the other things they bring to the table,” Keen said. “Both are quality medical organizations. I know we’ve worked well with them (Riverview) in the past.”

As the exclusive healthcare provider, Riverview will oversee an onsite employee clinic, school nurses and sports medicine.

Business manager Nick Verhoff said the move will provide the dis-trict significant savings depending on use of the clinic, the pharmacy program which offers discounted prescriptions and how many exist-ing school nurses become River-view employees.

Verhoff said the district has been running its own health clinic for the past three years. With Riverview taking over the clinic, Verhoff said the staff will grow to three employees – an increase of one. He said a conservative estimate in savings for the clinic is at least $250,000.

“It’s going to be a considerable amount of dollars,” Verhoff said. “We spend over $4 million a year on health care coverage.”

Verhoff said he spent several months negotiating with all interested providers.

“Others could not match what Riverview provid-ed,” he said, adding that he hopes to start a parent lecture series with experts from Riverview. “Our rela-tionship with Riverview will grow over time.”

Verhoff said the new 5,500-seat Riverview Health Stadium plans to break ground in July. He said bids for the project are currently out and expected back by the end of this month. Bids will be awarded in early July if reasonably priced and construction will begin. The district expects to close on its land sale of the current stadium and adjacent land in the 40 days. Verhoff said naming rights are still available for the football and soccer fields.

COMMUNITY

Columnist Mike Redmond recently had the chance to revisit a former career when he spent two days as an historical re-enactor, historically re-enacting a bank robbery. Red-mond played a 1945-era grocer and enjoyed the experience. He spent his days ringing up sales and dusting shelves and chatting with “customers,” all while staying in character no matter how hard they tried to get him out of it. Read more at www.currentinwestfield.com.

It’s officially time to maneuver the out-door furniture to its righteous position of importance and start basking in this well-deserved change of weather. Columnist Vicky Earley thinks her favorite approach is to take a space and treat it as if it were a room without walls. A tall hedge or fencing can create a back-drop to this inviting retreat while an out-door sectional or sofa will anchor it. Read more at www.currentinwestfield.com.

Told mostly in Lego format, with all the people, places and things made up of the iconic construc-tion toys, “The Lego Movie” follows the adventures of Emmet (Chris Pratt). A normal, generic, rather boring worker, he lives in a world where everyone follows the rules of their banal society. Then he falls in with Wyldstyle (Elizabeth Banks), a member of the gang of Master Builder insurgents rebelling against the tyrannical Lord Busi-ness (Will Ferrell).

Riverview Health gets naming rights

By Robert Herrington • [email protected]

Riverview Health has entered into a long-term agreement with Westfield Washington School to serve as the exclusive healthcare provider and get

the first naming rights for the up-coming football stadium.

Riverview will pay $1.2 million dur-ing a 10-year period. Supt. Mark Keen said payments will be $10,000 a month for that timeframe and nam-ing rights begin once Riverview Health Stadium opens.

“It’s a privilege to partner with Westfield Washington Schools,” said Pat Fox, Riverview Health CEO. “It’s our way of making a com-mitment to the community. What a great opportunity to make that happen along with the city and very generous donors.”

Riverview Health also provides services to Noblesville Schools and Hamilton County. Fox said River-view Health has an office on Ind. 32 in Westfield that offers family practice and orthopedics.

“We try to serve communi-ties we live in. Westfield is as much a part of it as Noblesville,” said Larry Christman, chief operating of-ficer at Riverview Health. “The students, parents and employees in our local community rely on us to help them manage their overall health and well-being. And we’re here to provide them with extraordinary primary and specialty care.”

As part of the deal, the three athletic trainers at Westfield High School will be able to retain their positions as employees of Riverview at their choos-ing. Despite the new agreements, Keen said parents may still select their preferred provider when injuries occur.

“It does not preclude parents taking their child to go to any hospital or medical care facility,” he said. “Everybody in the medical field takes the same Hip-pocratic Oath. They are going to be there for your child.”

St.Vincent has served as sports medicine provider for the past seven years. Prior to that, Riverview provided its services.

“Nothing about this has to do with the provider, but the services. We’d had great experiences. It’s all

Chamber – On June 9, the Westfield Chamber of Commerce held an economic development luncheon about “The Business of Sports” at The Bridgewater Club. On June 19, the chamber will feature Rhonda Daly, Westfield’s director of hospitality, to discuss the hospitality impact Grand Park will have on the city. Daly will ad-dress three main topics: super services, the city app and the official grand opening.

Custom fun – This is the last week for “Home-a-Rama” where five different custom-built homes in the Brookside neighborhood of Westfield will be featured. Tickets cost $15 at the gate or $12 online, and all proceeds of the event benefit the St. Vincent Cancer Walk tak-ing place in Zionsville in September. The homes are open from noon until 8 p.m. June 18 to 22. The Brookside neighborhood is located on 161st Street just east of Carey Road in Westfield.

Ruff ride – The Humane Society for Hamilton County is holding its third annual motorcycle ride on June 21, starting at 11 a.m. The event will help the shelter raise funds for its one-of-a kind Pets Healing Vets Program that partners shelter dogs and cats with veterans suffering from PTSD or a Traumatic Brain Injury. Tickets are $35 per rider in advance and include lunch, T-shirt, casino cash, live concert and dinner. Tickets can be purchased at www.TheRuffRide.com.

Indianapolis-based biotech firm Algaeon Inc. has passed the first of three hurdles to move to Westfield – investing $25 million and adding at

least 25 jobs in the next five years.

The company makes dietary supplements for humans and nutritional ingredients from for animal/fish feed markets derived from algae. Mike Neibler, vice president of business development, said Algaeon is final-izing a lease for vacant industrial space at 17406 and 17408 Tiller Court. Plans are to transform the property into a high-tech lab that Algaeon will use in conjunction with its partner lab at Heart-land Growers in Westfield.

“We’re excited about moving from northwest Marion County to Westfield,” Neibler said.

Algaeon grows two different forms of algae – one requires sunlight and is grown at Heartland, the other is fermented, which will grow in a large tanks. Neibler said the new lab will grow 60 metric tons of diet supplements and will expand to 300 metric tons by 2019. Neibler said Algaeon

has two multi-million dollar contracts and needs to expand.

“We’re building this facility to meet the re-quirement for this four-year deal,” he said. “We’re looking forward to moving here.”

Neibler said the company will move its 14 employees to Westfield and will add five a year through 2019 – expecting a total of 39 employees by that time.

“We’ll have the same number at Heartland as well,” he said, adding that the average employee wages are $80,000.

Earlier this year, Algaeon announced a $2.75 million investment with Heartland Growers to provide greenhouse space and infrastructure.

Westfield City Council members unanimously approved a resolution establishing the Tiller Court properties as an economic revitalization area, the first of three steps in the tax abate-ment process. At its next meeting in July, the council will hear and vote on the second and third steps – a tax phase-in for personal property on new equipment.

Other business at the council meeting included:

Project brings revitalization, jobs

What happened: Adoption of Unified Development Ordinance

What happened: Frampton Estates zoning commitments amendments

What happened: Voluntary annexation of Chatham Hills

What it means: The city is looking to adopt the UDO to replace zoning and subdivision control, which was originally created in 1977 and has had various amendments dur-ing the years. Create user friendly document, incorporation revisions. Senior planner Jesse Pohlman said 85 percent of the revisions are minor corrections like grammar and reducing duplication and 15 percent are changes or modifying standards and are new standards. “I think this ordinance is very well done. We know this is not a complete list of items we know need attention. It has addressed a considerable amount of several issues that have come up in the last couple of years,” Councilor Steve Hoover said.

What it means: Approximately 54 acres in the northeast corner of 161st Street and Ditch Road was rezoned in 2006. The new property owner, Grand Communi-ties, does not intend to change the maximum number of lots of 82, but would like to make changes to commitments with the 14-acre smaller lot. Instead of nine homes plans call for 11 homes. The only other change is making lots 80 to 90 feet wide.

What it means: Two phases of Chatham Hills have 100 percent voluntary annexation. Phase III is 163 acres between 199th and 206th streets, east of Horton Road. Phase IV is 103 acres north of 206 Street and east of Oak Ridge Road. Chatham Hills, a Henke Devel-opment Group project, is a residential community featuring a championship golf course designed by Pete Dye.

What’s next? The ordinance will have a pub-lic hearing at the July 21 West-field Advisory Plan Commis-sion meeting.

What’s next? The amendments will have a public hearing at the July 7 West-field Advisory Plan Commission meeting.

What’s next? The ordinance was adoption unanimously.

Westfield Mayor Andy Cook has declared June 23 through 29 as “Amateur Radio Week” to com-

memorate 100 years of public service by “ham” radio operators. Cook

issued the designation during the June 8 city council meeting as local amateur radio operators prepare to hold annual Field Day operations at Quaker Park later this month.

Across the nation, amateur radio operators will be honing their skills at emergency commu-nications while operating “off the grid” on back-up power for 24-hours June 28 and 29 in fields, forests, parks, parking lots and some downright unique locations using gas generators, batteries and solar power. This year, there will be at least 21 Field Day exercises throughout Indiana, includ-ing Quaker Park in Westfield.

“Amateur radio is more than a fun hobby,” said Lou Everett, Sr., National Association for Amateur Radio Indiana section manager. “It’s a proven communications system that works when all

else fails as proven time and time again follow-ing hurricanes, earthquakes, and here in Indiana, severe weather including tornados.”

Field Day is designed to test operators’ abili-ties to set up and operate stations in the field under emergency conditions, such as the loss of commercial electricity. During the weekend, radio operators try to contact as many other Field Day stations as possible, simulating the fast on-air skills needed to assist county officials and served agencies during an emergency. Approxi-mately 35,000 Amateur Radio operators across the country participated in last year’s event.

“We hope that the public will come out and see firsthand what this event – and Amateur Radio – is all about,” Everett said. “Anyone inter-ested in learning about how to become a ham radio operator is encouraged to come out and get information on how to get an FCC license.”

The FCC has dropped the requirement to test for knowledge of Morse code; only a written exam is now given for three grades of amateur radio licenses.

At an age when most adolescents are as-serting their independence, Kennedy Martin of

Westfield is very happy under the care of the world’s most famous nanny.

Kennedy, 17, is starring in the role of Jane Banks in Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre’s produc-tion of Mary Poppins. Jane and her brother Mi-chael, played by Logan Sejas of Greenwood, have sent many a nanny packing before Mary Poppins arrives on their doorstep in England in 1910. Us-ing a combination of magic and common sense, she teaches the troubled Banks family how to value each other again.

“I saw Mary Poppins when it came to In-dianapolis on tour,” Kennedy said, adding this sparked her interest in performing in the produc-tion at Beef & Boards. “Mary Poppins is a fun show with a lot of energy!”

Based on one of the most popular Disney films of all time and on stage through June 29, this is the musical’s debut at Beef & Boards.

But it’s not Kennedy’s debut at the Indianapo-lis dinner theatre, where she was seen this time last season as Louisa von Trapp in The Sound of Music, as well as during the holiday season as Fan and Martha Cratchit in A Christmas Carol.

“I love being able to step into someone else’s shoes and tell a story,” Kennedy said, noting the biggest challenge for her is balancing school-

At Heritage Christian, Kennedy played the role of Susan Waverley in White Christmas. She is a member of the High School Praise and Worship Band and Colle Voce Choir, and plans to pursue a career in performing arts.

Tickets range from $38.50 to $63.50 and include Chef Odell Ward’s family-friendly dinner

buffet, prepared in-house for each performance, and select beverages. Plus, as Beef & Boards’ 2014 Family Show, Mary Poppins tickets are dis-counted $10 for children ages 3-15.

For reservations, call 872-9664 between 10 a.m. and 7 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday. For more information, including complete show schedule, visit beefand-boards.com.

Players run through a match during the 2013 season. Hickory Hall Polo Club is one of two polo clubs in the state. (Submitted photo)

By Sophia Pappas • [email protected]

Indiana only has two official polo clubs, and one of them is in Boone County.

The Hickory Hall Polo Club, in Whitestown, is kicking off its 2014 polo sea-son on June 20.

Fridays and Saturdays from June through September, Hickory Hall Polo Club members have matches at their Whitestown location at the Hickory Hall farm, in addition to travelling to nearby cities for matches.

Donna Freeze, whose fiancé is polo player Bill Thompson, is a polo enthusiast and said that polo is a rare sport in the Midwest—but not so far removed for everyone to enjoy.

“It’s a great event for all ages,” Freeze said.

“[The matches] are so much fun.”Freeze said that players range from age 22 to

age 72, and it is a club for both men and women players.

For more on Hickory Hall Polo Club, visit www.indypolo.com.

• Polo at Sunset • Fridays, gates open at 5 p.m. • Casual dress • Guests can bring a picnic and cooler to the tailgating event • Cost is $20 per car.

• Polo and Pearls • The evening of entertain-ment is the gala event of the season • semi-casual dress • food and drink service • Cost is $100 per person

• Polo on the Prairie • Saturday and Sunday, gates typically open at noon • semi-casual dress • General seating and boxes available. Picnics and coolers are accepted.

POlO 101A match consists of four to eight chukkas or

chukkers (periods) that last seven minutes and 30 seconds each. A horn is blown at the end of seven minutes to signal to the players that 30 seconds remain in the chukker.

During the 30 seconds, play continues until a team scores or the ball hits the sideboards. If neither occurs, at the end of 30 seconds the horn blows twice to signal the end of the chukker.

There are four minutes between each chuk-ker and 10 minutes at halftime.

After each goal the teams change direction. The team that scores the most goals wins.

School board recapWhat happened: Graduation date change

What happened: Pay-to-dplay prices increase

What happened: INDOT mediation agreement

What happened: Principal changes

What happened: Sodexo facilities agreement

What happened: Computer purchases

What it means: Westfield High School has moved its commencement from June 6, 2015 to May 29. Westfield Washington Schools Supt. Dr. Mark Keen said the ceremony will be held outdoors at the new Riverview Health Stadium. He said the move will allow seating for anyone interested in watching graduation instead of limiting tickets to seniors. “We want to establish an event where children who graduate here stay here to receive their diploma,” he said. “My high school gradua-tion was outdoors. It’s magnificent and I hope it takes place.”

What it means: The district planned to increase the pay-to-play amount to $70 per athlete per sport last year but decided to soft-en the blow and only increased prices to $55. The other $15 will be added starting this fall. Officials said the prices are still consider-ably lower than surrounding communities and no athlete will be turned away if they cannot pay the fee. “There’s no comparison to what other schools charge,” Business manager Nick Verhoff said. “The charges are lower fees than what most of these kids are pay-ing to play in recreation sports.” In comparison, Verhoff said Hamilton Southeastern High School charges $180 a sport and Zionsville costs more than $200.

What it means: A slither of land, approximately 1.4 acres, was requested by INDOT and removed from the district’s land sale. While INDOT’s appraisal for the land was approximately half of the district’s appraisal, Verhoff negoti-ated an agreement of $611,000 for the land – Westfield Washington School’s appraisal price. “It’s always nice to get what you should get in the first place,” said Tim Gardner, school board president.

What it means: Three Westfield schools will have new leaders this fall. Ryan Haughey, who served as assistant principal, will replace Linda Konkle as principal of Westfield Middle School. Haughey is a Westfield graduate who has only taught in the district during his 11-year career. Corey Hartley and Robb Hedges are switching buildings. Hartley will be principal at the intermediate school and Hedges will be the leader of Shamrock Springs Elementary. Keen said the switch was proposed by Hartley and Hedges as a way each could grow professionally. Superintendent Dr. Mark Keen said Harley has aspirations of working in a central office and Hedges would like to open an elementary school and each needs a new experience. “Both are trying to strengthen their resumes at different levels,” Keen said.

What it means: Sodexo and Westfield Washington Schools have been partners for almost 20 years. To continue their relationship, the two have agreed to a new 10-year agreement for facilities care – custodial, janitorial and maintenance. Sodexo plans to use Westfield as a training facility to instruct employees how a school district should run.

What it means: Westfield Middle School will receive 134 Dell computers to refresh three computer labs. Verhoff said the computers will cost $103,000 but replace ones that are “well beyond their recommended life spans.”

What’s next? In the event of bad weather on May 29, Keen said the ceremony will be moved indoors with limited seating.

What’s next? The new prices will begin with the fall sports. The funds are used to support the athletic pro-gram to hire more coaches to provide more teams and better supervision.

What’s next? Verhoff said the dollars will be placed in the district’s Capital Projects Fund and will be earmarked for the commu-nity stadium.

What’s next? Sodexo has offered a one-time $300,000 donation to the district to put into facilities. Verhoff said the money could be used for a HVAC upgrades.

Despite her problems, Jade is a happy dog. She might not have any teeth, but she still has a

big smile.This black pit bull had her teeth

pulled out by her previous owner when they forced her to breed. She’s covered with scars from past injuries and very large tumors. Despite her traumatic life, she absolutely loves people and sniffs anybody that passes by.

But Jade is afraid of other dogs, so she spends her days in the office of Rebecca Ste-vens, executive director of the Humane Society for Hamilton County. That’s because there’s liter-ally no other space for this sick dog.

And this isn’t a unique situation. The shelter – the only one for the entire coun-

ty – is extremely full. One cat that has leukemia lives in their conference room. The problem is compounded by the fact that there’s no area to quarantine sick or contagious animals.

Take a tour and people will see there’s no wasted space.

“There’s an animal everywhere,” Stevens said. “We are dealing with a lot of serious challenges in a lot of areas, but we are trying to overcome them to the best of our abilities and save these lives.”

The Human Society for Hamilton County is still committed to remaining a no-kill shelter, which means they only euthanize pets in extreme situ-ations. They don’t turn away any intakes, even if the shelter doesn’t have room.

As a result, there’s a huge reliance on using foster homes for nearly half the dogs and cats in their care.

At their May board meeting, there was talk about fundraising for a new larger facility. There have been no public announcements, but they are looking to launch a capital campaign to raise up to $7 million.

At the end of May, there were 219 cats in the shelter’s care, 101 in foster homes and 113 dogs in their care, 32 in foster homes.

The animals are dealing with upper respiratory

infections and eye infections because the pets are kept in such close quarters that it’s difficult to avoid spreading illnesses.

As a result, the shelter spends more than $100,000 on medical care, a cost that is entirely paid for through private donations and not from taxpayer money.

Stevens said foster homes are an absolute necessity to remain no-kill and open admission, but it can be hard to recruit new people. There are so many roadblocks.

Some people are afraid they will get too at-tached and won’t be able to give up the pet. Some dogs and cats have special needs, such as problems with other animals. And of course there are many misconceptions, such as cost.

But the shelter pays for any expenses such as medical care, crates, food and even kitty litter.

“It doesn’t cost you any money or a lot of your time. All you need to provide is love,” said Paula Fuccillo.

Fundraising for the futureStevens said one common misconception is

that the county pays for all of the shelter’s costs. In reality, taxpayer dollars only cover the first seven days that an animal is in the shelter. From then on, all of the rest of the financial support comes from private donations.

If a dog is hit by a car, the entirety of that cost is privately funded. As a result, the Humane Society is always looking for new donors.

The cost per animal averages out to be about $8.50 per day.

Because there are so many costs, most of the donations go toward basic needs.

The hardest challenge will be raising money for a new shelter and the biggest help would be finding someone to donate land for the approxi-mately 20,000 square-foot facility.

A newly built Gigi’s Cupcakes opened its doors for the first time at 2454 E. 146th St., Westfield.

Gigi’s specializes in fresh cupcakes, but its other mer-chandise includes stuffed

cookies, muffins, cheesecakes and beverages such as iced tea, lemonade and Coke products at this store in particular. This location also has an espresso bar, and not all Gigi’s stores include that.

An espresso bar isn’t the only addition to this location in particular though.

“One of the things exclusive to this location is the Monon Social Room included in the store,” general manager Lauren Burton said. “It is a place for parties and events, and it’s going to be a place to gather if business people have a need to sit and have a spot to get their work done. Especially with the coffee and muffins as well, it’s a great place for them to get their business done and be in a relaxing environment.”

Gigi’s bakes its cupcakes fresh in the store daily, yet that is not the only thing that sepa-rates it from other cupcake chains. Gigi’s also doesn’t like to waste their goods at the end of the day, so they decide to give back to the community.

“We have a list of folks who we can call and donate leftover cupcakes to and they take them to shelters,” Burton said. “Or sometimes we will take them to our business partners in the plazas

we are located in. We don’t waste anything. We either donate or take the items to build relation-ships with those around us.”

Nick Pappas, the owner of all the Gigi’s Cup-cake stores in Indianapolis and the surrounding area, is personally thrilled to have a location in Westfield.

“We are absolutely proud to have another Hamilton County Gigi’s here in Westfield,” he said. “We have close ties to Hamilton County. We’ve raised our children here, this is our home, and

we are really happy that the community has ac-cepted Gigi’s cupcakes into their homes.”

Gigi’s has a different cupcake menu for each day of the week in addition to the daily baker’s special as well. Summer hours are 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 8:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday. The store offers free WiFi and also caters different events throughout the year. To view the daily menu, visit www.gigiscupcakesusa.com/westfieldindiana.

On June 7, the Westfield Parks Dept. hosted a free Bike Rodeo program to ensure its youngest resi-dents are safe while traveling on their bicycles at Quaker Park, 17501 Dartown Rd. Aimed at ages 6 to 12 and their families, the event was to teach safety, health, and fitness while celebrating National Trails Day. In addition to raffle prizes, Carmel Cyclery checked for proper helmet fitting and offered bike inspections and the Westfield Police Dept. provided information on safety as it applies to roads, trails and sidewalks.

Economic impact updateCompiled by Lauren Quintanilla

Two months ago, Current in Westfield interviewed sev-eral businesses and restaurants around the city about the impact of Grand Park’s opening. Now that the grand opening of the park is near, we returned to find out how/if things have changed during that span.

BIg HOffA’S BArBEqUE800 E. Main St. – 4.8 miles from Grand Park

SUPEr BOWl PHO112 E. Main St. – 4.2 miles from Grand Park

fIrST WATCH – THE DAYTIME CAfé1950 E. Greyhound Pass – 6.9 miles from Grand Park

CHICk-fIl-A14647 N Meridian St. – 7 miles from Grand Park

Previously, Big Hoffa’s said it was already having an eco-nomic impact and was looking forward to seeing how the year will go. Since then, general manager Noah Kline has nothing but positive things to say about Grand Park and the effect it’s had on the business.

“We are getting a lot more great new people that haven’t been here before, and not just from Indiana, from all over. We are getting traveling teams from other states that are coming to Grand Park,” said Kline. “Business has been crazy, crazy in a great way.”

Super Bowl Pho owner Leo Van said they have not seen any change in business downtown from the opening two months ago. Now, gen-eral manager Tony Nguyen agreed that it’s been difficult to see the full impact Grand Park will have on the business because they are right in the middle of one of the many construction projects.

“We haven’t noticed too much of a difference, things have picked up more on the weekends,” said Nguyen. “People are trying to avoid this road because of the construction.”

Two months ago, manager Lee Hyde was hopeful that First Watch would see improved sales on the weekend. To-day, Justin Westrich, operations manager, said it has seen many people coming in from park events and have noticed more and more young athletes coming in.

“We have definitely seen an uptick in business,” he said. “Grand Park is going to be great; I think everyone is pretty excited about it.”

Owner Patrick Tate previously said since the first week-end it has not seen much of a change outside normal busi-ness, but expected to see more teams during the summer when Grand Park is officially open. Now, lead supervisor Kim Daniels said that business has picked up but it is a little behind sales goals as a resut of the construction on U.S. 31.

“We have definitely noticed a higher volume of traffic,” said Daniels, who attributes the peak in business to the warmer weather and traffic from Grand Park. “We are breaking sales records this week.”

The U18 Sockers FC Club from Chicago defeated the Indiana United Academy 3-1 during a

showcase on June 7.

While Grand Park has 31 multi-purpose fields and 26 baseball dia-monds, the complex also offers recreation possibilities to residents and visitors with more than 10 miles of trails and its waterways.

One group, the Indy Admirals, are taking advantage of the man-made lakes at the park for remote control boating. The club, which has been in operation for 30 years, has been testing Grand Park ponds in search of becoming the new home for weekend races.

“We’ve been looking for a pond like this to hold regattas,” Lee Shroyer. “We’d like to eventually invite the nationals in here.”

The testing has been very positive and Shroyer said the club would like to use Grand Park “as long as they’ll let us in.”

“We’ve been working with them off and on for two years,” Shroyer said while controlling his sailboat in the water east of parking lot G. “It’s a very nice pond.”

One of the reasons members enjoy the pond is the way the breeze blows steady across it.

“It’s quiet and peaceful,” Pete Pippen said. “The pond is excellent and beautiful. The wind can get to it. We are tickled to death with it.”

Pippen said Grand Park also provides exposure to the club and sport.“Kids and parents are out here they’ll be gathering around the

fence,” he said.

outright public humiliation of those who convert the property of others without fair payment. Some organizations send slow accounts to a collection agency promptly and without fanfare. Others, attempt to consider circumstance. Why is the payment late? Can we rely on eventual remuneration?

But do we have a right to be indignant of folks who do not pay – at least not like we do? What right does the community at large have in keep-ing other people current? Should we be more compassionate or less? Can we judge the neigh-bor whose association dues are years behind yet still maintains a fleet of automotive toys? Can we criticize the unfulfilled pledge from the person in church with the Cadillac in the park-ing lot? When is a little public encouragement justified?

Commentary by Terry Anker

The now defunct Indianapolis Athletic Club had a policy of posting the names of members who were unwilling or unable to pay their bills in a timely fashion in a prominent place on the wall of the clubhouse. Deadbeats or not, it would con-vince the errant fellows to pay up. And, it would offer some prurient thrill to the collected mass that would routinely peruse the list with each new month. Some names would be surprising and might indicate an unusual financial problem for them or their companies. Others were famil-iar in the fraternity of slow-payers. Either they traveled so much that their mail (and their atten-tions) were lagging far behind the expectation of the accounting department; or as was more of-ten the case, they were habitual over-spenders, gladly charging today what they could not pay for tomorrow.

It always struck me as a highly effective, if somewhat direct, way to keep receivables under control. There are many points on the sliding scale from failing to collect what we’re owed to

Dave Brat, the Tea Party challenger to Virginia GOP House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, won the primary last Tuesday night in what irrefutably was a major upset. Brat took aim at Cantor’s support of immigration legislation that would give amnesty to those that entered the United States illegally. There are mixed reports out there, but Cantor spent well more than $1 mil-lion dollars on his campaign (and had more in reserve), while Brat spent in the neighborhood of just more than $100,000.  This is the first time since 1899 that a sitting majority leader had lost an election  – and remember, this was the primary.  Said Brat in a story posted on FoxNews.com: “If you go knocking door to door, you’ll know the American people think they’re in trouble. … It was a miracle.” Good to know there are some Republicans – and supporters – at-tempting to clean up the party. It’s also proof that a strong message means more than a brimming cache of cash.

For-your-amusement park

“Our culture is competent to implement almost anything and to

imagine almost nothing.”- Walter Brueggemann

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Well I just returned from my family’s annual pilgrimage to the best people-watching, and

as it turns out, educational, amusement park in the Midwest, Kings Island. Luckily for your

reading pleasure, it did not disappoint.We arrived about 30 minutes prior to the

gates opening, leaving me more than enough time to apply sunscreen to my pasty-white ginger offspring and to count tattoos among fellow park-goers. Standing in one location, I easily identified 21 ink lovers in less than 60 seconds.

We headed first to the Banshee, the new pipe coaster which claims to be the longest inverted one in the world. My youngest daugh-ter sat out, not quite ready to submit her little body to blackout-inducing G-forces. Oh, how I wish I had volunteered to stay with her. Even with prophylactic naproxen coursing through my bloodstream, I got off the ride with a pounding headache, feeling dizzy and slightly nauseous. Assuming my mild concussion would eventually abate, I continued on to more brain-jarring rides until just after lunch, when I finally called it quits. Clearly too old for that nonsense, I transitioned to gentle log flumes and the ‘80s Flashback Show. Michael and Bruce on the same stage!

The beauty of throwing in the towel that ear-ly of course is that I had hours to sit and judge fellow patrons while my family pressed on. The reoccurring themes? Obesity and immodest dress. Granted, Kings Island has a water park and the day was plenty hot, but if I never see a plus-size gal in a string bikini top riding the Rac-ers again in my life, that’ll be one less traumatic moment to address in counseling.

Even my 10-year-old asked why there were so many overweight people. As I sucked down a soft-serve cone, I explained about the Midwest weather and consequential lifestyle. Then over a pepperoni pizza, we discussed how you can be stuck indoors for six months but still be healthy. At Wendy’s on the way home, we decided we’d learned some valuable lessons about nutrition and ketchup.

Our teenager’s cell phone lies somewhere underneath loop four of Diamondback, our older daughter left in tears because she just “wanted to ride one more ride,” our younger son is combating addiction after failing to win a life-size gorilla on the ring toss and I am suffering a mild wrist sprain from the Haunted House Shoot-Out. Overall, though, we can chalk up another successful Kings Island venture for the Wilson clan. Peace out.

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

I keep a clipboard next to my bed where I attach newspaper articles, snippets from maga-

zines, photos, anything that might be an inspiration for my next col-umn. If I still can’t think of anything

funny to write by deadline, I just whack myself in the head until something dawns on me. In the past 13 years, I have done that 650 times, which should explain a lot.

On the top of the clipboard this week I inserted a little instruction pamphlet that came with a new device my dentist suggested I buy. I have several dental implements in my bathroom. He told me I needed this thingamajig because after Alyssa, the hygienist, dug away at my gums for 40 minutes last week, there was some bleeding. The doctor asked if bleeding had been a recurring problem, and I said yes – every six months when Alyssa digs away at my gums for 40 minutes.

The package arrived three days later. The box said: Hydro Floss – A New Generation of Oral Irrigators.

Yikes. This sounded like my mouth required not just a qualified dental professional, but a small team of agricultural workers, as well.

I opened the pamphlet and, as is always the case, the buyer is admonished not to use the product until all the directions have been read. There were four subsections on the first page, all related to eliminating the possibility of elec-

HUMOr

Jet stream for my mouthtrocution: DANGERS, WARNINGS, CAUTIONS and SAFEGUARDS.

These are not the kinds of words you want to see associated with a machine you are going to fill with water, plug into a wall socket and then insert into your mouth. The first caution is: Never let children use the Hydro Floss without supervision. Too bad, because with two of these gadgets, kids could have a great water fight.

Using the Hydro Floss requires a deft touch. The manufacturers recommend that you first practice in the mirror without the water stream.

The instructions say that once you feel profi-cient, you can fill the machine with warm water and begin. But now the manual warns you NOT to watch yourself in the mirror because, “this will cause a mess.”

Since I comb my hair and shave while looking in the mirror, I couldn’t imagine how this would be a problem. But it was. Water ended up every-where: the floor, the mirror, all over the walls. I even got some in my mouth.

Now that I’ve learned how to use it, I can recommend the Hydro Floss. I’d also suggest you buy the two-year extended warranty. And a good mop.

Editor,A few weeks ago I had the same thought

about the 3-way stop at 126th Street and Auman Drive, but then I really started to think about it. If my recollection serves me right, the Keystone project’s main goal was to help the flow of traf-fic on Keystone while providing safe crossing at the intersections. Don’t forget, the original INDOT plan was to widen Keystone Parkway and add more turning lanes and traffic signals. Be happy that didn’t happen. Zero to 50+ (30 is the posted speed limit) from Auman Drive to the 126th Street

and Keystone roundabout is not uncommon with the stop sign. If the stop sign were to be removed, the unimpeded traffic would pose a much bigger safety concern – not only to people entering from Auman but also the cars trying to get out of the neighborhood on the north side of 126th Street. To save fuel, fumes and frustration of a few motorists is hardly worth the thought of a traffic signal in a residential area. I would rather have the stop sign stay and the frustrated rush hour drivers take a different route.

Dick Gregory on stage – Comedian Richard Claxton “Dick” Gregory has lived a life far from

ordinary. He is listed on Comedy Central’s Top 100 Stand-Up Co-medians of All-Time, and in the

1960s helped bridge African-American comedy to Caucasian audiences with much success. Dick Gregory began performing comedy while in the U.S. Army in the mid 1950s. Through the use of irony and satire, he held up a lens to American society and its stereotypes, using comedy and social action to address injustice and discrimi-nation in American society. A performance in 1961 at the Chicago Playboy Club launched his national reputation; within a year, he played to sold-out audiences in nightclubs and became a popular television comedian.

MUSIC

By Joseph Knoop • [email protected] 

The annual patriotic program “keynote ad-dress” for Symphony on the Prairie will get an

added musical boost this year from songs of the First World War, which started 100 years ago.

Something else special about the 2014 “Star-Spangled Symphony” – the series’ most popular weekend – is that The World War I Medley, per-formed by the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra under the baton of assistant conductor David Glover, will feature harmonica player Michael Ru-nyan in his own arrangements of four doughboy favorites.

Runyan’s performance also will be his last as a symphony employee. He’ll retire after 28 years of service in the orchestra’s library at the end of August.

His interest in the harmon-ica goes back decades, and wanting to exploit his ability as a professional soloist with the orchestra is part of his motiva-tion for retiring at age 61.

There’s another musical reason, too.“Over the years, I’ve been writing composi-

tions and arrangements, and I haven’t had the time to put them into circulation in the wider markets,” Runyan said. “It just makes sense. It’s intellectual property that needs to be mon-etized, and I think it’s stuff people would love.”

A local example is no further away than the concerts of July 3-5, with longtime Symphony on the Prairie maestro Alfred Savia on the podium. The conductor and symphony artistic admin-istrator Zack French strategized over a World War I medley, and, assisted by Runyan, came up with “Over There,” “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary,” “Keep the Home Fires Burning,” and “Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old Kit Bag.”

Runyan’s kit bag consists of a variety of harmonicas, ranging from low to high, and they will be drawn upon in the program’s second half. That will include his role model Richard Hayman’s arrangement of “Home on the Range,” a Hayman-Runyan version of “Shenandoah,” and a new Runyan arrangement of Charlie McCoy’s “New River Gorge.”

As the symphony’s head librarian, Runyan’s main responsibility has been to make sure he and his staff get the right music on the right stand at the right time. And advances in com-puter technology in the course of the past three decades have made his job somewhat easier when it comes to finding materials conductors want to perform.

Still, physical copies of the music often have to be rented and performance rights always secured.

“Over the years I’ve helped the professional orchestra world with databases to track their performances,” Runyan said, which has made orchestral libraries more efficient in generating information vital to their organizations’ history:

What was performed when, in what setting, in what edition?

There are more burdensome chores, too. When orchestral parts are borrowed, how often have Runyan and his staff had to deal with messy parts, worn by handling and excessive, unerased markings?

“From my first day to my last,” Runyan replied with a sigh. “It’s the nature of the beast. Some-times it’s like borrowing a used handkerchief.”

Being with the Indianapolis Symphony Or-chestra from the inception in 1986 of its popular Yuletide Celebration spurred Runyan’s creativity. The later arrival of Jack Everly as principal pops conductor stretched the librarian-musician even further.

“Jack’s approach is to make a musical event out of (a pops concert), make a dramatic arc to it,” Runyan said. “Timing, the era of the pieces, the works – it’s just entertaining all the way through. I think it’s a blessing that I was here to be a part of that. It’s really been an honor.”Runyan

Commentary by Tania Castroverde Moskalenko

June is an extra special month at the Center for the Performing Arts. During the

weekend of June 20 the center will shine the spotlight on the Great American Songbook Hall of

Fame as part of the Krieg DeVault Encore Celebration.

It’s an exciting event designed to honor the legends of the American Songbook. This year the center’s artistic director, Michael Feinstein, honors the musical con-tributions of Nat King Cole, Linda Ronstadt, Shirley Jones and Johnny Mathis.

Each year the festivities expand, mak-ing Central Indiana the proud home of the Great American Songbook.

Main Street Productions of Westfield will be staging “The Diary of Anne Frank” for the next two

weekends – but with a twist. In this gripping new adapta-

tion by Wendy Kesselman of the original stage play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, newly discovered writings from the diary of Anne Frank - as well as survivor accounts - are interwoven to create an impas-sioned story of the lives of people persecuted under Nazi rule.

“We kept this version as pure as possible,” said director Kristin Wilson. “And everything is ac-curate to its time. There are pages and speeches from Anne’s diary that come directly from the book and are unedited.”

The cast, which ranges from newcomers to seasoned veterans, has worked hard to maintain the historical accuracy and raw emotion of the original play.

“I’ve read the diary several times, and it’s something I’ve always been fascinated by,” said Maggie Williams, who will star as Anne Frank. “It’s relatable because she is just an ordinary girl thrown into her situation.”

Williams has been involved with theatre for 10 years. However, adapting to this role has been different from any of her previous roles.

The Book of Mormon is coming to the Old National Centre June 17-22 and, while the show

is almost sold out, you still have a chance at tickets through a lottery.

The musical – winner of nine Tony Awards – will make a limited number of tickets available with a pre-show lottery. Entries will be accepted at the box office starting two and a half hours before each performance. Names of winners will be drawn two hours before the show for the tickets – priced at $25.

The Book of Mormon – which opened in 2011 – has been called one of the “filthiest” and “most offensive” shows on Broadway. Created by Matt Stone and Trey Parker – known for their ani-mated TV show South Park – is the story of two young missionaries who go to Uganda to try to convert residents to the Mormon religion.

“My love for musicals comes from Rogers and Hammerstein and all the classics on VHS and the local community theatre,” Parker said. “I wanted something happy and optimistic and structured in that way and just in the same way they would do it about people living in Oklahoma or Chinese Americans in San Francisco or people in the South Pacific. It was like, this is our theme and this was our group of people and it really was let’s try and make a cool, traditional musical first and then the Mormon thing was sort of this ‘Oh,

isn’t a fictional character,” she said. “There is more pressure trying to do a real person justice, but it’s been a good challenge.”

Much like Anne Frank’s family bonds through-out the play, the cast has developed a family-like atmosphere during rehearsals.

“Whenever you put on a show in an intimate space and everyone is on stage, you tend to get close and it is a very good bonding experience,” Williams said.

here’s the one – let’s do it about this.’”“That aesthetic and that choice the church

makes to make that kind of their public image seems to just fit with musical theatre,” Stone said. “There’s just something about their attitude that just makes it look like they’re about to burst into song.”

Riley Hospital for Children at Indiana University Health has been distinguished as the only na-

tionally ranked children’s hospital in Indiana by U.S. News & World Report,

which released its 2014-15 Best Children’s Hospi-tals rankings on June 10.

Riley at IU Health continues to be ranked among the top 50 pediatric facili-ties nationwide for a range of pediatric specialties. Notably, the hospital’s urol-ogy program has been named No. 2 in the country.

This year, fewer than 100 U.S. chil-dren’s hospitals were ranked in at least one of the 10 pediatric specialties U.S. News evaluates. Based on a combination of clinical data and reputation among pediatric specialist around the country, Riley at IU Health ranked in nine of these areas, including: cardiology & heart surgery, diabetes & endocrinology, gastroenterol-ogy & GI surgery, nephrology, neurology & neuro-

surgery, orthopedics, pulmonology and urology.“Recognition of this caliber is possible only be-

cause of the unshakable commitment our team shows to every patient and family member who steps foot inside our doors, whether for an asth-ma checkup or a life-saving heart transplant,” stated Riley President and CEO Dr. Jeff Sperring, a Noblesville resident. “That caring spirit is what

makes Riley a standout institution.” U.S. News introduced the Best Chil-

dren’s Hospitals rankings in 2007 to help families of sick children find the best medical care available. To gather clinical data, U.S. News sent a clinical questionnaire to 183 pediatric hospitals. More than 80 percent of each hospital’s score relied on patient outcomes and

the care-related resources each hospital makes available. The remaining percentage derived from a survey of 4,500 pediatric specialists, adminis-tered during a three-year period. The physicians were asked where they would send the sickest children in their specialty, regardless of location and expense.

Reducing student loan debt burden - President Barack Obama ex-panded a program that lets borrowers pay no more than 10 percent of their income every month – no matter when their loans originated. He also threw his support behind more sweeping Senate legislation targeting the issue. Obama said the rising costs of college have left America’s middle class feeling trapped. He put his pen to a presi-dential memorandum that he said could help an additional 5 million borrowers lower their monthly payments. Obama also announced he is directing the government to renegotiate contracts with federal student loan servicers to encourage them to make it easier for bor-rowers to avoid defaulting on their loans. And he asked Treasury and Education departments to work with major tax preparers to increase awareness about tuition tax credits and flexible repayment options available to borrowers.

Miracle Sushi and Modern Asian Cuisine res-taurant at the Shops at Providence across the street from Meijer, has combined the freshest

sushi available with a distinc-tive menu of modern Asian entrees to create a one-of-a-

kind restaurant that only a local owner could.And its location on Old Meridian Street pro-

vides ample parking without loosing the feel of being a big city destination.

When the Hwang family, owners of the Fish-ers Korean restaurant E. Miracle, announced they were closing their restaurant on Allisonville Road, they said they hoped to have a new Carmel res-taurant open in early 2014.

“So many of our customers drove over here from Carmel,” said Sean Hwang at the time. “We just thought we would bring our restaurant to them.”

Decorated with a tasteful blue-gray and black décor, the restaurant features a full bar high-lighted by a varied wine and sake selection and a series of custom martinis – but it’s the sushi bar that has early customers raving.

That’s because Miracle’s fish is sashimi-grade and never frozen. It’s flown in several times a week and packed in dry ice to make sure it’s of the highest quality.

“I can go to the sushi bar or go in the kitchen and eat the fish right there – that’s how fresh it is,” Hwang said.

Miracle alternates menus between lunch and dinner, with lunch costing between $10-$20 and dinner averaging $20-$30 per person, Hwang estimated.

People are freaking out about their personal savings - A recent Gallup poll found that 59 percent of those surveyed were very or moderately worried they won’t have enough money for retirement – by far their biggest concern. The latest National Retirement Risk In-dex from the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College says that more than half (53 percent) of households risk falling more than 10 percent short of the retirement income they’ll need to maintain their standard of living. More than 40 percent of retirees are also at risk of running out of money for daily needs, out-of-pocket spend-ing on health care or long-term care, according to the Employee Benefit Research Institute. Even more alarming, the National Bureau of Economic Research recently concluded that nearly one-quarter of Americans could not come up with $2,000 in 30 days if necessary, and another 20 percent would have to pawn or sell possessions to do so. That would mean nearly half of all Americans are financially stressed. SOURCE: MSN Money

Owner Sean Hwang said Miracle restaurant serves Modern Asian cuisine. (Staff photo)

But it’s the uniqueness of the menu that really stands out. And when considering the alternat-ing specials, it’s possible to eat here for months and never try the same meal twice.

Where else would you find mung bean kimchi pancakes, crispy roasted quail or handmade dumplings that combine jasmine rice, sausage, chive yogurt sauce and golden raisin chutney all on one menu?

And who could resist a banana spring roll, ginger chocolate ganache and red chili mango sorbet on streusel for desert?

It’s the unique menu and high-quality ingre-dients that has provided the new restaurant multiple repeat customers despite only opening its doors with little fanfare on May 30.

There are tons of distractions that can pre-vent a child from learning at school. Emotional problems, self-esteem issues, Attention Deficit

Disorder and troubles focusing are all a hindrance.

But some local organizers believe a few deep breaths and a centered peace of mind can help reduce these problems.

Body, Mind and Core, a yoga studio that opened in Carmel this past fall, is leading a cam-paign to try to bring yoga into public school.

Owners Matt and Natalie Hayden continually host events to raise funds to help pay for full-time instructors to teach students how to focus, stretch, relax and stay grounded.

After moving to Indianapolis one year ago, Matt got involved with a local yoga-based non-profit, called Mighty Lotus, and eventually was named director of the board. Mighty Lotus now has weekly yoga classes at two Indianapolis Public Schools: SUPER School 19 and Eleanor Skillen School 34. And Natalie taught yoga to students at West Clay Elementary during ISTEP week this year.

Mighty Lotus organizers know parents and teachers could be skeptical of yoga, so they have conducted and compiled detailed research that shows that students who participate in yoga classes focus better in school and have fewer behavioral problems in class.

“I’ve always told Natalie, ‘I wish I would have had yoga in elementary school. I might not have gotten into trouble,’” Matt said with a laugh.

One issue that has come up is that people tend to lump yoga with religious practices because of its meditation and inspirational man-tras. But recent court cases have ruled that yoga is not considered a religion and can be taught in schools.

The goal is to pay instructors about $1,800 a year to teach the classes. Matt said this is a better system than relying on unpaid volunteers because it helps recruit specially trained instruc-tors who know how yoga can benefit childhood education.

To raise funds and awareness, Body, Mind and

Pushing for yoga in public schools

ExErCISE

Core offers weekly “Community Flow” classes where donations are raised. In April, they con-ducted a fashion show with a silent auction that raised $3,500 for their cause, which means two more schools are now funded.

Their next big fundraiser is an after-party for the Monumental Yoga event in downtown India-napolis from 6 to 11 p.m. on June 21.

Matt recently met with former Indianapolis Colts player Marlin Jackson to find ways they can team up. Jackson not only raises funds for his Fight for Life Foundation, but he regularly practices yoga himself.

Of course, you don’t have to be a football play-er to excel in yoga, which Natalie said is why it is so beneficial for kids and teenagers. So many girls have issues with accepting their bodies at a young age, and she believes yoga can help them get in touch with who they are.

“I was clumsy and klutzy, but I grew into my own when I found yoga,” she said. “This is some-thing where you don’t have to be an athlete. You can be awkward or shy and you can find some-thing that you can succeed at build your esteem. You can be the star on this little two-by-six foot yoga mat.”

Eli Lilly now part of testosterone-replacement lawsuit – Abbott Laboratories, AbbVie Inc. must face lawsuits consolidated in federal court in Chicago that claim they hid the risks of using the testosterone-replacement drug AndroGel, a panel of judges ruled. The market for testosterone replacement drugs, which include AndroGel and Axiron, made by India-napolis-based Eli Lilly and Co., is worth $1.6 billion annually. The consolidation will encompass all suits against makers of testosterone-replacement pills, including Lilly, the panel said in its order. Lilly had $178.7 million in Axiron sales in 2013. The decision to collect the AndroGel cases comes after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration said it will re-examine the safety of testosterone-replacement drugs after stud-ies showed the medicine posed an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.

Commentary by Jordan Fischer

The English language has a lot of words that look alike. Some of them are related, some have

nearly identical mean-ings, and others just don’t mean the same

thing at all. The latter tends to cause confusion when speakers aren’t familiar with the differ-ences. To help you avoid a mix-up, here are a few words that share looks, but not meanings.

Contingent and contingency: You probably know the word contingency. It’s often paired with plan and means a possible event. Its adjec-tival form, contingent, means subject to chance or dependent on something not yet certain (i.e. Your ability to go on vacation is contingent upon your request for days off being accepted).

The noun contingent, however, means a repre-sentative group or a quota of troops. The correct way to use it would be to say, “A contingent from the Associated Press has asked the White House for greater transparency.” Often those unfamiliar with the word will erroneously use contingency in a situation like this rather than contingent.

Levee and levy – A levee is a structure built to prevent a river from flooding nearby land. To

Don’t mistake these wordslevy is to impose a tax or draft.

Regimen and regiment – A regimen is a regulated course of diet, exercise or manner of living. A doctor might prescribe a regimen of antibiotics to counter a bacterial infection in a patient. A regiment is a military unit.

Reign and rein – This one is a little confusing. A reign is the rule of a monarch, and reins are straps used to control an animal. However, phras-es like “take the reins” – to take control – and “free rein” – to be without constraints – create, an artificial similarity between the words under the brain’s label of “words that mean control.”

Desert and dessert – You’d think people would have learned this one by now, but I’ve seen it messed up everywhere from billboards to restaurant menus to websites. A dessert is the course after dinner – typically something sweet like pie or ice cream. A desert is a barren or un-inhabitable place. If you’re eating a desert after dinner, you’re doing it wrong.

Commentary by Don Knebel

The Palace of Westminster, lying along the west bank of the River Thames, is the official name of

the building housing England’s Parlia-ment. Although most of the eight-acre complex was built in the 19th

century, its traditions reflect a much longer history. The original Palace of Westminster, the Lon-

don home of English kings before becoming the meeting place of Parliament, was almost com-pletely destroyed by fire in 1834. Parliamentary committees rejected proposed classical designs they thought suggested the White House and U. S. Capitol, considered symbols of rebellion. They selected instead a style known as “perpendicular Gothic,” with three towers more than 300 feet tall. The building, completed in 1870, includes 1,100 rooms, 100 stairways, three miles of hallways and a shooting range. “Big Ben” is a bell, housed in the Elizabeth Clock Tower. The Chambers for the House of Commons were rebuilt after being bombed in World War II and intentionally has fewer seats than members.

The building incorporates traditions from ear-lier eras. The Lord Speaker of the House of Lords sits on a red sack of wool reflecting the central

Westminster’s home of traditionsimportance of wool to England’s medieval econ-omy, a custom dating from the 14th century. A box of snuff near the entrance to the Commons Chamber has been kept full since at least the 17th century, when smoking was banned. Mem-bers of Parliament from opposing parties face each other on historic green-covered benches, with two red lines on the floor between them demarking an area where no one may stand. The lines are said to be two sword lengths apart to prevent dueling. MPs are expected to hang their swords on pink ribbons in the cloak room.

The best time to visit the Palace of Westmin-ster is on Wednesdays, when the Prime Minister fields questions from the Leader of the Opposi-tion, accompanied by heckling and cat calls. The session has gotten less raucous since the ques-tioning time was moved to before lunch, when MPs used to down a pint or two to get ready, but it is still entertaining. Seats in the now shielded Strangers’ Gallery are limited, so plan ahead.

The featured project speaks to many luxury outdoor living trends from the need for shade to

the love of employing natural materials. This hidden patio almost feels neglected from

the rest of the property. It’s nestled off the side of the house, not necessarily easy to get to and is recessed into the grade by three substantial cut-limestone slab steps. And its’ perfect. Exactly what the homeowners wanted to experience when we planned this escape from reality for them. It’s there place to manage a little down time from the kids, read a book and enjoy a glass of wine.

SHADE STRATEGIESHow to generate appropriate shade is perhaps

the most frequently asked question we respond to. Of course shade trees are very affective, but waiting several years for impact is typically not preferred. Umbrellas are fantastic too, and we employ them often, but can get in the way.

Often, it’s a combination of strategies that bring the hoped for shade and the structur-ally sound pergola is a preferred tool. A well-planned pergola can echo architectural details from the interior of the home serving to blend the spaces together. It can formalize an area or naturalize it based upon construction details and paint palette. But mostly it simply creates a nice dappled shade area that travels with the

path of the sun.This pergola serves to create the sense of

space that we often refer to. It offers a ceiling and boundary to the patio and provides a marvel-ous structure for a wisteria to spread itself on.

Expect to see creative shade creating innova-tions from brilliant minds across the globe in the next few years. Sure, we love the sun and the happiness a few hours absorbing those nu-

trients provides. But we also love our skin and being healthy requires fewer sunburns and more dappled shade.

We are always on the lookout for new trends, styles and updates that can transform your liv-

ing spaces. Here, I’ve compiled a list of cool ideas for kitchen and bathroom updates that may in-

spire you to jumpstart a few summer renovation projects. Take a look and start feeling creative.

Kitchen• Floating shelves: Instead of storing their

dishes away in cupboards and cabinetry, more homeowners are choosing to display them as part of the kitchen aesthetic. Float-ing shelves are designed to be installed on a wall without showing any hardware or stabilizing brackets. 

• Brass, black and gold metals: In ev-erything from faucets to cabinet fixtures, brass, black and brushed gold have become trendier trendy than traditional silver.

• Colorful backsplashes: Looking for a way to put a pop of color into your neutral kitch-en? Try using colored tiles to create a visu-ally exciting backsplash. Tiles are so versa-tile that you can experiment with designs using solid colors, patterns or mosaics.

• Corner sinks: Most kitchens don’t utilize the corner for anything more than a coun-tertop or appliance. A corner sink can free up your countertop space while bring a unique and trendy look to the kitchen.

• Outside kitchens: For the family who enjoys eating, cooking and entertaining in the sunny weather, an outside kitchen is the perfect set-up. Outside kitchens are growing in popularity around the country, because they are so impressive, glamorous and functional at the same time.

Bathroom• Stand alone tubs: Because they take up

less space than the traditional tiled-in-tub, many homeowners are choosing to install a freestanding tub. This also frees up space to create a luxurious modern shower.

• Luxury showers: When it comes to re-laxing and unwinding after a tough day, showers are becoming more popular than bathtubs. Look for spacious showers that

don’t include a traditional bench seat.• Innovative storage: Bathrooms always

seem overcrowded with beauty products, shaving kits, soaps, electronics and more. Maximize your storage space by taking ad-vantage of moveable storage, deep cabinet drawers and behind the door storage.

• Glamorous lighting: A great lighting scheme in the bathroom can help you start and end your day in the right mood. Ditch your traditional overhead, vanity lighting for some innovative LED backlighting or stylish wall sconces. Install an overhead light or chandelier for an extra touch of elegance.

• Smart electronics and appliances:  Technological advances like touch-less faucets, high efficiency toilets and show-erheads that conserve water are in high demand.
