Planners hold public hearing on Big Hoffa’s, Liberty Ridge

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

The Advisory Plan Commission held eight public hearings July 5, with the last public hearing involving Adam Hoffman, development owner of Big Hoffa’s, and the proposed development to expand the restaurant at the northeast corner of East Street and Ind. 32.

Birch Dalton of Edge Rock Development addressed some of the concerns residents near the development had, which include: • Speeding – “Speeding is a current problem (at this intersection), and we don’t think Big Hoffa’s locating at this corner will impact speeding in either direction,” Dalton said.

• Traffic – Dalton said traffic is expected to increase, but a roundabout is in the city’s plans for future control of the problem.

• Noise – Dalton referred to Hoffman as a good neighbor and “if anything, you will still have your noise on (Ind.) 32.”

• Buffer between restaurant and homes – Dalton said the proposal is addressing the buffer issue in two ways: one with a solid fence constructed similar to the restaurant with stone, and timber, along with some trees.

• Alcohol consumption – “This is not a bar.

This is a family, sit-down restaurant with catering services,” Dalton said. “It currently serves wine and beer, and they’ve never had a problem.”

• Restaurant a ‘bad neighbor’ – “(Hoffman) has been in business 13 years, (and) 10 of those are in Westfield,” Dalton said. “He’s prepared to make a huge stake in our community by moving down the street, committing a large sum of money to the building and increasing employment.”

• Cut-through to Hillcrest Drive – A cutthrough to Hillcrest Drive is planned for future commercial development. The cutthrough will allow restaurant visitors to leave the parking lot to Hillcrest Drive to “alleviate traffic concerns on East Street.”

Multiple members of the public spoke, branching off the concerns Dalton highlighted.

“As much as Adam does need a new restau-

rant as he has outgrown his current location, this location proposes a risk to traffic and also serving alcohol, whether that be one drink or five is a major concern,” said Ryan Skipper, a resident near the development.

Skipper encouraged the plan commission to assist Hoffman finding a location for the new Big Hoffa’s that did not require rezoning.

In other plan commission news: • The APC forwarded the Open Doors Planned Unit Development District to the city council with a positive recommendation (8-0).

• Public hearings were held on the Harmony PUD District Amendment to the apartment area and J.C. Hart Harmony.

• A public hearing was held on the Liberty Ridge PUD District, on the south side of 151st Street and east of Towne Road. Many concerns were raised by the public saying that two homes per acre did not fit the 2007 Comprehensive Plan. Concerns also were raised regarding the effect on the school system due to the 123 single-family, residential lots.

• A public hearing was held for Primrose School, 14711 N. Gray Rd. to allow for an expansion of the building on 1.63 acres. No comments were made.

• A public hearing was held for Freddy’s Frozen Custard, 2740 E. 146th St., which will renovate the building formerly housing Bagger Dave’s. No comments were made.

CUMC celebrates 75 years of fish

By Sara Barker • news@currentinwestfield.com After 75 years since its first event, Christ United Methodist Church is still frying fish.

This year’s fish fry is fundraiser 5 to 8 p.m. July 15 and 16 in the Family Life Center at CUMC, 318 N. Union St. In addition to dinner, there will be gift card drawings, games and face painting for younger children to celebrate 75 years.

According to 41-year CUMC member Donita Hiatt, the fish fry has not always been as farreaching as it is today.

“When I came here 41 years ago, it was a fairly small event, just kind of Westfield and this area people,” Hiatt said. “Now they come from Arcadia, Atlanta, over in Lapel, different ones from Fishers and from up here as well.”

All of the food, including the fish, sloppy joes, potato salad, baked beans and desserts, is made from scratch by congregation volunteers.

“We even make our own tartar sauce,” Hiatt said.

Coordinated by the church’s United Methodist Women, the fish fry’s profits will benefit the missions sponsored by the group.

For the church’s first fish fry in 1941, non-

congregation men were hired to help cook the food, but were unable to because they were inebriated when it came time to fry the fish.

Instead, three men from the congregation stepped in and took over, deciding that if they were able to fry the fish themselves, they could teach future church members to do it, according to Hiatt.

Mass transit vote delayed until 2018

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Clay and Washington Townships met June 28 to discuss adding a referendum allowing residents to vote on a mass transit option, the Red Line, on the Nov. 8 ballot.

Whereas Washington Township unanimously approved placing the referendum on the ballot, Clay Township decided not to vote on the proposal, therefore preventing the referendum from moving forward delaying another vote until 2018 at the earliest.

“Our Washington Township board unanimously approved the referendum on the ballot and letting the voters decide what they want,” Washington Township Trustee Danielle Carey Tolan said. “(The board) made it very clear they weren’t committing to any plans, but they felt the voters should decide. Since the Clay Township board decided not to vote on the proposal last night, ours had a continuance so that our referendum is null and void now.”

Cindy Benedict, project manager for Indy Connect, said that previously only counties had the ability to vote on placing a referendum on the ballot. An amendment was added in April, allowing townships to vote. However, a township only can vote for the referendum if the bordering township already has approved the referendum. Therefore, Washington Township was dependent on what Clay Township decided.

“While we were disappointed for a delay, we are still here, and we will be continuing to educate people,” Benedict said. “It’s an issue that’s not going to go away.”

“As studies are completed on transit, we also post those,” she said.

Clay Township Board of Trustees President Matthew Snyder could not be reached as of press time.

Grand Park Events Center opens for weekend of celebration

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Following Grand Park’s opening in 2014 and the Jonathan Byrd’s Fieldhouse opening in January, the Grand Park Events Center will open July 21 for a weekcover story end of festivities.

The weekend-long celebration includes an indoor festival with inflatables, movie nights, vendors and tours, a ribbon-cutting ceremony, the third annual Grand Run 5K Run/Walk and the seventh annual Mayor’s Yellow Tie Ball Gala Event.

Grand Park Marketing Manager Michelle Krcmery said the weekend event showcases all possible uses of the events center.

Krcmery “We’ve got a (soccer) scrimmage, so that’s the sport use. We’ve got the gala happening, so that’s the non-sport use,” she said. “The vendor row gives the sense of how a trade show might work in the facility, and the event itself is showcasing what events can be held.”

All activities will take place inside the 370,000-square-foot facility, except for the ribbon-cutting ceremony that will take place on the front lawn.

FESTIVAL The indoor festival, Inflate-A-Fest, will feature inflatables and bounce houses. Food vendors will be available. An all-you-can bounce ticket is $10.

In addition to inflatable bounce houses and obstacle courses, family-friendly movie nights will be from 7 to 9 p.m. and 9 to 11 p.m. July 21 and 22 on the east indoor field. Tickets are $5 per person, and families are welcome to stay for the double feature.

There will be no alcohol at the event.

RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY The ribbon-cutting ceremony will be 6 p.m.

July 22 on the front lawn of the event center.

The ceremony includes two World War II T-6 airplanes flown by the Warbird Training Center in Kokomo.

“The other neat thing about the ribbon cutting is Sandra Wood is singing the National Anthem,” Krcmery said. “She and Craig Wood were the property owners of Grand Park before it was Grand Park. It’s neat that it’s all tying back into the history of Westfield and the park.”

GRAND RUN The third annual 5K Run/Walk will begin and

MAYOR’S YELLOW TIE BALL The Mayor’s Yellow Tie Ball is the final event of the opening weekend. Formal attire is encouraged, except guests should wear comfortable shoes due to the turf of the events center. Guests are encouraged to wear yellow, the mayor’s signature color.

Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness, Noblesville Mayor John Distlear and Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard have been invited to the event.

All proceeds from the opening weekend and

the Yellow Tie Ball will benefit the Hamilton County Youth Assistance Program. Previously, the Mayor’s Yellow Tie Ball only benefitted the Westfield Youth Assistance Program.

“This is an extension of Grand Park, and a lot of people haven’t experienced Grand Park, and we are going into our third year this month,” Communications DiMurphy rector Erin Murphy said. “The Grand Park Events Center is really expanding on that and expanding on the vision of Mayor Cook. It’ll be exciting and show other uses this event center can hold other than sports.”

Smelling a rat, seeing a snake?

And now it gets hyper-interesting. We assume you know that the FBI decided last week that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) was “extremely careless” in the way she handled classified emails on a private server (Oopsie!), but, hey, there isn’t enough for a recommendation to the Department of Justice for criminal charges to be brought against the former secretary of state. “As the Secretary has long said, it was a mistake to use her personal email and she would not do it again. We are glad that this matter is now resolved,” said FBI Director James Comey. Is it? Not if you ask the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, the name-calling flamethrower.

He immediately opined on social media that the “system is rigged” and was calling for a special prosecutor. One wag on Twitter noted that as the announcement was being made, Clinton and President Barack Obama were together on the campaign trail, and that if anyone believed that was a coincidence, one would be a fool. Perhaps. We’re trying to make sense of the decision. Brought down to our level, which is way, way down the ladder, does that mean if we’re pulled over for doing 45 mph in a 30 mph zone, we simply tell the constable, “I apologize, officer, but I didn’t intend to speed.” The announcement came the day after we celebrated independence from tyrannical elites. We’re not sure that fully is the case. Of course, as we’ve written before, if anyone thought Clinton would get more than a hand slap, we have some south-central Florida real estate for you. If interested, you really should have an affinity for Burmese pythons.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Something for anything Commentary by Terry Anker We all want to help. It is human nature; or at the very least, we still can claim it among the qualities in the better part of our selves.

When someone else is suffering, it gives us an opportunity to reach out in support of their need. They get a little boost, and we get to feel good about ourselves. Who loses in that equation, right? Moreover, life teaches that we are on the upward slant of life one minute and on the downward the next. So, our aid somehow guarantees that someone will help us when our fortunes are down.

Let’s call it an investment in the Karma bank.

Whatever the motivation, self-interest or altruism that leads us down the path, we all find ourselves, at one point or another, in a giving state of mind. We give money. We give time. We give advice. We give lots of advice. We give support. We give a hand up.

We give. We give. We give. The only thing, perhaps better said – the only question that

we might consider, is are we giving what’s needed? Are we giving what’s wanted?

Some people think that doing anything is the same as doing something. Don’t misunderstand the instinct. It is good to share – especially if by choice and not government decree. But when we confuse the general for the specific, are we really serving? If water is needed and we send coins, is thirst quenched? If tough love is the order of the day, do our sweet words fit the bill?

Are we simply doing anything instead of doing something – the thing? If we focus on our own actions instead of the needs of others, are we really serving our desire to be valued rather than the legitimate requirement of the target of our largess?

Q U O T E O F T HE W EEK So long as you can sweeten another’s pain, life is not in vain.

– Helen Keller

The 2016 dance season is over, culminating in a six-day trip to Myrtle Beach for nationals. So much to say, only humor 350 words to convey. Now only 325. Here we go.

Girls just want to have fun. On the drive home, my daughter lamented that she had just spent a week at the ocean but only swam in it twice. When I reminded her that she was there to dance, not frolic on the beach, she announced: “That’s just stupid. Why not just have it in Indianapolis?”

Fair enough. And much closer.

When left to their own devices, girls do have a lot of fun. Starting dance parties on the strip with sketchy passengers in idling cars; writing and producing a highly questionable but immensely entertaining rap song; sneaking un-choreographed moves into long-rehearsed routines … these kooky kids have imaginations after all!

All dance moms are not created equal. I realized about halfway through the trip that I was not part of the popular crowd. Try as I might to hang with “the fun moms,” I cherish alone time. I love going to bed at 9 p.m. And by God, if I’m near a beach, even one with a conspicuous absence of sand dollars, I’ll be on it. I know I missed out on several juicy conversations, social power walks and delightful bottles of white, but this ginger dance mom earned a C+ tan and a renewed acceptance of self.

Not all dance teams are created equal either. Our girls danced well, but had their booty shorts handed to them by larger, more competitive teams. It was somewhat of a rude awakening for me but also confirmed what I already knew. We’re with a studio who puts fun and friendship first, not perfection. And I’m good with that.

I have a terrible short-term memory.

I witnessed a two-car traffic accident one morning and was the sole pedestrian witness. When the cop interviewed me, I couldn’t recall any details. None. “So, you didn’t really see anything, ma’am?” Nope. I guess not.

But I do know a good rap song. Peace out.

Asleep at the wheel Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I have tried many things over the years to get a better night’s sleep. I once took Ambien, but when I woke up in the mornhumor ing, I discovered I had mown the entire front lawn in the dark. I tried allergy medicine, but it made me a little goofy. Growling at myself in the mirror isn’t normal.

Why do I sleep well on a bus? Nothing about a bus lends itself to sleeping. The seats are hard, the space is cramped, and it’s usually hot.

I decided to simulate the conditions on a bus that make me nod off. I asked my wife to talk to me like a tour guide, to drone on about how the Greeks built the Acropolis or how the Romans constructed the Appian Way. Mary Ellen felt dumb talking to me from the foot of the bed. I asked her to rock the bed back and forth so I’d feel like I was really on the bus. That’s when she got off the bus and slept on the couch.

I took a hard-back, metal folding chair and sat on it next to my bedroom window while

bouncing up and down like I was on a bus.

But I was still wide awake after 30 minutes.

Maybe it’s the sun that makes me drowsy, so I shone a floor lamp directly in my eyes. No luck. What else could I do? Mary Ellen wouldn’t let me invite 30 strangers over to sit around the bed.

Wait! The bus trips are during the day, and I’m trying to sleep at night. So I got back into my folding chair at high noon. The sun was pouring in on my face.

Suddenly I felt myself getting sleepy, very sleepy. Zzzz…

It worked. I slept from noon until 8 p.m., sitting straight up in the chair, leaning against my bedroom window. My insomnia was cured.

Two hours later, it was time for bed. I got under the covers and just couldn’t fall asleep.

Go figure.

I tried allergy medicine, but it made me a little goofy. Growling at myself in the mirror isn’t normal.

The Union, a co-working space based in Westfield, provides a spot for business owners to launch their ideas and growth eventually grow.

You Move Me, a moving company, is the co-working space’s first success story.

Keith Moore, franchise owner of You Move Me, opened his business at an individual location, 1030 Westfield Park Rd., this month.

“We just launched in March of this year,” Moore said. “Our focus is purely on local moves. We started off with one truck, and we have added two since then, and we have approximately 15 people that are working with us. We have grown pretty quickly; our initial plan was to stay here at the Union for this first year.”

Although You Move Me has its own location now, Moore said he plans to remain a member of the Union.

“Part of what’s nice about renting space here is really all the networking opportunities and the contacts with other businesses,” he said. “We have realtors that refer clients to us, and we helped out a realtor when another moving company had cancelled at the last moment. I definitely envision maintaining some kind of presence here.”

The garden at IU North Health Hospital. (Submitted photo)

Serenity Garden now open

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com A donated garden, designed and gifted to IU Health North Hospital over several years, opened this spring to wellbeing benefit patients and their families.

The Serenity Garden is a rooftop garden on the fourth floor of IU Health North Hospital, installed with benches, decorative evergreens and succulents. The garden is near the pediatric, intensive care and post-partum units.

G. Marlyne Sexton provided the hospital with a donation for the garden in memory of two men, her husband, Joseph, and Zeff Weiss, a man who worked with her who also was the brother of Dr. Sheldon Weiss, a physician at the hospital.

“She gave the gift in honor and celebration of their lives,” Tracy Miller, director of philanthropy, said. “We have had people comment that it’s just so comforting to be able to get fresh air without having to leave the hospital.”

The garden is wheelchair accessible, and patients have to get approval from their doctor before visiting the garden.

The $250,000 project began construction last December and opened in May. “This is a dream the hospital has had. The hospital was designed for there to someday be this Serenity Garden, and it wasn’t until Mrs. Sexton said, ‘I would like to do this for you,’ that we were able to do it,” Miller said.

“It’s a beautiful gift, and it’s something our employees always wanted for their patients.”

The Engledow Group of Carmel donated its time to be the garden consultants and maintain the garden.

“We would love to find someone in the community that would like to help weed the garden and help with watering like a volunteer or several volunteers,” Miller said. “Volunteers really make nice, special things happen in hospitals.”

Businesses or individuals interested in volunteering should contact Volunteer Coordinator Ann Sawyer at asawyer@iuhealth.org.

Best defense against ticks – Short of staying inside forever, there’s no guarantee against tick bites. However, you can lessen the risks by spraying your clothes with prometherin. Take your clothes outside and spray them. Also, products with eucalyptus oils can be used on your skin as repellants. Finally, do a tick check when you come inside. If you find a tick, carefully pull it out without squeezing it. A tick removal device works best.

Indy Film Fest: Amy’s top five Commentary by Amy Pauszek The 2016 Indy Film Fest kicks off this week on July 14 and runs through July 24. It’s one of my favorite film festivals because many of the films shown will be havmovies ing their world premiere here in Indiana. Two amazing films are slated for opening and closing nights, “Little Men” and “Morris From America.” Trust me, you won’t want to miss these exciting films, the after parties or the chance to meet indie filmmakers, producers and actors from around the world. As a local film producer, I love seeing what’s hot, fresh and who is making waves in the indie film industry. The Indianapolis Museum of Art is hosting the festival again this year. Two films I selected for my top five were actually filmed in Indiana and the rest are films that will leave the audience with questions and/or asking for more. Indy Film Fest Executive Director Craig Mince of Carmel said he believes “the core group who help run the festival are a team of people who believe in the unifying power of film - and they dedicate an unbelievable number of hours to prove that commitment.”

Experience the Indy Film Festival and help make filmmakers’ from around the world dreams come true. For more, visit indyfilmfest.org.

“Under the Bridge,” a documentary about homelessness in Indianapolis will be playing at the Indy Film Fest. (Submitted photo)

1. “Under the Bridge: The Criminalization of Homelessness” A documentary shot in downtown Indianapolis is about a tent city under a bridge, a man named Maurice and the criminalization of homeless in the United States. The unofficial “mayor” of the Davidson Street camp, Maurice is an older, dreadlocked black man who has dropped out of normal society to minister to the homeless. His camp based under a railroad track becomes a real community, supported by church volunteers, until police and bulldozers close in to shut it down.

This film makes the audience think about how we deal with the homeless and how this can happen to any of us when we least expect it.

2. “A Sicilian Dream” A documentary about the famous Targa Florio, a Sicilian mountain road race that, in 1906, gave birth to a new era of

motorsport that is still going strong today. Indianapolis 500 race fans will love this film, which has dramatic re-enactments with a touch of modern contributors who relate and explain the history of these epic races. The film is in English but has some Italian subtitles. It’s interesting, witty and has beautiful Italian cinematography – an IFF must see.

3. “70 Acres in Chicago, Cabrini Green” Filmed over the course of 15 years, the documentary film asks the question, “What happens when a mixed-income housing experiment collides with reality?” The film centers on three public-housing residents and how their lives are turned upside down when their community is torn apart in the name of progress. Cabrini is being demolished as part of a national plan to replace public housing with mixed-income communities. Critics contend that the motivation is economic gain, as public housing’s prime real estate is too valuable for the lowincome black communities that live there. The film chronicles neighborhood upheaval on Chicago’s most hotly contested 70 acres of land. This film makes the audience open their eyes to situations that happen every day to low-income communities and their families.

4. “Reparation” A powerful psychological thriller shot in Indiana about a troubled Air Force veteran who finds clues to his buried memories in his young daughter’s art, while confronted by a stranger looking for answers to his past. The story, acting, music, make-up and cinematography make this film come alive. This is a feature film that leaves the audience wondering about loyalty, friendships and the call of duty. This film is award-winning and a must-see.

5. “Search Engines” Sanity and relationships are put to the test when mysterious circumstances force a family to survive the annual American Thanksgiving holiday without their cell phones. This is a fun, Indie film with a great cast including Joely Fisher, Natasha Greyson Wagner, Daphne Zuniga and the hysterical “Search Engines,” on screen at the Indy Connie Stevens. I Film Fest, is the perfect film to see for a girls night out. (Submitted photo) thought this film was funny, and it reminds us that we may just depend on social media and our electronic devices a bit more than we really need to. Perfect for a girls’ night out at the IFF. Where’s Amy? is a photo column by Amy Pauszek, a society girl and film producer and partner with Ever Film Productions, LLC.

Fairfield Four to play July 16

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Joe Thompson has deep roots in The Fairfield Four.

His cousins, brothers Harold music and Rufus Carrethers, founded the a cappella gospel group at Fairfield Baptist Church in Nashville, Tenn., in 1921.

“I’m 81 now, and I was in high school when they first got me involved,” Thompson said.

This is the third generation of The Fairfield Four, which will play at 8 p.m. July 16 at The Warehouse, 254 First Ave. SW., Carmel.

“All the guys in the group have all been Bible-based guys,” said Thompson, a bass singer. “They’ve had five or six preachers in the group. We keep God in the midst of everything we do.”

The group plays at a variety of venues, but The Warehouse’s living-room concert style suits it.

“We just want to make sure we can reach out and touch our audience,” said Larrice Byrd, a baritone. “We really believe in engaging our audience.”

Bobbye Sherrell, 63, was the last one to join the group five years ago.

Levert Allison, Bobbye Sherrell, Larrice Byrd, and Joe Thompson of The Fairfield Four. The group will perform on July 16 at The Warehouse in Carmel. (Submitted photo)

“They made it comfortable and easy for me to come in,” said Sherrell, a tenor. “They accepted me, and we all had the same frame of mind in form of places of worship and the same songs. We are a family now.”

Byrd, the youngest at 62, and Levert Allison, 78, a tenor, joined at the same time seven years ago.

“We have very good chemistry,” Allison said.

In 2015, the group won a Grammy Award for Best Roots Gospel Album, “Still Rockin’ My Soul.”

The group will play several cuts from that album “and all the stuff the generations have done,” Allison said.

SATURDAY, JULY 23 AT 7PM AT THE PALLADIUM

Hunter Smith is a Texan by birth and now a Hoosier at heart.

“I left Texas when bicentennial I was 17, so I’ve been here well over half my life,” said the 38-year-old Smith, who was a punter for Notre Dame’s football team before being drafted by the Indianapolis Colts. “I met my wife and most of my best friends and my band (in Indiana). This is what we call home.

This is where we want to live and die.”

So, it’s not odd the Zionsville resident’s “Indiana Moon” has been chosen as the anthem of Indiana Bicentennial celebrations.

“What an honor,” Smith said. “It’s not just a song that will be played a couple of times. It’s part of the history of the bicentennial.”

The Hunter Smith Band will play during the Indiana Bicentennial Hoosier Homecoming Oct. 15 and the Sunday’s Inspirational Celebration at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum in Indianapolis on Dec. 11, Indiana’s official 200th birthday.

Smith said his song was discussed for a few months and then recently confirmed as the anthem.

ine, had the idea for a song called “Indiana Moon.”

“He brought it to me, and I wrote the song,” Smith said. “As the principal songwriter, guys bring me ideas, and we develop them.”

Inspiration struck Smith when bouncing around on the trampoline with his kids and the moon was bright.

The song is on the band’s second album “Story,” released in 2015. The band will play at Back Porch Revival concert in Iowa City, Iowa, Aug. 27, opening for Blake Shelton.

Houzz 2016 report shows hottest home trends Commentary by David Decker Kitchens aren’t just for cooking anymore.

Houzz, a digital leader in home design and inspiration, recently released interiors a report detailing consumer trends in kitchen design.

With the kitchen commanding such a large number of activities, the design and functionality is extremely important. A large reason homeowners renovate is to improve the flow and open it up to either another interior space, such as a living room, or to an outdoor patio or porch. Homeowners continue to blend living and functional areas of their homes, allowing them to enjoy all areas more easily.

Once they have opened up their kitchens, a majority of homeowners are changing the style during the renovation. Countertops are one area where design and style start to take shape. When considering kitchen countertops, consumers reported durability as most important and still prefer the beauty that natural

Establishing ethos Commentary by Jordan Fischer How does one become a Grammar Guy? In my case, I graduated with honors (Latin honors!) with a dualgrammar guy degree in journalism and English, I was the managing editor of a newspaper, and I knew what an interrobang was. Also, when the job opened up, I asked.

How does one establish ethos with their audience? See above.

Whatever I go on to say now – as long as it’s about grammar – I’ve foregrounded a sense of expertise and authority on my part.

That is what Aristotle dubbed ethos – one of the three modes of persuasion.

If you read last week’s column, you know we’re talking about rhetoric and the art of persuasion on the campaign trail. And in our (still presumptive, as of this writing) Democratic and Republican candidates, we see two very different methods of establishing ethos.

Hillary Clinton tends to lead first with her credentials and experience – what Aristotle called phronesis. Consider this passage from his “Nicomachean Ethics:” “…Prudence (phronesis) includes a knowledge of particular facts, and this is derived from experience, which a young man does not possess; for experience is the fruit of years.”

In her opponent, Donald Trump, we see more of an emphasis on Aristotle’s two other aspects of ethos: arete (excellence/virtue) and eunoia (goodwill).

Trump is, by nearly all accounts, a supremely gifted self-promoter, which is key to

establishing ethos. Consider this quote from a speech in December: “I went to an Ivy League school,” Trump said, a point he frequently brings up to establish his excellence. “I’m very highly educated. I know words. I have the best words.”

Trump also repeatedly points to his successful business ventures, his great personal fortune and his trouncing of his Republican rivals as proof of his virtue (arete). Ethos.

Ethos. Ethos.

In another skillful rhetorical move, the New York real estate mogul in June both tried to damage Clinton’s perceived goodwill with voters (eunoia) while building his own. Referencing Clinton’s campaign slogan, “I’m with her,” Trump told a crowd on June 22, “You know what my response to that is? I’m with you, the American people.”

It’s worth noting that establishing ethos doesn’t happen just because you say you’re great – there has to be some grounding in reality. Trump can promote his image as a dealmaker because of his successes in business.

Clinton can frame herself as the foreign policy expert because of her vast experience as a first lady, senator and secretary of state. Me claiming either of those things? Not as persuasive. That’s why I stick to snarky grammar columns.

Coming up next week: “Moving mountains, and minds, with pathos.”

The eastern end of Parthenon in Athens, Greece (Photo by Don Knebel)

Illusions of the Parthenon Commentary by Don Knebel The Parthenon, atop the Athens Acropolis, represents the epitome of classical architecture and the inspiration for buildtravel ings around the world, including the United States Supreme Court Building. Its timeless appearance results from a number of clever optical refinements reflecting the perceptiveness of ancient Greek architects.

Pericles, the great Athenian leader, erected the Parthenon from 447 to 432 B.C. to celebrate the accomplishments of the citizens of Athens, then at the peak of its power. The 228-footlong by 101-foot-wide building sheltered a colossal gold and ivory statue of Athena, the patron goddess of Athens. Because Athenians did not enter the Parthenon, but observed it from outside, architects designed the exterior to communicate visual perfection by taking into account the limitations of human perception. As a result, the Parthenon has no straight lines.

To counter the perception that vertical parallel lines bow inwardly, the middles of the Parthenon’s marble columns are slightly wider

than their ends. Because columns set against the bright sky appear smaller than those against a darker background, the diameters of the corner columns are about six centimeters larger than those of other columns.

To overcome the perception that horizontal lines sag, the Parthenon’s lintels curve slightly upward. Because a triangular pediment makes columns below it appear to bend outward, the Parthenon’s columns are closer to each other at their tops than at their bases.

The Parthenon was severely damaged in 1687, when gunpowder stored in it by the Ottomans exploded during a battle with the Venetians. In 1931, a full-scale replica of the Parthenon, based on ancient descriptions and including a magnificent statue of Athena, was completed in Centennial Park in Nashville, Tenn.
