Bikes Move Faster Than Cars at Twilight Bike Festival Downtown Atlantic Avenue

By Stephanie Neeley This was not your grandma’s health and lifestyle festival.

Instead, more than 700 amateur and professional bicycle racers took over downtown Atlantic Avenue for two days to support a handful of local charities and put on a show for spectators.

Spectators lined the street to watch professional cyclists race as fast as 35 mph in a criterium of tight turns and straight-aways in the second annual “Delray Beach Twilight Festival” on Friday and Saturday.

The event was the second stop of the USA Crits series and the third race in the National Criterium Calendar.

Hilton Clarke (UnitedHealthcare) and Jacquelyn Crowell (Exergy Twenty 16) were the event’s winners.

Unlike ‘stage races,’ such as the Tour de France, which occur over great distances, this was a sprintstyle race, with a short, 1 kilometer course that was lapped over, and

over and over again, while spectators lined the streets to watch for an hour and a half.

The course was a .7 kilometer loop with four-right hand corners with turn three dubbed “crash corner” because of its greater than 90 degree turn.

Clarke capped off a strong performance in the men’s race, with Shane Kline (SmartStop/ Mountain Khakis) and Carlos Alzate (UnitedHealthcare) rounding out the podium.

With the course only illuminated by street and spot lights a field of 109 men were on the start line for 70 laps. With only a couple of laps completed a huge crashed forced the neutralization of the race.

Davide Frattini (UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling) was among the injured riders. He suffered a shoulder laceration, which required 37 staples to close.

Alzate went in a three-man breakaway with Thomas Gibbons (EBP) and Euris Vidal (CRCA/ Foundation) prior to the race

neutralizing crash and were allowed their 11-second head start on the field once the race was restarted.

With his victory, Clarke not only took over the current overall lead in the USA Crits series but the NCC as well.

Kline’s second place puts him as the current leader in the Under-25 competition.

In the women’s race, a solo break at about halfway in the race by Jacquelyn Crowell (Exergy TWENTY16) proved to be the winning move as she held off the peloton - but just barely.

The women were racing for 40 laps and the opening laps were fast with numerous primes keeping the peloton motivated.

With 23 laps remaining the first

serious move of the race was made.

Crowell (Exergy TWENTY16) took a one-hundred dollar prime and kept on rolling, separating herself from the field. Crowell had just returned from a European campaign and had the fitness to prove it.

Proceeds from the event benefitted Kids in Distress, Gumbo Limbo Nature Center and the YMCA Bike Program.

Area Church Offers Relief for Pain at the Pump

By Jason Schwartz Rising gas prices, and a desire to reach the community, have spurred a Boca Raton church toward a unique offering, just in time for Easter.

Members of The Journey Church of Boca Raton spent two Saturdays offering the community 50 cents off per gallon on gasoline for as many people as possible during a two-hour time frame as part of a Gas Buy Down event.

took place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on March 9 and March 16 at the Valero Gas Station, 1380 N. Federal Highway in Boca Raton, (just north of Glades Road).

Volunteers from the two year old church washed windshields by hands, pumped gas and gave drivers the opportunity to take advantage of the lowest gasoline prices in the region.

“It’s an attention grabber,” said motorist Dewayne Johnson, who

Church members hope the buy down helps people realize churches are here to help.

“With gas prices higher than ever we wondered if we could do something about it. And so we take a couple hours on a Saturday morning, buy down the price of gas and see if we can serve the community,” said Nelson Searcy, lead pastor of the church, which meets at Boca Raton Community High School, 1501 NW 15th Court. (Just off Glades Road at I-95, exit 45). “It’s a very practical way to try to help people. We’re kind of showing Gods love in practical ways and were always looking for ways to do it.”

The Journey’s “Gas Buy Down”

stopped by to take advantage of the break. “It’s an exciting way to get their information out. They got a lot of people who were driving by, like myself, to stop in.”

The Journey is a new church in Boca Raton, featuring services each Sunday at 10:30 a.m. with casual dress, rockin’ music and practical teaching.

Since its beginning in February, 2011, The Journey has grown to a congregation of several hundred that meet each week.

This community outreach opportunity connects nicely with their upcoming Easter teaching series about Coming Face to Face with God’s Grace.

Boca Raton’s Annual Boating and Beach Bash South Florida’s Annual Boating and Beach Bash for People with Disabilities celebrated its 5th Anniversary on March 16, 2013. The Bash has grown to become the largest, free, fun-day in America for children, adults and Purple Heart recipients with physical and/or intellectual challenges, and their caregivers. It is held in the tropical setting of Boca Raton, Florida’s famed Spanish River Park. The highlight of the event is

the opportunity to enjoy a boat ride aboard a flotilla of private yachts along the Intracoastal Waterway. All boats are donated by members of Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Boca Raton.

A Pageant that’s not all about the Glitz & Glamour

By Samantha Mellman When people think about children’s beauty pageants, some may recall that crazy show on TLC ‘Toddler’s & Tiaras’. On that show children and parents alike throw temper tantrums and are only concerned about their child taking home the grand cash prize.

On April 28th, at the Boca Raton Marriott, Future Stars Pageant sets itself apart from other pageants because it is in honor of fundraising for Passion for Autism, a non-profit organization. The contestants who are used to competing in pageants can take the pressure off themselves because this contest is not about who is the most glamorous or talented, this pageant is about children being themselves.

Margi Helschien, executive director of Future Stars Pageant, created this charity event to help raise funds and awareness for autistic children.

Helschien said, “In regular pageants parents are willing to spend thousands of dollars on outfits and travel expenses.”

This pageant is focused on allowing any child with only a minimal expense, a $55 dollar entry to participate in the pageant. Parents do not have to spend an excessive amount on costumes as long as they comply with the ‘Twinkling Star’ theme which means anything the contestant wears has a shining element. The other category is ‘I’m a Star’ in which each child can perform any kind of talent.

Helschien said, “One child is going to recite all the Presidents of the United States, while another reads a poem she wrote all by herself.”

Toddlers through 12 year-olds with or without any pageant experience will take the stage and know that they are not judged for what they wear or how good their performance is, but to know that their efforts help the sake of children who have difficulties expressing themselves with Autism.

Our mission is to provide qualified individuals financial aid for services for medical, social, or psychological reasons. www.bocaratontribune.com

Milo, Forever in my Heart On March 20, I celebrated another birthday.

Only two days later, I got a call that my best friend of seven years, Milo, had to be put down.

The doctor had been treating him for intestine blockage over the past two or so months. But there was no improvement in his health. In fact, the pain got intense and he stopped eating and drinking.

During her examination, the doctor found an abscess and scheduled Milo for oral surgery on March 22. But during the procedure, she discovered the lesions all over his mouth and made the recommendation to relieve him of his agony.

I was numb as I hung up the phone.

It was the longest 17-minute drive from my mechanic’s shop in Boynton Beach to Banfield hospital on Linton Boulevard in Delray Beach. Oh I wished and prayed for a miracle and that she had a change of heart.

As I waited in the room for the attendant to bring Milo out to me, I thought of the pain and hurt that awaited me. But I was comforted by the good times we had together.

You see, I recall the morning in 2006 I was doing my routine jog, when this tiny, friendly Jack Russell Terrier approached me. It was as if he sensed my spirit and was asking me to take him with me.

The following morning, I saw Milo walking with my neighbor, Irma, and her dog, Baby. Irma shared Milo’s history – his master was the neighborhood’s alleged drunk, who also was an abuser. It was evident Milo would cringe whenever we jogged past his previous address. He soon mustered the confidence to know that “Big Poppa” had his back.

Though not enough, we spent time at the dog park. I would always promise him a return trip.

I recall our 3-mile jog every other day.

Whenever he got tired, as he sometimes did, Milo would stop. And there was nothing you could do to get him to continue until he was ready.

He was jealous, or maybe he was being

protective of me. He would never let a female get close to me unless he liked her.

For example, there was a police officer in my neighborhood who would jog with her dog.

He resented her jogging near me. However, it was ok for her to stop and talk to us while she was in her patrol car.

He was loving and intelligent. Whenever I was late getting home, he would be waiting at the door. But his greeting was not quite the same. He often showed his displeasure, like the time I had Reserve drills and was supposed to return the following day to walk him. Well, I extended my trip an extra day and when I walked into our home, Milo had pulled the comforter off the bed, dragged it into the middle of the living room and did a number 1 on it.

I remember him looking at me as if to say, “That’s what you get for ignoring me.”

But he quickly forgave me and we made up as we went for our usual walk around the neighborhood. And we were buddies again.

I will miss taking him to Banfield to get his hair cut, his medical checkup or his teeth cleaned. Now that was a chore. I’ll also miss picking him up from the doggie hotel after an overnight or out-of-town trip.

Memories are all I have of him now.

Milo was not just my property he was family.

Milo, you’re gone but will never be forgotten my pal.

Ryan Hurting Seniors As a senior in Florida I would like to know why Paul Ryan actually feels contempt for America’s seniors? Once again his budget plan puts an end to traditional Medicare that millions of American seniors rely on – privatizing the program and leaving seniors on their own to buy insurance. We simply can’t afford to let this happen.

Medicare will become more expensive and seniors will spend more out-of-pocket while private insurers rake in windfall profits. At the same time, Ryan’s budget ensures the wealthy will continue to enjoy tax breaks.

It’s clear Rep. Ryan’s idea of “shared sacrifice” actually means retirees will pay more and get less while large corporations, insurers and wealthy Americans get to pay less and earn more.

Ryan’s budget strategy backfired in the 2012 elections. Are members of Congress ready to take that risk again?

What more can we say to him except he is hurting me and all seniors across the United States!

THOUGHTS FROM THE PUBLISHER

By Douglas Heizer

Tension Between Working and Waiting By: Robert J. Tamasy Although I have never met a mystic, that seems like a good job to have. Sitting around all day, just thinking, occasionally coming up with something that sounds wise or profound. People around you speaking in hushed tones, fearful of disrupting your deep thought process. “Quiet, he’s contemplating.”

In the 21st century business and professional world, of course, there is little place for mystics. We are action-oriented, determined to produce results quickly and in quantity. And you cannot do that by just sitting around and thinking about things. “Don’t just sit there – do something!” No time to contemplate.

Is that right? Is the “Do something, anything, even if it’s wrong” approach to deadlines, projects and goals always the best approach?

For many so-called “Type A” leaders, the answer would be yes.

Filled with ideas, energy and resolve, they insist on keeping the wheels in motion, and the faster the better. But experience teaches that waiting often is a wiser course of “action” than working. A former colleague often used to offer this insight: “Why is it that we did not have time to do this (assignment) right the first time, but we have time to do it over again?” Another friend had a sign posted in his office that stated, “Failure to plan on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part.” In other words, if we would be willing to slow down long enough to think things through, we might enjoy more successes – and suffer fewer mistakes.

But there is another side to this question. Sometimes, despite our desires and efforts, waiting is our only option. Not being a patient person by nature, I find this difficult. But in retrospect I have often found the waiting was

not mean inaction. Sometimes situations require us to hold our ground, remaining where we are.

Other times we can take steps that seem appropriate, but still must trust God to provide what we need. “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked Here are some of the things the schemes…. Wait for the Lord and Bible has taught me about waiting: keep his way. He will exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked Trust in the One that knows are cut off, you will see it” (Psalm the way. If you were making a 37:7, 34). trip through dangerous territory, Understand that times of would it help being guided by someone very familiar with the waiting teach us who is in control. area? In life and work, we do not We like to believe we are in control know what pitfalls lie ahead – but of our lives. However, often God does. At such times it helps circumstances are far beyond our to wait until He is ready to put us control, leaving us no choice but on the right course. “Trust in the to wait. These times can teach us Lord with all your heart and lean God is truly in control – and knows not on your own understanding. In exactly what He is doing. “Be still, all your ways acknowledge him and and know that I am God; I will be he will make your paths straight” exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth” (Psalm 46:10).

(Proverbs 3:5-6). worthwhile. For instance, there were times when I believed a career change was in order and felt ready to move forward immediately.

Instead, circumstances demanded that I wait. When the next job opportunity presented itself, to my surprise it was better than anything I could have imagined.

Every human is supposed to live daily with the expectancy of producing some good each new day.

Such action is not dependent on how one feels, where one is, who the beneficiaries will be, what you shall gain in return, and other similar considerations.

No one needs to go around looking for special situations to attend because all around everyone can easily detect individuals and occurrences in need of attention.

Every human is affected by the indignities which life hurls at us all and, thus, each person is dependent on the aid that others can provide, regardless of one’s station in life. It

may be a word, a helping hand, or something else.

It’s natural for people to consider the top candidates for help as those to whom life has treated more harshly.

Yet, rich or poor, educated and uneducated, young or old, male and female – all reach occasions in their earthly journey when conditions become most unfavorable, even if only for a short while. It often doesn’t take long for us to be aware of who and what those are!

As you daily go about conducting your normal tasks, you should not refrain from saying something uplifting to another person, even when you may feel yourself “down

in the dumps.” Others will benefit from your encouragement and, in the process, you shall be lifted up as well!

Remember that it’s always a little, positive gesture that impacts another life, just like a small act of rudeness can be injurious to someone in contact with you. It only takes a second to make or break, depending on the attitude you choose to display toward a fellow human.

We’re all traversing difficult days in our society. Therefore, we should be more sensitive to others, not knowing in advance how they may be feeling or what they may be

facing whenever we contact them.

A soft word, a loving greeting, an encouraging suggestion go much farther than unnecessary abruptness, or even negative, sarcastic, or other demeaning attitudes.

A positive recommendation I’ve made in my book, “Appetizers for the Soul” urges my readers, “Never allow any good you can provide to others to go to waste; be urgent and decisive in doing what is right!”

Hopefully such can also be your general disposition toward others, at all times and places, no matter how you may be feeling on the inside at that moment!

DIVORCE FLORIDA STYLE

By Rick Warren

By Mike Gora

What’s So Important About Easter?

Married Or Not?

Two thousand years ago, in the Middle East, an event occurred that permanently changed the world. Because of that event, history was split. Every time you write a date, you’re using the resurrection of Jesus Christ as the focal point.

What’s so important about Easter? It’s important because it proved that Jesus was who he claimed to be. He was God in the flesh, and he came to earth to save us.

Three events occurred in a dramatic succession on that Easter weekend: the trial of Jesus, then the death of Jesus, and finally the resurrection of Jesus. Let’s look at each of those events and their implications.

The Trial Jesus actually went through six trials.

In that one night, he was brought before Annas, Caiphas (the high priest), the Sanhedrin (the religious Supreme Court), Pilate (the governor of Jerusalem), Herod (the governor of Galilee), and then back to Pilate. At the end of those six trials, what did they find to accuse him of ? Nothing. He had done nothing wrong. They brought in people to make up phony charges, but those didn’t stick. Finally they convicted him on one count: claiming to be the Son of God. That’s the sole reason Jesus went to the cross. They didn’t like that claim.

Everyone who has ever been presented with Jesus has already made some kind of decision about who he is. You either believe he’s a liar, or you believe he’s a lunatic, or you believe he’s the Lord. It can’t just be: “I believe he was a good teacher.” He couldn’t be just a good teacher, because a good teacher would not say, “I’m God, and I’m the only way to heaven.” A good person would not say that unless it was the truth.

Jesus claimed to be the Savior of the world. In John 12:47, he is recorded as saying: “I didn’t come to judge the world.

I came to save it.” He allowed himself to be put on trial so there would be no doubt about who he was. He could have stopped the trial at any moment. He knew he would be proven guilty and put on the cross -- but he allowed it to happen. It was all part of the plan.

The Death After a night of beatings and mocking, after being crowned with painful thorns, Jesus was crucified. Crucifixion is probably the most brutal and torturous death penalty ever devised by men. His hands were stretched out wide against the cross and nailed through the two bones in each wrist. As the nails went through this part of the flesh, they would strike the nerve that travels up the arm and cause excruciating pain.

If you hung this way for any period of time, the muscles around your chest cavity began to be paralyzed. You’d be able to breathe in but you couldn’t breathe out.

Death on a cross would have been a simple matter of suffocation -- except the Romans didn’t want to make it that easy. They’d take a person’s knees and bend them a little bit and nail the feet to the cross. So a man would hang there in absolute agony until the pain in his chest was about to explode -- and then

he would lift himself up on his nailed feet to grab a breath. When the pain in his feet grew unbearable, he’d let himself back down again -- until the pain in his lungs became unbearable. It was an incredibly torturous event. Eventually, the soldiers would break the legs of the criminal to hasten death by suffocation.

In the case of Jesus, they didn’t have to break his legs, because he had already died.

But just to make sure, they stuck a spear in his side. Water and blood came out of the chest cavity, which, doctors say, only happens if the heart rips. You can call it what you want, but Jesus died of a broken heart.

Why did Jesus have to die? Because he alone was able to pay for your sins. You deserved punishment, but Jesus paid the penalty for you.

The Resurrection After Jesus died, they took his body down and put him in the tomb, and a giant millstone was set in front of the cave. The religious leaders -- worried that Jesus’ body might be stolen -- asked for Roman guards to be posted in front of the tomb. They didn’t want him coming out! But of course, he did.

You know the story. But it’s important to remember that Easter is not some memorial to a nice, good religious teacher who lived 2,000 years ago. It’s a celebration of the fact that he is alive today. I’m living proof -- and so are the approximately 1 billion Christians who will celebrate Easter this weekend. “... by being raised from the dead he was proved to be the mighty Son of God, with the holy nature of God himself.”

Easter is the good news about God’s Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who came as a human baby, born into King David’s royal family line. Four historical records say he showed himself to 500 people at one gathering. Can you imagine witnessing his death and then seeing him walking around Jerusalem three days later? What an amazing thing! When Jesus was hanging on the cross, the skeptics and critics mocked him and said, “If you’re the Son of God, why don’t you just pull yourself down from that cross? Why don’t you just come down and show that you’re really God?” Jesus had something more spectacular planned. He said, “I’m going to let you bury me for three days, then I’ll come back to life to prove that I am what I am.”

What does this mean to us today? In one sense, Jesus Christ is still on trial. He’s on trial in the heart and mind of every person who has not yet acknowledged him as the Son of God, the Savior of the world.

What’s your verdict? You see, Easter really boils down to only two issues. One, is Jesus who he says he is? Is he God? Or is he a lunatic or a liar? And two, if he is who he says he is, when are you going to start following what he says to do with your life?

Today, you sit in judgment of Jesus Christ. Just as Pilate asked, “What shall I do then with Jesus who is called the Christ?” you also must decide whether he was who he said or not.

Are you willing to gamble your life that he was wrong?

Q: In a recent column, you answered a question about some one who might not be married, because the husband thought that his divorce from his first wife might have been invalid. Under those circumstances what rights to alimony and property might a “wife” have, after twenty years of marriage, if she finds out her husband never really divorced his first wife.

“Stoker” Creepy Korean-American Thriller

By Skip Sheffield South Korea has gone from ruins to world power in my lifetime.

In addition to its manufacturing production of everything from automobiles to electronics, Korea has been producing world-class artists in music, theater and film.

Park Chan-wook is one such artist, and “Stoker” is his first English-language film.

Be forewarned that Chan-wook is known as a “master of bloodshed.”

His films are known for visual elegance tempered with melodrama and extreme violence.

“Stoker” has all three elements.

India Stoker (Mia Wasikowska) is a lonely, just-turned 18-year-old girl in a great big house. Her best friend was her father, Richard Stoker (Delmot Mulroney), but he has just been killed in a fiery car crash.

India is shunned at high school and considered a weirdo.

“My ears hear what other ears cannot hear,” she says mournfully.

India’s mother Evelyn (Nicole Kidman) is in a dazed, distracted state when she introduces India to Charles Stoker (Matthew Goode), her father’s long-lost younger brother. Charles is a good-looking, charming guy who is full of tales of his extensive world travels. Despite being so recently widowed, Evelyn takes an interest in Charles. So does India.

There is a deep, dark secret in the Stoker family, and it affects and infects everyone. First the family’s housekeeper (Phyllis Somerville) vanishes. Then a nosy relative (Jackie Weaver) also goes missing.

Meanwhile Charles has been getting far too cozy with Evelyn, prompting jealousy in her daughter.

“Stoker” is a profoundly creepy film with an ever-building sense of dread as family secrets (and blood) are spilled. The unraveling is done Boca Life & Arts

with extraordinary, beautiful visual imagery: splattered blood that morphs into red flowers; India’s seeming fetish with her saddle shoes and the stuffed, mounted trophies from the sharp-shooting she did with her father.

All this symbolic foreboding erupts into unspeakable acts that are clearly meant to shock.

As so often happens in horrorshockers, the plot twists become so extreme and grotesque any semblance to the real world dissolves.

The best thing about “Stoker” is its young leading lady, Mia Wa s i k o w s k a .

Wasikowska has an other-worldly quality that suited her well in “Jane Eyre” and Lewis Carroll’s “Alice” and is perfect for the deeply disturbed, possibly dangerous India.

Matthew Goode’s sunny yet sinister smile is most appropriate as well. Nicole Kidman seems more a cipher, but maybe that is just as well for a mother who has lost any control over her daughter or her own life.

“Stoker” is no masterpiece, but it does produce some disturbing chills.

Three stars Ed Koch Gets a Cinematic Epitaph It is no small irony that “Koch” was released in New York on the very day former mayor Ed Koch died at age 88. No more would New Yorkers hear Koch’s cheery greeting, “How am I doing?” Now they have a film to memorialize him, warts and

all.

Koch became Mayor of New York City in 1977, when the whole place was on the brink of ruination.

He went on to serve three terms, through 1989. No one can say Koch did not work tirelessly to improve the quality of life and financial stability of New York City. Koch had a special concern for minorities, the homeless, people with AIDS and gay rights.

As a result he had his detractors.

Directed by Neil Barsky, the film brings up the rumor the nevermarried Koch was gay. That topic is never settled, nor does it really matter.

Koch was a very private man.

We should honor that. Testimonies by Michael Bloomberg, Calvin O. Butts III, Carl McCall, Christine Quinn and Charles Rangel tell us why.

Broken Sound Club Recognized As One Of “America’s Healthiest Clubs”

Benjamin Bear Once upon a time there was a bear named Benjamin. He lived near a campsite. Benjamin was a good boy.

Well, most of the time. If you’ve ever been to a campsite you might have roasted marshmallows or cooked hotdogs by the fire. Well, Benjamin liked to do and eat that stuff too. Sadly he was a bear. Bears don’t eat that, and campers wouldn’t give him that stuff, thanks to that “Please Don’t Feed the Bears” sign. So he stole the food. He didn’t feel proud of it, but it was so good that he thought it was worth it. It wasn’t. It’s never worth it to steal. He just wished he could share it with his family. He had seven brothers and six sisters! He especially wished he could share it with his youngest brother, Billy.

He knew that he once had marshmallows because some campers didn’t obey the “Please Don’t Feed the Bears” sign and gave him some marshmallows. Billy loved it, but even the two and a half year old bear knew it wasn’t right to steal. They only put out the “Please Don’t Feed the Bears” sign because they thought the bears were mean. They weren’t mean, but the campers didn’t know that. They thought they were mean vicious bears, but they weren’t.

Benjamin wished they would feed him, that way he wouldn’t have to steal the food and feel so ashamed. He really wanted to share the food with his family, but he couldn’t get caught.

He wouldn’t be able to go fishing with the rest of his brothers and sisters. He loves fishing almost as much as he loves those hot-dogs that he was munching on at that very moment.

2 days later

Benjamin went fishing every day with his family. Fishing just wasn’t that fun with feeling all that guilt. He felt so bad that he went home. Only his mother, and his sixteen month old sister, Betty, stayed home during fishing trips. His mother knew something was up by the look on her son’s face, and the fact that he was home early. You know, moms can always tell when something’s wrong. “What’s wrong?” she asked her son. “Oh, nothing,” he replied. “Then why are you home early?” she asked.

“Ok, ok. I’ve been stealing food from the campers at the campsite,” said Benjamin sadly. “Oh, why?” asked his mother, very surprised. “I know it’s not right. I’ve prayed about it, I’ve asked God to help me, it’s just the taste of those hot-dogs and marshmallows that tempts me to do it! I’ve been taking the food for about a year now. My guilt was really getting to me, and I just couldn’t take it anymore!” said Benjamin with a sob.

“Why didn’t you tell me before?” asked his mother. “I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to go fishing with everybody else, but now even fishing doesn’t seem fun because I feel so March 29, through April 4, 2013

guilty,” cried Benjamin. “Oh, it’s ok, honey. We’ll find a way to get food like that without having to steal it,” said Benjamin’s mother. “But how?” asked Benjamin sitting sadly and ashamed. “I don’t know, but we’ll find a way,” said Benjamin’s mother.

1 year later “I’m so glad I can get those delicious, warm hot-dogs, and those delicious marshmallows without stealing anymore,” said Benjamin happily. “See, honey, I told you we’d find a way to get the food you wanted without stealing,” said Benjamin’s mother, Harriet. “You were right. I owe you an apology,” said Benjamin. Now you might be wondering how they got the food without stealing.

Well, I’ll tell you.

After Benjamin confessed to his mother, his mother told everyone else.

They were ashamed of him, but they knew that everyone makes mistakes.

He just made a pretty big one. They all realized that this probably wasn’t going to be his last mistake either. Then his father came up with a plan. He said, “Well, why did they put that ‘Please Don’t Feed the Bears’ sign up in the first place? Huh? Because they thought that we were mean, vicious, ferocious bears, even though we’re not, of course.

We just need to show them that we’re nice, kind bears.”

So that’s what they did. They showed the campers that they were nice by performing tricks for the campers.

The campers liked that very much.

Eventually they took down that “Please Don’t Feed the Bears” sign. Then they were all happy. Especially Benjamin’s little brother, Billy.

“Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, But such as keep the law contend with them.” (Prov. 28:4 NKJV) God loves you, and never wants you to steal. If you ever feel like stealing, or somebody or something is tempting you to do it, let me just tell you right now that you should not do it. No matter how much you want to, or if it seems like the only possibility, let me remind you that it’s not.

There’s always a choice. Just trust in God and believe that he will save you. God always comes through. Even if you fail in this world, but believe in Jesus Christ, you will be able to have a much better life in heaven. All the good things you do now will get you great rewards in heaven. I’m not saying that you will get to heaven by doing good deeds, but if you do them, and believe in God you will be very happy. That’s all I have to say, except, God loves you.

Oh, and one more thing, if you see a bear in the woods, and there’s a “Please Don’t Feed the Bears” sign there, you should probably listen to it. Chances are, that those bears aren’t as friendly as Benjamin and his family. Oh, and you should probably run.

Boca Raton, FL (March 21, 2013) – Achieving the highest overall rating to date in the country for private clubs, Broken Sound Club has been recognized with the honor of being known as the first of the “America’s Healthiest Clubs” in the country. The recognition was awarded by Prevo Health Solutions, Inc., the club industry’s premier wellness experts with expertise in workplace wellness and member recruitment and retention.

Prevo Health is the executive producer of “America’s Healthiest Clubs”, the club industry’s only wellness rating system and recognition for a healthy environment achieved via a distinguished third-party validation.

Its mission is to improve the overall health of the private club industry through education and sharing of best practices. The Prevo team consists of health professionals, certified nutrition and fitness experts, workplace wellness gurus and engagement specialists who know how to inspire and engage people to eat wise and exercise.

Through its America’s Healthiest Club awards program, Prevo Health quantitatively evaluates clubs across five equally rated categories: Fitness, Nutrition, Staff, Members and Facilities. Each category is comprised of multiple questions, each of which have a maximum point balance with certain responses valued/weighed as more important. The Criteria Committee is comprised of a host of advisors, workplace wellness experts, certified nutritionists, world-renowned chefs, fitness experts and experienced private club executives. Each brings years of experience and expertise to assist in defining questions, responses and proven best practices. www.bocaratontribune.com

According to Prevo Health Solutions Founder & President Rick Ladendorf, a “singular stand out” the evaluation team observed and recognized as what sets Broken Sound apart from other clubs nationwide is the Club’s use of a third-party, online, incentive-based Wellness Program. The program tracks and manages employee participation in activities, education, challenges and, most importantly, it encourages everyone to achieve their fitness goals, all while at work.

“So far, Broken Sound is the only club in the nation we have evaluated that has licensed a third-party wellness platform to maximize employee engagement and participation,” reported Ladendorf.

Employees begin by taking an online Health Risk Assessment that is followed by a prescriptive, personal and integrated program that includes a daily to-do list, meal plans, fitness programs and an integrated health coaching module.

“We measure the two most important variables: availability and participation. A club that has a beautiful fitness facility with a 10% participation rate will not score as well against a club with an unmanaged fitness facility and 70% participation,” added Ladendorf.

The Health Score is quantitative and levels the playing field, so all clubs can participate regardless of square footage, size of membership, geography, type of club or membership fee. A Health Score of 800-plus qualifies a club as one of America’s Healthiest Clubs, a distinguished third party validation and recognition for achieving a healthy environment.

Sampling The Italian Foods At Restaurant Damiano This year old, 200 seat traditional restaurant has a wealth of diverse dishes including some 9 appetizers on their standard menu.

The calamari fritte had a sweet, tender taste and texture, a fine dish.

The mussels marino style were juicy and flavorful while the clams “oreganta’s” heavy breading just overpowered the true clam taste – chef take note. The antipasto was a true mini-tasting…with salami, sopressata, prosciutto, black and green olives aplenty plus roasted peppers, provolone, reggiano and fresh anchovies – nice dish.

and sautéed spinach. We could imagine no finer dish! This meat listing also features veal Francese, veal Paillard, veal Parmigiana, short ribs and pork chop vinegar peppers-all well adorned.

We opt to forego any of the eight pizza offering and attended to the pasta selections – 13 in total. We loved the fettuccine Alfredo – light yet very flavorful with its great sauce. Penne vodka in a red sauce was deep flavored and delicious as was the Rigatoni Bolognese with a very traditional sauce. We also sampled the Bucatini alla Amatriciana – new for us with long pasta, pancetta, onions and Romano cheese in a rich, full bodied tomato sauce. Damiano does pasta right!

Sampling the tiramisu was a genuine treat to the palette – sweet and very flavorful as was the smooth chocolate gelato – a fitting end to a fine meal.

From the five veal dishes listed – we selected the veal piccata, large, tender slices of veal pounded thin and sautéed with capers in a light wine and lemon butter sauce – served with a potato puree

Located at 3011 Yamato Road in the Woodfield Plaza Center, Danny di Tonno’s hours are 4:30PM to 11PM, all seven days. Pricing is realistic for quality fare, so we suggest you – Go and Enjoy!

For the seafood listings, we happily chose the Sole Francese – a huge fish steak in a light, tasty batter for a winning choice. One may try shrimp marinara, shrimp scampi, shrimp fra diavolo, calamari and salmon livornese.

Suspects in Josephine’s Homicide Arrested Boca Raton, FL – On Friday, January 4th at 11:45 p.m., Rafael Rodriguez was shot and killed during an armed robbery at Josephine’s Restaurant, 5751 North Federal Highway. During the robbery, various items were taken, including wallets, phones, cash, and jewelry.

In particular, a Chopard watch was stolen from one of the victims.

identified as the third person present when the watch was sold.

In January, the suspects traveled to Boca Raton to commit burglaries.

Members of the Tactical Team, Road Patrol, and detectives located Walker, Montalvo, and Sylvestre and arrested them for burglary and grand theft (click for the related release).

Boca Raton detectives tracked down the person who bought the watch, interviewed him and recovered the watch. The sale of the watch was captured on a store’s surveillance video. Detectives reviewed the video and determined the subjects who sold the watch matched the homicide suspects.

Detectives obtained phone records for two of the subjects who sold the watch, Adalberto Montalvo and Quinton Sylvestre. An analysis of their phone records showed they were exchanging calls the night before and the night of the homicide, with a phone belonging to Samuel Walker. Detectives determined all three phones were in Boca Raton, in the area of Josephine’s during the time of the robbery. Walker was

Search warrants were executed on homes associated with Walker, Sylvestre, and Montalvo.

A backpack, containing three firearms and a hockey mask, and shoes were seized. Several of these items were consistent with items seen on surveillance video. Shoe prints found at the scene matched the soles of one of the pairs of shoes detectives seized.

Detectives spoke with the three suspects after their arrest for burglary. Montalvo and Sylvestre refused to speak with them.

Walker admitted to being with Montalo, Sylvestre and his father, Samuel Walker, Sr., but denied any involvement in the homicide. Walker, Sr. also denied any involvement in

the homicide.

Detectives received confirmation from PBSO’s firearms lab that one of the guns recovered fired the bullet that killed Rafael Rodriguez.

Walker’s DNA was found on and around the trigger of the gun.

Walker’s DNA was also found on the Chopard watch.

On March 21, detectives received results from swabs taken from inside the hockey mask. The DNA evidence connected Quinton Sylvestre to the mask.

Blood evidence was identified on the shoes seized from Montalvo.

This blood was linked to the victim, Rafael Rodriguez, through DNA analysis.

Boca Raton detectives charged Samuel Walker, Jr., Adalberto Montalvo, and Quinton Sylvestre, with first degree murder and robbery with a firearm. The investigation is on-going and detectives are still seeking the identity of the fourth suspect.

Four Arrested After a Loaded Gun And Drugs Found in Car

Boca Raton, FL – On Wednesday, March 13th around noon, members of the Boca Raton Police Services Department Tac Team noticed a car, with very dark tinted windows, driving west on NW 37th Street.

The driver turned into a driveway of a house, immediately backed out and drove in the opposite direction. The driver failed to stop at a stop sign at Jog Road. The officer continued following the car until other units arrived to back him up.

When backup arrived, the car was stopped and four individuals in the car were questioned. All four people were from Fort Lauderdale and gave various stories as to why they were in the city. While searching

one occupant, Jaheim Richardson, officers found a window punch in his pocket. Officers also found 45 pieces of crack cocaine on Shakeem Hill. In the car, officers found marijuana and a loaded Smith & Wesson revolver under the rear bench seat, which Hill admitted belonged to him. He said he had just purchased the gun from an unknown person near Glades Road.

All occupants were charged with Loitering & Prowling, and possession of Marijuana. Hill was charged with Possession of crack cocaine with intent to sell, possession of a firearm during any felony and carrying a concealed firearm during commission of a felony. www.bocaratontribune.com

Boca Raton man Charged with Attacking Son With Knife

By Jason Schwartz A Boca Raton man was arrested after he allegedly attacked his son with a knife last week, authorities said.

Angel Llera, 64, was charged with attempted murder, aggravated battery and false imprisonment.

Llera was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail, where he remained late Monday in lieu of $10,000 bond.

According to the arrest report, Llera and his son, Michael Llera, were arguing in the family’s kitchen last Thursday, when the suspect charged at his son with a knife.

Michael Llera, 31, was cut on his left hand, his index and middle fingers and received a scrape on the side of his head as he attempted to

ward off his father, authorities said.

The younger Llera told investigators that he went to the kitchen to prepare a meal and noticed the back door had been left open. He slammed the door shut and did not say anything to his father to avoid a conflict, he told investigators.

Angel Llera allegedly followed his son into the kitchen, picked up a large butcher knife, told that Michael Llera he didn’t like his attitude, backed him into a corner of the kitchen and slashed at him with the knife, according to the affidavit.

Michael Llera then grabbed a stool and pushed his father away.

Angel dropped the knife and his son was able to escape to a bedroom and call 911, sheriff ’s investigators said.

Boca man Killed in Fiery Airplane Crash

By Fred Hamilton

A Boca Raton man and his son were among three people killed in a twin-engine airplane crash near the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport last week.

Wallace “Wally” Watson, 66, his son, Kevin W. Watson, 30, and Steven Waller, 65, were on a 1972 Piper Cheyenne PA-31T for a short test flight when it exploded into a cloud of thick black smoke on March 8.

The Watsons owned Avionics Engineering of Ft. Lauderdale, Inc. and were reportedly doing the short test flight after the Watsons’ company installed some radios in the plane.

Waller of Deerfield Beach was the pilot and the Watsons were the passengers.

Waller’s wife, Kim Waller, said she had spoken with him on the phone just an hour before the plane took off for its fatal flight. She said he was friends with the two passengers.

“He was the best pilot ever,” said Kim, of her late husband of 16 years. “I hate flying, but I always loved flying with Stephen. I felt safe with him.”

Waller was an experienced commercial pilot with a ground and flight instructor license as well as aircraft mechanic license.

Kim Waller said her husband was well-versed in flying, often flying aircrafts for friends. She said she does not blame him for the crash. www.bocaratontribune.com

“I blame the plane, the owner and the mechanics, whoever operated it and worked on that plane,” Waller said. “Steve never would have taken a chance with Wally and his son.

All they were doing was checking avionics.”

Witnesses say they saw the plane descend and crash into a warehouse parking lot. No one was injured on the ground, but about seven vehicles were heavily damaged from the fiery crash of the plane near the side of a warehouse near North Powerline Road and Northwest 53rd Street, just north of Commercial Boulevard.

The National Transportation Safety Board is looking into whether a power outage or a mechanical failure caused the plane to tilt sideways and plummet into the parking lot.

Luke Schiada, a senior air safety investigator with the National Transportation Safety Board, is in charge of the crash investigation.

He said their focus on Saturday was documenting the aircraft on scene and then to get it to an off-site to examine it further.

“We’ll be gathering information about the pilot and his experience, and examining the aircraft’s history,” Schiada said. “We’ll take that information and put it into a comprehensive report that will be sent to the NTSB board, and they will determine a probable cause.

We’re not making any assumptions or drawing any conclusions.”

150+ Community, Business and Civic Leaders On-Site for Unveiling of Boca Raton Bridge Hotel Transformation Plan BOCA RATON, FL (March 25, 2013)— With more than 150 community, business and civic leaders in attendance, the design direction and inspiration for the aesthetic and structural transformation of the Boca Raton Bridge Hotel was revealed during a recent special preview reception at the top of the iconic boutique hotel. Russ Flicker, managing member of AWH Partners, LLC that in partnership with The Lane Organization purchased the boutique hotel property in September 2012, presented a site plan featuring the extensive property architectural reorientation with a new “sense of arrival” and relocation of hotel’s entrance and restaurants, expansion of indoor and outdoor waterfront public spaces, and renderings of the innovative interior design renovation concepts of the lobby, restaurants, and guest rooms conceived by the commissioned Gensler design firm. Throughout the evening, the captivated guests also enjoyed sampling a culinary “taste” of what is to come at the “newest jewel on the Boca waterfront” designed to meet or exceed the desires and needs of today’s discerning vacationers as well as the community’s social and business guests.

Led by a seasoned team of hotel ownership, management, designers and hospitality, operations, and marketing consultants, the

reinvention plans will reposition the hotel into a premier South Florida experience with its own distinctive signature in the destination. The complete transformation to a luxury four-star hotel status will include the introduction of entirely new hospitality and dining concepts, with plans to take optimal advantage of the property’s most distinctive assets: its prime location – on the Intracoastal Waterway and Lake Boca with direct access to the Atlantic Ocean – and its breathtaking water views. The preliminary phase of the Bridge Hotel’s major “reinvention” was launched in November 2012 with the construction of the hotel’s new dockto-dine “waterfront promenade” that flanks the property’s entire Lake Boca perimeter to expand hotel guest and community food and beverage enjoyment opportunities.

Alison Kaplan, Ivan Schneider, Irene Schneider, Hal Linden, Cathy Grana and John Crean

The Boca Raton Bridge Hotel, one of Palm Beach County’s boutique icon hotels with panoramic water views from every guest room, is located where the Intracoastal Waterway and Lake Boca Raton meet at 999 East Camino Real in Boca Raton.

CARLO BARBIERI

Brazil Club Graduates Inaugural Class

By Carlo Barbieri

The Brazilian Invasion: Good for the Nation, Good for America Part 1 of 2 Brazil has “invaded” the United States. Not in a military way, but in an economic manner. The symbiotic relationship that has developed, one which focuses on the exchange of products, services and tourism, among other things, is good for both nations.

Interestingly, and perhaps most importantly, this “invasion” does not take jobs away from American shores. Instead, it generates increased employment within the U.S.—a critical component for America’s recovery from economic stagnation. There is also a spin-off of job creation in Brazil as American firms reach out with goods and services.

The “invasion” touches many areas.

We will explore some in this week’s column and others in the next. Such is the vast extent of this BrazianAmerican cooperative.

The United States engages with Brazil on trade and investment through a series of initiatives. On March 19, 2011, U.S. President Barack Obama and Brazil’s President Dilma Rousseff signed the Agreement on Trade and Economic Cooperation to strengthen trade and investment efforts between the two largest economies in the Western Hemisphere. The agreement was created to expand Brazil’s commercial relationship and direct investment by providing a framework to deepen cooperation on a range of issues of mutual interest, including innovation, trade facilitation and technical barriers to trade. The agreement represents a shared commitment to broad economic growth and is intended to become a foundation for cooperation in other trades.

During President Rousseff ’s visit to Washington, D.C. on April 9th, 2012, The Economist reports, President Obama confirmed that the U.S. government will recognize cachaça, a sugar cane spirit used to make a Brazilian alcoholic drink, as a distinct product—no longer calling it “Brazilian rum” and applying tariffs intended to shield the Caribbean kind from competition.

The two leaders also found common ground on weightier matters.

Security co-operation will increase.

The countries’ defense ministers will meet regularly. And Brazilians—who spend so much on visits to the United States that the U.S. Travel Association describes them as “walking stimulus packages”— can now look forward to easier travel planning.

Encouraging Brazilian tourists to visit the U.S. is one of the most visible signs of the “hands-across-theocean” scenario created by Presidents Obama and Rousseff. The “gold rush” of Brazilian tourists willing to spend considerable amounts of money during their travels to the U.S. has been featured in many newspapers.

One of the largest outlet malls in South Florida reports that 68 percent of its sales are to Brazilians. About two million people from Brazil are expected to visit Florida this year, generating about 350,000 jobs in the tourism trade.

Traditionally, Brazilians love to visit cities like Miami, Orlando and New York – and have also found Boca Raton during their journeys. Tourism combines with family bonding as Brazilians not only hit the tourist spots, but also visit relatives in the area of West Boca Raton and Pompano Beach – a region many Brazilians call home.

From a business standpoint, other key factors have linked Brazil and the U.S. economically. We are not just talking about the fact that 27 percent of properties purchased in Miami last year were by the Brazilians. We’re talking about real participation in corporate America.

Today, a Brazilian company owns a portion of fast-food giant Burger King. Also, more than 50 percent of the orange juice consumed in Florida is produced by Brazilian companies located in the Sunshine State.

Gerdau, Brazil’s largest steelmaker, has more units and volume production in the U.S. than in Brazil. Likewise, in the manufacture of weaponry, Brazil’s Taurus has a larger production in the U.S. than in its country of origin.

A couple of traditionally American consumables how have a connection to Brazil. Anheuser-Busch, manufacturer of Budweiser beer, became a wholly owned subsidiary of InBev, a Brazilian corporation. The beer maker is now known as Anheuser-Busch InBev in the North American market.

Also, when billionaire Warren Buffet acquired ketchup-maker H. J. Heinz, he did so in partnership with Brazilian capital.

Recently, South Florida’s Barry University, through its Andreas Business School, has partnered with a Brazilian company to make continuing education courses available. The school offers courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Here is a rundown of U.S.-Brazil investments: • U.S. foreign direct investment (FDI) in Brazil (stock) was $ 71.1 billion in 2011, an increase of 10.8 percent from 2010.

• U.S. direct investment in Brazil is led by the manufacturing and finance/ insurance industry.

• Brazil’s FDI in the United States (stock) was $5 billion in 2011, up 266 percent from 2010.

• Brazil’s direct investment in the U.S. is led by the wholesale trade sector.

• Sales of services in Brazil by majority U.S.-owned businesses were $29.9 billion in 2010 (latest data available) while sales of services in the United States by majority Brazil-owned firms were $1.3 billion.

Earlier this week over 29 students graduated from the BraziClub Entrepreneurship Academy. The BrazilClub is a club created to serve the needs of the Brazilian Businessperson who are looking to further their business in the United States.

The graduation ceremony of its inaugural class was held this past

Tuesday.

“We are very proud of all the entrepreneurs who participated in our first class,” said Carlo Barbieri, the President of the BrazilClub.

“This shows the success of our Entrepreneurship Academy and the amount of interest from the Brazilian community

Fighting Knights Hold Off St. Thomas Rally for Fifth Straight Win

By Olivia Coiro Miami Gardens, Fla.- The Lynn University baseball team held off an eighth inning surge from St. Thomas to earn it’s fifth straight win. The non-conference victory puts LU at 21-9 overall. Kevin Lee pitched five innings earning his first win of the season. Lee allowed just two runs, one earned, on two hits while striking out one batter. Eric Pfeffer picked up his first save of the season in one and two thirds innings of work, while not allowing a hit.

Ryan Lashley led the Fighting Knights offense going three-for-five with one run scored. Enrique Perez, Jason Matusik, and Sal Giardina Jr. also recorded multi-hit games while each scoring a run.

After a scoreless first inning, St. Thomas took a 1-0 lead when Canizares stole second as Romero came home in a squeeze situation.

The Blue and White evened the score in the top of the third inning,

when Cory Elasik, who reached on an error at first base to start the inning, scored on a single up the middle by Perez.

An RBI ground out in the bottom of the third for the Bobcats would regain the lead, 2-1. The Fighting Knights did not back down, they scored two runs in the top of the fourth for a 3-2 lead. A one-out single from Matusik followed by a four-pitch walk to Stortini set up Giardina who singled down the right field line, scoring Matusik to even the score at 2-all. After getting down in the count 0-2, Elasik battled back for an eight-pitch walk. With bases loaded Joe Sharkey reached on a fielders choice, which scored Stortini from third while Elasik was thrown out at second on the play.

Lynn extended its lead to 5-2 in the top of the fifth when Ryan Lashley singled to left field, with Perez on second. Both runners advanced and then scored on a throwing error by St. Thomas’ catcher. In the bottom of

the sixth A.J. Fallleta came in to relieve Lee, but a lead off walk followed by a failed pick off would end his night. Peter Graffeo came in with a runner on third but Zayas, the first batter he faced grounded out to shortstop while the runner crossed the plate.

LU scored its final two runs in the top of the eighth. It all began with a lead-off walk from Stortini, followed by a single to left center from Giardina. Elasik reached on a bunt that brushed past the pitcher to third base, loading the bases for Sharkey. Sharkey recorded his second RBI of the day with a sacrifice fly to center field that scored Stortini.

With Giardina at third, Elasik stole second for his second swipe of the night. Mike Gonzalez grounded out to first base but earned an RBI when Giardina scored on the play.

St. Thomas scored one run on

two hits off of Kyle Butcher, who took the mound in the beginning of the eighth inning. After walking in a run, Pfefer came in for relief with bases loaded, an error by Lynn’s third baseman scored another run for the Bobcats. An RBI groundout for De Jesus was the final line of offense for St. Thomas as the fighting Knights would get out of the jam.

Kyle Young (4-2) earned his second loss of the season while striking out five Knights while Lee moves to 1-0 while pitching a careerhigh five innings with the start.

The Fighting Knights (21-9) travel to Florida Tech March 29-30 for a Sunshine State Conference match up.

The Blue and White is 5-1 in the SSC.

Miami Dolphins Host 3rd Annual Crowning of the Champions Miramar, FL – The Miami Dolphins hosted the 3rd annual Crowning of the Champions presented by Under Armour at the Miramar Cultural Center in Miramar, FL. In a red-carpet style ceremony, the Miami Dolphins in collaboration with Generation Nexxt, honored South Florida’s brightest youth football stars from some of the area’s most popular youth leagues.

“The event is getting bigger and bigger every year. We appreciate the growth of everybody who is following and celebrating the youth of South Florida,” Generation Nexxt Co-Founder Jonah Woullard said. “It’s huge that the kids can have a platform where they can see themselves on television and be appreciated for all the hard work they put in.”

32 cities were represented, including the top teams from Dade, Broward and Palm Beach County, with a variety of different awards being handed out to 2012’s top performers, including the best athletes, coaching staffs and squads from six different youth football

leagues (SFYFL, AYFL, GMPW, FYFL, NYFL, MXYFL).

The event started with the red carpet ceremony, as the nominated athletes came dressed to impress and walked down the carpet before they entered the event. The award show commenced in front of a capacity crowd with various presenters coming to the stage to honor the athletes.

Additionally, Miami Dolphins Youth Programs Director Twan Russell and Dolphins cheerleaders presented and handed out awards to the athletes. The organization presented some of their own distinct awards, such as the Presidential Community Service Award, which honored the board of directors of each youth football league.

“The student athletes worked really hard all year to get to this point,” Russell said. “It’s great to see them rewarded for all their effort, and I’m happy to see the kids get recognized. I look forward to seeing this event grow over the next few years.”
