mith was a bartender and manager at Shenanigans on Norris Place in 2010 when she first started the dialogue of potentially purchasing the Dairy Kastle enterprise: “The former owner, George Hayden, was a customer of mine at Shenanigans, and I approached him and said, you know, ‘Hey, would you be interested in selling?’ and he said, ‘Not yet!’ But when he finally was interested, he came to me and asked if I was still interested in buying – and I was.” Smith had been a bartender for 15 years but knew she was a capable manager. Moreover, she liked managing – she liked being able to implement her own ideas and see them executed. Her knack for leadership led her to the ultimate conclusion of wanting to own her own business, but as far as what that business would be, it was years before she finally realized what the right fit for her would be. “I thought this business was the right size for me – I thought it was a size I could manage,” she recounts. “And also, it’s ice cream, and I thought moving from alcohol to ice cream was a good move!” Now, four years later, Smith looks back on the decision to buy Dairy Kastle from Hayden as one of the best decisions she’s ever made and furthermore feels affirmed it was exactly the right thing for her

to do at that point in her life. “At 35, I was ready for more responsibility and ready to control and manage my own business and environment,” she relates. “I lucked out. Not only is Dairy Kastle a manageable size for my first foray as a business owner, but it is a great business. Ice cream and chili dogs are fantastic! The customers are almost always in good moods as are the employees. We have fun at our jobs and love doing it.” Part of that love for her job comes from the longstanding community adoration for Dairy Kastle. Smith didn’t need to work to win over customers’ taste buds – that part was already done for her. Instead, she had to work to maintain the Dairy Kastle status quo

while making logical and sometimes creative updates. “We walked in and kept it the way it was – especially for the first year,” she emphasizes. “We said, ‘George, how do you run things?’ He told me, and we did it all the same. The employees, the ones who had been here for years, were a great help in showing us how to do things, and then after that first season, we started to make some changes. Except for the veggie chili dogs – we did that the first year.” Indeed, one of the most acclaimed changes the team has made has been the introduction of vegan and vegetarian items to the Dairy Kastle menu. For its vegan customers, Dairy Kastle currently boasts pineapple soft serve, strawberry soft

serve, chili dogs and brats in addition to a myriad of shake creations. Of course, they also offer the traditional versions of brats and dogs, but Smith and Vitale insist that it’s important to them to offer something for everyone, Smith especially, as she’s vegetarian herself. Other changes included bringing in parking bumpers and flower pots to prevent cars from cutting through the Dairy Kastle lot to skip the traffic light, which both Smith and Vitale attest to be of great importance as far as safety is concerned. But perhaps what they’re most proud of is how they were able to bring customer service to the forefront. “Damian calls it ‘the best walk-up experience in Louisville,’” Smith describes. “We want the experience to be good … We realize people stand in line, and they’re great – they’re fantastic customers. People talk, they chat together, and it’s a real experience. And we wanted to make sure the customer service was a top priority. The quality of our product is great, so I’m not really worried about that part of it. It’s about making it an experience.”

ferent kinds of people here. It’s just one after another, and everybody’s here for ice cream. They’re not here to talk about politics – it’s a very open and inviting place for people to come where they’re not going to feel threatened or anything.” There’s also a charitable component to the business; when Hayden owned the company, he made frequent donations to Home of the Innocents, and Smith and Vitale have now expanded that scope of giving. “We split the tips that people give,” Smith explains. “We split them between the employees, the Kentucky Humane Society and Home of the Innocents. And with letting people know what we’re doing, we’ve increased donations. It used to just go to Home of the Innocents, and I was worried that if we split it, then no one would get very much – but we’ve been able to give even more.”

Possibly from their involvement with the Humane Society and general love for animals, Smith says that Dairy Kastle has seen a significant growth in its animal clientele as well, remarking that just a few nights prior, a customer brought a pet pig out for ice cream. Usually though, it’s And clearly, they’re doing something dogs they serve, and Dairy Kastle actually right as you can drive by Dairy Kastle at features the Milk-Bone Sundae for its ca7 p.m. on a Sunday and see a line that nine customers. wraps around the building.

“If you’d asked me seven years ago what I’d be doing, I never could have imagined it, but this has been fantastic,” he maintains. “We have so much fun with our employees – we want them to have fun, making it fun for our customers, and it’s easy when it’s all about ice cream to have fun with people and interact with them.” Smith agrees: “I like making people happy. It makes me smile to see people happy.” But Smith notes that it’s about more than the day-to-day; it’s about carrying on the tradition of Dairy Kastle, about serving the name and the business to ensure it fosters the same positivity it has since Robert Humphrey opened the doors 40 years ago. “We have picked up a tradition at Dairy Kastle that has generations of customers,” she says. “From UofL students to international folks to families to business people to our wonderful neighborhood friends to all walks of life – our customers come for ice cream and to just hang out with each other. We have fun working to create a pleasant and comfortable walk-up experience. We feel our customers appreciate that, and it makes the job rewarding in many ways.” There’s no end in sight to Dairy Kastle. The season runs through the second Monday in October, but come the first Tuesday in March, they’ll be back at it, serving up the best soft serve around and giving anyone and everyone a comfortable place to meet, chat and just have a good time – which is exactly what Smith hopes to accomplish. Referring to a little girl walking by with the remnants of a vanilla cone dripping down her face, Smith smiles and says, “That little girl who’s so happy to be here – that’s why we’re here.” VT

A New View for Windows

f you were to take a drive through Louisville’s historic neighborhoods, you’d pass home after home where the windows are made of Fibrex. It’s a unique material that has the positive qualities of wood, vinyl and fiberglass, without their shortcomings.

off Blankenbaker Parkway, Renewal has 40 employees in Louisville.

Business WES KERRICK

You wouldn’t notice these Fibrex windows from a distance. Chances are you’d assume you were looking at the homes’ original windows. Fibrex is only made by one company: Renewal by Andersen, a manufacturer, seller and installer of replacement windows and doors. Made to order, they always fit perfectly, no matter how old or how one-of-a-kind the house. About 13 years ago, Louisville native Tim Helfrich and two partners reached an agreement with Bayport, Minnesota-based Renewal by Andersen to open an affiliate here. Helfrich had moved with his family to Iowa when his dad decided to relocate there to work for a window company. Later, they moved to Wisconsin for another window company. When it came time for Helfrich to go to college, he chose Bellarmine University, back in his hometown. He’s been here ever since. With a showroom at 11400 Bluegrass Pkwy. PHOTOS COURTESY OF RENEWAL BY ANDERSON

Instead of hiring subcontractors, the company sends its own certified master installers to every job. Their experience with the products and the installation process equips them to work efficiently, so it generally takes just one day to replace all the windows in a house.

That’s important – because nobody wants a hole in their house in the middle of the night or while no one’s home.

“In our day and age of dual-income households,” Helfrich says, “the people are really busy, and they leave for work at 8 in the morning and get home at 5:30. They come home to the work being done. I mean, it’s extremely accommodating.” Once the windows are in place, Renewal’s installers vacuum any dust they might’ve left and wash all the windows. Before they leave, they invite the homeowner to walk through and make sure everything is just right. If they’ve made any mistakes or if any of the windows have any defects, they’ll make note of it and make sure the problem is solved in a timely manner. Homeowners get plenty of time to pay for the work. Renewal lets them break it up over 48 months with no interest, or 84 months at 2.99 percent.

15

Once you contact Renewal by phone or online, the first step is a free in-home consultation. Someone will come out to your home and inspect all your windows. He or she will ask you lots of questions about the style and characteristics you’d like, explain all the options and then put together a proposal. If Renewal’s options aren’t exactly what you’re looking for, they’ll tell you the truth. “Ten times a year, you’ll tell somebody: ‘Here’s a really inexpensive product that maybe would be a better fit for you,’” Helfrich says. “And then they’ll call you two months later and say, ‘I just moved into another house, and I really appreciated your honesty and integrity the first time around so I want to buy your product.’” Renewal has a 4.9-out-of-5 star rating on Google, an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau and an A+ on Angie’s List. Among the 115 Renewal by Andersen affiliates in the U.S., the Louisville affiliate has won the award for highest customer satisfaction four out of the past five years. It also has the lowest cost of marketing of any Renewal seller in the nation. Helfrich says that’s because repeat customers and referrals account for 40 percent of business. “And that doesn’t happen overnight. That happens by honesty, integrity and customer satisfaction.” VT For more information or to schedule a consultation, call 502.242.8432 or visit renewalky.com. V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

Why Summer Reading Matters

W

BY TIFFANY L. BRIDGEWATER, Head of Lower School, Louisville Collegiate School

hen you think about summer, what comes to mind? The long awaited family vacation? A great cookout on a hot July day? Spending time by the pool a couple of times a week? While these are all worthwhile summer activities, I have one more activity that I’d like to add to your summer list – reading! Reading every day is vital for school-age children because it gives them opportunities to develop word recognition, comprehension and fluency simultaneously. According to a report by the National Institute of Education (NIE), a key predictor of positive reading development for young children is success when learning to read (1988). The report also suggests numerous opportunities and experiences with reading can lead to overall reading success in young children (1988). For early readers, developing strong comprehension and fluency skills is often challenging because they are also being asked to explain their thoughts about the reading in conjunction with the world around them. Because reading is developmental, it is important to remember the amount

of reading done outside of school is just as important as the amount of reading done during the academic school day. Ultimately, reading done outside of school is consistently related to gains in reading achievement for young readers hence the importance during the summer according to the NIE report (1988). Current research continues to support the best practice of stuTiffany L. Bridgewater dents reading every day, reading during the academic year as well as during the summer. For many parents, working with your child to find something really good to read during the summer can be a major highlight as well as a major challenge. As you begin to think about the best books for your son or daughter to read this summer, here are a few hints that might help make reading an engaging and fun activity for your child and the entire family:

GET TO KNOW YOUR LOCAL LIBRARIAN Talking to your local librarian is a good way to help your child find “just right books” (especially leveled readers for students in Kindergarten through third grade). BUILD READING TIME INTO YOUR PLANS FOR THE SUMMER

during the summer.

This way you can help students keep up with a “reading” routine. Make a commitment for at least 15-20 minutes a day

MAKE READING INTERACTIVE Whether you are reading or your child is doing the reading, make sure you talk about the story together. Reading does not have to be a solo activity. MAKE READING FUN The goal during the summer is to keep children reading. Do not push if your child resists reading a specific genre. Use the summer to explore different kinds of books. VISIT YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY Your local library is a great resource and a wonderful, relaxing place for you and your child to read. There are free programs at the Louisville Free Public Library through August 6. Programs are open to children – newborn through 12th grade – at all 18 library locations. Parents can obtain more information at lfpl.org/summerreading. ADDITIONAL READING RESOURCES There are many resources for parents and educators to use during the summer like Scholastic Books, scholastic.com/parents; Reading Rockets, readingrockets.org/calendar/summer; PBS Launching Readers, pbs.org/launchingreaders; Barnes & Noble, barnesandnoble.com; and Amazon, amazon.com. The most important tip for parents during the summer regarding reading is to read, read, read! VT

The owners, led by CEO Robert Young, will soon expand into other senior living facilities and begin the five-to-eight-year anticipated build-out of the campus with a focus on intergenerational activities. The campus includes a natural wooded area as well as a soccer field and open green spaces. A community walking trail, several sports fields and a rehab pool are planned as part of the development. Upon its completion, the campus will accommodate up to 550 senior adults. This will bring employment up to 300 from a current staff of 120.

This figure does not include grants or Kentucky Educational Excellence (KEES) scholarship money; these seniors received $5.9 million in KEES grants over four years. Scholarships were given to 905 students or 62 percent of the graduating class for a total of 3,026 scholarships.

n obituary for Pat Summitt talked about how she had initially struggled to develop a college basketball program at Tennessee – a women’s basketball program, no less – in “football country.”

Catnip

The wait continues under Mark Stoops, whose recruiting successes raise hopes that keep dying some time around Halloween. This year, those hopes took an early kick in the teeth with all the summer decommitments of Stoops’ promising high-schoolers.

If those were decommitments from John Calipari’s basketball program, Big Blue Nation would be collectively outSTEVE raged. But it’s more difficult to fall in love KAUFMAN It made me wonder: Why is Tenneswith a bunch of high school football playsee “football country”? And why, just ers you don’t know. north of the Tennessee border, is Kentucky so purely basketball? What causes these attitudes to take shape?

That’s not to say Chicago won’t go bonkers this fall if the Cubs finally snap a 108-year-old jinx. It’s not to say that New York doesn’t vibrate when the Mets or Yankees, Giants or Jets, Rangers or Islanders, win – as they often do. Buffalo loves its Bills. Atlanta thrills to the success of the Braves and Falcons (even the Hawks). Cincinnati supports the Bengals and, especially, its two college basketball programs. It’s just that there’s one sport in each metro area that really gets the pulse pounding. In Louisville, no surprise, it’s college basketball. And why not? UofL and UK have earned that devotion. Historically, and currently, two of the most successful programs in the NCAA. But why not football, too? I remember sitting at Churchill Downs in the spring of 2006, my first year here, and seeing the top of Cardinal Stadium in the near distance. I said to my stepson, “That’s a pretty impressive football facility for a basketball school.” He reminded me that Louisville football was rated 13th in the country for the upcoming season. (It would go 12-1, win the Orange Bowl and finish sixth nationally.) Kentucky has been waiting for a similar success – a success it has enjoyed from time to time – from Bear Bryant in the late ’40s and early ’50s to Fran Curci in the late ’70s to Hal Mummee, briefly, in the ’90s to Rich Brooks’ nice bowl run from 2006-2009.

23

So when a high school sophomore “commits” to Kentucky, we pretty much say, “Cool – glad Stoops got one.” And when that player decommits, we have trouble remembering exactly which one he was or what position he played or what year he was supposed to arrive. It just stinks to lose one. To lose four or five? The sky is falling – the program is crumbling! I guess Kentucky football is stuck with being a second choice for many young kids who, in their dreams, wear Alabama crimson or Michigan maize and blue or whatever color that Florida uniform is. Until, that is, Kentucky again creates a winning atmosphere – the one we’re all sure Stoops can create. But when? Which gets me to my final question: What exactly does that “commitment” commit anyone to anyway? Apparently, not much. So why bother? Why announce it? What does a 15-year-old kid understand about commitment or loyalty or his word? Especially when everyone he knows tells him the sun doesn’t rise until he’s ready to get up. As Thomas Beisner said the other day on KSTV, “My son is these kids’ age, and he changes his mind three times about what he’s going to eat for breakfast.” Please save me from the news the next time a 14-year-old from Georgia makes some kind of a promise about playing at Kentucky three years from now. Just let me know when he shows up. And remind me what his name is. VT V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • J U LY 7 , 2 0 1 6

Kentucky’s Recruits Oughta Be Committed


Sports

Looking at Leaving a Legacy Hall of Fame Tennessee women’s basketball Head Coach Pat Summitt lost her battle with early-onset dementia, Alzheimer’s type, last week. Summitt was 64. She won an NCAA Division I record 1,098 games and eight national championships with the Lady Vols. One of those wins came on November 12, 2010, a 63-50 win over UofL in the first game ever played in the KFC Yum! Center. Cards Head Coach Jeff Walz reflected on Summitt’s career and impact on the game and on his own team’s prospects for the 2016-17 season. How do you put into perspective what Pat Summitt meant to women’s basketball?

Could you be a Pat Summitt here? What did it mean for you to get Summitt and Tennessee in here for the first game in the KFC Yum! Center? When we found out that we were going to have the opportunity to open up and play the first game, we wanted to go out and find a marquee program. Tennessee was it. We called up Pat, Pat agreed to do it and then we were able to fill this place at 22,000. I still think today that we probably picked up 2,000 or 3,000 season ticket holders just from that one game. Tennessee played in Thompson-Boling Arena for a long time, and UofL at one time played in Cardinal Arena. How much did what they did make it possible for this program to play every home game in an arena like the KFC Yum! Center? There’s no question about it. We were in Freedom Hall doing well, and then to come down to the arena downtown and have Pat agree to come up and play – it spoke volumes for our program to where we were. We had to do our job of putting a product out there that people would want to come back and see. People often compare her to John Wooden. Is she without question one of the top J U LY 7 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

That’s my goal. I keep telling everybody that my goal is either retire here or get fired here, and I hope it’s the first. What have you seen from your current team this summer? Really excited about this group. Our incoming freshmen have been doing extremely well at their workouts. We’re allowed two hours a week, and they’ve really been excelling. Proud of where they are. Our returning players have done a great job of teaching them. Our struggles we had early in the year last year I think will come back to help us now because our returning players know what we did not do last summer, and now we’re not going to make that same mistake twice. Did Myisha Hines-Allen get a burst of confidence from the success that she had last season? She does, and at the same time, we’re trying to continually get her to understand that she has more in her. We’re trying to push her to get through that glass ceiling. She is right at the top and is a really special player, obviously, but she has a lot more in her that we’re trying to realize. When we can get through that, there is no doubt in my mind that she can be a first team All-American for us.

Asia Durr came in with so much hype and battled so many injuries last season. Are you seeing more of what you expected from her? I’m expecting it, yes. She says she feels much better. She is moving better. She had flashes of brilliance last year, but it was just that. She was sore and injured, and we had to get through a lot of hurdles to get her to be able to play – but it was something that she wanted to do. We wouldn’t have put her out there if there were any chance of her getting injured further, but now, she’s feeling great and we’re excited about her sophomore year. Can big freshmen come in and make an impact? I think they can. We’re excited about what they’re able to do. They’re both skilled. Ciera and Kylee come in from having played in high school programs that were successful. Especially Ciera. Ciera comes in having played at a high school program having won what they call the National Championship. I think they went 33-0, and she had other great players to play with. Her high school coach has done a great job down there at Duncanville to get those players prepared to be able to come in as freshmen and compete. Does Breanna Stewart leaving UConn feel like it evens the playing field a little? It’s nice. She is a special player. Not just a great player but a special person. I had the opportunity to be out there at USA basketball coaching when she was competing on different teams. It’s the way she goes about it. She just goes out and competes and plays 100 percent knowing that she’s the best player out there, but that’s not how she acts. I’m excited that she’s now moved on, and I’m sure there are a lot of coaches that are, except for one. VT PHOTO BY CHRISTINA M. O’CONNELL

High School Sports Report

“We knew what we were doing. We were playing a challenging schedule, looking at some younger kids and dealing with some injuries. As a coaching staff, we challenged ourselves and our kids to use what the community said as motivation.”

set by St. X, such triumph is to some degree expected. “You put pressure on yourself because of the success that we’ve had. We have to keep outworking people and keep the success. We don’t want to have 18 seniors on the roster one year, push for a championship and then have a rebuilding year after that. Ever since I have been coaching, we have had a good mix of seniors and juniors. So it’s not an internal pressure from administration, but for us, it is an expectation. We expect to be competitive, we expect to be in that regional championship every year and we really expect to get to Lexington.” The Tigers expectations certainly came to fruition this season. While sitting on the throne and reflecting on this title run, they’ll savor the moment as they look to defend their crown next season. VT

He was impressive enough to earn a prominent spot on your checklist of early candidates for the 2017 Kentucky Derby. Bitumen’s huge effort and the apparent quality of the horses he defeated could make that event a “key” race – one that turns out winners and big performances at other tracks over the next few months.

An easy victory by Bitumen in his June 30 debut at Churchill Downs made him a “horse to watch” for the 2017 Kentucky Derby.

10. ALSVID – ARISTIDES (GIII) Trainer Chris Hartman’s defending winner made it back-to-back wins in the six-furlong Aristides and, in doing so, snapped a year-long losing streak. Alsvid held off the talented but hard-luck runner-up Limousine Liberal by a head in a swift 1:08.26. There’s a big race out there with his name on it. VT

Highlighted dishes include watermelon gazpacho with tomato, crema, pistachio and basil, served with toast; avocado tartine with poached farm egg, arugula, citrus and pickled red onion, served with chips; summer squash and zucchini with pepitas, alfalfa sprouts and roasted tomato; and miso glazed salmon with baby bok choy, Marcona almonds and tea broth.

Stepson is on Losing End of Misspent Child Support

EAR ABBY: I have an 8-year-old stepson, “Kaden,” whom I love dearly. Kaden spends the bulk of his time with his mother on the other side of the country. When he comes to visit us in the summer, his clothing and shoes are always ragged and a few sizes too small.

new Instagram account, and when I told him to tell my brother hi, he stared at me for a few seconds longer (plus he was smiling the whole time). One of my girlfriends sort of likes him too.

Dear Abby

What do I do? How do I tell him I like him? Is it OK for me to ask him to go to the park? His brother and JEANNE my brother could go too. Please help PHILLIPS me. What do I do? – GIRL IN EL PASO, TEXAS

My husband pays child support and buys Kaden a new wardrobe every six months. Yet every time he comes to us, he’s never wearing anything his dad and I bought him, but what appear to be hand-me-down rags. We have spoken to the mother many times about it, but nothing changes. We feel if we stop buying clothes for Kaden, it would punish him, when it is his mom who isn’t spending the child support money on the boy. We have paid for extracurricular activities (sports) only for her to not take him there. She lies and says he doesn’t want to go, but we get a different story from the boy. He says she says, “Judo isn’t a real sport.” He has gained weight, and we don’t want him to be picked on for it. The state where the boy lives is not good about giving fathers custody of their kids, and the mom is not necessarily unfit. How can we make her see she’s hurting her kid? – MOTHER DOESN’T KNOW BEST DEAR M.D.K.B.: You can’t “make” another adult do something she isn’t inclined to do. However, what you can do is enroll Kaden in sports programs when he visits you during the summer months. You and your husband can also talk to a family law attorney and find out at what age Kaden will be able to legally request to be placed with you. While a young child may not be able to do this, I believe a teenager can make a compelling case for it. If Kaden’s mother has been depriving him, it would make a persuasive argument for a change in custody. •••

DEAR GIRL: If Gary wants you to follow his Instagram account, it’s a pretty good sign that he has positive feelings for you. If you want to ask him to go to the park and your parents don’t mind, go ahead and do it. But let me offer a couple of suggestions:

don’t think I could handle not seeing her face light up when she speaks about her new girlfriend. My love for Sonya runs to my core – it’s one for the ages. She IS my soul. I don’t want to lose her as my best friend, but I don’t know how to manage the pain of my unrequited love. Please help me. – DEMOLISHED IN CONNECTICUT DEAR DEMOLISHED: Your love for Sonya may run to the core, but it isn’t returned. If she’s in love with another woman, your chances of winding up with her are somewhere between slim and none. That’s why you must now decide if a bleeding heart is a condition you really want to live with. My advice is to be kind to yourself, get off a track that is leading nowhere and look for someone who can love you back. ••• Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

If you ask him, DO include your brother and his brother because being with others will make it more fun. And everybody loves a compliment. The compliment doesn’t have to be as blatant as “I like you,” which could embarrass some boys his age. A simple, “I think you’re great because (you’re e are all very attached to our pets and when they pass away it’s like losing a part really smart, you’re of your family. Faithful Companions is the largest and most widely trusted pet cremation good at sports, you’re service in the Kentuckiana area.

DEAR ABBY: Five years into our marriage, my wife and I took a girlfriend, “Sonya.” I fell madly in love with her. Unfortunately, my relationship with my wife cooled because she changed as a person. We ended up divorcing.

DEAR ABBY: I really like this guy named “Gary.” He’s super sweet, funny, cute and just incredible. He’s my brother’s friend.

I’m still in love with Sonya, but obviously, nothing will ever come of it. I’m her confidant and best friend, and she tells me all about her dating life.

I’m in sixth grade and he’s in fifth. I think he might like me back. He asked me to follow his

SPOTLIGHT

Hosparus Lunar5k

To raise money toward its mission of providing the absolute best end-of-life care to its patients, Hosparus will be hosting the Hosparus Lunar5k on July 23 at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. The race begins at 8:45 p.m. and, as a unique twist, boasts a superhero theme, perfect for the whole family. To get a few more details, we caught up with Race Director Evan Noble. What is the Hosparus Lunar5k? The Hosparus Lunar5k is a nighttime family-friendly superhero-themed 5K on Saturday, July 23. We encourage everyone to come as they are and run, walk, skip, jog, roll, fly or push a stroller. Dress up in your favorite costume and have some fun. Don’t forget that children 12 and under are free! What can participants expect at the event? They can expect an exciting evening that is great for the whole family. We will have a few vendors showing in our expo area followed by a short opening ceremony. Sarah Jordan from 102.3 The Max will be leading the festivities. Then, we will kick off the race at 8:45 p.m. and wrap up with a dance party and awards ceremony. Why is the event important for the community? Unlike most charity runs that only donate a small percentage of the proceeds back to the nonprofit organization, Hosparus puts on this race, and 100 percent of the proceeds go to our patients and families in our service area. Since 1978, Hosparus has been providing quality end-of-life care for those in need regardless of their ability to pay.

J U LY 7 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

Last year we provided $1.8 million in charity care. Our 500-member staff and 800 volunteers drove over 2.2 million miles to provide that compassionate and quality care that we take pride in. The Lunar5k is just one of our many events that help us make that happen.

Is it too late to participate? Of course not! People interested can register at lunar5k.com all the way until July 21 at midnight, at packet pickup on the 22 or at the race (prices do go up $5). VT

What difference have you seen this event make in the lives of its beneficiaries? We are able to provide care for those in need. By raising money and awareness, we are able to increase the number of families that we can help. Last year, we served over 6,300 families in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Hosparus offers medical care, individual and family counseling, spiritual care, bereavement services and much more. We have grown our ability to help more patients and families because of the Lunar5k. How do you hope the event changes in years to come? We would love to see some growth in the amount that we can raise for our patients and families. We are one of the largest 5Ks in the region and hope that more people will see that our 5K is unique and makes a difference in the lives of those around us.

Dennis Tapp of Designs by Dennis Tapp is one such expert. Fresh off the design of Nowhere Bar’s sister establishment, Somewhere Restaurant and Bar, Tapp is currently at a creative zenith, and his muse is firing on all cylinders. A true creative type, it seems that Tapp thrives while working on several projects at once, but there is one home of his in Lake Forest that is particularly breathtaking.

He hopes to go about doing that by adding new seating, lighting and window treatments. Another goal of his is to change the look of the space with complementary black lacquer and silver finish. By watching Tapp, it’s clear that he can already see what he wants to do. As he does a quick survey of the kitchen, he smiles briefly and says, “When I get done with it, it will blend in beautifully.”

quished. “It was so dark and heavy looking,” he says of the living room. “You walked into this room and you didn’t get any emphasis on the height and the drama of it. What I did was come in here, tear the cabinets and the carpet out and continue the tile.” Next, Tapp also worked with the homeowner to incorporate specific art pieces that she wanted featured in the space. “I built niches to accommodate all the pieces she wanted to display in here,” asserts Tapp. “I designed the

The rest of the house – while still beautiful – has yet to be molded by Tapp’s vision. But oh, does he have plans. “We’re going to keep the piano in the entrance way, but I want to add a crystal chandelier with black shades to match and really make things pop,” he says. When he moves on to the kitchen, Tapp laments yet again the dark, heavy look of the room: “It makes the house age, I think, before its time. I want to update it, to resuscitate it.”

Tapp also has plans to update the master bedroom and master bath, and his ideas for the spaces seem to pour out of him: “In the bedroom, I want to change the bedding and wall coverings. I want to change the lamps, the drapery and the window treatments. In the bathroom, I have to get rid of those glass blocks. It’s very ’90s. This house has got some great features; we’re just getting rid of that look that was the style of the home’s original builder.” As impeccable as his taste may be, Tapp also wants to make his client happy and ensure that the home transforms into a space that they will enjoy living in. In the case of this home, Tapp has this to say: “She wanted a formal look but a nice, comfortable look at the same time. She loves silver, and gold is making a comeback in popularity. The two look great together, so I tried to pair the two together wherever I could. That way, you have a

The foyer will mostly be left as is, but Tapp has plans to install a crystal chandelier and other fixtures in order to further elevate the space.

A heat map placed onto the body will show muscle and fat gains or losses, and users will even be able to create a custom timelapse to see how their body has changed in recent weeks or even months, a feature Farahbakhshian is particularly proud of. “Imagine being able to see your body change as you train for a marathon, go through a pregnancy or bulk up with more muscle,” he poses. “You get a chance to see muscle definition that isn’t visible in the mirror, allowing people who would have never thought of themselves as ‘strong’ to get a boost of self-confidence.” With Naked, anyone will be able to see exactly how their workouts are affecting their body, maintain motivation toward their goals and be proactive in adapting their routine. Seeing minimal muscle gains in their biceps, for example, may tell someone to swap their variation of curls out of their workout for another or take a closer look at their form. Seeing a time-lapse of their abs steadily gaining definition will tell a person that their circuit is working and to keep up the good work. The ability to measure body fat percentage, one of the most important measurements when sticking to a diet, is probably the most exciting; currently, the only way to measure body fat is with tedious calipers or by undergoing a water displacement test. While Naked’s feature set sounds like an impossible feat of technology, Farahbakhshian has built a team to ensure that the final product is not only perfectly polished but also fun to use: “The Naked team consists of mechanical, electrical, firmware, software and computer vision engineers who are working at the cutting edge of their fields. There is a lot of interdisciplinary work that goes into creating a product like this, as it requires significant hardware and software integration.” It’s been a long process for the folks at Naked, but when the product finally launches in March 2017, users will be able to track their progress like never before, revolutionizing the caliber of motivation, dedication and, ultimately, results.

key lime pie fro-yo pops We’re knee-deep in the sweltering Kentucky summer, so refreshing frozen treats are an absolute must. Popsicles are a great choice because you don’t need any special equipment – other than a popsicle mold. If you don’t want to go out and buy a mold (or you just need to make these popsicles ASAP), you can even use disposable paper cups, which will do just fine. The following recipes can be used together to make these EPIC Key Lime Pie Fro-Yo Pops, or you can use them separately in other recipes. The key lime curd is great piped in cupcakes with a meringue frosting, and the fro-yo pops can be easily adapted to substitute equal parts of your favorite pureed fruit for the key lime curd. Now, go make room in your freezer and get ready for a brain freeze.

key lime curd ingredients

instructions

1 cup sugar 5 eggs 3⁄4 cup key lime juice, fresh or bottled 1⁄8 tsp. kosher salt Zest of 1 lime, key lime if possible 7 tbsp. butter, cut into cubes and chilled

Whisk together sugar and eggs in a medium saucepan. Add juice, salt and zest, and stir until smooth. Place saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens to the consistency of pudding, about 10 minutes. Whisk in butter, a few cubes at a time, until smooth. Pour through a fine strainer into a large bowl and chill.

pops ingredients 2 cups plain unsweetened Greek yogurt 1 cup lime curd, homemade or store-bought (OR other fruit puree of your choice) 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs Popsicle stick and mold

instructions In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine cold lime curd and Greek yogurt. Taste the mixture to see if it’s flavored to your liking, adding more lime curd if you wish. Pour equal amounts of mixture into your popsicle molds and insert sticks. Chill in the freezer for at least four hours or overnight. If you have trouble removing the popsicles from the molds, you can dip them in a bit of warm water to loosen them up. Once they’re removed, sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs and serve, or keep in the freezer for future popsicle needs.

experience it in groups of two to four aboard a multi-person tube. To gain a little speed, you slide down a short but steep dark tunnel before spinning out into an expansive blue-and-yellow checkered cone, where you slide up the sides with more speed than you might imagine. Hurricane Bay also features the Family Wave Lagoon, which allows the kids plenty of shallow water to splash in with ample deck space for the adults to sunbathe and supervise. The lagoon is also near the shady and relaxing Hurricane Bay Beach Club, which offers beer, frozen drinks and snacks in a refreshing out-of-the-sun setting. Taco Tequila is also nearby, beckoning guests with hand-crafted tacos and tempting tequila cocktails.

Located deep within Kentucky Kingdom, Hurricane Bay is a destination all of its own. Admission to the waterpark is included with that of Kentucky Kingdom, and guests of all ages are sure to have an unforgettable summertime experience within Hurricane Bay thanks to its rides, slides and scenic atmosphere.

A tamer though still exhilarating slide known as Wave Runner is a part of the Deep Water Dive complex. And while the latter may feature a hair-raising drop, the former’s thrill lies with its riders often getting airborne while going down. It’s a drop of 66 feet with three “bumps” along the way – by the third, riders have picked up such speed that they more fly over the final ridge rather than slide down it.

There’s absolutely no shortage of fun to be had at Hurricane Bay, for there’s truly a multitude of offerings for all ages. And Louisville knows it – the park has continually seen an enthusiastic response from the community. “We’ve sold a lot of season passes this year, which is great for our local market,” says Kentucky Kingdom Director of Operations Lesly Birkner. This strong support in Louisville has actually allowed the company to branch out and concentrate its marketing on other cities in order to motivate out-of-towners to make the trip to Louisville and visit Kentucky Kingdom and Hurricane Bay.

Indianapolis markets,” Birkner relates. “With our current out-of-state promotion, we are bringing in 10,000-plus visitors a week from those markets. As visitors will see, the park is bigger and better than it has ever been!” With the oppressive heat of summer in full-effect, there’s no better time to visit Hurricane Bay and see why Kentucky Kingdom is enjoying one of its busiest seasons yet. From Deep Water Dive to the Family Wave Lagoon, you can rest assured that there will certainly be something at Hurricane Bay to really give your summer a splash.

When you look sequences to ever to be projected on at how real life disasters have only influenced separation in the real world, this is quite a desirthe big screen? able fantasy. Some further development on the motivation of the aliens is pretty good too.

When the original film was released, it was a hit with audiences but not so much with critics. At the age 15, I certainly thought it was one of the most amazing experiences I’d ever had at the movies. 1983’s “Return of the Jedi” was the last time anyone had seen such an endless array of miniatures and explosions being simultaneously combined on the screen while accompanied by beautiful, melodramatic music to match.

This movie isn’t helped by the inexplicable absence of Will Smith’s hero character, but it gains a lot of deliberate laughs through the inexplicable continuation of Brent Spiner’s Area 51 scientist, who was presumed dead in the last film. Bill Pullman’s hammed-up performance as the traumatized former president is unintentionally one of the funniest aspects of the film. Jeff Goldblum’s continued role as the neurotic genius with a knack for rationalizing nonsense also continues to inspire smiles. The weirdest aspect of the film is a bad subplot involving Judd Hirsch’s character, who couldn’t be denied from coming back considering that the man doesn’t look like he’s aged a day since the last movie. The movie also attempts a passing of the torch to a younger generation that so many of these sequels of late are attempting, some more effectively than others. Maika Monroe, Jesse T. Usher and Liam Hemsworth all represent a young generation, which lost a lot of parents and have good introductions, but the movie only vaguely develops their motivations as new heroes as it moves along.

It came at a wonderful time when decades of refinement in the art of practical effects found a temporary ally in the newly proven abilities of computer-generated imagery. This was also a time when special effects were still special, and this movie’s imagery caused jaws to drop, whether people were seeing a clip of it on TV or watching the movie on a giant screen in booming THX.

If you experienced the original as I did in ’96, don’t expect that impact here, but you knew that. Movies are crammed with special effects now, and they only leave an impression when they don’t look terrible (this movie varies in that regard) or contain enough shots with no effects at all to add a little contrast.

Twenty years later, I still find the film to be uniquely beautiful regardless of how brainless it is, but I would have never wanted a sequel to it. The original was an epic about mankind triumphing over annihilation, and there is absolutely no call for another chapter to the story. I guess this mega-budget monster of a hit didn’t get its sequel back then because prevailing minds weren’t greedy or shameless enough.

Ultimately, it is a losing sequel because once the aliens return with a cataclysmic boom, it never takes a minute to let feelings set in. Director Roland Emmerich, whose reputation for brainless disaster movies hasn’t improved in the past two decades, continues to invent situations that should challenge any audience members’ notions of what our planet cannot survive. Maybe Emmerich doesn’t care and finds this whole thing funny. I did.

Simply put, the legacy of “Independence Day” is not improved by a guilty-pleasure sequel, worthy of a view at the drive-in, but when I watched the first film on a newly re-mastered Blu-ray recently, its magnificence was in no way lessened. VT

With Noel’s being from Louisville and Burrows’ being from Texas, both women had idyllic Southern childhoods and grew up listening to the likes of Loretta Lynn, Aretha Franklin, Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Chuck Berry and Crystal Gayle. In addition to listening to and creating music, both Noel and Burrows expressed interest in performance art from a young age. “There was this incredible children’s theatre run by my school and some amazing parent volunteers and local artists – Anchorage Children’s Theatre, or ACT,” says Noel proudly. Noel also asserts that it was her third grade teacher, Mrs. Cunningham, who first encouraged her to pursue her dreams of performing on stage: “She knew what she was doing, and God bless her for this wisdom. I’m forever grateful.”

room called the Collective Unconscious.” Utilizing her time with Collective Unconscious to the fullest and drawing from her influences in Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Steven Martin and “Saturday Night Live,” Burrows found her voice: “I like the way comedy can make social commentary but in a very funny and smart way. I enjoy entertaining and educating simultaneously.” Finally, the two blossoming comedians met while performing for “Expressing Motherhood,” a national show featuring stories about motherhood told on stage. That fateful day occurred in

2010 with both Noel and Burrows at the peak of their comedic abilities and having amassed a wealth of tales from their respective marriages and children to draw from. “I wrote a character piece about a mom – me – who forgets she is wearing her breast pump – true story – and answers the door to the UPS guy,” recalls Noel. Burrows also remembers the monologue vividly, claiming it was a pivotal moment in the duo’s friendship: “I didn’t know that I was going to find my best friend and comedy soul mate that day, but when she stood on stage wearing nothing but a breast pump and pajama pants, delivering the most brilliant comedic monologue I had ever heard, I had to make her my best friend immediately.” The two women experimented with each other’s material and found that when they sang harmony on each other’s songs, it was magic. For five years now, they have been touring as Mommy Tonk, and when they play in Louisville, they will play with the locally based band The Porch Possums. The result will be a 90-minute show about motherhood and marriage packed full of irreverent comedy, heartfelt storytelling and “the prettiest, filthiest music you ever did hear.” With a description like that, Mommy Tonk is a one-of-a-kind show that you will not want to miss. VT Mommy Tonk and The Porch Possums will perform at The Laughing Derby – 1250 Bardstown Road – on July 12 at 7:15 p.m. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at mommytonk.com.

Burrows’ introduction to showmanship was less formal: “I learned how to perfect telling a dirty joke by sitting around with my dad and his friends while they drank scotch and smoked in the backyard.” Her family attended church, and she claims that even though she did not always see eye to eye on the content of her preacher’s sermons, she respected the man’s formidable public speaking skills. This formative experience has proven to have had a profound effect on her performance style. As Noel and Burrows grew older, they slowly combined their affinity for comedy and performance with their love for music, all while garnering as much experience as possible. Noel spent her years right after attending Louisville’s Youth Performing Arts School and the University of Kentucky touring nationally with children’s theatre companies, writing plays and performPHOTO COURTESY OF MOMMY TONK

PUZZLES

pets of the week Lacey is an adorable, friendly and loving 5-year-old pit bull mix who came to the Kentucky Humane Society from another shelter. She adores people of all kinds; she just needs a few minutes to get to know them. While she loves people, she’s not as keen on other pets and would like to be your one and only. She’s spayed, micro-chipped and up-to-date on all vaccinations. Come meet her at our adoption center in the St. Matthews Feeders Supply, 4600 Shelbyville Road.

Meet Tigresa! Tigresa is a sweet, petite, 7-year-old tabby mix. She came to the Kentucky Humane Society when her family could no longer care for her. Tigresa is a pretty laid-back kitty who enjoys cuddling in your lap, chin scratches, head rubs and carrying on conversations – she can be quite the talker when she has something to say! Tigresa is spayed, micro-chipped and up-to-date on her vaccinations. She’s waiting for you at our East Campus, 1000 Lyndon Lane in Louisville.
