City employees first responders to house fire By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

Quick actions from a City of Noblesville utility worker and Noblesville Police officer prevented possible injuries or extensive damage during a residential fire. At approximately 11:04 a.m. May 24, City of Noblesville Utility Worker Brandon Phifer was in the area of Prairie Crossing Drive conducting storm water inspections, when he noticed smoke coming from a home. When Phifer went to investigate the origin of the smoke, he discovered the Phifer residence at 19546 Prairie Crossing Dr. (owned by Gregory and Tammy Cripe) was on fire. At about the time Phifer discovered the fire, Noblesville Police officer Seth Miller pulled up to the residence. Phifer informed Miller about the fire, and Miller notified the Noblesville Fire Dept. “After notification was made to the fire department, Phifer turned on a neighbor’s garden Miller hose and started to fight the fire from the exterior, while Officer Miller knocked on the front door, checking for occupants,” said NFD Division Chief Rick Russell. “Officer Miller was able to get Marley Cripe to come to the door.” Cripe, who was home from college, was upstairs sleeping and knew nothing about the fire. Russell said she escaped uninjured. At approximately 11:09 a.m., NFD crews arrived on the scene to report smoke and flames visible from the back side of the residence. Russell said fire suppression crews made an interior attack on the fire and had it under control at 11:34 a.m. Russell said the fire originated outside the home in the area where the family was cooking on the grill the night before. “In this area of fire origin, there was an outside grill chimney

ISU dean’s list – Indiana State University has announced Noblesville residents David Badger, Anna Buck, Allison Davis, Nicholas Dawson, Megan Delheimer, Lauren Gonzales, Jamie Hahn, Adam Lamirand, Alexandra Larkin, Jeffrey Pentzien, Andrew Skaggs and Benjamin Wade, and Courtney Leeman of Cicero were named to the dean’s list for the spring semester.

starter,” he said. “The grill chimney starter had remains of heated wood chips that were used for cooking the night before. The container was next to the home, in the mulch.” The fire caused approximately $35,000 damage. There were no injuries or deaths. Hinkle Creek Friends Church, 21617 Hinkle Rd., in Noblesville celebrated its 175th anniversary last year, but the tale of the congregation begins all the way back in 1833. Settlers began moving into the Deming community at that time and homesteaded much of the land in this area. In 1905, remodeling of the building began following a revival service by Evangelist Carrie Taylor (pictured). During that remodeling, the Meeting House’s wall, which ran through the center of the room and divided worship areas between men and women and children, was removed. The candles that lit the church were replaced with coal oil lights and heating stoves were installed on both sides of the building. The old obscure glass windows were replaced with stained glass.

Half-time asst. principals to join elementary school staffs editorial@youarecurrent.com

The Noblesville Board of School Trustees has approved the appointment of half-time assistant principals at Noblesville’s elementary schools. The assistant principals will divide their duties between administration and classroom instruction. Asst. Supt. Steve Stephanoff said the additional staff is necessary because of changes in Indiana law regarding the frequency of teacher evaluations. Appointments are effective July 1. Noblesville Schools’ Professional Evaluation Program now requires short observations of all teachers at least once per semester but three times a year, extended observations at least once per semester and a formal evaluation of teachers at least once a year. Teachers who have been with Noblesville Schools for only one or two years are both observed and evaluated more frequently. Previously, some teachers were evaluated every two to three years. Appointments at the elementary schools include: Hinkle Creek – Julie Griffey Griffey was appointed assistant principal at Hinkle Creek Elementary School a year ago. She will become a full-time assistant principal beginning with the 2012-13 school year as Hinkle Creek grows to almost 900 students.

She received her bachelor’s degree in elementary education from Indiana Wesleyan University and her master’s degree in educational leadership and administration from Indiana State University. She began her teaching career in Shelbyville. She has been in Avon since 1999, first as a teacher and later as a literacy coach. Noble Crossing – Mary Beth Riley

SMC Corporation of Americas headquarters is located at 10100 SMC Blvd., Noblesville

Three years after mooving to Noblesville, SMC plans $19M expansion and continued job creation By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com Three years ago, SMC Corporation of America moved from 30th Street and Franklin Road in Indianapolis. The relocation was an important economic move to the city, as SMC had looked outside of Indiana to relocate its North American corporate headquarters. After moving to Noblesville, SMC consolidated its facilities in Canada and Los Angeles. “We were busting at the seams,” explained Director of Operations Kelley Stacy. “We were totally out of space.” SMC is the largest private employer in the City of Noblesville. Stacy In 2008, the company had 458 employees in its $30-million, 627,500-square-foot building. In September, the company purchased approximately $5.5 million worth of new equipment as employment increased to 610 people. “We had no intention of expanding this soon,” said Stacy. “It is a surprise, but within our plan.” This summer, the Japanese company is expanding its facility at 10100 SMC Blvd. by 600,000 square feet. Officials said the expansion cost is approximately $19 million. The 600,000-square-foot addition will be constructed at both the east and west sides of the current building. Chad Bosler, director of production at SMC, said 360,000 square feet would be used for production space and 240,000 square feet would be for warehousing. “We have 900,000 square feet under roof now, and after the addition, it will be 1.5 million square feet,” Bosler said. As part of the construction, Bosler said SMC plans to add 163 new jobs by 2017. He said the average wage with benefits for those posi10 | June 5, 2012

tions would be $62,732 per year. “We need to expand (the) facility to keep inventory in one place,” Stacy said. Construction began in May and will be completed by September, just in time for the company’s October meeting, which will include 200 customers from Europe, Brazil and other nations. “It’s very important to them (customers) to see our facility,” Stacy said. SMC is a global pneumatic technology developer and manufacturer. Chief Operating Officer Yoshiki Takada explained most of SMC’s products use compressed air pneumatics to automate production. “There are tons of uses, and Takada we find more every day,” he said. “You don’t see it, but it is used every day. We are in every single industry.” Some of the industries most utilizing SMC products are medicine, food and packaging, manufacturing and distribution, chillers – and most recently, the mining industry. Takada said SMC has 600,000 variations of its products and was just named best supplier by GE Medical. With the leadership of Stacy and Takada, the company aspires to reach $1 billion in annual sales and double the company’s market share in the coming years. A global traveler, Takada said he enjoys how laid back and friendly Noblesville residents and Midwesterners are. “They have very good work ethics,” he said. “There are nice people here.” SMC employs 130 engineers in Noblesville and is working with Noblesville Schools and Mayor John Ditslear’s Community Vision for Excellence to better prepare tomorrow’s workforce. “We believe manufacturing is big and needs

to be taught,” Takada said. “Kids need to be engineers, so we bring them here,” added Stacy. “We need good engineers modifying products.” The Workforce Development Council’s mission is to prepare a workforce ready to immediately and positively contribute in today’s business environment. SMC provides a Career Week with engineering, accounting, human resources and information technology departments participating so all students understand what it is expected in the workplace – especially attendance and being on time. SMC also has students intern during the summer. “They’re (students) learning and it’s great for both of us,” said Stacy. “It’s our job because we know what we are getting from schools.” Plant Manager Chris Abriani has worked for SMC since two days after he graduated from Indiana State University. “Everyone likes working here,” he said. “It’s a healthy company that’s growing.” Abriani explained SMC’s warehouse is divided into two areas – manufacturing and distribution. He said 10 percent of what SMC sells is manufactured in Noblesville. The rest is imported from SMC locations across the world, stored and sent to distributors. Abriani said SMC’s products are not sold directly, but through distributors and Amazon.com. The manufacturing side, which houses more

Current in Noblesville

than 40,000 part numbers, specializes in modifying standard products. “We’re a very customized facility and we deal with very small order sizes,” said Abriani. “There’s a lot of training on how to build specialties … we see something different every order.”

The Expansion

◆ Cost: Approximately $19 million. ◆ Size: 600,000 square feet – 360,000 square feet for production and 240,000 square feet for warehousing. ◆ Timetable: Construction began in May and will be completed by September. ◆ Impact: SMC plans to add 163 new jobs by 2017 with the space increase. ◆ Financing: SMC received a 10-year tax phase-in by the Noblesville Common Council. The terms of the tax phase-in allow SMC to gradually pay taxes on its construction while the city receives property taxes on land that would otherwise be undeveloped. In the first year, no money is collected. The phase-in gradually increases from $26,289 in the second year to $499,498 in the 10th and final year. Noblesville will collect $2,655,224 during the 10-year phase-in. SMC will save $2,602,646 in property taxes with the phase-in. www.currentnoblesville.com

VIEWS

Opinion Pick up phone, find an event

The traffic games It is our position that arterial roadways need sensors installed at all traffic signals. Road improvements during the past decade have been phenomenal, and despite a growing population, congestion has been brilliantly curbed through lane expansions, roundabouts and simply good planning. What remains frustrating for motorists are traffic signals on the less traveled roads, where sensors have not been installed to operate the signals properly. They exist all over, but just to give one example of unnecessary congestion, it’s not uncommon to see a long line of cars eastbound on Smokey Row at the Gray Road signal waiting many minutes at a time while there is no traffic at all on Gray Road – which is also absent a right turn lane where there appears to be room for the installation of one. As traffic increases and efficiency also increases on major thoroughfares, we have to be mindful of what it can do to local intersections. While we demand infrastructure improvement, we must also be patient, as we do not want to put a large amount of expenditures on ourselves in these uncertain times. We must look at these improvements as investments in the cities and towns in which we live and ultimately the value of the properties within them.

Shift into neutral

Commentary by Terry Anker

The Indiana Humanities statewide organization’s mantra is “Think. Read. Talk.” It sets out to provide Hoosiers with opportunities to do just that – and in my view, it succeeds hands down. Recently, in collaboration with the Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana Humanities brought celebrated and award-winning journalist Jim Lehrer to speak to an assembled crowd on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Not only did the sponsoring entities provide a pleasant and encouraging setting for participants to commune with other inquiring minds, but also Lehrer delivered an open and, at times, poignant dialogue about his years in the public eye and the changing morays of the American media-consuming public. Lehrer reported that, “Exhibiting absolute neutrality while showing judgment in deciding what the issues are,” is an essential ingredient in reporting. I was reminded of the famous closing line of another venerable newsman, Walter Cronkite, with his “and, that’s the way it is.”

Does this statement lead one to believe the maxim of “absolute neutrality”? Can one both filter and package the news at the same time as one claims to be impartial in its conveyance? News delivery entities have tremendous power. But while much of it is derived from what is seen on television or written on the pages of papers like this one, isn’t more power derived from what is withheld from public view? If Cronkite, Lehrer and others are deciding what is news and what is not, aren’t they determining what’s “the way it is”? Don’t they become a maker of history as much as they are a reporter of it? Can anyone hope to be “absolutely neutral”? And, do we really want them to be? Wouldn’t a superior approach be one where biases, political and otherwise, are simply known to all? Isn’t absolutely honest better than absolutely neutral?

The city has restored an easy way to find diversions this summer, and it’s as simple as “reaching out and touching someone” – or, at least a recording. In addition to the City of Noblesville’s Web site, Facebook page and Twitter feeds, residents can now call the Summer Events Line at 770-2020 for scheduled city events as well as any weather-related event cancelations. This phone line provides a recording, updated weekly, that includes information about city events such as the Summer Concert Series, Movies in the Park, the July 4th Festival, and more. In addition, if an event is canceled or postponed due to weather, the recording will be changed to announce that. “The Summer Events Line provides an easy way to find out about city-sponsored or co-sponsored events,” Mayor John Ditslear stated. “One of the biggest benefits of the phone line is that if you do not have immediate access to a computer but want to know if an event is canceled or postponed due to weather, you can call and find out instantly.” It’s a great idea, and we urge you to avail yourselves of it.

Recently, we posted notice here of the need for volunteers. There’s still time to pitch in to make for another memorable event.

Humor

United parental front Commentary by Danielle Wilson My husband and I started to get into it the other day; he accused me of undermining his parenting. But having learned my lesson from a recent argument, I calmly suggested we revisit the matter when he was in a better place (work had him majorly stressed) and I had reined in the urge to rip him a new one. But later, after I’d had some time to think about it, I realized he may have been right. Ugh. I hate it when he’s right. See what you think. For the past two summers, Doo has been dying to gets our kids up on water skis. His family has owned a lake cottage for nearly a century, and he grew up spending vacations in northern Indiana. The first go-round we had low expectations, and we were happy that a couple of our children gave it a try. Last year, however, Doo was adamant that each of them would at least make an attempt, and was disappointed when only our youngest managed to get up and semi-enjoy the experience. Our three older ones never tried again and have declined any further incentive, including cold hard cash and first saved in a house fire. So when Doo announced that he was going to make all of them ski this summer come hell or high water, I responded with a “Well, I’m not

going to let you force them.” Then he got mad and called me an underminer, and here we are. I’ve written about this dilemma before. Under what circumstances do you make a kid try something, even when they aren’t interested or are too scared? I’m of the opinion that water skiing isn’t that big of deal. Who cares if they ever learn at all? But I also don’t share my husband’s beloved memories of growing up on a lake. If having our kids water ski is that important to Doo, shouldn’t it be important to me too? Regardless, we need to get on the same page and soon. We can disagree in private, but when we act in front of our kids, we need to present a unified front. That’s where the undermining comes into play, and the one thing that our kids pick up on immediately. They are truly pros at exploiting conflicting parental decisions. And Lord knows we’re already at a disadvantage number-wise; we can’t give them anymore ammunition! Summer is here my friends, and we must stand our ground. Peace out.

Fuller lips; Injectible filler Commentary by Dr. Barry Eppley Q: My upper lip is substantially smaller than my lower lip. I have had several consultations and the recommendations have ranged from injectable fillers, to implants, to a lip lift. I am confused by these conflicting recommendations. A: As you have discovered, there are a variety of lip enhancement procedures. In the end, they all have the same objective – making the pink vermilion of the lips more pronounced (increased vertical height and fullness). These procedures range from minimally invasive to surgical. As a general rule, most patients should start with injectable fillers, because this treatment is the simplest and is completely reversible. An injectable filler can tell you whether the existing size of your vermilion can be adequately inflated to achieve the look you want. If it does, then you can ponder whether fat injections or implants may be a better long-term solution. If expanding the existing vermilion is inadequate or produces an undesired look (duck lips), then the location of the vermilion needs to be removed. This is where vermilion advancements and lip lifts have a role to change the vermilion-skin junction and the amount of lip skin. Q: I am a 34-year-old woman who has had two children. I am done having children and Run it out – Psoriasis is the most common autoimmune disease. But a recent study showed that women who got the equivalent of 105 minutes of running at a 6 mph pace each week had a 30 to 40 percent lower risk of developing the disease later on in life. - www.webmd. com

want to address the damage done to my breasts by pregnancy and breast-feeding. I want breast implants, but I don’t want a breast lift. I don’t want the scars from the lift, but I would be OK with small hidden scars. Is that reasonable? A: Unfortunately, there is a significant difference between what you need for a good breast result and what you want. You are not alone in this position, as many women need a breast lift but don’t want the scars. Too much sagging makes it difficult to get a good result using breast implants alone. In fact, implants without a lift is going to make your breasts look worse, not better. They will create a mound above the current level of your hanging breast tissue and will merely end up placing your nipple on the bottom half of the implants. It will just be trading into a different type of breast deformity. If you are not ready to accept scars as of yet, you can always have breast implants first and see if the results are acceptable. But ultimately, a breast lift is in your future if you want to make a significant breast appearance improvement. Dr. Eppley is an Indianapolis board-certified plastic surgeon.

Locally grown

By Christian Sorrell • christian@youarecurrent.com It was only 8 a.m., but already the Monon Greenway located between Carmel’s Palladium and Studio Theater bustled with the life and excitement of the Carmel Farmers Market. More than 60 local vendors readied their booths and were already taking orders. The range of items available was a bit overwhelming at first. It took my fiance and me two trips around all of the booths before we began to decide what to buy. We sampled Banana Butter by Preservation, whose booth was filled with jams and jellies of all kinds; Chocolate Mint Tea by Kei Tea, which was delicious and refreshing as the day’s heat continued to build; and Chicken, Red Grape and Cashew Salad by Daily Farms, which we couldn’t help but take home with us after tasting. Soon after our arrival, the crisp sound of live

music made its way from the Carmel Rotary Amphitheater in the middle of the greenway. After running into a friend who was volunteering for the market that morning, my fiance and I picked up a massive (and delicious) cinnamon roll for just $3 from Lisa’s Pies and took a seat near the band. Witch Hazel Valley People, one of many local bands scheduled to play throughout the farmers market’s five-month run, played a wonderful

All local farmers markets are taking place weekly now through the fall. For more details regarding the Carmel Farmers Market, Noblesville Farmers Market, Westfield Farmers Market, Saxony Market and Zionsville’s Brick Street Market, please see the Event Calendar on Page 17.

The Carmel Farmers Market serves up fresh food and great entertainment brand of nostalgic country tunes richly supported by a wide variety of eclectic percussion instruments and a number of different vocalists. The band’s antiquated sound added to the atmosphere of the market, something that feels strangely old-fashioned in its own way. Children ran and played among the tables and throughout the greenway as the crowd continued to grow. In the end, the farmers market experience was a wonderful and unique one. It felt like a relic of the past blended perfectly with a forward-thinking sense of local responsibility and self-support. It had all of the fun and fanfare of a summer festival coupled with the affordability and ease of a trip to the grocery store. Where else can you buy a cinnamon roll from the woman who baked it, pick up some produce to take home, meet up with your friends and neighbors, take in great live music and still make it home before noon?

It’s tIme to Cut Loose!

NIGHT & DAY Film review ‘Indie Game: The Movie’ showcases style and emotion in a growing industry

UGLY ROOF STAINS?

Commentary by Christian Sorrell Since first making its debut at the 2012 Sundance film festival, “Indie Game: The Movie” has been taking the documentary scene by storm. Rave reviews for the film have been making the rounds for months, but unfortunately, most screenings were being held only at largescale film festivals outside the Midwest. The film was finally brought to Indiana and the Indianapolis Museum of Art’s Toby Theater thanks to the Indianapolis International Film Festival. The film, captured by Canadian first-time filmmakers Lisanne Pajot and James Swirsky, follows the designers of a game titled “Super Meat Boy.” After two years of devoted and painstaking work, their game is on the eve of its release. Another developer Phil Fish and his game “FEZ” have been plagued with problems since the project began. After being delayed for a number of years, the film shows Fish’s latest progress in what he hopes to be his life’s work. Lastly, Jonathan Blow, creator of the indie mega hit “Braid,” describes what it was like to find success and how he plans to continue to create in the aftermath. “Indie Game: The Movie” is an extremely well made documentary that peers into the unique area of the art and entertainment industries that are video games. Through the struggles of these

“Indie Game: The Movie” is available now for preorder on Steam, iTunes and VHX Direct Download at indiegamethemovie.com. The film will be released for home viewing on June 12.

independent game developers, we see that, like all great artists, they have devoted themselves entirely to their creation and that, above all, they create in order to express themselves better than they are able through traditional means. Whether you are a gamer yourself or just someone with a love of creativity and devotion on display, “Indie Game: The Movie” will speak to both your heart and your mind about the monumental task of making something all on your own.

DOUGH

Business

Stable change

Commentary by David Cain

Building anything great takes momentum and perseverance. While change is always necessary, changing in the middle of building can be the end of an idea or, at least, short-circuit success. Let’s say you come up with a strategy or concept and then you begin building. As you are moving along, you continue to change your mind and tinker with it. With each tinker, momentum is lost. Whether you are building a house, building a cake or building a brand, each requires that you focus on execution and implementation. Ongoing change can lead to ongoing unraveling of any momentum you have. The easiest analogy to building a brand or simply capitalizing on a great idea is the development of a house. First, you have to find the perfect lot. Second, you have to conceive and design something that fits your lot and lifestyle. Third, you have to make decisions and then follow the process of building until it is all done. Changing your mind in the middle only derails things.

Some ideas take time to gain speed and be successful. All too often it’s easy to change course if success isn’t instant. And, even when success is immediate, it’s easy to fall in the trap of continuing to change in search of greater success. Funny thing about change – you can’t live with it and you can’t live without it. You can’t build with change; you can’t grow without it. It’s a fine line. While it takes a commitment to innovate and potentially change directions, it is equally important to remember that true leadership can often require you to stay the course and give ideas the opportunity to be successful. Leaders that continually change, tinker and tweak without giving some time for execution and implementation will never see ideas realize their full potential.

Don’t overthink it – If you're looking to buy some auto stocks, the best bets right now are old standbys GM or Ford. GM keeps the market share in both China and the U.S., and Ford is further along in its recovery from the financial crisis. - dailyfinance.com

Thursday night concert time Commentary By Don Seal

Get ready to rock as free summer entertainment has begun at Noblesville Parks. Our 19th season of Thursday night concerts started last week at Dr. James A. Dillon Park. This Thursday at Dillon, Indy’s “Hottest Party Band,” the Aberdeen Project, will present their show from the park’s mobile stage on Dillon’s east events lawn. The Aberdeen Project is a six-member group of fun-loving music fans that has been performing in the Indianapolis area since October 2003. They specialize in all the old-school and newschool favorites, ranging from funk and R&B to jazz and rock ‘n’ roll. The concert will be presented in two sets, beginning at 7 p.m. and ending at 9 p.m. Between sets, there will be a free raffle with fabulous prizes, which is a highlight of every Thursday night concert. The Dillon concert on June 14 will feature the always-popular Zanna-Doo. The band has eight members including three female vocalists. According to Tom Griswald of the Bob and Tom radio show, “Zanna-Doo is one of the finest party bands in the country. Their live performances display a staggering combination of musicianship, energy and of showmanship. Zanna-Doo plays a non-stop array of great songs spanning 40 years of pop and rock music, anchored by a massive dose of contemporary hits. In three hours they never stop and the crowd never sits down. In short … these guys rock … and the girls rock even more!” The concerts are presented by the City of Noblesville, the Legacy Fund, Tri Kappa Sorority and the Noblesville Parks and Recreation Dept. with stage banners contributed by Logan Street Signs and Banners. Concert goers can bring in their own refreshments and picnic on the lawn

Offering Comprehensive, NON-DILATED exams Sun-worshipping plants: knockout rose, knee-high Russian sage, blue junipers and moonbeam coreopsis.

Don't fight the site with landscaping Have you ever noticed there seems to be an abundance of yews and boxwood in residential landscapes? Lots of knockout roses, lilies and ornamental grasses, too. Why is that? They are survivors! Right plant/right place While most of us like the idea of fiddling in our landscape beds, the reality is that time and sore knees prompt us to prefer low-maintenance plantings or a service that handles those irritants for us. Growers are responding with beauties that require little pruning, no special ointments and limited watering. The most critical element of our low maintenance dream is planting the right plant in the right place. Contrary to popular practice, burning bushes that mature at 10-feet-by-10-feet have no place squeezed by the front door. Also, Riverbirch trees planted three feet off the corner of the house will eventually need lots of heavy pruning. Don’t fight the site This is one of my favorite sayings and refers to Careful – Vinyl siding is known for its durability, but it’s not indestructible. It still needs washing to maintain its life, and you’d be amazed at how many people weaken it by grilling too close to an exterior wall. - almanac.com

the simplicity of marrying soil conditions with plant preferences. Got a back yard swale that tends to hold water and stay moist for a while? There is a thriving list of plants that would love for you to adopt them (trees: maples, serviceberry, honey locust, swamp oak. shrubs: chokerry, summersweet, viburnums, bayberry). A quick Google search will offer a healthy list for just about any condition, but check with your local landscape dude for confirmation. Yes, there are other evergreens besides yews and boxwood. When site conditions allow, it’s difficult to beat the glossy intrigue of a princess holly that produces clusters of colorful red berries in the late fall and winter. Just remember to choose the “right plant for the right place” and “don’t fight the site.”

Indoors

Here come the tiles Commentary by David Decker

With spring flowers come new … showers – at least when it concerns thoughts of renovating an older space to give the house a fresh or new feel. Many think the kitchen or the bathroom is the best place to begin, as those rooms typically see the most daily use and foot traffic, and therefore set the tone for the overall feel of the home. I recently had the opportunity to attend the 2012 “Coverings” showcase event in Orlando, which brings thousands of vendors and manufacturers together to showcase their newest product lines and innovative ideas when it comes to tile, flooring and other unique surface options. We are seeing larger square or rectangular tiles taking over the market in lieu of the smaller style that we here in Indiana have gotten accustomed to in the design sense. This more rectangular contemporary choice is giving way to tile and floor coverings that mimic the look and feel of real wood, which is ideal for those homeowners who love the look of a distressed floor that is more durable and water friendly in rooms such as the laundry room or bathroom. Matching adornments such as colorful glass mosaics and trim complete the sleek look and can instantly update your space. If you still are one to lean toward a more tra-

ditional feel and are not ready to take the leap toward a modern decor scheme, the good news is that the digital printing process of making the faux stone tiles that we commonly see has come a long way, and one almost has to feel and touch the tile to see if it is in fact real stone. This makes for a cost-effective alternative and very impressive installation. Whether it is modern and fashion forward you are seeking or just a small update to your current comfort style, it is always recommended that you gather some ideas and pictures of your vision and head to a professional, as they can save you money, time and of course provide direction to make the process as smooth as the new lines of tile themselves. David Decker is president of the Affordable Companies, which include Affordable Kitchens and Bathrooms and now Affordable Custom Flooring. They are based in Carmel (575-9540, www.theaffordablecompanies.com). E-mail home improvement questions to david.decker@theaffordablecompanies.com.
