Earning Customer Trust Fowler Toyota of Tulsa Service Department is willing to listen. By Duane Blankenship

PRSRT-STD U.S. POSTAGE PAID PERMIT NO. 1000 TULSA, OK

Shane Wohl, Service Director for Fowler Toyota of Tulsa, has spent most of his 13 years in automotive service with a local Toyota dealership and with a dealership in Texas. “I’m really glad to be back in Tulsa with the Fowler Toyota of Tulsa operation,” he said. “This is a new group with lots of Toyota background and experience.” Shane got his start in the automobile business when a cousin was working in sales at a local dealership. Looking for a job, Shane asked if he thought

they might put him to work in their sales department. At the end of the year he was one of the store’s highest producers and won a nice vacation trip. One day he noticed a lady in tears coming from the service department. Asking if he could help, she said she had lost a hubcap after having her tires rotated by the dealership and she had just been told they would not replace it. Making a quick decision, Shane took her to the parts department and gave her a hubcap. The problem was

quickly and easily resolved. The next day, Shane was confronted by the service director who told him he had heard what had transpired. Instead of reprimanding him as expected, the service director asked Shane if he would come to work for him in the dealership’s service department. Shane knew he had solved a bad issue for the lady. He had earned her trust, made her happy, and retained her as a customer for the dealership. He enjoyed what he had done and (continued on page 24)

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

COMMON QUESTIONS FOR THE MONEY MAVEN BY MELANIE HASTY-GRANT

Nothing thrills me more than a new prospective client coming in to their first appointment with one of my Money Maven articles in hand and talking about how much I have helped them. Wow! What a huge compliment. It warms my heart because I am passionate about helping people with their money and I am committed to their success. I believe that this is one of the things I am called here on this earth to do. There are a couple of common themes of questions that folks usually have in that free initial appointment. I thought I would address them here for others who may be wondering the same thing. Question #1… Often folks want to know if “they are the type of client that we take on?” Just so you know, my clients are from varying walks of life. They are Mr. and Mrs. Smith that have worked hard for the last 37 years at XYZ Company that are nearing retirement and need to rollover their 401k’s and pensions. They are 40-60 year old business owners, doctors, engineers, secretaries, dental assistants, nurses who have been saving for 20 to 30 years and have their investments all over the place (from old 401k’s to investment accounts at other firms). They need help figuring out what to do, if they are saving enough, and what else they need to be doing, etc. They are referrals from CPA’s and

attorneys that are coming to me after a divorce or death of a loved one because they have no idea what they have and even less what to do with it. Occasionally, I get someone really new to the investment world who is in their 20’s and very motivated. That is amazing too! No, not all of my clients are not millionaires. Some are, but most are regular everyday folks who have between 100-250 thousand and have been saving through their 401k’s at work or have investment accounts at other places that they aren’t getting much help with. They are “millionaires in training” that understand it is about working for it and not wishing for it. They are not waiting for things to happen. They are going out and making them happen. And lastly, they value what we bring to the table. They understand that in order to

potentially grow their money they should consider investing in it. The other common question we often get relates to what services we provide? How does all this work? I would say 90% of the new folks who come to me want us to manage their investments. They want to bring over accounts or 401k’s from other places and have us manage and invest them. We do an initial financial plan at no charge for them because we have to develop a roadmap for where we are going and how we will get there in order to effectively manage their investments when they come over. The other 10% are looking for a fee for advice type of arrangement. They want to pay a set fee for our time and have us provide a financial plan or offer investment advice. We can do both but the latter is less utilized because with the volatile market environment, investment advice today is likely to change rapidly and also it involves out-of-pocket expense. Remember, you’ve got to take the bull by the horns! You’ve got to start. I promise you that you will be glad you did. For more information go to www.waterstonewealth.com.

BBuilding with Pride Inola Portable Buildings & Pole Barns offer variety and top grade work. By Carol Beck-Round Whether you need a storage building, a pole barn, loafing shed, a metal garage, a cabin or another portable building, Inola Portable Buildings & Pole Barns can meet your needs. In business since 1998, they have earned an A+ business rating from the Better Business Bureau, according to owner Carl Parson. “We only use the number one grade materials on everything

we build,” says Parson, who before starting this business had been in the construction and roofing business for 20 years. His experience in that field has carried over to the quality he delivers in every product his company makes, whether it is metal or wood. At the business, located off the north side of HWY 412 at 30355 South 4230 Road, you can

browse through more than 50 displays available. However, 90 percent of the businesses’ work is done on location. “We’ve also built carports and RV covers as well as metal garages,” he adds. “We stay busy and do some custom work. If you have an idea for a building that you would like, just ask.” In the 15-year history of Inola Portable Buildings, “we

have never had a complaint about our buildings,” says Parson. “Our business has grown through wordof-mouth. We started with two buildings when we opened and it just continues to grow each year.” While they do mainly residential work, the company has expanded—again by referrals—to include portable building projects at public schools in Claremore, Jay and Tulsa as well as businesses like Arby’s. “We have built storage buildings for Arby’s in Sperry and Grove,” he adds. “We have also constructed portable buildings for the City of Tulsa.” Because of their commitment to their craftsmanship and through word-of-mouth, the company has had calls from as far away as Texas and Arizona inquiring about their portable buildings. However, Parson declined the business because of the distance involved. “We will, however,” says Parson, “build anywhere in northeastern Oklahoma.” Conventional or Dutch Barn portable buildings include a 40-year treated skid warranty along with treated floor joists on 16 inch centers, ¾ inch tongue and groove flooring, #2 stud grade materials, a 25-year factory warranty on Smart trim, 25-year warranty on Smart panel siding, 30# felt paper and a 25-year warranty on Tamko shingles. Extras, like steel doors, windows, 4 foot loft, work bench and a 4 foot treated ramp, are available at an additional charge. Sizes begin at 8 x 8 up to a 16 x 24. Pole barns, which range in size from 24 x 24 to 40 x 60, include one walk-in door and one

9 x 8 overhead door. An additional door is available for an extra charge. The company offers a 40-year manufacturer’s warranty on the 29-gauge metal used in the pole barns and loafing sheds while the insulation comes with a manufacturer’s 10-year warranty. Also included in the base price is a 4-inch concrete slab with rebar and 10 foot sidewalls. Loafing sheds come in three sizes: 12 x 20, 12 x 30 and 12 x 40. “We can build a pole barn, concrete included, within a week,” says Parson. “We can complete a portable building— built on site—in one day.” Parson also says they will do a free on-site inspection before building a pole barn to determine how much of the field we need to level before we can begin construction. Although they are open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Saturday, Parson will meet with potential customers at a different time to accommodate their schedules. “They just need to give us a call and we can work it out.” The company also offers rent-to-own options. For more information and a price list, you can check out their website at www.inolaportablebuildings.com.

Canoe Brook: Charm, Culture, Traditions and a Sense of Family Tulsa’s newest Assisted Living and Alzheimers Community.

By Duane Blankenship Canoe Brook is Tulsa’s newest Assisted Living and Alzheimers Care Community. The center opened doors in December of 2009 where it today hosts two floors of memory care and two floors of assisted living to meet the needs of a growing population of senior adults who may require assistance, but do not need a skilled nursing facility. Canoe Brook is licensed by the State of Oklahoma. Mr. Jim Colbert is Canoe Brook’s Executive Director. He earned his Masters Certificate in Aging and reminds his qualified Staff, “Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care.” Jim was responsible for opening two senior care communities last year when he acquired the nickname, “Mr. Fix It.” He has an ability to pull staffs together recognizing the strengths of each individual. “A team working together equals success,” says Jim. “The entire Canoe Brook staff and I are all working together for our residents and their families.” Canoe Brook honors the contributions of their seniors by promoting independence and self reliance in a supportive and compassionate

environment. Jim says Canoe Brook is blessed with great department heads and staff members, each of

whom has a caring spirit. It’s obvious those working at Canoe Brook have a great compassion for what they do. “I’ve never

Canoe Brook Executive Director Jim Colbert says, “Residents don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.”

seen a place that covers their senior guests so totally with love,” Jim said. “We never try to replace home, but we want Canoe Brook to be as homelike as we can make it.” Jim and his staff like to take time to talk with and listen to Canoe Brook residents and their immediate family members. “After all,” says Jim, “we are all family.” The success in supporting the residents of Canoe Brook depends upon the valuable input received from family members and physicians. The staff continually evaluates each resident’s preferences as individual plans are developed. Canoe Brook cherishes and honors each resident and takes pride in providing personal care assistance as they support and encourage the independence of their residents. Safe living accommodations and access to the staff is provided 247 under the direction of a licensed nurse. Family members may be assured that their loved one is in good hands at Canoe Brook. It is truly a perfect alternative for seniors who can no longer live on their own at home, yet don’t need around the clock medical supervision.

Page 7

Assisted living services include customized levels of care, private suites with kitchenettes, and three glorious meals each day prepared by Chef Greg Blecha and served in the elegant dining room. Homemade desserts frequently prepared by Dietary Manager Glenda Aery are always an anticipated treat. Canoe Brook provides medication management, state-of-the-art emergency/internal response system, scheduled transportation, a full activity program with social and recreational activities, and weekly housekeeping and laundry services. Residents enjoy visiting the beauty and barber shop and just relaxing in the secure enclosed courtyard. Canoe Brook Assisted Living & Alzheimers Care Community is located on East Admiral Place, east of 293rd E Avenue (County Line) in Catoosa. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and the inside is clean and glamorously decorated. Give them a call today for a tour and complimentary lunch, or just drop in. You’ll be welcomed at the front door and will be impressed with Tulsa’s newest assisted living and Alzheimers community…Canoe Brook, offering a blend of charm, culture, traditions and a sense of family.

Rock Out with the Tulsa Rock & Mineral Society The Tulsa Rock and Mineral Society is hosting their largest showcase of the year at Expo Square Exchange Cetner on July 13 and 14.

By Christopher Davis The Tulsa Rock and Mineral Society have been in existence since 1958. The nonprofit organization’s mission is to promote interest in rocks, minerals, gem stones, fossils, artifacts, jewelry-making and earth science. These rock and mineral enthusiasts provide educational and participatory workshops, organize rock, gem stone and jewelry shows, and foster a helping and teaching environment to connect newcomers with longtime rock hounds. Members facilitate workshops for young and old, alike, and focus on ways to educate the public and spark interest in rocks and minerals. Lapidary workshops (“lapidary” refers to cutting, polishing or engraving precious stones) are held regularly at ORU facilities every week, and the TRMS put on demonstrations events year round. Some popular demonstrations include flint knapping (creating stone tools, such as arrowheads, by hand) and grinding and polishing marbles from quartz, ruby, etc.

Finis Riggs (longtime TRMS member) has built his own marble machine, and frequently displays them at shows. “It’s a fun hobby,” says Ben Thomas, who has been a member of the TRMS for about five years, “we try to focus on education and get the kids interested in fossils and geodes and jewelry, and also emphasize conservation of the environment.” Thomas points out the importance of getting young ones outside and encouraging them to appreciate nature’s beauty. By explaining the processes that form fossils, minerals, gem stones and geodes, and showcasing the beautiful works of art and jewelry created from these stones, children are inspired to unplug from TV and video

games a little more often and step outside and explore the world surrounding them. Some of the rock and mineral samples frequently on display include fossils. These ancient impressions, left behind by bones of animals or plants, provide an awe-inspiring window into the distant past. Petrified wood is a common find at these shows, and the variety of shapes, sizes and colors might cause one to second guess whether or not the material in front of them was, actually, wood. Another fun type of fossil to view, especially for children, is called coprolite. Essentially, coprolite is fossilized feces. Never fear, parents! These droppings, left behind by dinosaurs, mammals or birds were transformed to stone epochs ago, and are much more like petrified wood or geodes than anything you might avoid in the yard. On July 13th and 14th, the Tulsa Rock and Mineral Society will be hosting their largest educational event of the year. Located at Expo Square, the Rock, Mineral, Fossil and

Jewelry Show will feature some of the finest collections and plenty of workshops and displays. “This show is our premier showcase for the Rock and Mineral Society,” notes Finis Riggs, longtime member of the TRMS, “there will be a lot at the show that most people have never even seen before. We will have twenty-five of the top dealers in the nation showing their collections and selling artifacts, fossils, gem stones, geodes and quality hand-made jewelry.” This last item, fine jewelry, cannot be stressed enough. “Many folks don’t realize the gorgeous jewelry available at our shows,” Mr. Riggs says. Artists make jewelry by hand, and incorporate silver, turquoise, rubies, zircon, emeralds, crystals, agate and just about any other substance found in the earth.

Finis Riggs shows off his marble machine and invites everyone to explore rocks and minerals with the TRMS on July 13th and 14th at Expo Square Exchange Center.

Varicose Veins Hurt More Than Your Vanity Vascular & Vein Laser Center offers VenaCure for painful, unsightly varicose veins.

By Carol Beck-Round What causes varicose veins? According to Dr. Hrdlicka, there can be several contributing factors, including genetics and heredity. Others include pregnancy, obesity and standing for exceptionally long periods. Blood is allowed to pool in the leg veins, rather than being pumped back up into the body, which is the norm. Varicose veins can cause pain and

heaviness in the legs, swelling, burning and stinging, aching and throbbing. Summertime means shorts and swimwear. For some, however, summer means keeping their legs hidden because of unsightly varicose veins, which can also be painful. Old treatments for the problem often involved a procedure called vein stripping, which was the only way to get relief

from the pain. The procedure also involved a hospital stay. The Vascular & Vein Laser Center in Claremore has been offering state-of-the-art laser treatment to help patients become pain-free and glad to expose their legs again, all with very little down time. According to Dr. Kyle Hrdlicka, the treatment is one of many minimally-invasive procedures

Dr. Kyle Hrdlicka, a trained general vascular and endovascular surgeon, uses the VenaCureEVLT on a patient with varicose veins. Vascular & Vein Laser Center in Claremore offers state-of-the-art treatments that require minimal down time and excellent results.

available. Dr. Hrdlicka has been treating varicose veins for 15 years, but the VenaCure EVLT is the number-one physician choice for laser vein treatment. “With the VenaCure,” says Dr. Hrdlicka, “targeted laser energy is used to seal the vein shut and helps you look better and feel better fast because it uses different wavelengths of light to treat the varicose veins.” According to Dr. Hrdlicka, there is less bruising and pain involved with the use of the VenaCure, which also gives immediate relief and minimal to no scarring after the procedure. You don’t have to suffer from the pain or embarrassment any longer. Dr. Hrdlicka, a Board Certified general vascular and endovascular surgeon and his staff are dedicated to giving their patients the highest quality care in a comfortable, pleasant environment. A graduate of Claremore High School, Dr. Hrdlicka received his medical degree from the OSU College of Osteopathic Medicine in Tulsa before completing an internship, a residency in general surgery, and a fellowship in vascular surgery at Ohio University Doctors Hospital in Columbus. In addition, he completed a sub-fellowship in endovascular surgery at the Arizona Heart Institute in Phoenix. With the FDA approved VenaCure EVLT, Dr. Hrdlicka is committed to bringing his patients the results they desire with no general anesthesia and less than one hour in the office. “The procedure is easy to

Page 9

perform and gets patients back on their feet in approximately 45 minutes,” he adds. After the procedure, patients can walk out of the office without assistance. “It depends on the person as to how soon they can return to work,” he says. Insurance will pay for the laser treatment, which is performed in the office. Medicare will also pay for the treatment. Pre-authorization is usually required but there is usually not a problem getting patients approved. The initial consultation is free and no referral is needed unless required by the insurance company. “Anyone can come in for a free consultation to determine if he or she is a candidate for this procedure,” Dr. Hrdlicka says. “Many people think they have varicose veins but don’t. We can look at their leg and come up with a diagnosis at no charge.” To find out more about VenaCureEVLT and laser vein treatment or to schedule a free consultation, email claremoresurgeons@yahoo.com or call the Vascular & Vein Laser Center at (918) 341-5311.

SSummer Family Fun World Outreach Church presents a day full of family, friends, fun, and faith.

By Stephanie Reed From the Australian outback to the Venezuelan jungles, World Outreach Church is committed to sharing the powerful truths of faith and healing. It is in this spirit that the church presents Summer Family Fun on July 13, 2013 from 11:00-1:00 PM. Located at World Outreach Church just east of Memorial off of 91st street, the day is meant to celebrate and help Tulsans who might need a little help and a little love. With a fun-filled fair atmosphere, children are sure to enjoy the inflatables, games, face painting, and clowns, while mom and dad can take advantage of free clothing, free household items, free oil changes and free haircuts. “We see so many people come in tentatively, not sure what they are walking into, but they know they need help. By the time they leave, they are smiling, overjoyed, and loved. That is what our work is about,” Hayne Schurz remarks. “We want to encourage everyone to come out, enjoy lunch on us. It is a totally free day that Tulsans can enjoy and benefit from.” Though most wouldn’t recognize it now with the lofty, modern architecture and abundance of flags decorating the campus, World Outreach Church had its humble

beginnings in 1998 in the gym at East Central High School auditorium. Though the building has evolved and the congregation has grown, the church’s guiding principles have not changed at all: Word, Spirit,World. Missions Pastor, Hayne Schurz describes the unique atmosphere as “based on the Word, but driven by the Spirit. This gives our services a certain type of freedom in structure that other churches may not have. While Pastors Mark and Janet Brazee always have a plan for the service; if they feel led in a particular direction, they go where their hearts lead them.” In fact, World Outreach Church is itself a product of where the Pastors’ hearts have led. Starting in the late 70’s, the Brazee’s traveled widely teaching at churches around the United States and overseas, particularly in Europe, where they hosted theological conferences and seminars. The two were content to live out of suitcases and only admired the dedication and drive that they encountered from Pastors bound to a single church. In the 1990’s the Brazee’s found themselves moved in a direction that they never anticipated. It was time to put their suitcases away, and plant

firm roots. These roots have evolved into World Outreach Church. Like the founders, the church is mission based, and the congregation of 750-1000 finds themselves fulfilled in spreading of the Word. With over 30 years in mission related work, Hayne Schurz has been associated with the pastors for 15 years; the first four spent as a missionary in Bangkok, Thailand. “We really work on all levels of missionary work” explains Hayne. “We have prayer groups, short term missionary travelers, long term missionaries, community outreach groups, etc. Our goal is to involve the entire congregation in spreading the Word, educating, and helping those in need both at home and around the world.” For more information on attendance or donations please visit the church website at www.woctulsa.org or call the church at 918-461-9628.

RRegain Your Footing Dr. Ronald S. LaButti helps patient regain his quality of life. By Sara Dale The activity level of Toby Jenkins, Executive Director of Oklahomans for Equality, is leaps and bounds above what it once was. And, he happily attributes most of the credit to Tulsa orthopedic surgeon, Ron LaButti, D.O. Jenkins, 53, had always enjoyed an active and athletic lifestyle. Yet, this all took an unexpected turn (or downhill slide) five years ago. As Executive Director of Oklahomans for Equality (OkEq), Jenkins coordinates the organization’s large-scale annual events including the Tulsa Pride Festival. As in years past, the 2008 festival featured a multitude of attractions, including an obstacle course for the kids. “The obstacle course included a huge slide,” Jenkins says. “All was going well until one of the little girls had gone to the top of the slide, but refused to come down; so, I went up to retrieve her.” As Jenkins and the little girl descended down the 14-foot slide, she suddenly planted her foot in the middle of it, sending them both into a frightening

freefall. “My first reaction was to try to protect her from the fall by bundling her up like a ball,” Jenkins says. Fortunately, the little girl didn’t sustain any injuries. Yet, the same could not be said of Jenkins. The treacherous fall left him with torn ligaments in his left leg and knee -- and as would soon become evident -- a painful condition that continued to worsen and obliterate his immobility and active way of life. Prior to Jenkins’ accident, his routine had included daily five-mile runs along Riverside Drive. In addition, his position as OkEq’s Executive Director frequently entailed a demanding, active schedule, plus a fair share of travel. “As time went on, the pain became more excruciating. I also started gaining a lot of weight since exercising was out of the question,” Jenkins says. “I couldn’t walk very far, sleep very well, go up or down stairs or even kneel at church during communion. In addition to the constant pain, my entire left leg often became numb after sitting for any period of time.”

Happy Turn of Events Life is full of unexpected twists and turns, and one for which Toby Jenkins is most pleased is meeting orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Ron LaButti. “From the start, Dr. LaButti’s ‘no nonsense’ and upfront approach was very refreshing,” Jenkins says. “After running tests and thoroughly examining my left leg, he told me exactly what he thought and did his best to steer me away from the most severe and expensive treatments. Plus, throughout it all, his staff was incredibly nice and helpful in every way.” In January of this year, Dr. LaButti administered cortisone injections into Jenkins’ left knee, as well as prescribed ongoing physical therapy sessions. “Choosing the treatment that is right for each individual patient is a very important ecision,” Dr. LaButti says. “I felt Toby was too young to undergo surgery at this time and was an ideal candidate for a less invasive approach. It’s been so gratifying

Toby Jenkins enjoys an active lifestyle after being treated by Dr. LaButti. to see the ‘new and pain-free’ Toby jump back into his former active lifestyle with both feet!”

To put it into perspective, after one of our events a year ago last spring, I was in horrible pain and couldn’t move for three days. After this year’s gala event, I felt great. In fact, I felt so good I’m sure I could’ve danced all night!”

Footloose and Pain-Free Today, Toby Jenkins is 39 pounds lighter and continues to celebrate personal landmarks. “It’s made a tremendous difference in my life,” he says. “I’m walking five miles every morning, getting down on the ground to play with my grandchildren, and handling huge OkEq events with plenty of energy to spare.

revised to help them attain the next level of conditioning and improved health. Free advice is usually worth what you paid for it, but in this case it is definitely a value-added customer service package available only from Draper Family GNCs. “We are heavy in nutrition knowledge and that’s really important,” said Robb. “We know what’s available on the market and we share with our customers what we know works and what does not.” If you think you may be interested in visiting with a Draper Family GNC Certified Personal Trainer, drop by one of their conveniently located stores in the Tulsa area. When you’re there tell them you’re interested in receiving some free samples to try for a couple of days. Most patrons have been amazed at the measurable improvement and energy boost they have felt immediately. “It’s never too late to begin improving your health,” said Robb. Visit the GNC location nearest you this week and find out what they can do to help you map out your personal plan for success.

A Personal Plan For Health and Fitness Draper Family GNC’s help customers map out personal plans for success.

By Duane Blankenship There are four Draper Family GNC stores in the Metro-Tulsa area. The stores are: Tulsa Hills at Highway 75 & 71st Street; Woodland Corner at 71st & Memorial; The Shops at Broken Arrow at Highway 51 & Lynn Lane; and Smith Farm Shopping Center at Highway 169 & 96th Street in Owasso. The newest location is the Woodland Corner GNC which opened doors nearly two years ago. “The thing that really sets us apart from other supplement stores,” said Draper Family GNC Regional Sales Manager Robb Winn, “is our customer service and our exclusive offerings of NDS products.” “Our stores are definitely different,” says Robb. “In addition to selling supplements, every store has a Certified Personal Trainer on staff. They offer free advice to customers about our supplements, diet and custom exercise programs.” Customers are surveyed to identify their personal goals, what they are currently doing, where and how frequently they workout, and how willing they are to commit to a total program that will help them attain their goals. Again, the advice is free. The GNC staff wants to provide services to

customers in every way possible in helping them attain health and fitness goals. “Customers have discovered that there’s even a difference in our multi-vitamins,” says Robb. If you’re interested in weight loss, you’ll want to get information about GNC’s Embrace Kit. Robb says there are three elements to any successful plan…diet/nutrition, exercise, and supplements. Your GNC Sales Representative will formulate a plan suggesting how to exercise, how often you need to do it, a custom nutrition approach just for you, and when and how to take recommended supplements. The Embrace Kit and a customtailored program has appeal to both men and women, young and “old,” and Robb says he has customers who have lost over 100 lbs. on their plans. Many men coming in for the first time have complained that they are restless and don’t sleep well, they are tired, have a basic lack of energy, and are interested in boosting testosterone levels. “Men who feel that their energy levels are substandard have seen outstanding results from our NDS Flex Stack products. And again, both the Embrace Kit and

New Fireworks Featured SSpectalur at the Castle The Castle of Muskogee offers 37,000 square feet of high-quality fireworks. By Renee Profitt The Castle of Muskogee, Oklahoma’s 37,000-square-foot fireworks showroom keeps working to improve everyone’s enjoyment on the Fourth. Although the Castle of Muskogee has always guaranteed all fireworks to light, the new, higher quality means no disappointments on the Fourth. “A new ‘look’ in fireworks for 2013 is the Big Top, a six row show with alternating red, white and blue tails to red, white

and blue stars with finale of cracling stars in 42 shots! Pearly Gates with pink and green glitter, crackling tails and whistles in 29 shots. The American Chief with crackling and blue goes through 10 different displays before ending in stars and double spinners. Other items that have never been seen in Oklahoma include: Wicked Cool, Glory Honor Power, Booby Trap, Phat Fire, Pyrotechnics Princess, Jesters

Celebrate the Fourth of July with fireworks from The Castle of Muskogee.

Joke, Vampire’s Blood and 23 more! For better safety, the Castle joined the American Fireworks Standards Laboratory several years ago. AFSL is an independent testing organization that inspects fireworks before they leave China to assure safety. All fireworks, of course, must also pass inspection by the Consumer Product Safety Commission once they get to the United States. The new inspections procedures have resulted in a dramatic decrease in fireworks-related incidents in the U.S., even though fireworks imports have increased by many tons! The quantity and selection this year at the Castle must be seen to be believed: imagine a football field covered with fireworks as high as you can reach all under one roof, and you’ll get an idea of what awaits you in Muskogee. The Castle, of course, is air conditioned, with accessible restrooms and plenty of paved parking at the door. The annual fireworks sale lasts from June 15 through July 6. Hours are: June 15–30,

Guidelines for Fireworks Safety The Consumer Product Safety Commission and the National Council on Fireworks Safety offer the following safety checklist: • Always read and follow label directions. • Have an adult present. • Buy from reliable sellers. • Use outdoors only. • Always have water handy (a garden hose and a bucket). • Never experiment or make your own fireworks. • Light only one firework at a time. • Never re-light a “dud” firework (wait 15 minutes then soak it in water). • Never give fireworks to small children. • If necessary, store fireworks in a cool, dry place. • Dispose of fireworks by soaking them in water before putting in the trash. • Never throw or point fireworks at other people. • Never carry fireworks in your pocket. • Never shoot fireworks in metal or glass containers. • The shooter should always wear eye protection and never have any part of the body over the firework. • Stay away from illegal explosives.

RRCB Bank Car Giveaway CNG vehicles cost less at the pump, you could win one and save money. By Jocelyn Wood Want to save money at the gas pump? How about saving an estimated $2 per gallon? Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a fossil fuel alternative to petrol (gasoline) and costs pennies on the dollar at the pump compared to regular gas. Currently, area service stations

are charging around $1.00 per gal for CNG compared to $3.50 for gas. Summer Saving Tip: Enter RCB Bank’s Car Giveaway and you could win a new cost-saving CNG vehicle. RCB Bank is growing and to celebrate, we’re giving away a

car this summer! The prize is a 2012 CNG Honda Civic with navigation and Bluetooth. Running now through August 31, every time a customer swipes their RCB Bank debit card, they are automatically entered to win. Entry forms are also available at all of RCB

Mary and V. R. Campbell of Catoosa are entered to win the CNG Honda Civic to be given away by RCB Bank.

Bank’s 33 locations across Oklahoma and Kansas. In branch entries are limited to one per person, per branch, per day. “We know our customers have a choice when it comes to banking,” said Roger Mosier, RCB Bank President and CEO. “So we wanted to give something back and decided the car would be a great gift.” Throughout the summer, 10 finalists will be drawn from the entries and at a special event in September; those finalists will each get to try a key in the car. The finalist with the key that unlocks the door to the Honda Civic wins the car. RCB Bank is opening three new locations in Edmond this month. Additionally, construction is beginning on a brand new building in Arkansas City, Kansas. “We are very fortunate to be growing and adding more convenient locations for our customers,” said Mosier. “The growth in the central part of the state is something we’ve been focused on for a while. Edmond is a great town and the community is so welcoming. We’ve had one branch there for several

Page 19

years and we’re excited to see our footprint grow over there.” No purchase is necessary to win the Honda Civic. See official rules online at www.RCBbank.com under "Win a Car”. Other ways to save money at the gas pump is to start bargain hunting online. GasBuddy.com allows you to search for the lowest gas prices near you and offers useful fuel saving tips. It also has a Trip Cost Calculator that will give an estimation of gas costs based on your car model and distanced traveled. If you’re planning a road trip this summer or drive long distances to work, check out Mapquest Gas Prices which allows you to plan a trip and find where gas will be cheapest along the way. Both Gas Buddy and Mapquest offer free smartphone apps in addition to a number of other available apps that track gas prices to help you save.

Tulsa Herb Society, 25 Years and “Growing” An Evening with Patricia Lanza is planned for July 8th at the Tulsa Garden Center.

By Tina Lynn The Tulsa Herb Society is celebrating their 25th anniversary as a gardening society, therefore preparing for

another exciting, yet informative educational event. Preparations are well underway for An Evening with Patricia Lanza, July

Patricia Lanza, gardener and author.

8th from 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm at the TulsaGarden Center. Their free invitation to you includes an evening of garden exploration; where gardening enjoyment meets functionality. Originally from Crossville, Tennessee Patricia Lanza remembers what it was like to keep a garden by closely watching her grandparents’ garden in rocky, clay soil. She remembers how they rented a mule to plow in the spring then raked out the rows by hand. How they planted, watered and hoed weeds all summer. She also remembers the taste of fresh vegetables right from the garden: the flavor from red, juicy tomatoes, the taste of tender green beans and corn, indeed lots of corn picked by the apron full every day. Patricia Lanza began gardening just like her Tennessee grandparents, however by the time she was a grandmother she needed to garden a different way. She dealt with the same gardening conditions, rocky hardpan. It was there and then she discovered what she calls Lasagna Gardening; a method of

director of the Tulsa Garden Center, who encouraged them to, "Go for it." Which they did and the rest is herbal history. Throughout the years THS has hosted speaker after speaker who have international appeal as horticulturalists, herbalists, historians and dig in the dirt gardeners. Each has brought knowledge to share not only for the novice gardener who just wants to feel the earth and reap solace, but for the seasoned professional horticulturist who yearns to gain new gardening prospective. Join the Tulsa Herb Society as they welcome this kindred spirit and knowledgeable gardener to Tulsa. The event is open to the public and reservations aren’t required.

creating good soil without digging, tilling or weeding. It’s what keeps her in the garden today as she gardens near her original home where the soil is rock and clay. As a gardener and garden communicator, Patricia Lanza shares her knowledge as a writer, book author and public speaker with over twenty years’ experience.

EEarn, Save and Dazzle Aya Johnson introduces stylish Park Lane Jewelry. By Lorrie Ward When Aya Johnson went to a fundraising car wash while she was still living in California over a year ago, she never expected to find a new business direction. But as she approached a friend who was helping at the car wash, she saw her friend had a table set up with a display of lovely jewelry from Park Lane. “Since I like jewelry, I always see something I want,” Aya notes with a smile. “But I liked this so well that two weeks later, I hosted a show—and then another and another.” Aya’s own collection of Park Lane increased along the way, along with her confidence in the product. After her third show, she moved to Oklahoma, and soon she attended her first Park Lane convention in Chicago in July of 2012. “While I was there, I noticed Oklahoma was not mentioned when they called out state names during the conference,” Aya recalls. “I thought it would be beneficial to Oklahoma if I could establish this great product here.” Park Lane is a family owned and operated business which has proved its staying power from the time it was established in 1955 by Shirley and Arthur

Levin. Today, the Levin’s three sons, Scott, Mark, and Arthur III, still operate a company which they describe as being: “dedicated to providing exquisite jewelry and incomparable programs designed to reward our customers, our hostesses, and our representatives … Park Lane offers something special to everyone; we invite you to explore the possibilities!” For Aya, there are many reasons to share the good news about Park Lane jewelry. “This jewelry is of extremely good quality,” she says. “There is always something special, there is always something good—for both women and men,” she adds, pointing out that J.R. Martinez of Dancing with the Stars wore pieces of jewelry from Park Lane. Park Lane also collaborated with E Entertainment to create catalogue items that look as good as those worn on the red carpet—but are not as expensive. Aya also loves how Park Lane stands behind its products. “I love this because they have an unconditional guarantee,” says Aya. “You can send any part of the jewelry back and they will send you a new one, within 120

days. Then after 120 days, you can still get a replacement order for only $7.” Park Lane also offers a wide variety of looks to accompany differing styles and tastes. Whether you like the vintage look of pearls mother of pearl or your taste runs toward trendy beads and charms, Aya feels you are sure to find something to suit you from amongst Park Lane’s wide selection. She points out that Park Lane introduces a new piece of jewelry every month and it is easy to keep up with the latest introduction: “The easiest way to see everything is to go online.” But even with the ease of internet shopping, Aya encourages interested parties to become involved in the direct sales end of Park Lane, as it offers many great deals for a hostess or sales representative to increase their own collection. And she goes back to the beginning of her own experience to expound yet another thing that sets Park Lane apart: its percentage of return for non profits. “Any school or church group that sells Park Lane gets a fifty per cent return,” says Aya, who points out that this return is

Let’s have a Park Lane party!

Aya is happy to introduce Park Lane jewelry to her new Rogers County neighbors and would love to talk to anyone who is interested in learning more about the product or hosting a party or fundraiser.

Meet The Money Maven PowerLunch, Fox Business and Channel 8’s Good Day Tulsa. She works hard and plays hard. “Life is short, so get out there,” she says. “It’s not just about saving and working for retirement day. It’s also about finding what’s important to you and living it today.” Melanie grew up on a farm near Stuttgart, Arkansas, where her dad was a farmer and her mother a business owner. From her earliest days, she learned the value of hard work and perseverance, lessons that still serve her well. “I learned practical lessons about the cycle of life, planting seeds, nurturing growth, and harvesting,” says Melanie. “These are the lessons I still apply to my investment strategies.” As a child, Melanie spent

time with her grandparents who farmed during the Great Depression. “My grandmother taught me to be thrifty,” she said. Melanie studied psychology at SMU and met Ken, her husband, her man and her business partner at Waterstone. After graduating with a Masters Degree in Counseling from Oklahoma State University, Melanie practiced as a counselor and marriage and family therapist. Always loving helping others, she later focused on money and investing. “It was always one of the top issues about which therapy clients worried and struggled,” she added. Melanie re-trained and was licensed to trade securities and provide financial planning which she has done for 14 years. Eleven years of counseling and marital

continued from page 1 therapy experience gave her an undying compassion for people and a keen understanding of clients’ feelings and their needs involving money and its emotional and relational reach. Recently Melanie shared an idea with a friend. She bought 100,000 pennies…$1,000 worth. The pennies were laid in wallto-wall rows across Waterstone’s reception area and when sunlight hits them they glow brightly. Just for fun, Melanie cast a handful of coins across the front sidewalk and cemented them with epoxy. She smiled when asked if anyone ever attempts to pick them up. Each time Melanie sees her beautiful penny floor she is reminded of these time-tested sayings: Pinching pennies; a penny saved is a penny earned; pennies

from heaven; and “See a penny, pick it up and all day long you’ll have good luck.” Each of Melanie’s clients is given a “lucky penny” and told, “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” Waterstone serves clients who have worked hard, nourished 401k’s most of their lives and come to Melanie with significant wealth. She serves business owners, physicians, and engineers. But Melanie and Waterstone also serve folks from every walk of life. Most have significant wealth, but many are what Melanie calls “millionaires in training.” “I will teach you to be rich,” says Melanie. “It all begins with pinching pennies and getting out of debt. Then setting goals and working diligently to make it

Nutritional Supplements Can Give You an Edge undernourished, and lethargic citizens? Ask any true fitness expert and they will offer the same advice. Exercise more, get your nutrition in balance, feed your body with the proper nutrients, and prepare to be amazed at how great you look and feel. Owasso is home to one of the very best when it comes to educating clients on the proper way to incorporate nutritional products into a life style for maximum benefits, and the best part is the cost of their products are far less than most of the big chain, “discount” stores. Adana Gittelman, owner of Fit For Her, located at 9500 N. 129th E Ave, Suite 300, in Owasso, realized a year ago that many of her clients were turning to other sources when it came to weight loss products or nutritional supplements. “It was frustrating to my customers and frustrating to me because most of the advice they

received at these stores was coming from employees who were not educated in the products they carried and didn’t really understand how to utilize them in a proper combination in order to achieve amazing results.” Many would come to her facility and ask for advice but usually after they had already spent a large amount of money on products that just would not work. She and her husband Jason decided to utilize their background in the fitness world. They decided to open Owasso Nutrition Plus, selling the very best products out there at a significantly reduced cost. Since they began selling nutritionals, that side of their business has flourished. “Now, almost 25% of our daily revenue comes from our nutrition store,” explains Adana. “We always knew our clients were yearning for good products and for advice they could rely on. I mean, if we don’t guide them

towards results, we know it! We see our customers several times a week so they would have let us know if our nutrition plan was not working! The sales numbers just prove it!” Price is one metric that sets them apart from the other supplement stores, and they hears positive comments every day. “We hear from so many people that we are the lowest price on the products we sell and if someone finds a cheaper price, we will meet or beat it. We are committed to being the best source for the products everyone wants,” said Adana. But the biggest difference is still customer service. Owasso Nutrition Plus works hard each day educating clients and only recommending products that are necessary. They never try to over sell with extras that are not needed. It is this high level of integrity that makes customers trust them. “Integrity is

Earning Customer Trust continues to this day to exhibit that same good judgment with each customer opportunity he encounters. “I learned a long time ago that an upset customer is not really unhappy with me, but just with the situation. I am just the one currently available to listen to the customer’s concerns,” said Shane. “I sincerely believe a customer when they come to me with a problem. I don’t think they will go that far out of their way unless they are truly unhappy or believe there is an issue

that needs resolving.” Shane enjoys taking care of Fowler Toyota of Tulsa’s valuable customers and likes keeping them happy. Shane sees customer service as a give-and-take opportunity.

BBringing the Past Full Circle

Tulsa’s only nonprofit and art-house movie theatre celebrates 85 years in the Tulsa community. By Justin Johnson festivities through July 11-14. This event will be enjoyable for all ages. The festivities will include appearances of Oklahoma legends featured on the Circle Cinema Walk of Fame, live music, and select screenings. The celebration will feature the grand re-opening of the original cinema building. Instead of opting for a contemporary theater renovation, the Circle Cinema decided to combine the tradition of the past with today’s technology. In doing so, the Circle Cinema exterior will be an identical facade of the original 1952 design combined with the conveniences of modern technology. “When the renovation process began, the goal was to bring the Circle Cinema’s look and feel back to its peak in the 1950s. This latest project does just that,” said Wiens. “We have been eagerly anticipating the day we could let the public experience the Circle Cinema at its best.” The theater originally opened July 15, 1928 with a showing of “Across the Atlantic”

Mark your calendar to celebrate the Circle Cinema’s 85th birthday on July 15. The weekend of July 11-14 is packed with festivities and events fit for all ages to recognize the Circle Cinema’s birthday and to highlight the grand re-opening of the original cinema building at 10 S. Lewis Ave. The Circle Cinema has been a staple for the film industry in the Tulsa community, and is the city’s only nonprofit and independent movie theater. Throughout its 85 years in operation, the Circle Cinema is thankful to remain a relevant and appreciated foundation to the community it serves. “As we look back on our 85 years within the community, the Circle Cinema wants to tell the people of Tulsa, ‘Thank you,’” said Cofounder Clark Wiens. “We are planning to pull out all the stops to make this a memorable weekend for lovers of film in Tulsa.” If you are looking for a family-oriented, fun-packed event, don’t miss the Circle Cinema

starring Monte Blue. Cost of construction was $62,000 which would be around $800,000 with today’s money. The Circle Theater was popular with the pre-teen and young teenage crowd. The 10-cent price of a movie ticket included a feature film and serials. Popular film serials like “The Green Hornet” drew the neighborhood children to the movie theater as often as the feature films. The feature highlights many famous Oklahoman’s that have been influential in the film industry. The likes of Brad Pitt, Chuck Norris, Reba McEntire, Kristen Chenoweth, Joan Crawford and Will Rogers are just a handful of hall of famers who once called Oklahoma home. The Circle Cinema Foundation’s mission is to use film to foster understanding and appreciation of the diversity of the human experience, and create community among the viewers in the restored historic Circle Cinema. The Circle

and cream cheese. Add powdered sugar and fold in Cool Whip. After the cake is completely cooled, cut each through the middle so you end up with 4 layers(or you can just leave it at 2 layers, doesn't make any difference, really). If you decide to cut them, putting the cake in the freezer for 10-15 mins helps it stay firm and not so crumbly when you cut. Spread a good amount of the filling on top, staying about 1" from the edge. You will have plenty to put a good amount of filling on each layer. Once cake is layered and filling on, frost entire cake with the milk chocolate frosting. This cake is a great chocolate cake and the filling is wonderful, you have enough left over to do another lol. This is a quick new favorite. Enjoy! - Submitted by Amanda T.

HONEY LIME DRESSING Add all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside. Combine the sliced tomatoes, avocado, cilantro and grilled corn and honey lime dressing and mix gently so everything is evenly coated. Be careful not to mash the avocados. Let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes to let flavors mingle. Enjoy. - Submitted by Jessi.

Social Security Disability Law: “It’s All We Do.” Social Security Law Center believes local representation is the best representation.

By Duane Blankenship Social Security Law Center, LLC, has been in business since 1990 and is one of the largest firms providing Social Security

representation in the State of Oklahoma. They have successfully represented thousands of clients and their total focus is on

Teresa M. Grasso is the Managing Attorney in the Social Security Law Center in Tulsa.

Social Security Disability Law. “It’s all we do,” said Teresa Grasso, Managing Attorney for the Tulsa Office. “We help our clients get disability benefits.” According to Ms. Grasso, there are a lot of law firms requiring that the client has been denied disability before the firm will consider taking the case. Unlike other firms, Social Security Law Center prefers to be involved from the very beginning, before you’ve ever filed a claim. Social Security Law Center believes that local representation is the best representation and it should always be convenient for clients to visit with their attorney. That’s why the firm has offices in Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Bartlesville and Miami. The company’s attorneys have over 40 years of combined experience and choose to keep case loads small to ensure that each client gets the attention they deserve. The Tulsa office serves the Tulsa Metropolitan Area and surrounding areas. Ms. Grasso grew up in south Tulsa and graduated from Jenks High School. She attended the University of Oklahoma where she graduated with distinction in

2001 and was bestowed with the honor of receiving the Maehl Award. In 2004, Ms. Grasso graduated with distinction from the OU College of Law with two academic achievement awards. While in Law School, she served as the business manager of the Oklahoma Journal of Law and Technology and was a member of the American Indian Law Review. She is also a graduate of the Interdisciplinary Training Program through the University of Oklahoma Health and Science Center College of Medicine. She is admitted to practice in the Supreme Court of Oklahoma, Northern District of Oklahoma, Eastern District of Oklahoma, and the 10th Circuit US Court of Appeals. She is a member of the Tulsa Interagency Council (TIC) and the National Organization of Social Security Claimant’s Representatives (NOSSCR). A frequent featured speaker at seminars, support groups, and mental health facilities in the Tulsa Metro Area, Ms. Grasso explains and discusses matters relating to Social Security disability benefits. Through zealous representa-

tion of her clients, Ms. Grasso has won hundreds of cases. Her comprehensive knowledge of Social Security law coupled with diligent development of her cases has made her one of the top representatives in the Tulsa area. “I have a very enjoyable and rewarding job,” says Ms. Grasso. She has been at Social Security Law Center for eight years and loves making clients happy by helping keep them from losing their homes, keeping them out of foreclosure, helping the homeless get housing, and helping ensure that clients get the medical assistance they need. “We have a great support staff and when you call, a real person will answer the phone. And if a case necessitates, we’ll take it all the way to Federal Court,” she adds. Your case always stays inhouse with the Social Security Law Center. “You’re not just a number with us, but quite the opposite,” said Ms. Grasso. “If you have a need for Social Security Disability representation, please contact us.” Your initial visit is free and there are no obligations. “You pay a fee only if we win your case.” Call or visit the website for more information.

professionals and anyone who works with older adults. According to Eileen Neighbors, marketing director at Tulsa Promenade Mall, “The event is designed to help seniors and their families meet local experts and gather information that will help older adults lead more active, independent and healthier lives.

Celebrating its 40th anniversary this summer, LIFE offers a full array of programs for seniors and family caregivers, including Senior Centers, Adult Day Services, Case Management, Vintage Housing, Caregiver Support, and SeniorLine Information and Assistance.
