As of May 28, Stevens had not been released on bond.

According to ZFD, Stevens previously served the department as a firefighter/paramedic and served in the U.S. Marine Corps.

Infantry from 1992 to 1996.

Stevens is the second man with Zionsville ties to be charged with possession of child pornography in recent weeks.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children also received a cyber tip May 12 reporting Steven Kasyjanski of Zionsville had used “a social media platform” to possess “child exploitative materials,” according to the Boone County Sheriff’s Office.

Kasyjanski was a volunteer parent coach at the Zionsville Youth Soccer Association.

Zionsville Police Dept. Public Information Officer Lt. Drake Sterling said the department does not believe there is a connection between the two cases.

ZCC tests compostable packaging at restaurants

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Chamber of Commerce recently received a $2,600 grant from the Boone County Solid GOING GREEN Waste Management District to test the use of compostable packaging in Zionsville restaurants.

The grant will be used to purchase approximately one week’s worth of compostable packaging containers for four ZCC-member restaurants: Salty Cowboy Tequileria, Zionsville Pizzeria, Cobblestone and Hotel Tango’s Zionsville location, according to ZCC Executive Director Allyson Gutwein.

The restaurants, which had received initial shipments of the compostable packages

by May 26, were to be the chamber’s test

runs of the idea.

If the packages receive favorable feedback, the chamber wants to apply for more grants with the goal of raising enough funds to provide every chamber restaurant member with a month’s supply of compostable packaging, Gutwein said. By providing a free month’s supply, the chamber wants to encourage restaurants to incorporate compostable packaging into their business models.

“That’s going to be a much larger ask,” Gutwein said. “This is essentially a foray into, ‘What does it look like for our restaurants to use compostable packaging? And if we are going to use it, does it make financial sense for those restaurants, and what is the barrier to entry?”

Compostable packages are made of materials that decompose into nutrient-rich soil

significantly faster than packages made of other materials, such as non-compostable plastics or Styrofoam.

“With so many people doing carryout these days, there’s a lot more packaging that’s going into the landfill,” Gutwein said. “Especially during COVID, people were wonderful in supporting our restaurants, but that also means that instead of using a plate that is reused at a restaurant, they are now using and sending home with people packaging that is intended to be single-use packaging. And as all of this goes into the landfill, we are filling up our landfill with more and more trash that is going to take a long time to break down.”

Gutwein said the chamber would continue to look for more opportunities to promote sustainable packaging alternatives.

Zionsville family to open wedding venue Three years ago, Zionsville resident Shelby Henry, 24, approached her parents, Chris and Tana Henry, GRAND OPENING with an idea that would marry her eye for art and her parents’ landscaping skills to create a wedding venue in her hometown.

Shelby, a photographer, felt there was a need for a charming yet practical wedding venue in the town because she believes couples shouldn’t have to choose between the two. Chris, the project’s general contractor, lent his expertise, and, along with Tana, the three built and co-own The Sixpence, a wedding venue whose grand opening is scheduled for June 18.

The 8,000-square-foot venue has three event spaces on 17 acres about 15 minutes from downtown Zionsville, Shelby said.

Shelby developed an interest in photography and videography while attending Palm Beach Atlantic University. She now owns her own photography business, Amavi.

“I was working a lot of weddings,” Shelby

said. “We do a lot of destinations all over the country, and then, ultimately, we were coming from Florida back to Indy to shoot a lot of weddings there. It gave me a chance to see a lot of wedding venues. I got the chance to see in venues what worked really

well, and I got the chance to see wedding venues that didn’t work as well, for whatever reason.”

Shelby envisioned creating a unique venue in Zionsville that would allow couples to choose a wedding that was beautiful and functional. The venue, which resembles a large barn, is fully insulated.

“I wanted to put together a space that was pretty and could give that rustic, elegant charm but also give clients all the amenities that they need,” Shelby said.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Shelby and her parents designed and built the venue.

She said the project brought them closer together.

“It’s been so fun,” Shelby said. “There’s just those pieces in the family that all came together, and I honestly think that my dad’s eye for functionality and my eye for beauty as a photographer (meshed). We butted heads, but it was always in the right way.

It was always to figure out the solution for a specific thing. I think it’s always a little bit nerve-wracking to think of working with family this closely on a project that matters this much, but it was a joy.”

Nature is in full bloom Commentary by Ward Degler OK, who pushed the “grow” button on my lawn and gardens? Two weeks ago, I was celebrating the miPLAIN TALK croscopic emergence of a few tiny, anemic buds on the shrubs and a couple sprigs of Kentucky Blue Grass in the yard. I even talked to my peonies, encouraging them to leaf out, get with the program, look alive.

Fast-forward a week. Overnight, the grass grew 6 inches. The dogwood suddenly shifted from pathetic bare branches to full bloom, and the peonies were arrogantly galloping to full flower.

My mower struggled to chew through the tall grass. I swear I could hear it growing as I mowed. Weeds popped up in my wake and threatened to take over the hosta beds.

Weeds that weren’t even there a day earlier were there now.

A couple other things: Last summer’s blistering heat and drought killed my ferns.

Or so I thought. Despite daily watering, the once flowery ostrich plume fronds turned brown and crumbled to dust. While I was pondering a week ago what to plant to replace them, they popped their little fiddleheads through the ground. Two days later, they were 3 feet tall. I’m not kidding.

For 40 years, my backyard has never been a lawn. Despite hundreds of dollars worth of grass seed and fertilizer, that halfacre of real estate has persistently turned from mud to dust and back again. Two years ago, I finally refused to spend another cent on seed or feed. Magically, this year it is the most beautiful rich lawn I’ve ever seen. I’ve mowed it twice.

Then, there’s the money plant. Those silver dollar seed disks are cool. I had a single plant emerge a few years ago, and I planted the seeds in a dozen different areas around my yard. Nothing. Not a sprig.

This year, I can’t count all the money plants. They are everywhere. Sure, I’ll make a lot of silver dollar bouquets this fall, but I won’t even think about planting the seeds.

I also planted milkweed this spring in hopes of helping out some monarch butterflies. Sadly, nothing has sprouted.

Yeah, I get it — that will happen three years from now. Meanwhile, I need to mow again.

Birds more than a hobby for Zionsville resident

By Ward Degler news@currentzionsville.com When Ted Stowe was 5 years old, he wanted nothing more than to set up bird feeders in his backyard and watch the birds.

“I realized that was a weird interest for a little kid, but even then, I was passionate about birds,” Stowe said.

Even though his early interest was sparked by an allergy to the sun that kept him inside much of the time, his love of birds created a path for a full-time occupation. His company, Custom Backyard Birding Solutions, focuses on just about everything to do with birds.

Stowe, 42, provides equipment, feeders, birdhouses and assorted seed mixtures designed to attract and nurture the broadest possible variety of birds. He also services birdhouses and feeders for a growing number of clients in central Indiana and works with new clients to help them get started with their own backyard birding programs.

His early interest in birds was supported by an older brother who worked part time at a nature store and brought home catalogs and magazine articles about birds.

“We had a lot of birds at our home,” Stowe said. “And at one time, we even had a snowy owl in our backyard. Bird lovers used to come just to see it.”

Stowe’s interests were not limited to birds, and his pursuits have taken him on a circuitous route to where he is today.

“I developed a love for history in school,” Stowe said. “I was fascinated by the story of our country, and I even memorized the names of all of our presidents.”

In college, he decided to become a teacher and pursued a history major with a minor in political science. While working toward his master’s degree in elementary education, he took additional courses in special education. After graduating, he spent two years working 1-on-1 with special needs children.

“I liked the idea of helping others,” Stowe said. “And working with autistic youngsters and with those with Asperger syndrome was deeply rewarding.”

While working as a special needs teacher, Stowe recognized a strong mental health

link with birds and nature. He said a number of studies show bird watching lowers stress, anxiety and depression. A program sponsored by the University of Michigan determined that spending just one hour outside improved memory performance and attention span as much as 20 percent.

An elementary school teacher in Vermont established a weekly “forest day” for her students and noticed a dramatic increase in developmental skills. Her success has led a number of other schools to initiate “forest days” for their students.

“I try to share as much of this information as possible with my clients,” Stowe said. “Being involved with birds really does improve mental health. Bird feeding offers people an opportunity to reset. I often see people walking around, looking down at their cellphones, and we know this can create anxiety.

“I’m here to provide a service that

helps alleviate that stress and increase happiness.”

To keep on top of the latest trends in birding, he enrolls in online ornithology courses through Cornell University.

Stowe said his business has skyrocketed during the pandemic.

“People confined to their homes for weeks on end have found pleasure in feeding and watching birds,” Stowe said.

He offers a variety of different seed combinations to attract various species to the feeders.

“A lot of birds are seasonal, and the right kind of feed can bring them to our backyards while they are in the area,” Stowe said.

One example is Baltimore orioles, which winter in Central America and spend a few weeks in the Midwest during the spring on their way to mating and nesting areas in the north. Stowe’s oriole feeders are bright orange with pegs to hold orange slices and

small trays for grape jelly, which the birds find irresistible.

Other birds Stowe’s feeders attract include cedar waxwings, grosbeaks, warblers, finches, flickers, catbirds and woodpeckers.

He also has special bluebird houses that he places in strategic spots in clients’ yards.

“Bluebirds are finicky,” Stowe said. “The house has to face in the right direction and needs to be in an open area before the female will nest.”

Stowe lives in Zionsville with his wife, Katie, and their 11-year-old son, Dylan. He says that while he enjoyed teaching and working with special needs children, getting people involved with birds is about as good as life can get.

HUMOR

Nothing free

Mood swings

Commentary by Terry Anker You scratch our back, and we’ll scratch yours. We all win. So, if we’re completely amenable, why don’t you scratch ours first? Well, that may be a problem. What if there isn’t quite enough time for us to both get an adequate remedy for our itch? Isn’t our need slightly greater than yours? Besides, we promise that we’ll get to you next — at the very least you can go first the next time.

Our intentions are good. We understand that we are better off sharing resources and taking care of After watching each other. But the undeserving we also know that often there win over and are not enough over again, we cookies to go begin to wonder around. We know when it will be that there are those who don’t, our turn. won’t, or can’t – TERRY ANKER pay back for what they take.

And sadly, we know that some of us will lie, cheat and defraud — so much so that over time we can become a bit cynical.

After buying lunch three times in a row, we are more inclined to let the check sit on the table waiting for our colleague to find their wallet. After watching the undeserving win over and over again, we begin to wonder when it will be our turn.

In a world of scarce resources, competition is inevitable. Our challenge is to think abundantly while being realistic about the value of our exchange. In a world where all is free, there is free-forall for all. Our challenge is to remember that there is no free, and that we must constrain ourselves just as we expect to constrain others. In a world where trust is lost, patience goes with it. Our challenge is to trust first, knowing that we will sometimes be betrayed by that generosity. As we reconsider the fundamentals of social order, is it right to expect a promised back scratch to be delivered?

Friends, it’s been a week of ups and downs — with the mid-level emotional event being my crawling under a Walmart dressing room door to unlock it for a very pregnant stranger. I should probably stop there, but so much happened!

And while I would like to focus on the highs — braiding my youngest’s hair for her first prom, laughing as her brother described his successful job interview, celebrating with extended family at a niece’s graduation party — it was unfortunately one of the lows that will stick with me.

Our cat Ginger has been slowly declining the past couple of months and recently took a definite turn for the worse. Her meows softened to barely audible levels, she stopped eating and a few days ago began hiding in unusual places. We’d hoped she would make it until our other girl-child returned from college but realized that wasn’t going to happen.

We called around to find a vet who had an opening, and along with the aforementioned youngest, took Ginger to, well, die. I was a mess, although it did calm me somewhat to find the “death room” stocked with beautiful sample urns and an electric candle.

My daughter and I elected to stay for the procedure, while my husband Doo fled for the psychological safety of the minivan.

It was quick and peaceful and heartbreaking, and I don’t regret being with Ginger in her last moments. But that’s now the image I have of her, on that table, body skinny, and still, forever, asleep.

Thank god for my Walmart antics! I much prefer ambivalence and a disgusting floor to emotional extremes.

Peace out.

Just FYI from AARP Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I just received my 304th copy of the AARP Bulletin, a publication that has arrived in my mailbox every month since I HUMOR turned 50. I didn’t read it when I was in my 50s because I resented being seen as a senior then. Now I’m in my 70s and I don’t want anyone telling me how to eat healthy, boost my brain power, sleep well, improve my memory or how to choose the best walk-in tub.

In the May issue, I glanced at the lead article: “60 Ways to Live Longer, Stronger, Better.”

Here are some of the actual entries, with a few snide comments by me, added in parentheses.

• Take a Do Not Disturb Break: Close your eyes for five minutes and don’t open them for anyone (I tried that this past Friday just before I heard the Amazon delivery truck pull up. I raced outside to get my new headphones and collided with my mailbox).

• Store fruit in the front of the fridge: You will be more apt to eat a healthy snack that way (but now I’ve stepped on all the blueberries that scattered all across the kitchen floor when I jammed my arm inside the top shelf to reach the Oscar Mayer Bologna).

• Do the dishwasher boogie: Do what you hate and turn it into a party. For example, dance in front of the dishwasher as you load it. This will remind you both how much fun you can have together (Mary Ellen and I waltzed around the recycling bin after we rolled

it to the curb Sunday night. The neighbors all laughed at us because they knew pickup wasn’t until next week).

Choose fragrance-free products (for Mother’s Day, I bought Mary Ellen a fragrance-free perfume. (Did she ever wear it? I’ll never know).

Bring plants into your home: Plants make you feel relaxed and free of stress (wait a second, aren’t those plants illegal in Indiana?).

Take time to appreciate your partner’s skin: (I thought that sounded very romantic, then AARP added, “Be on the lookout for moles.” Well, that kind of ruined the mood).

Once a week, try to learn something new (I did this over the last month and now I have four new things I’m lousy at).

Decorate healthfully: If you keep chocolates on the cocktail table, hide them (AARP is assuming if you are old enough to get its AARP Bulletin, you won’t remember where you hid them).

Finally, do an hourly posture check: Sit or stand tall with your feet flat on the floor. Look straight ahead, bringing your shoulders back and slightly tuck in your chin (then take a selfie. But it won’t matter. You’ll still look 30 years older than you really are).

ADVANCED FAMILY DENTISTRY HOLDS RIBBON-CUTTING CEREMONY FOR ZIONSVILLE OFFICE

PROVEN EXPERTISE for uncertain markets.

The Zionsville Chamber of Commerce held a ribbon-cutting ceremony May 22 for Advanced Family Dentistry’s Zionsville office.

DISPATCHES IPOs to watch for in 2021 — Last year, IPOs soared in an investor frenzy not seen in years with nearly 220 companies offering stocks worth $78 billion. Airbnb, the online lodging rental site, surged 113 percent on its first day of trading, topping $100 billion in market capitalization. Even though IPOs should continue to attract enthusiasm this year, potential investors still need to be choosy, read the prospectus of a company about to go public, seek advice from their brokers and proceed carefully. Many of the firms have meteoric growth but little or no profits. Although the average IPO in 2020 enjoyed a 41 percent first-day return, most of those potential profits went to institutional investors who scooped up initial IPO shares in advance. Upcoming or recent IPO stocks worth considering include: Bumble: The stigma of online dating is gone thanks to coronavirus. Bumble has become the world’s second-largest dating app behind Tinder, which appeals to singles under age 35. In 2020, 100 million users in 150 countries signed up with Bumble, a 33 percent increase from the previous year. Its secret? Appealing to young single women.

Users swipe left or right to indicate inter-

est in matches, but unlike Tinder, the app requires that women make the first move.

It is free, but Bumble earns revenues via premium add-on features. The stock has the potential to do as well as Match Group (the owner of Tinder), which has risen more than 700 percent since its 2015 IPO. DigitalOcean: With the pandemic accelerating the transition of businesses to the cloud, most people have become familiar with companies such as Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. But this under-the-radar firm is the world’s other leading cloud platform and infrastructure provider. Like those giants, it helps software developers and businesses transfer data, communications and software-based operations onto the Internet and set up customized servers. But DigitalOcean provides low-cost services for more than 700,000 small businesses that need more affordable cloud services than large corporations. The company is backed by Silicon Valley venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, who has been an early investor in startups ranging from Facebook to Twitter.

Explosive new mystery-thriller from local playwright and award-winning author Gen LaGreca

World Premier Coming to the CAT

Zionsville will host Indiana’s only professional pickleball tournament and offer free pickleball clinics from June 3-6.

SPORTS Rick Witsken, a local pickleball pro and the top-ranked professional senior pickleball player in the world, has, along with his wife, Bridget, lobbied to bring a pickleball tournament to the Indianapolis area for several years. Witsken has secured the Indianapolis Pickleball Open, an Association of Pickleball Professionals tournament, which he said expects more than 600 participants.

“My wife, Bridget Witsken, and I have been partners with the APP Tour, which is one of two pickleball tours in the country,” Witsken said. “We partnered with APP Tour CEO (and creative founder) Ken Herrmann to bring the tour to the state of Indiana. This is the only stop on tour in Indiana. That was our goal. I wanted to bring it to the amazing community of Zionsville.

“I’ve been going around playing (pickleball) professionally and running camps and clinics all over the country, and I thought, ‘Boy, how neat would it be to have a stop in Zionsville, Ind.’” And because of the Witskens’ efforts, Hoosiers can watch professionals play for the first time in Indiana at 4400 S. 875 E. Tickets are $10.

A free clinic also will be offered from 2 to 4 p.m. June 3 for Zionsville pickleball players ages 10 to 17 at the high school tennis complex. From 4 to 6 p.m. that day, Witsken, professional pickleball player Zane Navratil and other coaches will conduct an open

clinic for advanced players.

Witsken said the tournament is an extension of the growing interest in the sport.

He said pickleball has become the fastest-growing sport in the nation in the last five years because of its accessibility and the relative ease most people — young or old — can pick up the sport.

“I do think the quarantine was a big facilitator of the growth of the sport because so many people in their cul-de-sac or in their driveways or apartment complexes pulled out a net and paddles and started playing,” Witsken said.

Witsken said he hopes the tournament will be a catalyst for the sport’s growth in the area. He said he also wants to establish dedicated pickleball courts in Zionsville. All the town’s pickleball courts are on tennis courts with added pickleball lines.

Carmel Symphony Orchestra’s 2021-22 schedule offers wide variety of music

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel Symphony Orchestra Artistic Director Janna Hymes can’t wait to see a full orchestra and a full PallaMUSIC dium for the 2021-22 season.

“Getting everyone back on stage playing a full repertoire as opposed to chamber music (is exciting),” Hymes said. “We’re looking forward to having a full, packed theater where people can sit next to each other and feel comfortable and be back to where we were two years ago.”

With a limited audience capacity of approximately 25 percent since March 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic for all live performances at Carmel’s Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts, Hymes said the CSO sold out every ticket it was permitted to sell.

Hymes said she is grateful for the support the CSO received during the challenging times.

The CSO will kick off its 2021-22 with its 8 p.m. performance July

Following a side-by-side concert with Fishers High School March 6, there will be Masterworks concerts March 12 and April 23. The April 23 concert will feature guest artist Edgar Meyer on double bass.

Hymes said it seems fitting because Meyer was scheduled to perform March 14, 2020, when the concert was canceled because the Center for the Performing Arts closed March 13 because of the pandemic.

“It will be nice to end the season with that and come full circle,” Hymes said. “It’s Janna Hymes, the Carmel Symphony Ora dynamic, exceptional season and we chestra artistic director, looks forward to cannot wait to welcome music lovers from the full 2021-22 concert season.

Performers enjoy ‘Ever After’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Christy Altomare arrived in Carmel two days before she took the stage to sing songs from “Ever After” in THEATER front of an audience.

“They gave me six songs before I got here, and when I got here they cut two songs and added two new songs,” said Altomare, who starred in Broadway’s “Anastasia.” “You’re always flying by the seat of your pants.

“This team is exceptional. Carmel has treated us like royalty.”

Altomare and fellow Broadway performer Corey Cott arrived near the end of founder Joel Kirk’s Discovering Broadway’s writers’ retreat for the pre-Broadway process of “Ever After.” The two performed songs during two performances May 23 at Feinstein’s at the Hotel Carmichael in Carmel.

Kirk, a 2012 Carmel High School graduate, hosted “The Devil Wears Prada” writers’ retreat in February.

Cott and Altomare had previously done separate table readings for “Ever After.”

Altomare and Cott won’t necessarily be

cast in “Ever After,” but both would like the opportunity if they were offered the role and weren’t committed to another show.

“If they would ever ask me to do this, in a heartbeat I would say yes,” Altomare said.

Cott said learning the songs quickly was challenging.

“But we’re game for the challenge,” Cott said. “Sometimes you learn new lines and have to put it in that night.”

Carmel Gazebo series returns

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Summer Family Concert Series at the Gazebo in Carmel disappeared in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.

MUSIC But to the delight of the volunteer concert committee, the sponsors and the audience, the series returns with free weekly Wednesday concerts June 2 through Sept. 22. The concerts are from 7 to 9 p.m.

“We’re so appreciative that our community responds well to these concerts, and we have missed them,” said Kelli Prader, a member of the Fountain Square Committee, organizers of the concert series. “We’ve had very positive social media buzz. We’re not sure who is more excited for the concert — our planning committee or the fans of this concert series.”

The Carmel Fire Dept. will be on-site with its COVID-19 information booth to hand out information on vaccinations, virus prevention and safety and answer questions from the public. CFD will offer free bottles of hand sanitizer and disposable face masks.

“We are taking COVID precautions by

providing extra self-standing hand-sanitizing stations throughout the Gazebo lawn,” Prader said. “Restrooms under the Civic Square Fountain, as well as City Hall, will be provided to the public for access to extra hand washing. We’ve added an extra City Hall lobby attendant, as well as extra cleaning duties to the nighttime City Hall maintenance staff, for a clean environment.”

The schedule includes several audience favorites and two series newcomers, the Nauti Yachtys and Duelranger.

“The first drum beat or strum of a guitar on June 2 will remind us there’s nothing like live music,” Prader said.

The Carmel Gazebo concert series celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2018.

The summer schedule includes June 2: The Flying Toasters; June 9: Rick K; June 16: Blair Clark; June 23: The Doo: July 7: Duelranger; July 14: 45RPM; July 21: Living Proof; July 28: The Bishops; Aug. 4: My Yellow Rickshaw: Aug. 11: The Woomblies Rock Orchestra: Aug. 18: Country Summer: Aug. 25: Stella Luna & the Satellites; Sept. 1: Mix Tape; Sept.

Address: 9061 N. 700 W., McCordsville What to get: Sweet summer strawberry artisan pizza Price: $16.99 Anna’s take: Daniel’s Vineyard has a beautiful atmosphere and is a great place to go with friends or on a date to enjoy excellent wine, live music and, most important, artisan pizza. I’ll probably lose some fans for this, but I hate thick-crust pizza.

Any pizza that even remotely resembles a casserole is not the pizza for me, so I love that Daniel’s Vineyard creates pizzas on a thin, artisan crust. Pizza and wine may seem like a strange pairing, but Daniel’s Vineyard’s sophisticated toppings make the overall experience delightful. My favorite was the sweet summer strawberry pizza, a

new offering made with a sweet chili glaze, grilled chicken, local strawberries, Greek goat cheese yogurt, diced bacon and greens atop a delicate cauliflower crust. It was light and tasty and is an excellent dish to enjoy in the heat of summer. Other pizzas I tried were the Daniel’s CBR, or chicken bacon ranch, and the Margherita, which is always a crowd favorite. Suggested pairings: The watermelon rose canned wine paired delightfully with the sweet summer strawberry pizza. Don’t dismiss the canned wine at Daniel’s Vineyard until you try it. Trust me, it’s incredible.

Blueprint for Improvement: Wine lover’s dream in Zionsville Commentary by Larry Greene This 2006 home is in Zionsville’s Stonegate neighborhood. The owners wanted to add a wine cellar and update the finishes in the basement.

After

THE BLUEPRINT • The wet bar was moved to an adjoining wall to create space for the wine cellar.

• Insulated glass was used in the windows and door of the wine cellar to regulate temperature.

• The wine racking was stained to match the cabinetry in the bar.

• The backsplash tile has a playful metallic finish.

• In the living room, built-in bookshelves flank the newly refinished fireplace, featuring a granite hearth and stone veneer.

History of Al-Aqsa Mosque and Temple Mount Commentary by Don Knebel The recent violent conflicts between Israelis and Palestinians grew from a confrontation at Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa TRAVEL (or El-Aksa) Mosque, located on a spot important to Muslims, Jews and Christians.

In A.D, 70, Roman forces sent to Jerusalem to put down a revolt destroyed the Jewish Second Temple, rebuilt by King Herod on a platform known as the “Temple Mount.”

By the seventh century, the mostly Christian residents of Jerusalem were reportedly using the Temple Mount as their garbage dump. In 638, Muslim forces captured Jerusalem, toward which Muhammad had originally directed his followers to pray. According to the Quran, Muhammad made a magical night journey from Mecca to “al-masjid al-aqsa” (the farthest mosque). Later writings said he traveled from there to heaven.

Not discovering the farthest mosque, which they believed had been in Jerusalem, Muslim rulers built a small prayer hall they called

Al-Aqsa Mosque has been rebuilt and enlarged many times. Christian Crusaders repurposed it as a palace, adding a rose window to an area used as a chapel. Today, Al-Aqsa Mosque, its original southern wall and Crusader window intact, encloses more than 1 acre, accommodating 4,000 worshippers. The carpeted interior is divided into seven aisles by columns donated by Benito Mussolini. Because of its association with Muhammad’s visit to heaven, Al-Aqsa Mosque is the third-holiest place on Earth for most Muslims, after mosques in Mecca and Medina, Saudi Arabia. Non-Muslims cannot enter Al-Aqsa Mosque but can explore the Temple Mount, all of which Muslims consider to be a mosque, so long as they refrain from praying.

English gamut of kooks, coots and hearty soups Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt The English language is nutty. It can be understood through tough, thorough thought, though. I wanted to find a way to add the word “trough” GRAMMAR GUY to the last sentence, but I feared being thrown out throughout the touted trout throat. See? I knew it wouldn’t work.

Yes, English is wild. That’s why I want to help clear up a few syntactical slip-ups we make from time to time. After all, mastery of the English language will make you irresistible to attractive people and will cause rich people to hand you heavy, velvet-lined sacks filled with gold bars.

Let’s start with “kook” and “coot.” As a grammar columnist, I’ve been bestowed with both monikers from avid readers. But, beware: These words aren’t the same. In general usage, a “kook” is an unrestrained

eccentric person. In surfing terminology, a “kook” is a poser who has no idea what he’s doing and shouldn’t even be allowed on the beach. A “coot,” on the other hand, is a foolish person and usually an older foolish person. A “coot” also is a type of dark gray aquatic bird.

When I think of a “kook,” I think of a free-spirited eccentric person, while I consider a “coot” an elderly eccentric person.

See the difference?

Now, I want to tackle “gamut” and “gambit.” A “gamut” is a complete range of musical notes, or, more broadly, the entire range or scope of something. Someone who “runs the gamut” experiences the entire range of whatever they’re experiencing (e.g., emotions). In general, a “gambit” is a calculated move. The term comes from chess, for making a deliberately risky opening move intended to give a player a strategic advantage.

How do you know if something is “hardy” or “hearty”? If you’re involved in a fictional mystery being solved by a pair of brothers, you’re in a “Hardy Boys” book. If you’re looking for a plant that is difficult to kill, you want a “hardy” plant. “Hardy” means tough and capable of enduring hardship. If I want a warm meal that will satisfy my hunger, I

might opt for a “hearty” soup.
