Greenwood Little League team places 5th in state-wide competition

For the first time in more than 20 years, the Greenwood Little League All-Starts made it to the District 12 State Champion-ship, placing 5th in the recent competition. “It was a fun team to be on and I have a lot of friends on this team,” said play-er, Matt Luechtefeld. “I like being around a lot of other players because they push me to be my best. We used teamwork and helped each other stay up and not get down as a team. When some of our teammates would get sad that they struck out we would all help them out.”

Greenwood’s Carefree Crocodiles break conference records

The Carefree Crocodiles, a swim program in Greenwood, dominated the Community Swim Conference held July 19 at the University of Indianapolis with 535 points (they won by 182 points). Brady Ferguson tied the conference 50 freestyle record for 11-12 year old boys (time of 26.69) Drew Shellenberger broke the confer-ence 50 breast stroke record for 11-12 year old boys (time of 33.26). They have been the conference cham-pions each year since 2012.

By Eric EllisThe Greenwood Middle School football field was

subjected to all kind of games, fun and yes, even falling cows on July 19.

“The Great Cow Drop” (an event presented by Chick-fil-A) was held to raise funds for the Green-wood Public Library. This was the second year for the event and GPL officials hope it will become a regular, annual occurrence.

Jane Weisenbach, Director of Development at GPL, said the funds raised will go to supporting events and activities regularly hosted by the library.

“Funds will be going toward programming and various events like our preschool story times, regu-lar teen events,” Weisenbach said.

Attendance was about the same as it was last year, according to Weisenbach.

“We had somewhere between 300 and 400 par-ticipants,” she said. “We love the event; it’s a lot of fun and everybody has a great time.”

“There was face-painting, we had a bounce house, a simulated surf machine, a horse-drawn wagon ride, all kinds of booths, about 15 crafters with things from jewelry to scientific things,” Weisen-bach said. “We started off the whole day with Sil-ly Safaris which was a cool live animal show; (they) had an owl, groundhog and even a baby alligator.”

At noon the “cow parade” began, marshalled by the horse-drawn wagon, followed by Chick-fil-A’s cow mascots and kids going around the track.

It all led up to the “cow drop” – stuffed animal cows were dropped over the field from a helicopter and kids scoured the field for the cows and prizes.

“We look forward to doing it again next year,” Weisenbach said.

By Nicole DavisAs more and more people make a conscious

effort to know where their food comes from, focus-ing on health information and how food is made, that trend is made evident by the growing number of health food stores and farmers markets on the Southside. In the last year, three new farmers mar-kets in Beech Grove and Greenwood have started, with more in the plan-ning.

“I’d encourage people to come out because pro-duce is fresher,” said Earl Smith, who sets up at nu-merous markets including the Southport Farmers Market and the Empori-um Beech Grove Farmers Market. “You can meet the farmers that produce the meat, grow the vegetables and take care of the bees. You can meet the lady that baked the bread. I’m a be-liever of small, local busi-nesses in the community, to help the community be viable and self-reliant.”

The week of Aug. 3-9 is National Farmers Market Week, as declared by the United States Department of Agriculture. Accord-ing to the USDA’s Web-site, farmers markets have been on the rise in the U.S., with a demand for locally-grown pro-duce.

“I try to frequent farmers markets all of the time,” said Michelle Fall, a resident of the Southeast side of Indianapolis who stopped at the Southport Farmers Market this year. “I’d rather buy from local people than from gro-cery stores.”

Here, learn more about Southside markets, including Beech Grove, Emporium Beech Grove, Southport and Greenwood.

Beech GroveThe Beech Grove Farmers Market opened

June 8, the first of two markets to open in the community this summer. One of the own-ers of The Whistle Stop Ice Cream and More,

Karla Richardson and an employee Jennifer Self were instrumental in organizing the mar-ket, which Richardson said has gained a good-sized crowd each Sunday.

“We’ve had wonderful turnout, a great support from the com-munity,” Richardson said. “Our vendors are fabu-lous and many go to the other markets as well. We have a lot of locals that have never done anything like this that participate as well. We have four or five produce vendors and as the crops come in we have something new every week.”

The Beech Grove Farm-ers Market has 20 ven-dors that include: salsa, jams, kettle corn, farm-raised eggs, meat, fruits and locally-grown veg-etables, candles, honey, homemade soaps and lo-tions from goats milk and baked goods. A couple of the produce vendors also accept WIC vouchers. The Market will run until the last Sunday in October.

“It’s been fabulous,” Richardson said. “We just started getting watermel-on and cantaloupe. Come fall they’ll have a whole trailer full of pumpkins. It’s brand new so everyone is excited.”

Emporium Beech GroveBeautify Beech Grove,

a nonprofit with a goal to raise money to beau-

tify the city without using taxpayer’s money, planned for two years to start a farmers mar-ket in the city. A month ago, members hosted its first bi-monthly market, with the next to take place July 29.

“The second market we had, we had five vendors who all requested we do this every week because the response was so great,” said Jim Coffman of Beautify Beech Grove and owner of Eckstein Shoe Store & Repair. “We are hoping for that next year. The demand is there and people want it there and that’s why it’s done so well. The vendors have been very happy with the turnout.”

The booth and rental fees are paid to Beau-tify Beech Grove. Coffman said with booth

fees of $5, they aren’t raising a lot of money through the market. The goal is to get people to stop in Beech Grove. The location of the Emporium Beech Grove Farmers Market is at the corner of Churchman and Emerson Ave-nues, in front of the Emporium Flea Market.

“The goal is to expand and get more ven-dors and to get them weekly,” Coffman said. “The response has been great. It shows there is such a need in Beech Grove. Our biggest goal is to bring people to Beech Grove.”

Goods for sale are strictly comprised food and produce vendors.

“I think people will be impressed with the vendors we do have,” Coffman said. “They are local and they are strictly food and pro-duce vendors. The quality is great and price is great for what you get. Farmers markets are a big deal and I’ve always wanted Beech Grove to have one. We have two of them now and I’m very excited. One brings a lot of people to Main Street and the other brings people

to stop on Emerson Ave., and that’s great for Beech Grove.”

Center GroveGreenwood resident Josh List intended to

start a farmers market in the Center Grove area near the end of July. Although the loca-tion did not work out, he said he would still like to start a market in his community.

“I think Center Grove community needs some sort of farmers market someplace that they can come and get their produce,” List said. “I don’t want to compete with the other one in Greenwood, so we decided to do this on a Saturday afternoon. We are searching for business owners that would support us utiliz-ing their parking lot space.”

In addition to his full-time job, List oper-ates Just Add Water Gardens in Greenwood and makes his own barbeque sauce. He said enjoys selling his sauce at farmers markets, where it is of importance to people that their

food be natural or organic, healthy and from a local person. He currently attends a market in Greenfield on Saturday mornings.

“The environment at (farmers markets) are friendly, something you don’t get everywhere else,” List said. “At the famers market, you have a relationship with the grower, the actual person producing the item. You get to know where it comes from; it’s amazing.”

List said he still hopes to finalize plans for a market in the area and is looking for the sup-port of a local business owner for the space to host the weekly gathering. For more informa-tion, visit JustAddWaterGardens.com.

“Hopefully by the end of the year we can have something, even if it’s just one market saying we will be open next year,” List said.

SouthportSeeing a need in her Southport community,

Nancy Miller organized the Southport Farm-ers Market late in the 2013 season. With five vendors signed up last year, the Southport market has now grown to 18.

“Our goal is to bring fresh produce, home baked goods, grass-fed beef, cheeses and eggs to the Southport community,” Miller said. “The weather this year has been excellent. We’ve only had one day it was kind of iffy, and we had a little rain, but people got out of their

cars with umbrellas. Now that people know we’re here, they say we’ll be back.”

Of the 18 registered vendors, Miller said an average of 11-12 will attend regularly. The Southport market includes everything from baked goods, honey, meat, cheese, food trucks, Oberweis dairy and fresh produce.

“(This market) has potential but it’s been a little slow,” said vendor, Earl Smith who has at-tended farmers markets for 10 years and has been to the Southport market since it opened.

Miller said the response has been all posi-tive, and they are continuing to look at ways to make the market better such as incorporating WIC and encouraging vendors to donate the excess food to the local pantry, Hunger Inc.

“I want it to be bigger,” Miller said. “I’d like to see more people walking here, to eat fresh and buy local.”

GreenwoodThe Greenwood Farmers Market is in its

23rd season this year and continues to grow. Market manager, Jeff Allen, says he came to the Greenwood market 12 years ago as a place to sell the honey from his own bees. He and his wife remained involved because of the support they were given through the market, as far as sales and customers.

“My wife and I feel very strongly about the market and what it provides for the commu-nity,” Allen said, who became a manager five years ago. “I wanted to give back to the com-munity. This is where I live and I want to give back.”

Allen said when he first started attending, there were approximately 10 vendors, includ-ing him. There are now 46 registered vendors, with an average of 33-35 showing up each Sat-urday, the biggest day. The Greenwood market will run through Oct. 11.

“Our vendors are very great, wonder-ful people,” Allen said. “They are dedicated to what they do. They’re fun to be around. Then our customers that come through, I en-joy watching them. The kids love it. It’s a safe, clean environment for families. I enjoy watch-ing them look at things and see their interests that they have.”

This is second year for the Greenwood Farmers Market to take place in the park-ing lot of the Greenwood United Methodist Church. It was previously located outside of the Greenwood Public Library, and Allen said they needed to move because as the market grew, the area became too busy, with people needing to park across the street and traffic backing up on Madison Ave.

Allen said the economy has been a chal-lenge, and with new grocery stores such as Fresh Thyme and Earth Fare opening up with a focus on a healthier, farmers market-type at-

mosphere, he said he’s sure it’s taken a toll the Greenwood Farmers Market.

“The biggest thing people need to know is this market brings two things. It does bring lo-cal growers, local producers of goods which is anything from eggs to baked goods and fresh produce. Our customers can talk to our ven-dors and ask how that food was raised before they buy it. The number two is it is a commu-nity function, a good, clean healthy environ-ment. People can just come through and look at what we have to offer. It’s a decent outing for folks."

HAUNTS & JAUNTS

War times start a sequence of paranormal activity at Camp Atterbury

Indiana plays host to a variety of paranormal venues—all originating from the central hub of Indianapolis, and all within the range of a

tank of gas or less.Camp Atterbury in Johnson

County has been a dominant pres-ence for countless years. Located just south of Franklin and five miles due west of Edinburgh, it resides in a terrain of diverse contrasts: from agriculturally flat in the northern boundaries to rolling hills in the central section to steep hills and val-leys to the south.

For those of us in the Beech Grove, Southport and Greenwood area, it is an easy drive. And a history lesson well worth taking.

Does Camp Atterbury have paranormal ac-tivity? It would appear to.

Construction on the original 43,000 acres commenced shortly after the Japanese at-tack on Pearl Harbor, Dec. 7, 1941. The Unit-ed States had just prior to this attack entered into the conflict of World War II and rather quickly required a training center centrally lo-cated with the capability to get soldiers up and ready to roll. The newly formed Camp Atter-bury met all those requirements.

But at what cost?When the government comes to call they

generally get what they want. And what they

wanted was the land. Farmers were forced to give up land and homesteads that had been in their family for generations. Their way of life came to a rapid conclusion. Those that freely sold were given ridiculously low sums of mon-ey for what they called home. Others that re-

fused to sell were forced out and the land was taken. Entire towns—Mt. Pisgah and Kansas, for example—disappeared almost overnight.

An estimated 1,700 graves from at least 10 cemeteries had to be ex-humed and relocated. Were they always successful in removing ev-ery grave in these 43,000 some acres? Most likely not, forcing the deceased to become an unwilling resident of wartime operations.

An army base seems to run in cy-cles, some more drastically than others. Camp Atterbury was no exception. After World War II the base was basically put out to pasture, only being reactivated at the onset of the Ko-rean War in 1950. Once again it became a vital hub of frenzied activity and the sound of sol-diers in cadence resonated throughout. And then, as the cycle came back around full circle, it fell dormant. And waited….

Next: Camp Atterbury and the prisoners of war.

Q: What do you like best about summer weekends?

face to face

"I like summer week-ends because I usually spend them with my friends. It is my last summer with them before I go to college. It is pretty special be-cause I love them all. It is kind of like an ex-tra family that I spend time with."

Amy Frye of Franklin Township

"We like to get away when it is warm and go visit state parks to camp and canoe. Summit Lake State Park just outside of New Castle is one of our favorites. We are planning on going next month to Shades State Park. Any of the state parks within a couple of hours here we try to hit up."

"Most importantly I like hanging out with friends and family. Specifically I enjoy going to the Beech Grove Summer Con-cert Series in the park (Sarah Bolton Park). It is usually a good time for friends and family to come hang out at no cost."

Jim Coffman of Beech Grove

"I like best about sum-mer weekends is that we can all get out on our (motor) bikes and go downtown, cruise to Broad Ripple, just get out and hang to-gether and enjoy the weather. Come down and have ice cream here (at Mrs. Curl Ice Cream Shop and Outdoor Cafe in Greenwood). There is a whole bunch of us who ride. We just meet up and there may be a pack of five, there may be a pack of 20. We just meet up and we just ride. It doesn't have to be anybody we know. Everybody is really friendly."

Vaccinate children before school begins

VIEWS

OUR VIEW

BACKSHOP

Back to school means getting back “into the swing of things” but it also means more than just picking up all the necessary school sup-plies. Indiana State Law requires students to be up-to-date on immunization and vaccina-tions and it is required for enrollment in the child’s school.

A tempest of controversy over whether or not vaccines have an adverse effect – specifi-cally, whether vaccines could cause autism or not – has been roiling ever since The Lancet published a paper by Dr. Andrew Wakefield in 1998 that linked autism and the MMR vaccine

(for measles, mumps, and rubella). However, The Lancet has since retracted (in Feb. 2010) Dr. Wakefield’s paper because of questionable ethical approval in the way the research was presented.

Even the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cites a study in the Journal of Pe-diatrics from March, 2013, which concluded that “there is not a causal relationship be-tween certain vaccine types in autism.”

Because of the irrational fear spurred on by Wakefield’s (and others’) perpetuation of his “findings,” vaccination rates in the Unit-ed States declined while cases of measles and mumps rose markedly. Rest assured – there is nothing to fear. Vaccines are safe. For more information on vaccine safety, visit cdc.gov. If there ever is cause for concern about vaccina-tions or basic healthcare, the CDC should be the first place you go for information.

To find out which vaccinations your child needs, visit your school’s website or go to nvic.org for a comprehensive list from kindergar-ten to higher education.

Kudos to the Kiwanis of Perry Township on another successful Fish Fry. This annual event, which was held last week, is quickly becoming one of our favorites. It is very well organized, the food is good and it is sold at a reasonable price – and, oh, the money raised benefits the community. This event, too, shows the rele-vancy of service clubs and what they can mean to a community. Finally, we’d be remised if we didn’t give the Baxter YMCA a pat on the back for giving up its space to hold the event. The space plus the parking doesn’t get any better for an organization such as the Kiwanis who want to put something like this on. Thanks again, to Steve Hadley, president of the Ki-wanis of Perry Township and all of the mem-bers for this very important organization that serves the Southside so well.

………………

Interesting times we live in, indeed. With all of the international crises we have going on, there was a time, not so long ago, that you could count on whomever occupied the Oval Office to talk about it and show some leader-ship. Not so any more. It looks as though with a little over two years left in his term, our Pres-ident has officially checked out. His chief con-cerns, it seems, is meeting celebrities, fund-raising and going on vacation. Not necessarily in that order.

going to be a bustBy Torry Stiles

You hauled five tables; filled them with stuff; labelled everything; sat in the sun all day... All you sold was the tables.7. Everything you thought was collectible isn't any more.6. The neighbors don't mind that you sold cold drinks and snacks but they called the cops when you set up the keg.5. Your kid is proud he made $20 - by selling your car. Have fun walking to work on Monday.4. The wife saw what you were trying to pull and saved Mr. Whiskers Fluffikins from the suitcase you were selling for a dime.3. Most of your stuff still has the Goodwill stickers on them.2. Officer Friendly is just waiting for your sale to open... and so is his drug-sniffing dog.1.

The Purge: Anarchy…Significantly better than the first

Until the start of America’s most violent sport, football, we’ll have to look for other methods to meet our

viewing quota of overtly aggressive material. One place to start, besides national and local news, which seem to report on an endless amount of bloodshed and death, is your local multiplex. Luckily, the sequel to one of 2013’s, most bloody and corpse- riddled films, The Purge: Anarchy, opened this weekend.

For those unfamiliar with these films, the plots of both films revolve around the annual purge, a 12-hour period sanctioned by the government once a year where all crime, including murder, is le-gal. The event is thought to help “purge” soci-ety of the weak or undesirables.

This time around, instead of having the vi-olence and mayhem confined solely to one house and one family, The Purge: Anarchy in-volves more characters and a lot more area: the entire city of Los Angeles. The Purge: An-archy is the story of a mother, daughter strug-gling to make ends meet, a young married couple on the brink of divorce, and a grizzled, hard-boiled middle aged guy, whose inten-tions are not entirely clear, as they all try to survive the annual purge “holiday” unscathed.

With The Purge: Anarchy being a sequel and a horror film, as expected, the violence is amped up significantly. There is a near con-stant shower of bullets and knife-wielding throughout as the body count rises quickly.

However, while the violence is an integral part of the film, it never takes away or distracts from the central story and theme, which is much appreciated. The director exercises commendable restraint when it would have been so easy to focus on a bloody wound or man-gled body.

There is some poorly written and very stilted dialogue, which takes you out of the film slight-ly. The characters are not the best

drawn or developed as well; one in particular is, more often than not, dumb beyond words. Subtle is also something The Purge: Anarchy is not as it beats you over the head with its po-litical message of class warfare.

Overall, the film is pulse-pounding intense and edge of your seat entertaining the entire way. It’s an incredibly fun time. The Purge: An-archy is a rarity in that it bests its predecessor in every aspect by a significant margin. I look forward to the next installment. A 3 out of 5.

For The Southside Times by AAAWith warmer temperatures, congested

roads and the busy summer travel season in full swing, AAA Hoosier Motor Club [3] is re-minding drivers about ways to avoid aggres-sive driving and road rage. Aggressive driving is intentional, dangerous behavior that jeopar-dizes the safety of motorists and pedestrians. According to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, aggressive driving is a serious problem on our nation's roads and highways and a fac-tor in up to 56 percent of fatal crashes. Road rage is less common than aggressive driving but far more dangerous. Road rage is deliber-ate, uncontrolled anger that leads to violence or the threat of violence on the roads.

Both aggressive driving and road rage are unpredictable, can be ignited quickly, and can occur at any time. In addition, numer-ous studies indicate that we are all capable of acting out our anger when we're behind the wheel, no matter our age, gender, or how con-siderate we might be in other circumstances.

When motorists were surveyed, they con-sistently identified the following situations as ones that would anger and provoke them. AAA Hoosier Motor Club reminds drivers to steer clear of these types of situations:

* Cutting People off: If you accidental-ly do cut someone off, try to apologize with an appropriate gesture, such as a hand wave. If someone cuts you off, slow down and give them plenty of room instead of seeking re-venge.

* Driving slowly in the left lane: Even if you're driving the speed limit, if you're in the left lane and someone wants to pass, be cour-teous. Move over and let them pass so you don't anger drivers behind you. The left lane is actually intended as a passing-only lane; oth-erwise, you're expected to move to the right.

* Tailgating: Follow the two-second rule: Note when the vehicle in front of you passes a landmark. It should take you at least two sec-onds to reach the same point. If you're being tailgated, put on your turn signal and pull over to allow the vehicle to pass.

n Tips for saving after 50Savings need to be a top priority, especially for those who haven’t been saving. Keeping in mind to save for health is also a crucial detail; living lon-ger means additional healthcare and healthcare costs are often left out of the savings equation. Make sure to understand your premiums and how much of healthcare is covered in order to not be caught off guard. – Yahoo Finance

n Move up in your careerCareer coach Caroline Ceniza-Levine of SixFig-ureStart offers a few words of advice: Aim for the highest level you can get. Be able to articulate yourself with quantifiable descriptions – this is a strong interview technique that highlights your

experience while boosting your credibility. Be lev-elheaded about asking for a raise or promotion and be able to back up why you’re asking. – Yahoo Finance

n Dividing up in a divorceAssets left behind in a divorce can cause quite a few headaches if there are disagreements about debt and other finances. Credit history and credit score are directly affected by an ex-spouse’s mort-gage payments on any joint credit account. Aside from the divorce decree, the only way to expunge your name is for the other party to sell the house or refinance the mortgage and take your name off the loan. – Credit.com

FEATUREFor The Southside Times by Marty Wood with Zounds

I have been enjoying motorcycling for more years than I care to admit. In addition to the wind in our faces, unobstructed panoramic views and the experience of the road on two (sometimes three) wheels, most of us really enjoy the sound a motorcycle makes.

Most motorcyclists understand that noise exposure over time damages their hearing; unfortunately, many define noise as that ema-nating from the bike itself or other road and traffic conditions. Many bikers believe that only those that do not wear full-face helmets are exposed to excessive noise. While some-what correct, the real hearing “killer” is wind noise.

Wind noise is the result of turbulence pro-duced around the head while in motion. The result is irreversible hearing loss/damage over a period of time when adequate hearing pro-tection is not worn. Like shooting and avia-tion noise exposure, the amount of exposure to the inner ear is compounded every hour you ride.

To put this in perspective, an average work-er surrounded by levels of approximately 85 to 90 decibels for an eight-hour day will not exceed the limits of exposure time within 24 hours. However, when the sound levels ex-ceed 100 decibels, exposure time is reduced to two hours. If sound levels exceed 115 deci-bels, exposure time is reduced to 15 minutes. Typical "wind noise" at highway speeds can measure up to 103 decibels.

At these levels, a rider begins to experience physical fatigue from excess noise exposure, and puts him or her into a position of needing a hearing aid later in life.

Another common motorcycle riding expe-rience is a temporary loss of your hearing lev-el immediately following a long ride. Having this experience over time will result in perma-nent hearing damage. Everyone has experi-enced this at one time or another, whether it is from going to loud dance halls, or concerts or even work, but this is a common occurrence for motorcyclists who do not wear adequate hearing protection while riding their bike.

There are several types of hearing-protec-tion devices on the market. A custom set of ear molds is the best answer for suppress-ing sound. They provide excellent noise-sup-pression values and are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. (One additional recommendation is to check with local state officials on the regulations of wearing hearing protection. See the AMA web pages on State Motorcycle Laws, americanmotorcyclist.com/Rights/State-Laws.aspx.)

Man cannot improve on God’s perfection

“Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body,”

~1 Cor. 6:19-20

Christians and most religions believe our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and should

be nourished and treated as such. Well that one, like gluttony and coveting, got conveniently swept under the holy rug of religious hypocrisy.

Jesus repeatedly referred to bread, saying grains are the stuff of life. Jesus even called himself the “Bread of Life,” so how can eating grains be bad? Man’s unbridled greed and arrogant disrespect for God, perhaps. Today’s dead, toxic, genetical-ly altered, herbicide-infused twaddle is ditch-worthy. Why would you put something like this into your Holy Temple? You’re trained like mice through aggressive advertising; it’s probably easier to get people to change their religion than to change their diet.

Author and cardiologist William Davis, MD, says big agriculture stepped in decades ago to develop a higher-yielding crop. To-day's "wheat," he says, isn't even wheat, thanks to intense crossbreeding efforts. "The wheat products sold today are nothing like the wheat products of our grandmother's age, very dif-ferent from the wheat of the early 20th Cen-tury, and completely transformed from the wheat of the Bible," he says.

Alas, you’re told eat to more whole grains,

but most people still don’t eat enough. In fact, it’s estimated Americans only consume 1/3 of the whole grains into their diets that they should. ‘Real’ whole grains provide infinitely more heavenly nutrition than refined grains,

are higher in fiber, vitamins, min-erals and antioxidants. Simultane-ously, researchers are waving big red flags saying Gluten intolerance, Celiac Disease is epidemic because wheat, if you dare call it that, is hardly a health food. It makes you fat, causes gas and makes your in-testinal tract your enemy.

Personally I think God struck perfection creating the appropri-ate nourishment humans need to thrive and survive. Not sure the

God I worship created us to be the sickly bunch we’ve become. I mean, come on, how can man in greed and false hubris think he can second guess and improve on God’s works? That’s the mountain top of insane arrogance. When the unenlightened defend the whole-sale bastardization of Creations gifts, under the salvation of feeding the world…really? Some third world countries are worse off af-ter we dump off nutritionally bogus white rice and AP flour, “Look what we did.”

Your magnificent, beautiful temple was programed to express perfect health from the day you were born. But it needs your help. Let’s see some religious compliance and out-rage at man’s flipping off his loving, compas-sionate Creator.

Anyone entering the high school parking lot from the direction of the Administration Office can no longer turn to the immediate left to enter the high school parking lot, but must proceed straight ahead, with the cement flower pot barriers on the left, and then turn left into the parking lot.

GREENWOOD COMMON COUNCIL

July 21, 7 p.m.

n What happened? Ordinance no. 14-37, which would amend the Greenwood Mu-nicipal Code to add a bill dispute resolu-tion procedure, passed its first reading, 8-1.

n What it means: Prior to this amend-ment, customers of sewage works would report to the Controller’s Office in the event of a bill dispute. Now, however, cus-tomers who believe their bill contains an error or believe they have been billed in-correctly may seek a resolution by “1) A customer may make an appointment to meet informally with the Controller to dis-cuss any alleged errors and the Controller shall be empowered to correct any incor-rect charges in his sole discretion. 2) If the above meeting does not resolve the dis-pute to the customer’s satisfaction, the cus-tomer may request an audience before the Board of Public Works and Safety who shall place the matter on its agenda for a public meeting where it shall hear evidence and make a written determination of its find-ings regarding the dispute.”

n What’s next: According to the ordi-nance, it will be “in full force and effect from and after its passage, approval and publica-tion according to law.”

Southport City Council

July 21, 7 p.m.

n What happened? New ordinances 14.07.01 – 03 and a Resolution on The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Tran-sition Plan were proposed.

n What it means: Ordinance 14.07.01 re-quested additional appropriations for the police department, totaling $8,430 for sup-plies. This ordinance was passed. Council member Larry Tunget proposed to table the remaining two ordinances, on estab-lishing parks and police department do-nation funds, and the resolution because he said the process should be to run them through a committee and an attorney be-fore being brought to council. A debate oc-curred as to why this procedure was being questioned. The ordinances were voted on and were tabled.

n What’s next: Police can obtain their funds to purchase needed equipment with the passed ordinances. The remainder will be voted for the first reading at the August council meeting.

………………

In brief...

• Southport Police Chief Thomas Vaughn gave his updates for the department. New recruits for the department were in attendance.

The department will host a fundraiser for National Night Out on Aug. 5, 5:30 to 9 p.m., with family-oriented activities.

• Parks Department Director Marylynne Winslow announced the August Second Saturday in Southport will be Music in the Park, encouraging everyone to at-tend.

ON CAMPUS

By Eric EllisThe Greater Southside Business Alliance

(GSBA) invited business owners and citizens of Perry Township as well as community and civic leaders and public officials to a plan-ning luncheon at the Resurrection Lutheran Church on 445 E. Stop 11 Rd. on July 23.

Those present were invited to voice their concerns about ways to improve the overall state of the Southside community.

Kevin Wheeler, CIC at Cardinal Insur-ance and Government Affairs Chair, emceed the luncheon and began by stating, “We are here because we want to celebrate what is good about the Southside. We also want to acknowledge the needs and issues facing our community.”

Joan Miller, President of the GSBA, said she’s been a business owner in the Southside area for more than 29 years and a resident for 10.

“I’ve noticed a decline over the years,” said Miller. “And that’s what has prompted me to be a charter member of the GSBA… The plan we develop today will make certain we meet the needs of our businesses and residents.”

Paul Brakke, co-owner of the Emerson House and Secretary, said the GSBA is a “vi-able and vital organization” that will serve the purposes of the Southside community.

“When we have good businesses, it provides good places to work,” Brakke said. “When we have good places to work, it makes everything about the community better.”

After a brief video presentation highlight-ing the various areas of improvement and di-lapidation on the Southside – especially on Madison Ave. – guests were invited to a brain-storming activity over lunch to voice concerns and offer suggestions about ways to improve Perry Township and the surrounding areas.

Several ideas that were brought up were:• Refurbishing dilapidated business and

home façades• Building more bike lanes/paths and trails• Creating a Southside welcome wagon• Creating more ESL (English as a second

language) programs for Chin-Burmese and Hispanic residents

• More sidewalks along Perry streets• Constructing a gateway with a logo• Creating a Southside business incubator• Promoting women-owned businesses• Bringing back “putt-putt” and other

family-oriented businesses• Cleaning up Madison Ave. (from Terrace

Ave. to Thompson Rd.)• Creating a young business leaders

organization• Creating a cultural center

Before the luncheon’s adjournment, Wheel-er said the GSBA would get together to dis-cuss the ideas that had been brought up in or-der to formulate an achievable plan.

“We will meet again in six months with a progress report,” Wheeler said. “And to hear your new ideas as well.”

FEATURE

A viable vision for Perry Township

Recently, I had the opportunity to attend the grand opening of the new ADM Mill on Bethel Avenue. After a year's worth of con-struction, this state-of-the-art mill is open for business. With that comes the prospect of new business and new taxes for our city.

ADM Milling has invested over 30 million dollars in our city with this project. What a wonderful asset to our city and what good corporate partner they have become, not only to the City but to our school district as well.

This comes off the heels of a grand open-ing ceremony for the Kinetrex Energy facil-ity located on Big Four Road. The ceremony held in June capped off more than a year's worth of redevelopment that will change the face of our city for years to come. We are now home to one of the largest distributors of nat-ural gas for motor vehicles in the Midwest. I suspect that the distribution capabilities will double within the next couple of years. This also constitutes new partnerships for our city and school district as well. This is yet another wonderful asset to our city.

I must report that we are working with the folks at Fransican Alliance. Much progress has been made as we are working hand in hand with them to garner a new beginning for the hospital property and we certainly look for-ward to any announcement that may come from the alliance (sooner than later).

In the next couple of months or so, we look forward to conducting our third round of pav-ing and sewer projects that are scheduled to take place throughout our city.

Finally, a big thanks to the Redevelopment Commission as they are beginning to take down all of the remnants of the Digital City project that was undertaken in 2006. Massive failures such as this one are one of the rea-sons that the legislature recently enacted rules concerning Redevelopment Commissions and wireless internet components. Again, thanks to the Redevelopment Commission for their good work in this matter.

CONTROLLED!

Hard to imagine the Brickyard 400 will celebrate its 20th anniversary this weekend at the India-napolis Motor Speedway with the running of the Crown Royal presents the John Wayne Walding 400 at the Brickyard. It seems like yesterday when I, along with many others, viewed the “test” that would be the precursor to the first 400. As an avid IndyCar fan, I met that opportunity with a bit of skepticism, however, as the years have progressed I truly believe it was a wise decision to bring the good ol’ boys to 16th and Georgetown. Here’s to many more 400s! Below is a complete schedule of this weekend’s events and a small “did you know” about the Brickyard through the years. Be safe and enjoy the weekend.

~ Rick Myers, Publisher

Did you know?

1. The first Brickyard 400 took place in 1994 and was won by Jeff Gordon in the No. 24 DuPont Chevrolet.

2. From 1994-2000, the Brickyard 400 was actually scheduled on a Saturday, but made its first Sunday debut in 2001.

3. The fastest official lap ever recorded during the Brickyard 400 was 186.293 mph, a record set by Casey Mears during qualifying in 2004.

4. In 1998, Jeff Gordon won the largest ever winner’s purse for the Brickyard 400 at a staggering $1,637,625.

5. The oldest winner of the Brickyard 400 was Bill Elliot, who won in 2002 at the age of 46 years and 300 days.

Jordan FischerGRAMMAR GUY

Chance vs. opportunity

Question: "Dear Grammar Guy, I would like to take this 'chance' to ask you about the use of 'chance & opportunity'.I see this as a real 'opportunity' to clear up the proper time to use each word. Thank you for the 'chance' to write you. I can’t wait for the 'opportunity' to read your reply." ~ David Stratton

Answer: This is a tricky one, Da-vid. We'll see why in a moment.

Consider this example: Every child born in the United States has a chance of becoming president. Few of us, however, will have the opportunity.

In many circumstances, "chance" and "op-portunity" are interchangeable. Merriam-Webster lists a primary definition for both of them of "an amount of time or a situation in which something can be done."

Fortunately, our friends at the dictionary also offer a few more elucidative definitions for each. "Chance," they say, is "the way that events happen when they are not planned or controlled by people" – or, more simply put, "the possibility that something will happen." An "opportunity" according to Merriam-Web-

ster, is "a favorable juncture of circumstances" or "a good chance for advancement or prog-ress." That last definition – "a good chance" – is the key here.

A "chance" is broad and undi-rected, like, for example, a job list-ing in a newspaper. Anyone can see the listing. Anyone can apply. An "opportunity" is specific and, im-portantly, positive. Continuing with our job listing, the "opportunity" is when they call you to offer you a tri-al run at the position.

"Opportunity" comes from "op-portune," meaning "suitable or con-venient for a particular occurrence." The "particular occurrence" part of

that is your takeaway this week. A "chance" is a nebulous possibility that something might or might not happen. An "opportunity" is a good possibility of some particular, positive thing happening or being made to happen.

RECIPEFor The Southside Times by Family Features

Every cook needs a little menu magic once in a while — something that turns basic into best. A versatile sauce that complements your family’s favorite meals is one way to do it.

Whole Onion & Fresh Tomato Sauce takes only 20 minutes to make. Whatever fresh to-matoes you have on hand — cherry, heirloom, plum, beefsteak — will work just fine in this recipe. The chopped tomatoes, along with roasted red bell peppers, garlic, fresh herbs and tender, slightly sweet-tart Holland-style onions from Aunt Nellie’s, result in a tasty, chunky sauce that’s destined to become your go-to, timesaver recipe. Just quickly saute the garlic, then add the onions and remaining in-gredients for a recipe that is practically no cook.

Adaptable to any dishThis flavorful sauce can be used in a num-

ber of ways. It’s a perfect pasta partner, tossed with angel hair or spaghetti, or spooned over ravioli or tortellini. Finish with shredded Par-mesan cheese, if you like. Add an additional layer of flavor and a fresh burst of color by topping plain grilled or sauteed chicken or fish (tilapia, halibut, cod) with the sauce just before serving.

Use these pantry-staple onions to provide a subtle pop of flavor (and extra vegetables) to other favorite dishes including soups, stews and sauces.

Visit auntnellies.com to find more delicious ways to use onions and other jarred vegetables in your menus.

AROUND TOWNDunk A Hero

fundraiser benefits Greenwood children

Be Your Own Hero, an organization which offers free activities for children in Green-wood, held a Dunk A Hero fundraiser on Saturday, July 19 at Mrs. Curls ice cream shop. A dunk tank was set up, al-lowing participants a chance to dunk a “hero” in the tank. Approximately 200 people participated to raise $331.58. “Ev-eryone was enjoying themselves and that is what life is about,” said Quinton Moore, “I know everyone has things that they are going through in life, but I felt for a few minutes the people who came put their trou-bles aside and just enjoyed life. If this organization can touch the life of one person, put a smile on a person's face, bring a family together for a moment then I say that in itself is a success.” The next Be Your Own Hero event, a Minute to Win It type game, will take place July 26, 12– 3 p.m. at Old City Park in Greenwood.

DEVOTIONALBy Pastor Paul A. Kirby

"These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatso-ever I have said unto you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

~John 14:25-27

While Christ was yet present in the flesh with His disciples, He did all that He could possibly do to comfort them and to put their minds at ease with the fact that He would not be there with them for very much longer. For

that matter, all through His ministry with them, He warned them that the day would come when He would be gone from them and that they needed to pay close at-tention to the teaching that He did concerning the matters of the kingdom of God. I am sure that there were many times that the disciples were not pay-ing attention and that after He had departed from them, they wished they had.

Jesus had another way, how-ever, to bring back to their memories the things He had taught. He would send to them One who would Help them to recall those things and, not just one or two, but all of them.

Jesus said, "The Holy Ghost....shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance..."

Then He added: "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you..."To me these sayings of Christ

are so important to us all. I have found myself in conversations

with individuals that were seeking the Lord but did not know how to

find Him. At the moment the Holy Spirit would bring to my mind just the right things that needed to be said to bring that person or those persons to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. The Holy Ghost who is the Comforter, is the "Helper." This being true, there is no ex-cuse for anyone not knowing the teachings of

Jesus Christ, at least to the point of knowing Him well enough to come to a saving knowl-edge of Him. The Holy Ghost is yet present in the world today doing all He can to bring the world to Christ. He is speaking from pulpits every Lord's Day and throughout the other days of the week. If the world does not take the time to come to know Christ nor go to the trouble to get to know Him, it is not, nor will it ever be, God's fault. God’s love has been so demonstrated to us we will stand before Him in eternity with no excuse whatsoever for not being saved by Him.

God bless and go and have a great day.

Paul A. Kirby is the pastor at the Church of God at 3939 S. Emerson Ave.

Who is the Holy Ghost?

WHERE WE WORSHIP

Living a hope-filled, Christ-centered lifeThe Ferguson family finds a sense of community at New Hope Church

Brandyn and Tricia Ferguson have lived in the Center Grove area for 20 years. Tricia is the assistant principal at Center Grove High School and her husband, Brandyn, works at Endress+Hauser. Together, they have three kids: Parker, Chloe, and Phoebe.

Brandyn says he wasn’t the Christian he is today until 2003, after his parents became Christians a year earlier while Tricia has been Christian since her childhood.

“The Lord wasn’t excluded from our family, but He definitely was not the center of my up-bringing,” Brandyn said. “But when I got to see my parents go through that transformation, I really took notice. And with Tricia’s influence, it just felt natural. I now live a Christ-centered life. I needed to understand that and go on a purposefully pursuit of what others hand un-derstood for their whole lives.”

Since Brandyn became baptized, the Fergu-sons have embraced their faith and wanted to get their kids involved as well so that Christi-anity would be the center of all their lives.

“We wanted to find a church home that was what we wanted for our kids,” said Brandyn.

Eventually they were invited to New Hope by family friends they met through youth sporting events.

“We’ve been going to New Hope for about eight years,” the Fergusons said. “It’s a mid-sized church which gives you that personal feel but it’s also large enough where there are a lot of people who step up into leadership roles and really model what it’s like to live a Christ-centered life.”

What is it about your place of worship that helps you grow spiritually?

“That sense of community,” said Tricia. “We don’t have a lot of family in the area; our church family are the people we go through life with. They genuinely care about how you’re doing.”

“There are a ton of people and it’s a nurtur-ing atmosphere for kids as well. That’s what attracted us and kept us. It really feels like a family get-together when we go to church – not like a crowd. There are just a lot of familiar faces and caring,” said Brandyn.

What is it about your place of worship that helps you feel connected to your spouse, children, parents or family?

“We’ve had instances when our youngest child was sick in Riley Hospital for a week and our church family took care of us and made dinners and helped us with the other kids. Living life with these people and know-ing they’re there for you like a family. I think of the opportunities it gives you to help you grow,” said Tricia. “Since we’re on the host/welcoming committee, we’re involved in the effort to push you out there and not just sit in your seat and get the sermon. We’re commit-ted to “Become” – giving those general nudg-es to get you out of the pew and are out there doing thing that are Christ-centered. Pushing you to live every day what we’re hearing on Sunday. Keep pushing yourself to grow. May-be for me, the best part is the concrete appli-cation that we get through this mission to live like a Christian to be an example to other peo-ple and not just sit and listen.

“And if we’re all living a Christ-centered life, then (our family) never has competing inter-ests. The old adage, ‘the family that prays to-

gether, stays together’ is so true. It’s our val-ues, our beliefs, the places we go, the friends we have. It works for us.”

What is one meaningful event that has taken place at your place of worship?

“The Ash Wednesday service really got to me. I’d never seen anything like it,” said Bran-dyn. “The room had been rearranged, the lights were dimmed… it just put me in a place of sacrifice. Like it was all just stripped away: all the luxuries, conveniences, the safe bubble we live in. It really got me down to the core of what the real Easter season is all about. I walked away from that night thinking, ‘Wow!’”

Why would you recommend your place of worship to someone?

“It’s a welcoming faith home, where peo-ple are free to grow spiritually at whatever rate they’re ready for. Whether it’s someone new to Christianity or someone who’s been one their whole life,” said Brandyn. “Come and be a part of the community and find out what God’s plan is for you. Church should be a place of action. You’ll feel like you fit right in. I know when I got there, I felt like I was behind

everybody. I didn’t know the songs. I felt like I was allowed to be right where I was in my journey. The message has never been slanted to one group or another. The pastors do a phe-nomenal job messaging things in a way that resonate with everyone – no matter how spiri-tually mature they are. You won’t ever feel like you are a ‘rookie Christian.’ There’s no barrier.”

“And there are so many opportunities where you get the sense you’re connecting with God,” said Tricia. “They also have so many outstanding children’s programs – kids from New Hope and all over the community enjoy STARS day camp run by the teenagers from the youth group. That’s just one example; there are so many things like that throughout the course of the year.”
