Westfield shares its goals for Grand Park indoor facility

By Adam Aasen “ PSP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Westfield saw nearly a million visitors come to Grand Park Sports Complex in 2015. For 2016 and beyond, city leaders exDEVELOPMENT pect even better numbers, partly due to the new $20-million-plus indoor facility, the Grand Park Events Center, which opened in July. The new private-public partnership has space for a variety of youth sports and features three full-sized soccer fields. In September, it was announced that Max Lax, based in Westfield, will become the official indoor lacrosse provider for the facility, and Grand Park Events Center will be the home for the lacrosse league with fall and winter programs. Force Barbell will run the youth training area and workout facility at the events center. It is already the corporate headquarters for the Indiana Soccer Association.

Westfield Deputy Mayor Todd Burtron gave a behind-the-scenes tour to the Hamilton County Leadership Academy last month.

The space was originally planned as a 60,000-square-foot indoor facility but now covers 370,000 square feet. Holladay Properties built the events center and leased it to the City of Westfield for the next 25 years. Subleased tenants will help the city pay annual rent, which starts at $1.97 million and escalates every five years.

The events center is still filling up its available space for retail and office tenants, but Burtron said Adidas will have a partnership and a presence. He’s in talks with an organization that does “American Ninja Warrior�-type activities for children.

Indoor soccer and lacrosse are the most popular uses for the indoor fields, but Burtron said they are pretty flexible.

Before the facility officially opened, it was the location for a Donald Trump presidential campaign rally that drew more than 8,000 visitors.

Corporate events also are a big part of the plan, Burtron said, with companies renting the space for indoor picnics, soccer events, kickball tournaments and more. Events like the Home Show could become regulars inside the facility. “I don’t know if we’re going to be friends with the Indiana State Fairgrounds much longer be-

DISPATCHES Ten-digit dialing delayed - The start of mandatory 10-digit dialing has been postponed in Indiana. Originally, the new dialing policy was scheduled to be effective Sept. 17. This date has been moved back to Oct. 15. Student Impact Basketball registration now open – Until Oct. 31, seventh through 12th graders can register for Student Impact Basketball. Registration is completed at therockwestfield.org/sports.

cause people are looking at us now,� he said.

The events center is also home to much of the catering operations for Jonathan Byrd’s. The company has exclusive rights for the venue, which features private rooms and luxury suites for guests. There’s an upstairs lounge called The Nest which features TVs, a full-service bar with local beers and an elevated view of the fields.

Downstairs, Jonathan Byrd’s Restaurant has more of a food court feel. The restaurant has regular hours throughout the week.

Executive Chef Anthony Armstrong said his son was involved in travel soccer for years and he saw what was happening at Grand Park. “I thought, ‘Somebody is going to do very well up here because they need some places to eat,’� he said. “And now we’re the ones providing that service for the community.�

In November 2015, Westfield selected Jonathan Byrd’s to develop a five-story, 180-room hotel adjacent to the events center.

Burtron said he knows there have been critics of the costs associated with the events center and Grand Park as a whole, but he said Westfield had to do something to create an industry because, “You just can’t raise enough on home taxes alone.� In total, he said the city has calculated more than $100 million in economic development due to Grand Park. “There’s a merit to saying Rome wasn’t built in a day,� he said. “Since Grand Park has opened up, we can calculate about $70 million in additional assessed valuation.�

Fireside tales – Fireside Tales will begin again starting 6:30 to 8 p.m. Oct. 12 and Oct. 26. Stories are geared toward younger children and involve harvest and animal stories.

It’s not just for Fishers. We encourage all of Hamilton County to come out and support the local Humane Society and the Survivor Program.�

From 2 to 9 p.m., the amphitheater will be loaded with food vendors, along with animal shows presented by Animalia, Fishers Police Dept. K-9 Barry, face painting, paw painting and more. In previous years, more than 100 vendors have attended the festival.

Meet your teacher: Michelle Baker Grade/subject/school: Third grade, Monon Trail Elementary School.

Number of years teaching: Eight.

Background/education: Noblesville High School; B.S. in business; Indiana University; M.A. teaching, Marian University.

Why did you become a teacher? “I had always wanted to be a teacher when I was younger, and I found a fantastic program that allowed me to pursue this dream. I want my students to leave this classroom thinking, ‘I can do anything I want with my life.’ I want to provide a positive influence for students and to continue to be there for students at any point in their lives.�

What goals do you have for your students? “After graduating from high school, I want my students to have every opportunity to pursue a life goal. Staying strong in school will afford students that opportunity, and it will then be their choice what to do.�

What do you encourage parents to do at home to help their children strengthen particular skills? “Play outside, Baker spend family time together playing board games, card games and participating in family activities. Have children help preparing meals. Eat meals together. Talk as a family. Read as a family.�

What’s something your students might not know about you? “Growing up, my family would drive to Florida for an affordable vacation, because we could stay with family. We didn’t have the money to fly, and our biggest car was a hatchback. There weren’t enough seats for me to sit in the actual back seat, so my dad installed a seat belt in the hatchback, and there I sat, sitting backwards, driving 24 hours to Florida, in a hot hatchback with no air conditioner. Oh, and the dog was with me, too.�

12 collect Lantern Awards

By Anna Skinner “ P]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Westfield residents and employees filled the Palomino Ballroom on Sept. 23 to recognize the recipients of the annual EVENT Westfield Chamber of Commerce Lantern Awards presentation.

Various awards were presented, and for the first time, there were two Wick Awards for volunteer of the year, as well as the creation of the President’s Award.

Dennis Hays, the recipient of the Exemplary Employee Award, received a standing ovation from the crowd and a presentation by Mayor Andy Cook. Hays has worked with the city for 14 years and serves as the ground maintenance laborer in the Public Works Dept. “You have seen Dennis out there on the streets, and you’re going to see him again,�

Cook said during his presentation. “I ask you to do this. If it’s safe, roll down your window and say ‘thanks, Dennis.’�

Cook also presented awards to Michael Sherley of the Westfield Fire Dept. and Billy

Adams of the Westfield Police Dept.

Angie Edwards and Courtney Nichols tied for the Wick Award, and chamber president Jack Russell presented Eric Lohe with the President’s Award for his involvement in the chamber over the years. “This will be something implemented this year ongoing,� Tom Dooley, chairman of the board of directors, said. “It will be for someone on our board of directors because we normally don’t recognize our board of directors.

A lot of hard work and a lot of time goes into serving on the board. This individual has been our chamber president in the past, led the economic development group and provided most of the technology we have used for our chamber. He has done it without ever asking for anything and without ever saying no.�

The chamber chooses a lantern to represent the awards in honor of Westfield’s Quaker background and history with the Underground Railroad.

B RING ING BAC K T HE A RT S Skelton aims to make it a staple in Westfield

By Anna Skinner “ P]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Teresa Skelton has a passion for events, and when that fuses with her love of the arts, it heralds an interesting future for the Westfield Arts Alliance. The organiCOVER STORY zation was established in 2013 under the umbrella of the Downtown Westfield Association. Skelton serves as the executive director for the DWA. The WAA is responsible for much of the public art throughout Westfield, such as the Red Man statue near Main and Union streets, and the large mural on the north side of Union Flowers and Gifts. Lately, however, the WAA has veered toward performance art. “My passion is for events and certainly all about downtown Westfield. I’ve lived five different places on the same street (in Westfield),� Skelton said. “I’m very passionate about Westfield, particularly downtown, and I love seeing the changes and evolution taking place. The arts alliance, in particular, I sort of inherited that because of my theater background. I’ve got a passion for all kinds of arts, and I like to see that being on the forefront. I think that’s an area we lack in our downtown. We don’t have a lot of public arts displays.�

One of Skelton’s initiatives this year is the inaugural Bottle and Books, a poetry reading at the Rail Epicurean Market in February. Visitors listened to original readings and notable works from the past. “Bottle and Books was something I felt very passionate about,� Skelton said. “They had discussions on poetry before me. I thought, ‘That’s a good winter thing,’ and I did it in February. I would like this group to take on those things a little bit more. I like us to have resolutions to the ideas that come forth.

I think this group needs to be empowered. I think that would be really good, so there’s a presence and responsibility of this group that they take ownership in these projects. I’d like to see more of those kind of things.�

Recently, the Heart and Soul Clinic approached the WAA and pitched an idea for the group to judge the creations of a new logo sent in from the community. WAA member and artist Linda Lutes suggested reaching out to local schools. “The only reason I knew what (WAA) could become is as an

art teacher in Carmel, I know what the arts do for us in Carmel, so that’s what I would like to see this become more of,� Lutes said. “I would like to see more outreach into the community. I participated in the poetry reading, and I loved that. It was so awesome. It’s just another outlet.�

Lutes creates dichroic, or fused, glass. She has been doing so for approximately 12 years. Other members of the WAA include artists such as John Sampson, president of the Westfield Playhouse, Erin O’Rear, owner of The Wandering Peacock in downtown Westfield, and others. Not all members are artists,

but all have a passion for the arts. “I’m working with some people on spots for public arts displays I think would work,� Skelton said of the organization’s plans for the future. “Stuff that says, ‘Hey, we are here.’ I think it’s great we have Grand Park. I love it, and I’m glad it’s here.

It’s great for our community, but I want to also promote our downtown. Now, I would like to see the arts and culture have a presence.�

DEBATE FOLLOWUP As a journalist, Holt failed us

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Peter Funt Before taking his seat at Monday night’s presidential debate, Lester Holt confided to the audience in the hall that his knees were shaking. Ninety minutes later, shaky would be an overly kind way to describe Holt’s performance as moderator. Putting aside any judgment of which candidate fared better, or how the event might affect voters’ opinions, Holt faced one of the most difficult tasks in modern journalism and came up short. Holt asked 14 questions (plus a few interjections and short follow-ups). Of those, seven were generic, policy-based inquiries, asked of both candidates. Six were specifically directed at Donald Trump, regarding things he has said and done. Only one such specific question, and a gentle one at that, was asked of Hillary Clinton. Journalistically, that’s not even close to the standard trashed regularly

by Fox News: fair and balanced. How the respected anchorman managed to fumble as he did is not particularly mysterious. Following sharp criticism of his NBC colleague Matt Lauer in the so-called “Commander-inChief� one-on-one, where Lauer challenged Clinton repeatedly while allowing Trump to get away with distortions, The next event uses a “town hall� format, with two moderators, so it is likely that prospects for a real debate are dim. This time, though, the nice guy finished last.

Doormats and doorbells

Commentary by Terry Anker

“You have let yourself become such a doormat,� someone once proclaimed. Don’t let people take advantage is likely what was intended. Certainly the lowly doormat stands at the ready to clean the feet of arriving visitors and family members alike. It catches the mud and grime of street life and prepares the entrant for a cleaner and more orderly transition to sanctum sanctorum.

Among higher order devices that greet us at the front door is the doorbell, glowing as a beacon ever ready to proclaim a visitor crying out with melodious chime heralding that a traveler has arrived upon our threshold. One could imagine that the porchlight, mat and stoop must see the doorbell as the most admired.

Like doormats and doorbells, our society tends to praise those among us who are shiny and whose tone is presently the most fair. Contemporaneously, we ignore or decry the many contributions of those who serve quietly, consistently and with little fanfare.

Each day they present themselves to provide for all, foreign visitor and domestic resident alike. They stand at the ready to meet each challenge with elegant simplicity and lack of complication.

While both devices adorn the passage into our homes, which is indispensable?

Which serves the greater purpose? The doorbell can be substituted with any number of methods to accomplish its intended purpose. Simply rapping one’s knuckles against the door could work. Every child knows that knock, knock is followed by who’s there?

Perhaps a visitor could call or text. But without the mat, the line between in and out is blurred. The day’s debris gushes in. Aren’t we better off with a few more doormats and a few less doorbells? But, can our egos take the realization?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others. – Ayn Rand

Every so often I get the chance to play Supermom. Inevitably, it happens when my husband Doo is MIA and I’m opHUMOR erating on little to no sleep, but I always seem to come through.

This morning was one of those times. I actually saved the day twice!

My first Wonder Woman moment came at approximately 7 a.m. I had just returned from dropping my color guard daughter off for a competition when I realized she had left her undergarments behind. I texted her but received no response. Luckily I had to go right back over to get her cross country brother to his meet, so I decided to kill two birds with one stone. Boy deposited, I drove around to the front of the school, only to discover 10 identical buses about to pull out for Ohio. With no parking spots nearby, I ran a red light, ditched the car across the street, and then sprinted barefoot the 100 meters to the soon-departing caravan. It occurred to me that I was barefoot and still wearing pajamas.

Thinking only of my poor daughter having to toss rifles without a bra, I began interrogating far more pulled-together parents as to the whereabouts of “the guard bus.�

Eventually I found it, deposited the goods, and walked back to my car, feeling very Linda Carter-like, albeit less braceleted and a little more homeless looking.

The second call for help came through not more than 10 minutes after I was home.

Here’s the exact text conversation that transpired: XC son: What time are you coming to my meet?

Me: I’ll be there for your race. Why? XC son: I may have left something.

Me: OMG. Did you forget your shoes?

XC son: Maybe.

Sweet mercy! Clearly my children will not be joining me in the League of Justice. I did manage to squeeze in a shower and actually don footwear before hopping into my notso-invisible minivan and solving the second crisis of the day. And all before 10 a.m., thank you very much.

Am I Wonder Woman? Nope. Just the occasional Supermom.

Peace out.

If I hadn’t gotten lost on the way to the entry exam, the people at Mensa might have made me a member. I tried a HUMOR second time, but I got a flat and I have no idea how to use the jack. Otherwise, I’d be in Mensa. Believe me.

I’m sure you can’t get in Mensa if you can’t follow movies. At home, while Mary Ellen and I watch a flick, she answers emails and does Sudoku puzzles, but still manages to understand exactly what is going on. I have to keep asking my wife if those are the good guys or the bad guys.

I don’t want my wife to think I am not watching carefully, so if I doze off and suddenly wake up. I begin laughing to show her I am paying attention. That proved to be a mistake when I fell asleep during Blazing Saddles and didn’t realize Mary Ellen had switched to a Civil War documentary.

Let’s pass some sensible bipartisan legislation that deals with the following criminal acts by movie-makers: “ Flashbacks – If there’s a flashback, let’s have a big sign in the theater lobby that says: Flashback at 7:37 p.m. and 8:42 p.m.

Sometimes I sit through a whole movie

confused, until my wife says, “Dick, that was a flashback.� Okay, now I want my money back. “ Dream sequences – This is when a character either dreams or imagines something on the screen. In the old days when a person was having a dream, you got this campy music and the picture dissolved to show the actor had fallen asleep. I guess special effects are hard to do nowadays. “ Prequels and sequels – Years ago while watching the first Star Wars movie, my son informed me that they made the second episode first. “On purpose?� I asked. “You’d think with 500 people on the production set, someone would say, “Hey, wait a second, we forgot to do Part I!�

I still go to the movie theater with my wife.

I don’t mind paying $1 to get in, 25 cents for a bag of popcorn and 10 cents for a Coke.

By the way, that was a flashback.

SHRIMP DELICATO Submitted recipe and photo courtesy of Donatello’s Italian Restaurant in Carmel On a long cold day, this is the perfect comfort food, available at Donatello’s Italian Restaurant.

Notes: You can always add more or less garlic according to your preference. That’s the beauty of cooking for yourself.

Serves: 1 to 2 people.

Ingredients: “ 1 cup heavy whipping cream. “ 2 teaspoons of finely chopped garlic. “ 1/3 cup finely grated parmesan cheese. “ 3 pats of butter. “ 1 cup of cooked shrimp cut into thirds. “ 1 cup of cooked angel hair pasta.

Directions: Put on a medium pot of water to boil. Grab a medium-sized skillet and heat it to medium heat. Add butter and let it melt but not burn or brown. The key is don’t turn the heat up too high.

Add garlic — you can add more or less based on preference — but make sure it doesn’t brown or burn. Burned garlic will ruin the dish and you’ll need to start over. Use a low heat and be sure to stir the garlic so it doesn’t stick. The finer you chop the garlic the more it’s likely to burn, but finely chopped garlic also helps spread the flavor throughout the dish, so just keep an eye on that.

Once the garlic and butter are cooked, add the shrimp. Often people over-cook shrimp and it becomes rubbery. You just want it to turn pink. If you are worried about over-

cooking the shrimp, you can cook it separately in a pot of boiled water. You can reheat cold shrimp with a touch of water in a bowl covered with plastic wrap in the microwave but be careful reheating. You don’t want the shrimp to turn rubbery.

Next you’ll add the heavy whipping cream to the skillet. You want the cream to reduce and become thick without scalding the dairy product. Remember, medium heat and patience is the key. Stir with a wire whisk to help the sauce thicken. Add Parmesan cheese and stir while adding. (Note: if you use cheap Parmesan, it could make your dish taste too salty.)

While making the sauce, you’ll be cooking the pasta in boiling water. Basically, follow whatever time it says on the package if you bought pre-made pasta, but generally it should be 3 to 5 minutes.

Add the fresh cooked pasta to the sauce while it’s still hot and it will absorb some of the sauce before you scoop it into a bowl.Â

Behind Bars: Pomegranate martini Get it at MacKenzie River, Carmel Ingredients: 2 oz. Pama pomegranate liqueor, 1 oz.

Absolut Citron vodka, 2 oz. Sweet and sour, Lemon Directions: Shake Pama, vodka and sweet and sour together and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with a lemon.

Remember to KISS Commentary by Joe Drozda and Bob Bley Surely everyone in our modern and enlightened audience knows the acronym KISS for Keep It Simple Stupid!

As enlightened tailgaters, we need to remember that tailgating is a social event, where good, tasty food and drinks are served.

It is a social event to relax and enjoy conversation and congenial spirits. Tailgating is not an opportunity to overdo cooking and grilling.

When you see a tow-behind grill/smoker and a man feeding upwards to two dozen guests you are seeing a person that spent too much money and too much effort to accomplish something that any homemaker knows is not that hard.

When planning your tailgating menu think of using items that take very little time to prepare and grill, but still taste like food from that huge grill setup. Here are a few rules that we are repeating to allow for more tailgating fun.

Use extremely tasty pre-cooked foods that don’t taste like pre-cooked.

When not using pre-cooked meats, use cuts that are simple to fix.

Prepare everything possible at home in your sterile kitchen.

Tailgate kabobs Ingredients: 1 green bell pepper cut into 1-inch chunks, 1 red bell pepper cut into 1-inch chunks, 1 yellow bell pepper cut into 1-inch chunks, One large sweet onion cut into 1-inch chunks, 1 1/2 Ib. bag Johnsonville Pre-Cooked Meatballs, 1 1/2 Ib. bag Johnsonville Pre-cooked Italian Sausage Slices, 11 oz. pack of Johnsonville Uncooked Kabobs (4 flavors to choose from), 12 French bread sub buns from the bakery Preparation: Skewer each kabob individuHOOSIER PARK RACING & CASINO – 4500 Dan Patch Circle, Anderson – hoosierpark.com Oct. 7 – Seth Cook THE CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS – 355 City Center Dr., Carmel – thecenterpresents.org Oct. 8 – Carmel Symphony Orchestra Oct. 9 – Indiana Wind Symphony HOPWOOD CELLARS WINERY – 12 E.

ally as pictured. Or KISS and make up individual skewers of meatballs, sausage slices and veggie chunks. Pack these into a sealand-serve container and refrigerate overnight.

On game day put the skewered items in your food cooler for transport to the tailgate. Also add the package of chicken kabobs, unopened, to the cooler.

Pack the sub buns in a paper bag with other items that don’t need to be in a cooler.

As guests arrive, place kabobs and other skewered items onto your hot grill. Drizzle olive oil onto the veggies first. Everything will be ready in about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the skewers and strip them onto four separate paper plates. Keep the meatballs on one plate, the sausages on another, and the chicken on a third plate and the veggies on their own plate.

Serve with your favorite mustard or other appropriate sauces preferred by the guests, like pizza sauce or even a teriyaki sauce.

Studio 27 creates web-design business

By Anna Skinner “ P]]P/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\

Spencer and Heather Sokol own Studio 27, a web design and mobile app business. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

Like most husband and wife teams, Spencer and Heather Sokol enjoy spending time together. But instead of just incorporating family hobbies into their lifestyle, they decided to take their passions and combine them into TECH Studio 27, a local business that creates websites and mobile apps.

Heather calls it the “new mom and pop.� “Spencer is a computer developer, software and web developer,� Heather said. “I’ve been a blogger since blogging was a word. A few years ago we decided those two things converged very nicely, and it would be a good idea if we put those together.�

The pair works at the Union, a co-working space at 136 N. Union St. “We are not the traditional husband and wife team. I’ve got my tattoos, and he’s got his music,� Heather said. “We work together in the digital age, which is something people are still grappling with and what to do and how to get there. One of the things I hear a lot is, ‘I can never work with my husband,’ but that used to be the thing. The mom and pop stores were a family that worked together. It’s a whole different concept, and it’s a whole new era. We aren’t sitting on the front porch of our country store, but we work at the Union.�

Spencer designs the websites, and Heather writes content and creates a social media strategy, such as updating Facebook pages. “We really like to work with small businesses similar to us,� Heather said. “We enjoy working with family-owned businesses and what makes them tick and what’s the story behind what they do and how we can help them use that to draw people in.� “That’s the part I like,� Spencer said. “Big corporate clients are really hard to work with as far as from a freelancer’s perspective. We like to get to know the people behind the business.�

Keith’s Client Reviews

“Keith and Kristen were extremely helpful during our home's listing and selling process. Keith's knowledge of the market and negotiating skills helped us correctly price our property.

Kristen was very professional leading and taking charge of the marketing tasks. Both, Keith and Kristen, truly went above and beyond timely responding to our every question and provided the highest level of service we have ever experienced.�

“Keith has now sold two homes for my wife and me. He sold our first home in 1998. When it came time for my wife and I to down size again, we called Keith. Keith is the absolute definition of a professional.

As with our first home and our second home, Keith sold the homes at above market price. We recommend Keith and his team. They are the best.�

“Selling or buying a home can be stressful.

Keith and his team helped to make that journey a lot less stressful. From taking photos of my home to scheduling showings they were always available to answer questions and give advice based on all their experience and knowledge. The office staff was great as well. All in all a great team!�

“Keith Albrecht was more than our realtor. Of course, he handled all of the negotiation and appropriate paperwork. But as out of state sellers, our circumstances were more complicated. Keith handled repairs and contractors and many unforeseen problems on our behalf. He was always available, always professional, and we are very grateful to him.�

Pence lauds IEDC, decrease in Indiana unemployment

By Nick Poust “ ]Tfb/RdaaT]cX]fTbcUXT[S R^\ During the joint meeting between the Indiana Economic Development Corp. and the Indiana Economic DEVELOPMENT Development Foundation, which was held Sept. 22 at Launch Fishers and chaired by Lt. Gov. Eric Holcomb, Gov. Mike Pence called in from the campaign trail to laud the IEDC and its efforts to boost the economy and decrease unemployment. “We’re seeing such incredible progress in Indiana’s economy,� Pence said. “Right now, Indiana’s labor force participation rate is well above the national average, and we’re in the 14th consecutive month of record-setting private sector employment.�

Pence lauded Indiana’s 4.1 percent unemployment rate, which is lower than the national rate of 5 percent. “Obviously, the credit for that goes to all of the hard working people of Indiana, to our entrepreneurs and business owners investing in ways that are creating jobs,� Pence said.

Prior to Pence’s conference call, the IEDC board reviewed multiple projects in the works.

Among them was Regional Cities 2. Board Member John Thompson offered suggestions on how to improve upon Regional Cities 1, including eligibility of a region based on total dollar amount and population density. A motion to pursue Regional Cities 2 was passed

by Holcomb and the IEDC board.

IEDC President Jim Schellinger echoed Thompson’s statement in regards to the importance of Regional Cities and its impact on the state’s well being. “The Regional Cities Initiative taught us a lot about what vibrant communities of the future can be,� Schellinger said. “In addition to be cool places to live, work and play, they are going to be communities that have an ecosystem for innovation. It’s proven that that drives wages up and improves companies, and we’ll start that at the most fundamental level.�

According to Eric Shields, vice president of policy and strategic initiatives for the IEDC, 100 projects are up for consideration throughout the state, and 19 have come to the IEDC for processing. Of those 19, six have been approved and the remaining 13 are under review.

Nine are from the North Central region, three are from the Southwest region and one is from the Northeast region.

Of the $96 million tied in with the six approved projects, $65 million is coming directly from the private sector and $11 million from the Regional Cities Initiative. Shields said the goal for each project is to have less than 20 percent of funds come from the state, and that is taking place here. “Each of the regions are working to develop objective metrics that they can use to measure their success,� Shields said. “In the short term, what we are looking at is, ‘Are they implementing their plans?’ From what we’re seeing today, that’s certainly the case.�

Installing lighting for a specific area, referred to as task lighting, requires finding fixtures that fit your style and space. BdQ\XccTS _W^c^

Lighting options: How to choose Commentary by David Decker Choosing the right lighting and light fixtures can be an arduous task. The key is know what your need is HOME IMPROVEMENT in each room before you begin. Whether it’s your kitchen, family room, or entryway, you should first begin with understanding how you use the room before you begin the selection process.

For example, in a great room or basement where you will need bright full light, consider recessed lights or flush mount ceiling fixtures.

These will give you an overall relaxed feel and easily fill the room with a bright glow. Consult with a professional if you are unsure how to install recessed lighting or how big of a fixture to have for your room.

If your room needs just a little extra light for a reading nook or to brighten a dark corner, consider a floor lamp with an upward glow. This also gives you the option of having a more muted ambiance if you want to avoid bright lights in the evening.

Installing lighting for a specific area, referred

to as task lighting, requires finding fixtures that fit your style and space. For example, adding pendants above your kitchen island can bring light into your room quickly and easily. However, be cognizant of how far they hang from the ceiling. If you have an older home with low ceilings, know that pendants make the ceilings feel even lower, and sticking with recessed lighting may be a smarter choice.

From a purely decorative standpoint, wall sconces or similar accent fixtures can cast an indirect light anywhere in a room. Often found flanking a fireplace mantel or as a decorative addition to an entryway, there are a variety of styles when it comes to sconce lighting.

If you’re considering installing new lighting in your home and need some help along the way, give us a call at 317-575-9540.

HAPPY HOMES MAKE HAPPY LIVES. What kind of happy are you?

Dalai Lama’s Temple in McLeod Ganj, India. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Home of the Dalai Lama Commentary by Don Knebel A 2013 survey identified the Dalai Lama as among the world’s most popular leaders. That popularity has made the town TRAVEL in India where he lives an important destination for admirers from around the world.

In 1939, 4-year-old Lhamo Döndrub, born to a poor Tibetan farming family, was declared the 14th Dalai Lama and taken, along with his parents, to Lhasa, Tibet’s capital. Considered the reincarnation of earlier Dalai Lamas and Avalokite vara, the bodhisattva of compassion, Döndrub was renamed Tenzin Gyatso. At age 15, Gyatso, titled “His Holiness the Dalai Lama,” became the temporal leader of Tibet. In March 1959, during a failed revolt by Tibetans against Chinese control, the Dalai Lama and a small entourage, including his immediate family, escaped from Lhasa on foot and eventually reached extreme northeastern India.
