Spared again

By Larry Blustein @sfsuntimes@aol.com Okay, we dodged another storm, as Erika broke apart and became a decent rain maker.

While many believe this area is due for a storm, hearing that statement alone should have all residents of Florida, especially in southern Florida, watching and paying full attention to anything that appears headed in this direction.

Remember, if you are new to our beautiful slice of heaven, there is one major thing that

Hollywood cuts the Ribbon Can kissing lead to an infectious disease? on newest Dog Park HOLLYWOOD - Residents and their 4legged friends were on hand to celebrate the grand opening of the City’s newest dog park, Hollywoof Dog Park, at Stan Goldman Memorial Park. Owners and their pooches visited with vendors to fetch some free K-9 treats before the Junkanoo band kicked off the official celebration. As soon as Hollywood's elected officials cut the ribbon, the dogs were off for some tail waggin’ fun.

Pups of all sizes cooled their paws in wading pools, jumped on and through the exercise equipment, and enjoyed stretching their legs as they ran leashfree. The Hollywoof Dog Park is 20,000+ square feet of secured

• ‘Oral transmission’ refers to the spreading of microbes through saliva, foods or drinks ough several routes of transmission.

“Oral transmission” refers to spreading of microbes through saliva, foods or drinks. When a person accidentally consumes microbe-contaminated items, such as saliva during kissing, the swallowing action of the tongue wipes the microbes against the back of the throat, allowing the microbe to enter the body. Infections, such as mononucleosis (the kissing disease), caused by Epstein––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– INFECTIOUS DISEASES IN SALIVA BOBADILLA, Page 3A Infectious diseases are spread thrWe know that kisses of passion can lead to one thing or another. But did you know that kissing can also lead to an infectious disease? Mononucleosis, or mono, is the prototypical “kissing disease,” and sexuallytransmitted diseases are infamous following some romantic interludes.

But did you know that there are many infections that can be spread through mere kissing alone?

Can kissing lead to an infectious disease?

Bobadilla From Page 1A –––––––––––––––––––––– -Barr virus (EBV), and cytomegalovirus (CMV) are spread via oral transmission from viruscontaining saliva.

Other infectious microbes that spread through saliva do so by sticking to the inner surface of the cheeks and mouth, the tongue, or teeth. An example is the bacterium Streptococcus, which can cause an array of infections, including gum disease and strep throat.

An important thing to keep in mind is that the surfaces of the respiratory tract (nose, mouth, and throat) are continuous and made up of similar tissues.

As a result, microbes that are found in the saliva can generally be found in other parts of the respiratory tract, including the nose and throat. Therefore, even colds and flus (and other respiratory infections) can potentially be spread through the saliva.

INFECTIOUS DISEASES FROM MOUTH SORES Cold sores Cold sores are caused

by Herpes Simplex Virus-1 (HSV-1). In contrast to infections spread through the saliva, HSV-1 is spread through open cold sores on the lips or near the mouth. Although the infection is contagious through all stages of a cold sore, the infection is most contagious when the sore is open and leaking fluid.

HAND, FOOT, AND MOUTH DISEASE Hand, foot, and mouth disease, caused by Coxsackie virus, is another infectious disease that is spread through open sores in the mouth. This infection is common in kids, especially those in daycare or preschool settings. It spreads primarily via the fecal-oral route, a common problem among daycares, since changing of diapers goes on all day.

Knowing a potential significant other’s sexually transmitted disease status is mandatory these days. But is there even more to be concerned about?

It seems as though before you even kiss

When it comes to your dental needs, Team Bobadilla is always there waiting to help you through some important decisions.

goodnight, you may want to check your date’s dental records.

Studies show that cavities and gum disease are contagious—and can be transmitted through swapping spit, just like colds and flu. In fact, some experts estimate that up to 500 different germs can be transmitted in a single kiss.

Saliva and the mouth are full of viruses and bacteria, including some that cause cavities and gum disease.

Kissing a partner who is actively infected with gum disease or cavitycausing bacteria can cause a person who previously had a low concentration of these bacteria to ‘catch’ problems, due to the extra dose of bacteria from kissing—particularly if that person has poor oral habits that set the stage for tooth decay.

1. PERIODONTITIS In a dental care article published in the Journal of the American Dental Association, it was revealed that periodontitis might be passed from parents to children and between intimate partners.

The bacteria that inhabit the periodontal pockets are also present on the oral soft tissues, teeth, tongue and saliva. They can be transferred from one person to another through saliva, intimate kissing, sharing of food, utensils, or toothbrushes and can result in exposure to saliva that contain the bacteria that cause periodontal disease.

It spreads primarily via the fecaloral route, a common problem among daycares, since changing of diapers goes on all day.

4. STREP THROAT “Strep” bacteria are highly contagious, and they spread through airborne droplets. This means that tiny droplets containing the bacteria are released into the air when someone with strep breathes, coughs, kisses someone or

sneezes.

To prevent transmission of periodontitis between family members or intimate partners, it is important to follow proper dental care and oral hygiene techniques that include daily brushing and flossing and to see a dental care provider routinely and possibly a Periodontist for professional cleanings and examinations.

“KISSERS BEWARE OF THE INFECTIONS YOU CAN SHARE.”

possible that Hep A or C could be transmitted through kissing if there are open sores or remnant fecal matter in the mouth, but extraordinarily unlikely.

NATURAL MICROBIAL DEFENSE MECHANISMS IN THE MOUTH Saliva has a natural cleansing role, provided by its flushing activity.

Other antimicrobial defenses in the saliva include antibodies and other antimicrobial proteins (e.g., lysozyme), and normal mouth flora (the “good” bacteria that prevents growth of “bad” bacteria).

The spread of infectious microbes through the saliva can occur when natural resistance in the mouth is reduced.

For example, gum infections can occur in people with vitamin C deficiencies, and thrush, caused by Candida yeast infections, is more likely to occur in people who have been taking antibiotics. People who are dehydrated have reduced salivary

5. WHAT ABOUT HIV AND HEPATITIS B VIRUS? HIV and hepatitis B Virus (HBV) are bloodborne and sexuallytransmitted infections that have been found in the saliva. Despite the presence of HIV in saliva, there have never been any reports of HIV transmission via this route. In contrast, transmission of hepatitis B virus through saliva has been well documented.

Meanwhile, Hepatitis A requires some form of fecal exposure (which would include contaminated water or anilingus) and Hepatitis C requires blood exposure.

flow and four times more bacteria in their mouths.

Now, the good news: Most people have natural defenses in their immune system that protect them from infection. However, if you do have gum issues, it is a good idea to avoid kissing infants and those with compromised immune systems (including people with chronic diseases) on the mouth, says Dr. Bobadilla.

And don’t let wet kisses scare you: In fact, bacteria are more likely to lurk in a dry mouth.

Even if your partner has gum disease, you don’t have to stop smooching. Just take extra effort to practice good oral hygiene, which of course includes regular brushing and flossing, and see your dentist every six months.

City Manager, City Attorney are vital jobs in the City

By Mayor Joy Cooper HALLANDALE BEACH When I covered the budget, I did not get a chance to review our evaluations of the City Manager and the City Attorney. These two positions are directly hired and serve at the pleasure of the majority of the commission. In other words, their contracts run annually and need to pass by vote. I have had the pleasure to work with 4 City Managers. Before covering these evaluations, I believe it so important to understand the history and nature of the positions. This week, I will go over the City Manager and next week, the City Attorney.

City Managers and the council manager form of government run the day to day operations. The commission and the legislative branch is similar to a board of directors.

We set the policy, approve the budget and provide a level of oversite to the management. We hire the City Manager and the City Attorney, the City Manager hires and fires all other employees.

When I was first elected, RJ Intindola was the City Manager. To date, he was the longest serving City Manager in our city. I learned so much from him and respected his wealth of knowledge. He created much of the foundation for our budget and organization. He had a keen sense of redevelopment that at the time was not shared by the majority of the commission.

The commission fighting over development created an unneeded stagnation in the tax base.

His vision to the future of redevelopment and his conservative budget approach has served our city well and set the course for what we are today.

Following RJ Intindola was Mike Good. Mike came to the dais with a great sense of what makes the city tick. With that, I mean our Public Works. He was the Director of Public Works and had a tremendous passion for our city and our workers. He also had a great ability to negotiate and solve many issues.

Running one the oldest cities in Broward, this knowledge and talent was a huge plus. Without his tenancy and fierce protection of the city, the Village of Gulfstream would not have worked.

Mike also led the way, not just by words but by action. He led the city through the economic crisis. He was one of the first to propose moving general employees to a 401K. That negotiation was necessary, but to say the least, difficult for all. In the end, the commission and the union came to an agreement.

The beauty was that Mike voluntarily gave up his drop to continue working for our city when many administrators would have moved on. Now all new hires, administration and employees are in 401K’s.

It is not without pause that I write about Mike.

Mike was a dedicated father. He raised his girls and never lost sight that family comes first. It was a sad and difficult time when he was asked to step down but at that time, he had lost balance between the two. He also struggled constantly with a commissioner that was determined to destroy him, which added to the perfect storm. No one should ever fault him for that, but the city had to go on. It was wonderful to see that retirement is agreeing with him and his family.

Mark Antonio served after Mike, until his retirement. For a bit less than two years, he led the city through a horrible recession and from an ongoing investigation by the OIG for Broward County of our CRA. The investigation came up with something we all knew and had already started to address. After many years of staff turnover, record keeping was not centralized. The OIG also questioned our grants loans and other improvement programs.

The two year investigation did not prove any corruption nor fraud on the CRA or city's part.

When Mark left, the remnants of the OIG were still ongoing.

After Mark, we did a search and hired our current City Manager, Renee Miller. Renee actually worked for Hallandale Beach back when RJ was City Manager. She came back to HB via the city of Miami Gardens where she served as as-

sistant to City Manager.

After working with three other City Managers, I can say she has it all.

Overall knowledge, vision, passion, creativity and an amazing work ethic, she was hired and hit the ground running.

Every working adult understands that at every job there is politics. In government, more so than not. As a professional, three votes can make or break a City Manager’s job. In many cases, elections set the tone. When the tide turns many City Managers just resign. Not because they were bad but because the majority wants someone else. Personality politics I call it. Not practical common sense; egos and philosophies. Some elected would rather fire someone to pay less. In my view, you get what you pay for.

We have one of the best City Managers, Renee Miller runs a full service city with over 400 plus employees. As CEO, she has held the line on costs and created internal efficiencies through

working with all directors. She continues to address our aging infrastructure through capital investment planning. She has negotiated tough union contracts with the first CAP on DB benefits.

Delivered three parks on time and under budget, in my book it does not get much better.

During our budget workshops, for the past years, I have asked that our city commission fill out a formal evaluation form for our two employees. I am not sure if everyone submitted theirs. Vice Mayor Julian and Commissioner Sanders share their comments publicly as did I. They were all in support and commented on our progress. Regretfully, the other commissioners did not make comments.

After comments were shared, I requested that due to the hard work and performance that our City Manager’s contract be renewed and she receive a bonus of $15,000 and a 5% COLA. It passed Cooper, Julian and Sanders voted yes.

I forgot to mention that she also runs our CRA as Executive Director, two positions at the same time! At the CRA, she oversees the CRA staff and provides the annual budget. The CRA continues to be very successful and has partnered with the city. Currently, the CRA is developing OB Johnson Park and is providing many grant opportunities for our local businesses and residents. The CRA is also developing affordable housing.

I hope that you have a wonderful and safe Labor Day Weekend! I also hope you have a chance to stop by the Hallandale Beach VFW at the intersection of First Avenue and 3rd Street. Starting at 3 p.m., they are having BBQ fundraiser.

One of the unique features added to the park is an environmentally friendly drainage system that incorporates ‘bio-retention.’ The bio-retention areas installed in the park capture and store stormwater run-off and filter it through a special sand/soil mix. This allows the roots of wetland plants to filter the water as it drains into a gravel reservoir below the surface, and eventually re-enters the groundwater system. The science of bio-retention has been incorporated for years in cities like Portland, Oregon. This was an opportunity to introduce a pilot system in Hollywood.

Hollywoof is part of Phase I of the Stan Goldman Memorial Park improvements. Other enhancements to the park include new entrance signage and pavement, additional parking for 15 vehicles, new fencing and gates, security lighting and landscaping. Additionally, the skate park area has been recently refurbished. Located along the water, the park is shaded by a mature tree canopy and features and picnic pavilion, restroom facilities and children’s playground equipment on an artificial turf safety surface.

Stan Goldman Park featuring the new Hollywoof Dog Park is located at 800 Knights Road in the Park East neighborhood and is open from dawn to dusk. For more information on the Hollywoof Dog Park, please call the Department of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts at 954.921.3404.

Storm From Page 1A –––––––––––––––––––––– For those who have lived here much of their lives, like Mike Thomas of Hallandale Beach, picking up branches and securing things as far back as last Thursday, is something that you do when you've lived through this.

He is not the only one who knows that preparation does indeed save lives and property.

"I have been here since I was 9," Thomas said. "I am now 54, so you know that between Hurricane Andrew and many of the others who have threatened - or have hit this region - I take this stuff very seriously."

Thomas is not alone.

Many residents in our communities actually have been helpful to those who have never experienced tropical weather before. Just the little things like bringing in garbage cans, getting water, making sure that you have a plan - in case you have to evacuate goes a long way.

At a time when every Erika broke apart and became a decent rain maker. hosts hurricane preparedness events even enticing residents to attend - with giveaways - there is never enough you can do to prepare for a storm, and as Thomas admits, "false alarms" are perhaps the biggest negatives in the fight to educate and make everyone understand how severe any kind of storm can be.

"The worst thing that I have found is when we are told that tropical weather is headed in our direction, and when it doesn't, many get that attitude," Thomas explained. "My neighbors are from Michigan and they have never been through a storm - and after a few false alarms I am afraid they are not going to get ready, and the results could be deadly."

To so many property owners, the very thought of not being ready to protect your investment is crazy, at best. In this day and age of social media, where we can also see the destruction of what a major hurricane can do, leaving many without a home - and loss of life, it seems that everyone would be ready - just in case.

Amy Munroe was a teenager, living in the Redlands when Hurricane Andrew tore through her home - next to Homestead. That night has stayed with her over the past 20 years, and that fear is real.

Today, Munroe lives in Aventura, and while she has children of her own,

now, hurricane season always brings back the six hours she spent huddled in her parents' closet and having to deal with the devastating aftermath.

kids were obviously not born, so I go through this pretty much myself."

Munroe, who went through that driving rain and "freight-train sound" that so many will tell you that tornadoes and 160 mile per hour winds bring, has become one of those who preaches being prepared. This past Thursday night - when there was a threat that Erika could come this way - she sprung into action.

"I took my daughter and went to the store and wiped them out of water, canned foods and batteries," she smiled. "But I was there - no lines and had a list of everything to get."

Munroe knows that while she spent over $300 on supplies, this season still has a long way to go. In fact, we have just reached the halfway point - which comes to an end in late November.

With names Ana, Bill, Claudette, Danny and Erika used so far, there is a reminder that Hurri-

As Tropical Storm Erika missed the area, it was the perfect time for a hurricane drill

LEFT: Key Hallandale Beach staff gather for a conference call with the Broward EOC on Friday when Tropical Storm Erika was still a threat to the community. Plans were set in motion for additional resources and staffing to ensure the City was prepared for a storm. The City was ready, were you? RIGHT: Hallandale Beach staff works diligently to load sandbags for residents preparing for the approach of Tropical Storm Erika. The City recognizes the lowlying areas susceptible to flooding and provides free sandbags to residents to mitigate the potential for damage. Residents were required to provide proof of residency before staff loaded the sandbags into the vehicles. (Photo courtesy City of Hallandale Beach Public Relations) Hallandale Beach and all of South Florida was spared an assault from Tropical Storm Erika, but the National Hurricane

Police Department use of force practices discussed

Consultants met with community residents last Wednesday and Thursday to glean input on the City’s Police Department use of force practices. Residents, young and old, turned out to offer insight into the City’s police policies. Residents were encouraged to be vocal and discuss positive and negative perceptions of the City’s police force. The City asked for the evaluation to gage community perception in light of several high-profile national confrontations between the police and community. Hallandale Beach hired the national consulting firm of Greenwood & Streicher LLC to evaluate the police department. Greenwood & Streicher focuses on government accountability and policing solutions.

monitoring the event,” said Hallandale Beach Fire Rescue Acting Chief Mark Ellis. “This served as a great dry run for all residents. Now is the time to reflect on your emergency plan and look for ways to improve your plan. What worked and what didn’t work? Now is the time to make adjustments.”

Annually, the City hosts a Hurricane Preparedness forum at the begin-

ning of the hurricane season. EOC managers urge residents to make plans. Planning is essential to keeping safe.

The City’s EOC staff and directors kept track of the storm with briefings from the National Hurricane Center and Broward EOC. The City put its plan into action by placing additional staff at the standby, checking pumps to mitigate any potential for flooding and

offering sandbags to residents to help they minimize flooding. Well over 1,500 sandbags were distributed to residents.

Chief Ellis asks all residents to be prepared, and reminds us that September is National Preparedness Month. The hurricane season reaches its peak in September before ending on Nov. 30. There have been six named storms so far in 2015.

5 simple time-tested tips for aging well fied personal trainer, registered dietician and nutrition expert at www.ontargetliving.com points out five timetested strategies for aging well: DAILY EXERCISE "Daily movement is the real fountain of youth. It keeps us healthy from the inside out," says Johnson.

She notes that quality over quantity is what really matters.

Dermatologist Q&A: essential tips for naturally vibrant and moisturized skin (BPT) - From creams and gels to serums and oils, moisturizers are often at the forefront of a woman's beauty routine. However, moisture can also be regarded for the negative effects it can have on skin, as in the case of sweat and surface wetness that can lead to a range of various conditions. These quintessential examples of "good moisture" and "bad moisture" demonstrate that we should consider both when it comes to a comprehensive skin care routine.

Dove Dermatologist Dr. Ellen Marmur shares the difference between the good and the bad, while offering her tips for achieving softer, smoother skin from head to toe.

Q: First, how does our skin differ from place to place on our bodies?

A: Fundamentally, all skin is made up of the same building blocks, but different characteristics such as thickness, pigmentation, hair follicles and sweat glands all factor into how we care for different parts of the body. For example, the skin on our neck and face is very fine, while the skin on our arms and legs have more sweat glands and hair follicles. There are also unique hybrid areas such as our underarms, where the skin is fine like on our neck, but also has more sweat glands and hair follicles.

Q: With so many characteristics, does all skin need moisture?

A: Absolutely. The skin is an intricate protective layer of cells that requires adequate hydration to stay healthy and looking its best. A lack of moisture can weaken the stratum corneum (our outermost epidermal layer), which helps protect underlying tissue from bacteria and enzymes. In addition, moisture contributes to the overall softness and smoothness of skin and can help reduce itchy dryness, uncomfortable irritation and visible redness. Throughout the day, our skin loses moisture due to a range of factors - from fabrics we wear to various climate conditions - and that moisture needs to be replenished in order to maintain the skin's overall balance.

Q: What is the difference between good and bad moisture?

A: "Good moisture" is an important element of proper skin care. It refers to applying topical moisturizers that are formulated to draw moisture into the outer layer of our skin to replenish hydration lost throughout the day. "Bad moisture" refers to surface moisture that can disrupt the skin's healthy barrier. It can come in the form of sweat that leaves behind salt, enzymes and odor-causing bacteria or it can come from prolonged exposure to water (e.g., a day in the pool, a long, hot shower).

"When it comes to improving overall fitness, high-intensity exercise for a short amount of time may be much more beneficial than low intensity for a long amount of time," Johnson says.

"Research suggests that fat-burning hormones like human growth hormones and testosterone are stimulated by highintensity exercise, while fat-storing hormones like cortisol may be lowered. Try increasing the intensity and frequency of your exercise, while decreasing the time spent."

SUPERFOODS The foods you eat influence how you look and feel, from glowing and confident to lethargic and sick. Selecting foods that people have eaten historically as nutritional powerhouses can help boost overall wellness.

"Superfoods are nutrient-rich foods, such as fruits, vegetables, ancient grains, healthy fats and lean proteins," says Johnson. "These foods naturally contain high amounts of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, which all contribute to healthy aging."

A few to focus on: * Carrots, squash and sweet potatoes are extremely beneficial for eye and skin health, thanks to high levels of beta-carotene, a type of vitamin A. * Any brightly colored fruits and vegetables will have an abundant amount of antioxidants, and these help prevent oxidation and cell damage. Examples: raspberries, kale and cabbage. * Carbohydrates like

healthy grains, beans and potatoes help you produce serotonin, a calming and satiety hormone that helps fight stress and anxiety's negative effects.

NUTRIENTS Supplements help fill nutritional gaps, especially as the aging body requires greater amounts of certain vitamins and minerals.

Johnson points out the importance of omega-3s for aging well.

"Omega-3 fats are essential for getting you healthy from the inside out, all while helping improve hormonal balance, brain health, weight loss and metabolism," she says. "Omega-3 fats are also extremely helpful for healthy skin, hair and nails."

Her favorite? Nordic Naturals Cod Liver Oil. "This contains EPA and DHA, both of which contribute to a healthy heart and brain," she says.

"Cod liver oil also helps improve cellular function, energy and mood.

Did you know cod liver oil can actually taste good? Try their delicious

orange flavor."

SLEEP "Chronic lack of sleep is one of the fastest ways to age the human body," Johnson says.

"Lack of sleep can have a huge impact on the appearance of skin, causing fine lines, wrinkles and dark under-eye circles. Not getting enough sleep can also cause your body to release a stress hormone called cortisol."

She notes that adequate sleep can positively influence cognitive ability, mood, weight loss and skin rejuvenation, so it should be a top priority for an agingwell routine. While the right amount of sleep will vary between individuals, the goal for most adults is around 7 to 8 hours a night.

SOCIAL ACTIVITY Human interaction can decrease as people age, but it's more important than ever to form and maintain bonds with others. Participating in so-

cial activity is a fun way to enjoy life and reap real health benefits.

"The American Medical Association has noted that stress is the basic cause for more than 60 percent of all human illnesses and diseases," says Johnson. '"When you are socially active and surround yourself with people you enjoy, you may be less likely to feel lonely, unhappy, or unfulfilled, all of which can cause unwanted stress."

Finally, there's no need to become overwhelmed; start an agingwell routine by taking one small step and building healthy habits over time. This is what will lead to long-term success.

"Remember that it's never too late to start living a healthy and happy life," Johnson says. "Give yourself more reasons to smile and laugh! Did you know research suggests that happy people live longer, healthier and more fulfilling lives?"

(BPT) - A health renaissance is taking place in America as more people are embracing aging well and being proactive rather than reactive about their well-being.

The longest running musical ‘The Fantastics’ coming to the Broward Stage Door Theatre SPOTLIGHT ON STAGE

By Eleanor Hannan The Fantastics have been entrancing generations of audiences the world over. It is a funny and romantic musical about a boy, a girl, two fathers and a story that centers on a sort of a mock “Romeo and Juliet” as the couple are tricked into falling in love by their fathers. The narrator, El Gallo, asks the audience to use their imagination and follow him into a world of moonlight and magic. The boy and the girl fall in love, grow apart and finally find their way back to each other after realizing the truth in El Gallo’s words that “Without a hurt, the heart is hollow.” The wonderful famous score, which includes the classics: “Try to Remember,” “They Were You” and “Soon It’s Going To Rain,” is as timeless as the story itself. The long running musical turns 55 and it’s getting a birthday gift to keep going. Plans were to close the show after 20,000 performances, but donors pledged to fund the off-Broadway show.

The show opens on the 4th of September and runs through October 11th, 2015 at the Stage Door Theatre located at 8036 West Sample Road, Coral Springs. Tickets are $38 available at the box office. Performances are Wednesday to Sunday, evenings at 8 p.m. and matinees at 2 p.m. For all other information, call: (954) 344-7765.

The opera Atelier returns on Saturday, September 12th, 2015 at 8 p.m. to the Aventura Center, in an original staged production with a program of Great Opera Moments.
