First case of monkeypox identified in Indiana news@currentzionsville.com Indiana Department of Health officials announced June 18 that the first probable case of monkeypox in EDUCATION Indiana in 2022 has been identified. No further information about the patient will be released because of privacy concerns. IDOH Laboratories completed initial testing June 18. According to a press release from the IDOH, confirmatory testing is pending at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The patient remains isolated, and health officials are working to identify anyone the
patient may have had close contact with while infectious. “The risk of monkeypox among the general public continues to be extremely low,” State Health Commissioner Dr. Kris Box stated. “Monkeypox is rare and does not easily spread through brief casual contact. Please continue to take the same steps you do to protect against any infection, including washing your hands frequently and thoroughly, and check with a health care provider if you have any new signs or symptoms.” Person-to-person transmission is possible either through skin-to-skin contact with body fluids, monkeypox sores or contaminated items, such as bedding or clothing,
or through exposure to respiratory droplets during prolonged face-to-face contact. Monkeypox typically begins with fever, headache, chills, muscle aches and exhaustion about five to 21 days after exposure. Within one to three days, sometimes longer, after the appearance of fever, the patient develops a rash, often beginning on the face and then spreading to other parts of the body. Some people may only develop the rash. The illness typically lasts for two to four weeks. People are considered infectious until all scabs from the rash have fallen off. The CDC reports that 113 monkeypox cases have been confirmed in 21 U.S. states and territories this year.

Memories on Main raises money to support those with Alzheimer’s By Chris Bavender news@currentzionsville.com On June 30, nearly 20 Zionsville businesses will participate in Memories on Main to support those living with AlzheiEVENT mer’s and their caregivers. From special deals to awareness activities to donating a portion of sales to the Alzheimer’s Association, the day is all about helping others. “One thing I found when approaching the businesses was how many of them had been personally affected by Alzheimer’s. They had a mom or dad, or both, or another loved one who passed away from it or (were) living with it,” said Mark Wallis, director of community relations at Grand Brook Memory Care of Zionsville. “It is so very real and in our own backyard. These are neighbors, our friends, people we live and work with every day.” Wallis has worked in senior care for almost 20 years. His primary roles at Grand Brook are connecting families with resources and being a community resource and counselor. “We are exclusively memory care and focus on providing very personalized, hands-on care for each person,” Wallis said. “Each per-

son has their own unique journey and care they need.” Wallis embraces Memories on Main’s mission. “When we see everything going on in the world, we want to make a difference, so this is a way we can do something for our neighbors,” he said. “Frankly, probably everyone has a friend or neighbor or loved one affected by this disease or who will be affected by it.” Wallis said every business participating in Memories on Main will do something different to show support. “Midwest Jewelers will raffle a necklace and earrings crafted by their designer,” he said. “Five Thirty Home will donate a portion of sales. Akard’s made a candy they are selling, and Foundations Chiropractic will contribute $20 for every new patient they see this month. Everyone has found a unique way to raise awareness and funds for the association.” For more about Memories on Main, visit its Facebook page at facebook.com/ZionsvilleMemoriesonMain.

The Guerin Catholic High School boys golf team celebrates with the state championship trophy. (Photo courtesy of IHSAA)
Guerin Catholic’s strong finish leads to state championship By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com After leading by four strokes after the first round, the Guerin Catholic High School boys golf team found itself down GOLF 10 strokes to Westfield during the second round of the IHSAA state finals. “We battled from behind in several of our tournaments late in the season, so we knew if we played committed golf, we would finish strong down the stretch,” Golden Eagles coach Mark Mathews said. Entering the 18th hole tied with Westfield, Guerin Catholic junior Jacob Modleski birdied the final hole while Westfield’s Alec Cesare narrowly missed a birdie putt and parred. Guerin won with 602 stokes, one less than Westfield June 15 at Prairie View Golf Club in Carmel. Hamilton Southeastern was third with 615 strokes. Noblesville placed 10th with 641. Guerin Catholic finished second in the 2021 finals, losing to Center Grove by one stroke. “We worked all season long on finishing our rounds with full commitment to every shot,” Mathews said. “Our overall team scores improved this year because of the hard work they put in all winter long in the combined Golf School of Indiana and Fitness Garage program.” Modleski said last year’s second-place finish was a motivating factor. “To lose by one shot last year really put a chip on our shoulder, and as a team I know we wanted it this year really badly,” Modleski said. “We know every shot matters, and it’s always fun when tournaments come
down to a couple shots and you come out on top.” Westfield had edged Guerin by three strokes at the Westfield Sectional and by one stroke at the Lake Central Regional. “The great competition that we had all season long with Westfield and Carmel certainly helped us come together as a team and put the hard work in that was needed to accomplish our team goals for the state championship,” Mathews said. Modleski shot rounds of 74 and 71 for a 145 total, tying him for fifth in the state individually with Noblesville High School senior Will Perkins. Modleski, a Noblesville resident, was second individually in last year’s state finals. “Jacob definitely played well all season long. The state championship was no exception,” said Mathews, a Westfield resident. “He is a very focused young man and certainly has the ability to play very well under extreme pressure, and that skill was on full display the final hole of the championship.” Guerin sophomore Leo Wessel, an Indianapolis resident, tied for 10th among individuals. Connor McNeely, a Noblesville resident who has signed a national letter of intent to play golf at Butler, finished tied for 17th. McNeely won sectional medalist honors with a 69 at Ulen Country Club in Lebanon. “Connor McNeely was our senior leader and had a solid season and is excited about his future as a Butler Bulldog,” Mathews said. “Our senior leadership and overall contributions from Connor McNeely, Scotty Smith and Luke Scariano made the difference all season long.” Smith lives in Zionsville and Scariano is from Noblesville.

Westfield show dog competes at Westminster By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Rhys, a Swedish Vallhund owned by Westfield resident Megan Arszman, wasn’t necessarily born to shine in CONTEST the spotlight. But now, Rhys is the No. 1 Swedish Vallhund show dog in the nation. Rhys competed at the June 20 Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Westminster is an all-breed confirmation dog show. Rhys earned Select Dog, which equates to placing third. Arszman said Rhys came a long way to place at Westminster. She noted that Rhys didn’t have a performer’s personality when she first met the dog. “He was really shy, nervous, scared of his own shadow,” Arszman said. Arszman grew up in a family that owned and bred dogs for showing confirmation, whereby judges look for how well a dog is built and suited for its breed’s job. When Arszman graduated from college, she began showing her corgi in agility rather than confirmation. When her corgi died and a family friend, Sharon Pokorski, needed to find a home for Rhys, who will be 4 years old in August, Arszman was unsure about taking him. Arszman originally agreed to co-own Rhys with Pokorski, who was battling Stage 4 lung cancer. Pokorski had found someone to care for a litter of Swedish Vallhund puppies while being treated for cancer. The puppies were bred from a 2017 Westminster champion, but Arszman said they weren’t in the best of shape because Pokorski couldn’t care for them. Rhys was one of the puppies. Swedish Vallhunds are considered cousins to the corgi breed. “Sharon came to my mom and said, ‘I would love for Megan to take Rhys for a little bit. She can help turn him around,’” Arszman said. Arszman said she and Pokorski co-owned Rhys. “I had just lost my corgi, and I said, ‘OK,’ thinking it was temporary,” Arszman said. “But I have a 3-year-old daughter and you can’t bring a puppy into the house and have a 3-year-old daughter and say he’s not staying.” Arszman calls Rhys her “foster fail” because she now fully owns him, which she never planned to do. She had only shown dogs in agility and never in confirmation, but Arszman received many compliments about Rhys. So, she enrolled Rhys in classes

at an obedience club. Now, Arszman shows Rhys. Sometimes professional handler M’Kayla Stahr shows him. Stahr showed Rhys at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show because Arszman is recovering from hamstring reattachment surgery. Arszman’s parents, Hank and Michelle Arszman, showed golden retrievers. Arszman’s sister, Erin Dean, owns Frontier K9 Dog Training and is a retired police K-9 officer. Arszman’s grandmother owned a kennel, now known as Bed and Biscuit Boarding Kennel, in Jolietville, a small town northeast of Zionsville and west of Westfield. Stahr said Rhys is a pleasure to show. “(Arszman) has him very well trained,” said Stahr, who lives in Booneville. “Be-
tween his training and attitude to want to show makes all the difference in the ring. He wants to be in the ring and getting the extra attention and cookies, of course.” Arszman agreed that Rhys loves showing. “Dogs that have jobs, they love their job. It’s so cool to see him show,” she said. “When you get ready to show him, when you take him into the building where the rings are, he does his fancy prance. His head is held high, and he knows he’s good looking. He’s there to win. It’s been a fun ride with him.” Rhys’ registered name is GCH Hightower Frontier’s SmoothAsBourbon, because his color is similar to the color of bourbon. The name is also a nod to the fact Arszman lived in Lexington, Ky., for many years. Hightower is Pokorski’s kennel name and Frontier is
AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW Megan Arszman said she wasn’t in favor of entering Rhys in the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show until she learned the competition was held outdoors. “They were supposed to have it back in New York City in January, but because of COVID, they pushed it back again to June to have it outdoors at the Lyndhurst Mansion. Because of that, I entered him,” Arszman said. Arszman said Rhys is still nervous, and there are loud sounds at Westminster, specifically when the competition is held indoors.

Former major league pitcher Storen lends hand to the ZCHS baseball team By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Community High School baseball team has a special advantage. The Eagles’ pitching coach just happens to be Drew Storen, who pitched eight seasons in the majors. He began helping ZCHS coach Jered Moore in 2021. Storen knew Moore from Storen’s playing days with the Indiana Bulls travel team. “I know I like to teach,” Storen said. “I know I was lucky to have people help me throughout the years. I told Jered (I’ll Storen coach) as long as it doesn’t take away too much from being dad and the business and then school classes.” Storen, 34, was taking online classes toward his Stanford University degree in the spring of 2021 but stopped when classes returned to in-person this fall because he would have had to move his family to California. Storen spent more time with ZCHS this season as the Eagles reached the semistate of the IHSAA state tournament. Storen said senior leadership helped the team buy into what the coaches were teaching. “Coach Storen was so valuable to our pitching staff this year because he not only brought years of MLB experience to our pitchers but also taught us how to be competitors on the mound and how to win,” senior pitcher Drew Dickson said. “His knowledge of pitch calling and helping us throw different pitches better was incredibly important to the success we had as a staff this year.” Storen said he has always enjoyed the development side of teaching. “I had never been involved in the in-game (of coaching), so that was a fun challenge for me,” he said. “I feel coaching is a balancing act. It’s knowing your audience and understanding what makes a guy click. Teaching is a lot of little things, but you have to let them play. They asked questions, they wanted to learn, and I saw them make adjustments.” Storen’s coaching wasn’t limited to high school. He coached his 5-year-old son Jace’s team during tee-ball season for Carmel Dads’ Club this spring. “I joke with my wife, it’s one of the worst episodes of ‘Undercover Boss’ you’ve ever seen,” he said. “The way we do it is, the kid gets four pitches from the coach before they go to the tee. I would go out and pitch and almost had a couple perfect innings where the kid didn’t have to use the tee.” Storen, a 2007 Brownsburg High School graduate, lived in downtown Indianapolis during his playing days. When Jace was born, the family moved to Carmel. “That was our starter home and now we’re starting the building process in Zionsville,” said Storen, who also has a

2-year-old son, Pierce, with his wife, Brittani, a pharmacy major. “We’ve been designing and working on the house for well over a year now.” Storen was an architecture major at Stanford but left after his junior year when he was drafted by Washington Nationals organization with the 10th pick in the first round.
“I designed things I wanted to be in the house and handed it off to the pro,” Storen said. “I had my hand in it more than a normal client would. I also know my limitations.” Storen had a 29-18 record with a 3.45 earned run average in his eight seasons as a major league reliever. His best season was 2014 when he was 2-1 with a 1.12 ERA in 65 games. “Looking back, it’s more than I could of ever dreamed of,” he said of his career. Storen had an ulner collateral ligament reconstruction – better known as Tommy John surgery -- on his right elbow after pitching with Cincinnati in 2017 and sat out all of 2018. “There is a big difference rehabbing under a team control and rehabbing on your own,” Storen said. “I had blisters issues and it didn’t work out with Kansas City (in 2019). I pitched well with Philadelphia in spring training (in 2020) when COVID hit. That changed all the roster construction and they released (me). I kept training but I knew my heart wasn’t really in it anymore. I have to be all in. From a pitching side of things, I wasn’t nearly as good as I used to be and that’s not fun. I’d always tell people I was never great about playing baseball as a business. I was good about playing for the right reasons. “It was a job, but I never treated it like one. It was getting to the point it started to feel like a job.” ON THE COVER:Drew Storen pauses in front of his Major League Baseball uniforms and a model of his Field of Dreams whiskey bottle. (Photo courtesy of Drew Storen)
A FIELD OF DREAMS WHISKEY MISSION Drew Storen said he always told people he would be done playing in the majors when he had an answer for what he wanted to do. He came up with the idea about six years ago to create a Field of Dreams whiskey. Storen said it’s a nice blend of his favorite things: baseball, bourbon collecting and storytelling. “It’s kind of a perfect storm with the new project,” Storen said. “Our goal is to get it out by the (Field of Dreams) game (Aug. 11), and then we’ll have bottle releases for next year. The unique factor of what our brand is versus other ones is our ingredient is the brand. We don’t have the luxury of going to a big distillery and using some of their juices and put our own label on it. We are taking every kernel of corn from the movie site in Iowa.” One of Storen’s partners is former Washington Nationals teammate Tyler Clippard. He also expects former Brownsburg teammate and Chi-
cago White Sox pitcher Lance Lynn to be involved, along with other former MLB teammates. Storen is in charge of getting it off the ground. Storen said he first began discussing the idea for Field of Dreams whiskey with Andy Keller, a friend from Brownsburg High School, who helped Storen build his bourbon collection. “We were on a road trip (and) we were talking about the different bottles we found,” he said. “I said, ‘I find I’m paying for stories and that’s what a lot of bourbon is.’ We were spit-balling ideas that if we made our own bourbon, what story would it tell? That’s when I came up with the main ingredient in whiskey is corn. What is the most famous cornfield in the world? Field of Dreams. We saw a parallel of whiskey numbers with baseball numbers and tell stories for the baseball fan. I never had anyone say it’s a stupid idea and it’s never going to work.”

Zionsville Lions Club plans ‘biggest ever’ fireworks show By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Steve Gayheart is confident Zionsville residents will get the biggest bang for their buck at this year’s Zionsville Fourth of July celebration. Gayheart, a Zionsville Lions Club mem4TH OF JULY ber and event chairman, said the club is planning its biggest-ever fireworks show. “Ultimately, we’ve put some more money into them this year, so the actual fireworks show itself will be the biggest ever,” Gayheart said. “It’s grown.” Nearly 10,000 people annually attend the event. The Zionsville Lions Club has sponsored Zionsville’s Fourth of July celebration since 1979. Gayheart said people often arrive at Lions Park, 115 S. Elm St., early in the day to save their spots to watch the fireworks. Festivities begin at 5 p.m. Fireworks begin at dusk, which is usually around 10 p.m. Parking is $8 at Lions Park. Gayheart said the Fourth of July celebration is the Zionsville Lions Club’s second-largest annual fundraiser. The largest is the Fall Festival in September. The event will include a DJ, activities for children such as bounce houses and games and food vendors with items like elephant ears, pork tenderloins and corn dogs. Greek’s Pizzeria will sell pizza and The Scoop will sell ice cream.

Commentary by Terry Anker
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Nobody likes to be proven wrong. Well, few of us do, anyway. We take it as a personal defeat. How could we have made the error? We must have had incomplete information. Is it possible that we are not smart? No, certainly not. Our moms told us that we were geniuses. There is no chance that she’d have lied to us. Is it possible that we lack perspective on the matter? We doubt it. Our perspective, from our perspective, is pretty darn good. Maybe they are mistaken in claiming that we were mistaken. Like a turtle flipped upon its back, it takes some real effort for us to get our attitude right when we are shown to have a deeply held, longtime erroneous position. It matters to we good humans that others believe like we do, that they reinforce what we hold true. We like to be reminded that we are intelligent, that we are right! It all adds to our stock of confidence. If we were correct so many times before, we are likely to make the accurate choice the next time we act. Cogent and thoughtful arguments that oppose our views can make us look bad, certainly make us feel bad. But don’t we learn more from our failures than from our successes? Isn’t there a nobility in taking a defeat with grace only to return and become victorious? Are we all caught in some infallibility trap, one that requires that we run from our errors only to never learn from them? The younger a child, the less they seem to care about being corrected. As they age, they begin to find discomfort in their own inaccuracy. Correspondingly, the speed of their learning tends to slow as they age. Is our biggest failure refusing to accept our imperfection?
Friends, I’m recently back from Nerd Camp, and I. Am. Pumped! Technically, I attended a professional development colloquium for teachers on Thomas Jefferson, but for me, a huge American history fan, the weekend was a sort of all-expenses paid Disney experience, complete with like-minded goobers from across the nation, an actual political science professor and surprisingly good food. The best part? I was allotted a single, 1970s-era dorm room with its own bathroom and a super-firm, 2-inch foam mattress. Introvert heaven! So, what did I learn? Besides confirming my view that T.J. is way overrated as president (I’ll give him the Louisiana Purchase and that’s it!), the seminar allowed me to make a few keen social observations. First and foremost, there’s always “that guy.” In this case, it was a gentleman from Illinois who insisted on prefacing each of his questions with a vomiting of historical facts. He talked more than our fearless Ph.D. leader, constantly hijacking the conversation in a condescending manner. We get it, Joshua. You’re smart. Now shut the heck up! Second, people who constantly mutter negative comments under their breath are beyond annoying. I know they know I can hear them, but they don’t seem the least bit concerned about being a distraction from the conversation, not to mention a real energy drag (I’m talking to you, Jinnifer with an “i”). Either speak your mind for everyone to hear or zip it. This rude whispering nonsense doesn’t fly. Finally, in 90-degree heat, even professional educators revert to middle school antics. We just do. I still have five weeks before school starts, but thanks to Nerd Camp, I’m pumped! Peace out.

106th Street needs attention Editor, I am a resident of Carmel for about a year now and have not seen any progress on the poor road situation on 106th Street between Michigan and Shelborne roads. I trust there is a process to inform the city to help fix roads with severe damage, potholes and large cracks in the middle of the roads. It’s almost impossible to drive a car on that section of road now. What would be needed to be done to get some attention in this area? Chitra Bhagat, Carmel
Dark-tinted windows make enforcing law difficult Editor, I continue reading articles of unsafe driving practices due to the illegal use of cellphones. Being able to enforce the law is impossible when we allow the illegal use of dark-tinted windows on the front windows and windshield. Why don’t we ticket the use of this practice so our police can enforce the law to enhance safe driving? Dick Vitales, Carmel

Versiti in need of blood By Haley Miller news@currentzionsville.com Amid a nationwide blood shortage, Versiti Blood Center of Indiana issued an emergency appeal earlier this month DONATION for blood donations. Versiti’s Area Vice President Penny Schroeder said collections fell 20 percent last month, and the center urgently needs O negative and O positive blood types. “We want to make sure we mitigate any impact to our hospitals and our patients in Indiana,” Schroeder said. “Blood is something that can’t be made in a laboratory. The only way we can get this precious resource is from donors.” Trickle-down effects of the pandemic are largely responsible for the low blood inventory. Several hospitals began offering elective surgeries again at the start of 2022, driving up the need for blood on the shelf. Blood-drive sites that would have drawn many donors prior to the pandemic have yielded fewer donors in 2022. Schroeder said office blood drives, for example, now only attract a third or half of would-be donors because of hybrid work schedules. “It’s been a unique challenge throughout the pandemic,” Schroeder said. Summertime also exacerbates the situation because Versiti cannot hold high-volume blood drives at high schools and uni-
versities during summer break. Schroeder said high school and college students make up 30 percent of Indiana’s blood supply. “As we head into the heart of summer, now is a crucial time for blood donation,” senior medical director Dr. Dan Waxman stated in a recent Versiti press release. “With more people traveling and getting together, there is more opportunity for accidents and the subsequent need for blood.” Besides Type O donors, Versiti also needs platelet donors. Platelets are a special kind of blood cell that helps with clotting. A low platelet count, common among cancer patients, premature babies and trauma victims, may lead to excessive bruising and bleeding. Central Indiana residents can donate at one of Versiti’s six local collection centers: Carmel, Fishers, Greenwood, Terra Haute, Lafayette and downtown Indianapolis. Versiti supplies blood services to more than 60 Indiana hospitals. Potential donors can schedule an appointment online at donate.indiana.versiti.org. Schroeder said the team at Versiti appreciates Hoosiers who help support the blood supply and needs more individuals to add regular blood donations every eight weeks to their to-do list. “Chances are, you or someone you know in your lifetime is going to need blood,” Schroeder said. “It is the blood on the shelf today that literally will save someone’s life tomorrow.”
DISPATCHES Tea might reduce breast cancer risk — Making smart choices about your diet can go a long way toward lowering your risk of breast cancer. Now it looks like choosing the right beverage can also help. Women who sip green or oolong tea may be able to gain extra breast cancer protection, according to a study published in the journal Anticancer Research. Researchers at St. Louis University in Missouri, led by Chunfa Huang, Ph.D., an associate research professor in the department of internal medicine, tested extracts of various teas against several types of breast cancer cells. Huang included extracts from green, oolong, black and other dark teas. His results indicated that green and oolong teas could stop the growth of breast cancer cells; the two types of tea worked equally well against all the cell lines Huang tested. Black and other dark teas had no effect, he said. Source: Msn.com
Walking for arthritis — Walking is beneficial in fighting arthritis pain that it’s considered a natural medicine. Painful, stiff joints make it hard to get moving, but moving is exactly what is needed for pain relief. For maximum benefits, one should try to walk at a moderate pace for at least 30 minutes every day. If 30 minutes is too much, start with less time and work up gradually. Source: American Journal of Public Health Fiber to fight diabetes — New research shows that people who are willing to more than double the fiber in their diets from 16 to 37 grams per day can better control diabetes. It needs to be a high amount of diverse types of fibers. Getting nearly 40 grams may sound like a tall order, but it’s actually not that hard and it could make a radical difference in your blood sugar level by increasing insulin production.

Carmel teen moves from Disney series to music By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com After appearing in three seasons as Sophia on Disney’s “Sydney to the Max” TV series, Amelia PERFORMING ARTS Wray has been taking an acting break to concentrate on her music. “I love it all,” Wray said of acting and singing. The 17-year-old Wray, who was reared in Carmel, will perform in the July 30 “Boys of Summer” concert at Avondale Music Hall in Chicago. She will perform her single “Moved On” live for the first time. Wray wrote it with the help of singer-songwriter Audrey Paige. Eric Johnson and Marc Johnson, who own The Pop Machine recording studio in Indianapolis, produced and recorded it. Wray also will sing two cover songs she selected in Chicago. In the works is an opportunity for Wray to perform as an opening act for Menudo in Las Vegas in November. Menudo started as a Puerto Rican boy band in 1977. Wray takes vocal lessons from former “American Idol” music supervisor Michael Orland. “He’s been my voice coach for years and I truly thank him for his guidance,” she said. “Music makes me so happy. My goal is to create an EP (extended play album), so I’m writing and writing.” Nonetheless, she said she misses filming and the rehearsal schedule of being on a series. Wray played a recurring character in five episodes in Season 1, 12 episodes in Season 2 and five episodes in Season 3. The show finished filming Season 2 in February 2020, and the episodes were supposed to return six weeks later, but the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to that. When filming resumed in October 2022, it was quite different with the cast and crew required to wear face masks at all times, except when filming, and the actors couldn’t socialize. “They didn’t even want us to eat lunch together,” Wray said. “During rehearsals, they made us wear the face shields. We’d film a scene and the second they said cut,

we had to put on our masks. We were tested for COVID every day.” The pandemic delay also meant the child actors all looked older than planned when filming resumed. “When we came back, we didn’t look like we were in eighth grade anymore,” Wray said. During the pandemic, Wray appeared in a short segment that was part of the film “Entanglement,” which included 12 shorts. Her segment is a solo short called “Isolation in Lockdown.” Her 10-minute part was filmed at her home. “I play this girl who is trapped in the house during COVID,” Wray said. “This girl is going crazy. ‘I can’t catch a break from my parents and siblings. I just need a place in my house to escape to where I don’t have to talk to anyone.’ “
The girl finds a cleaning closet in her basement. “She makes an invisible friend, which is a mop she calls Leonard,” Wray said. “She rants and talks to him like he’s a friend.” Wray is still auditioning for TV and film opportunities. If she is offered the right opportunity, she said she would love to do another show. “I probably wouldn’t even hesitate,” said Wray, who has one year left in high school. “My goal is to get a film or another TV series, get a little more recognition and then go do a Broadway show.” Wray’s twin brother, Mitchell, is taking a break from acting and is working on fashion designs. The siblings are represented by The Osgood Agency. For tickets to Boys of Summer tour, visit Wray’s Instagram, @ameliawray.

Much ado about fossil words Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
Interior of Pantheon in Rome. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Christian history of Ancient Roman buildings Commentary by Don Knebel Today, in the last column in the series about Rome, we look at some ancient Roman buildings that surTRAVEL vived more or less intact because they were reused by Christians. During the first three centuries A.D., Rome was the largest and most important city in the world. With about 800,000 residents, the city center, including the Roman Forum, featured magnificent marble temples, monuments and administrative buildings. In 410, when the so-called “barbarians,” Arian Christians, first sacked Rome, many of the structures began collapsing and their structural materials began being used in churches. But some of those structures survived because Christians repurposed them. The Pantheon, dedicated by Emperor Hadrian in about A.D. 26 to honor all the Roman gods, is the most famous of the preserved structures. Its 142-foot-diameter dome, constructed from unreinforced concrete, remains the largest such dome in the world. The Pantheon owes its longevity to its conversion to a church honoring Mary and the Martyrs in 609. A domed cylindrical temple of uncertain significance near the Roman Forum survived when it became the church of Santi Cosma e Damiano in 527. The Curia Julia, the Senate building in the Roman Forum begun by Julius Caesar in 44 B.C., survived because it became the Church of Sant’Adriano al Foro in A.D. 630. The Temple of Antoninus and Faustina, honoring
If you want to feel old, try explaining how we used to watch TV to a 10-yearold: “In days of yore, you couldn’t skip the commercials or GRAMMAR GUY pause the show. You just had to watch what was on when it was on. Yes, that’s how we watched TV in the 20th century.” You’ll feel like a complete fossil. We have some English words that seem like fossils, yet, like those of us born in the last century, they keep a death grip on life. These words are called “fossil words.” A fossil word tends to show up in a particular idiom or phrase, but we don’t use that word in any other context. Take the word “turpitude,” for instance. Outside of the phrase “moral turpitude,” you never see it. Turpitude has been fossilized with “moral,” and I don’t see it breaking free anytime soon. Although it means “to dish out,” the word “wreak” rarely shows up outside of the phrase “wreak havoc.” Occasionally, someone in an old medieval story wreaks
vengeance, but “wreak” is almost always joined at the hip with “havoc.” Be careful not to confuse “wreak” with “reek,” as these homophones could really trip you up (and leave you all stinky). Here’s another tricky fossil word that moonlights as a homophone: bated. It means “to diminish or lessen.” You never hear someone say, “Frank, you have really bated your waistline; you must be exercising!” Of course, we don’t hear that, because the word “bated” is fossilized next to the word “breath.” Frank waited with bated breath to see the number on the scale. Just don’t “bait” anyone’s breath; I’m not really sure what that would mean. In addition to the fossil words already discussed, you’ll also discover that “hither,” “amok,” “inclement,” “ado,” “eke,” “beck,” “champing” and “knell” have been cemented inside other phrases.

The Roman Forum was built by Julius Caeser.
the deified Emperor Antonius Pius and his wife, Faustina, was built in 141 on a platform overlooking the Roman Forum. In the seventh century, it became a church honoring the martyrdom of Lawrence of Rome. Today, because of excavations of the forum, the entrance to the church is far above current ground level. Not all Roman structures survived by becoming churches. The exterior of the colonnaded temple honoring the deified Emperor Hadrian survived because it became a palace authorized by Pope Innocent XII in 1695.
