standing as close to the edge of the silty track as I can get.

The sun is high in the sky, only just beginning its descent, and there is a persistent roar from the crowd that, despite its intensity, cannot quite diminish the dull, thunder-like sound of hooves pounding, racing toward a finish line and glory. I’m at Churchill Downs, at the Kentucky Derby, and even though I’ve been here for hours, the surreal nature of the day is only just now beginning to break as I see the horses and their jockeys round the corner.

FLASHBACK

to approximately eight hours previous, and I’m getting dressed for my first trip to the Derby as a spectator. Despite having lived in Kentucky since I was 10 years old, I have never attended, never dressed to the nines and placed a bet, never before sipped on a mint julep while traversing the infield. I’ve worked at Churchill Downs as a bartender and server in the past for different events, including Derby, but even that could not prepare me for the rite of passage I was about to experience.

Wagner’s is a local institution, operational for nearly a century and just around the corner from the Downs on the corner of Fourth and Central.

Treating myself to a cheeseburger, this seems like not only a tasty way to start my day but a necessary one. Fortunately for me, the team at Wagner’s has been around the block. They seem to know how to handle the crowd, and I’m impressed with just how quickly I get a table, eat my food and am sent on my way. If you’re looking for a good way to start your Derby Day festivities, I highly recommend dropping by there.

It’s certainly going to become a personal tradition.

Now, I’m fortunate enough to live off a street whose major bus line goes directly to the Downs, so I decided to utilize public transportation to get myself to and from the track in lieu of dealing with parking. Surprisingly, things go smoothly. My bus arrives on time, and I get to the corner of Central and Taylor without a hitch.

With food in my belly, I’m finally ready to step through the front gates, and once I do, I cannot help but feel transported. There’s not really a simple way to describe how the inside of Churchill Downs looks on Derby. It’s as though

latent tension I had been carrying from earlier in the week dissolves into the bourbon-permeated air. There are no worries at the track.

Not today. I realize that the average attendee most likely won’t have the privilege of access to a press pass, and I may never again. It seems like the responsible thing then is to make the most of it.

And so, I wander.

After grabbing myself a program, I visit Race 11 – the race before the Derby – is interrupted by a downpour. each and every corner of the Downs I can get myself to. No matter where I go, I’m simply taken by the amount of color on display. It’s as though Louisville had taken the time during the lead-up Derby Festival to collect all its resources and deliver a concentrated dose of spring. Men and women alike don vio-

comfortable, air-conditioned areas like Millionaires Row, Skye Lounge and the Turf Club, and I see mountains of buffet-style food. Near the front gates and in the infield, there is absolutely no shortage of concession stands serving pure Derby decadence. Once again, I’m reminded it’s a party.

My travels throughout the Downs take me to every corner. I run into some friends in the infield, I grab a celebratory mint julep – complete with a commemorative Derby glass to add to my collection at home – and I even place a bet or two.

I’m beginning to feel truly taken by the Derby spirit, and I am loving every minute of it.

At this point, I’ve literally been going down the list of areas that my press pass says I have access to, and it dawns on me that now is the time to visit one of few remaining ones: the barns. Commonly referred to as the backside, getting to the barns takes some doing as I’m sure it’s not a part of the Downs that officials want celebration-crazed Derby attendees having easy access to. I make it, however, without too much hassle.

The barns seem to be the Derby hangout for the various horsemen and their families, and they have I hear a nameless spectator mutter, their own traditions and festivwhile preparing the day’s “Someone’s dreams are about to come ities participating horses.

the storm, Mor Spirit looks at me with vague interest and munches on some hay. He even goes so far as to stick his head out of the stall at me. I know better than to touch him – this horse is probably worth more money than I will ever make – but I do talk to him for a bit. He seemed to appreciate a topic that wasn’t racing.

The rain clears up with a little over an hour to spare, and I make my way to the track, specifically the part by the Winner’s Circle.

It seems like the perfect place to watch the main event. I cut through the infield, and I once again marvel at the number of people here. Derby fever seems only to be intensifying with each passing minute.

When I arrive at my destination, I’m early enough to snag a spot directly behind the P H OTO B Y C L AY C O O K

team for Nyquist, which if you recall Derby 142’s winner, ended up being pretty providential. Before I know it, the participating horses are paraded by, and I feel the anticipation building in a way I never could from watching a TV at a Derby party. I hear a nameless spectator mutter, “Someone’s dreams are about to come true,” and I cannot help but agree.

“My Old Kentucky Home” plays, a song that my grandmother treats with as much sanctity and reverence as “The Star-Spangled Banner,” and the race begins. They call it the most exciting two minutes in sports, but like most sayings, it was a bon mot that held very little meaning to me. It wasn’t a feeling that I really understood because I had never experienced it. Until now.

It’s difficult to explain. The race begins, and it’s over. In that interval, however, there is a palpable sense of focus. You can almost feel each and every individual in the Downs intent on this one event, and it’s pretty inspiring. When I see Nyquist dash by, just before crossing the finish line and the borderline of Derby history, I look at a man who ended up being the winning horse’s trainer, Doug O’Neill. There’s a look of certainty on his face, of ineffable triumph. Since I’m so close, I manage to ask him how he feels. He eyes me up and down, probably glancing at my press pass and media There’s a look of certainty on pin, and says simply but his face, of ineffable triumph nonetheless profoundly, “It’s a good feeling. ... “It’s a good feeling. The The best feeling in the world.” And for one best feeling in the world.” brief moment, with the memory of the look on his face fresh in my mind, I completely understand. VT

Opened in 1999, A Therapeutic Touch was already successful when the previous owner sold it to the Blooms. Since Keelie Bloom began managing day-to-day operations, the business has seen a 20 percent increase in sales.

Staffed by 16 massage therapists and one esthetician, A Therapeutic Touch stays open seven days a week to accommodate its steady influx of clients.

“They know, whatever therapist they see, they’re going to get a really good massage,” Bloom says. “So people are never disappointed when they walk out the door.”

Clients come for their choice from a variety of massage styles or for aesthetic treatments like facials, eyebrow tinting, skin brightening or body waxing. In addition to the original Chenoweth Plaza spot, the business has a second location at 4141 Shelbyville Road.

When Bloom reflects on the years that carried her from aspiring teenager to successful businesswoman, she remembers that they were filled with hard work.

For example, when Bloom was eager for her first car, her dad took the opportunity to teach her the value of diligence.

“I actually had my own sledgehammer and worked with him all summer to earn my car,” she recalls. “So I knew what it was like to work hard and to earn the rewards for that.”

While earning a bachelor’s degree in business and marketing from UofL, Bloom worked fulltime. She started in p h a r m a c e u t i c a l s, where she built up enough experience to go into medical sales. From there, she began saving money until she’d built up the funds to start her own business. VT

Louisville Arts Organizations Kick Off City-wide Celebration of William Shakespeare Accompanied by representatives from Louisville’s arts and cultural institutions, Mayor Greg Fischer officially announced an eight-month-long city-wide celebration of William Shakespeare called Will in the Ville. This collaborative initiative – spearheaded by the Frazier History Museum, University of Louisville and the Louisville Free Public Library – involves more than 45 arts, cultural and educational organizations throughout Louisville and Southern Indiana. As part of the international commemoration of the 400th anniversary of William

Shakespeare’s death, it aims to make Louisville a “city of Shakespeare.” Shakespeare events began in April and continue throughout 2016. The celebration culminates with the arrival of a national-traveling exhibit, First Folio!

The Book that Gave Us Shakespeare, on display at the Frazier History Museum November 10–December 10, 2016.

The exhibit is made possible through a grant from the Folger Shakespeare Library, the Cincinnati Museum Center and the American Library Association and is traveling to all 50 states. Louisville was selected as the representative site for the state of Kentucky.

When the "First Folio" arrives in Louisville, its pages will be opened to the most quoted line from Shakespeare and one of the most quoted lines in the world, “to be, or not to be,” from "Hamlet." Accompanying the rare book will be a multi-panel exhibition exploring the significance of Shakespeare, then and now, with additional digital content and interactive activities. In the months leading up to and during the exhibition, community partners are planning an array of programs and performances for the public.

First Folio! The Book that Gave Us Shakespeare will be free and open to the public. A schedule of programs, activities, and performances is available online at LFPL. org/WillintheVille. And you can follow the conversation on Twitter and Instagram using #WillintheVille.

Sports Unbeaten Nyquist roared past the historic Twin Spires of Churchill Downs on his way to victory in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands.

ust one year after American Pharoah finally ended a drought of 37 years by winning the Kentucky Derby and going on to secure the elusive Triple Crown, there’s a strong feeling in the hearts of many in American racing that another sweep of the Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes could be imminent.

It was a beautiful performance by Nyquist, whose winning time of 2:01.31 fits easily among top 20 figures Horse Sense the in 142 runnings of the Derby.

JOHN The final time and his overall effort are ASHER more impressive when one considers that he chased rapid fractions of :45.72 for a half-mile and six furlongs in 1:10.40.

prompted many observers to look anxiously down the road when the Oaks winner and the unbeaten champ might meet head-to-head.

Business continued to be brisk beneath Churchill Downs’ Twin Spires on the first weekend in May as the Derby attracted 167,227 fans – second only to last year’s record 170,513 – and the Oaks set an attendance record for the second year in a row with a gathering of 124,583.

Now, some moments of note from Kentucky Derby and Oaks Days of 2016: A Perfect Team: Not only is Kentucky Derby winner Nyquist perfect in eight career races, his team of owner Paul Reddam, trainer Doug O’Neill and jockey Mario Gutierrez has a spotless record V O I C E -T R I B U N E .

in the Derby and Triple Crown. The trio won the 2012 Derby with I’ll Have Another and also took that year’s Preakness before injury knocked the colt out of the Triple Crown’s final jewel, the Belmont Stakes. Nyquist is the only other Derby starter for any and all of the three, and will be a strong favorite to extend that perfect run in the Preakness on May 21 at Baltimore’s Pimlico.

Perfect Servis: Trainer John Servis, who saddled Cathryn Sophia to win the Oaks, is now 2-for2 in the biggest races at Churchill Downs. Servis won the 2004 Kentucky Derby with unbeaten Smarty Jones.

Doubter No Mo: Count this writer among the many who wondered if a son of one-time 2-yearold champion Uncle Mo had the right stuff to win at the Derby’s demanding mile-and-a-quarter. You can also put him in the column of Uncle Mo believers. The young sire was knocked out of his bid for Derby glory by illness in 2011, but the effort by the star of his first crop of youngsters in the Derby provided strong evidence that Nyquist will be tough in the mile-and-a-half Belmont Stakes if he can get past the Preakness in just over a week. And, of course, interest in his sire’s talent M A Y 1 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

in the breeding shed will soar even higher now that Nyquist owns the Derby’s roses.

Not A Rivalry ‘Til You Beat Him: The Desormeaux brothers – jockey Kent and trainer Keith – were anxious for a rematch after a big late charge by Exaggerator fell just 1 1/14 lengths shy of catching Nyquist. But Exaggerator had things mostly his way in the Derby as he rallied from 15th behind a hot pace but still couldn’t catch the winner who had chased the pace throughout. Exaggerator is now 0-for-four in races against Nyquist. The rivalry between these Southern California-based rivals is, at this point, not exactly Affirmed vs. Alydar. Exaggerator must find a way to turn the tables in the Preakness, but the Triple Crown’s second jewel is a race that would seem to play toward the Derby winner’s talents and running style.

Biggest Runs (Non-Winners): Gun Runner (third) and Suddenbreakingnews (fifth, beaten a head and a nose for third) turned in runs that indicated each could be a Triple Crown factor as they move on in the Triple Crown series. The former had the lead turning for home but ran out of gas after prompting the hot pace. Suddenbreakingnews overcame

significant traffic woes to be flying at the finish. The guess here is both will win some big races not far down the road.

The Name Game: Those who are nervous about naming horses after human beings saw reason to re-think that strategy in both the Derby and Oaks.

Nyquist is named for National Hockey League star Gustav Nyquist of the Detroit Red Wings, while Oaks winner Cathryn Sophia was named in honor of the daughter of Cash Is King LLC’s managing partner Chuck Zacney.

Easy Game: After decades during which Kentucky Derby favorites rarely found their way into the winner’s circle, Nyquist was the fourth consecutive betting favorite to win the Kentucky Derby.

Who was the last non-favorite to win the Derby?

I’ll Have Another for Reddam, O’Neill and Gutierrez. And now Nyquist has the solid gold trophy that goes to the Kentucky Derby winner and his team is taking aim on Seattle Slew.

Slew, you’ll recall, was the only one of 12 Triple Crown winners to make it through that series with an unbeaten record. Nyquist is now just two wins away from joining him on that pedestal. VT

But here we are.

The story of Kyle Funkhouser’s peculiar final season of college baseball actually began just a little under a year ago, when he was still in the process of wrapping up his junior year. On June 9, 2015, the hard-throwing right-hander was selected by the Los Angeles Dodgers with the 35th overall pick in the Major League Baseball Draft, making him the highest draft pick in the history of UofL baseball.

While that seems like it would be cause for celebration, the late first-round selection actually came as a bit of a disappointment for Funkhouser, who, in the middle of the season, had been pegged as the potential No. 1 overall pick. When the Dodgers, who had already signed top-pick Walker Buehler from Vanderbilt, revealed that they were only willing to offer $1.7 million to their second selection, Funkhouser made the surprising and difficult decision to return to Louisville with the intention of making himself a higher selection 12 months later.

“It was another good outing,” McDonnell said about Funkhouser’s performance in Louisville’s 10-6 win at North Carolina last Sunday. “I think that’s about a month straight where Funk has looked good and is going in the right direction.”

The most accomplished pitcher in Louisville baseball history finally making the transition from “going in the right direction” to “being back to his old self ” could wind up being the final piece of a national championship puzzle for the Cardinals. VT

It was a shift that was not immediately met with great approval.

“Kyle is a competitor so we knew that he wasn’t going to be thrilled, and he wasn’t,” McDonnell said. “But we sat down with him, and we talked about all the different reasons why this was the best move for everyone involved. Funk’s a competitor, but he’s also a leader, and he’s a guy who’s always going to do something if he feels like it’s in the best interest of his team.”

“Kyle’s decision to return for his senior season was a personal one for him, but I do think it showed the belief he has in himself to improve as a player and a person, on and off the field,” Louisville coach Dan McDonnell said in February. “It showed a lot of belief in what he thinks this baseball team can accomplish in 2016.”

The statistics show that the move was indeed in the best interest of the team. Louisville has lost just five games since the move was made and enters this weekend’s huge series against No. 10 NC State as the No. 2 team in the country in the latest College Baseball RPI.

Instead of looking like a player driven to prove the teams who passed on him wrong, Funkhouser spent the first several weeks of his senior season looking like a pitcher Louisville fans had a difficult time recognizing.

While the three other full-time Cardinal starters flourished, Funkhouser lost three of his first five decisions and saw his ERA bal-

Funkhouser has also had a return to form in recent weeks. He’s been victorious in each of his last three starts and has seen his fastball get back to the 90-94 mph range that UofL fans have

But there are other aspects to this whole thing. And this year, it’s not Jamal Murray – yet another almost sure-fire lottery pick – but Marcus Lee, a one-time McDonald’s All-American who has declared that he’s testing the waters at the deep end of the pool.

Lee is in no way ready for the pros. He’s an athletic but one-dimensional basketball play-

jolting competition against the likes of Tim Duncan or LeBron James.

In another time, maybe on another campus, he’d have another year to progress, fill out his body and hone his skills. But this is Kentucky.

He had that chance this year, one in which the position he plays was suddenly vacant.

Towns, Trey Lyles, Dakari Johnson, Willie Cauley-Stein – and even Randle and Nerlens Noel, who would still have been around if this were the old NCAA – had all gone for the money. And Skal Labissiere, who was going to be the rightful heir to that noble heritage, was found lacking.

Lee had progressed from the raw freshman who stepped in for the injured Cauley-Stein in the NCAA tournament against Michigan to the promising sophomore who could hide his gaps on one of the greatest, deepest college basketball teams ever to the seasoned junior who had been attending Class Cal for three years.

Marcus Lee had a double double with 12 points and 10 boards vs. LSU in March.

It was his opportunity. And he largely failed it, a campaign of constant foul prob-

lems, missed shots, bad free throw shooting and too many times getting pushed aside for rebounds that should have been his.

True, he has another season available to him.

But next year’s freshman class includes a cast of bigs likely to rival the hype of the 2014 class.

Three tall, athletic and muscular frosh – one of them is even nicknamed “Bam” – will occupy the inside for Kentucky.

And that doesn’t include the possibility of two more 6-foot-10 Burger Boys – the dysfunctionally indecisive Marques Bolden and the lesstalked-about but equally promising Jarrett Allen – who could end up at Kentucky, pushing Lee even deeper onto the bench.

Of course, there is something to be said for experience. While Cal tends to disdain it, his best teams have profited from the steady, mature upperclassman hands of Patrick Patterson, Josh Harrellson, Darius Miller, Jarrod Polson, Cauley-Stein and Poythress. But Lee doesn’t have their pedigree. He’s not been a leader, just a one-dimensional role-player, even in the opportunity he was given this past season.

But what about what’s best for him? The NCAA rules have loosened up this year, allowing nearly every undergraduate who can palm a basketball to put his name in the draft without immediately losing his amateur standing. Does that mean a rush on sluice boxes and Levi’s as every kid goes prospecting for fool’s gold?

Or is it fool’s gold? The NBA may be the Holy Grail, but it’s not the only grail. The D (for “development”) League pays a minimal salary, but it’s a chance for a player to, uh, develop his game. The NBA rosters are full of players who paid their dues on the Delaware 87ers, Westchester Knicks, Fort Wayne Mad Ants, Rio Grande Valley Vipers and the rest.

It’s a long-shot, but it’s still a shot. And arguably a better shot than sitting on the college bench for a fourth season.

Yet a better option is international basketball. Overseas players are paid more than D-Leaguers, and it’s generally tax free. Plus, many teams pay their players’ taxes as well as living expenses and even provide a car. It probably offers a less-direct path back to the NBA than the D League does, but the kid is getting paid to play basketball, which is the basic ambition to begin with.

In either case, the player has to have a certain confidence in his game. But isn’t that what it’s all about, anyway? VT V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M • M A Y 1 2 , 2 0 1 6

Preakness is Ny On Saturday, at historic Churchill Downs, Nyquist became just the eighth horse to win the garland of roses at Churchill Downs and stay unbeaten in the process. He has won all eight of his career starts. The 2 3/4 length win over Exaggerator was the 13th fastest in the 142 Derby's. Up next is the Preakness Stakes on May 21, at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland. He shipped out of Churchill on Monday. Trainer Doug O'Neill, jockey Mario Gutierrez and owner Paul Reddam also won the Derby and the Preakness in 2012 with I'll Have Another. Nyquist joins Street Sense as the only horses to win the Breeders' Cup Juvenile and then the Kentucky Derby the next year. Only Seattle Slew in 1977, completed the Triple Crown without losing a race.

Following are the reactions from assistant trainer Jack Sisterson, Gutierrez and Reddam.

How did the horse look the day after running a mile and a quarter for the first time?

Were you surprised?

Gutierrez: We all believe he did it, but when your hopes and dreams translate into reality, it's a different thing.

Sisterson: That's him, he runs his race every time and comes out in great shape. Moving forward and on to the next one.

How crazy was it when he crossed the finish line?

Sisterson: Your heart starts racing and it just, everything is in slow motion. You see him at the top of the stretch, and he makes his move and the last eighth of a mile, it's just all slow motion. I can't explain the feeling really.

Did you see Exaggerator charging late?

Why go to Baltimore two days after the Derby?

Reddam: A lot of trainers would stay here and train for the next week or week and a half. In Doug's mind, he thinks, OK, this chapter is done. Let's move on to the next chapter. He doesn't believe that we have to get a work in over the racetrack. The view is they either like it or they don't. Seeing the surroundings a little bit is helpful. VT

What is the plan for now?

Sisterson: We'll spend the two weeks in Baltimore, and, fingers crossed, we'll move on to New York.

What did you learn about the Preakness the last time you went there with a Derby winner?

Sisterson: When you're working with good horses, they make our jobs much easier. Shipping in for the two weeks to get over the surface every day and things like that. Doug has done a fantastic job of keeping the horses happy and the staff as well.

What is the feeling like to do it again?

Gutierrez: It feels unreal, like a dream. You have all the nerves, all the adrenaline and all the excitement going into the race, and then you win it, and then it's like, did it really happen? Very, very blessed.

“It’s always exciting to come in with a new season. This year, we have had Coach Lisa Pinkston. an opportunity to have a lot of new players,” she said. “Coach Pinkston has done a great job in teaching our new system, and it is honestly how I want to be coached. She is intense yet understanding, which has been an honor for me to play for.”

RANDY WHETSTONE JR.

“Overall, I am pleased with our progress this season. I don’t judge this first season by wins and losses. I’m evaluating based on our progression and we are right there. We are losing games by one or two runs, but it’s hard to count moral victories. But at the end of the day, as long as this team is improving, our goal is to make a run at it at the end of the season for the regional.”

At Assumption, Pinkston, former University of Louisville softball player and director of softball operations at UofL, has been playing a hand dealt to her comprised of predominantly underclassmen: 12 freshman and sophomores and a few juniors and seniors. In her eyes, it was a plus.

“Being able to coach them with so many young players was really good for me. I was able to implement my system without having to change them too much.”

Players have responded well. Senior pitch-

An essential component to Coach Pinkston’s new system has been scheduling her young team against some of the top talent in softball, in efforts to build their confidence as they become upperclassmen.

“The first thing I have done is that I have scheduled the toughest schedule in the state,” Pinkston said, “with the goal of seeing in three years what that will do for us. When we talk about this team, what we do today affects us three days from now, three months and three years from now. And so everything we are implementing is based on the future. We are approaching this thing understanding that we are building for the future but not los-

ing the mindset that we are very much wanting to fight for a title.”

Growing pains have come along in the process. Pinkston says that not being afraid to fail has been the biggest struggle thus far for her team.

Younger players tend to judge their success by wins and losses she added, but her focus has been to get them to be “comfortable in the uncomfortable” and to learn at the end of this process that “you will come out stronger.”

So, an 11-13 record is not indicative of this team’s progress or the momentum they have heading into the playoffs. They’ve had close games against tough teams like Bullitt East and Butler, and in spite of their youth, they’ve been able to stand toe-to-toe with some of softball’s heavyweights.

“It is just a matter of getting this team to be confident at the right time,” Pinkston would add.

“Continuing to build and ramp that up so once district and regionals comes around; we hope that confidence can take us very far.”

Sophomore Jordan Ridge, whose confidence has grown, firmly believes the team has what it takes to reach their goals. To achieve them, they must “trust in Coach Pinkston’s plan and trust that we can really do it and take it. We have the skill to do it, but we just need to believe we can do it.”

There is, without question, a strong faith and belief that these Rockets can and will soar high, not just for this season, but also in years to come.

Next season, the program will be adding a freshman team – in addition to the junior varsity and varsity teams – with 15 freshman coming in. Pinkston says this will continue to draw more kids and “raise our level of play.”

The expectation is to rise to a level of play at which Assumption will remain a consistent state title contender and a powerhouse in the state of Kentucky.

“For the future, we are going to be competing for the regional championship and for the state championship,” she said. “We have all the pieces in place here to be successful. There is a focus on softball here, and it is nice. As these young kids gain more experience, the culture is going to be different. They’re going to hold each other accountable. The standard is going to be set higher, and the system is going to be set into place so that as each freshman comes in each year, my job is going to be easier because the system is going to already be set.” VT

DEAR ABBY: It has been more than 30 years since I knew the whereabouts of my brother, my only sibling. Over the years, I have searched for him off and on, especially when there were major life events.

Both of our parents have died, with my mother curs-

ing him at the end. My family believed he was probably dead since no one had heard from him, even to ask for money.

Yesterday, I Googled his name, and to my surprise, his mug shot popped up. It appears he has been incarcerated for most of the 30 years and has a rap sheet a mile long. Nothing violent, just stealing. I am saddened to have seen his photo this way and wonder why he never reached out to me. He has been alone, a criminal, for most of his life with no one to love or care about him.

My husband says don’t contact him, and I probably shouldn’t. I’d just like him to know that I have missed him and I am sad his life turned out this way.

Am I a fool to want to know this hardened criminal?

I am justifiably afraid that he could be big trouble.

Please advise. – SAD SISTER IN TEXAS DEAR SAD SISTER: Your brother may have refrained from contacting the family because he was ashamed of the mess he had made of his life. So let’s follow your question to its logical conclusion.

You contact your incarcerated, career-criminal brother and tell him how sad you are that his life turned out this way. Then what? What will you do if he wants to correspond with you? If he wants money? If he needs a place to stay if he’s ever released?

Unless you are prepared to assume responsibility for someone you have had no contact with in decades, listen to your husband. You already have the information you were searching for, so don’t go looking for trouble – because your brother IS trouble.

The Waggin’ Trail Walk & Festival for the Animals is one of the Kentucky Humane Society’s largest annual fundraisers, and we are celebrating its 22nd year. We will be waggin’ at the waterfront 10 a.m.-2 p.m. on Saturday, May 21. In addition to the walk, the festival features adoptable pets, vendor booths, food and drinks, contests and activities. We want this to be a great event for everyone in the family – two-legged and fourlegged – and we hope that you can be a part of it!

What can attendees expect at the event?

2650 Frankfort Avenue Open Mon-Fri 10:00-5:30 Sat 10:00-3:00

We start with the walk on the beautiful waterfront at 10 a.m., with the option of a one-mile fun walk or two-mile strut. After the walk, the party continues with fun activities for dogs and www.bdeemer.com their people, live music by Ghost Holler and Fun Size Band, food, beer by Apocalypse Brew Works, wine from Horseshoe Bend Winery, yoga and belly dancing demos, a special kid’s area, Fashion Forward Fashion Forward local vendors, exhibitors and so much more!

waterfront. We love its central location and that it is such a special place with so much history! The event has also become more of a festival, with live music, beer, wine and food.

How do you hope the event changes in years to come?

We hope to continue growing this event. The more money that participants raise, the more lives KHS can save. As the largest no-kill animal shelter in Kentucky, we would like to see a day when all pets have homes and get the care and love they deserve!

Is it too late to get signed up?

Registration is only $35 ($25 for children ages 12 and under). Your registration fee gets you a cool event t-shirt and entrance to the walk and festival. You can pre-register online and create your own fundraising page to save more lives at classy.org/wt2016. Or you can register the day of the event, starting at 9 a.m. VT

Why is the event important for the Kentucky Humane Society?

Without events like the Waggin’ Trail, KHS wouldn’t be able to serve the thousands of homeless pets they do each year. In 2015, KHS found homes for more than 6,300 pets and educated more than 5,000 children about responsible pet ownership. And since opening in 2007, our S.N.I.P. Clinic has provided almost 90,000 spay/neuter surgeries on owned pets, helping fix the pet overpopulation issue. Whether you come out for the walk, enjoy a beer by the Ohio River, listen to live music on the Big Four Lawn with the family or create a masterpiece of art with your pet’s paws, there is something for everyone at Waggin’ Trail – and each dollar raised truly makes a difference.

How has the event grown over the years?

Participation has grown significantly, and we have added lots of new vendors. Waggin’ Trail has been held at many beautiful places and parks in Louisville. This will be our second year at the M A Y 1 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

An inversion table ion between each of your back and neck bones.

People are always asking how long to stay on allows you to get the benefits of traction on your spine in the comfort and the inversion table. My personal opinion is that convenience of your own home. You three minutes is probably enough. Ten minutes seems like a really long time. If you stay will likely feel better, with less pain inverted long enough, your nose will stop up. and stiffness.

It will get uncomfortable. Ten minutes is not

An inversion table is easy to use. It’s a good idea to have someone with you the first time you try it. And of course, read the directions first. With an assistant, it’s easier to make adjustments to set the inversion table specifically for you. After the first use, when everything is adjusted, you can use the inversion table without an assistant.

First, you set the table for your height. Then you get on it and buckle your ankles. There are many different inversion tables out there to choose from. And when you get down to details, the only real difference between them is the mechanism for buckling your ankles. Some are easier to use than others.

Finally, you raise your arms up over your head. If the table is properly adjusted, the table will tilt back and return upright easily. Keep tilting until your head is lower than your feet.

You will begin to feel gravity stretching your body. If you want to limit the angle of tilt, set that limit, or have your assistant set it. Otherwise, you can keep tilting back until you are completely upside down.

So, what is happening to my body while I am in the inversion table? This is one of the few ways to pull on the ligaments and disks that hold your spine bones together. When you are sitting or standing, gravity is pulling your body down.

Your spine holds you up. Each of your spine bones stacks on the bones under it. The disks between get compressed.

twice as good as five minutes. You probably get more benefit from using the inversion table twice daily for five minutes than once daily for 10 minutes. Bottom line: use the inversion table for three to five minutes once or twice daily. Make it part of your daily routine, either morning or evening or both.

If you are having a flare-up of pain, you can use the inversion table as many times daily as you wish.

OK, so who should use an inversion table?

It is easier to list those who should not use an inversion table. It’s a short list. People who have glaucoma, people who have had spinal fusion surgery and people who have had knee or hip replacements should only use an inversion table at the direction of their doctor. People who have uncontrolled high blood pressure need to get it controlled before using an inversion table.

When it comes to other physical impairments, there is a general rule of thumb: If your physical impairment prevents you from getting onto the inversion table and securing your ankles without assistance, it’s probably not for you. Check with your doctor.

Do you have back or neck pain? What about bulging disks? Have you had an old whiplash injury? Or sports injury? Then you can probably benefit from regular use of an inversion table. Why wait? Shop around town. There are floor models at retail stores. Try out the different methods for securing your ankles. Get started with your inversion table and lead a painfree life.

Married couple Laura and Nash Neely are the proud owners of The Post, but owning one of the most booming eateries in town wasn’t exactly on their bucket list. As Laura recounts, “We both had very different grown-up jobs after we fin-

There are several found artifacts on the walls of The Post – such as an American flag with 48 stars – that speak to the building’s history. And for the Neelys, that history is one of their favorite aspects of their business: “We have people who come in all the time and say, ‘Oh, I used to come in here for the chicken dinner at the VFW’ or ‘We had a family reunion up here back when it was the VFW’ or ‘My great aunt is one of the ladies on the wall in those pictures,’” Laura relates. “You can just tell they’re coming in because they want to see what it looks like now.”

Nash knew just who to call. “I knew I had the resources, I had the experience and I could build a good crew,” he remembers. “I knew that if this was the plan, it was now or never.”

Though they were determined to maintain the building’s history, Laura and Nash also wanted to update and open up the formerly very closed-in space. They knew what they wanted it to be and brought on Pickett + Passafiume Architects and Shine Contracting to help realize their vision.

The collaboration couldn’t have worked out better as the space is gorgeous, rife with nuances of history and flourishes of modernity. The bold lines present in The Post’s architecture are elsewhere echoed in their stunning graphic design by Gemini Cricket.

And so the concept of The Post began to take shape. The name itself came from the fact that the building was a VFW post for several decades.

With such an open concept, it was always paramount to the Neelys to create a true sense of community at The Post. They have been resi-

dents of the neighborhood since 2009 and look to the longstanding Nachbar and Eiderdown as examples of how to do it right in Germantown.

And by creating their restaurant with that earnest spirit, Laura and Nash proudly assert that The Post has indeed become what they always wanted it to be. “We’re not trying to gouge the neighborhood or provide a place where only the young cool kids want to come,” Laura maintains. “It’s a place where hopefully everybody wants to come, and that’s something we really set out to do. We didn’t want to alienate anybody, and for the most part, I think it’s been received that way.”

As far as the pizza goes, it was always intended to be New York style, and while Nash contends all The Post offers pretty much fits that bill, there’s one thing on the menu that is absolutely quintessential New York pizza: the slices. The Post regularly offers a cheese ($3) and pepperoni slice ($3.50) as well as a slice of the day ($4.50) on the menu, and the couple agrees that because the pizzas the slices come from are stretched out very large and thin and just one slice can fill you up, they’re what they always recommend to first-timers.

But regardless of what you order, you can be sure it will be absolutely delicious. The menu is

M A Y 1 2 , 2 0 1 6 • V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

simple: signature pizzas as well as a build-yourown option, calzones, salads, subs, sides and slices. Everything from The New Colossus – a pesto-based pie composed of chicken, tomato, Parmesan and a balsamic drizzle – to The Lone Wolf – a pepperoni, sausage, ham, bacon, green pepper, onion, mushroom and black olive pizza – is not only creative and unique but also greatly satisfying and wholly flavorful.

Moreover, the menu is diverse enough that you can have a sumptuous dinner with friends on a Saturday night or you could come in to the bar on a Thursday up until 2 a.m. and get a slice and a beer for just a few bucks. Couple that with a mostly local – soon to be entirely local – rotating draft beer list and a slew of spirits, and there’s nothing you won’t be able to find at The Post.

As for what the future holds, Laura simply states, “There are days where we feel that we’ve outgrown the space.” And while the Neelys in a year or so may consider expanding, they have such a deep love and respect for the neighborhood that they’re unsure of what the exact future plans are. But the future, for now, isn’t of much concern at The Post. What’s more important is that people from the neighborhood as well as from the entire city feel comfortable enough

to pop in, get a slice and have some laughs.

And that’s what makes it all worth it. “This is fun,” Laura says with a smile. “It’s stressful and exhausting sometimes, but it’s fun too. It’s a lot more fun than sitting at a desk.” Nash wholeheartedly agrees: “It sure beat the cubicle life.” VT The Post is located at 1045 Goss Avenue and is open Monday-Wednesday 11 a.m.-midnight, Thursday-Friday 11 a.m.2 a.m., Saturday noon-2 a.m. and Sunday noon to midnight.

Elizabeth Pike, designer at Hikes Point Paint & Wallpaper, says that nothing quite affects the exterior of a home quite the way paint does. “Typically, designers offer three or four colors with the facade as a medium tone. Roofs and shutters should be dark like hair, eyebrows and lashes; trim should be light like the whites of the eyes and teeth. Not surprisingly, the most popular colored door is red like a mouth,” asserts Pike.

When choosing a front-door color that differs from the trim or roof colors, the experts at Dages Hikes Point Paint & Wallpaper ask that you consider how to link that color into the overall curb appeal. Yellow flowers in the landscaping, for example, make a great combination with a yellow door. Evergreens highlight a traditional hunter green door. Bench cushions and planters serve as great inspiration pieces to bridging exciting color onto a door as well.

“When selecting an overall exterior palette, first consider what statement you’d like your home to make. Is it a reflection of you?” asks Pike. Homes, after all, can be an incredibly revealing expression of the self when a little time and effort is put into them. Once this introspection is complete and you know what

you want to say, Pike says then you may consider answers to such pertinent questions as how many colors you would like, which color combinations are favorites and what the best placement for each color is. “Of course, if you need professional help, swing by Hikes Point Paint & Wallpaper for a complimentary color consultation,” says Pike earnestly.

Not just a paint company, Dages Hikes Point & Wallpaper offers the means to create the perfect facade beyond the mere use of color. It is Pike’s opinion that windows are the most important fixture of a home’s exterior: “Just as eyes are the window of the soul, windows are the eyes of the home. Homes’ exteriors are the faces we show the world.”

“Did you know that up to 50 percent of heating and cooling energy is lost through windows?” poses fellow designer Carolyn Mayfield. “That’s why many of our window-shade styles are designed to reduce solar heat that

very, very different. The horses are not on show like they are here. They’re locked away. You don’t see them until they come out for the race. Not even the owners are allowed to go down to the stables. It was a lovely experience.”

Prior to horses, Jan had a background in breeding whippets and racing pigeons. It was while working in the pub as a barmaid, hearing a patron talk about his experience in owning a racing horse, that she took interest in applying her given skills to something more ambitious.

Brian’s lifetime love of the sport fueled the daring endeavor to produce a Thoroughbred winner. Their success through teamwork and determination brought hope back to the poor community of Cefn Fforest outside of Blackwood in South Wales, which, after closing its mining facilities, had few prospects left.

The underdog story of common people producing a remarkable champion in a regal sport is full of charm, humor and tension. The film’s director, Louise Osmond, captures impassioned interviews with a graceful blend of stock footage and naturalistically re-enacted material worthy of Errol Morris docs.

Osmond, who is also touring with Jan and Brian in the tour talked about what makes the film compelling.

“I think it’s quite unusual.

People like Jan and Brian are kind of breaking the mold. We found it quite an elite world to operate in. You know the kind of people that you’re mixing with when you go to the owners and trainers – it’s upper crust Britain. It’s quite elite and it’s quite posh, so I think one of the fantastic things about [Jan and Brian] is they just didn’t PHOTOS COURTESY OF SONY

see – or they chose not to see that.”

The Speed’s film curator, Dean Otto, shared his enthusiasm for bringing the film to Louisville during the right time of year thanks to the support of Gary Springer with Sony Pictures Classics and Stu Pollard with the Louisville Film Society.

“I saw the film at the Toronto Film Festival last year, and it was actually during the week when I had been offered this job. It’s all about horseracing. It’s all about the class structure ... and this syndicate of owners who upended that whole model. I said, ‘This is a perfect film. I want to go to Louisville, and I want to screen this film here too.’”

Jan, Brian and Louise will make a stop in New York City before heading home, but their Louisville visit was a special one. Prior to the show, the guests of honor were presented with a framed proclamation from the Louisville Film Commission and Mayor Fischer acknowledging the beauty of the story they told through their film, which “… a horseracing city like Louisville can appreciate.” VT “Dark Horse” will be released exclusively at Baxter Avenue Theaters starting Friday, May 13.

Join Pandora Productions for the hysterical “Psycho Beach Party” featuring buff dudes and cool chicks! Chicklet Forrest, a teenage tomboy, desperately wants to be part of the male-dominated surf crowd on Malibu Beach in 1962. One thing getting in her way is her unfortunate tendency toward split personalities. Among them is a check-out girl, a radio talk show hostess, a male model and a voracious vixen named Ann Bowman who has nothing less than world domination on her mind. The show opens May 12 and runs through May 22 in The Henry Clay Theatre. Tickets are $20 in advance.

pets of the week Abbie is a big and beautiful domestic medium-hair mix who recently came to the Kentucky Humane Society when her owner became allergic to her. Abbie is a bit of a diva. She loves being carried around by her humans and treated to as much petting as possible. She loves to play with any available toy, especially the ones that crinkle and make lots of noise.

Abbie is very close to 4-year-old Butters and would love to be adopted with him. She is spayed, micro-chipped and up-todate on all vaccinations. Won’t you come visit Abbie today at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive in South Louisville?

Socks is a 7-year-old beagle mix whose owner could no longer care for him. Socks is a super fun guy who has lived with dogs and cats.

He is neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on vaccinations. Come visit him at the Kentucky Humane Society’s adoption center at the Hikes Point Feeders Supply, 3079 Breckenridge Lane.
