a Rural Argentine Grill serves the best steaks this side of Buenos Aires. The steakhouse started as a small grocery and butcher selling premium cuts of Certified Black Angus Beef. It began with one table in the back and quickly grew into a full-service restaurant. While you can still shop its gourmet market, La Rural now offers a complete menu of Argentinean-style steaks and fine wines, along with a selection of Italian dishes. The house specialties include the Entraña (skirt steak), Vacio (flap meat), and the Gaucho’s favorite, Asado de Tira (short ribs). For a true taste of Argentina, try the Tablita La Rural. This grilled sampler platter features Chorizo Argentino (cured pork sausage), Morcilla (blood sausage), Mollejas (sweetbreads), Salchicha Parrillera (pinwheel sausage) accompanied by grilled peppers and marinated artichoke hearts. La Rural’s famous empanadas are a great way to start any meal, or top one off with one of the restaurant’s authentic Argentinean pastries for dessert. The ambience of this intimate establishment is further enhanced by the restaurant’s waterfront dining. La Rural is open for lunch and dinner every day except Tuesday.

r. Simon Weiss combines cutting edge technology with compassion and care. Ever since medical school, Dr. Weiss has embraced technology. He was selected as one of the privileged few to train in a fellowship in Laparoscopic surgery. He was also one of the first physicians to adopt the da Vinci® Surgical System. Dr. Weiss has found great success using da Vinci® to perform hysterectomies and other complex gynecological procedures. Not only does this state-of-the-art technology offer the surgeon greater precision and control, but patients have significantly less pain and a faster recovery. Another high-tech tool Dr. Weiss is using to better care for his patients is the HALO Breast Pap Test. Dr. Weiss was the first doctor in our area to introduce this revolutionary risk assessment test for breast cancer. HALO can identify a woman’s risk for breast cancer up to eight years before it could be detected on a mammogram. In addition to these cutting-edge technologies, Dr. Weiss also offers patients in-office, non-surgical treatments for sterilization and incontinence, as well as complete gynecological and obstetric care including infertility, high-risk pregnancy and menopause management.

POC’s sushi buffet features over 30 selections of sushi, sashimi and skillfully prepared rolls each day. The selection varies daily, depending on the availability of fresh fish. Chef Johnny HK brings his blend of Western and Eastern techniques into the kitchen as he creates his innovative Asian-fusion dishes for POC.

ric Solomon is a second generation residential realtor and has been in the business for years in West Broward. His agency, Solomon Homes, is an independent Weston-based company that has specialized in short sale negotiations for the past six years. Eric understands that short selling a property is the last option for most homeowners. The term comes from selling a home for less or “short” of what is currently owed. A short sale requires a lender’s approval. It’s important to work with a real estate agent, such as Eric, who is experienced with short sale transactions because you want to make certain the lender signs a release of personal liability; this way they can’t come after you later for the deficiency. One of the many reasons that Solomon Homes has had so much success in closing short sales is because Eric does not outsource the paperwork or the negotiations required in these files. He is one of the only local real estate agents to negotiate directly with the banks. Eric and his team handle the listing and short sale from start to finish. Many can be closed in less than four months. Eric believes customer service comes first. He is committed to keeping his client’s best interest at heart throughout the entire real estate process of buying and selling homes.

2012 is the year of the short sale. This year is especially important for sellers looking to get out of their under-water homes - this is the last year you don’t have to pay federal taxes on the write-off from the Short Sale. The Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act & Debt Cancellation expires December 31, 2012. Contact Eric and his team to discuss your options.
“ “
Working with Eric was a pleasure. We thought a short sale process would take at least a year, but it took Eric less than 4 months. He was very informative throughout the entire process. There was never a time where we felt abandoned. Once the sale was approved, Eric found us a home to rent within a week. Eric will be the first person we call in our next move.” -The Hlasny Family Thank you so much for all your hard work to get our short sale approved. We felt you were with us every step of the way and keeping our best interest always a top priority. We were shocked it was done in only 4 months from start to finish.” -The Eklund Family Short Sales in Progress

y Little Genius offers students a bilingual preschool education. Children are immersed in the Spanish language and can become fluent speakers. For students in the youngest classes (0-2 years old) almost the entire class is taught in Spanish, with the exception of Circle Time and some commands. Students in the 3 and 4-year-old programs spend about half the day learning English and half learning Spanish. However, the state-funded VPK program is taught in English. The curriculum is a discovery-based learning experience in which children learn basic concepts and skills through hands-on experiences and activities. At My Little Genius, students move through specially designed learning centers using a rotary system. Each classroom houses a different specialty. The students rotate from classroom to classroom with their teacher. Subject areas include core subjects such as language and science, as well as art, cooking and computers. Children also love the school’s enormous outdoor playground. It features an assortment of climbing structures and slides, play houses, and multiple cars and tricycles. In addition to playground time, children participate in sports and physical fitness programs.

ids Helping Kids teaches children to give back to their community and help other children in need. Every year the organization collects backpacks and school supplies to donate to disadvantaged children.
This past year, Kids Helping Kids helped make the first day of school special for students at Royal Palm Elementary School. Kids Helping Kids collected 150 backpacks, 150 notebooks, 130 folders, 125 boxes of crayons, 75 packs of colored pencils, 200 pink erasers, and assorted other school supplies. This was made possible through the generous support of the Weston community, including many children who took the initiative to raise funds by selling treats or soliciting their neighbors. That is the ultimate mission of Kids Helping Kids: to instill a sense of philanthropy in children and teach them that they can make a difference. To learn how you and your children can get involved with Kids Helping Kids email kidshelpkids411@gmail.com.

There will be separate egg hunts for different age groups; parents will be permitted on the fields only with the five and under age group. Children should bring their own baskets to collect some of the 20,000 candy-filled eggs or one of the special eggs, which can be redeemed for small prizes. The fun doesn’t stop after all the eggs have been gathered. Children can take pictures with the Royal Bunny and enjoy the bounce houses until noon.
