Pointe Your Don’t Be Alarmed, Be Aware Vehicle in the Right Direction Mother Nature’s Pest Control addresses potential insect-related issues not to be ignored: Zika virus, termites, bedbugs, and fleas and ticks.

By Duane Blankenship

South Pointe Chrysler Jeep Dodge offers outstanding repairs and maintenance services, no matter where you purchased your vehicle.

Most of us are becoming aware of the Zika virus disease, heretofore confined to Central and South America. The first case of Zika in the United States was

recently reported from Dallas, Texas. The virus is spread to people through mosquito bites, and the most common symptoms are fever, rash, joint pain

and conjunctivitis (red eyes). Justin Buckmaster and Sheila Disler of Mother Nature’s Pest Control & Lawn Care say there (continued on page 24)

South Pointe Chrysler Jeep Dodge Service Director Tim McNabb and his service team will always make you feel welcome.

If you want to feel good and look good for your busy spring calendar – weddings, graduations, proms, baby showers, perhaps an important job interview – don’t forget about your nails. Chipped polish, nails that have been chewed down, brittleness and discoloration – unsightly nails can ruin your entire look. Quality is important in finding a manicurist. Stopping into a random nail salon can be risky. (continued on page 24)

ASK THE MONEY MAVEN STRAIGHT-FORWARD, NO-NONSENSE TALK ABOUT YOUR MONEY

Riding the Bucking Bull 5 Steps to Overcoming Fear About The Market BY MELANIE HASTYGRANT

Well folks, I can surely say…This ain’t our first rodeo when it comes to the ups and downs of the stock market. It seems we have quite the perfect storm brewing here in Oklahoma. Between oil prices plunging, the stock market in correction, high Oklahoma jobless claims, and the extreme negativity of this election cycle, it has created a tornado of panic and fear. It feels as though folks are holding on for dear life. While fear is an understandable emotion, if you act irrationally during periods of stress, you will likely regret it. The current volatility is uncomfortable, but it is not unusual or unexpected. It is important to remain rational and disciplined. While we can’t control what happens in Washington, Wall Street, or Main Street, we can control how we prepare for and respond to the resulting gyrations. Thoughtful development of your goals, sound financial planning, disciplined investment management, and asking for professional help are

things you can control. The following are five steps to overcoming fear about the market: • Develop a clear goal about the money that you have invested. This should include what you will use the money for and when you will need it. If it is for retirement, look at how much income you may have coming from Social Security or other sources and solve for the difference. • Determine how much risk you are comfortable with. If you are unsure, Google “investment risk quiz” and see how you score. Most people think that they are fine with risk until the market declines and then suddenly they are not. • Establish an investment plan. Research at least 10 dif-

ferent investments. Evaluate their potential capital appreciation, dividends, and risk factors. Decide what investments you are going to buy. Make a decision about when and for what reasons you would both buy and sell this specific investment. • When the market gets rough, stay focused. Do not get emotional and change your plan midstream. If you decide to change your investments, ask yourself if your plan has changed or if you are just scared. • Ask for help from someone who knows what they are doing. It may be your best investment ever. For help riding the bucking bull, give us a call. We can help. For more information go to www.waterstonewealth.com or call 918-272-1120.

Myths & Facts about Dental X-Rays Dr. Steven White clears up some common misconceptions about dental x-rays. By Dr. Steven White Does the thought of developing cancer or other health problems from dental x-rays stop you from going to the dentist? The rationale many people have is that because dental x-rays involve passing electromagnetic radiation through the jaw, the exposure could lead to skin burns, cancer, brain tumors and even birth defects. I’m here to tell you, this is not the case. The truth is…the amount of radiation given off during a dental x-ray is too small to cause any damage. And the information your dentist gleams from x-rays is well worth the scant amounts of radiation. I will discuss a few myths and facts about dental x-rays. Myth #1) Dental x-rays are particularly harmful because they are using radiation extremely close to the head and the brain. Actually, no matter what part of the body it is, the amount of radiation emitted by a dental x-ray is too tiny to cause any damage. You may wonder, if there’s no harm, why does the dentist leave the room? The dentist leaves the room because they do this all day long – yes, sitting for one x-ray session isn’t bad. But the dentist might do 10 of these in a day. That’s ten times the exposure you get, and then they do it day after day after day. Myth #2) Dental x-rays will affect the breast milk of pregnant

women. In fact, nursing mothers often undergo numerous tests including mammograms and other x-rays to determine if they are in a proper state of health. Having a dental x-ray is absolutely no different than any of these other tests. Fact # 1) The amount of radiation you are exposed to during a dental x-ray is less than that encountered with other types of xrays, as well as many everyday activities. Unlike conventional xrays on other parts of the body, dental x-rays are targeted to a small part of the body. This ultra-precise targeting (plus your lead apron) ensures that just a small part of the body receives the small dose of radiation. Using a millisievert (mSv) scale to measure doses, you could expect 0.038 from Bitewing x-rays, and 0.150 from a full mouth x-ray. In comparison, a lower gastrointestinal tract x-ray measures 4.060, while a chest x-ray is .080. Radiation from space in Denver, Colorado is 0.510 per year, and the average national radiation in the United States per year is 3.00. So essentially, you get about three and a half times the radiation from space (if you live in Denver) than you do from a full mouth x-ray. Radiation is also present in just about everything from one degree or another; even a banana has radiation! For example, cooking with natural gas and flying cross-country expose you to more radioactive materials than a dental x-ray. Fact #2) Current dental x-rays require one-fourth of the radiation of traditional dental x-rays. With the introduction of faster speed x-ray film, the amount of radiation needed for dental x-rays has decreased considerably, as well as the amount of time you are exposed to radiation. Digital x-rays have been around for awhile now, and are quite popular, although I will say that not all dentists use them because the equipment is quite expensive. But the advantages are profound. Amongst the benefits are: immediate viewing of the digital image, easy storage for comparison, the ability to enhance the image, better communication between dental practitioners (i.e. emailing images), and (ready for it?) lower radiation. In some cases, radiation is up to 80 percent lower! Fact #3) The diagnostic and treatment benefits of dental x-rays far outweigh any potential consequences. Dental x-rays are a valuable tool in helping dentists detect and treat oral health problems at an early stage. Many oral diseases can’t be detected by visual and physical examination alone. Dental x-rays can help diagnose early-stage cavities, gum diseases,

infections, and some types of tumors. At White Smile, we use digital x-rays in our office, which use even less radiation than traditional x-rays. I can’t do my job of detecting disease without this diagnostic tool. You wouldn’t refuse a chest x-ray or CT scan (far more radiation) if your M.D. suggested you need one. We take the minimum amount of x-rays and follow ADA guidelines in their use. The State Department of Health regularly tests all radiation producing machines and certifies their safety.

According to the Institute for Health & Aging at the University of California, over 41 million Americans have a chronic health condition that limits their daily activities in some way, and 12 million are unable to live independently. For those who have attained age of 85, more than half are impaired and need longterm care – that is, the personal assistance that enables them to perform daily routines such as eating, bathing, and dressing. Most people want to continue to live in their own homes for as long as possible. For those who are elderly and have disabilities, that may be possible only with outside help. Choosing a caregiver for a senior loved one is one of the most important decisions you can make. 1. Make sure the person you choose has a reputable background and has the experience you need. When you use an agency such as My Choice, you can be assured that the caregiver who comes to your home has been background checked, fingerprinted, their driving record checked, and have a current clear TB test. Caregiving agencies in Oklahoma are licensed through the state and must carry insurance and an employee bond. 2. The caregiver should have qualified training. Caregiver agencies require ongoing training courses for their employees. It is important that the caregiver

understand your specific needs and has knowledge about your health issues. Some caregiver training indicates advanced levels of knowledge. Certified Nurse Assistant, Home Health Care Aide, Personal Care Assistant and Certified Companion Caregiver are programs that train caregivers. 3. Hiring an independent caregiver on your own can be overwhelming. You will need to do a background check and pay all payroll taxes for the wages a caregiver earns working for you. Also remember to call all their references! 4. If you decide you need some assistance, first, make a list of what you want done. Is it personal care, help with grooming or dressing? Do you want meals prepared and light housekeeping? Do you need transportation during the caregiving time to appointments or for errands? Is there a pet in your home? 5. After deciding how much help you want, take a moment to define what characteristics you would want in a caregiver. Should they be outgoing? Should they be religious? A great cook? Someone who could be your friend? 6. Are you choosing a caregiver for someone with dementia? The caregiver should have basic knowledge of techniques to help with the issues that can come with this disease. Caregivers can also help you

Myers Thinks Outside the Pizza Box Mazzio’s names industry veteran Stuart Myers as its new vice president of marketing.

By Kristy White Tulsa-based Mazzio’s LLC, the owner and operator of Mazzio’s Italian Eatery and Oliveto Italian Bistro, has named Stuart Myers, an experienced restaurant industry veteran, as its new vice president of marketing. Myers has more than 25 years of experience in national restaurant marketing, including field/local store marketing, promotions, brand and product development. As vice president he will oversee the company’s daily marketing, advertising and PR efforts in both the corporate and franchise-owned locations. “We are thrilled that Stuart is joining us to lead our marketing team,” said Sheri Miksa, president and CEO of Mazzio’s. “As a career marketing executive, he has led marketing teams for a number of franchised restaurant chains, including major pizza brands. He brings fresh perspective, extensive industry experience and best-inclass marketing skills to help us continue to build our sales and grow our brands into the future.”

For the past 10 years, Myers owned and operated United Marketing Communications, an award-winning marketing and media agency in the Dallas area specializing in the pizza industry. His company received numerous awards, including Pizza Hut Agency of the Year in 2008 as well as being named Papa Murphy’s agency for new store openings in 2013. But one of the greatest strengths Myers brings to the Tulsa company, according to Mazzio’s, is his ability to think “outside the pizza box.” His wealth of knowledge has led him to increase sales and profits not only for pizza franchises like Domino’s Pizza, Pizza Hut, Papa Murphy’s Take ‘N’ Bake Pizza but also for leading regional and national restaurant franchisors/ brands that include Church’s Chicken, Dairy Queen, KFC, Long John Silver’s and Freddy’s Frozen Custard. “I’m very excited to be a part of the Mazzio’s team,” said Myers. “I’m eager to get settled in, involved with the community and become more familiar with

everything the Tulsa area has to offer.” Myers knows how important it is to be active in the community, and he has also taken that belief to the next level with his leadership in national industry organizations. He served as vice president of marketing for the International Pizza Hut Franchise Holder’s Association, as well as working with franchisees representing more than 4,200 domestic Pizza Hut locations in the development of system marketing initiatives, regional and local media programs, and sales-building initiatives. Most importantly, Myers said he understands the importance of Mazzio’s amazing history and loyal following. The corporation was founded in Tulsa by the late Ken Selby in 1961 and ownership remains in his family today. With nearly 140 restaurants now in nine states, Tulsa-based Mazzio’s LLC is the parent company of the Mazzio’s Italian Eatery and Oliveto Italian Bistro brands. Mazzio’s Italian Eatery’s 134

The Function, Responsibility and Performance of the Tulsa County Assessor’s Office

Helpful information about our Tulsa County Assessor’s office. By Dora E. Finlayson

to the public? The Tulsa County Assessor’s Office of Ken Yazel clears up these common

questions. The Assessor values property for ad valorem tax purposes. Ad valorem means “according to value.” The Assessor’s Office does not set tax rates or collect taxes. Tax rates are set by the County Excise Board based on estimates of need presented to the board by the various school districts, cities, and other taxing jurisdictions. Property taxes are used, among other things, for schools, libraries, the health department, and to pay off bonds and legal judgments. Once the Assessor has valued the property and the Excise Board has set the tax rates, the County Treasurer is responsible for delivering tax invoices and collecting taxes. The Assessor’s Office also receives and processes applications for exemptions. These include the Homestead Exemption, Additional Homestead Exemption, Property Valuation Limitation (Senior Freeze), Veterans Tulsa County Assessor Ken Yazel was first elected by the Exemption, and Manufactured citizens of Tulsa County in 2002. He is a retired U.S. Marine Corps Major, having served as a radio operator, parachutist, Home Exemption. Mr. Yazel believes it is Vietnamese linguist, Nuclear Artillery Officer, Recruiting Officer, important that he and his staff and Financial Management Officer.

What exactly is a county assessor, and what are their responsibilities

be available in person to answer taxpayer questions, address concerns, and generally provide information about property valuation and ad valorem taxes. This is done through the Assessor’s Community Outreach Program, which is designed to give taxpayers an opportunity to learn about what the Assessor’s Office does and to provide a forum to answer questions and receive feedback. Mr. Yazel speaks to service clubs, professional organizations, homeowners associations, and various other groups throughout the year. His staff is available during the year to receive applications for exemptions at sub-offices located throughout Tulsa County and at various home shows and the state fair. Many people are unaware of the fact that county assessors in Oklahoma are regulated by the Oklahoma Tax Commission (OTC). Each assessor’s office is subject to an annual performance audit by the OTC, which scores that office on how accurate and how equalized their property valuations are, as well as how the office performs its statutory duties in general. Since the inception of the audit, the Tulsa County Assessor has scored at

or near the top of all counties in the state. And in 2015, the Tulsa County Assessor’s Office received a score of 100% (275 out of a possible 275 points). Mr. Yazel attributes much of this to his commitment to hiring competent and qualified people and providing the training necessary for them to perform their duties at a very high level. Citizens are invited to visit the Assessor’s website at assessor. tulsacounty.org and look up their property or the property of others for whom they have responsibility. There are tools available by which property owners can compare their property value to others in the same area. Plus there is information about exemptions and forms available online to make filing easier. If citizens have any questions about their property valuation, exemptions, appeals, or any other topic, they can call the Assessor’s Office at (918) 596-5100.

NNever Let Your Fear Decide Your Future Waterstone Private Wealth Management helps clients create confidence in their dreams for their future.

With the markets making a turn for the worst since January, the smell of fear is in the air. Not only is it in “the air,” you can sense it in the hearts of investors. F-EA-R has two meanings. Forget everything and run, or face everything and rise. The choice is yours. I hope you decide to face your fear and rise. So what does facing the fears of the market mean, exactly? A lot of folks have been rocking along over the last couple of years, maybe making little headway here or there but knowing deep down they don’t really have an investment or retirement “plan” in place. It’s something people find easy to put off. Some may have visited an investment person one time, who put them in some investments but have not received any further advice or service. Some may have left their 401(k)’s at old company plans or moved them to an online “do-it-yourself” outfit in an attempt to save money. At any rate, when triple digit losses start occurring, the fear sets in. However, then the excuse becomes that they “don’t want to move anything right now because the market is down.” Folks become literally paralyzed by their fear. So…the following is what I mean by facing your fears of the

market. 1) The “market” could care less what you paid when you purchased something. Therefore, if you really don’t have a sell-side strategy, meaning a pre-planned decision about when and why you or your advisor would sell a specific investment, then you really don’t have an investment plan. You should get one! Riding this market up and down and hoping for the best is not a plan. 2) If you do have an investment plan, stick with it! If you already have a well thought out plan about when you would sell or buy specific investments (or have someone who knows what they are doing, who does) then by all means don’t try to change things mid-stream, stick with the one who brought ya! 3) Be actively involved in your plan for your future. Too many times we develop an investment and retirement plan for someone and after a period of time they become apathetic or passive. By this I mean they stop coming to their portfolio review meetings, stop trying to reduce their debt, stop making their contributions to meet their goals. They stop working the plan that they committed themselves to. While we realize that the day-to-day tyranny of investing and plugging away at a future goal isn’t always

necessarily sexy, it is necessary to reach your destination. Don’t get distracted. Don’t let the day to day ups and downs sway you from

may be uncomfortable, it is not unexpected or unusual. Be opportunistic at times like this. As with most all circumstances in life, it is really not about what is going on in the market, it is about the decisions your make about what to do about it. Fear can be a catalyst for change. Embrace what it is telling you. You are in control of your choices. If you need help evaluating your investments or developing a plan, give us a call. We can help.

PPaying Too Much for Your Prescriptions? GenScripts Pharmacy is expanding its proven prescription cost reduction system from Tulsa and Broken Arrow to patients in Owasso.

By Duane Blankenship According to Mark Wright, owner of GenScripts Pharmacy, millions of consumers pay for their own prescriptions out of pocket, have high-deductible insurance, are affected by the Medicare Part D “donut hole,” or have expensive insurance co-pays for at least part of their prescriptions. If this is you, Mark invites you to contact

the new GenScripts Pharmacy in Owasso to see if they can provide you with an affordable solution to ease the financial pains of high prescription costs. After 47 years as a pharmacist, Mark felt changes could be made within his industry that would directly benefit the patient. He believed he could revolutionize

the pharmacy industry, and forged ahead to develop a simple plan. After much thought and deliberation, Wright came to the conclusion that patient care could be simplified if middlemen were eliminated and only the doctor, patient and pharmacist were included in the prescription process. His solution was to

GenScripts Pharmacy owner Mark Wright with Owasso Pharmacist/Store Manager Julie Heath and Lead Technician Beth Bozarth. GenScripts Owasso opened in early January, and Mark, Julie and Beth look forward to helping you save money with your prescription needs.

effectively eliminate all redtape generated by third-party involvement – the insurance companies. After three years of preparation, GenScripts opened its first store in midtown Tulsa in 2006. The unique business model empowered doctors and put their patients at the center of the plan. Prices are kept competitive and affordable and, best of all, patients get well. “Our mission,” said Wright, “is to relieve the pain of high prescription prices by providing patients with quality prescriptions at affordable prices. We give patients personal counsel on how to save money, assist them in executing their doctor’s care plan, and we participate actively in their treatment and recovery.” GenScripts now has three locations: Owasso, Broken Arrow and Tulsa. The focus remains on delivering great value and savings on prescriptions to patrons. “When you visit a GenScripts Pharmacy, you’ll receive free advice, the highest quality pharmaceuticals, and benefit from our low prices that compete successfully with big-box discount pharmacies and large chain drug stores.” The continuing focus of GenScripts is to unleash free market principles that allow them to offer customers honest and transparent prices that are based on actual product costs – not what the insurance market dictates

prices should be. Mark advises that prescription prices vary greatly among pharmacies, often varying by 50% or more between pharmacies in the same city. In the United States, prices are not fixed or regulated, and hundreds of customers pay less at GenScripts than their insurance co-pay. If you are uninsured or have a high deductible plan, you may save 50% or more on certain prescriptions at GenScripts. GenScripts is a fully licensed pharmacy providing highestquality medicines at low prices. Call or visit the new store in Owasso for prices and learn why thousands of area residents have made GenScripts their pharmacy of choice. “We do more than just dispense medications,” said Wright. “We are pro-active in helping find ways to save you money. At GenScripts, you are our customer, not the insurance company.”

LLearn the Essentials Kiyla Fenell offers certified pure essential oils. By Deanna Rebro Kiyla Fenell came to a crossroads in her life last January. Her young son was seriously ill and was hospitalized for nine days, prompting her to embark on a

search for natural health solutions. Among them? Essential oils. She knew how they had been used for centuries in different cultures, and how many of the plants were the basis of how our

modern medicines formed. There were plenty of essential oils in big box discount stores and at every corner drug store. But what she did not realize is that essential oils were not all the same. There was

Kiyla Fenell and her husband, Dr. Robert Fenell.

actually a huge difference in how the oils were made, the quality of the plants, how they were harvested and more. That led Kiyla to a company that has become the largest essential oil producer in the world. She learned how the purity of their oils set them apart. While others typically include synthetic substances, these oils are certified pure. Her husband, Bob, was skeptical about introducing these oils into their household. But Kiyla kept questioning the company’s top trainers, and she got answers that made sense. Most importantly, the oils made a positive difference when she tried them. Kiyla posted her experiences on social media. “I thought just a few people would see my posts,” she recalls. But suddenly she was bombarded with questions. People from all over the country wanted to know how she did this and that. What are the dilution rates? Almost overnight, the stay-athome mother of three, who until now had only home schooled her children, found herself teaching others the benefits of using essential oils. “All I intended to do was help my family. So many others needed help too,” she says. According to Kiyla, these essential oils are: Pure and natural, with aromatic compounds carefully extracted from plants; Free from fillers or artificial ingredients and in dilution of active qualities; Free of contaminants, pesticides or chemical residues; Rigorously tested for standards of chemical

composition; Cross tested using mass spectrometry and gas chromatography to ensure exact purity and composition potency; Sourced by a global network of leading essential oil chemists and growers to ensure correct species, growth in ideal environments and that raw plant materials were carefully harvested at the right time. Every batch of these essential oils is subjected to strict requirements to ensure potency, purity and consistency from batch to batch. The essential oils can be used in many different ways for many purposes. They can be used topically or aromatically. Some are FDA approved for ingestion. Kiyla offers them individually or in specialized kits that include natural cleaning without harmful chemicals. Kiyla’s new-found passion for teaching evolved into four classes a week at local health food stores. She holds a weekly evening session at her husband’s chiropractic clinic, as well as online classes. Recent topics for the online classes were “Bathroom Makeovers” and “Cooking with Essential Oils.”

Art in Transit Rolls Out Winners Doug Henderson’s Harley-Davidson motorcycle photography design will be applied to one bus as well as benches and shelters around Tulsa.

By Lale Samara

The artists have given their best, and now Tulsa Transit and Transit Advertising, Inc. will apply the winning art to one bus and several benches and shelters around Tulsa. Douglas Henderson is the grand prize winner of the Art in Transit contest with a stylized Harley-Davidson motorcycle photography design. Soon, motorists and riders will catch his mobile creation throughout the city. The winning bus design unveiling took place at the Myers-Duren Harley-Davidson dealership located at 4848 S. Peoria in Tulsa on Tuesday, February 16. Henderson has been an artist for as “long as he can remember.” His professional photography

career began in 1985, and he achieved international recognition for his photography of the Oklahoma City bombing which appeared in Newsweek, Newsweek Japan and other publications. He is a photography teacher and an author of Photoshop/digital photography textbooks. Henderson’s portfolio is available at: www.douglashenderson.com. Using one of his photographs, Henderson’s winning design transforms a standard bus into an eye-catching 1948 Panhead Harley-Davidson motorcycle. From front to back, riders and motorists will see a gorgeous American classic. “What could be more cool, more beautiful, more American, more funky, more eye-catching than an old Harley? How about

an old Harley blown up to 35 feet long and 8 feet high?” Henderson said. Local artist and previous winner, Randy Riggs, a 33-yearold Tulsa-area native, will have his art displayed on bus shelters and benches as well. While he didn’t win the grand prize, his JJ Cale tribute designs will also be featured on select shelters and benches in the Tulsa area. “We are thankful to everyone who participated in this year’s Art in Transit competition,” said Danny Sadler, AcrobatAnt co-owner and creative director. “Every year we are amazed by the quality of entries we receive for this contest. Tulsa is truly a hub for talented artists.” AcrobatAnt, LLC, Tulsa Transit, Transit Advertising, Inc. and all the sponsors of Art in Transit would like to thank everyone who entered this year’s contest.

assume the role of chairman. “I am thrilled to have my daughter succeed me as CEO to carry on the legacy my mother started decades ago,” said Chairman Claudia Hamilton. “Brooke has consistently proven she understands our mission, and cares about our employees and customers. I believe she will bring continual growth to NPI.” NPI is a third-generation, family-owned and womanled printing and product identification manufacturing company located in the Pearl District near downtown Tulsa. The company, which currently employs approximately 60, was founded by Marjorie Conley in 1973 and was then extended to her daughter Claudia and now her granddaughter, Brooke. “I am honored to be named president and CEO,” said Brooke Hamilton. “Being a part of this company has played a huge part in my success in the business world, as well as my personal development within the community. My grandmother and mother have impacted me with such great examples of how a business leader should conduct themselves. I am excited to follow in their footsteps and see forth the development and growth of our company.”

Page 23

Brooke Hamilton started working at NPI while attending high school. After graduating from The University of Tulsa, she transitioned to a full-time position at NPI, learning every aspect of the business, from operating a machine to running the company. In addition to her leadership at NPI, Hamilton is involved in the Tulsa community, serving as president of The Pearl District Business and Property Owners Association, and as a member of the Tulsa Regional Chamber’s Manufacturers’ Council. Since the beginning, NPI was founded on the principals of quality products at a competitive price, providing a familyoriented work environment, while striving to give real solutions to every customer. Now in its 43rd year of service, NPI has built customer relationships with various industry leaders such as American Airlines, Halliburton, GE Oil & Gas and Schlumberger.

The Route 66 Cruisers Car Club donated $4,000 to Akdar Shrine for the Sponsored Children of the Akdar Shrine in 2015. Half went to the Stocking Fund and the other half went to the Transportation Fund. In the past 9 years, the club has donated a total of $21,000 to Shriners. “We would like to thank everyone involved with the club, everyone who attended our Car Show, Swap Meet, & Toy Run, and the community for your continued support,” said Dwayne Caldwell, club president. “Together we made a significant difference in 2015

and put big smiles on the faces of kids being treated at Shriner’s Hospitals. “Our goal as a car club is to not only cruise and have fun, but to stop, help those in need, and make a difference in the lives of children along the way. Thank you for being a part of our journey as we move forward in 2016.” There are 22 Shriner’s Hospitals for Children – 18 orthopedic hospitals, three burn hospitals and one hospital that provides orthopedic, burn and spinal cord injury care. These hospitals have cured or substantially helped more

than 650,000 children, at no cost to parent or child, since the first Shriner Hospital opened in 1922. Akdar Shrine Center in Northeast Oklahoma currently has over 1,500 members and transports over 1,200 children to surrounding Shrine Hospitals. For more information, contact

Additionally, a technician will inspect the engine, transmission and cooling systems for leaks, check and adjust tire pressure, and check hood struts.

Don’t Be Alarmed, Be Aware continued from page 1 is no need for panic or alarm, but in concern for public health, we should be doing all we can to keep mosquito populations at a minimum. Warmer weather is just around the corner, and winning battles against insects is Mother Nature’s expertise. Treatments are administered in and around our homes, gardens, shrubs and lawns, therefore diminishing the inherent numbers of mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, bedbugs and termites. The range and abundance of the Lone Star Tick have increased over the past 20 to 30 years, and they now reside in Oklahoma and Texas. According to Justin, “All three life stages – larva, nymph and adult – will feed on humans and may be aggressive. They also feast on dogs and cats and are often brought into our homes.” With our mild winter, Mother Nature’s major focus is now on diseasecarrying insects. Shelia indicated that common pests are most active mid- to latesummer and mild winters generally indicate that we’ll see pests earlier, longer and in greater numbers. “This includes fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, bedbugs and termites,” she added. With spring break approaching and students on the move, Shelia reminds us of these tips to help reduce the risk of bedbugs in your home: Don’t put luggage on hotel or motel beds. Inspect rooms prior to moving in. The safest place for luggage is the bathtub; bedbugs hate porcelain and tile. When you return home, leave the luggage in the garage. Put clothes from luggage into the dryer and run a cycle on high setting. (Temperatures over 115 degrees will kill bedbugs.) After

the dry cycle, wash clothes and do another dry cycle. Bedbugs love clutter; remove it. Don’t open packages you receive inside your home. The number one carrier of bedbugs is secondhand furniture. Contact Mother Nature’s for a treatment of FROSTBITE before bringing furniture into home. “We predict a healthy swarm of termites this year,” said Shelia. “Colonies get overcrowded and send out swarms that include future queens and kings to ferret out places to form new colonies. Sentricon HD (High Density) Bait System is our best defense against termites.” Mother Nature’s also offers a fullservice mosquito elimination plan where technicians check potential mosquito habitats around your home – gutters, French drains, pools, toys, shrubs, trees and lawn. You will be advised of a recommended treatment plan and its cost. Don’t panic. Be calm. But do all you can to reduce threats to you and your family brought on by little crawly things that live around us. Call Mother Nature’s, the experts in pest control.

She’s Nailing It How experienced is the person doing your nails? Do you leave with pain under your nails, or cuts along your cuticles? Salons that don’t have high sanitary and cleaning standards can lead to infections and discomfort. Clients of Debbie Edmonds can rest assured this is not the case at Reveal Salon & Aesthetics. Debbie has 30+ years of experience as a nail technician, and many of her clients stayed with her since she began. She has been at Reveal for the past three years, and says her clients enjoy the pleasant, clean atmosphere of the salon. “Many of my new clients show surprise that their nails do not hurt after I give them a manicure or apply acrylic nails. It should not be a painful experience – it should be gentle and

relaxing,” says Debbie. Reveal Salon’s goal is to maintain the highest standards of service, cleanliness and client satisfaction. Debbie provides women and men of all ages services including manicures, pedicures, acrylic nails and Shellac. “Shellac is a popular option because it allows you to grow your natural nails, and it comes in a variety of colors. The polish stays on for two weeks without chipping.” Pedicures are always a big hit. Guys, don’t forget: pedicures are not just for the ladies! Pedicures are beneficial for everyone. They help improve your foot health by removing dirt and bacteria that can lead to foot problems, reduce stress, eliminate foot odor, prevent ingrown toenails, and make your feet look good. You shave, shower and cut

continued from page 1 your hair; why not take time for your feet as well? A few options Debbie offers with pedicures include top-quality Cuccio Naturalé scrubs, sugar scrubs, hot towels, and massage with lotion. If you want a truly relaxing experience, a pedicure is the way to go. In addition to Debbie’s practices of cleanliness and sanitation, her gentle hands, and the salon’s pleasant atmosphere, another benefit to becoming her client is that she truly takes the time to get to know you and develop a relationship. “I enjoy my work, and my clients become my friends. We talk about our lives, our work and our families,” she says. “I learn their preferences and what services they like. I also get to know my clients’ skin, and have even found skin

cancer spots before and recommended seeing a doctor.” Nail services are not simply about looking good – they are important for the health of your hands and feet as well. Debbie and her husband Troy, who is a stylist at Reveal, have been married for 43 years. The couple has two children and five grandchildren. Debbie says many of her clients will schedule appointments to have their nails done, followed up by a haircut from Troy. Nicole McGinnis, salon owner and licensed aesthetician, provides a variety of skin care services at Reveal, including solutions for anti-aging and adult acne, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, custom corrective facials, and OxyGeneo, a breakthrough anti-aging treatment that oxy-

genates skin from within while exfoliating and infusing it with potent regenerating nutrients. The Reveal team also includes four other stylists and a master barber. The salon was voted Best in the World by Tulsa World Weekend readers in 2014 and 2015.

RRun to the Well Kibo Group International will host the second annual 5K and Fun Run, dedicated to bringing clean water to Uganda, on April 9, 2016.

By Julie Alexander Most of us give little thought to where our water comes from when we turn on a faucet, but in countries like Uganda, potable water is at a premium. When a group of missionaries from Searcy, Arkansas visited the country in 1994, they quickly discovered how important water is to communities and to their own mission. Greg Taylor, a minister at The Journey Church in Tulsa, was a member of the mission group that went in 1994. He said their initial work was to spread their religious message to the residents they met.

But after several years, they realized how big of a problem unsanitary water was for the community and the message they brought. And the mission grew into something that saved lives in more ways than one. “Our mission immerses, so when we baptized some people in polluted water sources, it convicted us that we need to also address the physical needs of clean drinking water for people, as well as addressing spiritual needs.” That trip more than 20 years ago led to the creation of Kibo Group International, which is

(L to R): Greg Taylor, minister, The Journey Church; Teresa McIlroy, owner, VIM 360; Ben West, communication coordinator, Kibo Group International; and Mary-Margaret Watson, runner and Kibo supporter.

dedicated to bringing clean water to Uganda through the construction and maintenance of water wells. The Kibo Group’s mission goes well beyond just clean water. They see clean water as the key to creating flourishing, healthy communities. Kibo provides funding for well projects, and teaches the locals how to build and maintain the wells, giving residents independence, stability and better health. Ben West, Kibo Group’s communication coordinator, said they fund four to five new wells each year at a cost of ten to fifteen thousand dollars per well. Kibo also helps to repair 15 to 20 wells per year. Training local residents how to maintain the wells is also important. “Repairing a well is sometimes a couple of hundred dollars up to a few thousand,” he said, adding that not all the funding comes directly from Kibo. “The communities help pay for the repairs. They might raise a thousand dollars to help pay for the repair. “ Most of Kibo’s funding is from individual donors from across the United States. But the group is gearing up for their two biggest fundraisers on April 9: the Run to the Well, a 5K and Fun Run, and The Kibo Group Partnership Dinner. Run to the Well was the

brainchild of Mary-Margaret Watson, an avid runner and Kibo supporter. “Uganda is near and dear to my heart,” she said. “Even though our feet are planted in Tulsa, we can make a difference around the world.” Watson said she was told by other 5K organizers that they should be happy if they break even the first year, but Run to the Well raised approximately $14,000 in 2015, and Watson’s goal is to raise $25,000 this year. They are expecting 400 participants this year. Teresa McIlroy, owner of VIM 360, formerly Strength of Mind & Body, is a race sponsor for the second year and will be having training sessions leading up to the event. She learned about Kibo from Taylor. She and her husband, Jeff, have visited Uganda twice and witnessed first-hand the difference Kibo’s work has made. “We were impressed with the way Kibo hires and empowers Ugandans to do the mission work,” she said. “Who better to serve Ugandans than Ugandans who know first hand the culture and needs?” McIlroy is also forming a team to participate in the run and encourages people to join her team or form their own. Sponsorships are available and range in price from $500 to $2,500. The course is USATF certified and runners are chipped and timed. The 5K and the Fun Run are open to all ages and ability levels. Participants will also find an interactive Ugandan village with a working well at the finish line. The Fun Run starts at 8 a.m. and the 5K at 8:30 at the River Walk Crossing in Jenks. Online registra-

tion is available at www.eventbrite.com and ends April 7. For non-runners, Kibo is holding its third annual Kibo Group Partnership Dinner the same evening. Featured guests include Jim White, the winningest cross country coach in the country who was featured in the Disney movie “McFarland USA,” and Duncan Ojiambo and Lazarus Wogoli from Uganda will speak about the accomplishments of Kibo in their communities. The dinner is from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Renaissance Tulsa Hotel and Convention Center. Sponsorships are available.

Her husband, Dr. Jeff McIlroy, owns Strength of Mind Behavioral Clinic. When the fitness studio first opened, it was on campus with the clinic, so it made sense to share a namesake. As Teresa and her team moved locations and solidified their own business identity, the name got a little confusing. “We discussed a lot of name ideas, and the word ‘vim’ kept coming up. I didn’t feel confident about any of the names we thought of. I was anxious and worried, and I needed to find an answer, so I said a prayer. Soon after, I was looking in the dictionary for ideas and looked up the word ‘life’ – our studio emphasizes how true living involves the ability to move and function with ease. The entry showed the phrase ‘vim and vigor.’ I looked up the word ‘vim,’ which was defined as ‘strength of the body and/or mind,’ and I knew it was meant to be. We focus on wellness for the whole mind, body and spirit of a person – all 360 degrees – and VIM 360 was born.”

They Have the Dirt Soil Smart Partners provide quality soils for individuals and landscaping companies, as well as a drop-off location for leaf and grass disposal.

By Duane Blankenship

Many people know Don Hansen and his Thunderbird Berry Farm, located east of Broken Arrow on Hansen Road (321st East Avenue), just south of 71st Street (Kenosha). Don has recently announced the formation of a new business, Soil Smart Partners, for which Hansen will serve as mentor. Soil Smart Partners is a startup company designed to provide individuals and landscaping companies with a source of quality materials as well as a place to dispose of leaves and grass clippings. Hansen explained that there will be two divisions of Soil Smart: a materials division that will serve contractors with fill dirt and topsoil, and a compost division to serve landscape specialists and gardeners. “In short,” said Hansen, “we have the dirt.” Owners of Soil Smart Partners include Wes and Kristen Hedges, Michael Don Hansen serves as mentor for Soil Smart Partners, a startup Hansen, and Eric and company offering specialty soils for individuals and contractors. Kristin Hansen and are Don’s

grandchildren. The partners represent all the local schools (OSU, OU, TU and ORU) and have a wide spectrum of degrees from plant and soil sciences, engineering, microbiology and nursing, but they all want to minimize green landfill and make the world a little better than they found it. Soil Smart can customize each order to meet specific needs after NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) testing your soil to determine its content. According to Don, “You wouldn’t want to use the same compost on your azaleas as you do on your tomatoes.” In addition to their standard compost blends, Soil Smart is able to enrich your material with pine bark, cotton burrs, pecan shells, vegetable compost, cow manure, gypsum, limestone and sulfur. They can blend topsoil from the Verdigris River Valley with Arkansas River sand for the perfect sandy loam. “We need your leaves. We are set up to accept leaves and grass clippings free of charge,

and we can take limbs and branches in a separate area,” said Don. Drive to Soil Smart Partners in Broken Arrow by heading east of town on 71st Street (Kenosha) to 353rd E. Avenue (Lone Star Road). Turn north to the Soil Smart distribution area. Don invites you to put their quality product to the test by planting part of your garden with a customized product from Soil Smart and the balance without their custom formulated soil. “There’s going to be a marked difference between the plants grown in each area,” says Don, “because we have the dirt!”
