A New Year and new Soffer Sanctuary for Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center in 5774
his year marks the 24th anniversary of Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center’s (ATJC) Synagogue and Soffer Sanctuary. Many congregants can still recall the feelings of excitement and expectation they experienced that special day in September, 1990, when they marched together from the storefront near Publix to the newly-built, state-of-the-art facility. The synagogue has greatly expanded over the years to include the Tauber Academy, newly-renovated youth lounge, Holocaust memorial, museum, gallery, and Heritage Wall that boast beautiful works of art by internationally-acclaimed Jewish artists. Under the spiritual leadership of Rabbi Jonathan Berkun with Cantor David Muchnick and Ritual & Youth Director Cantor Marcos Askenazi, the congregation has enjoyed many meaningful and inspiring Shabbat and holiday services, weddings, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, dinner dances, and other simchas. ATJC has also hosted the visits of major dignitaries from the United States, Europe and Israel, heads of state, members of government, world-famous journalists, scholars, cultural icons, celebrities and other honored guests who were impressed with ATJC and the congregation, and helped to establish its sterling reputation as one of the leading synagogues in America. Over the years, thousands of worshippers and guests both young and old, have enjoyed ATJC’s facilities. Although the Soffer Sanctuary continues to be aesthetically pleasing, the years of use have forced ATJC to embark upon the “Building for the Future” Campaign to renovate, revitalize and upgrade the Soffer Sanctuary. “The Soffer This renovation inSanctuary is the cludes new dome, jewel in the crown seating, carpeting, of Aventura additional stained Turnberry Jewish glass windows, Center, the heart wood molding, and soul of the painting, repairs and Aventura Jewish several enhancecommunity.” ments.

Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center also recognized Chairman of the Board, William Landa, for having the vision, determination and perseverance to see this project through to completion. Additional credit for this major renovation was extended to the synagogue’s President, Marcy Resnik, for her leadership and direction in all aspects of the project. She saw this project as the culmination of her term as president and committed herself to supporting the effort and ensuring its completion in time for the Jewish holidays. Executive Vice President Dr. Amir Baron noted, “The Soffer Sanctuary is the jewel in the crown of Aventura Turnberry Jewish Center, the heart and soul of the Aventura Jewish community. We would like to express our gratitude to our major benefactor, Don Soffer, a great humanitarian and philanthropist, who had the vision and the understanding of the need to build the synagogue in our city of excellence and for dedicating the Soffer Sanctuary in memory of his beloved parSee SOFFER SANCTUARY, page 4 Photography by Andrew Goldstein

FPL urges customers to call 811 before they dig At the height of summer, when outdoor projects are also peaking, Florida Power & Light Company encourages Floridians to call 811 before beginning work that might involve digging. FPL partners with Sunshine 811, the organization that offers the free call service for utility line marking, to heighten awareness about underground line safety. Whether building a pool, installing a fence, planting a tree or some other outdoor project that might require digging, the work should start by making a free call to 811 so that underground utility lines can be marked. Excavators should call at least two full business days before digging to prevent outages, injuries, environmental contamination and potential fines.
"At FPL, safety is always a priority," said Joe Heatherly, FPL's Lead Cable Locator. "There are underground utilities that you may not even suspect are there and if you hit one of them it can be dangerous." In addition to being underground, utility lines can also run beneath canals and waterways throughout Florida so a call to 811 before beginning any excavation work on docks, seawalls, bridges, etc. will also ensure that utilities are properly identified in and around the water. "FPL receives about 2,000 requests every day for line locating," said Heatherly. "We encourage everyone to call 811 before tackling outdoor projects. The process is free, easy and it is required by law." For more information, visit FPL.com

To Shred or Not
Patricia C. Frank FRANKLY SPEAKING A shredder is a machine that has sharp blades and cuts things into pieces until there is nothing left of the original item. It destroys and gets rid of things completely and forever. This is an important and useful tool to have. It makes space for new things that are more important in your life. It decreases your vulnerability and it protects you from harm and potential danger. A psychological shredder will do the same things for you. The blades and cuts a shredder makes may hurt but not as much as keeping things the way they are. Use your psychological shredder to collect all the negative thoughts and all of the negative things in your life and shred them. Shred all of your traumas, shame, hatred, selfishness, self-destructive behaviors, doubts, anxieties and fears. Shred all of your regrets and all of the things that you feel guilty about. Shred all of your old nonproductive, harmful, hurtful, thoughts,
habits and actions. It is a very significant and powerful ritual for you to actually write down the things you wish to get rid of on a piece of paper. Then put those papers through the shredder one by one. Be aware, as you do so, that they are truly finished and no longer exist. Be careful. Don’t shred your faith, hope, trust and love. Don’t shred your dreams. Don’t shred your self - esteem. Keep all of your positive beliefs about yourself and life and all of your positive traits intact. Write all of them down and put that paper someplace where you will see it everyday, several times a day. Do not accumulate new negatives. If something negative occurs go immediately to the shredder and get rid of it. Remember to replace whatever you shred with something new and positive. A shredder is a tool of empowerment. It allows you to be in complete control. You alone can decide what to dispose of and what to keep. Patricia Frank is a Licensed Psychotherapist.

My Birthday-A Celebration of Freedom
Bob Diamond HISTORICALLY YOURS On June 19th (my 82nd birthday), I researched if there had been an important historical event that occurred on that date. I hit the jackpot, as I read the connection of my birthday with the final announcement of the end of slavery. “Juneteenth,” as the date is commonly known, is also known as “Freedom Day” or “Emancipation Day.” Issued by President Lincoln on January 1, 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation called for the freeing of all slaves in the Confederate states which were then in rebellion (Civil War), over which Lincoln had no control. The Confederate states in rebellion were fighting to preserve their right to slavery. Little by little, however, word of the Proclamation leaked out in some Southern states, resulting in some 200,000 slaves fleeing the Confederacy to join the Union troops. With the Civil war effectively ending with Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendering in April, 1865, Lincoln took the final step in
urging the abolition of all slavery in America. Texas, however, continued to maintain slavery. On June 18, 1865, Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, with 2,000 federal troops, “to take possession of the state and enforce the emancipation of its slaves.” The following day, June 19th, Gen. Granger stood on the balcony of Galveston’s Ashton Villa Hotel and announced to all that the war had ended, further stating: “The people of Texas are hereby informed that in accordance with a Proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free.” Over 200,000 former slaves rejoiced in the streets of Texas with jubilant celebrations on the announcement of their freedom. This was followed shortly thereafter by ratification of the 13th Amendment, freeing all slaves in America. “Juneteenth” is the oldest known actual celebration commemorating the end of slavery in America. Annual celebrations in Texas by former slaves grew with more participation by slave descendants and African Americans. The importance of the date spread from Texas to the entire nation; “Juneteenth” is now recognized as a state holiday in 42 states and celebrations are held annually in about 250 cities throughout the nation.

Don’t Die Before Reading This! BY RUSSEL LAZEGA, Attorney and Author
No, really. Not unless you want your family to get the runaround from your life insurer should something awful happen. You see, life insurance has become a tricky business – at least if you want to collect on a policy. The gambit of excuses for not paying is as varied as Emelda Marcos’ shoe collection. Some use the old “we can’t locate a policy;” others stay quiet, simply refusing to notify surviving family members that the insured even had coverage; and, still more scour the decedent’s medical records for any tidbit that was not disclosed when the policy was issued, so they can disclaim coverage and refuse payment. Here’s what you need to know to protect yourself: 1) No Policy Found – Insurers by law must keep detailed customer records and make diligent efforts to locate beneficiaries in the event of a claim. That said, still keep a copy of your policy with your will or important papers. Don’t have a copy? Ask your agent for one. 2) Prepare for the Silent Treatment – No, not the “you forgot our anniversary” silent
treatment – the insurance company’s “don’t ask, don’t tell about your claim silent treatment.” Tell your lawyer and beneficiaries about the policy and where to find it. 3) This wasn’t what I bargained for – Some insurers will try to avoid paying the claim by scouring through the decedent’s medical records to see if any pertinent medical information was omitted from the application or misrepresented. They’ll then void coverage and say this wasn’t the risk they bargained for. Know that if the insurance policy is more than two year’s old and paidup then the insurance company is stuck with you. For newer policies, a lawyer can often show that application questions were unclear or the insurer had the information. Remember, insurance is an ugly business. Prepare now before it’s too late. Russel Lazega is an attorney and author of two of Florida’s most widely distributed legal textbooks on Florida Insurance Law. He has also served as chief general counsel to an auto insurer. Mr. Lazega currently represents accident victims and consumers at war with their insurance companies. He is based in Dania Beach, North Miami, Orlando and Tampa, Florida. Contact: Russ@lazegalaw.com.

For more than 13 years, the Caracas, Venezuela native has been applying her expertise to positions at Marriott, and now she takes the lead as the new senior sales manager at the Residence Inn Miami Aventura Mall. Before coming to this extendedstay hotel near Miami, Lopez spent time with Marriott as a sales manager with a focus on corporate, group and golf sales. Raised in Miami, Lopez studied at Florida International University, where she received a bachelor's in international business.

turing suites with a full kitchen, the Residence Inn Miami Aventura Mall caters to a variety of travelers, including those looking for an event or wedding venue that can accommodate a large guest list (the largest event space can host up to 150).

Doctor Aromas, the revolutionary new way to deliver well-being The company, founded in 2005, has created a product revolutionary to its industry. Through the HVAC system, Doctor Aromas system provides any space, small or large, with an even and consistent scent, and the benefits of aromatherapy. The system’s dispenser sprays a mixture of essential oils and natural fragrances into the AC filter, allowing the fan to disseminate the scent across the space. The dispenser can be programmed to automatically spray any of the ten scents available at desired intervals, making sure the space is perfumed to taste. “Companies spend hundreds of dollars on candles, incense, and plug-ins that do not deliver the quality nor the well-being sensation that Doctor Aromas provides,” said founder Marcelo Zelicovich. “Our fragrances will make your space smell truly wonderful and ensure that you feel the health benefits of aromatherapy.” Doctor Aromas, originally created exclusively for large spaces, serves some of Miami’s most luxurious hotels and condos, like Aventura Marina II, Peninsula II, Parc Central and all Trump buildings in the area. Since 2012, the company has provided the same product for smaller spaces, like homes and offices. This one can be bought online, on the phone, at their office in North Miami, or at the Miami Home Design and Remodeling Show at the Miami Beach Convention Center this August 30 - September 3, where
Doctor Aromas will participate with testers and a special product discount. The dispenser is battery-operated and can be easily set up on any central AC unit for spaces of any size. Adriana Giraldo, a resident of Trump Hollywood, said that she decided to buy her apartment largely due to the aroma of the building’s lobby. “I then made the decision to install Doctor Aromas product in my own apartment,” she said. “Today my family and I have the pleasure of living in a very pleasant environment.” For more information, visit Doctor Aromas at www.facebook.com/DrAromas or at www.doctoraromas.com.

Cardiovascular Risk Factors Dr. Carlos Zamora MOUNT SINAI HEALTH CORNER Heart disease is the number one cause of death in the United States. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that every year 600,000 Americans die of heart disease, which is one in every four deaths. With such an alarming number, how can we better understand and identify who is at risk for heart disease? The most significant risk factors for heart disease are hypertension, high LDL cholesterol or low HDL cholesterol, and smoking cigarettes. It is estimated that 49% of Americans have at least one of these risk factors. Other risk factors include diabetes, a family history of premature coronary heart disease, men and women above 45 and 55 years old respectively, physical inactivity, poor diet and excessive alcohol intake. The cornerstone for prevention of cardiovascular disease is to maintain a healthy lifestyle that consists of daily exercise (the American Heart Association recommends 30 – 60 minutes a day), a diet rich in fish, fruits, vegetables, and low in fat. It is also important to maintain a low level of stress; and, smoking cessation is imperative. If you have already been diagnosed with diabetes, hypertension or elevated blood cholesterol, you should follow these instructions together along with appropriate pharmacological therapy when recommended by your
doctor. The ideal age to begin having your heart regularly checked is at above 35 years of age for a man or above 45 years of age for a woman. A general cardiovascular check up should include a detailed cardiovascular history and physical examination, followed by an electrocardiogram (EKG), fasting lipid profile (blood cholesterol level), blood pressure measurement and body mass index (BMI) measurement. There may possibly be more advanced diagnostic studies performed such as echocardiogram, stress test, coronary calcium and carotid ultrasound. If you already have been diagnosed with heart disease, it is even more important to have your risk factors managed and very well monitored, in order to prevent future cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke or even death. Above all, it is important for you to be involved in your heart care with your cardiologist, with a focus on active prevention and adequate treatment, including lifestyle changes and appropriate medications when needed. Remember, life’s circumstances may change, and a visit to your doctor may be needed to assure you are on the right track for keeping your heart healthy. Dr. Carlos Zamora is a cardiologist and associate professor with the Columbia University Division of Cardiology at Mount Sinai Medical Center. Dr. Zamora sees patients at Mount Sinai Aventura’s multi-specialty physician office and Mount Sinai Primary & Specialty Care Coral Gables. He is fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Volunteers are needed. No prior experience with Special Olympics is necessary to volunteer and it’s a great activity for families, coworkers and friends. All volunteers must present a photo ID upon arrival. For more information about volunteer opportunities, call Special Olympics Florida –

For close to eight years, Leeza’s Place at Memorial Hospital Pembroke has served as a support and resource center for all types of family caregivers who are dealing with any chronic or progressive illness. Although its mission will continue, the center now bears a new name – Leeza’s Care Connection. “The name change more clearly defines what we do for the caregivers we serve,” said Bonnie Bonomo, program director of Leeza’s Care Connection. “We learned over the years of working with family caregivers that they feel best when connected to each other and to support services, resources and their own strength of spirit. Our unique programming helps caregivers gain self-confidence and learn the skills needed to tackle their new life of change, allowing them to feel like, ‘I can do it’.” Leeza’s Care Connection, located on the campus of Memorial Hospital Pembroke, is a safe place for caregivers to share experiences and be heard, but more than that, it is a place where family caregivers go to ask questions, get answers, find resources and get support.
“It is a place that teaches caregivers to take their own oxygen first, and hold onto themselves while caring for someone they love,” Bonomo explains. The center, the only one of its kind in Broward County, offers 16 support groups and over 30 programs every month. Programs include everything from educational lectures and trainings, teaching coping strategies, self-care and wellness to Reiki Healing Energy, laughter yoga and drumming circles to reduce stress. One-on-one family meetings are offered to help families assess and navigate resources in the community. Guest lecturers, class instructors and all program materials provided at Leeza’s Care Connection are donated. All services and programs are free of charge and funded by Memorial Healthcare System and private donations. Leeza’s Care Connection at Memorial Hospital Pembroke is located at 2261 North University Drive #103, Pembroke Pines, Florida 33024.

Resolve ‘immigration situations’ with Haratz & Stubbe, LLC BY BARI AUERBACH
Ever since Sherley Haratz and Vivianna Stubbe forged a partnership combining over a decade of expertise focusing on immigration law, the internationally renowned attorneys have been helping clients coming to their Aventura-based law firm from throughout the U.S. and abroad resolve virtually all types of immigration situations. “Aventura is a conducive market for immigration legal services due to the high density of foreign nationals and the city’s central location between Miami-Dade and Broward counties,” explains Stubbe, who has represented clients before U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, U.S. embassies and consulates and the Immigration Courts. “Our firm can help foreign national clients take advantage of this area’s range of quality businesses and services by obtaining visas for skilled workers and clients who want to invest or start companies in this country. We also assist corporations in transferring employees seeking permanent residency – many of whom are relocating to the Aventura area.” Haratz and Stubbe attorneys have previously been contracted by state and federal government agencies, and other organizations to provide training at the state and na-
tional level to other attorneys, law enforcement officials and community leaders about various complex areas of immigration law. Strong relationships with numerous government and community agencies further support Haratz and Stubbe’s ability to facilitate successful case outcomes. Beyond helping professionals, investors, visitors, students, athletes and entertainers obtain non-immigrant visas, Haratz and Stubbe provide many other immigration-related services such as immigrant visas and employment-based petitions, work permits, re-entry permits, replacement/extension of permanent resident cards, citizenship/naturalization, U visas, and PERM applications. “We take a very client-centered, highly individualized approach,” emphasizes Haratz, who is fluent in English, Spanish and Hebrew. “Our greatest reward is providing guidance that helps our diverse clients make well-informed decisions ultimately opening doors to the endless possibilities the U.S. offers.” To arrange a consultation to discuss your immigration situation, contact Haratz & Stubbe Law Offices, One Aventura Executive Center, 20900 Northeast 30th Avenue, Suite 717, phone: 305- 503-5195, visit www.haratzstubbe.com or email: info@haratzstubbe.com.
