Obituaries

Steve Jobs, who died on October 5 at the age of 56, was the visionary co-founder, and later chief executive, of Apple, mak-ers of the Macintosh com-puter, the iMac, the iPod, iPad, and iPhone, and the man behind the astonish-ing success of the comput-er animation firm Pixar, makers of Toy Story and Finding Nemo; in con-sequence he did more to determine what films we watch, how we listen to music, and how we work and play than any other person on the planet.

Jobs never designed a computer in his life, but it was because of him that Apple products, even when they do largely what other products do, are perceived to be different and infinite-ly more cool. The Macin-tosh introduced the world to the computer mouse; the iPod became famous for its click wheel, and the iPhone for its "user-interface" – a sophisticated touch-screen that responds to the flick of a finger.

Jobs emphasized the difference between Macs and the PCs that ran Mi-crosoft software, manag-ing to preserve Apple's image as a plucky, cre-ative, insurgent against the bland Microsoft behe-moth even as Apple itself became the biggest com-pany on the planet. "I wish Bill Gates well," he once claimed. "I only wish that at some time in his life he had dropped acid or spent time at an ashram."

It was a marketing trick that Jobs worked on consumers too, convinc-ing them that purchasing

Co-Founder of Apple Inc, Dies at Age 56

Apple products somehow conferred membership of an exclusive and vision-ary club, even when it was transparently obvious that the company's devices were utterly ubiquitous. This corporate reputation for seer-like trailblazing lay completely with Jobs. "I skate to where the puck is going to be," he ex-plained, using an ice hock-ey metaphor, "not where it has been."

The Jobs story – hum-ble birth, rise and fall, mi-raculous comeback proved that the American Dream is alive and well.

BOCA RATON – Flor-ida Atlantic University will host the “50 on the 50” black-tie gala Satur-day, October 29, at 6:30 p.m. in the tower of the new, 30,000-seat football stadium on FAU’s Boca Raton campus.

This golden anniver-sary event will span three levels of the Stadium Tower and Plaza. Each area will feature a differ-ent theme, including the beach resort-themed Pla-za, the “Copacabana” Club on the Delray Hyundai Priority Club Level, the jazz-themed Delray Acura Premier Club Level and the American Bistro on the Suite Level.

“This will truly be a night to remember,” said FAU President Mary Jane Saunders. “We will reflect

on the university’s tremen-dous growth over the past half-century as we also look forward to charting its course for the next 50 years.”

Highlights of the gala include a “half-time” show on the field; a silent auc-tion featuring rounds of golf, tickets to local at-tractions, computers, gift cards and opportunities to see FAU’s 50th Anniver-sary Book brought to life through a video presenta-tion.

While providing an op-portunity for the universi-ty’s friends and supporters to join in the celebration, the gala also serves as a fundraiser for the Presi-dent’s Scholarship Chal-lenge, a gift-matching fund established by Saun-ders and members of the

FAU Foundation Board of Directors in 2010.

Recognizing the chal-lenges students face in furthering their education, Saunders created the fund with a personal pledge of $50,000. Annual gifts des-ignated to FAU student scholarships are matched dollar for dollar through this program. More than $200,000 has been raised so far, and 61 students have been awarded schol-arships this year.

With the proceeds from the gala going to-ward the President's Scholarship Challenge, it is anticipated that many more scholarships will be awarded next year.

President’s Level spon-sors of the gala include Balfour Beatty Capital; Balfour Beatty Construc-

FAU to host “50 on the 50” anniversary gala at its new stadium

tion; Barnes & Noble; Chartwells; Dell Inc.; Christine E. Lynn – E.M. Lynn Foundation; Rich-ard and Barbara Schmidt – Schmidt Family Foun-dation; Harbor Branch Oceanographic Insti-tute Foundation, Inc and Wells Fargo.

FAU is celebrating its 50th anniversary through-out 2011 to commemorate

the year the university re-ceived initial funding from the Florida Legislature. The university opened its doors in 1964 as the fifth institution in Florida’s State University System. Through the years, faculty, staff, students and alumni have been building tra-ditions as the university has steadily advanced as a center of higher educa-

tion, meaningful research, artistic creativity and civic engagement.

Sponsorships for the gala are available at the $2,500, $5,000, $10,000 or $25,000 level. Tickets to the gala are priced at $250 per person. To become a sponsor or purchase in-dividual tickets, call 561-297-3010 or visit www.fau.edu/50th.

The Boca Raton Tribune COMMUNITY NEWS East/West Boca Raton, FL

BOCA RATON – Mary Ann and Harold Perper are known around Boca Raton for their gen-erosity.

Their most recent do-nation, $1 million to the Florence Fuller Child Development Centers (FFCDC), is the largest personal gift in the his-tory of the organization, said Peggy Henry, chair-man of the Board of Di-rectors for FFCDC.

‘The Perpers have been passionate donors in the advancement of FFCDC and it is an honor to dedi-cate our west campus student activity center in

their name,” said Henry. “They have truly made our community a much better place in which to live and work.”

The Perpers’ donation will serve as a lead gift to kick off a capital campaign to build a student activity center for FFCDC’s west campus in Boca Raton. Doug Paton, CEO added: “I want to express our sincere gratitude to Mr. and Mrs. Perper for this very generous gift. Their support will help us make significant enhancements to the west campus.

Harold Perper pointed out that "Mary Ann and

I would like to express our sincere admiration for the role the organization plays in educating and nurturing young children. It is our hope that this gift will act as a catalyst in at-tracting additional fund-ing for the project as it is so important that today's children have every op-portunity for a bright fu-ture."

Since the mid-1990s, the Perpers have been ded-icated to FFCDC, most notably in 2003, when the Perpers were instrumen-tal in the establishment of the first ever onsite health clinic to serve children

from disadvantaged fami-lies in the state of Florida.

Located on six acres west of 441 in Boca Ra-ton, FFCDC’s West Cam-pus includes buildings for infant and toddler care, preschool classrooms, a multipurpose room and administration offices.

Paton noted: "Our Board plans for this new building to be a first-class facility that will add a nec-essary ingredient in fur-ther developing our after school and summer camp programs. “

Celebrating 40 years, FFCDC’s mission is to make a positive difference

in the lives of young chil-dren from economically challenged families in the community. The centers provide quality childcare, early education, fam-ily support programs, and the only Head Start pre-school in Boca Raton.

FFCED prepares chil-

dren for a lifetime com-mitment to learning and social achievement, while empowering their families to build a brighter future.

BOCA RATON – Iden-tical twins Cari Kutno of Lake Worth and Dani Mofshin of Boca Raton, diagnosed with the BRCA breast and ovarian cancer gene, represent the im-portance of Think Pink Rocks’ education mission.

Cari and Dani consider themselves to be “previ-vors” and will share their story with 4,000 people at the fourth annual Think Pink Rocks concert Sat-urday, November 5th at the Mizner Park Amphi-theatre.

Think Pink Rocks, (www.thinkpinkrocks.com) a non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization dedicated to the early detection of breast cancer and aware-ness of the BRCA gene for breast and ovarian cancer, has reached many individuals with life-sav-ing information.

The twins, 39, both

have a harmful mutation of the BRCA 2 gene. As a preventative measure, they both had bilateral mastectomies with recon-struction in 2010 at Boca Raton Regional Hospital and a complete hysterec-tomy in 2011 as prophy-lactic surgery to prevent hereditary breast and ovarian cancer.

The twins’ mother, Su-san Shapiro of Boca Ra-ton, was first diagnosed with breast cancer. Their mother made several clas-sic mistakes before her diagnoses. She missed two mammograms and then, when she started to have symptoms, thought she had pulled a muscle in her armpit and waited a month before going to the doctor.

In retrospect, an in-dicator that Susan might have the BRCA 2 gene was that several of her

family members died of pancreatic cancer. A lead-ing website, cancer.org, states that harmful BRCA 2 mutations may increase the risk of pancreatic can-cer, stomach, gall bladder, bile duct cancer and mela-noma.

Susan was tested for the BRCA gene and found out she was positive, and then encouraged her twin daughters to be tested as well. After a double mas-tectomy with reconstruc-tion on January 7, 2011, Susan is now cancer free.

Also according to can-cer.org, a woman’s life-time risk of developing breast or ovarian cancer at an early age (before menopause) is greatly increased if she inher-its a harmful mutation in BRCA 1 or BRCA 2.

The twins both had their double mastectomy on the same day, Novem-

ber 30th, 2010 at Boca Raton Regional Hospi-tal and shared the same hospital room. On July 6, 2011 Cari and Dani underwent a complete hysterectomy Their hus-bands, Andrew Kutno and Howard Mofshin, were extremely supportive of each of their decisions to have a bilateral mastec-tomy with reconstruction and complete hysterec-tomy.

The twins said they are particularly apprecia-tive of their doctors': Dr. Marla Dudak (breast sur-geon) Dr. David Bogue (reconstruction sur-geon) and Suzanne Bos-tic (CNA), and Dr. Frank Cirisano (gynocolgical oncologist).

“This is where breast cancer prevention starts,” Cari Kutno said.

In 2004, at age 36, Stephanie Robin, a Boca

Twin breast cancer ‘previvors’ with BRCA gene will share story at Think Pink Rocks Concert

Identical twins Cari Kutno of Lake Worth and Dani Mofshin of Boca Raton with their mom, Susan Shapiro

Raton mother of two small children, was diag-nosed with stage II breast cancer. She tested posi-tive for the Breast Cancer Gene (BRCA) and under-went a double mastecto-my with reconstruction, a total hysterectomy and months of chemotherapy. The cancer returned to her lungs and is stage IV; she is receiving monthly treatment at Memorial Sloan- Kettering and the tumors have decreased in size by 90 percent.

She and her friends

Elizabeth Weprin, Kathy Fleishman and Amy Se-idman established Think Pink Rocks. Working with Steve Rifkind, chair-man of SRC Records/Universal, and producer Kelley Lee, this is the fourth year they have or-ganized the Think Pink Rocks concert to advo-cate for early detection of breast cancer, raise awareness of the BRCA gene for breast and ovar-ian cancer, and raise funds for breast cancer research charities.

MATT PINEDA

In my 63 years on this planet, I have tried to deal with tough situations by being jovial. I’ve found that humor usually gets me through the hardest of times.

But laughter is often a cheat. I found that out just a few days ago when I was lying in a bed at JFK Medical Center in Atlan-tis. The left side of my body cried with one of the severest of pains; one I knew well from experi-ence -- a kidney stone.

I’ve had them before. But this one burned its mark on me. The stone moved, effectively block-ing my left kidney, and not a darn thing that I or my doctors had done could move it from a treacherous spot.

The pain, the medica-tion and a long, lonely night in a hospital bed had brought me to this spot Monday morning. I lay there in a hospi-tal Johnny looking up at three doctors – my own physician and two urol-ogy specialists. It was pretty damn tense.

“I was hoping to get out of the hospital today,” I said vainly.

“No chance,” said one of the experts as he leaned over me. Then he said; “Mr. King, your kid-neys are shutting down.” I felt a hot dart move down my spine, a re-sponse to something that affected me deeply.

The medical experts agreed. This stone wasn’t going anywhere. And without surgery, it would damage the organ. Worse, the tests found two larger kidney stones on the right side which had not yet moved.”

Surgery was needed. Immediate surgery.

Within hours, my urologist was outside the door of my hospital room, garbed to lead an operation. The world became surrealistic. Sud-denly, I felt I was watch-ing a TV medical drama. If I thought that I was really involved, I think I might have freaked and run out of hospital.

Those who visited me during my hospital stay remarked on my calm appearance. Believe me, I wasn’t calm. A million thoughts were going through my head, none of them about my cur-

rent situation. All trying to pull my head to a more positive and leisure place.

My doctor’s voice broke the silence. “As soon as we get a transporter, we’re off,” he said in a gentle tone that helped calm me. And when I got into the transport bed, I was whisked off to the operating room, with a profusion of lights and ceiling tiles streaming in front of my eyes. It was all I could see. Tiles, lights, tiles, lights, tiles, lights. And then the big sign in red lettering: Sur-gical Area, Do Not Enter.

The team packed me up for the necessary op-eration. Even in my sur-real state of mind, I could see the professionalism of people poking at com-puter screens, thumbing through notebooks. All were dressed in blue uni-forms. On Star Trek, I thought, blue is the color of medical staff outfits.

I rattled off a list of answers to questions: al-lergies, past medical his-tory, family health trou-bles, had I eaten or drunk anything that day. The allergist was concerned that I had consumed a

small container of apple juice. Medication was added to my IV to com-pensate.

Soon. I was in the midst of an operating room. I was packed in, and a mask was put over my face – like that mask a nurse put over my face at Sturdy Hospital when I had my tonsils out at age 9. That was the last time I was admitted to the hospital.

Suddenly, silence. Then, the world opened slowly to an office area. My anesthetized brain was coming back to con-sciousness.

Then, a long day of recovery.

Come Tuesday morn-ing. The intense pain was going. One by one, my “medical team” came by and agreed it was time for me to go home. The right decision was made. The right operation was carried out.

It was time to move on, they all said. But never to forget that health must always be protected – and that life must always be the center of one’s atten-tion.

A hospital stay teaches us how incredibly fragile life is

THOUGHTS FROM THE PUBLISHER

Whoever is acquainted with the United States Postal Service knows of the excessive amount of “junk mail” which daily floods most American households. With the ad-vent of electronic mail, the same is also experi-enced by its subscribers. The advantage of the lat-ter is that with one click on your keyboard you can delete an unwanted mes-sage without needing to open it. Some e-mail pro-viders even take care of that for you, ahead of time, by diverting suspicious messages into the catego-ry known as “spam,” thus keeping unwanted e-mails from your inbox.

On the personal level, you can also be proactive in not permitting unsolicited, negative comments to af-fect you, or harsh responses which may be given to your inquiries, besides other un-edifying messages you need not store in your inner be-ing. That could contami-nate the stream flowing from your own heart to-ward others.

In your daily interac-tions with people, both those you know, as well as many who simply cross your path once, provide a whole assortment of mes-sages aimed at you. Some are written, others are vo-cally presented, besides many more which can be just as eloquent, albeit un-spoken: an evil stare, an unpleasant gesture, or any other non-verbal type of communication.

Your best posture to-wards all these is to delete them from your memory as quickly as they come, long before they take hold of you and adversely af-fect you by poisoning the emotional reservoir which should supply all you need for the real challenges of any of your days.

I’ve met several people who, unnecessarily, daily endure a rather miser-able existence because they hold on too tightly to grudges, resentments, and negative intimations which they allowed to lodge in their life. It may also relate to items they chose to in-

terpret in a negative way even if that was not the original intent of the mes-sage. Whichever form it may take, the consequenc-es are caustic for any life, often leading to illness, if not to death itself !

Something quite sad is what happens when people delete the positive mes-sages sent to be embraced and stored in the human heart and mind, to pro-vide the directives for var-ied, unexpected situations encountered in daily life. At the same time, healthy pronouncements intended for us to receive and retain, sometimes cannot occupy human minds on account of too much corrosive negativity already lodged in that space. Such items need to be deleted com-pletelyand never allowed to return!

In moments of chaos or times of tranquility, you can utilize the right stuff to keep you thriving while you reflect on what is good, while flushing out what-ever can be corrosive and injurious to your own life!

Messages to DeleteTimes go on, and sometime what

we learn can hurt usIt’s fall again and the

season is really just be-ginning. In a few months, The Boca Raton Tribune will celebrate its second anniversary. Hard to be-lieve and, let me tell you, it’s hard to make it hap-pen!

I will take advantage of the fact that my dear friend and our manag-ing editor Dale King is at home recovering from surgery and I will write more than he allows me to do on a weekly basis!

We are very proud of the newspaper we deliver to you every week, actu-ally, every day. We can’t forget our online edition! We are the only real Boca Raton newspaper. By that I mean we are the only newspaper that covers community news from east to west of Boca Ra-ton, and that is owned and operated by local people.

During my time as the publisher, I’ve learned a lot of new things and met a lot of new people. This makes me very happy be-cause we are focused on being your local news-paper, not just another newspaper that prints just to get ads and make money.

Do we have competi-tion? Yes and no. Nobody does what we do for our community. We are work-ing to establish a long term relationship with the readers and with the busi-

ness owners that support us. We want to be not only your closest neighbor but closest friend.

Our sales team is not here to “take your money” and go away, they are here to find a way to support your business the same way you support ours with ads. We are happy to report your business events, we are happy to let people know about your new improvement or about your new product that just arrived. Your ad is not only a block of print that you paid for, for us, having your ad in the pa-per means more. It means that you want to see your local newspaper alive and we appreciate that.

We are happy to see our paid mail subscription growing every week, we are thankful for all of you that support us that way.

But I need to be quite honest. Not all things I learned these past two years made me happy. Some hurt me deeply.

I learned that a lot of people, non-profit orga-nizations and business owners look at the paper as only a way to promote themselves. They don’t care about us; they don’t care about how much it costs to keep the paper alive. They don’t even know the difference be-tween us and some other newspapers out there. They keep sending us

press releases to make their business well known, and when we ask about ads, they say: “We don’t place ads at the newspa-pers.” Some say, “We don’t believe in local newspa-pers”. This is really awk-ward because if they don’t believe in newspapers, why do they send press releases to us?

If you like our news-paper and if you want us to keep doing what we are doing, I want to give you a challenge. Do you know how much a business card ad at the only real Boca Raton newspaper costs? $35. Do you think $35 per week is too much to support your local paper? If you think it’s worth it, let businesses know you would like to see them support our city newspa-per and keep it alive.

I know a lot of you ei-ther owns a business or is in charge of marketing in your business or organi-zation. I challenge you to give one of our advertis-ers a call and ask them if what I said about partner-ship and support is true or false. We will be here when someone from another state, another city comes and tries to put you out of business, to take your customers away. We will stand with you, we will support you. Nobody else will. Nobody can be proud to be local like we are.

We need your support!

Boca Raton, Fla. – Anna Rua donates Beanie Babies and other children’s toy col-lections to the Boca Raton Children’s Museum. Anna has been collecting Beanie Babies since they first came out 18 years ago and has more than 100 Babies.

A Beanie Baby is a stuffed animal made by Ty, Inc. in late 1993. Each toy is handmade and has an inner lining that is stuffed with plastic pellets (or “beans”) rather than con-ventional stuffing, giving Beanie Babies a flexible

feel. Nine Beanie Babies were released the first year, but there are now more than 500 different Babies in circulation.

Beanie Babies began to emerge as popular collect-ibles in 1995 and the com-pany continues to manufac-ture the toys today. Based on the sales and revenue of this toy, Ty Warner created an empire worth more than $6 billion.

Poppi Mercier, Ex-ecutive Director of the Children’s Museum, was delighted to receive the

donation as the Museum is getting ready for its holi-day season and they will be loved by the children at Breakfast with Santa.

“The first time I saw this Museum I was com-pletely blown away. The fact that there’s a wonder-ful place like this where children can come and in-teract is amazing,” Anna said. “I couldn’t do enough for the children and am just overwhelmed. I think the efforts of the ladies who run this Museum is extraordinary. ”

BOCA RATON – Boca Raton Fire Rescue Servic-es got a jump on Fire Pre-vention Week Oct. 3 when firefighters from Station # 2 on West Palmetto Park Road visited students and teachers at St. Paul Lu-theran School at 701 W. Palmetto Park Road in Boca Raton.

Firefighters spoke about fire safety, gave stu-

dents a tour of their state of the art fire truck and let them handle the hose just like a real firefighter.

This year the theme for Fire Prevention Week (Oct. 9-15) is “Protect Your Family from Fire”

Boca Raton Fire Res-cue Services wants you to know that fire safety is everyone’s responsibility. Students were reminded

to practice fire safety, ask their parents to test their smoke alarms, have in place and practice an es-cape plan and use battery operated lighting instead of candles.

Firefighters also talked about Stop, Drop and Roll, dialing 9-1-1 for an emer-gency, Know Two Ways Out and stay low under smoke.

Abrams hails addition of jobs in Palm Beach CountyBy County CommissionerSteven L. AbramsDistrict 4

It’s no secret that dur-ing the past two years, Florida’s and Palm Beach County’s economies have been among the hardest hit in the nation with un-employment rates ranging from one to three percent higher than the national average.

However, the latest sta-tistics show Palm Beach County’s unemployment rate for August 2011 was 11.0 percent – down 0.2 percentage points from the July 2011 rate of 11.2 per-cent – and a 1.3 percentage point decrease from the August 2010 rate of 12.3 percent.

I am pleased to report that I recently received some other good news from Palm Beach County Workforce Alliance – the county added 8,100 jobs over the last 12 months in categories that are key

components of our econo-my, and job openings have increased 12.6 percent compared to this same time last year.

As of August this year, the county experienced an over-the-year employment growth in numerous in-dustries including leisure and hospitality (+5,700 jobs), education and health services (+4,100 jobs), professional and business services (+1,700 jobs), other services (+400 jobs), transportation/warehous-ing (+300 jobs), and finan-cial activities (+100 jobs)

There also were 14,978 advertised job openings in Palm Beach County in Au-gust 2011, an increase of 1,671 jobs (+12.6 percent) from August 2010. Since bottoming out in Janu-ary 2009, there has been an increase in demand by approximately 5,301 job openings.

Palm Beach County Workforce Alliance is a nonprofit organization

chartered by the state that provides specialized free services to both employ-ers and jobseekers at three career centers located in West Palm Beach, Boca Ra-ton and Belle Glade. They have been instrumental in placing thousands of job-seekers from entry level to executive positions. In their most recent program year (July 2010 to June 2011), Workforce Alliance placed 12,771 area can-didates in jobs – a record number and a 19 percent increase compared to the previous year.

Workforce Alliance has an established track re-cord of high performance among the 24 regional workforce boards in Flor-ida, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce ranks Flor-ida no. 1 in the nation for its workforce and training programs in a recent an-nual evaluation. They re-main committed to educat-ing and training our local workforce, which is essen-

tial to the development of our local economy.

Some examples of the services provided by Workforce Alliance in-clude job search work-shops and training, career consulting, employers recruiting on-site, use of computers, phones and fax, and assistance for persons with disabilities and prior-ity service for U.S. military veterans. Complete infor-mation about these ser-vices is available at www.pbcalliance.com.

At the same time, the county’s Economic De-velopment Office (EDO) is working diligently in procuring new business to relocate to the area while providing other incentives for existing business to ex-pand and grow by provid-ing low-interest funding opportunities and/or tax incentives.

For example, a new or expanding business may apply for an economic ex-emption for improvements

to real property and/or tangible personal property not already on the county’s tax roll. There is also the state’s Enterprise Zone Program that offers eight different tax incentives for new and existing busi-nesses.

The EDO will also pro-vide assistance with local business owners and entre-preneurs in obtaining low interest rate loans through local, state and federal agencies. One example is Industrial Revenue Bonds (IRB), a program designed to finance business and industrial expansions for companies with strong credit. The bonds are is-sued by the county with principal, interest and oth-er costs of the bonds paid solely by the beneficiary company. IRBs finance up to 100 percent of the proj-ect costs, with loans up to $10 million available if the financing is tax exempt.

If you know someone who is looking for a job

and/or a business owner(s) looking to expand or relo-cate, please pass this infor-mation along.

Please contact me if I can be of assistance or if you have any comments and/or suggestions. I can be reached at [email protected] or in my office at 561-355-2204 (West Palm Beach) or 561-276-1220 (Delray Beach).

Also, please visit my website at http://www.pbcgov.com/countycom-missioners/district4/ for updates and links to coun-ty divisions and other gov-ernmental agencies.

Boca Police Safety Tip

Boca Raton Police Blotter

The Boca Raton Tribune MUNICIPAL East/West Boca Raton, FL

Q. Is it required to wear a helmet while operating or riding on a motorcycle?

A. No! Florida State Statute 316.211(3) (b) states that a person over 21 years of age may operate or ride upon a motorcycle without wearing protective head-gear securely fastened upon his or her head if that person is covered by an insurance policy providing for at least $10,000 in medical benefits for injuries in-curred as a result of a crash while operating or riding on a motorcycle.

Crime and safety questions are answered by offi-cers from the Crime Prevention Unit. For more infor-mation, visit www.BocaPolice.com.

County GOP Chairman Sid Dinerstein has named Cathy Brandenburg to serve as the Republican Party’s executive director.

“Cath has been a long-term member of the Re-publican Party family and brings years of political experience to the table,” said Dinerstein, “most notably as Jeff Atwater’s campaign manager dur-ing the hard fought Senate campaign in 2002.”

Brandenberg entered politics when she was elected a Republican Ex-ecutive Committee mem-ber in 1996 for the county GOP from her district. She was re-elected without opposition in 2000.

Also in 1996, she was assigned as the North County area leader for the Election Task Force, the Republican Party’s grass-roots organization. She was a founding member

of the Northern Palm Beach Republican Club in 1997 and has served on its board.

She is also a two-term board member of the Re-publican Party of Palm Beach County.

Brandenberg replaces Palm Beach County Re-publican Party Executive Director Greg Langowski who has been hired by U.S Senator Marco Rubio’s of-fice to be a regional direc-

tor in South Florida. “Although I’m sad to

lose Greg, I know this is a great opportunity for him, Senator Rubio and Palm Beach County,” said Din-erstein; “Moving forward, I’m confident that Cathy’s experience in political campaigning, strategy and management will play a key role in a smooth tran-sition for the county party as we face a dynamic and exciting election cycle.”

Boca Raton, FL – There were some scary moments just after 8:00 a.m. on Wednesday, when a 6 year old getting out of his grandfather’s car at the Verde Elementary School tripped and fell in

front of an approaching vehicle. The child was pinned under the vehicle until Boca Raton police officers arrived and with the assistance of a couple of bystanders, were able to lift the car while an-

other person pulled the child out.

Motor Officer Mike Daly, Officer Bruce Son-nenblick and Commu-nity Service Officer Er-nie Bucinskas were the first to arrive and quickly

worked together to lift the car just enough to rescue the trapped child. The child was taken to Delray Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

BOCA RATON -- The award-winning Boca Raton Community High School Drama Department will open its season with a rich-ly-staged production of “Auntie Mame,” by Jerome Lawrence and Robert Lee.

With a cast of more than 30 students in vibrant period costumes and sets, the show will run from November 3rd through 5th in the school’s Kathryn Lindgren Theatre.

With a gallery of mem-orable characters, Auntie Mame tells the hilarious story of an eccentric so-cialite who finds her mad-cap Manhattan lifestyle turned upside down when she is appointed guardian of her orphaned nephew.

Auntie Mame takes him on one whirlwind adventure after another, proving that “life is a ban-quet.” Highly successful in Broadway productions, in film versions, the play is based on the best-selling novel by Patrick Dennis.

“The irreverent Aun-tie Mame has touched the hearts and tickled the funny bones of audiences everywhere,” said Drama Department Director Mindy Clarke. “And our production is sure to en-tertain and delight all gen-erations today.”

Boca High’s Kathryn Lindgren Theatre is lo-cated at 1501 NW 15th Court, Boca Raton (just east of 1-95 and just south

of Glades Road, across from University Commons Shopping Center).

Show times are Thurs-day, Friday and Satur-day, November 3-5, 2011 at 7p.m., and a matinee on November 5 at 2 p.m. Tickets for open seating are $8 in advance and $12 at the door. The house opens thirty minutes prior to curtain. Group rates (for twenty or more) are avail-able on request for $7 each. This year, new VIP ad-vanced reserved seating is available at $15 per person, limited to 150 tickets per show. For more informa-tion, call (561) 338-1533 or visit www.bocadrama.com.

The Boca Raton Com-munity High School season’s second major production will be the popular Gersh-win musical, “Crazy for You.” It is scheduled for Thursday, Friday and Saturday, March 1-3, 2012 at 7 p.m., and Sat-urday and Sunday, March 3 & 4 at 2:00 p.m.

“Without the commu-nity’s generous support, Boca High’s drama pro-gram simply would not have the opportunity to be so successful,” said Clarke. “In addition to attending productions, our ‘Friends of the Arts’ program al-lows residents to contrib-ute to our department and be recognized in the pro-grams. We also invite local businesses to place ads in the programs.”

Night of Fun and Comedy

BOCA RATON – Boca Raton resident Charlotte Beasley has been on the move again, attending a recent presi-dential debate and meet-ing with Gov. Rick Scott and his family.

Earlier this year, Bea-sley invited the gover-nor’s mother, Esther, to attend a wedding in Georgia with her and her husband. The trio

spent time visiting area attractions as well as the wedding.

While at the presi-dential debate, Beasley met with other local candidates, including former State Rep. Adam Hasner, Republican can-didate for the seat now being held by U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson.

SPOTLIGHT

BOCA RATON – So-roptimist International of Boca Raton/Deerfield Beach chose four winners from a field of 22 nomi-nees Wednesday to receive the club’s “Women of Dis-tinction Award.”

Selections were an-nounced at the 38th Annu-al Awards Breakfast held at Boca West Country Club.

The club’s judges se-lected winners in three categories – healthcare,

professional and volun-teerism. A tie in the vol-unteer category resulted in four title holders.

Winning in the volun-teer category were Grace Shafir-Reiss and Lisa Parks King. Going home with the honors in the professional category was Samantha Vassallo and winner in the healthcare division was Jan Dymtrow.

A highlight of the early morning event that

drew a large crowd to the luxuriously decorated country club was the pre-sentation of the 2011 Life-time Achievement Award to Elaine Johnson Wold, who, with her husband, Keith, and since his death, has contributed to many local causes.

During the festivi-ties, Deputy Mayor Su-san Haynie presented the club with a proclamation on behalf of the city, and

ENTERTAINMENTBy Skip Sheffield

FOOD REVIEWBy Marc Kent

The Boca Raton Tribune B - BOCA LIFE & ARTS East/West Boca Raton, FL

It helped that I had seats right down front at Broward Center, where “Rain” continues through Oct. 16.

There is a reason “Rain” has been performing live nearly more than twice the length of the Beatles’ perfor-mance run, and that reason is attention to detail. There are plenty; perhaps too many Beatles, tribute bands around, but many of them are slipshod, second-rate im-itations. The guys in “Rain’ have really studied their sub-jects and their music.

The ringleader in this group is Joey Curatolo, who plays the role of Paul McCartney. Apart from the fact Curatolo plays right-handed, he is a dead ringer for the affable “cute Beatle.” Curatolo has been playing this role since the original Broadway debut

in 1998, and he shows no signs of disenchantment. In fact all four of the “Bea-tles” are members of the original Broadway cast.

Steve Landes does not look so much like John Lennon, but his voice is a dead ringer for the most acerbic, quotable Beatle.

Joe Bithorn is a bit hus-kier than the late George Harrison, but he resembles the lead guitarist and his riffs are echo perfect.

Drummer Ringo Starr is probably the easiest Beatles to play, because he doesn’t say too much. Mostly he smiles and makes peace signs, but Ralph Castelli’s drumbeat is rock-steady, like Ringo’s.

Add to this authentic costumes from early Bea-tles Hamburg, mid-Beatles Abbey Road, late mid-Bea-tles Sgt. Pepper and final

Beatles scruffy and au-thentic vintage guitars and Vox amps and you have a visual treat to go with the aural pleasure of guys who sound and act exactly like the Beatles.

These guys don’t waste time either, packing more than two-dozen tunes into a show enhanced by vintage commercials, car-toons and news clips.

I never got to see the Beatles live in concert. I have seen McCartney and Starr in separate concerts several times. As enjoyable as their concerts are, there is no substitute for the Beatles as a group. “Rain” is about as close as you are going to get at this point in time.

Tickets are $25.25-$65.25. Call 954-462-0222 or go to www.bro-wardcenter.org

“Rain” is one of those rare shows that is even more enjoyable on a

second viewing

“Rain” in the early Beatles mode.

Seating 40 plus at in-side and outside table, this 2 month old Mexican food style emporium is open from 8AM thru 9PM, Monday to Sunday.

Only a few steps from the beach at 891 East Palmetto Park Road in Boca Raton, it’s geared to beachgoers and surf-ers with an accent on the youth trade.

We sampled the Rock Hard Breakfast Menu consisting of scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, Mexican cheeses and – our choice – apple wood smoked bacon shredded beef, with veggies and

beans – in a burrito. Very tasty and quite filling.

Another winner was the Mahi Mahi Tacos Rock – delicious fish in-side 2 tacos with rice and cumin infused black beans and fresh lime.

Both soft and crispy quesadillas with Mexican cheeses, pico de gallo are served with sour cream or guacamole (great taste and texture) with your choice of classic cheese, shredded beef, steak, shredded pork or chicken or with veggies and beans.

As with the quesadil-las, burritos can be had with any of six ingredi-

ents to suit your fancy likewise, the nachos – in any of six versions are complete with melted queso and pico de gallo (or jalapenos) with sour cream or guacamole. All are made to order and all are fine to taste.

Salads, side dishes and both soft drinks and beers are listed to complete the menu, an added feature of weekly student specials promise a busy season.

For take out, call 561-393-TACO- be sure to try authentic, fresh Mexican food by the beach! Go and Enjoy!

Warning:No-Carb/Low-Carb Can Cause Serious Health Problems…

Can The Very Popular No-Carb/Low-Carb Diet Be OK For Some People? Or Is It An Unsafe Diet For Everyone? Well it could be for you, but only if you compensate for its weaknesses.

Balance in nutrition is the single most im-portant aspect and often the first to be discarded when dieting. With all the many trendy diets to-day, Americans are losing

the nutritional founda-tion essential for lifelong good health. We take our bodies on these roller-coaster diets, changing with each new trend and promise, leaving us in a state of chemical imbal-ance and forcing our di-gestion and metabolism to compensate when our usual nutritional sourc-es are removed. When there is balance, our sys-tems work efficiently to

process the foods we eat. With balance and ef-ficiency comes healthy weight maintenance.

Carbohydrates are not the villains they are be-ing made out to be! They are essential for digestion and metabolism; they are the best source of energy for all bodily functions, especially the brain and central nervous system. Carbohydrates help regu-late protein and fat me-

The Boca Raton Tribune B - BOCA LIFE & ARTS East/West Boca Raton, FL

tabolism, as fats require carbohydrates for their breakdown within the liv-er. Carbohydrates contain the same number of calo-ries per gram as protein (approximately 4 calories per gram) and less than one half the calories of fat (approximately 9 calo-ries per gram).

Unrefined, natural carbohydrate foods like grains, beans, fruits, and vegetables are the only food category not linked to any leading killer diseases. Research has shown that diets low in pure sugar -- one of the very real culprits -- and high in complex carbohy-drates have been shown to help many disorders.

Avoid the carbohy-drates that are “bad” carbs: the pure sugars and starches, the car-bohydrate foods lack-

ing in essential vitamins, minerals and fibers- the “empty calories." These carbs, found in starchy and sweet foods, when eaten in excess can crowd out essential nutrients in the diet. Concentrated sweets, such as cookies, cakes and candies should not exceed 10% of the daily total calories, yet it is estimated that today we consume as much as 25% of our calories in the form of sugar.

The National Research Council does not state a specific requirement in the diet, however most authorities agree that 55 to 60% of total calories should be from carbohy-drates. A minimum of 100 grams a day is ab-solutely essential, with 300 grams being ideal for most people. A person's metabolism, activity lev-

els, size and weight all determine the amount of carbohydrates the body needs. Complete removal of carbohydrates from a diet may produce keto-ses; these are toxic com-pounds that can cause a breakdown of essential body protein, brain dam-age, depression, apathy, and loss of energy. When protein is burned for en-ergy, as in low carb diets, the kidneys can be over-worked trying to quickly rid the body of toxins. It is necessary to consume large amounts of water to stabilize this condition. In balanced diets, fats are burned for energy from storage - not proteins – benefiting the entire body as these stores of fat produce energy more efficiently.

There are a few new restaurants in town – so what else is new?

It seems that every week another restaura-teur (or chain) opens a new fabulous restaurant or pub only to close within a year or two (sometimes shorter). Everyone raves about the food – and the openings are a grand affair – but then all too often the flame burns out too soon.

You could blame it on the recession (which is a real issue) but there are also a few things that can make or break a new res-taurant’s success. “It usu-ally comes down to giving people a good perception of value. And when I say value, it doesn’t just mean price – it’s about food qual-ity, portion size, ambience and service. After some-one pays the check, they ask themselves, ‘Did I get my money’s worth?’ If the answer is yes, then they are more likely to come back,” said Burt Rapoport, owner of Henry’s, Bogart’s Bar & Grille and Deck 84.

One new restaurant that seems to be on the right track is Philippe by Philippe Chow. This rather elegant hot haute Chinese restaurant has an upbeat interior in black, white and red with a comfy bar and private rooms that make you feel that Vegas thrill. Well known chef, Philippe Chow has perfected the art of Beijing-style cuisine without using MSG and other fillers.

And it seems to be working. Their New York location has garnered an endorsement from Zagat 2010 for Best Chinese Food and was named Best of the Best (2007) by New York

Eat, Drink and be Merry

Magazine for their Peking Duck. The restaurant is also backed by celebrity sports figures and is fre-quented by heavyweights such as Bill Clinton, Lady Gaga, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, Rupert Mur-doch, Rihanna, Jay Z and Beyonce.

Favorite dishes are Chicken Satay, Beijing chicken, Peking Duck, Pe-king Chicken and Green Prawns. And the best part is that the menu is lower priced than the Miami and New York locations. They have a three-course pre-fix meal for $29, from 4 to 6 Sunday to Thursday and happy hour every day from 4 to 6 with comple-mentary appetizers, half-price cocktails and free valet parking. Located at 200 East Palmetto Park (below the spiffy condo) you can find them at www.philippechow.com.

On the other side of the culinary and cultural spec-trum is a new restaurant in The Shops at Boca Center called The English Tap & Beer Garden. This casual, good vibe haunt is based on Las Vegas Todd English P.U.B. (Public Urban Bar). They serve 25 beers on tap, over 60 bottled beers from around the globe and a menu that ranges from shrimp cocktail to steak salad and everything in between – burgers, short ribs, turkey, chicken pot pie

and a host of seafood and sandwiches.

Their Happy Hour - from 4 to 7 daily - includes half price draft beer, wine (select liquors) and lus-cious appetizers at a special price. Check out the menu at www.theenglishtap.com.

Owner John Watson is pretty happy about his cool hot spot in Boca Ra-ton. “We know it’s the right time to bring an authentic beer garden to South Florida because we have the perfect outdoor/indoor location. We have delicious beers and full bar with great food in a casual outdoor space.”

Watson has a point. Ac-cording to Dennis Max, owner of Max’s Grille, price has become an issue with it comes to restaurant longevity. “Wealthy people have gotten more conser-vative in their spending; they’re trying not to be extravagant. You have to pay attention to every de-tail and work hard. You also have to understand where society is at and give it to them,” said Max, who is opening a new res-taurant in Deerfield Beach called Frank & Dino’s and one at the Regency Court in Boca called Assaggio Del Forno. Max contin-ues to tweak his menu (and his wine list) to cater to his fan’s needs.

It’s the season to be jol-ly – almost – so eat up.

Teen LifeThe Boca Raton Tribune

As China’s economy and international influence continue to grow, many are analyzing the similarities and differences between the United States and China. With China having all members of their In-ternational Mathematical Olympiad team place gold for ten different years (the second country to have that many all-members place gold is Russia at two) it should be questioned just what it is about the curriculum in schools in China that is making them appear superior to those in the United States. Though recent arguments have been made that the Chi-nese school system is su-perior, in reality there are both equal advantages and disadvantages to the Chi-

nese and American school systems.

The main difference be-tween students in China and students in the United States is that while stu-dents in China may fare better in mathematics, stu-dents in the United States are more well-rounded. Specifically, in the United States students generally take the five main courses of English, a foreign lan-guage, a social science, a science, and a mathemat-ics course, while students in China take the five core classes of mathematics, chemistry, physics, Chi-nese, and English. Conse-quently, Chinese schools are more mathematics and science oriented. More-over, though social science classes and other classes

common in the United States are offered in China, they are rarely taken and are offered simply as elec-tives.

Furthermore, schools in China greatly contrast with schools in the United States in the methodol-ogy they follow. Though schools in the United States stress unique thought-processes and individualism, schools in China focus more on rote memorization and fact-memorizing. Moreover, while test-taking does have high-value in schools in the United States, there is a much greater emphasis on the value of test-taking in schools in China. Stu-dents in China are trained from very early-on to be prepared for various tests

through extensive test prep in middle school, high school, and college entrance exams.

Though some might make the argument that schools in China should be considered superior to schools in the United States, the reality is actu-ally far from what might be expected. The main ad-vantage that schools in the United States provide is the wide range of classes that are offered, starting anywhere from psychol-ogy classes to economic classes. Consequently, stu-dents in the United States are able to experience a much wider array of in-terests and maximize their learning experience.

BOCA RATON – The Philippe by Philippe Chow restaurant made its official debut at 200 East Palmetto Park Road in Boca Raton with a recent red carpet opening.

The arrival of the world-famous haute Chi-nese dining concept marks an achievement for both Philippe Chow and the city of Boca Raton as the largest mega-status brand restaurant to premiere in the area.

“We’re taking Beijing-

style cooking to a new lev-el,” said Stratis Morfogen, CEO of Philippe Chow Restaurant Group. “Most people associate Chinese cooking with Cantonese cooking, which varies greatly from the layered flavors of Beijing-style cuisine. At Philippe, it’s all about the artistry of the dish and the immense detail that goes into the preparation. We’re ex-cited to offer an attractive new price point due to the favorable deal we received

from 200 East to occupy this location.”

Morfogen gutted the $5 million dollar III Forks interiors to create the sig-nature look of Philippe. The 9,000-square-foot, 500-seat restaurant offers five indoor dining rooms, including a private wine cellar and media room, outside patios and a spa-cious indoor/outdoor bar.

Executive Chef Philippe Chow brings the Palm Beach market its first taste of Beijing-

style cooking, known for its lightness and layered flavors without added MSG. Pricing at Philippe is substantially discount-ed, with signature dishes like Chicken Satay and Pe-king Duck for 35 percent less than other locations. The restaurant will offer its trademark handmade noodle show at the bar at 8:30 p.m. nightly.

The restaurant’s af-fordable price range and upscale status are expected to impact the local econo-

my by increasing traffic in the Palmetto Park area between Mizner Park and Royal Palm Place.

Philippe, which boasts a long list of celebrity fans including actors, musicians and dignitaries, drew famed personalities at the August 24 Grand Opening event, including CEO of Philippe Chow Restaurant Group, Stratis Morfogen, Executive Chef Philippe Chow, former Miami Heat player Alonzo Mourning and wife, Tracy, former Sacramento Kings

player Samuel Dalembert, and world-famous noodle artist Mr. Cheng.

Proceeds from the grand opening benefited St. Jude Children’s Re-search Hospital and the Connie J. Goodale Breast Cancer Foundation.

Celebrity partners for Philippe Boca include for-mer Pittsburgh Steeler Jerome Bettis, New York Knick Chauncey Billups, Denver Nugget Al Har-rington and Miami Heat player Alonzo Mourning.

The Boca Raton Tribune BUSINESS East/West Boca Raton, FL

Your challenge as a salesperson begins when your potential client says, “No.” To the seasoned sell-er, a “No” doesn’t necessar-ily mean that the buyer is not willing to buy. Rather, it often means that some-thing about the product/service, the way it has been presented, or the way it has not been presented, is causing the buyer to hesitate. Even experi-enced buyers find making decisions a difficult task. If some of the sale’s ele-ments are ambiguous in the buyer’s mind, it may be easier to say “No” and play it safe – basically people don’t like to make hasty decisions. Sometimes the best way for the buyer to find out if the seller’s in-formation is worthy is to challenge the seller, and the “No” response is often the best way to do it. “No” may mean many things. Here are some possible translations to the “No” re-sponse during a sales pre-sentation. The client may be telling you:

• “I need more informa-tion.”

• “You haven’t given me a good enough reason for buying. “

• “You haven’t solved my problem/s. “

• “You haven’t shown me the benefit/s.”

• “Your presentation has not addressed the per-

ceived value I am looking for.” Let’s look into the verbal dynamics involved in the sales presenta-tion and explore this is-sue further. When does “No” mean “No” and when does it mean “Yes”? How can the salesperson tell if the buyer is hinting they need more information or are simply not interested? The salesperson must never get disheartened when they hear the dread-ed “No”; instead he or she must listen carefully to what follows after it. If the client gives you an expla-nation for why they do not want to buy, then it typi-cally is safe to assume the buyer is giving the seller a chance to address that is-sue. Otherwise, why would the buyer even explain his or her decision? For exam-ple, suppose the client says the product’s delivery time is too late. In essence, he or she is telling the sales-person that if the product were delivered faster, he or she would consider buying the product. The client is giving the seller the op-portunity to arrange for quicker turnarounds and make the sale. If the cli-ent says boldly that they are not interested in the product, or has no need for it, then in most cases, the “No” likely means a “No”. This is a clear indication of the buyer’s polite desire

to end the sales presenta-tion. Carrying on with more information about the product will in most cases irritate the client and could possibly even sour the entire buyer-seller re-lationship. In this scenario the salesperson should ask if they can meet at a fu-ture time. If the response is still, “No” then the only thing the salesperson can do is to “Go” and leave the door open for another day by indicating that he or she appreciated the buyer tak-ing the time – leave with a good impression. You nev-er know what other prod-uct/service you will be selling in the future – you may have to see that buyer again. A polite goodbye is always in order. Although we find that relationship-based selling has made a strong comeback (it really never left us) – it is return-ing with different ground rules.

• First, the buyer and seller should be on the same page with the same objectives.

• Second, the relation-ship should be predicated on a long-tern timeframe in which both sides respect each other and trust one another.

• Third, objections will always be voiced in the buyer-seller relationship and the seller’s answers must be honest, accurate

and not adversarial.Fi-nally, we don’t subscribe to using tricky techniques in order to persuade buyers to make decisions. Clients today are more knowl-edgeable and sophisticated than many of their pre-decessors; do not expect them to fall for antiquated, phony pressure techniques and do something they are not comfortable doing. To-day, the emphasis should be on how they buy, why they buy, what motivates them, and finally can your prod-uct satisfy their needs? Al-though the seller should be cognizant of modern day (21st century) buyer be-havior, they should always be prepared to confidently and honestly answer buyer objections. Clients expect to have their objections addressed and resolved be-fore they consider making the buying decision; this will help turn a “No” into a “Yes.”Excerpts from the book, The Real World Guide to Selling & Management, Gerald J.

DIVORCE FLORIDA STYLEBy Mike Gora

By Michael H. Gora

Q: I own the home that I live in with my wife and our three children in Deerfield. I inherited it from my father. The home is free and clear, no mort-gage. We moved into the home five years ago.

We have been married for fifteen years. I sell fur-niture on commission to stores all over Florida, she is a school teacher, and we just make ends meet. We have no savings and no retirement, al-though I have an account with a broker of a couple of hundred thousand, also from my dad’s estate. I have been paying for the taxes and insurance on the home from my inheri-tance money.zz

We are getting a di-vorce. My wife would like to live in the home, with the kids, until our youngest, now thirteen years old, gets out of high school. My lawyer calls that “exclusive use and possession.” I need a place to live, and can not afford a home nearly as nice, if I have to live else-where. Can she kick out of my own home? Would I still have to pay child support? How is that calculated? We have a mediation set in a couple

of weeks. What should I do?

A: Granting exclusive use and occupancy to a divorced residential par-ent and the children is not uncommon. It is usually conditioned upon the res-idential parent remaining unmarried, and lasts until the youngest child is out of support. It is consid-ered a way of providing child support. However, it is not usually allowed where, as here, the home is not jointly owned, and is not marital property.

Under those circum-stances, it should not be granted unless the court finds that your income is not sufficient to pay your share of the child support and still have enough left over to support yourself, and that, therefore, use of the home is necessary.

The child support would be calculated in the usual manner. Your in-come and your wife’s in-come, net of income tax-es would be determined. The required guidelines support is calculated by comparing your total net income to the chart found in the Florida Child Sup-port Guidelines. The sup-port amount provided by the statute is then divided between you proportion-

ately, depending on the percentage of the total income earned by each of you, adjusted for the pay-ment of health insurance for the children.

Under these circum-stances, however, an additional adjustment would be made in the in-come calculation. The fair rental value of the home would be added to your wife’s income before de-termining the total sup-port, and your respective percentages.

To plan for the up-coming mediation your attorney should prepare sample child support guidelines scenarios, with and with out the granting the possession of exclu-sive use of the house to your wife.

If you want to hold on to possession of the home, you must take the position that you can af-ford the child support provided by the guide-lines calculation. If you want her to posses the home, temporarily, you have to argue that you cannot otherwise provide support for the children. The cost of your alterna-tive place to live should be determined and con-sidered in order to figure out what would be eco-nomically best for you.

Hey, that’s my house

In real fellowship – a friendship or relationship in which mutual support is extended – people ex-perience mercy. Fellow-ship is a place of grace, where mistakes are not rubbed in with constant reminders, but rubbed out and forgiven. Fellow-ship happens when mercy wins over justice.

Everyone needs mer-cy, because we all stumble and fall, and usually re-quire help getting back on track. Because of this, we need to be willing to offer mercy to each other – and be equally willing to receive it from one an-other.

You cannot have fel-lowship, whether in the workplace, a community organization or a family, without forgiveness be-cause bitterness and re-sentment always destroy fellowship. Sometimes we hurt each other intention-ally and sometimes unin-tentionally; either way, it takes massive amounts of mercy and grace to create and maintain fellowship.

The Bible offers this wise admonition: “You must make allowance for each other’s faults and forgive the person who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others”

(Colossians 3:13).The mercy God shows

to us should serve as the motivation for us to show mercy to others, regard-less of the circumstanc-es. Whenever you find yourself being hurt by someone else, you have a choice to make:

Will I use my energy and emotions for retalia-tion – or for resolution? You cannot do both.

Many people are re-luctant to show mercy because they fail to un-derstand the difference between trust and for-giveness.

Forgiveness is letting go of the past. Trust, however, has to do with future behavior.

Forgiveness must be immediate, regardless of whether a person asks for it. Trust must be earned and rebuilt over time.

Trust requires a track record. If someone hurts you repeatedly, you are commanded by God to forgive them instantly, for your own benefit as well as the other person. Lack of forgiveness can become an emotional cancer, a lingering, lethal source of bitterness.

However, you are not expected to immediately trust the person that has hurt you – and you are not

expected to continue al-lowing them to hurt you. When people inflict pain in your life, they must prove to have changed over time before they can regain your trust. One of the best places for restor-ing trust is within the supportive context of a small group that can pro-vide both encouragement and accountability.

But while you are giv-ing people time to make positive changes, your first step should be to extend forgiveness, inde-pendent of whatever re-medial action they choose to take.

Consider this insight from the Scriptures: “When people sin, you should forgive and com-fort them, so they won’t give up in despair” (2 Corinthians 2:7).

He Came, He saw, He Conquered: The House the Schnellenberger BuiltBy: Pedro Heizer

Howard Schnellen-berger has been to the FAU owls what his men-tor, Don Shula was for the Miami Dolphins, Schnel-lenberger devoted his time and passion to getting the FAU Football program off the ground.

He spent two years as the school's director of football operations, though there was no foot-ball team, and has since been the only coach the program has ever known.

Schnellenberger was the driving force behind getting an on-campus sta-dium, and made FAU a common name in both the state and the country.

When Schnellenberger came to FAU in 1998, one of the first things he pro-posed was an on-campus stadium. He had made a similar proposal during his tenures at Miami, and Louisville.

Schnellenberger un-derstands the importance of an on-campus stadium, from his days with Miami in the late 70s and early 80s.

The Hurricanes played

at the Orange Bowl and Schnellenberger said one of his first games (a game versus Notre Dame) had to be moved because fans wouldn't travel to the Orange Bowl despite the Irish being one of the most recognizable teams in college football.

He said he didn't want FAU to have the same problems.

"I've been right in the middle of this thing for all these years and can see the significance of play-ing their home games on campus," Schnellenberger said. "It was absolutely obvious to us that a sta-dium needed to be built on our campus because no college football team wants to be off their own campus. The ones that are off campus certainly wish that they were on campus and that is true of the great teams as well.”

According to Schnel-lenberger, a school be-comes a recognizable af-ter its football program becomes important in the national eyes. UCLA, FSU, UF, UCF, Auburn, LSU, Alabama, all were small schools at one point.

These schools grew once the school invested in a football stadium. Once a football program becomes

Pedro Heizer and Howard Schnellenberger

seen in the national me-dia, not only will it be eas-ier for the school to sign recruits, but the school will grow along with the football program.

“With this football stadium, FAU will now be a major player when it comes to recruitment, and being noticed by bigger conferences." an enthusi-astic Schnellenberger in his office explained the importance of a football stadium in a University.

Not only is the stadi-um a huge boost for the College Life at FAU, but it will also be a huge boost for the city of Boca Ra-ton. The new 30,000 seat stadium will attract fans

from all over Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, and oth-er neighboring cities. All these people will come to the heart of Boca Raton and will end up eating at the local restaurants, go to bars, clubs, or any form of entertainment after the games, much like FSU has right now.

“The city is expecting a boost in the economy thanks to the stadium opening up and that is a great sign for us” ex-plained Councilwoman Constance Scott.

Seeing his dream of an on-campus stadium realized is one of the highlights of Schnel-lenberger’ s career. And

in spite of feeling the pull of retirement that is just around the corner (Schnellenberger will retire after the season), Schnellenberger hasn't lost his passion for the game.

FAU found the ulti-mate builder, and the ulti-mate dreamer; Schnellen-berger is the type of guy who is able to look at a pile of junk and see gold.

As for what Schnellen-berger sees in the future for FAU, “I can see them in 15 years being parts of the Big East Conference and competing for a na-tional title or a meaning bowl game.”

The Boca Raton Tribune SPORTS East/West Boca Raton, FL

By: Pedro Heizer

The Conditions were not ideal, but the United States without superstar Landon Donovan (strained quadriceps) defeated Hon-duras 1-0 in an interna-tional friendly in front of 21,170 rain-soaked fans at Sun Life Stadium.

The win is the first of head coach Jurgen Klins-mann who is now 1-2-1 as the head coach of the National Team and is the 13th victory of the U.S. National Team versus Honduras.

Clint Dempsey scored in the 36th minute on a beautiful goal. Dempsey turned on the defender, switched the ball from his right to his left foot and shot the ball just inside the left post of Honduras’ goalie Donis Escobar.

“I didn’t know if that

ball was going to come through,” explained Dempsey of the goal after the game. “I tried taking it with my right foot, saw that it was going to get blocked, pulled it back and tried to place it with my left foot and couldn’t have hit it any better.”

The goal was Dempsey’s 23rd goal as a member of the United States National Team.

Honduras started the game with some great chances, goalkeeper Tim Howard made six saves but none bigger than the open shot on goal in the 19th minute by Jerry Bengston and then again in the 72nd minute when he blasted a shot from 30 yards out.

“The conditions weren’t great, but I thought de-fensively we were pretty good. They pose some re-ally big problems for us.

They’re strong up front and because they have two target players who can hold the ball up they can get a lot of players into the attack. It was difficult but I thought we did pretty well in terms of controlling them and not giving them too many great chances,” explained Howard after the game.

This game could have easily been 2-0 when Ogu-chi Onyewu shot from a rebound was just over the crossbar in the 66th min-ute.

Boca Raton native, Jozy Altidore had over 300 friends and family come watch him play, “I had a ton of family come out; it was really special for me. I really enjoyed playing in front of my family and a lot of people who helped me get to the point I am today.”

United States National Team wins in Miami for the first time since 2003: National Team now has a 3-10-4 record in South Florida

Another player with roots in South Florida is Real Salt Lake midfield-er Kyle Beckerman who

started his MLS career in Miami with the Miami Fusion, “It’s always great coming back and playing

in Miami. This is a great city with great soccer fans.”

Boca Raton, FL - The Florida Atlantic University women’s soccer team returns to the friendly confines of

South Florida to face Sun Belt Conference leading University of Denver and the Uni-versity of North Texas

on Parent’s Weekend.

The Owls will battle D e n v e r , the defend-ing league champions, on Friday, October 14 at 7 p.m. North Tex-as comes to town on Sunday, Oc-tober 16 at noon. Both matches will be played at the FAU Soccer Sta-dium, 777

Glades Road, Boca Raton campus.

The team has fared much better at home

this season, posting a 5-1-1 record. FAU won its last home match in overtime against rival Troy University on October 2. Overall the Owls stand 5-7-1 on the season and are 1-4-1 in league play.

Sophomore forward Jesse Shugg continues to pace an offensive attack with six goals and 13 points. The Burlington, Ontario, Canada native tallied her first assist of the season in last Fri-day’s 2-1 loss to Middle Tennessee State Univer-sity. Shugg is the team’s leader with 39 shots.

Fellow sophomore forward Brittney Nash is tops on the team with five assists to go along with three goals. Junior

forward Allison Griffin scored her fourth goal of the season on October 7. Griffin has found the back of the net on four of her nine shots this season.

Denver has outscored its league opponents 24-3 with a league-leading 6-0 record. The Pioneers are coming off dominating home wins over the Univer-sity of South Alabama with a score of 7-0 and Troy with a score of 6-0 last weekend. The team stands 12-2 overall.

Denver is led by Kris-ten Hamilton’s 11 goals and eight assists while Nicholette DiGiacomo and Kalie Vaughn have added seven goals each. Last year, the Owls dropped a 3-0 decision

to Denver in the Rocky Mountain state. The Pio-neers are moving to the Western Athletic Con-ference after this season.

North Texas also en-ters this weekend’s ac-tion unbeaten in five Sun Belt matches. Overall the Mean Green stand 10-3-1 on the season. The team is coming off a 4-1 home victory over Troy and its match against South Alabama was can-celled due to heavy rain on October 9. North Texas is led by Michelle Young with 10 goals and 23 points. Nikki Crocco has scored seven goals while Kelsey Hodges has added five goals. Ellen Scarfone leads the team with six assists.

Two playoff games: Eight goals. The Strikers offense has been firing on full cylinders ever since the post season started, and the “quest for the cup” began. The Strikers won 3 to 1 in Puerto Rico late Saturday night.

Playing the first leg of the semifinals, the Strik-ers faced the Islanders in Puerto Rico. Having not lost a single game at home this season, the Islanders had all the confidence they needed. Yet, the Strikers came in having different plans. After a scoreless first half, where Abe Thomp-son was limited to touches, coach Daryl Shore made a substitution and brought in Martin Nunez.

In the 49th minute, just four minutes after come in, Martin scored a goal that came in from a Lance La-ing cross.

In the 82th minute, Walter Restrepo added a second to the lead but was answered right back in the

Strikers Come Up Big Against the Islanders

84th by Jonathan Fana who shot the goal inside the box. The assist came from Gregory Richardson.

In stoppage time, Mike Palacio hooked up with Bri-an Shriver who scored his 3rd goal in 2 games. The goal came from an Island-ers turnover that resulted in Palacio being wide open for the cross to Shriver.

“Obviously we are pleased with the result,”

said Strikers head coach Daryl Shore. “We know we have areas to improve upon for the second leg. We know Puerto Rico is going to come in hungry and throw everything at us. We have to be prepared and ready for a battle next week.”

The Islanders now come to Ft. Lauderdale to face the Strikers in the sec-ond leg of the semifinals on October, 15th.

The Strikers have a 3-1 lead on aggregate and are that much closer to the Championship.

Tickets are still aviable for the October 15th game, and can be found at https://tickets.completeticketsolu-tions.com/MFC/Online/default.asp

BOCA RATON, Fla.—Through the first four weeks of Sunshine State Conference play, Lynn University’s volleyball team has tallied a 1-1 split every week versus SSC opponents, including this past week with a win over Barry and a loss to Rollins.

Abbey Bro-kop had a match-high 39 assists and also added eight digs. Brianna Cox hit .524 for the match to

lead all attackers in that category. Shannon Dugan also posted an impressive .414 hitting percentage while Brittany Brown’s hitting percentage was .367. Freshman Nikki Ha-ben amassed a team-high 13 digs while Mandy Mc-Intosh collected 11.

The Knights welcomed Rollins to the de Hoernle Center on Saturday, Octo-ber 8, and started out on the right foot by taking the first set. However, Rollins won the next three sets to claim the road victory and their sixth SSC win of the year.

By: Amit Kheterpal Golf is played to enjoy

the sun and get that abun-dant color of green. The green is also a term which is used as a synonym to the golf course.

There are a lot of plac-es where you can go when the summer season is there as there is no chill and you can enjoy the sun. All over the country there are golf courses and special golf destination s which are filled with golf tourists all summer.

Some of the best places where you can go for golfing combined with vacations are the states of North Carolina and South Carolina. While the best destination that is the Hilton Head is in South Carolina the famous Myrtle Beach is in North Carolina.

You can be assured that the best of the best places

go very empty in winter as you would not want to play the golf in winter with chill blowing into your face.

There is no reason for despair as there are places which are there all over the country which do not get the sub zero temperatures as the North East and these place offer the best way to enjoy golf during winter.

Myrtle Beach in North Carolina is one such place which does not get very chilly and you can enjoy the golf all day long but you need to be careful about the evening as they can be a bit chilly especially if you are going in the month of De-cember and January.

The other place which is very good for winter golf is the gambling city of the world and is Las Vegas. Las Vegas has been made in the Nevada desert and a lot of

resorts there offer the golf and you can enjoy both golf-ing and gambling.

There are several other places like Arizona or Flor-ida which offer great places to play golf in winter.

The bets part is that in winter the rates of the ho-tels come down drastically and also the golf rates also very economical. You can effectively enjoy a good golfing vacation at half the prices of what you would have been charged in peak summer.

There are several places in UK and Ireland which offer absolutely dirt cheap options for playing golf in winter. These places though are cold and you will need to have full winter gear but the beauty and charm of Eu-rope is captivating enough to enjoy the game of golf in winter.
