"My grandma is a survivor who has had breast cancer two times. We got through it but both of those times it was rough for us. It can run in anyone s family and I think you should try the best you can to be healthy. You can t help if you get it but there are things you can do to be as healthy as possible to prevent it from happening." Paige Gil of Franklin Township "This illness has affected my life greatly. My mother suffered from breast cancer and during her treatment she was given radiation and the radiation caused radiation poisoning. Therefore she has been battling many side effects from her treatment. We almost lost her a couple of times. It has been tough on our family. However, with that being said, our family has come out stronger in the end being able to support each other and being closer. Fortunately, I am blessed to still have my mother." Noel Conaway of Southport Greenwood G.R.O.W. initiative taking off The Greenwood Redevelopment Commission (RDC) approved the first projects taking part in the City s recently announced G.R.O.W.

The development encompasses approximately 11 acres and includes a 28,000-square-foot flex building designed to house office and warehouse space. ss-times.com/allen-commercial-group-greenwoodbusiness-center "I ve had close friends that have had breast cancer. I have had co-workers that have had breast cancer. It affects younger and younger women. I want to make more and more people aware of how it can get anybody; it doesn t matter how young you are. It can affect males even. I just want to make everybody aware that you need to have yourself checked so that you can get it early." Shayna Hays of Greenwood "My grandmother had breast cancer, my great-grandmother had breast cancer, my mom had breast cancer. All three survived. Because of genetics, I had a double mastectomy to prevent that from happening to me. I saw it coming. Be You Fitness, that is my business. For breast cancer awareness month, we are having reconstruction events to support someone who is having a reconstruction due to a mastectomy."

Southside survivor story Center Grove resident JoAnn Naue reflects on her breast cancer diagnosis 10 years later By Nicole Davis Keep busy. Have faith. Trust your doctors and medical professionals. Take comfort in the support of family and friends. Ten years since she was diagnosed with breast cancer, JoAnn Naue said these things helped her pull through a tough year of her life. Now a retired nurse, Naue said she was always meticulous about getting mammograms, and sought medical attention when she discovered a lump. She underwent two separate rounds of chemotherapy, losing her hair twice. It was so scary, but in a positive way for me, she said. When it first hits you that you have cancer diagnosis, you think am I going to die in a month? You re in limbo. As I went through my treatment, you spend four hours a day doing chemo hooked up to an IV, I asked my doctor, should I work? I was working full time at the time. She said yes, keep working. So I did. I rested and went back to work. Life went on. The process took a little more than a year, between the initial diagnosis, mastectomy and reconstruction. That was in Ten years later, Naue said going through that experience has made her appreciate each day she s given. After the initial shock, just keeping busy, having faith in my doctors and the support of my family and friends kept me going, she said. It s always in the back of your mind, especially those first few years. You hear stories of reoccurrence and that s always a possibility. I don t talk about it too much because I m a bit superstitious. I Photo by Nicole Davis just go on with life and keep busy. After she retired, Naue decided to go back to work one day a week as a public health nurse for the Marion County Health Department. She and her husband moved to Center Grove area, from Perry Township, several years ago. Along with her hobbies of gardening, reading, antiquing and crafting, Naue spends one day a week attending an exercise class at Carole s Fitness in Perry Township, a business designed for those over 50 to keep healthy and fit. Carole is a godsend, Naue said. Carole is an inspiration. Her whole outlook on life is to take care of this temple you have, your body. She believes in exercise on a regular basis. She doesn t coddle us. We go through an hour of pretty strenuous exercises. She brings out the best. I won't to say I love exercise because I don t. I just feel stronger. Right now, Naue takes Carole s classes one day a week. After undergoing the chemo, she said she was left with some neuropathy, leaving numbness in her fingers. Since the workouts target everything from fingers to toes, and even teach clients how to properly catch themselves if they should fall, Naue said she s especially noticed an increase in the strength of her hands. Aside from the neuropathy, Naue said she didn t have any lasting effects of the chemo and the treatments she went through. Mine was pretty cut and dry, thankfully, she said. Even now, I never take for granted time. You do learn to appreciate each day.

5 The Southside Times COMMUNITY ss-times.com Week of October 20-26, Roncalli Salutes Spirit of Family Tradition William Tharpe, Southport Police Corporal and Perry Township Schools resource officer. Photo by Nicole Davis William Tharpe Southport Police Corporal works to develop K-9 program BEHIND the BADGE Compiled by Nicole Davis Wanting to earn more experience as a patrol officer, Corporal William Tharpe decided to start with a small department. He came to the Southport Police Department as a reserve officer in February 2014 and said ever since, he s loved his role there. It s been like home, he said. I love the family feeling of the community, getting to know everybody, being treated well by the command staff. You feel like you give back to the community. Tharpe grew up near Garfield Park, graduating from Manual High School and later University of Indianapolis. He worked with the Indiana Department of Corrections and then three years in the jail for the Marion County Sheriff s Office. Currently living in Perry Township with his wife, Sabrina, and daughter, Ireland, he has worked full time as a school resource officer at Perry Township Schools for two years. What was your inspiration to become a police officer? My inspiration to become a police officer started while working in loss prevention at Kmart. As a loss prevention officer there was only so much I could legally do. I wanted to take it a step further by helping the people going through hard times to turn their lives around and get the continual criminals off the street. I did a few ride-alongs with officers that would come to the store and from that point I knew that being a police officer is where I wanted to be. What has been one of your most gratifying moments on the job? For me, the most gratifying is just being a police officer in general. I have good days and I have bad days, but in the end it s all worth it because this is what I love to do. If I had to pick a specific moment it would be when I promoted to corporal by the chief. Knowing that I am trusted to lead other officers, some who have more experience than me, it s a very gratifying feeling. What aspect of the job do you find most challenging? We deal with many different people in many different situations. For example, in Southport, we have had a major increase in the amount of Chin residents in our city. With the language barrier, many times it is hard to communicate, or hard to let them know how law enforcement works in the United States. We do have many resources to communicate with individuals in these situations, including having classes for them to help them better understand what to do in certain law enforcement situations. What do you enjoy doing in your off-time? I enjoy spending time with my family, anything from watching movies, family get-togethers, going camping to doing DIY project around the house. Because of the busy schedule working full time along with extra hours as a reserve supervisor, training new officers and bike patrol, the time spend off duty with family is cherished. What are your future goals, professionally or personally? I want to become a full-time police officer in a patrol capacity. I would love to work full time here at Southport. I enjoy working with animals and since Southport does not have a K-9 program, I am working to implement one. I have a Chocolate Labrador Retriever who is being imprinted to be a narcotics dog and I am working with the chief to make this an addition to our department. I plan to stay at Southport as long as I can because it is such a great department to work for. What would you have done if you hadn't become a police officer? I would get into buying houses and flipping them. My brother is a firefighter and wants me to do that, so that could be a possibility.

6 6 Week of October 20-26, 2016 ss-times.com COVER STORY - HALLOWEEN The Southside Times Eerily engaging Julie Dolen decorates her Garfield Park home to ensure every child has a spooky, fun time on Halloween By Nicole Davis The Dolen household was the last house on the block with a light still on, one Halloween. A car pulls up and a child gets out. He looks around and sees every other light is off. It appears as though his mother had just gotten off work and this was their first stop. He looks mopey, disappointed, as he walks up to the house and says, trick-ortreat. That s when Julie Dolen takes their remaining bucket of candy and dumps it into his bag, filling it. The kid, he s like thanks! and turns to his mom and says we re done! Julie said. It s little things like that. It seems like nothing for us, but it can make a world of difference to these kids. We really want all of the kids to enjoy the holiday, a little bit of spookiness and get the candy that works for them. Julie has always had a love for Halloween. It s a guilt-free holiday, she said, where you re not expected to do anything except have fun with it. She has never missed the opportunity to decorate her Garfield Park home or dress in costume. Last year she dressed up as a Minion while her husband, Kevin, dressed up as the character, Gru. Often, she s a superhero. Above all else, she enjoys staying home and handing out treats to the trick-or-treaters. Julie and Kevin moved to East Garfield Drive in At the time, there weren t many kids in the neighborhood. As younger families have moved in, the past eight to 10 years have boomed with trick-or-treaters. Many are from the neighborhood and many are outsiders. Julie usually stops counting at 100 children - and that s 45 minutes into the evening. She estimates they get at least 150 visitors. I enjoy seeing kids from other neighborhoods come in and I m glad that we have that reputation that we re a safe neighborhood, it s safe candy and it s truly about the enjoyment of the season, she said. You get a lot of bang for your buck here because almost every house has candy. It s two blocks wide and three blocks deep. This is such a great neighborhood. Everyone is so wonderful. They decorate, dress up and do all kinds of fun stuff. You see all of your neighbors out, which is really neat. It brings back that neighborhood feel which we, the Garfield Neighbors Association, have worked so hard to get. Julie, an occupational therapist specializing in geriatric rehab and dementia training, and Kevin, a financial advisor, have two children, Kylene, 19, and Katie, 13. The entire family gets into the holiday, dressing up and pulling out all of the stops. Katie s birthday is Nov. 1, aligning with Halloween and Day of the Dead so there is an extra celebration for her. Julie s brother drives up from Bloomington and has a chainsaw; standing beside of the house, he ll often rev up the chainsaw when older children walk by. Julie s mother dresses as Cruella De Vil from the movie, 101 Dalmatians, staying in character and walking around with her actual dalmatian. The first year my mom dressed up as Cruella De Vil, she had her dog, Julie said. She was in character. She went walking around asking, do you know where I can find any puppies? A couple of people dressed as dalmatians actually ended up walking around with her. The family tries not to make it too scary so that everyone feels comfortable coming to the door. Trick-or-treaters are first greeted by a blow-up grim reaper archway. Beside it are gravestones with random names written on them. Lighting goes up the stairs to help the little ones see where they are going. Halloween decorations greet them up top, such as a blow-up Halloween cat sitting on a pumpkin. The porch swing is removed to allow for a projector to play a Halloween movie for parents to watch while their children get candy. Inside, the entire house has a touch of Halloween decor. From spiders sitting on the corner table to themed tablecloths and dish rags, the interior decor is often changed out throughout the season beginning Oct. 1. There are families that each year, because we ve had that grim reaper archway for several years, every year they come up and it ll be their family pictures, Julie said. We get a lot of interaction from people with the different props. Not to forget the candy. This year, the Dolens purchased 180 full-sized candy bars to pass out, along with a bucket full of mini candies (so that Julie can take a small piece or two for herself). A teal pumpkin on the front porch symbolizes that the household also offers allergen-free treats, such as Goldfish, organic pretzels and even glow sticks for those who can t have the snacks. She sometimes has bottles of water, as many of the children are outside for a couple of hours, walking up and down the steps that lead to nearly every Garfield Park home. I m looking forward to nice weather and giving the kids the big candy bars, Julie said. The toddlers, they can t eat most of that candy, but they can have the Goldfish. We try to make kids Halloween awesome. We heard stories of many years ago there used to be a lawyer around the corner that used to give out watches. Every kid on Halloween looked forward to going to his house and get their new watch for the year. I can t compete with that But, I hope someone remembers me like the guy who handed out watches Kevin, dressed as Gru, and Julie, dressed as a Minion, during Halloween Submitted photo 2.

NOW HIRING SEASONAL SALES ASSOCIATES Competitive Pay Employee Discount Greenwood Greenwood Springs Dr ShootPointBlank com/careers By Rick Hinton Many question the validity of the fabled Ouija board. Is it a harmless game? A tool utilized by evil forces? A probe into the non-conscious mind? Or... a combination of all of the above? The Southside Times reader Sharon Kinder has pondered the subject and has questions. Playing with a Ouija board was a favorite thing to do at slumber parties when I was in my teens in the 50s. No life shattering questions, but fun nonetheless. We were always amazed when the planchette took off like crazy to spell out an answer, and we swore to each other that we weren't moving it. Sometimes what it spelled out wasn't an answer we expected I did the same thing in my youth, with a few seances thrown in for good measure. I wanted to explore all possibilities. The Ouija board, once termed a spirit or talking board is flat and m numbers 0-9, the words yes and no, and goodbye. Various symbols and graphics adorn it. Users place their fingers on a planchette-a tear drop shaped piece of wood or plastic with a small window in the bodyask questions and watch in a stupor as it moves from letter to letter to spell out words. Sharon states: We girls always had a lot of questions: Does so & so like me? Will so & so ask me to go steady? Who will ask me to the dance? HAUNTS & JAUNTS Ouija this Good times! The Ouija boards popularity is directly related to the Spiritualist movement of the 19th century, although several incarnations of the talking board predated this time period. Long regarded as a parlor game, the Spiritualists used it as a divining tool, believing the dead actively sought to talk to the living. With this board it could be done in a much faster fashion than the old tried and true methods which were a slower process (mediums, seances, automatic writing, and table turning). Back in the day, communicating with the dead was quite common and not seen (at least by the Spiritualists) as weird and eccentric. It was a sign of the times. However, are there other implications that this board may have long term ramifications? There are those that think it's not just harmless activity, but rather something more sinister in nature. Would you please explain why these boards went from being an innocent pastime sold with kid's games, to something that's now discouraged. Sharon, they are still sold, and yes, I will attempt to...

11 The Southside Times MASH To the Drakes, It s Not Just a TV Show IT'S GOLDEN ss-times.com Week of October 20-26, By CarDon & Associates What do you think of when you hear the word mash? For most, it is likely M*A*S*H, the TV series adapted from the 1970 feature film MASH. And that film was based on the 1968 novel MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors by Richard Hooker. A mobile army surgical hospital MASH is a U.S. Army medical unit serving as a fully-functional hospital in a combat area of operations. The TV show is about a fictional U.S. MASH unit in Korea during the Korean War. But the Drakes, who live in one of CarDon & Associates senior living communities, know the non-fiction side of the story as they helped write the novel based on their lives. Cathy (McDonough) Drake first went to Korea in 1950 as part of the Army Nurse Corp. I was an army nurse stationed in Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C., and I got assigned to the 171st Evacuation Hospital in Korea, Cathy said. The 171st Evac was a big hospital, and I was sent over to one of the five MASH units they had in Korea. Cathy originally served with the 8076th MASH unit in South Korea and was there a few weeks before the unit was sent north to Pyongyang in North Korea. When the Chinese came in, she returned to Japan and was assigned back to South Korea. That s when she went to work for the 8055th MASH unit, right on the 38th parallel that divides North and South Korea. That s where one of the doctors, an anesthesiologist, was waiting for his replacement to come, and he told me Now that would be a nice guy for you, Cathy. Dale Drake was that replacement. Working as a chief anesthesiologist in Arkansas, Dale had joined the Army Reserve and was given orders for the Far East Command in 1951, where he was assigned to the 8055th unit. And he was a nice guy indeed. Oh she was already ready and waiting for me, Dale laughed. She had her hooks in after only a couple weeks. We got pretty well acquainted in four months, Dale said. The couple met at the 8055th in 1951 and only worked together a few short months before Cathy was rotated back to the U.S., but that s all it took. When Cathy went back to the states, we corresponded for about a year until I finished up my time in South Korea in the MASH unit. When I got home in 1953, we got married in Washington, D.C. Cathy was stationed in the Army there, and Dale returned to teach anesthesia at the University of Pennsylvania Medical School. After a year, they connected with a mutual friend living in Indiana. Our friend from Korea was living in southern Indiana, and he knew I wanted to find a place to practice anesthesia, Dale said. He told us one of the local hospitals was in great need of an anesthesiologist. So I applied, got the position and we moved to Indiana. We ve been here ever since. A number of years after the war ended, Cathy and Dale went to visit Dr. H. Richard Hornberger, one of the military surgeons they knew from Korea, at his home in Maine. There was another man there as well, but Dr. Hornberger said he was just a friend who was visiting, Cathy said. The man was a writer from New York City who was working with Dr. Hornberger on a manuscript based on a MASH unit in Korea. That manuscript was published in 1968 as MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors under the pen name Richard Hooker. A night of reminiscing turned into what became a real page turner. And then a feature film. And then one of the highest-rated shows in U.S. television history. Now at 90 and 91 years old, the Drakes can look back on how their history was a notable part of American history. In our MASH unit, the operating room was just one great big room, Dale said. We got to meet Alan Alda, who played Hawkeye, and that character was based on Dr. Hornberger, Cathy said. Married for more than 60 years, Cathy and Dale still remember the impact of wartime and the significance of the letters they wrote to each other while on opposite sides of the world. We wrote to each other every day, Cathy said. And I just hope people today realize how much it means to get a letter or package when you re overseas during a war. And there s one thing in particular neither of the Drakes will forget about their time in Korea. In the midst of war, we found each other.

CALL FOR MORE INFORMATION ASCSeniorCare.com Southside Indy Retiree Lives Vibrant Life Therapy helps her recover from fall at home By Eunice Trotter American Senior Communities After falling and striking her head, Helen Rich could have resigned herself to disability. But she chose rehabilitation. Like thousands of others who experience head injury after a fall, Helen developed problems with her memory and thinking. She had hallucinations and other symptoms. She was diagnosed with dementia. Rehabilitation brought her back. Now 82, Helen lives independently at Rosegate Assisted Living, one of American Senior Communities 90 Senior Rehabilitation and Memory Care communities located throughout Indiana. She went through months of therapy that she believes restored her to the vibrant life she now enjoys. She credits her much improved condition to the therapy and care she received through Rosegate s Moving Forward Rehabilitation program. She moved to Rosegate Garden Homes and Assisted Living after recovering. Before all of this, you couldn t get me to exercise, she said. Everybody here was so concerned. Everyone helped and they all cared about me. Helen was putting up groceries when she tripped and fell, striking her head. She next remembers waking up in a hospital. My son told me I had put canned stuff in the refrigerator and stuff for the refrigerator someplace else. He said I was having hallucinations something horrible. I thought Germans were here and everybody was against me, including my children. When she arrived at Rosegate, she had stroke-like symptoms and was able to walk only about 150 feet with assistance and needed help with her medications and daily living needs. Her family was also concerned about problems with her memory. After therapy, Helen could walk more than 600 feet independently and was able to move into a Rosegate Garden Home. She joined the community s New Energy Wellness program and now walks two miles a day. What else can Helen do? She dines out with friends and recently returned from a cruise. Trips to the casino are not out of the question. On many days, you can find her chatting on her i-phone or zipping about in her new Mini Cooper. Helen says she may again experience symptoms of dementia, but in the meantime she is living life to the fullest. I m very happy here. If I lived someplace else, I d be by myself all of the time. I probably wouldn t be well. Rosegate is on a campus at 7525 Rosegate Dr. where there is a healthcare center, assisted living apartments and garden homes.

13 The Southside Times By Charlotte MacBeth Indianapolis Seniors Other Beneficiaries Encouraged to Get out the Vote the Medicare Vote, That Is With media dominated by political ads and commentary about the candidates, it s hard not to focus on the upcoming presidential election. But it s important for the more than 312,000 seniors and other Medicare beneficiaries in the Indianapolis area to remember that their opportunity to vote isn t over after they head to the polls on Nov. 8. That s because they have not one but two elections to participate in this fall. And fortunately for them, the outcome of the second election is entirely in their hands. From Oct. 15 to Dec. 7, seniors and other beneficiaries have the chance to elect their Medicare coverage for 2017 during Medicare Open Enrollment. Participating is not a civic duty, but it s still incredibly important. The decisions people make during Medicare Open Enrollment can have a significant impact on both their health and their wallet in Many beneficiaries have more than two dozen Medicare plans available in their area. All those options while generally a good thing for consumers also mean that it s important to do some homework. To make comparing the Medicare candidates easier, beneficiaries should focus on three key areas: CHOICE: When it comes to Medicare, one size definitely does not fit all. You need to take the time to explore your options and understand the benefits and costs of each plan so you can choose the coverage that works best for you. CARE: The Medicare plan you select can have a major impact on your health and well-being. In addition to providing access to doctors and hospitals, your Medicare coverage can also help you live a healthier life and achieve your health goals. EXPERIENCE: Medicare can be complex and confusing. It s important to find a plan that offers benefits that are important to you as well as support and services to help you make the most of those benefits. I encourage all Medicare beneficiaries to make their vote count this fall. They can compare the candidates using Medicare s Plan Finder tool on Medicare.gov. Charlotte MacBeth is the CEO of United- Healthcare Medicare & Retirement in Indiana.

14 14 Week of October 20-26, 2016 ss-times.com IT'S GOLDEN The Southside Times A winter checklist for seniors for the Indiana winter By Five Star Senior Living Many people look forward to a reprieve from the extreme heat of summer once autumn rolls around. But a change of the seasons also means putting in extra time around the house to prepare for winter. Following a winter check list can help you winterize your senior loved one s home before the colder months arrive. Here are a few tips to help you get started preparing an Indiana senior s home for winter: SHUT OFF OUTSIDE WATER TAPS Seniors who love to spend time in their garden during the warmer months must take extra steps to ensure that they don t experience frozen or burst pipes during the Indiana winter. If there is a hose line running from a gardening shed or basement water connection, taking the time to vacate those pipes of standing water before the winter can help protect against major headaches when cold weather arrives. Any pipes that are non-insulated and have the potential to be exposed to the elements should be cleared of water before the first freeze. FURNACE INSPECTION It s easy to forget about the furnace until the heat goes out unexpectedly. A furnace needs a regular checkup to ensure that it is working properly--from routine maintenance, to changing filters and checking for any leaks. An HVAC repairman will be able to inspect the furnace to make sure it is in tip-top shape before the chill of winter sets in. REPLENISH BACKUP SUPPLIES To avoid the crowds and sparse shelves at the local grocery stores the night before a coming storm, stock up on emergency supplies before the winter comes: MEDICATIONS. This is especially important if your senior loved one takes prescription pills. Missing a dose can be dangerous. Try to have a month s supply ahead of time to ensure your older family member won t run out in an emergency. Submitted photos BOTTLED WATER AND FOOD STAPLES. Keeping a case of water bottles tucked away in their home is important. Also keep a few days stash of non-perishable food on hand. BATTERIES. D, AA and AAA batteries are good to have on hand because they can keep the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors working and keep flashlights powered through a blackout. FLASHLIGHT. Be sure to keep flashlights in places that are easy to safely access in the dark, including near the senior s bed and favorite chair. PLAN FOR SNOW REMOVAL Snow shoveling and navigating icy walks can be dangerous for seniors. Before the snow flies, make sure you have a snow removal plan in place for their home. If you aren t sure how to find a reliable company to work with, call the local Indiana Agency on Aging. They may be able to offer a few recommendations. TEST SMOKE AND CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS Smoke detectors can reduce the risk of dying in a fire by 50 percent and carbon monoxide detectors help reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning in the home. Make sure the senior you love has both and regularly test them to make sure they are in working order.

15 The Southside Times VIEWS ss-times.com Week of October 20-26, FROM THE EDITOR It s not too late to get to the market One of the most exciting parts of spring is the beginning of the growing season: fresh tomatoes, melons, greens and so much more. As the season changes, so does the produce. The Southside Times has been happy announced the start of each farmers market each year, and now it s time to announce the end. While some Southside markets like Greenwood and Southport have already concluded for the 2016 season, Garfield Park and Beech Grove offer one more opportunity to purchase some fresh produce, among other goods. Beautify Beech Grove has its last market on Oct. 25, 3 to 6 p.m. at the corner of Churchman and Emerson Avenues. Garfield Park Farmers Market will host a special Harvest Market to conclude the season, with a kids vs. pets contest, live music, vendor costume contest, extra vendors, food and more on Oct. 29, 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Garfield Park Tennis Court Parking Lot. This was the first year for the Garfield Park market, and we must say, we were impressed at the turnout. We visited a few times this summer, and there was a continuous crowd of people. Way to go, organizers Julia Woody, Ashley Brooks and other Garfield Park neighbors and volunteers for putting on such a successful event! It was clearly a needed and desired event in the area. Though this year is coming to an end, we anxiously look forward to what the 2017 season has in store! The Southside Times welcomes letters to the editor in good taste.

"You say you want to build the infrastructure. We are already in deep debt. Is it proper to say we're in the infra-red?" 8. "You claim you're a family values candidate. What's your family worth right now?" 7. "Who would win: Superman or Thor?" 6. "You want the rich to pay their fair share. Who are the rich and wouldn't their share be the same as anyone else's?" 5. "Why does your interpretation of 'building a stronger family' always seem to include getting government jobs for your family members?" 4. "The polls show you and your opponent in a virtual tie. How about we settle this with a no disqualification match inside the steel cage?" 3. "There has been a lot of debate over allowing incarcerated felons to vote. Would you campaign inside a prison or is that cutting too close to the bone?" 2. "What body parts have you personally grabbed in the last year?" 1. "Would you take fifty bucks to give up and call the whole thing off? Seventy-five?" BELIEVE IT! Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical laws on the books.

17 The Southside Times VIEWS ss-times.com Week of October 20-26, READERS' WRITES Mrs. Wiseman Thank you for making me read that book Indiana Spine Group Greenwood Indiana Spine Group is pleased to announce our new Greenwood office. The year was The war in Vietnam was sending home some of its heaviest casualties from the Tet Offense. I was a senior in high school and a very poor reader in those days and could barely read at all. My family had moved back north to Indiana from Arkansas in the South and I had yet to learn the art of reading from a book or even one chapter of a book at this point of my life. I made pretty good grades in math and algebra somewhat, but geometry required comprehension and I failed terribly. I was truly gifted due to the fact that I could talk my way out of anything or into anything. English book reports were my greatest threats through school. I didn t know then what I know now. Mrs. Susie Wiseman would become my mentor for a lifetime. I learned to see her as an elegant lady. She was well educated and she had a family of growing children of her own. Along with Mrs. Lyskowinski, they had been my predominant instructors through our high school English and literature classes. I believe most excelled because of them; I know that many just plain loved them both. The times were a changing and we were being challenged as gate keepers of the future. There was so much unrest due to the war. I went to see Mr. Vandermeer, our principal, about an idea for him to help me leave school after my junior year and join the military. He didn t want to see his students going to war and especially before we graduated, but heck, they did it during WWII. I was 18 years old and had everything figured out. He convinced me through a letter on my behalf he d received from the State of Indiana Education Board that I could leave after fulfilling four semesters of English. I hit a stumbling block as I entered Mrs. Wiseman senior English class for the last time. She said we had to give a book report, so I expressed to her that I had never read a book and didn t need to because I was going in the service. Mrs. Wiseman took me to the library and said, Here, I hold the keys to the rest of your life; you re going to read this book or I m not going to let you graduate from school. The weeks passed, and I looked at the little book dozens of times. As the remaining 7 10 days before my scheduled date to give the book report arrived, I went out on the back porch facing the evening setting sun of the pretty fall days of Indiana and begin to look at the lil brown book seriously. Soon, Mother came out to talk to me and give her motherly advise about how she loved to read and that she d help me. But then something happened. For the first time in my whole life, I finished the very first chapter of that book and it was kind of interesting. So, I did what any mischievous kid would do; I d see what was in the next chapter by reading it, too, and I did. It took a while. The story was about a kind, big, dumb fellow and his smaller friend that looked after him. There was a bunk house and an old dog that didn t have any teeth, which made me laugh. By the end, I couldn t stop reading the story, but the ending had me in tears as it produced events I wasn t expecting. Once I got into the military and could manage things some, I mail ordered books weekly and read all the books that all my fellow classmates had read throughout high school years. I visited every library I could in the military. There was Catcher in the Rye, Old Man in the Sea, Macbeth, Marian Chronicles, 1984, and so much more. Then, I ordered books to teach myself algebra, geometry, trigonometry, physics, chemistry, and calculus. These remain in my library to this day. In my later years of going to college, I needed a transcript from the old high school. When I called Center Grove for that information, I asked the student in the office if Mrs. Wiseman still worked there, and found that she was going to retire soon. I asked the young lady to put a note in Mrs. W s mailbox that said, Thank you for making me read that book. I left no name. After 23 years out of high school, I so much wanted to share with Mrs. Wiseman of my success. I was now running the largest covalent bonding molecular weigh gases plant in the world, was teaching college business classes and running its hazmat educational program. I was a member of the U.S. Military Reserve, (of which I retired). My wife and I made a visit to see Mrs. Wiseman so I could thank her for making me read that book. I began weeping and tears immediately ran from our faces. The book Mrs. Wiseman chose to draw my interest to 47 years ago was Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. Today, I exchange books with a small study group of friends from all over the US and Canada, and I continue to visit libraries everywhere. I m retired today and manage to watch over a small cattle ranch operation, participate in American Legion and VFW and belong to several local non-profit community organizations. With the help of my classmate Jeanne, Mrs. Wiseman called me on my 65th birthday; she had just turned 90. Mrs. Wiseman passed away Sept. 21, 2016, just 39 days before her 91st birthday. Her influence to thousands of her Johnson County students will never be forgotten, especially by this writer. Gary A.

WHAT S NEXT: Rules were suspended for Ordinances.02-05, allowing for it to pass upon approval and will go into effect. Ordinances will undergo two additional readings. IN BRIEF Southport Police Chief Thomas Vaughn asked for the council to approve the expenditure of $14,210 for ballistic glass for the two windows at Perry Senior Services. This need is brought about because many people mistake Perry Seniors for the police department, which is in the same building. Clerk-Treasurer Diana Bossingham said the money is available. It will take the windows two to three weeks to get in and two days to install. The council also approved the expenditure of $28,890, from operating supplies budget, for new radios for the police department to be up to date. The department is currently four radios short for the new recruits. This will allow everyone to have a radio, and replace some of the old ones which are up to 20 years old.

They are so cute and playful. But you need to be aware of the needs of a puppy if you adopt one. There are many infectious diseases that can affect your new puppy (or older dogs for that matter). All new puppies need a series of vaccinations to protect them from some very common and some not quite as common diseases. These vaccinations should also be kept current for the lifetime of your dog. Parvo is a contagious viral infection. It can cause vomiting, bloody diarrhea, loss of appetite and lower the immune system s response to secondary infection. Depending on the age and health of the dog, parvo can cause severe illness or even death if not treated properly. It is spread by releasing the virus in the stool. So any dog who walks through the area where an infected dog has done his or her business will be at risk of being exposed. This virus is very contagious to improperly vaccinated dogs. It also lasts a very long time in the environment. Vaccines today are very protective against most viral infections. Each dog has different risks and may have different need for various vaccinations. However, as a general rule, all dogs should be vaccinated. If you have any questions about what your puppies need, please contact your veterinarian.

25 The Southside Times NIGHT & DAY ss-times.com Week of October 20-26, The Accountant; script, direction detract from entertaining flick By Adam Staten MOVIE REVIEW April 15th is a day most people absolutely dread. It s that annual time of year when Uncle Sam reaches into our wallets and pocketbooks as the government takes that which it feels it s entitled. And unless you re looking to spending quality time in prison, you grudgingly fork over that agreed upon amount. Nevertheless, as excruciatingly painful as writing that check or checks can be, preparing others taxes as a means of employment cannot be a ton of fun either: spending hours pouring over the mounds and mounds of regulations, and tax codes and with the added bonus of the possibility of audit. However, one recently released flick is about a CPA who seems to genuinely enjoy his profession. The Accountant is the story of Christian Wolff (Ben Affleck), a mild mannered, high-functioning autistic accountant. Wolff has the amazing ability to compute long, complicated mathematical problems in a matter of seconds and pour over stacks of tediously prepared financial files and discover the slightest discrepancy. Unfortunately, Wolff s impressive expertise with numbers soon puts his life and the lives of those around him in danger. Thanks to a glowing reference from a past client Wolff is hired by a large mechanical engineering firm after a mid-level accountant (Anna Kendrick) finds an incongruity in the company s books. Wolff then discovers millions of dollars are being funneled out of the company just to be put back in to artificially inflate its stock price. However, Wolff is not exactly the poster child for all that is clean and pure. He s been photographed with some of the world s most dangerous criminals. The authorities are hot on his trail trying to figure out who exactly is Christian Wolff. For a film called The Accountant, one would have thought the flick would have been better organized and thought out. However, the film s script is essentially a mess. The film moves at a snail s pace when attempting to develop essential characters. There is also entirely way too much backstory explained halfway through the film, as if the writer forgot to add those details earlier. It breaks up the flow of the film and makes for an extremely uneven movie. Coming off this year s less than well received Batman film, Affleck shows that he s more than capable of carrying an action movie. Kendrick and Oscar-winner J.K Simmons are both very good in supporting roles. While The Accountant is incredibly entertaining at times, the poorly organized script and mediocre direction are painfully obvious and distracting. 2.5 out of 5.

27 The Southside Times LIFESTYLE ss-times.com Week of October 20-26, Potent Pumpkin Power creates health By Wendell Fowler NUTRITION Scientifically speaking, pumpkins are a fruit. The orange super-star of plant foods is a vitamin-packed powerhouse which can be used as a low calorie appetizer, snack, soup or beverage. For everyday pumpkin pie needs canned will do. But in the fall, the best pumpkin is waiting for you at the local farmer s market or one of the many local pumpkin farm festivals. When I m around anything pumpkin my heart releases childhood memories of autumn s gray rainy days, warm mulled cider, outdoor football, cuddling, hay rides, harvest moons and glowing orange orbs bedecking porches while sugar-crazed children bounce off the walls. (We re handing out insulin again this year.) High fiber pumpkin once recommended for removing freckles and curing snake bites, is packed with the highest levels of vitamin A, providing about 246 percent of RDA. Research studies suggest foods rich in vitamin A help protect your temple against lung and oral cavity cancers. Vitamin A is a powerful natural anti-oxidant required for maintaining the integrity of skin and mucus membranes. Vitamin A, essential vitamin for good eye sight, is an excellent source of lutein and zea-xanthin that protects from "age-related macular disease" (ARMD) in the elderly. Vitamin A also helps control cholesterol and weight reduction.

It s pure and simple friends. If you don t eat enough fresh plant foods I guarantee you re going to get sick (er) sooner than later. God s glorious foods are a major source of heavenly nutrition, and one of the only ways to protect your sacred holy temple against malnutrition and disease. If you re coldsweat anxiously vegaphobic or suffer Lachanophobia, the fear of vegetables, better start getting your living will in order and saving up for hospital bills, because depriving your temple of what God set forth as the building blocks of life guarantees sickness and a crummy quality of life. Perhaps you ve forgotten you re a miracle. Kick the can so to speak and score a small, firm Pie Pumpkin that has no soft spots and a has a good orange color. You can usually obtain about 2 or 3 cups or puree per pumpkin. Wash it, cut it in half, and then place it cut side down in a baking pan that has about ¼ inch of water then bake at 350 for minutes (depending on size) or until tender, using a fork to check.

Job 12:1-4 By this time, Job has heard enough wisdom from his three friends. Have you ever been at a place in life where you do need comfort and help from friends but then they go too far with their advice? When I was a young pastor I thought it was necessary for me to have all of the answers that anyone who needed advice needed. After all, what did God call me into the ministry to do if not be all things to all people? I soon learned what most people want and what they need are two different things entirely. Job wanted his past life back but, it was not coming back no matter what. If he could not have his old life back then, at least, he wanted and explanation from God as to what it was all about? Why did God give him the children if He was only going to take them away? Job, like any father had plans for his children. Job enjoyed his wealth and his place-his reputation-as a righteous man who avoided evil. So, why did God bring that part of his life to an abrupt end? So many whys and no answers and his friends are sitting there with him essentially blaming him for the death of his kids and the loss of his wealth. He responds sarcastically to his friends that they must have a particular closeness to God to have such wisdom as they do. Then he adds, "I have understanding as well as you, I am not inferior to you. God sends the harsh times just as He sends the sunshine and the rain upon the grass of the field. The grass of the field needs both to prow and mature to productivity. So it is with us. 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.
