed to scare you into taking some kind of action. Have you seen the recurring warning about Facebook posts becoming public? Both stories are false, but people repost them anyway. Before passing on such stories, take a minute to fact check on a website like Snopes.com, TruthorFiction.com or FactCheck.org.

Along Amsterdam’s Singel Canal. (Photo by Don Knebel)

The canals of Amsterdam Commentary by Don Knebel Since 2010, Amsterdam’s canal ring has been on UNESCO’s World Heritage list. Since the 17th century, this unique travel transportation system has allowed visitors to the Netherlands’ capital to reach what is probably the city’s most famous attraction.

In the middle of the 13th century, Dutch fishermen established a trading village along the Amstel River in northwest Holland. The village became known as “Amsterdam” after a dam protecting the area from flooding. To protect against invaders, residents built a semi-circular moat around their village, extending south from the IJ, at the time a bay. In 1585, Amsterdam expanded beyond the moat and residents began using the moat, named the “Singel Canal,” for transporting themselves and their goods. In 1613, with its population continuing to grow from international trade, the city began building three additional canals in concentric semi-circular rings around the original moat, quadrupling the area of the city.

When completed, Amsterdam’s new canals were connected to each other and to the

Singel Canal by radially extending canals, enabling efficient water travel from any part of the city to another.

Amsterdam, with a population of more than 200,000 in 1800, was among the world’s largest and most prosperous cities, attracting people from all over the world. One of its most popular destinations, especially for visiting sailors, was an area inside the Singel Canal known as “De Wallen,” featuring drinking, gambling and prostitution.

Today, Amsterdam’s 165 canals, with a combined length of approximately 65 miles, are spanned by more than 1,200 bridges, three times as many as in Venice. Approximately 2,500 houseboats are moored along the canal banks, most serving as permanent residences.

Three million visitors a year board tour boats to traverse Amsterdam’s canal network, many ending their trip near De Wallen to explore Amsterdam’s still flourishing red-light district.

One of those days?
