EDITOR ‌I’VE OFTEN SHARED MY LOVE OF HISTORIC HOMES WITH YOU, our readers, and the unique beauty they seem to offer around every corner. If you love learning about these homes and their intricate details just as much as I do, you’ll absolutely adore this week’s Abode feature by LN contributing writer Drew Gieseke.

Starting on p. 27, Gieseke will walk you through a stunning 1920s Spanish-style home that Period Restoration recently renovated. The company retained the architectural integrity of the exterior while completely transforming the interior to include rich color and extensive updates.

We hope you enjoy learning more about the history and transformation of this beautiful home!

Also, be sure to check out digital editor and staff writer Robyn Dexter’s story on Union Studio – a stately shop that showcases dozens of handcrafted goods, fine art and so much more, thanks to talented artisans in St. Louis. We hope you enjoy learning about all of the fantastic products in this studio, starting on p. 38.

All the best,

Alecia Humphreys

uch has changed d in th the world since 1993, when veteran an attorney a Susan Hais determined she would build a family law firm. In all those years though, one thing has remained consistent for Hais, Hais & Goldberger, P.C.: it’s aptitude for success.

“I [asked advice from] my father, who said to work hard and do the best that you can,” Susan Hais says. “Be as honest and open as you can and fight like heck. And the practice just grew.”

This dedication to her calling has proven well worth the effort. “A lot of clients have written me over the years,” Susan Hais recalls. “One sent his daughter’s school picture every year and wrote to thank me for the time that he is able to spend with her because I fought for him.”

Her husband, Sam, became the youngest judge in Missouri at the age of 28 and, after three decades, made the decision to go into practice, joining his wife at Hais, Hais & Goldberger, P.C. “We depend on each other [at work] the way that we depend on each other in every other aspect of married life,” Sam Hais confides. “I had no reason to believe that this would be anything other than a continuation of our relationship, and so it

has been. It gets better every day.”

Susan Hais agrees, finding that they each do things without having to ask the other. “It was an easy [transition] because we have an easy relationship,” she shares.

“Sam was busy from the onset. One of his first cases went to the Supreme Court. He’s always fair-minded and analyzes things from both sides.”

You can always find the pair together, even biking on the weekends or skiing and hiking when out of town. That effortless synergy flows into the law firm, where they often encounter clients going through some of the toughest times in their lives.

Susan Hais evokes a sincere sympathy to instill hope on the horizon for her clients.

“Kindness goes a long way toward giving people courage to do the right thing,” she states. “I don’t just do the legal work. I tell them it’s going to be okay. I’ve tried so many cases, been in front of so many judges, that I understand how exactly I would approach each case.”

“Susan gives them hope and a plan,” Sam Hais adds. “I’ve seen so many faces light up when she looks at clients and says: ‘here’s what we should do.’ It is a feeling of salvation for them. They’re coming here for exactly that.”

The gala featured cocktails, heavy hors d’oeuvres, desserts, and silent and live auctions, accompanied by live dueling pianos from Spanky Entertainment. The festivities extended deep into the night with music, dancing and singing. The association works to ensure that children with learning disabilities have the support and skills they need to achieve success both in and out of the classroom; it also variously provides support, guidance and education for kids, parents and educators through outreach programs, workshops and educational evaluations, among others.

The LDA makes a tremendous difference in the lives of children throughout our community, and it’s an opportunity to be a part of it. So if I think about the tutoring, the assessments, the work within schools that LDA supports, there’s just tremendous potential here, and the more that we can support LDA, the more they can make a difference – so that’s why we’re here.

he Orlando Family Foundation for Charities recently celebrated its 19th annual dinner at Orlando’s Event and Conference Center in south St. Louis County. In a ballroom decorated in “The Wonders of Winter” fashion, more than 450 quests from 30 different charitable organizations enjoyed hors d’oeuvres, followed by a five-course meal, as well as live and silent auctions. Jan and Sam Orlando hosted the gala, and Fletcher Lane again served as auctioneer. At the end of the evening, three lucky charities were chosen, through a drawing, to receive funds raised from the festivities.

The foundation has surpassed the $1 million mark in awards given to charity.

Functional FARMHOUSE

By Shannon Cross | Photos supplied by Mosby Building Arts

T

he farmhouse shown here, built in 1909, had been renovated a lot over the years.

When new owners purchased it, they planned a drastic remodel that would make the house their very own.

The new homeowners kept horses and wanted a property where they could both live and raise those horses. Luckily, this property was configured for equestrians, with a barn and equine fencing around the lot. Although the property made a great match for the new owners, the house needed work to accommodate the family.

As a result, the owners called industry professionals to coordinate and execute their remodeling plans in a cooperative, timely manner.

The residence’s transformation, in retrospect, exemplified how to adapt an otherwise-perfect location and property to the day-to-day needs and style of homeowners.

The owners in this case envisioned the style they wanted to execute, which included a combination of farmhouse, contemporary and industrial stylings.

The remodeling project included an update to every

24

MARCH 1, 2019 | LadueNews.com

room of the residence, as well as the conversion of the garage to a new master suite and a full remodel of the carriage house. The carriage house had been converted to living space at some point during the property’s long history but needed a refresh; the owners planned on using it as a space to accommodate guests.

Challenges almost necessarily occurred along the way. A structural vertical post in the kitchen caused an obstruction, so it needed to be removed and replaced with a new horizontal structural beam. Also, reclaimed wood beams from a farm in distant Ohio were brought to the property for placement on the dining room and living room ceilings; those beams were extremely heavy, requiring multiple workers to lift and install them. Reclaimed wood was also used for an accent wall in the newly white kitchen.

Little touches, like farm animal-shaped cabinet knobs and chicken-wire light covers, were installed as tie-ins to the property’s farmhouse history. All in all, the industry professionals involved delivered the functional and stylistic needs of the owners by creating a design that honored the history of the house while expanding the available living space.

The home was restored by Period Restoration, a local company that uses an authentic, handcrafted approach to repair, refurbish and renovate heirloom homes with modern technology, all with the goal of preservation in mind.

“We did the whole house; it was a pretty big challenge,” says Randy Renner Jr., who co-founded and co-owns the company with his father, Randy Renner sr. “We did a lot of structural fixing, including tearing a third of the whole house off the back and the west corner to do an addition.

For us, the biggest thing we care about is the original intent of the architect’s vision for the home, which is really preserving the outside architecture, where we make no compromises. – Randy RenneR JR.

The interior may have been totally gutted and renovated for modern living – Renner Jr. is quick to point out the obvious, that people’s lives are vastly different from what they were almost a century ago – but the exterior remains as authentic as ever.

“For us, the biggest thing we care about is the original intent of the architect’s vision for the home, which is really preserving the outside architecture, where we make no compromises,” Renner Jr. says. “It’s as seamless as it can possibly be.”

It shows. Four beautiful archways frame the front of the house, porch included. The crew even used real concrete stucco tiles to match the house’s original roof so that the home looks as if it were built yesterday.

Speaking of being “built yesterday,” the Westmoreland property features a totally new, three-car carriage house that stands separate from the home itself, and it never fails to impress.

It just so happens to be Renner Jr.’s favorite part of the property, as well.

“It’s quite remarkable,” he says. “Most people think it was always there, so that’s kind of the goal. I feel like it was done so well; if you didn’t know it was new, I don’t see how you could ever tell.”

Although they’re experts now, the team at Period Restoration understands just how rare this kind of work is.

“Finding people [who] (a) know how to do this stuff and (b) really care has been one of the biggest obstacles for us,” Renner Jr. says. “But we’re at a place where we’ve been doing this long enough that our core group of guys is pretty good at doing this.”

When the business first got up and running in 2009, Period Restoration operated as a single entity: The team would purchase empty homes, restore them and sell to buyers. This hands-on approach allowed them total control over the process, which meant projects could be restored using quality materials like slate roofing and copper guttering without completely destroying the home’s original look and feel. Eventually the business took off, making it difficult to focus on the many facets of the company, including actually selling the properties.

“As we grew, we didn’t have the time to do that – you’re wearing a lot of hats – so we started working with local real estate agents,” Renner Jr. says.

After 10 years in the business, the company now performs two types of projects: the first being where the team purchases a home without a client in mind and completes the restoration before selling it, and the second being where homeowners contract Period Restoration to refurbish their property, as in the Westmoreland project.

The home is just one of the eight to 10 projects per year that Period Restoration completes.

As one of the oldest cities west of the Mississippi, St. Louis is in the extraordinary position of boasting plenty of wonderful architecture, much of which Renner Jr. believes can go unnoticed.

“We have a lot of rich history,” he says. “There’s a lot of nice stuff we take for granted here.”

The best thing about working in a community with an abundance of historic properties?

There’s always something new, especially when it’s old.

ARCH APPAREL’S

New Digs!

PHOTOS COURTESY OF ARCH APPAREL

By Trey Ross

There’s no better way to show some St. Louis spirit than with Arch Apparel’s brand of stylish, comfortable and accessible streetwear. Arch Apparel has something for everyone – gear for die-hard Cardinals and Blues fans, cozy hoodies for winter, STL duds to deck out little ones or go-to gifts for friends and family. Ladue News caught up with owner Aaron Park to get all the details on Arch Apparel’s impending new address on Hanley Road.

What inspired you to open a Aaron physical shop?

Park Our brand has really grown this past year, and as a result, we have outgrown our old location in Crestwood. We have always been very heavily involved in the community and have wanted to lay roots physically in St. Louis, along with maintain our heavy online presence.

How long has this been in the works?

With the cancellation of LouFest last year, we hosted Arch Fest! Due to the success of that event, we have been able to speed up our timeline on a move. We have spent the last four months looking for locations, so to finally land on one we loved feels amazing!

When do you expect to open your doors?

We are shooting for mid-March, to coincide with the launch of our popular BIRDS Collection for the upcoming baseball season.

What made the 2335 S. Hanley Road location the perfect spot for Arch Apparel to call home?

The building itself is almost 5,000 square feet, which will allow our whole team to work under one roof – design, customer service, fulfillment and retail.

Additionally, it is a stand-alone building, which gives us a lot more flexibility for hosting events and how we want to design and style out space.

How do you think opening a physical location helps further achieve your mission to be St. Louis’ streetwear brand?

We have always wanted to bring more style to “St. Louis” T-shirts. We use high-quality blends in our apparel and always err on the side of quality.

We also do limited-edition items, which allows our customers to buy something that isn’t massproduced. A [given physical] location will provide a [product] location we want all of St. Louis to be proud of. We want to represent our community both

to locals and visitors with stylish streetwear.

With more physical space, will Arch Apparel be expanding its offerings?

Absolutely! We are hoping that our brand identity will grow from the new space and that will mean our creative freedoms will have to expand also. We are working on launching a St. Patrick’s Day collection in early March, then we have our BIRDS Collection slated for mid-March. Some things that will drop before then will be our “location collection” with some tees and hats inspired by some of our favorite

spots around St. Louis. We also have a couple more individual releases to come!

What has been your favorite Arch Apparel item to date?

Personally, I can never stop wearing my black City Circle T-shirt. That’s the original tee that I started with – it is always my go-to. As a brand, the Sherpa and High Neck tanks are very popular.

Anything new and exciting on the horizon?

Absolutely! We recently announced our exclusive partnership with 4 Hands Brewing Co. City Wide brand to launch on opening day! I have two things right now which I don’t want to jinx, but one involves a famous St. Louis restaurant and the other maybe the most famous Cardinal of all.

Arch Apparel is currently sold in many boutiques around town. Will that partnership continue, or will your products become exclusive to your shop?

We love all those partnerships and have no plans to stop that part of business. Those relationships are very important to us; those boutiques carried our brand when we were just babies.

FOR THE

of Art

Union Studio showcases dozens of handcrafted goods and fine art – all made by area residents.

Sarah Kelley, Katie Donovan and Mary Beth Bussen

S

arah Kelley and Mary Beth Bussen have known each other for more than 20 years, but they never dreamed they’d be running a shop together. But here, in 2019, the duo operates Union Studio in St. Louis’ Botanical Heights neighborhood, selling a wide variety of handcrafted goods and fine art. The best part?

Everything in the shop is made by area residents.

Years ago, Bussen had been using the space at 1605 Tower Grove Ave. for her own personal textile work, sharing the storefront with another artist and maintaining a small retail footprint. Within her first year in the space, though, Bussen knew that she needed to figure out the focus for the storefront and that she’d need additional help.

“Just as I was writing up a job description and making the decision to expand the retail, [Kelley] walked in and said she was looking for a job,” Bussen says. “I wanted to create ongoing access to the high-quality work of artists in the community, and once [Kelley] came aboard, we really expanded that.”

When they first started Union Studio in April 2014, the duo carried the work of eight artists in the corner shop. Today, they carry more than 80.

“We’ve grown the retail aspect of things substantially in the last four years,” Kelley says. “What’s been nice about this space is, everything’s always happened organically. The combination of the community’s

“ W h e t h e r t h e W o r k o c c u r s i n t h i s p h y s i c a l s p a c e o r b r o a d e r , i t h i n k o u r h o p e i s t h a t w e c a n s t a r t t o u n d e r s t a n d w h a t w e c a n d o w i t h a l l t h e s e i n c r e d i b l e p e o p l e . ” –sarah kelley

response and artist interest has led us to take on more and cultivate more relationships.”

Visitors to the shop will find a new selection of wares regularly, as the duo shifts out their supply to feature new pieces frequently. From local granola to pottery to handbags to skin care, Union Studio has a little something for everybody. Although the selection does change out regularly, there are a few things customers will always be able to find in-store, known as the Union Studio Collection. The set of items includes Al Westcott’s handleless mugs, Christiane Danna’s leaf earrings, Stone Leather Goods’ envelope purse and more.

“When people first walk in, we always ask if they’ve been in before,” Kelley says. “We tell them that everything is handmade and all artists are from St. Louis. [Bussen and I] personally know each and every person whose work is in here, and our customers have come to expect and cherish having that story to go with [their purchases]. I think that’s something really special.”

Oftentimes, customers use Union Studio as a gift shop and are drawn back repeatedly by the ever-changing selection, Kelley says. She notes the popularity of the shop’s “pantry” section, which features things like local honey, tea and granola.

“People like to give gifts that can be consumed and don’t have to have a place in somebody’s home,” she says of that popular exceptional section, which functions rather like an elevated impulse-buy area.

Customers are also drawn to the shop’s selection of clothing and accessories, including cozy pants from Annamaya Clothing by Alison Hyde, colorful pieces by Olivia Rae Designs and intricate jewelry from makers like Leia Zumbro and Jenny Walker.

The duo spends a lot of their time interacting with customers, taking the time to get to know them and find out what pieces they’re drawn to in the shop.

“There’s something special that happens in this space,” Bussen says. “People really are drawn to the work and the people that are doing it, whether it’s a cord wrap for your earbuds or a piece of large art for your home. I think people don’t always know what they’ll find, but they’re confident they’ll find something.”

As they celebrate their five-year anniversary this spring, the Union Studio ladies seek to open up the conversation even further.

“I think five years in, the shop is still ever-changing in its dynamic, but we want to have more sit-down conversations, whether it [be] with the artists or other business owners or members of the community in general,” Kelley says.

Bussen agrees, noting the reflective and loyal qualities in the shop’s customer base, along with the artists she and Kelley work with.

“We have a whole group of artists who are creative and generous to take a chance with us,” she says. “When you look at the people we have engaged in this space, it sure seems like there’s so much work to be done. Whether the work occurs in this physical space or broader, I think our hope is that we can start to understand what we can do with all these incredible people.”

1.

Craig Berube is the man. When he was hired, very few of us thought he was going to be anything but a quick stopgap until the Blues get Joel Quenneville.

I’m not saying the Blues won’t talk to Coach Q. I am saying they may have something special with Berube. He’s not Ken Hitchcock in a press conference; however, he is genuine, tough, and holds each and every player accountable. It reminds me of the Charlie Spoonhour press conference when he was introduced as the new head coach at the University of Nevada (UNLV). UNLV had tried to get Rick Pitino first. Charlie came to the podium and said, “I know I wasn’t their first choice, but I wasn’t my wife’s either.” Maybe Berube isn’t the first choice, but he may end up being the right choice.

2.

We’re a great golfing community. Nobody does a better job than the Metropolitan Golf Association at putting on big-time events, the junior programs are outstanding, and the teaching pros are some of the best in the country.

That’s why it’s absolutely amazing that when Adam Long won the Desert Classic in January, he was the first St. Louis kid, raised on this side of the river, to win a PGA Tour event. Think about the number of hockey, baseball, basketball and football players we churn out, and yet none until 2019 have ever won on tour. Maybe the trend is changing. We have some really good players on the way up, including Scott Langley, who played very well at Pebble Beach.

3.

I think the most intriguing Cardinals story of 2019 will be Alex Reyes. I believe that of all the people in the organization, the one with the most ability is Reyes.

He’s just been unlucky with injuries. We don’t really discuss him because he hasn’t pitched really in two years. However, his talent is breathtaking. If the Cardinals were to get 25 starts out of him, watch out. The entire staff has a chance to be really good – Reyes has a chance to be special.

4.

The NCAA coming down hard on Mizzou sends the wrong message. I do agree Mizzou is not without blame. Twelve athletes had a rogue tutor do academic work with them. However, Mizzou completely cooperated with the NCAA and still got nailed with scholarship reductions, recruiting restrictions and no postseason games. North Carolina got nothing, and its infraction lasted a lot longer and involved hundreds of athletes. Mizzou is right to fight this ruling, in my opinion.

5.

This has been a strange winter for me. It’s the first time in 21 years where I didn’t have a child playing basketball. We started with Alex at age 5, then Brooke and then Dom. I coached about 500 games of each of the three kids. Then, when they got to high school, I sometimes broke the speed limit so I wouldn’t miss a game. They gravitated toward other sports in college. But I contend there’s nothing like a high school game on a cold night with a packed house inside and a great rivalry on the floor. I go to games now for video for newscasts, but it’s not quite the same.

I wish I could do it all over again. Being a father and watching your kids play is just awesome. Moms and dads, don’t ever take it for granted!

Immunization Insight

‌I

was 5 years old when I had the measles. I remember how miserable I was with fever, kept in a dark room because of the eye inflammation and degree of contagion. Also, for the first few years of my practice, in the early 1980s, I cared for several children every year with meningitis and other lifethreatening infections caused by a bacterium called H. influenzae (not related to “the flu”) meningitis. And for many years, I hospitalized several patients with gastrointestinal illnesses caused by rotavirus.

Pediatricians today rarely see illnesses like measles, H. influenzae meningitis or rotavirus – because vaccines to prevent these threats to children have been developed and are readily available. So why, as I write this column, is there an epidemic outbreak of measles in the northwestern U.S.? The reason is vaccine refusal.

There are four categories of rationales as to why parents refuse to vaccinate: religious reasons, philosophical reasons, concern over vaccine safety and a desire for adequate education. I will not discuss religious exemptions, other than to note the states that allow these have a more than 50 percent higher rate of vaccine-preventable illnesses than those that do not allow such exemptions.

There are personal beliefs. For example, some

parents believe that allowing their children to contract a preventable illness is more desirable than vaccination.

Some parents assume that vaccine-preventable illnesses are rare (because vaccination is so successful) so their children are not likely to be exposed. Both beliefs seem indefensible, as avoiding an illness is better than contracting one, and it is critical to the health of the population that preventable illnesses be prevented – especially for children who cannot be vaccinated due to underlying illnesses or immune deficiencies.

Books have been written about vaccine safety, both pro and con. Reputable scientists, the American Academy of Pediatrics, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and countless studies have proven the safety of vaccines and disproven false claims, such as discredited former British doctor Andrew Wakefield’s 1998 study that falsely linked autism to the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) vaccine, more articles suggesting that thimerosal, (a preservative now removed from all vaccines) caused mercury poisoning – and on and on.

The desire for education about vaccines, their efficacy, their safety and their minimal risks is reasonable. All education should begin with your

Medical Masters

Ponce Health Sciences University opens a St. Louis campus to promote success for med school applicants and students.

M

ore than 50,000 hopeful students applied to U.S. medical schools last year. However, only slightly more than 20,000 were accepted, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. For the thousands who did not gain a spot in a first-year medical school class, the question is: What now?

Some of those disappointed applicants might find the answer at a new local higher-education institution that focuses on preparing students to succeed as medical school applicants and students. Ponce Health Sciences University-St. Louis offers a one-year master’s degree in medical sciences, a course designed to help students become successful doctors or find alternative careers in health care. And by working directly with representatives at nearby medical schools and programs, Ponce-St. Louis staff is aiming to give its qualified students a leg up in admissions.

“At Ponce-St. Louis, our aim through the Masters in Medical Sciences program

46

march 1, 2019 | LadueNews.com

is to shore up students’ academic credentials and MCAT [medical school entrance exam] scores through a first-year medical school curriculum in a dynamic classroom setting where they learn how to approach the material through case studies, discussion and technology,” says Ken Dobbins, Ponce-St. Louis chancellor.

Dobbins served as president of Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau for 16 years, retiring in 2015 and relocating to St. Louis. Shortly before his retirement, he worked with David Lenihan, president and CEO of Ponce Health Sciences University (PHSU), based in Puerto Rico, on seeking approvals and accreditation to establish an academic program in Missouri. Having worked with Dobbins previously, Lenihan established the downtown St. Louis facility as PHSU’s first mainland campus, which is headquartered in the Globe Building at 710 N. Tucker Blvd.

There are eight students currently enrolled in Ponce-St. Louis’ first master’s in medical sciences degree class. The students began their master’s program last semester, and Dobbins anticipates the program will expand to accommodate about 50 students per year. Applicants must have earned a bachelor’s degree in a science program and taken the MCAT. In addition, Ponce-St. Louis will begin offering a five-year program resulting in a doctorate in clinical psychology starting this fall. The Psy.D. degree differs from a Ph.D. in psychology in that it focuses on clinical experiences and does not require students to conduct research resulting in a dissertation. Graduates provide psychological services in a variety of care settings, and Dobbins is aiming for PonceSt. Louis to have classes of about 25 students per year in the program.

Students in the master’s degree program experience the same curriculum as first-year students in the PHSU doctorate in medicine program at the main campus in Puerto Rico. About half of the PHSU medical school graduates stay in Puerto Rico, while the other half complete U.S. internship and residency programs in medical specialties.

Rather than given live in-person, lectures are recorded by PHSU faculty, and Ponce-St. Louis students are issued iPads to listen to the lectures and read supplemental material before attending classes at the St. Louis campus, where they solve case studies using the lecture materials. Currently, Ponce-St. Louis has three full-time faculty members and two adjunct faculty, and Dobbins notes more faculty will be hired to accommodate increasing class sizes.

“This program really allows us to ensure the students understand the concepts,” Dobbins says. “For instance, I sat in on a recent neuroscience class. The students didn’t immediately understand a point, and our faculty member picked up on that

“We hope to help our students change their lives and their communities for the better.” and provided additional instruction. Before the end of the class, all the students could accurately assess the case study they were presented with.”

Dobbins refers to this approach as a “dynamic classroom” and notes that it is becoming more common in other universities, colleges and even high schools.

Students are provided with lectures and materials in advance and use class time to work through specific points that need additional explanation. Students at PonceSt. Louis also benefit from technology that allows them to view live PHSU lectures on occasion and practice anatomy with a virtual cadaver.

Ponce-St. Louis also serves a need in assisting underrepresented populations seeking to enter the health care field, adds Emil Ruiz, dean of enrollment management and student success. “We do have some bilingual students, but we are also interested in serving minorities other than the Hispanic population,” he says.

Reaching out to minority students who need the additional assistance to enter the medical profession helps fulfill the PHSU vision “to be recognized as a prestigious academic and research leader educating underrepresented diverse populations while focusing research efforts on solving health disparities.”

Dobbins is working with pre-med and psychology program advisors at more than 15 other higher-education institutions within 200 miles of St. Louis so Ponce-St. Louis staff can recruit students at those colleges and universities who may need to enhance their academic record in order to successfully enter medical school or seek admission to another type of health care professional program.

“We have an agreement with the St. Louis College of Pharmacy so that, assuming our students attain the qualifications set out for admission and choose to apply, there will be two spots available for them to enter the college,” Dobbins says.

Similarly, Compass Health Network, a behavioral health provider, will accept Ponce students for practicum as they complete their program.

Although Ponce-St. Louis doesn’t have student housing or athletic teams, students are quickly bonding as a cohort and planning a service project in the St. Louis community, Ruiz notes. Tuition and fees are competitive with those of other universities in the area, he adds, and Ponce-St. Louis financial aid officials assist students with obtaining federal student loans and other available financial aid.

“I’m a first-generation college student,” Dobbins says, “and I want the same opportunities in medical professions for others that I had. We hope to help our students change their lives and their communities for the better.”

TAKING CARE OF

t seems a common sentiment that, to be at the top of your game, you have to make sacrifices in your personal life. A concierge executive wellness program called myMetabolix is issuing a new challenge: Take back your health while still winning in business.

For many professionals, the belief is that time is too precious a commodity to spare on themselves, even if their health is failing. Founder Jen Porto and her husband of 20 years (as of this May), Greg Porto, operate a new, innovative health system that is designed to empower executives.

“We take a business framework to executive health,” Greg Porto describes. “Executives and entrepreneurs think about systems and results, taking resources and getting a return, and creating something sustainable. Our program, myMetabolix, has the same approach and same language, so it resonates with them. It is systematic, sustainable and has measurable results.”

The concierge wellness program promotes positive lifestyle changes through a highly customized plan that addresses four primary drivers of health: eating, drinking, moving and sleeping. Clients are assigned a dedicated wellness advisor, who provides support via a private mobile app and Zoom calls. Whether you find yourself away on a business trip or working long hours in the office, the difference, the Portos found, is in how executives need to approach self-care.

“Everyone needs accountability,” Jen Porto says.

“We serve up a report on [the client] in a way that

they are used to dealing with every day in business.

Now, they are applying it to themselves and they can have a partner to do that with. Executives value the fact that the partners they have, have walked in their shoes.”

As Jen Porto explains, the real issue is not time but energy. “Our personal experiences and those of our clients is that you free up more time because you have more energy, focus and clarity. Better productivity, better results.” By executing a plan that is focused on you, she explains, you gain time and greater health.

“Health is not related to age,” Jen Porto assures.

“It’s related to your daily choices. The great news is the daily choices that add up to better performance and longevity are simple.”

The Portos feel impassioned to change the status quo for many executives because they have seen myMetabolix’s need. “It makes sense for us to work together,” Greg Porto says. “We’re very open and we focus on the business, the clients and the solution.”

The key to success is in partnering with people who understand the challenges of an executive lifestyle, having lived it.

As Jen Porto explains: “We take our strengths and backgrounds to make myMetabolix as strong as it can possibly be.” Soon, you too will feel at your strongest in both business and in life. myMetabolix, St. Louis, 1-833-303-EXEC (3932), mymetabolix.com

Dinner ...

Mike’s Hotdogs Soups & Sandwiches

I

n University City, Mike’s Hotdogs Soups & Sandwiches offers a seasoned chef’s gourmet take on a classic hot dog stand with an array of casual options for lunch and dinner alike.

The eatery comes from Michael Eagan, whose culinary résumé includes previously serving as executive chef at Cardwell’s in Clayton, as well as owning St. Louis’ Park West Grille. Prior to his stint in fine dining, Eagan gained experience in the hot dog biz decades ago while working locally for CC’s Depot Dogs (of Home Depot fame) and even running a wiener stand inside a furniture store.

“I decided to open a business here because it’s just a great area,” Eagan says. “The neighborhood’s fantastic.

We have awesome neighbors in every direction and have had a really warm reception.”

MARCH 1, 2019 | LadueNews.com

The restaurant fills approximately 1,600 square feet, seating around 40 people inside and an additional 20 on a front patio. The building, which previously housed a hair salon, received a full renovation complete with a retro American-eatery theme highlighted by a red-andblack color scheme.

From the menu, guests can choose from a selection of burgers, other sandwiches, hot dogs and sausages, salads, soups, sides and drinks. Eagan uses local products from Ferguson’s El Rey Cooked Meats. The Volcano hot dog, for instance, features an El Rey St. Louis Red Hot with peppered bacon, hot sauce, jalapeño aioli, chopped onions, jalapeños, sports peppers, seared pineapple and celery salt.

As perhaps the most popular hot dog, Eagan’s take on the classic Chicago frank features mustard, relish,

chopped onion, tomato, pickles, sport peppers and celery salt. A St. Louis dog adds bacon and Provel. Also available is a vegan hot dog.

“My motto is, you’ve gotta have it fresh,” Eagan says.

“We make it simple, we make it fresh, and we make it delicious. I don’t overdo anything.”

The selection of sandwiches includes Angus burgers, seared on a flat top and topped with caramelized onions and pickles. Another highlight, the roast turkey sandwich, boasts house-roasted turkey with Monterey Jack on buttery, toasted sourdough, served with a side of sweet pepper marmalade.

Salads include a Buffalo chicken salad with crispy Buffalo chicken atop a romaine blend with Monterey Jack, tomatoes, bacon and ranch dressing. Soup offerings comprise hearty Texas-style chili and a

rotating soup of the day from Eagan’s arsenal of recipes amassed over the years – everything from tomato bisque to Creole gumbo.

Specials include chicken wing baskets, toasted ravioli and crabcakes. To drink, guests can choose from a selection of soft drinks, among them bottled options from local landmark Fitz’s Bottling Co. and Excel Bottling Co. in Breese, Illinois. Craft soda floats and milkshakes are also available.

Basically any offering from Mike’s Hotdogs Soups & Sandwiches, though, should make a fine reason to visit the eatery before catching The Black Rep’s production of Milk Like Sugar.

“It’s just good old-fashioned, quality food at a great price,” Eagan says. “I always like to say we have the best hot dogs, but we have the best everything else, too. There’s a lot of fun, interesting stuff you wouldn’t normally see at a hot dog stand – something for everyone.”

‌Story: For Annie’s 16th birthday, her friends Talisha and Margie have taken her to a tattoo parlor to get her inked. A young man named Antwoine, an aspiring artist, welcomes Annie. When Annie asks him what tattoo she should get, he replies he’ll draw what she wants, no matter what he or anyone else thinks.

That evening, the three girls also make a disturbing pact that will have long-term consequences for all of them. Talisha routinely pays other kids to take her tests, and Margie is more concerned with fashion than books, but Annie has common sense and yearns for more in life, especially seeing how her mother, Myrna, and father struggle to raise three children on meager incomes.

Myrna fancies herself a writer and is more interested in penning her thoughts when she gets home than cooking a meal for her cabdriver husband, Annie and Annie’s two older brothers, who are rarely around.

Annie longs for family nights, board games played at the kitchen table after supper or just good conversation.

Her desires are piqued further when she befriends Keera, a “nerdy” kid at school who always seems happy, chatting about her idyllic family life and the importance of religion to her stability. Annie also begins a friendship with Malik, a young man who takes care of his unstable mother as best he can while sharing with Annie his love of the stars, which he glimpses through his prized, if second-hand, telescope.

Annie’s torn between the pursuit of immediate gratification by Talisha and Margie on the one hand and the yearnings for a better life by Malik, Keera and Antwoine on the other. She knows that powdered milk, which tastes like sugar, isn’t very healthy, but it seems to be a staple in her neighborhood. Can she succeed in adopting a healthier lifestyle?

Highlights: Director Nicole Brewer and her youthful, talented cast capture the essence of this convincing and thoughtful drama by playwright Kirsten Greenidge in a smart, vivid production by The St. Louis Black Repertory.

Other Info: Greenidge’s one-act, 90-minute story won several awards when it debuted around 2011, including a 2012 Obie (Off-Broadway) Award for playwriting. The author has an ear for realistic dialogue spoken by her teen characters, as well as an astute eye for how the cycle of poverty and lack of education often tragically repeat themselves in the inner city.

The playwright’s fine writing doesn’t offer easy answers to longstanding problems. Rather, she focuses on well-etched character development, which makes each of the seven characters more than stereotypes, nearer to being rather realistically delineated.

The scenic design by Rama appears to be sterile or perhaps a blank canvas, with everything in white to offset Greenidge’s colorful characters, whose lives are in various stages of development. A couple of chairs

and a table at stage left represent Myrna’s kitchen, a chair in the center serves as the tattoo parlor, and a bilevel area at stage right houses Malik’s telescope.

Brewer coaxes fine performances out of her informed cast. Brandi Threatts shows several facets of Annie’s complex personality, revealing the potential in the young woman for a more fulfilling life, which she innately understands and believes can be realized through her interactions with Keera and Malik.

Dwayne McCowan and Brian McKinley etch sympathetic portrayals of the young men in the play, Malik and Antwoine, respectively, the former with focused determination on his future, the latter struggling to figure out how to make the most of his artistic talents.

Tyler White displays the braggadocio of Talisha, the leader of the girl group, who isn’t as certain of her decisions as she wants others to believe, and Camille Sharp does well as the well-meaning but rudderless Margie, who already is more interested in superficial appearances than substantive efforts.

Michelle Dillard nicely depicts the realities of the restrained life of Myrna, a woman frustrated that her creative abilities have been suffocated by raising a family in dire economic circumstances. Completing the cast, Jillian Franks portrays the upbeat Keera, whose optimism belies her own harsh background and provides another example of real potential longing to be expressed.

Milk Like Sugar tells it like it is in language teens might better appreciate than words that lecture more than teach. In that respect, Greenidge’s drama offers an important message well conveyed in The Black Rep’s studied presentation.

the maRmoReal past and the panoptic pResent collide in a high-tech exhibition now open at the saint louis aRt museum.

I

f one hypothesizes that art should electrify its audience in some fashion, then “Currents 116: Oliver Laric” bears an aptly galvanic title.

That free exhibition under the oversight of Hannah Klemm, assistant curator of modern and contemporary art, opened Feb. 22 in Galleries 249 and 250 of the Saint Louis Art Museum, where it will run until May 27.

The exhibition (part of an ongoing sequence) takes as its aesthetic springboard Reclining Pan, a splendid marble statue dating from roughly 1535 and occupying Gallery 236 of the museum. Nowadays attributed to the Italian Francesco da Sangallo – the attribution has involved

march 1, 2019 | LadueNews.com

scholarly arcana, Klemm relates after conferring with a colleague – it measures 25 by 52¾ by 23¼ inches.

Laric, who operates out of Berlin, has used 3D scanning technology to replicate the sculpture of the goatish Greek god of animal flocks, fields and other things. With that replica and similar replicas not in the exhibition, notes a release from the museum, the Berliner seeks to destabilize viewers’ “ideas of past and present, original and copy, and authentic and inauthentic. He makes these 3D scan files public and downloadable online, complicating the question of who owns an image and which version of an image is correct.”

On a 2016 visit here, Klemm relates, the artist “became interested in Pan because of its layered history as an object.

It was originally a sculpture of a civic or imperial subject in ancient Rome – we can see the robes on the back – but then the block of marble was reused. …

“He thought this idea of reusing materials was very interesting and then how it had gone through so many attributions and been in collections around the world before making its way to St. Louis. He thought that scanning and both making the scan available on threedscans.com [one of Laric’s websites] and making a new sculpture added in an interesting way to tell that story.”

The museum staff used a Go!SCAN 50 (a portable professional 3D scanner) to generate the 1½-gigabyte file transmitted to Laric.

“He got sections of the sculpture rendered and then printed as molds, which is how he makes the sculptures,” Klemm says. “He uses different materials like resins and plastics to make the final sculpture.”

She continues by reflecting on Laric’s aesthetic: “Oliver’s interested in various temporalities, seeing things online, how they live digitally versus in ‘real life’ – in a gallery or museum space – how they’re juxtaposed. …

“He’s interested in how images travel in these ways and how we see things differently.

The scans of the objects will live forever on threedscans.com, so people who have access to the technologies will be able to utilize the scans for a variety of purposes.”

Klemm also responds to the speculation that viewers might regard Laric’s work as a latter-day high-tech response to Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque’s revolutionary Cubism, which, of course, sought to render three dimensions in just two.

“I think Laric is dealing with different concerns, but it is part of a broader legacy of understanding art as part of a continuum that informs itself,” she says. “For artists like Picasso and Braque, the picture plane as a window was being questioned; for Oliver, how images live and move in a world of constantly evolving technology – how we see differently in a world of network systems and image overload.”

The museum release’s reference to “the question of who owns an image” prompts an intriguing explanation from Klemm. “Oliver’s interested in copyright, and that’s what

we’re referring to here,” she says. “Who actually owns the copyright to an image or object?

“In the case of Pan, it’s out of copyright because of how old the object is. But in Europe, Oliver has faced some museums not wanting their sculptures to be scanned or their collections to be turned into 3D downloadable images. He’s also interested in exploring ideas of authenticity and originality, which also play into image copyright and ownership.”

Mentioning various other work now at the museum, Klemm also positions Laric’s visual paean to Reclining Pan on an informal continuum. “It’s quite common for contemporary artists to respond to the collection in a variety of ways, from Matt Saunders thinking about

a work by Oliver Laric not included in “currents 116.”

Gerhard Richter’s Betty to Kehinde Wiley basing the poses in his paintings on objects from the collection,” she says.

“This is … very different in many ways. There’s a large video projection … in one gallery and the Pan sculpture in the other, but it’s very much in line with how ‘Currents’ showcases a wide range of media across contemporary art practice. …

“I’ve always been interested in how art and technology interact, and it seems like such a perfect moment to be thinking about some of these things, as we’re moving ever more into a digital world.”

In that light, regarding Laric’s exhibition, Klemm concludes: “I hope that people think about the different ways that they interact with technology and how that translates into how they perceive things and the material world.”
