Hinging on city council decision, Westfield may see high-rise apartments and commercial development along 21 acres at the southeast corner of Ind. 32 and Oak Ridge development Road in the future.

The advisory plan commission held a public hearing for the development at its Aug. 15 meeting, and at its Oct. 17 meeting, the plan commission forwarded The Trails Planned Unit Development District onto city council with a positive recommendation. Developer Birch Dalton, of EdgeRock Development, made a presentation regarding the apartments and the commercial area, which is expected to include a Starbucks, Which Wich, Wings Etc. and a Crew Carwash.

“This is a serious apartment development from the quality of work like Bridgewater,” Dalton said.

“They view this as the same, if not higher, rent area because of the Monon, Midland Trace (trails) and all other amenities.”

The apartments must all be at least three stories high and 25 percent of the apartment buildings will be four stories high.

Dalton urged the plan commission to send the project on to city council with a positive recommendation because he wants to deliver the commercial building by September of next year.

All plan commission members voted yes to the recommendation, although Steve Hoover – also a member of the city council – voiced some con-

cerns over the Starbucks.

“One (of my concerns) was the Starbucks architecture and how that would tie in with the rest of that proposed building there,” Hoover said. “I know that’s something you’re working on, and I can assure you that was my number one concern, that it’s going to have to look good to get my vote at the council level. The other concern was the apartments. The renderings that were shown two weeks ago as attachments to our agenda I did not feel were the level we wanted to see here, but I think what is shown now does appeal to me. I think it is something different than just standard apartments to me.

It looks good and more of a downtown setting.

All (apartments) have a minimum of three stories so we don’t get a typical sprawling apartment complex here.”

The development is expected to cost $35 million.

Straight ticket voting changes – Straight party voting has changed in Indiana. Hoosiers will still be able to cast a straight ticket Nov. 8, but that vote will not count for individual candidates for county council or town council at-large.

SSES implements literacy program

By Renee Larr • news@currentinwestfield.com Shamrock Springs Elementary School wanted to find a way to get the whole school excited about reading. education Tara Lynne Sinicki, literacy specialist at SSES, attended a conference last year and learned about a program called One School, One Book.

“The whole premise is that everyone reads – teachers, students, custodians and cafeteria staff. The idea is that we have this one giant book club and families are doing the reading at home, either themselves or along with the teachers doing the reading in the classroom,” Sinicki said.

The Parent Teacher Organization provided copies of “The Lemonade War” to all the staff and students.

“We asked the teachers to pick from a variety of titles, then we compared the book to what our core values are at our school,” PTO President Sherry Shuler said. “We ended up choosing the book ‘The Lemonade War.’ It’s a book about siblings and their rivalry in regards to having a lemonade stand over the summer to make money.”

The school began reading the book last month. Along the way, students and staff par-

ticipate in trivia related to the book.

“We have a family trivia that goes home every week. We have trivia on our announcements and in the cafeteria. All three of those places are an opportunity to talk about things like friendship, what you’re good at, how you treat people,” Sinicki said.

The custodial staff and cafeteria service workers were excited to be included.

“When I personally delivered the books to them, I explained the One School, One Book concept, and that they were part of our school. They were truly excited to get the book,” Shuler said.

SSES plans for the literacy program to become an annual event.

Why did you become a teacher? “My dad was a teacher for many years and then principal of my high school. He inspired me to pursue teaching as a career.

Finally, I have always enjoyed working with kids. Kids are amazing. Teaching is such a rewarding career.”

What goals do you have for your students “In the media center I have many goals for students throughout the year with literature, research skills, technology, etc. However, my true hope for students is that they will have a lifelong love for reading.”

What do you encourage parents to do

Tina Cardarelli awarded for breastfeeding research

By Anna Skinner • Anna@youarecurrent.com When Tina Cardarelli became one of eight women to receive the Torchbearer Award, she didn’t think much cover story of it. But the more she researched it, she realized it was a bigger deal than she originally thought.

Cardarelli was recognized for her nationwide work on breastfeeding education. In addition to the Torchbearer Award, she also received the Keeper of Light Award through the Indiana Commission for Women.

“It’s a little mind-boggling to me,” the Westfield resident said. “When you do work, you do what you’re passionate about, and you don’t know if anybody really knows if you’re doing that work because it matters to you. My area is maternal and child health, and we have a very bad infant mortality problem in Indiana.”

Cardarelli is a founding member of the Michigan Breastfeeding Network and started her own breastfeeding consulting firm to advise state health departments. She works with hospitals to improve maternity care practices.

Cardarelli was originally a teacher but changed directions to work as a nutritionist and breastfeeding coordinator to council pregnant women on nutrition. The more she worked with women who were emotional about the varying opinions on breastfeeding, she learned that many women were not aware of the benefits.

“I felt that no one was advocating for women. They were being trivialized around that issue, and no one was speaking about it, either,” she said. “All of my maternal child

health nutrition focused on breastfeeding, and women started coming from all over the place to get advice from me.”

Cardarelli has received a variety of awards for her work, and she still doesn’t understand why. However, those who nominate her claim she is changing public health in Indiana.

“What’s really cool is I do a lot of speaking around the country about the work we are doing in Indiana. I think that’s cool to teach some of the lessons learned here,” she said.

“The style of my work is very different. I like talking at events and meeting people from

hospitals and talking about the real issues. I have a different style of creating change.

“It’s a big deal the work we are doing to improve hospital practices in our state,” she added. “Every buzz word in public health and Indiana is we have a problem with infant mortality. The most frustrating thing of my career is the fact that people have not connected the dots between infant mortality and maternity care practice. Breastfed babies are 56 percent less likely to get SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.) Why am I getting an award for talking about what everybody should know?”

When you do work, you do what you’re passionate about, and you don’t know if anybody really knows if you’re doing that work because it matters to you.

From left, a local mom, Lera Woodring, James Woodring and Tina Cardarelli.

Seven years ago, Cardarelli began a summit in Hamilton County as a conference for the decision-makers in hospitals to learn about breastfeeding. This month, the summit was held at Ritz Charles in Carmel.

“I have to be honest, I’m advocating for moms and babies,” Cardarelli said. “I think a lot of it has to do with the messaging that isn’t getting out there in an applicable way for moms and babies and families. Some communities know a lot about stuff, and others don’t.”

Very superstitious

FR O M T HE BA C K SH O P

It sure doesn’t seem that long This isn’t gloating. It’s simply reflection.

We had more than a few people look at us, mouths agape, when we said back in 2005 we were going to launch a publishing company.

We heard, “Yeah, good luck with that,” “They’re going crush you like an over-ripened grape and spit you out,” and “This is the wrong time to do that, because newspapers are dying on the vine.” OK, thanks, got it. In truth, that actually became fuel to develop what shortly thereafter became Current Publishing, LLC. As some of you might know, we independently were working on plans to do this, when one of us crossed paths with a mutual acquaintance. He suggested we get together and mine each other’s thoughts. So we did that, and after 15 minutes it became readily apparent that with strength in numbers – to speak nothing of combining energies and knowhow – we just might be able to get this done. Sixteen months of market and reader research, and funding, legal, staffing and logistics work ensued, and – it seemed like overnight, truly – our first publication, Current in Carmel, arrived in the day’s mail of Oct. 24, 2006. Ten. Years. Ago. Our dream came true, and it continues to flourish in our second decade as a locally owned and operated business. We can’t even begin to explain how fortunate we are and how grateful we are to so many, including our readership, our advertising partners, our investors, our vendors, our research firm and, last but nowhere near least, our colleagues here at this humble enterprise. Add it up, and it all looks like this: You win with people. In the end, it’s that simple.

Getting to this point was anything but.

It was a dark-and-stormy night Oct. 19, 2006. We were busy assembling our first edition. Sometime before 10 p.m., everyone left for the night … except for Steve. He had a few more things to do (including an hour nap in his car at 2 a.m.), and that lasted only until about 6 p.m. the next day, when the paper was shipped for the press run … only approximately eight hours late. Brian was pacing with a stack of unpaid ad invoices and a calculator belching smoke. It was quite the scene. We were housed in temporary quarters, “Cubicleville” at the former Thomson USA building at West 103rd and Meridian streets. We met a See BACKSHOP | Page 14

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Off to the races Commentary by Terry Anker With the rising sun, we all reach collectively for our smart devices. What messages arrived over night? What is the itinerary for the coming day? We run the rat race as if our lives depended upon it. Perhaps they do.

Whether corporally perilous or not, we can agree that we are all running somewhere – either toward our objective or away from it.

We move, always. Even as we think that we are standing still, we are carried along by those near us. As we consider it now, it all seems very exhausting.

So if we are all somehow tied to the race, how do we win – or at least try to keep up? Ask any experienced runner about their technique to victory and one will elicit as many responses as athletes asked. A sprinter will urge an immediate burst from the blocks and a full-on dash through the finish line. The distance runner might encourage a more methodical and deliberate approach to

triumph. Have a game plan. Execute on the plan. Win with the plan. OK, but how does it connect to us? Is life a marathon or a sprint? And if we figure it out, can we plan a strategy that makes it all a bit easier?

Conventional wisdom implies that life is a marathon and not a sprint. We are encouraged to hold back so as not to burn out too quickly. It all sounds reasonable, but sometimes it seems more like a relay race. Occasionally, we carry the baton. Other times, we pass it along for another to carry. Then we stand at the sideline and cheer them on – our hopes vested in their talent and dedication. Who knows? Still, if we are off to the races, shouldn’t we determine what kind of race we are running?

O N T HE W EB Looking for ​Dick W ​ olfsie? This week he is on the web with his humor ​in a ​ column​​titled “The whole tooth.”​He writes: ​“I had never read my own dental chart before. Being familiar with the​​laws governing privacy, I assumed that what was going on inside my​​mouth was really none of my business. But the other day I was at my​​dentist’s office and there’s my chart sitting right smack in front of me.

Are you superstitious? I am. I firmly believe that the only way the University of Louisville can win a game humor is if I wear my Cards T-shirt with a pair of Express jeans and abstain from Diet Coke for the day. And that hearing Rod Stewart’s “Forever Young” in full means a family member is pregnant.

I also never take chances with sidewalk cracks, tails-up pennies, spilled salt, or stupid black cats, for obvious reasons.

Why I am like this? After all, I’m fairly well-educated and can rationally acknowledge that a kitty sauntering across my path should have absolutely no repercussions on my day. Or that my moving one seat to the left at a Colts game shouldn’t make a bit of difference on whether or not T.Y. Hilton scores a touchdown. I know in my heart that these silly things don’t matter, and yet I can’t prevent myself from acting on them, anyway.

Part of my superstitious nature I blame on genetics. I am a ginger twin and have supposedly inherited special sensory connections to my sister, although it’s really only worked one time, and that was on her end. Furthermore, by all accounts, my maternal grandmother was “born under the veil,” and therefore had “the sight.” (I can’t explain what any of this means but it sounds cool.) And my mom is extremely intuitive; always knew when I was pregnant, even before me or Rod Stewart. So I’ve grown up with both an appreciation for trusting my instincts and the belief that “signs” foretelling the future do exist for those who choose to read them. Case in point: My daughter sang in a production of “Joseph’s Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” just one month before I was awarded a travel grant to the Middle East!

Anyway, I bring this entire topic up because the most superstitious (and awesome-est) holiday of the year, Halloween, is upon us. Weird things can and will happen, especially if you’re not prepared. So grab a rabbit’s foot, wear some garlic, and take care around mirrors. And if you hear “Forever Young,” congratulations! Peace out.

BACKSHOP | From Page 13 ton of cool and helpful people there, folks that had nothing to do with Current, but who willingly pitched in on matters of technology and communication. On New Year’s Eve 2006, we bade them farewell after sending the paper to press (on time!), boxing up all our worldly possessions and unplugging, maybe, four computers. We were headed for a more permanent home, the Old Town Shoppes at the southeast corner of East Main Street and South Range Line Road in Carmel. We all but outgrew that office in less than a year, but we hung in for nearly five, before moving to our now office/ home/world headquarters at 30 S. Range Line Rd. What a trip!

Colleagues have come and gone (fairly rapidly in the beginning as we strove to find our sea legs), but the one constant has been Dennis O’Malia. He has been a vital part of this operation since well before Day 1. Some might not know him as an advertising sales executive extraordinaire and the one who really gave us our “go like hell” tenet, but as a former owner of O’Malia Food Markets. We believe everyone associated with us comprises The A Team, to which we owe a massive measure of gratitude. Even though we can’t mention them all by name here - Brian, aka Mr. Drysdale (see: The Beverly Hillbillies), would faint from the newsprint expense - we seriously would

be remiss were we not to name the folks we call “our bosses in the office”: Zach Ross, our art director and production coordinator, who is far and away the most unflappable/unfazed human around when all hell is breaking loose; Andrea Nickas, our advertising artist, who just keeps quietly super-serving our advertising partners with high-quality and quick work, as does Lara Acton, our ad traffic manager (a job at which either of us would fail in a heartbeat); Raquel Dowley, our office manager, who has built in so many critical efficiencies and is as detail-oriented as they come; Sophie Pappas, our micro-managing (in a fantastic way) editorial director, and her managing editors, Ann Marie Shambaugh (Carmel and Zionsville), Sadie Hunter (Noblesville and Geist) and Anna Skinner (Westfield and Fishers). Those folks and all their associates/charges really are the ones that make Current go, and we tip our hats to everyone. We wouldn’t trade a soul from that lot.

Current’s circulation has grown from 26,000 households in 2006 to 125,731 today. We had planned for expansion early on, but each foray into a new market was accelerated at the behest of advertising partners – even through the recession. Today, in addition to Carmel, we are proud purveyors of what we call locallocal content - demanded by readers through research, the information you can’t get from a single source anywhere else - in Fishers,

We’re often asked, “What’s next?” It’s an excellent question. To be sure, there are other markets – near and far – to be conquered.

Time will tell. For now, though, here’s a toast to everyone – EVERYONE! – who made this possible, not the least of which are our incredibly understanding and supportive families. Without them … well, we won’t even ponder that.

It’s all extremely humbling.

READERS ’ V I E W S Vote ‘Yes’ on Nov. 8 Editor, Our family has been very impressed with all the schools from elementary through (having) one (child) graduated and off to college. My wife and I look forward to voting “Yes,” and our family will be happy to help in any way we can. A good public school system is an asset that positively benefits a community beyond

just the obvious benefit to kids. Areas with strong schools have real estate markets with higher home values. These communities are more likely to attract corporations that care about quality of life for employees and have lower crime rates. Vote “Yes” November 8!

Randy Zentz, Westfield Washington Schools parent and local real estate developer

Vote ‘Yes’ on referendum Editor, On behalf of our school corporation, I strongly urge my fellow citizens to vote “Yes” and pass the Westfield Washington School Referendum on November 8. This referendum is a renewal request and reduces the amount of your property taxes. When you vote “Yes” for passage of this renewal you will start saving 0.03 cents per $100 of assessed value each year over the next seven years.

Strong schools are indicative of thriving, healthy and safe communities. Our schools provide a great value, drawing people to Westfield. More people bring more jobs as

jobs follow the work force in today’s economy.

Our economic success is directly related to the quality of our schools. They continue to respond to the needs of our community and are consistently adjusting and improving their performance as indicated by their high test score results and high graduation rate. Again, I urge you to join me in voting “Yes” for our school referendum November 8. Our children deserve our investment in their future and you deserve the tax reduction and rising property values you get.

Zionsville superintendent urges WWS to vote ‘Yes’ Editor, My family settled in Westfield nearly two decades ago. We have two children who are Westfield High School and Butler University graduates. Our son is a sixth grader at Westfield Middle School. It has also been my pleasure to serve as a member of the Westfield Redevelopment Commission since the group’s inception nearly a decade ago.

Our community must come together to insure passage of Westfield Washington Schools’ operating referendum. The Indiana General Assembly fundamentally changed school funding in 2008 such that the state’s lowest funded public schools must hold elections to sustain programs for youth.

The Westfield Washington Schools receives among the lowest per-student funding in the entire state. I know about this condition first-hand because of my work as the superintendent of the neighboring Zionsville Community Schools, the state’s lowest-funded public schools. State law now forces operating referenda for growing and lowest-funded

school districts like ours. Without success in the election, as ZCS experienced in 2010, class sizes skyrocket and programs for youth are cut when teacher layoffs occur. Referendum failure causes instability to roll like a wave across a community — especially among the excellent teaching and counseling staffs schools like ours strive constantly to recruit and retain.

values or more crime in Westfield. Declining local public schools take safety, property values, and overall quality of life down with them.

As for those of us who are parents of WWS youth, our children’s school experiences actually do hang in the balance if the current, already in-force operating referendum is not passed by us at the polls. The WWS Board and our outstanding new superintendent, Dr. Sherry Grate, have put forth a lower referendum tax rate than the current one. This is a no-brainer. We simply must vote to pass the referendum and sustain our fine local schools.

Thank you for your consideration of this information. I have confidence that our community will actually go vote and not sit by with the notion that the referendum is going to pass because our schools are so great and so well supported by community members. In fact, we must get out and vote to sustain excellence in our local public schools. Please do your part this November.

Sincerely, Scott Robison, Westfield Beacon Pointe resident and WWS parent

This is a no-brainer. We simply must vote to pass the referendum and sustain our fine local schools.

Residents without children in Westfield’s outstanding local public schools should know that community safety and property values are two of the strongest, research proven correlates to having great local public schools.

Chiropractor celebrates re-opening

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Since moving to Westfield in 2004, Dr. Sandra K. Cunningham had a goal of moving her practice there, too. new biz “I always wanted to live and work in the same community,” Cunningham said.

A year ago she finally was able to move her business, Chiropractic Wellness Center of Indiana, from Carmel. The business, 514 Ind. 32, held a ribbon cutting Aug. 31.

From 2000 to 2015, the office was in Carmel. Previously, it was near the Castleton Square Mall in Indianapolis, starting in 1986. It is Cunningham’s 30th year of her practice.

“Twelve years ago we had a goal of having another office here or moving our office to Westfield,” she said.

Cunningham had been checking for several years for the building space to be open.

She recently leased part of her space to an insurance agent. Cunningham graduated in 2015 and received her medical acupuncture license. She plans to open another business, Sanctuary of Acupuncture, in the center next spring.

“That’s why we’re a wellness center,” Cunningham said. “I want there to be a lot of

different things that can help people, different services of all different types. I listen to patients and listen to staff, and that’s how I designed this office to accommodate multiple doctors in the same practice and also multiple services so that a patient doesn’t have to go to multiple different locations to find things that are going to help them.”

Cunningham has four employees, including a massage therapist.

She is a founding member of the Rotary Club in Westfield. She was the driving force in starting the Sensory Gardens at the Freedom Trails Park in Westfield with an idea to create sensory experiences for autistic children.

Year-to-date sales 6.3 percent up Commentary by Jim Litten According to statistics compiled by F.C. Tucker Company, August was the busiest month in 2016 for central Indiana’s real estate real estate market so far.

Compared to this time last year, pended sales grew more than 15 percent in August, and eight of the 14 counties Tucker tracks recorded double-digit percentage growth in sales. This growth helped raise overall year-to-date sales, which are now 6.3 percent ahead of this time last year.

Hamilton County’s pended sales jumped more than 5 percent in August 2016 compared to August 2015. Prices also have increased by 2 percent over last year to an average of $284,539. Low inventory continues to challenge the market. Fortunately, Hamilton County experienced the least amount of declining inventory in August – down 9.7 percent, representing roughly 200 fewer homes available compared to this time last year.

• In Westfield, the average year-to-date home sales price increased 4.3 percent to $304,517.

• Inventory moved at a slower pace in Westfield in August 2016. Overall, homes

sold in 62 days – 13 more days than this time last year.

• Buyers in Westfield had more options available to them. Last month, 255 homes were available for sale – 20 more homes compared to August 2015.

• Pended home sales declined in Westfield.

In August 2016, 72 homes sold – a decrease of 14 homes compared to August 2015.

• Of the pended home sales in Westfield last month, nine were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 16 were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 27 were priced $200,000 to $299,999; and 20 were priced $100,000 to $199,999.

Realtors definitely felt the momentum in August. Buyer demand is still strong, and we could see stronger sales if inventory returns to the level it was two or three years ago.

We expect 2016 to be our best year since the housing market began its recovery.

Halloween tailgate Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Not that we saw it first-hand, but it’s said that trick-or-treating has been a Halloween tradition in America since the late 1920s. In the British Isles the tradition of going houseto-house, in costume and collecting treats at Halloween, can be traced as far back as the 16th century. Why not do your part to keep this tradition alive by staging your own Halloween tailgate?

Here’s how to dress-up your tailgate in the Halloween spirit. Have orange and black Jell-O shots for the adults. Carve a pumpkin with your school logo. Have a tub full of leftover candy for passers-by. Have simple Lone Ranger-type masks for your guests.

Today, chocolate chip cookie cakes are extremely popular in supermarket birthday areas because they can be decorated like a cake. If you consider the sugar excesses of Halloween season, no one among us should fear the calories of icing and chocolate chips in their system. Here is a cookie bar recipe that can use up a lot of those little packs of Reece’s Pieces and has perfect Halloween colors.

PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE BARS Ingredients: 2 7.2 oz. Packages of Betty Crocker Peanut Butter Cookie Mix, 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, 2 tablespoons water, ½ cup peanut butter, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup Reece’s Pieces (11 trick-or-treat size 4.9 oz. bags) Instructions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Cover inside of a 10 x 13 baking dish with parchment paper and lightly spray the paper with no-stick spray. Chop about ¾ of the Reese’s Pieces to expose the insides. In a bowl, mix the cookie mix packs with the oil, water, peanut butter, flour and chopped ReThe Center for the Performing Arts – 355 City Center Dr., Carmel – thecenterpresents.org Oct. 29 – Russian String Orchestra Hoosier Park Racing & Casino – 4500 Dan Patch Circle, Anderson – hoosierpark.com Oct. 29 – Cook & Belle Mo’s Irish Pub – 13193 Levinson Ln., Noblesville – mosirishpub.com/indy Oct. 27 – Doug Resendez Oct. 28 – Andrew Young Trio Oct. 29 – Stella Luna

ece’s Pieces. Place the dough into the baking dish and using your fingers, gently press the dough to fit evenly in the middle and against the sides. Sprinkle the top with the remaining un-chopped Reece’s Pieces.

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until light golden brown. At first the center will be a little soft.

Cool the cookie sheet on a wire rack for at least an hour or until the sheet is room temperature on its bottom. The longer you wait the more solid the bars will become. Next, grasping the parchment paper, slide the big bar rectangle onto a cutting board. Be careful because the large cookie/bar will be fragile at this point. Slide the parchment out from under the large cookie and cut it into 24 bars with four rows of six bars per row.

On game day, box the bars into a plastic sealable container for transport to the game and wait for the compliments.

Grace Church musical opens Oct. 28

By Heather Collins news@currentinwestfield.com It’s the tale as old as time. “Beauty and the Beast” will open Oct. 28 at Grace Church.

The hit musical will be family fun directed by Amy Christie.

It focuses on the message that “love conquers.”

Grace Church’s presentation of “Beauty and the Beast” will focus on the power of transformation, as well as the lives of the various characters.

“The vision for the show Osgood is that true unconditional love has the power to transform lives. Seeing beyond someone’s exterior and into their heart is the way lives change. I believe this is a message the world needs to hear right now,” Christie said. “Love conquers. Engage with people that are different from you. Don’t let fear paralyze you. Listen, learn, love. It might transform them and it will transform you.”

This year, the “Beauty and the Beast” animated film is celebrating its 25th anniversary and, coincidentally, Grace Church is also celebrating its 25th anniversary.

The cast is composed of about 90 performers, ranging in ages from 8 to 70, and ranging in experience from beginners to Broadway performers.

“We really value that. We want people from varied backgrounds and at various ages,” Christie said. “There is something so beautiful as they all come together for a common goal and a higher purpose.”

Carmel High School senior Betsy Sandifer will play the roll of Belle. The Beast will be played by Noblesville High School junior Jon Osgood, most recently the winner of “Noblesville Idol.”

Sandifer Following each performance, young fans will have the opportunity to interact with the characters from “Beauty and the Beast.”

According to Grace Church, the last musical it produced, “Les Miserables,” was attended by thousands.

Show dates are Oct. 28-30 and Nov. 3-6.

General admission tickets are $11. For the full performance schedule and tickets, visit gracechurch.us/theatre. Doors will open 30 minutes before showtime. Grace Church is at 3305 E 146th St. in Noblesville.

Blueprint for Improvement: Transitional bathroom cosmetic update Commentary by Larry Greene

After

After solutions: The goal was to create a comfortable, more aesthetically spacious master bathroom, while keeping the elements in place that worked most efficiently.

1. The existing vanity cabinets were painted to coordinate with the new fireplace cabinet color. New decorative hardware was added for an extra touch of personal style.

2. While the existing jetted tub functioned well, the tub deck needed a cosmetic update. The beautiful new wood-look floor tile was continued up the side and top of the tub deck, and a beautiful accent tile surround replaced the former outdated white tile.

3. The former alcove shower felt extremely small because of the limited amount of light and glass. The shower transformation included raising the shower ceiling, opening up one of the four walls, new tile, corner bench, large recessed niche and plumbing fixtures.

4. Other beautiful details, such as new framed mirrors, industrial light fixtures, granite countertops, undermount sinks, and oil rubbed bronze plumbing fixtures, were the perfect accompaniments to finish off the space.

Before Background Info: In conjunction with the fireplace remodel we featured two weeks ago, this 1990s Carmel home in the Brookfield neighborhood was in need of updates to the master bathroom as well. The homeowners were looking for the best design solution to combine function with style.

Before problems: The former master bathroom had efficient function and circulation space, but each area, especially the closed-off shower, needed updates to reflect the homeowners’ style and coordinate with the rest of their home.

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Custody and the Best Interest of the Children

There are two aspects to child custody—legal and physical. Legal custody refers to the ability to have input on medical, educational, and religious issues pertaining to a child’s upbringing. Joint legal custody is appropriate in most cases unless there is a significant breakdown in communication between the parties. Generally, as long as the parents are able to communicate and cooperate with one another on decisions involving the child(ren) without a high level of conflict, joint legal custody will be ordered and the parents are required to consult one another before making any of these “major decisions.”

The second aspect of custody, physical custody, is much more often the subject of dispute. Simply stated, physical custody refers to where the children spend their time. As an initial matter, parents may create a unique schedule which satisfies the needs of their children and each other. Often, however, developing a parenting time schedule can be very challenging. When parties are unable to agree, the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines provide a parenting time schedule that gradually increases parenting time as the children grow older, provides for a division of holidays, and allots time with the children should one parent live a significant distance from the children’s primary residence. It should be noted, however, that the Guidelines represent a minimum amount of reasonable parenting time to be afforded to the non-custodial parent. Often times, Indiana Courts will award a highly involved, non-custodial parent with parenting time in excess of the schedule that is provided in the Parenting Time Guidelines.

People often feel the need to “have their day in court,” believing that if the judge hears “their side of the story” the custody order will be in their favor. However, in evaluating whether to ask a judge to

make a ruling on custody and parenting time, the parties would be well advised to keep in mind that time in court is limited, and it is difficult to present all of the information believed to be important. A judge often has a limited timeframe to hear the evidence and limited remedies when determining a parenting time schedule. This is not to say that custody conflicts which arise should not be litigated.

However, once you decide to proceed to court, the final decision is out of your hands.

Finally, if parties are unable to reach an agreement, Indiana Courts will focus on the “best interest of the children” and in doing so will consider a number of factors in determining an appropriate custodial and parenting time arrangement. These factors include, but are not limited to, which parent has served as the primary caregiver; the child’s age and sex; the wishes of the child and the parties; the child’s relationship with each parent, siblings, and others; the child’s adjustment to their home, school, and community; and the mental and physical health of all involved.

Remember, there are a number of benefits to reaching an out-of-court agreement, including but not limited to, allowance for non-traditional work schedules, flexibility for holidays and more importantly the ability to decide and shape your future with your children. Being able to communicate and cooperate on these matters is a win-win for all involved.

Amritsar, in northwest India, is the site of the Golden Temple, the holiest place on earth for followers of the Sikh religion. travel It is also the site of a massacre that played a key role in igniting the demand for Indian independence.

On April 10, 1919, violent protests in Amritsar led British Brigadier General Reginald Dyer to impose a ban on all public gatherings. On April 13, thousands of Sikhs in Amritsar for their annual Baisakhi festival, unaware of the ban, congregated in Jallianwall Bagh, a six-acre public garden near the Golden Temple, where they joined protestors knowingly violating the ban. Seeing the huge gathering as a threat to his ability to maintain order, General Dyer arrived at Jallianwall Bagh with 50 armed troops, who immediately and without warning began firing indiscriminately at the crowd. People tried to run, but their escape routes were blocked by either walls or British forces. Some people were crushed to death as they tried to leave. Others jumped into a large garden well.

The soldiers stopped shooting only when they ran short of ammunition. An official inquiry by the House of Commons, which led to the resignation of General Dyer, counted 379 unarmed dead and 1,200 wounded, including women and children. Indians have always believed the casualty count must have been much higher because of the large number of people in Jallianwall Bagh when the shooting started.

What became known as the Amritsar Massacre convinced Mohandas Gandhi to initiate the non-violent struggle that eventually led to Indian independence in 1947. In 1951, the Indian government erected a memorial honoring the victims of the massacre inside Jallianwall Bagh, near brick walls still displaying bullet holes. Perhaps the most poignant reminder is the Martyrs’ Well, with a sign saying that 120 bodies were found piled at the bottom.
