Volunteers donate 280 service hours during
Keep Southport Beautiful Day
Southport - Eighty-seven volunteers
spread throughout Southport to clean up the
city during the 11th Annual Keep Southport
Beautiful Day on April 18. Not only did they
fill a dump truck equal to a 30-yard dumpster
with debris from the city, they helped two elderly residents remove limbs from their yard.
Volunteers included Boy Scout Troop 120,
Cub Scout Pack 120, Daisy Girl Scout Troop
917, members of Bethel Church, residents,
neighbors, city officials and friends of Southport. Joan Miller, owner of 40 Minute Cleaners and president of the Greater Southside
Business Alliance, furnished the refreshments
and drinks for the clean-up.
“I want to thank all those who helped,” coordinator Duane Langreck wrote in an email
after the event. “They did a wonderful job. The
city is a cleaner place today and shows we have
pride and what we can accomplish when we a
work together. Thanks again to everyone.”

the 6th annual Street Survival Teen Emergency Car Control Clinic on May 3, 7:30 a.m. – 3
p.m. at Franklin Central High School. Drivers age 16-21 will learn how to swerve around
obstacles suddenly dropped in the road while
keeping their car under control, and all about
emergency stops, and how to recover from
a spin when their car finds a wet patch on a
country curve and more. National sponsors
include the Tire Rack (ever since Street Survival began), Michelin Tires, Enterprise Car
Rentals and, here in Indiana, Indiana Farmers
Mutual Insurance. Sign up now at StreetSurvival.org. Seats are limited.
Southport State Bank plaque is returned
Southport - History has been returned
to Southport. A bronze plaque with the words
“Southport State Bank” is now mounted to its
original place at 2201 E. Southport Rd., revealed during a dedication ceremony on April
17. Dozens of Perry Township residents, city
officials and state officials joined as the City of
Southport and Perry Township Historical Society honored the bank and the impact it had
when it was a thriving business in Southport.
Southport Mayor Jesse Testruth began the
April 17 dedication by discussing how the
plaque was discovered. The plaque caught attention from the City of Southport and the
Perry Township Historical Society at Christy’s Auction during a 2014 estate sale. Senator Brent Waltz dedicated the plaque, informing of the history of the bank. Southport State
Bank was originally owned by Jack Whalen.
On June 11, 1956, the bank was robbed of
$66,546, the second largest robbery in Indiana
history at that time. The suspect, Roy Rudolph
Drake, was arrested two days later.

Cornerstone Autism Center: A foundation for progress
By Cornerstone Autism Center
Since we opened our first center in
2010, it has been Cornerstone’s vision to be a foundation for
progress for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Our mission is to maximize those
who struggle, embrace those who love
and fulfill those who serve. Our three
centers—in Greenwood, West Lafayette and Columbus—are dedicated
to our mission. Our talented staff has
provided 1:1 Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) therapy to over 200 families
since our inception.
We have watched our clients grow in
communication, life skills, motor imitation, social abilities and independence.
Our website has a collection of success
stories, including 4-year-old Anna talking for
the first time and interacting with peers. Cornerstone employs a top-notch team, providing clients with the tools they need to succeed.
Our well-trained therapists are all Bachelors’
level or above, led by Masters’ level Board
Certified Behavior Analysts.
What sets us apart from other ABA providers? For starters, we use iPads to collect data
which results in dynamic and fast-moving
programs. We never outsource our billing.
Cornerstone has an insurance department
skilled at everything from checking benefits
and securing authorizations to processing
claims. In 2011, Cornerstone became the first
center in the Indianapolis area to accept Med-
icaid. We also have a clinical
psychologist on staff that is
able to diagnose or rule-out
autism in your child. You can
schedule an appointment if
you are seeing early signs or
developmental delays.
Cornerstone also offers
parent trainings, workshops
and support groups. Our
parent liaison meets with
families to provide individualized resources and support.
We host many events during
the year, including our Annual Biomedical Conference
at our Greenwood location.

READERS' WRITES
Perry Township schools
need a 'Yes' to grow
Perry Township’s schools are growing, and
while this is good news, the increase in our
student population has its challenges.
We are bursting at the seams in our elementary schools. They do not have the room
to facilitate the number of students currently enrolled or the students who will enroll in
the coming years. As a result, students are
placed in trailers outside of the school buildings, which presents a number of challenges
with instruction and student safety. Furthermore, the quality of our school district direct-
"I would like to see more trees in my yard because
I have none. I have two tree stumps. The trees died
and we cut them down. I do have a bush and little
dogwood tree, but it is about to die. I would like to
add flowers to the flower bed in my yard, maybe
plant some pine or blue spruce trees."
Sharon Embry of
Perry Township
"I think we are blessed in Garfield Park but I think
additional greenery along the Shelby Street corridor
down to UIndy would be nice. Also I think that we
could certainly spruce some things up around the
Southside Gateway adding some more shrubs and
greenery around there."
Dan Sassano of Garfield Park
Neighborhood
"We need to get rid of the parking lot on the
Northwest corner of Madison and Southport Road
and turn it into something like an apartment
complex or a new Southport library with a
greenspace or park. That would be great. It's a big
concrete jungle right now."
Jan Cooney
of Southport
"I think the corridor on Madison from 465 south
down to Southport Road or even Stop 11 could
use more green spaces, some more trees, flowers,
shrubs, and things like that. That would be great."
Harold Bowling of Perry Township

April's alive
and arborous
We don’t want to alarm anybody but we’re
already a third of the way through 2015—time
certainly does fly when you’re having fun.
Last week we shared all of the clean-up efforts going on throughout our communities
and we wanted to thank everyone for their
efforts in keeping the Southside a beautiful
place to live. It’s been an enjoyable sight to see
more and more folks coming out for evening
walks and dining on patios; why can’t it be this
nice all year round?

The ‘W’ in teams

By Gus Pearcy
and give the atmosphere a little oxygen boost,
the City of Greenwood is celebrating Arbor
Day by giving out free trees Friday, April 24
from 8 – 10 a.m. and 4:30 – 6 p.m. at Greenwood Community Center (100 Surina Way)
and the City Center Parking Lot (Main Street
and Madison Avenue). And even if you don’t
fancy yourself a green thumb, consider this
unattributed Chinese proverb: “The best time
to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second
best time is now.”
Besides, soon it’ll be 95°F and you’ll wish
you had more shade trees to keep you cool.

April is also national poetry month. As supporters of the arts, and a longtime tradition
of poets, we encourage everyone to carry a
poet in their pocket on April 30. Why something so seemingly silly, you ask? Tradition, of
course! Share your poems with us on Twitter
with the hashtag #pocketpoem.
BELIEVE IT!
Our nation has all sorts of arcane, nonsensical
laws on the books. Each week, we’ll share one
with you.…
Teams. Everything is done in teams. Teamwork is now a side curriculum at nearly every
educational institution. No one works alone.
It’s a team or nothing. You either learn to
contribute to a team or you can’t work anywhere in corporate America. How does stuff
get done? Teams. Groups. Partners. It’s not
just your workplace, it is everywhere. From
your nonprofit to the administration of your
daughter’s soccer league. There is no “I” in
team. Like no “I”deas, no “I”nnovation and no
“I”nspiration.
So it could come as no surprise that team
dynamics or effective teamwork has been analyzed by a team of scientists. Here is what
their team can tell you about your team.
First, this may seem counterintuitive, but
teams of geniuses can have just as bad outcomes as teams of orangutans. (Please accept
my apologies, orangutans of the world.) In
other words, smarties combined do not necessarily raise the intelligence level of a team.
Smarter teams make better decisions, but genius-loading a team doesn’t make the team
smarter as a whole. The same holds true for
group satisfaction, group cohesion, or group
motivation. None of these raised the collective intelligence of a team. So, if you can’t
overload the team with geniuses, what is the
best makeup of a team?
Women.
Studies have shown that teams with more
women did better on simulated tasks than
teams with more men. Grab a tissue, gentlemen, because the reasons are enough to make
you weep. Women have an ability to intuit
emotional states better than men, generally.
They score higher on tests where one must
determine an emotion in another with only
the eyes showing. I took the Reading the Mind
in the Eyes and I didn’t do very well. Women,
in hip language, “feel” the other members.
The effect is that the group individuals participate more. Constructive criticism is a regular part of the process. Groups with high social sensitivity also listen to other members.
There is a more even participation, rather than
a male blowhard with no sensitivity. However,
cognitive diversity (i.e. different personalities
and different approaches to problem solving)
is ultimately good for group intelligence. But
participation from all group members and a
sensitivity to soft sell the criticism seem to
create the best teams.
Although sensitive males are out there, the
easiest way to achieve this is to include some
women. You can’t have a team of all women
either. It’s more important to have the diversity, if you want your team to make better decisions.

Since John Mann became commander for
the Southeast District of the Indianapolis
Metropolitan Police Department in March,
he’s spent time listening to the thoughts of
residents, neighborhood associations, business owners and faith organizations. His goal
is to develop a more in-depth style of policing neighborhoods by adapting their actions
to the needs and concerns expressed by the
people that live and work in his district.
“I want to move away from what people think of the traditional policing model,”
Mann said. “In the early days, police officers
responded to calls and that’s it.
When we start listening to the
community, we become more in
tune to quality of life issues and
how can we help the residents,
the businesses with these quality of life issues with policing.”
Mann, a Decatur Central
High School graduate, graduated from Indiana State University with a Bachelor’s degree in business and Master's
in criminology. He said his father was a police officer, and
he always viewed police work
as a sincere, noble and proud
profession. Mann began his career with IMPD at a Southeast
District officer in 1992. He has
since worked as an arson investigator, crime strategist, with
the chief ’s office as an executive officer, among other duties.
He graduated from the FBI National Academy and the IMPD
Leadership Academy.
He resides in the Center Grove area with
his wife, Tina. They have four daughters.
“I’m lucky that I have the best job in the
world,” Mann said. “Really, there’s no better
job than being a police officer. It’s fun. You can
have an impact. You can find a real meaning in
helping people live better lives. I’m fortunate
and very humbled and blessed to serve the
Southeast district in the capacity that we do.”
What was your inspiration to
become a police officer?
My inspiration for becoming a police officer started with the ability to help people who
could not help themselves. Our profession is a
very noble profession. Not many people in society can have the privilege to serve a community in a way that our profession allows us to
serve... There’s a lot of pride in the job. There’s
a lot of pride in the community. To be joined
together with the community in a single mission, that’s a great honor.
What has been one of your most
gratifying on the job?
Taking command of the Southeast District.
The Southeast district has been my home the
last 22 years. To be able to have a direct effect
on the residents that I serve has been really
gratifying.
What aspect of the job do you
find most challenging?
In public safety, we’re always being asked
to do more with less. That can be challenging, working within budgets. Manpower can
be challenging.

John Mann
What do you enjoy doing in your off-time?
I like to play golf, read and spend time with
family.
What are your future goals, professionally
or personally?
I hope to continue to grow within the police
department. I hope to grow Southeast District
with the community with our outreach programs with our faith community along with
our business community. I hope to increase
the great partnership that we already enjoy
down here with the Southeast District and
our residents.
What would you have done if you hadn't of

COVER STORY
Amy Masterson has a passion for her
Beech Grove community, volunteering and
bringing attractive businesses to the area
By Nicole Davis
Amy and Mike Masterson recently found their perfect vacation
and future retirement home on a Tennessee lakefront. Their search
for the home was spotlighted in a 22-minute episode of Lakefront Bargain Hunt, an HGTV program. Although Amy says she
looks forward to spending more time at the scenic lakefront, Beech Grove is still where they call home.
“I don’t ever see not having Beech Grove nearly 20 years ago as home,” Amy said. “Our children were raised here and one
daughter still lives here. My mother lives here now. There’s something very soothing about calling Beech Grove my home. Ultimately I believe everyone in this community wants the same thing: for it to be prosperous, for it to be safe and have old-fashioned
values.”
Amy and Mike moved to Beech Grove when their children were young, attracted to the city because of Beech Grove City
Schools. She became involved in the Parent-Teacher Association at Central Elementary in her first year in the city. She said she
saw how her children appreciated the adults taking interest in them and their activities and said it was then that she came to the
realization that being involved was more than about family.
She continued to serve on PTAs through the high school level. She was a six-year board member of the girls’ softball association. She became a member of the Beech Grove Business Alliance, now Greater Beech Grove Chamber of Commerce, in 2002
after purchasing the first investment property at 7th Avenue and Main Street through Masterson Properties in 2001.
“The building at 7th and Main was in a state of semi-disrepair,” Masterson said. “We saw it as an opportunity of preservation.
We worked very hard to have the community and our investment pieces of the properties be something we’re proud of. We’ve
updated, modernized and repaired and restored almost every aspect and inch of the building. It was built in 1905, so it will last
another 100 years."
That Main Street property is currently home to The Vault, Celestial Bodies Tattoo, Piercing & Art Gallery, Harlow Rouge Couture, Face It You’re Nailed and coming soon, D’s Taps.
“Our goal was to make it a destination place so there was some place to go on Main Street and I think we’ve accomplished that,”
Amy said. “We based it off what would we want in a community. Do they have good business ideas and something that would attract other people? It’s all about destination and places that myself or others like me would like to go to.”
Celestial Bodies owner Maria Cadaver said Amy was a big influence to the success of opening the business two years ago: April
29, 2013. At that time, the community was hesitant to the idea of having a tattoo shop on Main Street.
“This is my first shop,” Maria said. “The first location we lost due to zoning restrictions in the Irvington area... Amy Masterson
is the owner of this building. When I came here, she really worked with me, wrote some provisions to the lease that if we lost the
zoning, I could get out of the contract. Amy got up and talked (at the zoning meeting) for me and I think that helped sway the
vote.”
The additional properties that Masterson Properties manages are residential, aside from Maddigan Daniel R DDS on 7th and
Main. They recently sold 58 of their 80 condo units, which has left some extra time on Amy’s hands, and she said she’s found a
renewed interest in volunteering, especially for nonprofits such as Lifebridge Community in Beech Grove. As she continues to
contribute to her community, she says she looks forward to the ongoing growth and opportunities that the city offers.
“One of the things I love about Beech Grove and the development of my own business was that I could not have done it without other local business, being Ciriello Plumbing, Lamping/Huser Heating and Cooling, Michael Hughes for electrical and at
the time it was Warren Whitaker State farm and now Brian Seyfert. If it wasn’t for their leadership, mentoring and services they
provide, I would have gone crazy and jumped ship years ago.”

or Friday, May 8 at 6:30 p.m.
Visit: watch.hgtv.com
While the episode of Lakefront Bargain Hunt featuring Beech Grove residents Amy
and Mike Masterson was initially planned to air on April 23, the couple was surprised
with an early airing. Season 2: Episode 5 aired April 20, 8 p.m. For those who missed

The premise of the show was to follow Amy and Mike as they searched for their
ideal home that met their budget and other criteria. The production company followed the couple along with their real estate agent, Beth Ellison of Ellison Realty for
four days this past fall.
“After the first day, I was absolutely exhausted,” Amy said. “It was more involved Amy and Mike Masterson were filmed for the
than I had anticipated. From actually (putting on the microphone) and making sure HGTV show Lakefront Bargain Hunt when
that the sound quality and voices could be heard were things I didn’t anticipate need- looking for their vacation and future retirement
home in Tennessee.
ing to be done. But by the end of the fourth day it seemed second nature.”

Amy said they are pleased with the way their experience viewing the homes and
enjoying the lakefront activities was edited into the episode.
“We had a wonderful time with the production group and being able to see houses that would or did meet our criteria. It was
beautiful scenery in the fall to be able to do it, with activities that we could take advantage of like paddle boarding and jet skiing.”

7th Avenue and Main Street in 2001. She has aimed to transform the area a destination spot.

BACI hosts young leaders from Burma
Indianapolis - The Burmese American Community Institute

days during a three-week program led by the Office of International
Development at Indiana University Bloomington and supported by the
U.S. Department of State. A group of 18 students representing different

Paranormal investigators wait as the evening sunlight fades gradually into a
"world of darkness." Photo by Rick Hinton
Darkness falls…
HAUNTS & JAUNTS
By Rick Hinton
A paranormal investigator’s journey into a
world of darkness:
The southern Kentucky region introduced
an inquisitive youth to a realm of possibilities.
The ghost stories of family members only added fuel to the fire. And there was of course the
darkness! What is it about a rural countryside
setting, locked firmly in the grasp of a summer
night where crickets sing out across a rolling
field of tobacco, and an army of fireflies appear as the late afternoon surrenders into the
grasp of the night? Was it the story from my
mother about the apparition of her deceased
sister on the graveled road across from my
grandparent’s house? Was it my grandmother’s reluctance to talk about it? Or was it the
lone streetlight illumination across the front
lawn, creating a boundary between darkness
and the light?
The Grand Canyon in Arizona—where a
lad in his early 20s discovered the West that
he had only heard about from John Wayne
movies. There was the darkness! We learned
very early to sojourn during the hot daylight
hours and then do our hiking at night when
it was cooler. On most occasions I would take
the lead, sometimes by a mile or so. I was
alone and in the dark, hiking by the light of
the moon. It gave me solitary time to ponder
on this foreign world of shadows and mystery.
I moved through a landscape of desert, pink
rattlesnakes, cactus, and tall dark shadows
that followed me in my peripheral vision. It
was also my introduction to UFOs ping-ponging an irregular route across the horizon.
During my years in Oregon I had the opportunity to spend time in the mountains. It
was during those nighttime explorations I realized a different world after the sun set. It’s
amazing how childlike emotions reemerge as
a result of the flickering flames of a campfire
illuminating a narrow expanse of surrounding tree line, leaving the sounds of trampled
brush, fallen branches, and glowing eyes just
out of our reach in the blackness.
Darkness brings about a realization that we
are perhaps out of our element; and the feeling of being small and alone. A life of possibilities occasionally reveals themselves in small
glimpses of insight. These glimpses can make
a profound statement!
Ghosts, spirits, goblins, Bigfoot, and UFOs
all seem to coexist in the world of darkness. It
is their time to come out and play! And perhaps, our time to observe.

researching things that go bump in the
night. His articles can be read on Facebook;

Beware the debt
collection scam
Though this tactic may be one of the oldest in the con artist’s strategic grimoire
of thievery, scammers now have a new
method that’s gaining popularity. Fraudulent entities can scan various Internet databases for personal and financial information, so scammers may appear to be
“collecting” legitimate debts. Some questions to deter would-be scammers if they
contact you: “What is your professional license number and the name, address and
phone number of the company you’re
calling from?”“What are the last four digits
of the debtor’s Social Security number?”
“Will you send me a ‘validation notice?’”
Any calls that seem illegitimate should be
reported to the Federal Trade Commission. – Consumer Reports

Ex Machina… well-written, excellently
directed psychological thriller
MOVIE REVIEW
By Adam Staten
From your smartphone to the GPS navigational system in your car to the checkout at the
supermarket, technology literally surrounds
us. Technology is such a pervasive and all-encompassing element of society
that you would have a difficult
time functioning in everyday life without it. It has also
reached the point where technology is constantly improving and evolving that what
once seemed impossible is
much more likely. The new
film Ex Machina looks at this
perpetually and continuously
fluctuating state of technology
and the issues that accompany
these technological improvements.
Ex Machina is set in the not-so-distant future where artificial intelligence is not yet fully-developed, but the technology is right on the
brink of the major invention. The film centers
on Caleb, a computer programmer without out
any family or any connections of any kind. One
day, while sitting at his desk, Caleb is alerted
that he is the winner of a company-wide contest. Caleb is immediately whisked away to a
remote residence in the mountains only reachable via helicopter. From there Caleb spends
the week with Nathan, the reclusive billionaire
owner of the company that employs Caleb.
Taken aback by the odd and mysterious Nathan and his present surroundings, Caleb is
not quite sure what to expect. However, nothing could have prepared him for what Nathan

unveils. Nathan has actually managed to create
artificial intelligence that looks and acts eerily
similar to a human being.
While the plot of Ex Machina is not incredibly complex, the writing is absolutely terrific.
The film examines several relevant aspects of
today’s society such as the ever-expanding and
evolving nature of technology, the loss of privacy and the
NSA and government overreach. There are only a handful of characters who ever appear on screen, but each one
is so well-rounded, fully-developed and conflicted that
the minimal cast is extremely
well suited for this well crafted film.
In addition to the excellent
writing, Ex Machina is also
expertly directed. For a film that could have easily become boring and mundane, that is never
the case here. Tension is maintained throughout the entire film and oddly it’s able to keep
you on the edge of your seat the entire film.
Ex Machina is a well written and well-directed film that looks at some very relevant topics.
Even though it is still relatively early in 2015, Ex
Machina is the best film so far this year.

Fun Facts from National Geographic
"Located in southeast Europe, CROATIA is
geographically diverse. The crescent-shaped
country features low mountains and highlands
near the Adriatic coastline, flat plains that hug
the Hungarian border, and a multitude of islands.
Several different ethnic groups can be found in
the republic. Croats are
by far the largest ethnic
group in Croatia. Serbs
make up the largest
minority group; however,
their numbers fell
after the 1990s war of
independence—from more
than one-tenth of the
population before the war
to less than half that many
in 2001. Rabbits, foxes, boars,
wildcats, and wild sheep are found
in the plains areas, while wolves and even bears
can be found in the inland forests. Sea life in the
Adriatic is rich as well, with many coral reefs and
underwater caves serving as habitats. The Croatian
president is elected by popular vote to a five-year
term and is head of state. The prime minister is
head of government. The president appoints the
prime minister, who must also be approved by
parliament. Croatia's parliament consists of a 151seat House of Representatives."

By Chef Wendell Fowler
You think you’re too busy with life to lift a
knife? Get over yourself and listen up friends.
If you consider Fruit Loops your daily dose
of fruits, then you’re on the slippery slope
of convenience addiction and your family’s
health may be paying the price. Red, white
and blue unhealthy Americans are either embarrassingly addicted to convenience or really,
really lazy. If you think you can’t slow down
long enough prepare fresh fruit salad, please
think again. It’s not difficult at all, plus it can
be good family fun to assemble and share.
Assuming they’re healthy you’ve probably
purchased convenient little opaque cups, tin
cans, or glass jars of pre-made fruit salad lining grocery shelves? American’s are unknowingly buying sugar, artificial color, and high
fructose corn syrup-laden fruit salad that
was harvested, hopefully washed, peeled,
chopped, mechanically packaged and shipped
from, yep, either China, Mexico, Thailand or
the Philippines. These distant countries have
vastly dissimilar interpretations of sanitation
and responsible agrichemical usage. Plus, this
stuff is weeks, maybe months old, hence nutritionally DOA. Fresh is infinitely best for glowing family health.
Next time you shop for the family, please
think to pick up a cup, can, or jar to see where
it was packaged. Read the label closely. What’s
the expiration date? Then do an about-face,
march to the produce department, seek the
organic offerings and select your favorite
fruits. If you don’t know how to peel and chop
them, then do a Google search like you do for
just about everything else. Learning is what
life’s all about.
You deserve so much better, my Hoosier
friends. You must learn how simple it is to
prepare fresh, nutritious, sun blessed fruit salad at home with the family. It’s not rocket science. Fresh is infinitely best for glowing family health.
Now, not next week, is the time to break
away from misguided mind patterns that have
dominated America’s food perceptions and
created unimaginable human suffering on a
vast scale. America’s time-bound mode of eating is deeply embedded in the human psyche.
We must break the chains of dietary self-destruction. The miracle called your holy temple
was created to express perfect health.
You are worthy and capable of achieving so
much more than you’ve been led to believe.
Preparing fresh, healthy meals instead of processed food is an act of love toward yourself
and those for who you cook for.

Natural ways to sleep better
For The Southside Times by Family Features
An estimated 50-70 million adults in the
U.S. suffer from sleep disturbances, leaving
many searching for natural, cost-effective solutions to improve sleep quality.
“Getting proper sleep has never been more important – inadequate sleep is considered a risk
factor for obesity, heart disease
and other chronic diseases,” said
Dr. Carol Ash, Director of Sleep
Medicine for Meridian Health in
New Jersey.
Americans’ ongoing sleep
problems have caused an uptick
in the use of sleep aids, although
Ash recommends starting with
your fridge rather than the medicine cabinet.
“Take a look at your diet,” said Ash. “Cut
down on caffeine and alcohol, particularly in
the evening, and instead of reaching for an extra cup of coffee in the morning, try drinking
a glass of tart cherry juice at night. Research
shows tart cherry juice can help reduce the
severity of insomnia and improve sleep efficiency.”
Ash recommends creating a bedtime routine with these simple suggestions for a better
night’s rest:
• Go red before bed: Change your bedtime
ritual by adding tart cherries to your routine.
Get started by drinking a glass of tart cherry
juice in the evening before you go to bed for
seven consecutive days.
• Be anti-social: The screens from gadgets
can emit blue light that suppresses the sleep
hormone melatonin causing alertness, so for-
get about social media before bed. Keep the
room quiet, dark and cool, creating a calm
sanctuary.
• Hit the gym: Decompress from stress with
exercise. Exercise anytime is good for improving sleep patterns.
• Set your internal alarm:
Keep the same bedtime and
wake-up time every day, which
helps to set your biological clock
that controls rhythms for wake
and sleep.
Available year-round in dried,
juice and frozen forms, tart cherries are an easy and flavorful addition to your daily diet. Try this
delicious Tart Cherry and Mango Smoothie.
For more recipes and information on tart cherries, visit
ChooseCherries.com.
Tart Cherry &
Mango Smoothie
Recipe courtesy of Dara Michalski,
CookinCanuck.com
Prep time: 5 minutes; Servings: 2
• 1 1/2 cups tart cherry juice
• 1 1/2 cups frozen mango chunks
• 3/4 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon agave nectar or honey
Place tart cherry juice, frozen mango
chunks, Greek yogurt and agave nectar in
heavy-duty blender. Puree until smooth.
Pour into 2 glasses and serve.
GRAMMAR GUY
By Jordan Fischer
Incorrect, over-enthusiastic and, frankly,
odd capitalization decisions are mistakes we
see frequently in the editing world.
I think most people remember the basic
rules from English class: Do capitalize the
first word of a sentence, proper nouns, the
first word of a quotation, titles that precede
a name, days of the week, etc. Don’t capitalize the seasons (spring, summer, fall, winter),
compass directions unless referring to specific regions (For example, Alabama is in the
South, but is located south of Indiana.), or
general subjects in school (math, physical education, health).
Of course, the beauty of our world is that
there is so much more to write about beyond
the basic rules. This is also the area where
mistakes start to slip in.
A big source of confusion for many people
seems to come from titles and academic degrees. As I mentioned earlier, I think most
people are comfortable with what to do with
a title that precedes a name: you capitalize
it. For example, assuming you are reading
this column on Tuesday and are 18 years old,
hopefully you voted or will be voting for candidates running for local offices. While the
choices might be difficult for some, the rule
isn’t: if a title comes before a name, capitalize it.
What if the title is located somewhere else,
though, or there is no name attached to it?

Quimby pursues medicine
following Ohio graduation
Greenwood gives trees
away for Arbor Day
Beech Grove - Donald Quimby, Jr. of
Beech Grove, will pursue Internal Medicine
at University of Cincinnati Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, following graduation from Northeast Ohio Medical University
(NEOMED) this spring. Quimby, Jr. was one
of 128 students from the College of Medicine's
Class of 2015 who participated in national
Match Day, March 20, where students from
across the nation learned where they will continue their medical training in residency programs following graduation. Quimby, Jr. is a
graduate of Beech Grove High School and The
Ohio State University. For more information,
visit neomed.edu.
Greenwood – Celebrate Arbor Day on
Friday with Greenwood Parks & Recreation
by picking up a free tree. The giveaway is from
8 a.m. – 10 a.m. and 4:30 to 6 p.m. at two locations: Greenwood Community Center, 100
Surina Way, and in the Public Parking lot
north of the City Center, Main and Madison.

What if, for example, your choices on the ballot were Barack Obama, president of the United States, and Mitt Romney, former governor
of Massachusetts? Since the titles follow the
name, they are considered to be used as descriptors and thus no capitalization is needed.
Similarly, were you to refer to the candidates
as the president and the governor, you would
not capitalize their titles. The exception, since
there must be one, would be if you are addressing one or the other directly, in which
case you would say Mr. President or Mr. Governor with a capital letter.
College degrees follow very similar capitalization rules. If they precede a name –
Bachelor of Arts Jordan Fischer, for example
– they get to be capitalized. If they follow a
name – Jordan Fischer, bachelor of arts – they
don’t. As I’m typing this, I notice that Microsoft Word wants the latter degree capitalized
as well. Just ignore that little green squiggly;
we’re smarter than the computer on this one.
As a final note, academic subjects in degrees
follow the same rules as normal: Capitalize
proper nouns like English and French. Don’t
capitalize general courses like mathematics
unless referring to a specific course: Algebra
II, Modern Dance 101, etc.

DEVOTIONAL
By Paul Kirby
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the
prophets, and stonest them which are sent
unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy
children together, even as a hen gathereth her
chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh
in the name of the Lord."
~ Matthew 27:37-39
If one were to understand the implications
of this, Christ is saying to Jerusalem that it
will be hopeless and helpless and alone until it
comes to terms with the fact that it had an opportunity to become the center of all of the activity of the kingdom of God but rejected the
King that would make that happen. I might
add here that lest we think that we are better
than they, the same Christ can make the same
pronouncement over our congregations that
He made over Jerusalem.
It appears to me that so many are ignoring
the doctrines of the kingdom of God and are
putting in its place a social gospel that completely changes the very nature of the Gospel.
The Gospel of the Kingdom of God was never
intended for the world for the world cannot
comprehend the nature of it. Jesus told Nicodemus that unless he was "born again" he
could not see nor enter the Kingdom of God.
This means that the unregenerate sinner can-
not see (comprehend or understand) the Kingdom of God or its nature. This was Jerusalem's
problem and it is why there is such controversy over the world's attempt to impose its agenda upon the church. In today's world, as then,
there is this attempt on the part of the world to
shape the church in its image and its likeness
when the church is to take on the likeness and
image of Christ. I don't need for the world to
tell me, a Christian, what Christ would do in
situations. I know full well that Christ ate with
sinners but what the world does not get is that
He did so to change them and not to be one
of them. What is true of Christ is true of His
Church (His Kingdom). Christ could empathize and sympathize with the sinner but He
was never guilty of any of their sins. He was
tempted by all of their sins but never gave an
inch to any of them. The world seems to think
(and some have even said so) that Christ Jesus committed sins just like all of the rest of
us. No!
Christ was not a sinner. He condemned the
practice of sin. He made His pronouncement
over Jerusalem because it could not see either
He or His Kingdom which was and still is the
Kingdom of His Father. How sorrowful He
must have been and must yet be. We still don't
get it, do we? Think about it.
God bless and go and have a great day.
