Stay and shop FEATURE By Nicole Davis Twelve vendors will sell unique items along with merchandise such as Pampered Chef, Scentsy candles and Michi purses and accessories at the third annual Fall Fun Fest 2013, Oct. 19, 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. at Wheatley’s, 8902 Southeastern Ave. Sponsored by Purseptions, owner Melinda Reynolds encourages community members to attend, despite rough road conditions surrounding the location. 3 Fall Fun Fest 2013 offers unique items for sale for its third year, despite Wanamaker construction “We usually have at least 60 percent of the vendors returning annually, so people look forward to picking up their pampered chef or Scentsy candles because they know now that in the spring and fall they can do this,” Reynolds said. “They know it’s coming in Wanamaker. I’m just looking forward to having fun, selling jewelry and handbags.” The construction on Southeastern Avenue has taken up half of the road, on Purseptions’ side. The festival at Wheatley’s is caddy corner, but there is parking in the rear of the shop, with additional parking down the road. Purseptions sponsors the vendor fair twice a year, once in the spring and in the fall. Reynolds said she enjoys spending the extra time with customers and spreading some jewelry out for sale. Each of the 12 vendors has donated door prizes to fill a large decorative box, usually a $150 value. Attendant will receive a door prize ticket upon entering the festival, and another ticket when they buy items with each vendor. A breakfast will be served until 11 a.m., so Reynolds encourages people to come in to eat, and stay to shop. “Shopping on Saturdays, especially when it’s getting near Christmas, it’s just fun,” Reynolds said. “You can go through and see different types of items to start your Christmas shopping instead of going to a huge department store you see unique items in this little vendor fair.” Murder mystery at GHS IN OUR SCHOOLS For SST by Kayla Jones, GHS student reporter A product of ss-times.com • October 17, 2013 Brian Kelly Chief Executive Officer Gerald Sargent Publisher Emeritus Rick Myers Publisher Nicole Davis Editor Carey Germana Production & Design For more information, contact us at: [email protected] Tel. 317.300.8782 Fax. 317.300.8786 7670 US 31 S Indianapolis, IN 46227 www.ss-times.com A bloody handprint on top a book marks the spot of the first clue.

Recently seniors at Greenwood Community High School had 50 minutes to solve a murder mystery through the use of literary elements and clues made by English teacher Ms. Alicia Tersptra. Throughout September, the students read and analyzed the Shakespeare play Macbeth. The play begins with a trio of witches who deceive Macbeth the foretelling of his future. In order to gain the throne, Macbeth kills off all who stand in his way. After becoming King of Cumberland, he continues to murder all those her are suspicious of him. This knocks off the natural order of things and pushing his kingdom to chaos.

So what will this mean to students returning to school after their fall breaks? Well, not too much. “Our school system was already approaching it,” said Dr. Tom Keely, assistant superintendent for Beech Grove City Schools. “It was already pretty much engrained, but it really just helped us define the steps. Sometimes legislation really just highlights and coordinates our efforts. Instead of telling us we have to do something new, that’s not what the legislation has done here. It clarifies something we’re already doing. I would think the majority of schools already paid attention to this.” All Southside schools, including Beech Grove, Greenwood Community, Franklin Township, Perry Township, Roncalli, Center Grove and Greenwood have reported that they have made the changes to become compliant with the legislation. So what’s in the new mandate and how does it apply to the schools? 1. Schools must report incidents to the Indiana Department of Education after deter- mining that “bullying” actually occurred. Many schools already had a system to report bullying instances. They just needed to alter that to use the new language introduced by the new definition of bullying. For example, Greenwood already used a program called Power School, a student management system that all grades, attendance, everything is in. Superintendent Kent DeKoninck said they were able to work with the program to make the changes needed to document appropriately. 2. Create a safe school committee in each school building within a school corporation. 3. Train students from grades 1-12 on bullying prevention no later than Oct. 15. People in blue shirts have been worn around most Southside schools, a visual of students, teachers, administration and the community standing against bullying. Schools have hosted numerous activities this year to educate students on what bullying is, and how to stand against it. Beech Grove administration has a binder filled with anti-bullying resources, including educational activities each school conducts. This includes everything from character edu- The Southside Times How are Southside schools complying with Indiana’s new anti-bullying mandate? cation to Bucket Fillers, where youth at Hornet Park Elementary carries a bucket that holds good thoughts and feelings. Students understand they can fill the buckets when they do and say kind and respectful things. This gives students a visual message which Laura Hammack, director of quality learners, said has worked well. A similar activity is done in Franklin Township at Adams and South Creek Elementary, called “filling a student’s bucket.” Franklin Township Community School Corporation has for many years implemented a Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports (PBIS) system in addition to an intentional bullying prevention program. PBIS plans include analyzing behavior at each school while teaching students appropriate behaviors and recognizing positive behavior that promotes a safe learning environment. “As part of the school PBIS plan at Arlington Elementary, for example, students can earn STAR tickets,” wrote Superintendent Flora Reichandater. “STAR tickets are given to students who show positive behavior throughout the school year. The stars are deposited into collection bins located throughout the school building. Each Friday on morning announcements tickets are drawn from those students who are in the collection bins. Tickets are also tabulated per student and for every 5 tickets a student earns they are awarded a STAR token to place on a chain.” Reichandater continued, “Annually our counselors visit each classroom at each school and conduct specific instruction on bully prevention, expectations for student behavior and ways to report a bullying incident. It is not uncommon for a school to host a special convocation designed to bring awareness about bullying or for counselors to meet with individuals or students in small groups. This year at FTMS West, the counselors introduced a new event called Girls’ Night Out. West Middle School counselors Danielle Etter and Calvalyn Day sponsored a Girls’Night Out event for 6th grade girls and a significant woman role model in their life.” 4. Schools must have a detailed procedure to provide a swift response to bullying investigations. As a way to assist in a faster resolution process, Beech Grove schools will introduce a tip line when students return from fall break. Each student will receive a flier with contact information to be able to provide an anonymous tip through Safe Schools Alert. In this form of communication, anyone can leave a legitimate anonymous tip, for which they receive a code number. They can reenter that code number at any time to see what is being done about their tip, and to communicate back and forth – all anonymously. 5. Become familiar with the new definition of bullying. Bullying is defined as “unwanted, repeated acts or gestures, including verbal or written communications.” The new definition includes electronic communications, even when conducted outside of school. “Because on Monday when they come to school, it’s the school’s problem,” Keely said. Bullying is not a religious event or certain gang activity. Just because two people are in a conflict and get in a fight – that is a single event and not considered bullying. 6. Provide bullying prevention training to the school corporation’s employees and ☞ Cover Story continued on page 5 COMMUNITY The Southside Times ☞ Cover Story continued from page 4 volunteers who have direct, ongoing contact with students. Keely said holding an all-staff training meeting was one of his favorite experiences this year in complying with the legislation. “It was one of the best opportunities I’ve had to look at our staff and say even if you’re not a teacher in front of a classroom, but your opinion matters, too,” Keely said. “Far too often things happen, say in the case of suicide, that someone knows that student was depressed.” What do school administrators think about the changes? DeKoninck said anti-bullying has been a popular conversation in superintendent meetings, making sure they all work together to remain compliant. “Any more we can’t say it’s just kids being kids,” DeKoninck said. “Unfortunately we are in a day and age where bullying has cost people their lives. Most schools are doing many of these items anyway, it’s just making sure we are doing all of the documenting and addressing the issue. I applaud that and think any step they take to prevent that is a good thing.” Because of the advanced documentation they have created to be able to report properly to the IDOE, Hammock said it has helped further the steps they take to prevent something bad from occurring. “We don’t dismiss bullying,” Hammack said. “We know it happens here in this district. This district does really good at being proactive. Our response is we’re clearly aware that it’s out there, and we will do all we can to prevent it. When somebody asks, what do you do? Now we have something to show them.” Sunday • October 27, 2013 FREE HOG ROAST Live Music from Noon till Close - Amanda Taylor-Bray, Greenwood “I do believe there is a problem with bullying because in some schools they will just say, ‘Hey, quit bullying children,’ and then, like, they may stop bullying for a short time period and then they go back to doing it. And then there’s also cyber bullying which is a huge problem. And also because of that problem, are having low self-esteem which will not end well when they get older.” Come Celebrate 35 YEARS PURE GOLD BAND MUSIC!

And there are many more ways to reach out to each other than face to face, which makes it a little bit easier to say cruel things about people when you don’t have to look them in the eye. On the counter side of that, I think in some ways we are over sensitive since everybody has access to everybody else’s information—we tend to see a lot more and not necessarily take everything with a grain of salt. So I think it’s a two-sided coin. I think both are very possible.” 5 PURE GOLD BAND’S 35th Birthday Bash Q: Do you believe there is a bullying “I think it’s both. I think a lot of the social media kind of exacerbates it. I feel like bullying, in general, in school it’s never going to go away, no matter what you do. But I think social media and when kids are at home and behind computers, it makes it worse. But I think people have become overly sensitive to where they generalize anything and everything as bullying.” ss-times.com • October 17, 2013 The GROVE SPORTS BAR & EATERY Pure Gold Band 3206 S Emerson Ave Beech Grove IN 46107 (317) 787-0736 CHANGE LANES AND SEE THE ALL-NEW 2014 LEXUS MODELS. - Jill Laker, resident of Beech Grove “There is a bullying problem.

Recently, The Southside Times received a letter from Caleb Brown, a Boy Scout residing in Bargersville. He is working on his Eagle Scout project, centering on Christmas. He writes, “In my house Christmas trees are a big tradition. I love to come down stairs on Christmas morning and see the presents under the tree. I know that there are families in Johnson County that don’t have Christmas trees, so my Eagle project is to make Christmas trees for 150 needy families that the Inter Church Food Pantry of Johnson County serves. I plan to make this a green project by recycling old tomato cages and Christmas decorations.” Caleb is requesting donations of artificial pine garland, tinsel, ornaments, lights and money. He needs the donations by Oct. 25 to prepare for his project and will assemble the trees on Nov. 15 and 16. E-mail hbrown90@ comcast.net for more information. What a great initiative!

But far too many people, including baby boomers, don’t get the exercise they need. According to the 2012 Participation Report from the Physical Activity Council (PAC), 35 percent of Americans over the age of 55 are physically inactive. Since regular exercise helps control blood pressure, body weight, cholesterol and so much more, boomers need to find ways to get their bodies moving so they can live longer, healthier lives. “Though any amount of exercise is beneficial, ultimately adults should work up to getting at least 30 minutes most days of the week, as long as they feel comfortable and painfree,” said world-renowned nutritionist Joy Bauer. “From taking a Zumba class to walking and stretching, getting regular physical activity helps the joints stay loose, maintains muscle mass, and gets the blood flowing – all of which make everyday tasks easier.” The American Council on Exercise recommends older Americans choose exercise programs that include cardiovascular, muscle conditioning, and flexibility exercises. Lowimpact, non-jarring exercises such as walking and swimming are good options. A key to sticking with a fitness program is making sure it’s enjoyable. A fun new program for older adults is Zumba Gold, a low-impact dance-based workout designed specifically for boomers and seniors. Workout routines combine salsa, merengue, flamenco and cumbia moves with fun music. For those that would prefer to work out in the comfort of their own home, there is also a Zumba Gold “Live it Up” DVD collection that offers 3 discs with workouts, as well as advice from experts in the fields of nutrition, brain health, enhancing your well-being and more. The program was created by 71-year-old Joy Prouty, a veteran in the fitness industry and a former Rockette. “From cardio to toning, this collection brings together some of Zumba’s most popular offerings in a format enabling older adults to rediscover the energy of their youth,” said Prouty. To learn more about Zumba Gold, purchase the Zumba Gold “Live it Up” DVDs and find a class near you, visit www.zumbagold.com. Workout Safety Tips Whenever beginning a new fitness activity or program, make sure you do it safely. • Wear comfortable shoes that fit well. • Stay hydrated with plenty of fluids. • Listen to your body. If it hurts or it feels like too much, stop. You also need to be aware of danger signs while exercising. Stop the activity and call your doctor or 911 if you experience pain or pressure in your chest, arms, neck or jaw; feel lightheaded, nauseated or weak; become short of breath; develop pain in your legs, calves or back; or feel like your heart is beating too fast or skipping beats. “It’s important to see your doctor before beginning any workout routine to receive a thorough cardiovascular evaluation,” said Bauer. “Once you’ve been cleared by your doctor, I recommend starting out slowly.” Pick an Activity that You Will Enjoy The best way to find a regimen that will stick is to choose something that you enjoy. You’ll be more likely to stick with it and reap all the benefits the physical activity has to offer. Bauer adds that a program like Zumba Gold is great because, if you enjoy dancing, it won’t feel like exercise and it can also be a social outlet: “Combining physical activity with social time is a total win-win.” IT’S GOLDEN The gift of hearing FEATURE For SSTimes by Advanced Hearing Technologies The gift of hearing is one of the most precious a person has. What would life be like if you could no longer enjoy the laughter of your children or grandchildren, relax with your favorite music or television program, or share a lively conversation with friends? Why trust your hearing to a company interested more in your money and selling you a new set of digital hearing aids than your well-being? With Advanced Hearing Technologies, our focus is on your satisfaction in improving your quality of life. In business for over 20 years, Advanced Hearing Technologies offers these free hearing evaluations to local residents. “We first give a full hearing test and ear evaluation and explain the results in a way anyone can understand,” says founder and president Robert Hutchcraft. “Many times hearing loss is caused by earwax or a blockage. We will look in your ear with a video otoscope that allows you to see what we see in your ear.” Hutchcraft has built Advanced Hearing Technologies on legendary customer service, with competitive pricing and lifetime service on hearing aid purchases. “Our entire staff works hard to maintain the highest standards of customer service,” he adds. Advanced Hearing Technologies currently operates 18 stores in four states and continues to offer quality hearing aids and hearing services to area residents. Some hearing aid companies outsource technicians, while some may be entirely comprised of salespeople with little to no experience in the hearing industry! At Advanced Hearing Technologies, we are not salespeople, but hearing specialists devoted to manufacturing the highest quality hearing devices in the country. Our local Hearing Aid Specialist – Chad Huffman – travels to locations in both the Greenwood and North Indianapolis areas. What makes Advanced Hearing Technologies unique? Before we even begin to recommend hearing aids, we test your hearing abilities to determine if you need one at all. All of our free hearing tests are performed by trained personnel experienced in the latest hearing technology and equipment, all at no cost or obligation to you!

It’s not uncommon for a family member to call one of our communities and ask, “How do I know when it’s time to move to my parent to Assisted Living, or for that matter, when it’s time for Long Term Care?” This is a difficult question to answer, and more importantly, a difficult conversation to have with a loved one. Unfortunately, there no hard fast rules to follow when answering the “when is it right?” question. There are some key things to think about though. A recent AARP study found that older adults feel more comfortable having this discussion when things are going well for them. It’s more of a planning for the future versus a “right now” type of decision. Start the conversation by ensuring your loved one that you love and care about them and that is why you want to start planning for the future. As well, be sure to include your loved one in the actual decision making process. No one likes decisions being made about them or their future without their own input, and this is no different. Set a few appointments to look at some communities, then narrow it down to two or three and take your loved one back to get their input. When you go to tour with your loved one, have a few residents identified ahead of time that they can talk to. They can be a great testament to the benefits of living in a senior community. Or, even better, take your loved one to an event the community is hosting. Talk to friends who have gone through this process as well. They may have some good tips for what worked well for them. But remember, everyone’s experience through this process will be different. For more information about any of the CarDon communities, you can visit www.cardon.us.

For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now." ~ Romans 8:21-22 Our founders set out to create a new nation and wound up changing the world. I must ask myself today what this world would have been like if the United States of America had never been created by the brave and insightful men and women of our past? It would have been far different and that is a sure thing. Paul wrote in his letter to the Romans about how that the "creature" would be delivered from its bondage to corruption by being born anew into the glorious liberty of the children of God. What this requires of course is faith in Christ and without it this form of liberty will never occur. What the "creature" (the created man) needs is deliverance from his own emptiness of heart and soul and mind. He was corrupted by sin which originated with Adam but has continued with his descendants since the first sin was committed. We, through sin, have not helped our cause one whit nor have we improved our standing with 25 God. We want to be "delivered" but we want to be delivered by our own means and not by the means provided to us by God in the Person of His Son, Jesus Christ. We should have learned by this time that for all of the efforts on our part to return ourselves to the original condition and status of Adam, we cannot. We have attempted to re-create Eden and have failed miserably in our attempts. No man, no person, can do what God alone has reserved unto Himself to do. It is interesting to note that even as I write these words, Egypt is once again in a state of chaos and turmoil. In Syria there is much the same thing and we can see it again in Turkey. What is all of this unrest about? We can even see some of these undercurrents right here in our own country. The reason for it is that what we expect from our national leaders is impossible for them to do. They cannot re-create Eden nor can they bring liberation to the human soul. The best they can do is to put together a poor replica which has a few minor semblances of it. In the words of Julia Childes, "Only God can make a peach". Be encouraged, heaven (God's true heaven) is coming to us and for us. God bless and go and have a great day. Provided by Pastor Paul A. Kirby Church of God • 3939 S. Emerson Ave. Samantha Ayres takes a trip that carries into her collegiate plans AROUND TOWN Lutheran High School Senior Samantha Ayres spent seven weeks in Leon, Spain this summer as part of Indiana University’s Honors Program in Foreign Language. The application process to get into this highly competitive program required testing, recommendations, a record of academic achievement and a personal interview. Sami stayed with a host family and attended classes in Spanish culture, grammar, literature and conversation taught by IU faculty. The trip was transformational for Sami, not only in the advancement in her Spanish language skills, but in the relationships she developed with her host family and fellow Hoosier students. These relationships remain strong and the students recently held a reunion of sorts, enjoying a day at Cedar Point in August. Sami is currently making application to colleges including Indiana University, Georgetown, and Macalester where she plans on majoring in International Business and minoring in Spanish. She plans to take full advantage of student abroad programs, given her great experience with this trip. She is serving as President of the Student Council, manager of the Volleyball team and participates in band and choir. She is also a Student Admissions Ambassador. Sami is the daughter of William and Linda Ayres of Indianapolis. From left, Haydon Case, Grant Slater, Hunter Slater, Nate Weems and Landon Case. The girl is Grace Bowling. Greenwood Christian Academy Conference champs in Cross Country and Volleyball AROUND TOWN Boys Varsity Cross Country and 7th/8th grade Volleyball both won their conference meets with 4 runners named All-Conference.

The high school runners, coached by Joe Slater, ran the 3.1 mile course on International’s campus on Sept. 26. Sophomore Hunter Slater took 2nd place and received All-Conference. Brothers Landon (Jr) and Haydon(Fr) Case took 5th and 6th place, respectively, also receiving All Conference. GCA’s one and only female runner, Grace Bowling (Jr) also won AllConference by placing 2nd in the girls’ race.
