ducation is something very important to my family and me. Since they were young, I have told my girls their education is the foundation for the rest of their life. Whatever career path they choose, they will have that foundation. Education doesn’t just teach skills and knowledge; it teaches responsibility. The Backside Learning Center at Churchill Downs teaches tremendously important skills. As their parents are caring for the 1,200 horses kept at Churchill Downs’ backside, the students of the learning center discover how to complete basic day-to-day tasks. They also learn valuable technology skills and improve their English. I’ve always said learning a second language is beneficial for anyone and everyone. This center is helping these students in more ways than just education. Talk about an awesome education … Three young men from Louisville Collegiate have proven that they are anything but a statistic. They have all scored a perfect score on their ACT. They have credited their parents for pushing them to be the best and Louisville Collegiate for giving them their passion for knowledge. I have a feeling their mailboxes will soon be full of university acceptance letters. Way to go, boys! In Sports this week, we listen as horseracing aficionado John Asher celebrates the lives of departed friends unable to witness the history recently made by the instant legend American Pharoah.

cess. Finally, we extol the achievements of Louisville’s own Louisville City Football Club and take pride in the growing success of one of our city’s newest sports offerings. This week, we also ventured to a new workout facility in town, Barre Code. I’ll do anything for a good sweat, and this studio is the spot for that. Barre Code is a total body workout – including cardio, strength training and restoration. They have seven different class formats, so I promise there is a class for you! Check this place out, but you are warned that you will be sore the next day. After all that working out, I feel it’s only appropriate to treat myself to some good food. Lori’s Mixing It Up features some cute outfits that are perfect for summertime BBQs. These outfits are all fun and interchangeable, but the best part about them all is the accessories. Accessories are one of my greatest weaknesses. Take a look at the treasures Lori has found from local boutiques. Around town, we attended a knockout event that promoted working out and good health: Louisville Fitness Festival. This was brought together by some of the city’s top fitness instructors to help raise money for Louisville Girls Leadership Program. Although it was storming pretty badly, we didn’t let the rain ruin the fun. We also attended The Kentucky Pride Festival where tons of people came out to support the diversity of life. It warms my heart when people in our city support one another without judgment. Lastly, I couldn’t go without mentioning my friend Dan Woodside’s birthday celebration. This event was filled with cocktails, good food and laughs. There is truly nothing better than being surrounded by good friends. Cheers!

was a welcome respite from the muggy outdoors, where, against a background of neighing and stamping, the splashing of water for cleanup marked the end of a grueling day. Inside the Backside Learning Center at Churchill Downs, creativity and curiosity abound. A heterogeneous collection of artwork – some quite good – covers a wall with the workmanship of a little known but indispensable community. In the middle of the room, a few people were sitting around relaxing on a recent afternoon. One of them was Roberto Gonzalez, who first came to the center to learn English in 2004, the year it opened. “This place is like a home for us,” he says. Now Gonzalez teaches Spanish to anyone around Churchill Downs who wants to learn. Sitting across from him was Mario Quevedo, a backside worker who has been coming to the center over the past two years to learn English. A PLACE TO UNWIND The center exists to provide educational and social services to people, like Quevedo, who look after the 1,200 horses that live in 47 barns behind the track. The workforce totals about 1,000 people, many of them immigrants from Guatemala or Mexico. Most all of them work seven days a week. Out of a year, they can expect no more than about a week off.

More than half of the workers live in apartments on the grounds. At the center, they get help with the many challenges they face as newcomers to a foreign land and laborers in a grueling profession. They find assistance passing their driver’s license exam or earning their GED. And the center works closely with Kentucky Refugee Ministries to help them obtain their U.S. citizenship. In a computer lab on one end of the center, equine workers can get basic technology training. And a classroom on the other end of the building is the site of a wide variety of opportunities to learn. Whether they need help enrolling their kids in school and communicating with their teachers, acquiring bus tickets or getting to doctor appointments, the center is there for them. “We try as hard as we can to just accommodate their needs,” says Sherry Stanley, the center director, who is one of just two full-time paid staff members and three total paid employees. The center relies on about 50 volunteers like Gonzalez and like Alice Cao, an intern who is majoring in education studies at Berea College. Cao was also in the center that afternoon, playing a little chess before things got busy. Outside, the backside workers cleaned up from the day. They would soon arrive at the center to learn, to socialize and to unwind. MORE THAN FUN AND GAMES A few blocks away at Victory Memorial Baptist Church, 3805 Southern Parkway, the center holds activities for equine workers’ children. For liability reasons, Churchill Downs doesn’t allow children on the backside where the center’s own building is located. But the church lets them use

two of its classrooms twice a week for free. That’s been good news for Lauren DeGeorge, the center’s educational programs coordinator, who used to have to spend valuable funds on a different off-site facility. “They have been amazing to work with,” she says of the church. Thanks to donations, one of the classrooms there brims with books, worksheets, dictionaries and lots of other educational materials. During the school year, volunteers help the children with their homework. On this summer evening, two volunteers were helping the kids draw big, colorful pictures and teaching them some basic yoga poses. One of the volunteers was Stephanie Solis, who will be a junior this fall at duPont Manual High School. She got connected with the center through her involvement in the Spanish Honor Society. The other volunteer was a recent U of L graduate named Emmy Jennings, who is pursuing certification at Bellarmine University for teaching English as a foreign language. Jennings started volunteering twice a week at the center about two months ago after discovering it through VolunteerMatch.org. She loves building friendships with the kids and getting them to open up to her, she says. Some of the most rewarding moments are just seeing them have fun. “I want good things for them,” she said. The center’s directors keep the agenda packed with different activities for the children. At the time of this visit, they had arranged for them to attend a bilingual play later that week and, later on, take a trip to the zoo. A volunteer was schedSEE PAGE 14

uled to come in and show the kids how to make their own hula-hoops. Another was set to teach them some drumming and music. The activities give the kids something to do that’s fun and educational – an opportunity Stanley believes they might not get otherwise. “Their parents are so tied to their jobs on the track, and a lot of them don’t have transportation,” she says. “I think they’re spending a lot of time at home watching TV.” Stanley goes on to add: “This is a really, really popular program and something that was really needed here because there wasn’t any programming directed at children of backside workers.” THE LANGUAGE OF DREAMS Meanwhile in another classroom in the church, some of the children’s mothers were keenly immersed in an English class. “The parents that come to this program are just really amazing examples for their kids,” DeGeorge says. Adriena Dame’s enthusiastic teaching style left no doubt that she loves her job. This lesson was all about hands. Dame asked the students to name activities that we do with our hands and wrote down their responses on the board. “This is a labor of total passion,” she said after class. With that passion to serve Louisville’s immigrant population, Dame went to Spalding University to pick up her endorsement for teachJ U N E 2 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

ing English as a second language. Previously a Seneca High School teacher, she’s been teaching classes for the center twice a week over the past year. It so happened that this was her last evening there. In pursuit of a career in holistic healing and wellness, she’s accepted a new job, and the schedules conflict. Having made friendships with the students, Dame said she’s sad to part ways. But she plans on having them over to her home to hang out and have dinner. Dame said teaching the backside workers has helped her understand the true meaning of gratitude. “I’m thankful for them, thankful for their stories,” she says. “They have these amazing stories to tell, and I get to hear those bit by bit over the course of time.” The workers tell her about what brought them to the U.S., what they’ve had to sacrifice and what they’ve left behind. “It’s making me more appreciative of the things that I have and we as Americans have in this country,” Dame says. “… They work hard, you know. They work very hard.” And despite the workers’ adverse circumstances, she claims they’re “thankful for everything.” She hears it after every class: “Thank you, Teacher, thank you.” Dame’s vision has been simply to equip the

students to realize their own individual dreams. One of them had been a nurse in her native country, and now she’s learning English to pass the nursing board exams in the U.S. “Most of them, their dream is to just take care of their families and send their kids off to college,” Dame says. Bertila Quinteros, one of the most advanced English students in Dame’s class, has two teenage children who were back in the family’s native Guatemala at the time. Quinteros moved to the U.S. several years ago and took a job as a groom at Churchill Downs. “In my country, we work a lot, and it’s only a little money,” she said. “And you come here, you work, but it’s more money.” Quinteros is driven to keep learning English by her love of conversing with whomever she meets. For her, the center provides an abundantly helpful set of opportunities to learn, through group classes at the church and individual assistance in the center’s own building. “The learning center helps us a lot,” she says. Churchill Downs provides the building for the center and covers the utilities but doesn’t pay center staff or fund any of its programming. The center opened with the Klein Family Foundation and WinStar Farm paying the initial costs to get started. Since then, it’s been depending almost exclusively on private donations.

the guessing penalty of the SAT hinders your ability to guess,” he explains. “But when you have a few ideas and you’re not entirely sure, the SAT incentivizes just not answering, which I don’t like.” Indeed, the SAT scores tests based on correct and incorrect answers while the ACT only scores based on correct answers. Accordingly, on the ACT, guessing does not hurt a student, but if a student does not know the answer on the SAT, he or she is encouraged to leave the question blank.

Coley Sullivan, another student who attained a perfect ACT score, echoes that idea, “I didn’t really prepare for the ACT,” he claims. “I prepared a little for the SAT and decided to take both and see which I would do better on.” This decision to take both tests Sullivan similarly thanks his family. “My is exceptionally common in high school stuFortunately for Asher, Sullivan and Steendents despite the fact that the majority scores parents have always encouraged me to work rod, there wasn’t much guessing involved, as 2427 GLENMARY AVENUE LOUISVILLE, KY hard 40204 and 502.479.0340 encouraged my loveLOUCOL.COM of learning their education at Collegiate readied them two different tests. similarly on the from a young age, so I think that definitely for success on the test. “It’s not just like the John Steenrod, the final student to have helped,” he says of his success.

Small Moves, Big Results

women’s fitness studio with an innovative method and mantra has opened its doors in Middletown. The Barre Code is the first and only Kentucky franchise of a Chicago-based company that was launched just a few years ago.

“This concept incorporates kind of an all-in-one-stop shop for women to be able to get the three pillars of fitness,” Hiner says.

Business Profile

For cardio, there’s a kickboxing class called Brawl, as well as two high-intensity, boot camp-style classes called Interval and TBC, which stands for Total Body Conditioning.

WES KERRICK

At 12442 Shelbyville Road, the studio opened May 16 to become only the 15th Barre Code in the country. There’s a lot in that name. “Barre” refers to the studio’s workout method. It emphasizes repetition and endurance, using a very small range of motion. “The smaller the movement the better,” says owner Amanda Hiner. Opening the studio was a natural venture for Hiner, who’s been an avid fitness enthusiast over the past five to six years. She also happened to know what it takes to run a successful business. She and her husband, Ben Hiner, own all the Edible Arrangements stores in Louisville. The couple knew they wanted to open a fitness studio, so they looked at the options and picked The Barre Code. J U N E 2 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

The studio provides those pillars – cardio, strength training and restoration – in seven different class formats.

“It’s meant to spike your heart rate and then bring it back down, so you get a metabolic boost after class for hours,” Hiner says. Barre-dio, a choreographed, dance-inspired class, includes strengthening sections for the arms, abs and glutes. For strength training, the studio’s signature Barre Code class offers a full-body workout. Heavy repetition of tiny movements works the muscles to fatigue using a variety of props. For a similar class called Burn, the room is heated to 95 degrees, which adds a detoxifying effect to the workout. A heated barre class is a unique experience, Hiner says. “There’s no one else in Louisville that offers a class format like that.” Restoration comes in the form of a hot yoga class called Baryasa. “It’s a great supple-

ment to the other classes that we offer because you’re really able to reward your body for the amazing work that it puts in.” The word “Code” in the studio’s name is also replete with meaning. It refers to the overarching principle that guides clients and instructors at the studio. “When it comes to the core of who we are, we are about empowering our clients to find new strength, to commit to themselves, to love themselves, to love their body,” Hiner says. The studio’s instructors received training in Chicago, and they each specialize in certain classes. As the lights dim and clients work out to The Barre Code’s own music remix, the COURTESY PHOTOS

instructors make sure the clients know they’re with them – not just in the room, but in the struggle. “A lot of our teaching style is motivation,” Hiner says. So much of the battle is neurological, Hiner says – convincing yourself that you can and should complete the workout. “It’s going to build up strength physically, but also mentally, to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and your boundaries.” But the instructors offer modifications to fit each woman’s fitness level. “We have women of all ages and sizes and

shapes and backgrounds,” Hiner says, “and we embrace everyone.” The hardest part, though, is getting started. So each time a client walks in the door, Hiner considers it a victory to celebrate. And once they’re in the studio, she says, they find a place where they can let down their guard and embrace their challenges. “The strength that they find in here, which is amazing, they take out the doors with them and use it in each and every aspect of their life.” VT For more information, call the studio at 502.749.2951, email Hiner at middletown@thebarrecode.com or visit thebarrecode.com/studios/kentucky/louisville/middletown, where you can sign up for a class.

STITES & HARBISON ATTORNEY JOHN FAMULARO INDUCTED INTO UK COLLEGE OF LAW HALL OF FAME

MORGAN STANLEY SUPPORTS EXPANSION OF DARE TO CARE BACKPACK BUDDY PROGRAM THAT DELIVERS NUTRITION TO YOUTH ON WEEKENDS

KENTUCKY SHAKESPEARE RECEIVES “SHAKESPEARE IN AMERICAN COMMUNITIES” NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS GRANT

The University of Kentucky College of Law recently inducted Stites & Harbison, PLLC attorney John Famularo to its Hall of Fame for 2015. Inclusion in the Hall of Fame is the highest honor one can receive from the College of Law. Famularo was inducted during the Kentucky Bar Association annual convention held at the Lexington Convention Center on June 17.

Dare to Care Food Bank announced a $50,000 grant from Morgan Stanley to support Backpack Buddy, a child hunger initiative that ensures students receive nutritious food on weekends during the school year. Dare to Care’s Backpack Buddy puts healthy food directly into the hands of children at risk of hunger on weekends by filling backpacks with nutritious staples like cereal, canned protein and fresh fruit. This fills the gap created when these children can’t access school meals on weekends.

Kentucky Shakespeare is one of 40 nonprofit, professional theatre companies chosen to participate in the 2015-16 Shakespeare in American Communities program. Kentucky Shakespeare will receive a $25,000 grant award from Arts Midwest in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts in support of efforts to expose underserved students to the works of William Shakespeare.

Famularo is a Member (Partner) of Stites & Harbison based in Lexington. He has been an active trial lawyer for more than 30 years. He successfully argued the boundary dispute case of Ohio v.

Over the past three years, food banks like Dare to Care have collectively received more than $4 million from the firm to help launch, expand and sustain critical childhood feeding programs.

“It is an exciting time for Kentucky Shakespeare’s education program. Last season we served over 50,000 students in 58 Kentucky counties, toured all Louisville Free Public Libraries, and eighteen public parks,” said Producing Artistic Director Matt Wallace. “This Shakespeare in American Communities grant will allow us to subsidize performances for at risk students and do important violence prevention, prejudice reduction and conflict resolution work across the Kentuckiana area through ‘Romeo and Juliet’.”

“We are honored to be able to help the Dare to Care Foodbank in its important fight against child hunger,” said Morgan Stanley Complex Manager Frank Roccisano. “Giving back to the communities where we live and work is one of Morgan Stanley’s core values.”

With the National Endowment for the Arts Shakespeare in American Communities grant, Kentucky Shakespeare will present a touring production of Romeo and Juliet directed by Wallace. The production will explore race relations and violence and be accompanied with related educational activities including workshops, pre-show workshops, post-show discussions, community conversations and comprehensive curriculum guides. They anticipate reaching 35 schools from Kentucky and Indiana.

There’s still We THINK, therefore time to think... we are St. Francis. about Fall.

Difference By KYLE KERSEY,

Louisville Collegiate School ’15 Alum

hen I first entered high school four years ago, I was introduced to an environment in which I could become something more than simply a student. Teachers and administrators knew my name; I was greeted as I walked in by faculty and peers, and I became involved in the greater community on a level only achievable at a small school like Louisville Collegiate School. As my interests in mathematics and science grew, I was able to ask for supplemental material and had the opportunity to deepen my knowledge through independent studies, which led to tackling more challenging material. I found out quickly that my teachers were devoted enough to their students that they could help me pursue my desire for knowledge, and I felt that they were genuinely interested in my progress. As I came to know my teachers on a more personal level, I began to work with a couple of them as a teaching assistant. Continuously throughout high school, I have learned that a personal friendship with my teachers has provided me with opportunities to diversify my involvement in the school’s facilities. This year marks the first for the school’s Makerspace, a place for students to develop their ideas using computer modeling software, a 3D printer, a laser cutter, woodworking equipment and electronics parts and tools. For my senior service, I worked in The Makery, volunteering my time to help build the space from an unused room to a functioning design laboratory. Not only has this experience allowed me to develop my own skills but it has also given me the opportunity to expose others to the importance and potential of the Makerspace. I continued to experience the luxury of a relationship with the school’s faculty as I worked one-

on-one with a college counselor through this year’s grueling college application process. I believe that this sort of individual attention and guidance through the difficult and technical aspects of applying is one of the many benefits Collegiate offers its students.

Not only has a school like Collegiate been wonderful in helping me transition from middle school and feel welcome among the upperclassmen but also it has left me well-prepared for college-level courses, as I am an inaugural student in the school’s multivariable calculus class.

Finally, as I have progressed through high Overall, I feel exceptionally prepared to move on school, I have pursued numerous extracurricular to the next phase of my life, and I am grateful for activities, from academic clubs and competitions the enthusiasm, professionalism and personal attento musical productions. Collegiate does an excel- tion that the Collegiate community has provided lent job encouraging students to seek out activities me over the last four years. VT outside the classroom. I never saw myself as a particularly athletic student, but I nonetheless enjoyed being part of a sports team. I have had the opportunity to travel with the school to three different countries to practice my foreign language skills and engage in community service. Additionally, I have worked outside of school to receive my Private Pilot’s Certificate and conduct extracurricular research at the University of Louisville’s Speed School of Engineering. It has been refreshing to Children with learning differences do not have such an enthubenefit from simply “getting by” in school.

LEGAL NOTICE NORTHERN SUPPLY ACCESS PROJECT NOTICE OF PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION AND MODIFICATION OF INTERSTATE NATURAL GAS PIPELINE FACILITIES On June 5, 2015, Texas Gas Transmission, LLC (Texas Gas), a subsidiary of Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP filed an application with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) under Section 7 (c) of the Natural Gas Act in Docket No. CP15-513-000. Texas Gas is seeking authorization to modify certain yard and station piping at existing compressor stations located in Lawrence County, Indiana, Jefferson County, Kentucky, Breckinridge County, Kentucky, Webster County, Kentucky, Tipton County, Tennessee, Coahoma County, Mississippi, and Morehouse Parish, Louisiana; install gas cooling facilities at an existing compressor station in Dearborn County, Indiana; and install a new gas turbine compressor and classify certain reciprocating compressors as operational spares at an existing compressor station in Morehouse Parish, Louisiana. The proposed modifications at the existing compressor stations will allow Texas Gas to flow proposed quantities of natural gas north to south, while retaining the existing capability to flow natural gas south to north. No new facilities will be placed outside any of the existing compressor station yards, resulting in no new permanent land impact. Texas Gas is also seeking authority to construct, own, operate, and maintain a new compressor station in Hamilton County, Ohio with minimal acreage needed for permanent operation of the facility. Texas Gas anticipates work to begin in April 2016. The Northern Supply Access Project is more fully described in the application to FERC. A copy of the application is available at the Louisville Free Public Library, 301 York Street, Louisville, KY 40203. The application may also be viewed on the FERC website at www.ferc.gov, using the “eLibrary” link by entering the docket number in the docket number field to access the document.

he NBA draft is tonight, and we can finally put an end to the clutter of information that has become a part of almost everything in our culture.

Superstar or Bust? replacement level players have an SPM of about -2.”

Catnip

So who’s the Superstar in this year’s class? The data say Karl-Anthony Towns, with a projected SPM of 1.03. By comparison, Jahlil Okafor of Duke has an SPM of 0.52.

STEVE KAUFMAN

This year’s draft has been sliced and diced, given an MRI, taken a Myers-Briggs personality test and asked to bend over and cough, all with the intention of allowing a team to avoid the Curse of Sam Bowie.

In 1984, after Houston had drafted Hakeem Olajuwon, the Portland Trailblazers picked Kentucky’s Bowie with the second pick, leaving the third pick to the Chicago Bulls. They picked Michael Jordan. It’s still the poster child for What Were They Thinking?? But you could probably find something similar in every college draft since the NBA began the process in 1947. Among the players who’ve been selected One, Two and Three have been Michael Olowokondi, Darko Milicik, Adam Morrison, Hasheem Thabeet and, yes, Pervis Ellison. Among those players not selected Number One were John Havlicek, Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Dirk Nowitzki, Paul Pierce, Chris Paul and Kevin Durant. Steph Curry was Number Seven in 2009. (What did ever happen to Jonny Flynn?) Brandon Knight, Kemba Walker and Klay Thompson were eighth, ninth and 11th in 2011; Derrick Williams, Jan Veseley and Bismack Biyombo were second, sixth and seventh. So exact science? Uh, no – until now. ESPN Stats & Info has created an NBA Draft Projection Model that puts an end, once and for all, to the uncertainty around which college player will succeed and which will fail, and by what proportions. Says ESPN: “The projection model calculates the likelihood of a player to fall into one of four categories: Superstar, Starter, Role Player and Bust. There are generally one superstar, 10 starters and 25 role players who come out of each draft class.” It’s based, says ESPN, on “a statistical plus/ minus [SPM], an estimate of a player’s contribution to his team’s point differential per 100 possessions. An SPM of zero is considered league average (weighted for minutes) and J U N E 2 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Thereafter, according to ESPN, Towns has a 13.5 percent chance at Superstardom and Okafor, 5.9. However, Louisville’s own D’Angelo Russell has a 15.2 percent shot at stardom, but also a 40.9 percent chance of being a bust.

tibia – lower leg. I truly think Andrew Harrison will be some lucky team’s early Christmas present. (And since we can’t talk about one without the other, I’m mystified by Aaron’s poor performances in the tryouts. Pressure never fazed the coolest Cat before.) Finally, I think analysts who keep saying Devin Booker is just a shooter with limited athleticism or can’t play off the dribble simply did not watch Kentucky play last season. Maybe they went to the restroom when the Blue Platoon came in. (Or was it the White Platoon?) VT

I don’t get it either. But it will play out exactly as ESPN has charted it – or it won’t. Just like always. Just like the very first Number One in 1947: Clifton McNeeley from UTEP. He never played a game. (Future Hall of Famers Harry Gallatin, Andy Phillip and Jim Pollard were chosen 13th, 31st and 32nd.) Back in the day, teams would often pick players who’d played their college ball nearby to assure the local fan interest would carry over. (There was even something called a territorial draft right, which allowed a team to claim a player who had played with a local college.) Local interest wasn’t the only factor. With rudimentary scouting and very little national TV, the pro teams simply knew the local players better. It hadn’t advanced much 20 years later. In 1967, the New York Knicks picked Walt Frazier out of Southern Illinois University only because they got to see him during the NIT in Madison Square Garden that spring. Fortuitous. But in the age of meta data, nothing is left to fortuity. So many tryouts, interviews, combines and computerized projections have made mistakes vanish. Bad picks are prehistory. Like way back when Cleveland, picking first, drafted Anthony Bennett out of UNLV and bypassed Victor Oladipo of Indiana and Michael Carter-Williams of Syracuse – way back, two years ago!

WKU Anticipates More Success The "Toppers on Tour" hit town again earlier this week. The Western Kentucky Alumni Association hosted an event with WKU head coaches and athletic director Todd Stewart at Hunting Creek Country Club. WKU head football coach Jeff Brohm is getting ready to kick off his second season as the Toppers boss. WKU finished up the 2014 season with a pair of thrilling wins, including a 49-48 win over Central Michigan in the Bahamas Bowl in December. WKU won its final five games to finish 8-5. They kick off the 2015 campaign at Vanderbilt on Thursday, September 3, at 8 p.m. on the SEC Network. Bahamas for four or five days. Our coaches, players, fans had a tremendous time and felt good going into the fourth quarter with a big lead, 49-14, and then we made it exciting for everybody and had to stop It’s a great event for us. We have them on a two-point conversion. I a huge fan base here in Louisville, Taylor’s 10 was not too thrilled for a while, but we’re definitely proud to come here then you go and watch the Packers and get around them and thank KENT lose in the playoffs like that. Worse them for all they do for us. We’re things have happened. It makes us TAYLOR excited. Louisville is a big part of WAVE3 Sports hungry. We know we have numerour fan base at Western.

to make it work with as many quarterbacks as he has now at Louisville?

With all the exposure the program has received in the last few years, what is the payoff ?

How fun is it to be part of an offense that puts up the kinds of numbers like your offense did last season?

What does the turnout and the response that you get in Louisville say about the support for Western Kentucky here?

We feel good, we’re in a good position right now. We’re in Conference USA; it’ll be our second year, which gives us much more exposure, much more opportunity to be on the big stage, play good opponents. I think our fan base likes that. We really feel like Louisville, about 15 years ago, was in about the same position, as far as entering Conference USA. We think that if we can continue to improve, get better and schedule good non-conference opponents and make it exciting for our fans, they’ll come back and definitely we’ll expand that fan base. Just a few years ago, the program had the nation’s longest losing streak and to be here now, how has it happened so fast? We’re excited where we are. We have some great players on our team that work hard; they love the game of football; they love playing for Western. They have a little bit of a chip on their shoulder. They think that they have all been overlooked, and they’re excited about the schedule that we have. We try to make it fun. We try to make it exciting, and hopefully, this year we can do that again. How crazy was that finish in the Bahamas Bowl from your vantage point? We had a ton of fun. We got to be in the J U N E 2 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

This season, with some new talent and in year two of your tenure as the head coach, what are the expectations? We feel like we have a hungry football team that wants to win. We had a good finish to the season, so we have some momentum. Our guys do have some confidence. I think we understand what it takes to win, and now, we’ve got to go out and prove it this year. You open on National TV at Vanderbilt. How will that non-conference slate help build the brand? Two SEC opponents – at Vandy and at LSU – and a Big Ten opponent – at Indiana – in the non-conference, and then our conference schedule, which is Marshall, Louisiana Tech, Middle Tennessee and on down the line. Very good, competitive schedule for us. There is not any opponent that we can take lightly and have a chance to win, but we’ll have a chance in each and every game. Is there any shot that UK could be back on the schedule any time soon? We were fortunate enough to play them a couple of years ago, and things turned out our way. Obviously, we’d love to play Louisville and Kentucky every year if we could. We’ll definitely try and do that in the future. As well as you know Bobby Petrino and his system, how does he manage

He’s an outstanding proven coach. He’s a winner. He knows how to get it done. If you want your son to go somewhere and learn how to be a hard-nosed football player and learn to be tough and learn to be successful on the football field and in life afterwards, you go play for Coach Petrino. He knows how to win, obviously, his defense had a tremendous year with Coach Grantham running it, and his offense is going to get better and better every year. He has a lot of quarterbacks, and I’m sure they’ll all be ready to play. I see them having a tremendous year.

When you’re an offensive guy, you like to make things exciting; you like to make it fun. Really, your players like to play in that type of offense in that manner. From our standpoint, we try to go at a fast tempo; we try to run the no huddle. We try to do that every day in practice where our players get a chance to experience that. We play a lot of guys, so everyone feels apart of it on the team, so that makes them work even harder. VT

Horse Sense JOHN ASHER

Makeshift shrines popped up throughout New England, constructed by fans compelled to find some way to physically share that seemingly-impossible championship with loved ones that had passed, many of them gone for decades. Lovers of Thoroughbred racing have some knowledge of that sentiment and the explosion of emotions that occur in a breakthrough moment. It happened at Belmont Park nearly three weeks ago when Zayat Racing Stable’s American Pharoah halted racing’s long Triple Crown drought with a dominant sweep of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes. And like so many Red Sox admirers, American Pharoah’s Triple Crown triumph has been accompanied by thoughts of absent friends. Three, in particular, lead that parade. One is Dan Farley, a friend who spent a good chunk of his life covering the Kentucky Derby and the sport at the Blood-Horse, Thoroughbred Times and, for 25 years, London’s Racing Post.

Another close to heart and mind in recent days is Jim Bolus, the greatest of all Kentucky Derby historians and a writer for the Courier-Journal for more than two decades.

Jim’s last published work was a “Final Turn” column in the Blood-Horse in which he described the joy of witnessing Silver Charm’s gutty Derby win over Captain Bodgit. Bolus also noted how longtime Louisville Times and Courier-Journal columnist Mike Barry would have loved Baffert. At the time, the future Hall of Fame trainer was known as much for his wisecracking charm as for his obvious ability to train a racehorse. “Mike would have loved the actual race most of all,” Bolus wrote. “He liked nothing better than a great horse race, and that’s what we were privileged to see at the 1997 Derby.”

We shared at least two other things: an abiding love for racing and an appreciation for the near-redemptive joy of cashing in a winning mutuel ticket. We cut a few classes for journeys north and east to Churchill Downs and Keeneland, and I remain somewhat thankful that Kentucky Downs and its OTB in nearby Franklin did not exist during our matriculation on The Hill. Jeff ’s life ended at age 55 after a long battle with cancer in his adopted hometown on March 10. Taking a cue from Red Sox fans, this column will serve as my shrine to these friends and so many others whose lives have joyfully intersected with mine through racing and the Derby. In his final Blood-Horse piece, Bolus recalled a lesson offered by Daily Racing Form icon Joe Hirsch: “You learn something from every Derby.”

Days after he penned those words, and four days before Silver Charm’s similarly dramatic victory in the Preakness, Jim collapsed and died following an evening jog. He was 54.

The Silver Charm Derby was Jim’s 38th Run for the Roses, and he shared in his last published words a thought we could all keep in our respective back pockets – especially following a magical spring classic season he would have undoubtedly loved.

The third absent friend was Jeff “Crawdog” Crawford, a radio personality in Huntington, West Virginia and a lifelong friend from time shared as WKU classmates and radio teammates at Bowling Green’s WBGN-AM.

“One final lesson that I learned from this Derby was when we do witness such a thrilling race, when we do see two gallant runners battling it out to the finish, we should appreciate it. … It can’t get much better than that.” VT

While I cannot pinpoint exactly when we met, I know he walked with assistance through the stable area when we did so. We never discussed his ailment, as he was too busy talking about his passions: basketball, racing, the Indiana University Hoosiers, barbecue joints and family (not necessarily in that order) to focus on anything else. Dan Farley died on Kentucky Oaks Day, passing one day after he had collapsed in the Virginia home he and his amazing wife, Betsy, had shared. We had spoken by phone hours earlier, moments for which I will be forever grateful. While driving home from the Derby’s draw for post positions, I had an urge to call Dan. It was terrific conversation and, from my vantage point in my car parked in a mall parking lot, I told him how impressed I had been by a weekend workout by American Pharoah and expressed my conviction that he would not lose on Saturday. During a memorial service last week in Lexington, I finally learned that Dan’s health challenge had been FacioScapuloHumeral Muscular Dystrophy, one of the most prevalent forms of MS.

knows the team has a long way to go. “It’s a good start," Baxter said. “But we still have so many people who have not experienced a game. Once they do, we know the crowds will continue to grow.” While City has committed to being a part of the sports scene in Louisville, they have also focused on becoming a true community partner as well. “We attend as many events as our schedule will allow,” Baxter said. “We want this team to be an accessible and positive example to the kids in Kentucky and Indiana.” Such events include YMCA Healthy Kids Days and Big Brothers Big Sisters Bowl for Kids’ Sake. The recent record crowds have had an impact on the players. Large noisy home crowds present a distinct advantage for the team on the field and also create a great recruiting tool for head coach James O’Connor as he looks to fill roster spots with the best talent. When a player puts on the Louisville colors, he knows that he will hit the pitch to one of the best crowds in the USL and be reminded that his city has his back.

It is something I don’t take lightly.” When asked about his relationship with Coach Driskell, he says, “He is just an amazing mentor and Christian person. He always instilled those values. He was tough with discipline, but all for the better for us. He is someone I would come back and talk to about things. We still talk baseball a lot.”

In finishing his second season as head coach, Garrity has racked up 46 wins and has kept Male as one of the top baseball programs in the seventh region. As a young coach, he is surrounded by seasoned coaches who have worked with him in keeping the program top-notch. He says, “I have been blessed with great assistant coaches. We’ve been able to have consistency on the staff. I think that is huge, especially for someone like myself, who is young. To have those guys with baseball experience is really vital.”

Male High School has been known for always maintaining school spirit and tradition, and its baseball program is no exception. The program has been highly suc-

Apart from learning from the veteran assistant coaches, Garrity has learned another nuance in coaching: the necessity of leading by example.

“What I really focused on was the team and myself having more energy. I knew I had to bring the competitiveness and fire and energy too if that’s what I wanted from my team. I think the more that you can connect with a kid, even if it is talking with them about things that are going on, the more kids see that, the more they respect [you], and it builds team chemistry between player and coach.” Garrity looks forward to more athletic success but always keeps in mind the well-roundedness of his players. “Success on the field is ultimately important, but if you focus more on the kids and make them better through making sure they are great students and people and teaching them how to be leaders, you will continue to have people who want to be a part of the program,” he argues. “You have to show and teach them how to be leaders. Focusing on those things to build better kids and better people will bring a positive influence in the long run.” VT

Herbert is a favorite among the was presented to the audience by participants at the Kentucky State Maria Hampton. Fair Horse Show. Not because he rides but because he moves most of his store to the Crown Plaza Hotel beside the main entrance to the Fairgrounds. This way, the out of town horse ladies going to the show don’t have far to travel to update their wardrobes for the fancy parties they attend. Herbert has impeccable taste. Over the years, many ladies have come to him with a dress or outfit they are going to wear to a special occasion and say “will you do the rest to make me look good?” He will select the right shoes, handbags and jewelry that all go together. His clients come back a few days later and are thrilled with what he has selected. Last week, it was time for his longtime and dear friend Margie Baker to celebrate a special birthday of Herbert’s. Like Herbert, Margie exudes love and kindness but was having a hard time pulling it off since Herbert isn’t crazy about being the center of attention. He likes parties, just not being the reason to have one. So she did dinner for six at Anoosh Bistro and invited Bert Klein, Herbert’s sister Cheryl and yours truly with husband Brad. The food was grand, conversation non-stop and laughter, at times, riotous.

Brown began his official duties as the dean on June 1 of this year, but he has served as an instructor at Bellarmine since 2000. He also served as a practicing attorney at Bingham Greenebaum Doll LLP, where he concentrated on emerging and international business.

He has a bachelor’s degree in international studies from the University of Louisville, where he also earned his law degree, a master’s degree in community development and an MBA. Additionally, he earned a master’s degree from Jochi University in Tokyo and two Ph.D.s, one from the University of Cambridge and the other from the London School of Economics and Political Science. He holds an advanced accounting certificate from Bellarmine University. He has been a busy boy. In addition he is the author of 20 books on transactions related topics including financing startup businesses, purchasing businesses and doing business globally. He has been an officer or has served on the boards of the U.S. State Department National Council for International Visitors/Global Ties, the American Bar Association’s International Section (as programs officer) and World Affairs Council of Kentucky and Southern Indiana.

DEAR ABBY: One of my friends who I work with is getting married this summer. She recently asked me for my address and, since we also went to school together, asked me to give her a few other friends' addresses as well. So imagine my surprise when my friends all received invitations to her wedding in the mail and I did not. I think it's possible that my invitation legitimately was lost in the mail or it may have been an honest oversight. However, I realize it's also possible that she wants to keep her wedding small and decided against inviting me. How do I politely ask if I'm invited to her wed-

DEAR ABBY: Our married son and two young children live in Kurdistan, Iraq. They are volunteering for a charity that helps Syrian refugees. While we admire their noble efforts, we struggle with the daily sacrifices this brings to our whole family. We work full time and could save up to visit them, but because we are not comfortable with

their choice to live in this dangerous part of the world, we continue to refuse their invitation. What do you advise? Are we being self-centered? -- SO FAR AWAY DEAR SO FAR AWAY: No, you are being rational and self-protective. Not only do I not think you are self-centered, I’m suggesting you keep them in your prayers and use Skype or video chatting to stay in contact. ••• DEAR ABBY: Recently a friend invited me to a sex toy party. The saleswoman hosting the event is a distant acquaintance. What is the most polite way to ask her if she has informed her family of her profession? Is it OK to attend if she hasn’t told her relatives she sells sex products? If I refuse her invitation, would it be polite to enclose an order for some of her products? I prefer to buy from a reputable saleswoman rather than some anonymous website. -- AWKWARD IN ILLINOIS DEAR AWKWARD: I don’t think it would be appropriate to ask your hostess whether she has informed her family about her career, although I suspect she has made them aware of it. And if you prefer to decline the invitation, I’m sure enclosing an order for her products would be fine with her – and possibly the start of an ongoing business relationship. ••• DEAR ABBY: I’m only 18. I know I have a lot to learn in life, but I need help. I’m madly in love with a guy who is “bipolar” about our relationship. One day he loves me and the next he doesn’t. Today, he said he needed some time alone because we’ve been together 24/7. I got all mad and started to go crazy. He’s not breaking up with me. I know he needs space, but I can’t bring myself to let him have it. I don’t want to lose him. Please help me figure out a way to stay with him. -- GOT A GOOD ONE IN MISSOURI DEAR GOT A GOOD ONE: If you want to keep your boyfriend, let him have his freedom. The harder you try to hang onto him, the more he will want to get away. And by the way, while he’s enjoying his “space,” you should do exactly the same thing he is doing. If you isolate yourself, you will only become depressed, insecure and clingy, none of which are attractive traits. ••• Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Katie Meinhart I manage and buy for Apricot Lane Boutique in Westport Village; I think it’s every girl’s dream job. I get to buy clothes and play dress up every day. It’s just a lot of fun to make people feel better with their wardrobe and everything else. At Apricot Lane everything’s under $100, so we’re not that stuffy, high-end boutique atmosphere that people think is out there. We really try to keep it for moms and daughters and pretty much any woman and any age. And we have a lot of fun in there, so we want you to have fun with us. My own wardrobe is a mix of everything. There’s a little bit of boho and a little bit of preppy and definitely your classic pieces that you have to have. And a lot of denim. When I shop for my home, I love Urban Farmhouse Market on Frankfort Avenue. For clothing, I love Bermuda Highway in NuLu; they have some really different and fun stuff that you can’t necessarily find in the East End, and I love consignment stores. We’re actually getting ready to shop for fall at Market. We’re going to do a lot of denim and a lot of fringe. Any Aztec or western kind of prints that are out there. A lot of leather accessories. Tassel jewelry is really in. Anything kind of bohemian. Stuff that you saw back in the 70s is really back.

SPOTLIGHT World Championship Voyageur Canoe Race

f you’re looking for a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon, then be sure to check out Dare to Care’s World Championship Voyageur Canoe Race on July 11. Not only will this event feature exciting canoe races, delicious food and live music but it also benefits Dare to Care Food Bank, one of Louisville’s main resources in the fight against hunger. Anyone can take part in this upcoming event, so whether you are a family looking for a fun afternoon or a local business eager for a unique team-building experience, this event is for you. For more information, check out what race organizer Remy Kenney has to say about this summer’s event. Tell us about the “World Championship Voyageur Canoe Race.” When and where will it take place? The World Championship Voyageur Canoe Race presented by Yum! Brands and COURTESY PHOTO

the Louisville Mayor’s Office is happening Saturday, July 11, at Waterfront Park. Teams of 10 compete in a voyageur canoe race on the Ohio River starting at the Big Four Bridge and ending back at Waterfront Park. It is a great day on the water focused on team-building, having fun and raising money for Dare to Care! We will have a beer tent, food and a band on site creating a festival-type atmosphere. Mayor Fischer helps host the day and competes with his team as well.

Does this event benefit Dare to Care? If so, how? Yes, 100 percent of the proceeds from the event benefit Dare to Care Food Bank. Last year we raised enough money to provide 280,000 meals for hungry families in our community. The event also helps us raise awareness and unite the community around the issue of hunger. How can people get involved? Is it too late for a team to sign up?

It is not too late to sign up and join the fun! Teams can sign up on our website voyageurwc.com or email me at remy@ W O R L D C H A M P I O N S H I P daretocare.org.

UR VOYAGE C A N O E R A C E Is this event solely for athletes or can anyone get involved? Anyone can paddle with us! Most of the participants have zero paddling experience so we offer a team practice the Thursday before the event to get everyone pumped up for the race.

What do teams receive if they sign up for a gold or silver package?

Silver Paddle Sponsors receive one boat (10 paddlers) in the race, a flag with their company’s logo and recognition on Dare to Care’s social media outlets.

After mixing and matching some of these outfits I’ve put together, I found that the key to making a summer outfit fun and unique is the accessories you pair with the outfits. All the looks shown here can be found in local stores.

Me Gusta Me Gusta

ose Monasterio thinks the traditional Mexican-American restaurant model “isn’t working anymore.” At least not for him. And he might be right.

Next, we sampled the papas huancaina, potatoes dressed with a traditional Peruvian sauce made from eggs, oil, yellow pepper, queso fresco, crackers, salt, and pepper. Just in case you’re counting on me to compare it to something, it’s a little like hollandaise, but with slightly more kick.

One of my favorites from among the feast that Monasterio served up was the

Keperi al horno, a Bolivian brisket marinated in cumin, citrus juices and soy sauce. This hearty, slow-cooked dish is intensely flavorful as well as tender and boneless. The “creamy cheesy rice” served on the side was strongly reminiscent of the cheese grits I thrived on in Georgia. I also loved the Peruvian ceviche, fresh tilapia cold cured in lime juice and dressed up with chopped raw vegetables. And I would be remiss if I did not also praise the green mussels topped with a salsa that includes Bolivian corn. Me Gusta is doing a lot with plantains. The fried plantains served on the side of our brisket were surprisingly sweet, much sweeter than the fried plantains I’ve eaten elsewhere. “They’re always sweet here,” Monasterio says. The secret, he explains, is in making sure they are truly ripe before putting them in the fryer. Less sweet are the tostones, another side dish made with green plaintains that are mashed, shaped into small pancakes, and fried. I also greatly enjoyed the arroz con mariscos, which translates to “rice with seafood.” If you’ve been jonesing for paella, this is the answer: extremely savory rice packed with shrimp, calamari, octopus, and black mussels. Dessert was rice pudding, a traditional stovetop recipe that calls for boiled rice, evaporated milk and cinnamon. Our second dessert was a concoction of vanilla flan and chocolate cake, billed on the menu as “half brownie,

Monasterio works long hours, and he’s sensitive to the risks of a restaurant venture, especially in a high-rent district. But he still insists that he is living the American dream. He was once a civil engineer in Bolivia but fled the socialist regime that he claims was oppressive to the middle class.

A quick tip: If you want to really dig into the South American delicacies at Me Gusta, go for dinner or on a weekend. The restaurant serves traditional Mexican food at lunch — partly because of a loyal lunch crowd that discovered the restaurant under its previous name and management. Monasterio says he is in the process of making lunch more Latin, but he doesn’t want to alienate his lunch customers with an overnight change.

He came here with only a few thousand dollars in his pocket. He learned all about Mexican cuisine while working for Rosa Mexicana, an American chain of upscale Mexican restaurants. You can see Rosa influences here and there at Me Gusta: the volcanic rock serving bowl in which the guacamole is presented and the bright Caribbean colors. He worked his way up the corporate ladder at Rosa, but the real American dream is owning your own restaurant, right? So when he learned that Sol Aztecas was closing, he saw the potential to do something new. And that’s what Me Gusta is all about. The restaurant’s name means “I like it” and actually was inspired by the “like” option on Facebook. VT

I know I will be back on a Saturday or Sunday for one of the specialties served only on weekends. I’ve got my eye on the Parrillada Argentina, a feast of five grilled meats: pork chop, skirt steak, chicken, Hispanic sausage and heart beef that is served with white rice, plantains and yucca con mojo. Yucca is a South American root vegetable, and mojo is a sauce made with onion, garlic, lime, citrus and olive oil.

Me Gusta, Latin Kitchen & Bar, a genuine Latin American cuisine experience, located on the historic Whiskey Row in Louisville, KY. Born from the desire to bring a whole new concept to Louisville, co-owner José “Pepe” Monasterio created Me Gusta to inject his beloved Latin American heritage into the community.

Born and raised in Bolivia, and having traveled across South America, Pepe knows the sights, sounds, and tastes of Latin America. He’s proud to bring that flavor to you with dishes from Bolivia, Peru, Cuba, Puerto Rico, Argentina, Brazil, and of course, Mexico. He even shares the best selection of Tropical drinks from those places, and a homemade recipe for

Enough to Make You Scream

“In 1990, when we took over the got over my fear of ridpark, there were five cottonwoods that ing rollercoasters at Kengave a little bit of protection from the tucky Kingdom the year sun,” says Mulcahy. “Other than that, that T2 opened. I was dared there wasn’t a tree to be found, and to the point of surrender to those cottonwoods were on their last ride the big purple monstrosleg as well.” Mulcahy reflected on the Out & About reopening of Kentucky Kingdom last ity by a friend. This led to a year, an event some of the original line-waiting process of dread, BENNETT followed by one of my favor- DUCKWORTH workers of the park attended. “Many of them showed up on the first day, ite experiences of the sumnow with their own kids in tow. And mer, which had to be repeated several while we’re talking, one would point to a tree and times that day. say, ‘Little Johnny, I’ve got to tell you something… I planted that tree back in 1990!’”

Since then, I try not to let a year go by without getting that kind of adrenaline fix. Last week, I had the pleasure of riding Kentucky Kingdom’s newest coaster, Lightening Run – a short ride that achieves everything necessary for a satisfying rush. “We had not seen a new coaster in this market for about seventeen years,” says Kentucky Kingdom Director of Marketing and Communications John Mulcahy of this relatively new attraction. The ride already ranks number 25 in the world for steel coasters according to a poll in Amusement Today (an amusement park trade journal). They’ve also unveiled a ride this year, called Cyclos, a spinning, swinging pendulum, which is said to light up beautifully at night. I mentioned to Mulcahy, who has been with the park for 10 years that when my friend and I took a ride on the Fear Fall – the park’s latest big drop ride – it dawned on us how much foliage now provides beauty and shade to the area. J U N E 2 5 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

It’s strange to think that a place that came about during my lifetime already has an “I planted this tree” story. It’s an element of age, which complements the park’s positive revitalization. I wouldn’t have imagined this place to achieve this kind of atmosphere during my late teens, which was the Six Flags era and also when I stopped going. “…It had started to turn a little bit. The park wasn’t as bright and cheery,” says Mulcahy. “You have to have leadership and motivation … The big difference I think you’ll see with the Kingdom is attributed to the fact that Ed Hart and the rest of the management team… all live here in Louisville. So you see us out in the park, you see us out in the community and believe me … If people feel like they know you, they’re not beyond approaching you with what they like and what they don’t like.” Last year’s expansion of Hurricane Bay provided more lounging area among newer water rides, like the terrifying Deep Water Dive, and this year,

the entire park is seeing the addition of new dining options. There are certainly funnel cakes, corn dogs, etc., but it should be stressed that food with more thought is now available as well. “We have the staples, but people come to the park and they generally expect everything to be served on a stick,” says Mulcahy. “We have Aaron Banks. Aaron comes to us from, not only Carowinds – which is a wonderful theme park down in the Carolinas – but he also spends some time in the catering department at Churchill Downs, and he is our executive chef … This year, with the support of park management, he gave birth to a concept that he has called ‘Tacos Tequila’ … It is a gourmet Tex-Mex menu that is absolutely out of this world.” Given the nice ingredients, the prices are fair, but committed visitors get a very good deal. “Our season pass holders get a 20 percent discount off of food [and] merchandise,” Mulcahy proudly states with customer satisfaction in mind. “Our pricing on food is very competitive. It’s not what you want to call airport pricing.” I was also delighted to take a break during my visit and enjoy a Fat Tire, among other nice options from independent domestic breweries. A fun shaky ride on the park’s oldest coaster (the wooden Thunder Run) was in order after that. However, gazing at the now bright red T2 – renamed T3 – was a heavy dose of nostalgia for me. “It was a shame to see it last year, of course,” says Mulcahy of this classic ride. “It was a charcoal gray. We’re hopefully days away from reintroducing that ride as well.” VT For a vast wealth of information on Kentucky Kingdom, including discount online ticket sales, visit kentuckykingdom.com.

sold as an Oriental rug. “All wools are not equal,” she says. “And the highest-quality rugs are hand-knotted.” Hand-knotted is a precise and time-consuming process. It’s not unheard of for a 12-by-15foot rug with an intricate pattern to take over a year to produce. They can be more costly, but many of these rugs become valuable collectibles. Hand-tufted rugs are handmade but don’t contain individual knots, so they don’t take as long to make and are less-expensive. Machine-made rugs are produced on computerized power looms and often contain synthetic fibers – such as polypropylene, nylon, polyW W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • J U N E 2 5 , 2 0 1 5

Don’t worry, though, they’re durable. “The higher-quality wools contain lanolin, which acts as a natural Scotchgard. Liquid spills will bead up and need only to be blotted.” It’s not an insignificant investment. “Prices are all over the place,” she says, “but our 8-by-10s range from $2,000 to $12,000, which I think is the sweet spot for the Louisville market.” That’s not to say an antique rug (officially, 80 years old or more) couldn’t cost $60,000. Working with wholesalers and dealers, Valdez can find antique rugs for her customers and can also order custom-made rugs if there’s nothing in her showroom or catalogs that meets the buyer’s needs.

play in the space.”

“I don’t sell many $15,000-$20,000 rugs, but I can get them,” she says. “I have access to everything.” Valdez will often go to a customer’s home to do an appraisal of what might work. She does not charge for these site visits. “I’m eager to make it as easy as possible,” she says. “In the space, you can see the customer’s taste in colors, fabrics and patterns. You can help coordinate the new rug with existing furniture. And you can see external things, like the size of the room, the height of the ceiling, how the room is used and what kinds of natural light

In a new home with the furniture not yet in place, some of those factors become trickier. But Valdez loves that process, she says, because “design of a room should start from the ground up. The floor covering is the one piece in the room that has the most impact. I’ll ask the customer what she envisions and how she’s going to use the room. What feeling does she want in the room? Tranquil, cozy, bright, lively, refined? And what kinds of patterns does she want, traditional or transitional.” Valdez explains that a “traditional” Oriental rug has all the flourishes, scrolls and medallions most people think of. A “transitional” rug is nei-

ther modern nor contemporary, but it has more geometric patterns than floral, and often without a border. Most of all, she emphasizes that there are no wrong choices. “It must reflect the homeowner, not me. She’ll be looking at this rug every day; it should be something she just loves to see. It’s no different than a painting on a wall. Whatever you pick, just love it.” Valdez has a fairly simple test. “When I put the rug down, if the customer thinks about whether it’s the right rug, it’s not the right rug. You should know right away. It’s that personal.” VT Anabel’s Oriental Rugs is at 3740 Frankfort Ave., 45202; 502.895.9595. Her web site is anabelsorientalrugs.com.

F R I DAY, J U N E 2 6 MURDER AT THE CULBERTSON MANSION! It is time again for the Friends of Culbertson Mansion’s annual Funeral Murder Mystery Dinner. This Murder Mystery takes place in 1892 with the death of William S. Culbertson. As people pay their last respects at Mr. Culbertson’s wake, there is great speculation about “who will inherit what” from one of the richest men in Indiana. Little did anyone know that lawsuits would be filed after the reading of his last will and testament, and as tempers flare, greed can always lead to murder. Performance dates are Friday June 26 and Saturday June 27 at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $25 and include dinner. Advance payment and reservations are required and are suggested to be made well in advance as the event will sell out. Call 812.944.9600 to purchase tickets.

PUZZLES

pets of the week Jade is a six-year-old German Shepherd, Rottweiler mix. She came here from another shelter, but somewhere along the way she learned to love affection, like hugs and belly-rubs. She is also good on a leash, knows some commands and is house-trained. Jade loves people so much that she might be best as your only pet. Jade is spayed, microchipped and up-to-date on shots. Jade is available at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive. Meet Patches, a seven-year-old orange and white colored kitty. Patches is a very laid back kitty. He enjoys lying in the window and watching the birds. Patches doesn’t have much interest in toys anymore. But, he still loves to snuggle with you. Patches is still waiting for a new family to come welcome him home. He gets along well with the other kitties here, so he wouldn’t mind if he had brothers or sisters. Could Patches be the newest addition to your family? He is neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on his vaccines. Patches is available at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive.
