I gravitate toward homes steeped in history and vintage interior decor. Mid-century modern design is my architectural sweet spot. There is no logic attached to my taste, but typically if a piece of furniture is so old that it maintains its own spiritual energy or appears too uncomfortable to sit on – I simply must have it! But there is something about this issue that makes me crave what is new and cutting-edge in the industry. In fact, soon, placed among my primitive dough bowls and antique artifacts will be something similar to one of the innovative FirstBuild products that we explore in this week’s feature – one that I have publicly declared will change my life.

LETTER from the

Editor

Apparently, I am among legions of loyalists and enthusiasts who have banded together with a shared vision – for superior ice. It is a definite sign that you are dealing with a passionate and committed community when the head of the development team is referred to as a “Product Evangelist,” as is the case with the Opal Nugget Ice Maker. Yes, I am among the ice-informed fanatics that can identify my proximity to a nugget ice “dealer” at any given time (thank you for your service, Thorntons). When I learned of FirstBuild’s startup campaign to develop an affordable nugget ice maker for the home, I found myself in equally enthusiastic company, and the project was 1,700 percent funded by August 2015 in record time.

FirstBuild’s development research revealed to me what I had not bothered to learn for myself. In addition to its flavor retention properties, what makes nugget ice so satisfying is the compacting of ice flakes that are 50 percent air by volume. The tiny pinholes of Tonya Abeln air are what make the ice soft on your teeth and so very craveable, chewable and flavorful. Pre-orders for the product were placed in the form of an early investment over a year ago with the knowledge that the technology would be perfected and the product delivered in July 2016. There have been a few delays (to a very vocal online ice-chewing community), but perfected innovation takes time (though, if I must pipe in, I would certainly welcome the hydrating-inducing delivery by the arrival of my own little human nugget…due any day). Please read our feature story to learn about other home innovations courtesy of FirstBuild. Some may seem like more important contributions than one that merely redefines your iced coffee routine or creates a better experience for cocktail entertaining, but all are remarkably developed within our own city. My Opal Nugget Ice Maker may not truly change my life (as I have claimed on record), but it will bring some of life’s little pleasures into my home and at my fingertips. Cheers to innovation in Louisville!

Connected Kitchens FirstBuild Paves the Way in Kitchen Technology Story by April Corbin • Photos by Crystal Ludwick

Autonomous cars. Artificially intelligent robots that become our personal assistants or companions. Contact lenses that turn your eyes into tiny computer screens. When people think about technology and how it might change our lives, the sky is the limit – or, if you can imagine flying cars and consumer space travel, even the sky is just the beginning. S E P T E M B E R 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

It is easy to get swept away by the big-ticket pie-in-the-sky innovative ideas like those. But the majority of technological advancements sneak up on us. And the best technology is that which blends so seamlessly into our lives that we stop considering it “tech” at all and simply consider it an essential part of our daily lives. One of the best places to find this type of tech: the kitchen. Consider the refrigerator. Most people take it for granted that we have tiny sealed closets where we can keep things colder and fresher longer, but when it was first invented, it was a high-tech piece of equipment. Ditto to the toaster, or the oven, or the microwave. So what is next? What is the next toaster or piece of tech we will one day see tucked away in the corner of every kitchen? Justin Berger of the GE-backed co-creation community and product development micro-factory FirstBuild doesn’t have an exact answer yet, but he believes that engineers, designers and tinkerers may be working on it right now. The kitchen, he says, is the perfect place for fostering innovation

Wow!

The kitchen, [Berger] says, is the perfect place for fostering innovation among the creative community. Why? Because

among the creative community. Why? Because “it taps into people’s passions.” As Berger puts it, “Nobody is passionate about dishwashers or laundry.”

“it taps into people’s passions.”

For purists – those folks who see cooking as an art or an act of love best passed on through scribbled recipes on faded index cards from grandma – just the thought of more tech in the kitchen might feel like an affront to something sacred. But for everyone else, the possibilities are endless and often welcomed with open arms. Berger and his coworker Taylor Dawson see a trend toward guided cooking. Things like a pan equipped with sensors that monitor when a salmon fillet is ready to be flipped, paired with a fun recipe app that dictates instructions. “It’s about better food made easier,” explains Berger. One specific area FirstBuild is focused on is cooktop technology. Dawson explains, “We want to win the cooktop. Nobody has conquered the cooktop. Think about the oven. You need a level of precision for baking. You set it to 300 degrees. There is no precision on cooktops.” A recipe might instruct someone to sauté veg-

gies “for five minutes at medium-high heat.” That is fine and dandy if your stove dial mirrors that of the oven the recipe maker used. But too often it won’t. At best, this sort of inconsistency can lead to unnecessary stress, especially for people without much experience in the kitchen. At worst, it could mean undercooked food that might make someone sick. If the guesswork of stovetop temperatures was removed, maybe people would opt for a guided-home-cooked meal instead of another order of “number three, large, with a Diet Coke” at the drive-thru. Leave the finesse and nuance to the folks in big chef hats and pret-

ty white aprons. Cooking can be an art, but it could also just be a science or simple routine. Connectivity is a big theme within the industry. Last week, GE Appliances announced it is introducing a line of voice-controlled products, including refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, ranges and laundry. People with these connected appliances will be able to control them through their Amazon Echo by using commands like “Alexa, tell Geneva to preheat the oven to 350 degrees.” It might seem like a vanity accessory to most people, but the practical applications are anything but. Technology like this helps people with disabilities or other mobility issues live easier. With a

population that is increasingly aging, that’s an important design element to consider. And time and again companies have learned that when they design inclusively for people with disabilities, the end product is almost always better for the population as a whole. (Want an example? Think of the elevator. It is a near necessity for people in a wheelchair, but not having to walk up 13 flights of stairs is a perk most have appreciated and taken advantage of.) One such product FirstBuild created was an easy-load double oven whose top rack pulls out as you open the oven. It was designed to help people who have difficulties reaching into an oven, but is so convenient that it is being introduced to the mass market. Technology is also bringing more advanced cooking techniques to everyday folks. Take sous vide, for example. This method, in which food is vacuum-sealed and placed in a temperature-controlled water bath to ensure even cooking, has been used in high-end restaurants for decades. Only in the past few years has the price point of sous vide cookers dipped low enough to be affordable to some home chefs. FirstBuild’s Paragon Induction Cooktop, which provides consumers with the equipment to sous vide at home, has an MSRP of $299.

rants may follow suit, especially if FirstBuild has its way. Engineers there are working on a pizza oven that can replicate the wood- or coalfired pies of commercial pizzerias in an indoor home setting. The oven, which falls under the GE luxury brand Monogram, will fit inside a standard wall-oven kitchen cavity, replacing the need for big and bulky outdoor brick ovens. What else might be possible? FirstBuild hopes to find out this weekend, September 24-25. They are hosting a hackathon titled “The Future of Cooking.” Approximately 250 to 300 people from Louisville and afar will work across the weekend to design, build, code and hack the next generation of cooking devices. “We’ll see what they come up with,” says Berger. Who knows, it might just wind up being the next big thing. VT For more information, visit firstbuild.com

Traditional mailboxes haven’t been updated in more than a century, but one local entrepreneur is working on doing just that. He is Kela Ivonye, the founder off Mailhaven, a smart mailbox that protects your packages and alerts you when they arrive. Here is how it works: The person delivering a package uses a barcode or security code to open the mailbox, then places the delivery inside. That delivery is then protected from the elements, as well as from thieves, until the intended receiver returns home. With Mailhaven, customers would no longer have to worry about coming home to a sticker on their door that reads, “Sorry we missed you!” Each year, there are more than a billion missed deliveries. That costs delivery companies like UPS and FedEx money, and it causes headaches for people who expect their newly purchased products now rather than later. It even has a trickle-down affect to the online retailers because missed delivery dates sour the purchasing experience and turn people off to buying online. Last month, Ivonye was named one of six recipients of a Vogt Awards, which are given to local startups with the potential to scale up and increase economic activity within the city and region. As a winner, Ivonye receives $25,000 and 12 weeks of mentorship focused on building his business.

Your wardrobe ﬁts, shouldn’t your closet? He is currently working with retailers to get them to embrace the concept. Meanwhile, the Mail-

Delivery companies already assign barcodes to every package in their system for tracking purposes, so weaving something like Mailhaven into the mix isn’t difficult. It just requires the buy-in, says Ivonye.

haven box itself is currently on its third prototype. Mailhaven expects to have a product out for select consumers to begin testing sometime this year.

first glance, Wallitsch Nursery and Garden Center is a one-stop shop that offers both an onsite garden center and landscaping services. Yet, while this business can provide it all, it is far from a big-box chain retailer. It is very much a family owned operation. Started in 1946, by Herman Wallitsch Sr., it has stayed the course and within the family line. Today it is owned by Jim and Mary Wallitsch, who oversee the business and ensure great service is provided to their loyal customers. Now in their 70th year, it is clear that the Wallitsch family has the expertise needed for all of your garden and lawn needs.

“Celebrating our 70th anniversary this year, it has become more of a lifestyle for us,” says Mary Wallitsch. “We’re passionate about growing beautiful plant material.” Popular plants of the moment are “fiddle leaf fig, a variety of succulents, terrariums and unusual evergreens,” she says, adding that both sun and shade loving hydrangeas are also in the spotlight. While the growing family remains consistent among their customer base, Wallitsch is also seeing a more and more diverse clientele show interest; millennials for instance, are taking advantage of the services they provide.

enhancements, Wallitsch says.

According to Wallitsch, “trends are being catered more to interior-scaping and growing your own food.” She has also noticed an increase in the overall awareness of environmental issues, such as the plight of bees. Individuals are increasingly making gardening decisions that can have a positive impact on the ecosystem.

Wallitsch Nursery and Garden Center offers several innovative and convenient services. The We Plan, You Plant program is a practical option for customers who want to be hands-on but with some professional guidance. This program provides an at home consultation, from which individuals can progress at their own pace. The flexibility works wonderfully, allowing individuals to adhere to their own budgets over the span of time.

Thankfully, environmental awareness is a trend that she foresees sticking around. Other long haul trends include organics and edibles, as well as container gardening and small space gardening. People are also interested in low-maintenance landscape

It’s common for many people to feel overwhelmed before beginning a new project, so Wallitsch suggests starting small. If working indoors, “start with one houseplant and add others as you gain confidence,” she says. When it comes to gardening outdoors, “container gardening is a good starting point for beginners,” Wallitsch advises. “In either case, do your research and know the conditions in which your plant will be situated. For example, how many hours of direct sun will the area get and what size of space are you working with?”

for any space Story by SARA GIZA

entucky is often known for its picturesque rolling green hills and abundant nature. If you’re wondering how to incorporate an earthy touch into your home decor, a stop inside Mahonia is a good place to start. Born and raised in Portland, Oregon, owner Bridget Davis knows a thing or two about being surrounded by beauty. “My grandma was a gardener and I got a lot of early inspiration from her,” she says. “Her house was always beautiful because it had nature in it.” Having worked as both a floral and garden designer, Davis knew with assurance that her passion was helping bring beauty to peoples’ lives. After moving to Louisville in the spring of 2015, she decided to do just that when she opened Mahonia, a home and floral design studio. Her shop is filled with the hottest trends, including fiddle leaf fig, succulent and air plants. You’ll also notice gorgeous terrariums that can accommodate spaces of any size. The fiddle leaf fig is one of the most popular trends right now, thanks largely to social media. “We’re seeing it everywhere, especially if you follow Pinterest

or any home decor sites,” Davis says. The largely Florida-based plant has a huge fan base as it’s often seen as a symbol of the tropical good life. On these trends, Davis states, “While terrariums are back in vogue now, they’re going to stick around this time. They’re so easy to care for. It’s a very personal thing too – you can customize them to your own decor.” There is a certain timelessness to plants, she explains. “There’s been a garden evolution,” Davis notes, describing the long-gone days of only thinking of your outdoor backyard space. “People are even doing vertical gardens now. No matter what kind of space you have, you can have plants.” The staff of Mahonia have a wide variety of customers. Their convenient location on Market Street welcomes many professionals, families and even college students just starting out who seek a personalized space even if it’s a smaller one.

Equal to the emphasis on beauty is the importance of education. At Mahonia, customers will be guided to the perfect selection that meets their individual needs.

When it comes to the future of landscape architecture and design, you neednâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look further than your own backyard. According to a 2016 survey conducted by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), there is a growing demand in the industry for extended outdoor living spaces and design elements: fireplaces, lighting, internet connectivity and even sleeping spaces. Consumers are eager for creative and luxurious solutions for outdoor entertaining and living, outspreading their homes into nature.

“My ultimate goal as a landscape architect is to bring the architecture away from the walls of the home and make it look like it belongs there.”

Louisville landscape architect Josh Myers, owner of Myers+Co. Landcapes, concurs that he has seen that demand increase among his local clientele. “Fortunately,” he says, “there are beautiful and functional ways to extend the use of your outdoor entertaining spaces long after Labor Day.” Most notably, incorporating full-service kitchens, grills, brick ovens, ample counter and food prep space, televisions and refrigerators is no longer a desired afterthought for homeowners and is a design service that extends beyond what many may initially interpret as landscape architecture. “My ultimate goal as a landscape architect,” Myers notes, “is to bring the architecture away from the walls of the home and make it look like it belongs there.” This extends beyond traditional yard or garden maintenance but certainly includes those ambiance-enhancing services as well. Lighted landscapes are an additional outdoor living trend that has found an embrace in the local market. “The tech-savvy customer is willing to explore dramatic and creative ways to light their outdoor space,” he explains. “LED lighting is more cost-upfront to install but is one of the easiest things that can result in long-term savings.”

While water issues tend to be a hot landscaping topic nationally, Myers indicates that conservation projects are still slow to gain interest in Louisville. “While I am approached about using plants that are tolerant to the local humidity and reduced lawn area, which are sustainable elements to a project, I only see

With so many talented local artists in Louisville, Myers does see a trend toward incorporating garden art into more formal spaces whether that be a sculpture piece or fountain. Also – in keeping with the trend of low-maintenance – container gardens and, in some cases, edible landscapes, continue to grow in popularity and, he says, are the perfect way to add seasonal color to the front of a home. “More homeowners wish to represent the fall holidays within their seasonal landscaping. It’s grown beyond just placing a few pumpkins at your doorstep.”

pockets of rainwater harvesting or water-efficient irrigation projects. These aren’t yet embraced by most consumers locally. I hope to see the demand for that increase.”

FA L L H O M E & GARDEN

Whether a project is large or small, Myers has noticed that almost all busy clients are striving for low maintenance when it comes to their outdoor space. This includes materials chosen for outdoor living areas. “More and more people are approaching these environments as they would interior design and looking to replicate indoor materials, choosing tile that is consistent with the appearance of hardwood floors or porcelain tile flooring. Of course there are time-tested natural materials for these surfaces, but with traditional pine or cedar decking, you are looking at yearly maintenance as opposed to other composite options. Ipe decking is extremely popular right now.” The two most important deciding factors in making material decisions, he says, are cost and maintenance, with maintenance typically emerging as the decision-maker.

One place that Myers hopes we will all soon be able to look toward for landscaping inspiration is the Waterfront Botanical Gardens for which he is on the planning committee. The vision to create a garden and conservatory of extraordinary beauty may be only in the early stages of planning and fundraising but will serve to engage Louisville with plants and nature and promote an appreciation for a sustainable world. VT Myers brings a unique perspective to any project as a designer, site engineer and landscape architect. For more information about his portfolio and company, visit myersandcompanylandscapes.com.

Dr. Chet Finds His Medical Home in Louisville

pend even a few minutes with Dr. Chet Mays, the newest addition to the surgical staff at the Calobrace & Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery Center, and his commitment to Business quality and drive for excellence Profile are immediately evident. His demeanor is warm, professionKRIS al, engaging and confident. The RITCHER combination of his education, talent and personality make him exactly the kind of guy you’d want as your nextdoor neighbor, your brother-in-law or, well, your plastic surgeon.

that the gratification he gets from being part of a such a prestigious team of surgeons compensates for the sacrifices he’s made to get here. But even that is not the biggest reward for Mays. It comes down to his clients and the impact he can make on their lives. Although he’s not saving lives, Mays is changing them. He regards the ability to change people as a privilege, and he finds the plastic surgery field to be rewarding in artistic and innovative

ways, that many other types of surgery are arguably not. He takes great pride in building collaborative relationships that allow him to realize a client’s vision while contributing to their confidence and enhancing their self-image. Ultimately, his passion for client satisfaction has merged with his ongoing quest for self-improvement, putting Mays right where he belongs, and Louisville should feel fortunate to have him as part of the community. VT Visit calobrace.com for more information about the Calobrace & Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery Center practice, team and treatments offered, or call 502.899.9979 to request a consultation. Dr. Chet Mays.

Hailing from Somerset, Kentucky, Mays grew up around surgeons. His father and three of his brothers are also surgeons, so his path into the surgical field was natural. Louisville became the host city for his undergrad work and he earned his medical degree at the University of Louisville School of Medicine. It was in his third year as a med student that his focus turned to plastic surgery, when he took a course elective taught by Dr. Brad Calobrace. Upon completing his studies at UofL, he relocated to New York, where he spent the next six years at the University of Rochester, completing an integrated plastic surgery residency. Mays says that while he pursued his education and training, he always knew he wanted to be back in Louisville and specifically had his sights set on the Calobrace & Mizuguchi Plastic Surgery Center. He felt that the high quality and energetic practice that Calobrace had built resonated with his goals, so he maintained contact with Calobrace through various events and conferences he attended over the course of his training. Out of mutual respect and shared inspiration, a true friendship developed. When he talks about Calobrace, Mays uses words like, “integrity” and “professional expertise.” His admiration is evident and his enthusiasm and passion for their common vision is intense. Mays returned to Louisville this summer, where he rooted down with his wife and two sons, and joined his dream practice alongside Calobrace and partner Dr. Mizuguchi in August. And while Mays’ credentials are impressive and the list of honors and awards he’s received is long, he is anything but pretentious. His attitude is humble and he insists S E P T E M B E R 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

business briefs LOUISVILLE’S FLAVORMAN AMONG ICIC AND FORTUNE’S INNER CITY 100 WINNERS

The Initiative for a Competitive Inner City (ICIC) and Fortune have announced that Flavorman (8th St. Ventures) has been selected for the prestigious 2016 Inner City 100 list. This recognition places Flavorman in an exemplary lineage of nearly 900 fast-growing and innovative inner city businesses. ICIC has also inducted 14 businesses into the Inner City 100 “Hall of Fame,” including Flavorman, which made the list for the fifth time this year, as homage to these companies’ successive growth achievement of five or more years. The full list can be viewed on the Fortune website. Flavorman ranked 67 overall on the list of 100. The Louisville-based beverage development company founded by David Dafoe reported 2015 revenues of $10.85 million and a five-year growth rate of 171 percent from 2011 to 2015. To date, with just more than 30 employees, Dafoe’s company has developed over 800 beverages for over 450 clients including four of the world’s five largest distilleries, educated almost 500 people in 15 countries about distilling and worked with such recognizable companies as Sunsweet, MillerCoors and Ocean Spray. ICIC’s Inner City 100 is an annually compiled and released list featuring high-power, high-potential businesses from around the country with headquarters in inner cities. Each company is selected by ICIC with help from a national network of nominating partners who seek to identify, spotlight and further enable the named companies’ innovative urban entrepreneurship. Ranked by revenue growth, the esteemed recipients go on to have their names published in Fortune. The rankings for each company were announced at the Inner City 100 Conference and Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, September 14, 2016, at the Aloft Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts. LOUISVILLE AREA HOME SALES UP 5.9 PERCENT AND MEDIAN PRICE UP 3.9PERCENT YEAR TO DATE VS 2015 The Greater Louisville Association of Realtors (GLAR) reported year to date (“YTD”) sales up 5.9 percent compared to the same time last year. Sales in August 2016 were up 2.9 percent versus August 2015, with 1,622 homes and condos sold. The median price was up 3.9 percent YTD and the average price was 2.3 percent higher YTD. GLAR releases monthly statistics mid-month to allow for the most accurate and comprehensive reporting possible. Local REALTORS report their residential sales totals to GLAR, and publishing the statistics mid-month allows for the activity that takes place late in the month to be counted. This ensures that the totals reported show the truest depiction of the local housing market. In Jefferson County, the average price in August 2016 was $207,520 and the median was $170,000. For all MLS areas, the inventory of available properties was 19.2 percent lower than at the same time last year. In Jefferson County, the inventory of homes and condos for sale was 21.1 percent lower than August 2015. GLAR President Greg Taylor commented that, “The number of homes placed under contract in August 2016 increased 1.9 percent versus August 2015, which is above the national statistic of 1.3 percent.” He added that, “Our members are continuing to see quick sales of homes under $250k at the same time that showings of higher end homes have slowed a bit.” DERBY DINNER PLAYHOUSE CHOSEN AS 2016 ‘BEST OF THE BEST TRAVEL SUPPLIERS 2016’ American Bus Association’s Destinations magazine has chosen Derby Dinner Playhouse as one of its “Best of the Best Travel Suppliers in 2016.” The magazine’s editorial panel selected the Clarksville company from suppliers across the country. The American Bus Association, or ABA, is a trade association for motorcoach operators and tour companies in the U.S. and Can-

to submit your business brief email circ@voice-tribune.com ada. Every year, the association provide more than 600 million passenger trips on charters, tours and shuttles. Its members include motorcoach operators, tour operators, tourism organizations, as well as product and service suppliers. All of the 2016 Best of the Best winners have been published in a special section of the magazine’s September/October issue, which will be available online for a full year. “Thanks to Kate Kane, director of sales for the Clark-Floyd Counties Convention & Tourism Bureau, and all the staff for their support,” said Bekki Jo Schneider, co-owner of Derby Dinner Playhouse. “Also, this recognition would not have been possible without the professional leadership and service of our tour group manager, Cindy Nevitt.” RJ THIENEMAN TO DEVELOP NEW COMMUNITY IN JEFFERSON AND OLDHAM COUNTIES Developer RJ Thieneman is adding to its long list of successful communities. Development will begin this fall on a new investment adjacent to the current Fox Run community – The Reserve at Fox Run. The property is located between Old Henry Road and extends 37 acres to Ash Avenue in Oldham County. A total of 64 home sites will be available with 13 in Oldham County and 51 in Jefferson County. Home sites will be approximately 80-feet wide and will begin at $88,000. Average home prices will range from $375,000 to over $500,000. New home construction is scheduled to begin in June 2017. “Old Henry Road will be expanded into three lanes and connect to Ash Avenue, allowing access to the development from both counties,” said Bob Thieneman. This new development has close proximity to desirable schools, interstates and other east end conveniences. RJ Thieneman is partnering with The Bollinger Development Group and Fox Run Partners on this project. Billy Doelker, member of Fox Run Partners, is co-managing the development and construction of the infrastructure along with Bob Thieneman, vice president of RJ Thieneman. This venture represents a unique opportunity for two long-standing family development companies to capitalize on their managerial and development experience. RJ Thieneman is excited to move forward with this development and to add to its existing notable communities of Saratoga Springs, Rock Springs and The Woods of Glen Oaks. UOFL LAUNCHES ENDOWED SCHOLARSHIP FUND FOR LATINO/HISPANIC STUDENTS The University of Louisville has launched its first endowed scholarship fund for Latino and Hispanic students. The Al Dia en America Endowed Scholarship will be offered through the Office of Hispanic and Latino Initiatives. Jose Neil Donis, publisher of Al Dia en America, Louisville’s Spanish newspaper, established the scholarship to subsidize the cost of higher education at UofL for students with strong financial need. Preference will be given to students who self-identify as Hispanic or Latino. The amount of the scholarship will be determined by funds available at the time the awards are granted in fall 2018. “Our new partnership with Al Dia is an example of the necessary intentional community engagement to create successful programs for Latino students,” said Sarah Nuñez, assistant director of Hispanic and Latino Initiatives at UofL. “This scholarship will make it possible for many current and future UofL students to attend college, graduate and become engaged and productive university and community members.” The fund already has received significant support from donors. For instance, the Louisville City Football Club has directed a portion of its ticket proceeds to the scholarship program. “We could not do this on our own” said Nuñez. “Or as we say in Spanish, ‘Juntos somos más fuertes’ – together we are stronger.”

SAM F. DAVIS TO REPLACE GREY ON 2016-17 ‘ROAD TO THE KENTUCKY DERBY’ SERIES The 38th running of the Sam F. Davis Stakes (Grade III) at Tampa Bay Downs will replace Canada’s Grey Stakes (GIII) on the list of 35-select races that comprise the 2016-17 “Road to the Kentucky Derby,” Churchill Downs officials announced last week. Since 2013, Churchill Downs Racetrack has used a sliding scale of points awarded to the top four finishers in choice races to determine preference for its 20-horse Kentucky Derby field, which will be run for the 143rd time on Saturday, May 6, 2017. As has been the case for the past three years, the Road to the Kentucky Derby “Prep Season” will commence at the home of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, September 17 with Churchill Downs’ $150,000 Iroquois (GIII) at 1 1/16 miles. Points awarded during the “Prep Season” are worth 10-4-2-1, respectively, except for the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, which is worth twice as much (20-8-4-2). The 16 significant events that comprise the “Kentucky Derby Championship Series” during the 10-week run-up to the first Saturday in May remain unchanged from a year ago. BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF KENTUCKIANA RECEIVES $305,062 GRANT FROM THE JAMES BROWN GRAHAM FOUNDATION The Boys & Girls Clubs of Kentuckiana (BGCK) is pleased to announce that it has received a $305,062 grant from the James Graham Brown Foundation. The money will be used to support the nonprofit’s Technology Infrastructure Initiative, which will help the organization build capacity and better serve youth by providing staff and Club members with updated tools and resources. The $305,062 grant will fund much-needed technological improvements that will allow BGCK staff to work more effectively and efficiently, and will better prepare them as they mentor, guide and empower local youth. The updated IT infrastructure will also serve as a recruiting tool, helping to increase the number of youth who attend the Club more frequently. These upgrades will also ensure that Club members have the tools they need to prepare to graduate from high school or college, and/ or get career-ready and prepared for their future. Lastly, this initiative will allow BGCK to hire an IT director for the organization to help oversee this project and make sure that the nonprofit’s technology systems are of the highest standards. COPPER & KINGS AMERICAN BRANDY CO. LAUNCHES FLOODWALL AMERICAN APPLE BRANDY Louisville’s Copper & Kings American Brandy Co. is launching its second aged apple brandy expression, the Floodwall, this fall. The apple brandy continues Copper & Kings’ tradition of celebrating its hometown and the Butchertown neighborhood. The iconic Louisville floodwall, finished in 1957, protects the city from the natural disaster of the flooding of the Ohio River. Stretching from Butchertown to south of Rubbertown, the floodwall is Louisville’s “brutalist work of art.” It stands high and proud and as founder Joe Heron says, “it feels like the castle walls.” A superb blend of superior, exclusively copper pot-distilled, apple brandy aged in bourbon barrels and 250-liter Oloroso sherry casks sourced in Spain, Floodwall American apple brandy has a minimum age of 4-year-old brandy and is a full bodied 100-proof alcohol strength. Floodwall is non-chill filtered with no post-distillation addition of apple flavor or essences, no boisé (oak flavor or infusion), sugar or caramel color for an authentic, uncorrupted natural flavor and natural color. “I love this apple brandy,” said Heron. “It’s such a reflection of Copper & Kings character and personality overall – it sets its own path, and it’s quite unafraid to be its own person. It has approachable swagger and confidence. American Apple Brandy from Butchertown, Louisville, Kentucky. Aye, American Apple Brandy.”

Jacqueline Hyberg Budde Jacqueline Hyberg Budde, also known as Jackie, passed away on September 1, 2016 in Sebring, Florida. Jackie was born in Philadelphia, PA, to Edmee’ (Worsching) and Thor Hyberg, and graduated from Temple University with a degree in Chemistry. She also minored in the romance languages. She earned her Master’s degree in Biochemistry from the University of Indiana, where she met her future husband and lifelong companion, Walter M. H. Budde, who was pursuing a Master’s degree in Organic Chemistry at the time. They moved to Iowa City where they were married on June 6, 1948 (over 68 years!), while Walter studied for his PhD in Organic Chemistry. Jackie was fluent in French and taught herself German and Russian. She was predeceased by her parents and her son Carl.

(Michael Leininger); Mernie (Jodi) and their children Derek (Molly), Amanda and Amy Budde; and Edward (Gina) and their children Sarah, Katrina and John Budde. Great-grandchildren include Henry and Vivian Budde. Jackie used her advanced degrees to teach chemistry and biochemistry at Mundelein College in Chicago. While raising her children, she translated chemical patents from French to English and volunteered as a librarian at various schools her children attended. After her children got older, she was a chemical research librarian at the Hormel Institute in Austin, MN. After retiring from the Hormel Institute, she still volunteered at public libraries in Bemidji, MN, and Sebring. Her greatest joys were reading several books a week, and completing numerous crossword puzzles daily. When a local paper’s puzzles proved inadequate, she would devour puzzle after puzzle from various New York Times books, and even completed puzzles in French. She also enjoyed listening to classical music, watching baseball, and the evening news. She tested into MENSA, but didn’t join because she didn’t see the point. Diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease in 2009, Jackie still maintained her voracious appetite for crossword puzzles and some reading, but would get frustrated on occasion.

Home in Louisville, KY at the age of 93. Margaret, raised by a noble, Christian gentleman, and a lovely, southern lady, was born and spent her first 12 years in Winston-Salem, NC. In 1935, her daddy’s job moved the family to Cincinnati, OH. After high school, she attended the University of Cincinnati where she met and married the love of her life, William J. Wilson.

When the war ended, they returned to Cincy, and Bill completed his senior year and received his Masters in Organic Chemistry. Margaret was employed by an engineering firm. In 1953, Margaret and Bill moved to Louisville, where Bill took a job with Reichhold Chemical, Inc. By 1956, Margaret, mother of three, had busy, happy days with school, ball games, and piano lessons. The family attended St. Paul’s Episcopal Church where Margaret taught Sunday school, served on the Altar Guild, and worked with the Churchwomen. She was a member of Norton Women’s Board, as well as the Episcopal Church Home Women’s Board. Upon retirement, Bill and Margaret moved to a patio home on the campus of the Episcopal Church Home.

UofL Writing a New Narrative

UofL Writing a New Narrative

hen you’ve written about Louisville Cardinal athletics as a fan for, say, 10 years or so, there are certain stories or themes that you get accustomed to covering.

“It’s NCAA Tournament time, and Rick Pitino has a team capable of making a run.”

MIKE RUTHERFORD @cardchronicle

“This latest result proves that bigger things are on the way for Louisville football.” “That win was awesome and I enjoyed it.” “That loss was terrible and I hated it.” The aftermath of Louisville football’s 63-20 torching of second-ranked and perennial national powerhouse Florida State has left Cardinal fans – and those who cover the program – with three storylines that are being legitimately broached for the first time. 1. LOUISVILLE IS THE BIGGEST STORY IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL RIGHT NOW Die-hard UofL football fans have spent the bulk of their existence playing the “no respect” card, and deservedly so. Regardless of when your fandom began, if you’ve donned red and black for a significant chunk of your life, you’ve had to deal with the “basketball school with two star recruits that doesn’t really play anybody” insults. Those days appear to be a thing of the past. This week, the powers that be on ESPN, CBS and Fox sports talk shows have treated Louisville’s blowout of the Seminoles and subsequent rise to prominence like it’s a Tom Brady controversy. It’s been nearly impossible to glance up at your TV at any point this week and not see the Cardinals either being talked about or about to be talked about. The pollsters are also true believers. Louisville received six first-place votes in the most recent Associated Press Top 25, the first and only time it has received such an honor since earning a single nod for the top spot in the 2005 preseason poll. Those votes helped the Cards ascend all the way to No. 3, matching the highest ranking in program history. Expect this team to occupy that spot longer than the one week it was there back in 2006.

2. LAMAR JACKSON IS THE FAVORITE TO WIN THE HEISMAN TROPHY

Trophy campaign for FSU running back Dalvin Cook, the same player who had terrorized UofL in each of the past two seasons.

This is no longer just a wild opinion or the pipe dream of an intoxicated fan. Las Vegas has taken Lamar Jackson from 100-1 preseason shot to win the most fabled individual award in all of sports and made him the 6-5 Heisman favorite after just three weeks of the 2016 season.

Louisville would likely need 15 wins to claim a national title, which means they’re only 1/5 of the way there. Still, that grandest of all dreams feels like more of a realistic possibility now than it ever has before. What a difference a year makes. VT

It took just three games and three ridiculous performances for Jackson to make the leap from “potential breakout sophomore” to the biggest name in college football. That’s not hyperbole either. Jackson’s numbers and his flare for making the highlight reel play had ESPN analyst Danny Kanell referring to him as “the type of player you see once a decade in college football” earlier this week. It had Dallas Cowboys superstar Dez Bryant predicting that Jackson could wind up being the best player in college football history. It also had Michael Vick, the first true dual threat quarterback star, saying that Jackson was “five times better” than Vick was when he played at Virginia Tech. The Heisman isn’t won in September, but if both Louisville and Jackson keep doing what they’re doing, this December could be one of the most special months ever for Cardinal fans. 3. LOUISVILLE IS A LEGITIMATE THREAT TO WIN THE NATIONAL TITLE – IN FOOTBALL Sure, we’ve talked about it before, but there’s never been a Louisville football team that has appeared to be as equipped to square off against any other squad in the country as this 2016 group. As staggering as the final score against Florida State was, even that didn’t tell the full story of just how completely Louisville dominated that game. The Cardinals dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball, ran the ball at will, gave Jackson all the time he needed to throw and effectively ended the early Heisman

A game that began with a stirring introduction by The Greatest, Muhammad Ali, turned into one of the greatest victories in the history of University of Louisville football on September 17 at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. The matchup didn’t just result in a 62-20 win for the Cardinals over the Seminoles but it also launched the now third-ranked program into a national conversation regarding college football playoffs and firmly planted Lamar Jackson into Heisman debates for weeks to come.

Wind, Fire and a New QB

thought I’d be writing this week about how wrong it would be to discount the Wildcats’ first win of the season just because it came against an outclassed non-conference opponent.

Catnip STEVE KAUFMAN

What I didn’t think I’d be writing about was Stephen Johnson. And Benny Snell Jr. And C.J. Conrad. And Landon Young. And Charles Walker.

I didn’t think Saturday would be about our two local football teams scoring 125 points – what??? – and half of those coming from the Kentucky offense. It wasn’t pretty. The newly minted defense, now run by Mark Stoops, gave up 42 points and 500 yards, not what you were expecting from the guy who once ran the Florida State defense. (Oh, that defense – okay, not fair to hold Saturday’s Seminoles game against him.) But they really buckled down in the second half. They finally got off the field on third down. They gave up just one touchdown. They bothered the Aggies’ quarterback, Tyler Rogers. No, this game was about the offense. Especially Johnson, Snell and the offensive line. When Drew Barker was wheeled out of the stadium, I wasn’t particularly optimistic about his backup. Not after the Florida game. But Johnson was poised and mobile and, after a shaky start, showed a strong arm. We knew he could run. Can’t say the same S E P T E M B E R 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

thing for Snell, although Tom Leach and Freddie Maggard were saying on the radio that he’d looked great in the Blue-White scrimmage. Maybe, but nobody was talking about Snell until Saturday. And likely still wouldn’t be talking about him today if Jojo Kemp hadn’t been held out of the New Mexico State game.

A few years ago, the New York Giants had a running back corps they called earth, wind and fire. Kentucky doesn’t have the earth yet, but Snell and Boom Williams showed some wind and fire: Boom doing his survey of the line play before choosing his opening and blowing through it; Snell surveying nothing but the open field in front of him, taking the ball and firing forward. And if it meant carrying a few people on his back for a few extra yards, well, hang on for the ride. Conrad did what good tight ends are supposed to do. Whether he was the first or fourth option, he caught the ball when it was thrown to him and he sure knew what to do afterward. And, by the way, tight ends are also supposed to block, which is what Conrad and Greg Hart did all afternoon. That may be critical going forward if Johnson remains the Cats’ QB. When you have a mobile option quarterback, tight ends are supposed to block on the sweep and also make themselves available when plays break down and quarterbacks scamper. I was also pleased to see Derrick Baity get that interception. He and Chris Westry were supposed to represent the Stoops Era of shut-down defense, and they were appropriately cocky going into the season. During the past week, after two embarrass-

ing losses, Baity was near-tears apologetic. Westry seemed humbled too. Good to see them working to get that swagger back. On the offensive side, Eddie Gran had said all week, with similar humility, “We’ve got to get back to practice, back to the drawing board and work on fundamentals.” Fundamentals? You’d think after an extensive summer camp and two weeks into the season, the fundamentals would be down pat. There’s a lot of veteran experience sprinkled around, among the running backs and on the offensive line. Gran came to Lexington with a profile as an intense, demanding taskmaster. Everything about him suggested somebody who doesn’t sleep late and linger over a doughnut and the morning crossword puzzle. But he’s also the third offensive coordinator in three years here. There’s clearly work to be done, things to be reversed and unlearned. And while playing in the SEC is the Ph.D. seminar of college football, some of his players are still in freshman biology. I don’t want to seem too weak-kneed and woozy about one game. There are still a great many questions to be answered, and the SEC comes calling again on Saturday. South Carolina is 2-1 but has scored just 47 points in three games. The Gamecocks beat East Carolina by five, Vanderbilt by three. They’re playing with a true freshman quarterback. They gave up 519 yards last week. They’re beatable. But Kentucky has to step up. Again. Every game presents a new and difficult test for this UK team. That’s the Stoops Paradigm right now.

It was a statement heard loud and clear by the college football world. UofL is a contender. On a day when the Cards took the field with Muhammad Ali screaming from the jumbotron, they dismantled No. 2 Florida State in every phase of the game. The end result was a 63-20 UofL win – the most points ever given up by the Seminoles. Cards sophomore quarterback Lamar Jackson continued his amazing start. He rushed for 146 yards and four touchdowns and threw for 216 and another score. Senior running back Brandon Radcliff rushed for 118 yards and a touchdown, and sophomore defensive back Jaire Alexander amassed 130 yards in punt returns, including a 69-yard third quarter touchdown. All that in front of a national TV audience with ESPN’s “College GameDay” in the building. Here is a sampling of the post-game reaction from what was the biggest regular season win in UofL history. Lamar got so much attention this week and there was so much hype. What did he show you?

Petrino: Oh, certainly. He’s upset that he missed two throws in the first quarter. One would have been a touchdown, another one would have been Bobby Petrino: I’m just proud of a third down conversion. The timhow he prepared for the game. How ing was just off a little bit.

It wasn’t his best throw of his life, but the interception was on me. powers in this division? Petrino: It’s a good win for us. We look at the start of the season and we know that everything has to go through Florida State and Clemson, besides everybody else has really good players, and you have to play those games and win too. That’s the beauty of being in this conference is everybody we play is going to have really good players and be very well coached. So you have to come to play each and every week. It’s a lot of fun. I enjoy it. Again I can’t tell you how proud I am of our players and our assistant coaches. Our assistant coaches have been working on this game for a long time – since last winter – and I think their hard work and dedication really showed up. Lamar said right after the game that he would give himself a D. After watching the tape, what would you give him? Petrino: I wouldn’t want him to be my teacher, that’s for sure. We all know he wasn’t a D. He’s a great player and he made huge plays in that game to allow us to win the game. He’s being a little bit hard on himself, probably being a little bit funny too. He knows he wasn’t a D. As scary as it is, doesn’t he still have plenty of room to improve? PHOTO COURTESY OF BMB PRODUCTIONS

In the moment, what does this win mean for UofL football? Brandon Radcliff: It’s a historic game for our fans, for our community. It’s a great feeling to come out here and be ready to come out here and do what we do.

Jaire Alexander: It was great blocking. I saw the hole and I hit it. A shout out to my blockers. It wouldn’t be possible without my blockers. Does this put you on the map? Alexander: We’re getting there – we’re not where we want to be, but we’re getting there. How much can a great punt returner get in the head of a coach? Petrino: I think they’ll respect the fact that he’s a great returner and that we worked hard on blocking and doing things right. We had a great game plan for what Florida State did on their punt team, which gave him room to make plays. I remember going against a great punt returner one time and we planned on kicking the ball out of bounds – we made a mistake and didn’t get it out of bounds and he ran it back for a touchdown on us. So I’ll probably never forget that one. VT

Is it extra special to do it against Florida State? Radcliff: We worked hard all summer. We told ourselves that we were going to get this game and that’s what happened, man. We came out here and we grinded for it. Being from Florida, how will it resonate in the world of college football? Radcliff: As soon as we got in the ACC, we had a hump to get over, and that was Florida State, Clemson, those type of teams. We were looking forward to this. We worked hard. These are the

Shamrocks Look to Cash in With a Championship

ndoubtedly, in the past few years, the odds at Vegas Insider would be in favor of Trinity soccer winning the 2016 state championship in Kentucky. Rightfully so – the program has racked up over 60 wins in the last four seasons to only a number of losses that you can count on two hands.

also going to need a bit of luck for it to happen.”

High School Sports Report

RANDY WHETSTONE JR.

Some would say though, for a team that has won the seventh region championship and gone to the state tournament in three consecutive seasons, they just can’t seem to get over the hump and convert those wins into a championship. With the championship in mind as the goal for this year, Coach Dale Helfrich and his Trinity Shamrocks believe the odds are truly in their favor, and it may take a little luck from their own shamrock. “We feel like we have the tools every season to compete,” says Helfrich. “If the guys are willing to put in the work, then we have the resources to get them to that platform. In order for it to go our way, we have to focus on the things we can control and our effort and our approach to training, practice and games. At the end of the day, I have found that you are

If you know anything about Trinity’s athletes, you know they are driven young men who come from good families and strive to be the best that they can be. It’s no different with the soccer team. For a program with a plethora of resources, Helfrich knows that success is not produced by having the top equipment.

“I think a lot of times players have the fancy shoes and all the resources they need at their disposal to make them a better player, but they are not quite where they need to be to have the work ethic to match,” he adds. “So I try to instill confidence in them and get them working hard. I want them to see what they can be if they do put in the work.” Hard work is indispensable for the Shamrocks. Senior Cameron Smith says the guys work day in and day out with the conviction that, “When Trinity soccer comes around, you’re not playing for yourself, you are playing for each other,” and that egos must be put aside for the greater good of the team. Senior Luke Williams, who carries a load of responsibility on his shoulders from his performance to being a key leader in his fourth and final season, admits that playing for a program with a championship mindset has been tough. However, the light at the end of the tunnel has

been growth in the team’s mental toughness to believe they can indeed achieve their championship aspirations. He says 20-win seasons are great, but it remains as only a regular season accomplishment without a state crown. “It is great that we have won the seventh region the last three years, but we need to build that next step. We have already shown we can do that, and now we need to go to the state tournament level and win that.” Considering the success other athletic programs have had at Trinity over the years, it makes one wonder if there is ever any pressure on the soccer program to maintain its success within the Shamrock family. The guys agreed that it’s not so much pressure as it is their drive and eagerness to sustain performing at a high level. “I wouldn’t say we feel any pressure from that – it is more of excitement and eagerness to continue the success within the program,” adds Smith. “From year to year, we’re not thinking, ‘We have to get this done or else.’ I think it is more we are excited to get the chance to continue the success within the program.”

Senior Cameron Smith.

On how Trinity soccer may stack up against other programs in the athletic department, Helfrich says, “They may get some pressure from the fellow students that they feel they have a standard to hold based on the other programs. I’ve been at this long enough that I put that pressure on myself and the team I am coaching to be the best that they can every day. So I don’t know if it is pressure as it is the amount of drive they have. Wherever we stack up, we stack up, but as long as they’re giving their best, that’s what matters the most.” VT COURTESY PHOTOS

BALLARD vs. MANUAL In a shutout that preserved the Crimsons’ undefeated season record, Manual took out Ballard on the Bruins’ home turf on September 16. The first half saw only Manual score, and in the second half, they attempted only one pass, holding Ballard to minus-36 rushing yards. Meanwhile, the Crimsons rushed for 189 yards on 51 carries (3.7 yards per attempt). A highlight of the game was senior fullback John Riley’s 14-yard touchdown run, which, with less than three minutes remaining in the third quarter, yielded the game’s final score of 13-0.

And, as most anybody

In the planning for months, this wedding was originally scheduled to have the ceremony and seated dinner reception in a sunken colonnaded garden under the open sky. Plan B, called “What if it rains,” was always in place as a backup. On Wednesday before the Saturday wedding, based on the forecast, Plan B went into action. An enormous 100+-foot-long tent was erected for the reception with an adjacent secondary tent, not quite as large, for the ceremony if necessary. All of this was if the weather scuttled the original plans to have the whole thing under an open sky. Late Wednesday into early Thursday, the weather forecast looked even more dire. Moving the entire event to Friday, which was the next day, was even briefly considered. This would cut 24 hours out of the setup and decorating schedule, not to mention notifying 250 guests of the change in plans. Fortunately, for a lot of reasons, Saturday soon remained the day of choice with a modification of some details.

With such good music, the whole party had no problem dancing for the balance of the evening right up to the time when an eye-popping fireworks show and the happy couple’s departure in a spectacular black Duesenberg ended the evening.

It should be mentioned at this point that amidst all of this wonder, fun and flower-filled glamor, the parents of the bride, Kevin and Sandy Collins, made a substantial financial gift to the Heuser Hearing & Language Academy in order to secure the wedding’s location.

SPOTLIGHT

Bourbon Bash

An event that celebrates Kentucky’s native spirit, Bourbon Bash will be held at the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft on October 1. Proceeds from the evening benefit the museum’s programs and exhibitions for the coming year, and here to provide some more information on the event is KMAC Communications Manager Emily Miles. What is Bourbon Bash? Bourbon Bash is Louisville’s original bourbon-themed event. What began as Bourbon Ball nearly 35 years ago is now a fun and engaging evening held to celebrate art and bourbon in the newly renovated KMAC Museum. This year, the event is Saturday, October 1 from 8 p.m. to midnight at 715 W. Main St. Tickets are $100 per person. What can guest expect at the event? Come early or come late! Guests can expect tastings featuring 12 of Kentucky’s finest bourbons and unique culinary pairings by Bobby Benjamin of Butchertown Grocery on the second floor as well as – for the first time ever – a very special Bourbon University tasting experience and game area on the third floor. Throughout the evening, Bourbon Bash

guests will interact with notable guest artists and one-time art experiences while enjoying live music and DJ sets! Why is the event important for KMAC? Bourbon Bash is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate our donors and provide the chance for donors and community members to interact with artists from Louisville and around the country. Perhaps most importantly, all proceeds from Bourbon Bash 2016 support museum exhibitions and outreach for the coming year. How has the event grown over the years? After beginning as the original bourbon event in Louisville, Bourbon Bash has transformed to fit the new face of KMAC Museum. The Bash now appeals to a much broad-

er audience and provides greater access to the museum space in a new, exciting way. This year, we are expecting 400 guests to fill all three public floors of the museum! How do you hope the event changes in years to come? It is always a pleasure to welcome visiting artists and new artworks into the space for one night only. In years to come, we hope to see even more interaction with artists and the Louisville public. And of course, new and exciting bourbon brands alongside our Kentucky favorites! Is it too late to get tickets? Not at all – but tickets are limited! Only $100 per person, with $80 tax deductible. Visit kmacmuseum.org to purchase. VT

bronze is best MAKEUP BY J MICHAEL’S SPA AND SALON

The perfect look to take you from summer to fall is a bronzed color. Using shadows, bronzers and lip sticks in the same color palette is one of the hottest trends for fall. Dark golden browns on the lids accentuated with a deep brown eyeliner will give a soft smoky eye look. A beautiful bronzer blended on the cheekbones will highlight the shape of your face. Light tans to dark chestnut colors on the lips are neutral but still complement all skin tones and show off beautiful lips. This look will take you from day to night.

ARTIST TIP: Use darker browns in the crease of the eye and softer shades on the lid and blend with a clean brush. Smile while applying bronzer with a blush brush and blend along the cheek bone toward the hairline. Line the lips and fill with desired lipstick or gloss to top it off!

magine a state of perfect relaxation, one where your body and mind are free from any distractions. No sight. No sound. Even the pull of gravity no longer a hindrance. Floatation therapy provides just that environment, allowing the body to heal and the mind to create.

Health & Wellness

The water temperature and room temperature are maintained at around 91 to 93 degrees, about the same as your skin. “The air and water are really seamless,” Powers said. “You lose track of where your body ends and the water begins. You can really get outside your body.”

While floating, the body lowers its levels of the stress-producing hormone cortisol and releases dopamine and endorphins – the so-called happy hormones.

Also known as sensory deprivation, restricted environmental stimulation therapy or simply floating, floatation therapy has been linked to improvements in arthritis, sleep disorders, depression, blood pressure, muscle and joint pain, and more. Louisvillians can discover the benefits of floatation therapy thanks in large part to the efforts of Greg Ellis and his partner Chelsea Powers. The pair worked for more than a year to update local health regulations, and they opened Weightless Float Center in Distillery Commons April 11. “It’s an experience that your mind has never encountered before,” Ellis says. “This is totally different to the human experience.” The sensation of defying gravity is created by a high concentration of Epsom salt dissolved in about 10 inches of water in a float pod or tank.

Epsom salt is not actually salt. It’s a mineral compound of magnesium and sulfate that has long been used in homes for a variety of health and beauty reasons. Since magnesium – one of six essential macro-minerals in the human body – is readily absorbed through the skin, a float can be an optimal way to increase levels that studies have shown to be deficient in 80 percent of Americans. Floatation therapy has been used for pain management for chronic conditions including arthritis and fibromyalgia. The increased blood circulation accelerates muscle tissue repair and the Epsom salt draws out toxins. The buoyancy of the water takes pressure off the spine and joints, allowing them to relax and realign. Benefits are mental as well. “Your brain is like a house with all the lights on,” Ellis relates. “3040 minutes into a float you attain Theta wave state. It’s like you’re going through and clicking off the lights you don’t need for a while.” Theta state is one of very deep relaxation, usually only attained during REM sleep or through extensive meditation training. Theta brain waves are associated with memory and creativity. Weightless Float Center offers two different style tanks: One is a box-like unit while the other is an ADA-compliant float pod. “It’s a ‘Mork and Mindy’ space-pod looking thing,” Ellis says with a laugh. “It’s not as intimidating.” Each tank contains controls for lights and music, but “the original concept was sensory deprivation,” says Ellis. “I highly recommend lights off and no music.” Floating evolved from the 1954 sensory deprivation experiments of neuroscientist John C. Lilly. Although his experiments were a bit outré, the unintended discovery of numerous health

Effortless Relaxation benefits from the practice spurred interest. The first commercial float tank center opened in Beverly Hills, California, in 1973, and the Float Tank Association was formed in 1981. Although still not mainstream, floating is becoming more common. Ohio State University football players use floatation therapy to reduce pain, muscle tension, blood pressure and inflammation. According to Aaron Thomson with Floatation Locations, there were 85 float centers in the U.S. in April 2011. “We currently have 325 float centers in the U.S. listed on our site and 662 worldwide,” he says.

“Your brain is like a house with all the lights on. 30-40 minutes into a float you attain Theta wave state. It’s like you’re going through and clicking off the lights you don’t need for a while.” Float tanks are sanitary. With 900 pounds of Epsom salt, “the water is more dead than the Dead Sea,” says Ellis. “No microorganisms can survive in it.” Beyond that, the water is filtered three times between each client and treated with UV light. Clients shower before entering the tank to remove any lotions, oils, or sweat. Ellis assures, “It’s cleaner than any pool or Jacuzzi you’ve ever been in.” “It’s been really cool to see the demographics of people coming in,” Powers adds. “It’s not just one type. We’ve had everything from people suffering with PTSD to athletes, to couples coming for date night.” VT

Life

n February 2013, I had a few hours to kill in Nashville. Simply out of curiosity, I wandered into Grimey’s, the world-famous record store. I’d been inside for maybe 20 minutes when I noticed a CD with a black and white cover featuring the simple white text, “The Lumineers.” The name was immediately recognizable – this was the band behind the infectious single “Ho Hey,” which had permeated nearly every radio format the previous fall. I, along with the rest of the world, loved the song, so I decided to buy the album, supposedly to hear more of the upbeat and widely accessible sound that characterized “Ho Hey.” I got back in my car and started playing “The Lumineers.” Within seconds of hearing the opening of the album’s first track, “Flowers in Your Hair,” it was exceedingly clear to me that this band had more of a profound depth of sincerity than I ever could have expected. The Lumineers first began to take us, I’d almost be, like, shape in the early 2000s when Jeremiin disbelief,” says the ah Fraites and Wesley Schultz startband’s drummer, ed playing shows together in New pianist and co-writYork following the death of Fraiter Jeremiah Fraites’ 19-year-old brother.

One of the most famous and talked-about aspects of the band beyond their musical repertoire is the story of the Craigslist ad. Much like how U2 was formed via a post on a bulletin board, the fact that one of modern folkrock’s most prominent bands was brought together in such a serendipitous and providential way is not lost on the group. “It’s funny – if I heard another band had the same story as S E P T E M B E R 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

in the midst of a world tour promoting “Cleopatra,” which will make a stop at Louisville’s Waterfront Park on September 23. Though it’s the newer material that’s of the most central focus to the band currently, it’s certain that there are many who still most notably associate The Lumineers with “Ho Hey.” While the single is unequivocally deserving of its universal acclaim, the scope of The Lumineers’ material

is so much broader than that; whereas “Ho Hey” isn’t terribly specific in its narrative and seems to rely more on its catchy lyrics and stomp-clap rhythm, much of the rest of their catalog is more stripped down and deeply personal, full of complex significance and true, raw emotion. Fraites is of course cognizant of the fact that there will undoubtedly be concert-goers who come expecting to hear a bunch of “Ho Hey”s, and he admits it’s a strange and sometimes unsettling situation to be in. “I don’t know what’s worse or what’s harder – being obscure or being ‘known’ for something,” he muses. “It reminds me of the old days, five or six years ago, when we would play and nobody knew any songs, which in and of itself was a

people who thought they knew us as a specific band or genre I think could be surprised a lot by listening to the second album because I really do think it’s a different album. It’s still a Lumineers album, but it is very different.”

huge uphill battle. Nobody knew any songs, nobody knew your band name, nobody gave a shit where you were from or why you wanted to become a musician, and you had to play these clubs and venues and house shows and smelly bars for no money. And now it’s the opposite where we are selling out much larger venues, but it is kind of an uphill battle in some regards because you know that you might just be known for a few songs or might just be known for a particular genre but people don’t know why you’re successful, people don’t know why you are what you are.” If there’s a question among those who maybe have heard a couple songs but aren’t truly familiar with the band, it’s certainly that quandary of identity: Who are The Lumineers? What is their sound? How sincere is their commitment to this tremendously heartfelt and contemplative Americana? These and more are all questions Fraites, Schultz and PHOTOS COURTESY OF BIG HASSLE

Pekarek sought to answer with the release of “Cleopatra.” “With the second album, we really wanted to come out of the gate swinging – we really wanted it to be great,” Fraites explains. “In a perfect world, we really wanted to be even better than the first album just to show people, you know, we’re not just known for a couple songs or we’re not just trying to do this supposed genre.” Moreover, as “Cleopatra” indeed contains more of a blend of the quieter narratives and the uptempo sing-alongs, it strikes the listener as perhaps more comprehensive, more demonstrative of the band itself realizing and developing its true identity beyond the standards of roots-revival. “Maybe the first album had this particular sound, and then … I think the second album is more robust, I feel like it’s more mature, I feel like it’s deeper – whatever that means,” Fraites describes. “I feel like it has more authenticity and sincerity where I think

It is different, but in the best way. “Cleopatra” is almost like a synthesis of the first album – it takes what truly worked on the first record and expounds upon it. Everything about it is more deliberate, more refined, more, as Fraites describes, “plugged in.” And fans are responding. Two songs on the new album that Fraites and Schultz didn’t expect the audience to really gravitate toward are “Angela” and “My Eyes.” However, both those numbers, along with “Patience,” a piano solo for Fraites that follows “My Eyes,” have received wonderfully unexpected adoration, and that, according to Fraites, is one of the most significant highlights of being on the road – for people to come to a show and, maybe they know both albums or maybe they just know “Ho Hey,” discover the purest form of the multifaceted and unwavering authenticity of The Lumineers. “I think that’s really cool,” Fraites affirms. “It’s like, ‘Nice, people are not just waiting for ‘Ho Hey’ or ‘Stubborn Love’ or ‘Ophelia’ – people are down with our band!’ And that’s the best thing you could ever ask for.” VT The Lumineers will play Louisville’s Waterfront Park on September 23.

Somehow, after so much time between now and that summer night in 1999, the higher-ups of a Hollywood studio wanting to cash in on a familiar title in their possession duped me into seeing the new movie with a small unresponsive audience.

gy, as if going into a cursed forest with multi-angle coverage will make them safer, gives director Adam Wingard more freedom to shoot everything less like a legit documentary and more like a supernatural shaky-cam thriller. It is interesting that as characters are offed, the camera angles become fewer and the footage more chaotic, but it’s never believable. The movie still manages to get to a place halfway through that is so genuinely terrifying that it makes me wish the movie had abandoned all the predictable jump-scares and startle tactics surrounding it. There are some nightmare-like concepts involving time displacement, gruesome body horror and a claustrophobic situation that made me squirm in my seat. It’s fair to say that this movie delivers on its scares but without thanks to its chosen style. Fake documentaries are supposed to give a story the opportunity to thrive on major limitations, but for nearly two decades, they’ve incorporated the lazy excuses of multiple camera sources and unbelievably brave operators with top-quality lighting and sound that make you wonder why this approach was worth risking the motion sickness of moviegoers. When leaving the theater, I only took comfort in knowing that its 2016 audience was in no way confused over the film’s authenticity. I suppose there are scarier things in the news. VT

As a sequel (which only acknowledges events from the first film) it’s got an admirable approach comparable to how “Aliens” managed to expand on everything established in “Alien” with bigger, louder and more devastating scenarios taking place in the same environment as the original. The plot involves the younger brother of the lead documentarian from the original who has spent his life obsessed with the disappearance of his sister and the recovered footage that suggested a small New England town’s superstitions of a forest demon to be true.

The show opens with the overture to “Coriolan,” a tragic 1804 play by Heinrich Joseph Von Collins about the ancient Roman leader Gaius Marcius Coriolanus. Most people are more familiar with Shakespeare’s “Coriolanus,” about the same subject. The overture, which Bernhardt calls “extremely dramatic,” was written as a prelude to Collins’ play. Also on the roster is the overture to a rarely-to never performed 1801 ballet called “The Creatures of Prometheus.” “‘The Creatures of Prometheus’ happens to be Beethoven’s only full-length ballet and this overture is only about five minutes long,” Bernhardt says. “It’s an effervescent, absolute charmer of an overture.” That’s just a taste of the Beethoven buffet. Bernhardt will also serve up the jovial and lively “Turkish March,” the first movement of the Sixth Symphony, known as the “Pastoral,” and the second movement of the First Symphony. The LO is eager to get the Music Without Borders shows on the road. “This is just a really important part of the vision of the Louisville Orchestra,” Kipe says. “Being out and about is just as important as playing a great concert at Whitney Hall.

It was the year of the My Lai massacre investigation, the Cambodia invasion, Woodstock and the Moratorium to End the War. The American death toll in Vietnam was approaching 50,000, and the ascendant counterculture was challenging nearly every aspect of American society. Former Newsweek White House

correspondent, author and Louisville native Clara Bingham’s latest book, “Witness to the Revolution,” offers a unique look at this tumultuous period in American history. Woven together from original interviews, the book provides a firsthand account of this turbulent time from those closest to the action – the activists, organizers, radicals and resisters. Join Clara Bingham for a discussion of her book on Tuesday, September 27 at 7 p.m. at the Main Library. The event is free, but tickets are required.

DEAR ABBY

Husband’s New Acting Career Gets Bad Reviews From Family

It actor. He is working hard on could be anything, really, like some gadJEANNE get he wants to check out. auditions and shoots, and I PHILLIPS am very proud of him. HowA neat and tidy house is important ever, when he left his job, it felt to me to me. This is nothing new; it has been going on like a pronouncement rather than the during our entire marriage. What can I say to him to get him to change his ways? – ANTI-CLUTresult of our usual mutual decisions. TER IN IOWA

Unfortunately, I communicated my frustration to family members at the time, and they have completely written Boyd off. They don’t want to talk to him or hear news about him, and he is not welcome in their homes. Boyd didn’t take this well. He has, in return, written THEM off. It has reached the point that I can’t share news about them with him. I have had to take down family photos – which was my choice – but it felt necessary. The irony is my family felt he had created undue stress for me, but the breach in family harmony has been far more stressful than my husband’s career change. Any thoughts on how to bring detente to this situation? It’s keeping me up at night. – ACTOR’S WIFE IN ATLANTA DEAR WIFE: Have you told your family that by shunning your husband they have caused you more stress than his decision – however one-sided it may have been – to become an actor? If you haven’t you should because it is causing discord in your marriage. Your relatives do not have the right to punish your husband for his career choice, and you should not have encouraged or allowed them to alienate him. You may want to remind them that you and Boyd are a unit and if they care about more contact with you, they will bury the hatchet. Or perhaps you could convince everyone to agree to family counseling. The ball is now in your court because you are the person who started it rolling. ••• DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been married for a very long time and have a good marriage. However, he has one annoying habit that drives me crazy. We live in a small house, S E P T E M B E R 2 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

DEAR ANTI-CLUTTER: Probably not much at this point. But I can offer this insight. The tendency to do what your husband is doing is a sign of OCD, an anxiety disorder. For your husband, letting go of things he “may” want to look at “sometime” can be emotionally upsetting. A doctor might be able to help your husband, but that would necessitate your husband admitting that what he has been doing is causing a problem. ••• DEAR ABBY: How do I tell my ex I no longer want to babysit her son? The boy is not mine. When we lived together she found a job, and I told her I would watch her son on weekends while she was working. I moved out of the apartment we shared a year ago. Between working nights at my job and her son having special needs and requiring full-time attention, I’m exhausted and losing patience. Is there a graceful way to bow out? – GETTING STRESSED OUT IN VIRGINIA DEAR GETTING STRESSED: Probably not. However, because you feel the responsibility has become more than you are able to handle, you need to tell your ex she needs to make other arrangements for a sitter for her son. Because your relationship with her ended a year ago, I doubt she’ll be surprised. But do not expect her to welcome the news or like it. ••• DEAR ABBY: I can’t wait until election season is over. One side of my family is liberal; the other side is conservative. At my request, they don’t argue when we are all together. There are occasional disagreements, but fortunately, they never escalate. The problem is, when I spend time with any of

them separately I am lectured nonstop about the “evils” of the other side. They don’t quit. I just want to scream, “Shut up! Shut up! I don’t care!” I am at the point that I no longer want to vote. I don’t know what to do. There’s no way I can avoid my family completely. Please advise. – “SHUT UP!” IN NEW MEXICO DEAR S.U.: Please don’t allow your family drama to stop YOU from voting. Try this: The next time your relatives inject politics into the conversation, smile, look them in the eye and say, “Let’s talk about something pleasant, shall we?” and change the subject. ••• DEAR ABBY: I’m currently interning with a government-contracted group. Part of my job involves working with LGBT rights organizations. Recently, at a meeting with my boss and several representatives of these organizations, the topic of fairness in the workplace was mentioned. I was asked what my experience was, and I shared that I thought the workplace was fair and my experience was fine. I didn’t think about it at the time, but I now realize I was being asked how my experience was as an LGBT person. In light of this, my boss has nominated me for a diversity award. The problem is I’m a heterosexual female, and I think he promoted me for the honor because he thinks I am gay. How should I handle this? Do I need to go on record to my boss that I am straight, that I have a boyfriend, and he misunderstood me? I don’t want this to come back to haunt me, but I’m afraid addressing it may ruin my credibility because it has taken so long for me to address it. My sexual orientation is obviously not something of great interest at work, but I feel I am living a terrible lie and I don’t know how to fix this. – ASHAMED IN D.C. DEAR ASHAMED: No one should feel compelled to disclose one’s sexual orientation at work, no matter the circumstances. That said, in this particular case, go to your boss before this goes any further. Explain to him privately that you didn’t realize when the question was asked that anyone would presume you were gay. If you accept the diversity award without clearing the air first, it could potentially be a source of embarrassment and jeopardize your credibility. ••• Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

PUZZLES

pets of the week Meet Nicki, a sweet 2-year-old girl who came to the Kentucky Humane Society all the way from an overcrowded shelter in our nation’s capital. She loves unlimited lap time and treats at the end of every walk. Nicki is extra-special in that she came to us testing positive for heartworms. She’s almost completed her treatment but will need a family who understands her condition and allows her extra rest while she recovers. Nicki has lived with other pups in the past but will need to meet any potential canine housemates to make sure they share similar paw-litical views. She is spayed, micro-chipped and up to date on her vaccinations. You can meet Nicki at our East Campus, 1000 Lyndon Lane in Louisville. This is Ross, a high-energy and eager-forattention 5-month-old kitten. He loves to chase his toys around and needs someone to play with him to burn out his extra energy. After that, he loves to snuggle. If someone can look past his “kitten crazies” and his high energy level, he’d be the perfect pet to take home. Ross is like a child, but at least he won’t grow up to take the car or break curfew! He is neutered, micro-chipped and up to date on all vaccinations. Come meet Ross today at the Kentucky Humane Society adoption center in the Fern Creek Feeders Supply, 6820 Bardstown Road.
