n our cover this month are the beautiful dancers from Center Stage Dance Studio. From left to right they are Maddie Frazine, Bella Henson, Maddie Davis, Alli Floyd, McCall Moore and they flank, Karah Brayboy. These six young ladies reprent the many dancers who are part of the Center Stage family.

The Beginning Lisa Hill always knew she would dedicate her life to working with children. She thought about becoming a social worker or therapist but owning Center Stage Dance Studio gives her the best of both worlds; she can teach dance and make a difference to every child who is part of the Center Stage family. Hill’s main objective for her students is to be taught, nurtured, mentored and happy. At the end of the day, it’s all about the kids.

The Generations Center Stage is about family for Hill - her own family and her dance families. She shared her passion for dance with the

8 • August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

two nieces she has raised, and the children she has adopted. She taught them to dance and now they are teaching their children. This coming year, Hill will bring her just graduated daughter Courtney in as an associate teacher. This will be the third generation of teachers in the family. In ten years Hill hopes that her two younger daughters, Hannah and Sarah will be teaching a whole new group of center stage dancers. Having her family in the studio is a true blessing, but for Hill, the best gift is when her former students bring their own children to Center Stage. The Center Stage Studio is truly a multi-generational endeavor.

The Commitment Hill is dedicated to making Center Stage the best school it can possibly be. The studio maintains a high quality of instruction and is proud of its outstanding reputation for excellence and level of instruction. As a dance teacher and educator Hill takes the responsibility of teaching her students very seriously. “I am committed to providing as much value as possible to students and their families. I want my

students to learn to dance, but more importantly, I want to instill in them the values that I hold dear; hard work, dedication, teamwork, and kindness to others.” “As a single parent, I know what dedication and hard work involves”, said Hill. “By example, I can show them that hard work and dedication pays off. These are the qualities that I show to my children and students.” Center stage is committed to providing a positive dance education experience. Being in a dance school creates memories that last a life time. Hill wants those memories to be wonderful. Hill is committed to creating a legacy for her students and for her family.

Center Stage It is the combination of all these things that makes Center Stage such a success. Hill is humbled and proud to be the owner and principal instructor at Center Stage. “I am blessed that people bring their children to our school, “I have the opportunity to share the things I love the most; children and dance. I want Center Stage to be the happy place they go to each week.” One dance parent comments, “When you meet Lisa, it becomes immediately apparent that Center Stage is more than just her business. She genuinely loves her students and works tirelessly at encouraging them to be good and kind people. I could not ask for better mentors and coaches for my children than Lisa and her team.” At this time of the year, many dancers and their parents are weighing their options and considering where to take dance instructions. “In many ways all dance studios offer a very similar curriculum; tap, hip hop, jazz, ballet etc.,” Hill explained. “At Center Stage we design our classes to be age appropriate. They have structure and fun. Our instructors are approachable and experienced. We encourage our parents and students to discuss the instruction and expectations at any time. Our parents know that the dances and costumes will be age appropriate and current; suitable for all audiences to view. I am not only an instructor and owner, but I have fostered over 42 children and raised eleven more, eight of which I have adopted. I think I can safely say I have experience with children!” Another priority for Hill is making sure her classes are affordable. “In today’s economy, and as a single parent, I know how hard it is provide children with all the opportunities you want for them. By making my studio the most affordable in town, I hope to encourage families to become involved with dance.”

In-house Competition Team Center Stage has an in house competition team. Any student five and over who attends Center Stage can be a part of the team. There are no auditions required. Two or three times a year students attend a regional or national competition. This year, they attended the Rainbow National Talent Competition in Panama City Beach, Florida and won several awards. Center Stage was recognized as Top Studio, and won awards for Most Technical, Best Costume, and Teachers of the Year. Hill wants every student at Center stage to excel. Competition helps the studio remain current and vital. Student and instructors learn what’s cutting edge in the dance world. The competition team helps you to take your dance techniques a little bit further then just classes. It’s just like being on a basketball team – competition makes you better and give you something to strive for. ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 9

Meet the Instructors Center Stage is proud of the quality of its instructors. Although Hill teaches many of her own classes, she is assisted by Assistant Director Kim Dill and Lead Instructor Kristin Tracy. Instructor Ms. Stacy Stahl Brown has 30 plus years of teaching experience in many forms of dance and currently specializes in teaching Ballet and Pointe. She holds a bachelor’s degree in performing arts with an emphasis in dance. Hill is also assisted by Daniel Baine, (from Illinois) who teaches Hip Hop. Student teachers assisting with instruction this year include Megan Gibson, Dana Young and Courtney Hill Hill also brings in guest instructors, giving the Center Stage students additional opportunities to learn new skills. This year’s guest instructors will come from as far away as California, Georgia and Florida. They bring the opportunity for students to work with professional choreography and to explore different skills, and styles. “This helps to keep students interested and motivated,” Hill explained Center Stage Dance Studio is located inside Energy Fitness on New Holt Road in Paducah. “It’s a great location for our families and dancers,” Hill explained. “Parents can choose to work out while their child is dancing, or siblings can take a gym or martial arts class from the schools located in the complex. Child care is also available on site for gym members. If they wish to stay and watch their child’s class we have a private viewing room where parents can watch

through a large, ‘one way’ observation window. Our families really like all the amenities that this location has to offer.” Center Stage Dance Studio has all the amenities you would expect including spring floors, Marley dance surfaces, sound equipment, floor to ceiling mirrors, dance barres and more! Center Stage has also reached out to neighboring local communities offering classes at the Mayfield YMCA and in Benton at the Joe Creason Center. This allows families to avoid the drive time to Paducah while still taking advantage of the excellent instruction and instructors available at Center Stage. v

he smell of popcorn and hotdogs. The chatter of the team. The ‘pop’ a baseball makes when a bat hits it across the field. These have become engrained in Paducah’s rich history, right along with steamboats and Irvin Cobb.

and Confederate soldiers started games to pass the time. When the war ended, the soldiers left, but the game lived on through locals who picked it up from the troops. People in the area began to toss around the balls and play small games until clubs started to form, stirring up competition between cities.

On August 20, visitors to the McCracken County Library will delve into this history during the monthly Evenings Upstairs @ Your Library program. At 7pm, author and baseball historian Randall Morgan will discuss his book, “Paducah’s Native Baseball Team.”

Even newspapers gloated over victories and stoked the rivalries. The book quotes a newspaper article that covered a game between Paducah and Cairo, Ill., in 1884.

Published this year, the book follows local baseball history from its beginnings in the late 1800s and through the city’s time in the minor leagues. It’s a tale Morgan wants you to know.

Pro Baseball in Paducah “Paducah has a long history of pro baseball, and I realized a few years ago that a lot of people are just totally unfamiliar with it,” Morgan says. “So, I wrote the book just to tell that story.” According to Morgan’s book, baseball probably arrived in Paducah during the Civil War, when both Union

“The Paducah Eckfords beat Cairo yesterday 15-12,” it says. “The defeat sat badly on the stomachs of the Cairo crowd, but they had to take it.” People felt that passion about the game and their teams, Morgan says, because they had close ties to home. They weren’t as mobile as people today, so kept their attention on the baseball players down the road. “People were, I think, more attuned to their home area and had, maybe, more identity with it, more loyalty toward it,” he says, adding, “Their athletic teams began to symbolize their town.”

The Padukes The Paducah Baseball Association began in 1897. Teams organized in cities like Evansville, Nashville, Paducah and Terre Haute, and all faced off at Paducah’s local field at one time or another. Paducah crowds cheered for their home team, which cycled through several nicknames including the Padookys, the Paddies, the Indians, the Padukes, the Colts, the Chiefs and the Braves. One fan might shout for the Paddies while the guy next to him might cheer on the Padookys. Yet, no matter the name, the team was dearly loved.

The Kitty League In 1903, the Kentucky Illinois Tennessee League, nicknamed the “Kitty League,” formed and joined the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues.

The minor leagues had come to Paducah. The birth of the league kick started more than 50 years of professional baseball in the city. During that time, Brooks Stadium was built and small town leagues rose in popularity. Then, that popularity plummeted. “In the 1950s, people began to have other sources of entertainment available to them,” Morgan says. “For one reason or another, baseball kind of got left out.” But there’s so much more to the story. Morgan’s book describes Paducah’s baseball history in detail, covering nearly every year of play from 1897 to 1955, when the Kitty League disbanded. It talks about the people who shaped the Kitty League and influenced the local game, and it also describes the problems the league faced.

ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 13

It explains why people no longer gather at Brooks Stadium to cheer the Paddies on to victory against Terre Haute, Ind.

Meet the Author Not long ago, this intriguing tale caught the attention of McCracken County Adult Services Librarian Bobbie Wrinkle. She says she contacted Morgan when she heard about the publication of “Paducah’s Native Baseball Team,” and she scheduled him for an Evenings Upstairs event. “The photos in it were great,” she says. “The people in it were interesting, and I think it’s a good read.” Wrinkle says the presentation will include, of course, a brief history of Paducah’s baseball teams and stadiums, but Morgan will also show unique pictures and open the floor up for a question and answer session. She expects the event to succeed because of its historical subject. “People love Paducah and Kentucky history, and of course, with his new book… it’s perfect,” she says. “People, they enjoy it.” Evenings Upstairs @ Your Library events are free to the public. Those who want to learn about Paducah’s involvement in “America Favorite Pastime” can find more information online at mclib.net/evenings/.

Back-to-School Morning Makeover

any school day mornings, I feel as if I spend most of time looking for lost socks or hunting for my keys. It sometimes feels as if the main communication between the kids and I is to remind them to ‘hurry up’ and for them to tell me that they need a form signed. By the time, we head out the door for school we are often all stressed, running late and grumpy with each other. The beginning of a new school year is a great time to evaluate your morning routine and revamp certain areas to reduce stress and help your family make it out of the house on time. Take a few minutes to think about your mornings and integrate some of these simple tips to start your day.

Create a Schedule Sit down with your kids and come up with a list of all of the

16 • August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

things that need to be done from the time they wake up until the time that you need to leave the house. Explain to them what time you need to leave the house and create a schedule for each child including times for each task. Write out the schedule and hang it in a prominent place. For children who are not yet reading, use pictures to represent tasks, such as brushing teeth and putting on their shoes. If you see your kids getting off track, have them check the schedule to find out what they should be doing at that time. You can also use the kitchen timer to help keep your kids on schedule. “They can see the timer moving and they are much more aware of the amount of time that has passed,” says Rachel Rudman, mom of two. Rudman also suggests a sticker chart to encourage younger children to stay on task

by giving them a sticker for getting their morning tasks done on time.

Sleep is your best friend Nothing is going to start your day like a good nights sleep. There is more evidence than ever that children particularly teenagers, need more sleep than they usually get. Chances are that you and your children will be less grumpy and able to get out the door on time if you are rested.

Get Everything Ready the Night Before One of the best ways to save time in the morning is to get as much ready the night before as possible. Set your kids clothes or get them to pick out their outfits, including socks and shoes. “The night before, program your coffee maker to start

brewing 10 min before you are ready to drink it,” says Patricia John, Professional Organizer. Another way to save time is get out breakfast bowls, spoons and glasses. You can even set your families favorite cereals out on the table. Put all homework and permission slips into their backpacks and put all backpacks in a specific spot. Johns also recommends putting your own belongings, such as your keys and cell phone, in the same place so that you can easily pick them up on the way out the door. You can also make lunches the night before and have them ready in the refrigerator. If you’re worried that sandwiches make get soggy and want to wait until the morning, John suggests writing

ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 17

out a lunch menu for the entire week to help make packing lunches faster.

Give Your Kids Responsibility Look at your schedule and see what tasks your kids can realistically be responsible for completing independently. Tanya Peila, whose son is in Kindergarten, got him an alarm clock so he can wake himself up in the morning. She puts all of his clothes for the day in one place, and he gets dressed by himself.

Once they are in 1st grade most children can be responsible for getting groomed and dressed. You can have older children pack their own lunches which is a great way to teach them about a healthy diet. But be sure to provide guidelines for what they should include or not include. Its also a good idea to assign your kids some of the chores that need to be done in the morning, such as feeding pets or turning off the lights in the house.

Spend Quality Time Together Try to spend at least a few minutes of quality time with your kids in the morning. Reconnecting with each other will start your kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day with them feeling loved and important. Especially on mornings where time is short, take a few minutes sit together while eating breakfast and make a point of talking with your kids. If you have a few extra minutes, read a chapter from a book together or talk with your kids about what they have planned for their day. Sometimes I even find time for a short board game before we head for the car. You could also get up a little earlier and take a short walk with your children. By starting the day enjoying each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s company, you will find yourself calmer and less stressed about the morning rush. After a few weeks of your new routine, sit down with your children and talk about what is working and what can be changed. By becoming a team, you can develop a morning routine that gets you out of the house on time and starts your day off on a positive note. v Jennifer Gregory is a mom of two kids and three dogs. She enjoys playing a quick game of Uno in the morning before school when she can. For fun ways to spend time with your kids, visit her blog at www.thefunparent.com.

Arts Education Street Fair

ugust means different things to different people. To children and their parents, it means back to school. Parents will be shopping for school supplies which almost always include crayons, scissors, construction paper, glue, to list a few. What are most all of those supplies used for? Art of course. What better way to foster art and all the arts in your children than to attend a Saturday event that focuses on just that! While kids will be starting to fill up classrooms, downtown Paducah is opening its arms and streets to all area children with the 3rd Annual Arts Education Street Fair. This year’s fair is shaping up to be the best yet with even more exciting activities planned.

A Springboard for All Things Art Parents often wonder how to encourage creativity in their children. One of the best ways is to take them to events and let them experience the arts in a tangible, every day setting. “The arts give kids the tools to become creative adults with the ability to adapt, problem solve, collaborate and express themselves," said April Cochran, Education Director at Market House Theatre (MHT). It might seem overly simplistic to connect great plays, novels and beautiful music with something like making a hand puppet or painting a ceramic. But an interest in painting often does start with something as simple as doodling at a young age.

Be Creative! The activities will be numerous and appropriate for multiple age groups. Including bracelet braiding, live interactive music on the Carson Center lawn, the magic of art booth, puppets, a magician with interactive illusions, make your own musical instrument, introduction to storyboarding, and interactive dance instruction. You can participate in tiedying a t-shirt, dress up in a costume photo booth, make your own sound effect in a special booth, and score ice cream from the Paducah Bank Wow Wagon! All of these activities are sounding boards for creative thought, drama, and music. A free performance of the MHT Play Time Show for pre-school and early elementary ages will be presented in addition to the hands on activity provided by all of the groups. “It’s basically a potpourri of activities,” Cochran said. “Each participating organization's booth will feature a hands-on experience for people of all ages. Even the performances will have interactive elements the improv comedy, the preschool Play Time show, the musicians nothing will be a passive experience. All of the

ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 57

organizations are working together to celebrate the arts by involving kids in that celebration." Participating organizations include the Carson Center, Yeiser Art Center, Harmony Road School of Music, Maiden Alley Cinema, River Discovery Center, Paducah School of Art and Design, The Rhythm Factory, Paducah Symphony and McCracken County Public Library. This is the third year for this event which was started in 2013 as a way for MHT to celebrate its 50th anniversary. Last year, with the additional sponsorship of both MHT and the National Quilt Museum, the event drew over 2,000 children and adults. Paducah Bank will again bring the ice cream wagon and Kirchhoffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Deli will have a kid-friendly menu available. The Market House Theatre will provide indoor space as a rain location in the case of bad weather.

Come Down and Make Art! The fair will be held on Saturday, August 22nd from 10AM to 2PM on 2nd Street in downtown Paducah on the river side of the Market House Square. The road will be closed to traffic for the event. Activities will take place on the street and the Carson Center lawn, as well

58 â&#x20AC;˘ August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

on the MHT’s main stage and studio theatre which will also be open. “This is a great opportunity for kids to come down and create and participate in arts activities and find out what’s being offered by the non-profit arts and culture organizations, and related businesses in the greater Paducah area” said MHT Executive Director Michael Cochran. This event is free and open to the public, although some of the activities may have a minimal charge for supplies. For more information contact the Market House Theatre offices at 270. 444.6828 or visit the theatre’s website at markethousetheatre.org. v

Four Rivers One Walk to Cure Diabetes

n ordinary day for eight-year-old Marina Singler is filled with school, play time, family time, bed time, and oh, checking her blood sugar 10 times per day. Marina has Type 1 diabetes and along with her parents, she’ll be walking in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), Four Rivers One Walk to Cure Diabetes.

Walking for a Cure Marina Singler was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at just three years of age. Her parents, Chris and Carrie, became involved with the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), and one of their most important events, the Four Rivers One Walk to Cure Diabetes. The Walk will be held on Saturday, August 22. On-site registration starts at 9 pm and the walk is at 11 pm. Come to the event and enjoy the kid-friendly activities including bouncy houses, snacks, and goods from various local vendors. After

the lap around Noble Park, stay around for the closing ceremony and enjoy some ice cream. The walk is to bring awareness to diabetes and is a chance for affected families to get together and trade war stories. “We help create a support system for families and the children,” explained Chris Singler, co-coordinator of this year’s walk. Past walks have attracted over a thousand participants, some coming from as far as Missouri and Indiana. They hope to raise $100,000.00 to help find a cure for this disease which affects millions of Americans.

Type 1 Currently, there isn’t a cure for Type 1 diabetes (T1D), which is a chronic, life-threatening disease. T1D is an autoimmune disease in which a person’s pancreas can no longer produce insulin, the hormone that turns food into energy. The only treatment is daily insulin injections. The medical supplies and doctor’s visits can cost more than $11,000 per year. That’s why raising money for research is so important. Marina typically has to have four to five insulin shots a day, or have an insulin pump constantly connected to her. A minor illness could put a child with diabetes in the hospital. For more information or to register for the Walk, please visit the website at walk.jdrf.org. v

The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation is the leading global organization funding Type 1 diabetes (T1D) research. JDRF acts an advocate for the advancement of research and groundbreaking therapies to improve the lives and treatment of individuals with T1D. Their goal is to achieve a world without T1D by progressively lessening the impact of T1D on people’s lives. 60 • August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

Making the Right Choice for the Right Care

ccidents and illness can happen at any stage of life, but as we age the risk for serious illness and accidents increases. Whether it’s a fall resulting in broken bones, or planned surgery such as a hip or knee replacement, recovery can be difficult. Unfortunately a heart attack or stroke can happen without warning. That’s where specialized short-term care steps in. Post-acute care facilities are designed to help you with your recovery. They can provide that much needed medical support until you are well enough to care for yourself safely, and at home. Upon discharge, your hospitalist and case manager will likely recommend a postacute care facility that best suits your condition or diagnosis. And, like you, these medical professionals only want the best for your recovery. But before you enroll in short-term care recommended by your hospital or physician, be your own advocate with these tips:

Know your options Do you know if the facility recommended by your care provider is reputable or will meet your personalized needs? When it comes to your care, it’s OK to “shop around” to find the place that’s right for you. Visit the care provider’s website and see for yourself or, if you’re able, show up in person and ask for a tour.

Get a bird’s-eye view Many post-acute and short-term therapy centers offer free tours for future patients. A “try before you buy” approach, take this time to try out state-of-the-art equipment and enjoy the amenities while you get a feel for the environment.

Plan ahead Prepare for your care before you leave the hospital. Some rehab providers even allow you to “reserve” your spot before you arrive. Also, location is everything, as physical therapy close to home is a very popular choice.

Talk about it Word of mouth works; family and friends who have had physical therapy can recommend a place that provides both quality comfort and excellent care. Online research can also help you compare reviews from previous patients to help you make the best decision. So, before you check out of the hospital and the physician discharges you, know what the next step is in your recovery. Just remember — short-term therapy is a proud and trusted option that’s proven to help people just like you turn their wellness and health goals into achievements. v ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 61

Paint Me RAD 5K Fun Run

hotography is a passion many people share. Some, however, love it with a twist: taking pictures of the inside of the body. Sounds morbid? The WKCTC Radiography Class of 2016 disagrees! That’s why they’re hosting the Paint Me RAD 5K Fun Run to help fund their study of x-rays.

Patty Buchanan, radiography program coordinator. “They can’t work a whole lot because they’re going to school full time.” But you don’t see these broke college students panicking. No sir! They’re hosting the Paint Me Rad to raise money for their exams.

Experts on X-Rays

The 5K run/walk begins at 5pm at the Anderson Building on WKCTC. A 1K Run/Walk is hosted afterwards. Buchanan told me the 1K is often very popular among parents who like to walk it with their small children.

The Radiography Program at WKCTC is a 22-month program where students learn how to take x-rays. Once they’ve completed the program, the students then have to pass a national exam in order to be qualified to work locally. Many students also take a national exam review in the spring to help them prepare. The American Registry of Radiologic Technologists examination and the Kettering Registry Review add up to $365 – that’s a huge chunk of change on a student budget! “Most students don’t have a lot of money,” explained

The Paint Me RAD 5K Fun Run

Photography is art that paints with light. The Paint Me RAD is a color run that leaves you wearing the colors of the rainbow. Every kilometer, the students douse the runners with a dyed cornstarch powder mix. Those who preregister are guaranteed a white t-shirt to help the colors show up. Water and fruit will also be provided for the runners.

“Come support the Radiography Class and have some fun!” Buchanan says. She also gave me one tip. For those not a huge fan of color, you can steer to the opposite side of the track and escape relatively color-free. But why miss out? The color just makes you that much more photograph worthy!

Register today! Dress Up and Go Wild! “I love every aspect of this run… it’s something all ages can enjoy.” said President of the Radiography Student Organization & Class of 2016 Caitlin Bradley. There’s one other thing that adds a bit of color (pun intended, sorry) to the event. “Some like to dress up in tutus or other kinds of bizarre costumes,” Buchanan explained. “It just seems to be a tradition with the color run. Our students like to be creative and make their own tutus in preparation for it.”

Pre-registration is ongoing until August 28th and costs $25, children 12 and under $15, and registration on the day of the race is $35. Ten percent of the proceeds will also benefit a local charitable organization and the WKCTC Radiography Alumni Scholarship fund. Find more information on the Paint Me RAD Fun Run or register today by visiting WKCTC’s website at westkentucky.kctcs.edu/News %20and%20Events/newsItem?id=%7bBDBD2F1C-5387-4A DF-8298-FE6514AE31C1%7d or by contacting: cbradley 0065@kctcs.edu or patty.buchanan@kctcs.edu. v ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 63

ver since I took up beekeeping in May, I have found myself learning something new almost every single day - whether by books, via my mentors, or just simply learning-by-doing. Honeybee society, behavior, and technology is incredibly complex. To help you all truly appreciate what a remarkable creature we have in the humble bee, I have compiled a list of must-know facts for anyone who might be a little “bee curious.” The more we know about these deeply important creatures, the more we can do to help preserve their lives here on Earth!

1.Bee Society is Female-Centric You of course know about the Queen bee - she is the “leader” of the colony, responsible for laying the eggs that will ensure the continuation of the hive. But what you might not know is that almost every other bee in the colony is a female, as well. All worker bees in the hive are females. They, and they alone, are responsible for building new comb, gathering nectar and pollen, making honey, raising the baby bees, keeping the hive clean, and tending to the queen. Every hive will have a handful of male bees (called drones), but their only job in life is to hang around in a tree near the hive each day, hoping a virgin queen from another colony flies by on her way to start a new colony. If they're lucky, they will find a queen to mate with, which will ultimately lead to their deaths!

64 • August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

The queen inside the drones' own hive only has to mate once in her entire life (which can span 1-3 years). This single mating allows her to lay thousands and thousands of fertile eggs. Therefore, the drones born to the hive are essentially useless to that particular hive. They don't do any work, instead preferring to laze around, eating up valuable honey stores. Each year as the weather gets colder, they're often ousted from the hive and left to freeze to death, since the queen can easily make more drones when the weather warms up again.

2.Bees Are Experts at Climate Control Long before there was central heat and air, there were bees. It's imperative that the baby bees (known as “brood”) in the hive be kept at a constant temperature (95 degrees) in order to survive. In the summer, bees create “air conditioning” within the hive by collecting water, spreading it out in the hive, and fanning their wings to evaporate the water, thus cooling the air in the hive. On very hot days, many of the bees will leave the hive and “beard” on the outside, so as to keep their body heat out of the hive. In the winter, when there is no new brood being raised, the bees cluster together and vibrate their flight muscles to create warmth. Even when it's bitterly cold outside, the hive remains a balmy 70 degrees!

3.Bees Can Make a New Queen if They Feel Like It While it's a beekeeper's hope that he or she will have a worthy queen, there's always the chance that the original queen will grow old or sick, will die in an accident, or will simply become a poor egg-layer. If the worker bees notice a decline in the hive's population or a queen who is doing poorly, they will almost underhandedly - set out to raise a new queen for the hive. They do this by choosing a baby bee (larva) who would have grown up to be a worker bee, and, instead of feeding her “bee bread” (a mixture of pollen and honey), they feed her a potion known as “royal jelly,” which is bee bread mixed with a secretion from a gland located on the head of a worker bee. The exact composition of royal jelly isn't fully understood, but when it is fed to a worker bee larva, that baby bee starts to develop into a new, fertile queen bee. If the old queen is still present when the new queen emerges, there will be a fight to the death, which the new queen almost always wins.

4.Don't Eat Banana Pudding Near a Beehive Apparently, bees despise the smell of artificial banana flavoring. This flavoring is found in things like box-mix banana pudding and various banana candies. The scent of artificial banana very closely resembles the scent of the alarm pheromone bees release when they feel their hive is being threatened. As a result, the odor of artificial banana flavoring has been known to incite great anger amongst bees. While bees are normally very peaceable, the sudden scent of the alarm pheromone can flip a switch that turns them from gentle bees into bees hell-bent on defending their hive and honey stores. Don't tempt fate. Stick to vanilla or chocolate!

ounces of honey, bees must visit approximately two million flowers. When someone finally did the math for all the hours involved in making a single jar of honey, they realized that if bees were paid minimum wage for their efforts that jar of honey would cost the consumer $182,000!

5.Honey is Hard-Won It's easy to take honey for granted when we see shelves lined with affordably priced jars and squeeze bottles of it at the supermarket. However, it would be kind of us to remember a few stunning facts and be slightly more thankful next time we drizzle the stuff into our tea or stir it into our oatmeal. For starters, each worker bee, in her entire lifespan (usually around six weeks), will produce only 1/12 of a teaspoon of honey. It's a miniscule amount, for sure, and the only way we get any honey at all is due to the fact that most healthy hives will have a population of around 30,000-40,000 bees. Even so, the work involved in making that honey is staggering. In order to produce a mere 12

It's not always easy to appreciate or dwell peacefully with an insect we know can pack a mean sting, but honeybees are so much more than those little pokers on their rumps! They keep the world fed by pollinating our crops, beautiful by pollinating our flowers, and sweet by providing us with one of nature's most perfect, wholesome, and medicinal foods. Next time you see a little honeybee buzzing around your yard, leave her to her work. Perhaps set out a shallow dish of water on a hot day or plant a patch of white clover she and her sisters can visit. Finally, try to avoid using herbicides like Round-Up or pesticides such as Sevin around your home and garden. No perfect expanse of grass is worth the life of such a valuable and downright intriguing - creature! v

Easter Seals of Western Kentucky 10 Annual Heart & Soul Art Auction th

rt can help individuals in countless ways. Art helps people express their emotions, their dreams, and their sense of self. Thanks to the art program at Easter Seals Western Kentucky, adults with disabilities can also experience the benefits of art. The 10th Annual Heart & Soul Auction celebrates the growth of the art program and the student’s accomplishments. The auction will be held at Walker Hall on September 11th from 6- 9pm.

consider their best life and help bring about the changes they need to meet that goal,” said Amy Harris, case manager and chairman of the art committee.

Unique Auction Items The Heart & Soul Art Auction finances the adult art program at Easter Seals. Many of the live auction artworks are collaborations between the adult students at Easter Seals and local and re-gional professional artists. This year’s featured artist is Easter Seals artist Ben Walter. There will also be some fun wildcard items up for auction. “The dinner that iList Western Kentucky Food Blogger Britt Allgood cooks is one of our most popular items,” says Harris. “We went in on it together one year and we were treated to an awesome Thai dinner.”

Easter Seals has been around for more than 90 years and has more than 550 service sites. Its mission is to provide exceptional services, education, outreach and advocacy that will help people living with disabilities to live, learn, work and play in our communities.

If you own a business and would like to get involved, Easter Seals is still accepting business sponsorships. Peel & Holland is this year’s presenting sponsor. Easter Seals hopes to raise $25,000 this year. “What adds to the very special ambiance of this event is that many of the artists themselves are present,” said Davenport. “They assist in showing the pieces during the auction and this allows those bidding to meet the artist and see who created the work.” The event features both a live and a silent auction as well as live music, hors d’oeuvres, and great desserts. Come in what the ladies at Easter Seals call “cocktail comfortable,” but feel free to dress up more if you like! This event is tailored toward adults and features a cash bar. Leave the kids at home and enjoy a great date night while supporting a great cause!

Art as Therapy Thanks to local artists and on-site instructors Diana Davenport and Deb Lyons, the art program was added to the Easter Seals program over 11 years ago. While working with individuals in the Adult Day Care Program, Davenport would occasionally paint with the students. She noticed the

potential of their paintings and enjoyment, which led to the creation of the art program. The art program at Easter Seals is a favorite among students; around 60 currently participate. Some of the students are not clients of Easter Seals, but have joined just to be part of the program. The program offers group classes and one-onone art sessions Monday through Friday. “We view the art as therapy,” explained Davenport. Both Lyons and Davenport have noticed that students who participate in the program began to exhibit a heightened sense of self-esteem and self-awareness. “We want to see each of the individuals reach their fullest potential. Art helps with that,” says Davenport. “It’s a way for them to express themselves and create commu-nity and inclusion through art.”

Finding Their Own Style The students at Adult Easter Seals Center work with Lyons and Davenport to figure out how to meet their art related goals. They explore various 2-D and 3-D media and discover personal pref-erences and favorite styles. Students have the opportunity to work in a variety of materials and techniques including oil, acrylic and water colors, ceramics, jewelry, mixed media, sculpture, printing and more. Every year, visiting professional

artists collaborate with the adult Easter Seals artists to create wonderful artworks, many which are part of the live auction. Sometimes the pro-fessional artists work one-on-one with the students and other times they create a piece in which many students participate. Each piece of art in both the live and silent auction reflects careful thought, creative energies and the technical skills of the individual artists. “We get to know what the student wants,” said Dav-enport. “Sometimes the students will come in with a particular idea, such as drawing an animal portrait or painting summer flowers. Some of the adult students prefer creating abstract pieces and come into the art room with their ideas already in mind.” Walker Hall is located at 229 Madison Street. Get tickets before September 4th for their resale price of $20 per person. You can purchase tickets by calling Easter Seals at 270.443.1200. Get them before September 4th for a discounted rate!

Go Ductless! New Tech Solutions to Old HVAC Problems

odern central heating and air conditioning is amazing. We stay cool despite summer heat and warm through winter cold. Our technology dehumidifies automatically, distributes conditioned air swiftly, and works at the push of a button.

Old HVAC Meets New Addition But nothing is perfect, so maybe you’re struggling with some of these HVAC imperfections: • Is there a room in your house that’s always too hot in summer or too cool in winter? • Do you live in an older home where installing modern ductwork is difficult and expensive? • Have you recently added a room to your house but found it difficult to connect to your central air unit?

74 • August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

• Are you interested in finishing your basement or attic, but worried about how much the heating and cooling will cost? You’re not alone. Many people run into these HVAC problems each year, and conventional solutions can get very expensive. Here’s a good example: Let’s say you added a new sunroom to your house. You could have a technician connect the addition to your existing system, but the price could range anywhere from reasonable to ruinous. If the room is near existing ductwork, things might work out. If your air conditioner can support the new space, things might work out. If things don’t work out, you will have to pay for new ductwork and maybe a larger A/C unit.

want better comfort. The exterior half can be placed anywhere outside your home where there’s room. Refrigerant line sets and electrical connections can run through an attic or crawlspace to connect the halves no matter how close or far apart they rest.

What About Efficiency? Conventional units are very efficient, and that’s why an initially more expensive central air conditioner will cost you less long term than relying on window air conditioners for every room in your house.

Does Modern Ductless Match Up? There’s good news on that front. A ductless mini-split air conditioner can operate at efficiencies comparable to central air units. They do this, because they have to. Ductless air conditioners and heat pumps are rated according to the same standards as centralized systems. They U.S. Department of Energy does not cut ductless air conditioners any slack when it comes to meeting domestic residential efficiency standards. If a ductless unit can’t meet the standard, you can’t buy it in America.

New Ductless Solutions Now the sunroom you built for relaxation has become an expensive headache. Fortunately, heating and air technology has not been standing still. A modern ductless system can fix many common HVAC problems without the need for labor intensive ductwork or an expensive conventional upgrade.

Ductless Mini-Split Technology What is ductless HVAC? It’s pretty much exactly how it sounds - heating and cooling that does not require ductwork to distribute conditioned air. Chances are you’re already familiar with systems like this. The good old-fashioned through-the-window air conditioner is an example, but not a great one, of ductless cooling. New manufacturing techniques and technology mean ductless is now a lot more efficient and attractive than bulky window units ever were. In the industry, the most common ductless systems are mini-split air conditioners or heat pumps. Unlike a window air conditioner, a ductless mini-split consists of an interior evaporator and an exterior condenser. The inside half can be mounted on any interior wall in any room where you

Let’s return to the homeowner who wanted to get air conditioning in their new sunroom, but didn’t want to pay for expensive ductwork or a new central A/C unit. All the homeowner has to do is contact their local heating and air company to arrange installation of a new ductless mini-split air conditioner. A good technician will have the unit up and running in only a few hours, and they aren’t spending a mountain of cash. What if the homeowner wants heating too? All they have to do is invest in a ductless mini-split heat pump. Heat pumps are like air conditioners. They can provide cool air in summer, but also reverse cycle to heat in low-temperature conditions.

Buy It Online & Save You can save even more money if you order your new ductless system from an online retailer, then arrange local installation. Direct-to-customer heating and air conditioning sales is among the fastest growing online segments. High quality technology at low prices has never been more available to the average American. In short, if you’re running into old HVAC problems, it may be v time to invest in a new ductless tech solution. ilistwesternkentucky.com August 2015 • 75

You Want to Play What?

or many parents, it’s a dream to have their child come to them and ask to play an instrument, especially a violin…a viola…a cello or a bass. For others, it’s something they never considered their child would want to try. Musical training has been shown to improve many areas of learning and cognition, and few parents are going to say “no” if a child asks for lessons and they can afford it. But, while quite a few parents may have been band members in high school, not too many parents learned a string instrument. It’s wonderful that your child has shown an interest, which you probably want to encourage, but now what? Many parents just aren’t certain how to buy a stringed instrument, or don’t even know what to ask. Here are a few basics on purchasing a quality instrument for your budding musician.

76 • August 2015 ilistwesternkentucky.com

Size Sizing a violin to fit your student is the most important first step. Unlike brass and wind instruments, string instruments come in multiple sizes. A music store employee should never just eyeball the student, and assume they know the size. Sizes are also not determined by age alone. Fractions of an inch make a difference in sizing! There are nine fractional sizes from the tiniest 1/32 to fit babies to 4/4 to fit adults. Your string instrument expert should measure carefully to fit the student to the correct instrument. Don’t be tempted to use an instrument which is even just a little too large. Having to hold an instrument up which is too large can hurt a student, making their fingers stretch too far, or be too heavy. It is always better to play on an instrument

too small than too large. You will hear them practice more if they have the right fit.

Rent or Purchase? Rent: Rent allows for a low stress trial period with less of a financial commitment. Little ones also grow out of the sizes and into a new size every year or two. The rental program should allow you to rent for only as long as you wish, give a good percentage of the amount of rental you pay toward purchasing an instrument or be a rent-to-own program. There should be a maintenance agreement of some sort and there should be free size exchanges if the need arises. (For instance, Symphony Supply credits the renter with a full payment up to 24 months, allows for free size exchanges and includes the insurance in the rental price.) If the instruments are high quality, you like the rental program and you can exchange sizes, it might make sense to rent.

Purchase: You might want to purchase if you know the student is going to stick with the class, or if you want to keep their very first instrument. Many students purchase if they want an even higher quality instrument than offered in rentals.

Quality

Outfit

Even if the student is a beginner, and some might say especially if you are renting/buying for a beginner, you want to get the best sounding, best set-up instrument you can afford. The better the instrument, the easier it is to play. There is an enormous range of prices of string instruments on the market today. One might find a “violin shaped object” in an outfit on the internet for less than $50! But will a violin will be worth much if it is being shipped from China (most likely) and the total cost includes the instrument, the case, the bow, the strings and rosin. You don’t want that! When it comes to an instrument your student will be playing every day, (you DO want them to play every day, don’t you?), expect to pay more for quality.

An outfit includes the instrument, case, bow and usually rosin. Most student instruments come as outfits although with stepup instruments you can chose the bow and case you prefer.

Quality instruments have good components and are welladjusted in order to have good sound and stay in tune. The pegs need to be ebony or rosewood, adjusted to turn easily without slipping. The bridge needs to be a hard maple, fitted to be the correct height, correct arch and correct string width for ease of crossing strings. The soundpost, the little inner dowel, must be high quality wood and be set in just the correct spot inside the violin so that the sound sings. The purfling, or the two black bands which run along the edge of the top and back should be inserted into the top, not painted on. The varnish should be durable but not cheap lacquer. That affects the playability and sound.

Accessories All students should have a soft cloth to clean the instrument and bow each time after playing. Music stands are important for proper position if students are playing from music. All string players need rosin for their bow. A violin or viola student will most likely need a shoulder rest or a dense sponge for smaller instruments to help stabilize the instrument on the shoulder. A cello or bass student will need a rock stop, which is a rubber-bottomed disc that stabilizes the instrument on slippery floors. More advanced students might need a mute, a humidifier, a tuner and a metronome. Hopefully after reading this you’ll be feeling a bit more confident about this type of purchase. Remember to find a store that has trained string musicians who can properly fit your child with the right instrument for their age, skill and interest. Make sure they have rental and size exchange programs. And then remember the three P’s, practice, patience and perseverance – or maybe that was practice, practice and practice! v

e all want to do our best to provide safe, healthy, affordable food for our families, and with all of the information coming our way on television, from our friends, and especially online, it’s hard to know what to believe.

Fortunately, there’s CommonGround, a group of volunteer farm women who take the time to answer your questions about how food is really raised, whether your question is about chemicals, antibiotics in meat, hormones in milk, or the great debate about conventional vs. genetically modified crops. These women are just like you – they want the best for their families, too. They’re in the unique position to see on a daily basis how food is grown and raised. They’re opening their barn doors, both physically and figuratively, to let you see what’s really going on in the food supply. They milk cows, they plant and harvest soybeans, corn, wheat and other row crops. They raise beef, pork, and poultry for a living. And they have committed to taking the time to answer your questions on a variety of topics: antibiotics, food prices, animal welfare, hormones, local vs. organic, food safety, GMOs, family farms and much more. Visit findourcomonground.com to meet volunteer farmers from our state, and feel free to join the conversation on our blog.
