DVD Review A lot of people were put off by the bizarre premise of “Her” – a lonely man falls in love with his computer. This might sound like the set-up for a bad raunchy comedy, but in fact this tender drama from writer/director Spike Jonze (“Being John Malkovich”) offers trenchant observations about loneliness and romance.

The balance in a room is most obviously dependent on the size of furnishings but depth of color, patterning, and texture all play a roll. Read more at www.currentinwestfield.com.

Ex-coach charged with child porn - A former volunteer wrestling coach at Westfield High School was formally charged with federal child pornography crimes on April 30. Christopher Rennard, 28, of Westfield faces two counts of shipping or transporting by means of computer visual depictions of minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct, as well as possessing and distributing child pornography. According to the criminal complaint affidavit, a report was submitted to the Cyber Tip Line by Dropbox, Inc. that indicated a user on its online data storage service had uploaded and stored files that contained child pornography between Jan. 15 and Jan. 27. Investigators determined Rennard was the subscriber and traced the IP address to his residence in Westfield. Investigators said Rennard contacted other child pornographers using an iPhone app called Omegle. They would exchange links, images and videos stored in Dropbox accounts so they could be downloaded and copied. Rennard could face up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted. Westfield Washington Schools officials said Rennard only coached during the 2013-14 season, which ended in February.

He was not considered to be involved with the district at the time of his arrest. Prior to becoming a volunteer coach, Rennard passed a mandatory background check. To read more visit currentinwestfield.com

Westfield High School transformed history into a rock concert during the second American Pie show on May 1. The concert’s goal was to show how music intertwined the 1970s in American history. Last year, approximately 30 students participated in the American Pie show, which included musicians, singers and promoters. This year, that number rose to more than 50 as teachers and community members joined students on stage.

Angel offers hope, healing

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County has a devoted place for comfort, reflection and hope for those who have lost a child. Many of the estimated ceremony 400 visitors attending the Angel of Hope dedication in Noblesville’s Forest Park on May 4 were grieving family members and friends of children or grandchildren who have died.

“It’s a great landmark for Noblesville. It turned out better than I anticipated. Everyone participating has done a wonderful job,” said Gary Warren, memorial designer.

On June 1, 2008 Brenda and Kirk Forbes lost their 23-year-old daughter Kristen to cervical cancer.

“When you lose your child a lot of things go through your mind. You look for answers that can’t be answered. We know someday we will see Kristen again. That is our hope,” Kirk said.

“May the Angel of Hope be a garden of solemn and peace for everyone.”

The garden, which is paved with 160 bricks engraved with the names of lost children, is situated in a quiet wooded area. The non-denominational memorial’s centerpiece is the statue of a child angel with extended arms of welcome. The word “Hope” is written in her right wing.

Kirk said that he plans to hold dedications twice a year to remember children as engraved bricks will continue to be sold. He has other

ideas for improving the site including a ramp pathway from the parking lot to the memorial and a permanent sign.

“The important part is done but there is still some work to do,” he said.

Paving the way

Projects list

The city is using approximately $40 million from the sale of Westfield’s water and wastewater utilities to Citizens Energy Group for much needed infrastructure investments such as new streets, sidewalks and trail expansions – without raising taxes.

“We’re investing money into infrastructure to spawn economic development,” Deputy Mayor Todd Burtron said. “It’s not a hard-and-fast list.”

The list of infrastructure projects and year to be constructed includes:

2014

Planning turns into construction on roadway improvements throughout the city

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com “Westfield where you want to be” signs can be found throughout the city, greeting motorists near impending improvements. The tagline on the metal signs also is intended to inform cover story the public that the project – typically an infrastructure improvement – is being funded by the proceeds from the city’s utility sale to Citizens Westfield.

“None of the projects would be happening today without the utility sale,” Mayor Andy Cook said.

Funding

The city is using funds from the water and wastewater utilities sale to retire all of the utility’s $45 million in debt with the remaining amount of approximately $40 million for infrastructure investments.

Cook “One of the challenges with bonds is working with INDOT to take advantage of state and federal funds to further leverage our local funds. We’re working real close with INDOT to extend our funds,” Cook said, adding that funding opportunities include 50/50 and 80/20 cost splits between Westfield and the government. “Right now, if we are able to leverage some of the funds we can complete everything on the council’s improvement list – trails and roads – and have enough funding for other projects we’ll be proposing to the council fairly soon.”

Grand Park

As guests fill the 400-acre sports complex weekend after weekend, Cook said roadwork continues at Grand Park. The park will have three entrances – Spring Mill and Wheeler roads and 191st Street. Cook said Wheeler Road will be improved with two lanes to the west of the current roadway. Other planned construction projects include a roundabout at Tomlinson Road which will be built this fall, cal-de-sacs at the ends of 196th Streets between U.S. 31, and widening and improvements on 191st Street as additional lanes will be constructed to Spring Mill Road.

Cook said, “I’ve heard just a few complaints from out-of-towners about construction. I’ve been surprised. (To control traffic) we stagger games and start times and worked very hard on signage off the highway.”

Current projects

As progress moves from the planning stage to construction, Cook

said work can be seen at the intersection of 161st Street and Carey Road. Sitework and utility relocation is being done before the roundabout can be built.

“We’re in the land acquisition stage of 161st Street and Oak Ridge Road, which is tied up legally, and 156th Street and Spring Mill Road. We’re just about complete and will move to the bid stage pretty quickly,” he said.

Cook said the design and land acquisition also is complete for the North Union Street extension: “We’re very careful. We can’t create more than we can maintain. If we build a mile we have to be sure we are providing enough funds to maintain.”

Kicking kneefat to the curb

FROM THE BACKSHOP The few, proud … the voters And so another primary election has come and gone, with much discussion in the aftermath about low voter turnout. What has been missing from the discourse, though, has been examination. We can’t for any reason understand why Hamilton County voters stayed away from the polls – in droves, as they say. In our county, a paltry 12.1 percent of registered voters turned out to try to make a difference for their communities and our state and nation. To be so disconnected from the opportunity to reward or deny those seeking office is pure abdication if you believe the national polls. We’re told millenials, especially, were no-shows. To that group we would say, “People, this is your future. Are you satisfied with $17.5 trillion in national debt? Are you happy to have the state run (perhaps into the ground financially) a mass transit system?

Your future! Your dime, your dance floor.” The sweeping back in of incumbents nationally was similarly troubling to us, especially on the Republican side of the aisle, where all the ineffective lapdogs seemingly have been rewarded with another term. The two-party system, as it exists today, wins with a low voter turnout.

By not participating, we play into the establishment’s hands, and that’s why nothing ever changes. But is this what our home county looks like now? We don’t understand how any race in last Tuesday’s polling could be considered “not sexy enough” to bring out the vote.

Every single race mattered. It’s about you, your community, your state, your nation and (ta-da!) your wallet. If you truly want change, then you will have voted in the primary, because that is the election that more often than not determines whether incumbents stay or go. The question becomes, then: Do you really want change?

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

A success story

Commentary by Terry Anker

We humans are a collaborative lot. In spite of the occasional primitive provincial urges, we manage to work together in advancing our mutual interests with some regularity. It is on full display when the six distinct chambers of commerce in Hamilton County come together for the immensely popular Hamilton County Chambers Collaborative Luncheon. The chambers deploy their collective power to recruit top-shelf national speakers to address a crowd well north of 500 people. It makes good sense. By identifying common interests and challenges, these business and community leaders accomplish so very much more than might be attainable if isolated.

Speaking to the packed house at the Ritz Charles, Patricia Martin, author of RenGen: Tipping the Culture, shared her extensive research on intergenerational interaction and even more specifically on the unique attributes of the socalled Millennial Generation. She warned of predilections that the Baby-Boom and Gen X folks might carry for this new crowd of Americans that insinuate an entitled – if not outright lazy –

approach to work and community involvement.

Sure, there are distinct differences regarding the application of one’s work ethic, but research shows these kids care a ton about success. In fact, it measures as the top objective of a life well lived. Being safe and free from crime was a distant second; and education followed closely as number three.

Success is a vexing term at any age. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the nuanced meaning of its attainment must most assuredly elude those who have the minimum seniority on the planet. So only in time will this word find its meaning for these young folks. But one can be bolstered by the priority placed on productivity. Won’t its mere pursuit, whether in building empires or homeless shelters, be to the benefit of us all?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.”

– Pablo Picasso

The first time I wore shorts this year I made a horrifying discovery. At some point between last November and now, I achumor quired knee fat. KNEE FAT! I ask you, good people of central Indiana, how does one even develop cellulite at the knee? And no, it’s not actually on the cap or anything, but right above, meaning everything from the hip area and upper thigh region conspired against me to slide down towards my most needed of all joints. How could this have happened?

Do I gain weight in the chest area? No, of course, not. That would be too convenient. Do I gain it in the stomach, where I could smoosh it all in with control-top undergarments? No again.

All of my extra lard settles in the third quartile, so unless I’m committed to Bermudas or Capris, the whole world is gonna see it. My pasty, white skin isn’t helping either; it’s like I’ve highlighted all the dimples with a halogen spot.

But I digress. The point of all of this is that I am now highly motivated to seriously get back into to shape. Sure I fooled myself into thinking doing one 30-minute Insanity workout a week could keep this 40-plus old body in top form, but I’ve always known it wasn’t enough. Even the push-ups I’ve added in to meet my New Year’s Resolution of kick-ass arms aren’t doing much. My solution? A triathlon! Not an Ironman or Olympic or even a Sprint, but a 400-meter swim, 12-mile bike, and 5K jog for babies. It’s scheduled for the first weekend in August, giving me about three months to prepare. And now that I’ve announced it to you, my adoring public, I am fully vested.

Admittedly, I am nervous. I’ve never done anything like this before. I can run and bike and swim, just not all that well and definitely not consecutively for the sixty to ninety minutes it’ll take to survive. I’m also concerned about training. I have a 10-year old mountain bike with sketchy handle bars, no pool, and very little free time. But I’ll figure it out. I cannot go through summer with this extra poundage on my lower thighs, and I want to model healthy living for my kids. Besides, according to a schedule I downloaded from the Internet (where everything is true and trustworthy!), I really only need about two hours a week to fit in each of the three disciplines. A little freestyle here, a little cycling there, eat some carbs, drink some water. How hard can it possibly be?

So goodbye, knee fat! You must find somewhere else to reside. This momma’s wearing shorts come summer. Peace out.

Mad about MAD magazine

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Albert B. Feldstein passed away the end of last month at age 88. The memory of his work, the importance of his legacy and humor the effect his magazine had on me (and millions of others) back in the ’50s and ’60s makes me smile.

Feldstein was the editor of MAD magazine from 1956 until 1984. He was just one of a cast of creative writers and cartoonists who changed the landscape of humor and influenced a generation of baby boomers. MAD’s material was not as caustic or risqué as Lenny Bruce’s or George Carlin’s, but in its own way, it was just as subversive, mainly because on the surface it appeared gentler. It poked fun at American institutions (family, politics, relationships, movie plots), not by offending, but by educating and challenging the younger generation to think critically.

Specific covers of the magazine are etched in my memory. Most were graced by Alfred E. Neuman, a Howdy-Doodyish looking fellow (now, with an eerie resemblance to both Bush 43 and Barack Obama) who came to represent MAD. It was Feldman who selected this likeness to be the publication’s mascot. The rest is mystery.

Was the character a buffoon? A nerd? A savant?

No matter – Alfred’s constant mantra “What, Me Worry?” brilliantly balanced the satirical content of the magazine with a dose of coping advice for youngsters like myself. After the Three Mile Is-

land nuclear incident in 1979, Alfred’s refrain was briefly changed to “Yes, Me Worry.”

The cover that preceded the 1960 presidential election proclaimed “Congratulations, Mr. Nixon— We were with you all the way.” If you flipped the magazine over, the alternative front cover read: “Congratulations, Mr. Kennedy—We were with you all the way.” The political hedging was a commentary, of course, on punditry and slippery journalism … and it is just as fresh today.

Another feature of MAD magazine was “The Lighter Side” by cartoonist Dave Berg. Berg lived in my hometown of New Rochelle, not a mile from my house. He was the precursor, I believe, to the kind of the observational humor that comprises contemporary comedy. His cartoon panels ended with biting observations about life in a typical family, often lampooning Roger Kaputnik, his own alter ego, in the strip.

I did very little research for this article, relying totally on memories from almost 50 years ago.

My old teachers back in junior high school would probably have admonished that this is not a journalistic way to write about events that occurred a half century ago. All I can say is: “What, Me Worry?”

‘Sleeping Beauty’ brings tutus and princesses to the Tarkington

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com

Princess Aurora will be played by dancer Erika Cole, left, and Nicole Retzlaff will play a lilac fairy in the Central Indiana Dance Ensemble’s presentation of “The Sleeping Beauty.”

(Submitted photo)

“The Sleeping Beauty” • Tarkington Theatre at the Center for the Performing arts in Carmel • 2 and 7:30 p.m., May 17 • Tickets start at $23 • For more information call 843-3800 or visit www.thecenterfortheperformingarts.org

The Central Indiana Dance Ensemble will stage the familiar tale of “The Sleeping Beauty” at the Tarkington Theatre on May 17, and the cast believes it should appeal to a wide audience.

“It’s a princess story, so of course you’ll get the little girls, but it’s also a very technically proficient ballet so it’s great for those who really know ballet,” Ballet said Erika Cole, who plays Princess Aurora.

It’s one of the most well-known fairy tales, but the ballet version varies slightly from Disney’s animated film. There’s no Maleficent, the evil villain created for the 1959 film. The original tale was turned into a ballet in Russia in 1890 and features the evil fairy godmother Carabosse who casts a spell on the princess because she is jealous that she isn’t invited to her christening. As a result, Princess Aurora will prick her finger on her 16th birthday and fall into a timeless sleep until a handsome prince wakes her with a kiss.

Artistic Director Suzanne Delay carefully picked costumes and dance movements to portray the forces of good versus evil in this production.

“The good fairies, the lilac fairies, are in all beautiful, colorful tutus with sparkles and soft movements and beautiful lighting, but the Carabosse character, the evil fairy, is in black and has evil dancers with him with heavier music that is more ominous,” she said.

Delay conducted open auditions to fill out the cast of more than 80 dancers. The Central Indiana Dance Ensemble has a company of about 50 dancers ages 8 to 18, so plenty of new faces were added for this production.

Three professional guest performers were brought in for the show. Cole, who plays Aurora, will be dancing with Grant Dettling, who plays the prince.

Both Cole and Dettling danced together for the Dayton Ballet company for about eight years, so they have chemistry. Cole recently retired from the company and moved to Carmel. Professional dancer Steven Wright plays Carabosse.

Cole said she hopes that families will come see a beautiful interpretation of a classic fairy tale.

“People enjoy seeing a different version of the story without words,” she said, “And it’s a ballet with a happy ending.”

DISPATCHES Three beaten-down stocks to consider - If you don’t have time to shop around, here are three of the market’s top stocks to buy: 1) iRobot (IRBT) landed another multi-million-dollar contract with the U.S. Dept. of Defense to supply robotics and parts to the military. But IRBT shares have fallen 25 percent since their early March peak. Shareholders made a big mistake by selling. iRobot has managed to grow its top line in four of the past five years, and has turned a profit in all five of them. 2) Waste Management (WM) pays dividends – and increases them – like clockwork. And investors who wade into Waste Management now will find the yields on their investment in WM stock are a little sweeter thanks to a 13 percent tumble the stock took between November and March. Although shares of WM stock have advanced about 8 percent from those March lows, the yield is still an attractive 3.4 percent. 3) Brunswick (BC) managed to top estimates in every quarter of 2011, 2012 and 2013, the recreation products company - maker of fitness equipment and Boston Whaler boats, among other things - merely met estimates in the first quarter. As a result, BC shares sold off to the tune of 2.5 percent following the news, topping off what’s now become a 15 percent plunge from March’s highs. In the long run, Brunswick is still the same company that has had a multi-year habit of topping estimates and growing the bottom line. SOURCE: MSN Money

If you have money in the market, specifically in mutual funds or exchange-traded funds, you may be wondering: Should I Finance use index or actively-managed investments?

While everyone’s situation is different, let’s take a look at the difference between active and passive management.

The first concept to understand about active management is that there are two broad-level ways to manage investments and they involve fundamental and technical analysis of the market and investments.

Fundamental analysts consider such things as the past records of assets, earnings, sales, products, management and markets of a company in order to try to predict a company’s future success or failure. This would include analyzing the financial results of business decisions made by management.

Technical analysis, on the other hand, is concerned with analyzing the price movement patterns of a company’s securities.

Technical analysts use charts or computer programs to identify and project price trends in a market, security, fund or futures contract. They are attempting to predict future price movements based upon past price movements, and the underlying fundamentals are not important or taken into consideration.

In summary, fundamentalists try to assess the “true” value of a stock, assuming that the market price will eventually adjust to the intrin-

sic or true value, while technicians try to predict the price movements of the stock and don’t care about why the price will move.

What is interesting about both of these measures is that they are both trying to predict the future movements of the markets based on current data. The equivalent is also true of a weather forecaster: using current and past data, they are trying to predict the weather tomorrow, this weekend and next week. Moreover, they are also trying to “one up” the next station. I have seen the 10-day forecast be “one-upped” by the 14-day forecast, and I have even seen forecasters put out 21-day reports.

In the end, though, it’s better served for investors if they have the “proper equipment” for whatever the weather brings: umbrella, sunscreen, a sweatshirt, a pair of shorts and a windbreaker.

The equivalent in portfolio management is to ensure that you have a well-diversified and allocated portfolio, ready to capitalize on most any market situation and circumstance. But it’s important to note, though, that asset allocation and diversification does not guarantee there won’t be any losses.

Just remember to control the factors that you can control: fees and expenses. Let the markets do the rest.

Revisit and revise your goals

By Kathleen Connelly

How can this be? Four months have already passed in 2014. Are you like most people and you made some New Year’s resoluFitness tions? Now that you have settled into the year, have some or all of those resolutions gone back into the drawer to be pulled out again next year? There is still a way to plan for, take action towards and achieve those goals!

The first thing to do is prioritize. Take a look back at the resolutions you made and pick the one that is most important to you right now.

Okay, now that you have figured that out, take that resolution and make it more specific. For example, if the goal is to lose weight, break it down into how much weight you are going to lose – or if the goal is to improve nutrition, what foods do you want to introduce into your diet? The more specific and realistic a goal is the more easily you can pick out the appropriate action steps.

Next is to take your specific goal and turn it into action steps. What specific actions are you going to do to start moving towards this goal?

For example, losing 10 pounds turns into walking for 30 minutes every other day and eating breakfast every day. Improving nutrition turns into eating one serving of fruit at breakfast and eating one serving of vegetables at lunch and dinner. I believe in focusing on the positive instead of focusing on what you are giving up. Yes,

certain aspects of your life will need to change for these action steps to occur, but nothing is off the table completely if you know that it is always your choice.

Lastly, decide when you are going to start your action steps and prepare accordingly. If eating fruit at breakfast is an action, make sure you have it in the fridge for each morning. On the days you are going to walk, set out your clothes and shoes in a convenient spot. Action is more easily done if we prepare ourselves, plan for it and create the environment that will make our actions successful. Your resolutions don’t have to be made year after year and never realized.

Make them realistic for your life, make them something you feel positive about, turn them into specific action steps, prepare for those action steps and then go for it!

Michelangelo’s Marble Miracles Commentary by Don Knebel

In 1501, the overseers of Florence, Italy’s recently-completed Duomo gave a 26-year-old sculptor an already chiseled abantravel doned block of Carrara marble to see what he could make of it. What the young Michelangelo made was David, probably the most famous statue in history.

The overseers had hoped Michelangelo, already known for his Pieta in Rome’s St. Peter’s Basilica, could use the discarded – but still valuable – marble to create a prosaic statue to fit into a niche near the roofline of their domed cathedral. Michelangelo had grander ideas. He worked more than two years in his Florence studio releasing his classic image of David from the marble. When completed in 1504, David was more than 17 feet tall and weighed 12,000 pounds, making the intended location high above the ground impractical. More important, the citizens of Florence saw in the heroic figure of David a reflection of their own resistance to domination from Rome and the Medici’s and wanted the statue to be seen. They positioned David just outside city hall, his watchful gaze directed toward Rome. The statue quickly became the symbol of the Florentine Republic and its leading role in the Italian Renaissance.

The sinewy David demonstrated Michelangelo’s extraordinary knowledge of human anatomy, garnered from corpses he dissected when only 18. But the anatomical correctness was too much for Queen Victoria, who received a replica of the statute as a gift from the Duke of Tuscany in 1857. She ordered that an 18-inch wide plaster fig leaf be hung strategically on hooks when she and other royal ladies visited the museum where David was displayed.

After braving the elements for 369 years, Michelangelo’s masterpiece was moved into Florence’s Galeria dell’Accademia for protection and its position outside city hall taken up by a replica.

Visitors to the Accademia can also see Michelangelo’s four “Unfinished Slaves,” in which incomplete figures seem to be straining to emerge from the surrounding marble. Whether Michelangelo abandoned these works or intentionally left them unfinished to show the struggles of human

Techniques to help control obsessive behavior in dogs Commentary by John Mikesell What’s OCD? Also called canine compulsive disorder and compulsive behavior disorder, OCDs have been defined by behavior researchers Drs. Andrew Luescher and Caroline Hewson as “behaviors that are usually brought on by conflict, but that are canines subsequently shown outside the original context … Compulsive behaviors seem abnormal because they are displayed out of context and are often repetitive, exaggerated, or sustained.”

Luescher, a veterinary behaviorist and director of Purdue University’s Animal Behavior Clinic, estimates that about one dog out of 50 suffers from canine compulsive disorder. Luescher and Hewson suggest that examples of environmental stressors that can trigger compulsive behaviors include: • Physical restraints such as close confinement and chaining.

• Social conflicts that arise from competition for status, changes in social group or separation.

• An unpredictable or uncontrollable environment.

• A lack of target object for normal behavior. For example, a dog kept isolated has no normal outlet for its instinct to interact within a group, whether animal or human.

Common OCDs include behaviors such as spinning, tail chasing, fly snapping, shadow chasing, air licking, flank sucking, persistent barking and “hallucinating.”

Despite the intriguing names for these behaviors, they are not fun for dogs or pet owners. In fact, they can make life pretty miserable, and are evidence that the dog is living in an environment that is too stressful.

WHAT TO DO • Explore, rule out, or treat medical conditions that might contribute to stress including thyroid.

• Increase exercise on a consistent schedule. This is an important one. Not only does exercise use up energy that might otherwise feed OCD behaviors, but aerobic exercise promotes endorphin release, which has a calming effect.

WHAT YOU CAN DO • Manage your dog’s world to maximize structure and consistency and minimize stress and the likelihood to will develop

compulsive behaviors.

• Be on the lookout for any signs your dog is developing a compulsive disorder and address them immediately if they appear.

• Avoid engaging in behaviors with your dog that are likely to elicit compulsive disorder such as chasing a flashlight or laser beam, or reinforcing tail chasing.

• If your dog has an established obsessive compulsive disorder, seek the help of a qualified behavior professional, and realize that effective treatment will probably include the use of behavior modification drugs.

• There is a long list of things that can cause your dog stress, and also quite a few things that can be done to prevent the problem. More than can be listed in this space.

An outdoor retreat designed for year-round entertainment

Commentary by Larry Greene

before & after

ORIGINAL DECK/PATIO: This home, located in the Village of West Clay in West Carmel, was built in 2004. The homeblueprint for owners’ vision was to improvement create an outdoor space that could be enjoyed year-round: “We moved in during the peak of the summer and spent a lot of time at local pools.

We decided to add a pool of our own and do something about the deck.” While the pool builder focused on the pool, the owners realized they needed some assistance creating a complete master plan of the backyard. After looking at several 3D designs of the entire backyard, they decided to design an open covered porch which would connect the indoors with the pool area.

EXTERIOR FINISH: The original deck was removed and a new stamped concrete patio with steps was installed. Structural beams and 6x6 structural columns were installed to support the new roof. To give the porch a cohesive look with the rest of the house, all of the cedar trim was painted to match the existing trim and matching shingles were installed. Trex composite railing in a black color was installed around the perimeter of the porch and on the small staircase leading into the home.

UPGRADED FEATURES: In order to deliver on the homeowners’ vision, several upgrades were incorporated into the final design. An outdoor

kitchen was added with a built-in gas grill, mini fridge, storage cabinets and a limestone countertop.

Infrared heaters were also installed in the ceiling directly above the dining area to keep guests comfortable throughout all seasons.

The final touch includes a relaxing seating area just off the kitchenette with a perfect view of the wall-mounted flat screen television.
