3XEOLVKHUÂ·V 127( August brings a sense of change with it. Summer is almost over, which kids lament and parents cheer. That event, however, means shopping for school supplies and clothes. For those that graduated high school in May, it means the start of their new job, or new school, usually away from home for the first time. For those shopping for school supplies, donâ€™t forget to help out those less advantaged. The Fill the Bus campaign, which we covered this month, helps out those students that otherwise might start the year with no supplies. Please be sure to support them. I hope you have had a great summer so far and enjoyed some time with your family.

The Georgetown Area Junior Forum’s seventh annual “Fill the Bus” drive runs from August 8-10, 8am to 4pm, in the Walmart shopping center in Georgetown. Community members are encouraged to stop by the store that day and donate school supplies or cash. One hundred percent of the donations will go back to the Georgetown community

to help GISD students at all 18 campuses. Stephanie Blanck, Georgetown Area Junior Forum (GAJF) President, worked in Georgetown ISD for more than 25 years. She has personally seen demographics change in the school district. “At some campuses, with more than 70 percent of students coming from economically

disadvantaged households, we want to make sure that every student is prepared,” says Stephanie. “Every child should have a backpack with supplies on the first day of school in order to feel valued and be prepared for a successful school year.” Georgetown’s shifting demographics reflect the changing economy. “When I first started in the FRQWLQXHG RQ SDJH !!

Georgetown’s many nonprofits and local residents work together to make sure the community has what it needs to continue to grow in a happy and healthy way. GAJF’s “Fill the Bus” project chairperson Karen Young says, “People will stop by that don’t have two nickels to rub together, but even those families find a way to give.” This year, GAJF is reaching out to local businesses to partner with the campaign. Businesses can go to www. gajf.org to learn how to set up a donation box. The Junior Forum will supply a decorated box for the supply drive and pick the donated items up, if requested.

hen Alex Morales started Georgetown Diesel Transmission and Auto, he wanted to test the waters, unsure how great a need there was for a diesel repair shop. So he decided to open it in his back yard. “I first needed to understand the market demand to see if it would keep me afloat,” he explains. “I figured I’d have no more than one or two vehicles out back at a time, but it blew up quickly.” Thanks to the heavy demand, Alex quickly outgrew his backyard and opened his repair shop at 105 Halmar Cove, across from the Georgetown airport. Alex had worked at a dealership for 15 years prior to opening Georgetown Diesel, as well as several years at independent shops. “I wanted to give the community a master certified repair

$XJXVW _ )RFXV RQ *HRUJHWRZQ

option for their diesel-powered vehicles other than relying on a dealer, which is often much more expensive, and can take longer,” he says. According to Alex, most people think they can only go to dealers because diesel engines are more advanced and must be repaired by those who have specific expertise. However, Georgetown Diesel now offers an alternative, able to diagnose and repair diesels as well as offering upgraded parts and services the dealers don’t offer. Despite the extra cost to purchase and repair a diesel-powered vehicle, diesel lovers say these never-say-die engines have many qualities that make up for the expense. Advantages include: • It provides more torque, which offers more power. • Diesel engines have better fuel economy—20–30 percent over gaspowered vehicles.

• More longevity—diesel engines often run to 250,000 miles or more with proper maintenance. • They can be converted to bio-diesel, which is better for the environment. • They can be more easily modified for performance than a standard gasoline vehicle. Georgetown Diesel not only helps area residents avoid hefty dealer repairs, they also help those considering buying a diesel vehicle avoid mistakes. “A lot of people think they’ll buy a diesel and it will run forever, but when they don’t know the history or maintenance record, they are flying blind,” Alex says. “Our shop can do a multi-point inspection to advise for or against a

purchase because we can evaluate the vehicle’s condition and warn what repairs may be coming down the pike.” As well as working on diesel vehicles, Georgetown Diesel specializes in repairing and rebuilding transmissions for all makes and models. Unlike many shops, all transmission work is done in house, not subcontracted out. General automotive repairs are also available by appointment. For more information about Georgetown Diesel, call 512-943-4521.

Art, Creativity and Controversy will be presented by Claude Van Lingen, Adjunct Professor at Austin Community College, at the next Salon event on August 13, starting at 6:30. Learn how creativity and art have been limited as well as influenced throughout the ages. How and why has art survived? Discuss what pushes humans to express who they are through art. After the talk, there is plenty of time to ask questions and have a lively conversation. Timing for Augustâ€™s topic coincides perfectly with the opening of the Museumâ€™s exhibit, Form Follows Function: Artisans of Williamson County. Septemberâ€™s topic is on Chinese immigration and early immigration laws. Madeline Hsu, Associate Professor at the University of Texas, will be presenting. She teaches Asian American studies and also researches Chinese migration to North America, focusing on where immigration law and U.S. foreign policy intersect. Madeline also reports on race relations and other issues. This timely topic is sure to promote lots of conversation. The Salon meets in the banquet room of the Wildfire Restaurant on the second Wednesday of every month on a first come, first serve basis. Admission is free, and seats can fill up fast. Arriving early--say, at 6 PM--allows for time to claim a seat, order a drink or a bite to eat, and settle in for an evening of fun. Food and drink are provided by the Wildfire Restaurant on a pay-as-you-go basis, and meals can be pre-ordered for dining after the presentation. However, ordering food is not required. The intent is to sit back and have some fun while learning about entertaining topics. Speakers present for approximately 20â€“40 minutes, educating in a way that leads to spirited discussion. Ann Evans, Curator at the Williamson Museum, organizes the speakers at The Salon. She is always looking for interesting topics and individuals to present. Those with a topic to suggest should contact her at 512-943-3758 or aevans@williamsonmuseum.org. The Wildfire Restaurant is located at 812 S. Austin Ave, Georgetown, TX. Check out the Williamson Museum website, http://williamsonmuseum. org, under the â€œEventsâ€? tab for upcoming Salon speakers.

veryone knows that hearing deteriorates with age, but accepting this reality can be hard, which leads some to delay treatment. This is unwise. Beeping noises from backing trucks, honking horns, and screeching tires all tell listeners to be wary. Even someone yelling, â€œFire!â€? or â€œHelp!â€? alerts people to danger. Diminished hearing means cues to â€œact nowâ€? may be missed.

Inability to hear and understand those around them causes stress on relationships. Loved ones have to repeat themselves. Phones arenâ€™t answered, TV is too loud, door bells and alarm clocks are missed. Communication with those close to you and with the outside world disappears. To remedy these problems, hearing must first be tested. While

many places offer this service, â€œour hearing tests are always free, and we always let patients have a copy of their audiogram to take with them for their records,â€? says Karen Block, a Hearing Educator with Zounds Hearing. â€œIt is important to keep track of your hearing loss.â€? Buying a hearing aid is usually the next step, but it isnâ€™t a magical cure all. If they arenâ€™t worn, they wonâ€™t work! As Paul Dicks, president of Zounds, says, â€œMost hearing aids only hear sounds clearly out to 6,000 hertz. Make sure you research carefully to ensure the aid you choose has the ability to reach out to 8,000 hertz for clarity of sound and has the ability to cancel out background noise like our patented Intuitive Noise Cancellation, which has been proven to eliminate up to 90 percent of background noise. This allows the wearer to hear and understand better in crowds.â€? Also, consider maintenance. Some aids require long delays for repair, or need new batteries often. Karen says, â€œZounds aids have fully rechargeable batteries, which allow them to run all day, and if repairs are needed, they are either done in store while you wait or we give you a replacement hearing aid immediately and send the old one off to be repaired.â€? It may feel frustrating to need hearing aids, but they are instrumental for safety and communication. Choose carefully to ensure that money is spent well on a quality hearing aid that will actually be used. For more information about Zounds and the Zounds hearing aids, call 512-863-4333, or visit their store at 105 Wildwood Drive, #212. They have spectacular summer specials running ($2,000 off on one model!), but they only run through August. Be sure to drop by soon and set up your appointment.

efense wins championships! That applies to both sports and managing personal finances. This article focuses on the defensive money management technique of tracking and lowering current expenditures. When it comes to personal finance, some people say, â€œI do not know where it all goes!â€? One study showed that in America, 40 percent of individuals live paycheck to paycheck. Other research states that over 50 percent of Americans say they spend more than they earn monthly. These statistics are alarming. One of the best defensive financial management techniques is the use of a spreadsheet to track all monthly household expenses. Start with last monthâ€™s bills and then, using bank statements, checkbooks, and other records, gather the last 12 months of expenses. Develop the spreadsheet with columns identifying each month, then add a total, an average, and a

â€œrankâ€? column. On each row, list expense categories such as: mortgage or rent expense; insurances; taxes; car(s); utilities; entertainment; and all other expenses. After this tracker is established, one must have the discipline to log all of this important financial information each month. Once a yearâ€™s worth of data is collected, total each row and calculate the average monthly expenses by category. Rank each category from #1, the highest monthly expense, to #N, the lowest of all the expenses. Finally, add up the total column to find the overall dollars used to run the home for one year. Why put so much effort into tracking this information? There are several significant benefits. Knowing the total household expense needed, one can calculate the targeted emergency fund amount. Retirement needs (target) can be calculated based on current needs. Leveraging historical expense information, a

spending plan or budget can be built. Finally, by reviewing each expense, one can eliminate or reduce household expenses. How can household expenses be reduced? Look at the last column on the spreadsheet, starting with the expense category ranked #1, and consider whether each expense can be reduced somehow. Be creative, here. All expenses can be reduced, so focus on actions to make that happen, and pursue those reductions. Practice this with the highest expense, and go down the list in ranked order, attempting to reduce everything. After finding some savings, use them to pay off all nonmortgage debt, and then send the rest of those dollars to the retirement fund. When your sixtieth, sixty-fifth, or seventieth birthday arrives, the effort will pay off! 7KH &RDFKÂ˛'DYLG * *LHVH %XVLQHVV 3HUVRQDO &RDFKLQJ 'DYLGJJLHVH FRP

hile it is no secret that Georgetown is unusually blessed with interesting people, often the stories of these citizens are hidden to all but a few. From an office on the square, Todd White runs a photography studio, where he prides himself on exposing the stories of his subjects through the visual arts. Todd traces his love of photography back several decades, to the pre-digital world of the 1980s. Learning on filmâ€”which Todd still uses to this dayâ€”gave Todd a sophisticated understanding of light in his compositions and helped provide the foundation for what is proving to be a most distinguished career. Make that second career. Before making the leap to full-time photography three years ago, Todd had been a Cisco engineer for more than 26 years. Photography, however, had always been Toddâ€™s passion; one that grew during a month-long trip to India, where he developed an interest in portraiture and a documentary style that revealed the vibrancy of life in his subjects. When Todd made the decision to pursue his passion, weddings, portraits, and commercial work comprised the bulk of his portfolio, but he still applied that same documentary style inspired by his humanitarian visits to India as well as Egypt, Honduras, and other

$XJXVW _ )RFXV RQ *HRUJHWRZQ

countries. Todd says that one of the greatest compliments he received was that he captured moments of a wedding that the participants didnâ€™t even realize were happening at the time. Two years ago, Todd had the opportunity to shoot with Carrie Underwood for People magazine, and he has since covered a number of other musicians and live events, including Florida Georgia Line, George Strait, and Miranda Lambert. Todd also covers fashion in Austin, Dallas, and New York, and has provided photography to Google for Google Maps and Google Street View. Todd says, â€œPhotography is a diverse market, and you start out generalizing and you discover where your strongest interests and strengths are, and then you start to specialize a little bit.â€? The way most Central Texans have seen Toddâ€™s work is through the popular award-winning PBS show, The Daytripper. Todd first worked with show host and creator Chet Garner on a photo assignment for the nonprofit Boot Campaign organization. A working relationship grew into a friendship, and Todd started providing still photography for The Daytripper, then quickly moved into videography and producing. Now in its fifth season, Todd still works on The Daytripper, as

well as other projects under the mantle of Chetâ€™s production company. He will also apply his skills to Chetâ€™s new show, FoodFinder TX, set to premier this fall. FoodFinder TX will showcase iconic Texas foods that have grown in national popularity: craft beer, kolaches, and breakfast tacos, to name a few. Throughout his travels, Todd has never found anywhere that pulls at his heartstrings like Georgetown. â€œWhen my wife and I moved here 13 years ago, we fell in love with it,â€? Todd says. He enjoys being active in the community and being a part of helping Georgetown grow. â€œHaving an office on the square and participating in daily life here has been a great experience,â€? he says. As someone so clearly interested in the visual stories of the world around him, Todd White has perhaps revealed his own very interesting story. FRQWLQXHG RQ SDJH !!

t is said that one cannot return home. Among those who travel, there is a healthy lust for someplace special, one place that sticks out among the rest and is plainly the best. It suits the soul. Georgetown has that attraction for some. But after a decade and a half, Southern Williamson County has undergone a paradigm shift, one that represents a maturing of Central Texas as a whole. Williams Drive is a perfect case study for how life has changed in the better part of two decades. No longer is it just a farm road towards Andice. Now people can discover the wonders of all types of stores, filled strip malls, and even an HEB up as far as Shell Road. Now the drive is a central hub for Georgetown, a destination for shopping, but also for jobs, for

gathering, and for necessities. One used to travel up toward the lake and feel the distance measured in the lack of stoplights and the trees. Now traveling Williams is a testament to the modernity of Central Texas, showing off new subdivisions and houses left and right. Each house bears witness to the fact that this place is perfect for many people. The shift is not always for the better, though. The tiny ribbon of asphalt known as I-35 has become much more of a parking lot as one heads south. The wait time at Chuyâ€™s for some creamy jalapeĂąo seems to be extended, no matter what day of the week it is. Everything truly is bigger in Texas, but is there a need for auto repair facilities that take up more real estate than certain prestigious college campuses?

There is little doubt that change is inexorable and inexhaustible. But the saying that change is the spice of life is true. After wandering, returning to a place that is once again known as home is wonderful. Time away enables one to know comfort in what remains of the home from the past, but also to explore a new world born from the old, and have a new adventure in it. In essence, Georgetown has not changed its character over the years. Georgetown is still a great place to raise a family, and a great place to call home. For all itâ€™s changing, it still is a hamlet worth loving, worth the happiness that flows from pride. For now, Lake Georgetown beckons and maybe, just maybe, a stop at the new Whataburger on the way home.
