ZPD says drive sober or get pulled over

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com The Boone County Sheriff’s Office, Lebanon Police Dept., Zionsville Police Dept., Whitestown Police Dept., have formed a trafcrime fic safety partnership to convey a direct message for motorists: Drive sober or get pulled over.

Last week, the group of officers announced a ‘zero tolerance policy’ for anyone attempting to drive while impaired.

“Drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs will be immediately arrested and taken to jail,” said sheriff deputy Ryan Musgrave. “Officers will be working overtime to identify and apprehend those who disregard our message.”

Law enforcement agencies from across Indiana are participating in the national “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign, which is now underway and lasts through Labor Day. In 2013, there were 114 fatal alcohol-impaired collisions in Indiana. This accounted for 16 percent of all fatal crashes. Those most likely to be involved in an alcohol-related crash are between

the ages of 21 and 44. There was a 24 percent decrease in fatal collisions between 2012 and 2013.

“The decrease in the number of fatal crashes is a sign that drivers are responding to our message,” Musgrave said. “One life lost is too many, so we’ll continue to be out in force to catch those who make the unacceptable decision to drive while impaired.”

Musgrave added the community can help in getting dangerous drivers off the road.

“If you see someone driving in a manner you suspect of being impaired, there is a high probability you are right,” Musgrave said. “Call 911 immediately and report the location, description, and direction the vehicle is traveling. This will help officers observe the activity of the suspect and take necessary action to prevent a possible tragedy.”

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration provided the funds for overtime enforcement and the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute works with state and local law enforcement agencies to administer the program.

ZCS board recap news@currentzionsville.com

At the Aug. 11 Zionsville Community Schools Board of Trustees meeting, members of the board talked about building preparations for the new school year.

What happened: The board said snow make-up days will be done electronically and in June.

What it means: Zionsville Schools was approved last month to pilot e-learning in real time instead of make-up days added to the end of the year. After more discussion with teachers, they hope to be ready to implement e-Learning days by early winter if needed. The Indiana Dept. of Education has approved ZCS’ use of e-days during winter closings.

What’s next: What’s next: As Supt. Dr. Scott Robison said, everyone must wait for “mother nature” to decide how the winter will be.

What happened: Pleasant View Elementary Phase II bids were discussed and passed.

What it means: The Board moved that the contracts be awarded to the low bid contractors as presented and recommended by the Skillman Corporation for improvements to be made. This includes repairs that were projected to cost $540,000, but were bid at a cost of $273,207, well below the estimated cost.

What’s next: Completion of the PVE repairs projected will be in December.

What happened: Newly appointed administrators Jenny Froehle and Kris Deveraux spoke about their new department.

What it means: Froehle told the board what her department is responsible for, including that she and Deveraux are in charge of reviewing yearly ISTEP scores. “I think we’re extremely fortunate that we have students that come from homes dedicated to learn … and I think our results speak to that … We don’t see extreme changes from past years,” Froehle said. “We feel very fortunate that we can focus on going beyond those basic standards.”

Muzak – the beat goes on Commentary by Ward Degler I’ve long wondered which genius decided we can’t do anything unless we have music oozing from nearby speakers.

Plain talk Go anywhere, and there it is, following you through the mall, the grocery store, the dentist’s office and the bowling alley. Even the shopping mall parking lots are adrift these days with the soft strains of easy-listening music.

It goes by a lot of names, including piped-in music, background music and, of course, elevator music. But the most responsible party was a company called Muzak.

In 1910 U.S. Army Major General George Owen Squier was tinkering around with ways to make the Signal Corps more useful to the military when he stumbled on a way to send multiple analog signals across a single wire.

While the discovery would later be the force that joined early computers to routers and thus to the Internet, Squiers saw it as an immediate means to provide music to electric company customers, who paid a fee for the service as part of their electric bills. It was immediately successful because the only other source of music in the home at that time was radio which was still in its infancy, and prohibitively expensive.

Squiers’ first company, formed in 1922 was called Wired Radio. Twelve years later he changed it to Muzak, a moniker that would be-

come the all-inclusive ID for subscription music.

When radios got cheaper and entered the “everyone has one” category in the 1940s, Squiers changed the focus of his business to one of marketing assistant to retail, professional and industrial venues. He developed different kinds of instrumental music specifically designed, he said, to make people relax in the dentist’s office, alert in the workplace, and joyful while shopping.

Overnight, Muzak was everywhere, and people began calling it “elevator music.”

In the late 1970s Muzak came out with “Music for Airports,” a short-lived sequence of weird, ambient sounds supposedly aimed at preparing the traveler for new horizons. To me it sounded more like a bunch of birds trapped in the air vents.

The media, meanwhile, dubbed Muzak “pseudo-science,” unworthy of serious consideration.

And yet, it persisted for the simple apparent reason that it worked. People seemed to be happy when shopping.

Unfortunately, constantly evolving changes in music trends and technology left Muzak unable to keep up. Falling further behind, business faded until the company declared bankruptcy in 2009.

Still, the beat goes on, even in elevators.

From classrooms to crosswalks How ZWMS students influenced local government

By Sophie Pappas sophie@youarecurrent.com While building a crossway in some towns may seem like the most mundane of projects, it was no small feat in Whitescover story town this year.

Last week, the town dedicated a crosswalk to four Zionsville West Middle School students and their former High Achievement U.S. History teacher, who were the force behind the new crosswalk at the intersection of Whitestown Parkway and 700 East.

“What they were asking for was safety,” said Whitestown town manager Dax Norton.

Earlier this year, Tim Yovanovich, or “Mr. Yo” as he is known to his students, asked his class to come up with ideas for what he called an “active citizen project.”

Four girls, Theresa Bottorff, Kelsey Merrill, Charlize Roe, and Amelia Wilkie, decided that they wanted their project to focus on the lack of safe access-ways to their school.

“What started as a class project for these Zionsville West Middle School students is now a reality,” Norton said.

The four girls went before the Whitestown Town Council and the Zionsville Town Council to request a pedestrian bridge that would give them a chance to walk or ride to school safely.

Building a bridge proved too costly but Whitestown town leaders liked the students’ idea and perseverance so much they moved forward constructing a trail and crosswalk, noting that this would allow for students to safely ride their bikes or walk to ZWMS and Boys and Girls Club, from the neighborhoods across the street such as Royal Run. In May, funds and support had grown and the project began.

“These kids didn’t stop with just writing a paper. Their goal was to bring about change,” Yovanovich said. “Their persistence and willingness to engage the civic process has finally paid off.”

Whitestown leaders agree and said it’s a good example of what people with good ideas, no matter their age, can accomplish.

“These young girls had a great idea that fits

into the town’s goals to make this a more walkable, bikeable and accessible community for everyone and fortunately we were able to make it happen,” said Whitestown assistant town manager and urban planner Lauren Bailey.

Public works director for Whitestown Jason Lawson said that out of his five years working in

walk places but never felt like they could do it safely until now.

“I thought it was amazing that the council approved this project,” she said. “I didn’t really think anything would happen because they are just kids, and what do they know? But they knew how to do this.”

Jonathon Ralstin, who showed up to support the girls at the crosswalk’s dedication, was also in Yovanovich’s class and while his group project didn’t take off like the girls’ project, he was happy to be a part of something civic.

“We all started helping them,” he said.

Matt Doublestein, the principal of ZWMS and a Whitestown resident, said he is grateful to be a part of a community that listens to its youth.

“That’s what this is all about,” he said. “And the girls did all the legwork which is exciting.”

Norton said that Whitestown officials are now inspired to continue building crosswalks along Whitestown Parkway, including one at the Main Street intersection.

“They are definitely teaching perseverance at Zionsville West,” Norton said.

A plaque honoring the students will be installed by the crosswalk.

“What started as a class project for these Zionsville West Middle School students is now a reality,” said town manager Dax Norton.

Whitestown, this has been the best project he’s seen by far.

“Dax and I both got e-mails from the students,” he said. “And after this went out for public bid, it was really only a 90-day process until completion. It’s definitely the best project I’ve been a part of.”

Bottorff, who, along with the other three girls is gearing up for a start as a freshman in high school this year, said that she is grateful for the town’s support.

“Without their support, we couldn’t have done anything at all,” she said.

Bottorff’s mom, Trang Nguyen, said that her family lives in Royal Run and loves to bike or

The girls stand before a crowd at the crosswalk’s dedication. “These kids didn’t stop with just writing a paper. Their goal was to bring about change,” said their former eighth-grade teacher Tim Yovanovich. “Their persistence and willingness to engage the civic process has finally paid off.”

Forget back to school

FROM THE BACKSHOP Chaucie’s Place needs your help Chaucie’s Place is expanding its Smart Steps: A Body Safety Program for Children and it needs your help to reach as many students as possible. The program is a regional prevention-and-education effort that teaches elementary school-aged children that their bodies belong to them and that they have the right to say “no” to a touch to their private parts for “no good reason or just to play a game.” All volunteers will attend an orientation/training session, learn to use a script developed specially for the program and shadow experienced instructors until they are ready to present on their own. If your schedule allows, and we hope it will, you will help once a month or once a week, and you will make a positive impact on the life of a child. Orientation is noon to 1 p.m. on Aug. 26 at Chaucie’s Place, 4607 E. 106th St., Carmel. Please try to make time. For more information, call 759-8008.

••• AND WE STAND FOR THIS WHY? Well, because we’re Americans. The Daily News of London sent out this dispatch last week, just in time to get us additionally riled about useless government spending. Here goes: “Hillary Clinton left her post at the top of the U.S. State Department on Feb. 1, 2013, but the federal government spent more than $55,000 on travel expenses related to her book tour just last month, procurement documents show. The expenses included a $3,668 charge for her to enjoy a single night’s lodging in a suite at the posh Four Seasons George V hotel in Paris.” Need more? We paid $5,100 to rent three Mercedes-Benz VIP vans in Berlin, curiously billed to the Homeland Security Department’s Office of Inspector General. The State Dept. paid for nearly $50,000 of the costs even though Clinton no longer heads the cabinet agency. All this in light of her garnering well into six figures every time she gives a speech?

Clearly, it pays to be a Clinton.

BELIEVE IT! Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share one with you.

Commentary by Danielle WIlson

Police state of mind Commentary by Terry Anker Ostensibly because of the enormous U.S. investment in military gear during these past many years to support wars in the Middle East, many municipal police forces are flush with all matter of equipment designed to do many things but likely not to “serve and protect.” As the soldierly surplus is repatriated, it is deployed to awaiting communities. But, is an armored personnel carrier required gear to keep our homes and families safe?

Even as riots are winding down in other Midwestern states following claims of police brutality and zealousness, pundits and community organizers alike are calling for federal oversight of local police authority. Has the thin blue line fattened-up with age? Is it time for a diet?

Should we work to control and out-of-control government force by giving even more power to another government force?

But before we take the guns away from Officer Friendly and call in the Calvary, is the concern misplaced? Public safety officials face an unprecedented rise in amoral and even ruthless

behavior from criminals. Random individuals open fire on busy streets because some passerby dared bump them on a crowded sidewalk. And, veteran officers are murdered in cold blood when responding to a seemingly routine domestic call.

Certainly, government authority must be constrained. The founders expended buckets of ink to warn their progeny of the risks of an endlessly expanding central state. But, is a better equipped and armed police authority a necessary response to an increasingly violent and remorseless felonious element? Can there be an alternative?

As citizens do we fear an increasingly paramilitary state more than an increasingly lawless citizenry? The dichotomy is not a new one. Yet can there be a winner in the ever accelerating arms race between the good guys and bad?

Maybe it is just a state of mind.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK I am always doing that which I cannot do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

–Pablo Picasso

For the first time in seven years, I completely spaced a back-to-school article! Under ordinary circumstances, I’d have humor happily spent most of July composing a witty summer-sucks and homework-rules piece that debuts just as our little ones are boarding that beautiful yellow bus in August. But if you recall, last week’s lame column dealt with an uneventful vacation to South Carolina. What is WRONG with me?

I’ve thought a lot about possible causes for my literary amnesia and only managed one explanation: I just wasn’t ready for school to start. This is unusual, because normally I’m so irritated with “bored” kids, stupid XBOXes, sunburn prevention, and exponentially-populating fruit flies.

But after barely surviving the horrendous winter as both a teacher and a mother, I needed the summer months of 2014 to get myself pulled back together, physically and mentally. My sanity demanded a break, one devoid of carpooling and lesson planning and the general school year chaos. And my kids are older now (even my youngest can ride a bike by herself to CVS for banned soda and candy), so the usual constant demands for my time and attention weren’t so constant or demanding. In fact, I rarely saw any of my offspring for more than about four hours a day.

I felt like I’d just started to settle in to the stay-at-home mom groove (a much better gig than it was when I had toddlers periodically dumping cherry Kool-Aid down air vents) when registration and orientation information began arriving in the mail. Wait! I’m not ready! I’m assuming my mind put a mental block on the whole event, leading me to write about how hot the South is and how a splinter can ruin the day. Pardon me, I just stifled a yawn.

So I’d like to apologize to parents everywhere for not acknowledging your probablypolitically-incorrect-yet-perfectly-valid feelings of relief and guilt that summer vacay is finally over. Even though I don’t share your sentiments this year, know that I have certainly been in your shoes many times before. I firmly believe that children are not meant to be with their moms and dads for long periods of warm weather, and that school structure and routine are integral to parents staying off the booze.

Next July, please consider emailing a headsup. That should give me plenty of time to write a killer back-to-school bit for the appropriate publication date. Peace out!

Beef & Boards: Where the wind comes sweepin’ down

THIS WEEK

By Jay Harvey • editorial@youarecurrent.com

The first show in the historic collaboration of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II was also the first for an enduring theatre Indianapolis partnership.

Doug Stark and his business partner for many years, Bob Zehr, took ownership of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre in 1980 and made their mark here with “Oklahoma!”

That 1943 stage adaptation of the novel “Green Grow the Lilacs” launched the Rodgers and Hammerstein brand on Broadway and was also a milestone that established the “book musical” as a favorite American form of entertainment.

On Aug. 21, the seventh B&B production of the perpetual hit show will take the stage at the landmark showplace on Indianapolis’ northwest side.

It is being directed by Stark’s daughter, Elizabeth.

Stark, now sole proprietor, recalled in an interview how the B&B course here was set by his and Zehr’s decision to revive the show with which they had concluded three years of doing business in suburban Louisville.

“We took over the theater just after Thanksgiving,” Stark said. The previous owner, a national dinner-theater chain based in Dallas, Texas, had “1776” onstage, with “a very, very large cast” that was tiring after a 40-week engagement in the chain’s several other regional theaters.

“We replaced that show with ‘Oklahoma!,’” Stark said. “It was not the best of Christmas shows, but we had a really fun cast. We were able to mount it fairly quickly because we had done it in Simpsonville. We could concentrate on selling tickets and getting more audience in here.”

In that era, dinner theaters were a fading fad nationwide. The tendency, Stark said, was to use a “star system,” staging often “substandard shows that wouldn’t have been produced anyplace else” with a household name leading the cast.

Beef & Boards has always mounted its own productions, concentrating on musicals, and featuring stars only to the extent that some of its veterans have become stars to loyal patrons during the past 35 seasons. The operation has bucked the tendency of dinner theaters to fade in a marketplace favoring separation of food and entertainment.

What makes “Oklahoma!” a surefire hit on the B&B schedule? “First, it’s because our audience can relate to it,” starting with the man at the top: “I’m third-generation off the farm,” Stark said. “Something about that kind of story is easily relatable, even with me. I’ve seen surreys, and hawks doing lazy circles in the sky,” he added, alluding to two of the show’s hit songs.

Furthermore, “you don’t have to think a lot in ‘Oklahoma!,” and it’s got something for everyone: “You have your love interest, your funny people, your crotchety old people,” he said. “And that

Artomobilia – The art of the automobile will be on display in Carmel’s Arts & Design District, Main Street and Rangeline CARMEL Road, from noon to 5 p.m. Aug. 23. Cars from all eras line the streets and galleries exhibit art with an auto theme. Admission is free. For more information, visit www.carmelartsanddesign.com.

Marsh Symphony on the Prairie – The legendary band, The Beach Boys – led by founding member Mike Love FISHERS and Bruce Johnston – surf their way to the Conner Prairie Amphitheatre for three performances of chart-topping favorites from the group’s multi-decade career Aug. 22 through 24 at Conner Prairie, 13400 Allisonville Rd. General admission tickets are $30 for adults and $12 for children. For more information, call 6394300 or visit www.indianapolissymphony.org.

“Oklahoma!,” the very first collaboration of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, is a high-spirited rivalry between local farmers and cowboys in Western Indian territory at the turn of the century.

Performances at Beef & Boards run Aug. 21 through Oct. 5. (Submitted photo)

show was back in the day where a lot of your Top 10 popular songs came from Broadway.”

Plus, even the dark side – the threat the lovelorn cowhand Jud Fry poses to the romance of Laurey and Curly – shows some sympathy for the doomed Jud. “They’re not trying to make any huge point with it, except ‘this happened and we have to get through it’ and life can go on,” he said.

And the peppy title song is reprised at the very end, “everybody is brought back up (in mood),” Stark said. “It’s a show that continues to sell really well to our audience.”

Stark also takes pride in the working atmosphere he creates at Beef & Boards. This cast is particularly rich in newcomers to the theater, including Eric Morris as Curly and Grace Ann Field as Laurey. Others in B&B debuts are Daniel S. Hines, Brian Sutow, Mary-Elizabeth Milton, Jordan Moody, and ensemble members Leah DeWalt and Devan Mathias.

“It’s important to have newcomers and have them blend with the people who have already been here,” said Stark, mentioning Licia Watson, who will have just finished reprising her role as Vivian Snus-

tad in the “Church Basement Ladies” series.

“Once we get them involved, we hope they will be us for a long time,” he said. “We kind of try to have a very, very ‘human’ theater. It’s not like ‘You actors are here to work for us, and you can do this and you can’t do that.’ If you get them to a comfort level where they enjoy working here, you can pull that little extra 10 percent out of them onstage.”

The payoff is evident in audience response, too, Stark believes. And that positive feeling helps to ensure long-term business success.

“If someone is having a good time doing what they’re doing,” he said, “it makes you feel so much better watching the show.”

Carmel Theatre Company’s new show “Red, Like a Dinosaur’s Liver” is described as “theatre of the absurd,” yet the most absurd thing theatre about it may be that that members of the production didn’t rehearse in person until only days before the show starts.

Instead, actors, director Scott Jackoway and playwright Ben Claus opted to hold rehearsals through online video chat programs such as Skype and Google Hangouts.

“Red, Like a Dinosaur’s Liver” is the first production directed by Jackoway and written by Claus, both cut Carmel graduates. The play tells the story of a married couple: Heidi, an aspiring author searching for the next big idea, and her husband, a doctor with an affinity for old classics, leading both to conflict on what literature is meant to be. A third character, known as “The Fool” enters into their life, only to throw things into chaos.

“We’ve been talking a lot about what the show is at its core,” Jackoway said. “People being stuck in a rut and wanting to get out. Can you get out? What do you need to get yourself unstuck? We’re hoping people walk away thinking about that.”

Claus and Jackoway became best friends through a Clay Middle School production of “Fiddler on the Roof.” Claus now studies Playwriting at Depaul University in Illinois while Jackoway studies Theatre at New York University.

Much like their distance while studying in differ-

ent states, the distance between production members called for unique solutions. Having previously rehearsed with cast and production members through Google Hangouts, both Claus and Jackoway say the show has evolved dramatically since arriving in Carmel.

“It can be hard to read the energy in the room,” Claus said, referring to online rehearsals. “It kind of added to the distance between the characters.

We’re trying to play with the space now. I think the play has become more about each other now that it’s in person.”

June Clair, a retired Carmel Clay educator is assisting both men in the overall production of the show.

Parents need activities, too Commentary by Kathleen Connelly

As the summer is winding down my family is getting organized for the fall and for us that means signing Fitness the kids up for fall activities. Our rule of thumb usually is each kid can participate in one physical activity/team sport at a time. We are breaking this rule slightly this fall but for the most part follow it to a tee. This helps us keep our sanity and allows us to spend time at home with family and friends.

For the fall, my son and 6-year-old daughter are playing soccer through S.P.O.R.T.S and my 3-year-old daughter is participating in a dance class at Wishes Dance Studio in Fishers. Here’s where I broke my own rule: My son is also playing fall baseball through S.P.O.R.T.S. As I organized all of this and put everything on the calendar, I had a thought: What about my husband and me?

As parents, we want to give the world to our kids. We want to let them try new things and enjoy different activities.

Why don’t we want the same things for ourselves? I see clients all the time who put everything and everyone else before themselves. Even though we are parents, we need to recognize the importance of

staying active, participating in activities we enjoy and yes, even in our 30s, 40s, 50s and older, trying new things. I believe it is a way to teach our kids that their health, their interests and staying active is important at any age or in any circumstance. Your kids will see you being active, see you trying new things or making what you enjoy a priority and they will learn from it. Aren’t these important lessons we want to teach our kids?

Next time you think about signing you kids up for something, decide what “your activity” will be. Find out if the organization that your kids play through has adult sports leagues. Maybe the studio your child dances at has adult classes or you and your son/daughter can try a new activity together. My husband has not decided on his “fall activity” but I am going to follow my own advice and sign up for a yoga class through the Fishers YMCA. My challenge to you is to find an activity that can fit into your family schedule and sign up today!

When to exercise – Exercising earlier in the morning can jump start your metabolism and burn fat for the rest of the day. Workouts release endorphins that increase energy levels and improve your mood for daily tasks.

By completing your workout in the morning you can check it off your to-do list and focus on the day ahead. – WomensHealth. com

Rid your diet of processed foods – Replacing highly processed foods with a diet rich in essential fatty acids found in salmon, organic oils and walnuts can help clear skin and prevent the triggering of rosacea, eczema and common rashes. – Prevention.com

So you want to ‘go it alone?’

Commentary by Adam Cmejla I firmly believe that everybody needs to have a relationship with a competent, trustworthy and reliable advisor, and I believe finance that need only increases as your wealth, situation, and age increase. Obviously I’m a bit biased, but I believe I’ve come up with a great story and analogy that illustrates this well.

I tend to try and relate complicated financial topics and situations into realities that I and others can comprehend. Being an aviation enthusiast, I’ve used flying and being a pilot in many situations, and I feel this may help connect the dots on the value, role, and responsibilities of an advisor.

You want three things when you fly. At the core of air travel, everybody desires and wants to experience three main things: you want to take off and land safely, you want to get where you’re going, and you want to get there on time. That’s what we are paying the airline (and the pilot and crew) to do for us. That’s also what you want your investments and financial plan to do. You want to get to the proper destination (retirement, college education, etc.) and you want to get there on time and safely. The various investments and vehicles that you use are the airplane and we as advisors are your pilot.

I didn’t build the airplane. There are two obstacles that every honest, hard-working, and trustworthy advisor will face. The first is that we

did not build the airplane. XYZ Investment Fund or ABC ETF built the airplane (investment). So en route, if we encounter some mechanical difficulties or repairs that need to be done, it wasn’t because of me. I didn’t cut the dividend of an investment, I didn’t cause a temporary fall in account value. I am simply the pilot; they built it.

I’m not paid to predict the weather. I’m paid to react to the weather. I know there will be rough patches ahead, but I’d be lying to you if I knew exactly when and where they would be.

If I did know, I wouldn’t be writing this article.

Based on of a map, I may have a sense of where it might be, but we’re not going to know until we experience it. So there may be times when you’re looking out the window and everything is clear and it’s smooth cruising. There may be times when I tell you to fasten your seatbelts because we’re encountering some rough weather. But when the journey is over, I’ll get you to where you need to be (retirement, etc.), safely and on time. That’s my responsibility and duty, and I understand the magnitude of that task.

What are the top two tech stocks to buy this year? Investor Place offers two suggestions: • Apple (AAPL) remains one of the very best tech stocks to own. Consumers love Apple’s products – Apple doesn’t have customers so much as devotees. Analysts continually underestimate this company; Apple has had small positive earnings surprises for the past four quarters in a row.

• Texas Instruments (TXN) is another wellpositioned tech stock. The semiconductor giant has delivered a positive earnings surprise in three of the past four quarters, and TXN analysts have increased their expectations sharply in the last three months. Management at Texas Instruments has been very shareholder-friendly; the company uses a big portion of its cash flow to buy back stock and pay dividends.

After touring the Hagia Sophia, many visitors assume they have seen the best Byzantine art in Istanbul. They have not. What may travel be the most impressive collection of medieval mosaics and frescoes in the world is displayed in the “Chora Church” in western Istanbul.

The “Church of Christ the Savior in Chora” derives its name from a fourth-century monastery in the same location, which was outside the walls of Constantinople and therefore in “chora,” Greek for “the countryside.” Byzantine Emperor Justinian built a church on the site in the sixth century, apparently because it was near his summer palace. After additions and improvements, the building became associated with the Greek Orthodox Church after its split from the Roman Catholic Church in the Great Schism of 1054. The church attained most of its current configuration in about 1081.

In 1204, Catholic participants in the Fourth Crusade sacked Constantinople and significantly damaged the church. After Orthodox forces recaptured Constantinople in 1261, Theodore Metochites, a wealthy statesman and patron of the arts, restored the church and covered its interior with dozens of colorful mosaics and

frescoes depicting the life and death of Jesus, Biblical stories and characters and scenes important to the church. The renderings are more intricate than typical art of the period. One colorful mosaic shows Metochites handing the church to Jesus. A complex gold-leaf mosaic depicts the bodily assumption of Mary into heaven. The most famous of the frescoes, labeled “anastasis” (resurrection), is on a dome near the burial chapel. Frequently emulated, it shows the returned Jesus giving a hand to Adam and Eve as they arise bodily from their graves, with other Biblical figures watching nearby.

In 1453, the Ottoman Turks conquered Constantinople, renamed it Istanbul and turned the Chora Church into a mosque, complete with a minaret. Because Islam forbids “graven images,” they covered the mosaics and frescoes with plaster, inadvertently preserving them. Beginning in 1948, the Turkish government uncovered and restored the images and reopened the church in 1958 as a museum. Try not to overlook the splendors of the Chora Church.

Open-air porch with fireplace Commentary by Larry Greene

ORIGINAL DECK/PATIO: This home, located in the Village of West Clay in Carmel, was built in 2005. Although the origiblueprint for nal brick surround patio improvement was beautiful, it was practically unusable due to intense evening sun. “We host Sunday family dinners every week for our family and we grew tired of having a patio that we could never entertain on. We decided to add on a large outdoor room so we could finally enjoy the outdoors without being subjected to the heat.”

EXTERIOR FINISH: Tying in with the existing gable and rooflines, the new porch was framed over the extended aggregate patio. A cathedral ceiling, custom made screened doors and gable windows were included. The elevated cathedral ceiling gives a grand appearance, but also retains the view to the backyard from the front entry. The exterior was finished with cedar siding and trim and was painted to match the existing paint color.

FIREPLACE DETAILS: The fireplace was one of

the major focal points. The fireplace was constructed using stone veneer in an “Autumn Sunburst Ashlar” color and angled with a straight sightline into the kitchen. The interior fireplace wall included a 6-inch recess that was perfectly sized for their new TV. To give a dual-sided look, two fireboxes with separate flues were installed on the interior and exterior, which prevents insects from crawling inside. A limestone hearth was installed to complete the final look of the fireplace.

INTERIOR DETAILS: After the windows and screened door were installed, new casings were installed to match the family room. Motorized retractable screens were also installed to give the homeowners the desired open-air concept. A double fan with woven bamboo blades was installed along with coordinating wall sconces and carriage lights in an oil-rubbed bronze finish.
