Writing therapy leads to poetry book

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Mired in a four-month bout of depression, Anna Skinner embraced her own form of self-help. new release “Writing has always been a therapy to me,” Skinner said.

Makes sense. Skinner, 21, a Current newspaper writer and copy editor, has been dabbling in fiction writing since she was in third or fourth grade.

“Poetry just made me feel better,” the 2013 Westfield High School graduate said. “I never thought of publishing it. I have a hard time sharing my creative writing.”

Yet her close bond with younger brother, Michael, allowed her to let her guard down, and she shared her poems with him this spring.

“He’s kind of a creative soul,” Skinner said.

“He encouraged me to publish it. I’ve been trying to finish a fiction novel, and he said, ‘Why don’t you just publish the poetry book?’”

So that’s what she has done, publishing a 60-page book of poems called “Rise” on June 14.

Most of the poetry is fiction.

“But the poems are based on my depression and my struggle with it,” said Skinner, who hopes the poems might help others dealing with depression.

Depression tends to run in her family. She had struggled with it during high school but never as severe as the bout that hit her from December to early March.

Beyond her predisposition to depression, Skinner began to realize she was headed in the wrong direction with her future. She was majoring in English Education at IUPUI. She said at the time she believed it was a more practical major than creative writing or journalism.

“I’ve always had a selfless attitude,” she said.

“I wanted to make other people happy before I was happy. That’s good to an extent, but I got

to the point where I was completely miserable.

I was going to college just because I thought that was what I was supposed to do. My older brother graduated early, and he’s a chemist. It had never been an option to not go to college.”

Skinner had wanted to go to college, too, graduating high school with a high GPA. She transferred from Indiana University to IUPUI after her freshman year.

“I was struggling financially because I didn’t expect to live alone at 20,” she said. “I was going to school and working full time (as a waitress) and going for a degree I didn’t even want.”

Skinner dropped out of IUPUI in the middle of the second semester. That’s when the depression pounded the goal-oriented Skinner harder.

“I felt I was at a standstill,” Skinner said. “I’m not a typical college dropout. And I wasn’t made for the restaurant life. So I was really miserable because I felt stuck.”

Along with poetry, Skinner said her depression disappeared as her writing workload increased with Current.

“I have something to focus on that I can put all my hard work into,” she said.

Now that she has her first published book she has been encouraged to turn back to finishing her novel.

“Holding your own book in your hands is very intoxicating,” she said.

Skinner’s book can be purchased in print for $9.99 through Amazon (amazon.com/Rise-AnnaSkinner/dp/1511957727) and CreateSpace (createspace.com/5466472).

Westfield welcomes all with open arms

Commentary by Erin Murphy

Westfield Welcome is a term that was created one year ago. The Westfield Communications Department coined the phrase when city a gap was identified; the resident and visitor experience.

Thousands travel from near and far to experience Grand Park. What many of them fail to recognize is they are visiting Westfield, one of the greatest places to live, work and play. Westfield Welcome is the tool that will keep them coming back for more.

If you head out to Grand Park you might

notice the orange shirts ready to greet you.

The person wearing that shirt is most likely a Westfield resident excited to show off one of the largest sports parks in the nation. That volunteer is eager and willing to share their wealth of knowledge about all things Westfield, whether it be the nearest place to get gas or directing Grand Park visitors to see and experience downtown Westfield.

Westfield Welcome is not just for the visitor.

Residents can find out all things Westfield from the schools to the chamber and everything in between.

Want to get involved? Email Westfield’s hos-

pitality and volunteer coordinator, Erin Shockley, at eshockley@westfield.in.gov. Want to know more? Head to Facebook or Twitter and search “Westfield Welcome”. There, you can get a good sampling of all things Westfield. Soon you will be able to check out our website, which will have everything you ever wanted to know; www.westfieldwelcome.com.

Party on the Patio draws crowd

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

Family is

Despite it being the first time for rain at Party on the Patio since they started the monthly occurrence, members of event the public attended the open, free event from 5 to 8 p.m.

Ken Kingshill, executive director of the Downtown Westfield Association said this is the third year for the events. Typically they are held about once a month from April to November.

“When we started off, we figured we would have 40 or 50 people,” Kingshill said. “The first event brought in 70 or 80. Sometimes we get a couple hundred.”

The events began as a way to use the patio space of the Downtown Westfield Association’s property. Kingshill said it wasn’t being used for anything and they wanted to change that. Party on the Patio uses the donated furniture and neat little outdoor space, but Kingshill said the association would love if the public used the space for eating lunch on their work breaks or using it as a picnic area.

Attendees ranged from well-known Westfield officials including the mayor, councilors and parks employees to the general public, who enjoyed live music, free food and drinks,

“We want to showcase the downtown merchants and what they do,” Kingshill said.

“This is a way to get people to know these establishments are there and gives people an excuse to come downtown every now and again.”

The event is always an open house, and the public is welcome to stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time.

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Westfield’s annual fireworks show and Fourth of July celebration started from a combination of July 4th spirit cover story and a battle of the bands event.

A local youth pastor approached the parks department asking to hold a battle of the bands event. As the department had already begun the planning of a Fourth of July celebration in late 2009, they decided to combine the two to create a day-long celebration.

The first Westfield Rocks the 4th took place in 2010 and started at 9 a.m.

Westfield Parks and Recreation director Melody Jones said that although the battle of the bands event was fun, it was not something the department wanted to repeat as it lasted way too long.

Jones After the first year, Westfield Rocks the 4th morphed into a Fourth of July celebration that began at 4 p.m. instead of in the morning, and hosted a variety of vendors and family-fun activities.

“Westfield Rocks the 4th is about Westfield and it is for Westfield,” Jones said. “The greatest compliment we receive is that the day is all about the family. We have something for everyone in your family. ... Asa Bales Park is a beautiful setting. Kids can play without worry and families can connect with friends and neighbors.”

Jones said some of the events include a car show, a kids area, food vendors and a marketplace.

“Not Your Average Boy Band” will be opening for “London Rose” in terms of music.

She described her favorite part of the event as being after the headliner band finishes performing.

“That’s when the crowd is the largest and

we turn our attention to the reason we are celebrating,” she said. “We have the Honor Guard from the Westfield American Legion Post 318 and the Westfield VFW Post 10207 present the colors and honor our service men and women. This year we will have Westfield’s own Carol Ann Woelfel sing the National Anthem and read the Declaration of Independence. It is very moving.”

Fireworks will begin after that ceremony.

Mayor Andy Cook only had good things to say about Westfield Rocks the 4th and en-

couraged people to come to the event.

“Westfield Rocks the 4th showcases all the best our community has to offer: friendship, fun and a deep love of country. I look forward to seeing everyone at this year’s event,” he said.

Westfield begins planning the next event immediately after the current one ends. The event takes months to plan, and Jones said the department tries to add something new each year.

“It does not get any better than this,” she said. “Westfield Rocks the 4th has something for everyone and it is right here in your backyard.”

Color Guard inspires respect

F R O M T HE B A C K SH O P He’s telling us the truth, folks It strikes us that Thomas Sowell - a brilliant man, in our opinion, and a fellow of the Hoover Institute as well as a syndicated columnist – delivered a pinpoint hit on something we’ve thought for some time. It all has to do with the new buzzphrase, “microaggression.” He wrote recently, “Professors at the University of California-Berkeley (home of the Speech-Free Zone; yes, indeed) have been officially warned against saying such things as ‘America is the land of opportunity.’

Why? Because this is considered to be an act of ‘micro-aggression’ against minorities and women. Supposedly it shows that you don’t take their grievances seriously and are therefore guilty of being aggressive toward them, even if only on a micro scale.” By using similar examples and effectively portraying it as so much hogwash, he brought the liberals out of the bushes by the bushels, probably because what he wrote makes so much sense that they can’t comprehend. That, folks, is pathetic. You can’t make it up. We strongly agree with Sowell on a lot of points, but chiefly this one: “The concept of microaggression is just one of many tactics used to stifle differences of opinion by declaring some opinions to be ‘hate speech,’ instead of debating those differences in a marketplace of ideas. To accuse people of aggression for not marching in lockstep with political correctness is to set the stage for justifying real aggression against them.” Liberals may not be aiming at autocracy, but, in Sowell’s words, “their know-it-all mindset leads repeatedly and pervasively in that direction, even if by small steps, each of which might be called “micro-totalitarianism.”

Surfing the mob

Commentary by Terry Anker

It is a funny thing, this expressing oneself in a public forum. One takes complex ideas and works to distill them into a few hundred words. If done right, these carefully selected syllables make a point, in the most economical fashion, while retaining a modicum of good humor. If one misses the mark, readers will misunderstand, disagree or worse, disregard the intended idea expressed. It is for this very reason that politics, though alluring for its import (and often salacious subject matter), is particularly difficult to fairly express. But, newspapers may be the ideal place for such discourse – so, we trudge onward.

But if asked should businesses and notfor-profits take a political stand, my instinct is to employ the greatest of caution. Over the years, those organizations in my sway have worked to assert a solid pro-freedom position – whether that is gender equality or religious in nature – but also to know that we do not have the think-tank-capac-

ity to evaluate these political measures in their depth.

Unfortunately, it seems increasingly difficult for even individuals to express a point of view when they ascend to institutional leadership. Some tabloids have taken to printing the names of employers of elected officials with whom they disagree. We can assume retribution was to be the objective. In one recent example, comments following such an online attack article suggested aggressive action be taken towards the grocery chain Kroger. Unfortunately, no one on the long list of supposed wrong-doers were employees of the food company; instead they were from a law firm of a similar moniker.

Mobs turn quickly and can be very dangerous. Surfing upon them can be exhilarating, no doubt, but is it worth the risk?

Q U O T E O F T HE WEE K The toughest thing about success is that you’ve got to keep on being a success.

– Irving Berlin

It’s happened again, friends. One of my long-held beliefs has fallen wayside. Much like Tae Kwon Do, I have a new-found respect for Color Guard. humor Guard, for you amateurs, is the performance counterpart to marching band, aka “the girls with the flags.”

Before my oldest daughter joined the high school team, I had them pegged as being not quite athletic enough to play sports or musical enough to be in the band. Basically, I assumed they’d all been cut from cheerleading.

Granted, I had absolutely no basis for these claims, and in fact, never knew a single person involved in Guard. But I was certain I didn’t want my kids participating.

My apologies to all Guard families! I couldn’t have been more wrong in my judgey analysis! My rising ninth grader has been hard at work for a month (yes, they started in May), and I have already seen a huge difference in her confidence and work ethic.

Not that she was lacking in the self-esteem department, but since her younger sister got heavy into competitive dance, I’ve sensed some jealousy and a tad bit of “I wish I could wear make-up and costumes and be centerstage, too.”

Enter Guard. After two intense weeks of learning basic flag holding, spinning and tossing, and then a choreography mini-camp, the team put on a preview show. My husband and I were absolutely blown away. Our often goofy, in-the-middle-of-teenage-awkward-phase, sometimes-personal-hygienechallenged daughter suddenly transformed into a gorgeous, graceful and strong young woman who had beautiful lines and facial expression. How did this happen?

Turns out, Guard’s secret is building team spirit and togetherness through hard work and accountability. They focus on the whole person, with equal parts physical, emotional and mental exercises to get these girls to believe in themselves and to push for perfection. Our daughter is exhausted almost every night, but I’ve never seen her so passionate about anything.

So thank you, Color Guard, for opening my eyes to your worth. I’m looking forward to adding “Guard Mom” to my minivan! Peace out.

Designing woman

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

I don’t want to spend the money; I don’t think we will get a good return on our investment; the house will be a total humor mess for six weeks; and, I really don’t care if we have soft-close cabinet doors and roll-out pantry shelves.

I only agreed to remodel the kitchen because I was sure that once the construction began, I’d find lots of humorous things to write about, which is way more important to me than granite counter tops with beveled (or did we decide on rounded?) edges.

Hiring the right people to do the kitchen is my wife’s job. Her criteria involve careful perusal of catalogs and confirming ratings on Angie’s List. Several design people came to our house to offer ideas. “Did you like the proposal from the guy at Kitchens Galore?” asked Mary Ellen.

“Not really,” I said. “I don’t think he is going to be funny to work with.”

“You mean ‘fun’ to work with?”

“No,‘funny.’ I’m not shelling out big bucks and then have nothing to show for it.”

“Is that why you wanted to go with me when I looked for kitchen lighting?”

“Yes, I thought you would be funny looking.”

“Excuse me?”

“Let me re-punctuate that. I thought you’d be funny, looking. You’d be walking up and down the aisles examining fixtures, asking about wattage and lumens. Gotta be laughs in that.”

My life is spent hoping I can turn something into a funny story. My supplemental health plan notified me they could not cover my prostate exam because they had me listed as a woman. “Why are you happy about this?” asked Mary Ellen, who, by the way, was almost 100 percent sure that it was a mistake.

“Because when I tell them I am on Medicare, they’ll ask me which parts. And I can say: ‘The parts you’re not covering.’”

Completely remodeling our kitchen will create a major disruption in our lives. Making this commitment is not a laughing matter. But I’m hoping to change that.

Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre celebrates 100 years with gala

By Sam Robinson • news@currentinwestfield.com

Supporters of the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre celebrated its 100th anniversary at the historic Booth Tarkington house on Indianapolis’ near anniversary north side on June 20.

The gala event raised over $61,000 for the community theatre, which is one of the oldest in the country. The theatre also raised over $9,000 from online donations the previous day.

John Hedges, the executive director of the theatre, said that community support allows the theatre to inspire young people.

“Engendering a sense of hope in young people is at the core of our education system and at the Civic Theatre,” Hedges said. “Theatre at its best is where you go to gain your sense of humanity.”

The Civic Theatre offers classes to children, young adults and adults that want to act.

“I’m so proud of everything Civic does,” Brent Marty, the director of music and education, said. “I feel we do quality work.”

Attendees saw the Junior Civic group perform a number from “Alice in Wonderland.” They also saw Park Tudor student Nick Gehring perform a song from “Oklahoma!” Adult actors Katie Schuman and Tobin Strader then performed a song from “Spamalot.”

“The reason why we’re here is because everyone here has done something to help Civic Theatre,” Hedges said.

Alyssa Boge, a volunteer curator with the theatre, helped organize a collection of historic memorabilia. She said that famous author and dramatist Booth Tarkington

(Left) Chairman of the Civic Theatre board of trustees, Connie Horwitz, spoke after receiving an award to recognize her service to the theatre.

once noted that the Civic Theatre performed one of his plays better than Broadway.

Boge said that the theatre formed 100 years ago because everyday people wanted to see shows.

“It was starting because there wasn’t a lot of theatre in Indianapolis,” Boge said.

The theatre’s next show is “Oklahoma!” which runs from July 23 to the 26. Tickets are on sale at civictheatre.org

Lions Parks to host annual summer concert series

By Joseph Knoop • news@currentinwestfield.com The Zionsville Lions Club’s July Concert Series is bringing four separate free concerts for the public throughout the month of July.

2015’s series’ theme “Movie Musical Magic Brings music Broadway Across America” plans to bring a number of show-tune-themed performances to the Lions Club in Zionsville.

“I’m a Yankee Doodle Dandy: A Salute to America From Broadway and Hollywood,” directed by John Richardson and performed by the Zionsville Concert Band is scheduled for July 5. Featured soloists are Kathy and Tim Haines.

“Immortal Showtunes From Broadway,” directed by Samuel Rhinesmith and performed by the New Horizon Band is scheduled for July 12.

“Highlights and Songs From Broadway at the Movies,” directed

by Will Frazier and performed by the Swing Shift Indy Jazz Band is scheduled for July 19.

“Broadway Gold From Broadway’s Biggest Hits,” directed by Dr. Daniel Zolin and performed by the Indianapolis Municipal Band is scheduled for July 26.

“I started this series because families seldom have good family time,” Joyce Davis said. Davis has been the concert director for the Zionsville Lions Club for 11 years. “I wanted a wholesome environment for children and their parents to come.”

Each concert begins at 7 p.m. at the Lions Clubhouse at 115 S Elm St. in Zionsville with sound provided by David Thompson. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs. Refreshments are provided for a donation.

“I wanted them to hear music that will be around 100 years from now because it’s been around 50 to 80 years already,” Davis said.

“It’s lasting music that won’t just come and go as a fad. It’s such a thrill to me when people say ‘thank you so much.’”

A Costa Rican classic Commentary by Ceci Martinez Take a virtual trip to beautiful Costa Rica!

“Gallo Pinto” (“Speckled Rooster” for the color of rice and beans together), is a very popular breakfast dish.

Note: The secret for delicious plantains is to let them ripe until the peel becomes black and soft. You can find plantains in most markets but they are rarely sold as ripe as you want them for the “Gallo Pinto” recipe. Place them inside a brown bag to speed up ripening.

GALLO PINTO Serve: 4 / Cook: 20 minutes Ingredients: 2 cups pre-cooked white rice, or left over rice, 1 (16 oz.) can of black beans, Pinch of cumin, Salt and pepper to taste, About 8 sweet bell peppers, finely chopped, Handful of cherry tomatoes, cut in half, 1 onion, finely chopped, 2 over-ripe plantains, 4 eggs Directions: Preheat canola oil. Peel plantains, slice into diagonal 1/4 thick pieces and add them to hot oil.

Fry until golden brown on each side, about 2-3 minutes per side [let you dad or mom take care of this step- hot oil burns]. Place fried plantains on napkin to absorb excess oil.

(Photo by Ceci Martinez)

Cook onion until brown, add bell peppers and cherry tomatoes; cumin, salt and pepper to taste. In a microwave oven heat rice and black beans in separate containers. Panfry eggs sunny side up.

Assemble your ingredients: fill 1/2 cup with rice, add two spoonfuls of onion/pepper/ tomato mix and fill up cup with rice, and invert over plate.

Surround rice “volcano” with egg, plantain and a slice of avocado.

Get fit with your little one Commentary by Kara Babcock Summer is finally here! Not only is the warm, sunny weather a great time for cookouts, going to the zoo and exercise baseball games, but it’s also a great time to get outside and exercise with your little ones.

With all Hamilton County has to offer here are a few of Baby Boot Camp-Carmel, Noblesville and Fishers recommendations on some fun and easy places to get exercise this summer.

Park: The park is by far the best place to get fit! You can use the benches, swings, slides and monkey bars as your exercise equipment by doing push-ups, pull-ups or planks. In addition, while you are getting exercise, your little one is having a blast playing.

Walking trails: In Hamilton County, we have so many great walking tails. For example, take a family walk or bike ride down the Monon Trail. It will be a great way to get outside, get fresh air and bond with your baby. If you want to add a little more cardio to your walk, you can run with your stroller, or do high knees while running with your stroller or walking stroller lunges.

Backyard: The most convenient is to make

(Submitted photo)

use of your back yard. If your child is old enough to walk, get a sprinkler out and play in the water. If they are old enough to run, you can both take turns running thru the water to cool off while also getting a little cardio. Other fun ways to get a little cardio are to get your neighbors and play a fun game of tag or whiffle ball. Your little ones will love playing and also seeing their parents laugh and have fun.

WHAT TO EXPECT: The Dangers of Social Media During Divorce I can see what you see. The proliferation of social media has allowed us to share events with friends and family across the globe. Through pictures, tweets, status updates and a host of sites, a virtual travelogue of someone’s life is available. . .to everyone. In the world of divorce litigation, however, this has given rise to an entirely new method of collecting information and, ultimately, evidence to put before a court charged with deciding divisions of assets and custody of children. With the popularity of social media, the internet is filled with information from online profiles. Users who are unaware of the broad availability of this information to a former spouse or opposing counsel are posting at their own risk. With so much of what is posted being available to “share,” it is nearly impossible to control access to this information. Further, as part of information exchanges common to divorce proceedings, it is now common to request the entire history of a Twitter account or Facebook page, so even if your privacy settings would not allow the former spouse or counsel to see your account in real time, they will get to comb over all your pictures and posts to pick out those which can cast you in a negative light.

Tweeting evidence. That great picture of you and a bunch of friends doing shots before the concert received 62 “likes,” 22 “comments,” and 5 “shares.” Now it’s being presented to a Court to show that you left the children with a sitter while you went out and got drunk. Fair or unfair, in the hands of

an experienced litigator that post can speak volumes about your priorities, bad habits and even the quality of your parenting. That “vent” about how the children would be so much better off if your ex joined the Peace Corps and vanished from their lives? It’s being presented to argue that you’ve done all you can to alienate the children. These are just examples of “normal” interactions through social media that, in the context of a contested divorce, can be damaging to your position and compromise your arguments to a court.

How is it used? The Indiana Court of Appeals recently ruled that witness testimony identifying a Twitter account taken together with the posted content was enough to authenticate that the account belonged to a criminal defendant without the identification of the account by the defendant himself. Of course, the most common way for that evidence to make it before the Court will be to have the actual person identify the account and the questionable position during cross-examination. Don’t let this be you!

At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, custody, support, or any other family law concerns contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com.

Home sales up 5.6 percent Commentary by Jim Litten With average home prices reaching $178,606, year-to-date sales prices increased by 5.6 percent in the nine real estate counties that F.C. Tucker tracks. Tucker’s data indicates that seven counties experienced slightly higher home sales prices than in May 2014. Hamilton County was among the areas where sales increased – rising by 4.6 percent to $272,722.

• Westfield is among the areas where prices are trending up. For the first five months of this year, sale prices averaged $297,952, an increase of 9.1 percent compared to the same time period last year.

• Of the pended home sales in Westfield, one was priced $1,000,000 to $1,999,999; three were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 12 were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 26 were priced $200,000 to 299,999 and 36 were priced $100,000 to $199,999.

• Homes in Westfield are selling at a slower pace. Year to date, homes are staying on the market 72 days, an increase of

eight days compared to last year.

• Home buyers in Westfield are discovering fewer options. Last month, 237 homes were available, a decline of 14 homes compared to May 2014.

• On a monthly basis, pended home sales slipped in Westfield. In May 2015, 78 homes pended, slipping by 26 homes compared to May 2014.

With 2,910 pended sales in May in Central Indiana, overall year-to-date home sales are up 9 percent compared to this time period last year. On a monthly basis, May 2015 pended home sales slipped 3.9 percent compared to May 2014, a decline of 117 homes sold.

With only 3.8 months of inventory available in Central Indiana, we’re definitely experiencing a seller’s market. Sellers are benefitting from rising prices as inventory continues to tighten.

Question: “Just found out there is a definition for ‘dote’ I was not aware of. To me it has always been ‘to show grammar guy excessive love or fondness.’ Ex: She loves to dote on her children. Then while looking up the word, I find it is, also, ‘to be foolish, or feeble-minded’ especially as a result of senility. WOW! I could have called someone ‘a dotage’ or ‘dotard’, and they may not have felt so insulted. Haha. The things one finds in the dictionary … it never ends.” -- (Clem Sare) Answer: Clem, you can call anyone you want a “dotard” … as long as it isn’t me.

Since you bring it up, “dotage” is an interesting word. It’s not one you hear very often either, so I thought it would be fun to write about.

As you said earlier, to “dote” is either to exhibit mental decline similar to old age or to be lavish or excessive in one’s attention. It’s a dichotomy a Spartan would laugh at – if Spartans were prone to laughing.

“Dotage,” though, only has one meaning – maybe. Both Oxford and Merriam-Webster only seem to recognize “dotage” as meaning “the period of life in which a person is old and weak.” So you wouldn’t call someone “a dotage,” but rather say they are in “their dotage.”

Other, less reputable dictionaries, however, offer a second “nouning of the verb,” if you will. To wit: Defining “dotage” as “excessive or foolish affection.”

Now, I can’t say I’ve ever heard “dotage” to mean anything other than the definition Oxford and MerriamWebster list. If anything, I would think it would be more common to use the gerund “doting” if one wanted to talk about the aforementioned excessive and foolish affection.

But, then again, who am I to say? I’m just a Grammar Guy.

… you can call anyone you want a “dotard” … as long as it isn’t me.

The Capitol: Homage to Roman Gods?

Commentary by Don Knebel The Capitol in Washington, D.C., is among the most-recognizable buildings in the world.

Even the name of this symbol travel of American democracy mirrors European religious buildings, some of them pagan.

In 1791, Pierre L’Enfant, a French-born artist, developed a plan for a new government city along the Potomac River, choosing Jenkins Hill for the “Congress House.” Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson renamed both the hill and the proposed building after Rome’s Capitoline Hill, the site of the ancient temple to Jupiter Optimus Maximus Capitolinus. Jefferson then suggested that those submitting designs for the new Capitol should evoke the Pantheon, a second century domed temple to all Roman gods. William Thornton, a Scottish-trained physician living in the West Indies, submitted the winning design, incorporating elements of the Pantheon into the section between the legislative chambers, with a low dome centered on columns, supporting a classic pediment. These design elements were modified, but all were included in the original Capitol, which was finally completed in 1818 after being damaged in the War of 1812.

By 1850, Congress had outgrown the legis-

lative chambers and approved adding a new chamber at each end of the existing Capitol.

The existing dome then appeared too small in relation to the larger building. Like the Pantheón, the Capitol now incorporates a “double dome,” the inner section, scaled to fit the original rotunda, and the outer section, scaled to the larger exterior.

Because the cast iron was showing signs of deterioration, the Capitol dome has been

under repair since 2014. The history of the dome and illustrations of the Capitol designs since 1792 can be reviewed in the massive underground visitors’ center, opened in 2008.

Build a meaty grilling station

Styles of kitchen sinks

Commentary by Randy Sorrell

Commentary by David Decker

THRILLING … the one word description of the featured grill station! It hardly seems meaty enough outdoor living though. The bold confidence required to implement the first few phases of this modern project (not contemporary) was both gutsy and visionary.

The incredibly versatile and forward materials selected are reminiscent of a favorite magazine spread featuring an outdoor living space you may recall. While edgy, it rings of historical spaces we often experience in dense metropolitan vibes, where real estate is precious and a rare stroke of grass is coveted.

IPE. STEEL. Ipe is a Brazilian hardwood, often environmentally farmed, whose longevity will certainly span our children’s lifetime. The density and weight has a steel quality about it, especially when it’s time to cut or drive a nail through.

Disney employs the wood often for ease of maintenance, its sleek beauty and generational duration. It’s gorgeous and intended to gradually turn a naturally silver hue.

Both the counter surface and the facade of the grill station were built using ipe with a

There’s no home appliance that’s more hardworking than the kitchen sink. Between cooking activities to remodeling cleaning tasks, the kitchen sink plays a part in it all. Since they are the center of the any room they are installed in, it’s no surprise that the sink becomes a major centerpiece for the design of a kitchen.

Top mounts styles are the easiest and most inexpensive. They are designed to be dropped right into the countertop opening, and are equipped with a rim that goes over the counter to secure the sink in place. While this rim makes the sink cheaper, it can also be a trouble spot for dirt and bacteria to hide in, if the sink is not cleaned properly.

We recommend an undermount sink which provides a much sleeker look. With these designs, the sink mounts to the underside of the countertop: no rim, no mess. Additionally, they may require some kind of internal support system to secure the sink depending on the building material you select.

Finally, homeowners searching for vintage charm have been choosing apron-front (or farmhouse) style sinks. Apron-front designs

heavy steel post anchoring the end of the bar height counter. Ipe and steel are repeated elsewhere in the design, but you will have to wait on that encounter. Lust away.

COURTYARD Detailed planning married with strong horizontal lines and eliminating curves causes this abbreviated courtyard to live much larger than it actually is. There is a gentle embrace of the space.

I can’t wait to share the final phases we’ve completed. You will be thrilled with the story.

have a deep basin, which is appealing for homeowners who want to soak dishes or scrub large pots in the sink. However, this model typically requires specially fitted cabinets. As the design becomes more popular, some manufacturers are creating designs that makes it possible to retro-fit one of these sinks onto a standard cabinet designs. Do your research, and make sure you choose a model that will work for your remodel project.
