Local Residents to Share Ideas on Redesigning High Schools of Tomorrow

By Kevin Harris

see page 8

A group of local residents vying to reform high schools will be in Miami on June 24 to meet on a school bus that is on a multi-city national tour.

The XQ Super School Bus is enroute from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., and is stopping in communities as part of the XQ Super School Challenge, a contest backed by Laurene Powell Jobs, the widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs.

The bus will be at Bayfront Park, one of 14 scheduled stops, where they are engaging with community members about how they think high schools could better prepare students for college, workplace and life, said Keisha Harrington,

The Boca Raton Tribune

Community Second Annual Boca Raton Mayors Ball Set For October 8th Following a sold-out, award-winning inaugural debut last year, The Rotary Club of Downtown Boca Raton announces its second annual Boca Raton Mayors Ball will be held Saturday, October 8, 2016 at Broken Sound Club. The black-tie red carpet gala will once again honor the elected officials who exemplify Rotary International’s motto, “Service Above Self ” and the City’s visionaries past and present who have elevated the community on a global spotlight.

The event is co-chaired by Rotary Club of Downtown Boca Raton members Jon A. Kaye, immediate Club past president who served as the founding chair of the inaugural 2015 Mayors Ball and Club member Constance J. Scott.

According to Kaye and Scott, this year the “George Long Awards” -- named for the City’s first appointed mayor in 1924 whose untiring devotion to the Boca Raton was renowned -- will be presented to Christine E. Lynn, Boca Raton Resort & Club (currently celebrating it’s 90th Anniversary) and Boca Helping Hands. Each year the coveted awards are presented to an individual, forprofit organization and nonprofit organization that have each championed the tradition of bringing indelible visionary ideas and transformation to Boca Raton.

The evening includes an Oscar-style and champagne arrival, a festive reception, dinner dance set amidst City-themed décor, awards presentation and plenty of dancing to live music by the Steve Chase Band, which co-chairs say are returning “by popular demand”. Funds raised support the health and wellness needs of nonprofit organizations in the City of Boca Raton through the Rotary Club of Downtown Boca Raton’s ‘Service Above Self ’ grant application program distributed $56,000 in Ball proceeds to 25 nonprofits that serve those in Boca Raton. In addition to grant funds, the Club donated $8,300 to the Rotary International Polio Plus Program and $5,000 to the Boca Raton Historical Society for community partner support for the Mayors Ball.

“Since our Club’s primary goal is to keep our outstanding community growing strong,our membershipcreated, established and presented the Boca Raton Mayors Ball as a coveted celebratory and ‘must go’ annual season opener to spotlight our City, its visionaries, stakeholders, achievements and contributions,” noted Ball Co-Chair Kaye.

“Now Boca Raton has its rightful place in time-honored Mayors Ball traditions enjoyed by other iconic South Florida cities as Palm Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Miami.”

As prelude to the 2016 Mayors Ball, Kaye reported that an invitation-only pre-reception for dignitaries, Club members, host committee and committed sponsors and

partners will be held at the Boca Raton Resort & Club on Tuesday, August 16, 2016.

The 2016 Mayors Ball Honorary Chair is Former Mayor Bill T. Smith. Honorary Advisors include Mayor Susan Haynie, Former Mayors Susan Whelchel and Steven Abrams who currently serves as a Palm Beach County Commissioner; Boca Raton Deputy Mayor Michael Mullaugh and Council Members Robert Weinroth, Jeremy Rodgers and Scott Singer.

“We have again collaborated with the Boca Raton Historical Society to assist with our décor theme that features the celebrated history of Boca Raton,” added Ball CoChair Scott. “Just as done last year, we know the dance floor will be filled, longtime reconnections made and relationships renewed and strengthened as together we celebrate ‘all that is Boca’.”

Boca Raton Mayors Ball committee members include: Club President Lewis Fogel, Inaugural Mayors Ball Co-Chair Kari Oeltjen, Michele Bellisari, Carole Boucard, Dr. Allen Konis, Dyana Kenney, David Eltringham, Frank Feiler, Gary Flaks, Marleen Forkas, Deborah Freudenberg, Ingrid Fulmer, Bonnie Halperin, Arlene Herson, Shaheer Hosh, Rick Howard, Rosie Inguanzo-Martin, Alan Kaye, Adi Kol, Dr. Allen Konis, Penny Morey, Linda Petrakis, Howard Tai, Robin Trompeter, Michael Walstrom and Jonathan Whitney. A host committee representing a diverse crosssection of city and community advocates and stakeholders is in formation.

Founded in July 2011, The Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton is dedicated to impacting the Boca Raton community through Rotary International’s mission of “Service Above Self ”. The award-winning 501(c) 3 nonprofit’s purpose is to make a difference in its community by enhancing the lives of many in an environment embraces and promotes integrity, friendship, camaraderie and trust. While the Mayors Ball will fund the Club’s grant program, the Club also presents the “Annual Honor Your Doctor Luncheon” founded by Helen M. Babione that for 19 years has recognized physician leadership and excellence in healthcare while raising scholarship monies for nursing students at Florida Atlantic University, Lynn University and Palm Beach State College and medical students at Florida Atlantic University.

The Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton is one of Rotary International’s 34,000 clubs in more than 200 countries that connect 1.2 million Rotarians with diverse crosssections of thought and action leaders and stakeholders, link diverse perspectives and build lasting relationships to take action in communities at home and around the globe.

Local Residents to Share Ideas on Redesigning High Schools of Tomorrow

a Boynton Beach educator who is part of a local team that submitted an application.

“The bus tour is designed to encourage students, parents, teachers and community members to explore innovative ways to improve high schools in an age of innovation,” said Harrington, whose application is a finalist in the largest open call for public high school redesign in American history.

“It also will be an opportunity for the community to connect with us, and hear directly from us why we engaged in the challenge as well as some of the innovative ideas that we have for rethinking high school in South Florida,” she added.

The bus is customized with touchable iPads, a video booth and an interactive wall displaying testimonials from educators and students along the way.

In September 2015, the Emerson Collective, an organization run by Powell Jobs,

www.bocaratontribune.com

launched the competition to ask communities and people everywhere to rethink and redesign what high school could and should look like.

More than 1,000 ideas, including the one from the Delray Beachbased Visioneering Centre for Global Innovation and Communication, flowed in. So far, the proposals have been whittled down to 385, and at least five of those will receive $10 million grants. Winners will be announced in early August.

The vCentre plans to use the grant, which would be awarded over five years, to build a state of the art campus that will focus on project-based learning in science, technology, engineering, arts and math as well as cutting edge technology.

Students, educators and the community came up with the idea over several months of meeting, said C. Ron Allen, editor of the Boca Raton Tribune and operator of a local mentoring program.

“As soon as we learned of this opportunity to create a revolutionary school for our local students, we jumped on it full force,” said Allen, who spearheaded the project.

“We gave it our all. And just the thought of knowing that we are finalists in a national competition that attracted more than 1,000 applicants is worth celebrating.”

EDITORIAL

By C. Ron Allen

News that a woman and four children were living in their jalopy in a parking lot downtown for three months struck me with the same urgency as when I learned that I had a hole in my roof or my car needed a new fan belt. My immediate thought: Fix it now.

I did not ask a litany of questions as many would and did upon hearing her story. Instead, I instructed her to follow me.

Now, we are often critical of governmental agencies - and sometimes rightfully so - for their lack of empathy, laziness and unprofessionalism.

But there are instances, as in this case, where kudos is warranted to the many public servants who are ethical and even go above and beyond their job descriptions.

Such is the case of the Delray Beach Housing Authority.

After learning of the family’s dilemma, the president/CEO, Dorothy Ellington, and her staff went into overdrive mode. Within minutes, Shirley Erazo, the chief operating officer, found a three-bedroom apartment in a very nice community. Then there came some bureaucratic hurdles.

Not having a fixed address, the woman wrote “homeless” on the application, which delayed the process. Erazo also found out

A Classic Case of Effective Community, Government Partnership

there were some restrictions on the use of a pool of money. However, she did not give up and pleaded with HUD officials in Tallahassee, who after three weeks, gave the nod to subsidize the woman’s rent for one year.

“Praise God,” Erazo said. “I am so happy for her. We pushed to make this happen because this is a woman we think is deserving.”

Meanwhile, I reached out to my friends who pitched in: one gave up her living room set, a furniture store donated a bed, my friends in the police department offered to make sure she had enough clothing for her four children, ages 7, 6, 2 and four months old, another offered to provide her with linen and household goods. It was so gratifying to see the spirit of community, people pitching in to help someone who they never met. All they knew - help was needed to improve someone’s life.

I learned that the breadwinner, the father of one of the woman’s children, was murdered in August sending her spiraling. Her car became their home after she was evicted and her belongings were cast out on the sidewalk. (Her car sounds like a crop duster before takeoff and fumes like a pest control machine). She would spend the evenings at

a local park until closing then park in front of the police station at night. Each morning, they would shower at the beach before daybreak.

I also spoke with the woman’s bosses, who agreed to work with her schedule so she would have time to pick up her children from childcare. A friend even volunteered his children to babysit until she got home.

This was a classic case of the community addressing a need. It often does not require government to solve the neighborhoods’ issues, just each of us doing our part.

I recall how the kids’ eyes lit up as the movers brought the bed and sofa inside the apartment. The 2-year-old bounced off the sofa as if it was a trampoline.

I am still perplexed. I often hear elected officials and some homeless advocates say that there is help for the homeless in Palm Beach County 24 x 7. Still, I keep hearing horror stories of families living in cars or people, like Cedric Barr, who cannot get into some of the shelters because they do not meet one of the three criteria: being on drugs, declared mentally insane or have an arrest record.

From my 10,000-feet view, it appears there are so many definition of homelessness – at

least in this county - and because there is no expressed clear meaning, people are left confused and disheartened.

Homelessness is a situation; it does not define a person. Barr has the same needs as the woman in her 20s who is living in her car. They all need love, care, nurturing and a safe place to call home.

That family of five now has a home. But what about Barr and the roughly 1,421 others in Palm Beach County who are considered homeless? It will take a meeting of the minds to build partnerships between faith, business, community and business leaders to achieve that level of success.

While I hope I am wrong, I have a gut feeling that most of our elected officials do not genuinely care about the homeless. They care about homelessness only because of the negative impact it has on their community but as far as the victims, that is not at the top of their list. After all, the homeless and children do not vote.

I think however, it is going to take some old-fashioned shaming to inspire city and county leaders as well as lawmakers in Tallahassee to incentivize or mandate affordable housing for working families brutalized by the Great Recession.

POSITIVE LIVING

By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

You Can Communicate Better!

Every human being comes into the world with communication mechanisms. Even newborn babies know how to share pressing needs to a parent or guardian, capable of supplying their request.

What many adults fail to understand, even after several years on planet earth, is that communication among fellow humans is a task that demands continued improvement. The mere utterance of words, or an expression of feelings, does not necessarily indicate that a message has been sufficiently grasped!

Those who are eager to be understood by others, so as to anticipate a response from them, are responsible to convey their message with clarity, free from interfering

noises, and at a moment which offers the best chances of comprehension, and the provision of an adequate response.

Not only serious issues, but also less significant matters, have the greatest probability of being heard, understood, and acted upon when timing, surroundings, and emotional wellbeing of those engaged in the conversation are key factors taken into consideration. A dialogue does it best!

It is the one communicating to another who has the primary responsibility of ascertaining that the message has been heard and understood. While using the vacuum cleaner, when the television or radio are blasting, or when children are fighting or crying nearby, is not the right time to con-

vey messages to another person, with the expectation of being clearly heard!

The moment a spouse enters the house after a long day at work is never the best time to address any issue of importance to be received by the hearer, especially when that issue entails potentially bad news.

I once heard of a wise wife who studiously avoided greeting her husband after his long day at work with any bad news, regardless of the seriousness of the issue. So, one day, as soon as her husband entered the house, with a welcoming smile she went to kiss him, and proclaimed: “Hi, honey; you should be happy to know that three of our four children are not in the hospital at the moment!” With that creative approach, and

the blow softened, she was able gradually to explain that one of the kids had broken a leg during a ball game, but all else was okay!

You can avoid being misunderstood, not being heard, or sharing your thoughts at an inappropriate moment by seeking the right time, the best setting, and the most clear and adequate words which effectively and exhaustively express what you desire to convey.

It is not late at night, much less when you are tired in bed ready to sleep, or at moments when other pressing sirens beckon another’s attention that you should spill your concerns, or seek an answer to significant matters. Communication is not hard, but it needs to be done effectively!

Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr. is a Florida resident who, for many years, was a professor at the post-graduate level. He is a writer, a sought-after conference speaker, a man who lived in five continents of the world, having received his education in four of them. When he resided in southern California, he wrote a weekly column for the daily “Anaheim Bulletin,” which was carried for about six years, until he moved to south Florida.

Meet the New, HighlySculpted Tarzan

Charlotte’s Travels Photos by Charlotte Beasley

I attnded the Luxury Chamber or Commerce networking party at the New York Prime restaurant last nite. A very large group was present at this event to hear speakers, Khalilah Ali, former wife of Muhammed Ali and Scott Singer of the Boca Raton City Council speak.

The black hat diva’s enjoyed a wonderful German lunch at Gretl’s Bistro of Potato Pancakes, jaeger scnitzel, spaetzle and red cabbage and apple strudel. The group was filmed for a t.v. show in August by BYL network.

The Diva’s welcomed several new members.

Meet the new, improved Tarzan, Alexander Skarsgard in “The Legend of Tarzan.”

Skarsgard, a Swedish actor who is a towering 6-foot-4, underwent intensive training and dieting to become the most finelychiseled Tarzan ever. He is teamed with the delicately beautiful Australian actress Margot Robbie as Jane.

Director David Yates is responsible for the last four of the Harry Potter movies, all of which had eye-popping visual style. For exteriors, Yates flew his crew to the magnificent Gabon National Parks in Africa, lending the movie a wild visual beauty.

Only vaguely inspired by the original Edgar Rice Burroughs yarns, “Tarzan” is set in 1884, after the origin story of an orphaned boy raised by a family of apes in Africa.

Tarzan has left Africa and returned to England to claim his title as the 5th Earl of Greystoke, John Clayton III. Clayton has married his American girlfriend Jane, and they have settled into the life of the landed gentry, with Clayton a member of the House of Lords.

Meanwhile back in the Congo, claimed by King Leopold of Belgium, diamonds have been discovered. Something even more valuable than diamonds has evolved; the enslavement of natives under the greedy power of King Leopold’s emissary, Capt.

Leon Rom (Christoph Waltz). Rom has

a r eima g ine d

Mus ic an

July 8 - July 14 , 2016

Skip Sheffield

www.bocaratontribune.com

entered in an agreement with tribal Chief Mbonga (Djimon Hounsou) to deliver Tarzan in exchange for diamonds. Rom concocts an excuse to lure Clayton back to Africa, where he can be captured.

In the revisionist script by Adam Cozad, Craig Brewer and a committee of others, Jane has become a feisty feminist, insisting she come along for the trip. Also muscling in on the mission is Civil War veteran George Washington Williams (Samuel L. Jackson), who knows about the slave trade and wants to expose it to the world.

It doesn’t take Clayton long to doff his shirt and prepare for battle. Jane predictably is captured and Tarzan revives his gift of communication with animals, most of whom are computer-generated, to defeat the bad guys. Jackson serves as comic relief in an otherwise sober story of exploitation.

Belgium was not the only European country with a shameful history of colonialism and exploitation in Africa. This is the first Tarzan movie of my recollection that has worked in modern social commentary.

Olympic swimmer Johnny Weissmuller remains the gold standard of Tarzans, but for sheer physical perfection, Skarsgard set the bar the highest yet.

Excited About Excellence One of the enjoyable things in life is being the beneficiary of work well done. Recently we have had several craftsmen engaged in improvement projects at our home. These included a bathroom tile specialist, a carpenter, painters, a tree cutting service, and a tree stump grinder. In nearly every case their work was excellent, and I would not hesitate to hire them again if needed.

These workers shared several common characteristics: They took pride in their work, doing it at a very high-quality level.

They were meticulous, attending to important details. They were prompt in arriving for the job. They were friendly. And they made a point to clean up after performing their work, even if the project extended into the next day. They left the scene as clean and orderly as when they arrived.

I think we all appreciate and admire such diligence. However, too many people, it would appear, are content with “good enough,” doing the bare minimum to technically fulfill their assignments or commitments. Pride in workmanship has become increasingly rare. Which is probably why it seems noteworthy when it is displayed in the workplace.

From the beginning of creation, excellence has been a hallmark, an attribute of God that has been passed on to all who have been made “in His image.” After each day of creation, recounted in Genesis 1, we are told, “God saw that it was good.” In a similar way, despite our human imperfections, we should be able to look back at our own work and “see that it was good.” Here are some practical observations from the Bible about the quality of our work:

We are equipped for good work. When confronted with a challenging job, we face the temptation to offer the excuse, “I can’t” or “I am not up to that task.” However, the Scriptures teach God will not ask us to do something He has not made us capable of performing – with His strength. “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do”(Ephesians 2:10).

Good work will be recognized. The satisfaction of doing work with excellence should be a reward in itself, but we can also have confidence that our diligence and quality work will not go unnoticed. “Do you see a man skilled in his work? He will serve before kings; he will not serve before obscure men” (Proverbs 22:29).

Good work increases our value. As a friend of mine often says, “To earn more, you have to be worth more.” Excellence and devotion to performing good work makes us more valuable to our companies, current and future employers, and our customers.

While unmotivated, uncaring workers complain about not getting pay increases and promotions, excellent work will usually propel us to positions of greater responsibility, more authority, and greater compensation.

“Diligent hands will rule, but laziness ends in slave labor” (Proverbs 12:24).

Good work should be constant. Being known as a worker of excellence should be a 24/7 pursuit. “Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let not your hands be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well”(Ecclesiastes 11:6).

Kaye Communications Sponsors Sixth Annual “White Coats-4Care” Reception To Benefit Fau’s Schmidt College Of Medicine Kaye Communications, Inc. and its principals Bonnie and Jon Kaye invite the community to the sixth annual “White Coats-4Care” awareness and fund raising reception to benefit Florida Atlantic University’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine on Monday, August 1st from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Waterstone Resort & Marina’s penthouse-level Atlantic Ballroom located at 999 East Camino Real in Boca Raton.

Conceived to “dress and equip” the college’s incoming class each year for success, the event is presented to heighten awareness of the first and only medical school in Palm Beach County, to embrace Florida’s future physicians with a warm community welcome and raise vital funds to equip these students with the tools they need to begin their medical education and launch their careers. WC4C proceeds fund medical school scholarships.

Reception admission is invitation-only for those who pledge or donate a minimum per-person gift of $125 to underwrite and dedicate a white coat for a new medical student or a choice of other contribution opportunities, including: $125 White Coat (one guest) $300 White Coat Ceremony Sponsorship (two guests) $500 Medical Student Scholarship Award In Memory of Founding Dean Michael L. Friedland (two guests) $750 Family/Corporate Medical Student Scholarship Award (three guests) $1,000 Named Seat in the Medical Education Auditorium (a personalized donor recognition or tribute plate will be placed on back of each seat-four guests) $5,000 “Named” Medical Student Scholarship Fund (six guests) *based on need “This year we are introducing a new dimension to the program that demonstrates how our future physicians learn,” noted Kaye Communications Founder & Chief Strategist Bonnie Kaye who along with partner and husband Jon Kaye created and presented the WC4C reception for six consecutive years raising more than $150,000 for white coats and medical student scholarships. Attendees will be front-and-center as secondyear medical students respond to a lifethreatening patient emergency in simulated experience.

“Being an annual sell-out event during the summer months, speaks volumes as community leaders in business, healthcare, education and government recognize and converge to celebrate one of Boca Raton’s most treasured health and wellness assets and support its new incoming class of medical students,” added Jon Kaye. Sponsors include Excell Auto Group, Dalismer Atlas, Boca Magazine and Boca Tribune.

FAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine officially welcomes its sixth incoming class of 64 students the following Friday, August 5, 2016 at its coveted White Coat Ceremony. During the ceremony, each medical student will receive a white coat that represents integrity, compassion and trust and symbolizes their shared commit-

July 8 - July 14 , 2016

ment to serve patients and honor an oath they will collectively develop before the ceremony that will serve as its own code of conduct throughout medical school and as physicians. A ‘welcome to the community’ note from each WC4C donor will be inserted into a student’s coat pocket.

The incoming class has a cumulative GPA of 3.7 and an average MCAT score of 32, which is above the national average. Most of the major colleges in Florida are represented including students from FAU. Other students in the class attended undergraduate institutions such as Boston University, Yale University, George Washington University, University of California-Davis, Brigham Young University, Cornell University, Dartmouth College, Duke University, Johns Hopkins, Ohio State University, and others.

White Coats-4-Care is part of Boca Chamber Festival Days (a series of fun-filled events held at different locations during the month of August) coordinated by the Boca Chamber. For 26 years, the summer event series pairs for-profit chamber members, such as Kaye Communications, with nonprofit member, such as the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine, to help raise awareness and vital funds for area nonprofits.

Thanks to Comprehensive Plan, This Patient Finally Gets Dental Treatment She Needed

Sharon Eisenstein had recently moved into a new home when she found herself in the midst of a dental emergency. While moving furniture around, Eisenstein tripped, break-

ing her front two teeth on the ground.

“I always had a difficult time dealing with having to go to the dentist,” explains Eisenstein. “But things changed.”

After conducting some online research, Eisenstein found Dr. Fatmi and his dental group. Dr. Fatmi and his team at Regency Court Dentistry provide comprehensive care and specialize in everything from extractions and root canals to denture and crown repairs. Along with offering many dental services, they believe in a personal approach; getting to know their clients and coming up with a treatment plan together.

“I called him first thing in the morning and he was immediately compassionate,” she says. “He dropped everything and met me very early at his office. From there, it is a wonderful history of professionalism, kindness, compassion and expertise.”

Eisenstein left with temporary front teeth and had a permanent set by 5 p.m. that day. She attributes the ease of her experience to the calmness and thoroughness

Tipster Leads Boca Police to Robbery, Sexual Battery Suspect

By CRA News Service

BOCA RATON - A teenager was arrested and charged after using an advertisement on a website to lure and rob multiple people, Boca Raton Police said.

Gary Rojas, 18, also sexually battered one of the victims, according to the police report.

Police charged him with armed robbery, armed kidnapping and armed sexual battery.

The Boynton Beach teen was being held in the Palm Beach County Jail without bond.

The victim told detectives that Rojas called her on June 20 about a posting she placed on the website Backpage.com, advertising a room for rent, according to the police report. She said Rojas expressed interest in the room, and they arranged to meet so she could show it to him. As she waited outside

the home, Rojas pulled up in a silver Volkswagen Beetle, she told police.

“While looking at the room, the suspect pulled out a gun and repeatedly told the victim he wanted to kill her and demanded money,” police wrote in the report. “The victim said she would give him money but she would have to drive to the ATM to get it.”

Rojas drove the woman’s car to the TD Bank on West Palmetto Park Road and withdrew $700, police said.

While in the car, Rojas told the woman that he wanted to rent a room at a hotel and have her lure men there so he could rob them, she told police.

A similar incident happened at the Boca Inn the following morning when two victims arranged to meet the suspect also through the same website, police said. The suspect arrived and once inside the victim’s room, brandished a gun and demanded money.

The victims did not have any money and the suspect eventually left in a silver Volkswagen Beetle, police said.

Police linked Rojas to both incidents after using surveillance video from the TD Bank to confirm his identity. They posted the images of Rojas on social media and someone recognized him and called police.

Police tracked down Rojas, who confessed to both robberies.

“It was also determined that the suspect has access to a silver Volkswagen Beetle registered to a family member in Boynton Beach,” according to the police report. “Rojas was arrested Wednesday evening without incident and the gun was recovered which turned out to be a BB gun.”

of the dental office staff.

She continued her dental maintenance with Dr. Fatmi’s hygienist Sue every three months. It was a first for her. Prior to finding Regency Court Dentistry, she had only received dental maintenance every year at best.

Several months later, Eisenstein started Invisalign, a straightening system that uses invisible aligners to move teeth into place over the course of a year. The aim was to straighten her lower teeth to improve her bite. She commented that her Invisalign treatment was ‘exciting, and very comfortable,’ pointing out how she even stopped drinking coffee to keep her teeth from yellowing under the aligners.

Following its completion, she continued visiting the office for teeth whitening treatments. In addition, she had multiple veneers put in and had her cheek evened out with the cosmetic filler Juviderm.

“Not only was it painless, but it came out

looking so natural. No one could ever tell.”

Eisensteinwould recommend Dr. Fatmi not only because he is a calm and educated man but also because of his advanced techniques, upscale equipment and his amazing staff.

"Operation Chill" Warms Relationship Between Delray Cops, Kids

By CRA News Service

Those youngsters caught in the act of doing a good deed this summer can expect to get “ticketed” by a local police officer.

But the citation won’t be punitive. Instead, it will be a reward for doing the right thing as part of a nationwide campaign.

Such was the case this week when Officer Adam Whiting noticed 5-year-old Jeremi helping his parents clean their house for a move.

“I observed him carrying what he could,” Whiting said. “He enjoys super heroes and has his own super-punch that he showed me.”

Whiting rewarded Jeremi with an Operation Chill coupon and let him check out his police car, which Jeremi also enjoyed.

Coupon can be redeemed for a small Slurpee drink at participating 7-Eleven stores Appropriate “offenses” might include wearing bicycle helmets, doing good deeds,

www.bocaratontribune.com

participating in community activities and organizations, picking up trash, deterring crime or observing street crossing rules.

Over the past 21 years, 7-Eleven, Inc. has helped thousands of police officers recognize and encourage good behavior by kids during the hot summer months, when there is often an increase in loitering, shoplifting and graffiti, and to support law enforcement agencies' community relations projects.

Big-city departments and small-town forces alike use the Slurpee coupons to enhance relations with the young people of their cities by rewarding them for good deeds, positive activities and acts of kindness.

7-Eleven’s proprietary Slurpee is a semifrozen carbonated beverage. More than a half-million Slurpees are purchased each day during the summer at 7-Eleven stores across the country.

Kylee Hanson Named C-USA Female Athlete of the Year Adding to an already lengthy list of accolades, Florida Atlantic University softball pitcher Kylee Hanson was named Conference USA Female Athlete of the Year, the league office announced on Thursday.

“This honor caps off an extraordinary year for an extraordinary student-athlete,” said Pat Chun, FAU’s vice president and director of athletics. “Kylee Hanson sets the bar for our entire athletics program both on the field and in the classroom. We are proud of Kylee’s accomplishments as well as the accomplishments of the entire softball program.”

Hanson, who recently completed her junior season, finished the year with a 28-5 record and led the nation in ERA (0.76), shutouts (15) and hits per seven innings (3.33).

She also was named the Conference USA Pitcher of the Year. At the C-USA tournament, Hanson won tournament MVP after leading the softball team to the school’s first C-USA tournament title in any sport. Her 16-0 mark in league play during the year set a C-USA record.

Hanson, FAU’s Female Athlete of the Year, earned Conference USA Pitcher of the Week seven times in 2016 and was named National Player of the Week by both ESPNW and NFCA. She was a Top-10 Finalist for the National Player of the Year Award and ended her junior season second in school history in career ERA, opponent batting average and strikeouts per seven innings, trailing only Nikki Myers, who, like Hanson, garnered All-American honors.

“It’s an honor to receive this award, I couldn’t have done it without my teammates, coaching staff and support system that’s here at FAU,” said Hanson. “I’m very excited about this accomplishment, but I’m looking forward to what’s to come in my senior year.”

Florida Atlantic finished the 2016 season with a 51-9 record. The Owls set a school record by winning 21 consecutive games, sweeping the C-USA regular season and tournament titles, and advancing to its second straight NCAA Regional.

Edition 275 - 15

Club World Cup Champion and Former Brazilian National, Amoroso Joins Boca Raton FC Boca Raton Football Club is excited to announce the signing of former Brazilian National Team, and São Paulo forward Márcio Amoroso, better known as simply Amoroso for the the 2016 APSL Season.

Amoroso, known for his time with teams such as São Paulo, Flamengo, Parma, and Borussia Dortmund, and the Brazilian National Team, comes to Boca Raton as he looks to invest in the ever-growing game here in the United States, and more specifically Boca Raton.

I’m very excited to be in Boca Raton. The club has a solid plan and I firmly believe in the vision of the club and their goals to grow soccer in the United States,” said Amoroso. “Soccer in the United States is growing and I want to be a part of this, my plans are to grow with Boca and jump in with them in new projects to catapult not only the team, but the sport in the US.” “We are very excited, and honored to have a player like Amoroso playing with us,” said Club President, Douglas Heizer. “His arrival in Boca Raton will be very important not only for this season, but most importantly for all the long-term projects of the club.”

Looking to leave his mark in the sport here in the United States, Amoroso’s goal isn’t to simply play for Boca Raton, but to be an ambassador of the club not only in the US,

but to the world.

“Boca Raton FC wants to be a club that grows talent and puts them in bigger teams in the United States and with Amoroso’s experience it will be paramount for us in our plans,” added Heizer. “We have many young players currently playing with us and we want them to know with Boca Raton their dreams will turn a reality. We are very excited to have the ‘Rei do MorumTri’ (King of MotumTri) join us and become the King of Boca Raton!”

The 5’11 forward began his career at Guarani FC in 1992. In the 1994 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A he was the tournament’s top scorer. In 1996, he transferred to Flamengo, but he came to prominence playing in the Italian Serie A for Udinese in the late1990s. When top scorer Oliver Bierhoff left the club for A.C. Milan in 1998, many thought Udinese Calcio would struggle to repeat their success, but that very next season Amoroso himself became the focus of the team, and was the top scorer in Serie A with 22 goals. The following season, he transferred to the defending UEFA Cup and Coppa Italia champions Parma.

In 2001, Amoroso made the move to Bundesliga-side, Borussia Dortmund, where he spent three years and scored 28 goals, in his first season with the club he helped the team with the Bundesliga title and was

also the league’s top scorer. The following season Amoroso led Borussia Dortmund to the 2002 UEFA Cup Final.

Amoroso moved to São Paulo in the summer of 2005 and helped them to the Copa Libertadores, as well as a FIFA Club World Cup, where he finished as the tournament’s top scorer.

“Having a player of his resume join our club speaks volumes of the work our ownership group is doing,” says head coach Pedro Yunes. “Even at 41, Amoroso will be a strong weapon in the APSL and we are glad he’s playing for us and not the the opposing teams.”

www.bocaratontribune.com

Amoroso is also a former Brazilian National Team member, where he debuted in a 5-0 win over Chile in 1995 and was an integral part of the 1999 Brazilian National Team that won the Copa America in Paraguay that year, Amoroso scored four goal in the tournament, only second to Rivaldo and Ronaldo who both scored five.

Amoroso will debut with Boca Raton FC in their matchup versus Hurricanes FC at Broward College on July 9th at 6pm. Tickets can be purchased at www.bocaratonfc. com/tickets.
