The first words that come to mind for Leah Mc-Grath this month include, “It’s hard to believe it’s

been one year already, actually. It’s gone fast.”

McGrath’s first year as Fishers’ deputy mayor comes to an end this month. The Pendleton native said she first found her heart for public service at Purdue University, where she began by studying engineering before an internship spurred a switch to communications and political science.

McGrath spent four years working with the Indi-ana Association of Cities and Towns before a unique opportunity presented itself.

“I had regular communication with (Mayor Scott Fadness) about some of the current public policies we were working on that affected cities and towns,” McGrath said. “He texted me one day and said, ‘Hey, could we get together for a cup of coffee next week?’ I said sure … and I fully expected we would be talking about the legislation we’d been working on. Instead, he had another idea — and that was to come work here as his deputy mayor.”

Upon taking on the new role, McGrath immediately began tackling some large projects.

“I would say if there is a theme of my first year in terms of the projects I have been working on or a part of, it’s really about proactive planning, being thoughtful about the place we are creating and sus-taining,” she said. “The cornerstone project would be Fishers 2040. It’s the first time we as a community and the leadership here has put together a long-range comprehensive plan.”

Working through challenges with an open mind, McGrath said she has been able to see the fruits of her labor as she’s tried new things and taken on new challenges.

McGrath celebrates first year with Fishers

“You just don’t know what you don’t know, so I’ve tried to take that attitude with me so I can learn and serve better. It’s been a lightning-speed pace. It’s been a lot of fun, but it’s come with a lot of challenges,” she said. “To be able to accomplish (Fishers 2040) in my first year is incredibly rewarding, and I lucked out because I didn’t come into this alone … The City of Fishers has some of the absolute best professionals and a team that is hard working, that is dedicated and very collaborative to getting things done for our community. So, I was lucky.”

Deputy Mayor Leah McGrath speaks about her pas-sion for Fishers’ offerings:

“The areas that I would love to see our residents explore when it comes to our parks are some of these gems that just take you into nature and allow you to explore. Whether it’s Heritage Park, Ritchey Woods, Cheeney Creek or Flat Fork Creek Park, we’ve got them all over our community. I feel really fortunate to have access to that, but everybody has access to that. That is something I’m passionate about, and I want more people to feel encouraged to go out and explore.

“It’s the same thing here in the Nickel Plate District. I think people are still discovering it, and it’s changed so much so quickly that there are so many things here people don’t know about yet.”

As many as four additional bars or restau-rants could make their way to

the downtown Fishers area due to the city acquiring four new, three-way alcohol special permits — which allow for serving beer, wine and liquor — from the Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission through the General Assembly.

City Attorney Chris Greisl — who negotiated for the special permits with Deputy Mayor Leah McGrath on the city’s behalf — briefed the Fishers City Council on the new

permits at its June 20 meeting, during which the council approved a method by which the per-mits would be granted.

“The Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commis-sion issues alcohol permits based on a quota system. One permit is issued for roughly every 1,500 people in the population,” Greisl said. “Due to this quota system, growing communities like Fishers have experienced shortages in their permits, and our greatest effect is obviously felt with economic development.”

Greisl thanked District 37 State Representa-tive Todd Huston for his work spearheading a bill that was adopted by the Indiana General Assembly in March and went into effect July 1.

“This act allows the Indiana Alcohol and To-bacco Commission to issue four new, three-way permits in Fishers to sell alcoholic beverages for

on-premise consumption without regarding the quota provisions,” Greisl said.

The permits must be used within the city’s downtown district and, unlike typical permits from the ATC, cannot be transferred from the premise for which they’re issued, will be sold for $40,000 rather than auctioned off to the highest bidder, and permit applicants will have to enter into a written agreement with the city, which must be approved by the city council, regarding the business looking to use the permit.

The city currently has approximately 50 busi-nesses with active alcohol permits. Greisl said negotiations began with seeking 10 additional special permits, but that the city’s ongoing spe-cial partial census numbers will add to Fishers’ number of permits based on the ATC’s regular quota process.

Fishers residents and friends Andy Baumgartner and Chris Ball, hosts of the

Permanent Relegation podcast, are inviting area card players into a eu-

chre tournament for charity.Baumgartner and Ball record their podcast

every other Tuesday at Chatham Tap, 8211 E. 116th St., which also will host the Game of Kings tournament at 6:30 p.m. July 20.

Shortly after founding their podcast — which takes it title from the pair’s self-dep-recating sense of humor plus love for soccer — Baumgartner and Ball began inviting on and interviewing front office personnel, coaches and players from the Indy Eleven soccer team.

The duo conducted the inaugural Game of Kings event as a chance to promote Indy Eleven fan and player interaction while raising money for a local charity. Last year’s 24-team tournament included seven squads made up of Indy Eleven players or team staff, and the hosts anticipate a bigger and better turnout this year.

“We raised around $500 last year for char-ity, and we’re hoping to at least double that this year,” Baumgartner said.

Euchre tourney to benefit charity

Registration into the tournament is $50 per two-person team, with proceeds benefit-ting Playworks Indiana, a charity Indy Eleven forward Eamon Zayed has experience working with.

“They devote resources and money to help impoverished children and help them with organized sports and learn how to work with each other and see what its like to join a pas-sion with other kids,” Ball said. “We decided it made more sense than ever to have Play-works Indiana as our main charity.”

For more, or to register, visit permanentrel-egation.com. The winning team takes home a wrestling-style championship belt, and the highest-placing, non-Indy-Eleven pairing will also win a team prize pack including tickets, jerseys, an autographed ball and gift cards from Chatham Tap and Big Lug Canteen.

We have more businesses participating and more artists and performers participating.”

In all, 27 businesses throughout downtown Fishers are participat-ing with artistic displays of some kind.

“The lineup we have participating this year, in terms of the artists and performance types, is an amazing variety. There’s something for everybody, for sure,” Vare said. “We'll have

Nickel Plate Players to present ‘Indiana – The Musical’ to celebrate bicentennialHistory

onStageBy Sam Elliott • [email protected]

Oklahoma isn’t the only state with a musi-cal named after it anymore.

Fishers-based the-ater company, the Nickel Plate Players, is

bringing “Indiana – The Musical” to the city this summer to celebrate the state’s 200th birthday as an official Indiana Bicentennial Commission project. The debut performance is 6 p.m. July 16 at Balmoral Golf Club.

“About two years, ago we started thinking that it would be good to do something for the bicentennial celebration,” Nickel Plate Players Executive Director Ashton Wolf said. “I had written a song for the bicentennial called 'It's Still America (to Me).' It's a patriotic song, and I figured out how to put that song in a musical we did last year at the amphi-theater called 'Heartlight,' and it worked out really well.”

Wolf sent a video of that song’s perfor-mance to Brenda Myers, president and CEO of Hamilton County Tourism, which came on as a NPP sponsor in 2015.

“About three or four days later, she sent me an email and said, 'You know, there's grant money available for bicentennial proj-ects,'” Wolf said. “Well, we were waiting in the wings with an idea, so we wrote a pro-posal to create a new bicentennial musical for Hamilton County and the state of Indiana … and we got it. That got us going.”

Wolf rounded up a team of 10 local writers and, with the help of Noblesville historian David Heighway, began fishing through Indi-ana’s history for highlights to include in the script.

“He started feeding me timelines of events over the past 200 years, and that's what got us going,” Wolf said. “It was easy enough to look at the timeline of events and go, 'Boring, boring, oh I'll take that, boring, I'll take that, etc.’ So, by committee, we chose the scenes we thought might make the best fodder for a musical theater production.”

The musical follows the cast and produc-tion staff of a film crew as they shoot the movie “Indiana – The Musical.”

“That gives us a theatrical device to jump all over 200 years of history,” Wolf said.

Kyle Martin plays Sam, the eccentric direc-tor hot off the latest Hollywood blockbuster tasked with delivering the story of the Hoo-sier state.

“I'm a film buff, so he's a fun character to play,” Martin said. “He's a very over-the-top character, he's very obnoxious, he’s not a villain by any means — he may not be the antagonist, but he is an antagonist — so he's a fun person to play in that regard … He's the bookmark and the linchpin of the scenes and keeps things moving along, but ultimately the star of the show is the music and the arrangements Ashton put together. That's the humbling thing about being the lead in a musical — the music is really the star of the show.”

Wolf wrote original music for the show, including opening number “Everyone’s Wel-come in Hamilton County” and the rap-style “We got Gas!” — for a scene about Indiana settlers discovering natural gas underground — among others. His patriotic song “It’s Still America (to Me)” closes the show.

Accurate scenes of Indiana’s history portrayed in the musical range from four presidential visits to Noblesville, the natural gas boom and William Conner to a 1900 gun fight in Carmel and the squirrel stampede of the early 1800s.

“You can’t make this stuff up,” Wolf said. “To make a long story short, Ohio had a drought and the squirrels couldn't find any-thing to eat, so they invaded Indiana and ate the cornfields, all the crop fields and almost ruined the economy.

“It’s going to be a history lesson, but it’s going to be fun,” he added. “We wanted to make it interesting and fun, but at the same time, there’s a tremendous history here with the bicentennial celebration, and we’re ex-cited to do it.”

The Nickel Plate Players plan to present five performances of “Indiana – The Musical” across four different Fishers venues this summer. Show times, dates and locations include:•6 p.m. July 16 – Balmoral Golf Club, 10101 Hamilton Hills Ln.•5 p.m. July 24 – The Historic Ambassador House, 10595 Eller Rd.• 7:30 p.m. July 29 and 30 – Ji-Eun Lee Music Academy, 10029 E. 126th St.• 7 p.m. Aug. 27 – Nickel Plate District Amphitheater, 6 Municipal Dr.

Q U O T e O f T h e W e e k

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The 2016 dance season is over, culminat-ing in a six-day trip to Myrtle Beach for na-

tionals. So much to say, only 350 words to convey. Now only 325. Here we go.

Girls just want to have fun. On the drive home, my daughter lamented that she had just spent a week at the ocean but only swam in it twice. When I reminded her that she was there to dance, not frolic on the beach, she announced: “That’s just stu-pid. Why not just have it in Indianapolis?” Fair enough. And much closer.

When left to their own devices, girls do have a lot of fun. Starting dance par-ties on the strip with sketchy passengers in idling cars; writing and producing a high-ly questionable but immensely entertain-ing rap song; sneaking un-choreographed moves into long-rehearsed routines … these kooky kids have imaginations after all!

All dance moms are not created equal. I realized about halfway through the trip that I was not part of the popular crowd. Try as I might to hang with “the fun moms,” I cherish alone time. I love going to bed at 9 p.m. And by God, if I’m near a beach, even one with a conspicuous ab-sence of sand dollars, I’ll be on it. I know I missed out on several juicy conversations, social power walks and delightful bottles of white, but this ginger dance mom earned a C+ tan and a renewed acceptance of self.

Not all dance teams are created equal either. Our girls danced well, but had their booty shorts handed to them by larger, more competitive teams. It was somewhat of a rude awakening for me but also confirmed what I already knew. We’re with a studio who puts fun and friendship first, not perfection. And I’m good with that.

I have a terrible short-term memory. I witnessed a two-car traffic accident one morning and was the sole pedestrian witness. When the cop interviewed me, I couldn’t recall any details. None. “So, you didn’t really see anything, ma’am?” Nope. I guess not.

But I do know a good rap song. Peace out.

Smelling a rat,seeing a snake?

And now it gets hyper-interesting. We as-sume you know that the FBI decided last week that presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) was “extremely careless” in the way she handled classified emails on a private server (Oopsie!), but, hey, there isn’t enough for a recommenda-tion to the Department of Justice for criminal charges to be brought against the former secretary of state. “As the Secretary has long said, it was a mistake to use her personal email and she would not do it again. We are glad that this matter is now resolved,” said FBI Director James Comey. Is it? Not if you ask the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Donald Trump, the name-calling flamethrower. He immediately opined on social media that the “system is rigged” and was calling for a special prosecutor. One wag on Twitter noted that as the announcement was being made, Clinton and President Barack Obama were together on the campaign trail, and that if anyone believed that was a coincidence, one would be a fool. Perhaps. We’re trying to make sense of the decision. Brought down to our level, which is way, way down the ladder, does that mean if we’re pulled over for do-ing 45 mph in a 30 mph zone, we simply tell the constable, “I apologize, officer, but I didn’t intend to speed.” The announcement came the day after we celebrated independence from tyrannical elites. We’re not sure that fully is the case. Of course, as we’ve written before, if anyone thought Clinton would get more than a hand slap, we have some south-central Florida real estate for you. If interested, you really should have an affinity for Burmese pythons.

Commentary by Terry Anker

We all want to help. It is human nature; or at the very least, we still can claim it among the qualities in the better part of our selves. When someone else is suffering, it gives us an opportunity to reach out in support of their need. They get a little boost, and we get to feel good about ourselves. Who loses in that equation, right? Moreover, life teaches that we are on the upward slant of life one minute and on the downward the next. So, our aid somehow guarantees that someone will help us when our fortunes are down. Let’s call it an investment in the Karma bank.

Whatever the motivation, self-interest or altruism that leads us down the path, we all find ourselves, at one point or another, in a giving state of mind. We give money. We give time. We give advice. We give lots of advice. We give support. We give a hand up. We give. We give. We give. The only thing, perhaps better said – the only question that

we might consider, is are we giving what’s needed? Are we giving what’s wanted?

Some people think that doing anything is the same as doing something. Don’t misun-derstand the instinct. It is good to share – especially if by choice and not government decree. But when we confuse the general for the specific, are we really serving? If water is needed and we send coins, is thirst quenched? If tough love is the order of the day, do our sweet words fit the bill? Are we simply doing anything instead of doing something – the thing? If we focus on our own actions instead of the needs of others, are we really serving our desire to be valued rather than the legitimate re-quirement of the target of our largess?

Asleep at the wheel

Dick Wolfsie is an author, colum-nist and speaker. Contact him at [email protected].

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

I have tried many things over the years to get a better night’s sleep. I once took Ambien,

but when I woke up in the morn-ing, I discovered I had mown the entire front lawn in the dark. I

tried allergy medicine, but it made me a little goofy. Growling at my-self in the mirror isn’t normal.

Why do I sleep well on a bus? Nothing about a bus lends itself to sleep-ing. The seats are hard, the space is cramped, and it’s usually hot.

I decided to simulate the conditions on a bus that make me nod off. I asked my wife to talk to me like a tour guide, to drone on about how the Greeks built the Acropolis or how the Romans constructed the Appian Way. Mary Ellen felt dumb talking to me from the foot of the bed. I asked her to rock the bed back and forth so I’d feel like I was really on the bus. That’s when she got off the bus and slept on the couch.

I took a hard-back, metal folding chair and sat on it next to my bedroom window while

bouncing up and down like I was on a bus. But I was still wide awake after 30 minutes. Maybe it’s the sun that makes me drowsy, so I shone a floor lamp directly in my eyes. No luck. What else could I do? Mary Ellen wouldn’t let me invite 30 strangers over to sit around the bed.

Wait! The bus trips are during the day, and I’m trying to sleep at night. So I got back into my folding chair at high noon. The sun was pouring in on my face. Suddenly I felt myself getting sleepy, very sleepy. Zzzz…

It worked. I slept from noon until 8 p.m.,

sitting straight up in the chair, leaning against my bedroom window. My insomnia was cured.

Two hours later, it was time for bed. I got under the covers and just couldn’t fall asleep.

Go figure.

I tried allergy medicine, but it made me a

little goofy. Growling at myself in the mirror

isn’t normal.

3,059 homes pended in May 2016, which was a 3 percent increase over May 2015. Homes priced more than $300,000 contributed to the majority of last month’s growth in pended sales.

The average sales price rose 1.4 percent compared to last year, now at $276,505. Meanwhile, in-ventory tightened 9.3 percent year to date.

Best defense against ticks – Short of staying inside forever, there’s no guarantee against tick bites. However, you can lessen the risks by spraying your clothes with prometherin. Take your clothes outside and spray them. This lasts for about a week. Also, products with eucalyp-tus oils can be used on your skin as repellants. Finally, do a tick check when you come inside. If you find a tick, carefully pull it straight out without squeezing it. A tick removal device works best for this.

Anyone who has spent time on the bleachers cheering on children or a favorite sports teams knows that

these bench seats can become incredibly un-comfortable. Why does sitting on hard wood or metal stadium seating cause so much pain?

“There are various reasons this is painful,” said Jeremy Enz, a physical therapist at IU Health. “Two of the main causes are that the benches are hard, so we become sore in our ‘sit bones’ (ischial tuberosities). And since bleachers have no back support, we tend to slouch, which causes an unnatural curve of the spine. This isn’t detrimental for short periods of time, but most sporting events last for an hour or more.”

Improper posture caused by prolonged sit-ting in the bleachers eventually causes strain on the low back and core muscles, not to men-tion the discomfort of the hard surface. The solution is simple.

“Maintaining proper posture is very impor-tant. It is difficult, due to the lack of proper sup-

port,” stated Tiffany Thacker, FNP, a registered nurse and coordinator for the Spine Program at IU Health North. “Most people want to lean for-ward with their elbows on their knees. This cre-ates more pressure on your lower back and will cause more discomfort later. The positioning of most bleachers places our hips lower than our knees, which exacerbates the pressure on the

low back. Try to maintain proper pos-ture while sitting on bleachers.”

When you’re not at the game, be sure to maintain an exercise program that focuses on core strength, which will help with the so-called “bleacher back.”

“Invest in a stadium chair,” Enz said. “These are portable chairs with cushioned seats, seat backs, and some

even have arm rests that are designed to lock onto bleachers.”

“You can also use a blanket to help make the experience less painful,” Thacker said. “If it is at all possible, bring a folding chair with you and set it up on the sidelines. This will provide bet-ter body alignment.”

When you do start to feel the onset of pain, both experts suggest getting up and moving around.

Indy Film Fest: Amy’s top five

Where’s Amy? is a photo column by Amy Pauszek, a society girl and film producer and partner with Ever Film Productions, LLC. She may be reached at [email protected].

Commentary by Amy Pauszek

The 2016 Indy Film Fest kicks off July 14 and runs through July 24. It’s one of my favorite film festivals because

many of the films shown will be having their world premiere here in Indiana. Two amazing films are slated for opening and closing nights,

“Little Men” and Morris From America.” Trust me, you won’t want to miss these exciting films or the after parties and the chance to meet indie filmmakers, producers and actors from around the world. As a local film producer, I love seeing what’s hot, fresh and who is making waves in the indie film industry. The Indianapolis Museum of Art is hosting the festival again this year. Two films I selected for my top five were actually filmed in Indiana and the rest are films that will leave the audience with questions and asking for more. Indy Film Fest Executive Director Craig Mince of Carmel said “the core group who help run the festival are a team of people who believe in the unifying power of film - and they dedicate an unbelievable number of hours to prove that commitment.” Come experience the Indy Film Festival and help make dreams come true for filmmakers from around the world. For more, visit indyfilmfest.org.

motorsport that is still going strong today. Indianapolis 500 race fans will love this film, which has dramatic re-enact-ments with a touch of modern contributors who relate and explain the history of these epic races. The film is in English but has some Italian subtitles. It’s interesting, witty and has beautiful Italian cinematography – an IFF must see.

3. “70 Acres in Chicago, Cabrini Green”Filmed over the course of 15 years, the documentary film

asks the question what happens when a mixed-income hous-ing experiment collides with reality? The film centers around three public housing residents and how their lives were turned upside down when their community is torn apart in the name of progress. Cabrini is being demolished as part of a national plan to replace public housing with mixed income communities. Critics contend that the motivation is economic gain, as public housing’s prime real estate is too valuable for the low-income black communities that live there. The film chronicles neighborhood upheaval on Chicago’s most hotly contested 70 acres of land. This film makes the audience open their eyes to situations that happen every day to low-income communities and their families.

4. “Reparation”A powerful psychological thriller shot in Indiana about

a troubled Air Force veteran who finds clues to his buried memories in his young daughter’s art, while confronted by a stranger looking for answers to his past. The story, acting, music, make-up and cinematography make this film come alive. This is a feature film that leaves the audience wonder-ing about loyalty, friendships and the call of duty. This film is an award-winning film and a must-see IFF film.

5. “Search Engines”Sanity and relationships are put to the test when mysterious

circumstances force a family to survive the annual American Thanksgiving holiday without their cell phones. A fun Indie film with a great cast including Joely Fisher, Natasha Greyson Wagner, Daphne Zuniga and the hysterical Connie Stevens. I thought this film was funny, and it reminds us that we may just depend on so-cial media and our electronic devices a bit more than we really need to. Perfect for a girls’ night out at the IFF.

1. “Under the Bridge: The Criminalization of Homelessness”

A documentary film shot in downtown Indianapolis is about a tent city under a bridge, a man named Maurice and the criminalization of homeless in the United States. The unof-ficial “mayor” of the Davidson Street camp, Maurice is an older, dreadlocked black man who has dropped out of normal society to minister to the homeless. His camp based under a railroad track becomes a real community, supported by church volunteers, until police and bulldozers close in to shut it down. This film makes the audience think about how we deal with the homeless and how this can happen to any of us when we least expect it.

2. “A Sicilian Dream”A documentary about the famous Targa Florio, a Sicilian

mountain road race that, in 1906, gave birth to a new era of

“Under the Bridge,” a documentary about homelessness in India-napolis will be playing at the Indy Film Fest. (Submitted photo)

Where’s Amy sees ‘Hoagy’

Where’s Amy? snagged a sold-out ticket to the one-night staged reading of “Hoagy On My Mind” performed by Actor’s The-atre of Indiana. Local award-winning playwright Kenyon Brown conceived and wrote the new musical, which delighted and dazzled the audience with his clever story about Hoagy Carmi-chael, a native of Bloomington. ATI professional actors dressed in black and white, gathered on stage and read the script in a live format while mixing in the songs of Hoagy Carmichael. I was so intrigued by the story and performances of the actors that I forgot I was watching a live-screened, staged version of Brown’s new musical.

The performance gave the attending guests a chance to see a musical in the making and have the opportunity to give sug-gestions and raise questions for the cast, and most importantly Brown. The verdict was clear the audience loved Hoagy and gave it a well-deserved standing ovation. I truly was amazed by the works of Brown and, as always, ATI never disappoints. Keep your eyes peeled for the new musical “Hoagy On My Mind,” it’s a hit. Where’s Amy looks forward to seeing you at the 2016-17 ATI season. For more, visit atistage.org.

Nancy Hague, Eileen Cham-pagne and Pat Bishara, all of Carmel, made it a special girls’ night out to see the one-night staged reading of “Hoagy On My Mind” at ATI.

Fairfield Four to play July 16

MUsIC

By Mark Ambrogi • [email protected]

Joe Thompson has deep roots in The Fair-field Four.

His cousins, brothers Harold and Rufus Carrethers, founded the a cappella gospel group at

Fairfield Baptist Church in Nashville, Tenn., in 1921.

“I’m 81 now, and I was in high school when they first got me involved,” Thompson said.

This is the third generation of The Fairfield Four, which will play at 8 p.m. July 16 at The Warehouse, 254 First Ave. SW., Carmel.

“All the guys in the group have all been Bible-based guys,” said Thompson, a bass singer. “They’ve had five or six preachers in the group. We keep God in the midst of every-thing we do.”

The group plays at a variety of venues, but The Warehouse’s living-room concert style suits it.

“We just want to make sure we can reach out and touch our audience,” said Larrice Byrd, a baritone. “We really believe in engaging our audience.”

Bobbye Sherrell, 63, was the last one to join the group five years ago.

“They made it comfortable and easy for me to come in,” said Sherrell, a tenor. “They accepted me, and we all had the same frame of mind in form of places of worship and the same songs. We are a family now.”

Byrd, the youngest at 62, and Levert Allison, 78, a tenor, joined at the same time seven years ago.

“We have very good chemistry,” Allison said. In 2015, the group won a Grammy Award

for Best Roots Gospel Album, “Still Rockin’ My Soul.”

The group will play several cuts from that album “and all the stuff the generations have done,” Allison said.

Hunter Smith is a Texan by birth and now a Hoosier at heart.

“I left Texas when I was 17, so I’ve been here well over half my

life,” said the 38-year-old Smith, who was a punter for Notre Dame’s football team before being drafted by the Indianapolis Colts. “I met my wife and most of my best friends and my band (in Indiana). This is what we call home. This is where we want to live and die.”

So, it’s not odd the Zionsville resident’s “In-diana Moon” has been chosen as the anthem of Indiana Bicentennial celebrations.

“What an honor,” Smith said. “It’s not just a song that will be played a couple of times. It’s part of the history of the bicentennial.”

The Hunter Smith Band will play during the Indiana Bicentennial Hoosier Homecoming Oct. 15 and the Sunday’s Inspirational Celebration at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum in Indianapo-lis on Dec. 11, Indiana’s official 200th birthday.

Smith said his song was discussed for a few months and then recently confirmed as the anthem.

‘Indiana Moon’ chosen as anthem

ine, had the idea for a song called “Indiana Moon.”

“He brought it to me, and I wrote the song,” Smith said. “As the principal songwriter, guys bring me ideas, and we develop them.”

Inspiration struck Smith when bouncing around on the trampoline with his kids and the moon was bright.

The song is on the band’s second album “Story,” released in 2015. The band will play at Back Porch Revival concert in Iowa City, Iowa, Aug. 27, opening for Blake Shelton.

Commentary by David Decker

Kitchens aren’t just for cooking anymore. Houzz, a digital leader in home design and

inspiration, recently released a report detailing consumer trends in kitchen design.

Included was how consumers are using their kitchens and the functionality that may have changed over the years. A majority of people report spending three to four hours per day in the kitchen, with activities ranging from eat-ing to entertaining to doing homework.

With the kitchen commanding such a large number of activities, the design and function-ality is extremely important. A large reason homeowners renovate is to improve the flow and open it up to either another interior space, such as a living room, or to an outdoor patio or porch. Homeowners continue to blend living and functional areas of their homes, al-lowing them to enjoy all areas more easily.

Once they have opened up their kitchens, a majority of homeowners are changing the style during the renovation. Countertops, cabinets and flooring are some areas where design and style take shape.

Illusions of the Parthenon

Travel

Commentary by Don Knebel

The Parthenon, atop the Athens Acropolis, represents the epitome of classical architec-

ture and the inspiration for build-ings around the world, including the United States Supreme Court

Building. Its timeless appearance results from a number of clever optical refinements reflecting the perceptiveness of ancient Greek architects.

Pericles, the great Athenian leader, erected the Parthenon from 447 to 432 B.C. to celebrate the accomplishments of the citizens of Athens, then at the peak of its power. The 228-foot-long by 101-foot-wide building sheltered a colossal gold and ivory statue of Athena, the patron goddess of Athens. Because Athenians did not enter the Parthenon, but observed it from outside, architects designed the exterior to communicate visual perfection by taking into account the limitations of human perception. As a result, the Parthenon has no straight lines.

To counter the perception that vertical parallel lines bow inwardly, the middles of the Parthenon’s marble columns are slightly wider than their ends. Because columns set against the bright sky appear smaller than those against a darker background, the diameters of the corner columns are about six centimeters larger than those of other columns.

To overcome the perception that horizontal lines sag, the Parthenon’s lintels curve slightly upward. Because a triangular pediment makes columns below it appear to bend outward, the Parthenon’s columns are closer to each other at their tops than at their bases.

The Parthenon was severely damaged in 1687, when gunpowder stored in it by the Ottomans exploded during a battle with the Venetians. In 1931, a full-scale replica of the Parthenon, based on ancient descriptions and including a magnificent statue of Athena, was completed in Centennial Park in Nashville, Tenn.
