MOVING FORWARD Last month, I strolled into a mixer hosted by the Greater Fort Lauderdale Alliance. It was one of the Alliance’s “Connect” events, held on the beautiful patio at Gallery One, the all-suite Doubletree hotel along the Intracoastal. The event focused on artwork, with artists actually painting while Broward business’s elite mingled and chatted about business, family and the Miami Heat. And while I met executives ranging from manufacturing to home entertainment systems, I noticed something fascinating… The conversation usually turned to the law at some point. Certainly there were different aspects of law. One person was chatting with me about an employee who left to work for his competitor. While his employee had signed a non-compete agreement for two years, he struggled with whether or not he should take her to court. Another person was explaining to me how he shared a new internet concept with a friend – and then the friend beat him to market. The law has always fascinated me. During my days as Publisher of the South Florida Business Journal, I heard the most fantastic stories from my friends who were lawyers. Sadly, the newspaper industry is declining. At the same time, local, targeted magazines are thriving. According to recent third party research, Lifestyle Magazines now enjoys almost 200,000 readers in Broward County alone. Guess what – 70 percent of these readers are in top management. Lifestyle’s mission is to tell the stories that we all talk about while dining with close friends. What do we talk about? Money issues, business, family, vacations, our favorite restaurants and our kids. And that’s what we write about in the pages of our publications. Another important goal at Lifestyle is to connect the community we love together. That’s one of the reasons why Lifestyle Media Group has created the Leaders in Law Awards. This fall, we’re going to honor the best South Florida lawyers in more than a dozen categories, both
MAY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM
at a ceremony at Nova Southeastern University and within the pages of our magazines. It’s our opportunity to applaud the best lawyers in categories ranging from insurance to entertainment, corporate to government, taxes to real estate. We’ll also honor the law firms who do the most for the community. For more details, visit lmgfl.com/ awards or email our chief marketing officer Dawn Rahicki at dawn@ lifestylemagazinegroup.com. The Leaders in Law Awards are just one of the many exciting events we have planned for later this year and beyond. We’ve decided, as a company, that we need to do more than just cover the county and South Florida. We need to be a part of it. Last month we began our CEO Connect concept at Grill 401. This program features a live one on one interview with our area’s most fascinating people. Of course there was great food and drinks – and great conversations. I’d like to give a special thank you to noted developer Terry Stiles for being my first interview. We spanned Terry’s life and found out how he built Stiles into one of the largest real estate companies in the nation. Future events will also feature live
interviews with some of the most interesting and influential movers and shakers of our community. On the editorial front, we’re expanding our travel and food sections, adding a real estate section, and diving deeper into the business trends that are influencing – or about to influence – South Florida. And this summer, inspired by the Alliance’s Connect event at Gallery One, we’re going to feature the best artists in Broward County – and show you how businesses are embracing art not only for its aesthetic value, but for its investment value and how that affects their bottom lines. In this issue, I hope you’ll peruse our cover story, which combines Mother’s Day with National Pet Month and features wonder women who raise children and save pets. And for lighter fare, did you know Broward County is home to a halfdozen breweries – one of them awardwinning. We welcome you to take the long walk with us as we embrace and honor our community together.t.

Quick on the draw MIAMI FASHION STYLIST RACHAEL RUSSELL AT PEEL IT OFF TO GIVE IT BACK ON LAS OLAS
The clothes off your back The average U.S. household discards around 700 pieces of clothing and textiles annually, so there’s now a nationwide clothing movement called PEEL IT OFF TO GIVE BACK, which collects “gently worn” clothing for those in need. The program made a stop at Las Olas Fine Arts on March 29, and more than 100 people packed the gallery for a “Sip & Swap” clothing donation event – which are also happening in Dallas and Chicago. Attendees donated their gently worn clothing and swapped it for something “new to you,” all while enjoying wines from event co-sponsor The Naked Grape, a winery offering eight varietals. All the remaining clothes were donated to Clothes4Souls, a global anti-poverty nonprofit organization. For details, visit clothes4souls.org.

Heard of Sierra Nevada? Sam Adams? Forget about those craft-beers-turned-nationwidephenoms â&#x20AC;&#x201C; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been beat out by a Broward brewery.
On most mornings, Matt Cox is alone at the Big Bear Brewing Company in Coral Springs, cleaning his brew kettle. He actually crawls inside the 10-foot vessel and hand-scrubs the surfaces. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everything in good brewing practices starts with clean equipment,â&#x20AC;? says Cox, brewmaster of the 15-year-old microbrewery on a stretch of University Drive between a SunTrust bank and a *APANESE RESTAURANT h"ACTERIAL CONTAMINATION IS OUR BIGGEST ENEMY in brewing. When a beer goes into any vessel or container, it needs to be clean and sanitized â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from the biggest tank, to the smallest bottle.â&#x20AC;? Coxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cleanliness obsession has its rewards. Last September, Big Bearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Polar Light took a gold medal at the United States Open Beer Championship in Atlanta, a national contest featuring more than 1,650 American brews in 65 categories. And Big Bearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Paw Print IPA was declared Grand Champion IPA at the United States Beer Tasting Championship in Manchester, New Hampshire, just last September.

If you’ve ever bought a craft beer, you know it’s pricier than your average Budweiser. Here’s why: it’s hard work. Unlike other state-of-the-art modern breweries, Big Bear has no computer touch screens to regulate the water temperature or mix the malt. “All the labor during the brewing process is done by hand,” Cox says. “There are no motors to mix the mash, for instance. The dry weight of the mash can be up to 1,000 pounds, which I then combine with water and mix with a hand paddle. The mixture becomes much heavier as it blends. All the malt has to then be removed manually when the process is finished.” One small mistake in the milling process, water purification, or in the accuracy of time and temperature could ruin a whole batch – equal to 20 kegs of beer. Cox has to run the different varieties of malt through a mill to gently crush it. The malt is then measured to the thousandth of an inch to create the desired flavor and body of the brew. The water Cox uses to mix with the malt goes through a water-purification process that strips contaminants out of the Broward tap water. He then rebuilds the water using calcium and magnesium – each brew has its own specific type of water. After 20 hours of labor, Cox has his 20 kegs’ worth of beer – but he doesn’t keep them in kegs. Instead, he stores the liquid in a half-dozen 8-foot-tall “serving vessels.” And directly from there is where customers at the Big Bear Brewery taste their purchases. Even the tubes the beer travels through are handpicked by Cox. They measure a quarter-inch in diameter compared to the normal half- to three-eighths inches, which leaves less beer sitting in the tubes when they are not in use – because beer sitting in the lines usually becomes stale. The tubes are also made of a nonporous material so they won’t collect dirt or bacteria, which could alter the taste of the beer. Cost: 45 cents a foot compared to 20 cents a foot. “Our process makes a difference when you compare taste and quality to the supermarket-type beers that people buy or drink at bars,” Cox says. “We keep the beer in a natural and pure state. We don’t pasteurize, use any chemical shelf-life extenders or flavor enhancers. Some beers we lightly filter, some are left completely unfiltered.” If this intrigues your taste buds, there’s only one problem: you can’t buy Big Bear beer anywhere but in Coral Springs. “Our beers are only sold on premise, so we can ensure they are always kept at optimal temperatures,” Cox says. “They also sell very fast, so we don’t have to worry about them getting old or losing flavor. That separates us and some other local brew pubs from all other beer products.”

It has notes of chocolate and coffee. Special Golden Ale – Belgian-style brew, unfiltered with a hint of ginger, fennel, and slight honey sweetness. Dry and refreshing with fruity aromas.

The Eleven Brown Ale – Hints of caramel and roasted nuts compliment a slight hop bitterness, which balances the sweetness and ends with a nice clean finish. Thunderhead Red – A classic American amber ale that balances the smooth caramel flavor of Maris Otter malt with a light hop bitterness and aroma.

Taking a flier: Susan Kramer, Coral Springs BY RYAN CORTES Four dogs have lived in Susan Kramer’s Coral Springs home since last September, and they all were deemed “at-risk” when she got them. Last September, Kramer got a flier in the mail about an ambassador program at the Broward Humane Society. She was intrigued. The program takes dogs that were surrendered by their owners but can’t adjust to life at the Humane Society shelter. “They get in the shelter and they just freak out,” explains Kramer. So Kramer and her family take in the dog – with toys, collars, leashes, and crates provided by the Humane Society – until another family adopts it. “The best part of all,” Kramer says, “is providing a home for the dog so it can blossom and become itself again – and become more desirable for adoption.” The stay-at-home mom enjoys the program because she has three kids either in college or about to leave for college. Keeping dogs for months at a time makes sense, she says, because after all of her kids move out, she may move. Kramer does admit, though, that she couldn’t volunteer in the program without the help of her 24-year-old Charles (who recently graduated from the University of Florida), 19-year-old *OHN WHO GOES TO "ROWARD #OLLEGE and 18-year-old daughter Emily (who will attend FAU in the fall). “I love the whole notion of giving back,” Kramer says. “And I feel I was very blessed to be able to stay at home and raise my kids all these years.” Adds Linda Sanders, who runs the
Broward Humane Society 2070 Griffin Road Fort Lauderdale humanebroward.com The Broward Humane Society has hundreds of volunteers on average, but they’re looking for more. According to Colette Saucier, the director of volunteer services, most people wouldn’t believe that.
Adoption Ambassador Program at the Humane Society: “The dogs she has taken into her home were not easy dogs. They all required love, time, attention, and extensive training to make them more adoptable dogs. She has learned about dog behavior and training and is literally transforming these dogs, giving them the second chance that they all deserve.” Kramer dedicated nearly the last 20 years of her life to raising her kids, although now she’s a volunteer usher at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts in addition to helping the Humane Society. She’s been married for 27 years and although she doesn’t know her Mother’s Day plans this year, she spent the last one at the Carolina Country Club in Margate. Her kids showered her with flowers.
“We’re very lucky here – we maintain an average of 475 volunteers – but what I think what people might misunderstand is that they see we have so many volunteers and they think we don’t need any more,” she explains. “But we need volunteer service a lot during the week, and even if you only have three hours a week, we’d love for them to come help us take care of the cats and dogs.” The Humane Society says it takes in about 300-400 animals per week, so much is included when adopting a pet. Puppies cost $135 to adopt and dogs cost $100, but each animal is spayed or neutered, has treatment for fleas and ticks, is micro-chipped, and comes with a free bag of Purina dog food. Kittens cost $50 while cats are $25, but they also come micro-chipped and with the same amenities the dogs do.

Always rescuing: Nicole Melamed, Parkland BY RYAN CORTES
My Animals Rock myanimalsrock.org My Animals Rock doesn’t have a building where you can find its dogs – and it doesn’t have a team of volunteers. It’s run by one woman, Kathy Cremer, and she finds almost all of her dogs near one place. The Everglades. Cremer started My Animals Rock in 2009 after spending many hours volunteering at the now-defunct Pet Rescue Miami. After finding abandoned dogs near the Everglades, she blitzes social media, dog websites (like petfinder.com), and dog shelters looking for someone to adopt the pets. .ICOLE -ELAMED WAS AT A "* S 7HOLESALE #LUB LAST *ULY WITH HER husband Rob when they saw a dog bolting through the parking lot. “We stopped the car and we got out – and she jumped in,” Melamed says. “She was very friendly and that’s how it all started.” The Parkland mother of three already had one dog — a 4-year-old golden retriever named Basha — and didn’t want to take on another with her son’s Bar Mitzvah upcoming. So she partnered up with a rescue organization called My Animals Rock, and within a month, the pitbull/boxer mix with “a face only a mother could love” had a permanent home. It was nothing new for Melamed. “We’re always rescuing something,” she says. “My son and I rescued an injured bird in the parking lot of our orthodontist. We had two baby bunnies in my pool last year — one drowned, the other one we rescued. We’ve always
been animal people.” &OR HER SON *OSHUA S "AR -ITZVAH last October, he dedicated his personal project to helping animals and raised $600 and 1,000 pounds of dog food for My Animals Rock. That was when the family — which also includes Melamed’s two daughters, 9-year-old Liza and 11-year-old Olivia — decided they were ready for another dog. They adopted an all-black terrier mix named Polly from My Animals Rock. “When we first took her, she was terrified,” Melamed says. “She hid under the coffee table for a week. But she’s the happiest, most loving puppy now that she’s adjusted.” Melamed lives at Heron Bay in Parkland and after being married for 16 years, she says she wasn’t sure when Mother’s Day was or what plans she had for it. “But,” she says, “I know my husband will come up with something.”
Sometimes the process takes a while, because of the condition of the dog. “They always come off the street really in bad shape, with heartworms and broken hips and legs because they’ve been hit by cars near the Everglades,” she says. There’s a $150 adoption fee, but Cremer says it’s a small price to pay. She estimates that every dog rescued has $400 spent on it before it’s adopted – and often more, if the dog needs surgery. Cremer is also particular about who adopts the dogs. She has potential customers complete an application, checks their vet references to see about their previous animals, and she insists on a home visit with the dog before an official adoption, just to make sure the house (and fence) is suitable. “I’m very, very strict,” she says. “These animals have been through hell, so we want to make sure they’re definitely going to a forever home.”

At Northwestern Mutual, We take our community involvement seriously...
And it feels like this...
On March 29th Northwestern Mutual - The South Florida Group lit up Joe DiMaggio Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital with smiles! Over 200 Children fighting childhood cancer and other diseases were given a green Cheeriodicals box. Each box was assembled by our team with age appropriate toys, games, snacks, magazines, and a special card. (Cheerful + Periodicals = Cherriodicals!)
We invite you to join our team and be part of the action!
"Happiness can heal - it accelerates a family's fight against childhood cancer and other diseases so we're thrilled to partner with Cheeriodicals to bring joy to Fort Lauderdale families," said Kevin Lawhon, Managing Partner, Northwestern Mutual - The South Florida Group. "As a father of three daughters, I can tell you a sick child is something that can make your heart ache, but I can't imagine the emotional toll that cancer and other diseases can have on a family. Our goal was to strengthen families by alleviating some of the stress accompanying their experience - and give them a little bit of fun."

However, call their customer service line, or apply for a loan, and you could be dealing with people many states away. Community Bank of Broward is the only bank with headquarters in Weston, and one of the largest commercial banks headquartered in Broward County. Many of our officers and staff live right here in Coral Springs. We truly care about your neighborhood. After all, it’s our neighborhood too. Stop by your local branch today. We’re ready to show you how great hometown banking can be.

100 Years of Fighting Cancer One hundred years ago, the American Cancer Society and the American people started the fight of a lifetime. One hundred years ago, the word “cancer” was not spoken, and almost everyone who was diagnosed with cancer died. After all the research and discoveries and new treatments, the survival rates have changed for the better. Today, the goal is to change the statistics from two out of every three people surviving cancer for at least five years to three out of three surviving…period! The American Cancer Society is a global grassroots organization with more than three million volunteers saving lives and fighting for every birthday for every person battling cancer in every community. To date, there has been a 20 percent decline in cancer death rates in the U.S. since 1991, and a 50 percent drop in smoking rates. On Saturday, May 11, the American Cancer Society invites you to become a part of the solution by supporting the American Cancer Society’s 100th Birthday Ball honoring AutoNation Chairman AND #%/ -IKE *ACKSON CANCER SURVIVOR ,YNNE Curry, and hear a special testimonial from a newly engaged 22-year-old who has been battling brain cancer since he was three years old. The event is being held at the Hyatt Regency Pier 66 with entertainment by The Steve Chase Band and an exciting silent auction that includes vacation trips, jewelry, spa days, and more! The Honorary Chairs of the 100th Birthday Ball are Wayne and Marti Huizenga. The co-chairs are two entrepreneurs: Keith Koenig, co-founder along with his brother Kevin, of City Furniture; and Terry

The Business of Taking Care
*OHN #ATANZARO HAS WORKED IN PHYSICAL therapy since 1996. Over time, he’s become more concerned about the dwindling quality of healthcare he sees. “One of my patients died. Their caregiver let them fall three times, and the third time they broke their hip and died,” says Catanzaro, 51. “I heard that and came home to my wife and said, ‘This is never going to happen again on my shift.’” His “shift” started last September when he AND HIS WIFE *UDY FOUNDED ST &AMILY (OME Care. It’s a nurse registry based in Coral Springs, which is also where the couple lives. “My model is that we treat every client as if they’re literally part of our family,” Catanzaro says. “All our caregivers are good enough that I would refer them for my own family.” As of February, the company had signed up more than 80 caregivers, each with their own liability insurance and up-to-date CPR certification and credentials. They take longterm insurance and out-of-pocket payment and can refer somebody inside 24 hours. Catanzaro and his wife also personally screen every caregiver with an extensive interview

and an FBI background check. “I want to know how long they’ve been in the industry, if they have 15, 20, 30 years of experience, and I want to know their thoughts and beliefs on care for their clients, and make sure they don’t have any negativity toward their patients,” Catanzaro says. He also interviews clients: How many hours a week do you need us? How often and what type of medications do you take? What kind of food do you like? Caregivers can provide a wide variety of services, including helping with bathing, dressing, and grooming; cooking and light housekeeping; taking them shopping, to doctor’s appointments, and social events; assisting with medicine and getting in and out of bed or anywhere else people are likely to slip and fall. The company can also make referrals for other services, including social workers, speech therapists, and physicians. Meanwhile, Catanzaro works to keep family members and professionals up to date, and he encourages caregivers and clients to maintain as much independence and comfort as possible. “I encourage them to not just be a caretaker, but encourage their patient to get dressed and get in and out of bed in the appropriate way, and cooking their own meals might be a challenge but doing what they can,” says Catanzaro. “I have them doing walking and light exercise, because I don’t want clients to be sitting around doing nothing.”
Serving up yourself Here are the problems John Catanzaro says to think about when making a care decision... Mobility: “The first thing I look for, safety is paramount. If they’re having difficulties at home, like falling, getting in and out of bed or the bathroom.” Errands: “They need to go to appointments, shopping and whatnot, and they don’t drive.” Eating: “What if they forgot to turn off the oven, and the next thing you know there’s a big fire? A lot of geriatrics don’t eat or drink enough. Nutrition is a must.” Loneliness: “Even playing cards, some kind of social interaction important. Other than the children, they often don’t talk to anybody.” Quality of life: “Taking them to restaurants, and going out to the movies or the beach – quality of life is something we all care about.”

S SILVER LINING CATERING 2059 Blount Road
Pompano Beach (954) 917-1020 ext. 314 Silverliningcatering.com Hollywood@silverliningcatering.com
TAKING OFF
What started as meals in the air has grown into a groundbreaking event company Mitch Amsterdam and Mike Linder, pioneeers of the private jet catering industry, began their round-the-clock business in 2001 with Silver Lining InFlight Catering. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 24 hours a day, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never closed in 12 years,â&#x20AC;? Linder says. The two lifelong friends have set the standard for aviation concierge services, providing a ďŹ rst class experience for worldwide jet travel out of South Florida (servicing all private airports from Orlando to Miami). Five years ago, the duo was looking for a new venture and opened one OF 3OUTH &LORIDA S MOST UNIQUE RESTAURANT VENUES *ET 2UNWAY #AFĂ? SEE box), located on the tarmac at FXE Airport in Fort Lauderdale. The cafĂŠ has earned rave reviews as the lines out the door can attest. Now theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve moved on to their most ambitious challenge yet â&#x20AC;&#x201C; becoming South Floridaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most exquisite catering and special events company.

MAY 2013 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM
This means creating uniquely designed events ranging from intimate weddings (see box) to lavish galas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really nothing out of the ordinary thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thrown us off in 12 years,â&#x20AC;? Linder says proudly. The reason might be Silver Liningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s size: 150 team members and two 20,000 square foot kitchens located in Pompano Beach and Palm Beach and a venue that can hold a jetliner â&#x20AC;&#x201C; because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s indeed an airplane hangar. That may be why Silver Lining has hosted Fortune 500 CEOs, Saudi ROYALTY CELEBRITIES AND MUSICIANS "UT #ATERING AND %VENTS $IRECTOR *OHN â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hollywoodâ&#x20AC;? Abresch has another explanation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fact that we service the private jet industry makes us able to handle anything. The industry is so speciďŹ c to demanding needs that if you can handle the clientele, you can handle anything and everything.â&#x20AC;?
Everything under one roof “When I sit down and talk to someone about what we do, they think we do the CATERING FROM *ET 2UNWAY Café,”Amsterdam says. “They don’t understand we have a completely separate catering company that provides food, lighting, décor, floral, and entertainment.” Another unique aspect of Silver Lining Catering is THEIR VENUES INCLUDING *ET Runway Café, the tarmac on the runway, and the airplane hangar, which serves as a blank canvas for even the most creative of minds. They can handle events for hundreds of people and even thousands. For example, a recent MS Gala seated 1,200 and featured a runway fashion show, luncheon, and silent auction, all produced in house by the Silver Lining Team. Karen Dresbach, President of the MS Society OF 3OUTH &LORIDA ADDS h-ITCH *OHN AND THE ENTIRE team at Silver Lining went above and beyond with every detail to insure the event was a huge success. We could not have been more pleased.” “We are very into helping out the community,”
5540 NW 21st Terrace Fort Lauderdale jetrunwaycafe.com (954) 958-9900
Linder says. And the community has responded. The American Heart Association, Cameras for Kids Foundation, MS, Charity Guild, Deliver the Dream, and the Danielle Demarzo Foundation have all partnered with Silver Lining Catering over the past year to create some of the most illustrious and memorable galas and fundraisers. “The events are definitely first class and the attention to detail is like nothing we have ever seen before,” remarks Maria Hunt, The American Heart Assocation’s senior development director. “The AHA has used Silver Lining for several events, ranging from a young professionals event called Pulse to a Moulin Rouge party. Both had the wow factor.” Betsey Chesler, founder of the Cameras for Kids Foundation, has also relied on Silver Lining for several events. “You expect things to go wrong at a big event,” Chesler says. “But with Silver Lining, it’s just the opposite. I realized I could let them handle everything. They never cease to amaze.”
Jet Runway Cafe: really taking off The words “airport food” don’t often cause mouths to water. And who goes to an airport to eat when they don’t have somewhere to fly? But Jet Runway Café is a destination unto itself. The breakfast and lunch restaurant at the Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport has been called “one of the best lunch spots” in Fort Lauderdale by the Sun Sentinel and a “hidden gem” by New Times. Jet Runway Café has earned stellar reviews from sites like Yelp and Urban Spoon. “It’s one of those few South Florida restaurants where it’s hip to be seen,” co-owner Mitch Amsterdam says. “It’s right on the tarmac, the only one that’s directly on the runway. Private jets and helicopters pull right up, where both passengers and pilots come in to eat.” And some of those meals are as unique as the location, such as the turkey pretzel roll and the picnic basket sandwich consisting of BBQ pulled pork, pepper jack cheese, mac-n-cheese, and crispy onion strings on country white bread. While the restaurant isn’t open for dinner, it is available for private functions, much like its next door airplane hangar.
Weddings: plane, not plain When Mike Kontos got married in February, the easiest decision for him and his bride was “Who’s the caterer?” Silver Lining was Kontos’s only choice for the wedding. A pilot for a private jet company, Kontos has been eating Silver Lining InFlight Catering for years. It services the company he flies for, just as it has for pretty much every private flight departing from South Florida. Co-owner Mike Linder and Catering and Events Director John Abresh took the basic idea that Kontos had – to get married under the nose of a plane and hold the wedding reception in a hangar. They took it to epic proportions… The ceremony was held under the nose of a DC-3, the cocktail party was on the tarmac and the reception moved inside the airplane hangar. A four-course meal was served family style on a long table running down the center of the hangar. Kontos says, “I would definitely recommend them to anybody down here. Everything we wanted, they made happen.” It was the wedding he and his wife always dreamed of.

A NEW STATE-OF-THE-ART TREATMENT IS NOW AVALABLE FOR TOENAIL FUNGUS DR. ERIC WEINSTEIN, D.P.M. :HVWRQ 1 &RPPHUFH 3NZ\ 6XLWH :HVWRQ &RUDO 6SULQJV &RUDO 5LGJH 'U &RUDO 6SULQJV
Dr Weinstein is the ďŹ rst physician in South Florida and one of the first in the country to utilize the PinPointe Foot Laser. Over the past 4 years he has performed over 2000 procedures. This FDA approved technology kills the pathogens that cause toenail fungus (Onychomycosis) The gentle laser light works through the nail. s Safe. s No side effects. s Does not harm the nail or skin. s Painless-no anesthesia needed. s Shoes can be worn immediately after treatment. A fungus infection of the toenail, also known as onychomycosis, is one of the most common dermatologic disorders affecting the foot. The disease is characterized by a thickening of the toenail plate, debris under the toenail, a lifting of the leading edge of the nail, a change in nail color and occasionally an odor. Patients complain that toenail fungus is ugly and embarrassing. This condition is often ignored because the infection can be present for years without causing any pain.

Contributing factors for developing nail fungus infection include: s A history of athleteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foot s Injury to the nail bed s Sports/ shoe trauma s Excessive perspiration s Diabetes s Circulatory problems s Immune-deďŹ ciency conditions Treatments for Fungal Nails Historically, treatments for fungal nails included topical medications, oral agents (pills) or surgical removal of the nail plate. The topical medications were largely ineffective. Oral agents have been known to have possible side affects involving the liver, stomach upset, rashes and temporary loss of taste. Blood tests are needed to monitor the liver enzymes. Removal of the nail plate was painful and debilitating. HOW DOES THE LASER WORK? This patented laser is specially designed to penetrate through your toenail and destroy the specific pathogens embedded in and under your nail causing the infection. IS THIS LASER PAINFUL? The gentle laser light beam has no effect on healthy tissue. There is no discomfort associated
with the treatment during or after. This treatment does not harm or affect your activity in any way. Some patients may experience the sensation of warmth. IS THIS TREATMENT SAFE? There are no age or health restrictions or limit ations. Worldwide over 150,000 PinPointe procedures have been performed with no adverse reactions, injuries, disabilities or known side effects. As you may know, the use of the oral medication available today for treatment of fungus toenails, carries with it possible systemic involvement (commonly the liver and kidney). This laser does not! Dr Weinstein has offices in Weston and Coral Springs and has been in practice for 30 years. He is Board CertiďŹ ed by The American Board of Podiatric Medicine. He has lectured nationally about the PinPointe Foot Laser. He has appeared on Fox, ABC, and NBC local news regarding the PinPointe Foot Laser.

PUBLIC RELATIONS BECOMING MORE ABOUT YOU AND LESS ABOUT THE MEDIA JULIE TALENFELD
President, Boardroom Communications
1 3LQH ,VODQG 5RDG Suite 320 Fort Lauderdale, FL 33322 www.BoardroomPR.com Public relations is taking on a bigger role in making companies successful. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing a bigger role, too. If you think about how you avoid business messages, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to see why. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to watch TV ads? Zip by them on your DVR. Want to hide â&#x20AC;&#x153;sponsored contentâ&#x20AC;? on your Facebook page? Click the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Xâ&#x20AC;? box in the upper-right-hand corner. Tired of listening to ads on your car radio? Plug in your iPod. Because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become so easy to tune out advertising, selling has become less about getting people to buy something and more about getting their attention. Marketing and public relations also generate awareness, and with more companies combining traditional media â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like a magazine â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with online media, the lines among the three have blurred. Not that long ago, public relations was about getting a clientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name in the newspaper, on TV or in a magazine. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still part of the job, but a smaller part as the number of media outlets shrink. Now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about getting people to share information about a company or

an individual. For a local restaurant, that can mean getting the word out through Facebook posts. When it works, that restaurant can have people lined up around the building on the ďŹ rst day of business and win a local TV stationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;best restaurantâ&#x20AC;? poll. (True story.) What does that mean for your business? Should you dump your advertising and put all your money behind public relations? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like that if it you were hiring me. Seriously, you should look more at your message than where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re spending your money. Lifestyle Magazine is a great way to raise awareness and engage audiences, especially if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for sophisticated readers. But what are you telling them? If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Buy! Buy! Buy!â&#x20AC;? readers are likely to ďŹ&#x201A;ip the page. If you share information or tell a story, you can capture their attention. And if readers like what they
see, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to tell their friends. And those friends will tell their friends. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the game today: engaging people. Think about the most effective Super Bowl ads this year. The top ad was Budweiserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Brotherhood,â&#x20AC;? about a man who raises a Clydesdale to adulthood and is reunited with the horse three years later. Second place: American Dairy Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Morning Runâ&#x20AC;? about The Rock forsaking his hero role because he has a more important job: getting fresh milk for his kids. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what public relations is about: giving people a good story that they want to share with others. Sometimes those people are reporters. More and more often, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re people like you.

lifestyle advice
WHEN TO PLAN TO SELL YOUR BUSINESS? NOW AND ALWAYS! Most people have a will. Your business needs one too, in the form of an exit plan. Most business owners will not sell voluntarily. Why? Selling a business is not the best way to make money from it. Most small businesses sell for 1-3 times adjusted earnings (larger ones can sell for more). So, if you are planning to stay working in your business for a longer than a few years, it pays to keep it. However, there are factors that can get in the way of your business “status quo”, and you need to have a plan to sell it. What do we typically see happen? s The business owner can no longer physically work. Death or disability will force a sale. If this happens, time is of the essence! The businesses’ value can evaporate daily! s The owner hates working in the business. Burn out is real and life is too short to be miserable. Understand you can simply sell and buy something else! s The business has unsolvable cash flow issues. Either it is a victim of its own success, and grows too quickly, or more often, gets into trouble monetarily. Time to sell in either case. s The business has grown beyond the owner’s capabilities. Many entrepreneurs are not good corporate CEO’s. Many times the founder is not the person who makes a business a huge success. s Outside economic or competitive forces change the industry, and your business is in danger or, there is huge opportunity. Either way you see the writing on the wall, and it is time to sell!
s A strategic buyer comes along and will pay the owner above a fair market value price. It may be time to cash in, rather than compete. Your proverbial ship has come in! Many times, there are combinations of reasons why the time to sell will come…and often it comes suddenly. What should you do in order to plan? 1. Formulate a plan. Write it down. Tell people where it is. 2. Have your specific wishes known by your family, senior staff, and advisors. Who is in charge? Should they sell immediately? Who should they listen to for advice? 3. Give someone power of attorney or have someone able to sign for your company in your absence or disability. 4. Get insurance! Have a Life & Disability policy! A buy-sell agreement can easily be funded by insurance and make everyone whole in often a very turbulent time. 5. Meet with a business broker, spend time with them, and befriend them. Review your financials annually or bi-annually with them and understand your
ANDREW CAGNETTA Certified Business Intermediary CEO, Transworld Business Advisors Offices Nationwide www.tworld.com ac@tworld.com
business market value. A strong relationship with a broker and knowledge of the marketplace will make selling your business relatively painless. 6. Have a sell price! When you reach your goal, punch out and do something else! 7. Be realistic and unemotional. A business can become like a child to entrepreneurs. This can lead to bad decisions about when to sell or dispose of a business. Try to listen to others and understand when the time to sell is upon you. One thing is certain in business ownership. One day you will not own it. The only question is how that is going to come to be, and with help, it can be a very profitable and easy transition!

CafĂŠ Maxx Impeccable dining, unpretentious ambience BY RANDI AILEEN PRESS, DINING DUCHESS
C
afĂŠ Maxx is a destination, not just a dining experience. Those who desire impeccable food in a lively yet unpretentious atmosphere will be drawn to this landmark restaurant in Pompano Beach. Darrel Broek greets guests as they enter the main dining area. He has a charm and energy thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s captivating. The same is true of Chef Oliver Saucy, as he moves effortlessly in his kitchen preparing enticing

dishes for patrons in the cafĂŠ. That identical energy RADIATES THROUGHOUT THE STAFF *USTIN $EVER OUR SERVER has been with CafĂŠ Maxx for more than 13 years. He enthusiastically shares how the chef changes the menu daily, but some items are favorites and remain always. (E S NOT A TYPICAL SERVER *USTIN HAS TAKEN A STEP BEYOND to learn speciďŹ cs on wine, food, and how to educate the diner on what is best to order with a speciďŹ c entrĂŠe. Chef Oliver makes it extraordinarily difďŹ cult to
choose between appetizers. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all enticing. The fresh chilled Maine Lobster Summer Roll with citrus and sweet chili ponzu is light and delicious. The Slice of Caviar Pie is served with egg, onion, layers of sour cream, and topped with tobiko caviar. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wonderful. But there are two must-haves appetizers you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to miss. The Tuna Sashimi Pizza is unique. Served on a fried wonton, this crispy pizza with wasabi cream cheese, ginger, and caviar is outrageous. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Almost every table orders the PIZZA v *USTIN SMILES AND NOW ) know why. The most tempting is THE 3AUTĂ?ED (UDSON 6ALLEY $UCK Foie Gras. Served with key lime curd, wilted spinach, and orangepomegranate sauce, this is beyond words. The curd almost resembles a bread pudding. Unbelievably delectable! There are many options when ordering at CafĂŠ Maxx. Soups, salads, pastas, lighter fare (reduced calories, lower carbohydrates and smaller portions), along with other selections that will tempt you. There is something for every palate. When the entrees are served, every plate is a piece of art. The Dark Cherry and Raspberry
Glazed Duck Breasts rest on a double potato and mascarpone au gratin with beans and carrots. The sauce is a mixture between a touch of sweet with the right amount of spice to sneak up on you. The Three Peppercorn Filet Mignon is tender and extraordinary. The steak is prepared spot on and is delicately placed next to the three cheese au gratin potatoes, shallot-thyme compound butter, and natural jus. This is one menu item that is always offered and ordered. A ďŹ sh dish not to miss is the Lemon Herb Salmon. Perfectly seasoned, ďŹ&#x201A;aky and delicious, the salmon is placed on top of ruby and gold beets, sweet potatoes, spinach, and just the right amount of citrus butter. By this time, you are satiated but you cannot miss dessert. Room must be made for pastry chef Bernie Delacruzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s specials and house favorites. I believe in eating desserts always. Life is short and sweets are worth indulging. I also believe that CafĂŠ Maxxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Butterscotch Bread Pudding may be one of the best I have ever had in the world. Served with pretzel crumble, caramel drizzle, and vanilla ice cream, you will not be disappointed. The Warm Apple Tart with apple jack caramel, almond frangipane, and cinnamonscented ice cream also rivals the pudding. Also worth mentioning is THE 6ANILLA "EAN #RĂ&#x2019;ME "RULEE 9OU will love the almond lace cup with pineapple rum caramel sauce and cookies decorating the plate. CafĂŠ Maxx celebrated its 29th year anniversary last month. Enjoy a simply wonderful dinner or celebrate something special with Darrel and Chef Oliver.
