COMMUNITY Boca West Country Club’s Charlotte Owensby, Wins Gold At Prestigious Tennis Tournament
Boca Raton’s Charlotte “Cha Cha” Owensby and her teammate Corey Gauff recently won the prestigious Coupe Le Blanc in Quebec, Canada. Charlotte was selected as one of two American 12-andunder girls to represent the United States at this 10-country international team competition. The pair captured gold medals and the Coupe Le Blanc trophy for the United States. Cha Cha trains on her home courts at Boca West Country Club and is ranked #1 in Florida and #2 nationally within her
age group. The competition was held from August 10th - 16th in Montreal. “At times, the girls performed under great pressure. After Charlotte and her teammate lost doubles to Russia, they rallied to win their singles matches, advancing to the final facing Canada. In this match against Canada, after winning doubles, Charlotte clinched victory for the duo with a followup singles win” said her dad, Charles. Earlier in the year, Charlotte progressed to the semi-finals of the Open Super 12 tournament in Auray, France, one of the premier international 12-and-under tournaments. Charlotte is the daughter of Charles and Jennifer Owensby, residents of Boca West Country Club, and the granddaughter of Henry and Merry Kessler and Louise Owensby, also residents of Boca West. Charlotte is entering the 7th grade, class of 2021 and her overall record is 71-15. Charlotte’s sister, Maggie, who is 16 years old, is ranked #1 in the state in her age group, as well. “Everyone at Boca West is so proud of
Charlotte’s accomplishments and we look forward to her future success, along with Maggie’s,” Jay DiPietro, CCM, President/ CEO/General Manager, Boca West Country Club, said. Boca West’s tennis facilities feature a lighted stadium court and seating for over 300, plus access for members to U.S. Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) staff for tennis clinics and private lessons for instructions, drills and strategies. Boca West Country Club, the number one residential country club in the United States is also the proud recipient of the 2013 U.S. Tennis Association (USTA) Outstanding Tennis Facility Award. Tennis enthusiasts looking for superb amenities in a beautiful private country club setting have the opportunity to see many WTA and ATP touring pros and other world-class players who frequent the courts. The Tennis Center features 30 Hydrocourts; three are lighted for night play, along with one U.S. Cushion court with four Pickleball courts. The Tennis Center is a sought-after draw
and destination, hosting championship tournaments and exhibitions, including the USTA French Open Wild Card Tournament, held from 2006-2010. First-rate former and current players are the norm at such events, and have included Chris Evert, Jennifer Capriati, Martina Navratilova and the Bryan Brothers and many others. Competition isn’t limited only to the pros. Boca West offers eight men’s leagues and five women’s leagues that challenge other clubs in Palm Beach County.

School Officials Concerned With State-Mandated Assessments By School District Public Affairs
Palm Beach County School District leaders remain concerned with the Florida Standards Assessment and the state’s high-stakes accountability system despite a study upholding the validity of the state-mandated assessment test. Those concerns include questions about the test’s administration, particularly the computerbased portion of the assessment; the alignment of Florida’s standards with the questions that appear on the test; and the use of Florida Standards Assessment (FSA) scores to evaluate the performance of students, teachers and schools. “We appreciate the state’s review of the test. However, the results of the study have not changed the feelings of teachers, parents, students and other stakeholders throughout Florida,” School Board Chairman Chuck Shaw said. “Fundamental issues remain with Florida’s accountability system that must be addressed by the Legislature.” More than 90 percent of stakeholders who responded to a community survey conducted by the District last year supported delaying the use of FSA results to determine school grades, student promotion, graduation, or for teacher evaluation, officials said. The District’s in-depth review of the state’s 186page validity study, released earlier this month, raises significant questions about the FSA, including: • Lack of alignment between the Florida Standards Assessment and what is taught in the classroom. For example, the validation study shows that for the Grade 3 English Language Arts test, 33 percent of test items were not aligned to state standards. On the Grade 10 ELA test, 20 percent of the test questions did not align to state standards.
• Problems with computer-based testing underlies the need for a phased implementation of these tests. In March, the School District delayed computer-based testing for two days after students were unable to log into the state’s portal due to technical issues with the vendor. A phased implementation would allow more time for the state and school districts to work out potential issues with computer-based tests, and eliminate the delays and loss of instructional time that were experienced in the last school year. • Use of FSA results to evaluate teacher and school performance. Some classes may have been disproportionately affected by test administration issues, but since there is not a reliable way to measure those effects, results for those schools or classrooms would be skewed. Teachers and schools should not be judged on their performance if the test’s administration had serious system issues affecting a significant number of schools. “Assessments are a valuable tool, but the way we are administering them in Florida needs to change,” Superintendent Robert M. Avossa said. “The Legislature needs to take a hard look at how often they are testing students, and how those assessments align with what is being taught in our classrooms.” Even before problems emerged with the FSA, the School District and the School Board have sounded the alarm against too many tests and the high-stakes nature of the assessments. School District leaders last year reduced the number of district-required assessments to lessen the burden on students, and the School Board in September passed a resolution on accountability that called on state leaders to delay the use of FSA results in determining student promotion, graduation or for teacher evaluation.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen
Imagine A Classroom With No Books Just when you think you have heard the worst of the war stories about the need in our classrooms, there is always one that tops it. I received a text, a few days ago, from a friend asking for my help in securing some much-needed resource for her class at a Broward County school. She was in her second week at her new school, after spending the last 12 years in the Palm Beach County School system. And oh, what a wakeup call it was for her. Let this be a lesson to all those who complain about conditions at their jobs, in particular - schools, the grass always seems greener on the other side. Over the years, I have heard firsthand from so many former Palm Beach County teachers who went to schools in Broward County and Georgia. They had praises for what they left behind. I recall one teacher saying, “We don’t get the salaries but we sure get the supplies in Palm Beach County.” Only days after starting, my friend realized that she was desperately in need of a class-
room library and a Reading Record kit. The kit, which costs $575, allows a teacher to assess the students’ current reading level so the teacher can instruct them at their level and help them to become better readers and eventually lifelong readers, she said. Usually, it would be the school’s responsibility to provide these things but this school does not have the funding for the basic necessities, let alone new books, she told me. The school is located in a low-socioeconomic neighborhood and books are not something that parents readily purchase for their children, she continued. Therefore, as you can imagine, the love of reading must come from the teacher. This teacher inherited a classroom without many books. And the few books in her room were molded, outdated or ripped and had to be thrown out. As a fifth-grade teacher, she clearly understands the importance of the reading habit as she has long supported “balanced literacy” instruction, which includes independent reading. By having these books,
she can continue to promote at least one of the key components of “balanced literacy,” independent reading, in her class. Her students are so very eager to read and learn but how do you promote reading without books? Although, ideally, a fondness for books starts at home, reading can become a habit through opportunities to read self-chosen books at school. I feel fairly comfortable to say that this school mirrors several others in the Broward School system. If I am wrong, please correct me. Here in Boca Raton and Delray Beach, we are fortunate that our schools have an adequate supply of books for the students’ use. Thanks largely to the Boca Raton-based Jarden Consumer Solutions and the Delray Beach Public Library several of our local schools and students receive an abundance of books each year. The Library has been offering books to any child in the city through its Summer Literacy program for several years. Library staff
promotes reading to children using games, crafts, storytelling and puppet shows. Since there is a shortage of appealing books in classrooms, especially in high poverty schools where most students do not have the luxury of bringing books from home or buying them, we need to step up and help them. I challenge you to help us get more books for our students: free ones, used ones, a library grant or you may want to have a used book drive in your community. Let us not be so consumed by the urgency to raise students’ reading scores that we forget that children learn to read by reading. Please help the students in my friend’s class. If you only have $1, they will take that because every little bit helps. You may read more about the class or support their effort at http://www.gofundme. com/bp2s7968. As someone once said, “Where there’s a will, there’s a way.” In advance, thank you for helping to educate our future.
POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.
You Can Make a Vital Difference! Several people fail to recognize the impact that little things can make, whether for good or for ill! In the remarks that follow, I am more interested in what positive little things can have in a variety of situations, and especially on other persons. Therefore, let us not fail to do something good just because it is a small or insignificant deed. Their effect can be much greater, and their impact is usually positive and lasting! What is fundamentally true is that, whether great or small, what we do for others never leaves us unaffected one way or another. A friend of mine, who greatly impacted my life while he lived, once affirmed that “blessings boomerang.” That means, the
things we send out come back to us with equal force and significance, whether they be great or small! Although this truth has been with me for many years, it was recently reaffirmed through the message I found wrapped inside a “fortune cookie” I received after a Chinese meal. The message of plain common-sense, eloquently recommended: “Give to the world the best you have and the best will come back to you.” The problem is that we live in an age where people are more desirous of doing the very least in varied situations, instead of attempting their best in whatever task demands their attention and effort. Too many people prefer cutting corners in every
action, and considering only the quick and easy way for the projects they must deliver! Furthermore, as many people nowadays tend to live just for the moment, few are those who care enough about the tangible good they can accomplish, the positive difference they can make through their actions. Positive or negative consequences no longer appear to affect the considerations of a large number of people. Yet, those prepared to abandon a self-centered outlook, can begin each new day with a simple question: What can I do today that will bring hope to some, joy to others, and encouragement to all I meet? With these, or similar reflections, one can easily find multiple opportunities and ways of answering
those inquiries with positive actions! The idea we often hear about, of people making this world a better place, is much easier to achieve if people just take some time to think and do what is within their reach and ability, no matter how small and insignificant it may at first appear to them. Great things, in their ultimate effect, are not dependent on cost, nor the magnitude of the efforts that make them possible. They simply require a heart attuned to the needs of society, a mind ready to think, and small amounts of time to fulfill little acts of kindness which can gradually impact an environment and, eventually, the entire world!

Property Owners Accuse City of Bullying, Intimidation By Jason Schwartz
A longtime feud between the City of Boynton Beach and the owners of a four-unit apartment complex has escalated into the property owners accusing the city of bullying and using “strong armed tactics” to take their property. Leon and Gail Jenkins said the City in January demolished their one-story building, at 132 Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd., so they could widen the street and expand the nearby Sara Sims Park. Now the Delray Beach couple says they were recently threatened with jail time after they launched a public campaign against the City. Frustrated by what they say is shady tactics from City officials, the Jenkins had two professionally-done signs placed on their property. “The City strong-armed me for my property and I want it back. Blood, sweat and tears,” read one of the signs. The second says, “They want this land but don’t want to pay for it. Why buy what you can steal?” On Friday, Aug. 28, city officials fired off a letter to the Jenkins saying that the two signs on their property in the historic Heart of Boynton neighborhood needed a permit and that the Jenkins illegally used the city’s logo on one of the signs. When Gail Jenkins had a worker to paint over the sign on Sunday, a Boynton Beach police officer threatened to arrest him, she said. “The assistant city attorney said we couldn’t use their official seal so he was painting over it when the officer said that he was going to arrest him for putting up a sign without a permit,” Gail Jenkins said. “This is nothing but the latest attempt on the city to intimidate us. They stole our property in January and now they are threatening to arrest us because we are exercising our First Amendment rights.” The issue dates back to 2010 when the City offered the Jenkins $110,000 for the property for a redevelopment project on Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard. However, the mortgage on the property is $160,000, which the Jenkins say would put them at a $50,000 deficit. The city then sent them a letter in April 2014 telling them the vacant apartment complex was unsafe, and needed to be rehabilitated or torn down. The Jenkins said they informed the City that it would take approximately two months to remodel the building. The City rejected their request and
granted them 14 days to secure a contractor, obtain the required permits and to complete the remodeling, records show. Several meetings took place including an appeals hearing in November where the City gave the Jenkins two months, (from Nov. 7 to Jan. 12) to complete the remodeling. A seasoned architect and contractor submitted plans, which were rejected three times before they were approved to begin work on Dec. 19, Gail Jenkins said. Even so, the city delayed inspections. The renovation was on track for a Jan. 12 completion, and an inspection was scheduled. However, the inspector did not show up or call, which put them past the deadline, she said. In their sign crusade, the Jenkins are asking the public to contact them if they too were victims of the City’s attempt to take their property. “Has something similar happened to you? The City does not care about you or me, so do not allow City Hall to bamboozle you with lies about properties not being livable,” says one of the signs. “This property was fit as long as tenants were living here. Ask city officials what they did to get my tenants out, and how that single act resulted in the destruction of my property. They won’t tell you but I will. Understand this...”If the city is not working with us, it is working against us.” Let your voices be heard! Call 561-536-3555 or email 134mlkdrive@gmail.com.” After learning of the signs, Assistant City Attorney Shana H. Bridgeman fired off a letter ordering them to cease and desist. “The City of Boynton Beach has become aware of the yard signs on your property (132 and 134 W. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd., aka 132 and 134 NW 10th Ave.) which contains the official City of Boynton Beach Seal. The City of Boynton Beach has not granted you, your agents or your associates permission to use the Official Seal of the City of Boynton Beach,” Bridgeman wrote. “This letter shall serve to put you on formal notice that the use of the City’s Seal without the City’s permission, except by municipal officials or employees in the performance of their official duties, is a violation of Section 165.043, Florida Statutes. The violation of this statute is a second degree misdemeanor punishable by up to sixty (60) days imprisonment,” she continued.
Multi-county Burglars Charged in Three Boca Cases
On August 23, 2014, Boca Raton Police officers and detectives began investigating two residential burglaries at 140 SE 5th Avenue, during which jewelry and a safe were taken from the units. Surveillance video from one apartment and the common area (https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljZHSD_ loBU) revealed two Hispanic male suspects inside the apartment and a third Hispanic male using a hand dolly to move a safe. All three suspects left in a green minivan. Detectives disseminated the information to surrounding agencies and two suspects, Alberto Colmenares Machado and Carlos Depablos Mazzilli, were identified and then linked to a group of individuals from Venezuela who were committing high-end residential burglaries, specifically targeting
condominiums in the tri-county area. These suspects were operating out of Venezuela and would fly into South Florida to commit these and similar crimes. On August 20, 2015 members of another Venezuelan burglary crew were arrested in Miami-Dade County as part of a multijurisdictional investigation. One of the suspects arrested, Andres Rojas Solano, told investigators that an individual named Colmenares Machado was part of his group, but left to start his own crew. Solano identified Colmenares Machadoas as a suspect in the August 23, 2014 burglary from the surveillance video. Carlos Depablos Mazzilli was also identified as participating in the burglary. Solano also told investigators two cohorts (Wilmer Rojas Gamoa and Eduardo Martinez) joined him to commit a burglary in Boca Raton on February 7, 2015 at 340 West Palmetto Park Road. Detectives charged the following five suspects with burglary, grand theft, and criminal mischief. Colmenares Machado and Depablos Mazzilli were arrested by detectives as they were about to board a plane bound for Venezuela from Miami International Airport on August 21, 2015. The investigation is on-going and further charges may be forthcoming.

Fifth-Annual White Coats-4-Care Reception Raises More Than $45,000 More than 230 civic, business, healthcare and community leaders along with several current and incoming students attended the recent fourth-annual White Coats-4-Care (WC4C) Reception that raised more than $45,000 to embrace and “dress and equip” FAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine’s newest class for healthcare career success. Founded, sponsored and presented by Kaye Communications, Inc., the event was co-hosted again by the Waterstone Resort & Marina that provided bountiful hors d’oeuvres and themed food stations, wine, and champagne in the resort’s penthouse level Atlantic Ballroom with sweeping views of Atlantic Ocean, the Intracoastal and Lake Boca. Admission to the reception was a donation for underwriting white coats, need-based scholarship funds, named seats in the medical education auditorium, and/or named medical school student scholarship funds to support the incoming class to the first and only medical school in Palm Beach County. With this year’s proceeds, the annual WC4C receptions have generated more than $255,000 in funds to benefit incoming classes. Guests were welcomed by Jon and Bonnie Kaye followed by a program including an update on the medical school achievements by its dean Dr. David Bjorkman, words of appreciation for community support from FAU President John W. Kelly, Ph.D., and personal stories shared by two new incoming medical students, who are FAU graduates and scholarship recipients, on what drew them to their career path as future physicians. Guests included a dedicated cross-section of the greater Boca Raton community, including donors; sponsors; physicians; FAU Foundation and medical school leadership including Dr. Michael Dennis, chairman of the Dean’s Advisory Board; representatives from partnering hospitals; Boca Raton Mayor Susan Haynie, Deputy Mayor Robert Weinroth, and Council Member Scott Singer; Greater Boca Raton Chamber Executive Vice President Sarah Pearson, former Boca Raton Mayor Susan Whelchel who served
during the development and launch of the medical school and former Deputy Mayor Constance Scott. For the fifth year, the WC4C “awareness and fund” raising reception was part of the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce’s month-long “2015 Greater Boca Raton Festival Days” that pairs nonprofit Boca Chamber members together with forprofit Chamber members to raise awareness and vital funds for the nonprofit member’s philanthropic efforts. For Chamber Trustee Member Kaye Communications, a South Florida-based strategic integrated marketing and public relations firm, pairing with FAU’s new medical school was a natural fit. Firm President and Chief Strategist Bonnie S. Kaye serves on the boards of directors of both the Chamber and the FAU Foundation, and firm Chief Operating Officer and Marketing Strategist Jon Kaye was a founding member of the Dean’s Advisory Board of the FAU medical school. Following the week, in annual tradition, the 64 young men and women of the incoming class received their white coats that represent integrity, compassion and trust and symbolizes their shared commitment to serve patients and their own oath (code of conduct) that they recited in unison and will follow throughout medical school and when they are physicians.

Boca Regional Introduces Ultra-Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedure Boca Raton Regional Hospital’s Richard G. Cartledge, MD, FACS, has begun performing ultra-minimally invasive left atrial appendage ligation for atrial fibrillation patients who are on anticoagulants such as Coumadin, Xarelto or Effient. Dr. Cartledge, who is Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery at the Hospital, is one of a select group of surgeons nationally using this method, which involves making two microscopic incisions in order to seal off the left atrial appendage (LAA) in patients where anticoagulants are contraindicated or who refuse to be on such medications. Patients with atrial fibrillation, or irregular heartbeat, have a five times greater risk of suffering a stroke than people who don’t have the condition, according to the Framingham Heart Study, which followed over 5,000 patients for more than 30 years. The risk is associated with the failure of the left atrium to fully evacuate blood from itself as a result of this type of arrhythmia. The blood then pools in the LAA, which is a small outpouching within the left atrium containing irregular interior surfaces called trabeculations. In patients with atrial fibrillation, clots can form in these areas and can “flick off,” resulting in stroke or other serious problems. “Your left atrial appendage is analogous to your appendix; it’s something you don’t need but it can kill you,” said Dr. Cartledge, who completed a fellowship in thoracic surgery at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and a cardiac surgery fellowship at The New York Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center. “Whoever is on anticoagulants because of atrial fibrillation is a potential candidate for this ultra-minimally invasive procedure, which, in essence, removes the LAA from the picture much the same way as your appendix is removed.” What separates Dr. Cartledge’s method
from other minimally invasive procedures is the size of the incisions he makes underneath the arm in the left side of the chest. Both incisions are less than 1/5 of an inch in diameter, compared to the standard minimally invasive method that involves an incision of about 2.5 inches. The procedure also eliminates the need for a post-operative chest tube. During the procedure, an ultra-thin, fiber optic, high-definition camera is inserted through one of the two incisions, while the other is used for an instrument port. This allows for a clear 360-degree view of inside the chest and the portion of the heart from where the LAA emanates. Dr. Cartledge then accesses the LAA and a device is inserted that seals off the LAA at its base. This totally excludes the appendage from circulation so clots can no longer be formed in that structure. The LAA is reabsorbed by the body over a short period of time and the potential for clots is eliminated. With anticoagulants no longer being required, the procedure also greatly reduces the chance for bleeds elsewhere in the body. “This ultra-minimally invasive procedure is efficient, safe, quick and is done with minimum discomfort,” Dr. Cartledge said. “The patients essentially need only Tylenol postoperatively for pain and they can go home the next day. It really changes the paradigm of how to deal with afib in a patient that should not be on anticoagulants or doesn’t want to be on anticoagulants.” In addition to his accomplishments as a heart surgeon, Dr. Cartledge has been awarded more than 100 domestic and international patents for medical devices he developed that are being used in hospitals throughout the United States, the Middle East and Europe.

Lunch at Boca West C.C.
I was invited to join Sharon DiPietro, whose husband Jay is the Manager of the Boca West C.C. for lunch this week at the club. Sharon introduced me to Thomas Kassner the Food and Beverage Manager at the club. I am considering a Black Hat luncheon there in October. I feasted on a delicious chicken lentil soup and delicious lobster roll and curly fries. Sharon is such a great gal, she hosts the Tri County Doggie Ball fundraiser at the club each year along with several other charities.

“American Ultra” is a wild and wacky comic book take on a deadly CIA special ops killer with amnesia. Eisenberg is Mike Howell, a seemingly harmless stoner who is looked after by a devoted girlfriend, Phoebe Larson, played by Kristin Stewart. Neither Mike Howell nor Phoebe Larson are what they appear to be in Max Landis’ fanciful cartoonishly-violent script, directed by London-born Iranian Nima Nourizadeh. No, Mike Howell is a deadly killer who springs into action whenever he and or Phoebe are threatened by anyone out to do them harm, and it seems just about everyone is. Playing against type, Eisenberg
is a highly-trained master of mayhem and martial arts, using any handy available object as a deadly weapon. By the same token Phoebe is not the innocent girl she purports to be. Also playing again type is “That 70s Show” good guy Topher Grace playing a rogue CIA agent, Adrian Yates, out to eradicate Mike Howell by any means necessary. Topher seems to relish playing a heartless, deceitful scumbag. Connie Britton wears the white hat in this romp, playing a “good” CIA agent, Victoria Lasseter. Walter Goggins goes completely overboard as a toothless madman thug, Laugher. John Leguizamo is a “good thug,” Rose, while Bill Pullman and Tony Hale are “good” CIA guys. For all its violence and fake gore, “American Ultra” is a very funny movie. The director lets up in on the joke with actual cartoon comic book sequence in the final credits. It’s good summer fun.

DIVORCE FLORIDA STYLE
By Rick Warren
By Mike Gora
Walking The Wire In The Workplace
Home School Q:
We have twin girls. We lived in another state until the girls were in second grade. We then moved to Boca Raton, so that I could take a job offer, a significant advancement in my career. My, wife, who had been teaching elementary school in our old home state, looked into public elementary school education in our neighborhood. She was not happy about what she found. We cannot afford a private school. She suggested home schooling the children. I am against it, and told her so. I didn’t want the girls to grow up and be educated without having the benefit of having to deal with other children of the same age, and teachers who were not their parents. We compromised. We agreed that the girls could be home schooled, through fifth grade, but would go to a public middle school, and high school when the time came. Our agreement was not written. Our daughters have completed fifth grade for the 2012-2013 school year. My wife and I are going through a divorce, in which I filed the petition. She has, conveniently forgotten our verbal agreement, and insists that she be allowed to continue home schooling, at least through middle school, and, perhaps, high school, which I do not want her to do. Can the judge in our divorce case address this issue?
A:
Your children’s best interests must be taken into consideration by the judge. That consideration will, if properly raised by the pleadings, include the school issues. If your petition for dissolution of your marriage does not specifically raise this issue, your lawyer should file an amended petition. If your petition did not raise the issue but your wife’s counter-petition did, that would be sufficient once you denied her request in your answer to her counter-petition.
Since your daughters are half way through fifth grade, the judge will have time to decide what happens next, before your girls are ready to enter middle school, next fall. Your attorney and your wife’s counsel will have to be prepared to put on a case that addresses either of the judge’s choices. The judge can either make a choice between the public middle school and home schooling based upon an evaluation of the success of the home schooling verses the quality of the middle school available in your neighborhood. The State of Florida grades the schools through the FCAT process. Testing is available for children being home schooled. If the judge goes in that direction he, or she, may want the decision to cover high school as well, unless you and your wife can agree on that issue in advance. The judge is going to look for a way to end the case that will not bring it back into court after three years, for a high school determination. The second alternative available to the judge would be to delegate to one of you, total control over all educational matters, even though you will have shared parental responsibility on other matters. You or your wife would, under such a final judgment, not be required to consult or agree with the other on any further school decisions. There is no way to accurately predict which method the judge will use. Your wife may have an edge, as a schoolteacher. However, if progress tests show that your children under perform public school children in progress tests, you may be the parent selected to make the decisions. It would be wise to have private and/or public testing, or both given to you daughters, as soon as possible, so that this issue can be intelligently litigated and discussed when you sit down with your attorneys and a mediator.
Have you ever heard of Jean-Francois Gravelet? He lived from 1824 to 1897, and used the professional pseudonym, Blondin, gaining world acclaim as a tightrope walker and acrobat from London, England. Blondin crossed Niagara Falls in upstate New York, U.S.A. a number of times on a wire 1,100 feet long, suspended 160 feet above the raging waters. He performed his death-defying tightrope feats with different theatrical variations: Blindfolded; in a sack; pushing a wheelbarrow; on stilts; even while carrying a man on his back. We might not be walking a high wire across a raging waterfall, but in the 21st century workplace, it seems like that at times. There is the balance between ethics and profit; embarking into the unknown with an unproven product or service; juggling work and family priorities; economic uncertainties. When I read about Blondin, I think of a man who also attempted a death-defying feat. His name was Peter. You might recall the biblical account where Peter and the other disciples of Jesus were in a small boat in the midst of a raging storm. Suddenly they saw Jesus walking across the water. Impulsively, Peter asked, “Lord, if it is you… tell me to come to you on the water” (Matthew 14:28). Jesus’ response was simple: “Come.” “… when Peter saw the high waves he was terrified and began to sink. ‘Save me, Lord!’ he shouted” (Matthew 14:30). I suspect we all would have done the same. Have you ever embarked on a project or made a decision, thinking at the time it was the right thing to do, only to have circumstances immediately bring your judgment into question? I want to remind you Simon Peter did many

notable things during the course of his lifetime, but this episode of walking upon the water ranked as one of his greatest: no high wire, no rocks hidden underneath. Surrounded by obvious dangers, faced with utter impossibility, Peter found inner strength in his Lord’s command: “‘Come.’” For a few moments, Peter shared with his Master in the suspension of natural laws. Then the whole project blew up at four in the morning. One moment, his eyes fixed on Jesus, Peter was walking above the storm; the next he was “in over his head.” Soaked to the skin, Peter was rescued by Jesus. He learned an important truth: A saint is not someone that never fails; a saint is someone that is trusting in God and gets up and goes on again every time he or she falls. “Lord, save me!” Peter’s words were simple, without time to elaborate on details, without time to observe ceremonial laws. But in reality, this is the quickest, easiest, and most desperate way to reach the heart of God. What did Peter do wrong? He was blamed: Not for daring, but for doubting. Not for failure, but faltering. Not for lack of courage, but lack of confidence. You may not be a Blondin or Peter, but you probably find yourself in today’s fearsome workplace, in the midst of the night, and the storm is “contrary.” Do not measure the waves, do not gauge the wind; do not give in to the danger, and most of all…do not throw in the towel and sink under the circumstances. The Bible offers this advice: “Keep your eyes on Jesus, our Leader and Instructor… if you want to keep from becoming fainthearted and weary…” (Hebrews 12:1-3).

Juvenile Accidently Shot in Leg at Boomer’s On Saturday, August 8 at about 10:40 p.m., Boca Raton Police officers responded to reports that a male had been shot at Boomer’s, 3100 Airport Road. As officers arrived, witnesses pointed out a male running through the parking lot as the possible suspect. Officers apprehended the 16 year old, male juvenile without incident. The juvenile told officers he and a group of friends were near the go-cart’s when he took a .25 caliber pistol from his front pants pocket intending to put it in his rear pocket when he inadvertently pulled the trigger, thereby shooting his friend in the leg. The juvenile told officers he then discarded the pistol in a trash can. Officers located the 15 year old male victim, who had a gunshot wound in his calf. The victim was taken to Delray Medical Center

for treatment. Witnesses confirmed there was no altercation leading up to the shooting and the friends involved confirmed it. Two witnesses who saw the incident attempted to detain the subjects immediately after the shooting and were subsequently battered by a friend of the shooter and victim. The .25 caliber pistol was recovered and officers learned the gun had been reported stolen in Delray Beach. Evidence recovered later indicated the gun was in the victim’s pocket when the shooting occurred. The juvenile originally believed to be the shooter was charged with resisting arrest without violence and possession of a stolen firearm. Another male juvenile was charged with simple battery for hitting the witness.

The Boca Raton Airport Authority Debuts New Branding With an eye towards the future, the Boca Raton Airport Authority introduces new branding; including a logo, stationery, and color palette. The branding is designed to complement the Airport’s role as an innovative community partner, without neglecting its storied past. The Boca Raton Airport started in 1936 as a small city airport. Today, the Airport continues to evolve with an inventive, forwardthinking approach to air travel, which has made it home to nearly 300 based aircraft and an average of 50,000 annual operations. As the Airport expands its services — including a Customs and Border Protection Facility — the new branding offers a strong identity that will evolve with the Airport as its offerings grow in the near future. Re-envisioned branding completes the airport’s mission, to be a world class general aviation airport that is a vital element in the
area’s economic development initiatives. The airport fulfills that role by providing superior infrastructure and service to its tenants and users and by creating thousands of jobs throughout Boca Raton and surrounding areas. The elements of the new logo capture the elegance of flight, as the airplane elevates and proceeds forward, signifying not just air travel but the direction the Airport is taking. Vibrant green and blue hues complement the tropical atmosphere of the Airport’s east Boca Raton location, which is less than three miles from the Atlantic Ocean and its white sand beaches. Signifying the Airport’s bright future, rich history, and community partnership, the branding will serve the Boca Raton Airport as it grows into one of the country’s premier Public Use General Aviation facilities.

Boca Raton Bowl Taps Kaye Communications PR & Marketing For The 2015 Postseason College Football Game And Lead-In Events
The Boca Raton Bowl has retained Kaye Communications PR & Marketing (KCOMPR) as its strategic communications and community engagement agency for its 2015 postseason college football game scheduled for Tuesday, December 22, 2015 at 7 p.m. at FAU Stadium in Boca Raton. The announcement was made by Boca Raton Bowl Executive Director Doug Mosley who reported that KCOM-PR will focus on
providing ‘think tank’ communications strategy; increasing consumer, tourism, business-to-business awareness and collaborations through its established relationships and BizGen tools; expanding ‘crowd and fan’ raising grassroots outreach; increasing news-generating brand storytelling and enhancing Boca Raton Bowl-generated digital, online, social media and e-communications initiatives for all bowl-related events. Contributing multi-tiered communications leadership for lead-in events and game day, Mosley reported that KCOM-PR President and Chief Strategist Bonnie S. Kaye will serve as a member of the Boca Raton Bowl’s Executive Committee as it readies for this year’s game match-up between the American Athletic Conference (AAC) and Mid-American Conference (MAC). In its collaborative role, KCOM-PR will work closely with Boca Raton Bowl leadership to support ESPN Events that owns and operates the bowl game and its various partners and stakeholders. These include ESPN West Palm that is spearheading corporate sponsorship and hospitality; Orange Bowl operations that is driving sports media relations, ticket sales and event operations as well as destination stakeholders including City of Boca Raton, Palm Beach County, Discover The Palm Beaches, Florida Atlantic University and beneficiary
Spirit of Giving Network’s to build ‘fan’ and ‘community’ momentum. “We are pleased to have successfully recruited Kaye Communications to be part of our Boca Raton Bowl strategic communications planning and community activation team,” noted Mosley. “The firm’s long-standing track record, its own leadership investment and role in Boca Raton’s community advancement, ‘marketing PR’ expertise, established public-private partnership relationships, grassroots initiatives and news media brand-telling success make it a perfect fit.” Through its 19th years in business, KCOMPR has delivered strategic brand communications for similar broad-based launch and reinvention positioning initiatives for several of Boca’s iconic destination brands. Among these are the City of Boca Raton for the re-branding and revitalization of its CRA Downtown Boca, Allianz Championship since its move to Boca 10 years ago, Boca Raton Police Services Department’s business and grassroots VIPER crime prevention program, Boca Raton Resort & Club and its Premier Club, Town Center at Boca Raton upon annexation to the City, and Royal Palm Place (for its total brand and mixed-use transformation from Royal Palm Plaza). Most recently KCOM-PR is leading the re-branding communications and business-to-business education for the
repositioning of the Arvida Park of Commerce (APOC) that has been designated as a planned mobility hub and renamed The Park at Broken Sound. This follows the firm’s community engagement and media relations initiatives to support new ownership acquisition of The Boca Raton Bridge Hotel to its total reinvention as the Waterstone Resort & Marina featuring the only public on-thewater ‘dock to dine’ restaurants in Boca Raton. Other diverse public-private initiative efforts by KCOM-PR have supported the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton’s Promise (with firm’s creation and activation of BOCA BRAVE grassroots initiative for ‘breaking the silence’ on mental health), Nat King Cole Generation Hope and the upcoming inaugural Boca Raton Mayor’s Ball presented by Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton. KCOM Founder & Chief Strategist Bonnie S. Kaye who also serves on the board of directors of the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce and the FAU Foundation added, “All of us at Kaye Communications are pleased to join ‘the Boca Raton Bowl game leadership roster’ to once again rally South Florida to propel yet another Boca asset to shine bright in the national spotlight.”

Strikers Remain Hot, Defeat Indy Eleven 7-1 Behind Stefano’s Hat-Trick Photo by Rosa Cavalcanti The Fort Lauderdale Strikers routed the Indy Eleven 7-1 in a record-scoring game for the club Saturday night at Lockhart Stadium. The game began with a sideways rain shower, with the rain holding off until minutes after the final whistle. In between, a crowd of 3,819 that included Brazilian soccer icon and team owner Ronaldo, saw a shower of goals that resulted in the most prolific scoring output for the Strikers in the NASL Modern Era. Ronaldo’s compatriot Stefano Pinho scored three goals, while fellow countrymen Marlon Freitas and PC tallied two apiece to give the Strikers their third win in a row. The Red & Gold victory extended the team’s streak to four unbeaten. “When you have Brazilian players, you have to let them play freely,” said Head Coach Günter Krontsteiner. “I told them, play freely up front.

The goal festival started almost right away as Stefano, the reigning NASL Player of the Week, scored a beauty of a goal 68 seconds into the game. The Brazilian striker beat Indy goalkeeper Kristian Nicht with an acrobatic scissor kick after an initial shot by Freitas was stopped. It only took five more minutes for the Strikers’ second goal as PC converted a penalty kick that he earned after he was pulled down in the box by Indy captain Brad Ring. The Indy Eleven pulled one back thanks to their in-form goalscorer Dane Richards, who notched his third goal since joining the squad in July. The strike came in the 16th minute following a Fort Lauderdale defensive turnover. Indy’s momentum was quelled when Freitas

Down 3-1 at the break, things got worse for Indy Eleven when defender Marco Franco was ejected from the match in the 50th minute. The Strikers did not let up. Freitas picked up his second of the night in the 67th minute, again with a shot from distance after receiving a spot-on pass from Hendry Thomas. Stefano put his name on the scoring sheet again while etching his name in the Strikers’ record book with his second tally in the 77th minute. He drilled a left-footed shot to the far post giving Nicht no chance to make a save. The goal was the club’s 200th since the team resumed play in 2011. Just four minutes later, Stefano notched his hat trick with his league-leading 12th goal of the season. Freitas showed he is a team player when he elected to pass to Stefano for an empty netter rather than attempt to score his third goal of the game after being one-on-one with the keeper. PC capped the scoring with a header in the 85th minute on a cross from Stefano. In a dominant performance, Fort Lauderdale maintained 65% possession of the ball and tallied 16 shots, nine on goal, while limiting Indy Eleven to just one. The Strikers will enjoy a bye week before traveling to the Canadian capital to take on NASL Fall Season leader, the Ottawa Fury on Saturday, September 12. Following that match, the Strikers return home for three-straight games against the Jacksonville Armada, Ottawa and Minnesota United FC. Tickets are available for those three matches and all remaining Fort Lauderdale home games at Strikers.com.

Boca Raton FC Earns U.S. Open Cup Berth
DO YOU KNOW THE #1 RISK OF SENIORS TODAY?
The 2015 American Premier Soccer League champions, Boca Raton Football Club has been selected to play in the most prestigious tournament in the United States, the U.S. Open Cup. The tournament will begin for Boca Raton FC in October as they battle fellow fourth division clubs in the hopes of advancing far in the tournament. As a fourth division club, Boca Raton FC begins their journey through the U.S. Open Cup much earlier than other teams like the L.A. Galaxy, Seattle Sounders, or Orlando City. The first two qualifying rounds of the U.S. Open Cup take play in October and November of this year, and if Boca Raton FC advances past these two rounds, they will await the draw of the MLS, NASL, and USL teams that will take place in January of 2016 to determine their next opponent. “To play in the U.S. Open Cup is tremendous for our club,” says head coach Marcelo Castillo. “This is an important tournament for us as it gives us exposure on a national level.” “Our goal from the start of the season was to win it and make the U.S. Open Cup,” says majority owner, Douglas Heizer. “Not everyone who wants to play in the U.S. Open Cup gets to play.” Over 400 clubs attempt a berth in the U.S. Open Cup, but not all are awarded a spot. Many criteria’s must be met for a club to be awarded a spot in the third-longest running national tournament in the world. Although soccer in the United States doesn’t have the same history as other countries around the world, the U.S. can still
claim the third-oldest continuously running national tournament. The first U.S. Open Cup, then called the National Challenge Cup, was played in 1914 and has continued every year since. England’s FA Cup is the oldest association tournament in the world, beginning play in 1871. It’s not often that lower division teams get a chance to knock off one of the big dogs of American soccer. MLS teams enter in the fourth round of the tournament and every year the 16 remaining NASL, USL, and amateur clubs get a shot. In 2014, four MLS clubs were knocked out in the fourth round, and two NASL clubs made it all the way to the quarterfinals. The only non-MLS club to win the tournament since MLS teams began competing in 1996 was the 1999 Rochester Rhinos of the A-League (2nd division). However, despite the lack success of lower division clubs, the national media exposure that a club receives in playing in the U.S. Open Cup is enough to launch the career of some players that otherwise would have gone unnoticed in the lower divisions. “Many of our players have a hunger to make it to the second, and even the first division,” says Castillo. “This tournament is their window into the soccer world and will also help put the Boca Raton FC name in places that otherwise would not have heard of our club.” On September 12, Castillo and his coaching staff will look to identify male soccer talent in the area as he builds to his team as they prepare for the 2016 U.S. Open, interested players must sign up early online.
