Plain Talk

Applause for poetry – it’s a snap Commentary By Ward Degler My grandson’s second grade class held a poetry reading at a local bookstore last week.

Much of the poetry was written by the kids themselves. Most were short and to the point.

Nothing rings so true, I think, as the workings of 7-year-old minds.

After each child read, the audience of parents and grandparents applauded – not by clapping their hands, but by snapping their fingers. As it turns out, finger snapping is something of a tradition at poetry readings.

It started during the 1950s in Greenwich Village where a generation of American youth dropped out, called themselves Beatniks and gathered in dingy basement apartments to read their own poetry. Instead of clapping, which would disturb residents living upstairs, they snapped their fingers. More importantly, I guess,

you can snap your fingers with one hand, which leaves the other free to hold your wine glass – an important part of being a Beatnik.

Finger snapping as applause actually had its roots with the ancient Romans. Reportedly, they also flapped their togas and waved their handkerchiefs – a practice continued today, of course, at fraternity functions and sporting events.

The history of applause is rich with variations. Medieval French theater paid professional applauders to attend plays and operas. Early Christian congregations applauded sermons until Richard Wagner came along and took all the fun out of religion with his somber religious operas.

In Russia, it is customary for speakers to applaud the audience, and at functions for the deaf, people applaud by raising their hands and wiggling their fingers. I learned this last part when I attended my granddaughter’s graduation from the State School for the Deaf in Missouri several years ago.

So, hand clapping or finger snapping, if it will encourage kids to continue writing poetry, I say let’s give them a big hand.

Brick Street Market back again

By Derek Fisher • derek@youarecurrent.com

The 27th-annual Zionsville Brick Street Market will take place Saturday on Main Street.

Known throughout the Midwest for its family atmosphere, the event is hosted by the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce and will feature artisans from Indiana and surrounding states sharing their creations from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The Market, as always an admission-free event, will feature a vendor-packed food court, a children’s area replete with balloon animals and face painting, complimentary shuttle transportation and much more. The shuttle will run between Zionsville Town Hall, 1100 W. Oak St., and the festivities.

“We’re hopeful this will be a successful year,” said Dusky Loebel, Chamber of Commerce director. “We’re going to have about 175 vendors on the street under our signature white tents, and food vendors on the streets. We’re looking forward to it.”

In addition to Saturday’s excitement, Main Street will play host to Market Eve and the Z’Beer Garden on Friday night. The beer garden is new for 2012.

Market Eve, running from 7 to 9 p.m., will let patrons taste cuisine while listening to live music from blues act Willie and the Tease. The Z’Beer Garden will see select Indiana brewers present beer samples, including the premier tasting of new brews between 8 and 10:30 p.m.

“This is our fourth year of involvement with Market Eve,” Loebel said. “We’ll have 20 craft beers from local breweries, as well as a food tent that will offer gourmet food samples from local restaurants.”

Tickets for Market Eve and the Z’Beer Garden are $15 in advance and $20 at the door.

Cover story

ZCS referendum passes with 57 percent of the vote

By Derek Fisher • derek@youareuccernt.com The answer was ‘Yes.’ Zionsville voters on May 8 approved a referendum that will provide relief to the town’s financially challenged school system, just 18 months after voting down a similar measure.

In November 2010, a previous referendum was soundly defeated, with 61 percent of respondents voting no. Zionsville Community Schools hopes this referendum will help close a projected $3.1 million deficit in 2013.

Like its predecessor, the referendum was a simple yes or no proposition, but the questions – and methods of operation – now get more complicated. ZCS Supt. Dr. Scott Robison’s demeanor, while allowing subdued hints of relief, is that of a man who knows there is Robison still work to be done.

“It’s nice to have hope that the economy will improve and we will see commercial development,” he said of Zionsville’s struggling tax base, “but we need action.

We need a funding formula that will allow school districts that have traditionally had great

student outcomes to not be imperiled.”

Robison, who monitored voting returns at a local clubhouse with constituents, said the result was a declaration of the town’s mindset.

“It’s a signal that the majority of voters want us to extend opportunities for kids,” he said.

“It’s evidence of the hundreds of volunteers and the sense-making they did in the community to educate people on what was at stake.”

Simply put, what was at stake were teachers’ jobs and, as a result, class sizes. ZCS has already cut more than 50 teaching positions while adding upward of 700 pupils since 2006.

Meei-Huey Jeng, a 10-year Zionsville resident, ZCS parent and associate professor at a large state institution, said voters missed the big picture on May 8.

“The voters spoke, and we have to respect that,” she said. “I’m not worried about class sizes – teachers need to be creative and it can be done. Kids are going to college and will be with 200 people in the room; they have to adjust, and it doesn’t hurt to do it early.”

Jeng went on to say that people who voted in the affirmative were responding to fear-speak disseminated at school board meetings, and failed to grasp the magnitude of the situation.

“People were worried about losing teachers or losing band,” she explained, “but I don’t look at things emotionally, I look at graphs and data. (The referendum) is a short-term solution.

In three years, we’re going to be right back to square one.”

Others who were opposed to the referendum point to reckless spending and financial incompetence at the administrative level as a reason for ZCS’ quandary.

“Dr. Robison admitted the school board did not consider the Indiana Board of Education Citizens’ Checklist recommendations for cost cutting,” said Kathleen Fon, a member of Zionsville Taxpayers for Responsible Education.

The checklist was created to determine if school corporations have done all that is necessary to cut costs before proposing a referendum.

“Dr. Robison said local vetting was a superior approach to the checklist,” Fon continued. “I respectfully disagree and find such arrogance unacceptable.”

Debbie Ungar and Mary Reid, executive committeepersons for the Zionsville Yes Committee, said they see things in a decidedly different light.

“This was about reducing class sizes, protecting home values and restoring our schools to excellence,” said Ungar. “I think the reality of that situation convinced people that it needed to be addressed and voting ‘yes’ was the sole way to do that.”

Reid spoke to the class size issue, saying, “Even with well-behaved and well-educated children, if you have that many in a room, it’s a lot to manage. College is much more self-

Differing opinions aside, victory and satisfaction – however fleeting – are, for the moment, Robison’s.

“Thank God it was successful,” he said.

“Thank God for the kids, it was successful.”

Opinion Reserve your seats for Center gala now

Buy local – visit a farmers market It is our position that farmers markets serve as a valuable community resource by providing an outlet for Indiana farmers and growers to earn a living by giving residents easy access to locally produced fresh food.

The organic food industry has taken the nation by storm, sending a strong message by consumers that they want healthier food choices. Some of the best farmers markets in the state can be found in Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Westfield and Zionsville.

Farmers markets offer one-stop shopping for locally raised meats, seasonal fresh vegetables and fruits, honey, tea, pasta, bread, cheeses, pastries, flowers and much more.

And, who can resist strolling around the farmers market with a bag of fresh, hot, sugary, salty kettle corn; a breakfast brat from the Kiwanis or freshly brewed ice tea?

Vendors range from local family farms and restaurants to church and civic organizations.

The farmers markets also depend on hundreds of volunteers for setup, tear down, cleanup and crowd assistance. Outdoor farmers markets in Carmel and Noblesville begin Saturday, Fishers farmers markets begin May 26 and the farmers markets in Zionsville and Westfield begin in June. Support local food producers by visiting a farmers market this summer.

Uncommon request Commentary by Terry Anker

Why is it so often those who give the most require the least, even as those who rarely offer anything are abundant with needs? At a buddy’s birthday party, I caught up with a longtime friend that I’d not seen for ages. He’s the kind of human that falls into the selfless camp. He served us all in the first Gulf War and has continued to always work to make the world a better place. So, I was a little surprised when he asked me if I could take a meeting with him the coming week because of a favor he needed to solicit of me. Asked if all was well, he naturally demurred, positing that life had never been better.

With the arrival of the appointed day, we met and he shared his mission: to raise a little money to help some Vietnam-era veterans bring The Vietnam Veterans Memorial “Moving Wall” to Fort Harrison on Indianapolis’ northeast side from May 17 to May 21, to recognize the 30th anniversary of the conflict.

He earnestly recounted that these men and women were no longer young kids from newsreels. In fact, for many of them, this might be their last chance to join locally like this to recognize the sacrifice of those fallen. He reminded me that great wealth and military service rarely go hand-in-hand. Then, my friend, the decorated hero looked sheepishly across the table and added, “I wouldn’t ask for me, but these guys need the help; and I can’t do enough by myself.”

Of course – I thought – he wouldn’t ask for himself. And neither would most of these folks. Isn’t that reason enough to want to give? VVA 295, P.O. Box 269279, Lawrence, IN 46226 is the address. Donations are tax deductible.

Here’s a chance to start summer off on the right note or foot – or both! – before summer actually begins. The Center for the Performing Arts and its artistic director, Michael Feinstein, are at it again. An evening of elegance and history making is on the near horizon, and we’re excited to be able to support it. You may recall the Center’s January 2011 sold-out gala that thrilled everyone in attendance. Well, on June 16, the Center is throwing the party of parties for this summer, another black-tie gala from 5:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. The highlights of the night will be many, and they include a performance

by Barry Manilow as well as his induction into the Manilow Great American Songbook Hall of Fame, whose other inductees include Alan and Marilyn Bergman and Cole Porter.

Feinstein and other special guests also will perform. Put it this way: When Michael’s in the house, you never know what can happen. One thing’s for certain – it’s going to be a terrifically entertaining (and filling, considering the outstanding food and drink) evening. You can help the Center celebrate its wildly successful second season by being in attendance. To reserve tables, please contact the Center at its Encore Celebration Gala office at 819-3521. Organizers would appreciate hearing from you by May 24.

Another date with the dentist Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Oh. My. Lord. I cannot believe I had to go back to the dentist! You may recall from an earlier column that I have an irrational fear of dentistry, rooted in childhood trauma and a general lack of narcotics, and was trying desperately to postpone an appointment to have two cavities filled. Inspired by the bravery of my 10-year-old son, I eventually overcame my anxiety and managed to survive the unsettling procedure.

One of the teeth I had fixed continued to bother me, even after a few days of expected tenderness. Naturally I ignored it and assumed I was just taking longer than usual to adjust to the ceramic material in the filling. A week passed, however, and the discomfort worsened. I began altering my diet to avoid aggravating the tooth further, cutting out sugary foods, crunchy treats and all taffy-like substances. Nothing helped.

Subconsciously, I knew something was wrong, but I just couldn’t bear the thought of having to return to the dentist. I felt certain he would discover a missing filling or a cracked tooth or some sickening gum disease. In my denial, I preferred to suffer through a little toothache rather than learn the truth behind my pain.

But as the days wore on and my entire jaw began to throb, I reluctantly realized I’d rather face the drill again than continue to eat only on my

left side and down Advil like jelly beans. (It was similar to my weighing the pros and cons of an epidural. For the first few hours of labor I found the contractions tolerable given my alternative was a needle to the spine. But when the real poo hit the fan, I would have let that doctor stab me in the eyeball if it made the pain disappear!)

So I called the office and asked to be seen again, whenever they had an opening, preferably later in the week, next month would be fine.

Wouldn’t you know they could take me that very afternoon? Frick! But no, I had to do it. As I drove to the appointment, I purposely chewed Hubba Bubba on the sore side to prevent myself from hightailing it straight to Starbucks – do not pass go, do not collect $200. I was hurting so bad once I got in the chair that I didn’t even have time to be nervous.

Luckily, the problem was easily corrected without the need for topical anesthetics or arm restraints. Apparently my filling had not been smoothed down enough, throwing my entire bite out of whack. I basically freaked out over nothing. Ah, well, I lived to tell the tale, and that’s all that matters. Peace out.

Humor

Cutting remarks Laughs by Dick Wolfsie

I was thinking the other day about all the women in my neighborhood who mow their lawns. My wife has never mowed our lawn.

I want to ask her about it, but I am afraid she’ll assume I want her to mow the lawn, which couldn’t be further from the truth. If she started mowing the lawn, it would jeopardize our relationship by altering the delicate balance between my wife’s independence and her femininity.

Of course, if she really wanted to mow the lawn, I wouldn’t stop her. I’m just really curious why she won’t mow the lawn.

When we first got married, we lived in an apartment – you just don’t see a lot of lawnmowing women in apartments. Then we moved to a condo and again there were few really good role models for her. When we bought a house, I started mowing the lawn and have mowed our lawn for 30 years since, whenever the grass has gotten too high or the dandelions needed their heads chopped off.

Mary Ellen has never expressed any interest in this endeavor. I do vaguely remember her saying that mowing is man’s work and I should accept that. I think at the time I was changing Brett’s diaper and she was rewiring a lamp.

When I married Mary Ellen, her lack of mowing experience didn’t matter. After all, she was intelligent, beautiful, sensitive and caring.

She was all a man could want. I assumed that if push came to shove, she’d mow the lawn. But it never even came to push.

During the summer, I prefer to sit on a lounge chair and sip lemonade, but instead I have to cut the grass. That’s where a wife who’s willing to mow really comes in handy. Not that it’s that important. Just sayin’. Come to think of it, it’s chauvinistic for a man to make his wife mow the lawn. On the other hand, it’s also chauvinistic for a man to assume that a woman doesn’t know how to mow the lawn. Maybe she really wants to, but is afraid her husband doesn’t think she can do it. I’m sure that’s it.

My friend Steve’s wife mows the lawn. He was over the other day and asked me why Mary Ellen never mows the lawn. I was as honest with him as I could be. “I don’t know, Steve. I never really thought about it.”

Morning Meals Digging in to the best breakfast joints in your neighborhood

By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com We always hear people say, “There just aren’t any good places to go get breakfast.” While there certainly are fewer local restaurants specializing in breakfast than there are specializing in lunch and dinner, there are still tons of great options here in our communities.

One favorite of many earlybirds in Carmel is Bub’s Café located just south of Bub’s Burgers & Ice Cream along the Monon Trail. Bub’s Café features an extremely inviting and cheery interior that matches the quality of its food.

While the café prides itself on its Big Stack (12 pancakes), the menu also features a number of re-imagined breakfast staples including a favorite, the Bub’s Breakfast Bread Bowl (bread

bowl filled with fried potatoes, choice of meat, sausage gravy, two eggs and cheese).

The Roost at Sahm’s in Fishers offers a wide variety of breakfast staples including a number of great omelets featuring ingredients like chorizo, red onion jam and Feta cheese. Although the Roost opens as early as 6:30 a.m. during the week, breakfast is served all day.

Noblesville’s Best Bet Breakfast and Lunch is an interesting eatery with a casino motif. Featuring entrees like The Big Deal (three tacos filled with eggs and Spanish sausage) and The All In (a double order of fried potatoes mixed with three eggs, ham, sausage and more), Best Bet may have a smaller menu than other restaurants in the area but it sets itself apart with its unique offerings.

Phoenix’s ‘Avenue Q’ brings the laughs

By Jordan Fischer • jordan@youarecurrent.com

The Phoenix Theatre’s production of Robert Lopez’s and Jeff Marx’s “Avenue Q,” which finished up its run on Sunday, was an apt capturing of the puppeted satire keeping audience members rolling in laughter throughout.

The musical has always held a special place in my heart not entirely undue to the similarities between its plot and my own experiences. Led by the idealistic Princeton (played by Ben Tebbe), a just-out-of-college puppet with a “useless degree” in English and a burning desire to find his purpose, “Avenue Q” tells the tale of a group of tenants in a New York apartment who’re all trying to figure out their purpose in life – with varying degrees of success.

The Phoenix’s production featured a versatile performance from Claire Wilcher, playing both the lecherous-but-lovable Trekkie Monster and the lecherous-but-lustable Lucy the Slut. The latter puppet’s appearance strayed from the traditional buxom blonde into a more Kardashianesque figure with Day-Glo orange skin … and that might be more appropriate for today’s audiences.

As ever, the Bad Idea Bears’ endearingly terrible advice kept audiences laughing. The puppets were played by Jason Gloye and Eric J. Olson, who doubled as Rod and Nicky, respectively, and each shared an unsettling resemblance to their puppets.

Emily Ristine as Kate Monster, left, with Ben Tebbe’s Princeton. (Submitted photo)

The real star of the production, however, was theater-veteran Emily Ristine’s Kate Monster, who brought a perfect mix of bookish naïveté and grab-life-by-the-horns enthusiasm to the character.

Other notable performances included Diane Tsao Boehm’s dual role as Christmas Eve and Mrs. Thistletwat, Dakeisha Bryant’s downon-his-luck Gary Coleman, and Brian, played appropriately by R. Brian Noffke, who seemed not at all uncomfortable playing one of the few human characters on a stage of puppets.

The Phoenix Theatre’s production of “Avenue Q” was directed by Bryan Fonseca and musical director Kevin D. Smith. The next show at the Phoenix will be “Forever Sung: A Celebration of Age in Song,” created by Bryan Fonseca and Tim Brickley. The show will run May 17-26.

Film /Music

‘The Avengers’ starts the summer off right Commentary by Christian Sorrell During the past four years and across five different films, Marvel has been building the universe for the first live-action film adaptation of “The Avengers,” a long-running comic series.

The film is a moment in Hollywood history that has never been accomplished or even attempted. It is a film that acts as a sequel to five of the largest-scale action films of the past several years. Already, it is apparent that Marvel’s plan has paid off. “The Avengers” set the record for the largest domestic opening weekend with more than $207 million in ticket sales.

In the film, Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Captain America (Chris Evans), Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) join together in order to save the earth from an attacking demigod and his cosmic army.

The film does a great job of weaving together all of the previous films by featuring the villain of “Thor” using the device from “Captain America: The First Avenger.” Seeing all of these characters (and actors) in one film is extremely exciting to behold. It reminds me of the type of fantasy films I would cook up in my brain as a child that never actually came to fruition.

From beginning to end, the film is brimming with wonderful dialogue, incredible over-the-

Improvements in lip implants

Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley

Q: I have gotten lip injections using fillers for the past five years. But after five years and more than a dozen injection treatments, I am tired of the expense and the hassle (pain!) of the lip injections. I have read that there are permanent materials for lip augmentation. What can you tell about permanent lip implants?

A: Despite their existence for more than 15 years in the plastic surgery world, lip implants have never gained much traction as an everyday procedure, partly because of problems in implant design and materials and partly because of a general fear of having an “implant” in the lip. I have used every developed permanent lip implant available and have seen many of their benefits and potential problems. The newest lip implant, called PermaLip, is the best design and material that I have seen to date. It is made from a very soft and flexible silicone elastomer. Based on how it feels, it could easily be called the “Gummy Bear lip implant.” It has well-designed tapering edges, which is very important. The implants are done in the office under local anesthesia with some swelling and occasional bruising, which is largely resolved in a week after the procedure.

Q: I was looking at some before and after tummy tuck pictures and was interested.

I looked again the next day and I was able to get a closer look, and the scars are very big. I have decided I’m going to try and go to a center for weight loss and see how that works first. Approximately, how much does a tummy tuck with liposuction around the sides of the waist cost?

A: While a full tummy tuck will solve the problem in a manner otherwise not achievable, the “price” to be paid for it is the trade-off of the a long horizontal scar. While the procedure is very effective, you have to be certain that this aesthetic trade-off is worth it to you. That is why I could not agree more that you pursue every nonsurgical option first and only consider surgery when you have become convinced that all other methods are not achieving what you want. Much of plastic surgery is about trading one problem for another – you just have to be certain that the other “problem” is more acceptable than what you have now. In the case of a full tummy tuck, that aesthetic trade-off is the scar. The approximate total cost of a full tummy tuck with flank liposuction is around $8,500, all costs included.

I’m getting ready to graduate and am fortunate to have found a job that is going to allow me to finally move out of my family home. Is renters insurance something that I really need?

--Andy L. from Carmel Congratulations on the new job! Now it’s time to protect that paycheck with a renters insurance policy. People like to make a lot of excuses as to why they neglect to purchase a renters insurance policy: “I can't afford it,” “I don’t have enough stuff to insure,” “Nothing is going to happen to my stuff.” The liability protection alone is really enough reason to buy, but let’s break it down.

The first thing you need to know about renters insurance is that it’s pretty affordable.

A typical policy can cost less than $200 per year. That’s less than $4 per week. It’s worth the sacrifice. You are also in for a nice bonus if you already have car insurance. Many insurance carriers will give you a multi-policy discount if you package your auto and renters policy together with the same company.

The second thing you need to know is that your stuff is much more valuable than you realize. How much would it cost you to start over if you had a total loss? Apartments burn down and get robbed just like houses do. Starting over after a loss like that is much easier when your

independent insurance agent drops off a check to replace all of your stuff.

The last thing you need to know is probably the most important. A renters policy protects your financial assets by providing liability coverage. Liability insurance covers you for injury you cause to others and for damage to property that belongs to others. There are many ways to trigger a liability claim, so I’ve got some examples for you.

Claim scenario A: You decide to play in a recreational softball league. While batting you hit a pitch back at the pitcher, putting him in the hospital. The pitcher sues you, and your renters policy steps in to defend you and settle the suit.

Claim scenario B: You have some friends over for dinner. Your floor is wet and one of the friends slips and falls and requires medical treatment. Your renters policy steps in to pay for the treatment.

The risk of going without this simple insurance coverage is not worth the couple of dollars a week that you save by not having it. Call your independent insurance agent today and make sure you’re covered!

Move the needle – little things Commentary by CJ McClanahan During the past nine years, I have given out more than 250 copies of my favorite book, “The Success Principles,” by success coach and author Jack Canfield. Last week, I was blessed to spend a week with Jack, his staff and entrepreneurs from around the world.

It was a great opportunity to learn new strategies for getting clear about what’s really important in our lives and achieving our goals.

However, the most important lesson I took away from this week was very small.

By that, I mean I learned (actually re-learned) that it’s the little things that always lead to the greatest successes.

We are so tempted to chase after the new quick-fix solution that we completely forget that it is always about the fundamentals.

For example, I just visited Amazon.com to see which book would pop up when I searched the word “diet.” Guess what was the No. 1 selection?

“The 17 Day Diet – A Doctor’s Design Planned for Results.” Really? Seventeen days – are you kidding me?

Every single person reading this article knows exactly how to lose weight. You eat less and exercise more. In fact, it’s even easier than that – all you need to do is burn more calories each day than you consume.

That’s it. But, it takes time. A lot more than

17 days. However, if you follow the basics, you will get the results you desire.

For me, the lesson I learned was equally simple.

There are a handful of daily rituals that always lead to a successful and purpose-driven day. They include daily gratitude, affirmations and meditation. I am certain that putting these simple behaviors back into practice will lead to amazing results.

Unfortunately, I had abandoned them over the past few years and guess what happened? It’s the same thing that happens to your midsection when you eat fast food and skip the gym.

I drifted back into bad habits and got less than desirable results.

As soon as I got back to the office, I got back into the routine. I know that it will take time before I see results. In addition, I am certain that there will be days when I wonder if it’s worth the effort.

Yet, I know that if I commit to the little things, I will reap the big rewards.

As with most things in life, the solution is simple. All you need to do is execute.

Michelangelo’s “Creation of the Sun and Moon” (Photo by Don Knebel

The sun and the moon Commentary by Don Knebel

Our host for a recent meeting in Rome was a member of the distinguished Italian family that produced Pope Martin V. He was able to arrange a private tour of the Vatican Museums, ending at the Sistine Chapel. Allowed to wander freely, we saw both the familiar and the mildly shocking.

Michelangelo’s most famous scene, in the center of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, shows God almost touching the finger of Adam. In 1990, F. Lynn Meshberger, who now practices medicine in Anderson, provided an alternative to the traditional explanation that God is giving life to Adam.

While a medical student, he published an article demonstrating that God’s cape and various protruding appendages closely mimic the shape and structures of the human brain. He suggested that Michelangelo, who studied human anatomy, may have intended to show God giving Adam the gift of intelligence. That story, without the student’s name, is routinely told by Sistine Chapel guides.

Near the end of our visit, my wife noticed a scene that was not called out by our guide. A panel over the altar, showing God creating the sun and the moon, includes what can most delicately be described as an undraped and provocatively directed male derriere, apparently that of God. Some speculate this scene was Michelangelo’s way of insulting Pope Julius II for making

him spend four years painting frescoes when he wanted instead to be a sculptor. Others piously suggest Michelangelo was illustrating that people are not supposed to see the face of God, which seems a stretch because God’s face is shown in the same panel.

Perhaps there is no message – the Sistine Chapel ceiling shows a lot of uncovered flesh reflecting only Michelangelo’s virtuosity. Whatever its raison d’être, Michelangelo’s moon reflects an eternal truth: The greater the artist, the greater the mystery.

Crash course on container gardening Commentary by Chris Arney

Are you limited on gardening space? Just about any plant will thrive when grown in a container. Understanding the basics to this type of gardening will give you a summer full of blooms and vegetables.

Most importantly, use the proper sized pot.

Match the container size to the mature plant size, not the seedling you are looking at. Small pots hold a limited amount of water, so unless you want to water several times a day, start with a large container. For large leafy plants like tomatoes, use at least a five-gallon pot. All garden containers need to have holes in the bottom for proper drainage.

Most potting soil mixes will work well in a container garden. Potting soil is engineered to meet the unique demands of growing plants in containers. Avoid using garden soil or topsoil as the growing medium in your containers. Feel free to mix in some compost, but not more than 20 percent.

Water your plants often. When watering, add enough until you see water leaking out of

the bottom of the pot. The soil will only hold so much water and the rest will drain away.

Add a water-soluble fertilizer to your watering program twice a week. Mix the fertilizer at the labeled rate to avoid burning the leaves of your plants.

There are many planter types available. Terra cotta pots are great, but plants in them tend to dry out quickly as the container actually wicks moisture from the soil. Plastic and concrete planters work great, however the latter can become extremely heavy once it is full. Feel free to get creative – old galvanized tubs, wheelbarrows, milk cans and jugs make fantastic garden containers.

Adding a trellis is great for trailing plants like Mandeville, sweet potato vine and cucumbers.

Container gardening can also accent your current landscape and garden.

Basement wine bar functions for whole family

www.CarmelFest.net Sponsored in part by:

Remodeling by Larry Greene ORIGINAL BASEMENT: This home, located in the Woods at Grey Eagle subdivision in Fishers, was built as a custom spec home in 2005, and the homeowners moved in during 2006. According to the owners, “Although the basement was fairly nicely finished, we still wanted it more customized to our family’s needs. It was an alternative to moving – we took what we had and made it our own.”

OPENING UP WALL: The wall separating the existing wet bar from the other finished room was opened up to provide a unifying feeling. New stained paneling was added to the back wall including a new French door opening to the theater room. A wrap-around granite countertop was added in addition to the wine storage wall that included new wine racks, cubbies and cubes. The electrical upgrades include new pendants, recessed can lights and LED lights in the wine cabinets.

WINE BAR DETAILS: The goal of the project was to turn the original plain wet bar into an expanded wine bar experience. The owner commented, “My favorite part of the new basement is the wine wall. It looks very custom and fits the space to a 'T.' The trim carpenters and design team paid great attention to the details. They took a look at the style of the rest of my home, the details that the builder added, and incorporated these into the basement remodel. The custom moldings and even the door hardware were brought into the basement design. Someone first visiting our home would never know that the basement was remodeled – it looks like it was built at the same time as the rest of the house.”

FINAL RESULTS: The homeowners commented, “We are using the basement every day. The kids like to go down there and sit at the bar to 24 | May 15, 2012
