What it means: Many council members were concerned about the subdivision not meeting requirements of the comprehensive plan, but others argued that it would be unfair to the petitioner to change the rules this far into the process. The issue of adequate numbers of stub streets arose, but the council approved the proposal, 5-2, with Brad DeReamer and Rich Block voting against. What happened: The council approved a request to rezone the MedTech PUD on approximately 37 acres at 14000 E 136th St. What it means: Central Indiana Orthopedics proposed a 50,000-square-foot medical facility for the MedTech PUD.

What happened: Council approved a petition to amend the text of the Britton Falls Planned Unit Development Piper Glen Subdivision to clarify that floor plans of all residents should offer three-car garages as well as modified garage door requirements.
What happened: The 2017 budget was introduced to city council. What it means: Mayor Scott Fadness introduced the 2017 budget to the council with plans to increase public safety as well as focus on roads. Fadness informed the council that Fishers had a AAA bond rating, the only city in Indiana to achieve that rating. Fadness expects a 1.5- to 2-cent tax increase per $100 of assessed property. The budget is expected to be approved by Oct. 17.
Vice chair appointed – Hamilton County Surveyor Kenton C.

Hoosiers will still be able to cast a straight ticket Nov. 8, but that vote will not count for individual candidates for county council or town council at-large. Voters now need to select each candidate they wish to elect for at-large county council and town council seats.

The MedTech PUD is in the I-69 and 136th Street corridor. (Submitted photo) What happened: The council approved a $25 wheel tax to be issued in January 2018. What it means: Beginning in January 2018, drivers with a registered car in Fishers will pay a $25 wheel tax with their registration fees. Fadness said he expects this to bring more than $2 million to the community per year. He said roads need to be resurfaced every 15-20 years, but at Fishers’ current rate, they won’t be resurfaced for 70 years. The council approved the tax unanimously, despite mention of likely political backlash. “The quality of life in Fishers is why people move here,” DeReamer said. “To maintain that quality of life expected requires that we maintain our roads. None of us up here want to raise taxes, but we don’t have any choice. It’s really a simple thing to vote for. Politically, we will take a lot of hit, but we need it.” Member Todd Zimmerman said that he has heard that Hamilton Southeastern school buses are unable to pass each other because roads are too narrow. “I’m not usually in favor of any kind of tax increase, but this is what I consider vital to the safety in the community and the continued growth in the community,” he said.
i-69 update This week, there are no I-69 lane restrictions at the 106th Street interchange project. Shifting lane patterns and reduced lane widths will cause a reduced speed limit.

Apple store now open By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com When Conner Prairie’s Apple Store opened its doors Sept. 1 for its 31st year, customers waited outside and lined up Family Fun throughout the store. Returning customers arrived early to wait for the doors to open, and President of the Conner Prairie Alliance Barbie Millington said business was strong all day. “We had people outside waiting for us to unlock the doors, and then we had lines all around the store,” she said. “It stayed that way all day, but that’s pretty normal for our first day.” In addition to the fall-themed gifts, doughnuts, Indiana-made goods, caramel apples, pies, candies and popcorn, this year the apple store will feature bicentennial caramel apples and candies. The apples are dipped in caramel and nuts, then coated in chocolate and finished with a yellow and blue chocolate drizzle to commemorate the bicentennial. Funds raised through the apple store go directly to the museum. This year, the funds will go toward a new roof on the Animal Encounters Barn. Any remaining money will benefit the Headless Horseman program. “This is our 31st apple store, and the 35th

Mullins chosen for dance photos By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Gabby Mullins has been dancing since she was a toddler. She’s loved the outdoors since that age, as well. She visited the Hoosier National Forest in Bedperformance ford, Ind. with three other dancers last month to be photographed for a project titled “Dance Across the USA.” “It’s to raise awareness and funds for the national parks and to showcase the arts program like dance and theatre and singing and acting and to raise awareness for our parks and show off the beauty of the parks,” the 13-year-old said. Mullins was chosen from a field of 3,000 applicants. Eventually, the photos will make it into a book available for purchase. Photographer Jonathan Givens began his trek across the U.S. in July, and he is working his way back to photograph girls in many of the national parks. Plans are to finish up this month. He had to raise $40,000 for the project to pay for permits for shooting professional photos in the parks. Givens is camping out wherever he shoots. “I’m really excited since it’s in a forest,”

Innovation Academy targets kids By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com After spending 20 years in public education as a business and technology teacher, Carolee Tremain had a vision to teach kids without being so test-driven. That Education led her to create a nonprofit, Maker Navigator, last year, and then build the Innovation Academy that opened in July to give kids a place to experiment. “Over 20 years we have become so testdriven in class ... they’re doing a great job in schools, but the bell rings. You teach them the concepts and the bell rings, it’s time to go,” Tremain said. “(Kids) need a place they can just experiment and explore. They need access to not only the most modern technology, but basically to the skills to empower them to know to create whatever they want. The goal is to stimulate innovation.” Tremain’s Maker Navigator offers multiple workshops at the Innovation Academy, 10080 E. 121st St., Suite 115, including 3-D printing, programming, circuits, textiles and more. The age group ranges from grades K-8. “It is hands-on, minds-on, but it is fun,” she said. “We make what they’re learning in school practical. I’ve developed a systematic

approach to instructional design for innovation where we do set the stage and we coach them.” Tremain said the workshops even offer a “best fail” award to those kids who learn by trial and error. “With kids now, if they fail on a test, that’s so negative, it crushes their soul and that’s their final try,” she said. “We don’t confuse setting kids up for success with not letting them fail.” Tremain also has a traveling makerspace that visits schools and libraries.

Safe Families preps for gala

The nonprofit Safe Families for Children Central Indiana is holding its annual gala at 6 p.m. Oct. 6 at FORUM Conference and Events Center, 11313 USA Pkwy. event Beth Bishop, assistant director of Safe Families for Children Central Indiana, said the gala will raise money needed by the program to continue its services with the community. Bishop said the main goals of the program
Hamilton Southeastern High School sisters Natalie Wilkinson, a 17 year-old senior, and sophomore fundraising Claire Wilkinson, 15, created a MakeA-Wish club at the school to help grant wishes in Hamilton County. Natalie said they drew inspiration from their father, Jeff Wilkinson, who is president of the board of the local Make-A-Wish Foundation. “We have been at the Make-A-Wish resort down in Disney. We volunteer there every year,” Natalie said. “We found out that in Hamilton County they need a lot of money for the wishes. We decided to start a club to help with the fundraising.” Natalie said their goal is to raise $8,000 by the end of the school year. That is how much it costs to grant one child’s wish. To raise the money, the club will hold one service project every month. Events included an Indiana Fever game Sept. 16, and maybe a haunted house in October, along with a 5k race in November. Natalie said club members attended

Alison Hanscom, her husband Steve and their three children have hosted 20 kids in seven years as a host family. “There is such a huge need,” Hanscom said. “We really feel like Jesus has called us.

ENDING AN ENGAGEMENT- WHAT TO EXPECT: LEGAL IMPLICATIONS
Hire Us
Before Your Spouse Does DIVORCE & FAMILY LAW MEDIATION & COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE Custody Child Support Prenuptial Agreements Adoptions Education Law DUI 317.DIVORCE | www.hzlegal.com 11555 N. Meridian St. | Suite 530 | Carmel, IN 46032
In Indiana, courts divide a divorcing parties’ property in a manner which is deemed to be fair and reasonable. Indiana is considered a “no-fault” state, meaning the division of property is not dependent on who caused the relationship to end. Instead, the law of equity determines property distribution. Indiana law follows the “one-pot” theory for the division of marital property, which presumes all marital property is put into one pot and that a fifty-fifty (50/50) division of all marital assets and liabilities is presumed to be fair and reasonable. However, there are various factors Courts consider in determining whether or not a deviation from the equal division is warranted, including: the contribution of each spouse to the acquisition of property; the economic circumstances of each spouse at the time of the disposition of the property; the conduct of the parties during the marriage as related to disposition or dissipation of their property; and the earning ability of the parties. Thus, while an equal division is presumed, one party can request more than fifty percent of the marital estate. However, what if the parties are never legally married? How does a court divide property and is the “no fault” theory still applicable? When ending an engagement, generally the laws governing a divorce do not apply to an unmarried couple. If the parties are never legally married, both parties are entitled to ownership of their own property and debts, unless there was an intentional decision to combine assets, which has been formalized. While this may seem easy enough, a few questions may remain, especially as they relate to property that once symbolized a couples’ affection for one another and contemplation of marriage. Under Indiana law, what happens to the engagement ring if the engagement is called off? Well, the courts must determine ownership of the engagement ring. In determining such ownership when the condition of marriage is never satisfied, courts either look to a “fault-based” or “no-fault” approach. The majority of jurisdictions utilizes a “fault-based” approach and order the engagement ring to be returned only if the engagement was broken by mutual agreement or unjustifiably by the receiver of the ring.
The “fault-based” theory stems from the idea that if the engagement ring is a token and symbol of the couple’s pledge to wed one another, it would seem only fair that the violator of such promise should not also get to keep the ring. However, keeping consistent with Indiana’s “no-fault” system of divorce, we utilize a “no-fault” approach when it comes to an engagement ring dispute. Thus, if no marriage occurs, the ring or the monetary value contributed to the ring legally belongs to the giver of the ring, not the person to whom it was gifted. Who is responsible for the wedding expenses? If contracts were signed for the wedding at the time the unmarried couple ends their engagement, then liability for the contract remains with the party who entered into the agreement. A contact occurs when two parties enter into a legally binding agreement. For example, a bride may enter into a contract with a florist to create her bouquet for the wedding day if the bride agrees to pay for the service. When the bride agrees, then a binding agreement is made between the bride and florist. If a cancellation is necessary, the bride would be the party considered legally liable for the contract. Upon cancellation of a contract with a vendor, the vendor and party cancelling should proceed according to the contract between the parties. Often times, such contracts will include a cancellation clause that details what happens in the event of a cancellation…whereby the contract might allows for a party to receive back their deposit, only pay a partial price, or pay nothing at all. The terms agreed to would be fact specific to each party and should be carefully examined before entering into the agreement.

Valerie and Kenny Phelps aim to give back with local record label By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com For more than 20 years, Indianapolis natives Valerie and Kenny Phelps have been professional musicians. In cover story recent years, they have worked philanthropically through their nonprofit status to create opportunities and help launch careers of music students in the Indianapolis area and give back to organizations and initiatives that need help. In 2013, the duo, who reside in Lawrence, purchased the former OWL Studios and rebranded it as OWL Music Group. Their mission is to support and market local musicians and use the record label as a vehicle to benefit the community. RADIO SHOW Each week, OWL Music Group hosts a radio show on WICR (88.7 FM) at 9 p.m. Monday nights. “The purpose is to help expose local artists and bring on national artists, as well as to give the listeners kind of a snapshot behind-thescenes of the music industry, (give them) a closer look," Kenny said. “And then we also spotlight agencies that produce a positive change in our community.” “He interviews local and national talent,” Valerie said. “He previews their album.” EVENTS “Every event benefits something in the community or a worthwhile cause,” Valerie said. Some events in recent years have benefited organizations and groups like Indy Parks, the Dept. of Public Safety and The Julian Center. Each year, the record label partners with Q-95’s Bob & Tom Show for Heat Relief, a concert and donation event where community members can purchase bottled water to donate to Wheeler Mission. This year, the event received more than 130,000 bottles. “I am proud because we can use our music to help and heal. How can we use music to help promote change?” Kenny said. “It’s more than just producing records. Anybody can do that. So, what are we going to do with that once we have that audience? How do we share artists and audience together to have that impact?” “When you donate, or when you attend our concerts, it’s all going back to the community,” Valerie said. “Besides, it’s the best musicians and the best singers in the city.”

THE NIGHT OWL SESSIONS OWL Music Group’s Night OWL sessions target students in high school and college who want to pursue a career in music. But the workshop program runs the gamut on careers that revolve around music, from performing to lighting and sound, choreography, producing, album design, writing and so much more. “So, most of the time when you think about being a musician, what you think about is performing on stage or traveling around the world," Kenny said. "But then there’s a whole other side of the business that most people don’t think about. There are so many aspects to the music business, and we want to expose them to all of them.” The next Night Owl Session will take place Oct. 17 at North Central High School for jazz students from North Central and Noblesville high schools. “Those kids will get a chance to work with seasoned professionals and learn about the industry,” Kenny said. “We have a Christmas show coming up Dec. 10 at the Schrott Center (at Butler University). So they’re going to be a part of that. We’ll send them songs, and they will get to perform the songs with professional musicians for that Christmas show.” Earlier that day, students will participate in various clinics offered by Butler University as well. The Christmas show will begin at 7:30 p.m. at the Howard L. Schrott Center for the Arts, 610 W. 46th St., Indianapolis. The event is open to the public. Tickets are $25 pre sale and $30 the day of.
GETTING THEIR START IN MUSIC “I’ve been a singer for more than 20 years,” said Valerie, who began singing gospel in church in her 20s. “I met Kenny when I was singing at Clowes Hall, and he was one of the musicians playing there. So, 22 years later…” For years, the duo has been performing separately all around the Indianapolis area. “My roots are in gospel, and once I met Kenny, I was exposed to jazz and to pop and all these different styles, because that’s what he does, he plays drums,” Valerie said. “So when we got together, I got exposed to all these different styles of music and realized that I love it all.” Kenny said he also grew his musical roots in church. “I was probably about 4 or 5. My mom would take out the pots and pans, or let me have pencils in the back of the car,” he said. “ So they finally got me a drum set, and I just kept playing. As I got through school, I met different musicians. Traveling around a lot with gospel things, I got a chance to see things from a different perspective other than just through the church. I thought, ‘Man, this is what I want to do for a living.’” After participating in a job-shadowing program at Eli Lilly, Kenny said he knew he wasn’t living out his true passion and left the job to become a professional musician. Valerie works a full-time day job at Harrison Hill Elementary School, works nights as a singer throughout the city and is the program director at OWL Music Group. Kenny is the CEO of OWL Music Group and is a drum instructor at Butler University.

VIEW FROM T HE R I GH T Another weekend in leftist USA
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Commentary by Susan Stamper Brown We live in a country run by people who tell us that if a man puts on a dress and says he’s a woman we are supposed to take him at his word. But if a man goes on a murderous rampage in the name of Allah, and ISIS claims responsibility, we shouldn’t draw conclusions. Americans selected this band of leftist fools who have zero aptitude for dealing with terrorism. In a 12-hour span Sept. 18 and 19, we saw that it is not safe to shop in a mall in Minnesota, or run a 5k in New Jersey or walk in New York City without risk of terrorism. “Rest assured,” they tell us, “justice will be served.” Of course, they are always quick to remind us to not make assumptions. Heaven forbid we offend someone’s sensibilities. The beautiful fragrance of the American way of life is being overtaken by the stench of dead flies resting on the laurels of political correctness. When ISIS claimed responsibility for the Minnesota attack, it wasn’t enough for the FBI to draw conclusions about the motive of the stabber. Meanwhile, in New Jersey, a pipe bomb-like explosive device detonated along the route of a 5K charity race to help Marines and sailors, and in New York City, 29 people were injured when an improvised explosive device went off in a Manhattan neighborhood. Bill de Blasio, mayor of New York City, overly obsessed with controlling what New Yorkers eat and drink, immediately called the bombing “a very serious incident.” Apparently, the mayor couldn’t get his sodium-free tongue to utter the word “terror.” A case of follow the leader?

Dawn of the dread
Commentary by Terry Anker
Sometimes we dread the unknown. It scares us to peer into the abyss failing to comprehend the bottom. Other times, the known can hold as much sway in bringing us to the brink of breakdown. We note a coming obstacle and, recalling the difficulty in overcoming it at our last outing, drag our feet to avoid the confrontation. Either way, dread is here to stay. And in many cases, we are entirely justified in feeling the strong sense of foreboding. But with so many things in life proving to be difficult, and so many more unpleasant, how can we be a productive human if controlled by dirty doctor dread? There is a talisman to arrest this demon. From the dawn of dread, time has demonstrated to be its ultimate slayer. There has proven no difficult period, no rough patch in life, no embarrassing moment that has not, in due, unrelenting time, come to pass. Although we cannot control the object of our anxiety, whatever it may be, and even if it
may have irreversibly changed the direction of our lives, the intensity of the burden will fade. To be sure, we have all confronted demons and lost wars. Some more significant than others. Relationships fail. Careers veer off course. People die. But each of these will eventually cede to the clock. As soon as we direct ourselves to move on, we are free to do so. Likewise, the petty challenges of our daily routines — tests to be taken, reports to be filed, and rooms to be cleaned — all come and go with no more power over our lives than we give them. Prepare as best as possible. Take the test. Live with the consequences. Move on. Dread is still with us, but we are its master. So relax, it will all be over soon.

Q U O T E O F T HE W EEK It is not how much you do, but how much love you put into the doing that matters. – Mother Teresa
The other night I woke up to a horrible smell. I thought at first it was my own breath, but after a cautious humor sniff and the recollection that I had indeed brushed, flossed and Listerined, I sat up and began looking around the darkened room. The odor seemed to be everywhere. When my eyes finally rested upon my peacefully sleeping husband, I solved the mystery. Doo was emitting noxious garlic fumes from every pore of his body, probably the remnants of his Thai food lunch. Again. But here’s the weird thing, I can’t tell if it’s him or if it’s me. What I mean is, does Doo have a strange affliction that causes him to radiate meal-stink eight hours post-consumption? Or have I developed such a superhuman sense of smell that even the tiniest waft of onion sweat makes me crazy? In all fairness to Doo, I also cringe and wave my hand frantically to increase air flow whenever I become trapped in a car with an odiferous teenager who’s straight from a 10-hour color guard practice. That’s not unusual, I suppose, but I’ve noticed I do the same thing even when confronted with what most would consider pleasant scents. For example, I frequently pinch my nose when the aforementioned teen enters a room wearing her new cucumber-aloe spray deodorant, or when her brother dons his cologne. Too much hairspray and/or perfume will also send me running, if I’m lucky enough to have the space to flee. Doo thinks I have a disorder called hyperosmia, which is really just a hypersensitivity to smell. But according to medical-dictionary. com, it’s common among “neurotic and histrionic personality types,” which clearly is not me. So maybe my issue is middle-age hormones, like when a pregnant woman becomes nauseous at the first hint of fried chicken in the air. Perhaps the good Lord has taken pity on my failing 40-something body, and is compensating me with supersized, estrogen-fueled schnoz abilities. Whatever the reason, I can see only two choices. Either Doo stops eating flavorful food or I start wearing a nose clip. Peace out.

REA D ER ’ S V I E W Defending my columnist Editor, I feel compelled to defend my favorite writer of satire! By definition, satire is “a literary work in which human foolishness or vice is attacked through irony, derision, or wit” (freedictionary.com). One of my absolute favorite writers is Danielle Wilson, who finds humor and gives us laughs in everyday family activities. Any person who would take the time to write
a letter to criticize another human being, much less a satirical author, must be a curmudgeon. Danielle’s humor is self-effacing, light-hearted, witty and filled with daily happenings that we have all experienced! Keep up the good work, Danielle! We look forward to your column every week!

Turn for the worse Commentary by Dick Wolfsie I seem to have a great deal of trouble turning things off. Turning them on? No sweat. Light switches, blenders, lamps, humor ovens and fans are a breeze — especially the last one. When I’d turn off my old car’s ignition and get out, it kept running. There was an additional reason I never bought another Ford Pinto, but I forget why now. My wife keeps reminding me to turn off my turn signal. My car has six airbags, a rear-view camera and voice-controlled GPS directions. I’d give it all up if the blinker would go off automatically after I — what’s the word I’m looking for? Oh, yeah: turn. The other day my wife and I were talking via cell phones. “Dick. Gotta go, I have another call.” “Okay, see ya.” “Dick, are you going to hang up or not?” “I’m trying, Mary Ellen. I pushed the button three times.” “I’m trying, also. Get off the phone. I don’t want to talk to you anymore.” “Don’t make this sound so personal.” Sometimes I can’t get my computer to shut down. I called Kevin, my tech nerd. He asked,
“Did you push the off button?” “How dumb do you think I am? And don’t mention that time for a hundred bucks you got my printer working by just plugging it back in the outlet.” “Okay, press the power button softly and hold it just a second.” “I did that. It won’t turn off.” “Then press the power button really hard and hold it for 20 seconds.” “How can both of those be right? I’ll just pull out the plug.” “Good idea. I can use the money.” I can’t turn off the loud commercials that play in the background of websites because I can’t find where the X is to close the windows. I’d turn the whole computer off, but remember: I don’t know how to do that. Yesterday, my wife wanted to go out for a date night. I suggested a sandwich at Jimmy John’s and the new Vin Diesel movie. “So much for romance,” she said. Finally, I learned how to turn something off.

Where’s Amy attends ATI’s Million Dollar Quartet Actors Theatre of Indiana has set the bar high yet again with its hit sensation “Million Dollar Quartet.” Where’s Amy attended the opening night show and from start to finish was beboppin, foot stompin’ and swaying to the tunes of Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and, yes, Elvis was in the house, too. If you see one musical this year, go see “Million Dollar Quartet.” I sat in sheer joy as I was entertained and marveled how the professional talented cast not only looked and sang like the musicians, but actually played their own instruments, too. It was if we were watching Jerry Lee Lewis dazzle us on the piano along with Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and Elvis jamming on their guitars - live. Totally mind blowing. Yep, it’s safe to say that ATI has a “Million Dollar Quartet” winner right here in Carmel. The acting is superb, and trust me, everything about this production shines. Congrats to the entire cast and crew. Get your tickets today, and while you are at it, grab your tickets for ATI’s ‘Cabaret’ coming Nov. 4-20. Where’s Amy can’t wait to see you there!
Mark and Melissa Cawi (Zionsville) with ATI President Jill and Jeff Zaniker (Carmel) told Where’s Amy they were dusting up their old 45s and ready for ATI’s Million Dollar Quartet.
ATI Executive Director Jim Reilly with his lovely wife, P.J., were excited with friends Mary and Tom Waitmore to see the soldout show.

Breakfast pastry Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley It was a sad day when the powers of college football yielded to the viewer numbers of television networks and eliminated the traditional 1 p.m. Saturday start for virtually all games. Now we have Thursday and Friday night games and some 11 a.m. games on Saturday. Those early games allow us to serve breakfast before the game. If one has multiple burners on their grill, it isn’t hard to cook omelets with all sorts of ingredients. Suggestions are chopped onion, sausage, peppers, cheese, and so on. Then the cook can heat a flour tortilla on a burner and assemble a great breakfast burrito. For those tailgaters who don’t want to cook at the tailgate there is always the breakfast casserole. Please, if you are a regular reader, don’t send us emails about how we have repeated a recipe. We’ve had plenty of them in the past. Sausage pastry bake II Prep: 30 min. Bake: 30 min. Ingredients: • 2 pkgs. (12 oz. each) Johnsonville Original Breakfast Sausage Links • 1 4 oz. can chopped green chilies • 4 cups frozen shredded hash browns • 1 medium red onion, chopped • 2 Tbsp. butter • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese • 1 cup (4 ounces) shredded Swiss cheese • 1 8oz pkg. cream cheese cut into 12 even size chunks • 1/4cup minced fresh parsley • 10 eggs • 1 cup milk • 1/4 tsp. salt • 1/4 tsp. pepper

• 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed • 1 egg, lightly beaten • 1 Tbsp. water Directions: Cook sausage according to package directions and cool slightly; cut into ¼-in. slices and set aside. In a large skillet, sauté hash browns and onion in butter for 6-8 minutes, or until tender. Press hash browns and butter to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Top with cooked sausage, cheeses, chilies and parsley. In a large bowl, combine the eggs, milk, salt and pepper; then pour mixture over cheese. On a lightly floured surface, unfold pastry sheet; roll into a 13-in. x 9-in. rectangle. Place pastry over egg mixture in a small bowl; combine egg and water and brush over pastry. Cut slits in top of pastry. Bake at 400°F for 30 minutes or until set and golden brown. Take this to the game and heat it on any grill with a foil tent.

families, and that’s something we are looking for. We want a high-volume practice. We want to meet a lot of people and help people achieve optimal health. We’ve been booming so far and seeing a lot of people, so I think our marketing efforts are doing well.” Wolf said that in addition to chiropractic care, Alliance Chiropractic offers various muscle therapy techniques, nutritional and exercise counseling.

Blueprint for improvement: Upper-level remodel Commentary by Larry Greene
After solutions:
After
The goal was to create a new bathroom while also updating the overall layout of the upper level. 1. The upper level of his house had a large hallway and landing at the top of the stairs that was wasted space. We were able to use this space to improve the overall layout of the floorplan. Larger closets for both bedrooms and a full bathroom for the children were created from the unused area. 2. The master bathroom was updated to include a walk-in shower, a double vanity, herringbone floors and a linen closet. The layout was reworked to enlarge the bathroom footprint into unused attic space. 3. The kids bathroom was created from the unused landing space. It has a double vanity and tub which makes it kid-friendly. A towel cabinet for added storage and a laundry chute are unique touches to this bathroom. 4. An addition on the back of the house was created to house a mudroom. The space gave the homeowners some improved organization and functional storage.
Before Background Info: This 1930s Meridian Kessler home was in need of a serious layout rework. These homeowners were looking for more efficient use of space on their upper level.
Before problems: This home had only one bathroom on the second level and the family needed to add a second full bathroom to accommodate their children. This not only made the whole family happy to have their own spaces but also added value to the home.

Commentary by Don Knebel Senate Square is the most popular tourist destination in Helsinki, the capital of Finland. The grand statue at its center travel remembers a ruler of Russia, which exercised control over the country for more than a century. After defeating Sweden in 1809, Russia gained control of Finland and made it a duchy, with the Russian czar as duke. In 1812, Czar Alexander I moved the Finnish capital to Helsinki because of its proximity to St. Petersburg. Because much of Helsinki had been destroyed during the war, the czar engaged C. L. Engel, a German-born architect, to design a new city center to match the city’s growing importance. Engel designed a plaza known as Senate Square surrounded by neoclassical buildings, including the Government Palace, the main building of the University of Helsinki, the National Library of Finland and the Helsinki Cathedral. The cathedral, with five green domes and statues of the Twelve Apostles on its roof, was modeled after St. Isaac’s Cathedral in St. Petersburg. Completed in 1852, the cathedral is the most famous building in Finland, attracting 350,000 visitors a year.

Helsinki Cathedral and statue of Czar Alexander II . (Photo by Don Knebel)
In 1894, after Czar Alexander II was assassinated in St. Petersburg, the residents of Helsinki erected a statue of him in the middle of Senate Square to recognize his reestablishment of the Diet of Finland in 1867. The love affair with Russia was short-lived. In 1899, Czar Nicholas II began the “Russification of Finland,” cracking down on Finnish autonomy. In protest, residents of Helsinki put flowers at the feet of Alexander II, whom they considered the “good czar.” After Finland gained its independence from Russia in 1917,
some people thought keeping a Russian czar in Senate Square was inappropriate. But Helsinki residents decided to maintain the statue and plant colorful flowers at its base, continuing to honor his efforts on their behalf. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column, visit donknebel.com. You may contact him at news@currentzionsville.com.
