2015 Dream Home now showcased on Geist By Renee Larr • news@geistcurrent.com The 2015 Dream Home juts out on a small peninsula on Geist Reservoir tucked quietly away in the exclusive Cambridge neighborhood. The more than decor 15,000 square-foot home is quite a sight to see and has taken a dream team of sorts to complete. This year’s team consists of Linda Mordoh, owner of Savvy Decor; Lisa Stites and Kristin Okeley of Kitchens by Design and KBD Home; Scott Campbell of Scott B. Campbell Custom Homes; Gary Nance of Gary Nance Design; and Chad Bruick of Outdoor Environments Group. Campbell has participated in dream homes in previous years. In 2012 during the tour of that year’s home Campbell was introduced to a guest who expressed interest in building a home. Preliminary plans began in fall of 2012 with the home being completed this spring. Every dream home is an undertaking but this year’s home is a standout. The homeowner wanted a large amount of windows with views of the lake from every room. “With this particular home, it’s extremely detailed oriented. The homeowners wanted to take maximum advantage of windows for the best views of the lake. They had a vision in mind,” said Campbell. Every homeowner knows the devil is in the details. This home is full of unique features that set is apart from other homes. “The homeowners really wanted something that had this feeling of a boutique hotel-something they had seen in their travels across the country, around the world,” said Laura Kruty of Indianapolis Monthly, who sponsors the build. Windows, fresh air and the view played an important role when finalizing the workout space. “On the lower level the workout room has sliding doors that you can open up right to the outside so you can work out in fresh air essentially,” said Kruty. On the main level of the home is a pass-through window from a catering kitchen pantry to the main bar in the home. In the event of a catered dinner food can be passed through the sliding marble door to the main area to be served. While there is a very ornate and rich feel the homeowners also wanted the home to have a family appeal

with their kids in mind. There is an upstairs bunk room for overflow guests when the families come together. “One of the things that the homeowner requested was that their kids’ bedrooms not be very big. There are no TV’s in their rooms. They really wanted them to hang out either on the main level or in the kids’ media room on the upstairs,” Kruty said. Local artist, Walter Lobyn Hamilton takes pieces of vinyl records that are broken up into various shapes and recreate images of pop music stars. These images adorn the walls in the media room showcasing Michael Jackson, Blondie, Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley. The restroom in the kids’ media room showcases a black and white hand inlaid chevron floor and whiteboard walls. “You can write on them and do graffiti,” said Mordoh. The home is neutral in tone but according to Mordoh the accents come in the artwork and the accessories.

The kitchen of the Dream Home.

“There is a club room that’s all paneled in walnut with a leather sofa and a fireplace that’s beautiful suede, brushed stone. It has an office with his and her desks that were made for the home. They’re mirror images of themselves,” said Mordoh. While the dream home may not be in everyone’s budget the home is available to tour until May 24, daily from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. Tickets can be purchased in advance online for $15 through the Dyslexia Institute of Indiana or for $20 at the door. All proceeds benefit the DII.

Has the easy money been made? By Joseph Clark In 2009, Barron’s published an article titled, “The easy money has been finance made.” That article was followed up in 2010 by an identical headline in Morningstar. Marketwatch repurchased the title in 2011 as did The Street in 2012 and Morningstar again in 2013 before Barron’s used it in 2014! Along the way, the market reached new highs with below normal volatility. The S&P 500 is currently on a 74-month streak without a 10 percent correction. The average length of a bull market is 54months. Today’s markets are what we call “long in the tooth.” There has been a recent change in leadership from the smaller companies in the S&P 500 to the larger companies. Typically this trend signifies that investors’ risk appetites are waning. That doesn’t mean the end of the world or another 2008 Armageddon but does imply we should expect more volatility. Another noticeable change is that foreign markets are outpacing the U.S. market for the first time in more than three years. We must be alert to clues and consider the broad evidence before making investment decisions. Complacency is the art of being satisfied and without worry. Summing up the feelings

of many equity savers today, “complacent” is an apt description. Over the last three years, the market has seen very little volatility while continuing to rise in value. This relationship of reduced market volatility compared to market performance in a three-year period is at the highest correlation since 1900! Essentially, this analysis tells us that if volatility stays at bay, the markets will tread higher. The obvious concern should be what happens if volatility returns – quickly? Humans are creatures of expectations. They expect bonds to be less volatile than stocks because that is what they have been told, but such conventional wisdom has recently proven untrue. Investors expect the market to behave as it has in the recent past – straight up with limited volatility. But an average market year has a correction from peak to trough of more than 10 percent! Now is no time for complacency. Risk may be resting, but it is out there.

XPECT EXCELLENCE.

Rewards of the job By Mike Colaw The job of pastor is really interesting. In some ways it isn’t what I religion expected at all. The intellectual side of me desired it to be more like academic research, spending my days exploring and contemplating deep theology and philosophy. Though there is a research component, I have found my role is much more like a counselor. I have found in about 15 years of ministry that the relational rewards are just as wonderful as the ontological ones. I get to share in the most precious times in people’s lives. On a wedding day I watch dads cry as they hand their daughters off. I get the first hug when someone is baptized and comes up out of the water emotionally overwhelmed as the crowd cheers. I get a front row seat in counseling sessions as the ways of Jesus bring hope, healing and awaken people to a spiritually abundant life. It’s amazing how powerful living like Jesus can be. I equally get to share in the worst times in people’s lives. It’s my doorbell that rings when a young teen finds out she is pregnant and desperately needs direction. I get the call when families are falling apart. I get to counsel and pray with people who are very sick,

face-to-face with death. I even wake in the middle of the night overwhelmed and in tears for people. I have been on the phone with a man just about to take his own life trying to convince him not to. Seminary doesn’t prepare you for that. As a pastor I do my very best to be transparent week after week as I teach. I would rather share my many faults than pretend I have life figured out. I don’t. It’s not perfect leadership, sermons or counseling I promise the church, it’s the constant pressure to continue to align ourselves with Jesus. I promise I will constantly try to wake people up from the empty dream that frail, temporary, material things actually satisfy. I don’t see our desires too strong but rather too weak. I want people to be so hungry for meaning and purpose that no job, amount of money or temporal pleasure alone can even begin to satisfy. I want people to see further, think deeper and feel more. I want people to continually wake up. I get be a pastor, and it is an awesome job. Mike Colaw is the director of ministries at Trinity Church. You may e-mail him at justthink@ luke117.com.

LCHS student places in national Shakespeare competition By Michelle Williams Coleton Hast, a junior at Lawrence Central High School, placed as a semi-fiarts nalist in the 32nd annual EnglishSpeaking Union National Shakespeare Competition. Having previously won first place in the state competition at Butler University in March, Hast was the only Indiana student to receive an Hast all-expense paid trip to New York City to compete in the national event. The competition was held on April 27th at Lincoln Center Theater for 57 regional winners. Competition judges included a 2012 graduate of Yale School of Drama, Senior Consultant on National Education for the Folger Shakespeare Library, Associate Director of Education at Lincoln Center Theater, a professor of English and Women’s and Gender Studies at Pace University and an Artistic Director of The

Shakespeare Society. Hast has been involved in theatrical arts his entire high school career, performing in the Rookie Show at LCHS his freshman year. He has since performed in most of the school’s other productions, and has been encouraged and mentored by teacher Richard Phillipy. It was Mr. Phillipy who first approached Hast in 2014 about participating in the 2015 National Shakespeare Competition. Hast plans to return for the competition next year, now knowing more about the judging expectations. “I feel I’d have an even better shot at bringing home the gold,” said Hast. He also competes in a variety of other state and regional thespian competitions. Following the completion of his senior year at LCHS, Hast plans to attend college to double major in linguistics and film or acting. Although he has not yet chosen a college, he’s confident about his program of study. An educational path including linguistics may often lead to professions such as acting, linguistics coaching and even a career in education.

Professional trap shooter turns hobby into livelihood By Renee Larr • news@geistcurrent.com Geist resident, Bob Self, has spent more than 40 years shooting guns. What started out cover story as a recreational interest quickly became a part-time job opportunity which eventually manifested into a full-time career. “When I was about 21 or 22 I was married and my father-in-law was a shooter. He started building guns. He taught me all about gunsmithing and gun fitting,” said Self. Over the course of the last 40 years his love for shooting guns has taken him around the United States and the world. He has clients that range from children to Tiger Wood’s former golf coach as a child to congresswoman Susan Brooks. Some even travel to the Indiana Gun Club for their lessons from as far away as California. Self currently teaches trap and skeet at the IGC located in Geist. In trap shooting the targets are launched from one house or machine. In skeet shooting the targets are launched from more than one machine coming at the shooter from various angles. In addition to teaching Self competes at an international level shooting sporting clays or clay pigeons that are ejected from houses at varying speeds and heights at a rotation of stations. His impressive list of wins include 13 time Veteran Champion at State Champions, two Zone Veteran Champion wins and five Gamaliel Cup Veteran Champion among others. Self even has sponsors which provide him with clothing and protective eye and ear wear. Self’s teaching and competing allows him to travel for part of the year. Winters in Indiana can prove to be a slower time for someone who teaches at an outdoor gun range so Self travels to warmer weather climates teaching students to hunt birds. “In the winter when it got so bad here I was fortunate enough to have some doctors that I teach down in Sea

Island. We went to a plantation to hunt quail and they actually hired me to teach their guys coming in to hunt. So, I got to do some teaching out in the field,” said Self. Self typically meets new clients at each event he attends. “I think I traveled 90 some days last year. That’s actually how I got the deal to teach in Bangkok. I was shooting a tournament in Chicago and I think because I was friendly to them they asked me on the last day if I would come to their country and help them learn how to make the birds go away,” said Self. As a man of many gun talents, Self also provides gun fitting services. “Gun fitting entails several different things. The height of the cone, how the gun lines up with your face and the length of pull,” said Self. A gun that does not fit an individual’s body will shoot at a different angle than one specially made for a client’s measurements. Self knows there are some misconceptions about guns and even gun clubs. The only type of gun allowed at IGC is a shotgun. Self even has parents with guns in their home who bring their kids to IGC to learn gun safety training. The first bit of advice Self gives is to buy a gun safe in which to keep the guns. “The reason guns are safer at gun clubs is because the gun has to be opened at all times. We don’t load a gun until we’re down range. You load it, you close and shoot and then open it. No one moves with a closed or loaded gun at a gun club. As much as my lessons are about shooting, they’re twice as much about safety,” said Self. Most people only dream to have jobs that they love but Self has been lucky to take his love for shooting guns and turn it into a livelihood.

The staff took our small group on an informational journey behind the mysterious red stage curtain. We made our way through a maze of hallways and stairs to see the prop storage area, dressing rooms and the famous green room where actors wait to go on stage. We learned about the lighting, sound and the tricks of the trade that make each performance a hit. Our tour ended in the main offices where we were treated to appetizers, drinks and wonderful conversation. We were also surprised with free tickets to see the sold-out “SPAMALOT” – which was hysterical. I can not wait to attend their next event "The Mad Hatter’s TEA PARTY" (for kids/family 3-4:30 p.m.) and "A Twisted TEA PARTY" (for adults 7-10 p.m.) on June 13. Save the date!

Mad about word count

FR O M   T H E BACKSHOP Letters, postings draw our attention The run-up to the recently concluded municipal primary elections provided excitement across the board. It happens every four years (although mostly we wish it were every year). There was electricity in the community, and most of it was positive current. There were, however, times when we told one another that Election Day could not possibly come soon enough. We had “warring factions” going at it through letter-writing campaigns, and we had some borderline incendiary comments on our web sites. It’s fine with us if a letter writer or web commentator responsibly states his or her case for or against a certain candidate or proposal, but when it gets personal we step in and remove the offensive type. Some posts could have been construed as being libelous, and we’re not about to be a party to that. Our take is that if one wants to make a difference through words it should be done with measured clarity. Much of what was dealt with at Current boiled down to “he saidhe said,” and a lot of that was mean, nasty stuff. We’re not about that, and we don’t care to be associated with it. On the other hand, a lot of thoughtful writings were sent our way during the past month-plus, and we published those with dispatch. Is it our sanitizing practice or simply censorship? It isn’t in our view. If there exist standards and those standards are violated, then we believe it is within our right to restrict or deny access to publishing on any of our platforms. One may make a point without being vicious, and many do it well. Of course (wink), this doesn’t apply to our writings about the federal government. To those that voted, thank you.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

‘Thin-skinned’

Commentary by Terry Anker

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me. Most of us memorized the nursery rhyme almost as soon as we learned to talk. It reminds us that physical harm is not the same as emotional distress. But it also hoped to calm us when we felt besieged by those unable or unwilling to include us in their play. For many generations, children were taught the basic common law principle that to be determined an assault, an insult must be accompanied by actual physical violence. Modern pundits have debated whether name-calling should be redefined to include an assertion that “words” can actually hurt more than a physical injury. Bullying, hate-crime, and a panoply of other laws are swamping the criminal justice system. The internet is overflowing with stories of troubled folk who take their own lives pointing to brutal and unrelenting social media “names.” Radical Islam seems willing to indiscriminately take human life in retaliation for perceived insults. And, hooded thugs roam the streets, setting fires and

stealing flat-screens because of a politician’s incendiary and thoughtless populist remarks. Clearly, words are powerful. But, when did we become so thin-skinned? Can we justify physical violence in reaction to mean-spirited, snarky or even intentionally provocative words? Is it right to tolerate this burgeoning oversensitivity? Or, is learning to deal with hurt feelings as a youngster that which leads us to develop the emotional maturity to contend with adult matters in later years? No doubt, bullies should be punished; and, hate should have no place in the civic space. Yet can we hope to build laws to ensure that we never get our feelings hurt? And perhaps more importantly, are we ever right to use real violence to answer an insult? Sometimes, cohabitation requires a little tolerance.

Q U O T E  O F  T H E  W EE K Weekends don’t count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless - E. Jean Carroll

I’m mad. Not about anything big, mind you. That’s the main reason I don’t watch the news; politics, crime, disease, humor poverty and famine do not for a fully-functioning, emotionallycapable working mom of four make. No, my dear readers, I’m in a ginger lather for two relatively inane reasons, both of which I will tell you about right now. The first is what I’m calling “subliminal censorship,” though it really has nothing to do with restricting my freedom of speech. Yesterday I received word that this column, my column, has been cut down to a mere 360 words, almost one hundred less than what I usually write. I know it’s to accommodate a resized newspaper, but I can’t help but feel demoted, even a tad unloved. How am I supposed to wax poetically of my husband Doo’s antics or our children’s teenage trials if I’m limited to four lousy paragraphs? What about pushy PTOs and public breast feeders and non-vaccinators? Those require at least a half-page! Admittedly, I can pack a punch with creative phrasing and slight aberrations of the English language, but even for my considerate talents I will struggle. On top of this professional slight, I experienced a near ham-tastrophe just an hour later. As part of our annual Kentucky Derby party prep, I mail order a country ham. (Indiana is not well-known for southern-style pork. Corn yes, salty swine, no.) Always the same company, always the same ham. Last year I discovered that they offer a spiral-cut version, which saves Doo an hour of meat cutting and several near-amputation misses. But when I opened the box, instead of finding the normal thirteen to fifteen pound bone-in hock, I discovered this adorable little lump of a thing, clearly not worthy of serving forty to fifty plus. Clearly this was not the ham for which I’d hoped! Unfortunately, with only a day until the party, there is no time to re-order or to find a country replacement. We’ll just have to make do with a boring honey-baked and up the mint julep servings to healthy two per. I’d continue on with my rant, but sadly, I’m out of space. Peace out.

Celebrity vocal coach to visit MSV By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Peter Pan flies into Beef & Boards news@currentinwestfield.com

On May 14, Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre will debut the high-flying musical “Peter Pan.” Ticket prices range from $40$65 with discounts available for chilperformance dren ages 3-15. Prices include a buffet style dinner with entrees such as hand carved roast beef, breaded chicken tenderloins, Italian cod fillets along with sides and desserts. B&B is a little different than most theatres in that dinner is included with each performance. For the first half of the evening the theatre is a restaurant and then a transition occurs. After the buffet carts are put away the performance begins. “Most theatres are not-for-profit organizations that don’t have to depend very heavily on ticket sales because they can write grants. Beef & Boards doesn’t have that at our disposal. All of our budget for the shows comes directly from ticket sales. 100 percent,” said Eddie Curry, the show’s director. The story of Peter Pan involves Peter and the Darling

children flying through the air. Aerial acts like these take additional work by the cast and crew. Troy Trinkle of Hall Associates Flying Effects has been brought in to teach the actors to fly. This particular production has ties to 12 different central Indiana communities. Several local actors have been cast as the Lost Boys and the Darling children. “It just goes to show that the talent in central Indiana is all over the place. This is a decidedly local/professional production because the locals that we’re using our professional quality actors,” said Curry. Thede Tayor, who plays Peter Pan, is originally from the Indianapolis area but has been living in the New York City area for the last several years. “So, even the one actress that we’re bringing in from out of town is originally from here anyway,” said Curry. The production of “Peter Pan” runs through July 3. For more information or to purchase tickets visit www.beefandboards. com.

Ron Browning has been dubbed as “Vocal Coach to the Stars.” Browning will be a music special guest of Midwest School of Voice in Carmel from June 22-26. Browning will conduct one-on-one personal sessions with each student. The half-hour lesson, which also inBrowning cludes one of the school’s coaches, costs $135, MSV customer and public relations manager Erica Thompson said. “Students can not video record the sessions, however, they can bring in a vocal recording device,” Thompson said. “Then Ron will allow them to record portions of their sessions,” Thompson said. Browning’s long client list includes includes Carrie Underwood, Wynonna Judd, Patti LaBelle, Alison Krauss and Keb Mo, a three-time Grammy winning blues musician. The Nashville-based coach also serves as a vocal and performance coach at the Nashville Jazz Workshop and is a voting member of both The Grammy Foundation and the Country Music Award Association. Browning visited MSV last year to conduct a group session. “MSV includes several up-to-date music studios (each teacher has his or her own studio with recording and other equipment, etc.), large rooms for group meetings and performances and a top-notch staff gifted in voice, guitar and piano,” Browning stated. “If you live anywhere in the area, Midwest School of Voice is the place to study.” MSV founders/coaches Blair Clark and Heather Ramsey Clark are students of Browning. The school is for all ages. “We’ve had students as young as five and as old as 80,” Thompson said. Thompson said the lessons are starting to fill up. To register, call 660-1372. Thompson said more than one halfhour session can be booked by each student. If vocalists have not previously worked one-on-one with a MSV coach, Browning requires a vocal evaluation to be completed with an MSV coach prior to booking a session with him. Browning only works with referrals from labels, major studios or coaches who are familiar with his techniques. The vocal evaluations can be booked by calling the MSV main office, or by using the online scheduling system at discovermsv.com. “This is a unique opportunity for students since he usually only takes referrals from labels,” Thompson said.

Cinderella: Celebrating 15 years of performances

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

A classic tale loved by all will be performed at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre in Carmel on May 16 by Central Indiana dance Dance Ensemble. The dancers will perform a full-length story ballet of “Cinderella” at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The performance runs around two hours including the intermission. Tickets cost $25 for adults, and $18 for children under 18. The CIDE has performed “Cinderella” two other times, but not in the past five years. They are putting the story together to celebrate their 15th anniversary. Recently, the “Cinderella” movie was released, and the CIDE believe the publicity from the movie will bring more attendance. “I think it’s the perfect time to perform this ballet because the “Cinderella” movie just came out a few weeks ago so now we have a real, live version for families to enjoy,” Alexa Amatulli, marketing supervisor for the CIDE board of directors, said. Amatulli said that spring performances usually always sell out. “We perform popular movies that people know and that they want to see on stage,”

Megan Hustel dances with a broom in “Cinderella.” (Submitted photo)

Amatulli said. She also said she believes the show will sell out quick.All dancers at CIDE are pre-professional, aged anywhere from kindergarten to seniors in high school. Normally the older dancers put on the full length story ballets. Tickets are available through the Center of Performing Arts Box Office. They can be reached at 843-3800 or online at cftpa.cloudtix.com.

Smoothie King slated to open in Fishers By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Chris Sgroi was looking for the right franchise opportunity. “I noticed other major cities have Smoothie King stores and Indianapolis business does not,” Sgroi said. So Sgroi will open the first of his planned three Smoothie King stores in Fishers. Sgroi’s store will open on 8270 E. 96th St. between the Jimmy John’s and Qdoba. The Smoothie King is targeted Sgrol to open in the last week of June or first week in July. “It’s a great location,” Sgroi said. “The projection is I will probably hire 25 people. At first I’m going to be splitting (managing) with someone else. But I’m going to be opening other stores so I’m probably going to have two managers the second year.” Sgroi has a deal to have three Smoothie King franchises in the next three years. He has not committed to another site, but hopes to open the second one in the spring of 2016. “We’re looking in the Carmel Keystone area and or in Noblesville,” said Sgroi, who lives on

The Smoothie King’s new location, 8270 E. 96th St. (Submitted photo)

the northwest side of Indianapolis. There was a Smoothie King on the northwest side of Indianapolis but the owner decided to close it a few years ago, Sgroi said. Sgroi said Smoothie King informs the franchise owners what items are typically the most successful and which ones aren’t. “Smoothie King also sells the retail products such as protein powders and the protein bars,” said Sgroi, who previously worked for in the retailers such as Galyan’s and hhgregg. “They now have vegan smoothies. They have one where they use Ghirardelli chocolate to

make a dark chocolate banana smoothie.”, Sgroi said. Sgroi said he looked at other smoothie franchises but decided Smoothie King was the way to go. “They are the nation's largest smoothie company and they are the original creators of the word smoothie,” Sgroi said. “It was started in New Orleans as a healthy alternative to people who had allergies of all things. The founder’s children had a lot of allergies and he created in the blender a drink that his kids could enjoy.”

Runner: Embrace rest to get ahead By Dan Ordaz, M.D. For new and experienced runners, training too long or too hard can backfire, trigfitness gering injuries and hampering performance. On the flip side, adequate rest can help you outrun those overtrained runners, a welcomed Ordaz advantage as summer races approach. I average 60 to 70 miles each week running anything from 5ks to marathons. I see plenty of injuries my role as a sports medicine physician. When runners come in with a complaint, the biggest problem we see is training error. In fact, it’s the No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3 problems we see. The biggest culprit? Pushing too hard and cutting corners on recovery. It’s usually something like, “I’ve increased my mileage, added a workout here and there, and I’m not sleeping as much as I used to.” While overtraining is an issue among athletes of all levels, it’s particularly notable among high school athletes. Kids nowadays don’t get time off. They go from cross country

to indoor track to outdoor track; they’re running over the summer, maybe participating in another sport. We often don’t see teens doing a good job at recovery. It’s a pity, considering rest enables the body to better absorb workouts and improve in ways it can’t when it’s constantly being pushed. The impact of rest (or lack thereof) as a training strategy will be in full display at the approaching St.Vincent Geist Half Marathon, expected to gather nearly 7,000 runners on May 16 around the Geist Reservoir. In my role as the event’s medical director, I tell participants to take it easy in the days preceding this event, or any race. Understand that, at this point, you’re not going to improve your fitness much by race day, so don’t bury yourself in workouts over the last few days. Rather, get plenty of sleep. Sleep well at least two nights before the race, in case pre-race jitters steal your sleep the night before. One night of poor sleep won’t sabotage your race, but successive nights will get to you. Whether running for fun, fitness or a medal, this is one recommendation runners of all levels can manage with their eyes closed. Literally.

Morro castle and the 14th colony With Americans now able to travel to Havana, they can visit a sixteenth century fortress that played a role in travel creating an often-overlooked fourteenth English colony. Spanish explorers founded Havana in 1519 near a harbor on the north side of Cuba. Havana soon became the primary port for shipping goods from the New World back to Spain. When gold ships docked in the port proved sitting ducks for Caribbean pirates, Spanish authorities ordered construction of a large fortress on a hill overlooking the narrow entrance to the harbor. The fortress, completed in about 1640, was named “Castillo de los Tres Reyes Magos del Morro” after the Three Magi. Dubbed “Morro Castle,” the fortress had an artillery battery called “Twelve Apostles” pointing toward the water. A chain stretching from the castle to the other side of the harbor entrance blocked pirate ships from penetrating the port. With its port protected by the astle, Havana grew rich providing supplies for vessels heading for Spain. By the middle of the eighteenth century, Havana was the third largest city in the Americas. In 1762, during its Seven Years’ War with France and Spain, England sent

4,000 troops to Cuba and captured Morro Castle by attacking it from the unarmed land side, a tactic that apparently caught the Spanish defenders unprepared. Having lost control of the bustling Havana port, Spain ceded Cuba to England. A year later, England traded Cuba back to Spain in exchange for Florida, a deal many in England thought foolish because of the wealth and importance of Cuba. Florida became England’s fourteenth American colony, but refused to join the other colonies in seeking independence. In 1783, England returned Florida to Spain in the Treaty of Paris ending the American Revolution. Today, the well-preserved but inadequately signed Morro Castle is open to the public. Every night at precisely 9 p.m., guards in Spanish colonial uniforms fire a rusty cannon, a ritual originally intended to signal Havana residents the gates of their city were closing. Few Americans hearing the cannon shots know that the unexpected vulnerability of Morro Castle led to an additional, but short-lived, English colony.

Watering tips for plants By Bob Wasson With all the talk about the importance of adults “staying hydrated,” consider this: the average adult male is comgardening posed of 65 percent water; most animals consist of about 75 percent water. But plants, on average, are 90 percent water. If you see shriveled or discolored leaves, limp stems or dropping petals, it’s a sure sign the plants in your yard aren’t getting enough H2O. So here are some watering tips that will help keep your outdoor plants blooming all season long. It’s the roots of your flowers and plants that need water, not the leaves. In fact, watering foliage can promote the spread of fungus and disease — especially during hot, humid summer weather. If you don’t have an irrigation system in your yard, a soaker hose or an extension wand attached to a basic garden hose is a great way to apply water to the roots of your plants. They will help you water all your vegetation deeply and thoroughly – and without wasting a lot of water.

Mulch will slow the rate of moisture loss from your soil. So be sure to mulch all your flowerbeds. The best time of the day to water is early in the morning or later in the evening when temperatures are cooler and there’s less evaporation. Plants in containers dry out more quickly than those planted in the ground. Most successful container gardeners water their outdoor pots once a day — especially when the temperature climbs into the mid-80’s or higher. You may want to install a rain gauge somewhere in your yard to be sure your flowers and plants are receiving at least one inch of water per week. If Mother Nature isn’t supplying the moisture they need, then you’ll need to lend a hand. Remember, good hydration is essential to maintain a hardy, healthy, productive garden.

Bob Wasson is president of operations at Wasson Nursery in Muncie. He may be reached at (765) 759-9000.

Dispatches Diapers in your garden – Did you know that using a diaper in a pot can help keep your plant hydrated? Cut open an unused diaper and empty granules into the planter. Add water. One diaper can hold up to nine cups of water, which will ensure your plants won’t run out of water on a hot day.

dirt under your fingernails while you work in the garden, draw your fingernails across a bar of soap and you'll effectively seal the undersides of your nails so dirt can't collect beneath them. Then, after you've finished in the garden, use a nailbrush to remove the soap and your nails will be sparkling clean.

Cleaning pots – To remove the salt deposits that form on clay pots, combine equal parts white vinegar, rubbing alcohol and water in a spray bottle. Apply the mixture to the pot and scrub with a plastic brush. Let the pot dry before you plant anything in it.

Turn a long-handled tool into a measuring stick – Lay a long-handled garden tool on the ground, and next to it place a tape measure. Using a permanent marker, write inch and foot marks on the handle. When you need to space plants a certain distance apart (from just an inch to several feet) you'll already have a measuring device in your hand.

Covered porch creates outdoor living area

Commentary by Larry Greene

before & after

ORIGINAL BACKYARD: This home, located in the Haverstick subdivision in east Carmel, was built in 1998 with a step down concrete patio. “After moving back to blueprint for Carmel to be closer to our grandchildren, we improvement wanted to recreate the look of our Florida lanai off the back of our new house.” COVERED VS SCREENED-IN-PORCH: “The existing patio and landscaping felt constrictive and the steps leading down were not safe for us to use. We wanted an open covered porch level with the house so that we can safely enjoy the outdoors and wildlife.” FRAMING & ROOFING DETAILS: After completing the deck foundation and surface installation work, the new covered porch was set on 6x6 treated wood posts and 2” x 12” structural beams to support the new roof. Matching shingles and gutters were installed to complete the rough carpentry of the covered porch. The structure was then painted to match the existing house trim color to create a cohesive look. COMPOSITE DECKING: Trex Transcend decking material with hidden fasteners was

chosen due to its low maintenance and resistance to the scorching sun, scratches and mold. “Tree House” color was chosen for the trim, main deck and railing. PORCH DETAILS: A concrete pad was poured off of the porch steps to create an area dedicated for bird feeding. The cathedral ceiling adds visual interest and helps the space feel more open. A ceiling fan and two recessed lights were installed on dimmer switches to help create perfect ambience.

RESULT: “The porch has become one of the most relaxing areas in our home. We love how it makes the house feel so much bigger and open. The best part is being able to open the back windows and door and enjoy the breeze throughout the whole house.”
