Any other 12-year-old boy might have
just stood and watched as the neighbor's
house was on fire. But Brett Scrogham saw
a chance to help and got involved. His decision became life changing for many.
Brett was walking his little sister across
the street to her piano lesson when he noticed Johnson County Sherriff deputies looking into his neighbor's windows. The officers
said a burglar alarm was going off and there
appeared to be smoke in the house. Quickly,
Brett volunteered the garage door code so
the officers and the accompanying firefighters could get inside. He also alerted them to
the fact that two 75-pound Bernese Mountain dogs were in the house as well as two
cats. From his knowledge of the dogs' behavior he suggested they might be upstairs
hiding. Moses and Elijah were found under a
bed upstairs and one of the cats, Ginger, was
also rescued. The second cat, Bridget, true
to the nature of cats, reappeared on her own
two hours later.
Then Brett enlisted the help of his friends,
Ian Rowe and Jackson, Benjamin and Collin Werner, to take the two big dogs over to
Brett's house. It took all the boys to get them
there because they had been trained to an invisible fence in their own yard. It took two
or three firemen to help get them across the
line by removing their collars, lifting them,
and dragging them. Brett said their throats
were so smoke-filled that their barks sounded like human screams.
When the homeowner Robyn Collier arrived, she was shocked to see emergency vehicles surrounding her house. The firefighters were quick to assure her that her dogs
were safe and the fire was out. She was escorted into the house by firefighters where
she surveyed the scene. The house suffered
minimal actual fire damage; the cabinets and
wall surrounding the stove were charred and
a glass container near the stove had exploded, sending plastic hand utensils dripping
down the stove. Smoke damage filled the
rest of the house, blackening walls, draperies and every surface. The fire had apparently started on the electric stove but it is not
clear how that happened. By the time the
firefighters got into the house, the fire had
extinguished itself.
Robyn, a yoga instructor, community volunteer and foster mother, notified authorities about Brett's courage in the face of danger and his willingness to get involved to
help a neighbor. He was recently honored
with a letter of appreciation from Doug Cox,

sheriff of Johnson County and Jeremy Pell,
chief of White River Township Fire Department. Part of that letter read, "Without his
awareness and willingness to help, it is very
possible Brett's neighbors could have suffered a heart wrenching loss of both their
home and pets." Following the presentation
ceremony, Brett and his three sisters, Audrey, Elise, and Claire were treated to a tour
of the fire station.
Robyn said, "I think when a young person
does something above and beyond what is
expected of them, they should be recognized
for it. Brett is certainly a hero. Not only did
he save my dogs but he gave me great peace
of mind knowing they were okay. I have a
heart condition that could have affected
me badly with all that stress, but Brett was
right there, taking care of everything. I am
so grateful and so impressed."
"Oh, I didn't really do all that much,
"Brett said. "Nothing that anybody else
wouldn't have done if they had been there."
Robyn disagreed.
Brett is the son of Ryan and Charmaine
Scrogham. He is home schooled and is just
finishing the sixth grade.

READER'S WRITES
Q: What does your father mean to you?
"He means everything to me.
Not just through the support
he provides all four of us kids
in a variety of ways, but most
importantly mostly the love
he has given us. It is unconditional. We all know that and we
couldn’t appreciate him more."
"My dad and I mountain bike
together. He is a mountain bike
coach, and he is always at the
finish line waiting for me. He
is always excited for me, even
when I’m not excited. He has
always been there for me and
he is my hero."
Hannah Dale of Homecroft
"My father means the world to
me. He is my best friend and
a huge role model for my life.
I’ve grown up looking up to
him and he has taught me so
many things. He means more
to me than almost anybody in
my life."
Corri Lewis of Franklin Township
"My father is my hero. He has
always looked out for me and
he has done so much to provide for our family. He does
everything he can to make us
happy and make sure we are
living the best lives that we
can. He is a good person to look up to."

~ Duane Langreck
Southport’s Flag Retirement
Ceremony demonstrated pride
and respect for the country
I want to thank all of you who either participated or attended (the June 14) Flag Retirement Ceremony. It was around 9:30 p.m.
when the last of the flags were gone when
I started to put the fire out. I then got help
from Mother Nature and got soaked but it
felt great.
A special thanks to Roger Harris, Larry
Tunget, Steve Engle, Karen McAndrews and
Linda McClure for being part of the armed
forces color guard. And a very special thanks
to Ken Winslow who arranges for all the
guests who participate, the whole flag committee and to Marylynne Winslow for the
programs. Tom Quinn and Mayor Jesse Testruth for setting up the sound system... Rob
and Kyle for helping me set up the bleach-
ers and wood pile. Joan Miller for your introduction and I got a call from Walmart; they
have an opening for you. The boy scouts and
girl scouts. A special thanks to our magnificent police chief and all his officers.
I am not going to apologize for getting
choked up a few times. I take this ceremony
very seriously and I would start thinking of
my dad while reading so I couldn’t help it.
It is very impressive to stand behind the fire
when each of you retires your flag. I saw a
lot of pride and respect for our flag and our
country. I am very proud to be a part of this
ceremony and bring this community service
to the City of Southport.

We have had a bad week in our city, but
that doesn’t mean we are a bad city. As you
can visually see much improvement has been
made in our city and there is much more to
come. The rash of residential break-ins that
occurred last week are not typical. These
types of crimes run in stages and fortunately for us, our police department responded
appropriately and have arrested at least two
people who may be tied to these crimes.
The use of deadly force by our local police
department to mitigate an incident was very
unfortunate for both our police, the gentleman involved and those who resided in the
neighborhood. We won’t know all of the perimeters until the investigation is complete.
My thoughts go out to the gentleman involved, his family and our local police department. Please keep in mind that this isn’t
a crime. It was an action taken to possibly
prevent other public safety emergencies.
The Walmart matter is very unfortunate
and I believe it has put the city and all of us in
a very poor light. Walmart has presented us
issues with public safety as a city since their
doors first opened and continue as this letter
was prepared. Sometimes we are placed in
a bad light by situations that are out of our
control and by people that have no association with our city other than they came in to
our city to conduct their business.
We all can be victims of crime at any time
so all of us must remain vigilant and pay attention to what is going on around us. We
aren’t like we were 20 years ago but neither
is any city as society has certainly changed. If
you see something, say something.

OUR VIEW
HUMOR
For all the
fathers out there
Top ten observations
from my visit to the
new craft beer place
June is a celebrated month in nearly every
culture around the globe. Here in the United States, we primarily celebrate Flag Day
(June 14 – may our star-spangled banner yet
wave!) and the First Day of Summer (June
21). This year, however, fathers get to share
their day in the sun with, well, the sun!
June 21, otherwise known as the summer solstice, marks the “longest” day of the
year—that is, in the northern hemisphere,
the sun will rise at its earliest and set at its
latest. So if you’re looking to make the most
of this Father’s Day with dad, you’ve got
roughly 14 hours and 55 minutes of daylight
to do so. No pressure!

OK, who needs

They just continue to rub all our faces in

Trust us, the excuse is el-perfecto, too! The

Justice, in representation of the IRS, say the
emails won’t be shared because the service
is making sure that none of them is a duplicate. Yes, of course, we buy that lock, stock

stupid pills, and everyone should demand
that his or her congressional representatives

Traveling ghosts?
HAUNTS & JAUNTS
By Rick Hinton
Do spirits have the ability to travel wherever they like? It’s the million-dollar question, and one that paranormal investigators
will run into time and time again. It’s also
a question having significant ramifications
when an investigator reveals their findings
to an anxious client.
First, there needs to be an interpretation
of a “ghost” and a “spirit.” My personal belief
has always been that a “ghost” is a playback
activity known as a residual haunting. It’s
a consistent cycle of repetition… a looping
film that never changes – something viewed,
but not interacted with. Imagine holding a
conversation with your television. The actors
move along like your not there—because
you’re not. They don’t see you because it’s a
moment in time and their image is captured.
It’s an energy thing that in the paranormal
realm can’t quite be explained, but often an
important facet in a haunting. Needless to
say, residual occurrences don’t involve any
kind of travel.
“Spirits” are a different animal and subject
to interpretation, yet appear to be capable
of interaction and intelligence. They are the
things that will mess with you in the night

Why would a spirit choose
to move about?
•Perhaps they get bored and need a
change of scenery.
•They are ‘tied’ to families moving from
a location, causing them to hitch a ride.
(Endorsing the theory that it’s not a location that is haunted, but rather people)
•A particular person intrigues them
enough to develop a binding relationship.
Consequently when that person leaves, so
does the spirit.
•They have an agenda that promotes
movement from place to place. (Usually
tied in with unresolved issues)
•Visitations to relatives or significant others at the moment of their physical death.
These are areas of thought and consid-

Why would a spirit remain in the same
location year after year?
•They don’t realize they can move on.
•They don’t want to move on (denoting
freewill) because of either a particular attraction to a physical location; attraction
to particular people; or unresolved issues
related to their death.

Café Nonna offers authentic Italian
gelato in Fountain Square
Submitted by Mario Morone
Authentic Italian gelato is available in the Fountain Square area at Café Nonna, located at 629
Virginia Ave. in the Holy Rosary neighborhood on Indianapolis’ Cultural Trail.
“Gelato is the Italian word for ice cream,” said Rose Marie Bayt. She is the daughter of David and
Rosemary Page. He has been a lifelong Indianapolis restaurateur. “It has less butter fat and less air
than ice cream, so the flavor is more intense. When tasting ice cream, you taste the ice crystals,
but when tasting gelato, the flavors are more intense since there is less butter fat. With ice cream,
they whip a lot of ice into it that makes it denser whereas gelato is softer. Gelato has 50 percent less
fat and 50 percent less calories than ice cream, resulting in a creamier and softer texture. We have
a special gelato machine imported from Italy, which incorporates as little air as possible. We will
also be serving Italian sausage sandwiches with peppers and home-made baked ham sandwiches.”
Page’s frequent journeys to the land of his ancestors inspired him. “This has been my father’s
dream for years ever since he took many trips to Italy. He wanted to open his own gelato shop.
My father has worked in the food industry all of his life. I remember standing on a milk carton in
his restaurant washing dishes as a little girl. My sister, Mary Ann Sullivan, now owns and operates Primo Banquet Hall & Conference Center that he worked at for many years. My brother Paul,
sisters Mary Ann and Annette and my husband Jack have worked diligently with my dad to open
Café Nonna. Their 16 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren chose the name during Sunday
dinner. He always wanted to open a gelato shop,” Ms. Bayt added.
Café Nonna’s hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Wednesday and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Thursday through Sunday. Menu inquiries can be answered at (317) 986-6940.
Neighborhood families of Italian lineage are remembered in the shop.
“Pictures of the grandmothers who lived around Holy Rosary are found on the walls of Café
Nonna. We thought that we would pay tribute to them. When my father was young, his mother
passed away, but they helped raise him and looked out for him, having a lasting influence on his
life,” she noted.
Page’s relatives live in Italy’s Reggio di Calabria region of Italy, located on the Mediterranean
Peninsula’s boot. His wife Rosemary’s relatives are from Sicily’s Termini Imerese area, south of its
capital, Palermo.

on your air conditioner is free of debris. Cottonwood is a big thing this time of year,” said
Huser.
Huser also stressed the importance of
keeping a consistent temperature in your
home or office.
“Don’t fluctuate your thermostat up and
down. It is hard on the unit and it is harder
to maintain a constant temperature. I recommend keeping it at 72 or 74 or whatever
you are comfortable,” said Huser.
Maintaining your plants and greenery is
important in summer. Bill Heidenreich of
Heidenreich Greenhouse said it is not too
late to plant.
“People think it is always just in May. That
is just the popular time, but you can plant
all the way up until July if you can find places to purchase plants. We will have a variety
of plants at our greenhouse until the end of
June,” he said.
Heidenreich stressed the importance of
maintaining plants through the summer
months including watering, removing dead
heads on your flowers so that the new ones
can grow, and fertilizing.
“You have to fertilise this stuff. You can’t
just use just water in the summer. They
won’t perform well. You can buy water solubles, mix them in a watering can or an old
milk jug and according to the label and apply
them,” said Heidenreich.
Dan Hornaday of Flooring by Stretch Rite
said that in the summer months many homeowners choose to install hard surface floors.
“A lot of people are making the switch to
hard surface, whether it be laminate or hardwood or ceramic tile. We are finding that
hard surface is more popular during the
warmer weather,” said Hornaday.
HCFC-22, also known as R-22, has been
the most widely used refrigerant for residential air-conditioning systems for more than
four decades. The United States Environmental Protection Agency is now phasing
out this refrigerant.
“You won’t be able to get it in about three
more years and any new system should go
with the new refrigerant. It has already gotten crazy expensive. So homeowners should
think about changing the unit. It will pay for
itself,” said Joe Annee of Annee Matry Heating and Cooling.
Annee said servicing should not be neglected. Also, filters should be changed every three months.
“It is important to have your air conditioning unit clean because it works more efficiently and to cools better. It is important to
have your refrigerant checked for the same
reason. It cools better and is more efficient,”
said Annee.
Kelly Bowling of Indy Rents said that in
addition to equipment to maintain your
home and property, they have many items
available for outdoor events if you plan to
have friends and family over this summer.
“We also have tents, tables and chairs for
outdoor events and many concession machines. Slushy and snow cone machines are
really popular this time of year,” said Bowling.
Don Burns of Fred and Sons said homeowners should shorten or remove low hanging branches near the roof or the house to
prevent damage. Summer is a good time
for this task. Also, he said property owners should keep an eye on any ash trees as
the emerald ash borer has been devastating
these trees. One sign is “D” shaped holes in
these trees.
“If it is a big mature tree, it is not a bad
idea to treat it if you catch it early. Otherwise it may not be worth the expense if it is
already showing signs of the ash borer,” said
Burns.

E3 2015 showcases future of gaming entertainment
The Electronic Entertainment Expo (colloquially known as E3) is taking place from June 16 - 18 at
the Los Angeles Convention Center and nearly 50,000 attendees from all over the world have gathered to see what the major gaming companies have to offer consumers in the coming years. Square
Enix stole the show early by announcing a remastering of arguably the company’s most iconic video game, Final Fantasy VII. Blizzard announced new heroes for its latest free-to-play game, Heroes
of the Storm. And Microsoft announced that the Xbox One would soon be backwards compatible
with most titles from the Xbox 360. Bethesda, another popular company in the gaming industry
responsible for Bioshock and the Elder Scrolls games, announced a long-anticipated Fallout 4, including a free app (“Fallout Shelter” available on the iOs app store). – Kotaku.com
AT&T will be fined for throttling speeds
The Federal Communications Commission recently announced plans to fine AT&T a total of $100
million for misrepresenting to customers the precise nature of its “unlimited” data plans, since the
carrier allegedly “severely” slowed down data speeds for customers with the aforementioned plans.
The FCC may also look into customer complaints regarding longterm contracts and the possibility of abandoning the contracts
without incurring any repercussions. – usatoday.com
Foo Fighters’ Grohl breaks
leg, cancels tour
While playing a show in Sweden on June 12, Dave Grohl suffered a broken fibula after falling off stage. The show didn’t
end there, however. Despite the injury, Grohl continued to
play the remainder of the set, albeit sitting down. “It kills me
to say it… the doctors have told us to cancel shows. I'm really
so sorry, guys. You know I hate to do it, but I'm afraid it's just
not physically possible for me at the moment,” he wrote on the
Foo Fighters’ website. One of the appearances cancelled due
to his injuries was the United Kingdom’s Glastonbury Festival.
Whether or not the band will be able to perform for their American
tour, planned to begin July 4 and run through October, remains to
be seen. – CNN Entertainment

Jurassic World… a massively
entertaining time
MOVIE REVIEW
By Adam Staten
As the temperature and humidity both
start to rise dramatically, signs that summer
is almost here are becoming more evident
by the day. While the official start of summer may still be a few weeks away, the summer movie season is already off
and running. Some of the most
highly anticipated films of the
entire year have already hit big
screen. The second Avengers
movie, San Andreas, Mad Max:
Fury Road, and Melissa McCarthy’s Spy are all already playing
at theater near you. This weekend provided us with yet another
blockbuster, Jurassic World starring Chris Pratt.
Unlike other films that come out decades
after the original, Jurassic World is not a reboot. It follows events first laid out in the
original Jurassic Park film 22 years later,
since it did, in fact, first hit theaters 22 years
ago.
Instead of exploring uncharted lands with
the mammoth prehistoric creatures like in
the 1993 film, Jurassic Park is now a Disney
World-type amusement park where tourists
can come and gawk at the immense beasts.
And thanks to the park’s workaholic general manager, Claire, Jurassic Park runs like a
well-oiled machine.
But like all parks, new attractions must be
built in order to keep the public interested
and this is where things go badly.
Scientists at the park have engineered a
new hybrid dinosaur complete with an intelligence and ability level unmatched by any
creature before it. Due to an unfortunate
mishap, the genetically modified beast gets
loose and wreaks havoc, putting thousands
of lives in danger.
Once again, Mr. Pratt shows here why he
is one of the most sought-after actors of today. His loads of charisma combined with his wit and humor
help to overcome the stiff and
often overwhelmed female lead,
Bryce Dallas Howard. More
times than not, she looks out of
place and lost. Things become
instantly and immensely better
once Pratt appears on screen
approximately 20 minutes into
the film.
The well-written script and tight, focused
direction also help keep the film entertaining and going, never lagging on one scene
too long. The only negative involves a loose
end involving the parents of the two brothers in the film. The audience is never given a
clear indication of what does or doesn’t happen.
If you’re looking for a film with plenty of
action and thrills that will grab your attention and never let go, Jurassic Park is for you.
It’s the best blockbuster of the summer, so
far. 3.5 out of 5.

It is a common misperception that cats
don’t need to go to the vet as often as do
dogs. This misperception exists for many
reasons including:
1. House cats don’t go outside so they do
not need vaccinations. This is not necessarily true. Being a house cat does not mean a
cat cannot be exposed to potentially fatal
diseases such as Feline Leukemia or Feline
Immunodefiency virus.
2. Cats don’t get sick as often as dogs.
Cats are no healthier than are dogs. Cats are,
however, masters at hiding disease and not
showing symptoms. Often times by the time
a cat acts truly sick the disease or sickness
has progressed into an advanced stage. This
is why it is so important to have an annual
blood screening to determine the health of
your cat.
3. Cats are self-sufficient and don’t need
a lot of care. This is definitely a misperception. It may be true that cats use litter boxes
and don’t need to be let outside. However,
cats do require attention from owners, play
time, petting, grooming, regular feeding,
etc. When cats do not receive an appropriate amount of attention it often manifests in
behavioral issues such as improper elimination outside of the litter box and other behavioral issues.
4. Cats are harder to take in a car or into
the vet’s office. Cats definitely are creatures
of habit and don’t like going in the car or going into a vet’s office. However, strides have
been made in how cats are handled in a vet’s
office. We now work very hard at making
visits for cats as stress-free as possible. We
often use spray pheromones that help calm
cats and other measures that make their
visits less stressful for both the cat and cat
owner.
In summary, it is very important that your
cats receive annual examinations and peri-
odic lab work. There is a high incidence of
kidney disease, thyroid disease, and diabetes
in cats. If these issues are caught early (before your cat shows outward symptoms) the
issues are treated more successfully and the
life of your cat is extended.
Please call us for more information on
how to bring your cat into the office and our
newer procedures for a stress free visit for
your cat.

Pet health insurance worth it?
Many pet owners understand the risks and responsibility of animal care and trips to the vet
can be quite costly. This poses the question,
is pet health insurance worth it? Vets suggest
getting insurance early, before the animal
turns one—but be wary of any and all stipulations in any contract you may sign.

ESSAY
"Father's Day"
On behalf of The Southside Times staff, I’d like to once again express our sincerest thanks
for all of the talented students who submitted their Father’s Day essays. The response and
feedback we’ve received has been phenomenal, especially after celebrating Mother’s Day
earlier this year. We have truly been moved by everyone’s words and hope that you all will
share your thoughts with dad on his special day.
Heartfelt thanks also go out to all the dedicated teachers of our Southside schools for
helping facilitate this contest and encouraging submissions. Your dedication to educating
the youth in our communities is inspiring as it is admirable.
And finally, congratulations to Nathan Hall for submitting the winning essay. Congratulations also to runners up Maduhi Chawngthu and Laura Tucker.
Happy Father’s Day to all you dads out there – please enjoy.

If we could spend a special day together, we would go and
play laser tag with fake laser guns. Then we would go eat ice
cream with sprinkles on top. We could also eat some snacks
like sugar cookies and gummy bears. After our snacks, we
will go to the theater. Finally, it would be time for lunch – a
bowl of noodles. We could burn our energy somewhere fun
like the park or swimming pool. Then, I’d buy you a sports car.
We could take it to the aquarium and the zoo. We could play
games and fly kites with pictures on them. Then, we’ll have a
contest. Our supper would be a buffet. After we eat, we’ll go
back home and fall asleep to a movie like Free Willy on a big
TV. But, a father is better than all the money in the world!

80 percent of Americans are
magnesium deficient
NUTRITION
By Chef Wendell Fowler
In an over-fed, undernourished world,
here’s a bit of tasty news. Addressing just
one simple nutrient deficiency can prevent
a long list of modern society’s present-day
diseases while vastly improving the quality
of your life.
You never hear magnesium mention in
the same breath as vitamin C, A, E, and calcium, however magnesium is responsible
for over 300 biochemical reactions in your
temple. The role of magnesium in preventing heart disease and kidney stones is most
widely accepted. Individuals who die suddenly of heart attacks have been shown to
have very low levels of magnesium in their
bodies.
Alas, due to overzealous processing of
modern food and mono-crop farming, the
majority of Americans are deficient in dietary magnesium-a deficiency that may be
responsible for more diseases than any other
nutrient. If you’re addicted to the traditional Western diet, this deficiency will continue unless you eat more plant food or at least
take a supplement.
Generally, if you are older, consume lots
of refined white flour products or if you have
high blood pressure, the daily dose of magnesium should be larger. Diabetics, alcoholics, the obese and those with chronic gastrointestinal issues or heart failure; and the
elderly are more likely to be low in magnesium.
Sources of magnesium are all over the grocery and farmers markets. It’s just that it’s in
plant which sources Hoosiers don’t particularly like, such as dark leafy greens, avocado,
cucumber, nuts and pumpkin seeds, whole
grains, bran, whole wheat pasta, spirulina,
shiitake, coconut meat, black tea,…and well
you get it…it’s everywhere. Untoasted sesame seed oil and tahini contain magnesium
too.
Low levels of magnesium in your temple
increase susceptibility to, or involved with
the prevention of: diabetes, heart attacks,
high blood pressure, kidney stones, cancer,
insomnia, menstrual cramping, blood clotting, immune cell activity, insulin sensitivity
and blood sugar transport, and controlling
free radical damage.
Before you start popping vitamins, please
do your research. Don’t guess. More is never better. In addition to our daily diet, Sandi
and I take 400 mg magnesium citrate daily.
Visit your local community healthy grocery,
ask what dose is best for you, then purchase
an inexpensive bottle of Magnesium Citrate
and show yourself some love. Let’s learn how
to eat all over again because as disease rates
continue to soar, it’s clearly not working. I
love leading a horse to water because occasionally I find a grateful horse.

Renters’ pockets hit harder
In April of 2015, rents (on average) were 4 percent higher than the previous year, according to a
Zillow report. It’s the quickest increase in two years and even outpaced home prices which rose
by only 3 percent. According to Svenja Gudell, senior director of economic research at Zillow,
this trend is likely to continue. “We will continue to see rental increases, and affordability will
worsen before it gets better.” Gudell also cited stagnant incomes as a source of strain for renters,
and even so, there is still a large demand for rental properties. According to Zillow’s Rent Index,
Indianapolis wasn’t hit as hard as some cities (San Francisco at 14.9 percent, for example), but
rent prices in Indy still jumped by 1.5 percent. – CNN Money
Need extra cash? ‘Flip’ Ferraris
Monaco millionaire, Pieter van Naeltwijck, primarily maintains his fortune by way of real estate,
but of late he’s taken to buying limited edition supercars as a means of investment. “If you’re
lucky enough to buy them, you can sell some of them for double the price,” he told CNN Money.
“There’s much more demand than available cars, much like Monaco real estate ... It’s a good investment.” Among his Ferrari collection, van Naeltwijck also owns an Aston Martin Vanquish Volante, two Porsches and a McLaren P1. – CNN Money

'Cache' or 'cachet?'
GRAMMAR GUY
By Jordan Fischer
Question: "Dear Grammar Guy, can you
explain the difference between 'cache'
and 'cachet?' Are they just alternate
spellings of the same word?"
Answer: Hey, I know this one! Grammar
column: Engage.
If you've ever been geocaching – a sort
of scavenger hunt involving clues and GPS
coordinates – you know what I'm about to
say: a "cache" is a storage place or a collection of items stored in a hidden or inaccessible place. Squirrels have caches. Pirates have
caches. Squirrel pirates would have caches,
but they have better things to do.
A "cachet," on the other hand, has less
to do with hiding things and much more
to do with making them distinguishable.
A "cachet" is a distinguishing mark or seal,
or, more abstractly, the state of being distinguished, respected or admired (ex. "Few
world leaders had the cachet of Nelson Mandela.").
A "cachet" can also be a flat capsule inside
which a dose of medicine is stored.
Now, you may be saying, "Fine, Grammar
Guy, I get the definition. But how do you
pronounce these words?" If you would just
have a little patience, I was getting to that.
"Cache" is pronounced like the sort of
thing you might hide inside – "cash." And,
while they're both French words, "cachet"
is the one that sounds most like its French
roots: "cash-ay." It's kind of fun to say, really.
So there we go: We learned two new
words, and how to say them, and maybe
even a bit about a new hobby. I'm talking
about squirrel pirating, of course. We can
leave the geocaching to someone else.

"And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of
heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall
be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose
on earth shall be loosed in heaven." ~ Matthew 16:19
By Paul Kirby
Christ, speaking to His disciples, tells them that
He will give them the "keys" to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever they shall bound on earth shall be that
which is bound in heaven and whatever they shall
loose on earth shall be that which is loosed in heaven. All too often this saying of Christ is misquoted to
say that Christ is giving Peter the power to open and
close these things, but He is not. Christ is always and
ever the Power of God unto the church to open and
close. The church always is responsible to God for its
actions and never is to act on its own initiative.
We must get from this the desire of Christ to share
the power of the kingdom of His Father with His
church. In Revelation we read in chapter one and
verse six that "He has made us kings and priests unto
God, His Father." It is there for all of us. It reveals the
fact that once we are saved and sanctified to God, we
are given that wonderful dunamis of God to go forth
and win the world to Christ. The exousia belongs to
God alone. The dunamis means that we have the dynamics of the kingdom of God which, to me, is equal
to the keys to the kingdom of God. We have the power to make a difference in this world.
We have the "keys", that is, the ability to open up to
the world the great glory of God and we also have the
ability to lock this truth away from the world. What
God wants to be released upon the world is His righteousness and what He wants bound is sin.
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.
