Last week, I was fortunate enough to partici-pate in a two-day journey of deep transfor-mative change at a workshop on Undoing Racism.The session, attended by 12 whites, 26 blacks, two Native Americans and one Latino, focusedonacomprehensiveexplorationof how racism shapes American institutions and how without our conscious understanding we are all perpetuating racism on an individual and systematic level.The class was facilitated by a multiracial team of trainers – a black woman, a white woman and a young black man - from the Greens-boro, N.C.-based Racial Equity Institute. Theiranti-racistorganizingexpertiseincludesyears with civil, labor and welfare rights struggles, educational, foster care, social ser-vice and health reform movements, as well as youth and grassroots community organizing.AmongtheparticipantswereatopexecutivewithPalmBeachCounty,apoliceofficer,asocial worker, and lots of teachers and a few administrators.Absentweretheelectedoffi-cials, judges, procurement managers and other decision makers from the public sector.The agenda-free workshop was people driven and we were able to engage in real conversa-tions around racism. We started our training with a discussion of why people are poor,

including an analysis of power in our society. The training offered a crucial historical con-textof howracehasbeenbuiltintheUnitedStates and of how it is used to maintain and perpetuatelawsandasystemthatbenefitspeopleof Europeandescentattheexpenseof other racial communities.The conversation took a twist on day two, when the trainers asked the white people “What do you like about being white?”Many admitted they’d never thought about the color of their skin — because they’d never had to.The responses included, privilege, power, access to opportunities, the ability to blend in, “less worry” and “seeing people who look like me.”Black participants had a different reaction when they were asked what they like about their race. The long list included beautiful, diversity, strong family, strong religious foun-dation, music and food. One woman said, “black men!” eliciting cheers and laughter from the group.Latinos championed their language, culture, pride, hair and skin.With that simple question, the trainers pushed participantstoexaminethemselvesandtheirracial identities — a key step toward correct-ing a disparity in the way people of different

races are treated in Florida’s child welfare, health care, criminal justice and education systems.As I penned this column a few days ago, I reached out to a few of my classmates to see their reactions after returning to work. Manysaidtheseminargavethemthefirsttrueunderstanding of systemic racism and its deep roots in our society. Several returned to their lives asking, “What can we, as white people, dotoaddressracisminourhomes,officesand communities?” They absolutely wanted to DO something. A few said they took more notice of the lack of people of color in their offices,theirboardsof directors,theirneigh-borhoods, and even their house parties. They are now noticing that policies and procedures, once thought of as benign, carried serious racist implications. Some of them are already making very premature and clumsy efforts to change what they saw around them.In the USA, this awareness is often clouded by a need for political correctness, inability to communicatedifficulttopics,andignorance.So why is our society like this today?The answer, the facilitators said, lies more than300yearsinthepast.In1691,aVirginialawdefinedforthefirsttime who was “white.” Only people who were white could be landowners.

That law — and many others like it — dic-tated who could have access to land, opportu-nities and resources.One woman, who is Native American and said she is perceived by others to be white, sobbed because she felt she didn’t have a racial identity.White participants said the training was eye-opening. They said they were upset and angry that the information had never been shared in school.To undo racism, one must understand what it is, how it started and why it was constructed in the historical development of our country. We also need to know what challenges there are, and how to deal with those challenges. Only then, can we interact humanely on the issue of racism.For us to make a difference in race relations in Palm Beach County, I strongly recommend we start with this two-day class. We won’t be certifiedchangeagentsuponcompletingthisseminar, but it will scratch the surface and create higher consciousness.Special thanks to School Board member Debra Robinson who made it possible for me to attend.C.

Friendships Are For KeepingOne of the greatest gifts humans can enjoy, whether we realize that or not, is some of thepeoplesurroundingus.Morespecifically,thefriendsthatfindtheirwayintoourhearts,there remaining for a long time, some even till death. We all have such people in our lives. But are we that to others as well?I never forget a book I read years ago, au-thored by a multi-millionaire, where he stated that his most valuable assets were not mon-etary in nature; they were, instead, the many friendships he had developed through the years. That was the Bank to which he returned continuously, not to deplete but, rather, to cultivate each of those assets.PsychologistEugeneKennedyaffirmsthat

“true friendship is the only thing that can really bear people up in a world in which it is impossible to predict what will go wrong next.”Inspiteof allhumanimperfections,having friends and being a friend relates to one of the greatest privileges and blessings available to all human creatures.In my travels to different parts of the world, I have found that the countries I have enjoyed the most are not necessarily those with majes-ticscenery,themostefficientpublictranspor-tation system, or with unforgettable historical monuments. Rather, it is those nations where new, meaningful friendships were established and continue to be maintained. What we need to recognize continuously

is that friendships, like any other human enterprise, require time and cultivation. They do not merely happen, all of a sudden. They usually are the result of hard work which may last years before reaching the desired level. It’s like a tender plant which requires our careful attention on a continuing basis. It is a developmental process requiring several stages through which it must travel. It also demands understanding concerning human nature, in the sense that people are different and will act and react differently in varied situations. Most importantly, perhaps, is that we become a friend to someone else not for what we can get out of that friendship but, rather, for what wecanbeanddoforanother.It’sonlyselfless

friendships which shall endure!Many years ago, before taking another trip to the Czech Republic, I wrote to someone in Prague who had become one of my best friends anywhere in the world. I inquired what he might desire for me to take along from the U.S.A. as a gift for him. In his reply, he indicated that he desired no gift other than my visit; “you are the best gift,” he wrote to me.Indeed, just as many persons have become true gifts to us, through their friendship, may we also be the best possible gift to many, as we befriend them by our own initiative, or simply respond to their own desire to have us as a friend to them.

Boca Raton Halts Use of Red-Light Cameras

No more will you get tickets at your house from turning at a red light too quickly. The City of Boca Raton has halted the use of its red light cameras within the city limits after legal challenges.Since the start of the red light camera program in Boca Raton, the city saw a drop of 80% in violations during that time, with less than 10% of those drivers receiving a second violation.

With the shutdown of the red light cam-eras, the enforcement of the laws will be taken up by Boca Raton Police Department, whosecitationswillhavehigherfinesandpoints charged against an offender’s license.Boca Raton joins local governments such as Palm Beach County, Hallandale Beach, Margate and Coral Springs in backing away from using such cameras to crack down on red-light runners.

Tri-Rail Expands Services in BocaA surge in growth of people taking the free shuttles at the Tri-Rail station in Boca Raton has led to the addition of a second shuttle that takes passengers to nearby officeparks,LynnUniversity,theTownCenter at Boca Raton and Boca Center.Afterthefirstshuttlewhichwasoftenover-packed and left people standing in the aisle wasdeemedinsufficient,asecondshuttlebegan running last month to alleviate some of the overcrowding.The addition of a new shuttle shows the growing demand for the free shuttles Tri-Rail offers at nine stations that take pas-sengers to other destinations — a corporate park, shopping center or downtown.AccordingtoTri-Rail,in2013,965,792

people boarded these mini-bus routes com-paredto1,034,309in2014.Muchof thatspike in ridership occurred in Boca Raton, DeerfieldBeachandFortLauderdale.The new Boca Raton shuttle comes because of funding Boca Raton received from the Florida Department of Transportation. The city transferred the money to Tri-Rail to run the new shuttle, which runs during morning and afternoon rush hours.In Boca Raton alone, the ridership rose from29,824in2013to32,127in2014,makingthecityrequesttheexpandedservice.The Tri-Rail shuttles are one of several shuttles run out of the station by either Tri-Rail or the City of Boca Raton.

Academy Offers Young People A Public Speaking Challenge

By Danielle C. ArmourThe South Florida Youth Speak Out! Ora-torical Contest is accepting applications for its March competition.The contest, sponsored by the Oratory Academyof SouthFlorida,willbeat3p.m.March 8 at the Spady Museum, NW 5th Ave. Delray Beach. Deadline for all entries isFeb.27.Contestants will speak on the theme, “Do-ing the right thing at the appropriate time – how to conduct yourself when approached by authority, in particular law enforcement and educators.” The academy selected the topic in light of the media attention around the country involving youth and law enforcement.“The students in the Oratory Academy de-cidedonthistopicfromaboutfive(other)topics,” said Robert Dodd, interim program manager for KOP Mentoring Network, which sponsors the Academy. “We felt this topicwouldbeatimelyonetoexplore.”Before the contest, Ruthnie Auguste, 16, had a passion for speaking. However, her experiencewaslimitedtoaddressingherclassmates, teachers, and her congregation.The 2014 contest winner did not allow her inexperiencetodeterherandhasamessageforherpeers:“If youwanttogetwhereyou want to be, you need competition,” said Auguste, a sophomore at Atlantic HighSchool.“It’sawaytofindoutwhatyou need to improve on. Start small with friends, teachers or a guidance counselor to gainconfidence.”Shestressedtheimportanceof findingsomeone who will be supportive yet truth-ful in their criticisms. Since her victory,

Auguste has matured from her knowledge andexperiencesthroughouttheprocess.“I’ve learned so much by just researching andfindingoutfactsaboutmysubjects.[Ithas] made me grow,” she said. “My mentor taught me how to talk to and in front of other people, and it actually changed my attitude about a lot, even how I talk to my parents.”She realized the way some youth speak to their parents - herself included- was at times disrespectful. She immediately apolo-gized to her parents and vowed to change her behavior. “Young people need to know how to de-liver in front of whatever audience, whether it be a large crowd or for an interview,” Dodd said. “They need to learn how to speak the English language acceptably. It will take them far.”Thecompetition,nowextendedtonon-members, is geared for students from elementarytohighschoolinfourdivisions:primary(k-2);intermediate(3-5);junior(6-8);andsenior(9-12).The Academy will provide weekly work-shops for interested students to practice their speeches for the competition. Forthenovicebetweenages7and17inter-ested in the oral arts, the Academy offers a training program, which includes monthly workshops to improve public speaking skills and develop young leaders. Students will demonstrate developed skills at local and state competitions.Professional coaches will prepare them for nextmonth’sspeakingopportunities.For more information or to register, call 561-665-0151.

Mardi Gras Fundraiser on Friday To Benefit Pine Grove

By Fred HamiltonStop by the Delray Elks Lodge on Friday night and you may be wondering if you’re in Delray Beach or if you’ve been transported to New Orleans. Mardi Gras was on Tuesday, but in the All-America City, the holiday New Orleans is known for will be celebrated a few days later, and locals know how to have just as much fun.The Delray Beach Initiative, a group of resi-dents who aim to enrich the lives of Delray’s youth, will use the event to raise a few dol-lars for a good cause.“We’re celebrating Mardi Gras and also do-ing a fundraiser to help complete Principal Joe Peccia’s mission of having an I-Pad for use by every kid at Pine Grove Elementary School,” said Chuck Halberg, one of the fundraiser’s organizers. “It’s easier to get people out on a Friday night for an event than on a Tuesday night.” Theeventwillbefrom7to10p.m.at265NE 4th Ave., Delray Beach.For$25,attendeeswillbeabletoeatalltheycan, including desserts, from some of Delray Beach’s best restaurants.

and helping one of our local schools,” said SteveMartel,alocalrealtorwithRE/MAXAdvantage Plus. “It’s going to be a whole lot of fun. It’s a great way to see the people of Delray Beach really out having as much fun as they can while supporting local kids.” All the money raised will go to buy I-Pads for the students.It’s an out of the ordinary party that’s here to stay, for a community that prides itself in helping a charitable cause, said Halberg, a general contractor and partner of Stuart & Shelby Development.Halberg, Martel and the Delray Beach Initia-tive are no strangers to Pine Grove and its struggles to succeed. The group last year organized a paint-up Pine Grove” day, where 10 local artists brightened up the school with a fresh coat of paint and landscaping after the students boosted the school’s ranking from a “D” grade to a “B” grade.They also helped raise money to send the school’s safety patrol squad to Washington D.C.forthefirsttimeinfiveyearsalongwith several other fundraising events. “These guys are so good to my kids,” Pec-cia, Jr., said. “They do some of the coolest things to raise awareness and help us.

The Boca Raton Theatre Guild Presents Tuesdays with MorrieThe Boca Raton Theatre Guild’s produc-tion of Tuesdays with Morrie will preview onFebruary27th,openSaturdaynightFebruary 28th, and run through March 15th at the Willow Theatre in Boca Raton’s Sugar Sand Park.Tuesdays with Morrie is columnist Mitch Albom’s moving, inspirational, and often humorous chronicle of the conversations he had with his former professor and men-tor Morrie Schwartz. Albom was a success-ful sports columnist for The Detroit Free Press; after catching Morrie on Nightline, Albom called him and the result was a se-ries of fourteen Tuesdays during which he learned there is more to life than reporting on Wimbledon tournaments and following the tabloids. Throughout their conversa-tions Schwartz, plagued with health com-plications, never lost his zest for teaching, learning, love, and above all, life.

Albom’s book spent 205 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list, sold over 14 million copies, has been translated into 41 languages, and became an Emmy-award winning television movie starring Jack Lem-on and Hank Azaria. In 2001 Albom col-laborated with playwright Jeffrey Hatcher to adapt his work for a very successful Off Broadway production.“I’m delighted to have to opportunity to direct this piece...” says director Genie Croft. “...To track the evolution of Mitch and Morrie’s relationship as they spend time together and rekindle a bond that turns intoonefinalclass–lessonsinhowtolive.Theirconversationsexploreacceptance,communication, love, openness, values, and lasting happiness. Throughout the play, as they continue to meet each Tuesday, Mitch’s character evolves as Morrie’s stories inspire him. Their conversations are supplemented

withlecturesandlifeexperiences,andin-terspersedwithflashbacksandallusionstocontemporary events.” “I had the pleasure of doing Tuesdays WithMorriefiveyearsagoattheGulfshorePlayhouse in Naples,” says actor Wayne LeGette, who is playing Mitch in the BRTG production. “I found Morrie’s compassion and courage to be almost saintly. It’s a story about an incredibly wise man that causes both Mitch and the audience to realize that there is no hurdle insurmountable if you approach it with kindness and always keep looking forward. One day, I can’t wait to play Morrie.”Howard Elfman, who plays Morrie Schwartz is equally enthusiastic. “When I read Tuesdays with Morrie I knew right then I had to do it,” he says.

Garlic Fest Still The Best Stinkin’ Party in Town

By Fred HamiltonIt was dubbed the “Best Stinkin’ Party in Town.”Andonewouldhavetolookhardtofindanother event with much aromatic fare and big-name bands than the recent Delray Beach Garlic Fest. Thesmellof garlicfilledtheairatthethree-day signature food and entertainment festival.“Everywhere you turned there was the sm-

ellof garlic in the air,” said Claudia Menino of Boca Raton.The festivities, at the Delray Beach Center for the Arts, include live entertainment, local artists, and crafters, and - of course - plenty of garlic-infused cuisine.“Where else could you go and get garlic ice-cream, garlic barbecue and ribs and garlic nachos,” Menino said. “I even saw garlic water.” Attendees also enjoyed the traditional

dishes like garlic pizza, and more creative itemslikegarlic-flavoredfunnelcake.New this year was the inaugural Student Cooking Competition where two local middle schools - magnet charter schools with specialized pre-culinary programs - competed against one another in a special showdown hosted by Pero Family Farms of Delray Beach.The highlight was the Garlic Chef Stadium where local chefs vied head-to-head to cre-ate the best dishes featuring garlic.The contestants were given a bin of mys-teryingredients:pig’sfeet,earsandhotdogs. Plus, the chef ’s had to choose odd-balls such as Froot Loops, vanilla ice cream, maple syrup and Gerber Graduates. About midway into the hour-long competition, the chefs faced a new twist- they were given bourbon and pork and beans to incorporate into their dishes. At least one of the items had to be in each dish. Five judges weighed the chef ’s three-course meals on taste, presentation, use of the mystery ingredient and garlic.In the end, two-time reigning champ Bruce Feingold eeked out a win by one point to become the third-time champion. “Wedidourbest,butIwasn’texpecting[towin],”saidFeingold,executivechef and

co-ownerof Dada,facedexecutivechef VictorMenesesof ElCamino.“AtfirstIsaw the pork and I thought, ‘cool.’ Then it settles in – trotters – uh, oh. But we were fortunate enough.”Feingold clenched bragging rights and $1,000,Meneseswon$500.Each year more than 500 volunteers from atleast10non-profitorganizationsdothemany behind-the-scene tasks to put on the festival, which is city’s signature and argu-ably most savory event.

“Above and Beyond”A Thrilling Documentary

You don’t have to be Jewish to be inspired by “Above and Beyond.” This is the story of some true American heroes who risked everything to defend the infant State of Israel in its infancy when the British with-drew from what had been Palestine in 1948.Director Roberta Grossman and writer Sophie Sartan interviewed about a dozen surviving American pilots who volunteered to create an air force to defend Israel from fiveArabnationsbentondestroyingit.The story begins on May 2, 1948. Lou Len-art and Coleman Goldstein are two of the firstpilotsinterviewed.BothwereWorldWar II veterans. Goldstein recalls all Israel had in the way of air power was a few Piper Cubs capable of lobbing Molotov cocktails. Leon Frankel, a U.S. Navy veteran, recalled theanti-SemitisminAmericatypifiedbytheinfamous Father Coughlin. George Lichter, USAF, admits he “didn’t like being a Jew.”“Above and Beyond” is a classic David vs, Goliathstoryof ahandfulof flyers,notallAmerican and not all Jewish, who fought against incredible odds to defend the Israe-lis, surrounded on all sides by hostility. The problems began when the United Nations partitionedPalestineinFebruaryof 1947.Israel accepted the terms. The Arab nations did not.Asarmedforcesveterans,theflierswere

able to buy surplus U.S. planes and equip-ment. Just getting to Israel was a chal-lenge. The veterans took a circuitous route through Panama and thence to Brazil, Casa-blanca,Rome,andfinallyCzechoslovakia,which was the only country in the world willing to sell airplanes to the defenders. Ironically they were Messerschmitt ME-109 fighterplanes,flownbyGermanyinWorldWar II. The planes “required some assem-bly.” They were repainted with the Star of Davidaddedforidentification.ThefirstcasualtywasnotAmericanandnotJewish.HewasCanadianflyingaceGeorge “Buzz” Buerling, killed in a crash duringatestflight.Thenmengavethem-selves a 50-50 chance of survival.

Planning for Retirement In Stages

There are several considerations that ap-ply for retirement planning if you break it down by the amount of time you have left until you retire.If you have at least ten years to go until retiring, you still have the advantage of time on your side. With more than ten years to invest, you might be able to afford to take on a little bit more risk with your invest-ments. While equities have an inherent risk of losing money, they also have a history of providingsignificantreturnsoveralongpe-riod of time. Remember, past performance is no guarantee of future results.Probably the biggest advantage of getting anearlystartisthebenefitof compoundingearnings. Based on the investments in your retirement portfolio, the money you put in has the potential to earn more money for you – whether through interest payments, dividends, or other means of growth. In many cases, those earnings can be rein-vested, further enhancing the total value of your savings.If your retirement is less than ten years

away, it’s time to start making subtle adjust-mentstoyourinvestmentmix.Hopefully,you are taking a look at how your invest-ments are allocated and making sure they appropriately match your risk tolerance, investment objectives and time horizon. Because you have less time to work with, you still want to have some investments that offer growth, and also look at preservation of principalthroughfixedincomealterna-tives such as bonds, which may provide a little more stability in your portfolio and help reduce your overall risk.Finally, when ready to retire, you will be looking to maintain income from your investments and likely begin taking distri-butions from them to pay for your day-to-dayexpenses.Athoroughreviewof yourinvestments will help you clearly see how much you have saved.Financial preparation for retirement is dif-ferent for every individual. Take time now to assess your own situation and see what you can do to make sure you’re ready when it’s time for you to retire.

Rooted TogetherFor Strength

Ihaveneverseenfirsthandthehugesequoia trees, also known as California red-woods, which grow in the western United States. However, I recently learned about a characteristic of these trees that contributes not only to their incredible height but also totheirextraordinarylongevity.These trees have been known to grow well over300feettall(notincludingtheirrootsystem),upto26feetindiameter,andmany have lived well beyond 1,000 years. To what do scientists attribute their amazing size, durability and lifespan? One of the most important factors, I discovered, is their root system. Sequoia trees intertwine their roots with other sequoias, enabling them to share strength and resources neces-sary for their growth and health. They are better equipped for enduring adversity as well.What if we were to function more like sequoias in the business and professional world? There is a tendency to emphasize independence and individual achievement. Wehearaboutthe“risingstar”intheofficeor company, the person that stands out for exceptionalperformance.Thereisnothingwrong with recognizing those that stand out, but a reality in nature and everyday life is in virtually every instance, we can accom-plish more together than we can in operat-ing by ourselves.Despite mantras such as “it is all about me” and “I did it my way,” there is something very gratifying and rewarding about work-ing together as a team, complementing one another with our respective strengths and abilities, and offsetting our weaknesses. Ev-ery visionary leader needs good administra-tive and clerical people to accomplish their objectives. Idea people need skilled com-municators to convey their ideas effectively. Accomplished sales people would be of no

value without the capable staff poised to make the products they sell.The Bible emphasizes this principle of pooling resources and mutual strength for a greater outcome. Here is a sampling of what it says about working together for the common good, much as huge sequoias mergetheirrootsystemstomaximizetheirgrowth:Joining together to provide needed sup-port. We need each other. Isolation and insistence on operating independently can ultimately lead to discouragement and lack of motivation. “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, butletusencourageoneanother”(He-brews10:24-25).Sharing resources for mutual benefit. In a competitive world we are tempted to seek ourownadvantage,attimesattheexpenseof others. But short-term gains can result in long-term losses. Working together, sharing assets and strengths, can lead to substan-tiallygreaterbenefitsforall.“Anddonotforget to do good and to share with others, forwithsuchsacrificesGodispleased”(Hebrews13:16).Teaming up to achieve greater results. There is much to be said about the syn-ergy of people working in concert, united around a common sense of mission, vision and values. They can accomplish great things together that they could only dream about independently.“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work. If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up?… Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quicklybroken”(Ecclesiastes4:9-12).

In just two short years, The Whispers of the Fallen series is on its way to becoming a Young Adult Fantasy phenomenon, captivating readers worldwide.

Netto an-nounced the title for the third installment of the series. The Gathering of Shadows is scheduledtobereleasedonOctober31st,2015 under Untreed Reads Publishing.With promotion for the third book well underway, three well-respected musicians have joined The Whispers of the Fallen team. The emotions and struggles represented in the series will now be translated into song, which willbefeaturedontheofficialTheGatheringof Shadows trailer. The musical composi-tion will be entitled “Here in the Shadows.” The all-star cast features Dave Eggar, Chuck Palmer, and Dina Fanai. The author, J.D. Netto, will also join the epic production.“I feel both challenged and inspired,” says Netto. “Music is such a powerful vehicle when it comes to evoking emotion.”A musical prodigy as a child, Eggar began playing the cello and piano at age three, performed on Broadway and with the Met-ropolitan Opera at age seven, and debuted at Carnegie Hall at age 15. He is a graduate of Harvard University and the Julliard School’s Doctoral Program.“I am so honored to be working with J.D. Netto on this fantastic project,” says Eggar, who has performed and recorded with artists in numerous genres including Evanescence, The Who, Michael Brecker, Phillip Phillips, Josh Groban, Coldplay, and Beyonce, to name a few. “In his novels, J.D. has created a world

of profound mystery, intrigue, adventure and drama.Itwillbesoexcitingtocapturethisworld in music and to create with such a phe-nomenal team of top notch collaborators!”His list of awards and accomplishments includes accolades from Time Magazine, ASCAP, the National Endowment for the Arts, Sony Records Elevated Standards Award in classical music, the Geraldine Dodge & Leonard Bernstein Foundations, and at 15 was the youngest winner in the history of the Art-ists International Competition.Also part of the team is composer, producer, percussionist Chuck Palmer. The Ohio na-tive has performed and recorded with artists including Frank Ocean, John Patitucci, Phillip Phillips, and Amy Lee of Evanescence. “I’mextremelyhonoredtobeapartof thisteam,” says Palmer, who co-produced Dave Eggar’s GRAMMY-nominated release “Kings-ton Morning”. “We are, in a sense, scoring J.D.’sworkasonemightscoreafilm.It’sveryexciting.”Also part of the team is vocalist, songwriter, original composer and singer with the multi-platinum selling arena rock band Trans-Siberi-an Orchestra, Dina Fanai.“I am thrilled to be part of this breathtaking projectandexcitedtodelveintocreatingamusical dimension for this dark and beauti-fully evocative world that JD has created,” expressedFanai,whomhasbeentherecipientof numerous grants and awards from The Songwriter’s Hall of Fame and National En-dowment for the Arts.“I am very proud to be working with such talented musicians,” concluded Netto about the cast that came together to bring the music together. “This song will truly capture the es-senceof thebooksandwilldefinitelytakethereader on an inspiring journey.”

‘Super Human’ Fish Oil!Ivy league physicians affiliated with

Yale University believe their patented 4:1ratio of EPA/DHA omega-3s are the fu-ture of fatty-acid therapy and deliver al-most ‘super human’ results.

Prevention Pharmaceuticals, the makersof Omax3® Ultra PureTM, have decided togiveaway 1,000 boxes in a massive initia-tive to get consumers to try it.

“We believe one dose of this high per-formance 1.5g of omega-3 will changeyour opinion of fish oil with the dramaticresults,” says Terry Tormey, CEO of Pre-vention Pharmaceuticals.

Ultra Pure Formula EqualsSafety

Some supplements may contain morethan just omega-3. And some of that"extra" content you could do without,such as saturated fats, including un-wanted omega-6 fatty acids, and toxinslike mercury, lead, and PCBs commonlyfound in fish.

Freezer Test Proves PurityOmax3® was shown in lab tests to be 91%

pure, free of bad fats and toxins. You canprove this by freezing your own fish oil. Puta pill of your store bought brand of omega-3 in the freezer overnight. Then put Omax3®

Ultra PureTM in the freezer overnight.

The difference is clear. The storebought brand will be cloudy, even a solidwhite. This is caused by the bad fats andtoxins solidifying, which your body does-n’t need. Omax3® will remain clear, whichequals safety and effectiveness.

Fewer Pills Better ResultsThe patented delivery system gives

you 1.5g per serving in just two easy toswallow liquid gel capsules, compared tothe 6-12 you would need to take of astore bought formula. This means fewerpills equals greater results, you can feel.

Pharmaceutical StrengthYou now get the extreme health benefits

you deserve and at the lowest possibleprice and without the fish burps! If you’reworried about cholesterol, painful joints,

poor memory, or mood swings, this formulawill help or you don’t pay for it.

geon I stand behindthe breakthrough of the 4:1 ratio of EPA/DHA that makes up Omax3®.It’s simply the mosteffective. The phar-maceutically-acti-
