HSE School Board approves 1:1 iPad rollout for K-4 students

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com All Hamilton Southeastern elementary school students will begin using iPads as a learning tool at a 1:1 ratio next school education year after the school board unanimously approved the rollout plan and recommendations presented by Supt. Dr. Allen Bourff and Assistant Supt. Dr. Jan Combs at the board’s March 23 meeting. The meeting was relocated from the Administration Center next door to a bigger space at Fishers Junior High to accommodate the large crowd of parents and teachers with a vested interest in and opinions on the matter. Sixteen members of the public spoke on the issue, with a majority supporting the use of iPads at the elementary level while some expressed concerns on the logistics of the rollout, the amount of time students will spend in front of screens and the level of responsibility children need to care for an expensive tablet device. Bourff and Combs delivered a presentation to the board addressing many of the concerns they had heard from parents while developing the elementary iPad rollout and its place in the district’s overall HSE21 education plan. The rental fee for an iPad for a student whose family doesn’t already have one they can use will be $90 per year — down from the current $125 fee for students at the intermediate and high school level. That rental fee will include insurance, a case and charger for the iPad, and parents can choose a monthly payment option for as much as $10 per month. When the school board sees recommendations for next year’s textbook and general fees in May or June, Bourff said his staff will be recommending fees nearly $90 less than this year’s. Elementary students will not be permitted to use their iPads during lunch, recess or on busses should they be taking their device back and forth between school and home. Students in

grades K-2 will leave their iPads at school unless parents opt into letting the devices come home. Screen time will be limited in the classroom, too, as the devices are not intended to replace students’ traditional pencil and paper school work and will be used on and off throughout the day. “The emphasis on those devices would be on creation or production, not consumption and not gaming,” Bourff said. “This is not a real departure from where we've been to this point (with pilot classrooms), but I want to emphasize that these devices are to be used as instructional tools, not as gaming devices or just communication devices. “There will be days we use the iPads more than others, particularly when the students are producing movies, let's say,” he added. “But we're not looking at any option that would strain their eyes or produce some of the dangers of excessive screen time. If parents don't want those screens at home, we don't want them at home either.” Teachers will be receiving continued professional development on using the iPads with their classes, information on apps used by teachers will be passed onto parents and advisory councils will be formed of teachers, parents, administrators and school board members to provide feedback and insight on their use. “I've seen what a powerful tool they can be in the hands of each student,” board member and former teacher of 14 years Michelle Fullhart said. “During my two years I used them with my second graders, I saw the tremendous impact on how my students learned, how much they learned and how I could monitor their progress. “Those two years were, I would say, the most tremendous growth years for me as a teacher. Everyday I came home knowing something new,” she added. “I'm so excited for all K-4 teachers to feel that same way.”

Fishers parks get facelift from recycled Christmas trees By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Each spring, Fishers’ Billericay Park and Heritage Park benefit from one last gift left over from the holiday season. New mulch put in at the outdoors pair of parks comes from recycled Christmas trees the city collected throughout January. Drop-off sites at Brooks School Park, Cumberland Park and Roy G. Holland Memorial Park received nearly 3,000 trees. “We collect the trees, and we chip them up and turn them into mulch for our parks,” Fishers Parks & Recreation Director Tony Elliott said. “Last year we chipped up almost 3,000 trees, and that created about 500 yards of mulch, which is about 50 dump truck loads of mulch. We use that mulch in Billericay Park and Heritage Park. It’s a good way for us to recycle the trees, turn them into mulch and save cost by using that mulch in a couple of our parks.” Sambol’s Tree Farm in Fortville has partnered with the city to sponsor the program, which saves Fishes thousands of dollars each

year. “The savings for the City of Fishers is approximately an annual savings of about $9,000,” Elliott said. “If you’re looking at the retail price for mulch, that savings would be about $12,000 to $14,000. “The goal you hear the mayor talking about a lot is for Fishers to be a smart, vibrant and entrepreneurial community, and I think the tree recycling thing is definitely a way for us to be smart about how we essentially utilize waste and use it for our benefit,” he added.

Group honored for 25 years with fire department By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Fishers Fire Dept. Chief Steve Orusa spoke at the Fishers City Council’s March meeting to recognize the continued service of four longtime members of the department. milestone Steve White, Gregg Scheele, Jim Alderman and

Mark Elder have been with the Fishers Fire Dept. for 25 years. They were the department’s first class of paid recruits. “These four individuals represent more than 100 years of leadership on the fire department and at all levels — firefighter, division chief, battalion chief — and we’re very grateful for their service,” Orusa said.

Mark Elder

Gregg Scheele

“He plans everything for the fire department from the budget to the deployment of teams. He also handles a lot of our administrative duties and personnel records,” Orusa said. “Mark is a resident of Fishers, he’s a Mason, a Shriner and Rotarian. He gets the credit for modernizing our emergency management administration offices in Fishers and modernizing our budget.”

“Gregg is a resident of Fishers, he is a boat operator, a dive rescue specialist, a flash rescue technician and an engineer, which means he gets to drive the big red fire trucks,” Orusa said. “He has three kids with one grandchild, and two are serving in the United States Marine Corps.”

Jim Alderman

Steve White

“Jim is a division chief, and he’s also our logistics chief. He manages everything from Band-aids to fuel to fire trucks,” Orusa said. “He’s smarter than our average firefighter, too, because he’s also our IT specialist. So when the fire chief doesn’t know how to use his computer or his phone, Jim is always there to help — that’s why his office is next to mine.”

White currently serves as one of the department’s three battalion chiefs. “He’s also the fire chief of Jackson Township Fire Dept., and he’s an active instructor for Fire Engineering Magazine,” Orusa said. “He’s a resident of Fishers, member of the Holy Spirit of Geist Church, and he has two daughters serving in the military.”

ESCAPE from cluttered cabinets Commentary by Sarah Nurmi

Welcome to our team of highly skilled physicians. Brittany Mohrman, MD Internal Medicine & Pediatrics

Dr. Mohrman is an internal medicine and pediatrics physician specializing in routine and preventive care, chronic disease management and care coordination with specialists. She chose to practice primary care, as she enjoys forming a relationship with her patients to provide the highest quality of health and well-being.

“There is a set of cabinets in my kitchen that becomes a catch-all. I don’t even know what’s in there Ask an Organizer half the time! Any ideas on how to keep this from happening?” Ah, the quintessential “drop spot.” It’s the area in your home where things get placed — and sometimes shoved — with the intention of getting to it later. As many of us can relate, intentions only get us so far. I’ll walk you through a system that can be used to organize any space in your home. ESCAPE is an acronym I came up with because that’s exactly what I want to do when my house is disorganized! E is for Empty. Take everything (yes, everything!) out of your cabinets. S is for Sort. Sort the items by creating a “keep,” “toss,” and “donate” pile or box. C is for categorize. Take what’s in your “keep” pile and group like items together. A is for Assess. Assess how you will use the space. Only store things that will be used within close proximity to the space.

A home’s “drop spot” can be organized with a little work. (Submitted photo)

P is for Purchase and Put Back. Now that you know how the space will be used, determine if containers would be helpful in maintaining order. Creating labels for containers identifies their contents and it deters you from dumping anything that doesn’t belong. Store less frequently used items up high, and those used most often within arms reach. Finally, E is for Enjoy! Step back and admire your hard work. Opening those cabinets will be like a breath of fresh air. Happy organizing, friends! Sarah Nurmi is a professional organizer living in Fishers with her family of five.

Mock disaster tests city, state personnel By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com The Fishers Fire Dept. was home to a unique training exercise involving both city and state emergency services personnel March 15, as a mock disaster situation was staged to test officials’ resource management in the event of a major emergency. A hypothetical tornado touching down through over a mile of Fishers land was the mock disaster training session’s inciting incident. “It's gone through Fishers. It's taken out a school that had a basketball game going on. Two apartment complexes have heavily been hit — multiple fatalities, multiple injuries. The Target Superstore was affected and then, just to throw a little extra spin into it, there was a FedEx truck that was tipped over and two suspicious males exited the vehicle, pointed back at the truck, and shortly thereafter there was an explosion,” Fishers Fire Dept. Cpt. John Mehling said. “We throw a little terrorist event into the middle of it.” Since recovery from such an event would take multiple days and require more man-

power and resources than the City of Fishers has at its disposal, state incident management teams from District 5 and District 4 were brought into the mock disaster training to help manage the crises. “It’s going to take multiple days, so we can’t use the same Fishers people continually,” Mehling said. “You’d usually be working 12-hour shifts before handing off to the next team… What we're doing now isn't about boots on the ground; this is about resource management. These guys aren't talking about what's going on right now; they're now talking about what's going to happen in the next 12 hours. What we left them with was, 'OK here's where we're at. Here's what we need you to do in the next 12 hours.' That's the way the system would continually go.” Mayor Scott Fadness and various department heads worked out of city hall during the training session, handling the legal aspects involved and looking at the city’s long-term infrastructure recovery. “It was really an extraordinary opportunity for our team to come together and learn how we can better serve our community — hopefully we never have to, but if we did — in its worst hour,” Fadness said.

Celebrating past 10 years, St. John Vianney has big plans for future By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com

Approximately 350 families and 1,100 total parishioners have come to call St. John Vianney Catholic Church their home church since it was founded a decade ago. cover story What began with masses in homes found a home for its first service — on Christmas Eve 2005 — in a former office building on 136th Street before Father Brian Dudzinski was officially put in place as the church’s pastor the first weekend of 2006. Now, 10 years later, the parish has since moved into the first building built on a 53-acre lot off Southeastern Parkway just north of 126th Street, but Dudzinski and the church staff and congregation have big plans for the location into the next 10 years and beyond. “Right now, we're trying to raise money to build the parish life center,” Dudzinski said. “That's going to be a key phase.” That building will become the temporary church home once built, and will be able to comfortably seat approximately 750 in its sanctuary. The current building seats between 350 and 400 and was built and designed from the beginning to become the youth center building once the next structure is raised. “It was designed to be a gym, but when you go in there you'd never know it,” Dudzinski said. “It was all very well thought out and well planned … This building wasn't even part of the original master plan, but it was the least expensive building we could build to start.” The church complex’s master plan was established in 2007 through a building committee, parish town hall meetings, the

diocese and an architectural team. The first mass in the current building took place in November 2009 and the parish rectory was added in November 2012. “This was all just a field originally,” Dudzinski said. “With the property we have and with the projected growth in the future, we should be in a good position to grow with that. “For the size of our parish, we have a lot going on. That's why we need a bigger space, just to accommodate it all,” he said. “We need it to grow because to be viable you've got to reach as many people as possible — and the right way… One of the things I did from the start was my philosophy was let's build a parish with a spiritual base to make sure we're doing things for the right reasons. Every ministry, everything we do, Jesus should be the focus.” The church’s master plan includes the final church building, a school for kindergarten through eighth grade and the parish life center, which will be the next facility added to the complex. “We've raised about $1.6 million in our building fund, but we're really going to need probably close to $4 million for the next building, which is comparable if you look at different parishes,”

Dudzinski said. “We're hoping this 10-year anniversary will help. “We have a couple big events we do as a parish every year, so we're trying to focus them on celebrating 10 years,” he added. “Our gala, which is our big fundraiser for the parish, is April 9 … We have a feast day for the parish in August and we're opening that up to the community, too. We always have a golf outing attached to that, too. This summer, we're going to try to have a concert here on the property celebrating the 10 years. There are a lot of things in the works we're trying to do.”

F R O M   T HE BA C KSH O P

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

We’re more for textbooks

Elsewhere in this edition, you will find a story about the Hamilton Southeastern Schools’ board of directors approving the use of iPads for all elementary students. The district points to it as a learning tool. Maybe we’re just too “dollars-and-sense,” but as much as the exposure to technology can be a helpful tool on the pathway to the future, it seems to us that full-time textbook use is the more economical way to go. Kids, for the most part, already are using Mom’s and Dad’s cell phones and tablets, anyway, to watch movies and play games – and maybe even do homework. Adapting to technology isn’t the issue. But there is a district-wide planning-and-training initiative under way, so a reversal of policy isn’t likely, not with the rollout coming next school year. Fiscal conservatives in our midst might wish join us in recalling this the next time an idea for a schools referendum is floated. ••• We watch often for results of polling that media and educational institutions are conducting on the race for the White House. We know from history (and not revisionist history, either) that one oral gaffe, one revelation or one serious misstep can drive downward a presidential candidate’s favorability in a heartbeat. Donald Trump (R-Billions) trails Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.) in almost every poll. That’s all well and good, but it may not last with nearly 150 FBI agents now digging in on Clinton’s e-mail/server investigation. The outcome remains to be seen, and we assume it will end as if the issue never existed. Meanwhile, the candidates might want to switch from blathering to crystal-clear speaking on how they will solve the nation’s ills, not simply that they will.

Scary movies

Commentary by Terry Anker

A few years ago, our oldest son asked to invite some friends over for his first gathering that was to include both boys and girls – at least since his elementary school birthday parties. This was to be a bit more of a social experiment. After all, they were, most of them, now freshmen in high school. So it seemed to them, time for a coed gathering. The impetus for the event was as old as time itself, but the excuse was the Halloween holiday. Plans were made, invitations were meted out and snacks were carefully planned. But, one snag remained. The idea was to select a few “scary” movies for the night – yet the titles suggested by our progeny seemed both a bit gory and outside of the age-appropriate range for the audience to be assembled. After some consternation, we settled on three: “The Creature from the Black Lagoon,” Hitchcock’s “The Birds,” and the original “Jaws.” The Creature fell flat – the rubber suited

villain failed get the attention of the “high definition” audience. When the Birds flew in, expectations were low. But as the skilled director wove his story, the group came to know that real terror comes from what we imagine and not from overt blood and gore. When Jaws swam onto the screen, the kids had achieved their fill of fear. Good. A little scare goes a long way. For his mother and I, the fear was of the transition from one moment in life to another. He and his friends had decided that classmates of the opposite gender were ideal scary movie viewing mates. Hmm. What is it that scares us? Should it? Are birds dangerous? Could they attack? Probably not, but it doesn’t hurt to keep an eye on them – much like a teenage coed movie party!

First day of Spring Break vacation? Usually I’m ecstatic because I get one entire week where my kids are still humor in school (I teach in a neighboring district with a different schedule), and my husband Doo goes off to work, followed by another whole week where he drives our precious little angels to Florida. It’s a dream come true, right? But no trip is scheduled this year, and so far, this SB has been rather sucky. Here’s a rundown of day one. I hadn’t slept well and so arose frustrated that I still had to perform my usual Mommy morning wake-up routine: 6 a.m., girls; 6:15, girls again plus oldest; 6:30 whomever is still sleeping. After the last “Sweetie, it’s time to get up,” I plunged back into to bed hoping to grab a few more Z’s. No luck, I was definitely awake. So I plodded downstairs for coffee and hopefully a few undisturbed minutes of social media bliss. Enter Doo, stage left. “What are ya doing? What’s your schedule today? Are you going to be around to blah, blah, blah … ” Argh! I’d forgotten he’d taken the day off. Immediately my attitude went where I was not – south. What is it about husbands? Don’t they understand that the only time we can truly be “on break” is when absolutely no one – including them – is around? My darling Doo stalked me most of the morning, until finally I decided to escape to the gym, where I promptly pulled a neck muscle and almost got into it with a blue hair not wanting to share equipment. Seriously! Fast forward to the end of my special first day of SB. Our middle son had just successfully completed the first stage of his black belt testing, and in celebration, I accidently flung my phone into a large garbage can. Filled with water. She’s currently buried in a container of rice awaiting a post-Easter miracle. Now I’m stuck with two awkward weeks of working and not, school and no school, a half-dead phone, and very little “me” time. Spring Break 2016? Definitely sucking. Peace out.

Veterans question legislation Editor, An Indiana General Assembly conference committee is scheduled to meet and discuss specifics regarding an extremely important piece of Indiana veteran legislation, Senate Bill 295. The original legislation, authored by Sen. Jim Banks, opens the Military Family Relief Fund (MFRF) to all veterans. Amendments have been added to the bill, and we believe that spending money on a state agency with dollars donated through the sale of license plates to help veterans in need, and money delivered directly to the veteran in need are the wrong answers. Our organizations believe the MFRF is intended to help veterans in need, not subsidize a state agency with $360,000 for training over the next two years. The average grant from MFRF is $2,000. Giving this money to the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs (IDVA) for training for the next two years will potentially take funds from 180 Hoosier veteran families in need. Our organizations can’t think of any other group of citizens who have subsidized the state in such a way, and we also want to make sure the money is not paid directly to the veteran, but to the vendors they owe. This helps protect the fund and to prevent possible abuse. Our organizations are excited at the prospect that the Indiana General Assembly will finally open this fund to all veterans, and are thankful to all the legislators who stood by the veteran service organizations. We as veteran service organizations still have much more work to do. Our veterans want the MFRF protected and used for what it was intended: helping veterans in need.

Weesner a paper tiger Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Betty Weesner had the same job for almost 60 years and never got a promotion. She would have complained to the humor boss, but she was the boss – both the editor and the publisher of The Republican, the oldest newspaper in Hendricks Co. One hundred seventy years old to be exact. Betty always liked to be exact. Betty passed away last week at the age of 90. Since 1890, The Republican has had only three editors. When I reached their office to send my condolences, her long-time assistant Betty Bartley said, “Yeah, some newspapers have that many editors in a year.” Betty Weesner started her career at The Republican in the late ’30s – when she was 10 – writing school news. The editor was a crusty old journalist who also happened to be her father. The publisher was a crusty old journalist, too. (Also her father.) In the 1950s, she graduated from the IU School of Journalism (rare for a woman at the time) and took over for her dad in the mid-’60s. The tiny storefront on Main Street in Danville has housed the newspaper for more than a century, having moved from a couple of other locations over the years. During Betty’s 60-year career as editor, she didn’t miss a single issue, even battling snowstorms to make her deadlines. “People love their local paper,” she said. “When we mess up, we hear about it.” The old building is chock-full of, well, every-

thing, but mostly stacks of newspapers going back decades. Betty’s view of what was worthwhile for her publication echoed her father’s philosophy. He was once asked why Lindbergh’s crossing of the Atlantic was not reported in The Republican back in 1927. “Because Lindbergh was not from Hendricks County,” said the late Edward J. Weesner. Betty had a more lax policy. “If you want to get in The Republican you have to either be born in Hendricks County, live in Hendricks County, work in Hendricks County or get in trouble in Hendricks County.” I once asked her to print my humor column each week and she pretty much told me that unless I was thrown in the local pokey, she couldn’t justify putting my name in her newspaper. Betty believed in local newspapers. “They confirm the gossip you’ve heard all week,” she once told me. Even from her nursing home the last few months, she read each issue, occasionally pointing out a typo. In 2007, I interviewed Betty for my TV segment. The story earned an Emmy award. I went to Danville to tell her about the honor, but she said she still couldn’t mention me in her weekly edition. “But it’s only noon,” she told me. “Plenty of time for you to still get arrested.”

Bizarre foods: Starfruit Commentary by Anna Skinner What is it? Starfruit is popular through Southeast Asia, and it usually has five crests running along the length of the fruit. The fruit is ripe exotic fruit when the waxy exterior is a bright yellow with a few tints of green. The edge of the ridges should be beginning to turn brown to signify prime ripeness. The flesh should be firm. The fruit is very healthy and only contains approximately 30 calories per fruit. How do you eat it? Like an apple, the starfruit can be eaten skin and all. Although it is perfectly acceptable to just gnaw from the outside heading in like apples, I cut mine horizontally so that the fruit turned into little five-point stars. I place mine in the fridge and let it cool before I eat it, although the starfruit can also be eaten at room temperature and stored on a countertop. What does it taste like? The starfruit is very tropical, and it retains a lot of water. It’s friendly as far as exotic fruits go, and it can be a good snack for kids to bring for lunch, especially if cut into stars. The texture is similar to that of a grape, but I thought the exterior skin to be a bit waxy. Where do you buy it? I bought my starfruit at the renovated Kroger on Range Line Road in Carmel, but it is available at most grocers and is more popular than

John Waite has managed to maintain a rock n’ roll career that stretches from to his time as lead singer for The Babys in the 1970s to continuing to tour as a solo music performer today. “I seem to be lucky. I haven’t fallen off the high wire yet,” the British-born star said. Waite, 63, will appear at The Warehouse in Carmel as part of his Wooden Heart Acoustic Tour at 8 p.m. April 14. Waite will sing many of his hits and answer questions from the audience. The Babys had two top-40 hits with “Isn’t it Time” and “Every Time I Think of You.” Both songs peaked at No. 13. The band broke up in 1980. Waite’s huge John Waite will visit Carmel on solo hit, “Missing You,” reached No. 1 in April 14. (Submitted photo) Billboard’s Top 100 in September 1984. The song (which Waite co-wrote) has been covered by Rod Stewart and Tina Turner, among others. “I played with Rod several months ago, and he stopped the show and said what a great singer I was,” said Waite, who opened for Stewart at a concert in Michigan last year. “It took my breath away. That’s Rod Stewart in front of 20,000 people saying John Waite is a great singer. I couldn’t believe he actually said it. Either I’m incredibly modest, or I’m under-rated. That meant a lot to me for someone of Rod’s caliber.” The fact Stewart covered his song was a compliment as well. “‘Missing You’ has been indescribable,” said Waite, who lives in California. “I don’t know where I be without it. The Babys did very well. We were much-loved. It was a hard fight, and we lost. We went down in a hail of bullets. My first solo record almost got completely forgotten. I had trouble with the music business, but I survived it because of ‘Missing You.’ Every so often, there is a royalty check in the mail, which makes things seem OK. Without that, I would probably be doing something to make a living. I probably wouldn’t be in America. I’d be in the countryside in England. I think my life would have been entirely different. But nothing has been easy. Nothing that is worth having comes easy. Every single step of the way for me has been uphill.” Waite left his solo career to form Bad English with two former bandmates from The Babys in the late 1980s, but the band broke up after two albums. He returned to being a solo artist, often taking time off to recharge. “It’s my personality to step back after being in the ring,” Waite said. “It’s like being a boxer. You get in the ring, go at it. Then you go to your corner. It my case, I read a book or spend time in New York City, or I just regroup. The person who can work 365 days a year is more like a machine. I don’t think the work gets any better or improves by being in the limelight all the time.” For tickets, visit liveforthemusic.com.

Financially navigating an unexpected loss Commentary by Joe Clark As families cope with the trials and tribulations of losing a loved planning one, two issues commonly arise. The first relates to the deceased’s wishes. Providing your family with written instructions regarding whom to contact, directions regarding financial matters and the type of arrangements you’d like in the event of your passing is critical to easing angst during a difficult time. A second issue that commonly arises following a loss relates to finances. Many marriages and even businesses have one key financial player who holds the financial answers. Make certain that you and your spouse or partner understand where the assets are held, where the income is generated, what changes will arise if one of you passes and

what liabilities exist. Perhaps most importantly, advise your spouse who they should speak with in the event of your passing. Those left behind are not only missing a friend and confidant, but they may find that their income source has been altered forever, resulting in difficult financial and lifestyle decisions. And while arrangements surrounding death pass quickly, financial decisions can be permanent. The better you can plan ahead, clarify and communicate your wishes, the more likely good decisions will be made.

Juggling life’s priorities can take a toll. That’s why it’s important to find time – even 15 minutes a day – to wellbeing take a break, relax and do something you enjoy. Breaks from life’s hectic pace help decrease stress, increase energy and improve your outlook and well-being. Here are some tips for making the most of this time: • Schedule it. Treat time for yourself as you would any other important appointment – mark it on your calendar. If booking the time is a challenge, consider getting up earlier in the morning to enjoy some free time. • Take advantage of the time you have. Even if you can’t spare an hour or two, don’t give up on the concept of scheduling downtime altogether. If 10 minutes is all you have on weekdays, spend them enjoying a good book or walking around the block. Deep breathing, meditation and stretching only take a few minutes, but can help you destress and re-energize. • Find activities you enjoy. When you’re able to take more time for your-

self – in the evenings or on weekends – consider how you’d like to spend the time. What activities interest you? Is there a hobby you’d like to try or something new you’d like to learn? You’ll be more likely to follow through if you have plans for how you’ll spend the time. • Shake off guilt. Some people feel guilty taking time out for themselves when others – especially children – are counting on them. Remember that when you spend time engaged in activities that contribute to your mental, physical, emotional or spiritual well-being, you return feeling restored and refreshed. And because of that, others benefit too. You’ll soon find that “me time” isn’t an indulgence, but an activity that enables you to be a better parent, spouse, friend, employee – and person – to those around you.

Amazing makeovers for you Commentary by Randy Sorrell Amazing! I love hearing that word ooze from our clients as we walk their project. And, it’s a great description of outdoor living this comprehensive space that allowed thrilling on-site adjustments as updated ideas percolated. PERGOLA Who knew a decade ago that these overhead wood structures would dominate conversations regarding relevant outdoor living spaces? But they do, perhaps because they accomplish so much. This 2-post cedar pergola is a classic design and was built to enhance privacy and provide an intimate feel to the exposed site-lines. It felt very vulnerable without it. FIREPLACE Fire features continue to bring people together, sort of like your kitchen granite counter. While we love building fireplaces, budget often interferes and pushes us towards boulder fire pits, modular units from Godby Hearth and Home in the Indiana Design Center or stone fire features we construct. Gas starters are installed in most and allows for an easy start when burning firewood or a smoke free

Time to plant cool-season veggies Commentary by Noah Herron Waiting for the last frost to pass before planting your garden can be a waste! Now is the time to start your cole seasonal crops before it’s too late. Cole crops do better during the cooler months of April and May and tend to bolt or go to seed during the hot days of June. Cole crops. such as broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage, should be transplanted now for best results. If seeds were not started four to six weeks ago, it’s best to purchase seedlings that can be transplanted now. Too often, inexperienced gardeners will plant cole crops in May, which will result in little to no harvest of these plants. Broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage can easily tolerate cold down to 26 degrees, but once it gets down below that, there’s probably going to be some damage, and if it gets below 17 degrees, it will probably kill them. This is when you should be ready with row covers or buckets to cover the plants should it get down that cold. Cole crops aren’t the only cool-season vegetables that need to be planted early. Snow peas, carrots, spinach, lettuce and other

Cabbage is a vegetable that should be transplanted outdoors in April. (Photo by Noah Herron)

greens need to be direct-seeded into the soil at the end of March or the early part of April. Seed potatoes also should be planted at this time. When Indiana’s summer heat begins in June, the cool-season vegetables will start to turn yellow, and that’s when they should be pulled and replaced with warm-season crops. You can follow up with any warm-season crop such as tomatoes, squash, melons, cucumbers and more! Noah Herron is owner of Urban Farmer Garden Center, 120 E, 161st St., Westfield. To contact Herron, call 600-2807 or visit www.ufseeds.com.

tating towards the popularity of brick patios. Why not excel in both? Trees, shrubs, perennials and groundcover complete a space. Designed and installed properly, landscapes can offer privacy, provide shade and add colorful drama to an otherwise benign area. Lowell, at ProCare, excels at this … so do we! WALL Few materials speak to Indiana like this locally sourced, snapped limestone on the retaining wall. Produced in several shapes, sizes and a few colors, national demand occasionally makes this favorite of ours difficult to secure. Large or small, most amazing outdoor living spaces appreciate one of these delicious elements. Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel home improvement firm.

RSVP via email to concierge@IndianaDesignCenter.com. Remove gum from clothes – Chewing gum can be a sticky mess to remove from clothing or other fabric. Gum hardens when it gets cold so a small garment can be placed inside a plastic bag in the freezer for about an hour. For larger items that won’t fit in the freezer, place a baggie full of ice cubes on the gum spot, and let it sit for 15 minutes. The hardened gum should peel right off. Source: BottomLinePersonal.com Decorating pastries – If you’re learning how to decorate cakes and cookies and have trouble with the pastry bag, here’s a practice tip. Load up your pastry bag with frosting and practice on a clean piece of parchment paper. You can scrape the frosting off the paper and reuse it so there’s no waste. Source: BottomLinePersonal.com Extend produce life – Produce can be expensive, so it’s always frustrating to find it has spoiled before you could use it. Here are a few

tricks to extend the life of that costly produce: 1. Never wash produce before storing it. Washing it and then storing it increases the chances of mold developing. 2. Keep onions and potatoes separated. Otherwise, the ethylene gas they emit will rot them faster. 3. Eat highly perishable produce such as berries, avocados and bananas first. Cabbage, apples and potatoes will keep longer so plan to eat them later. Source: Naturalon.com Using your broiler – Broiling is a fast, easy way to prepare foods. To make it easier, remember the following: 1. Preheat for ten minutes. 2. Dry moist foods with paper towels. Wet food will steam instead of broil. 3. Place the oven rack close to the heat, about four or five inches away. 4. Don’t flip delicate fish. Instead, preheat a baking tray in the oven and place the fish on the hot tray so it will cook on both sides.

Cathedral of the Virgin Mary of the Immaculate Conception (Photo by Don Knebel)

Havana’s rest stop for Columbus Commentary by Don Knebel Havana’s Cathedral of the Virgin Mary of the Immaculate Conception is deliberately imperfect. The Italian Baroque cathetravel dral provided an extended stop on the cross-Atlantic journeys of Christopher Columbus’ remains. In the early 18th century, Jesuit missionaries sent to Cuba had been so successful converting the indigenous people to Christianity that they received permission in 1727 to build a small church in a former Havana swamp. Work on the church, designed by Francesco Borromini, began in 1748, with the ornate façade constructed from coral blocks taken from nearby Cojimar. In 1767, King Charles III, jealous of the Jesuit’s power, expelled them from Spanish lands, including Cuba. The church was completed without them in 1777 and became a cathedral. The towers flanking the cathedral’s entrance are of noticeably different sizes, following the examples of Gothic architects, such as the ones who deliberately made the portals of Notre Dame Cathedral dissimilar because only God can create perfect symmetry. The bells in the larger

tower reportedly include gold and silver along with bronze, giving them an unusually sweet sound. The cathedral itself has been described as “music cast into stone.” After Columbus died in Spain in 1506, he was buried in Hispaniola, where he had stopped on each of his trips to the New World. When Spain ceded Hispaniola to France in 1795, an urn-full of Columbus’ remains was sent to Cuba, where they were interred in the Havana Cathedral’s Altar of the Gospel. After the Spanish American War, the contents of the urn were reshipped across the Atlantic Ocean and placed in an above-ground tomb in the cathedral in Seville, Spain. Havana’s Cathedral is the seat of the Archdiocese of San Cristóbal de la Habana. The cathedral and the adjoining car-free Plaza of the Cathedral are popular destinations for American visitors, including President Obama.
