The Lexington National College campus hosted their annual, ‘Surgical

Technology Advisory Board Luncheon’ recently. The annual event was held

at the Crown Plaza hotel here in Lexington and was a very well-attended

affair. This annual function brings professionals from many of our area hos-

pitals, clinics, and out-patient facilities together with our staff, faculty, and

student representatives from our popular Surgical Technology program.

The event provides a forum for sharing programmatic updates, employ-

ment availability, and also proves an opportunity for professionals in the

region to provide information on maintaining the most up-to-date surgical

technology program we can provide. We would like to take this opportunity

to thank everyone who attended the 2012 event.

To All Our Valued Customers, Readers & Friends,

Spring is here! Babies have a way of bringing happiness to everyone they meet. I remember holding my newborn grandson, Luke Thomas, for the first time on an early spring day of April three years ago and being overwhelmed with joy. As I looked into his eyes, I saw a trusting, loving being, ready to start his life. The possi-bilities that await each child are infinite. It is a beautiful thing.

The cover feature of the month is Joli Salon and Day Spa at its new location in Hamburg, near Malone’s and Dance Theatre. “It’s all about the at-mosphere,” Owner Jessica Beall said. “Our clients say it’s like going to their best friend’s house. It’s very warm and welcoming.” It’s an experience from the moment you walk through the door. Page 14-15.

As always, thanks for your continued support. We pledge to continue providing you with a quality publication and provide you with the best resources for your everyday living.

All classes are taught by professional artists. Upcoming classes include Embroidery on Art Cloth, Painting as Abstraction, Landscapes with Acrylic and Water Based Oil Painting, and From Digital Camera to Computers. The full schedule of classes is available on the LASC Web site, www.LASCLEX.org.

Registrations can be made on-line or by phone or fax. Visa, MasterCard and Discover are accepted. Reg-

ister early as some classes fill quickly.

The Living Arts & Science Center is a not-for-profit

organization that provides creative and unique oppor-

tunities for exploration and education in the arts and

sciences. Art galleries, a science gallery, and arts and

science classes and workshops are provided year-round

for children and adults of all ages. In addition, the Liv-

ing Arts and Science Center partners with community

agencies and organizations to provide free hands-on

arts activities at community events and programs and classes for special needs and at-risk students. The Liv-ing Arts and Science Center is now in its 44th year and is working harder than ever to provide fun with arts and science to the community.

LIVING ARTS & SCIENCE CENTER APRIL CLASSES CLASS PRICING: Class prices are noted at the end of each description. LASC Members receive discounts for each class. The first price listed is the member price; the price designated with an (nm) is the non-member price. Individual memberships are available for $30 and family memberships are $50 and up for one-year. Embroidery on Art Cloth Tue: April 3, 10, 17K. Crane – a textile artist and art therapist.The embroidery sampler is a traditional way of both keeping track of and showing off your stitches. We’ll take it a step further and learn our embroidery on cus-tom printed samplers. You will learn numerous em-broidery stitches and be on your way to completing an art cloth sampler by the end of the class. Beginners are welcome. Teens/adults • 6-8 p.m. • $55/65 (nm).

Painting as Abstraction Tue: April 3, 10, 17, 24 Frank BoyerDifferent sensibilities and techniques are required for painting in an abstract style as opposed to works that are strictly representational. Many beginning artists, and even some more advanced, have difficulty grasping these concepts and often are challenged to tell the dif-ference between good execution and just chaos. How-ever, it is a genre that demands a different skill set than say, the portrait artist. You’ll practice many exercises to understand the techniques and aesthetics of abstraction and execute some thoughtful and pleasing paintings and collages. Teens/adults • 6-8 p.m. • $75/85 (nm). Landscapes with Acrylic and Water Based Oil Thu: April 5, 12, 19, 26Frank BoyerWe’ll learn the elements of good composition and many brush techniques for rendering sky planes, clouds, foli-age, rocks, etc., and some useful color theory, while ex-ploring the specific differences between rendering with acrylic and water based oil paints.

The new location at Hamburg only adds to that experi-ence.

“It’s very modern with a younger vibe,” she said. For Beall, hair came naturally.“My aunt and mom, Gypsie Thacker and Billie Hefner,

owned the first Aveda salon in Pikeville,” she said. “I al-ways knew I wanted to be a hairstylist, but my dad said I had to go to college.”

After graduating with a business degree, Beall went to Motif Beauty Academy in Winchester and then trained under Darlene Pitts at South Hill Salon on Broadway in

KY Horse Council awarded as Proud

Partner in ExcellenceThe Kentucky Department of Agricul-ture (KDA) has awarded the Kentucky Proud Partner in Excellence to the Ken-tucky Horse Council (KHC) in recogni-tion of its commitment to the growth and sustainability of agriculture in the commonwealth.

“Extending the Kentucky Proud program to equines has always been a Kentucky Horse Council goal,” re-marked Anna Zinkhon, president of the Kentucky Horse Council. “The horse industry provides a significant con-tribution to direct farm impact in the commonwealth, so we were delighted to work with the Department of Agricul-ture to get the equine Kentucky Proud program initiated. We are honored by this Partner of Excellence Award and plan to continue our active involvement in with the Agriculture Department in the Kentucky Proud Program.”

The Partner in Excellence award was presented to the council March 16, at the Sweet 16 tournament at Rupp Arena in Lexington. Ginny Grulke, KHC exec-utive director, accepted on behalf of the organization.

The Kentucky Horse Council has worked with KDA officials to create a Kentucky Proud for Equine application that makes sense to the horse industry and is manageable by the Department of Agriculture.

Any horse farm in Kentucky can ap-ply for Kentucky Proud status, with no cost involved. Additionally, if the horse farm cares for or produces Ken-tucky born horses, they are eligible for

matching marketing grants through the Kentucky Proud Program.

“We look forward to the growth of the Kentucky Proud program within the horse community,” said Ginny Grulke, executive director of the Kentucky Horse Council. “This program high-lights the farms and horses in Kentucky, which stimulates industry growth. In addition, we hope follow-on programs will also encourage those who own Kentucky horses to participate actively with their horses.”

For more information about Kentucky Proud for Equine, please contact the Kentucky Horse Council at [email protected] or 859-367-0509.

Established in 1962 and supported by Anita Madden and the Boys Ranch Foundation, the Bluegrass Boys Scholars Program is a program for gifted middle school boys. Initially a residential pro-gram, the program currently assists graduates of the Boys Ranch, scholars who are enrolled in prep school. The pro-gram will continue to identify and sup-port future candidates for prep school, and is most recently in partnership with The Lexington School on the Anita Mad-den Bluegrass Boys Scholarship.

The Anita Madden Bluegrass Boys Scholarship will pay all expenses for a single boy entering 6th grade. The Blue-grass Boys Scholarship covers all mate-rials, fees, after school care, and school trips for the student for all three years of Middle School. The scholarship is valued at $25,000 per year. The student chosen to receive the scholarship will be a socio-

economically disadvantaged (qualifying for free or reduced lunch), academically promising young man of high integrity and work ethic who has the support of an individual in his life who will partner with the school to assure his success.

The Lexington School is an independent day school for children ages 2 through 8th Grade. The curriculum is complete and challenging, and the culture is one of high expectation for every single stu-dent. Support and differentiation are essential for student success, and with small class sizes, a 7-1 student-teacher ratio, and highly-qualified faculty, The Lexington School maximizes each child’s potential.

Application deadline is May 1st for the 2012-2013 school year. Call Beth Pride at 278-0501at The Lexington School for a brochure and application packet

20% OFF

As winter and spring are slowly wear-

ing off, you’re starting to look forward

to summer and all of the nice warm things

that come with it: trips to the pool, vaca-

tion with friends or family, etc. Then, all

of a sudden, you realize that you may have

gotten a little lax with your body during the

winter months. Don’t worry; if you want to

lose weight by the summer, it’s still possible!

Below, you will find several helpful tips that

can help you lose the unwanted weight if you

implement them into your daily routine.

1) DRINK RIGHT: Make water your

beverage of choice. A glass of water has zero

calories compared to cola (8oz, 100 calo-

ries), light beer (8oz, 220 calories), and red

wine (8oz, 200 calories). Eliminating these

significant calories every day can help you

lose weight and keep it off. Alcohol and caf-

feine can also dehydrate you, which can turn

into a dangerous situation when you’re out

in the summer sun.

2) GET FIT: Start a daily fitness pro-

gram. The National Institutes of Health

(NIH) recommends 30-minute workouts

(which include daily aerobic exercise and

strength training every other day) as well

as a well-rounded routine for adults that are

trying to losing weight. You can learn a new

skill, such as yoga, pilates, zumba, etc. You

can also walk or ride a bike to get to your

destination instead of driving a car. Walking

5 miles or cycling 5 miles in 30 minutes will

burn up to 150 calories. Maintaining your

interest in exercise will aid your weight loss

efforts long past the summer.

3) AVOID DESSERTS, ICE CREAMS

AND SUCH: These are a big no-no if you

want to lose weight. The majority of des-

serts are full of sugar and ultimately will

turn into fat, causing excess weight gain.

Instead include low carb yogurt, cottage

cheese and low fat cheeses into your diet

when you crave something sweet. These

all contain protein which can help suppress

your hunger, and are essential in building

muscles.

4) EAT 4, 5 OR 6 SMALLER MEAL

PORTIONS: Instead of eating the nor-

mal 3 meals a day, try eating 4, 5 or even 6

smaller meals each day. Smaller more fre-

quent meals will help increase your metabo-

lism and allow your body to burn more fat

throughout the day.

5) INCLUDE OMEGA 3 FATTY AC-

IDS: These are the “good fats” that help in-

crease your metabolism and energy levels.

You can eat fish such as mackerel, salmon,

sardines and herring which are all rich in

Omega 3 fatty acids. Omega 3 fatty acids

are also proven to regulate blood pressure

and lower the risk of heart failure. They also

decrease intracellular inflammation to allow

your cells to burn better calories; therefore

they are very helpful in weight loss.

6) AVOID LATE NIGHT SNACKS: To

ensure food is fully digested before you go to

bed, don’t eat anything within 1-2 hours of

your bedtime. Anything not fully digested

will turn into fat as you sleep.

7) USE A WEIGHT LOSS FACILITY

GUIDED BY A BOARD CERTIFIED

BARIATRICIAN: If you have trouble los-

ing the weight on your own, seek the ex-

pertise of a non-surgical weight loss facility.

They may have a few other options that can

help you with your weight loss journey and

can look for metabolic and biochemical rea-

sons why you may not be losing weight.

If you would like help with formulating

your nutritional and metabolic plan to suc-

cessfully help you lose the winter pounds, call

Medical Bariatrics of Lexington at 859-263-

SLIM (7546). MBL is the home of Lexing-

ton’s only board-certified, non-surgical baria-

tricians. Our bariatricians will meet with you

at every visit and will modify your weight loss

plan to meet your specific needs. Give us a
