All Joseph McNiel wanted for his 91st birthday was to visit the Wings of Freedom Tour of vintage World War II airplanes at the Boca Raton Airport recently. The Gainesville resident served as a tail gunner on an airplane, similar to one on the tour, during World War II in the 1940s. “When I went in I was 18, and I was19 when I flew my first mission over France on Sept 9, 1943,” said McNiel, who was visiting his daughter, Holly Novak, in Boca Raton.

• The Florida Lottery observed its 27th year of operation this month and the agency had a record year for 2014 with a hefty $5.3 billion in sales.

• Embattled Boca Raton medical supply company Medicare is back in business after being raided last week by the FBI. The firm has been the focus of a year-long Medicare fraud investigation by the U.S. Senate and one of the company’s top executives is Danny Porush, who is an ex-con and served jail time after being convicted in a $200 million stock fraud scam. The Senate investigation revealed in July that the company has a 68% error rate in Medicare billing for an estimated $57 million in alleged overcharges.
• South Florida tourism officials are predicting a healthy increase in international visitors for this year. Already seasonal bookings for resorts and cruises have shown a solid upswing and the trend is expected to continue. Biggest boost is coming from Canada, South America, the United Kingdom and Scandinavia. Terrorism in Europe and the falling Euro is putting a damper on travel while once active Russian visitors have all but dried up because of the recession caused by the Ukraine economic sanctions.
• Boca Raton based Office Depot agreed to shell out $68 million a California law suit charging the discount retailer with overbilling.

Currently, the retailer is in settlement negotiations with the states of New York, Texas, Missouri and Arizona on overbilling disputes. Office Depot has over 2,000 people on its payroll at its headquarters site in Boca.
• South Florida business leaders are not too enthusiastic about President Obama’s much hyped future trade ties with Cuba. Most are turning thumbs down with doing business because dealing with Castro’s communist regime is a major headache at best. Most Cuban businesses are state controlled and the country’s credit rating is at rock bottom with $11 billion in unpaid bills, plus the impoverished population has zero buying power.
• The old adage to sell phones in South Florida to first build a golf course is not true anymore. Many developers and builders are backing away from golf play because of expensive fees, mandatory memberships and costly maintenance. Developers are now offering club-like lifestyles with spas, restaurants, resort pools, tennis courts and organized activities all without a golf course or two and sales are terrific according to the developers.
• Rumors that giant retailer Kroger could make a move into South Florida is being recycled once again. Kroger has been mentioned as a likely competitor to Publix which dominates the market, but this time word on the street is that Kroger will take over struggling Winn-Dixie, who has 87 stores in South Florida and whose parent company is owned by a Texas based hedge fund. Kroger is the 800 lb. gorilla in the supermarket industry with over 2400 stores.

Community Three ‘War Birds’ Make Annual Stop in Boca
Continue from page 1
McNiel was among hundreds of veterans and others, who had the rare opportunity to visit, explore and learn about these unique and rare treasures of aviation history. On Friday, more than 300 students from
area schools toured the bombers while learning WW II history from local veterans. Mayor Susan Haynie and other dignitaries made special presentations. For a small fee, visitors had the opportunity to climb aboard the three war birds
– a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress “Nine O Nine” heavy bomber, the Consolidated B-24J Liberator “Witchcraft” heavy bomber and a North American P-51C Mustang fighter Betty Jane. The B-17 is one of only eight in flying condition in the United States, officials said. The B-24J and Full Dual Control P-51C Mustang are the sole remaining examples of their type flying in the world. The Wings of Freedom Tour is a flying tribute to the flight crews who flew them, the ground crews who maintained them, the workers who built them, the soldiers, sailors and airmen they helped protect, and the citizens and families that share the freedom that they helped preserve, officials with The Collings Foundation said. “These (the B-17 and B-24) were the backbone of our effort during the war from 1942 to 1945 and were famous for their ability to sustain damage and still accomplish the mission,” said Mark Henley, a pilot with The Collings Foundation, which sponsors the tour.
Despite the risks of anti-aircraft fire, attacking enemy fighters and the harrowing environment of sub-zero temperatures, many B-17s and B-24s safely brought their crews home, Henley said. “The P-51 Mustang was affectionately known as the bombers `Little Friend’ because they saved countless crews from attacking axis fighters.” After the war, many aircraft were scrapped for their raw aluminum to rebuild a nation in post-war prosperity and therefore very few were spared, officials said. The tour, in its 26th anniversary, visits about 110 cities in 35 states each year, touching the lives of 3.5 million people and teaching them about WWII, its planes and the men and women who served. “Reading about history is one thing,” said Deerfield Beach resident Sue Cohen, whose father served on a similar aircraft during the war. “Experiencing it is quite another. Nothing replaces actually being here and seeing it up close.”

MEET THE CANDIDATES For the Upcoming City Council Election
Tuesday, February 3rd, 2015 By Skip Sheffield
Slowly, surely and quietly a world-class orchestra has been growing in Boca Raton. The second concert of the tenth season of the Symphonia of Boca Raton Jan. 11 was simply superb. Guest director Gerard Schwartz led the Symphonia through an exquisite rendition of Richard Strauss’s Selections from Divertimento for Small Orchestra, op. 86. Accentuating the composition was the fine oboe work by Jeffrey Apanana and Erika Yamada. The biggest treat came when Gerard Schwarz introduced the guest soloist: his father Julian Schwartz. Schwartz senior is simply one of the finest cellists in the world today. His playing on Camille Saint-Saens’ Cello Concerto No. 1 was heavenly, transporting the audience to a higher plane. A note on the Boca Symphonia audience; they are the most knowledgeable and well-behaved group of music lovers I have seen in South Florida. This audience knows quality. After a standing ovation they wouldn’t let Julian Schwartz leave the stage. After three curtain calls Schwartz returned with his
instrument, sat down, and ripped off a cello solo that explored every possibility of that wonderful, sonorous instrument. After intermission we were treated to a beautiful performance of Gustav Mahler’s “What the Wild Flowers Tell Me,” arranged by Benjamin Britten. The concert’s climax was Beethoven’s mighty Symphony No. 1 in four movements, building and receding, building and receding until the crescendo of the Adagio climax. There were a number of younger people, mostly from Lynn University’s Conservatory of Music, at the first Symphonia concert. This time the audience was overwhelmingly senior citizen. I hope some younger music lovers get hip to the fact classical musical can really be cool. The next Boca Symphonia concert is Sunday, Feb. 22 in the Roberts Theatre of St. Andrew’s School. On the podium will be former resident conductor Alexander Platt for a program of Prokofiev, Mozart, Glass and Bizet. Call 866-MUSIC-01 (866-6874201) or go to www.thesymphonia.org.

Let’s Make It A Conversation By Joi Odom Grant
Let’s make it a conversation. Just last week we observed the national holiday honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a man of character and great accomplishments. An American hero for the world to see: There have been many conversations about Ava DuVernay’s movie Selma, which depicts one of the pivotal moments in the Civil Rights era and highlights the epic march from Selma to Montgomery. Dr. King was a great man in many corners of the world. So actually, what did the world see? Some saw a man with many gifts and talents;
others saw a man with a dream and a man with a vision. There were those who saw a man with a sense of urgency as well as a kind and pleasant man, and there were those who saw a man who feared the Lord. Dr. King’s civil rights victories and speeches in the United States were inspiration for those who were involved in racial injustice here and abroad. By 1964 the United Nations’ membership had doubled from its 1945 levels. Almost 75 percent of these new members were from developing countries that were committed to combating racial injustice based on the struggles of Dr. King in the U.S. and the racial persecution in South Africa.
Let’s make it a conversation. What did family see? As we look into our own lives what does our world see? I’m talking about our jobs, coworkers, neighbors, community, our places of worship or even our own social organizations. But what does your family actually see? Are you with me? Does your family say,.... “We don’t see much of you, everyone else gets your best, we get what’s left over?” Is it fair that the thing that should matter most is the least we give attention to - is it career versus family, world versus wife or entertainment versus children?
We often get caught up in our own professional careers and not realize that the people closest to us need us also and, at times, most. Should we then reevaluate our life’s focus but without short changing God’s gift to us, “our talents”, how do we balance both or all three? Let’s make it a conversation. We have to be in the plan if we want our legacy to appreciate or value our gift that God has given us! If we are away from our spouses or children, the legacy we truly live may be lost within our next generation. Follow Joi Odom Grant at Jog_urban.
POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.
You Can Develop a Better Attitude! There are situations in life which are difficult to resolve. Even then, they are not impossible to eradicate. People cannot hold on to past miseries and expect a joyous present. Garbage cannot be accumulated for years without causing toxic, even fatal, effects on one’s self and on others. People cannot hold on to bad memories or to accumulated resentments and still demand happiness now. That won’t ever happen! The retention of poison anywhere shall always adversely affect the surrounding environment. A wise individual fully recognizes that there comes a time when the only sane attitude is to exclaim: “Enough is enough! I must move
on without being bound to all the extra baggage which I’ve allowed to accumulate in my life; the toxic levels I have permitted to develop are truly killing me and adversely affecting some of my relationships.” Any advance in life requires a final farewell to what cannot contribute to a healthy and meaningful present or future. Many times, even good things have to be left behind in favor of something much better which can contribute to a progressive life of meaning. Nobody can advance in any endeavor while chained to anything, especially to unpleasant experiences of the past. The secret is to let go!
Many people endure a miserable existence by holding grudges, by accumulating resentments, by retaining hatred to individuals and situations which caused them distress in the past. If retaliation, and an unforgiven spirit prevails, nothing shall ever be resolved, and the misery one already experiences shall only retain its grip and augment in its intensity. So, why remain in shackles for so long when true freedom can be your portion? There needs to be a greater sense of urgency in dealing with these matters, by people prone to choose slavery instead of the enjoyment of full liberation. Nothing shall
ever be resolved when a spirit of vengeance, accusation, fault-finding prevails. What one inwardly wants to see resolved will simply increase its hold on the person dominated by self-righteousness. Sadly, some people also go to their grave with unresolved issues which never required resolution to start with. Many fail to recognize that sometimes the obvious is not the actual. Furthermore, one’s point of view depends on one’s point of viewing. Avoid irrational thoughts, attitudes, and self-serving suspicions and unreal expectations!

Lynn University Reveals New Fighting Knights Mascot
Lynn University today revealed Lance, the new mascot for its Fighting Knights athletics program. Lance will make his debut Saturday, Jan. 24, from 10 a.m. –12 p.m. during the university’s eighth annual Family Fun Day. “Lance embodies the spirit and strength of our athletics program,” says Athletics Director Kristen Migliano. “We wanted an engaging mascot who will champion our champions. Lance is strong visually and physically and his spirit is loyal, honorable and fun. We are looking forward to his first performance on Feb. 4, at our men’s and women’s basketball double header at home against the University of Tampa.” A committee comprised of student athletes, coaches, students and staff designed
the new mascot. His name was selected through a community-wide grassroots and social media campaign over the past several months. According to Olympus Group, who partnered with Lynn to develop the costume, Lance represents a new trend in mascot design. More universities are moving toward super-hero characters, thanks in part to the recent success of movies like Iron Man. “The Lynn Knight redesign is illustrative of the current trend and the ‘hero/warrior’ genre in general,” says Lisa Fricker, Olympus mascot shop supervisor. “The body is closer to human scale and proportion, but includes exaggerated musculature representing super-human strength. The new design embodies the progressive and dynamic aspects of the university while keeping the feeling of strength and tradition.” The new costume is designed for optimal entertainment and functionality. From a helmet that contains a fan to keep the performer cool during the grueling heat of South Florida summer matches, to the high-performance body suit and lightweight materials that ensure flexibility, to its realistic but extremely light-weight shield, sword and flag props. The university selected students to play the role of Lance. The identities of the anonymous performers will be unveiled at commencement ceremonies when the students graduate. Lynn’s former mascot, Big LU, was laid to rest in Bobby Campbell Stadium—also known as “the graveyard”—during the Lynn Knight Madness basketball event last October.

Obituaries Tony Baptista, 58, died on Monday, January 26, 2015, in Iguaba-RJ, Brazil. Born on November 14, 1956, in Brazil, Tony was raised in Boston until his youth when he got married to Elaine Baptista. He worked was an auditor at Citibank for over a decade. He helped as a deacon to start the Brazilian Baptist Church until when he went back to Sheridan Baptist Church where once again, he helped with the Brazilian services. When Tony retired, he helped the beginning of the Boca Raton Tribune but had to move back to Brazil due to health problems. Tony’s wife died two years ago due to a stroke, the couple leaves a beautiful daughter, Natalia Baptista, who still leaves here in Boca Raton, Florida. A memorial will be held in Iguaba-RJ, Brazil, on January 28, where Tony will rest next to his wife. John Thomas Shoup, 86, died peacefully Sunday, January 18, 2015. A
celebration of his life will be held in the future at his beloved Fisheating Creek in South Florida. There, family will gather and his remains will be scattered among the flowers and cypress trees of the old Florida that he loved. John’s many friendships evolved over the years while fishing, camping, canoeing, birding, and archeology digs. He sincerely loved the outdoors. He was a 1946 graduate of Palm Beach High School and a graduate of the University of Florida’s Architectural Program. He was a veteran of the Korean War serving in the US Army stationed in Iceland, where he met his wife of 56 years, Joy Ringo Shoup. John and Joy ventured to Colorado and then settled in South Florida, where he spent the majority of his working career in Boca Raton as a partner with Shoup & McKinley Architectural Firm. From 1960 to 1996, he shared his love of form and function while shaping the many buildings of Boca. He received an award for his design in Parks and Buildings, given to him in 1974 by Mrs. Lyndon Johnson for his unique concepts utilized in the making of Spanish River Park. He served on many boards and committees with the City of Boca Raton, including the Community Appearance Board from 1967-1982 (chair for 10 years). The creation of the CAB “helped create a unique community” on Florida’s southeast coast. Joy and he formed many good friendships in Boca, so it was a surprise when he “retired” and moved to Colorado. Not one to retire from architecture, he continued to help shape the city of Montrose and meet many good friends. One important project that he worked on was obtaining a sizeable grant for the preservation of the First United Methodist Church to establish historical significance. The friendships that they enjoyed in Colorado were lasting and made their retirement years wonderful. John continued to stay active with the local Lion’s Club, the Men’s Coffee “Bored” Club and other local groups. He and Joy were greatly missed when they had to move to North Carolina to be near family for health reasons. He is survived by his son, Ryan and his wife, Kim Shoup of Edgewater, FL; daughter, Laurie and her husband, Ron Pearson of Mooresville, NC; and grandchildren, Jake, Will, Samantha and Savannah. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Wild Animal Sanctuary, located in Keenesburg, CO. (303-536-0118)

Russian Pianist Elena Klionsky Performs Concert to Benefit Alzheimer’s Association
Elena Klionsky (r) with daughter Elizabeth Pipko and father Marc Klionsky
World renowned pianist Elena Klionsky performed the works of Frederic Chopin on Sunday, January 25th at The Chalfonte condominium in Boca Raton.

A Painful, Bitter But Convincing “Cake”

Why I Love Boca Raton!
As nothing very exciting happened this past week, kind of a lull after the holiday’s, I would like to reflect on why I love Boca Raton. My husband, Bob and I moved here 17 years ago from Montville, New Jersey. It was indeed a happy day when I put two snowblowers out on a Sunday morning at a garage sale I was having and they sold immediately. We packed up all of our posessions including our beloved Chihuahua, Paco and headed down to Virginia to take the Auto train to Florida as we had two cars. We had purchased a new home in West Boca in a new community called Saturnia, and we headed to Florida to start our new life as newlyweds. Well, let me tell you , it was one of the best decisions I have made in my life moving to Boca Raton! I lived for 20 years on top of a mountain in New Jersey and on cold winter days you could not get out of your house, as it was a sheet of ice getting down the mountain. We had power failures in freezing temperatures, could not get to the food stores and had a very long driveway covered in snow most of the Winter. When we arrived here in Boca Raton and felt the warmth of the sun, the beautiful scenery and greenery the convenience of shopping malls so close by and being able to get to all of your events without a Blizzard, I realized I had arrived! We met so many wonderful new friends and fascinating people here in Boca. We attended the opening of the Mizner Park Amphitheater as Yvonne Boice’s guest and sat in the box of the Countess De Hoernele where I met the Countess and Flossy Keesley and we all became good friends. They
both joined my Red Hat ladies group and we attended luncheons and events together. Yvonne Boice Zucaro invited us to many of the charity events here in Boca, such as the Hospital Ball, YMCA Ball, Doggie Ball, Chamber of Commerce, Palm Beach Film Festival events and many others and it warmed my heart to meet so many caring people who helped make Boca the place it is today. I was abled to meet some of the most charitable and interesting people who support our wonderful community down here including Christine Lynn. Phyliss and Harvey Sandler, Jan Savarick, Yaacov Heller, David Goldstein, Helen Babione, our Mayor Susan Haynie and many others who helped make Boca Raton the wonderful place it is. I am a joiner and I joined many of the different clubs down here. Life certainly was a lot more interesting. There were so many great restaurants with some of the best food I had ever tasted here in Boca. There was cultural all over the place with the Museum of Art, Historical Society, and the opening of the Amphitheater which gave us some wonderful shows to enjoy. We saw talent like Itzak Perlman, The Russian Symphony, Ballet and Josh Bell, the amazing young Violin virtuoso. We attended Flossy Keesley’s Birthday Celebration and her show of new Young Talent at the Mizner Amphitheater for several years and Flossy is still one of my best friend’s at 101 years old. Boca has changed over the last 17 years that we have lived here. There is more housing developments, more industry and many new restaurants. There are several great movie theaters, with amazing new seating and the new Wick Theater and Museum showcasing many Broadway shows and if you haven’t been there you must see there Costume Museum. Yes I have a lot to be thankful for. Thank you Boca Raton!

Jennifer Anniston’s newest movie is no piece of “Cake.” Yes, “Cake” is the title of a dramatic story by Patrick Tobin about a woman terribly damaged emotionally and physically by a horrific traffic accident that cost the life of her young son. People bear tragedy in different ways. Claire (Jennifer Anniston) is in constant, intense pain, which is barely diminished by alcohol and prescription drugs. Claire is angry; angry at the man who caused the accident; angry at her husband Jason Bennett (Chris Messina) for deserting her, and angry at her friend Nina (Anna Kendrick) for committing suicide. Claire is so angry she is asked to leave her support group because she is bumming everyone out. Any psychological counselor
will tell you the number one factor is a person’s emotional problems is anger, or “anger management” as it is now called. Claire’s anger is out of control. Jennifer Anniston has de-beautified herself by throwing away the makeup kit, stopped washing her hair, and allowed herself to be disfigured with fake scars all over her face and body. She is foul-mouthed, cruel and nasty. The only person who can tolerate Claire is her loyal, patient maid/caretaker Silvana (Adriana Barraza), and even she is at the end of her tether. The only ray of light in Claire’s seething story is the kind, British widower of Nina, Roy Collins (Sam Worthington) and his adorable six-year-old son. Jennifer Anniston really believed in this film to the extent she is executive producer as well as star. Surely director Daniel Barnz encouraged her to go for the gusto, teetering on the brink of suicide in what could be called an “Oscar bait” role. My problem is that I have known people like Claire in real life. When they take their own life it is a pain that never goes away. So as much as I admire Anniston’s performance, it is painful to watch. Yes, she is that convincing. Rating:

Setting The Team’s Expectations An important but often overlooked role of a leader is managing expectations for the team. This can involve individual expectations, such as performance, productivity, and goal-setting. But it also can pertain to organizational expectations, ranging from sales and profitability to corporate mission and values. To convey expectations requires being able to communicate not only what is expected of the team, but also why those expectations have been established and how they are to be achieved. This is often easier said than done, because it requires “buy-in” by individual team members, a mutual acceptance and commitment in striving to meet those expectations. Just because the leader thinks expectations are good and worthy of pursuing, that does not guarantee the team will agree. Well-established expectations share several key elements. These include being clearly expressed; measurable; realistic, and within reach, yet challenging. When I became a magazine editor for CBMC years ago, the publication was not highly regarded by the membership, its mission was unclear, and it was a true “periodical” because it was published only periodically. Once I settled into the job, I resolved to refocus the content of the magazine to make it more appealing to our members, redefine its purpose, and establish a firm schedule for producing the magazine on a consistent basis so readers would know when to expect it in the mail. Our team rallied around these expectations, we began pulling in the same direction, positive response to the magazine grew dramatically, and we were received awards from our peers for excellence. For models on how to set expectations for a team, there is no better place to look than the Bible. The Old Testament tells about Nehemiah who, after hearing about the
walls of Jerusalem being in great disrepair, surveyed the damage and then assembled a reconstruction team. From the start, his expectations were clear: “Then I said to them, ‘You see the trouble we are in. Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace’” (Nehemiah 2:17). Jesus Christ, of course, proved to be the greatest team builder of all, and from the start He established clear, compelling expectations: “As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will make you fishers of men.’ At once they left their nets and followed him. When he had gone a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John in a boat, preparing their nets. Without delay he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him” (Mark 1:16-20). Such a response, given the strong family and vocational ties these men had, indicates they all sensed a cause they wanted to join. At the same time, Jesus did not sugarcoat the expectations or make them unrealistic. He was straightforward when he told them, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” (John 16:33). Even Jesus’ parting words were filled with expectations to inspire His followers: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matthew 28:19-20). There was no ambiguity in what He expected them to do.

One Policy For Life “How long do I need life Insurance? Should I buy term insurance or a permanent policy? What happens if I buy term insurance and I need coverage longer than expected? How much coverage do I need?” These are the most often asked questions by people concerned about their personal life insurance. “How long do I need life insurance?” Does your family have sufficient liquidity today to protect your spouse and children? If not, when do you project to have sufficient liquidity or at what point in the future will you feel comfortable without sufficient liquidity? From experience, these points are likely to be further in the future than you project. If you know that your beneficiaries will always need liquidity upon your death, you need a policy with the option to be inforce until you decide, without ever being required to prove good health again. “What happens if I buy term insurance and I need protection longer?” It depends on when you realize that you need coverage for a longer period. With term, you must be aware of conversion deadlines or you may be left with nothing but the very worst options when you need it most. Typically, the guaranteed coverage period cannot be extended without current proof of good health. “Should I buy term insurance or a permanent policy?” Most people should consider a flexible premium, flexible duration policy with little or no surrender penalties. The amount of premium you pay is based on how long you set the policy to last. For 20 years of protection, the premium will be less than the required premium for the policy to last 30 years. Each year or two, review that decision and adjust the premiums as your goals change. This type of policy gives you the control to change the targeted duration period and the premium. You can buy a policy with the advantages
of term and the benefits of permanent insurance. What you must know to make an informed decision: • It is likely that you will lapse inforce coverage, both term and permanent, in favor of a better policy. Statistics prove that more than 70% of written policies are lapsed within 10 years. That does not mean your need for coverage disappears or lessens. It simply means that it is in your best interest to own policies allowing you to take advantage of better ones in the short, medium, and long term. • In a conventional term policy, your policy equity, or cash value is zero. • In a conventional permanent policy, surrender charges in the early years can levy a penalty equal to or close to paid-in premiums. Upon surrender in the early years, there may be no equity to take with you. Why do people surrender in the early years? Some may find a better policy, with better features and better benefits while others may have a change in needs. You want to own a policy with a high surrender value to premium ratio beginning in year one. • There are policies you can buy with no surrender charges or very little surrender charges. They are game changers. These policies provide immediate liquidity which grows tax deferred. The surrender value to premium ratio can be as much as 90% of paid-in premiums, as early as year one. • Policies with no surrender charges offer flexible premiums and can stay inforce until you decide the policy is no longer needed. Depending on how you structure the policy, premiums can be as low as term or as much as a permanent policy, or anywhere in between. That’s how you win in Life Insurance 2.0.

Property Owners Accuse City of Boynton Beach Strong-arms Tactics
By Dwellie Striggles
A Delray Beach couple is accusing the City of Boynton Beach of strong-arming them for their property to redevelop a section the city’s north end. Leon and Gail Jenkins said the city’s building inspectors have condemned their four-unit apartment complex at 132-134 W. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. although they have spent at least $40,000 to repair the property over the last four years. After a string of meetings, requests for permits, deadline extensions and a scheduled inspection, which became a no-show, city workers last week broke the locks on the doors of the newly remodeled property and began removing tiles and dry wall to inspect for asbestos, a procedure that must be done before demolition begins, the Jenkins said. Just days earlier, city workers removed the water meter and disconnected the sewer. The city in 2010 offered to buy the property. But their offer price was too low. “The mortgage is $160,000 and they wanted to give us $110,000, and we said, ‘No you need to give us something above that,’” said Gail Jenkins, who has owned the property since 1984. “They said, ‘It’s not worth it’ so we said, ‘Maybe it’s not but we can’t pay the mortgage with $110,000.” The city was then determined to get the property at any cost, the Jenkins said. Andrew Mack, the city’s building official, said the city attorney directed him not to comment on the matter because the Jenkins have filed for an injunction hearing. However, in an Oct. 29 memorandum from Mack to the Building Board of Adjustment and Appeals, Mack said the property has a history of neglect and is managed lackadaisically. Since the Jenkins took ownership of the property, there have been 73 code cases filed against the property along with 201 documented crime activities,” he wrote. “It is also evident by the current condition of the property, the owners are either absentee landlords or are planning on walking away from the property because the financial status of the property does not benefit them.” The Jenkins maintain that the city wants the last remaining lot on the block for its Heart of Boynton project, a residential area along Seacrest Boulevard between Boynton Beach and Martin Luther King Jr. boulevards. The area is comprised of 15 neighborhoods, which are primarily African American and Caribbean. The average household income is around $23,000. In January 2014, the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency board unanimously voted to draft development and purchasing contracts with Boos De-
velopment Group to bring a Family Dollar chain store on the southeast corner of Seacrest and Martin Luther King Jr. boulevards. The proposed development, which is across the street from the Jenkins’ property, is expected to be 8,320 square feet with up to 20 parking spaces. The CRA looks at the prospective development as a catalyst for the surrounding area. Two nonprofit organizations, Habitat for Humanity of South Palm Beach County and Boynton Beach Faith Based Community Development Corp., are building the 21-home Ocean Breeze West development on land just south of the Jenkins’ property. While driving by in April of 2013, a city inspector discovered that someone had tampered with a Florida Power & Light meter box. The inspector called the electric company, which determined that electricity was being stolen and disconnected the power from the house, according to official documents obtained. The tenants moved out and trespassers broke in, destroyed electric wires, plumbing, and ripped out tiles from the remodeled bathrooms, Jenkins said. The city in April 2014 sent the Jenkins a letter ordering them to repair and rehabilitate the building or it would be demolished in 10 days. They appealed and received a twoweek extension. “A second notice of unsafe structure was certified and mailed to the owner on Sept. 2,” according to Mack’s Oct. 29 memorandum. “Due to the lack of response from the order, a demolition order was issued on Sept. 15.” In a letter to the city, Jenkin’s attorney said they have worked tirelessly to comply with the city’s demands to repair and rehabilitate the building. “They have expanded funds approximating $10,000 for architectural drawings down payments to contractors and subcontractors, and permits and materials. Therefore, you’re clearly moving forward with rehabilitation of the above-mentioned structure,” Attorney Larry E. Schner wrote. “One such permit, plumbing, has already been obtained.” The Jenkins and their attorney said the city strategically created roadblocks that were costly and stalled the process. “When the general contractor attempted to obtain his permit, the city informed the contractor that he was denied the right to even apply for permit,” Schner wrote. “My clients inquired as to why, but refused a reason from the city.” The Jenkins had to pay a $250 fee to request a hearing to learn why the application was denied, the attorney wrote. “Further, with hearing pending and without explanation to my clients, the city demolished the driveway and sewer lines,” he said, adding, “This, despite my clients’ efforts to begin work with a legitimate plumbing permit.” The Jenkins has a court hearing on Thursday where a judge will decide if the city has grounds to tear down the building.

As Janice West rides along Southwest 12th Avenue to work each morning, she is pleased with the facelift, thanks largely to the new Village Square housing community. “I am very happy. I remember what that area looked like,” said West, who has lived in the community for 46 years. “This is night and day from what it looked like. I hope they could duplicate this all across the city.” Construction of Phase 1 of the development is completed and officials from the Delray Beach Housing Authority, residents and partners are gearing up for the official opening on Saturday, Feb. 7. The 10 a.m. event will be at 737 Village Square Circle, north of SW 10th Street and west of the Delray Beach Cemetery. “Village Square is the beautiful fusion of new housing and low-impact development with abundant amenities and diversity,” Housing Authority Chair Joseph Hepp said. The community formerly was called Carver Estates, a ¬¬¬200-unit deteriorating public housing complex rife with crime that was severely damaged by Hurricane Wilma in 2005. Its redevelopment is part of the Housing Authority’s strategy to support the overall revitalization of the western section of the city and create homeownership opportunities for 24 low- and moderateincome families, significantly altering the income mix in the neighborhood and generate an estimate $155,500 annually in property taxes, officials said. “This marks an important milestone for this community,” said Delray Beach Housing Authority CEO Dorothy Ellington. “Our vision – and the Delray Beach community’s vision − is a neighborhood where home-
owners and renters share public spaces and services, and where on-site and nearby educational opportunities provide a future and a path to success for our young people. It’s great to welcome all of these families to their new homes.” The project was funded by Delray Beach Community Redevelopment Agency, tax exempt bonds from Palm Beach County Housing Finance Authority, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and Project Based Section 8/Elderly only. Also, the Florida Housing Finance Corporation provided tax credits (LowIncome Housing Tax Credit Equity) and J. P. Morgan Chase, Hunt Capital, Citi Community Capital and RBC Capital Markets provided private capital. “Several workers, along with banks and private investors, nonprofit service providers, HUD, City, county, state, and federal agencies have collaborated to realize the collective vision for this transformed community.” Plans are under way to build a 9,000 square foot Office/Service Center to be known as the West Settler’s Service Center on NW Fifth Avenue. The center will house the Delray Beach Housing Authority and three low income housing units. Construction of Phase 2, 84 elderly Section 8 project-based units, is currently underway. “I look forward to watching this vibrant community grow and thrive for generations to come,” Mayor Cary Glickstein said. “I am grateful for the partnerships among housing professionals, government, private sector and community groups that have created this new beginning for a well-designed community.”

Ivy league physicians affiliated with Yale University believe their patented 4:1 ratio of EPA/DHA omega-3s are the future of fatty-acid therapy and deliver almost ‘super human’ results. Prevention Pharmaceuticals, the makers of Omax3® Ultra PureTM, have decided to poor memory, or mood swings, this formula giveaway 1,000 boxes in a massive initiawill help or you don’t pay for it. tive to get consumers to try it. “We believe one dose of this high performance 1.5g of omega-3 will change your opinion of fish oil with the dramatic results,” says Terry Tormey, CEO of Prevention Pharmaceuticals. Ultra Pure Formula Equals Safety Some supplements may contain more than just omega-3. And some of that "extra" content you could do without, such as saturated fats, including unwanted omega-6 fatty acids, and toxins like mercury, lead, and PCBs commonly found in fish. Freezer Test Proves Purity Omax3® was shown in lab tests to be 91% pure, free of bad fats and toxins. You can prove this by freezing your own fish oil. Put a pill of your store bought brand of omega3 in the freezer overnight. Then put Omax3® Ultra PureTM in the freezer overnight. The difference is clear. The store bought brand will be cloudy, even a solid white. This is caused by the bad fats and toxins solidifying, which your body doesn’t need. Omax3® will remain clear, which equals safety and effectiveness. Fewer Pills Better Results The patented delivery system gives you 1.5g per serving in just two easy to swallow liquid gel capsules, compared to the 6-12 you would need to take of a store bought formula. This means fewer pills equals greater results, you can feel. Pharmaceutical Strength You now get the extreme health benefits you deserve and at the lowest possible price and without the fish burps!

Boca Raton Soccer Wins 13th Consecutive District Title
When the Bobcats entered the District 115A tournament, they were the underdogs. With a 8-8-3 record, not many expected the sixth-seed Bobcats to make a run at their 13th straight District title, however the Bobcats saved their best soccer for the postseason, going 3-0 in the tournament and beating number one ranked Palm Beach Central 2-1 on Friday night. “This year has been different from the other years,” explained Junior Mark Faeth. “We came into the tournament with a av-
eraged record, unlike previous years. But we have been confident in our abilities from the start of the season.” Boca Raton Coach, Marcelo Castillo, who has been with the team for 10 years, was recently named the 2014 National Federation of High School Associations (NFHS) Coches Association Coach of the Year. Boca Raton moves on to host the District 12-5A runner-up in Thursday’s regional quarterfinals.
No. 16 Lynn Drops to No. 3 Florida Southern at Home
Lynn University’s men’s basketball team lost to No. 3 Florida Southern (17-1), 87-77, at home on Saturday afternoon. The Fighting Knights fall to 12-4 overall and 5-2 in the Sunshine State Conference with the loss. The 16th-ranked Fighting Knights were led by Aaron Harrison who had a team-high 22 points and 11 rebounds. Ben Berry continued to make shots from downtown as he put up 20 points with four three-pointers.
Berry drained a three-pointer to open the game with Lynn on top, 3-0, in the opening minute of play. Kevin Capers answered back with a trey to tie the game and the pace was set for the top-25 match up. FSC took a seven-point lead at 14:35 but Dante Scholl hit a shot from downtown to bring the game within four, 18-14 with 11:17 to go in the half. The Mocs pulled ahead by nine, 29-20, with 7:42 to go but Lynn answered with a pair of free
throws by Aaron Harrison and a jumper by David Johnson to trail by five, 29-24, at the six minute mark. Florida Southern led by as many as 13 in the final minutes and led 50-39 at the break. Florida Southern shot an impressive 53.5 percent from behind the arc and 43.2 percent from the field. Lynn shot 36.6 percent from the field and out-rebounded the Mocs 26-20. Additionally, the Blue & White scored 18 points in the paint and were led by Aaron Harrison who had a team-high 12 points and five rebounds. Berry added 10 points for the Blue & White shooting 50 percent from downtown. Lynn continued to put pressure on Florida Southern, trailing 61-58 with 11:44 to go, the Fighting Knights were amidst a 10-0 run. Harrison’s layup that capped off the run gave the Blue & White its first lead since early in the second half, 62-61. FSC would once again pull ahead with a 13-4 run over the next few minutes. Coach Jeff Price called a timeout for Lynn with 3:29 to go down by six, 76-70. The Mocs shot flawlessly from the charity stripe on multiple trips through the final stretch to hold
off Lynn for a ten-point victory. Harrison and Berry each had 10 points in the second half. Lynn shot 46.9 percent from the field and held FSC to 38.7 percent. After shooting 53.5 percent from downtown in the first half, the Mocs were held to just one-of-six three-pointers in the second frame. This time around, Florida Southern had the 22-16 advantage in rebounds but the Fighting Knights blocked four shots in a strong defensive effort. Stephen Battle led all scorers with 24 points while three other Moccasins scored in double figures. Harrison’s 22 points and 11 rebounds mark his second double-double of the season for Lynn’s senior guard. Overall, Lynn shot 41.1 percent from the field and made 80 percent of their shots from the charity stripe. Lynn returns to action on the road at Florida Tech on Wednesday, January 28, for a 7:30 pm SSC showdown with the Panthers. Fans can follow the action live at LynnFightingKnights.com.
