COMMUNITY NEWS LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
Your Community Magazine
A Nod to Grads, Dads, Flags and the Kick-back Care-free “Dog” Days of Summer Spring sprung, April showers (not that many) brought BOTH some May SoFLA flowers AND just the beginning of “Scorch” (what we call our summer heat). And believe it or not, here we are HALFWAY thru 2017 --starting June. Gemini babies, June brides, Graduation BYLINE HERE “season,” and the chance to honor our flag and our fathers. School’s out, the “pressure” of season lapses a bit, and we get to breathe a bit deeper, linger a little longer and maybe sneak in a summer read or two. But in South Florida there’s no skirting it---IT’S H—O—T!! For many of us, we take a vacation (usually heading to slightly cooler climes). The kids either “do” camp, or gather
with friends in the ‘hood and as the weather heats up, the pace finally slows. To our readers celebrating a wedding, a graduation or a new life, we wish you the blessing of savoring the memory and relishing the moment. To those who are a Dad, love a Dad or sorely miss a Dad, know you are the very, very lucky ones. The love and presence of a father, is beyond articulation. We celebrate (are are grateful to) the men who care --for their impact on us is immeasurable. And lastly, maybe more important today than ever-- on Wednesday, June 14 make the effort to fly a flag. Whether you hoist it up a pole, fly it on your car, or carry its significance in your heart; the AMERICAN FLAG signifies freedom, bravery, kindness, greatness and should stir deep within you an abiding sense of pride. No matter where you sit on the rollercoaster of political rhetoric, it’s still—and ALWAYS will be a privilege to be an American. Enjoy the start of a wonderful summer.
interactive website --viewed by more than 300,000 people every month, we’ve taken a giant step to be more than just your community publication, but your community advocate as well. While we know we can’t be all things to all people, we are sincerely trying to bring you a concerned, family-friendly and informative magazine that leads with compassion and caring first. We want to welcome the residents of Pompano Beach who we now reach due to the merger between the Margate and Pompano Chamber s of Commerce and we look forward to not just a great summer, but a hopeful nod to our collective future.

My view from the City Council BY RoBeRt S. WeinRoth
Downtown Boca Raton continues its transformation
W
ith the grand opening of Louie bossi ristorante at Hyatt Place, Downtown boca raton continues its transformation into a vibrant destination for great food, entertainment and culture. our challenge, now, is to ensure we not become a victim of our success. Much of the criticism directed at the development of our downtown has been focused on less than abundant parking and congestion on our streets. increased traffic is not, altogether, a result of the greater density of the new buildings dotting our rejuvenated downtown. to our north, south and west, construction is moving at full bore. even if boca raton was not undergoing the redevelopment, “background� traffic (passing through our city) would require attention. Prior to redevelopment, our roads and infrastructure were upgraded to accommodate the additional residents. However, along the way, the growth of our neighboring communities has placed additional stress on our roads. transportation is an area where many state, county and municipal staff and elected officials have focused a considerable amount of time and energy to respond to the continuing influx of residents. Floridians are resistant to alternatives that require them to forsake their private passenger vehicle. but additional pavement is not the answer to traffic congestion. the challenge is to create a multimodal solution with complete streets (engineered for safe travel by pedestrians, bicyclists and motor vehicles) in tandem with greater acceptance of public transportation. while projects designed to upgrade our interstates and arterial roadways continue to absorb most of the funding generated by the gas taxes, attention has begun to shift to viewing transportation in a more holistic fashion. brightline (formerly known as all aboard Florida) is poised to launch its passenger service on the Fec (eastern) tracks this summer. while initially, trains will bypass boca raton, there are plans to add intermediate stops between Miami and orlando as ridership increases. brightline is upgrading the Fec tracks (creating a spur connecting the csX tracks that tri-rail uses to the Fec track). this has the potential of facilitating a more convenient way to commute downtown, which, in turn, may convince an increasing number of commuters to leave their cars at home reducing the traffic on i-95. old habits die hard and it is clear people will not abandon their private passenger vehicles, en mass, overnight. However, with the millennials joining the workforce and autonomous vehicles ushering in greater use of ridesharing (subscription) services, the urge to lease or purchase multiple vehicles for family transport (and the need to set aside multiple parking spaces at each destination point for each vehicle) will be reduced. unless and until the riding public sees the alternatives to private passenger vehicles (to move to and from their destination choice) as more cost effective and efficient, public transportation ridership will remain stagnant and ride sharing will not yield the full potential of its benefits. this is the challenge we, as urban planners, must meet to avoid the commuting nightmare many of us left behind when we migrated to southern Florida.

BECOMING A FRORIDA RESIDENT?

as the Florida season winds down, snowbirds often consider whether now is the time to make the move to become a Florida resident. whether you are changing your domicile from New york, michigan, Pennsylvania, or elsewhere, the rules are generally the same. the focus here is from changing from a New york domicile to Florida, but the concepts apply across the board. Just because you “feel” you have moved the center of your life to Florida, you must be prepared to document such a change when questioned by your former home state on audit.
FIRST TIMERS ONLY
taxpayers are subject to the full incidence of tax in New york if they are domiciled here, or maintain a permanent place of abode in New york, and are present in New york for more than 183 days. a part day in New york is considered a day. this day count test is commonly known as the statutory residence test. Domicile is a subjective test as to where one actually lives and considers to be their home. To avoid a statutory residence finding, one must prove they were not present in New york for more than 183 days. to prevail on audit, one must document each day, establishing their whereabouts (either in or out of New york) with supporting documentation. these same rules apply to New york state residents who may have a New york city pied-à-terre.

• Contemporaneous diary • Credit card receipts (personal and corporate cards) • Parking records • Bank statements showing location of ATM withdrawals • Cell phone records (copies of statements should be requested monthly.) • Records of entry into buildings (“swipe” cards). These should be requested monthly. • Expense reports submitted to one’s employer. Keep your own copy. • Relevant records showing restaurant, gas, auto repair, medical, charges, • Car service receipts • Records of club or gym usage • Proof of vacation days (especially if travelling away from the New York area) • Passports • Records of private jet travel, if applicable.

Actions to Consider When Establishing a Florida Domicile: retaining the records noted above will not cause you to prevail in a domicile examination if you have not been able to clearly demonstrate your change in domicile from your former state to the new state. while domicile is a “state of mind”, there are things you can do to support your change in domicile. • File for Florida Declaration of Domicile pursuant to F.S. 222.17 • File a Florida Homestead Declaration for your Florida home • Obtain a Florida driver’s license and register your vehicles in Florida • Terminate Automobile registrations and licenses in your prior home State • Register to vote in Florida and actually vote. • Terminate your registration to vote in your prior state of residence • Change your personal checking and savings accounts to Florida • Close any New York State safe deposit box and open a Florida box

hen long-time coral springs resident bessie cristwell was growing up in belle glade the eldest of six, she says she understood they were poor but never really felt it. “with as little as we had i remember asking my mother, “momma why are you giving away our food?’ i didn’t ask again,” says the indefatigable “miss bessie,” as legions of those she’s helped call her. “mom’s answer is what has guided me, molded me and been the truth i’ve lived ever since. ‘bessie,’ mom said not skipping a beat. ‘giving makes yoU feel good too.’” a third grade teacher at riverside Elementary in coral springs over 10 years, miss bessie has worked in the broward county school system in some capacity helping, guiding, mentoring and shaping the minds of the young since the 60s. with no advantages other than parents who believed in her, iron will and a sense of purpose that’s almost palpable, bessie set her sights on living a life she could be proud of, and that she’s achieved in spades. Her academic achievements would leave room for little else on this page—associate, bachelor of arts, master of Education, Educational specialist Degree and a doctorate in theology/Psychology highlight her accomplishments. Suffice it to say her parents would be proud. And so are her kids. a successful pharmacist daughter and a son who served in the Navy and now works for our government in Japan. she thought she married for

life, but like many of the families she’s helped over the years, life threw her a curve ball and she found herself a divorced, single mom on her own in coral springs. “i knew that the life i knew could be pulled from me. but instead of dissolving, i resolved to be successful. i got tight with my money, made do, worked harder and though it was terrifying at times with two children depending on me, it brought understanding of others. some are so quick to judge you by your situation, or economic standing. but sometimes just an illness, job loss, a tragedy, throws a family into turmoil. there are 3,000 children living in shelters in broward county at any given moment,” she says with passion. “People wouidn’t believe how many kids going to our local schools go “home” to a shelter, after school.” as a teacher she could see changes in behavior, but instead of turning her back and just “doing her job,” she cHoosE to go deeper. “some kids are embarrassed because they have almost no clothes to wear and that makes them want to stop going to school, or in some cases act inappropriately, heading toward a dark path. sometimes all that’s needed is a tiny kindness. i’d see a child who had no lunch, so i’d get them lunch. a kid who never spoke of a gift, got a toy for doing their homework, helping with chores or helping others.” Pretty soon most everyone in the school system knew who “miss bessie” was. Neighbors and friends started to pitch in and bags of clothes that no longer fit their kids were given to Miss Bessie who brought them to a child whose whole life became uplifted by that kindness.
Why City News Chose her as our 2017 HUMANITARIAN OF THE YEAR since we had the pleasure of meeting bessie while we sponsored last year’s coral springs martin Luther King golf tournament, we have never come across someone so dedicated to helping others aLL tHE timE. our magazine group helps with all her many causes that she is involved in. Her daily mantra is ‘it’s Not aboUt yoU, IT IS WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR OTHERS”, first quoted by martin Luther King Jr., her idol. From her work with the abused and homeless kids of broward, to our donation of 180+ tickets to Disney on ice, boxes and boxes of clothing and more, bessie is working for her kids, all the time. we work to assist her any way we can. bessie has become their Life Coach; instilling them with confidence that they can achieve their dream as well as the joy of forgiving, all while coping with their own situation. bessie is just a joy to listen to. she is living her dream, helping others. Lucy and i have the same passion and with our media group in south Florida, hopefully we can make a difference for many. we need more people like bessie to make this a better world. Feel free to contact me to discuss how you would like help the local needy with volunteering your time, services or donations. if you wish to sponsor/highlight a particular charity of your choice in one of city Newsboca’s best magazines, please contact Jerry spielman of city News-boca’s best media group. comments are also appreciated at jerry@citynewsmagazine.com.

think about what makes the body move and what limits cer tain movements. the pain in your back, knees, shoulders or even feeling fatigued during the day, all stem from what your body is c omprised of and how you take care of that body. if you don’t use your muscles, they deteriorate, if you don’t use your brain, it deteriorates, if you don’t exercise, cells age rapidly, bones lose densit y, pain bec omes worse, the mind loses sharpness, chronic illness develops and your qualit y of life becomes that of someone who sits in doctor of f ices time af ter time tr ying not to die from the new qualit y of life that developed over the years. the perspective of exercise c an of ten be misconstrued as something unenjoyable, dif f icult, weight bearing, or even intimidating. the good news is, there are facilities that cater to those who need guidance and motivation and make exercise fun as par t of your lifest yle. the good news is there is an available mode of exercise for ever yone. the bad news is, no one can def y science and the science proves exercise is necessar y for a longer and higher qualit y of life. Don’t wait until your golf swing loses power, or standing up bec omes dif f icult. Don’t wait until you have already fallen and balance bec omes an issue. why wait for the test results that show your body has become unable to f ight disease physically and mentally ? be younger, smar ter and stronger as you age! you may think you c an def y the aging process, or it won’t happen to you, but your body is as human as ever yone else. get the prescription that will save your life and cost less money and less time visiting doctors: e Xercise!

For those who are in their golden years, or entering that phase of life, qualit y of life is only as valuable as you make it. over 80% of americans in the baby boomer era, do not get the recommended exercise required for preventing health issues and living a longer and happier life. unfor tunately, it ’s not common for people to assess the risks of their lifest yle choices. without exercise on a regular basis, there is lit tle oppor tunit y to reverse the chronic health issues that develop, as well as the mental diseases that become prominent and lead to death. qualit y of life is your choice: time spent playing a spor t or leisurely activities, or time spent in doctor of f ices tr ying to prevent death. you c annot reverse consequences, so don’t wait until your golf swing loses power, you can’t get out of your car, you forget where c ar is even parked, you can’t get out of your seat, or you even fall for the f irst time. if not now, when?

Risk-taker Marilynn Wick revives Boca’s Caldwell theater, museum, Eatery thrive as Fifth year approaches Marilynn Wick, owner and executive managing producer at the Wick Theatre in Boca Raton. (Submitted Photo)

hen the caldwell theater went dark in spring 2013, drama-lovers in boca raton and beyond did some quick estimates and figured the odds of ever seeing performers on the stage of the venue at 7901 North Federal Highway again were grim Locked doors and a $6 million unpaid mortgage seemed to spell doom for boca’s premiere acting company. Even a fundraising production of Jesus christ, superstar, by Entr’acte theatrix in summer 2013 failed to provide the necessary money miracle.
marilynn wick, a savvy entrepreneur who owned the costume world theatrical costume rental business that stretched from nearby Pompano beach to big cities around the nation, got word of the potential hit to the performance community. she rescued the caldwell by hammering out a lease-to-purchase deal with a bank. Last year, she sealed the deal by mortgaging the place and officially taking possession. but she had to lay her cards on the table long before that. Prior to reopening in fall 2013, she gutted the building, brought shows – mainly musicals -- back to the proscenium, made room for a costume museum and built a cabaret-style restaurant with its own chef and menu. “i didn’t sit down one day and say, ‘well, i want to buy a theater,’” said the founder of costume world, by her account the largest theatrical costume provider in the nation with 1.2 million outfits. The summer of 2013 was a whirl of work, and the 2013-2014 show schedule had its nail-biting moments. but marilynn and daughter, Kimberly, costume museum curator, continued working to improve the quality of shows, stage settings, lighting and sound systems and have added all kinds of touches to please

audiences. the pair have begun booking specialty shows – and promise that more are coming. Perhaps the biggest score for the mother-daughter team was, “where runway meets broadway,” a mega-exhibit of famed costumes from their repository of sophisticated theatrical togs. “this show was more fashion than icon,” said Kimberly wick, about the exhibit that opened in september with an invitationonly luncheon and fashion show.

CONTINUED FROM PG. 10 “Sometimes I’d come home and find bags, bikes and boxes in front of my garage full of toys no longer loved, shoes, blankets, books, you name it miraculously appeared. Sometimes it isn’t just that child who was in jeopardy, their whole family needed help. It’s not a hand out, it’s a hand up.” Partially “retired” (and we use that word loosely), Bessie now works with HEART for the Broward County School Board helping to identify those kids and families in need and getting them the help to get their lives back on track. She also works with LINKS helping seniors who oftentimes go without and are overlooked AND she’s chairperson for the Coral Springs Martin Luther King Scholarship committee. When we caught up with her she was on her way to a presentation where 8 of the 17 children her committee granted scholarships to would get their “golden” ticket. “That scholarship sometimes is the leg up a child needs to stay on a successful path. To successfully educate a child means that child gets a job, pays taxes and becomes able to contribute to society. And maybe even pay it forward. Some of the money we collected this year was from former scholarship winners who went on to a successful life and choose to give back.” This is how she initially met the Spielmans from City News. “They agreed to sponsor a golf tournament,” says Bessie. “Because of their generosity, and the
advertisements in their magazines more kids and their families in need have been helped. Jerry and Lucy have been so kind, they’ve donated hundreds of T-shirts, and other items for the kids & gotten others involved.” If you have toys, books, blankets, household items
that no longer serve your family that could be given to make another family whole again, contact Bessie at 954-729-8808. To get involved with the MLK scholarship program call Joyce Campos at the City of Coral Springs 954-344-1005. While it does take a village, it clearly takes just one Miss Bessie to inspire us all.

Preparing for Baby 4 tips for choosing the right car seat (Family Features) As a parent, one of the most important decisions you will make is choosing an infant car seat. The process of purchasing and correctly installing a car seat can often feel like an overwhelming task. To help give parents that extra layer of confidence they need before baby’s first car ride home from the hospital, the safety experts at Car Seats for the Littles offer these tips for proper car seat installation and car seat use. Keep Children 2 Years and Younger Rear-Facing Babies have heavy heads and fragile necks. The neck bones are flexible and the ligaments are loose to allow for growth. When a child rides rear-facing, his or her whole body is cradled by the back of the safety seat in the event of a crash, which is why you want to keep your child rear-facing for as long as possible. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends keeping your baby rear-facing until at least 2 years old.
Ensure Correct Car Seat Installation A study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration shows that 49 percent of infant car seats are installed incorrectly. Faulty installation can result in preventable injuries, so it’s important the infant car seat is properly installed. First, ensure the car seat you purchase works in your vehicle and read the manufacturer’s instruction manual. A car seat with a simple installation process, like the Graco SnugRide SnugLock 35 DLX Infant Car Seat, can help eliminate some of the installation guesswork. The base offers hassle-free installation using either the vehicle’s seat belt or a Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH) system. In three simple steps, parents will hear an audible “click” and feel confident the car seat has been securely installed. This seat also features a four-position, one-hand adjustable recline with an easy-to-read bubble level indicator to determine the proper recline level. Find more information at gracobaby.com. Properly Position Newborns in Car Seats
no space behind him or her and that the child isn’t slouching. Additionally, check to make sure the seat is sufficiently reclined to prevent the baby’s head from falling to his or her chest and potentially blocking the airway. Test for Proper Installation and Security Before placing baby in a car seat, perform the “1-inch test.” Give the seat a firm shake at the belt path with your non-dominant hand. If the seat or base moves less than 1 inch, the installation is secure. Once baby is properly positioned in the seat, make sure the harness straps are properly tightened using the pinch test. With the chest clip placed at armpit level, pinch the strap at your child’s shoulder. If you are unable to pinch any excess webbing, your child is properly secured. One of the most cautious drives you’ll ever take is the first one home from the hospital, but with the right infant car seat, proper research and installation practice, you can feel more confident from the moment you leave the hospital and every drive after.
Be sure the newborn’s bottom is all the way back with

Morality
Give A Personal Trainer Gift Certificate For Father’s Day!
by JereMiah whyre nowadays there is a lot of talk about ethics and morality. technically, there is no difference between the two. in the dictionary, the words are used almost interchangeably. in society, however, there is a distinct difference. ethics are the rules that govern acceptable behavior. ethics are an expression of efficiency. because ethics are a set of rules that people agree to abide by, they can change with the culture of the society. Morality is concerned with right and wrong. Morality refers to a standard of behavior that is true whether anyone agrees with it or not. Morality is an absolute truth, above the opinions of humans. if morality can be redefined by humans, it isn’t morality, it’s ethics. hitler wasn’t unethical, he was immoral. he was downright wrong. what he did wasn’t unethical, it was evil. in order to have morality, you must have a god, someone (not something) that defines what is right or wrong, someone who is above human opinion, who prefers one thing to another. Morality is about conscience. to violate one’s conscience is wrong, not unethical. Most people think that conscience is what makes you feel guilty, but that is not at all correct. conscience is what makes you aware of what is right or wrong. the guilty feelings part we add on ourselves. guilt is actually self-condemnation. god doesn’t condemn us, he merely makes us aware of what is right or wrong. you will notice, i said right or wrong. it’s both. our conscience, when we learn to listen to it, will not only show us what god doesn’t want us to do, it will show us what is from him and what is not. it will show us what his will is. it will guide us and give us wisdom. www.bocasbestMagazine.coM

Functioning in a moral way isn’t merely avoiding bad things, it is pursuing good things, or, in other words, love. Love is an unsentimental dynamic that says, “i want the best for you enough to give you my best.” so Jesus identified the highest moral principle when he said, “greater love has no one than that they should lay down their life for another.” society struggles to establish an ethical standard because the rules governing that standard are human-made, and they can thereby be changed, and often are. since there is no absolute dynamic that the ethical standard comes from (unlike morality), the standard ends up being based on what is most popular. so today, people function in our society in ways that are declared ethical even though not many years ago they were considered immoral, and indeed, according to the definition of morality that comes from beyond humanity, they still are.

People very much want to abolish morality and just have ethics because ethics are so fluid and changeable. but if you abolish morality, you abolish god (which indeed, is frequently the goal). this is because, if there is no god, there is no right or wrong, merely what people decide. “you can’t force your morality on me, nor i on you. what’s wrong for you isn’t necessarily wrong for me.” if you follow that road down to its logical conclusion, you find that, if there is no morality and no god, there is no purpose for existence except to give in to one’s instincts, desires and feelings, which is the same as the rest of the animals in the animal kingdom. indeed, morality is what sets us apart from them.

(Family Features) it’s not always easy to create meals that are both nutritious and satisfying. Managing intake of added sugar and saturated fat takes effort and planning, but transforming your favorite recipes into more nutritious family meals can be simpler than you imagined. the nutrient-dense mushroom masterfully bridges that divide, offering rich and meaty flavor while still being fat-free, low-calorie and low-sodium. all mushrooms contain vitamin D at various levels, which helps build strong bones. additionally, mushrooms are a source of B vitamins, including riboflavin and niacin, which help provide energy by breaking down proteins, fats and carbohydrates. “Mushrooms are an incredibly versatile ingredient,” said Mary Jo Feeney, Ms, rDn, nutrition research consultant for the Mushroom council. “they can be the meaty star of a vegetarian dish or a nutritious complement to burgers and other hearty recipes.” For a healthy weekday lunch, consider building a salad bowl around the earthy mushroom. Pair roasted or marinated mushrooms with crunchy vegetables and nutty grains, beans and pulses, and top with a simple vinaigrette or squeeze of citrus. For lightened-up versions of classics such as burgers and meatballs, try adopting a culinary technique known as “the blend.” simply chop any mushroom variety to match the consistency of ground meat, blend the mushrooms into the meat and cook the mushroommeat blend to complete the recipe. substituting at least 25 percent of the meat for mushrooms can enhance the taste of your favorite meaty meals, deliver an extra serving of nutrient-rich vegetables and trim calorie and fat intake. For additional mushroom recipes that incorporate the blending technique, visit mushroominfo.com.

A “Super Woman”
tasia Sawyer: A real Superhero at Work By Brooke Bitton
W
hen you think of a superhero, what comes to your mind? you probably think of batman, superman, iron man, captain america, wonder woman…i could make a pretty lengthy list! in most of our minds, superheroes are those who fight the bad guys and save the world from total chaos. when i think of a superhero, i, too, often think of fictional characters that are in comic books and movies; but I also think of all the people who do great things in the world, and do not wear a cape…. they are regular people like you and me, with extraordinary talents. one such superhero is tasia sawyer, one of two graduation coaches at west boca community High school. While Tasia Sawyer may not fight bad guys, she does do something incredible. She gives teen parents, students who have jobs, or students who are struggling, the opportunity to graduate through an alternative education program. The program consists of a flexible, yet structured, schedule. Students can take classes either at a lab, or fully online at home. The classes are offered during the evening. This program, known as icE, which stands for industry Certification Within Early Graduation, is in year two at west boca community High school. the program is

JUNE 2017
modeled from Tasia’s previous school, and continues to push forward with a positive end goal in mind… giving students the opportunity to become certified in industrial roles, while also getting a traditional high school diploma. according to tasia, more schools are adopting programs that are like ICE; Alternative programs like these are “Problem solvers for academics”, she says; but it hasn’t been easy getting students and parents on board. “Parents believe that the students are not getting real diplomas”, she says. “We need to change the student-parent mindset, so they realize that there are other options that enable students to attain a high school diploma”. So far, four seniors have graduated from the program, and tasia is eager to see more succeed. Though Tasia is very motivated through her job as a graduation coach (as well as other various roles at the school), she never thought she’d have a career in education. she was an at-risk student, who was living in a shelter, in New York. “No one thought I’d graduate”, she says. “It wasn’t until college, when my professor encouraged me to pursue a career in education, because of my out-of-the-box thinking”.
qUEstioN? coNtact LUcy@bocasbEstmagaziNE.com or caLL 954-255-5226
today, tasia is a single mom with a double bachelor’s Degree, as well as a master’s Degree. she is currently working on obtaining her Ph.D… and it’s all because of the “Certain few people who pushed me”, she says. Now, tasia wants to pay it forward by being there for her students, and being “a cheerleader for them”. “School is not a one size fits all”, she says. By providing alternative education programs for students, they can stay in school, catch up, and graduate. Additional tutoring is available for students through the program. Furthermore, tutorials are set up for teachers, so that they are better able to accommodate their students. People like tasia sawyer are one in a million. though they don’t wear capes and catch bad guys, they do something else that is spectacular…they make you believe that anything is possible. So, the next time you are asked who your favorite superhero is, really take the time to think about the example of tasia sawyer. remember, there are many types of superheroes out there---teachers, policemen/ policewomen, firemen/firewomen, doctors, nurses, veterinarians, activists, family, friends---all people who make a difference in the lives of people near and far… to me, that’s pretty super! www.bocasbEstmagaziNE.com

FINANCIAL / TAX ADVICE
7 Tips to Shake Up Your Lifestyle
RobeRt Spielman, Cpa, JD
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8
(Family Features) if you’re looking for ways to bring some extra energy to your lifestyle and shake up your routine as spring rolls around, you may be surprised to find how seemingly simple changes can make a big difference. sometimes all you need is a little change in your daily routine or a small adjustment to jump-start a fresh take on life. ideas don’t have to be big to be impactful. 1. Sign up for a fitness class. When your workout regimen feels repetitive, it’s hard to stay motivated. one way to wake up your workout is to enroll in a new class, where you can learn new moves and put your muscles to work in new ways. 2. make your down time productive. your idle time may be minimal, so it’s all the more reason to fill those hours with productive activities that make you happy. if you’re looking to take on a new hobby, now’s the time to commit to your newfound passion, whether it’s understanding the ins and outs of digital photography or volunteering for a cause close to your heart. 3. improve your oral health. maintaining your overall health includes your mouth too. an option like colgate total advanced Health mouthwash can help you take charge of your oral health. this mouthwash is the first oral care product to contain dual-layer technology that combines freshening power with germ killing ingredients – simply shake to activate and see the results in the sink.

4. invest in a quality mattress. giving yourself a good night of sleep is one of the most important things you can do to improve your overall health. that’s because your sleeping hours are when your body works to repair and rejuvenate from the tolls of daily living. if your mattress is outdated or saggy, upgrade for better rest and better health. 5. Explore a new look. a fresh makeup shade or a new hairstyle can give you confidence and put you on a path toward looking as great as you feel. changes don’t have to be bold or dramatic to make a difference. simply switching up your eye shadow or lipstick can transform your look for an extra boost inside and out. 6. redecorate a room in your home. whether it’s a favorite space or a room you avoid because it needs some tLc, changing the appearance of your environment can create a place for you to feel at home, and that’s simply good for the mind and soul. create an oasis for relaxing or a more productive work space and you’ll not only see the results, you’ll feel good when you’re using the space, too. 7. make more time to socialize. breaking up your regular schedule can give you the variety you need to unplug and enjoy the lighter side of life. make plans with friends for no special reason; simply enjoy the company and unwind. adding some pep to your step doesn’t have to mean major changes. Just a few adjustments can have you breaking out of an old pattern and stepping into a healthier lifestyle with ease.
• Update your permanent address information with credit card companies, vendors and service providers • be sure your Federal and state tax returns utilize your new Florida address • Update your wills and other estate planning documents to note Florida as the state of residence • Update your passport address to the new Florida address • make sure your Florida insurance policies state Florida as your permanent residence • move any valuable property to Florida and retain UPs or moving company receipts • consider renting out your former residence during periods of non-use • terminate prior state employment or enter into a new services agreement addressing your move to Florida • Join local social and country clubs and update your status to non-resident in your former state of residence • when traveling, leave from and return to Florida, - spend the majority of your time in Florida • Political and charitable contributions and religious activities should be centered in Florida • consider acquiring a burial plot in Florida remember, a change in domicile is a subjective test. the things you do to demonstrate objectively your change in domicile will be essential in defending yourself upon audit by your prior home state. What NOT to do or Minimize Where Possible: • regular Nyc newspaper delivery • regular or continuous dry cleaning service • Do not subscribe to more than basic cable tV/internet service at your second residence • monthly train or bus passes (these do not show when the individual travelled), but could suggest presence in New york on “all” working days • Do not have a garage where you pay for monthly usage (should not claim the exemption for the 18% Nyc parking tax) • Having minor children in New york schools and/or after school programs Additional Thoughts: • try to minimize the spouse’s days in New york as those may taint the primary spouse’s days and/or lead to problems with documentation. • be aware of “through transit” to Nyc airports. stopping for meals and/or gas in the New york area while en route from e.g. connecticut to Kennedy airport will constitute a New york Day. Conclusion: This is not a “one size fits all” checklist, but rather a guide toward what records should be maintained. Every individual is different, but everyone should maintain third-party evidence to prove location. records should be obtained contemporaneously for all years and retained, generally for at least three years. it can often be difficult, expensive, and at times impossible, to obtain records for audit years ending well before the audit commences. Proper planning and document retention is essential when planning your tax move to Florida. This article provides generalized tax and financial information for educational purposes only.

HEALTH & WELLNESS Boca Dental Arts Dr. Axel McGuffie, DMD, fAGD
fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry
A Crown is a Crown is a Crown ...? NO! aren’t all crowns the same? what difference does it make what a crown is made of? that’s a very good question! since the 1950’s, dentists have used Porcelain Fused to Metal (PFM) and full gold crowns. For the times, being able to crown a front tooth with a PFM and have it look like a tooth was a big deal. the gold crowns were used for the back teeth, as those crowns had been reliable and durable for chewing. Fast forward to modern dentistry and we have a multitude of choices. i will discuss the differences between PFM, gold and zirconia crowns. strength and durability can be very important, especially on back teeth. gold crowns are the standard but they don’t look like teeth and gold is an added expense. on the other-hand PFM crowns have a thin layer of porcelain on a metal substructure. the thin porcelain layer can chip or fracture which is the most common reason for PFM crown failure. zirconia crowns are extremely strong, as this type of material is not prone to chipping or fracturing.

cosmetics are becoming more and more important to patients. Most patients don’t want gold crowns, they prefer crowns to look like their natural teeth. although PFM crowns can be made to look pretty good, they cannot match zirconia crowns for a truly tooth mimicking appearance. with PFM crowns, it is not uncommon, especially in cases of recession, to see a grey line at the gum line. the metal substrate of the crown gives a grey shadow. zirconia being tooth colored through and through eliminates this problem. to place a crown on a tooth requires the removal of some tooth structure to make room for the thickness of the crown. the amount of tooth structure removal required for a PFM crown is greater than for a zirconia or gold crown. the thickness of the metal substructure and a thick enough porcelain layer needs to be accounted for. this means much less tooth structure needs to be removed for a zirconia crown. Less tooth structure removal means less trauma to the nerve of the tooth, making it less likely that a root canal will be needed. How compatible with the body a material is can be a big concern for some patients. PFM crowns have a metal substructure that can sometimes contain metals such as nickel, silver, beryllium, gold, palladium and others. some of these metals can cause allergic reactions in some patients. the conduction of electrons from metal to metal can also increase tooth sensitivity. zirconia on the other hand has no metal, it is an inert material, and it has been shown to be extremely bio-compatible. Full zirconia crowns are my restoration of choice. strength, cosmetics, biocompatibility, and conservation of tooth structure all combine to make for a great dental material. there are many other materials out there and all have advantages and disadvantages to their use. a frank discussion with the dentist is needed for the patient to make an informed decision for the specific situation. That’s the TOOTH and nothing but the tootH!

Protect Your Pets from Summer Pests
DORA
(Family Features) As the weather warms up, many people like to take their dogs for long walks or let their cats frolic outside. While you’re having fun in the sun, however, pests like fleas, ticks and mosquitoes can tag along for the ride.
Fleas, ticks and mosquitoes all draw blood from their hosts at some point in their lifecycle, and Beavers said spotting the adults is the easiest way to tell if your pet has been affected.
21287 Boca Rio Rd Boca Raton, FL 33433
Beavers advises taking these steps at home to reduce the number of fleas, ticks and mosquitoes on your property:
• Remove unkempt grass and weeds, prune bushes and generally maintain your yard to reduce the number of ticks, mosquitoes and fleas on vegetation. Keep leaf litter to a minimum, as pests like to live in this damp, protected shelter.
• Ticks: Ticks crawl about on vegetation, waiting for potential hosts – like pets – to walk by. They attach themselves to a host for days at a time, and most swell up as they feed. Ticks can transmit diseases like Lyme disease, which in rare cases can result in kidney failure for dogs, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, which is seen in dogs and sometimes in cats. Beavers said that the disease pathogens are often transmitted within the first 24 hours, so it’s best to remove the tick quickly. Check your pets for ticks daily, especially after they spend time outdoors.
• Keep raccoons, opossums, deer and rodents off your property, as these animals can carry ticks and fleas.

• Adult fleas like humidity and shade, so eliminate shaded areas around your home.
• Fleas: Usually, adult fleas are easy to see when they jump on you or your pet, or when you see them crawling along on your pet’s skin. Beavers said that if your pet is being bitten by fleas, they will often repeatedly scratch and groom themselves.
• Mosquitoes: Just like people, pets can fall victim to mosquitoes. Mosquito bites on pets aren’t always obvious. However, some mosquitoes can transmit potentially fatal heartworm disease. While it may be tempting, do not use human mosquito repellents on your pet. You may see mosquitoes flying around or landing on your pet when it’s hot outside, so be on the lookout.

Ease Up on Energy Consumption
Home upgrades that reduce energy reliance Windows
Faulty seals and cracks are responsible for as much as 20 percent of air infiltration into or out of the home, according to U.S. Department of Energy data. windows are a major culprit for these types of leaks. If a complete window replacement is out of your budget, there are still numerous ways you can improve the energy efficiency of existing windows. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that adding storm windows can reduce the amount of heat lost through windows by as much as 25-50 percent. caulking and adding weather stripping around windows can also make a noticeable difference, as can window coverings such as blinds or drapes that minimize the transfer of heat and cold through window panes. If you add new windows, there are several variables to consider. Generally, the goal is to optimize heat gain during colder months and reduce heat gain in the summer. Energy performance ratings can help you understand how particular windows transfer heat and light so you can make the best choices for your home’s location, including the climate and orientation to the sun.
Doors
Like windows, doors, and especially their perimeters, are a common source of lost energy. Poor insulation due to faulty installation or simply wear over time can contribute to energy loss. Aside from ensuring a properly installed, insulated and sealed doorway, the door itself can also make a difference when it comes to energy efficiency. For example, foam insulated entry doors offer greater energy conservation than wooden alternatives. also remember that proper sealing and installation applies to all access points, including garage doors. For doors with large glass panes, such as patio doors, look for options that include a thermal break and multiple layers of glass to reduce energy transfer.

An often overlooked home element, but one homeowners and interior designers are increasingly turning attention to, is the ceiling, affectionately dubbed the “fifth wall.” Not only does this surface offer a blank slate for introducing new style to a room, it’s also an ideal space to integrate energy-efficient features such as skylights. “skylights bring much more than natural light into a space. they give occupants the feeling of being outdoors with elements like a sky view, gentle breezes and the smell of fresh air,” said Ross Vandermark, national product manager for Velux America. Skylights engage all of the senses while providing balanced, natural light that reduces reliance on powered light and ventilation fixtures. In addition, skylights can work in concert with vertical windows to create the “chimney effect” where cool, fresh air enters through vertical windows and warm, stale air escapes from the skylights, cooling your home without using electricity. Some models like the Velux No Leak Solar Powered Fresh Air skylights, which along with installation costs are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit, are powered by solar energy, making them even more efficient. Additional features can further enhance the energy-saving benefits of installing skylights. For example, for added flare and light control, homeowners can add blinds to skylights, choosing from more than 100 colors and styles. Many models also offer remote control operation for convenience in raising and lowering the blinds and even opening skylights to let in fresh air. Learn more about making the fifth wall part of your energy-saving plan at whyskylights.com.
