Well, it’s finally happened – some invigorating, and much-needed spring weather has arrived. And on its heels come the NCAA basketball tournament, and of course, the Kentucky Derby. With that in mind, do keep your eyes out for our Voice of Louisville Derby Magazine and join us at 8Up Elevated Drinkery & Kitchen for our official magazine launch party sponsored by Old Forester. Check out the calendar of events beginning on page 66 for all the festive details. Hope to see you there!

overcome hearing obstacles, participated in the healthcare debate of Cochlear implants and graduated from high school as his class’s salutatorian. Among other achievements, he hopes to realize his personal dream of becoming a doctor, just like the ones that helped him throughout his life, and we are lucky to help share his journey within the pages of The Voice-Tribune. While the first Saturday in May is definitely one of the most anticipated days of the year, we talk with Dana Johnson, Senior Director of Corporate Responsibility and Community Affairs at Churchill Downs, Inc. to get the low down on why you definitely won’t want to miss the Thursday night of Derby week either. The 6th Annual Taste of Derby returns to the Kentucky Exposition Center and brings with it a benefiting charity worthy of praise – Dare to Care Food Bank. With top regional chefs traveling from across the country, I can’t think of a better stage to help build awareness to the issue of hunger that strikes Kentuckiana each year. Read all about this party with a purpose on page 51.

While basketball tends to steal most of the limelight this time of year in the Bluegrass, a new sport is making waves at the national level. We are excited to bring you this week’s feature story on the young men and women of Louisville’s own GymTyme All-Stars. This year, GymTyme’s Platinum Squad will not only be participating in Champions League - an elite competition between 30 of the nation’s best cheerleading squads – but having the entire process filmed for a motion picture. Read all about just how unbelievably talented, inspiring and skilled these young athletes are, and vanish a few myths about cheerleading in the process. You will be blown away by the dedication and grit shown by these young stars.

In Taylor’s Ten, we catch up with Angel McCoughtry, the all-time leading scorer in University of Louisville basketball history, male or female, with 2,779 career points, and the #1 overall pick in the 2009 WNBA Draft. In May, the Dream will play at the KFC YUM! Center featuring McCoughtry alongside teammate Shoni Schimmel, the Cards second alltime leading scorer – and we can’t wait to welcome them both home. Mike Rutherford gives us five goals he hopes for the Cards to achieve in their bid for the NCAA men’s basketball championship, and what we can expect as UofL faces UC-Irvine in round-one. John Asher gets us prepped for Derby with his analysis of American Pharoah’s long-awaited return, and his prospects for entering Derby history. And of course, Tony Vanetti and Matt Jones will keep you on the edge of your seat with their energetic back-andforth about all the madness March will surely bring.

Speaking of inspiring, Ashlie Stevens introduces us to Lennon Radcliffe, a UofL freshman who was born with profound hearing loss. Over the last 18 years, Radcliffe has

Around town the annual Gals and Guys Hats and Ties event was held at The Turf Club at Churchill Downs and featured a phenomenal fashion show, silent auction, and cocktail party sponsored by Dress for Success Louisville. Heyman Talent, Sunny Daize, Rodeo Drive, Glasscock and Boutique Serendipity all contributed to make the show a real jaw-dropper. The Sports and Social Club at Fourth Street Live! enjoyed a visit from country singer and former “The Voice” contestant RaeLynn, who met selected area children in support of the ongoing work of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kentuckiana and their annual Bowl For Kids’ Sake effort. And The Leadership Louisville Center held the Best of Leadership Summit at The Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts that featured speakers such as best-selling author Tom Rath, Brendan Canavan, president of UPS Airlines; and Lieutenant Governor Crit Luallen, as well as executives from Brown-Forman, Humana and Yum!

to a game in an arena or stadium of any sort and you’re likely to see a number of common denominators. Fans in team colors, yelling, screaming, marching bands, a mascot or two and of course cheerleaders. Cheerleaders are as American as apple pie. A game would frankly be strange without them. But go to a gym early in the morning and you’re likely to see one of those cheerleaders lifting weights, stretching, doing push-ups and tumbling. Go to that same gym after schools have let out and you’ll likely see the same figures, spending hours on end perfecting choreographed routines that require the same amount if not more exertion and expertise, as any of the sports that cheerleaders “cheer” for on the sidelines. Cheerleading is an elite sport.

On April 2 and 4, fans of cheerleading will be able to go to cinemas nationwide and watch “Nfinity Champions League 2” the sequel to last year’s successful film which chronicled the teams that take part in the Champions League, an elite competition that gathers 30 of the nation’s best cheerleading squads. The competition takes place on March 21, but fans of the action will be able to see it two weeks later in cinemas. And while the teams and the competitions are broken down into more nuanced categories, it all comes down to the fact that one winner is eventually announced -- the winner of a competition just as fierce as any other in the sport.

This year, just as in last year’s event debut, Louisville has a representative , the GymTyme All-Stars and their Platinum squad, one of the best teams in the country that has 13 world titles to their credit. It’s a team filled with dedicated girls and boys intent on honing and perfecting their craft, a life of synchronized routines, tumbling passes, back-flips and elite gymnastics, all built around a life of trust, sacrifice and dedication.

cheering that is lodged firmly in most people’s consciousness. It’s the sport of endless dedication and countless hours, and for this GymTyme is an elite location.

For GymTyme’s Team Mom Renee Welch and her daughter Morgan, the competition is a culmination of a life spent around the sport. Morgan, now 18 and a senior in high school, has been with GymTyme since the age of 4, while Renee has had two other daughters pass through the gym. “We’re the oldest family in the gym,” explains Welch. “The all-star cheerleading is in their blood. It’s so competitive and they just loved it. GymTyme really is known for their All-Star program.” To the uninitiated, All-Star cheerleading is the sport of painstakingly choreographed routines seen at specific competitions, as opposed to simple sideline game

“We have two girls from Memphis who drive here every single weekend to practice with this team,” explains Welch. “We have kids from Southern Indiana, and eastern Kentucky, so we draw athletes from a long way away.” For the Welch family and everyone at GymTyme the competition has an added significance because the top-3 teams will win a monetary amount that they can donate to a charity of their choice. In the case of

give it up,” explains Welch, “I can’t imagine not doing it. If I didn’t have cheerleading I’d miss the bonds that I have with my team.” For Mark Robert Ellis, director of the movie that will hit cinemas next month it was an

Ellis. "Their biggest fear is not in letting down themselves when they make a mistake, but letting down their teammates. These kids have to trust each other like a quarterback has to trust his his left tackle. My daughters are both flyers, the ones who are tossed in the air, and you have to just trust your colleagues, because you’re coming down now.” “In this film you should be able to see that some of these people are world class gymnasts, and what they can pull off physically and mentally to get here, you should be able to identify with and relate to. You’re going to pull for these kids and you’re going to like the sport and have a new-found kind of respect for the kids and the sport.”

League is a chance for GymTyme to compete and win in their chosen sport. And a sport it most certainly is. “I think a lot of people don’t see the hard work that we put in,” explains Morgan Welch, who will be trying out for the UofL cheerleading team next year. “They picture sideline cheerleaders at games and that’s not what we do. We’re All-Star cheerleaders.” For Welch, cheerleading shares its time with her studies at DuPont Manual High School, where she is taking college classes. Like everyone else at GymTyme, it’s hard to juggle but easy to keep going because of the ingrained passion within. “I have a passion for it which means I cannot M A R C H 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W .

equally eye-opening experience. While he’s used to working in Hollywood on movies such as “The Dark Knight Rises,” directing the Champions League film last year was a chance to show off a sport that his own daughters have taken part in, one that he himself took for granted when he was a football player at Appalachian State. “These kids rely on each other like you can’t believe,” explains

And athletes they are. Just ask Morgan’s teammate Alex Johnson how many injuries she’s suffered in her time cheerleading since the age of 14. The number? Too many to count. “I tell people all the time, that I wish there was a different name for it,” adds Morgan Welch. “People think that we’re just school cheerleaders, but it’s basically a different sport.” And the name itself is perhaps the biggest problem for cheerleading. It implies a secondary role, the realm of meaningless pom poms bouncing up and down on the sidelines while the action on the field or court catches the crowd’s full attention. To the uninitiated, cheerleading is the simple act of yelling slogans, spelling out team names and jumping up and down frivolously. That’s certainly an aspect of cheerleading because that’s the thing that sits at the forefront of most

people’s consciousness. But real cheerleading lives and thrives in two and a half minutes of performance on a stage. Two and a half minutes of nonstop action. Every eight seconds something new happens and countless hours of blood sweat and tears have been spilled for those eight seconds that then make up two and a half minutes of athleticism, artistry and grit.

else, whether it’s beside a football field or in front of thousands of adoring fans in Los Angeles at the Nfinity Champions League competition. For Ellis, a moment of revelation came when his daughters came home one night after yet another long and gruelling practice. “I’ll never forget,” he recalls. “When my daughters came home, I just said at the dinner table one night, ‘I don’t understand, who are you cheering for?’ And my daughter at 8 years old turned to me and said, ‘We’re cheering for ourselves.’” VT

while cheerleaders may reside sometimes on the sidelines, they also live on their own stage, a whole different stage where they’re there for themselves, their teammates and no one

ometimes a little inspiration is all you need. Take these lyrics for example: “You’ll never be great without taking a chance.”

Over the 18 Lennon Radcliffe, looks and sometimes acts like a typical teenager – a lanky young years of my life, I’ve grown to man with brown hair that flops careless- be adept with compensating for ly across his forehead and occasionally into my hearing loss and utilizing my his eye. He snowboards in the winter, wake- adaptations.” boards in the summer, and splits his spare time between videogames and guitar. Yet, in his short life, Radcliffe himself has become a source of inspiration for an entire community, and hopes to continue to be one throughout his life. Radcliffe was diagnosed at birth with severe profound sensorineural bilateral hearing loss. There is no history of hearing loss in his family, so the cause of Radcliffe’s condition is unknown. “But I expressed a strong capacity for learning and [my parents and I] felt like it would be an educational asset and to enable greater oral communication,” says Radcliffe. “At age six, I was a part of the decision making and I said ‘yes.’ Without a doubt the cochlear implant gave me the gift of hearing.” Little pleasures that we take for granted, like music, became accessible to Radcliffe. He grew up in a musical household where his father played instruments for 40 years, and was happy to be able to finally pick up a guitar and actually hear the intricate differences with each string. Radcliffe thrived on picking up a new sound every day at school. “Without the gift of hearing, the world around me would not be as vibrant as I otherwise perceive it,” he said. That’s not to say though that Radcliffe’s transition with his implant was seamless: M A R C H 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

However, he overcame those difficulties, racking up a staggering list of accomplishments along the way: he graduated in the top one percent of his high school class as the salutatorian, participated in the Governor’s Scholars Program and became an ambassador of Kentucky, was a fourth-place finisher in Biotechnology for HOSA (Health Occupations Students of America) in the state of Kentucky, and became a key player on his high school varsity baseball team, without any baseball knowledge. He continued, “I plan to compete at the semi-professional level in snowboarding and wakeboarding soon. I earned a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, and have won first-place overall, as a recent black belt, in the 2013 Professional Karate Commission tournament season in the states of Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, and Ohio combined, and I have also broken concrete blocks recently.” Radcliffe also became a recipient of the Graeme Clark scholarship this year. Professor Graeme Clark is the foundation Professor of the Department of Otolaryngology at the University of Melbourne. The pioneering work of his University Department led to the first research implant “bionic ear” being “switched on” in 1978 and the first Nucleus Implant in 1982. The Cochlear Graeme Clark Scholarship is a unique award open

to Nucleus Cochlear Implant recipients, like Radcliffe, around the world. Awarded by Cochlear, this scholarship has been set up to help individuals further themselves by undertaking university studies. Radcliffe is studying biology at the University of Louisville, with hopes of eventually going on to medical school. His father is a surgical technician, which gave him an interest in medicine from an early age. “I also wanted to engage in biology and the medical profession because of the doctors that assisted in giving me the gift of hearing. They inspired me to do the same, to give back and to help others, to make the world more peaceful,” he said. When asked where else he finds inspiration his answer is simply, “The world around me.” He said, “The world has shaped me to be a good man, a man who has no intentions of becoming a quitter. The world has inspired me to be passionate, dedicated, talented, humble, and to always have good left in me when things get harder.” VT COURTESY PHOTO

ailure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.” Denis Waitley There is truly nothing like failure because it has the power to both stop and start, ambition, creativity, learning and growth. Most importantly, it has the ability to start and stop success. As an educator, I work with different types of failure everyday, not the crippling, ‘I can’t go on type,’ but more of the ‘I will keep working at it and not give up’ type. Make no mistake because there is a huge difference between the two types, especially as it relates to children. I believe that we could all agree that success is almost always preceded by failure whether it involves learning to walk or sending a rocket to the moon. Failure is a necessary and vital part of human experience. Failure can make us stronger, smarter and more efficient, but so often we treat failure with disdain and contempt. And like people, schools can also fall into this same way of thinking. In good schools, you will find teachers encouraging and challenging students and celebrating both successes and failures in their learning, while at the same time, modeling this exact same behavior in their teaching. Think about how many times we ask students to try something new, to look at it from another angle, to think outside the box, or to step outside of their comfort zone, yet many times as educators this “fear” of failure has prevented us from doing the same with our teaching. That’s right, good teachers fail. In fact, some of the best teachers I have had, and or worked with, have had some of the most epic fails. What made them great was not the failure but the exercise of learning from their failure, and the spirit of not letting failure define them or their work. I wish that I had been told as a child that failure is an inevitable part of the human experience because I had been, I probably would have had a lot less stress in my life and probably more success. I was that kid that hated to color outside of the lines, had to have all my letters and words fit neatly on the page, and worried

constantly about whether “I got it right.” I worried so much at times that I was paralyzed into inaction for fear of failing. Maybe I would have been a great musician or an award-winning scientist!

come by office to tell me about an idea they have or about something that they are working on. I love it when they tell me they have tried something and it worked beautifully, and I love it when they tell me they had a beautiful failure. Embracing failure does not mean that failure is expected, it simply means that failure will not paralyze us from trying again, and again, and again. It means that we have stopped seeing failure as something that stops us but instead see it as something that motivates and encourages us to keep trying and to ultimately be our best selves. Failure should shape us, but it should never define us because as J.M. Barrie writes, “We are all failures – at least the best of us are.” VT

Yet failure propelled me in other areas. Failure pushed me in athletics and academics to be better. It helped me understand the power of not giving up. It made me stronger emotionally and physically. It pushed me past what I thought I was even capable of, at times. And now as an educator, it helps me see the power of failure to motivate and teach. As a parent of three, I encourage the “beautiful oops” of coloring outside of the lines and compliment the effort of writing the words as opposed to the failure of staying in the lines. As the Head of School of Louisville Collegiate School, I work with almost 150 faculty and staff and almost 700 students and “getting it right” all of the time is At Republic Bank, we’re impossible; and this is why I love committed to helping our my job.

Great communities also make life easier for you.

communities become better,

Failure Should Shape Us But Not Define Us

Making the Dream, a Stitch at a Time

uits and dresses hang on the racks, ready for pickup. As with many Louisville businesses, the advent of Derby season is already hastening the pace at this tailoring and alteration business. It seems Expert Tailor has earned Louisville’s trust. In the pursuit of a Derby-worthy ensemble, folks are even bringing in their hats.

when St. Leonard’s Church sponsored their immigration through a Catholic Charities program. “Lots of nice ladies tried to take care of us when we first came,” Nuong said.

Business Profile WES KERRICK

Located at the Semonin Square shopping center, 4905 Brownsboro Road., the business has been operating since 1996. But the story of Expert Tailor began in 1978, when owners Tay and Nuong Nguyen fled their native Ca Mau, Vietnam, in the wake of a Communist takeover. “They (didn’t) give us any freedom at all,” Nuong said. “So that’s why we (left), because of freedom – and for the future of my children.” With their two-year-old daughter and their two-monthold son, the Nguyens took shelter in a Malaysian refugee camp. “We got a little bit (of) freedom there,” Nuong said.

Tay took a job on the assembly line at Bluegrass Electric Co. And Nuong, who had been a tailor in Vietnam, went to work for an upscale dress shop called Hytken’s. The Nguyens received their U.S. citizenship in 1986.

Nuong went on to work at a Stein Mart department store. The quality of her work was so good that after hours people would also bring clothes to her home for alterations. Nuong’s friends and mentors were impressed, not only with her skill as a tailor, but also with her knack for winning over customers as friends. So they encouraged her to start her own shop. At first, Nuong was nervous. She feared her English wouldn’t be good enough. But since their arrival in America, the Nguyens had been surrounded by supporting, giving people. And the supporters said: “You can do it, you can do it.” So the couple founded Expert Tailor in July 1996.

The water was dirty and the food scarce. They had no house – just a camp. But it was better than Vietnam.

And in the nearly 19 years that have followed, their secret to success has remained the same: building a relationship with people that keeps them coming back.

In November 1980, help arrived from Louisville,

“People bring me food – bring me a tomato,

bring me an apple, you know – and I give them a candy, a hug,” Nuong said. Some customers even invite them home for dinner. “We work like a family,” she said. “We’re not customer and store.” That people-centeredness also defines the Nguyens’ relationships with their four employees. In the times of the year when business slows, the couple could handle the smaller workload by themselves. But instead, they back off and give the work to their employees. “If we lay them off, or we cut a lot of their hours, then they don’t have enough money, “ Nuong said. Perhaps it’s the leaving behind of loved ones – and “a lot of memories” – that makes the Nguyens’ relationship with their customers so warm. “They care about my family in Vietnam, too,” Nuong said. With such an affectionate bunch of customers, rendering top-notch service is just a natural way to give back. “I always try [my] best to do my job, to give the customer a good look, and the best service I can,” Nuong said.

SCHNATTER, KOCH GIFTS CREATE FREE ENTERPRISE CENTER

OLD FORESTER MINT JULEP NAMED OFFICIAL DRINK OF THE KENTUCKY DERBY

UofL will use a $6.3 million gift from two foundations to create a new academic and research center in its College of Business.

Old Forester Mint Julep, a ready-to-serve cocktail made with Old Forester Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky, has been named the “Official Drink of the Kentucky Derby®” and will be served at Churchill Downs® in Louisville, Ky. on May 2, 2015. While Old Forester was introduced in 1870 and the Kentucky Derby® in 1875, the 141st Kentucky Derby marks the first time the two long-standing Louisville traditions have come together officially.

UofL will combine funds from the John H. Schnatter Family Foundation and Charles Koch Foundation to recruit two tenure-track professors and up to four doctoral fellows plus staff for the center, which will offer classes and a speaker series, conduct research, award fellowships and attract visiting professors. Stephan Gohmann, an economist who joined UofL in 1988 and became its BB&T Distinguished Professor of Free Enterprise in 2009, will be director. The Schnatter foundation is supplying $4.64 million—about 80 percent—of the total gift, with the Charles Koch Foundation making up the remaining $1.66 million. Schnatter, founder and chief executive officer of Papa John’s International, and his wife, Annette, are previous UofL donors and have supported community organizations such as Junior Achievement and the WHAS Crusade for Children. UofL’s Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium is named after Schnatter’s company. The Charles Koch Foundation has funded programs at more than 250 U.S. colleges and universities and has previously donated to UofL. The Center must still be approved by the UofL Faculty Senate and the Board of Trustees.

BRAD MCLEAN IS MARCH ARTIST OF THE MONTH AT GALLERY 104 Brad McLean has been painting ever since he took the same beginning algebra course at least twice. Others recognized his aptitude for art and encouraged him in it. He has had an urge to create for as long as he can remember

and expresses himself well through visual art. Life has taken McLean through a variety of experiences. The understanding he received from those experiences he now draws upon for portraits, landscapes, homesteads, still life and historical romanticism. Growing up in Jamestown, New York, McLean had a continual fascination with drawing. His later education did not follow a traditional pattern. After earning his Associate degree from Jamestown Community College, McLean worked in Graphic Arts for about a year. After earning his Bachelor degree he lived abroad for four years where he worked in book illustration and education. Since that time McLean’s Graphic Arts and Custom Picture Framing experience have helped with his continued work as an artist. McLean has exhibited paintings in Wisconsin, Kentucky, Ohio, New York State, South Carolina, and Virginia. He finds painting and the people he meets most rewarding. Through all the twists and turns of life he has consistently expressed the adventure through art. McLean lives and works in Elizabethtown, Kentucky with his wife and two sons.

Phil vs. Dick

At the NCAA Hall of Champions, Dick Vitale, ESPN college basketball analyst and one of the sport’s most recognizable icons, put his NCAA bracket-picking skills to the ultimate test against Punxsutawney Phil, the famous winter/spring predicting groundhog, as part of the Allstate’s March Mayhem Challenge. Allstate will make a monetary donation to Gobbler’s Knob to go towards the celebration of Groundhog Day and the V Foundation for cancer research on behalf of each competitor. Vitale picked Louisville to make it to the Regional Semifinals against Villanova while Phil had Villanova winning the whole thing and Kentucky being beaten by Purdue.

Of course getting a good draw and being able to take advantage of it aren’t mutually exclusive phenomenons. This Louisville team hasn’t done much over the last four months when it comes to giving us an idea of whether or not they’re going to be up to the task on the sport’s biggest stage, but here are five things I hope they are able to accomplish in the coming weeks.

4. ROZIER DOES ENOUGH TO MAKE TURNING PRO AN EASY DECISION Hear me out on this one. After hitting a wall in the last month of his sophomore season, Terry Rozier is now in a place where the likelihood of him leaving Louisville and becoming a first round pick in this summer’s NBA Draft isn’t nearly as high as it was back in January.

That being the case, the only possible way this winds up being an easy decision for him is if he plays like an absolute star while leading the Cards extremely deep in the tournament. If Rozier can carry the Cards all the way to Indianapolis, I think most fans would give him permission to take his game on to the professional level. 5. SOME SORT OF PASSING OF THE TORCH TAKES PLACE One of the biggest themes of the season has been Pitino’s insistence that the veteran players on the team teach the six newcomers about the “culture of Louisville basketball.” It’s an understanding point of emphasis given that Blackshear and Harrell are the only remaining pieces from the national championship team, and after this year’s tournament run, they’re both going to be gone. A massive part of Louisville’s recent “culture” has been success in March. This is going to be the first tournament taste for guys like Quentin Snider, Chinanu Onuaku and Shaqquan Aaron, and if they’re the ones responsible for continuing this recent run of Cardinal greatness in the coming years, they’re going to have to “get” what tournament success is all about at some point in these next couple of weeks. VT

1. LOUISVILLE MAKES THE SECOND WEEKEND OF THE TOURNAMENT There’s no feeling quite like seeing the dust settle after the first Thursday-Sunday of the big dance and having the peace of mind that your favorite team still has some basketball left to play. An opening weekend loss, on the other hand, makes those first few days back at work unbearable and watching the rest of the tournament becomes at least slightly depressing. For a team that lost so much a season ago and which has had to deal with so many issues over the course of the last five months, making it to (at least) the Sweet 16 would be a pat yourself on the back-worthy accomplishment. Not that we all won’t be dreaming bigger if we’re in that place a week from now. 2. BLACKSHEAR SCORES HIS 1,000TH CAREER POINT For all the criticism he’s had to endure over the last four years, Wayne Blackshear is entering his final NCAA Tournament playing the best basketball of his Cardinal career.

ing a Temple-UMass game in 1994, shouting “I’ll kill you” and actually trying to choke him. Something about Calipari haranguing the referees after the game. Is that a chokable offense? Since Chaney seemed like a decent man, the assumption was that Calipari must have been wrong, a bad kind of guy. He comes off as too slick by half, with all his well-rehearsed ad libs and beginning most sentences about his team with “I.” He has the baggage of those two NCAA appearances being vacated, though he seems not to have been at fault in either case. On the other hand, he has to be – must be, couldn’t help but be – cheating somehow, in some way, to have the recruiting success he’s had. (I don't recall anyone ever calling John Wooden or Dean Smith cheaters, and look at their recruits!) Any biography of Calipari always carries that clip of Bobby Knight telling an audience, “We’ve got a coach at Kentucky who put two schools on probation and he’s still coaching. I really don’t understand that.” Of course, Cal never choked a player, either. Been choked? Yes. But choked a student-athlete? Not as far as we know. A few years ago, ESPN published an article dismissing Cal as a marketing genius but not a very good coach, a celebrity hound who always recognizes a good opportunity. This year, he’s ready to put all that “not a good coach” stuff behind him. And it’s time for the college basketball nation to truly honor what this team has done. This team – and its coach! 40-0 or not, this has been an extraordinary season. Cal’s the reason. VT W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M •

Zayat Stable's American Pharoah was all alone at the finish as he splashed to victory in his return to racing in the Rebel Stakes at Oaklawn Park.

Champ Soars In Splashy Comeback

t’s a sport in which the highest of hopes can be dashed in flash, so that low hum you might have heard early Saturday evening could well have been the whoosh of a collective breath exhaled by Kentucky Derby fans across the land.

Horse Sense JOHN ASHER

The sound of sweet relief started to swell in the homestretch at Oaklawn Park as Zayat Stables’ reigning 2-year-old champion American Pharoah returned to the races for the first time since late September. He came back with a splash in both literal and figurative terms. The Bob Baffert-trained son of Pioneer of the Nile came out of the starting gate at soggy Oaklawn Park a little sideways – displacing a shoe in the process – but that was his last anxious moment as American Pharoah cruised to the lead against overmatched foes in the 1 1/16-mile “Road to the Kentucky Derby” stop that was his first race in nearly six months. He powered home under two-time Kentucky Derby-winning jockey Victor Espinoza to win his anticipating outing by 6 ¼ lengths over a sloppy surface. So the champ not only got the win in his anticipated return, he also proved M A R C H 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

adept on a wet racing surface in his first test over the goo.

his final prep race for the Run for the Roses on May 2 at Churchill Downs.

The victory was American Pharoah’s third consecutive romp against stakes foes following a poor outing in his career debut last summer. He was so dominant in a pair of Grade I stakes victories that he was voted champion of his age group despite an injury that knocked him out of the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile.

Despite his dazzling return to racing, American Pharoah remains second to recent Tampa Bay Derby winner Carpe Diem in my Kentucky Derby top 10 in the “Expert Picks” section of the official Kentucky Derby 141 event page. You can find thoughts by several Churchill Downs handicappers at kentuckyderby.com/racing-wagering/expert-picks.

The victory does not mean he will win the Kentucky Derby. He has yet to be seriously tested during his win streak and there’s a chance that Baffert has a better Kentucky Derby candidate in his barn in the unbeaten Dortmund. He is expected to have one more race before a trip to Louisville for the Derby, and even another romp there would leave plenty of questions that he would need to answer over a mile and a quarter at Churchill Downs. But American Pharoah’s win after such a long time away from competition gave racing fans a degree of confidence that Baffert’s star could still prove that he is or can be as good as last year’s stirring efforts promised that he might be. The victory by American Pharoah in the Rebel was Baffert’s fifth in six years, and chances appear good that he will return to Oaklawn Park on April 11 to make the Grade I Arkansas Derby

It was also a notable weekend for Texas Red, the runaway winner of the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile who has been on the sidelines due to injury since early February. Texas Red had an easy half-mile work last Saturday at Santa Anita and is scheduled to work again this Saturday. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family of former Churchill Downs General Manager Danny Parkerson, who died following an illness on March 13 at Sts. Mary and Elizabeth Hospital. He was 72. A man with a ready smile, Parkerson started a career that spanned four decades with an entry-level post in the track’s greenhouse. He kept moving forward and in 1991 was named general manager, a post once held by Churchill Downs and Kentucky Derby legend Col. Matt Winn. His long career concluded when Parkerson retired on Dec.31, 2000. VT PHOTO COURTESY OF COADY PHOTOGRAPHY

Walz, he has the No.1 recruiting class coming in, so we'll definitely get more females up there.

It's amazing. I never got to play here and I'm kind of upset about it. I graduated too early, but I do get to come back on May 23 with Shoni (Schimmel) and I hope all the fans will come out and we'll have a good time.

What is it like having Shoni as a teammate?

Taylor’s 10 KENT TAYLOR WAVE3 Sports

Is playing here something that you have been looking forward to? I'm so excited. I got a tour for the first time. The way the school has come up, it's just a blessing. Do you find yourself looking up at your number in the rafters? See, I'm up there with all those guys. I need some more females up there with me. Shoni will be up there with me soon, and some other females. Congratulations to Coach PHOTO COURTESY OF ABDUL SHARIF

First of all, everywhere we go it's packed because of Shoni. She has no fear, she's a leader and she was the MVP of the All-Star game. What else can you ask for?

How was her rookie season? She had rookie ups and downs, like any of us do. I just took her under my wing and told her to keep playing and do her thing and she'll be a star in this league. What are you doing with the rest of your off-season? I live in Atlanta now and I play overseas in Istanbul, but I'm back now. I get some time off to rest and relax.

How does Angel McCoughtry relax? I don't do anything. I relax. I'm always ripping and running, and I just get to relax and enjoy my family. What does it mean for women's basketball for the team to play every home game in the KFC Yum! Center? People don't know, the younger generation doesn't know. When I first got here we averaged about 1000 fans, and now we average about 8,000 or 9,000. What would winning a WNBA title mean to you? Someone asked me what's left in your career? I've got a gold medal, and made it to the Final Four in college. I need a WNBA Championship and then I can rest, go to the golf course and reside in Louisville. So you play golf, are you any good? I'm getting there; it's kind of relaxing. W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M •

They were really starving for success, so it was an easy sell when I took over the job. We’ve been able to accomplish so much, and it’s really just because the young ladies willingness to work hard, and work on their skills to improve and play together. We really have a very tight knit team.” Coach Ligon has been coaching for over 20 years. Ironically, prior to coaching at Male he coached at the school’s historic rival, DuPont Manual High School under coach Jimmy Just for the boys team. Since leaving and going to Male, Ligon has had 20-win seasons both years. This season, the Lady Bulldogs are district champions and regional champi-

Players have been able to put pride aside and not worry about playing time, he says. “We have a lot of depth, so people have to give up some playing time, but for the good of the team. We have so many players that can play at a high level; we’re able to wear teams down. We also have good size on the inside, [so we] pound the ball inside and wear teams out.” Male will remain a powerhouse in Louisville high school basketball for years to come. They live under the message: ‘Just try.’ Effort counts for everything for the Lady Bulldogs. Coach Ligon tells his players, “Everyday you need to try and bring your best. Everyday you’re proving yourself, and we’ve constantly preached about working hard and being focused.” This message has hit home for this program. The Lady Bulldogs have gotten their bark back, and will look to eat away at the competition in seasons to come. VT

Coach Ligon described his team as, “Killer whales. They’re beautiful, but they’ll bite your head off in a second if you don’t treat them right.” But on the court he says, “They’re going to play all out for 32 minutes, and if you can handle that then you have a chance to be successful. If you can’t handle that, then you’re going to struggle. So we’re going to come at you, start to finish.” The Lady Bulldogs play together as a team.

Welcome to the Big Dance!

TONY VANETTI: Alright, it’s the big dance. Let’s talk a little basketball. I thought it was ironic or weird that Denny Crum predicted that Louisville would be out in the second round and Matt Jones predicted Louisville could go to the Final Four.

MATT JONES: You can back me up on this, Tony. I predicted UofL’s fate in the tournament correctly for five straight years and this year, I looked at their bracket and, I don’t think there’s anybody that they can’t beat. If you’re Rick Pitino you’d probably say, okay, I’ve got a No. 1 and 2 seed. The two, I’ve got the best chance of beating. They both get put in Louisville’s bracket and don’t get me wrong: they could easily lose the first game, but I do think they have a chance to go to the Final Four. VANETTI: Well if you’re going by that standard then, do you think that is the weakest side of the bracket? JONES: I don’t know. I don’t think it’s the

weakest. I mean Duke’s bracket is the weakest but it is the most wide open. I think the No.3 seed in that bracket is Oklahoma. There’s nobody in that bracket that’s a powerhouse. So anyone can win it. I actually think there’s a lot of dangerous teams in that bracket. At the top there isn’t like some power that has to be knocked off.

VANETTI: Okay, let’s project Kentucky through a couple of games and let’s project Notre Dame the No. 3 seed to get it to the same spot. Have you thought about that match up, at all? JONES: Here’s what I think: Notre Dame

hasn’t been to the Elite Eight since 1999. So I’m not going to sit there and worry about Notre Dame in the Elite Eight until they get M A R C H 1 9 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

there. I look at that bracket and I say there’s a lot of ways for Notre Dame to lose before they get there. They’re the hardest matchup for Kentucky in their brackets but at the same time, people are assuming something about Notre Dame that isn’t necessarily true, which is that they always shoot well. Now if they come out and shoot well against Kentucky they’ve got a decent shot to beat them, but they don’t always shoot well and they play zero defense. Like, negative zero defense. And Kentucky can score. Last year’s Kentucky team couldn’t really score. This team can, so while I think Notre Dame is the toughest game for UK in that bracket, I also don’t think it’s the huge problem that some people do.

VANETTI: Alright, this is an easy question for either team: what does Louisville do best and what do they do worst, and the same for Kentucky? JONES: Well, why don’t you give some opinions here too Tony. VANETTI: I would say Kentucky’s best case scenario is that they hit the Final Four with very little difficulty. Notre Dame gets beaten out before they have to play Kentucky. Worst case, you play Maryland in the Sweet Sixteen. Melo Trimble can get really hot and you get knocked off. For Louisville best case is they go to the Final Four where they get beat by Duke. Worst case they come out cold as ice and they’re down three and they don’t have anybody like Russ Smith to bail ‘em out this year. JONES: I will agree with that. I like both of those assessments. But here’s my question with the tournament real quick: Kentucky’s a No. 1 overall seed. Shouldn’t they have the easiest route? I don’t understand why…

VANETTI: Oh yeah!

JONES: Why haven’t people been asking that question more? You look at the right side of the bracket and it’s clearly the left side where Kentucky is that has got more traps. VANETTI: My only complaint about the bracket at all is that Wisconsin and Arizona are on Kentucky’s side for the semi-finals but to be fair, that’s probably where they should be. They probably are the 4th and 5th seeded teams. So I can’t complain too much. If they just flipped and put Villanova’s bracket where Arizona and Wisconsin’s bracket is, I think everybody would think it looked really fair, all the way around, but they didn’t and so be it. You’ve got to play those teams anyway. Once you get to the Final Four, I think you have an expectation that you’re going to play somebody good. So I’m not overly concerned about it.

Alright, the estimates say that 40,000 Kentucky fans could invade Louisville this weekend. Also Prince Charles and Camilla are arriving on Friday. That should be a good mix. The Royals and Big Blue Nation together this Friday. JONES: I forgot about Prince Charles coming Friday, too. That should be good. We can put one of those 34-0 shirts on him, and I think everybody would be really happy. As for, Louisville, they’re going to Seattle you know? A little Peyton Siva reunion. What do you make of sending the Cards out to the West coast? VANETTI: Well I will tell you this little side note. Everytime one of the former players would show up at the KFC Yum! Center, Louisville would play terrible. Everyone

Sports Rick Pitino has been to six NCAA tournaments as the coach of the Kentucky Wildcats, and this year is taking the Louisville Cardinals to their 12th NCAA appearance.

wanted to impress their former teammate. So I’m hoping those guys are not going to show up. It could be pretty exciting in Seattle…But it’s a long haul going out to Seattle. Obviously there’s not going to be a lot of Louisville fans, since it’s pretty tough to get out there for a couple of days to go to the game. It’s so much more manageable if they can get lucky enough to get it together, and win those first two games, and move to Syracuse, which I think is a little bit better place for Louisville to go to a Sweet Sixteen game.

to suck as much as anybody else, but here’s the thing people don’t talk about when it comes to Louisville. While they have had problems this year, they really haven’t lost to anybody “bad,” but they haven’t beaten very many teams that are “good.” So I look at that bracket and say for at least the first two games, they’re better than Northern Iowa, they’re better than Wyoming, they’re better than UC Irvine. They haven’t lost to a bad team all year. My guess is they win both of those games.

JONES: Yeah, listen, no offense to all the various people that are picking Northern Iowa to beat Louisville, but I would question how many of these people have watched Northern Iowa probably more than once.

VANETTI: Yeah, they haven’t been blown out. The only two games in which they looked particularly bad were the Notre Dame and Duke games. Other than those games, they were in every other game. Even against Kentucky there was an eight point loss and it was really the last six or seven minutes of the game when Louisville looked bad. So I agree with you. They’ve never been blown out of games, and they’re going to be in every one of them all the way out here, possibly to the Final Four.

This always happens with the tournaments. Like, “Hey, there’s a school that would be cool to say is good. Let’s say Northern Iowa.” Now I actually have seen Northern Iowa play. I’ve been to Northern Iowa’s arena. And they are good, but they’re not better than Louisville. So if Louisville plays well they will beat Northern Iowa, and Northern Iowa could easily lose to Wyoming in that very first game. So Louisville got the perfect draw. If Rick Pitino had made the draw himself, he couldn’t have done a better job giving his team a chance. Now they have the ability, however,

JONES: Here’s how fickle fans are: Louisville still is not good this year, okay? A lot of fans, if they get to the Sweet Sixteen, will talk about what a great job Rick did. Even though it will take beating UC Irvine and maybe Northern Iowa. Two teams from conferences that are you know, not good,

but that’s how silly fans are. VANETTI: It's going to be fun. Let’s throw the ball up, buddy. We’ll see you in Indianapolis, okay? I’ve already got my reservations.

Pedaling to Make a Difference

Tour de Cure is an annual bike ride to raise money for the American Diabetes Association. This year’s event will be held on June 6 at Norton Commons. A kick-off event will take place on Thursday, March 26 at Molly Malone’s in St. Mattews to raise awareness of the event and to get teams to sign up and take part. We caught up with the American Diabetes Association’s Louisville representative Daley Muller to hear more. For those who don't know, what is Tour de Cure? Tour de Cure offers a great day of cycling and fun through beautiful Kentucky back roads, as well as the personal satisfaction of completing a ride and doing your part in the fight against diabetes. Whether you're a novice, an occasional rider or expert cyclist, we have a route that matches your ability. Our routes feature full-service rest stops as well as SAG and mechanical and medical support along the way. All routes will travel alongside the beautiful country roads of Jefferson, Oldham and Shelby Counties. Upon crossing the finish line, cyclists will celebrate with lunch and unwind in the massage tent, enjoy live music and more. At the current rate, one out of every three Americans born today will eventually develop diabetes. Whether it happens to you, your family, a friend, or a stranger, diabetes affects all of us. Currently, there are nearly 29 million Americans with diabetes and 89 million with pre-diabetes. By participating in the Tour de cure, cyclists will be supporting the 1.5 million people served each year by the American Diabetes Association in the state of Kentucky and in Southwestern Ohio. Why is the American Diabetes Association such an important cause? The American Diabetes Association’s mission is to prevent and cure diabetes, to improving the lives of all people affected by diabetes. We fund research for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and hoping that our fundraising efforts through the Kentucky Tour de Cure one day will help us find a cure.

JOIN more than 60,000 others across the U.S. riding to Stop Diabetes.®

Special Thanks to our National Sponsors

This is not the first year that the event has been staged, is must be heartening to know how much support there is in the community for it, correct? The Kentucky Tour de Cure has been going on since 2006. To see the event grow to where it is now and the constant support from our sponsors, the community, and participants from year to year is very rewarding and exciting. Tour de Cure sponsors include: Kroger Pharmacy, KentuckyOne Health, Kindred Healthcare, Parallon, Novo Nordisk, Scheller’s and Norton Commons.

What can participants expect this year, and is there anything they may not have seen last year? The free Kick-off Party is on Thursday, March 26 at Molly Malone’s in St. Matthews at 3900 Shelbyville Road, from 6-8 p.m., and is a chance for our riders, sponsors and anyone who is interested in the cycling fundraiser to come out and learn more about the Tour de Cure.

A Goal Behind The Grandeur BENEFITING DARE TO CARE

By REMY SISK, Contributing Writer

lthough all of Louisville will be ready for the city’s biggest day of the year on the first Saturday in May, it’s what is happening on the Thursday before that’s giving a purpose to the partying. On Thursday, April 30 in the North Wing of the Kentucky Exposition Center, Churchill Downs will host Taste of Derby, presented by Stella Artois.

According to Stanley Siegwald, Director of Policy and Planning for Dare to Care, “Taste of Derby is an excellent example of how the community continues to reach out and work to help families that are struggling.” Thanks to Taste of Derby’s initiative to benefit Dare to Care, guests are primed to gain a deeper understanding of the cause. Based in Louisville, Dare to Care was formed in 1969 after a nine year-old child died of malnutrition on Thanksgiving eve. For the past 45 years, the nonprofit organization has helped relieve hunger in Jefferson and surrounding counties. Currently, Dare to Care is on track to distribute 15 million meals this fiscal year to struggling families. “There are nearly 200,000 people in Kentuckiana who suffer food insecurity, which means they struggle to access the food they need to live a healthy life,” Siegwald relates. “That’s one in six people.” However, the only way Dare to Care can accomplish this awe-inspiring feat is through community involvement.

This unique event, which is currently in its sixth year, is the only Derby week evening activity hosted by Churchill Downs. The evening boasts a rich offering of cuisine, wines and beers from around the country. “It’s a foodie event,” describes Dana Dana Johnson, Senior Director of Johnson, the Senior DirecCorporate Responsibility for tor of Corporate ResponsiChurchill Downs. bility for Churchill Downs. “It’s an event that highlights premiere chefs “We are really fortunate to live in a communiaround the country and their cuisine, which is ty that is very generous and is very committed to usually based on their area.

be getting financial support at a time when we are really trying to ramp up efforts to reach kids who are losing meals once school ends,” he explains. Through the school year, Dare to Care operates the Dare to Care Community Kitchen, which caters 1,500 daily meals to certain afterschool sites, but over the summer, the kitchen works to produce even more so children out of school do not go hungry. Johnson is hopeful Taste of Derby will be able to help Dare to Care position itself for its efforts over the summer. When asked what she hopes people take away from Taste of Derby, she says simply, “more awareness and more compassion for the hunger problem in our area.” Siegwald expresses similar hopes: “one of the challenges we work constantly to address is communicating to our community the scale of the problem.” Ideally, Taste of Derby will provide Dare to Care with the platform to do just that and reveal to the revelers that there is a monumentally important goal behind the grandeur.

The Kentucky Derby is all about the horses, but it’s also the place where fashion runs a close second. The Derby is one of the few occasions for which the gentlemen put as much thought and effort into their attire as the ladies. Whether you’re sitting with the celebrities or strolling in the paddock, this is the one sporting event where the men better look good. I reached out to a few of our local boutiques to help put together a few Derby looks for the guys.

Since I’m about to move into a new home, While it has fallen under different owners and titles over its 200 year history in this city, Louisville Stoneware remains a steadfast producer of our country’s great ceramics, attracting artists and enthusiasts of the craft to indulge in its facilities. It’s historic significance in the production of containment devices for companies shipping out the vulnerable products from this area, has maintained modern significance in its preservation of fully functional and decorative items made by gifted local artists.

I took an address plaque and started what I thought would be the quick painting of a four-digit number using the mild calligraphy skills I attained in a letterforms class years ago. It wasn’t so simple.

David Mahoney, one of Louisville Stoneware’s leading designers in their painted pottery, is responsible for some of the most popular patterns sold in the shop, especially the dark green swirls on the tableware, known as “Graffiti.” While there, I was not surprised to learn that lots of people visit after having a little brunch at the excellent restaurant across from the building, known as The Café. If you haven’t been, I recommend it. Their food is delicious and it would be worth including it in your visit to the factory. I’ve always been artistically inclined, but I have some strange neurosis related to getting my hands dirty. When I was a kid, I liked to paint and draw, but I developed an aversion to sculpture. Just recently, I’ve been getting over this problem by putting my hands in flour when teaching myself how to bake. The same goes for dirt, while learning to garden. I don’t know if I’m ready for muddy clay yet, but I have a fondness for the work of those who have made it their profession. I think handmade items, ranging from tableware to sculpture, have the character that helps to set the atmosphere when vitalizing a home. And it is important to recognize a local industry, which keeps this alive. VT

When going through the building’s entrance on Stoneware Alley, I made my way down a ramp into their large store area, which featured gorgeous dining sets, vases, garden decorations and local canned food products. Along with all their merchandise for sale, they do custom work, which I can imagine being a grand gift to anyone desiring objects with a unique PHOTOS BY BENNETT DUCKWORTH | CONTRIBUTING PHOTOGRAPHER

The Color of Robins in the Spring

ast year, Louisville interior designer Robin Cole took on her toughest client, a couple relocating from a spacious 3,500-square-foot home to something old and historical but half the living space.

“It gave me a great deal of perspective to have to go through the same anxieties so many of my clients go through,” said Cole, who owns Robin’s Nest Interiors on South English Station Road east of the Gene Snyder, near Lake Forest.

You don’t want to get stuck with an orange house because it was the color of the moment when you moved in.” When clients have difficulty identifying their preferences, Cole has a simple-but-obvious trick. “I go look in their closet,” she said. “People tend to buy what they like.” She says people are afraid to commit to a color because they won’t like it once it’s up on the walls.

“I honor that fear. Paint is easy and relatively inexpensive to change. That $5,000 sofa you bought because it went with the color you chose – not so easy, certainly not inexpensive.” She urges her clients to keep the color palette as neutral as possible and dress the home up with her specialty: accessories, lighting, window treatments, what she calls the “finishing touches.” see page 62

here was a certain balmy excitement in the warm Florida air as I stepped out of the Ft. Lauderdale airport. And why not? It was December, it was 78 degrees, I was back in Miami and I had a new “girlfriend” patiently awaiting my company for dinner. There were a few red flags.

dle-aged woman who’s never been married.

Bachelor Behavior R.

Because somewhere in that jaded, adult head there’s a little girl still clinging to the notion that Prince Charming will sweep in and fix everything.

The mere suggestion that it could end up any other way was an insult to her life-coach CHASE mandated delusion that I had somehow just shattered with my realism.

She would call me to tell me what she wanted to cook for us and suddenly hang up screaming “your negativity is destroying this relationship!” She spouted insipid pop-psychology phrases like “you need a lesson in gratitude for all the bad things that aren’t happening to you.” Who thanks the Universe for not doing bad stuff to them? I’m also sure she was still active on Tinder, because while I was checking out women on Tinder I noticed she “de-matched” me, which I could only assume was to make sure I wasn’t able to see her checking out guys on Tinder. I was looking forward to spending my vacation with my new pseudo-Tinder-girlfriend. So what if it was temporary? The best things in life usually are. Permanent stuff, like shingles and taxes, are the biggest downers. I picked her up and I was immediately put off by something. I’d just drank half a bottle of Pinot Grigio with my sister, so my spider-senses weren’t functioning at full capacity, but she didn’t seem like the same person I met 10 days ago. After the moderate chitchat and appetizers, she started probing me with serious relationship questions. Then she asked me how long I’d been married. I told her I couldn’t remember. “You can’t even remember what year you were married?” “No, but I sure as hell remember the year I got divorced.” One thing I learned is that you shouldn’t mock the institution of marriage to a mid-

Her demeanor suddenly got stiff and uncomfortable. “I just don’t know what to do with you,” she said as the main course arrived. “You’re not being very romantic.” I suddenly realized that this woman was looking for actual “romance.” On Tinder. It made me laugh so hard inwardly I inhaled a scallop and almost choked to death at the table. My cynical reaction made her erupt into a torrent of criticisms with a veracity and vitriol that I could only imagine were meant for some man-ghost from her past and not present company. The scene got so unpleasant I shoved the table aside, told her to go to hell and left (after I paid the bill, because I am Southern and have manners). I got an Uber to Smith and Wollensky’s and angrily ordered a double-shot of Tito’s. Two middle-aged Cuban women at the bar invited me to a party, where they forced me to dance to awful maudlin romantic Spanish music at top volume and poured me wine until my eyes were blurry.

net-ness” of the whole format makes it feel as un-connected to our real lives as looking at porn. We have yet to really integrate the “online” part of our lives with the “real” part of them, and Tinder is just the Warcraft of casual dating, where we create caricatures of our own lives and pretend that they’re really us, when in fact we know it’s a lie. And knowing that what you’re presenting to other people is a lie makes you unable to actually be yourself, which in turn makes the whole thing a dance with your ego, and not an actual partner. Deep down, I think the human spirit rebels against Tinder. We want love to be special. We want love to be unique. We want meaning in our relationships. Who the hell wants “We Met On Tinder” to be their wedding theme? I deleted the app from my phone, and went back to the party, where I sang “Toca La Brisa, Eres Tu” and learned the waltz before they finally kicked me out at 5:30 am. As I crawled back to The Waverly my sister was already up, walking the dogs. “How was your date?” I crawled under the sheets, my head still ringing with Spanish romance music. All I could utter was: “Nosotros bailamos.” VT R. Chase is a local writer and surveyor of single life on the Bourbon Trail. Follow him on twitter at @_Rchase

I stared out across the Miami bay from their high-rise condo, thinking about the situation as the water rippled hazily in the humid December air. The problem with Tinder is that the format is too full of promise, and too lacking in permanence. It’s internet-inspired anonymity makes it the dating equivalent of YouTube commentary – we don’t really give a damn about what we say or do, because we perceive it as “not real” somehow. But it is real. We’re here to meet real people, who are just as lonely and displaced as us. But maybe the “inter-

New on digital download services, such as iTunes and Amazon, is a recent movie, for rent, called “All the Wilderness,” which is far from perfect, but is still worth seeing if you take interest in coming-ofage stories. Its Portland, Oregon setting functions, not only as a setting for Terrence Malick-inspired aesthetics, but as a symbolic backdrop for a troubled mind, which wanders through all the urban decay and wooded areas the outskirts of Portland’s metro area can offer.

That’s what I also tried to do in though they are still there by ‘Flavors from Home,’ keep the original cooking their native cuisine in ingredients and methods as close to what the cooks used when preparing their new Louisville kitchens. Zaring stumbled onto these stories after meeting a Bosnian refugee through a Leadership Louisville program in 2008. Zeljana Javork told Zaring about her journey of escaping war in Bosnia, coming to the U.S. before she knew much English, and working her way up to become the English Language Trainer manager at Catholic Charities’ ESL school. “She invited me to volunteer at the school,” Zaring continues, “which I did, and I soon discovered that working with immigrants was a perfect fit for me, bridging my love of the English language and other cultures with my interest in helping some of the disadvantaged people in my community. I really love working with this population. Whenever I’m with them, I feel like a part of me is returning home.” Zaring shares their stories and recipes in her new book, “Flavors from Home.” One featured immigrant is Omar Pernet Hernández, who was Zaring’s student at the Refugee Elder Program (co-sponsored by Kentucky Refugee Ministries and Catholic Charities).

On the other hand, I just visited the Akramis at Shiraz Mediterranean Grill the other day, and they mentioned that they’ve made some minor adaptations to some of their native dishes to appeal to American tastes. I remember Huong ‘CoCo’ Tran (owner of Roots and Heart & Soy) also telling me that when she first opened The Eggroll Machine in 1981 (the first Chinese fast-food restaurant in Louisville) and tried to introduce her native Vietnamese cuisine on her original menu, she found that “Louisville wasn’t ready” yet. So, from a business standpoint, I don’t fault immigrant entrepreneurs whatsoever for doing what they feel is necessary to bring people in the door and appeal to a wide range of tastes. That said, I think people’s tastes across America and right here in Louisville are evolving. Just look at our growing number of ethnic restaurants and grocery stores, and even American restaurants that are constantly introducing internationally-inspired dishes on their menus.

But the writing of each relies on many of the same linguistic tools: syntax, diction, image, description. The list goes on and on. Most poems possess some narrative foundation, and many of the best stories disregard plot altogether. Using fast-paced and generative writing prompts, this workshop aims to deconstruct the rigid distinction between poetry and fiction—and, to that effect, creative nonfiction—by helping participants to recognize the transferability of their writing skills. In addition, due to the generative nature of the class, participants will leave this workshop with the beginning of one new poem and/or story. Writers of all

PUZZLES

pets of the week Marmie is a one-year-old Maine Coon mix with long orange fur. He loves when a staff members rubs his neck, and if we don’t start fast enough, he’ll rub his neck up against our legs to let us know what he wants. Marmie is not shy. He knows what he wants and plans on getting it, and what he wants is a nice home with fun people who will love him and let him play with toys. Marmie is neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Come meet him today at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive. For more on Marmie or any of our adoptable pets, please call 502.366.3355 or visit kyhumane.org. Arry is a two-year-old Labrador retriever/Pitbull mix who is as friendly as can be. She loves to meet new people. She’s got a lot of energy and would do best with an active family. Her energy levels can be too much for some dogs, so we strongly recommend a meet and greet. Arry is the outdoorsy type and would love to take long walks, maybe even hikes, with you. Could you keep up with Arry? She’s spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on all of her shots. Come visit her at the Kentucky Humane Society’s East Campus, 1000 Lyndon Lane. For more on Arry or any of our adoptable pets, please call 502.366.3355 or visit kyhumane.org.
