Dentist Keeps Local Kids Smiling By Fred Hamilton

Every Thursday, between seeing patients, Dr. Naved Fatmi and his staff can be found at Florence Fuller Child Development Center where they educate and promote the importance of oral health and offer fluoride treatment to young patients to guard against cavities. “What they do is very important to us because most of the families are low income families and they do not readily have access to dental care,” said Stephanie Ellis, director of clinical services. Knowing that oral health problems are the No. 1 cause of missed school days and that good oral health is a key component of overall health, Fatmi wanted to do his part. “We know that the mouth is the gateway to the body so getting oral health care early is very important for general health,” said Fatmi, who has built his practice on one simple premise: Provide every patient with optimum lifetime dental care. He realizes that dental insurance is a luxury many underprivileged children don’t have, which prevents them access to care. That’s why he and his team anticipate doing the dental cleanings and treatment each week. “They look forward to him coming,” Ellis said. He keeps them engaged and makes the process fun, she said.

MGC Investments Brings the Fun Back to Real Estate

By Kathryn Wohlpart

MGC Investments’ website proclaims they are an “Enlightened Real Estate Business” which means they “believe in God and trust that [the] business is guided by his higher power.” As an “Enlightened Real Estate Business,” MGC Investments has found ways to move the real estate business into the 21st century without straying from their vision of conducting “great business with everyone.” Being an enlightened business means three things to Acquisitions and Renovation Manager Marina Couto.

“[MGC Investments pays] our workers fairly and [is] loyal to them even if their price is slightly above average...we truly customize each home to make sure the renovations fit the style of the house and neighborhood… Finally, we give 10% of our net profits to charity,” said Couto. MGC Investments’ focus is on donating to organizations that work for orphans and the homeless and has donated over $20,000 in the last year. According to Couto, the reason for paying workers an above average price is due to the “outstanding level of workmanship” that is given in return. Each renovation is

customized, professionally styled, and uses top-quality materials. The product is top quality and sold for top dollar to help improve neighborhoods and to help “real estate values recover for the whole community.” After the real estate “bubble bursting,” homes in South Florida took a hit. Neglected homes caused health and safety hazards in communities and “attract burglary and vandalism to the neighborhood,” said Couto. These hazards cause a drain on homeowner associations who are spending money to try to prevent the problems from being brought to their neighborhood. MGC Investments often sets sale price records in communities and “almost always get to know most of the neighbors because they come to house to thank us for being there solving that problem,” said Couto. “That means that the next person who decides to sell their house in the area is much more likely to be able to get a higher price for their home.” MGC Investments acknowledges that the real estate market is highly competitive and that they must be different from their competition. Having high quality homes is

only the first step. The house is placed on the market before it is completed, exposed on major websites, and realtors are given the opportunity to sell the house before it is placed on the Multiple Listing Service. “But we also like to have a little fun in the process,” said Couto. “We once had a Poker Run event with five houses open at the same time and a lucky winner of $500.” MGC Investments has hosted Poker Runs with five open houses and a prize of $500 trying “to do something different and exciting,” said Couto. On June 3, MGC Investments is bringing the “fun” to Amberwoods in Boca Raton with gourmet food and “a taste of wine to wind down from the day…in the early evening so people are not so rushed and can really enjoy hanging out a little bit and mingle,” said Couto. Professional photographer Elizabeth Luvith will be set up to take headshots of agents in for them to use to update their social media and business cards. These headshots are being offered complimentary to anyone who RSVPs before the event. Elite Home Staging will also be in attendance for agents to talk to and learn about. “Unlike other companies we love to refer the great people and companies who provide us with outstanding services,” said Couto. “Many people don’t because they are afraid of competition. We are not because we stay ahead of the competition by constant innovation.”

Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program Hosts Inaugural Palm Beach County Wine Dinner The Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program held their inaugural wine dinner at New York Prime Boca Raton on Monday, May 19, 2014. Event co-chairs and Palm Beach County Advisory Committee members Dr. Krista Rosenberg and Robbin Newman, Esq. welcomed nearly 140 of south Florida’s community members to a sold-out event, which raised funds to benefit at-risk girls in all 24 public high schools in Palm Beach County. Women of Tomorrow Founder & President Jennifer Valoppi, Board Member Laurie Silvers, and Palm Beach County Advisory Committee Members Barbara Cambia and Deborah Martyn also attended the event, which helped to raise over $39,000 to fund the mentoring programs and college scholarships. Event Co-Chair Dr. Krista Rosenberg enthusiastically stated, “As a long-time supporter of Women of Tomorrow, it was a pleasure to introduce this life changing program to the patrons of Palm Beach County. It’s wonderful that our first event in Palm Beach County was such a spectacular success!” During the silent auction, as guests dined on a four-course meal paired with exquisite Trinchero wines, Jennifer Valoppi joined Dr. Rosenberg and Ms. Newman in addressing the crowd,

discussing the importance of mentorship programs and the goals of Women of Tomorrow. “Women of Tomorrow is a one of a kind program, that has a lasting and immeasurable impact on the lives of the young women involved. We have so many amazing professional women in Palm Beach County that volunteer their time to help these young women and it is so rewarding to see the community come out with such enthusiasm to support them all.” Highlights of the night included a special mentalism show by Magic by Mio, a world class magician from Miami, who has entertained many A-list celebrities. Mio dazzled the crowd that evening with his close up magic, and in addition to engaging dinner guests, he generously donated his own gift certificate which sold in a live auction at the end of the night. Event co-chair, and Women of Tomorrow Mentor of the Year, attorney Robbin Newman said, “We are thrilled that our inaugural event was sold out and so well received and supported by our patrons, sponsors and guests. Since we have already been asked whether this will be an annual event, we look forward to hosting another dinner later this year to support Women of Tomorrow.”

dences in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, and has offered his services at the Community Health Center in West Palm Beach. “Oral disease is a higher contributor to strokes and heart attacks than either cholesterol or triglycerides – and no one is really covering dental care for adults in need,” said the University of Florida dental school graduate, who completed his training at Shands Hospital. The payment Dr. Fatmi and his team receive for volunteering is even more than they deserve, the volunteers say. “It is great to be taking the opportunity share basic health information,” he said. “It is so much fun to interact with people and tell them things to do that are so simple, but to them are new.” In the end, he said, it boils down to remembering the basic social mandate found in every faith. “Those of us who can, I believe, have a responsibility to help those who can’t,” he said.

More than 500 students graduated from Lynn University recently and one got the surprise of a lifetime. As Meaghan Boutwell crossed the stage at Saturday’s day undergraduate commencement ceremony to receive her diploma, she saw her sister, Marine Cpl. Logan Boutwell, from the opposite side of the stage walking toward her. The sisters haven’t seen each other in more than a year. “I was told she wasn’t going to be able to make it, that she couldn’t take leave. So I thought she was going to be watching online instead of actually being here today,” said Meaghan through tears of joy at the event, which was held May 16 and 17. Cpl. Boutwell is stationed in San Diego, California, and just returned from a humanitarian deployment. The Boutwell family says they planned the surprise more than a year ago. “I’m glad that it’s finally over with and I

finally got to see her,“ Logan said. “I’ve been hiding out for a week and a half, so this is awesome.” Both sisters say they plan to spend time with each other before Logan is deployed again. Other highlights from this year’s commencement ceremonies: • The commencement speaker for both ceremonies was David Flink, who was also the keynote speaker during January’s Transitions conference. • An honorary degree, Doctor of Humane Letters, was given to Elaine Johnson Wold, a loyal friend to Lynn University and lead donor of the construction of the Keith C. and Elaine Johnson Wold Performing Arts Center, which was also the site of the 2012 presidential debate. • The evening undergraduate/graduate ceremony’s student speaker was Timea Varga, Lynn University academic web coordinator and adjunct professor who received her MBA in international business. • The day undergraduate ceremony’s speaker was Maria Isabel (Bel) Zelaya, who graduated Lynn with a major in international business and a minor in special education. Zelaya says she plans to continue her education by pursuing a master’s degree in special education.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen

Honor Those who Have had Profound Impact on Students The arrival of May signals a period of mixed emotions for me. In a few weeks, we will bid farewell to our students - some we have been waiting all year to usher off to a summer break. Then there are the graduating seniors who will embark on the world that awaits them after high school, be it college, the armed forces of the workforce. There were four students from my mentoring program who graduated this year. And while I am somewhat sad to see them go, it’s a ritual that I have grown accustomed to. After all, all four are headed for institutions of higher learning across our Sunshine State. And they’ll only be a phone call away. I had the pleasure of attending the commencement exercises for my beloved Village Academy recently and once again, it brought me such joy to see those 40 students elevate to the next level. [need another phrase] Grant it, it was the smallest graduation class in the entire Palm Beach County School District but it was, I’m sure,

the quaintest. After all, I have watched Village swell in enrollment since its embryotic stage in 2000 with just three grade levels to its first graduation four years ago. I am proud of Blake Pierre, our valedictorian, who will be studying infectious disease at the University of Miami and Wethnie Estinfort, our salutatorian, who will be attending Florida Atlantic University. This senior class has received acceptances to colleges and universities near and far and has many academic standouts. I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the leadership of Principal Guarn Sims who has been working tirelessly to build the evolving educational programs since he took the helm four years ago. I also attended an awards program, sponsored by Dare 2 Be Great Foundation, for 12 high school graduates who live in the city. These students are among the brightest minds to receive their diplomas this year. They will be studying medicine, chemical and biochemical engineering and fashion

marketing. One young man even turned down Harvard and Princeton to study mechanical engineering and nanotechnology at Stanford University. As I reflected on the cast of shining stars I have rubbed shoulders with over the last two weeks, I find myself thinking – ‘Who do you truly credit for their successes?’ I am left to think, yes, parents are always a natural choice. But I would award the prize this year to the hard working educators who rarely receive any thanks and recognition. After all, since we have halls of fame for athletes and entertainers, shouldn’t we afford the same degree of recognition to our star educators, and that includes guidance counselors and everyone who played a role in the nurturing of that student? Then I am reminded that instead of teaching being a normal highly regarded and highly paid profession where excellence is assumed, we have a medium-regarded and low-paid profession that we believe need psychological boosts like halls of fame.

Wow! Of course, an educator’s hall of fame would not solve all of our problems in education. But imagine what it is like for those teachers who after, in some cases, 12 years, to watch that rambunctious child – who many would deem a failure - walk across that stage and accept his or her diploma. I know my column is about the graduates, but there wouldn’t be graduates had there not be educators. Maybe I could be wrong, but I think it would encourage some young people to consider going into teaching. It would give appropriate, ongoing recognition to outstanding educators. A statewide hall would, support the hard but quiet work that continues day in and day out.” As these students rise to prominence and become world leaders, inventors and scientists, let’s not forget that it was those excellent educators who had a profound impact on their lives.

INTEGRETY MOMENTS By Rick Boxx

The Immeasurable Power Of Hope For some time now, I and some friends have assisted with a local “Adopt a School” program. One lesson I have learned through this involvement is the importance of hope. Children who have known and experienced grinding poverty and great oppression can be successful – if they are given hope. I do not mean, “hope so,” which basically means “best wishes” or “good luck.” I mean true hope, gained through seeing real examples of people that have overcome similar adversities, along with receiving practical goals and strategies to put them on a path toward a better life. Strangely enough, feelings of hopelessness are not confined to ghettos and disadvantaged communities. Our workplaces could use some hope as well. A recent Gallup survey revealed only 30 percent of workers feel excited about their jobs, finding them

meaningful and rewarding. Can you imagine – less than one-third of workers today approach their workplace responsibilities with enthusiasm? What if the other 70 percent understood their callings as workers and were given hope, a real sense they could escape the feelings of drudgery and frustration that dominate their every day realities? If they could find hope, I believe most likely they would become more engaged and productive. Instead of being excess baggage for their companies, they could develop into important, valued employees. How could this happen? There is no simple, instant solution. Sometimes workers look like the proverbial “square peg” trying to fit into a round hole. Their unique mix of skills and talents might be a poor match for the responsibilities they have been assigned to perform every day. They

might feel underutilized, or prevented from exploring opportunities to grow professionally and personally. They could feel stuck, like their job is a dead-end, without expectation for advancement. There are many types of proficiency and personality tests, along with motivational assessment tools employers can use to evaluate their employees and explore how to maximize their contributions to the company. In some cases, a dead-end job might indeed be just that, meaning the worker should be encouraged to pursue alternatives that would be more rewarding materially, mentally and emotionally.

hope can take its toll physically, as well as in other ways.

People need hope – the expectation or confidence that better things lay ahead and can be reached. Proverbs 13:12 wisely observes, “Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.” Lack of

With this in mind, why not take a moment and try to provide hope to someone in your workplace today?

Ultimately, followers of Jesus Christ find their hope in God, assured of His promises to care for us, provide for us, and guide us in every aspect of our lives. For instance, God gave this assurance through the prophet Jeremiah: “For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11). When we know God has specific plans for us and is diligently working to bring them about, how we not have hope?

POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

Build an Observation Post! Apart from being nosy, and meddling into other persons’ business, I suggest that every thinking and advancing individual should consider establishing an observation post. The idea is to live more aware of what is happening in the world, which sooner or later can and will affect us in an adverse or beneficial fashion! I know that it’s very depressing to watch local, national, and world news on television, or even just read the daily newspapers. Yet, only informed people can know when and how to act in the midst of rapidly changing conditions worldwide. People need to know of changing trends

in a variety of fields; one cannot operate unaware of maladies affecting certain populations of the world because it’s just a matter of time until that becomes a local problem as well. The same is true of devastating storms of various types which sooner or later may reach your geographical region after having brought much damage elsewhere. Humans cannot live in isolation from other humans regardless of the distances which separate them. In many ways the world has become much smaller on account of speedy travel and the good or bad things one can transport from one place to another, which

bring either blessing or curse, upon one’s return! Such “observation post” entails continual awareness of trends and new realities affecting large segments of the world’s population. We observe these things through meaningful conversations, watching the news on radio and television, reading pertinent articles in magazines and newspapers, absorbing in some manner the content of significant new books which can inform us well in some vital sector of our operation in the world. From your “observation post” you can be among the first to become cognizant

of calamities affecting other parts of the globe, and how you can respond to those left in desperate need on account of those conditions. Being part of the human family, we cannot ignore the adverse conditions created by wars, discrimination, slavery and racial hatred, religious persecution, and countless more evils being inflicted on fellow humans, both near and quite far. Keep your eyes open, maintain your mind in good functioning order, and let your hands and feet help produce and provide what can contribute to the alleviation of poverty, and other threats to the very survival of the human race!

Arrest for Domestic Strangulation And Felony Battery By Kathryn Wohlpart

On May 26, Byron McCollum grew violent towards his “live-in” girlfriend after suspecting her of calling his parole officer, Officer Heath Schur — McCollum was on federal probation for robbery at the time of the incident. McCollum found his parole officer’s number in his girlfriend’s cellphone and strangled her while threatening to “beat her to death.” McCollum’s girlfriend later informed police that he had strangled her for “several seconds” and the officer who reported to the scene noted that he saw “extensive redness throughout the circumference of her throat.” The strangling reportedly made the victim “urinate in her shorts” while McCollum continued smacking her in the forehead and yelling questions about her contact with Schur. McCollum held the victim’s arm while allow-

ing her to change her shorts before forcing her, at knifepoint, to go to the ATM with him. While at the Chase Bank off of N Federal Highway, the victim saw a chance to run and “jumped off [a] raised ledge” while McCollum pursued her. The victim heard McCollum screaming after he fell from the ledge. When “[the victim] turned to look and saw him bleeding profusely from his face” she continued running to Crown Liquors where she called the police. The police arrived to investigate the scene and look for McCollum. McCollum was found at Delray Medical Center where he advised officers that his girlfriend had struck him in the face with a brick. During the investigation the police reported that they did not find any bricks and arrested McCollum for simple battery, felony battery (domestic strangulation), kidnapping, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Two Arrested after Three-County Car Chase By Fred Hamilton

Two men were arrested after police said they led authorities on a three-county car chase that ended in Delray Beach on Saturday night. The chase, which involved as many as 20 police cars from various agencies, started with a carjacking in Miami, authorities said. It spanned more than 60 miles. Miami Beach police said two men carjacked the driver of a white Mercedes Benz earlier in the day. Police stopped a car matching the description on the MacArthur Causeway while looking for the carjacked vehicle and attempted to pull it over. Even though it wasn’t the car they were looking for, the driver took off and headed

west to Interstate 95 and continued north through Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. Authorities briefly lost the vehicle around Griffin Road on I-95 but were eventually able to spot it again and continue the chase around Sunrise. The chase came to an end just north of the Congress Avenue exit. I-95 was shut down for more than an hour. The U.S. Marshals were also reportedly involved in the chase. The driver was charged with aggravated fleeing. It was not clear what charges were levied against the passenger. One of the men in the car appeared to be wincing in pain after they finally gave up.

Twelve college-bound students who live in Delray Beach were presented scholarships from a nonprofit organization Tuesday at a reception at the Northern Trust Bank on East Atlantic Avenue. Along with the money, each student will be matched with someone from the city who can connect them with internship opportunities and provide advice. Officials from the Dare 2 Be Great Foundation hope the students will return to Delray Beach upon graduation from college and invest some of the knowledge they learned in their hometown. Delray Beach resident Morgan Russell and former Delray Beach mayor Jeff Perlman founded Dare 2 Be Great in 2010. They envisioned an organization that would identify future leaders and help them earn a college education while providing mentoring along the way. Today, at least 30 students have been awarded the scholarships. This year’s graduates from Atlantic High School are: Chelsea Valenzuela who will study medicine at the University of Florida in Gainesville; Chanty Fleurisaint who will

attend Florida Atlantic University in the nursing program; Kevin L’Herrou will attend the University of South Florida and plans to major in international relations; Carissa Longo will study biochemistry at the University of Miami; Michael Ostagne will pursue a degree in construction from Santa Fe College and the University of Florida in Gainesville; Anna Zarella will study fashion marketing at Johnson & Wales University; Arshley Thelot will major in accounting at Florida State University; Kirill Saflin will attend Sanford University and major in mechanical engineering and nanotechnology; and Shmar Cole will study health science and sports medicine at the University of Florida in Gainesville. Graduating from Village Academy is Wethnie Estufort who will attend Florida Atlantic University and study nursing. Dreyfoos School of Art graduate Elisha Porter will attend Florida International University and study chemical and biomedical engineering; and Ty Wotherspoon, who graduated from American Heritage High School, will study medicine at the University of Florida in Gainesville.

A Screwball Romantic “Love Punch” Heist

“The Love Punch” is a screwball romantic comedy heist caper for an older audience. The film, written and directed by Joel Hopkins, pairs the wonderful Emma Thompson with handsome, urbane Pierce Brosnan as a divorced but civil older couple who face bankruptcy on the eve of retirement. Richard (Brosnan) is president of a London company called Culco. One morning arriving at work Richard encounters his entire staff outside the building and a notice of foreclosure on the door. Richard assures the staff everything will be all right, but when he checks his retirement account, his balance is gone. Richard learns his business has been bought out by a French company called Lexon, which has looted the assets. Richard’s computer-savvy son hacks into Lexon’s site and discovers it is run by a man named Vincent Kruger (Laurent LaFitte). To add insult to injury, Kruger has just paid $10 million for a large diamond at a Sotheby’s auction. Kruger intends to present the diamond to his young, beautiful fiancée Sophie (Tuppence Middleton) as a wedding present. No doubt inspired by “To Catch a Thief ” and particularly “Topkapi,” Hopkins has given Richard and his wife Kate (Thompson) motive to cook up a heist scheme: steal the diamond, sell it and use the proceeds to reinstate the accounts of his former employees.

So begins a madcap misadventure as the amateur thieves first go to Paris and confront Vincent Kruger. “You bought my company and ran it into the ground,” Richard sputters. “You stole our money and we want it back!” Kruger admits that what he did was not ethical but he smugly adds it was completely legal. He has the couple bodily thrown out of the building. Back in England the couple’s best friends and neighbors Jerry (Timothy Spall) and Penelope (Celia Imrie) become concerned and decide to come to Paris to help out their friends. Timothy Spall is a dead-on comic actor and his deadpan Jerry is a delight. It seems Jerry has been everywhere and done everything unbeknownst to his wife, and he has a body full of hardware to prove it. The actual caper takes place in beautiful Nice, France as the four inept desperadoes blunder their way to their goal. There is a sentimental romantic core to all the shenanigans that you may or may not believe. I do not, but I do appreciate a quartet of British pros going through their paces. Pierce Brosnan is the closest thing we have to Cary Grant. Emma Thompson, well, she can do just about anything.

Three Ingredients That Keep You Coming Back (Simple explanation). The purpose of eating is to provide nourishment for the body that needs many different chemicals, in varying amounts, to function. No food contains everything we need, so we must eat different things. Simple! The body motivates us with hunger for certain foods to get us to eat what it needs. It is believed that humans are hard wired to search for salt, sugar (carbohydrate) and Fat in the same food. In nature this combination does not exist. However the great food companies of the world have been nice enough to provide foods that do contain all three. Yippie!!?? One bite, and this produces an almost insatiable need to obtain these foods and once we have them we will go back again for as much as we can eat. Also known as brand loyalty. Ever wonder what makes you eat so

much or what pulls you to eat some type of food. This may be the answer. Now you know why your salad dressing has oil (fat), salt and sugar. Ever wonder why there would be salt in your cookies and cakes, along with sugar and butter (fat). There are reasons for salt in baking; however the amount and when it is added are for flavoring. Ever wonder why potato chips are so hard to put down. A potato is very carbohydrate dense (sugar), it is fried in oil and then sprinkled with salt. Now you know why so many healthy foods do not seem to have any draw for you. They are lacking the magic three combinations that you have become (improperly), used to. So when you find it hard to put down a food that you know is not good for you or you go for a food that you are trying to avoid, it may not be as simple as what you once thought.

Discovering God This Summer Summer is a time for stepping back from the business of daily schedules and routines; a time for relaxing and rendezvousing with family and friends. But while the hot, hazy days have a way of lulling us into a lazy daze, this time of year shouldn’t be all play. If we will choose to be intentional, summer is also the perfect time to reconnect with God and grow spiritually. The break from the daily grind that this time of year gives us opens the space we sometimes need to refocus our mind and energy on God. You and I can capitalize on summer’s more relaxed atmosphere to make sure we are taking some of the practical steps that will grow our faith year-round:

There’s plenty of drama and intrigue to keep you engaged during your days on the beach. The gospel of Mark is a good place to start.

Summer goes by quickly. You can choose to drift through the next three months and get to the fall in no better spiritual condition than you are now, or you can choose to be intentional about using the summer to grow your relationship with God; to do a few simple things that will ensure you are enjoying deeper fellowship with him when the weather cools down and new routines ramp up. I look forward to seeing you at the God On Film kickoff! Every first time guest on June 1st will receive a free Cinemark movie ticket. Plus, you’ll receive my latest devotional book, Unshakable. More great summer reading! For additional information, check out our ad in this edition or go to www.BocaJourney.com.

• Talk to God – The relaxed pace of summer will likely give you more wiggle room in your morning routine. Why not take advantage of this time to start a morning habit of spending a few minutes in prayer? Start your day by thanking God for the ways he has blessed your life. Thank him for all of the good things that

• Spend Time with Other Believers – If church is something that gets crowded out of your schedule other times of the year, take advantage of the summer to get into the habit of attending regularly. Let me invite you to start by joining us at The Journey Church – Boca Raton for the June 1st kickoff of our new series, God On Film. We’ll be digging into the hidden meaning behind some of Hollywood’s biggest blockbusters. For service times and details, see our ad in this edition or go to www.BocaJourney.com.

To Sue or Not to Sue Q:Ten years ago I divorced my husband.

At the time I was earning good money at a job that I loved, with a great company. His earnings were only about ten percent more than mine, and we had only been married for five years, so we waived all alimony rights. I have been getting a relatively little child support because of our nearly equal earnings at the time of the divorce. Over the last five years my income has fallen about 50% due to the market conditions in my industry. At first I voluntarily changed jobs for a comparative salary. Within a few months I was fired from y new job because of lack of production in a commission job, as the times grew worse. I have landed a new commission job at about half of my old salary. I tried to negotiate an increase with my “Ex” with no success. I have a little money left and will use it if necessary to try to get a modification of my child support. The children are now 16 and 13 years old. My former husband still works for the same well known successful company that he did when we divorced, but I do not know how much money he is making now. How much will it cost to get the modification? Am I likely to win? Will winning be worth it for me? Winning a modification case for more

child support will depend on you being able to prove that your lost wages was a material, involuntary loss. Your original job change was voluntary, but not at less money. You were terminated from your second involuntarily. Your current wages are half of what they were at the time of your divorce. It appears as if you have an excellent case for a modification, unless your former husband has suffered a depressed income equal to yours. You will be able to determine that soon after a case is filed. Your costs will be limited, compare to your original divorce case as the issues are far more limited than in the original divorce case. The big question is whether or not the increase you are likely to win will justify the expense you will pay. Your oldest has two or three years more child support, and your younger five or six. I suggest that you pay an attorney a small amount to have him calculate the amount of increase you would win if successful, using your former husband’s old wage rate for starters. There is a risk he is making less, but continuous employment with this old company, a well known successful company leads belief that he still makes at least what he was before. For an hour’s worth of legal costs you can find out what your new child support might be, and you can determine whether or not the proposed litigation is worthwhile.

Home Improvement Tips to Prepare for The Summer Storm Season with the foundation of your home. Be sure you attach extensions at the base of all downspouts to carry the water away from your home’s foundation. Del Grande recommends a minimum of four feet.

2. Sump pumps

By Brandpoint

Spring showers bring summer flowers, but they’re also an indicator that the summer storm season is right around the corner. And some of those storms can be severe. Water and storm damage to your home can quickly add up and potentially leave your family in danger, which is why it’s a good idea to conduct a spring checkup of your home. Ed Del Grande is a master contractor and nationally syndicated home improvement expert. He recommends that all homeowners follow these five tips to make sure their homes and yards are ready for wet and stormy weather:

1. Gutters and downspouts

If a gutter fails, it can cause problems

Across much of the country, basements will have sump pumps installed to remove excessive ground water. Get this system checked before the storm season starts. A failed system in the middle of heavy rains could result in a flooded basement, causing damage to the floor, walls and any items stored in the room.

3. Roofing and shingles

Hire a professional roofing contractor to inspect the shingles and roof gutters for any damage that might cause leaks during heavy rains. If heavy or large hail hits your area, ask the inspector to come back to reevaluate the shingles.

4. Standby generator

Summer storms can cause the most

damage if you lose electricity. Weatherrelated power outages have doubled since 2003, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Without electricity, your sump pump will stop, your refrigerator won’t be able to keep your food chilled and your home security system won’t work. To keep your home secured and operating without power, Del Grande recommends installing a permanent standby generator system. A standby generator like those from Kohler is a backup electrical system located on the outside of your home that turns on automatically when power is lost. Standby generators run on propane or natural gas, so they don’t need to be refueled, and they provide quality power that won’t damage appliances or electronics. They can keep all the essentials running – like the sump pump, your heating or air-conditioning, large appliances, lights and the security system, making it possible to protect your home from additional storm damage. Having backup power is critical for homes with children, the elderly or anyone with special medical needs. If you lose power for a short period

of time or several days due to severe storms this summer, a Kohler standby generator will turn your home into an energy oasis in your neighborhood. To learn more about standby power and to determine what size generator best suits your needs, visit KohlerGenerators. com.

5. Landscaping

Trees provide beautiful shade and backyard homes for birds and squirrels, but they can also cause great damage to a home during a storm. Hire an arborist to trim back limbs that hang over the house, or to remove trees completely if they are too close to the home. Broken branches or toppled trees frequently cause power outages and property damage during and following storms. Severe weather can strike any area of the country, sometimes with little or no warning. If your home is vulnerable to tornados, thunderstorms, hurricanes or heavy rain, use these tips from Del Grande to best prepare your home for whatever Mother Nature sends your way.

Pain Doctor Discovers Blood FlowBusting Material Into ‘Miracle Socks’ for Diabetics and Foot Pain Sufferers!

BOCA RATON TRIBUNE WORSHIP DIRECTORY

Breakthrough circulation-boosting fibers improve blood flow, relieve swelling, boost oxygen flow, and eliminate foot fatigue - naturally in as little as 5 minutes!

What part of your swollen, tired, or achy feet would you like to see ‘go-away’? If you suffer from poor circulation, injury, swelling or any condition that leaves your feet fatigued and sore, then read on to discover the breakthrough that can change your life. Good news comes in the form of a ‘pain-busting microfiber’ that is used to weave a circulation-boosting sock, called BambusaTM. Better Blood Flow The ‘miracle sock’ is made from a new, patented aniontechnology that is weaved into every strand of thread used to make a BambusaTM sock. This special micro-fiber thread is made from revolutionary bamboo charcoal to stimulate blood flow and revitalize feet. When this material comes in contact with body-heat it is proven to release circulation-boosting ions. The 3D-weave technology used in the material has been compared to infrared light therapy to help revitalize stiff and sore muscles. The manufacturer, who also makes a back and wrist sleeve, says the material provides almost instant relief to any part of the body it touches, making it ideal for diabetics, athletes, inflammation, stiffness and swelling. Anne M. from California agrees. “Bambusa socks are absolutely the most comfortable socks I have ever worn! My feet are no longer fatigued!” Therapy Without A Prescription! When the socks were photographed using a thermographic imaging camera, results showed up to a 17% to 22% increase in blood flow. This helped to improve muscle oxygenation and decrease foot fatigue. The socks have been proven to provide extended relief from cold, swollen and fatigued feet. Doctor Recommended Pain specialist of 30 years, Dr. Jahner comments on the 3D-weave technology. “Infrared therapy has been used for years at medical clinics to treat vascular and circulatory conditions. Physical therapists

The infrared anions generated by the charcoal bamboo increase blood flow and deliver oxygen to the tissues. After wearing for only minutes there is an increase in temperature due to the increased blood flow, resulting in improved comfort and reduced swelling. Twenty minutes after using the anion-fiber infused socks, patient has better blood flow and less numbness.

use infrared therapy to speed recovery. Better blood flow equals less pain. This microfiber works much the same way.” "Circulatory dysfunction affects MOST of the adult population in the United States. Heart Disease, Strokes and Diabetic conditions are at epidemic levels; anything that improves circulation improves cellular health and vitality. I use the Bambusa product myself and recommend it to my clients. It really works!” states Dr Jahner. Results in Minutes? John G. of California claims he felt immediate results with his tired, swollen feet. “Without exaggeration the relief was almost instantaneous. It is like a heating pad set to low and wrapped around my calf. I will be replacing my entire set of dress socks with these socks!” Relief for Tired, Swollen Feet BambusaTM socks are not a medical device or compression socks because they don’t restrict blood flow. Utilizing the special negative-anion technology, they comfortably increase blood flow and oxygen to tissues. “My feet felt wonderful, cool, and I never got that pins and needles feeling anymore. I love my BambusaTM socks,” says Nancy, from NJ. They are ideal for diabetics and those suffering from neuropathy or injury from repetitive use. BambusaTM socks can also bring comfort to tired legs within minutes of putting them on, energizing individuals who spend long hours on their feet. Goodbye to Pain and Numbness Marilyn H. has suffered persistent foot problems for years and noticed fast results. “The issue for me was per-

sistent numbness in my toes - it was gone completely after a few days of wearing these socks! Being diabetic, I never had pain-free feet UNTIL NOW!” “I went out on the golf course for 18 holes of golf, and when I got home my feet weren’t swollen, they weren’t sweating and my feet didn’t hurt,” says Lou B. from New York. BENEFITS: • Increased blood flow and oxygen • Reduced swelling and pain • Anti-microbial • Wicks away moisture • Increased range of motion IDEAL FOR: • Neuropathy • Raynaud's Syndrome • Cramping • Cold Feet Tom from NJ reports, “I suffer from chronic foot cramps. My feet were sore for days after the cramping. My wife gave me the BambusaTM socks, I wore them, and the foot cramps stopped. I replaced all my socks with BambusaTM.

National Enquirer Packing Its Bags for New York By Fred Hamilton

After more than four decades of calling the Sunshine State home, the Boca Raton-based National Enquirer is shifting its headquarters and heading back to its New York roots next month. The supermarket tabloid’s new editor in chief has been given a mandate to broaden the paper’s audience and give it some Internet-age flourish. “This is a move that is designed to build on the extraordinary,” said Dylan Howard, 32,

who also is the editorial director of RadarOnline. Howard, who was recently named vice president for news at American Media, will keep his title with RadarOnline. Radar and the Enquirer will remain separate, each with their own staffs, but Howard said there would be “closer collaboration” between the titles and that the Enquirer would seek to bolster its online offerings. Radar dwarfs the Enquirer in online traffic, boasting 138 million monthly page views by more than 13 million unique visitors, according to American Media Inc., which owns the titles. It has made a name for itself with explosive online offerings such as audio of Mel Gibson’s rants. The Enquirer, by

comparison, has continued to be a printcentered product, cajoling the curious to buy with scoops, from a photo of Elvis Presley in his coffin to exclusives on John Edward’s affair. It attracts just 4.8 million monthly page views by 723,000 visitors. Howard said he believed the publication could garner some younger readers under his leadership. The median age of readers of the Enquirer’s print edition is about 49; its website readers are about 54. “The Enquirer has had a laser focus on an aging audience,” he said. “I think we can find a youthful audience and appeal to a slightly wider demographic.” Outgoing editor, Tony Frost, will oversee the

Globe, National Examiner and the British edition of the Enquirer. Tony Frost also will preside over special issues — all of which, the company said, generate $100 million in revenue a year. The Enquirer brings in another $100 million, the company said. The National Enquirer began in 1926 as The New York Enquirer. It first moved to Florida in 1971 and has spent all but a few years of the time since based in Boca Raton. It previously decamped to New York for several years. Its Florida headquarters was also displaced when AMI was ordered from its building on Oct. 8, 2001, three days after a photo editor died after a letter containing anthrax spores was opened.

The Shrimp House Brings Brazilian Flavors to Boca Raton

By Kathryn Wohlpart

With two successful openings in the last year, Shrimp House is moving to the Boca Town Center Mall on June 9, bringing its Brazilian flavors to Boca Raton. Known as Vivenda do Camarão in Brazil and Paraguay, Shrimp House is a seafood and pasta restaurant with 160 locations in other countries. The Shrimp House first opened its doors in Brazil in 1984 and is now expanding further into America. “By 2016 The Shrimp House will be ready to launch its restaurants in

other American states such as Texas and California,” said Shrimp House LLC President and Oxford Group CEO, Carlo Babieri. Shrimp House is opening two locations within the Boca Town Center Mall, one food court style restaurant and one sit-down dinner style restaurant. These locations of Shrimp House will be the largest built in the United States yet. With intricate ceiling details and the teal and orange signature colors of The Shrimp House restaurants, the full-dinner style restaurant will feature “a state of the art conference room”.

The Shrimp House uses “healthy ingredients,” like Omega-3 oil and “only farmraised shrimp imported from Brazil to prepare its fine food items, thus maintaining all the wonderful flavor and quality of the meals,” said Babieri. The chefs at Shrimp House offer the “best taste” you can get from a shrimp using a “special flavor by using a variety of exotic and exclusive ingredients imported from Europe, Asia and Latin American,” said Babieri. The Shrimp House has recently joined the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce

www.bocaratontribune.com

who is planning the grand opening in the Boca Raton mall from 5:30 to 7:30 pm on June 9. A ribbon cutting will be followed by a food tasting for invited guests. Mayor Susan Haynie and other representatives from city and civic groups are expected to be in attendance. Ambassador Helio Ramos, Consul General to Brazil in Miami, and Shrimp House founder Fernando Perri and his sons, Rodrigo and Diego, who are partners in the firm, are also expected.

Giardina, Jr., completed the feat with the announcement of the American Baseball Coaches Association/Rawlings All-America team. He has now been awarded All-America honors by the ABCA, Daktronics and NCBWA. The Tampa, Fla., product blossomed in his senior year, leading the team and ranking in the top-10 of the Sunshine State Conference with a .359 batting average, 37 runs scored, 40 runs batted in, 15 bean balls

and a .484 on-base percentage. Additionally, he hit 16 doubles and five home runs. Giardina garnered SSC Player of the Year accolades, making Lynn the first school in conference history with three consecutive Player of the Year honorees. He was also named the ABCA and NCBWA South Region Player of the Year. Giardina played most of his games at catcher, where he threw out 30.3 percent of base runners, but also saw time at first base and

shortstop. In two seasons with the Blue & White, he batted .327 with 23 doubles, 11 home runs, 61 runs and 64 RBIs.

Strikers Lose to Tampa Bay Rowdies 3-2 on a Late Goal The Fort Lauderdale Strikers faced their upstate rivals Tampa Bay Rowdies (2-3-2, 9 pts) needing a win to stay within striking distance of first place atop the NASL table. But a gut-wrenching, late goal by Tampa Bay’s Blake Wagner gave the Rowdies the 3-2 win at Al Lang Stadium. The Strikers were forced to play the second half down a man after Carlos Salazar who had received a yellow card in the 35th minute, received his second yellow in the 41st minute and was sent off. The Strikers got on the board first with another great goal by Mark Anderson in the 19th minute. Anderson received a ball from Marius Ebbers and chipped the ball over the keeper to give the Strikers the 1-0 lead. Strikers keeper Oka Nikolov, who had a spectacular night made a great save on 28th minute when Tampa’s Christopher Lallet received a cross just a few yards from the goal and tried to even up the score, but Nikolov was able to stop it with his feet and keep the Rowdies from scoring. In the 32nd minute, Matt Hall came in for Fafa Picault who went down with an injury. Just a few minutes later, Hall made a great pass to Ebbers from about midfield to the top of the box. Ebbers centered the ball to Shawn Chin who scored on a header, making the

score 2-0 in favor of the Strikers. Just three minutes later, Hall took down the Rowdies’ Georgi Hristov inside the box and the referee gave the Rowdies a PK. Hristov took the shot but Nikolov made a diving save to his right, keeping the Rowdies out of the net. In the 45th minute, the Rowdies were able to cut the Strikers lead in half when Willie Hunt was able to score on a header off a corner kick, sending the teams to the locker room with a score of 2-1 in favor of the Strikers. Nikolov continued to make great saves in the second half, but the Strikers were unable to stop the constant Rowdies attack, giving up two goals in the second. The Rowdies had 16 shots on goal in the game. Rowdies Anthony Wallace was able to beat Nikolov with a strong shot from outside the box, tying the match at 2-2 in the 62nd minute. The Strikers second substitution of the match also came due to an injury as Chin went down in the 69th minute and had to be replaced by Colin Murphy. The Strikers were hoping to salvage a point and hold off another late Rowdies attack, but Wagner scored a dramatic extra-time winner to defeat the visiting team.

Spanish River Educator Using the ‘Muscle of the Vote’ to Help Students be Healthy By Jason Schwartz

A local high school teacher who doubles after work as a fitness guru wants to raise awareness of the dangers of childhood obesity by taking his vast knowledge of health and fitness across the United States. “My goal is to try to teach others about childhood obesity,” said Randy Weddle, who is in his 35th year of teaching. “Every day at school, I see kids getting heavier, and moving slower…bringing junk food to school, and making the wrong choices about how to nourish their bodies. I want to change this.” Weddle, 61, who has been teaching at Spanish River High for 31 years, is competing in a contest to appear on the cover of the November issue of Men’s Health Magazine. The publication is taking a brief hiatus from male models, celebrities and chiseled athletes on its cover. The magazine generally looks for a man it deems representative of the publication’s values — and that doesn’t necessarily translate to having a ripped six pack, but it wouldn’t hurt. “I feel if I can get into Men’s Health Magazine, I can speak my mind about this disease as an educator,” said Weddle, who

changed his diet and workouts after he was diagnosed with malignant melanoma cancer 28 years ago. “Early on in life, I knew how important it was to be in the best shape to perform to the best of your abilities.” In a first for the U.S. edition, the title is gearing up to feature a mere mortal. The lucky man will be weeded out by a search committee and then handpicked by a small panel of judges that will include editor in chief Bill Phillips and designer Kenneth Cole. Weddle and other aspiring models have been submitting their entries on mhguysearch.com. They also auditioned in Miami among other cities. In July, the top three finalists will be flown to New York for a cover shoot and to make their final pitch for the gig. “Even though I teach TV production and media studies, I try to instill in my students the virtues of eating right, working-out, and being as healthy as they can possibly be. It’s good for the body, and the mind,” Weddle said. “Over the years, I have inspired many students… I still get messages and letters from students 30 years ago who tell me they are in great shape because of my advice. I role model for them, and they take it all in.” To use your ‘muscle of the vote’ to vote for Weddle to be “The Ultimate Men’s Health Guy” go tohttp://www.mhguysearch.com/entry/38/ uqfqv3ounfd12pho1haoih80u5. You can vote daily up to June 28, when the judges select the top 20. Mr. Weddle is now ranked in the top 10.

Twist and Arch The golfer squeezes the last three fingers of the left hand as he arches his hand. The left thumb points to the ball and now the secret is applied as palmar-flexion brings an arched and convex wrist into the ball. Here is the way Hogan set up his left hand for the stress of impact. The right hand holds its concave set. The left hand is arched and bulges in a convex position toward the target. That my friend is hitting the ball with the back of the left hand.
