School land still for sale

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com The Westfield Washington Schools Board rejected an offer to sell 14.1 acres of high-profile property at U.S. 31 and Ind. 32 during its meeting on June 11. The acreage includes the administraEDUCATION tion building, football/track stadium, junior varsity baseball field and practice fields.

“It’s a rare occurrence the school district has land to sell,” WWS Supt. Mark Keen said. “There are a lot of different options.”

The board unanimously approved to reject the offer and asked attorney Jack Hittle to take steps to put the property on the open market. A study committee consisting of school board members Duane Lutz and David Mueller will work closer with interested groups and report back to the board at the Sept. 11 meeting.

The school district accepted bids from March to mid-May but only received a $6-million offer from Westfield Community Land Investors. Before rejecting the offer, board members said they felt the property was worth more and had several questions about the bid that were not included in the offer.

“If we accepted this bid we would be homeless,” School Board President Tim D. Siefker said.

Per state law, the minimum bid the district can

accept is $5.4 million, which is 90 percent of the property’s appraised value. Westfield Community Land Investors offered the appraised value of $6,029,500.

Randy Zentz of Westfield Community Land Investors said the rejected offer is not a negative.

“It’s a government process,” he said. “It opens the door to further discussion.”

Westfield Community Land Investors are a group of people with a strong Westfield connection, which means they either live here, work here, own property and pay taxes or have a child in Westfield Washington Schools. Zentz said the group wants to work with the district and city’s plans for Grand Junction to make the transition a win-win-win.

“We’re very aware of all the moving parts,” he said.

“We believe this is a good opportunity in the future, but you do not know what the future will hold.”

While the land sale funds could be used to finish the community stadium, Keen has highlighted other areas to use the money.

“It is our hope that we will raise all the funds for the stadium and can use the money from the land sale to lower our debt and reduce the tax rate,” Keen said. “Additionally, the land sale would have further impact on the tax rate as the ground would move from being non-taxable to taxable.”

DECA has taught lifelong skills

Real Estate Auction

Thursday June 27 11 am

By Anna Skinner • news@currentinwestfield.com Many students at Westfield High School spend their time participating in different types of clubs to use as filler on their college resumes. However, there is no club quite like DECA. DECA is a business oriented club where students can participate in different business categories.

Westfield seniors Noah Roush, Steven Johnson, Nathan Adams and Alex Schulke all performed their DECA scenarios at the state competition in downtown Indianapolis.

Adams, who is a first-year DECA member, competed in the Business Finance category.

He placed first, an amazing feat for a first-year participant, and even went to Internationals in California.

Adams said his involvement helped him decide to major in finance at Indiana University.

“DECA competitions allow you to view some real life situations and get a better understanding of what goes on in the business world,” he said.

Schulke, another solo performer, also placed first in his category at state. Instead of finance, he participated in accounting applications. Schulke is double majoring in accounting and finance at IU’s Kelley School of Business.

Unlike their peers, Johnson and Roush competed as a team in marketing communications.

The two are experienced DECA members and

competed last year. This year, they placed third at district, first at state, and then traveled to Internationals where they unfortunately did not place.

Roush is a direct admit to IU’s Kelley School of Business and Johnson plans on going to law school.

“The biggest thing with DECA is communication,” he said. “It has helped with networking, presenting myself, and thinking quick on my feet. Making an impression with only 30 minutes of prep time is great practice for any sort of presentation.”

According to the Westfield Police Dept., Nichols has shown great initiative by nearly doubling his traffic enforcement and has done an outstanding job as a Field Training Officer. He also has worked diligently while servicing and repairing the department’s bicycle fleet to ensure they are safe and ready for bike patrol officers. Lastly, Nichols has made a dedication to improve his fitness by taking part in the department Cross Fit program, the Physical Fitness initiative exam, and a squad level running group.

By Anna Skinner news@currentinwestfield.com One of Westfield High School’s many goals is helping students accomplish great things. Thanks to the school’s executive committee, a branch of WHS Student Government, two recently cover story graduated seniors have done just that.

Alongside the help from the other six WHS Executive Committee members, Lauren Huser and Shannon Webb have set up a website to match willing volunteers with current volunteer opportunities in the community.

“It was a team effort with help from Mikaylah Gross to Huser set up the website,” Webb said. “We all realized that there were a lot of seniors and kids around the Westfield community that wanted and needed to volunteer. The Volunteer Network website is a great way to do that.”

Webb The network, online at http://rockleadersvolunteer.com, is an easily accessible place for residents to search for volunteer opportunities. With clubs such as the National Honor Society and Key Club that require volunteer hours, this website is just what students needed.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity to place community members in volunteer activities happening around the city,” Executive Committee Co-sponsor Mark Ewing said. “We hope this will directly benefit the citizens and businesses of our community.”

The executive committee generally puts most of its concentration toward one big project each year. Last year, students noticed a need to match potential volunteers with volunteer opportunities and focused on the creation of this website.

“Westfield High School students are not strangers to volunteer work,” said Alex Gable, executive committee co-sponsor. “Many students are willing to serve and regularly donate their time to help their school and community.”

“Once all the information was gathered, Wordpress [the program used to create the website] was really easy to use,” Huser said. “We had a few checkmarks to get past, but after a couple of drafts, we were ready to present it to the city council.”

The executive committee presented the Volunteer Network to the Westfield City Council and has partnered with Mayor Andy Cook and the city.

“I am proud that these students took the initiative to actively search out the needs of the

The Volunteer Network will connect organizations like the Westfield Parks and Recreation Dept. to those willing to donate time. At May’s Community Plant Day, several high school students helped Westfield in Bloom plant purple and white petunias at Quaker and Asa Bales Parks. (Submitted photo)

Becoming involved

Any business organization interested in putting its name and volunteer opportunities on the website should contact executive committee members through Westfield High School teachers Mark Ewing and Alex Gable at ewingm@wws.k12.in.us or gablea@wws.k12.in.us. Those interested in participating in any volunteer activities available through the Volunteer Network should visit http://rockleadersvolunteer.com.

accomplished.

“It’s nice knowing that you had a part with something so helpful to the community,” Webb said.

Westfield Parks and Recreation, one of the businesses invited to join the Volunteer Network, is very pleased and appreciative to be included in the website.

“We have so many projects and events that we absolutely could not do without the help of volunteers,” Recreation Program Coordinator Stephanie Baumann said. “We are happy to be a part of anything that helps get the word out since volunteer recruitment can be very challenging.”

Baumann also says that she imagines any agency would be grateful for the help this website provides. Some of the volunteer opportunities included on the website for Parks and Recreation are getting involved in Westfield Rocks the 4th, Race Across Hamilton County, Adopt-aPrairie, and the Westfield in Bloom Committee.

While school is out for summer vacation, the Volunteer Network will be updated by students.

For next year, both Huser and Webb hope that the new executive committee members will keep the website going strong.

“We truly hope that Westfield students and citizens actually use the website,” Huser said.

“We believe that we can make Westfield a better place with these volunteer opportunities.”

Once they got the idea approved, the executive committee emailed different organizations

and asked what they should include on the website. Cook also promised to help with advertising to attract more businesses to the Volunteer Network.

After seeing the effects that the website has had on Westfield students and business so far, the executive committee members feel very

Every high school desires to make its building a better place and its students better people.

In the eyes of Westfield High School, the best way to obtain that task was by creating the Westfield Executive Committee. The committee is a key group of students who demonstrate leadership skills on a daily basis.

The 2012-2013 executive committee consisted of Lauren Huser, Shannon Webb, Nathan Manworren, Tolu Odimayomi and Jacob Tebbe. Teachers Mark Ewing and Alex Gable established the committee two years ago.

“The idea was to get good kids out and visible in the community,” Ewing said. “We also wanted to create a leadership program in the school and guide these students in becoming leaders in the student body.”

Each year, the executive committee works on a main project and completes 12 hours of community service. This year, students had to fill out an application and receive two teacher recommendation letters in hopes of gaining a spot on the committee.

Seven of the eight members graduated this year, so Ewing and Gable held a ceremony on June 3 where the new members were inducted.

Will Clinton be next president?

Drowning may not look like drowning It is our position that parents and caregivers should be aware of water safety. Scores of families will be looking for relief in area pools and lakes this summer. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, fatal drowning remains the second-leading cause of unintentional injury-related death for children age 1 to 14 years.

Drowning may not always look like drowning and often occurs without yelling or thrashing. In most cases, it is silent. Many child drownings occur with an adult within 25 yards. Riley Hospital for Children and the Indiana Child Fatality Review Team recommend the following to help keep children safe: 1. Be aware of your surroundings. Assume if there is any body of water present, it is a potential risk to a child.

2. Constant eyes-on adult supervision is the best way to prevent drowning fatalities.

3. Require children to wear properly fitted Personal Flotation Devices that are U.S. Coast Guard approved whenever near bodies of water.

4. Properly secure home swimming pools with a four-sided isolation fence, at least 5-feet high, equipped with a self-closing gate and self-latching lock.

5. When more than one adult is responsible (or present) for the supervision of children, there must be a verbal handoff when a change in care occurs.

Is your attention inside or out?

Commentary by Terry Anker Among the many choices required in life (coffee or tea; boxers or briefs; White Sox or Cubs) add to the list of those which help us define ourselves (and be defined by others) is the question at the gate before departing on an airline whether one wishes to be seated on the aisle or at a window. It is, like so many others, a simple and straight-forward question. Yet, in an instant it says so very much about how we see the world.

Freud is attributed to have said that sometimes “a cigar is just a cigar” – that everything is not a metaphor is probably good advice. But, choices matter. And during these past few years, I’ve found myself at the counter confronted with the paradox. Do I take advantage of the view or prefer the relative comfort and access afforded by the aisle seat? Is there a type amongst us who eschews one for the other, or do we each, in time, enjoy the view at the expense of freedom – or loose the window to maintain quick

access to the aisle?

In my own life, it seems, I too rarely enjoy the view. Days pass – then weeks, months and years – all with precious little attention to what’s happening just outside the window. My consideration is pulled to the artificial constant of life inside the plane.

Do we know where we are or do we simply board at birth (or marriage – or career) and then fail to look outside until the plane lands and the journey has ended? Is what really matters going on inside or outside? It is our interaction with those around us that is paramount even as the world passes under our feet? Yet can we live a full life only noting the world inside of our tiny steel tubes?

Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentincarmel. com.

Is Hillary Clinton going to run for president?

We earnestly believe that she will, and she purposely left her job as secretary of state to do a couple things on the road to victory. First, she’ll take on a little bit of plastic surgery.

Now, we want to be clear here: This neither is a criticism, nor should that comment be misconstrued as sexist. We simply believe that running for office has become, and forevermore will be, all about image.

Substance has been kicked to the curb, which easily is evidenced by the reelection of President Barack Obama. It just makes good business sense to ready your candidate, in this case Clinton, for office in the Image-ISEverything Age. She’ll then splash onto the scene, perhaps with a new book, but that’ll happen only after she gets the stain of Benghazi off her hands, so a trip to a dermatologist might be in order.

Next, she’ll work the media - granted, an easy task - knowing full well it will genuflect, as always, to her, while remarking on how wonderful she looks and offering other insipidities. Then, shortly thereafter, she’ll announce her intent to pursue the presidency.

She’ll inherit Obama’s fundraising apparatus and ground game, compliments of the deal brokered by her husband, former President Bill Clinton, in exchange for having thrown his support behind Obama’s reelection campaign. It should be terrific theatre, and you might wish to bet on Hillary winning, since we always can count on one thing: The Republicans will nominate their loser du jour, as they most always do, and proceed to run a campaign that could be bested by the average kid running for class president at a local high school.

So, then, let us flash forward to Nov. 8, 2016: “Ladies and gentlemen, the 45th president of the United States of America, Mrs. Hillary Rodham Clinton.” Again, a third party, please?

I’m Richard, but who is she?

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

This is a humor column about a serious medical concern. Everything turned out fine, but this is my one chance to write funny humor stuff about my own lung biopsy.

I hope.

When I arrived at the hospital, I met Jill, the RN, and immediately asked her whether the doctor assigned to me was good at what he did.

Jill confirmed he was “the best we have here.” I admire nurses for what they do, but I don’t think they are as forthcoming as waitresses. “How’s the tilapia tonight, Tina?”

“Not so good—it’s a little fishy. The meatloaf special is awesome, though.”

You don’t get this kind of honesty from your average nurse. “Is this Dr. Jones a good radiologist?”

“He’s no Dr. Smith, but I’m sure everything will be OK.” Jill explained to me that after the procedure I would return to the recovery area and would not be allowed out of bed for any reason for two hours. “So, I am going to encourage you to go to the bathroom now,” she said.

“How are you going to do that?” I asked.

The nurse seemed confused by my attempt at being funny, but my wife became absolutely hysterical at this remark and there was even some talk of sedating her. Nerves, I guess.

I wanted to know if I was the physician’s first patient that morning, because the needle probe requires really good aim, and I was hoping he had a chance to warm up on someone else first. When I saw the doctor, he informed me that we’d be talking to each other during the biopsy, but I would have no memory of what I said. He promised me that in the very unlikely event I said something amusing (he apparently reads my column every week), he’d note it on my chart.

During the four hours I was there, the staff constantly asked my name and date of birth, confirming that I was the right person getting the correct procedure, and also to see if the meds they had administered were affecting my ability to recall information. Sometimes the same people asked me this question over and over again, so I started to worry about their memories.

Mary Ellen came back into the recovery room and sat by the bed after lunch. Jill came in and asked my name and date of birth for the 15th time. I responded appropriately, but then just to throw her off, I asked her who the strange woman was sitting next to me.

AUTISM CLINIC OF INDIANA

New hope for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADD and ADHD Highly Trained Medical Staff • Advanced Individualized Treatment Options • Most Major Medical Insurance Plans Accepted Genetic Consultation • Review of Medical records • Laboratory testing “While early intervention is critical, ASD Treatment Clinic taught us it is never too late with children on the Autism Spectrum. We have three teenage children on the spectrum with varying ranges of disabilities. With Genetic Consultants of Indiana, ASD Treatment Clinic we learned what was happening to our children from the inside out. I call it our roadmap. We found out what our children needed without guessing or trying experimental treatments.

Plus we loved that our major medical insurance was accepted.” - Bob & Sharon Smith, IN

“A child sneaks out of the house, runs away, is hyper, has minimal focus and can’t socialize with friends for more than a minute. That used to be our son, Jack.

• SOCIALIZATION: Why is my child having difficulty making friends?

• IMPULSIVENESS: Why doesn’t my child understand consequences of his/her actions?

• FOCUSING: Why does my child have problems paying attention in school and at home?

• HYPERACTIVITY: Why can’t my child sit still, and has trouble getting to sleep or staying asleep?

• ANGER: Why does my child display such anger and gets out of control with his/her emotions?

If you can relate to any of these questions there is help.

People think the answer to autism and ADHD are psychiatric medicines, but we knew that was only going to cover up his real symptoms. Despite this, we tried several mainstream treatments that produced little to no results. In the six months that Jack has been on the protocol through ASD Treatment Clinics, he has experienced much improvement with his focus, learning ability, behavior and overall wellbeing.

Early intervention is very important for children on the autism spectrum and we thank God that we were led to the ASD Treatment Clinic. Jack now has a treatment that we can trust will improve not only his life but the lives of our entire family.”

Young talent showcased in ‘The Sound of Music’

By Patricia Rettig • editorial@youarecurrent.com Young talent from Hamilton County can now be found in Austria – or at least the fictional Austrian hills on stage at Beef theatre & Boards Dinner Theatre, 9301 N. Michigan Rd., Indianapolis, in the Rodgers & Hammerstein classic “The Sound of Music.”

Stepping into the famous shoes of the von Trapp children are Hillary Smith of Carmel (as Liesl), Kennedy Martin of Westfield (as Louisa) and Madison Moll of Fishers (as Brigitta).

Smith grew up in Carmel and graduated from Cathedral High School. She went on to graduate from Florida State University with a degree in musical theatre, and now is a performer based in New York City. She has been seen in other productions at Beef & Boards including “Church Basement Ladies” (Beverly), “Peter Pan” (Wendy), “Annie” (Tessie), and the Pyramid Players productions of “Cinderella” (Cinderella) and “Alice in Wonderland” (Alice).

Martin, 16, attends Heritage Christian School.

While this is her debut at Beef & Boards, she has performed extensively in regional theatre including the Carmel Repertory Theatre, Main Street Productions and Anderson Mainstage, and also has done some film and commercial work.

Moll, 12, attends Hamilton Southeastern Ju-

She has performed at Beef & Boards previously as a Munchkin in “The Wizard of Oz” and in the children’s choir for “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” She also has performed in numerous other regional theatre productions at Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre, Footlite Musicals and The Artists’ Studio.

On stage through June 30, “The Sound of Music” tells the true story of a young woman whose free spirit and love of music leads her down a very different path than she’d planned after she is sent to serve as governess for the seven children. Her growing rapport with the youngsters, coupled with her generosity of spirit, gradually captures the heart of their stern father, a widowed naval Captain. But World War II is imminent, and their romance will be tested before they’ve been able to truly begin their new life together.

Tickets range from $37.50 to $62.50 and include Chef Odell Ward’s family-friendly dinner buffet, fruit and salad bar, and select beverages.

As Beef & Boards’ featured family show, “The Sound of Music” offers $10 discounts off tickets for all children ages 3 to 15. Discounts are also available for groups of 20 or more.

Cuban Marinated Steak

Ingredients: 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons Montreal-style steak seasoning, 2 1/4 teaspoons lime juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano and 1 1/2 pounds beef rib-eye steaks Directions: Put a small skillet over medium heat and place cumin seeds in it. Stir them constantly until they are dark brown and smell toasted, which should take about one minute. Immediately after this step, pour them into a bowl to stop them from continuing to cook. Mix them in with orange juice, vegetable oil, steak seasoning, lime juice and oregano in a bowl. Put the steaks in a large plastic bag that can be resealed, and then pour the orange juice marinade on the steaks.

Squeeze the air out of the bag; seal it and turn it over multiple times to coat the steaks

in the marinade. Refrigerate the bag and its contents for a minimum of 30 minutes. If you want more flavor, leave it in longer. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil its grate. Take the steaks out of the marinade.

Shake off any excess marinade and toss out whatever marinade remains. Grill the steaks until their outsides are seared, but they still have a slightly-pink center. That should take 6 to 8 minutes on each side. If you’re using an instant-read meat thermometer to check your steak’s temperature, insert it sideways into the center of the thickest steak.

baking soda and salt. Beat butter, milk, peanut butter, white sugar and brown sugar together in a separate bowl until the contents become light and fluffy. Beat the eggs in one at time, so that each egg blends into the butter mixture before the next gets put in. Beat in vanilla extract with the last egg. Stir the oat mixture in until it’s well blended. Next, fold the peanut butter chips in, mixing just enough to evenly combine. Refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Drop 1-inch spoonfuls of the dough onto ungreased baking sheets. Make sure they are 2 inches apart. Bake until the cookie centers are set. That should take 10 to 12 minutes.

Question from Clara O. from West Clay: I saw two cars collide in a roundabout on my way home recently. I’ve never Insurance been in an accident and was wondering what I’m supposed to do if my luck runs out?

Response from Jamie Ianigro: I hope your lucky streak continues. An auto accident, no matter how minor, is a scary thing to experience. Your independent insurance agent should be able to provide you with a card to keep in your glove box of everything you need to do if an accident occurs. Here is what we recommend.

1. Take a deep breath and assess the situation. Get your vehicle and passengers out of further harm if the vehicle is still operable.

2. Make sure that no one in your vehicle requires immediate medical attention.

Check the occupants of any other vehicle involved next.

3. Call the police. It doesn’t matter how minor the accident is. Having a police report filed will make your claim process much smoother.

4. Exchange insurance information and record the details. Make sure the other driver’s insurance is not out of date. Get their phone number, address, license plate number and the make and model of their

car to make filing your claim easier.

5. Pull out your camera phone and snap some pictures of your car from every angle and of any damage it now has.

6. Obtain a copy of the police report and call your independent agent to file a claim.

Driving without insurance coverage in Indiana is illegal and a great way to end up with a suspended license or serious financial problems if you are involved in an accident. The starting point for insurance in Indiana is the required state minimum coverages. The minimums are $25,000 per injured person, $50,000 per accident and $10,000 for property damage. The current cost of medical expenses and auto repair make it pretty easy to see that those amounts are not going to get you very far when it comes time to settle a claim. They also provide you zero protection from motorists that drive around without insurance or with the inadequate state minimum insurance.

I recommend limits of $250,000 per injured person, $500,000 per accident and $100,000 for property damage with an endorsement to protect you from uninsured and underinsured motorists.

If only you weren’t afraid

Commentary by Kristen Boice

Does fear prevent you from doing what you really want to do with your life? Does fear keep you stuck? Are you afraid to fail or speak your truth? If you weren’t afraid, what advice would you do differently?

A state of fear creates anxiety and that anxiety can run our lives. We are looking for security and certainty and ways to manage our anxiety. We want things to feel safe, secure and somewhat predictable. Many want to know what is coming next and really don’t like change because they are afraid of it. So we live our lives trying to create certainty and play it safe. One day, you wake up and realize that you feel stuck and are ready to not let fear dominate your thinking and decisions.

It is absolutely possible to conquer a fear. It starts with a desire to face it.

Below are a few initial steps to begin the process of moving through fears to get to the other side.

Sit down and write about what you would do or change if you had no fear. What is your vision? What would be different? What do you want to change? Can you imagine living your life without constant fear? Are you willing to let it go?

Identify your blocking beliefs and when and where the fear began. Where did these beliefs come from? Are they old? Do they hold you back? When did the fear begin? How old were

you? These are key questions to begin unpacking the fear and not letting it take over and control you. Fears often come from past experiences. It’s important to reflect on them and how they have played a role in your life. We can make a conscious choice to not let them control our way of life.

Build a strong support network. Surround yourself with people that encourage you and help you step outside of your comfort zone to grow and evolve. Ask for help if you need it to not let it control your thoughts and beliefs.

Be willing to be uncomfortable. Sometimes we have to move through the discomfort in order to overcome and work through the fear. Be willing to take a chance knowing the payoffs are significant.

Reframe what failure means. Does failure mean the end of the world? Absolutely not. It means you learn the lesson you need to grow to the next level. Everything in our lives is a learning opportunity. The greatest leaders make uncomfortable decisions and move through their fears to align with what they believe is the right decision.

This will be one of the best decisions you will ever make. It might be hard work, but it is so worth it.

Just a few miles from Agra’s Taj Mahal, built by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan, is a much less famous building erected by Akbar, travel his grandfather. That building and the emperor who designed it are symbols of human tolerance and understanding that deserve to be much better known.

Akbar was the grandson of Babur, the founder of the Mughal Empire. He became ruler of a small region in northern India in 1555 at the age of 13 or 14. A few battles later, his empire included much of northern and central India.

Although born into a strict Sunni Muslim family, Akbar became fascinated with the different religions of the people living in the lands he had conquered. He was particularly intrigued by a Sufi mystic named Salim Chishti. To honor Salim, Akbar built a magnificent walled city around Salim’s camp in the desert west of Agra. Fatehpur Sikri, begun in 1571, became Akbar’s capital.

Fatehpur Sikri included a red sandstone building called “Diwan-i-Khas” or the “Hall of Private Audiences” where Akbar regularly met with intellectuals representing the many different religions of his empire. Akbar and his guests debated the truth of the claims of their respective religions.

From these debates, Akbar concluded that some religious claims were not true. But Akbar also came to believe that all religions reflect common truths. Among these common truths was the value of piety, prudence, abstinence and kindness. Akbar’s tolerance of other religions resulted in his abolition of many restrictions that earlier Mughal rulers had imposed on their nonMuslim subjects.

The quest for truth and harmony at Fatehpur Sikri came to a halt after Akbar’s death in 1605.

Later rulers rejected as heresy his view that all religions contain truths. The entire city was abandoned, probably because its location, far from the nearest river, made supplying adequate water impossible.

But the dry desert air helped preserve Fatehpur Sikri and the square building where Akbar demonstrated religious tolerance. Both for that tolerance and his military skill, history has appended “the Great” to Akbar’s name. That appellation, rarely used since, awaits a successor.

Navigating conditional statements Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “In the following hypothetical example, is Dick considered a ‘trustee in trust,’ or only Sue? Example: grammar guy ‘I, Tom, give my antique tractor to my son Dick, if he survives me, and if not, then to my daughter Sue, as trustee in trust for my grandson Harry.’”

(Phil Pegram) Answer: Thanks for writing in, Phil. I like this question a lot. We’ll get to have a logic and grammar lesson all in one.

What we have here is called a “conditional sentence.” You see these in mathematics and computer programming a lot, the standard example being “if p, then q.” In English, the bulk of conditional sentences use an “if-then” structure: If p is true, then q is true.

As you have probably noticed, conditional sentences are made up of two clauses: a dependent clause which lays out the condition, called the “protasis,” and a main clause, called the “apodosis,” which lays out the consequences if the former clause is true. You will never hear those words again outside of a grammar class, so feel free to just focus on the main and dependent clauses.

Some conditional statements have multiple possible consequences depending upon the condition. These will often be “if-then-else” statements, as our example sentence today is. In an

“if-then-else” statement, there are two (or more) possible outcomes with each outcome being mutually exclusive of the other. For example: “If my car will start, then I will drive to work, else I will walk.” You cannot both drive and walk to work at the same time (unless you’re Fred Flintstone). In an “if-then-else” statement, one outcome invalidates another.

Before we get to our initial question, it’s worth noting that “if not” and “else” are synonymous with one another, and are often used interchangeably. So now, let’s reorder our will a bit to make the clause clearer: “If my son Dick survives me, then I, Tom, give my antique tractor to him, else then to my daughter, Sue, as trustee in trust for my grandson Harry.” If Dick survives his father, then he gets the tractor, else Sue will hold it for her son, Harry. Sue is the only “trustee in trust” in this situation.

Understanding conditional statements is very important to modern life: If I flip off this light switch, then the room will go dark. If I press my keyboard just so, then a grammar column will appear. If someone starts talking about the “protasis” and “apodosis,” I will call him a nerd. It’s just cause and effect.

Plastic decking may be the midwest answer

Commentary by Randy Sorrell

For many reasons, concrete patios and decks seem to have the unfortunate reputation of being outdated. It’s time to OUTdoors expand our biased vision. We love using all sorts of materials and often let the budget, style of the home and neighborhood vibe encourage the material selection. Done correctly, concrete patios and decks can look incredibly relevant. This stunning project is a bright testimony.

The tired, treated pine decking was in anxious need of updating and now nicely reflects the homeowners’ gift of modern decorating and active lifestyle. Azek, a low maintenance deck material, in classic brownstone color was selected for the flooring with a stunning white contrast for the step risers and handrail. Hidden fasteners were used that cause the decking to resemble a clean piece of furniture, void of screws that can interrupt a clean view.

While composite decking material has been a popular choice for homeowners, we have discovered that many composites do not perform well and are prone to extreme fading and algae issues. Which is precisely the reason we were moving away from wood. After research and experience, we have landed with a few low maintenance deck materials that are standing up well to our brutal, mid-west four seasons of abuse coupled with a few other nasty visitors…

Dark plastic decking with a white railing makes this deck feel more like a custom piece of furniture than a dated outdoor space. (Submitted photo) acid rain and pollution.

Azek decking is 100-percent plastic, a “new generation” of low maintenance deck material that is scratch, fade and stain resistant. Important attributes for busy families. Black aluminum decorative spindles give way to full view of the lake and beautiful surrounds, smartly landscaped (not our design or installation) for just the right volume of privacy and intrigue.

Creating a functional kitchen to inspire your inner chef

Commentary by David Decker

Kitchens are designed to accommodate many household activities, from entertaining guests to serving as a homework and indoors study area. Yet, sometimes we forget the most important function of a kitchen: an effective cooking space.

Whether you are a budding celebrity chef, or novice learning the basics, a few adjustments to your kitchen can make it easier to prepare, serve and clean up after meals.

When planning the ideal cooking space, you’ll want to think about the overall layout of your kitchen. You’ll likely want to organize the kitchen with areas dedicated to cooking, storage and cleanup. Most modern kitchens are designed with a “work triangle” in place. The range, refrigerator and sink are all centered around a triangle shape, to make navigating back and forth between these areas easier. If the triangle is too small, the kitchen can tend to feel cramped, but if the triangle is too large, it can make cooking difficult. Obviously, the size and shape of each person’s kitchen varies, so this design strategy is not a hard and fast rule. Just be sure that you can reach each major cooking appliance without too much effort. Measuring and adequately using the space is key.

Once you have drawn out the ideal space for your appliances, you can focus on a cabinetry and countertop design. Cabinetry that features

faucets, you can fill pots with water right over the stove without having to move them to the sink.

Cooking can be quite the adventure, so you’ll want to make sure you have all the tools you need to be successful. In the end, the most functional kitchen space will help cook tasty meals with speed and creativity.

A well-designed kitchen can make cooking an easier task. (Submitted photo)

roll-out drawers, lazy-susans and other built-in organizational tools (like spice racks) can help you organize and keep cooking supplies within easy reach. You may also want to consider installing cabinetry with under-cabinet task lighting to brighten things up and make it easier to cook. When choosing a countertop, easy to clean surfaces are crucial to consider. Solid surface, stainless-steel, Quartz and natural stone are all excellent choices because they are easy to clean

and look great.

If you’ve ever heard the phrase “everything but the kitchen sink,” you know that a great deal of cooking revolves around the sink. Serious cooks may want to install more than one sink, simply to make cleanup a bit easier. A wide, deep sink is ideal for scrubbing large pots and pans that may not be dishwasher safe. Speaking of heavy pots, many cooks recommend installing a water source near your stovetop. With these helpfully located
