Plain talk

The summer I gave up on Commentary by Ward Degler

For the first time in my life I am happy to see summer come to an end. By nature, I am a creature of the tropics. I love blue skies and sunshine, the sound of coconuts falling from the trees. I pile on the sweaters when the mercury drops below 75.

This has been a summer of promise … and little else. I stopped watering my flowerbed around July first. The zinnias and cosmos that had been struggling withered and died. The marigolds never even tried.

Even though I watered twice a day, half the vegetable garden was gone before Independence Day. The green beans held on for a couple more weeks. Then an army of tiny beetles marched in and ate them down to skeletal remains in less than 48 hours.

The few tomatoes that managed to emerge looked like geodes. I was tempted to crack one open and look for fossils. So far none have been edible. Ditto the peppers. A couple of tentative squash plants poked their heads out and sat

stunned in the heat.

The thermometer hit 107 and my lawn became a dust bowl reminiscent of Oklahoma farmland in the ‘30s. My lawnmower sat idle for two months. Perennials disappeared, shrubs died, mature trees turned brown. The entire landscape will have changed by next year.

The air conditioner labored nonstop for weeks on end. Being outside was like a visit to the Sahara. I swear I saw a camel caravan plodding down the road. The heat shimmered like broken glass.

Then it rained. Too little, too late, of course.

But I’ve mowed the lawn twice in the past week.

And it needs it again.

And that flowerbed I gave up on. Zinnias are coming up. They may even bloom before frost.

And, oh yeah, the grass seed I spread last spring.

It’s sprouting.

The 2011 Jog-A-Thon

SHEPHERD

Kids helping schools with second annual Jog-A-Thon

By Julie Osborne • julie@youarecurrent.com Zionsville Elementary Schools are teaming up for their main fall fundraiser, Wednesday, but the kids are doing most of the work.

According to Eagle Elementary Co-Chair, Martine Ouellette, “The kids are raising the money and have an active hand in the event, not only in fundraising but in participating in the run or walk. It’s an activity that promotes health. We call it a ‘healthy fundraiser.’”

Students will be involved with seeking sponsors for the walk or run, and all funds raised will remain at each of their own elementary schools: Stonegate, Eagle, Pleasant View and Union. The Jog-A-Thon will be held at each of the participating schools with two race times during the day, determined by each school’s schedule.

The event was first launched at Eagle Elemen-

tary in 2010 and was a huge success, resulting in its expansion in 2011 to all four schools.

“It’s all four schools together which makes it a community-building event that affects approximately 2,200 elementary students,” said Ouellette.

It is not only a community-building event, but a fundraising powerhouse. Last year, Eagle Elementary School alone raised more than $20,000 and approximately $90,000 in total for all four schools. The money raised will be funneled through the four Parent Teacher Organizations, and in the past has been used for teacher grants and enrichment activities determined by the unique needs of each school.

Community sponsors will provide T-shirts free of charge to the participants and cover costs for the event so all money raised by the students will go directly back to their own school. For more information, contact Martine Ouellette at 755-8866.

ZCS registrations are ongoing – Zionsville Community Schools is currently taking registrations for Eagle Recreation and Enrichment programs. Programs are being offered for aquatics, third- and fourth-grade orchestra, elementary Spanish and French, golf and tennis programs, Tae Kwon Do, arts enrichment including KidzArt, Clayworks Pottery, Artist Colony and Adventures in Art, middle school photography and elementary and middle school chess and Run Club at Union Elementary.

Many of the programs are open to students of any elementary school; however, transportation is not included. To access registration, go to http://cms.zcs.k12.in.us and click on the Eagle Rec Programs tab.

VIEWS

Opinion Arts festival worthy of your attention

The flight of a lifetime It is our position that the nonprofit Indy Honor Flight is providing an admirable service through its mission of transporting elderly and terminally-ill Hoosier veterans to visit memorials in Washington, D.C. dedicated to honor their sacrifices.

In the inaugural flight on Sept. 10, 80 World War II veterans along with volunteers consisting of guardians, trip leaders and healthcare professionals took a day trip to see the WWII War Memorial for the first time.

They were honored with a proper “welcome home” on their return by a crowd of well-wishers with American flags, banners and signs at the Indiana National Guard that also included a mail call in which each veteran received several letters and cards thanking them for their service.

In the words of the late Will Rogers, “We can’t all be heroes, some of us need to stand on the curb and clap as they go by.” And, thanks to the volunteers of Indy Honor Flight, Hoosier veterans of our Greatest Generation are finally receiving the welldeserved recognition for fighting to preserve our freedoms.

The total cost of an honor flight is around $65,000. Donations are needed for a second honor flight. To donate, visit IndyHonorFlight.org.

Taxing consideration

Commentary by Terry Anker

For as long as there have been politicians when an election looms, candidates name-call, prevaricate and foment envy, jealously and outright hatred. In an America where only half of us pay taxes, the conflict over money is like Clark Griswold’s Thanksgiving Day argument with his perpetually unemployed brother-in-law – “give me money, you have too much.” We still determine one’s worth by paycheck – but now when one’s earnings exceed average they are judged as BAD. Isn’t this the same as criticizing Michael Jordan for scoring more points than the rest of the league?

Like most things, it is a matter of perspective. If one benefits from government handouts, those programs make sense. If one pays for them, value becomes the top priority. We rarely mind when someone else is being taxed; so it would seem that the trick is to only tax those who don’t vote for our side? Rich or poor, no one likes to pay. Long ago, Adam

Smith pointed to the truth that we care more about smashing our own fingers than the deaths of a million in China.

Like most, I struggle to escape my own point of view. Our kids are well-fed and sheltered. But when they seek an increase in allowance, we don’t claim a lack of affordability, tell them that we don’t love them enough, allege their needs to be without merit, or wish they’d move out and die in a ditch. Instead, we wonder should our focus be on paying for education and security or benefits? Does our generosity add advantage or cause harm. And, can they learn to spend less, earn more, and be accountable for choices? They don’t like the oversight. But when folks not paying tax, push others to pay more, doesn’t it necessarily lead to tension? Shouldn’t it?

With festival season in full swing in our area and as a proud sponsor, allow us to commend to your attention the Carmel International Arts Festival, Saturday and Sunday, on Main Street and Range Line Road in the heart of the city. If you haven’t been, or if you did attend in years past and tired of visiting booths for sand art and finger-painting, we urge you to give it another try, because those days are fourth down and long gone. Not only has the organizing committee, under the direction of Rosemary Waters, secured a host of truly outstanding and varied artisans, and special attention has been paid to creating a tremendously diverse lineup of entertainment for two stages. The artistes come from parts local, national and international, and, as much as you always hear that “there will be something for everyone,” it very much will be the case this weekend.

••• George Will of ABC News beat us to the punch, one of the vicissitudes of running a weekly newspaper operation. “If the Republican party cannot win in this environment, it has to get out of politics and find another business,” he said. Bingo! We’ve been talking exactly about that. We also believe that America doesn’t know the depth and breadth of Mitt Romney’s policy platforms, because he hasn’t really revealed them in full, at least not to our way of thinking. Meanwhile, President Barack Obama and his team are laughing their tails off. We believe the Republicans are looking to get a huge surge from the upcoming debates. It could be too little too late. We shall see.

Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share one with you. The land of 10,000 lakes declares mosquitos a public nuisance.

Plain talk

Wandering through Zionsville Commentary by Julie Osborne During my first week as a general assignment reporter for Zionsville, I wandered around town and met many welcoming residents and merchants.

This town is packed with charm, tradition, and so many quaint, cute shops. Where should I stop first? The Zionsville Fall Festival, of course!

This amazing three-day event held the week after Labor Day each year brings an excitement and buzz which showcases what community is all about, a concept rare in our busy, fast-paced world.

The rain on Friday night did not dampen spirits nor halt activities, it only highlighted the incredible dedication of adult and student Lions Club volunteers who ran around ensuring the more than 100 VIP children with special needs had a great time, even running food and drinks to their cars in the rain.

Festivities continued on Saturday and Sunday with the town parade, carnival rides, inflatables, a new Luau, an outdoor worship service, car show and pageant. Whew! What a weekend! I am exhausted but Grand Marshall Leigh Ann Akard, my new hero, is the one who really needs a break along with the volunteers working the 260 festival shifts. What an accomplishment!

So, what’s going on next weekend?

A few other things I learned as I wandered around Z-ville...

Lesley Jane has cool, hip clothes at good prices. First paycheck spent!

There is something going on at the Zionsville Christian Church on Tuesday night and it’s NOT the City Council meeting, trust me.

Council meetings are run very efficiently.

Each meeting begins with the Pledge of Alligiance and the “Under God” was not omitted (which is probably a good thing since the meeting is in an old church).

This is a fantastic, friendly, little town. Where have I been all these years?

I can’t wait to see what I discover next week.

Opinion I’ve had it up to here with politics VIEWS

Commentary by Danielle Wilson I am sick of politics! My relaxing Labor Day weekend was almost ruined by political talk and left me wondering whether I’ll survive the craziness long enough to actually vote in the November election.

Saturday morning started off well enough. I sat on the couch for three consecutive hours eating cheese and obsessing over a grant proposal I’m writing – until my Republican husband returned from his Republican brother’s house all riled up and ready to argue. But I’m a Democrat and, more to the point, I hate discussing politics, particularly with a Wilson. They don’t listen very well, and seem to relish the fight, especially when they can gang up on the one liberal in the entire family, little ol' me.

Bottom line: I avoid political discussions with in-laws when I can.

Doo knows this about me, but couldn’t help himself. He pushed just the right buttons to draw me in to a debate. Before I realized what was happening, he was up in my grille about social welfare, education and defense spending, and I was yelling about his inability to acknowledge my right to a different opinion. By the end of our “chat” we were both emotionally spent, though I was proud that I had finally seen a political discussion with Doo through to the end (usually I run off crying when it gets

too heated). As it turns out, I can make a pretty good case for my party affiliation if I’m just given the chance. Go me!

We had yet to recover when his Republican sister stopped by a bit later, so we steered the conversation towards my grant and enjoyed a solid hour of sampling apolitical gouda while Google-ing Cairo hotels. But then Doo’s parents decided to come over, fresh off the “2016” movie boat, and my day went to hell in a conservative handbag. I was forced to endure a lecture on the “unknown history” of Obama and, once again, get sucked into a political discussion. Enough!

I. Don’t. Like. Talking. About. Politics.

Never have, never will. It goes against my nonconfrontational nature and never seems to accomplish anything but raising everyone’s blood pressures. I understand we’re in the midst of a presidential election year and that the nation has seen better days, but does that mean that politics have to consume us? Must we spend every waking moment debating candidates and their platforms? There’s more to life than politics, people, like spending holiday weekends enjoying Romney-free cheddar. Peace out.

Wind Kissed

Local artist April Willy reflects on the Carmel International Arts Festival

By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com For the last 15 years, the focal point of the Carmel International Arts Festival has been placed undeniably on the art and, beyond that, the art competition. Last year’s Best in Show winner April Willy, a painter and Carmel native, has been a long time participant in the festival. “(Winning Best in Show) was a great honor and achievement, especially considering the level of talent on display,” said Willy. “I never expect to win, but it is the icing on the cake after already getting such great exposure and good sales at the festival.”

The judge of this year’s art competition will be Evan Lurie, gallery directory of Carmel’s Lurie Gallery. Having lived in New York and traveled extensively across Europe, Lurie has developed a wide network of artists from around the world while establishing one of Carmel’s most highly respected art galleries.

Like most of the artists participating in the festival, Willy is truly a professional artist with her own full-time gallery in the Indiana Design Center.

14 | September 18, 2012

Willy “I have been painting professionally since attending art school in the ’80s, but made my living mostly through commercial illustration.

I made the transition to working as a fine art painter around 10 years ago. I work full time doing commissions, showing in galleries and participating in regional shows,” said Willy.

After years of attending all of the notable art festivals in the region, Willy decided to participate exclusively in the Carmel International Arts Festival.

“I am genuinely loyal to Carmel, not just because it is my home town, but because of the overall quality of the event’s organization, pro-

Nesting

motion, volunteers and talent,” said Willy.

With the festival set in the center of the Carmel Art & Design district, an area filled with art galleries and designed for foot traffic, it is not surprising that the festival has gotten progressively larger as the years have gone on.

“The festival truly gets better every year, which is a direct result of the great promotion the city of Carmel has given to the Arts & Design District,” said Willy. “(The festival organizers) realized, a few years ago, the need to restrain the amount of artists they were jurying in the competition in order to keep the quality of art at a peak level,” said Willy.

A number of Willy’s favorite artists such as Beth Forst, Randall Harden, Julie Houck, Carol Bell, Lee Ellis and Chang Kwa Brown will also be participating in this year’s competition.

For more information regarding Willy and her art gallery, visit her Web site at aprilwilly. com.

The Carmel International Arts Festival will be held at Main Street and Range Line Road in the heart of Carmel’s Arts & Design District this Saturday (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and Sunday (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.). Admission is free. For more information, visit carmelartsfestival.org.

‘A Chorus Line’ gets a standing ovation

By Kerrie Miller • editorial@youarecurrent.com When I attend a live performance of any kind, I usually sit straight up in my seat so as to take it all in. On Saturday evening, while I was at the Tarkington Civic Theatre, I found myself sitting forward in my seat, chin in my hands and a permanent smile on my face as I was pulled into an incredible production of “A Chorus Line.” I felt as though I was the director’s assistant, judging the 17 dancers on stage and listening to their individual stories as each person stepped out of the line up for their monologue, often spoken through song. With only a black back drop and the occasional use of mirrors, there were no distractions, enabling the audience to focus on each of the characters.

I very much enjoyed the ballet variations that accompanied the song “At the Ballet.” Natallee Cooney (Judy) executed a beautiful penchee with her partner as Laura Lockwood (Sheila), Betsy Norton (Bebe) and Julia Bonnett (Maggie) sang the song. Laughter filled the audience when Jordan Lugar (Kristine) and John O’Brien (Al) performed the husband and wife duet “Sing!” O’Brien’s strong voice, along with Lugar’s innocent execution of her character’s story, made me want their performance to continue for as long as possible. Anne Nicole Beck (Cassie) breezed through her dance to “The Music and the Mirror” effortlessly to the very end as she finished with a striking pose.

'A Chorus Line' runs through Saturday Submitted photo

The golden finale of “One” was a reminder that this energetic, two-hour performance was coming to an end. The singing and dancing from all of the characters was as strong at the end as it was in the beginning. As the curtain closed on the synchronized kick line, I watched the audience begin to stand and applaud, anxiously awaiting a curtain call. The lights in the Tarkington Theatre came on and the curtain remained down. Oh how I wished that curtain would lift so the performers could see the standing ovation, because each and every one of them deserved this.

“A Chorus Line” runs through September 22 at The Tarkington Theater (3 Center Green, Carmel). Performances are Thursday and Friday at 7 p.m. and Saturday at 5 p.m. Tickets are available online at thecenterfortheperformingarts.org or by phone at 843-3800.

Car seat fitting – On Saturday, September 22 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the Boone County Sheriff's Office and the Boone County Traffic Safety partnership will be sponsoring a free car seat clinic at the Boone County Sheriff's Office. Our technicians will check your existing car seats for proper placement and installation. The Boone County Sheriff's Office will also have some free car seats available for qualifying persons. According to Safe Kids, 85 percent of all car seats are installed incorrectly.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states, a properly installed car seat can reduce a child's risk of injury in a motor vehicle collision by up to 70 percent. For more information, call 765-482-1412.

Thirsty – It has been said many times that people need eight glasses of water a day, but there is actually no research stating that this is necessary.

It is recommended that men consume about 125 ounces of water a day, and about 91 for women, but that includes intake from foods and other beverages. Drinking simply for the sake of hydrating is only necessary if you have been exposed to heat stress or have performed vigorous physical activity.

Pass on the salt – Dark circles under the eyes are typically telltale signs of too many late nights, but if you still suffer from them and are getting enough rest, look to your diet.

Eating too much salt can promote water retention throughout the body, and the sensitive under-eye area is no exception. - www.health.com

Now Open

Now open: Village Mattress

By Julie Osborne • julie@youarecurrent.com Village Mattress has opened its doors in Zionsville at 1231 W. Oak St. For years, owner Chris Plopper passed the closed building – formerly the site of Movie Gallery – with the same thought simmering on his mind.

“The mattress industry is underserved in the area,” he said.

“If I don’t do it, someone else will.” Plopper investigated the Plopper process in February, and Village Mattress was born Aug. 27.

As a resident of Zionsville, Plopper is excited to have as a locally owned and operated company, which fits in well with village values. He brings with him 12 years of experience in the furniture and mattress industry and a simple customer-oriented message.

“My goal is to help anyone who walks in the store get a better night’s sleep,” he said.

Plopper accomplishes this goal through a variety of product lines and price points from Tempur-Pedic, Sealy, Serta, Stearns & Foster, Pure Latex Bliss, to a more economical brand, Southerland.

Rest is critical to productivity and often prevented because of sleep issues.

“People come in generally because of discomfort,” said Plopper. “Sleep impacts our whole existence – our energy, our memories, our attitudes. I’m here to help them.”

Grammar Guy

Ten items or fewer

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

Question: I really enjoyed your article about the differences between “effect” and “affect.”

I wonder if sometime you could also write an article about the usages of “few” and “less.” No one seems to know there are situations where one should use “few.” Even news anchors botch this usage. – Rita Fugit, Carmel Answer: Fewer people do seem to be using the word “few” these days. Luckily, I had a high school English teacher who was a stickler for the rule, so I have an answer for you.

As in my first sentence above, “few” or “fewer” should be used when describing plural nouns that are discretely quantifiable. These are also called count nouns, which, to put it simply, means you can easily count them. A simple test is to put a number in front of the noun you are looking to modify. If you can say “seven people,” “or 25 people” or “1 million people,” and the phrase makes sense, then you have a count noun and should use “fewer.”

“Less” comes into play for mass nouns – which, if you read a lot of Slylock Fox like I did when I was young, you may have already deduced are nouns that are not easily countable.

These are going to be more abstract subjects:

crime, pollution, beauty, etc. So, there may be less crime today than in past decades, but there are fewer criminals.

There are quirks to the rule, of course. Some nouns – I don’t have a list for you, sorry – have both a mass and count form. Take a word like “fear.” If you go sky diving to conquer a fear of heights, you might have one fewer fear than you did before. If you turned on a flashlight in a dark room, however, you would be less fearful. In the first example, “fear” serves as a count noun because it is specific and quantifiable – the fear of heights, closed spaces, broccoli, whatever.

In the second example, “fear” is a mass noun because it is used more abstractly. You can have seven distinct fears, but you don’t feel seven distinct fears – you just feel fear.

One final item of note before I let you go: Throw out the last 350 or so words when it comes to time, distance and money. We use “less” for these. You have less than $50. You run a mile in less than 10 minutes. Et cetera.

Better Options. Healthier Legs.

Travel

Rock center in Jerusalem Commentary by Don Knebel

For some, the Dome of the Rock is just an image from a travel poster, identifying Jerusalem in the way the Eifel Tower identifies Paris. But to billions of people, the famous golden dome, perched atop a blue porcelain base, is much more than a landmark – it shields a rock with enormous spiritual power.

The Dome of the Rock sits near the center of the Temple Mount. Built by Herod the Great in 19 B.C. Most scholars agree that the Jewish Second Temple once stood on this platform.

But when Islamic armies captured Jerusalem from the Byzantines in 634 A.D., the Second Temple was long gone, having been destroyed by the Romans in 70 A.D. The new rulers of Jerusalem decided that the area surrounding an outcropping of rock on the flat surface of the Temple Mount would be the perfect spot for an imposing building announcing that Islam had arrived in the holy city toward which Muhammad and his followers had originally prayed. The Dome of the Rock, completed in 691 A.D., duplicated to within a few inches the dimensions of the blue-grey dome covering the tomb of Jesus on the nearby Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

Most Muslims today associate the rock beneath the dome with a magical night ride they believe Muhammad made to Jerusalem in 621

The Dome of the Rock. (Photo by Don Knebel)

A.D., from which he traveled to heaven and spoke with Abraham, Moses and Jesus. But many Jews and Christians believe the dome covers the rock around which King Solomon, following God’s instructions, built the First Temple. So for those who dream of a Third Temple exactly where they believe God said it should be, the Dome of the Rock is not a holy memorial, but an unwelcome obstacle. Ironically, Jerusalem’s beautiful golden dome covers a rock at the very center of religious contention.

INSIDE & OUT

Outdoors

Transforming your backyard into a private escape Commentary by Larry Greene ORIGINAL BACK YARD: This home is located in the Bridlebourne subdivision on the west side of Carmel and was built in 1996. The current owners have lived in it since Sept 2009 and were not happy with the simple deck and the underutilized back yard space. “The backyard had no character and the space was wide open. Also, we have quite a lot of storage under the deck but it was not very accessible. We wanted a second set of stairs so we could use that space better.”

REASONS FOR UPGRADING DECK: The owners had already remodeled most of the interior.

“After completing the interior, we felt we should have an equally upgraded exterior as well. The layout was dated, and we wanted it to flow with the style of the inside of the house. Also, we wanted a hot tub, and we knew we would have to remodel the deck to accommodate it.”

DECK RAILING DETAILS: The expanded deck was completely reframed to include more seating and space for the new hot tub. The existing deck boards were replaced with Trex Transcend deck boards with hidden fasteners. The new railing is Trex handrail with powder coated aluminum belly balusters.

STAMPED CONCRETE SEATING AREA: The lower patio area includes a stamped concrete

patio seating area surrounded by concrete paver seating walls and planter boxes. The new outdoor fireplace includes a 36-inch wide firebox and twin wood storage fireboxes covered with matching brick veneer and limestone caps and accents.

FAVORITE FEATURES: “We spend a lot of time on the deck and love using the hot tub. We will use the lower patio and fireplace level more in the fall. My wife loves her tiered, raised gar-

den beds. She has had fun planting and harvesting this year. It has been a while since she had a garden, and there is nothing like homegrown vegetables.”
