One of our many examples of<br />
experiential learning occurred this past<br />
March when students from High Point<br />
University rang the NASDAQ closing<br />
bell. HPU also rang the New York<br />
Stock Exchange closing bell in the fall.<br />
Parade Magazine lists HPU<br />
as one of the top 25 private schools<br />
in its annual “College A-List”<br />
28 new buildings<br />
completed or<br />
under construction<br />
HPU is one of only five<br />
Tree Campus USA Universities<br />
in North Carolina<br />
Yes, that’s right: $2,100,000,000 invested in a progressive<br />
strategy of expansion, improvement and growth, all focused<br />
on ensuring that every student receives an extraordinary<br />
education in an inspiring environment with caring people.<br />
EXTRAORDINARY<br />
New School<br />
of Education<br />
A new school of<br />
education will open its<br />
doors in August 2012.<br />
It’s one of four new<br />
academic buildings<br />
constructed since 2005.<br />
The number of students<br />
living on campus has<br />
grown 228% since 2005<br />
Forbes ranks HPU in the<br />
top seven percent of all universities<br />
and colleges in the U.S.<br />
Over the next 10 years, HPU’s transformation plan will grow from $300 million to $2.1 billion. This is truly extraordinary, not only because of the<br />
unprecedented investment, but for the impact it will have on our students. The focus will be on academics, holistic and values-based education, experiential<br />
learning and cutting-edge facilities and technology.<br />

What’s Inside<br />
COVER STORY<br />
23 Amazing Pace<br />
About the Cover:<br />
Cathy Pace is pictured in “The Park” at Allegacy Headquarters created for the community<br />
in 2001 to honor loved ones suffering from breast and ovarian cancer and to remember<br />
those who lost the battle. The Park, an idea of Allegacy President/CEO Ike Keener,<br />
features two ponds and a 32-inch bronze statue by internationally-known sculptor,<br />
Earline Heath King. The sculpture depicts three women stricken by breast cancer to<br />
show that the disease knows no age or ethnic boundaries. When Pace’s friend Alesia<br />
Turner was asked how she felt to be a cancer survivor, she answered “Alive, Beautiful<br />
and Victorious,” which became the name of the statue. Turner died of cancer in 2005.<br />

FROM<br />
SIDE<br />
ThIS<br />
Welcome to <strong>October</strong>! Yes, I’m SO glad fall is here, and I<br />
know that many of you feel the same way. September often<br />
seems like the “last gasp” of summer here in the South, with<br />
temperatures still in the 80s, and the trees still green. But<br />
<strong>October</strong>? <strong>October</strong> is really fall – with everything fall means,<br />
including the sight of beautiful leaves on the trees, the smell<br />
of bonfires on the air, the sounds of football crowds on<br />
Friday nights, and the feel of a chilly breeze floating through<br />
your hair. Not to mention Halloween and all of the fun<br />
costumes and candy can bring! My dear friend Robin Bralley<br />
and I kicked off the season at Wake Forest’s first football<br />
game, and we’re looking forward to many more.<br />
But nothing heralds the start of fall more to me than Breast<br />
Cancer Awareness Month. Having undergone the ordeal of<br />
breast cancer myself, it saddens me to think that every time<br />
this month rolls around, there is another whole year’s worth<br />
of women who were diagnosed with breast cancer since last<br />
<strong>October</strong>. But I believe in my heart that, with continued<br />
overwhelming support, we can find a cure for this disease<br />
that affects so many women!<br />
On our cover this month is the wonderful Cathy Pace of<br />
Allegacy Federal Credit Union! Allegacy has teamed up with<br />
Forsyth Woman since the very beginning, and Cathy and the<br />
Allegacy staff are very important partners with us. Be sure to<br />
read Cathy’s inspiring story on page 23.<br />
And DON’T MISS our 1st Annual Consignment Shop Hop –<br />
we’ll be touring around town on a gorgeous Coach bus to<br />
visit four of the wonderful consignment shops in our area. It<br />
will be a wonderful day of fun for women, and includes<br />
lunch at Big Shotz Tavern. See pages 26-27 for more details.<br />
Thanks once again to all of our advertisers and readers for<br />
their continued support, as we continue on the Forsyth<br />
Woman mission to celebrate the lives of women!<br />

Operation<br />
Sweet Tooth<br />
One event, one woman, one dream come true. Carolyn Blashek was in shock<br />
and felt helpless after 9-11, as we all did. She was able, however, to turn around her<br />
helplessness into an organization known worldwide as Operation Gratitude. Carolyn<br />
started sending individualized care packages and<br />
encouraging letters to our servicemen and -women<br />
touring in places like Iraq, Afghanistan and many other<br />
countries around the world. Operation Gratitude has so<br />
far sent out over 550,000 packages and has a goal of<br />
hitting 600,000 by the end of <strong>2010</strong>. Operation<br />
Gratitude runs off of volunteers and donations, and<br />
needs you and your leftover Halloween Candy.<br />
Several years ago, Chris Kammer, a dentist, started a<br />
candy buy-back program that donated its collections<br />
to Operation Gratitude. Last year we participated in<br />
the nationwide effort to collect candy for our heroes.<br />
In spite of poor weather, we<br />
were able to gather up 426<br />
pounds of candy. Not bad for<br />
our first effort, but this year<br />
we hope to double that<br />
amount. West Forsyth High<br />
School was our largest single<br />
donor. Operation Gratitude<br />
received 60 tons of candy last<br />
year, but say they still need more<br />
this year, setting a goal of twice<br />
as much as last year.<br />
So, how does it work? Candy is<br />
bought “back” from “trick-ortreaters”<br />
for one dollar per pound,<br />
up to five dollars. The candy is<br />
then mailed to Operation<br />
Gratitude, which then carefully<br />
repacks it for our brave soldiers.<br />
This year, we also hope to collect<br />
other items on their wish list,<br />
such as batteries, DVDs, flash drives, lip balm,<br />
small toys, and sunscreen, to name a few. (For a complete list,<br />
go to www.OperationGratitude.com.)<br />
The event takes place again at our studio, 2900 Lyndhurst<br />
Avenue, on November 7 from 3-5. The Robinson Dental<br />
Studio team will be assisted by the team of pediatric dentists,<br />
Drs. Gina Spangler and Gail Rohlfing. There will be special<br />
appearances by “Bolt” of the Winston-Salem DASH, the<br />
Fellowship of Christian Magicians and local music talent,<br />
LifeGiver, which will be a featured band at the Lexington BBQ<br />
Festival this year. There will be raffles for items, such as an Ipod<br />
shuffle and some great gift cards to raise money for<br />
shipping. Financial donations are also welcomed. You can also<br />
8/www.forsythwoman.com<br />
write a personal note<br />
to our heroes,<br />
thanking them for<br />
fighting for the<br />
freedoms we enjoy<br />
here in America.<br />
In response to his gift,<br />
one soldier wrote to<br />
Operation Gratitude, “I have received<br />
your care packages and done exactly<br />
what you asked, shared them with my<br />
troops and even some local Iraqi<br />
children. I wish you could see the<br />
smiles a simple piece of candy and a friendly face<br />
can bring. It’s hard for these young children,<br />
because all they have ever known is soldiers and<br />
danger. Thank you! Sincerely, SSG S.B.”<br />
So come out and join the fun, lighten your candy<br />
load and earn some bucks—or donate them to a great<br />
cause!<br />
Thank a Veteran today for all<br />
they have done for us.
Andrea (or Elvis) and her favorite trick-ortreaters.<br />

Bizzy Beez<br />
Where Shopping is All the Buzz!<br />
By Carolyn S. Peterson<br />
For Dahlgren, co-owner of Bizzy Beez, a table top<br />
gift registry shop in Bermuda Run, NC, the love<br />
of retail has been in her blood for many years. "I<br />
have been in retail since 1979, owning a<br />
Hallmark store and gift shop in Wake<br />
County, and I learned so much from those<br />
experiences."<br />
In 2000, Dahlgren and her<br />
business partner and cousin,<br />
Frances, opened their initial<br />
shop in the historic district of<br />
Mocksville. After being in<br />
downtown Mocksville for 8<br />
years, they outgrew the shop<br />
and began looking for another<br />
location, focusing on staying in<br />
Davie County. "Labor Day<br />
weekend of 2008, we relocated<br />
Bizzy Beez to Bermuda Run, NC,” said Dahlgren.<br />
The merchandise at Bizzy Beez changes every day, sometimes<br />
several times a day. “Our regular customers like knowing<br />
10 10 / / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
www.forsythwoman.com<br />
FALL is in the Air!<br />
New Items Arriving Daily!<br />
that, on any given day,<br />
they will see things<br />
they didn't see the last<br />
time they shopped with us,” noted Dahlgren. Her<br />
favorite part of Bizzy Beez, besides getting to know<br />
her customers, is merchandising, so attention to<br />
detail and a love of their business, sets the feel and<br />
look of Bizzy Beez apart from the moment you enter the shop.<br />
Bridal Registry is their specialty, with the convenience of an<br />
online registry page. Lines carried are VIETRI, JARS, GIEN,<br />
Italian and French stoneware and china, plus BAGWELL, to<br />
name a few. Some brides select china, and others opt for<br />
accessory pieces only. Also available is PANDORA, VERA<br />
BRADLEY, monogrammable items, Tervis Tumblers, and a<br />
large selection of wine glasses.<br />
For those last minute shoppers on the way to a friend's<br />
birthday party or a neighbor's baby shower, you are<br />
guaranteed to fine the perfect gift at Bizzy Beez.<br />
Although Dahlgren is not quite sure when the name Bizzy<br />
Beez became 'the name' for their shop, Dahlgren and Frances<br />
are always in perpetual motion from the beginning of their<br />
day to the end. "There is always something to do and when<br />
you love your business as much as we do, keeping everything<br />
fresh and welcoming requires a lot of work, but it is work that<br />
I love," remarked Dahlgren.<br />
Bizzy Beez is located at 5539-102 US Hwy 158 in Bermuda<br />
Run, NC. Hours of operation are: 9:30 – 6pm Monday –<br />
Friday; Saturday 9:30 – 5pm. After Thanksgiving, shopping<br />
hours will be extended to 1-5pm on Sundays. For more<br />
information call 998-0341.

Effective New Laser-Assisted Fat Loss Offers New Hope<br />
By Dr. Damian Scelfo<br />
Dr. Damian Scelfo of Winston-Salem<br />
announces the launch of the Lapex<br />
2000 BCS LipoLaser, a low-level laser<br />
designed to remove fat and contour the body<br />
without invasive surgery. It is one of the<br />
very first in the state of North Carolina, and<br />
it’s right here in our backyard.<br />
The launch of the Lapex 2000 BCS coincides<br />
with the conclusion of a study performed at<br />
Louisiana State University, in which the<br />
objectives were to demonstrate, confirm and<br />
quantify the improvements in body<br />
contouring and reduction in the appearance<br />
in cellulite, as evidenced by photography.<br />
The results of the study, published in Obesity<br />
Surgery - The Journal of Metabolic Surgery<br />
and Allied Care, showed that low level laser<br />
treatment could provide safe and significant<br />
girth loss, that patients receiving treatment<br />
with the Lapex 2000 BCS experienced<br />
between 0.5” and 1.0” loss with each<br />
treatment, and that the results were<br />
cumulative. The girth loss from the waist<br />
gave clinically and statistically significant<br />
cosmetic improvement.<br />
What It Does to Fat (Adipose) Cells...<br />
The stunning series of photographs that<br />
follow impressively demonstrates the low<br />
level laser’s ability to emulsify adipose tissue.<br />
The pictures show the collapse of the rigid<br />
adipose cell and the secretion of triglycerides<br />
and fatty acids.<br />
How Does the Lapex 2000 BCS Work?<br />
In contrast to high-power, high-heat lasers<br />
that are used in various surgical procedures,<br />
the new Lapex 2000 BCS laser produces a<br />
low-level or cold output that has no thermal<br />
effect on the body’s tissue. Instead, the noninvasive<br />
laser helps the body absorb fat by<br />
stimulating biological function. Excess fat is<br />
then removed naturally by the body without<br />
the negative side effects and downtime<br />
associated with more invasive procedures,<br />
such as liposuction.<br />
Lapex 2000 BCS patients are generally<br />
treated nine times over three weeks. Each of<br />
18 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
the nine sessions takes 40 minutes.<br />
Treatment is delivered 10 minutes at a time,<br />
across the stomach region from side to side,<br />
but treatment times will vary depending on<br />
what body part the patient wants to contour.<br />
The Lapex 2000 BCS LipoLaser achieved<br />
FDA market clearance in 2008, and the<br />
protocol is completely non-invasive. Patients<br />
feel nothing during the in-office procedure,<br />
and there is no downtime or recovery period<br />
needed afterwards. Instead, patients can<br />
resume normal activities immediately.<br />
The Lapex BCS LipoLaser can safely and<br />
effectively treat the following areas in both<br />
men and women:<br />
• Waistline<br />
• Mid & Lower Abdomen<br />
• Upper, Mid, & Lower Back<br />
• Buttocks & Thigh Areas<br />
• Arms & Underarms<br />
• Chin & Face<br />
“Results from this study, and previous work<br />
that we’ve done, show that the cells were not<br />
destroyed by laser treatment, but showed<br />
consistent pore formation in the membranes<br />
of the cells confirming the ability of laser<br />
irradiation to release glycerol, free fatty acids<br />
to shrink the cells and ultimately maneuver<br />
fat loss,” says Dr. Vinod Podichetty. “The<br />
LipoLaser represents a promising and novel,<br />
non-invasive technology for cosmetic recontouring<br />
of body fat,” adds Dr. Frank<br />
Greenway, lead investigator of the study.<br />
The research, published in the April 15<br />
online version of Obesity Surgery - The<br />
Journal of Metabolic Surgery and Allied<br />
Care, was posted on May 5, <strong>2010</strong> on the<br />
Journal’s website: www.obesitysurgery.com.<br />
What Patients Have To Say...<br />
"I lost (4) four inches in my stomach on my<br />
first Lapex BCS LipoLaser session! I have<br />
gone down (2) two pant sizes since starting."<br />
- Dana<br />
"Best thing I ever invested in for myself! I<br />
love the staff and the results." - Shirley<br />
“Lapex BCS LipoLaser in combination (with<br />
my exercise) has allowed me to sculpt my<br />
body as desired." - Sue<br />
"Like everyone else, I was interested in losing<br />
inches, but was not interested in trying<br />
invasive procedures. Even with diet and<br />
exercise those stubborn areas were difficult<br />
to reduce. Although somewhat skeptical, I<br />
was excited to try out this new laser that was<br />
designed for body contouring and fat<br />
reduction.The LipoLaser treatments are not<br />
only pain-free and non-invasive, they are<br />
relaxing and most importantly, they work!" -<br />
Roberta Flack (Academy Award Winning<br />
Singer/Song Writer)<br />
Why Patients Are Excited About The<br />
Lapex 2000 BCS...<br />
With the ever-growing technology of lasers<br />
that produce no heat, but instead create<br />
amazing physiological effects on the body,<br />
the LipoLaser literally reduces inches right<br />
before your eyes. While many struggle with<br />
dieting, exercise, detoxification, and other<br />
programs to lose inches, the LipoLaser does<br />
all the work for you, and doesn’t damage<br />
any tissues.<br />
For those struggling to make changes in how<br />
they look and feel, this laser “deflates” fat<br />
cells and breaks down the fat!<br />

Salem College’s Martha H. Fleer Center for Adult Education<br />
An Ageless Educational Experience<br />
By Carolyn S. Peterson<br />
American businessman Henry L. Doherty once said,<br />
“Get over the idea that only children should spend<br />
their time in study. Be a student as long as you<br />
still have something to learn, and this will mean all your<br />
life.” No place echoes Mr. Doherty’s thoughts better than<br />
at Salem College’s Martha H. Fleer Center for Adult<br />
Education, where men and women are reaching and<br />
achieving their educational dreams daily.<br />
‘Anyone who stops learning is old,<br />
whether twenty or eighty.’ – Henry Ford<br />
“Through the Fleer Center for Adult<br />
Education, Salem College offers male and<br />
female students, ages 23 and up,<br />
opportunities to continue their education on<br />
either a part-time or full-time basis. Our<br />
students, most who have already gotten their<br />
professional lives underway, realize that<br />
education throughout one’s life is absolutely<br />
essential; no one is ever too old to gain from<br />
an education and an experience of a campus<br />
and student body like that of Salem,” said<br />
Suzanne Williams, Dean of the Fleer Center.<br />
All students, whether those attending classes<br />
at Salem College, which is an all women’s<br />
school for the traditional college age students and those<br />
that attend through the Fleer Center for Adult Education,<br />
consisting of both men and women, are included in all<br />
campus activities, including leadership roles in groups and<br />
clubs, the offer of studying abroad, as well as any oncampus<br />
academic or cultural event.<br />
“One of the great aspects to Salem College’s Fleer Center<br />
for Adult Education program is the offering of degrees.<br />
Any degree that a traditional Salem College student might<br />
choose is available to our Fleer students. We give our<br />
adult students careful guidance with their class selection<br />
and possible grants and scholarships that are available.<br />
We realize, ‘it is their dime, their time,’ with many having<br />
other obligations like families, full time jobs and the other<br />
responsibilities that come with being an older student.<br />
The Fleer Center students work at their own pace and are<br />
able to attend on a full time or part time basis. Our<br />
degree programs are very affordable; when comparing<br />
fulltime status at Salem College with fulltime status at<br />
other adult degree programs in our region, Salem costs<br />
less, even compared to some state supported colleges and<br />
universities," Williams stated.<br />
‘Education is not the filling of a bucket, but the<br />
lighting of a fire,’- W.B. Yeats<br />
At age 52, Jamie Lee Ridge is a woman comfortable in<br />
her own skin, and with the realization that she can make<br />
her own way in life and in her educational decisions.<br />
20 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
“I have made several non-traditional<br />
decisions in my life. I went to barber<br />
instead of cosmetology school and opened<br />
my own successful barber shop, so when I<br />
decided to return to school and get my<br />
bachelor’s degree, my research into local<br />
programs led me to Salem College’s Fleer<br />
Center,” recalled Ridge. After an initial<br />
informational meeting on Salem’s<br />
programs, Ridge found herself realizing<br />
that a college degree at age 50 was within<br />
her reach, if she would just reach. And<br />
reach for it she did. “At the end of my<br />
sophomore year, I declared my major of<br />
Studio Art. I continue to savor the journey to a four year<br />
degree that I am taking here at Salem,” commented<br />
Ridge.<br />
‘Walk through life as if you have something new<br />
to learn and you will.’ –Mortimer Adler<br />
Much like Jamie Ridge, Harry Lerner had an established<br />
and successful career, but he always felt his life’s calling<br />
was in helping other people. “After a career in IT<br />
management and then as a general contractor, I found<br />
myself looking back on the psychology degree that I had<br />
started. Now I am looking forward to becoming a child<br />
and adolescent clinical psychologist and fulfilling the<br />
dream of having a career that is truly rewarding. The<br />
professors at Salem College recognize the importance that<br />
adult students place on their education. They are<br />
supportive academic professionals that have one common<br />
goal—to see that each student succeeds. Unlike larger<br />
public schools, Salem values you as an individual, not as a<br />
number. I have no doubt this is where I am supposed to<br />
be at the time I am supposed to be here,” said Lerner.<br />
Salem College will be holding InfoSessions for the Fleer<br />
Center on <strong>October</strong> 19 at 10:00 am and 5:30 pm. Attend<br />
one of the sessions and your registration fee will be<br />
waived, and the Fleer Center will also request and pay for<br />
your transcripts. For more information on the Fleer<br />
Center for Adult Education at Salem College call<br />

The 1st Annual Con<br />
By Meghan E.W. Corbett<br />
Consignment is not a new concept. It has<br />
been around for hundreds of years, mostly<br />
because it is a very simple process. People put<br />
items of worth into the hands of someone with<br />
the means to sell those items. If the items are<br />
not sold, they are reclaimed by the original<br />
owner, or in some cases, donated to charity.<br />
During a time when consumers are watching<br />
every penny spent and promoting a healthier<br />
planet by recycling, what could be more<br />
economical or green than consignment?<br />
Forsyth Woman has decided to embark on a<br />
fantastic journey through all that consignment<br />
has to offer with its 1st ANNUAL<br />
CONSIGNMENT SHOP HOP on Saturday,<br />
<strong>October</strong> 23rd. The day will begin at 9:00 am at<br />
the West Forsyth High School parking lot in<br />
Clemmons where tour goers will park and<br />
board the beautiful Coach America bus. The<br />
bus will then head to the first two stops on the<br />
tour before taking a detour for an all-inclusive<br />
lunch at Big Shotz Tavern in Clemmons! With<br />
other surprises and giveaways happening<br />
throughout the day, this is an event not to be<br />
missed. Tour goers can expect to be back<br />
sometime around 5:00 pm. So read on and<br />
learn a little more about the shops featured this<br />
year on the 1st ANNUAL CONSIGNMENT<br />
SHOP HOP!<br />

Etc. Consignment Shoppe<br />
With more than 10,000 square feet of everything from namebrand<br />
clothing for the entire family to furniture and<br />
accessories, it is no surprise Etc. Consignment Shoppe has<br />
been named the “Readers’ Choice” for consignment three<br />
years in a row! In business since 1995, it is obvious that<br />
owner Debbie Shough knows what her customers are looking<br />
for and delivers. For Shough, her customers are “daily<br />
blessings” in her life. “We love to see several generations of<br />
the same family come into the store,” she says. Participating<br />
in this event is simply another page in the long relationship<br />
Debbie has built with Forsyth Woman, as well as her<br />
customers. It is a great way for past, present and future<br />
customers to see the unbelievable selection available through<br />
consignment. “I think it is a fun day for women to be<br />
together, and I of course love the idea that they are visiting my<br />
shop and the others on the tour,” said Shough. “A great day<br />
of fellowship, fun and savings.”<br />
My Best Friend’s Closet<br />
The next stop on the tour will be a first for all travelers. With<br />
opening day scheduled just one week before the tour, tour<br />
goers will have the opportunity to be some of the first to<br />
browse the merchandise at My Best Friend’s Closet! “It has<br />
been a dream of mine to open my own consignment boutique<br />
for many years now,” said April Tilley, owner of My Best<br />
Friend’s Closet. “This is a great opportunity for me to get<br />
started,” said Tilley. “I am very excited to be a part of the<br />
community of great consignment shops we have here in<br />
Forsyth County. We have an amazing community and I’m<br />
proud to be a part of it.” Focusing on women’s clothing, My<br />
Best Friend’s Closet promises to make women feel great about<br />
themselves at a fraction of the cost of department<br />
and specialty stores. “I’d like [customers] to know<br />
that I look forward to meeting and working with<br />
them,” said Tilley. “I want to work with each<br />

Handpicked Consignment<br />
Located in Bethania, the next stop promises the very best of<br />
quality. Owner Paige Wheeler stresses the importance of<br />
being selective when buying from consignors. “I am very<br />
picky about what I expect,” said Wheeler. “What I’m not<br />
picky about is brands.” It does not seem that Wheeler has<br />
much to worry about, considering she has been in possession<br />
of a handmade boiled wool coat with minimal stitching, a<br />
stunning Diane von Furstenberg dress, and clothing by Sacred<br />
Threads, a company who has donated proceeds to help those<br />
in need in Africa. “People bring you quality things that are<br />
one-of-a-kind,” said Wheeler. In addition to the vast selection<br />
of clothing, Handpicked Consignment offers a remarkable<br />
selection of jewelry. Displaying both new and vintage pieces<br />
all over the store, it will be hard to miss the silver, gold, gems,<br />
and even costume jewelry available to satisfy all styles. “I<br />
always loved consignment and the treasure hunt…that’s where<br />
you can get good quality deals,” said Wheeler. “I think the<br />
customers are going to love the fact that they are going to see<br />
what Winston-Salem has to offer.”<br />
Classic Consignments<br />
The next stop on the tour will take everyone to Classic<br />
Consignments in Advance, where owner Gigi will amaze<br />
customers with gorgeous furniture and home accessories.<br />
Though owned with partners for years, Gigi took over the<br />
business about a year and a half ago with the drive to take<br />
one person’s consignment and turn it into another’s remodel.<br />
“We really like what we see from people trying to downsize,”<br />
said Gigi. “I find that people like to change things up.” Just<br />
because the economy is facing hardships, the desire for variety<br />
and rejuvenation is strong, and consignment offers the ability<br />
for change without the stress of financial impact. Gigi is<br />
hoping people on the tour will be introduced to the treasure<br />
that waits within consignment. “I really like to invite people<br />
to visit the store and bring consignment,” said Gigi. “We are<br />
interested in people of all ages because that’s how we get all<br />
different things.” This variety is what consignment shops are<br />
all about. The high quality, great price and remarkable, oneof-a-kind<br />
selection!<br />

Media Contact: Laura Ward – Founder of Prayers in a Bowl Project<br />
Winston-Salem, NC— On the evening of <strong>October</strong> 7, <strong>2010</strong>, the first annual Prayers in a<br />
Bowl Project – an evening of good food, grandmothers and grace – is being held at The<br />
Millennium Center located in downtown Winston-Salem. Sponsored by Forsyth Woman<br />
and Forsyth Family magazines, the event is a motivational fundraiser for The Nyanya<br />
Project – a non-profit organization committed to training skills to African grandmothers<br />
who are raising AIDS orphans to help support their families. Speakers Mary Martin<br />
Niepold, founder of The Nyanya Project, and Dr. Debbie Lanier, Pastor of Hope Community<br />
Church in Winston-Salem, will share their inspirational stories of success and faith.<br />
The Prayers in a Bowl Project is dedicated to increasing awareness about the growing<br />
number of grandmothers and grandfathers across the world who are faced with the<br />
challenges and joys of raising their grandchildren on their own. Prayers in a Bowl Project<br />
founder, Laura Ward, was inspired by her own parents who raised Ward’s niece.<br />
“The number of grandparents raising young children is staggering and its growing every<br />
year,” said Ward. “To me, they are truly the forgotten “heroes” in many families. At a time<br />
when grandparents should be enjoying their retirement and reaping the fruits of their labor,<br />
many are forced to take on the emotional and financial stress of raising their children’s<br />
children. And how can they say no when a child’s future is at stake?”<br />
The Prayers in a Bowl Project hopes to inspire people to look at their own lives and<br />
see the infinite possibilities in helping others. Dr. Debbie Lanier will speak on the day to<br />
day process of seeking greatness in our lives and the reality that no dream is too big to<br />
accomplish. “The evening is about seeing beyond our personal limitations and striving to<br />
reach beyond the “NO’s” in life,” said Ward. “Tapping into greatness at any age and<br />
celebrating the power of miracles is at the very heartbeat of this event.”<br />
Mary Martin Niepold, a Senior Lecturer of Journalism at Wake Forest University, 2009<br />
Purpose Prize Fellow and published writer, will round out the evening by sharing her<br />
personal journey of faith which led to the founding of The Nyanya Project. “Faith is really<br />
about action. You pay attention to what moves you, listen to guidance – then back it up<br />
with action. I see it everyday – whether it’s with our African grandmothers or students at<br />
Wake Forest,” Niepold said.<br />

The pelvic floor – an integrated<br />
hammock of muscles, tendons and<br />
ligaments that support the position of<br />
the bladder, vagina, uterus and rectum<br />
within the pelvis – makes up the floor of<br />
your body’s core. A weakened or<br />
damaged pelvic floor doesn’t properly<br />
support the pelvic organs. The<br />
weakened support can lead to urinary or<br />
fecal incontinence; sagging or prolapse of<br />
the uterus, bladder or rectum toward the<br />
entrance of the vagina; or painful<br />
intercourse. Although pelvic floor<br />
disorders don’t exclusively trouble<br />
women who have given birth, they often<br />
start during pregnancy due to the weight<br />
and pressure of the baby.<br />
About 70 percent of all women will<br />
suffer from disorders of the pelvic floor<br />
at some point during their lives. But the<br />
good news is that there are ways to<br />
minimize damage to the pelvic floor<br />
during pregnancy and childbirth, and a<br />
number of methods available to<br />
successfully treat problems that arise<br />
following delivery. Here, Scott<br />
Washburn, MD, an obstetriciangynecologist<br />
with Lyndhurst Gynecologic<br />
Associates who is affiliated with the Sara<br />
Lee Center for Women’s Health at<br />
Forsyth Medical Center, explains the<br />
relationship between pregnancy and<br />
pelvic floor problems and how the Sara<br />
Lee Center for Women’s Health’s<br />
Continence and Pelvic Floor Care<br />
Program can help.<br />
What is a woman’s pelvic floor like<br />
normally, and how does it change<br />
during pregnancy and childbirth?<br />
The pelvic floor is a lot like a hammock<br />
in that the muscles, tendons and<br />
ligaments are interwoven together to<br />
provide a strong and flexible support<br />
system for the bladder, vagina, uterus<br />
and rectum. There are also some<br />
important nerves and blood vessels that<br />
run through the pelvic area and are<br />
critical in feeding the muscles and<br />
helping them function properly. During<br />
30 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
"The Doctor's In"<br />
By Scott Washburn, MD<br />
Overcoming Pelvic Floor Disorders<br />
pregnancy, there’s a lot more blood flow<br />
in the pelvis. First-time mothers and<br />
moms who haven’t had a vaginal<br />
delivery yet can experience pressure and<br />
a feeling of pelvic congestion as the<br />
muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerves<br />
are asked to stretch and accommodate a<br />
baby.<br />
What problems can this stretching<br />
cause, and are they permanent?<br />
During the process of vaginal delivery,<br />
the integrated hammock of the pelvic<br />
floor can be stretched beyond its<br />
capacity and be damaged. The damage<br />
can affect muscles and ligaments but also<br />
the nerves that can help those muscles<br />
function. The damaged hammock<br />
system supports the bladder, uterus and<br />
rectum less well, which can cause urinary<br />
incontinence, difficulty controlling<br />
flatulence and stool, and pelvic pressure<br />
from a dropping uterus. Frequently the<br />
damage heals on its own or is<br />
compensated for by nearby support<br />
structures so that the symptoms caused<br />
by the damage to the pelvic floor<br />
hammock disappear within a few weeks<br />
or months after the baby is born. In<br />
some cases, however, these problems can<br />
last longer than a few months or can<br />
gradually progress over several decades<br />
to become problematic. Occasionally,<br />
healing of vaginal tears or episiotomies<br />
that occur at delivery can result in the<br />
formation of scar tissue that can lead to<br />
pain during intercourse.<br />
Is it possible to treat<br />
these conditions?<br />
Yes! The good news is that there are<br />
several non-surgical options available to<br />
successfully help women who are<br />
suffering from pelvic floor disorders.<br />
One of the easiest and most common<br />
therapies that women have probably<br />
heard about is Kegel exercises. This<br />
involves contracting the pelvic muscles as<br />
tightly as possible to increase blood flow,<br />
speed healing and strengthen the pelvic<br />
floor. However, Kegel exercises are only<br />
effective at treating urinary incontinence<br />
and pain in about 10 percent of cases.<br />
To help improve the efficacy of Kegel<br />
exercises, we recommend directed<br />
physical therapy. This six-week<br />
treatment, which includes six weekly<br />
rehabilitation visits in a doctor’s office,<br />
uses a probe to measure pressure in the<br />
vagina so that patients can learn the<br />
proper way to perform Kegel exercises.<br />
Then, patients go home and practice<br />
what they’ve learned on their own.<br />
Using this simple, painless method, we’re<br />
able to increase the effectiveness of<br />
Kegels from 10 percent to 80 percent for<br />
patients with mild urinary incontinence.<br />
For women who have more severe pelvic<br />
floor disorders, there are also<br />
medications available and surgical<br />
methods that can help fix the problems.<br />
What is the Continence and<br />
Pelvic Floor Care Program, and how<br />
can it help?<br />
Developed by the Sara Lee Center for<br />
Women’s Health at Forsyth Medical<br />
Center, the Continence and Pelvic Floor<br />
Care Program connects women with<br />
continence and pelvic floor disorders<br />
with physicians who are experts on these<br />
conditions. Our incontinence counselor<br />
is available free of charge to set up initial<br />
appointments for women with a local<br />
gynecologist, urogyne-cologist or<br />
urologist who is a continence and pelvic<br />
floor specialist and also serves as a<br />
liaison between patients and the<br />
specialists’ offices. She also follows<br />
patients throughout their treatment to<br />
ensure they are having their healthcare<br />
needs met. Since the program began,<br />
more than 100 women have been able to<br />
get immediate help from a continence<br />
and pelvic floor disorder specialist<br />
without having to wait on their primary<br />
care physician for a referral.<br />

Let’s Talk About Decorating An Office<br />
By Ava Lewandowski<br />
“Often we neglect to furnish our offices. We get into the daily grind and forget<br />
that our workspace needs to nourish us and feed our creativity.” ~ Joni Rose<br />
I love being an Interior Redesigner! Yes, I’ll admit that often door and ask, ‘Is this really my office?’ Thank you so much for<br />
when I first see a room the thought crosses my mind, “Can I your help.”<br />
really make a difference?” It is then that I remind myself, “Just It is hard to convey the angles in this office in a picture. The<br />
follow the steps of Redesign.” Not too long ago I had the table sat where the bookcase unit now resides and the<br />
opportunity to do a redesign in a business office. The<br />
bookcase unit sat against the wall where the 2 pictures are now<br />
principles of Redesign can be<br />
hung. My first thoughts after<br />
applied to any room, whether<br />
it is where you live or where Before<br />
seeing this office for the first<br />
time was, “Can I really make<br />
you work.<br />
a difference?” The answer<br />
This office was transformed<br />
was yes!<br />
with the things my client had<br />
in his previous office. This was<br />
his comment after the redesign:<br />
“I am so pleased with the way<br />
your plans for my office<br />
created a place of beauty and<br />
comfort. I never would have<br />
believed the unusual angles<br />
could be utilized so efficiently.<br />
I have always loved coming to<br />
work but now…wow! Every<br />
day upon arrival I stand at the<br />
Before<br />

After<br />
Whether it’s your home office<br />

natural light will help you be<br />
Beautiful homes,<br />
one room at a time<br />
more productive and add a calming feeling to your workspace.<br />
• Create a warm and inviting space by adding a few lamps.<br />
• Bring in pictures of family and friends framed in<br />
coordinating frames to go with your office décor. Pictures of<br />
happy times…like family vacations or celebrations are great<br />
choices.<br />
• Make your office space a place you won’t mind spending<br />
time by hanging art that reminds you of something you really<br />

Go Back 2 Bollywood<br />
The “Hollywood-Bollywood” Masala Bhangra Workout® MASTER CLASS Comes to Winston-Salem Nov. 20th!<br />
By Cortney Hill Wilson<br />
Nearly 100 people in the Triad<br />
and surrounding areas were<br />
introduced to a spicy new Indian<br />
dance workout on Jan. 2nd called<br />
the Masala Bhangra Workout ®<br />
with Master Instructor Mickela<br />
Mallozzi of New York. Folks<br />
walked away mesmerized, and<br />
wanting more.<br />
When FitTV star Sarina Jain,<br />
creator of the Masala Bhangra<br />
Workout ® , gave a thrilling 90-minute master class<br />
on Feb. 20th, over 130 people joyously danced,<br />
screamed and shook to the intoxicating beats of<br />
folk Bhangra and Bollywood music.<br />
Now that Masala Bhangra Workout ® classes are<br />
offered in the Triad, people are flocking to them,<br />
and loving this fresh spin on dance-fitness.<br />
“The first time I presented, I knew I would be<br />
back,” said Mallozzi, Master Instructor, who’s<br />
been featured on the Dr. Oz Show, NBC’s Today Show and<br />
ABC News. “The energy in North Carolina is contagious;<br />
34 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
everywhere I present, people fall in love with<br />
it, so North Carolina, I can’t wait to see you<br />
all again, and bring an even more spectacular<br />
master class than the first!” (Visit www.FiF-<br />
Element.com to hear a personal message from<br />
Mickela before performing at the <strong>2010</strong><br />
ZUMBA Convention!)<br />
While the Masala Bhangra Workout ®<br />
continues to thrill people’s<br />
hearts, minds and bodies,<br />
Cortney H. Wilson,<br />
founder of FiF Element<br />
(Fitness is Fun!) ® , and<br />
Salem College, have<br />
teamed up again to<br />
present The ‘Hollywood-<br />
Bollywood’ Masala<br />
Bhangra Workout Master<br />
Class with Master<br />
Instructor and international trainer Mickela Mallozzi,<br />
Saturday, Nov. 20th, 3-5 p.m. at Salem College’s Bryant Hall.<br />
Also enjoy henna artistry, light refreshments, apparel and<br />

Local radio personality gives kudos to the Masala<br />
Bhangra Workout ®<br />
If you listen to the Tom Joyner Morning Show on 97.1<br />
WQMG on your drive to work, you’ve probably heard the<br />
velvety voice of Renee Vaughn. While Vaughn keeps the<br />
community informed on their health through her Community<br />
Focus show, she has taken it upon herself to add the Masala<br />
Bhangra Workout ® to her own workout schedule.<br />
“I LOVE this workout! So much so, that I take it with<br />
Cortney Wilson at least three days a week, and because of<br />
that, I have dropped at least two pant sizes,” said Vaughn.<br />
“When you have a great instructor, along with a great<br />
workout, you can’t help but stick with it. So if you haven’t<br />
tried it, you’re truly depriving yourself of the best hour you<br />
can experience in an exercise class!”<br />
“This celebratory workout blends traditional folk Bhangra<br />
with glamorous Bollywood moves, and is designed to<br />
strengthen and tone your whole body,” said Wilson who<br />
teaches Masala Bhangra classes throughout the Triad. “I<br />
absolutely love everything I teach, but I can honestly say that<br />
not only is this workout amazing, it really is effective. So come<br />
out to the Master Class, and add the Masala Bhangra<br />
Workout to your fitness regimen, and watch the pounds fly<br />
off! Ballè-Ballè!”<br />

Ronald McDonald House<br />
of Winston-Salem<br />
Families Are Stronger Together<br />
By Carolyn S. Peterson<br />
No matter what age you are, when you are sick, there<br />
is no place like home and nothing better than having<br />
those you love close by. That is the thought that<br />
Ronald McDonald House (RMH) Charities was founded on<br />
over 35 years ago; children feel better and cope with illness<br />
better with their families. Ronald McDonald House of<br />
Winston-Salem is celebrating a milestone with the expansion<br />
from a 17 bedroom, 14,000 square feet facility to a 35<br />
bedroom, 31,000 square feet facility to better serve families of<br />
sick children who come to our community for medical care.<br />
Serving the Community - One Child,<br />
One Family at a Time<br />
Ronald McDonald House of Winston-Salem had its<br />
beginnings with the love of two parents, Penny and Dick<br />
Latham, for their 3 year old son, Alan, who died of cancer.<br />
“We received our first family at the house on September 14,<br />
1984. Back then we had accommodations for 10 families per<br />
night. We later expanded in 1997 to 17 bedrooms and several<br />
common areas, but with our new addition we will be better<br />
able to reach those families burdened with worry for their<br />
child, and ensure them that we are here to help. With our<br />
most recent expansion, we hope to help more families during<br />
a stressful time in their lives,” said Anita Ogburn, RMH<br />
Executive Director.<br />
The 35-bedroom Ronald McDonald House provides temporary<br />
lodging and support services for families from outside the<br />
community whose children are receiving treatment at local<br />
medical facilities. “Our house allows families to stay together<br />
in a ‘home-away-from-home’ setting conveniently located near<br />
local medical facilities.<br />
We address the financial<br />
concerns of families by<br />
providing<br />
accommodations,<br />
including food and<br />
laundry for a minimal<br />
donation or free of charge<br />
if needed. Families come<br />
together and share their<br />
concerns, their worries,<br />
36 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
and draw strength and<br />
support from being at the<br />
house,” commented<br />
Mindy Bloom, RMH<br />
Director of Development.<br />
A Mission of Care<br />
Over the 26 years since<br />
the Ronald McDonald<br />
House of Winston-Salem<br />
opened its doors, almost<br />
700 families have stayed<br />
at the house each year<br />
and the Board of Directors hopes to double that number with<br />
the additional 18 bedrooms. “Fundraising for the new<br />
addition began in 2007 and $4 million was raised. The<br />
community really understands the importance of the house to<br />
the families, and support came through individuals, civic<br />
groups, corporations and foundations. The new area of the<br />
house includes an elevator, making the house more accessible<br />
for families with special needs. A multipurpose room has also<br />
been included where meetings, workshops and other events<br />
vital to the house can be held. Our kitchen and dining area is<br />
almost 1,000 square feet with cooktop stoves and ovens.<br />
Volunteers and groups will be able to cook in the kitchen or<br />
bring in prepared meals, and families can do the same thing.<br />
The rooms that we had before were always put to good use,<br />
but we hope to serve and care for our families even better,”<br />
Kaye Lambert, RMH Board President stated.<br />
Winston-Salem is very fortunate to have two of the best<br />
medical facilities in the country. When you need their medical<br />
services, you truly realize how blessed we are. But imagine<br />
having to uproot your family to have your child receive lifesaving<br />
treatment and not being able to return to your home<br />
each day. That is where Ronald McDonald House of<br />
Winston-Salem steps in and offers families outside of Forsyth<br />
County, who have a child 18 years old or younger receiving<br />
medical care in our community. a home-away-from-home.<br />
“The average stay for a family is eight days and most are<br />
referred to us through medical staff. They can stay for 21<br />
nights and then can be placed back on the waiting list to<br />
repeat the cycle. Historically, we have<br />
had a waiting list of 12-22 families,<br />
but we hope the addition of 18<br />
bedrooms will quickly alleviate this<br />
situation,” said Ogburn.<br />

Your Dream Trip at Dream Prices<br />
By Maria Glazener<br />
Sandy white beaches, crystal blue water, palm trees<br />
swaying in the breeze – sounds like a lifestyle only the<br />
rich and famous can afford these days, doesn’t it? Well,<br />
actually, it’s not, thanks to a new, up and coming travel<br />
website. Your Travel Dreams powered by Rovia is the perfect<br />
solution for all your vacation dreams!<br />
Travel agencies have taken a hard hit in the previous years.<br />
Many stores are closing their doors, leaving vacationers to<br />
fend for themselves when booking vacations. Maneuvering<br />
through travel websites can be tedious and time-consuming;<br />
pair that with the fact that there is no personalization<br />
anymore.<br />
That is where Vicky Denny and Your Travel Dreams come in.<br />
Vicky has a full-time job in business. She loves interacting<br />
with people and helping solve their problems. But as a sign of<br />
the times, she realized that everyone needs more than one<br />
stream of income. Vicky combined her love of customer<br />
service with travel and found the perfect combination in<br />
WorldVentures/Rovia travel as a Leisure Travel Consultant.<br />
This new travel service strives to be the missing link between<br />
in-store travel agents and the Internet.<br />

Nowadays it seems everyone is trying to adjust their lifestyles<br />
to meet these current financial troubles. Vicky says, “We are<br />
all trying to find ways to make the most of our money. Many<br />
people are cutting back on the extras, and sometimes that<br />
means vacations. But isn’t that the one thing we all<br />
desperately need? Some time away on a tropical beach to<br />
forget about our worries if only for a few days.”<br />
Research shows the average family spends $3,400.00 on travel<br />
a year. Vicky asks, “Wouldn’t it be great if we could get not<br />
one but several luxury vacations for that amount? Imagine,<br />
getting to spend the same amount of money but traveling to<br />
beautiful, new and fascinating locations and making memories<br />
that will last forever!” We have all seen gorgeous places on<br />
TV and in the movies. Instead of just watching someone take<br />
exciting vacations on the movie screen, jet off for your own<br />
adventure of a lifetime!<br />
So how can you take advantage of all these great<br />
vacation getaways? Just go to Vicky Denny’s website at<br />

The first step is becoming a preferred member. It is quick,<br />

trip! And the monthly fee will be waived if you get 4 people<br />
to sign up for the program. Exclusive travel destinations all at<br />
your fingertips and waiting for you!<br />
So instead of going to Myrtle Beach next year, you could go to<br />
three fascinating and beautiful places you have never been and<br />
always longed to go! As Vicky says, “Everyone deserves to see<br />
the world at a price they can afford, without having to give up<br />
their kids’ college education!”<br />
So if you are looking for a 5-star vacation at a 1-star price, with<br />
the added bonus of a local, personalized touch, then you have<br />
arrived at your destination with Your Travel Dreams!

KEEPING KNITTERS IN<br />
Stitches<br />
By Linda Weber<br />
Only a fiber lover can truly<br />
understand when Sammie Jo<br />
Thomas, owner of Knit Picky,<br />
says, “We encourage petting.”<br />
Dyed-in-the-wool yarn-lovers<br />
are a tactile group: texture,<br />
color, and the feel of yarn are<br />
so important, deprivation can<br />
set in if we can’t—literally—get<br />
our hands on the stuff.<br />
A Knitter’s “Candy Store”<br />
Knit Picky, a cozy shop tucked into a<br />
1910 clapboard house off Stratford<br />
Road near Silas Creek Parkway,<br />
allows knitters, spinners, felt makers,<br />
weavers, and crocheters to touch and<br />
squeeze the merchandise to their<br />
heart’s content. The boutique also<br />
serves as a meeting place, where<br />
knitters and other crafters gather for inspiration from<br />
knitting books, patterns, knitted samples displayed throughout<br />
the store, and each other. The shop hosts weekly knitting<br />
groups, where people can knit together and share ideas, tips,<br />
and advice, as well as admire each other’s work. Thomas<br />
offers classes where knitters of every stripe can learn new<br />
stitches and techniques, or perfect the ones they haven’t quite<br />
mastered yet. The best way to describe Knit Picky? As the<br />
knitter’s equivalent to a candy store: each room is filled to the<br />
rafters with a kaleidoscopic array of yarn, roving, buttons,<br />
needles, and other materials.<br />
Last year, non-knitters came into Knit Picky, asking if they<br />
could purchase samples they saw displayed throughout the<br />
store. This <strong>October</strong>, November, and December, Thomas will<br />
have a boutique section in her shop featuring one-of-a-kind<br />
hand-knit and crocheted items for holiday gift-giving.<br />
Shoppers can choose from a variety of scarves, hats, fingerless<br />
gloves, and other knitwear and crocheted items.<br />
Knowledge and Experience Make a Difference<br />
The internet has lured some knitters to online stores, but no<br />
amount of surfing and blogging can replace a comfy, casual<br />
shop (where you can plop down on the sofa anytime and pull<br />
out your knitting) run by a warm, knowledgeable<br />
professional. Thomas’ bricks and mortar store allows you to<br />
see and touch your materials before purchasing them and<br />
may spare you the disappointment of opening a package, only<br />
to discover the yarn you ordered isn’t what you thought it<br />
was.<br />
At Knit Picky, help is readily available to guide you in making<br />
your selection. “When bamboo yarn was first introduced into<br />
the industry, we had trouble finding bamboo yarn that held its<br />
shape. Now we have a great bamboo yarn I can confidently<br />
recommend.” This is the kind of insight that doesn’t come<br />
40 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
with online purchases,<br />
and that helps knitters avoid<br />
costly, time-consuming mistakes.<br />
What could be better than a<br />
“club house” where you can<br />
interact with others who share<br />
your passion? Passion is a good<br />
word to describe what led Thomas, a<br />
former oncology nurse, to open Knit Picky four<br />
years ago. “We all know people who are<br />
counting the days until retirement when they<br />
can do the things they love,” says Thomas. “But<br />
when they’re faced with a difficult diagnosis, it<br />
can completely change their plans. It made me<br />
think about my own life and what I wanted,”<br />
she says.<br />
An inveterate knitter, Thomas had organized<br />
knitting groups of fellow caregivers at the<br />
hospital. “We joked that knitting was cheaper<br />
than therapy,” she recalls. She began to imagine an inviting<br />
shop where people could drop by on their lunch hour or after<br />
work to knit. When her husband said, “You’ll never know<br />
until you try,” she decided to take the plunge and do what she<br />
loves.<br />
Knit Nights, Yarn Camp, Classes – and More!<br />
She now presides over “open knit” nights at Knit Picky on<br />
Wednesdays, when customers, many in their twenties, come<br />
by after work to knit and socialize from 6 to 8. On Thursday<br />
mornings from 10 to 12 other knitters, many of them retired,<br />
come to knit, sip coffee, and chat. These gatherings are more<br />
social than educational, but Thomas also offers a wide variety<br />
of classes, from hand-dyeing and spinning to beginner<br />
knitting, as well as advanced classes for cable and lace<br />
knitting.<br />
Each summer the store offers several weeks of yarn camp, a<br />
five-day fiber fest for knitters ages 7 to 14, who learn to dye<br />
yarn, knit (or perfect their knitting skills) with their own<br />
hand-dyed yarn, and complete one or more projects, whether<br />
it’s a wrist cuff, a headband, or a shrug sweater. Thomas also<br />
offers a fun Kids’ Knit Night during the school year one<br />
Saturday per month from 5 to 7 p.m. She can accommodate<br />
eight kids per session, supplying them with a light dinner and<br />
teaching them a new stitch each month. The kids get to<br />
socialize with other knitters their age and parents can sign<br />
them up monthly, rather than commit to the entire season.<br />
One of the reasons Thomas opened her shop was to have a<br />
life in which she enjoyed the journey and not just the<br />
destination. Ironically, her store gives those of us who thrive<br />
on creating things with fiber a chance to enjoy both the<br />
journey—the actual knitting—and the destination—the<br />
finished garment. How lucky is that?

Samra Iara, Multicultural<br />
Dance Instructor<br />
42 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
‘You Should Be<br />
By Carolyn S. Peterson<br />
With obesity and the<br />
results of a sedentary<br />
life evident in<br />
America today, finding a way<br />
to get people of all ages moving<br />
has never been more important.<br />
Samra Iara, a multicultural<br />
dance instructor, knows the<br />
benefits that dance can provide<br />
to the body, mind and spirit,<br />
and shares her talent and<br />
knowledge to get students of<br />
any age up and moving.<br />
Dance - The Art That Can<br />
Help Everyone Live a<br />
Healthier Life<br />
Born and raised in Brazil,<br />
Samra Iara’s passion for the art<br />
of dance and how it can<br />
enhance one’s life began rather<br />
innocently. “I began dancing as a stress reliever. I was<br />
teaching high school during the day, then driving 180 miles<br />
round trip to VA Tech to earn my Master’s degree and after<br />
completing my homework, I found that I needed something<br />
to do to release my stress. I felt that belly dancing would be<br />
a great activity and I would often practice at 2 am, knowing<br />
that I had to get up to go to work 4 hours later, but I always<br />
felt refreshed after dancing,” recalled Iara. While dancing<br />
between classes and work, Iara finished her Master’s in<br />
Education and post-graduate studies in Psychology.<br />
Soon Iara’s passion led her to study with instructors who not<br />
only taught dances from across the world, but had also<br />
experienced the cultures that developed these beloved<br />
movements. “I began studying with masters in New York,<br />
Minneapolis, California and all over the country. I would<br />
attend seminars where masters from the Middle East, Turkey<br />
and the other countries would come and teach. Eventually I<br />
decided that I wanted to experience those cultures myself<br />
and started my international trips to study in Egypt, Turkey,<br />
Bali, Spain and other countries. Visiting and learning the<br />

culture that inspired a specific dance gives me a better<br />
understanding of the inspiration behind a dance, which in<br />
turn makes me a better instructor,” Iara stated.<br />
Over her many years as a student and instructor of<br />
multicultural dances, Iara has found the benefits of dance to<br />
be a great part of her study. “Through dance, one can<br />
achieve any type of workout, including cardio, flexibility and<br />
resistance, all depending on the type of dance. When done<br />
correctly and with natural movements, dance strengthens<br />
and tones the muscles, which relieves stress away from the<br />
joints. The end result is a healthier, more flexible body for a<br />
life time,” said Iara.<br />
In addition, Iara has seen her students gain self-esteem<br />
through dance. “Feeling good about one’s self and being<br />
motivated can help a person accomplish anything they want,<br />
including better health and a fitter body. The discipline of<br />
learning something new, like dance, challenges the brain and<br />
can help optimize brain function. I have found, on a<br />
personal level, that dance has been a path to physical,<br />
mental and emotional enrichment,” stated Iara.<br />
Dancing Across the World<br />
For over 20 years, Samra Iara has dedicated herself to the<br />
study of multicultural dances specializing in folkloric, pop,<br />
theatrical and fire dancing from across the globe. “I strive to<br />
present each dance in the appropriate cultural context, not<br />
only studying the physical movements, but also the historical<br />
and expressive mode of each dance.”<br />
Beyond her dance, Iara has learned the art of Shadow<br />
Puppetry, a medium Iara discovered in Bali. This art is used<br />
to relay a story or a historical period using puppets created<br />
by the puppeteer. “I have found that children and teens<br />
really enjoy this medium. Since the entire action happens<br />
behind the screen, hence the ‘shadow’ part, even people who<br />
don’t like to act can really express themselves and enjoy their<br />
creative side. I have worked with many afterschool<br />
programs, summer camps and enrichment programs, each<br />
time sharing the passion for the art of puppetry. Shadow<br />
Puppetry can have a secular, educational and religious<br />
theme; it is becoming popular in western countries as the art<br />
form spreads,” Iara commented.<br />
With her Winston-Salem based dance studio, Iara hopes to<br />
continue to offer her talents as an instructor to individuals<br />
and groups. “Dancing is not only fun, but it is a therapeutic<br />
experience, and my demonstrations hopefully brighten my<br />
audiences’ days. As I continue to expand my base of<br />
students by teaching and performing in around the world I<br />
also hope to teach not only the dances from other countries,<br />
but share an understanding and an appreciation of cultures<br />
other than our own,” said Iara. “One of my dreams is to<br />
have a day of dance when everyone will gather at a public<br />
venue and celebrate life by dancing together.”<br />

Blue Smoke - The Barbecue Truth<br />
1527 Martin Luther King Blvd., Winston-Salem, NC 27107 • 336.784.4674<br />
Mon-Sat 11am-8pm • Prices ≈ $5-10<br />
F<br />
all is upon us,<br />
football season has<br />
begun, and it goes<br />
without saying that<br />
here in North<br />
Carolina we love our barbecue.<br />
What food could be better for<br />
football tailgating parties or a gettogether<br />
in the cool weather with<br />
friends? Recently, there have been<br />
a number of new barbecue places<br />
that have brought barbecue styles<br />
and hybrids from different parts of<br />
the country. Some of the places are<br />
doing well, others have failed. This<br />
month brings us a new addition<br />
that is more of what we are all<br />
accustomed to… Carolina-style<br />
BBQ.<br />
Easily accessible from downtown<br />
and right across the street from<br />
Bowman Gray Stadium, Blue<br />
Smoke sits in a great location. Just<br />
about anyone in the Winston-<br />
Salem area can be there in a few<br />
minutes.<br />
Not only is it centrally located, but<br />
they serve great food to inspire us<br />
to travel there. They offer the<br />
traditional chopped and cut pork<br />
BBQ plates, as well as BBQ beef<br />
and chicken. My husband ordered<br />
the “Big Appetites” plate, which<br />
offers a choice of 3 meats and 2<br />
sides. For his choices, he selected<br />
the chopped pork, beef brisket,<br />
and “Poor Man’s” Ribs (these are<br />
cut and skewered pork pieces<br />
grilled with their own rib glaze).<br />
He absolutely loved the “Poor<br />
Man’s” Ribs; they were tender,<br />
sweet, and succulent. The pork<br />
and beef barbecue were both tasty<br />
as well, also tender, only with a<br />
little more vinegar “twang.” He<br />
just could not get over why he<br />
never had heard of the ribs that<br />
way before. I chose one of the<br />
sandwiches. My husband will<br />
attest to the fact that I am a<br />
HUGE fan of a good Philly cheese<br />
steak sandwich. Blue Smoke offers<br />
something truly great for any of<br />
you who also are like me in this<br />
love; it is called the Bullwinkle.<br />
This is a sandwich made with<br />
grilled chicken and beef piled into<br />
a French roll, with onions,<br />
peppers, provolone cheese, and<br />
garlic mayo. Not only was the<br />
Bullwinkle delicious, but it was<br />
enormous as well, leaving me with<br />
some for lunch the next day. The<br />
menu also includes more favorites<br />
like burgers, salads, and banana<br />
pudding (something that any<br />
barbecue joint in this region<br />
needs).<br />
For all of the race fans, football<br />
fans, and students out there, Blue<br />
Smoke offers options for you as<br />
well. Students and race fans alike<br />
can get a 10% discount with their<br />
student IDs and race day ticket<br />
stubs, respectively (this will have<br />
to wait until next year when<br />
racing begins again). Additionally,<br />
Blue Smoke has tailgating<br />
packages available for you to<br />
enjoy at your pregame party.<br />
In my family, I know that many<br />
members cringe at the thought of a<br />
new barbecue restaurant, because<br />
everyone has their “old standby.”<br />
Some of the newer places,<br />
however, have gotten them out of<br />
their shells to try new places. Blue<br />
Smoke, I believe, will join the likes<br />
of these. They are still in their<br />
infancy, having just opened in July,<br />
but they seem to have all of the<br />
right ingredients for success…<br />
good location, friendly service, and<br />
great food. Make sure when you<br />
stop by to try the BBQ or a<br />
sandwich that you tell ’em that<br />
Rosey sent you!

Medicine<br />
Piedmont Medical Research (PMR), a member of PMG<br />
Research, Inc., has been conducting clinical trials for<br />
pharmaceutical, medical device and biotechnology<br />
companies since 1979. One of PMR’s goals is to create<br />
positive clinical research experiences for its participants.<br />
Participating in a clinical trial is an important and very<br />
personal decision. There is no doubt that participation in a<br />
clinical trial is a priceless gift that will make an impact on<br />
future medicines, whether that medicine becomes FDA<br />
approved or not. If a study medication becomes FDA<br />
approved, the results are obvious… millions of people,<br />
whether it is family, friends and loved ones or a complete<br />
stranger on the other side of the country or the world, will<br />
benefit from your participation. If a study medication does<br />
not get FDA approved, this means that the result of each<br />
person’s participation clarifies the need for modifications to<br />
the plan for that drug’s continued development. It could also<br />
mean that the drug is beneficial for other reasons and needs to<br />
be further researched. Your involvement greatly assists the<br />
medical research industry in this process so they can continue<br />
to develop medicines that will benefit current and future<br />
generations. Regardless of the outcome of a particular study<br />
medication, your active participation helps millions. The more<br />
you know about PMR and the benefits of participating in<br />
clinical trials, the more confident you'll be with your choice.<br />
PMR has been affiliated with CISCRP (Center for<br />
Information and Study on Clinical Research Participation) for<br />
7 years, CenterWatch for 10+ years, the Hispanic League for<br />
2 years, and most recently the Winston-Salem Chamber of<br />
Commerce. Our involvement with these organizations enables<br />
us to stay current with “what you, the customer, wants.”<br />
Throughout the years, we have been an integral part of<br />
community involvement. We have worked with the Winston-<br />
Salem Rescue Mission, Crisis Control, the Forsyth Humane<br />
Society, the Army Blood Drives, and are often involved in<br />
local walks for a variety of charities.<br />
Please feel free to utilize the PMG website at www.pmgresearch.com/piedmont<br />
to search for our continuously<br />
updated list of enrolling trials. You may also use the Contact<br />
Us form to let us know of any trials you would like to<br />
participate in or see on the list. Your feedback is incredibly<br />
important to us and we strive to accommodate your needs.<br />
We look forward to guiding you through the clinical research<br />
process. For more information about how you can participate<br />
in a trial and be a Medical Hero, please contact a highly<br />

Apex Video Productions<br />
draws attention<br />
to your website<br />
By Mark Mathosian<br />
If you<br />
have a website and use it to<br />
attract customers then consider<br />
posting a web video. The old saying, “A picture is<br />
worth a thousand words,” rings true today. With<br />
more people shopping on-line for all types of<br />
products and services, a web video is quickly<br />
becoming a must-have for all types of businesses.<br />
This is where Apex Video Productions comes in.<br />
Apex Video Productions is owned and operated by<br />
the husband and wife duo of Christopher Brown<br />
and Sarah Holmes from Advance, Davie County.<br />
Christopher has over 16 years of video production experience<br />
including two Olympics, documentaries recorded in the<br />
Galapagos Islands, Mali, Africa and Papua New Guinea, and<br />
numerous shows on networks such as Discovery and National<br />
Geographic. Sarah brings her expert people skills to the<br />
projects and together they develop tightly focused two minute<br />
video productions about you and your business that draw<br />
attention to your website. Why the focus on a two minute<br />
video?<br />
According to Christopher, “When someone clicks on your<br />
website from a search engine such as Google, you have about 8<br />
seconds to grab their attention before they go onto the next<br />
website. There is nothing better to quickly and creatively get<br />
your message to your consumers than through a web video.<br />
Once you have their attention, they are 70% more likely to<br />
explore the rest of your website. Web videos also help you<br />
build a relationship with your customers that is nearly<br />
impossible to do with just text and graphics. It is this<br />
relationship with your customers that will keep them coming<br />
back.<br />
Christopher says their main goal is to create beautiful videos<br />
that are affordable. The footage is shot in high definition so<br />
that you can use the videos outside of your website such as in a<br />
DVD, on YouTube and Facebook, or at a trade show or other<br />
large gathering. The client owns the full rights to all of the<br />
video that is shot for their project so they may reuse the content<br />
down the road for any type of video project.<br />
Your web video is shot on location at your business or an<br />
appropriate location. Christopher says it takes on average<br />
about six hours to shoot a 2 minute video. They can do<br />
scripted videos, but prefer to have their clients talk in a<br />
conversational style about their business, product or<br />
organization, which they believe is more convincing in a web<br />
video. Another great service provided by Christopher and<br />
Sarah is that they work directly with your webmaster to be sure<br />
that they have everything they need to post your video on your<br />
website. Apex Video Productions can also create educational,<br />
instructional and personal history videos.<br />

ACTION!<br />
The bottom line is that if you need a reasonably priced<br />
professional video for your website, you should contact<br />
Christopher or Sarah at Apex Video Productions, 336-403-<br />
9273. Be sure to visit their website for more information and<br />
to view some of their video projects:<br />

Finally, here are some tips and observations from Christopher<br />
and Sarah that will help you focus the content for your web<br />
video:<br />
Five Ways to Use Video on Your Website<br />
Introduce yourself and your company: Potential customers<br />
search the web to find out about what you have to offer. A<br />
video can give them a great sense of who you are and what<br />
your company has to offer. It can help establish a relationship<br />
that is often necessary for those who are offering a service such<br />
as doctors, dentists, insurance and real estate professionals.<br />
Offer Customer Testimonials: There is nothing better than<br />
getting a glowing recommendation from a customer.<br />
Testimonial videos from your satisfied customers play an<br />
important role when someone is deciding if they want to give<br />
you their business.<br />
Showcase your products in action: You can create product<br />
demonstrations or instructional videos to show consumers how<br />
to use the products you sell. It provides them an opportunity to<br />
see how your products work and understand their functions.<br />
This really helps your customer to gain confidence in you and<br />
in your company.<br />
Turbo-charge your marketing with video sharing websites: By<br />
placing your videos on YouTube, Facebook and other video<br />
sharing websites, you can drive web users to your website,<br />
which will help your page ranking and ultimately your sales.<br />
Offer free information: Websites that offer useful information<br />
are more likely to build loyalty in their customers. How-to and<br />
informative videos are a great way to provide meaningful<br />
content to your consumers that keeps them coming back to you<br />
over and over again.

Hauser Rental<br />
For Everything You Don’t Have, Right When You Need It<br />
By Meghan E.W. Corbett<br />
When a business has been<br />
around for more than half<br />
a century, it is clear those in<br />
charge must be doing something right.<br />
When the business prides itself in<br />
being family owned, it is<br />
heartwarming. Though almost<br />
anyone asked in the Triad is familiar<br />
with the name Hauser Rental, the<br />
story behind the success is somewhat<br />
less commonly known.<br />
Originally opened by the Hauser<br />
family in the mid-1900s, it was<br />
apparent that the family tradition was one of importance. In<br />
2004, the son of the original Mr. Hauser, Denson Hauser, Jr.,<br />
passed away, and the family had to figure out who was strong<br />
enough to take over the company and all it believes in. They<br />
looked no further than Dennis Stewart, an employee with the<br />
company for nearly thirty years, and the closest to family one<br />
could hope to find. Stewart, now the president of Hauser<br />
Rental, knows the company inside and out and has continued<br />
the tradition of excellence the business was founded on. “The<br />
company has been around forever and a day,” said Stewart.<br />
“We are very experienced with what we do.”<br />
Most people think of Hauser Rental as a place to rent supplies<br />
for lavish parties, such as wedding receptions and reunions, but<br />
it takes a lot more than that to enjoy more than fifty years of<br />
success. Hauser Rental has supplied all the necessary materials<br />
for Wake Forest athletic events, private functions at the<br />
Graylyn Estate and Reynolda House, annual events such as the<br />
recent Winston-Salem Air Show and even presidential debates.<br />
“We do a pretty broad business,” said Stewart. “Primarily, it’s<br />
just been having what the customer wants, when he wants it,<br />
at a fair price.” One of the most important things any<br />
company can do to be successful is to remain relevant and<br />
competitive. Customer service is Hauser Rental’s focus, and if<br />
that means switching out inventory, researching trends and<br />
cutting costs for the customer, the people behind this company<br />
are more than prepared to oblige. “We were primarily tool<br />
and event rental, but in the 80s, we added a lot more party<br />
inventory,” said Stewart. “Trends change constantly.”<br />
A trend being felt by the consumer in today’s economy is the<br />
need to save money. Hauser Rental makes a huge effort to<br />
ensure customers can still have the luxurious feel they crave<br />
without stressing about the expense. “We try to keep our<br />
prices competitive,” said Stewart. “We offer the same product<br />
for fair prices.”<br />
48 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
No matter how large or small the event, if Stewart has the style<br />
a customer is looking for, he can handle the amount. “What<br />
we do have, we have in large quantities,” he said. Perhaps the<br />
“can do” attitude is what led Hauser Rental to become the goto<br />
company for secret service-involved events in the area. “We<br />
work with the secret service for any events here because we are<br />
certified,” noted Stewart. Companies must be approved by<br />
security and undergo background checks before being allowed<br />
to assist with the behind the scenes work in dealing with such<br />
high-profile customers. It is evident from anyone who has ever<br />
dealt with Hauser Rental that it is truly a business of<br />
professionals who know exactly how to satisfy even the<br />
pickiest of customers, with some of the most demanding<br />
requests.<br />
Whether customers are in need of a sign for the front yard<br />
announcing a new addition to the family, a couple of fountains<br />
for a peaceful afternoon tea with a book club, or hundreds of<br />
tables and chairs under a white tent, complete with linens,<br />
silver and chandeliers, Hauser Rental is the place to go. It is a<br />
business built on family values that puts service first and is<br />
backed up by more than fifty years of success!

Patients with Complex Medical Needs Benefit from Home Care<br />
For all of her life, Lynn<br />
Wilson, 43, has<br />
struggled with spina<br />
bifida, a birth defect in which<br />
the backbone and spinal<br />
canal do not close before<br />
birth. As a result, she is<br />
paralyzed from the waist<br />
down, and has experienced<br />
problems with her kidneys<br />
and bowels. In 2003, her<br />
lungs were no longer able to<br />
work properly, causing<br />
respiratory failure and<br />
forcing her to go on a<br />
ventilator and have a<br />
tracheostomy tube inserted.<br />
As her medical needs became<br />
more complex, Lynn feared<br />
she would have to be moved<br />
from the home she loved into<br />
a long-term care facility.<br />
Fortunately, the hospital<br />
recommended home care,<br />
and Wilson chose Bayada<br />
Nurses. Now, thanks to the<br />
help of her parents and<br />
skilled nursing care from<br />
Bayada, she can stay at<br />
home, surrounded by her<br />
beloved birds, a green<br />
Quaker parrot named Casey,<br />
and a bright yellow cockatiel<br />
named Sam.<br />
“I just couldn’t imagine<br />
having to leave Casey and<br />
Sam,” says Wilson, whose<br />
home has 100 feet of oxygen<br />
tubing. “At Bayada Nurses,<br />
they understand how<br />
important it is for a patient<br />
to be surrounded by family<br />
and pets, and things that are<br />
50 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
familiar. It really helps them<br />
to cope with their illness.”<br />
Indeed, Bayada Nurses has<br />
been helping people live<br />
safely at home for 35 years.<br />
The company, which started<br />
with one office in<br />
Philadelphia, now has over<br />
170 offices in 18 states,<br />
including more than 35<br />
offices in North Carolina.<br />
“Our nurses receive<br />
comprehensive training to<br />
prepare them to care for<br />
medically complex patients<br />
like Lynn,” explains Sarah<br />
DiGloria, director of Bayada<br />
Nurses Winston-Salem adult<br />
care office. “In addition, our<br />
nurses are fully insured, and<br />
our stringent hiring standards<br />
include a thorough<br />
background check and skills<br />
assessment to ensure every<br />
nurse can meet the unique<br />
healthcare needs of each<br />
individual patient.”<br />
According to DiGloria, prior<br />
to being admitted for home<br />
care, each patient receives a<br />
comprehensive assessment by<br />
a registered nurse. Working<br />
in tandem with the patient’s<br />
physician and the family, the<br />
nurses develop an<br />
individualized plan of care.<br />
“Some patients may need<br />
only a few hours of nursing a<br />
day, while others may require<br />
around the clock care,” says<br />
DiGloria. “For example, in<br />
Lynn’s case, she lives alone,<br />
but her parents<br />
are close by and<br />
are able to come<br />
every day and<br />
help. When her<br />
parents are not<br />
there, our nurses<br />
cover the 7:00 am<br />
to 3:00 pm shift,<br />
and the overnight<br />
hours from 11:00<br />
pm to 7:00 am.”<br />
���������������������������������<br />
���������������������������������������<br />
�����������������������������<br />
����������<br />
Bayada Nurses<br />
also provides a<br />
registered nurse<br />
clinical manager<br />
who visits each<br />
patient on a<br />
monthly basis and oversees<br />
all aspects of a patient’s care.<br />
What’s more, registered nurse<br />
on-call managers ensure that<br />
clinical support is available,<br />
24 hours a day.<br />
In addition to nursing care,<br />
some patients benefit from<br />
personal care provided by<br />
certified nursing assistants<br />
(CNAs). “CNAs provide<br />
assistance with bathing,<br />
grooming, meal preparation<br />
and light housekeeping,” says<br />
DiGloria. “They also<br />
provide companionship, and<br />
accompany patients to<br />
doctor’s appointments and<br />
social outings.”<br />
According to DiGloria, many<br />
people who are eligible for<br />
home care are unaware of the<br />
numerous payment options<br />
available to them. “We<br />
accept most insurance,<br />
������������ ����������������<br />

cockatiel, Sam.<br />

private pay and Medicaid,”<br />
explains DiGloria. “In<br />
addition, we have an office<br />
that is dedicated to working<br />
with insurance companies.<br />
They will work to find out<br />
the amount and type of<br />
coverage each patient has, as<br />
well as take the burden of<br />
handling complicated<br />
paperwork off the hands of<br />
worried patients and their<br />
family members.”<br />
Bayada Nurses is state<br />
licensed and accredited by the<br />
Community Health<br />
Accreditation Program, a<br />
leader in home care<br />
accreditation. For more<br />

Ms. Molly Foundation:<br />
Fighting Domestic Violence<br />
By Emily Eileen Carter<br />
For many women, their home is their prison. They are too<br />
afraid to report the physical, emotional, and often life<br />
threatening abuse that they experience on a daily basis.<br />
About sixty percent of men who batter their wives or partners<br />
also abuse their children. Molly Maid feels that all women<br />
and children have the right to feel safe in their own homes.<br />
That is why every <strong>October</strong>, during National Domestic<br />
Violence Month, Molly Maid works in a unified effort with<br />
the Ms. Molly Foundation to fight the horrific crimes of<br />
domestic violence that occur everywhere.<br />
The local Molly Maid, owned by Stanley and Melissa<br />
Robinson, is in its 4th year of working with the Ms. Molly<br />
Foundation to bring attention and increased awareness about<br />
domestic violence. During this month, Molly Maid franchise<br />
owners work together with the community, their employees,<br />
and customers, and raise funds to provide refuge and relief for<br />
victims of domestic violence.<br />
Since its inception in 1996, the Ms. Molly Foundation has<br />
worked diligently to give hope and support to local<br />

communities by supporting education and fundraising events<br />
for safe houses and shelters that care for victims of domestic<br />
violence. Working together, customers, cleaning franchise<br />
owners, and housekeeping personnel are fighting domestic<br />
violence all over the country by participating in fundraising<br />
and education events.<br />
In the past, the Molly Maid locally owned by the Robinsons<br />
has supported area domestic violence shelters by collecting<br />
monetary donations, as well as supplies. They have donated<br />
over $1,600 in monetary donations and three truckloads of<br />
items to these shelters. “We could not give as much to local<br />
shelters without our customers’ support. They have been very<br />
generous and gracious to this cause. We’ve had individual<br />
customers donate as much as $500,” noted Karen Hurd,<br />
office manager for Molly Maid.<br />
Since Molly Maid employs women, helping women is a<br />
passion for the Robinsons. "We care about our ladies that<br />
work for us and we really wanted to partner with a group that<br />
feels the way we do. The work is invaluable to our<br />
community. Making a difference is what it is all about,"<br />
explained Hurd.<br />
For Molly Maid, the Robinsons, and Karen Hurd, reaching<br />
out to women during an isolating and confusing time means<br />
making a difference, one family at a time. Molly Maid makes<br />
the difference daily, through their employees and the shelters<br />
that they support.<br />
If you are interested in making a donation to fight domestic<br />
violence locally, you may contact the Winston-Salem Molly<br />
Maid at 336-760-0076.

Sarah Piekielny has been working as a<br />
Clinical Research Coordinator since 2006. She<br />
first started with one of PMG Research’s sites<br />
in Charlotte, NC, Metrolina Medical Research<br />
(MMR). In 2008, she transferred to Piedmont<br />
Medical Research (PMR) in Winston-Salem,<br />
NC. When asked about why she enjoys being<br />
a Clinical Research Coordinator, Sarah said, “It<br />
is very rewarding knowing that you are helping<br />
medications get approved to help other people<br />
in the future. I really enjoy working with study<br />
participants on clinical trials, especially when they end up benefitting<br />
from the study medication. To me the term ‘Medical Hero’ is so true<br />
Jenny Braswell has been elected to the<br />
position of President of the Rotary Club of<br />
Clemmons, NC.<br />
She became a Rotarian in 1994, and is a<br />
retired Public Health Director with over 30<br />
years of state and local public health<br />
experience. Jenny is married to Dr. Sherrill<br />
Braswell, who practices Family Medicine in<br />
Winston Salem. Her goals for the Rotary Club<br />

As a college student<br />
25 years ago, Freda<br />
Springs watched<br />
breast cancer claim the<br />
life of her mother.<br />
Today, Springs – who<br />
works as the<br />
media/public relations<br />
manager for Forsyth<br />
Medical Center and just<br />
sent her own daughter<br />
to college – is facing<br />
her own cancer battle.<br />
But despite the<br />
diagnosis of stage 4<br />
metastatic breast<br />
cancer, Springs is<br />
quick to point out that<br />
she isn’t dying from<br />
the disease – she’s<br />
thriving, despite its<br />
presence.<br />
“Breast cancer is real, and it can be<br />
scary, but it doesn’t have to be a death sentence,” Springs says. “With<br />
the help of new technology and treatments, faith, family, friends and an<br />
incredible care team, I’m living with breast cancer as a chronic illness.<br />
I’ve had surgery, radiation and other treatments, but I still work. I still<br />
write. I still travel. Cancer is part of my life, but it’s not my whole life.”<br />
because without study participants we would not have medications that<br />
we have today that help so many other people. I think that is why a lot<br />
people participate, because they want to make a difference and help<br />
other’s down the road.” At PMR, Sarah has been performing high<br />
blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol and gastroenterology clinical<br />
trials. As of September <strong>2010</strong>, she will be overseeing PMR’s clinical<br />
trials at Triad Neurological Associates, located on Kimel Park in<br />
Winston-Salem, to help PMR focus on neurology trials. She is looking<br />
forward to working with the team of physicians in this office and to<br />
increase awareness of study participation in this area. If you or<br />
someone you know suffers from a neurological condition, please do<br />
not hesitate to contact Sarah to see if there is clinical trial available for a<br />
potential treatment option.<br />
of Clemmons for the coming year are to “make a difference, involve<br />
more volunteers, and do the things that matter to the community.” She<br />
wants to increase the participation of the Rotary Club of Clemmons in<br />
the many local activities the club supports - including the Flight of<br />
Honor, the “You Can Save Lives” Organ Donor Program, Send-a-Kid to<br />
Camp Hanes, Make-a-Wish Foundation, Food Pantry, Hand-in-Hand,<br />
Senior Citizen support, Boy Scouts, and many others.<br />

Her newfound passion, though, is encouraging breast cancer<br />
prevention and early detection. That’s because despite regular<br />
mammograms and doctor’s visits, Springs discovered her cancer<br />
through a monthly self breast exam.<br />
“Every month, you’ve got to check your ‘girls’ – have your husband<br />
check them, too – it’ll be a bonding experience for you,” quips Springs,<br />
who is staying true to herself and her remarkable sense of humor. As a<br />
testament to that comedic gene, Springs agreed to share the poem she<br />
recited for her husband and medical team just minutes before her<br />
double mastectomy:<br />
Ode to the ‘Girls’<br />
You’ve served me well over the years,<br />
But now it’s time to go.<br />
You’re being replaced with a new set:<br />
Smaller,<br />
Tighter,<br />
Higher.<br />
What a send-off – no mercy there! It reminds me of a t-shirt I once<br />
saw on a breast cancer survivor. It said, “Yes, they’re fake – my real<br />
ones tried to kill me!” For Freda Springs, it’s this kind of humor that<br />
helps her live and thrive, even while having breast cancer.<br />
Congratulations, Freda, on being Forsyth Woman<br />
magazine’s first “Survivor on the Move!”

Women Business Owners<br />
Should Think About the Future<br />
An economic downturn, such as that of the past few<br />
years, is no longer felt by a primarily male workforce.<br />
The number of women affected by the economy—<br />
particularly women owning small businesses—is on the rise. It<br />
is time for women business owners to pause and become<br />
better prepared for what may lie ahead, no matter what<br />
happens with the economy.<br />
Often, when starting out, business owners cling very closely to<br />
their businesses with no plan of succession or even<br />
knowledgeable employees who can take over at as moment’s<br />
notice if something happens to the business owner. Although<br />
holding on tightly to a small business is<br />
understandable, it’s not always the best<br />
strategy for the long term.<br />
Every business owner needs a plan of<br />
succession, starting with having someone,<br />
whether an in-house employee or outside<br />
advisor, who is knowledgeable enough<br />
about the business to keep it going in case<br />
the business owner becomes ill or dies.<br />
Ideally, a business owner should groom<br />
someone in-house to take over, but that’s<br />
not always possible. In that case, business<br />
owners should seek the counsel of outside<br />
advisors, including accountants and lawyers,<br />
who can serve as invaluable interim advisors<br />
to family members or others who may be<br />
trying to run the small business during a<br />
crisis period.<br />
Succession planning is also important when a business is<br />
owned by multiple people. Often in such companies<br />
responsibilities are allocated among several co-owners. A coowner<br />
may not be able to take over the job responsibilities of<br />
another co-owner in the event of illness or death either<br />
because the quantity of work is too great or because the skill<br />
sets of the co-owners, while complimentary, do not overlap.<br />
For example, consider a business that has a salesperson and<br />
financial person. Each is crucial to the success of the business,<br />
but it is often the case that these skills are not transferable<br />
from one person to the next.<br />
In addition to having a person who can fill in for a business<br />
owner, it’s crucial to have a source of cash to keep the<br />
business going in the short term in the event of an owner’s<br />
illness or death. Many businesses, particularly businesses such<br />
as marketing firms, decorating businesses or even medical<br />
practices, are built on personal relationships. If the sole owner<br />
or a co-owner becomes incapacitated for a time or dies, the<br />
personal relationships that often have been built over a long<br />
period are gone as well. Cash reserves will be needed until<br />
new relationships are established by the successors of the<br />
deceased. Cash may also be needed to pay debts during an<br />
interim period and to pay the salary of a person who might<br />
58 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
need to be hired to replace the deceased owner. If the business<br />
lacks sufficient cash reserves, the owner should consider<br />
purchasing a life insurance policy large enough to keep the<br />
business afloat for weeks or even months in the event of his or<br />
her death. In addition, such life insurance proceeds may be<br />
needed to allow co-owners to purchase the interest of the<br />
deceased owner and to provide liquidity for the family of the<br />
deceased owner.<br />
Business owners tend to assume that the assets of the business<br />
will easily transfer to a spouse or child at death, an<br />
assumption that is not necessarily true. Business owners need<br />
to execute wills specifying to whom their<br />
property, including their business interests,<br />
will go at death. In addition, businesses<br />
with multiple owners need a buy-sell<br />
agreement or shareholders’ agreement to<br />
address what will happen in the event of<br />
death or disability. This agreement can<br />
have a mandatory buyout or optional<br />
buyout of a deceased owner.<br />
Business owners also need to realize that<br />
keeping a business going after their death is<br />
not always possible. The business may have<br />
its highest value at the death of the owner<br />
and a sale of the business may be the best<br />
course of action for the business owner’s<br />
heirs.<br />
A good plan of succession goes a long way<br />
toward alleviating worries about what may<br />
happen in the event of illness or death. Every plan of<br />
succession should contain the following basic elements:<br />
• Operations plan on how to keep the business running.<br />
• Identification of a potential successor to operate the<br />
business.<br />
• Analysis of cash needs.<br />
• Analysis of life insurance needs.<br />
• A will to dispose of the ownership interest, as well as other<br />
assets.<br />
• If more than one owner, a shareholders’ agreement to<br />
address death, disability, or other termination of<br />
employment.<br />
It’s sometimes hard to accept that tragedy and even death<br />
could be in your future. Don’t wait until it’s too late and your<br />
family is left trying to figure out the pieces of your business<br />
puzzle. My best advice is to seek counsel from a trusted<br />
advisor about succession planning for your small business, and<br />
you’ll be better prepared for whatever lies ahead.<br />

Women: The Beauty of Friendships<br />
By Wendee Goodman<br />
Girlfriend Adventures<br />
Friendships, women and teachers - what type of activities<br />
come to mind? Shopping, scrapbooking, dinners, GNO<br />
(Girls’ Night Out – yeah!), Zumba classes, skydiving…<br />
SKYDIVING?<br />
Deb Gustafson is a teacher, a<br />
friend, a wife, a mother, a<br />
grandmother, a woman of faith<br />
and prayer. This year she was<br />
asked if she would like to join a<br />
group of women who were going<br />
skydiving and she answered<br />
“YES!”<br />
Forsyth Woman: Where did the<br />
idea of skydiving come from?<br />
Deb Gustafson: For years I have<br />
wanted to go skydiving and when<br />
a coworker invited me, I told her,<br />
“yes.”<br />
FW: Were you a little scared?<br />
DG: Actually, I really wasn’t – I<br />
thought I would be, but I was fairly<br />
calm.<br />
FW: How did you feel in the plane?<br />
DG: My instructor was funny and<br />
made me laugh so I know that<br />
helped. I asked him if there was<br />
something wrong with me and he said,” yes!” My friend,<br />
another teacher, was terrified on the plane and they had to pry<br />
her hands off the bar, but I did not feel that way at all. I have<br />
no idea why.<br />
FW: How did you feel afterwards?<br />
DG: It was a calm, serene feeling. When we jumped, it was<br />
an adrenaline rush and then when the parachute deploys it is<br />
scary, but as you descend it is so peaceful – a spiritual<br />
experience in essence. I felt very close to God as I floated<br />
down through the clouds!<br />
FW: Now that you have accomplished this, what difference<br />
has it made?<br />
DG: It really gave me a sense of contentment and<br />
completeness of actually doing something that I have always<br />
wanted to do. I find as I get older that I want to do things<br />
and quit thinking about them and talking about doing them<br />
“some day” – that some<br />
day is now!<br />
FW: What other<br />
adventures have you had<br />
with girlfriends?<br />
DG: Three years ago I<br />
went to South Africa with<br />
Carrie Chapple and Cindy<br />
Orsillo and that was quite<br />
an adventure. Currently,<br />
my daughter and I are<br />
training to do a half<br />
marathon. I am not an<br />
athlete so running is<br />
definitely a new adventure<br />
for me.<br />
Deb told me that her ideal<br />
next adventure would be<br />
something like a camping,<br />
hiking or kayaking trip<br />
with a group of women<br />
she does not know. She<br />
said she loves the<br />
outdoors and loves<br />
meeting new people. There is an organization that offers trips<br />
for women over 50 and she’s giving consideration to that. She<br />
said she loved the sense of safety, and she especially loved<br />
sharing adventures, with other women, noting that it is a<br />
“kindred spirit” thing. She did mention she loves spending<br />
time with her husband and five older brothers, but there is<br />
nothing like a strong relationship with a girlfriend! In the past<br />
few years, some of Deb’s closest friends have moved and she<br />
said she has a real strong interest in making new friends who<br />
share her love for the outdoors and adventure.<br />
Most recently, she’s noticed a growing blessing in her<br />
relationship with her daughter. Her daughter is grown and<br />
has a child of her own and she’s noticed that her daughter is<br />
becoming one of her best friends and she said, “It is<br />
wonderful!”<br />
I believe we go through seasons in life and God puts<br />
certain women together for a reason. -Deb

Walking Towards a Cure<br />
Forsyth Woman was introduced<br />
to an incredible family this past<br />
summer and we were honored<br />
to become a part of their cause.<br />
Kristie Angel formed Ethan’s Angels<br />
after her son, Ethan, was diagnosed<br />
with Juvenile Diabetes (also known as<br />
Type I diabetes), when he was only<br />
two. It is estimated that one in every<br />
600 children in the US will develop<br />
what is now the 2nd most chronic<br />
disease for children. Children with<br />
Type I diabetes appear healthy on the<br />
surface; however, in the last year,<br />
Ethan has endured 4,380 finger sticks<br />
to check his blood sugar, a necessary<br />
measure in an attempt to keep his<br />
By Jennifer F. Boyle<br />
body functioning as it naturally<br />
should. Those who live with Type I<br />
diabetes know that every day is a fight<br />
for life and every day is an<br />
opportunity to display hope—hope<br />
that a cure will be found. We at<br />
Forsyth Woman and Ethan’s Angels<br />
would like to invite you to join the<br />
fight by participating in the annual<br />
JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes. The<br />
walk will take place on Saturday,<br />
<strong>October</strong> 23rd at Wake Forest<br />
University. You are invited to join<br />
Ethan’s Angels, donate, or gather<br />

Dine<br />
for a<br />
Cause<br />
By Linda Weber<br />
One of the signs that fall<br />
has arrived is a yellow<br />
apron sighting.<br />
Volunteer members of the<br />
Knights of Columbus wear<br />
the aprons as part of a<br />
fundraising effort for the<br />
Least Among My Brethren<br />
(LAMB) Foundation. They<br />
offer free Tootsie Rolls to<br />
passersby in front of grocery<br />
chains and shopping centers,<br />
soliciting donations for<br />
individuals with intellectual<br />
disabilities in North<br />
Carolina.<br />
The LAMB Foundation, a<br />
501(c)(3) nonprofit, was<br />
started over 30 years ago by<br />
local resident Bob Smith. To<br />
date, the charity has raised<br />
over $18.3 million for the<br />
intellectually handicapped,<br />
thanks the Knights of<br />
Columbus, who, as unpaid<br />
volunteers, canvass for<br />
64 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
donations that help support<br />
organizations such as the<br />
Special Olympics and the<br />
Special Children's School.<br />
Until recently, LAMB raised<br />
roughly $40,000 a year in<br />
charitable contributions. But<br />
recent changes in stores'<br />
policies (some stores now<br />
permit solicitations only by<br />
national organizations),<br />
combined with the current<br />
economic downturn, have<br />
had an impact on the<br />
foundation's fundraising.<br />
To make up for a shortfall,<br />
last year organizers launched<br />
a second fundraising event,<br />
the Annual LAMB Charity<br />
Dinner and Auction. "Our<br />
first dinner was a<br />
phenomenal success," says<br />
LAMB Director Brian<br />
Sternecker. "Despite the fact<br />
that we didn't have an<br />
advertising budget and were<br />
only able to publicize it by<br />
word of mouth, we sold 120<br />
tickets and raised $7,000."<br />
Last year, corporations and<br />
stores donated a week's<br />
vacation in Myrtle Beach,<br />
large-screen TVs, and a<br />
private cooking lesson from<br />
a local chef. Individuals<br />
donated heirlooms and<br />
collectors' items that were<br />
bid on by attendees at a<br />
silent auction. For this year's<br />
event, the Knights are again<br />
asking for donations such as<br />
antiques, art, collectibles,<br />
china, crystal, jewelry, silver,<br />
and other items from<br />
members of the community.<br />
They will also solicit items<br />
from local businesses. At the<br />
dinner the group will honor<br />
Winston-Salem Police Chief<br />
Scott Cunningham in<br />
appreciation of the police<br />
department's contributions<br />
to individuals with special<br />
needs. The department's<br />
annual fundraising events<br />
include the Torch Run, Polar<br />
Plunge, Tip-a-Cop program,<br />
and the Battle of the Badges<br />
basketball tournament.<br />

By Linda Weber<br />
If wholesome, delicious,<br />
home-cooked meals seem<br />
like a quaint, antiquated<br />
custom that's no longer<br />
possible in your crazy email-<br />
and text-filled life, then you<br />
haven't discovered the secret<br />
weapon yet. Edie Amerando<br />
and Doris Bodenhamer have,<br />
which is why they launched<br />
Dream Dinners in 2006.<br />
"We wanted people to be<br />
able to enjoy varied, creative<br />
meals with family and<br />
friends, no matter what their<br />
schedules are like," says<br />
Amerando, co-owner of the<br />
Clemmons location of this<br />
national company whose<br />
unique meal-assembly<br />
concept has helped families,<br />
couples, singles, and retirees<br />
rediscover, as the French<br />
would say, "the pleasures of<br />
the table."<br />
What is the deal breaker for<br />
you when it comes to<br />
preparing healthy meals that<br />
eliminate "not this again"<br />
from your family's<br />
vocabulary? Is it figuring out<br />
what to cook? Finding the<br />
recipe? Or maybe it's making<br />
the grocery list, driving to the<br />
store, shopping, schlepping<br />
everything back home,<br />
peeling and chopping,<br />
measuring ingredients,<br />
cooking the whole meal,<br />
cleaning up afterwards, not<br />
to mention finding the time<br />
to do all of the above?<br />
Dream Dinners' brilliant<br />
concept eliminates most of<br />
the laborious steps that<br />
separate you from a weekly<br />
menu of dishes such as Baked<br />
Riviera Cod, Classic Chicken<br />
and Dumplings, Normandy<br />
Pork Roast with Apples,<br />
Smoky Bacon-Wrapped<br />
Turkey Medallions, and New<br />
Orleans Jambalaya.<br />
Here's how it works: Fill out<br />
an online menu selecting<br />
from 17 different meals (in<br />
three-portion or six-portion<br />
sizes) and set up an<br />
appointment for a prep<br />
session. The day of the<br />
session, you arrive with a big<br />
box or a cooler, and you and<br />
other Dream Dinners guests<br />
go from meal station to meal<br />
station, putting all the pre-<br />
prepped ingredients in a<br />
Ziploc bag or foil pan. The<br />
vegetables are already peeled<br />
and chopped for you, and the<br />
recipes are color-coded, as are<br />
the measuring spoons. On<br />
your way out, you can pick<br />
up additional already<br />
prepared entrees, side dishes,<br />
and desserts to add to your<br />
order.<br />
When you're done, load all<br />
your meals into your box or<br />
cooler, take everything home,<br />
and place the meals in your<br />
freezer. Then at the beginning<br />
of each week, you take out<br />
the meals you'll be eating,<br />
put them in the refrigerator<br />
to defrost slowly, and cook<br />
them according to the<br />
instructions on each Ziploc<br />
bag or foil pan.<br />
Fortunately, Dream Dinners<br />
is not just about saving time<br />
and serving "wow-factor"<br />
dinners. The company is also<br />
concerned with providing<br />
healthy meals in an age of<br />
skyrocketing rates of obesity<br />
and diabetes. "With Dream<br />
Dinners, families can enjoy<br />
balanced meals that are lower<br />
in total calories, fat, and<br />
added sugars than the take-<br />
out and fast food many<br />
families eat when rushed,"<br />
explains Amerando.<br />
The family-friendly dinners<br />
conform to the Dietary<br />
Guidelines for Americans<br />
recommendations for serving<br />
size, saturated fat, and<br />
sodium. "All nutritional<br />
information is available on<br />
the Dream Dinners website<br />
www.dreamdinners.com,"<br />
says Amerando, who stresses<br />
that the nutritional<br />
breakdown helps diabetics,<br />
cholesterol-watchers, and<br />
people on a heart-healthy diet<br />
keep track of their intake.<br />
Plus, having the meals<br />
already in your freezer<br />
eliminates grocery store and<br />
fast-food temptations.<br />
To give families a chance to<br />
taste Dream Dinners and<br />
experience how easy it is to<br />
eat delicious meals made with<br />
fresh, raw ingredients that<br />
would make Michelle Obama<br />
proud, the company is<br />
offering an introductory<br />
special: 18 individual servings<br />
plus a free six-serving meal at<br />
a trial rate (details available<br />
on the website).<br />
Dream Dinners customer<br />
Melissa Davis, from<br />
Advance, is a convert. "Both<br />
my husband and I work full<br />
time and have three very busy<br />
children under the age of 4,"<br />
she says. "Dream Dinners has<br />
given me my evenings back<br />
and allowed our family to<br />
spend the quality time<br />
together we had been<br />
missing."<br />
Davis's husband, an<br />
accountant, did the math and<br />
determined that the $4.25<br />
cost per portion of Dream<br />
Dinners made financial sense.<br />
But after three months, the<br />
Davises decided they couldn't<br />
attach a dollar figure to the<br />
other benefits. "You can't put<br />
a price on what Dream<br />
Dinners has done for us as a<br />
family," says Davis. "The<br />
food is tremendous, the cost<br />
is affordable, but the time in<br />
the evenings I have gained<br />
back is priceless.<br />

What’s in a Name? You Told Us!<br />
Thank you, Marilyn Wolf, for your beautiful essay on how you changed your name to “became a Wolf,” that was featured on<br />
our Forsyth Woman blog. You opened your heart and told us your moving story, from which our "What Names Have You<br />
Taken?” contest evolved. Our challenge brought us stories of love, family, and determination as women explored their<br />
journeys to new "names" in their lives. Of course, there is only one first place and we congratulate Connie, we mean<br />
"Coniferous," on her inspiring story. And, as the leaves of fall change, the pine remains true! Congratulations, Connie!<br />
1st Place: Coniferous<br />
"You're calling me a tree? Seriously? NO!" That was my<br />
reaction the first time my friends called me Coniferous. They<br />
were on a quest to find a nickname that spawned from my<br />
given name, Connie, and this was the latest favorite. To say<br />
the least, I wasn't thrilled at the idea of being referred to as a<br />
pine tree. But, out of humor or deeper knowing, the name<br />
stuck and for the remainder of graduate school I was<br />
Coniferous to my friends.<br />
As time went on, I came to find that the name was a propos<br />
after all. After I began to embrace the idea of being like a<br />
pine tree, I saw the vast hope and beauty such an image<br />
provides. Like the evergreen pines, I was fast to grow and<br />
always full of life, even in the coldest winters of life's<br />
events. I'd adjust and move to seek the sun, no matter what<br />
obstacles were in my way. Whenever I'd start to get down<br />
about something, I'd reflect on how the pine stands tall and<br />
green, reminding everyone of the life that remains and awaits<br />
the next spring.<br />
Many people are like deciduous trees, who cycle from being<br />
full of life to dormant and back again over their lifetimes, but<br />
I prefer to remain strong and steady in the life I portray to the<br />
world, knowing that the seasons will pass and I'll find myself<br />
basking in the sunlight of spring once again. What a<br />
wonderful nickname after all.<br />
2nd Place: Songwriter<br />
In pondering names I have been called, the most unsuspected<br />
one would be songwriter.<br />
As early as 3 years old, I loved listening to 33 1/3s on our<br />
record player, singing to the top of my lungs and “making<br />
music.” Music is in my soul, part of the many things making<br />
me, me. Upon learning to write, I began the journey of<br />
writing poems and lyrics. By the time I was 26 and married,<br />
the collection of "Poems, Prayers and Promises" had grown to<br />
require a 3 inch notebook.<br />
Never an accomplished piano player, never a remarkable<br />
violinist, I had almost given up when a friend loaned me a<br />
guitar. Learning chords was easier than I thought. It occurred<br />
to me to take some of the lyrics which were growing towards<br />
4 notebooks full, and try my hand at writing music for the<br />
words of my heart.<br />
Alas, the title that is most endearing to me, has been<br />
songwriter. Over time, I have been blessed to meet other<br />
musicians, some who have put my lyrics to music. These<br />
songs have been sung at church, funerals, weddings, and<br />
worship events. Some of the songs I have co-written have<br />
made it to a recorded CD.<br />
As I grow and stretch, and live, and work, and breathe, I<br />
know there will be many names that I will be called (some I<br />
may not care for), but the one name I have been called and<br />
will cherish is "songwriter."<br />

3rd Place: Gammy<br />
When that first grandchild was announced, the task of what I<br />
would be called began!!! What was this little girl going to call<br />
her maternal grandmother? There were quite a few<br />
suggestions from many interested folks, including all the<br />
standards: Grandmother, Mema, Meme, Mamma, etc. but<br />
nothing seemed exactly right to me, the receiver of the name.<br />
None of those names seemed to fit my personality. I needed<br />
something different and even considered having her call me by<br />
just my first name. But after practicing that for a bit, it<br />
seemed quite uninspired and so the quest continued.<br />
The paternal grandmother was already Nana so, consequently,<br />
that name was out for me, and my favorite of the bunch so<br />
far, Granna, was just a sound too close to that one and the<br />
soon to be ‘Aunt Anna.’ Granna was even tried when the<br />
little one made her appearance, but it was just too confusing!<br />
And then one day, from out of nowhere came a name that<br />
was so apparent, it was surprising that it had not been<br />
considered at the onset of ‘grandmotherhood.’ Today, after<br />
seven years and an additional granddaughter, I am known to<br />
those two special little girls as Gammy!<br />
Honorable Mention: Psychologist<br />
The Curvy Road to Becoming a Psychologist - The official<br />
journey began in 2003 with my acceptance into graduate<br />
school. However, the dream began much earlier. A<br />
developmental psychology course my freshman year at<br />
Carolina sparked my interest in the field of psychology. I never<br />
looked back! I wanted to take as many classes in child<br />
psychology as I could! I added to my experience by teaching<br />
at an at-risk preschool in downtown Raleigh for a year and<br />
then headed to graduate school at ECU. The journey through<br />
graduate school, as well as licensure, was grueling but worth<br />
it! It is amazing the difference between undergraduate and<br />
graduate studies! Through the papers, exams, a 1,000 hour<br />
internship, conference presentations, and everything in<br />
between, it was always exciting to learn something new while<br />
getting closer to my dream!<br />
I have been practicing psychology for three years in private<br />
practice and love it more today than I did the first day! I<br />
specialize in behavioral problems. I love helping children and<br />
their families make it through the tough times of behavioral<br />
problems, anxiety, depression and school related issues, among<br />
other things. I have a gift for bonding and developing good<br />
rapport with children quickly, which helps make my job more<br />
enjoyable for the clients and me. This is a job that I love<br />
going to daily! I cannot get enough of it! I have found my<br />
dream job and I love that I am now known as a<br />
“psychologist.”

Welcome back Y’all<br />
This month’s column is about matters of taste when it comes to<br />
our daily wardrobe. Whether we like it or not, our clothes say<br />
something about us as women. While fashion trends come and go,<br />
below are some simple truths for our grandmothers, mothers,<br />
sisters, and daughters that are sure to stay around.<br />
Shorter Lessons: “Addressing Attire”<br />
Just because it is on the rack<br />
doesn’t mean you should buy it.<br />
Just because it is on sale<br />
doesn’t mean you should buy it, either.<br />
I know good as any that some of us women have an evil twin named<br />
Compulsive Carol. When we are shopping by ourselves, Compulsive Carol<br />
minds her manners (most of the time); however, Heaven help us if Compulsive<br />
Carol comes to play while shopping with others! Before you’re persuaded, ask<br />
yourself: Am I buying it just because it’s half off? When and where can I see<br />
myself wearing this? When on, does it refract light, give others headaches,<br />
look like something my dog would like to play with, and/or make our<br />
county’s school dress code? Too short, too patterned, and too fuzzy are hard<br />
to justify.<br />
Curing a case of the shiny and jingles.<br />
If you’ve got more jewelry on than God-given fingers, it’s time to<br />
put some back.<br />
Understand the difference between<br />
flaunting an attitude and exuding confidence.<br />
Attitude = Wearing a cheetah print that may attract the good looking man<br />
on aisle five, or a feisty feline…<br />
Confidence = Wearing a smile and knowing the good looking man on aisle<br />
five will come to you.<br />
Indeed, there are times for both of these qualities, but be aware of the message<br />
you send with the clothes you wear. Are they appropriate for the situation?<br />
The Golden Rule(s) of Thumb.<br />
If you would think twice before wearing it to your grandma’s house, if it<br />
doesn’t fit your natural body, or if it isn’t true to who you are, you won’t be<br />
comfortable. Your wardrobe should really accentuate your true beauty.<br />
So until next time, Y’all, turn on the lights, look in the mirror and leave the<br />
house with a refined “strut your stuff” confidence. As usual, my ears are<br />
already burning so use that email etiquette and express your stylish self to<br />

Money Management Ideas<br />
for Single Parents<br />
By John G. Palmer<br />
Iadmire the many single-parent households in our<br />
community. Many are working people raising children on<br />
a modest household income. The purpose of this article is<br />
simply to share some ideas with single-parent<br />
households…ideas I’ve acquired during my 25 years in<br />
financial services.<br />
Financial Statements and Budgets<br />
Everyone, regardless of wealth, needs to prepare a financial<br />
statement and a budget. These documents show where you<br />
are today, and help you measure future progress. To prepare<br />
your financial statement, list all your assets and then list your<br />
liabilities. The difference is your net worth. Your assets<br />
would include the market value of any real estate you own;<br />
personal possessions, such as automobiles, household effects,<br />
art and other collections; and financial accounts, including the<br />
cash value of any life insurance you own. Your liabilities<br />
include all monies owed. A budget, which would show your<br />
monthly income and expenses, helps you decide whether, and<br />
how, to lower expenses, save more, invest more, etc. I update<br />
my financial statement annually, usually in early April, once<br />
income tax returns are finalized.<br />
If you are not happy with your income, get a part-time job to<br />
earn extra income. You could (and probably should anyway)<br />
train your children to help you with your housework. Then,<br />
as your part-time job, go help some other household with<br />
their housework. Also, you may find work among our large<br />
and growing elderly population who need help in many areas,<br />
including meal planning and preparation, home repairs, and<br />
transportation.<br />
Savings Accounts<br />
Open a bank or credit union savings account. The interest it<br />
pays is not so important. What matters is that you now have<br />
a place to park money that you might otherwise squander.<br />
Take a good percentage – I like 15% – and every time you get<br />
a pay check, put that 15% into your savings account. The<br />
main purpose of the savings account is to help you get<br />
through emergencies and to pay down debt, such as credit<br />
card debt. Put the 15% in the bank off the top…i.e., pay<br />
yourself first.<br />
Establish a retirement account for your old age. We highly<br />
recommend the Roth IRA. You can establish one for as little<br />
as $25 per month. In return, it offers you tax-free gains, taxfree<br />
withdrawals (after age 59 1/2), and no required minimum<br />
withdrawals as would be required with a traditional IRA.<br />
Also, you may continue to add to your Roth IRA beyond age<br />
70 ½ as long as you are working (not so with a traditional<br />
IRA where you must stop contributing upon reaching<br />
age 70 ½).<br />
74 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
Life Insurance<br />
Own life insurance. Your family<br />
needs it to pay your final<br />
expenses and to replace income<br />
lost because of your death.<br />
Make cash value life insurance the cornerstone of your life<br />
insurance program. In an uncertain economic climate, your<br />
cash value policy gives you security. You’ll own an asset that<br />
will grow at a modest but predictable rate. The growth is<br />
100% tax free. The death benefit passes to your heirs tax<br />
free. Limit using the cash value for major life goals such as a<br />
down payment for a house or for tuition. At retirement you<br />
have the option of annuitizing the cash for monthly income.<br />
Also, many policies offer riders, such as double indemnity for<br />
an accidental death, waiver of premium in case you become<br />
disabled, and extra life insurance for all children.<br />
Term insurance has its place, especially for mortgage<br />
protection. Naturally, accept the free life insurance offered by<br />
banks and credit unions, but read the fine print. You may be<br />
covered only for accidental death.<br />
Discipline yourself to avoid withdrawing prematurely from<br />
your retirement accounts and from your life insurance,<br />
although this is sometimes easier said than done.<br />
Wills, Trusts, and Powers of Attorney<br />
Create the following documents: (a) a will (and/or trust) to<br />
name your estate executor, to appoint guardians for your<br />
children, and to distribute your property at your death; (b) a<br />
durable power of attorney to manage your finances should<br />
you become incapacitated; (c) a healthcare power of attorney<br />
to make medical decisions on your behalf; and (d) a living will<br />
to spell out your wishes about being kept alive if you are in a<br />
coma.<br />
People often procrastinate in establishing these documents,<br />
and for various reasons, including cost. But there are ways to<br />
avoid or minimize costs. For example, Hospice, at no cost,<br />
can create both your healthcare power of attorney and your<br />
living will. And, if your income is below a certain level, the<br />
Legal Aid Society, at no cost, will prepare your will and<br />
durable power of attorney. Or, for $26 per month, you can<br />
join Pre-Paid Legal who will then help you with these<br />
documents and a host of other legal matters.<br />
With our nation in the midst of a recession of a size not seen<br />
since the great depression, the timing couldn’t be better for<br />
each of us to develop and refine our personal financial plans<br />
and strategies. As for this article, even if you find just one or<br />
two ideas that you can use to help your family, then I’ll<br />
conclude that you and I accomplished something worthwhile<br />
together.<br />

Lessons in the Art of Self-Expression<br />
By Linda Weber<br />
Ihave had a lifelong<br />
passion for paintings,<br />
drawings, sculptures,<br />
and other works<br />
produced outside the art<br />
mainstream. It's hard<br />
not to love art that is<br />
pure expression —<br />
playful, exuberant, and<br />
unbound by rules and<br />
conventions.<br />
So I was in for a treat the day I visited The Enrichment<br />
Center, an arts-based day program for adults with<br />
developmental and physical disabilities. In fact, it turned<br />
out to be much more of a treat than I had anticipated.<br />
The first thing I learned was that The Enrichment<br />
Center's arts programs cover a broad spectrum of<br />
creative disciplines that include so much more than the<br />
usual visual arts media. Clients can receive professional<br />
instruction and studio time in dance, drama, music,<br />
digital photography, ceramics, scrapbooking, and<br />
working with textiles, among others. They can also<br />
enroll in classes unrelated to the arts, in computer<br />
skills, life skills, exercise and nutrition, women's health, and<br />
communication skills that help them in relationships.<br />
My first stop was the music room, where The Enrichment<br />
Center Percussion Ensemble was practicing. Made up of six<br />
client musicians on glockenspiel, keyboards, piano, marimba,<br />
vibraphone, and drums, the ensemble performed a lovely<br />
composition written by their instructor, composer, musician,<br />
and vocalist Aaron Bachelder. Obviously gifted, the students,<br />
who perform regularly, have recorded CDs. In addition, the<br />
group does live performances several times a year. "In 2008,<br />
they received an invitation to go to New York to perform at<br />
the American Folk Art Museum in Brooklyn," explains<br />
Bachelder, who often accompanies them on guitar.<br />
Next stop was the ceramics studio where ceramics multimedia<br />
instructor Stacey Sword-Halsey showed me how<br />
beginners learn to hand build bowls by taking lots of marblesized<br />
balls of clay and squishing them together. They later<br />
progress to other hand building techniques and construct<br />
pieces from sheets of clay. And a few participants learn to use<br />
the wheel. "When I see pieces on the shelf, I can tell<br />
immediately whose art this is, because just as their<br />
personalities are individual, so is their artwork," says Sword-<br />
Halsay. With their bright, happy colored glazes and charming<br />
imperfections, the cups, bowls, and vases have the appeal of<br />
folk art. Fortunately, The Enrichment Center, which is<br />
planning a sale around the holidays, is the perfect place to<br />
shop for those of us who look for charming and unusual<br />
handmade gifts that also allow us to contribute to a charitable<br />
cause.<br />
Next door is the arts studio, where clients create paintings,<br />
drawings, prints, hand-painted cards, decorative furniture,<br />
quilts, sculptures, and holiday ornaments, a kaleidoscopic<br />
array of whimsical, colorful work that gives the room an<br />
energetic vibe. To enrich what are already enriching programs,<br />
the Center reaches out to artists in the community. Local<br />
printmaker Mona Wu is one of a number of artists who have<br />
done workshops with students in the Center.<br />
One of this year's highlights for the arts programs was the<br />
announcement that two Enrichment Center visual artists,<br />
Raymond Mariani and Jonathan Lindsy, were<br />
among five North Carolina artists<br />
whose work has been chosen to<br />
appear in a national exhibition, the<br />
People's Biennial. This two-year<br />
itinerant exhibition of work by<br />
underappreciated artists who are not a<br />
part of the art world, will be shown at<br />
one venue in each of five states,<br />
including SECCA, where it will be on<br />
display from July 8 through September<br />
18, 2011. "What's exciting about this is<br />
that Raymond and Jonathan are being<br />
recognized as individual artists," says<br />
visual arts instructor Shayna Parker. "This<br />
is not an exhibition for people with disabilities."<br />
The 26-year-old center, which is an affiliated chapter of The<br />
Arc, is a private not-for-profit adult day vocational program<br />
that receives a major portion of its operating budget from the<br />
United Way. However, The Enrichment Center also<br />
contributes to its own funding through grants and arts<br />
income. Gateway Gallery, which is open to the public, features<br />
bi-monthly collaborative shows pairing artwork by students<br />
with work by one or more local artists without disabilities. A<br />
portion of the proceeds from art sales go to the artist and the<br />
remainder is funneled into the program. The Enrichment<br />
Center Percussion Ensemble's CDs are also on sale to help<br />
fund programs, and the members of the ensemble earn<br />
royalties from the sales. The Center also rents several large<br />
rooms in their facility for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays,<br />
sweet sixteens, quinceañeras, banquets, fundraisers, and other<br />
events, and operates a small gift shop. Profits from rentals go<br />
towards programs.<br />
Says Sue Kneppelt, the director of Gateway Gallery and Art<br />
Marketing for the Center: "Although we offer a number of<br />
other educational programs and rehabilitation services, such<br />
as supported employment and representative payee, we are<br />
especially proud of the skills, talent, and self-expression we<br />
foster in our arts programs. They give our students the<br />
opportunity to develop rich creative lives in a safe and<br />
stimulating environment in order to become active and<br />
productive members of the community."

Warriors in the Fight against Gynecologic Cancer<br />
This year alone, more than 80,000 women in the United<br />
States will be diagnosed with some form of gynecologic<br />
cancer. In fact, a new case of gynecologic cancer – or<br />
cancer of the cervix, ovaries, uterus, fallopian tubes, vagina or<br />
vulva – is diagnosed once every seven minutes. Although<br />
gynecologic cancers can affect women of any age, awareness<br />
about this group of diseases remains low. But a dedicated<br />
group of gynecologic cancer patients, survivors, physicians<br />
and supporters is hoping to change that view here in the<br />
Triad.<br />
On Saturday, Oct. 30, the Derrick L.<br />
Davis Forsyth Regional Cancer Center at<br />
Forsyth Medical Center will host the<br />
inaugural Athena’s Run for GYN<br />
Cancers at Tanglewood Park Shelter #4,<br />
beginning at 8 a.m. The event, which<br />
features a 1-mile walk/ fun run and 5K<br />
run, is designed to raise not only<br />
awareness of gynecologic cancers but<br />
also funds to help prevent them.<br />
“Athena was the goddess of war,<br />
wisdom and heroic endeavors, and she<br />
symbolizes the thousands of women who<br />
wage battle against gynecologic cancers<br />
every day,” explains Elizabeth Skinner,<br />
M.D., a gynecologic oncologist at<br />
Forsyth Regional Cancer Center, who<br />
spearheaded the idea for Athena’s Run.<br />
“Athena’s Run is designed to celebrate those who have<br />
survived, honor those who have passed and encourage those<br />
who are still struggling in their fight.”<br />
Dr. Skinner, who is an avid runner, came up with the idea for<br />
Athena’s Run after taking part in the inaugural Race to End<br />
Women’s Cancer in Washington, D.C., last November. The<br />
race, which helped bring gynecologic cancers more to the<br />
national stage, was a great opportunity, Dr. Skinner thought,<br />
and deserved to be replicated on a local level. She quickly<br />
enlisted the help of eight other women – her physician’s<br />
assistant and nurse, five women who have been treated for a<br />
gynecologic cancer, and the loved one of a patient who had<br />
recently passed away from ovarian cancer – and Athena’s Run<br />
was born.<br />
“We really want to make sure that women understand that<br />
gynecologic cancers do exist, that they can be prevented, and<br />
that they can be treated,” Dr. Skinner says. “The most<br />
important piece, though, is that women understand what these<br />
cancers are, learn to recognize the signs and symptoms, and<br />
know where to turn if they have a problem. Just by having an<br />
annual pelvic exam and Pap smear, you can significantly<br />
increase your chances of early detection and survival.”<br />
One Woman’s Battle Cry<br />
Although she couldn’t explain it, Linda McRae knew that<br />
something just wasn’t right. In February, the 47-year-old from<br />
Winston-Salem discovered a lump in her lower right abdomen.<br />
She struggled to push the worry out of her mind, trying to<br />
convince herself that what she’d felt was caused by bloating or<br />
78 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
a new exercise regime. But despite her best efforts, Linda felt<br />
a voice deep inside urging her to get a second opinion.<br />
“I asked my husband to examine me, but he said he didn’t feel<br />
anything,” Linda recalls. “I thought maybe he was right, but<br />
a few weeks later, I checked myself again, and I felt the lump<br />
again. That’s when I made up my mind to make an<br />
appointment with my gynecologist.”<br />
Within days, her doctor confirmed what Linda had already<br />
suspected – she had an abdominal mass. Almost immediately,<br />
Linda – who had a partial hysterectomy<br />
15 years earlier – underwent surgery<br />
again, this time to have the mass and<br />
both her ovaries removed. Testing later<br />
confirmed that Linda’s mass was<br />
dysgerminoma, a form of ovarian cancer<br />
that is, fortunately, highly treatable.<br />
“I was just stunned because, since my<br />
partial hysterectomy, I had never had an<br />
abnormal Pap smear or any other<br />
gynecologic problems,” she explains.<br />
“The blessing, though, was that my<br />
form of ovarian cancer was more than<br />
90 percent curable and, after 10 weeks<br />
of chemotherapy, my scans showed no<br />
more cancer.”<br />
Not only is Linda planning to<br />
participate in the Athena’s Run 5K,<br />
she’s also involving her husband, children and grandchildren<br />
in the festivities. And as one of the event’s organizers, Linda<br />
is passionate about empowering other women to learn more<br />
about gynecologic cancer and how they can protect<br />
themselves.<br />
“I really want to teach women that there are more types of<br />
cancer out there that are just as deadly as breast cancer, but<br />
that there are also ways that we can help ourselves so that we<br />
can have better outcomes,” Linda adds. “I want them to<br />
know that there is life after cancer and that with modern<br />
medicine, the expertise of gynecologic oncologists such as Dr.<br />
Skinner and profound faith, there is hope.”<br />

It’s that time of year again, crisp mornings and cool evenings begin to creep upon us and a colorful quilt of leaves signifies the<br />
turn of yet another season. What better reason to warm up your kitchen and lure the family in with the smells of cinnamon<br />
and sugar than baking some sweet breads, being sure to pour in your love as the most important ingredient.<br />

Cycling: It’s Not Just a Boys’ Sport!<br />
With the cooler temperatures of <strong>October</strong> turning our<br />
minds to pumpkins, hot chocolate, and Halloween,<br />
many think it’s time to put up the bike or settle it on<br />
the trainer (a training device that elevates the back wheel, so you<br />
can pedal inside) until spring. On the contrary, fall is one of the<br />
most beautiful times to ride a bike around the Triad area. With a<br />
little extra preparation, you can take in the beautiful colors of<br />
fall with only the sound of the wind as you whip down a trail or<br />
road.<br />
Preparing for cooler temperature cycling can be summed up in<br />
one word – layers. Starting off in cooler temperatures makes it<br />
easier to get chilled initially, especially with the speed of the bike,<br />
but as you settle into your ride and enjoy the scenery you’ll find<br />
that your core body temperature rises and what was once feeling<br />
cold, feels delightful. Here are a few ways to handle this change<br />
in temperature:<br />
Jackets – Clemmons Bicycle has a selection of jackets ranging<br />
from the thin windbreaker for your first trips in the fall, to the<br />
thicker fleece for your rides on the edge of winter season. Some<br />
great features of bicycling jackets are that they have handy<br />
pockets in the back and are wind resistant (keeps the chill down<br />
when the wind isn’t blowing through).<br />
Arm Warmers – These are great additions to any cyclist’s gear<br />
because they are perfect on the “iffy” days, where it feels cool<br />
but you find that long sleeves are just too hot as you settle into<br />
your ride. Arm warmers slide up the arms and are taken off and<br />
put in the pocket.<br />
Gloves – Many like to wear cycling gloves during normal rides<br />
for sweating hands, but gloves also come in handy during colder<br />
temps. The first two places on the body that feel the chill are the<br />
hands and the head. Put a hat on under your helmet and gloves<br />
or liner gloves under your bicycling gloves to ward off the cold.<br />
Riding Lights – Stay safe with the Sigma Tail Blazer light, a<br />
bright, weatherproof LED light that is visible up to 1 mile away,<br />
letting all motorists know you are there so they can share the<br />
road. Let the staff at Clemmons Bicycle Shop show you how<br />
this handy little device is a must for cyclists.<br />

Now that you are sufficiently prepared, here’s a list<br />
of beautiful rides around the Triad area. This<br />
doesn’t include all, so be sure to check out our<br />
Facebook fanpage for a discussion of other beautiful<br />
rides.<br />
Clemmons Bicycle Shop Loop – Ride a 5 mile loop<br />
from the parking lot of the shop and catch the pretty<br />
scenery of Clemmons – just follow the loop signs. Want to<br />
do it with friends? Come Wednesday nights during the fall<br />
for a fun ride for cyclists of any level!<br />
Reynolda Road – There’s nothing more beautiful<br />
through the fall than riding that stretch of Reynolda<br />
Road by the Reynolda Manor House and SECCA.<br />
The road is covered by trees all showing their beautiful<br />
colors.<br />
Yadkinville Road – This ride out to 421 takes you<br />
along tree lined streets and farmland. You could<br />
catch a glimpse of a stray deer as you enjoy the<br />
colors of fall.<br />
Rt 66 to Hanging Rock – Head out to the country,<br />
past tobacco fields, to the entrance of Hanging Rock State<br />
Park and challenge yourself in a climb to the top of the<br />
mountain while enjoying the beautiful view of fall colors!<br />
Lewisville Square to East Bend – A road not as heavily<br />
traveled, this is an easier, less hilly ride that still shows all<br />
the beauty of fall!<br />
Salem Lake Greenway and Trail – This is stunning in<br />
the fall and if you want the adventure of mountain<br />
biking in a less technical course, this is the trail for<br />
you.<br />
Clemmons Bicycle Shop has free copies of many<br />
different beautiful routes around the area, as well as<br />
fall deals on closeout summer clothing and everything<br />
you need for fall. Don’t let the first golds, browns, reds<br />
and yellows of fall be your sign to park your bicycle –<br />
stop by Clemmons Bicycle Shop and outfit yourself<br />
against the cooler temperatures, and then get out and enjoy<br />
nature using pedal power!

Halloween is all about creating an illusion and putting on a<br />
show, and no one does it better than TWIN CITY STAGE, the<br />
Triad’s premier community theatre. From handmade, one-ofa-kind<br />
costumes available for rent, to the opening of<br />
To Kill a Mockingbird on <strong>October</strong><br />
29th, TWIN<br />
CITY<br />
STAGE<br />
celebrates<br />
the holiday<br />
in grand<br />
style and<br />
invites<br />
everyone to<br />
be a part of<br />
the magic of<br />
live theatre.<br />
“Our<br />
Halloween<br />
celebration is<br />
really twofold,”<br />
said Laura Ward, TWIN<br />
CITY STAGE’s Marketing<br />
Director. “To Kill a<br />
Mockingbird opens on Friday,<br />
Oct. 29th with a pre-show<br />
champagne reception for our<br />
guests. Then on Saturday,<br />
Oct. 30th, we throw another<br />
party for ticket holders prior<br />
to the show at 6 pm entitled,<br />
Boo Bash. There will be a<br />
costume contest for the best<br />
‘Scout’ and ‘Atticus Finch’<br />
look-a-likes, great food and a<br />
performance by the Winston- Salem Youth<br />
Chorus of haunting Halloween songs. It’s just another way<br />
TWIN CITY STAGE can make a night at the theatre<br />
MAGICAL.”<br />
Boo Bash is slated to be one of the most exciting events of the<br />
year for TWIN CITY STAGE. The event is called Boo Bash<br />
for two reasons: in honor of the play’s famous character,<br />
84 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
Celebrate Halloween with TWIN CITY STAGE<br />
Costumes, Boo Bash,<br />
and Mockingbirds - OH, MY!<br />
By Tulip Too<br />
"Boo" Radley, and because the<br />
play actually takes place over<br />
Halloween in both the<br />
book and on stage. “It<br />
will be as if the story<br />
was unfolding in<br />
REAL time,” said<br />
Ward.<br />
And don’t forget,<br />
when it comes to<br />
costume rental,<br />
TWIN CITY<br />
STAGE is king.<br />
“Our costume<br />
shop is one<br />
of the best<br />
kept secrets in<br />
Winston-Salem,” explained Ward. “For<br />
as little as $35 dollars, a person can rent a<br />
complete, TWIN CITY STAGE original costume<br />
that looks like something from a movie set. From<br />
pirates to cowboys, queens to hippy chicks, TWIN<br />
CITY STAGE has the most comprehensive collection<br />
of costumes for rent in the Triad,” said Ward.<br />
The TWIN CITY STAGE costume shop is open<br />
Wednesday and Fridays from 11am to 6pm and<br />
recommends clients schedule an appointment 3 weeks<br />
prior to Halloween to ensure availability of all<br />
accessories and costumes. “I highly recommend<br />
customers DO NOT wait until the last minute to avoid<br />
disappointment,” Ward stressed. “The more elaborate<br />
the costume, the more time it takes to create a total look.<br />
Our staff is dedicated to great customer service and<br />
wants our customers to look stunning.”<br />

Fall is the Perfect Time to Think Spring!<br />
By Carolyn S. Peterson<br />
As the days get cooler, the nights get longer, and another<br />
summer comes to an end, you may think that it is way too early<br />
to be thinking about your lawn and next spring. According to<br />
Ricky McIntyre of Carolina Creations Landscaping, fall is the<br />
perfect time to get your lawn and landscape healthier and<br />
greener for next spring than ever before.<br />
Care Now Means Beauty Later<br />
“The winter months bring a sleep to your lawn, but the care<br />
and tending that you give it before and during its dormant<br />
time can completely change what you see when it awakens in<br />
the spring,” said Ricky McIntyre.<br />
In the Piedmont/Triad area, most lawns are primarily sown in<br />
grasses known as cool-season, as opposed to warm-season.<br />
“Kentucky bluegrass and fescue are what most people have in<br />
their yards. Knowing the proper care for the type of grass<br />
that is in your lawn is important because even when the top<br />
growth stops, and you may not need to mow as often, the<br />
maintenance and care is still needed,” commented McIntyre.<br />
The Secret is in the Plugging<br />
To really get the seed, fertilizer, and lime, which McIntyre<br />

LANDSCAPING<br />
recommends<br />
for lawns, into<br />
the soil,<br />
plugging the<br />
lawn is a must.<br />
“I have seen<br />
some plugging jobs barely break the soil. I know the<br />
importance of plugging and when I plug a yard, you know it<br />
has been plugged! I will tear up the ground at a bare spot<br />
with the aerator and make sure what we are sowing gets<br />
where it needs to be,” stated McIntyre.<br />
To Fertilize, Or Not to Fertilize, That is the Question…<br />
“For many homeowners, there is a misconception that if I<br />
fertilize in the spring, I don’t need to do so in the fall. That<br />
couldn’t be further from the truth. With that last application<br />
as the grass is getting ready for the fall and winter, you’re<br />
helping the grass store up ‘food’ for the cold days of winter,<br />
and getting it ready to be its greenest in the spring. During<br />
this time, the roots of the grass also get strong, making for a<br />
healthier lawn in the spring,” McIntyre stated.<br />
Just picking up a bag of fertilizer at your local store will not<br />
ensure a greener lawn in the spring. All fertilizers are not<br />
created equal. “A slow release fertilizer is best for the fall<br />
application. You need the fertilizer to work and feed your<br />
lawn for around 3 months and that is the time that a slow<br />
release fertilizer is designed to work. Quick release fertilizers<br />
may get that quick greening of the lawn, but it can also burn<br />
and streak a yard,” said McIntyre.<br />
Fall is the Time to Plant!<br />
What is the best complement to a beautiful green lawn?<br />
Healthy, thriving shrubs, bushes and plants - and there is no<br />
better time to plant those than in the fall. “By planting any<br />
shrubs, bushes or trees during the fall, you allow the plant and<br />
its root ball time to get established throughout the fall, winter<br />
and spring before the heat of the summer hits,” McIntyre<br />
stated.<br />
Mulch and Pine Straw - Your Shrubs’ Best Insulation<br />
A fresh load of mulch or a bale of pine straw always makes<br />
the yard look its best, but there is another reason for those<br />
items to be added to your landscape. “Some mulch or pine<br />
straw around shrubs during the fall helps to protect the plant,<br />
especially the root ball from the cold temperatures of winter,”<br />
said McIntyre.<br />
With his years of experience, Ricky McIntyre knows a little<br />
something about what it takes, year around, to have the lawn<br />
of your dreams. “With good fall lawn care, your lawn should<br />
be well prepared for winter and be a welcome sight in the<br />
spring,” McIntyre stated.<br />

Organic Shrub and Tree Care with Shrub Doctor<br />
By Mary Hollingsworth<br />
Did you know that 15% of your property value can be<br />
attributed to the overall appearance of your<br />
landscape? Healthy plants and lawns are not just<br />
pretty to look at, they are an investment in your property!<br />
Shrub Doctor provides annual, integrated plant healthcare<br />
programs that control disease and infestation in your<br />
ornamental trees and shrubs, and promote healthy growth.<br />
Their shrub and tree program includes an advanced approach<br />
to plant care, including six scheduled visits to your property<br />
annually. Each treatment has a different protocol, to meet the<br />
seasonal needs of the landscape. Depending on the conditions<br />
of the landscape, additional visits and treatments will be made<br />
if necessary. Detailed plant inspections are made at each visit.<br />
This proactive approach allows Shrub Doctor to discover<br />
insect and disease issues at an early stage, to prevent plant<br />
loss.<br />
Custom Fertilization Blends<br />
The shrub and tree program includes fertilization of the plants<br />
via foliar and soil application. Both liquid and granular<br />
products are utilized, depending on the season, and the<br />
physical needs of the plant. All of the products are custom<br />
blended organic recipes, freshly blended daily to assure<br />
effectiveness.<br />
Many of Shrub Doctor’s products contain live populations of<br />
beneficial bacteria and fungi. Depending on the treatment,<br />
these microbes will be part of the organic protocol, and will<br />
be introduced to the landscape. Beneficial bacteria and fungi<br />
deliver nutrients from the soil, to the roots of the plant. These<br />
microbes also play a major role is disease control.<br />
Integrated Pest Management Program<br />
Shrub Doctor’s service also includes an Integrated Pest<br />
Management program. During the early spring season, they<br />
utilize a systemic insect control. This product is introduced at<br />
both the soil and foliar level. Systemic treatments are drawn<br />
into the plant cells during respiration. Insect controls are<br />
continued throughout warm seasons, to control infestation,<br />
and to reduce plant stress. The active ingredient in our insect<br />
control is nicotine. Nicotine causes an interruption to the<br />
insect nervous system, yet possesses no negative reactions to<br />
humans. Plants will be monitored during the warm seasons,<br />
90 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
and additional<br />
insect<br />
treatments<br />
will be made<br />
when<br />
necessary, at<br />
no additional<br />
charge.<br />
Vitamins Improve Plan Health<br />
Additional services include deep root tree fertilizations and<br />
micro-injection treatments. Deep root fertilization is<br />
performed via liquid application. Organic blends are injected<br />
into the root zone of the tree. This service is used to improve<br />
the tree’s root system, to reduce stress, and to build the<br />
microbial activity of the soil. Micro-injections of vitamins,<br />
fungicides, and insect controls can be made to the trunk of a<br />
tree to improve health, eliminate disease, and to eliminate<br />
insect infestations. These injections are made around the base<br />
of the tree, early in the morning. The treatments are drawn<br />
into the tree during respiration. The vials are removed after<br />
uptake.<br />
Following each inspection and/or treatment, a report is drafted<br />
to keep the customer informed of the conditions and<br />
improvements of the landscape. Additional consultations and<br />
meetings can also be arranged at no additional cost.<br />

Tan, ecru, latte, buff…no matter what you call it, beige<br />
is king when it comes to wall color. It’s the standard<br />
found in most new homes and the go-to shade<br />
popularized by home improvement television. So which beige<br />
is best?<br />
Look at a paint deck and your eyes will probably glaze over as<br />
all the beige-colored neutrals<br />
begin to look alike. And who<br />
can resist their enticing names,<br />
like: Sand Dunes, Basket Beige,<br />
High Tea, and Malted Milk?<br />
Yet it’s this over-abundance of<br />
choices that makes selecting a<br />
neutral paint color so<br />
challenging. Here’s the inside<br />
scoop on neutral colors and<br />
how to choose the right one.<br />
Neutral Ground<br />
When it comes to paint shades,<br />
there are many interpretations<br />
of what truly is a “neutral.”<br />
Some people consider neutrals<br />
to be any shade of brown. Others expand the category to<br />
include muted shades of green, yellow, peach and blue.<br />
Technically speaking, the only true neutrals are black, white<br />
and grey. But for this discussion we’ll focus on what the word<br />
92 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
“Neutral” Territory<br />
Navigating “Neutral” Territory - How to choose the best neutral colors for your home.<br />
“neutral” is most often used to describe: variations of white,<br />
beige and light brown.<br />
Mismatched Neutrals<br />
While it may seem like all neutrals work together—it’s not<br />
that simple. One of the most common frustrations I hear from<br />
clients is the challenge of matching different shades of beige.<br />
For example, it’s not<br />
unusual to have a new sofa<br />
(upholstered in a neutral<br />
fabric) arrive only to find<br />
that it doesn’t match your<br />
neutral walls—even though<br />
they’re both beige. Upon<br />
closer inspection you might<br />
notice that your sofa is<br />
more of a khaki shade of<br />
beige and your walls are<br />
more of a pinky-beige. The<br />
problem—and solution—is<br />
in the color’s undertones.<br />
In order to find the best<br />
neutrals for your home, you<br />
must assess each color’s<br />
undertone. In the above example, the sofa fabric has a<br />
greenish undertone while the wall color has a reddish<br />
undertone. The original colors used to create the beige<br />
determine its undertones. Undertones also influence whether a<br />
shade has a ‘warm’ or ‘cool’ feeling. This is where a<br />
professional, certified color specialist can assist you. We help<br />
clients choose the best colors for their homes based on<br />
principles of color theory and harmonious design.<br />
Neutral, Not Boring<br />
While neutrals are a safe choice for home décor, they don’t<br />
have to be boring. Neutral walls provide an ideal backdrop<br />
for colorful artwork. A beige sofa can be dressed up with<br />
accent pillows featuring rich colors and patterns. And a<br />
colorful rug is an easy way to break up a large expanse of<br />
neutral-toned carpeting or wood flooring.<br />
If you’re not a risk-taker when it comes to color, neutrals are<br />
the solution. The beauty of decorating with these shades is<br />
that they can be dressed up or down, they harmonize with a<br />
variety of finishes (wood, leather, metallic, glass), and their<br />
appeal is timeless.<br />
Trisha McBride Ferguson is a certified ‘Color for Your<br />
Home’ color specialist, interior decorator and owner of Idea<br />
Garden Interiors. She’s passionate about helping clients find<br />
their home’s best colors—whether they’re neutral shades, deep<br />
hues or somewhere in between.

WEEPING PLANTS:<br />
The Drama Kings and Queens of the Plant World<br />
Weeping plants have always interested me. Some folks think<br />
they look sad, but I believe they have a swashbuckler<br />
attitude. They create<br />
interest and focal points<br />
in the landscape, and they<br />
can be used in containers<br />
or over rock walls for a<br />
very dramatic flair.<br />
Weepers generally come<br />
from genetic mutations of<br />
the species or a chance<br />
seedling that someone has<br />
observed growing out in a<br />
production nursery that<br />
looks weird and odd. I<br />
have gone to several<br />
locations over the decades<br />
where the growers were<br />
digging out 6-8' high<br />
Hemlocks and then, in<br />
the same patch, there is<br />
one that might only be 2'<br />
high and spreading out.<br />
They generally have a<br />
pendulous form or even hang straight down. They should<br />
always be tested prior to selection to ensure that they have<br />
what it takes to make it in the open market. Most weepers<br />
are highly prized for their forms.<br />
As with the "Weeping White Pine," some of the children's<br />
groups from elementary schools that come for visits to our<br />
operation believe it is the "T-Rex Plant" from prehistoric<br />
days. They are all absolutely fascinating to observe; they are<br />
truly “living sculptures.” They even may make you stop,<br />
ponder and reflect your own spiritual place. So, if you want<br />
something to make a mark and put a real punch in your<br />

Ten-O-One.<br />
“As an added incentive, we’re offering<br />
a free drink for the winner of the<br />
game. Come in and play darts or pool,<br />
enjoy our drink specials and let the<br />
best man or woman win,” adds<br />
Bledsoe. “We’re proud of the work<br />
we’ve put into Ten-O-One, and we’re<br />
always looking to take it to the next<br />

Historians report that the game of darts<br />
originated in medieval England,<br />
allegedly as a form of training in martial
arts. Archery instructors shortened arrows and students threw<br />
the shortened arrows at the bottom of empty wine barrels.<br />
Look at the bottom of a wine barrel and you will see the<br />
resemblance to today’s boards.<br />
In America, the game of darts goes back to the early 1600’s<br />
when the Pilgrims landed. It is reported that colonizers played<br />
darts on the Mayflower as it made its way across the sea.<br />
Like horseshoes, the game of darts has evolved over the years<br />
into a game of leisure and relaxation, both at home and in<br />
drinking establishments.<br />
The United Kingdom was the first country to recognize the<br />
game of darts as a standardized sport. Before World War II,<br />
most dartboards in pubs were made of wood, typically solid<br />
elm. The boards were soaked overnight to close holes made<br />
by dart throwers the night before. This was a sloppy business<br />
until someone designed a board made from sisal fibers. Sisal<br />
fibers from plants are traditionally used in making twine and<br />
rope. Small bundles of fibers were bundled together then<br />
compressed into a disk and held together with a metal ring.<br />
Today many dartboards are still made from sisal originating<br />
from East Africa, Brazil and China.<br />
A standard dartboard is 17 ¾ inches in diameter and divided<br />
into 20 radial sections. Sections are separated with thin metal<br />
wire. The thinner the wire the better, so your chances are<br />
greater the dart won’t hit wire and bounce off.<br />
Dartboards are typically hung so the bull’s eye is at eye-level<br />
for a six foot person, positioned about 5 ft 8 inches from the<br />
floor. The 20 numbered sections correlate to scores from 1 to<br />
20 points.<br />
Throwing darts come in a variety of styles and weights, with<br />
most made from wood, brass, nickel-silver and tungsten.<br />
Which type you choose to use is a personal choice. You<br />
should use whatever feels good to you. Here is a website that<br />
identifies the different types and provides good tips on buying<br />
darts: http://www.crowsdarts.com/.<br />
There are many variations of the game of darts, and some<br />
rules are a bit complicated for casual players. However, there<br />
are books and websites where you can learn more. One book<br />
that receives good reviews on Amazon is The American Darts<br />
Organization Book of Darts by Chris Carey. Carey teaches<br />
you how to select a board and darts, and discusses topics like<br />
setup, accessories, lighting and safety. He also explains how<br />
to play and gives advice on improving your game if you are<br />
experienced. Another book with good reviews that explains<br />
fundamentals of the dart stance, grip and throw is The Art of<br />
Darts by John Lowe. Lowe’s book is also available on<br />
Amazon.com or by special order from local bookstores.<br />
There are also about a dozen helpful “How to play darts”<br />
YouTube videos you can view at http://youtube.com. Use the<br />

<strong>October</strong> <strong>2010</strong> / 99
Instead of waiting until next<br />
spring to clean and get<br />
organized, do it now and get<br />
it over with! Here are just a<br />
few helpful tips to help you<br />
get your life (and your<br />
house) organized.<br />
• When you plan to go<br />
shopping, clean out your<br />
closet first. A good rule of<br />
thumb would be to get rid of<br />
as many things as you buy (at<br />
least). If you go shopping for<br />
some winter clothes and you<br />
buy 10 items, find at least 10<br />
items in your closet to take to<br />
a consignment shop. You<br />
may be thinking, “But I don’t<br />
have 10 things in my closet<br />
that I want to get rid of!” To<br />
this, I say, “YES, YOU DO!”<br />
If you haven’t worn<br />
something in the past year, it<br />
is time to get rid of it. If you<br />
are still having trouble, start<br />
trying things on and get rid<br />
of the clothes that are two<br />
sizes too small (or too big).<br />
Not only will this free up<br />
more closet space, it will also<br />
help you know what you<br />
actually need to get when you<br />
go shopping.<br />
• Clean out one drawer or<br />
cabinet a week. If you make<br />
this a priority, it can be done!<br />
If you are like me, you won’t<br />
100 / www.forsythwoman.com<br />
spread this out over a week,<br />
but instead will have the<br />
whole cabinet/drawer<br />
cleaned out the first day you<br />
begin. If you are thinking<br />
you do not have an hour to<br />
spend cleaning out an entire<br />
drawer at once, then split it<br />
up into 15 or 30 minute<br />
intervals over the course of<br />
a few days. It will be<br />
tempting, but try<br />
to put your<br />
ADD to rest<br />
and stick to<br />
one drawer at<br />
a time.<br />
• Get rid of<br />
the ugly<br />
handbag that<br />
your Aunt<br />
Cindy-Lou<br />
gave you for<br />
Christmas 3 years<br />
ago. For some reason,<br />
people like to hold on to<br />
birthday presents and<br />
Christmas presents, even if<br />
they know they will never<br />
use them! I promise, Aunt<br />
Cindy-Lou probably forgot<br />
that she even gave you that<br />
handbag, and she will never<br />
know that you got rid of it.<br />
I guarantee everyone has at<br />
least a few of these type<br />
items, and it will free up<br />
some highly needed space in<br />
By Brooke Johnson<br />
De-Clutter<br />
Your Life!<br />
If you<br />
haven’t worn<br />
something in<br />
the past year,<br />
it is time<br />
to get rid<br />
of it.<br />
your house if you simply get<br />
rid of them!<br />
• Use the calendar on your<br />
computer and/or cell<br />
phone. Not only is it<br />
environmentally friendly, but<br />
it saves you the hassle of<br />
keeping up with even more<br />
papers.<br />
• Go through the<br />
dreaded underwear/bra/sock<br />
drawers in<br />
your<br />
bedroom. I<br />
feel confident<br />
that you do<br />
not wear<br />
every single<br />
pair of<br />
underwear or<br />
socks, or every<br />
bra that is sitting in<br />
these drawers. In fact,<br />
I bet that a lot of these<br />
unworn items are sitting in<br />
the bottom of these drawers<br />
and haven’t been touched in<br />
months—or even years! This<br />
wouldn’t be too big of an<br />
issue, except for the fact that<br />
these drawers are<br />
overflowing! Every time you<br />
do laundry you have to<br />
carefully maneuver the clean<br />
laundry in these drawers, and<br />
the end result is that the<br />
drawers can barely squeeze<br />
shut.<br />
• Clean out your jewelry<br />
cabinet. I am embarrassed to<br />
admit that, until recently, I<br />
had tons of jewelry that I had<br />
had since I was in elementary<br />
school. I’m not talking about<br />
nice jewelry; I’m talking<br />
about $5 silver hoop earrings<br />
from Claire’s that didn’t even<br />
look silver anymore, and<br />
jewelry that was so ugly and<br />
unfashionable I would be<br />
mortified for anyone to even<br />
see it in my trashcan. I got rid<br />
of about 75% of the jewelry I<br />
had, and now when I go to<br />
find a piece to match my<br />
outfit, it is so much easier.<br />
Okay, that’s all I have, so get<br />
to organizing! And if you<br />
have any organization tips<br />
for our readers, go to our<br />

Fill in the grid so that every row, every column, and every 3x3 box contains the digits 1 through 9. That's all there is to it.<br />
There's no math involved. You solve the puzzle with reasoning and logic. Puzzles below are numbered by their levels, #1 being<br />

Givens on<br />
1That big bowl of candy you set outside your door with<br />
the sign, “Please Take One” won’t last past the first trick<br />
or treater.<br />
2Your child will HAVE TO BE the Red Howling Werewolf<br />
Ninja Blaster for exactly as long as it takes to pay for the<br />
costume and then open it. He will then HAVE TO BE the<br />
Blue Toxic Alien Werewolf Blaster because all his friends are!<br />
3The scythe you paid 40 bucks for at the Halloween<br />
store is guaranteed to break on the walk through the<br />
parking lot (can anyone say duct tape?).<br />
4Your children’s taste in candy is EXACTLY the same as<br />
yours, prompting midnight visits to the candy bag for<br />
your daily sweet indulgence (but honestly, there are no<br />
calories in candy if no one SEES you eat it).<br />
5Do kids really eat the popcorn balls? Maybe that’s<br />
why some houses give them out, KNOWING they’re<br />
feeding the local wildlife as they are tossed into the bushes<br />
upon leaving the house.<br />
6Sure, pencils are great educational items, but on<br />
Halloween?<br />
7You will run out of candy at the exact time the local<br />
church bus stops in the neighborhood and lets out some<br />
really SCARY looking trick or treaters!<br />
8What’s the maximum age for trick or treating? (Not<br />
counting, of course, the parents following the children and<br />
asking for leftovers at the door.)<br />
9If you buy candy you don’t like, it’s guaranteed to make it<br />
to Halloween night.<br />
Never, ever guess a little girl’s costume. You’ll end<br />
10with “No, it’s Princess Ariel in the Midnight Blue Sea<br />
Costume” as she runs away crying, followed by an upset<br />
parent with a duct taped princess staff that broke upon exit<br />
from the costume store.<br />

Halloween<br />
There is some sick<br />
11part in all parents<br />
that really enjoys scaring<br />
the pants off some children<br />
as they walk to the door!<br />
Tell me you haven’t done it!<br />
Halloween Costumes that were not a good idea:<br />
1A bunch of purple grapes, created by blowing up purple<br />
balloons…..a few well placed needles and oops!<br />
2The white shirt, white pants, red ski cap with a string<br />
coming out (you know what I mean).<br />
3The delivery boy who wore nothing but a pizza box<br />
around his middle.<br />
4Tuxedo shirt and jacket with boxer shorts – explanation:<br />
“I’m semi-formal.”<br />
5Guys, even if it sounds like a good idea, dressing in your<br />
wife’s old cheerleading costume is the WORST idea ever!<br />
6Any costume you spend the rest of the night<br />
EXPLAINING, e.g., “I am a Red Howling Werewolf<br />
Ninja Blaster because my son wouldn’t wear his costume.”
