FATHERS – FLAG DAY– FACEBOOK

This month we celebrate fathers on June 17th. So, I wish all the dads a Happy Father’s Day.

Tim Russert wrote the book, Wisdom of Our Fathers with refl ections from children and the impact their father had on their lives. I read this book as well as listen to it on long trips in the car. The messages from each individual’s perspective are both heartwarming and heart wrenching. It reminds me of the lessons of service, opportunity and perseverance my dad taught me and my hope of what I pass to my son.

Through the years, fatherhood has taken on many facets from the Greatest Generations war torn toughness to today’s kinder, gentler dad. What I learned from my dad is - you are what you do. That is, you make a life not by what you get, rather by what you give.

My dad was not able to provide much monetarily, but he did provide the example of the power of service to others. This is what creates opportunity and one’s legacy. Embracing this characteristic has been challenging and at times disadvantageous to me personally. Still, I believe, in the long run, it will produce benefi ts beyond my dreams.

I know there will be days when I stumble or when people try to knock me down, but I was taught to look up, get up and never give up!

Flag Day – When? Always June 14th! This is the day for all Americans, and those who have been given the opportunity to live here in the USA, to celebrate and show respect for our fl ag, its designers and makers as well as those men and women who protect, or paid the ultimate sacrifi ce for,

what the fl ag symbolizes. Our fl ag represents our independence and our unity as a nation - one nation, under God, indivisible. Our fl ag has a proud history and is known as an emblem of Liberty around the world.

So, no matter where you are from, I urge you to raise the American fl ag this month and every day with pride!

Speaking of raising the fl ag, Facebook will go public as one of the greatest images for what America represents – Opportunity. This is where one takes an idea to connect billions of people through digital channels and ultimately profi ts by its proliferation.

And, now you can buy popularity on the site. A Facebook spokesperson confi rmed last month the “pay to play” test going on in New Zealand. Capitalism at its best!

The service Facebook provides are numerous, from reconnecting lifelong friends to fostering business

transactions and it has even been credited for the rise of liberty in countries once dominated by dictators. Let’s hope it also serves a catalyst for positive change toward peace and global collaborations to bring opportunities for all humanity. After all, isn’t this the aspiration of all fathers for their children?

Happy Father’s Day – As Always – Enjoy the Lifestyle!

June marks the beginning of family travel season.

If you’re like us when you hit the road, you want to see something different, not just the usual tourist haunts.

Enter http://atlasobscura.com/, a website designed and curated to share the hidden sites of cities you may be visiting.

This endlessly fascinating and well curated site will enable you to dazzle your friends when you suggest some off the beaten path destinations.

Even if you “staycation,” Altas Obscura can make you seem like an expert.

The site has more than a dozen offbeat Florida locations to explore. Our favorite: “The Skunk Ape Research Headquarters” in the Everglades. Dave Shealy is the Jane Goodall of the Florida Everglades. Shealy has spent his entire life studying a smelly hominid cryptid known as the Skunk Ape, and has established the offi cial Skunk Ape Research Center.

So what is a Skunk Ape? Think of Florida’s version of Big Foot. Does it exist? That’s for you to decide, but you may want to visit Dave Shealy fi rst. He can be found in Ochopee, Florida.

Until next month.

They look like something Lady Gaga would wear, but when you think about it OneSense headphones make…well…a lot of sense.

Sometimes, you may just want to listen to your music in peace, without being interrupted by

passers-by or visually intrusive ads, technology and surrounding events. That’s when you need a pair of the OneSense concept headphones that not only cover your ears, but also your eyes. The bright red design and intimidating spikes will defi nitely make people think twice before approaching you. And that’s a good thing, after all this is about enjoying the music without any interruptions.

The OneSense headphones were created by designer Joe Doucet.

The design is getting great play on all the right tech blogs. We’re not sure where to get them yet, but where’s there’s a will there’s a way. Or simply call Lady Gaga. www.joedoucet.com

Summertime is here, which means that it’s time to decide on your beach reading list.

If you’re looking for inspiration, look no further than a sensational new book entitled “What Do You Want To Do Before You Die?”

Jonnie Penn, Dave Lingwood, Duncan Penn and Ben Nemtin – collectively known as The Buried Life have written a stunning book that is sweeping the nation. Their live appearances at schools across the country have become a YouTube sensation as people of all ages share what they would like to accomplish before leaving this Earth. Answers range from having Morgan Freeman read them a bedtime story to ending human traffi cking.

The Buried Life team wrote the book to prove that four ordinary guys can achieve their bucket lists and inspire others to live their dreams.

The Buried Life is so confi dent that you will love their book that they are willing to buy it back if you don’t like it and they’ll even throw in a t- shirt for your trouble. Now that’s confi dence.

What Do You Want To Do Before You Die? Is an illustrated collection of your wildest dreams. Two hundred of the most moving, imaginative, amusing, and thought-provoking things to do before you die are brought to life through handmade art curated by Dave, Duncan, Jonnie and Ben—the founders of The Buried Life.

These four regular guys are on a mission to complete a list of 100 things before they die, and for every item they accomplish, they help a total stranger do something on his or her own to-do list. Peppered throughout the book are lessons, secrets, and stories that come from fi ve years of asking millions worldwide: What do you want to do before you die?

Without spoiling the book, their wish list includes playing basketball with President Obama (done), throwing out the fi rst pitch at a Major League Baseball game and delivering a baby.

Available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble and other fi ne book dealers. www.theburiedlifebook.com

Hundreds Join Longtime ACS Volunteer, David Singer for Jail and Bail Luncheon

Renowned Hollywood attorney David W. Singer hosted the organizational luncheon and where the committee was formed to plan this year’s annual Jail and Bail event, an occasion that has become synonymous with tremendous generosity and fun, benefi tting the American Cancer Society. The luncheon was held May 2, 2012 at the Airport Sheraton in Fort Lauderdale. Scores of professionals, local politicians, and business leaders from Broward County, North Miami-Dade and Southern Palm Beach Counties attended. The luncheon was highlighted by Honorary Chair Jason Taylor, a recently retired Miami Dolphin great. The Sponsors include Countyline Chiropractic, BrandsMart and Lipton Toyota.

Singer has chaired Jail and Bail for more than 20 years, and is responsible for raising more than $2.4 million dollars for the American Cancer Society. The event has developed its own unique mechanism for raising money, while the participants have a great time doing it. Singer picks

people to form his “parole board”. They, in turn, with some instruction, are taught how to fi nd “jail birds.” Volunteers on the “parole board” may have their worst enemy or best friend arrested and thrown in jail for this good cause. It is the “jailbirds” who make the calls from jail to get ACS pledges. If they meet their bail, they get out. Many are having such a blast, they don’t want to go! This year, Singer has targeted a goal of $200,000.

Broward County Sheriff Al Lamberti and State Attorney Mike Satz have become staples of Jail and Bail, and once again will participate in the excitement involving the resources of their sizable offi ces. Lamberti, a cancer survivor, has been an important part of the event for the past fi ve years, having served as the Honorary Chair in the past. Satz, also a former Honorary Chair, has been an irreplaceable part of Jail and Bail for the past 12 years.

“We are eager to get started. There is a lot of money to raise this year,” said Singer. “It will be gratifying to

those people that sign up to help. Al Lamberti and Mike Satz are invaluable to this event, which continues to grow each year. Jason Taylor, a sports legend in South Florida, and a certain NFL Hall of Famer, will be a huge help. He is truly one of a kind, and it is great that he is lending his name to this important cause.”

Rotary Club Celebrates Special Milestone... 50 Years of Service in Plantation

The Rotary Club of Plantation recently celebrated its 50th anniversary, having received its charter from Rotary International on March 8, 1962. Women were invited to join in 1985. Marking the 50th year milestone, Plantation Mayor Diane Veltri-Benbekovic presented a Proclamation to the members, and refl ected on fond memories of her late father, Frank Veltri who was active in the club for years.

Since its founding by 28 men, in what was then the small city of Plantation with 4,400 residents, the Club has served the community continuously through scholarships to college students, funds for food banks and holiday meals and gifts to needy families. Rotary club members are grassroots volunteers and successful business leaders and professionals, who want to give back to make the world a better place.

“We are now reaching out to high school students through Rotary’s ‘New Generation Program’,” said Club President Asbjorn Osteig. Known as Interact, the clubs are

intended to introduce young people between the ages of 14 to 20 to the mission and values of Rotary.

“Our fi rst Interact Club at South Plantation High School has already made a positive impact, helping other organizations and raising over $3,000.00 for American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life,” said incoming President Christopher Upton, who takes offi ce on July 1st.

Recently, the Club hosted its second Service Above Self Recognition Luncheon, selecting Enid Thompson from Senor Volunteer Services. She received $500.00 to donate to the charity of her choice. She chose her church in Sunrise and Senior Volunteer Services.

Norwegian born Asbjorn Osteig is winding up his two terms as President. He and his wife Margaret have lived in Plantation for the last 24 years. They also have a home in Oslo where he is active in Rotary.

“Rotary is a global entity that encourages its members to think about issues locally and abroad,” Christopher said. “We like to think

that we set a high standard of community service that translates into “Service above Self.” We recently hosted an event highlighting community members that illustrated this trait.” Christopher, who is the fi rst president that is a native of Plantation, lives with his wife, Lore and their two children.

The Rotary Club, which is reaching out through Social Networking and the Internet, meets every Tuesday for lunch at 12:00 p.m. at Jacaranda Country Club. Potential members living in Plantation and Sunrise are welcome. Call Chris Upton at (954) 577-8881.

For nearly 14 years, culinary maestro Angelo Elia has been warmly embracing diners and serving up authentic Tuscan cuisine in his cozy yet sophisticated fl agship restaurant, Casa

D’Angelo. It isn’t just his friendly smile or delectable Italian dishes (most of them inspired by his mama) that keeps locals and visitors fl ocking to this hidden gem located on Federal Highway, but also the impressive award-winning collection of more than 20,000 Italian and American wines.

Since wine is a pivotal part of the dining experience at Casa D’Angelo, Chef Elia works closely with his head sommelier Koen Kersemens to acquire a special collection of reds and whites, many quite rare, but all displayed in temperature-controlled wine rooms with glass panels for easy viewing. Wine novices fear not – the sommelier and staff are very educated and able to offer a variety of pairing options of both old world selections and more unique small production varietals. It’s this combination of service and variety that has won the restaurant’s internationally renowned wine program Wine Spectator’s “Best of Award of Excellence” every year consecutively since 2000.

“A great Italian supper is about all the senses working together and a meal’s not a meal without a good glass of wine,” says Elia with his signature smile.

Casa D’Angelo is located at 1201 North Federal

Highway in Fort Lauderdale. (954) 564-1234 www.

University School of Nova Southeastern University (NSU) has long been known as one of the fi nest private schools in South Florida, if not the nation. Founded in 1971, University School puts the “college” in college preparatory school. A private, independent, pre-K through 12th grade school located on the campus of NSU, University School is one of a few schools of its kind in the U.S. “This puts University School in a class all its own, with its students – diverse, determined and fully engaged in their education – uniquely poised to excel,” headmaster, Dr. Jerome Chermak explained.

One of the most unique facets of a University School experience is their school’s relationship with Nova Southeastern University. Students have access to the NSU library, the

largest in the state of Florida, to do research and study. They also have the opportunity to hear NSU

professors speak on a variety of topics; conduct individual research projects with NSU faculty mentors; engage in

mock trials with law school students and professors; and much more

“University School’s unique relationship with NSU fl ows both ways,” headmaster Chermak said. “NSU undergraduate and graduate students intern at the school, while many University School teachers – 75 percent of whom have advanced degrees – concurrently teach at the graduate level at NSU.”

Preparing students for the 21st century is a core component for both teachers and students. Students are motivated to excel and teachers in Pre-K through 12th grade “… prepare students to lead in the 21st century.”

Three University School seniors dish and tell and demonstrate their ability to lead by example, empower their peers, and fi nd the best in themselves by pursuing every available opportunity.

21ST CENTURY LEARNING AT ITS BEST…

“UNIVERSITY SCHOOL’S UNIQUE RELATIONSHIP WITH

NSU FLOWS BOTH WAYS,” HEADMASTER CHERMAK SAID. “NSU UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE STUDENTS INTERN AT THE SCHOOL, WHILE MANY

UNIVERSITY SCHOOL TEACHERS – 75 PERCENT OF WHOM

HAVE ADVANCED DEGREES – CONCURRENTLY TEACH AT THE

GRADUATE LEVEL AT NSU.”

JESSICA MOORE Jessica Moore has been at University

School for 12 years and was accepted to Emory University. With inspiration and encouragement from her Aunt Talia, Jessica has decided to pursue a major in Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology.

“My parents taught me from an early age that a good education is a person's most valuable attribute,” she said… which might explain why she is a Riley Science Award Recipient and an AP Scholar with Honor.

Her parents are professional musicians and instilled a love of music. As a member of the Florida Youth Orchestra, Jessica has achieved Superior Ratings at Piano and Violin Soloist Competitions at District and State Levels for the past fi ve years.

MATTHEW LINN Matthew Linn was recently accepted to Brown University. He’s the captain of his school’s Speech and Debate team, which has been his main focus in high school, and a member of the National, Math, Spanish, Science and English Honor Societies. In addition, he was named a National Merit Finalist, National Forensics League All-American, and an AP Scholar with Distinction.

“I have an amazing, loving family. My parents are always helping me become the best person that I can be,” Matthew said.

Matthew has been playing piano for the past decade, and when time permits, he loves kayaking. With an interest in travel and eventually living abroad, he’s becoming fl uent in Spanish and is studying Chinese.

MOLLY MOREAU Molly Moreau, an AP Scholar and

Broward County Science Fair winner, was accepted to Vanderbilt University. She plans to study Communications/Public Relations, and wants to be involved with the music industry.

“My parents have always felt that education is the best gift a parent can give a child.” Her close knit family are avid readers. “So much can be learned through books,” she added.

Molly is passionate about her volunteer work with A.H.L.E. orphanage in Honduras and has made seven trips there. Sixty-fi ve abandoned and abused boys live there. “They have taught me so much about myself… they are an inspiration,” Molly said.

Molly has taken dance lessons since she was two and is the President of Innovations Dance Company and Dance Honor Society.

UNIVERSITY SCHOOLSTUDENT SPOTLIGHT...

DID YOUKNOW?

While historically University School has been a vibrant hub of academic and artistic talent, its recent addition of several sports programs – and their team successes thus far – rounds out this one-of-a-kind learning environment. A case in point is the Soccer team, boasting a 2011 state championship.

Additionally, their Speech and Debate team ranks among the top one percent nationwide, multiple students were

honored with Emmy Awards for their world-class video productions, Middle and Upper School students won more than 60 Scholastic Art Awards and University School students won Best Build Design at last year’s VEX Robotics Competition.

For more information about University School, call (954) 262-4506 or visit uschool.nova.edu. The school is at 3375 S.W. 75th Avenue in Fort Lauderdale.

discussion, Martina is a top-tier math student with a penchant for singing Broadway. Or is she a promising actress and ballerina on the pre-med track? Indeed, Martina is all of these things. She thanks Pine Crest School for allowing her to be herself, and excel outside the box.

“Pine Crest is a school of intellectual thinking. There are no limits,” said Martina. “You walk around on campus and students aren’t talking about something on TV last night. You will hear conversations like, ‘Did you hear about the presidential campaign or some new scientifi c research?’ There is a mutual respect for one another.”

Martina balances a course load heavy with AP classes, sings in the chorus, and performs in principal roles in most of Pine Crest’s plays and musicals. She is in constant motion and she manages to earn top marks in all of her classes. She traveled with her classmates to the American High School Theater Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland in 2009, and has since performed in the fall production of “Twelve Angry Jurors,” the ballet “Coppelia,” and this November’s ballet production of “A Christmas Carol.”

Martina also is very involved in working with Pine Crest’s sister school Three Little Flowers, in Petit-Goave, Haiti. She is a member of Pine Crest’s Black Students’ Association, and she is an active member of the anti-bullying team “Words That Hurt,” a school-wide program coordinated by Pine Crest’s Diversity offi ce. Martina will study humanities and pre-med at Princeton University. To learn more about Pine Crest’s Upper School, go to: http://vimeo.com/channels/248920.

Sam NemiroffPine Crest Schoolwww.Pinecrest.edu

Something about the French horn “speaks” to senior Sam Nemiroff, who has

played the complex and often misunderstood instrument for almost nine years. Sam, who also plays trumpet, said he is much more comfortable with the French horn because the instrument demands a certain depth of musicality that is not always appreciated by the masses.

“It kind of defi nes what kind of musician I am and it is different from other brass instruments because there are nuances that make it so much more complex,” said Sam, a science scholar, musician, and classical music composer.

The “mellow” brass instrument suits Sam well, as he is placed among a select few in the country who have received the Young Fine Arts Merit Award, which measures mastery of musicianship at the Upper School level. Sam’s love for the musical arts is only one aspect of his focused School career. He also is a member of Pine Crest School’s award-winning Upper School Science Research Team. Sam recently was named a 2012 Intel Semi-fi nalist for his research entitled, “The Risk of Microbial Keratitis from Contaminated Eyewash Stations,” which was conducted at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute under the direction of Dr. Darlene Miller.

Sam’s research confi rmed the presence of the pathogens in two-thirds of the water he collected from laboratories along the East coast. He said he is very honored by the recognition he has received at Pine Crest School. Sam will major in molecular, cellular, and developmental biology (MCDB) at Yale University this fall.

“IN ITALY, THERE’S NO RUSHING. YOU EAT, DRINK AND

HOWEVER LONG IT TAKES, IT TAKES. THEY WILL KEEP THE

RESTAURANT OPEN UNTIL YOU ARE THROUGH.”

26 APRIL 2012 | LIFESTYLEMAGAZINEGROUP.COM


He’s gregarious, warm and funny. He’s kind and makes you feel connected to him instantly. A die-hard Florida Gator, an experienced deep sea fi sherman, a champion who is deeply committed to his causes, a vineyard owner and

a devoted parent. The word that resonates after our “get to know you” lunch is authentic. He is Paul Castronovo, host of syndicated radio’s Paul & Young Ron Show. Paul, along with “Young” Ron Brewer, has been on the air for more than twenty two-years in South Florida; the region’s longest-running radio show entertains and remains relevant to a generation of South Floridians and their children.

Back to authentic. We have all met and engaged with celebrities at one time or another. The experience can leave you feeling at a loss sometimes for your perception and the reality may not align. Paul is the bona fi de, genuine real deal. Interrupted throughout lunch by eager fans, phone calls and my prodding questions, he remained open, forthright and charming. So much of his life is and has been public on the air that you’d think at some point, he would just say enough! But, more pictures and invitations from fans and charities continue to fi ll his schedule and give him great joy.

Castronovo works constantly to maintain his edge and stay relevant. He shares his commitment to working harder has to be part of the reason all of the other shows that began at the time he started on terrestrial radio, are gone. Maintaining an edge on radio isn’t easy these days with satellite and Internet radio reaching listeners. But he shares “at the end of the day, with all the buttons in your car on the dashboard, people will still hit the local radio when they want to know what’s going on in the local market.”

Paul’s love of South Florida began at age eleven when he moved here from Long Island, NY. Now fi fty-two, he still loves the outdoors and all the area offers. When he’s not working, he’s fi shing, boating, cycling or just enjoying time with his family. He grew up surfi ng and enjoys watching his son surf the waters just as he did. He talks about one of his favorite athletes, Laird Hamilton, an American big-wave surfer, co-inventor of tow-in surfi ng, and shares that Hamilton is a “specimen” because he can run the beach carrying Palm trees in his hands. Paul’s excitement is contagious.

The Castronovo’s love to entertain. Great wine and food are always a big part of the experience. In fact, that's how his journey to vineyard owner began. He and Gina (his wife) were in Italy on vacation and met Eros Spinozzi, an Italian wine exporter while dining one evening. He then introduced

Castronovo to the Galasso family of the San Lorenzo winery. In what can only be explained as fate; when Paul was on his fl ight back to the US, he sat next to Bruce Hunter (President of Shaw-Ross wines) and they brokered a deal right then

and there. That was the beginning of the Castronovo Vineyards.

Paul mentioned “In Italy, there’s no rushing. You eat, drink and however long it takes, it takes. They will keep the restaurant open until you are through.” He loved the experience. And when he traveled to the San Lorenzo winery, the Galasso family had prepared platters of meats and treated Paul and Gina like royalty! At the end of their visit, the grandmother was clear when she spoke to him, “You bring our wine back to

America.” Thoughts of beginning Castronovo Vineyards entered Paul’s mind. And as fate would have it, in 2010, Montepulciano D'Abruzzo was introduced here in the United States. It’s the kind of wine that can be served with pasta, steak, pizza or even a spicy seafood dish. The second offering, the Castronovo Pecorino arriving on US soil now is the perfect wine for outdoor Florida summer cooking. You can serve it while on the boat (it won’t stain like red) and it goes well with Lobster on the grill, conch or Ceviche if you are entertaining by the pool.

A few things you may not know about our own hometown Castronovo. He’s a wonderful blues singer. He can do a fantastic ZZ Top Billy Gibbons and also Lynyrd Skynyrd vocals. He loves the more obscure tunes such as Gimme Back My Bullets. He watches Modern Family, Richard Lewis and Dom Irrera “destroy him by making him laugh” and is a big fan of the Sleep Number Bed. His biggest career moves were suggested by his wife and he’s lost eighty-nine pounds in eighteen months!

PLANNING ON HITTING THE COURT MORE OFTEN THIS SEASON? CHECK OUT OUR TOP 10 TENNIS TIPS FOR INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED PLAYERS FROM TENNIS PRO JOSE AYALA OF THE FRANK VELTRI TENNIS CENTER & CLUB.

If you’ve been hitting the tennis court lately but just can’t seem to get past the same errors you’ve been making against your opponents or are looking to improve your game, we’ve got good news for you: tennis pro Jose Ayala of the Frank Veltri Tennis Center & Club has the top 10 tips to help you improve your game and hopefully make your time on the court as enjoyable and rewarding as possible. Whether you are an intermediate player looking for new ways to advance or consider yourself a more experienced tennis pro, these tips can help you build more player confi dence and effectiveness on the court.

1 Always watch the ball. This means to keep it in your sight until the ball hits the strings.

2Move your feet. You’d be surprised at how many players lack movement after the ball

is hit.

3Recover after the shot. Try not to stare and admire the shot you just hit, move back

into position.

4Run every ball down. You’ll be shocked at how many shots you can get to if you

hustle all out.

5Focus on stroke technique. The best way to stay injury-free, and elevate your game to

the next level is by keeping good form.

6Use the right equipment for your game. Talk to a tennis professional about the right

racket, grip-size, and strings for your type of game.

7Play with a purpose. Always enter the court with a certain goal you are trying to

accomplish -- for example, keep the ball deep, come more to the net – it all depends on what you are working on to get better.

8Find a style of play that suits you and your abilities.

9 Stay focused and keep a positive attitude. Tennis is all about the attitude.

10 Have fun. Remember why you are on the tennis court. Enjoy yourself! If you are

on the court it has to be good!

You will also be able to cheer on the world’s athletes from the sidelines as they make their way through the city

during the triathlon, cycling and marathon events.

These exciting events are not just during the Olympics! Wimbledon brings the entertainment as well, as London celebrates ALL summer long! The London 2012 Festival, an extravaganza of music, theater, dance and fi lm, will run from June 21st to September 9th. More than 1,000 events are scheduled, featuring leading artists from across the globe, and many events will be free.

10WAYS TO CELEBRATE THE FOURTH OF JULYBY KEVIN LANE

37

6 BENJAMIN FRANKLINWho is the author of the Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin? Well, Benjamin Franklin, of

course… What better to appreciate the excitement and challenges of our country’s formative years than to read the autobiography of Benjamin Franklin! Although Franklin was born a little over 300 years ago, his life continues to be an inspiration and his advice is timeless. Wikipedia wrote that “…this work has become one of the most famous and infl uential examples of an autobiography ever written. Used paperback on Amazon start at a penny (a penny saved is a penny earned, mind you…) and via Kindle it’s free.

7 CITY OF PLANTATIONA really popular tradition is the Rick Case Automotive Group and the City of Plantation’s Independence

Day Celebration. It begins with the popular parade starting at 9:00 a.m. at the intersection of West Broward Boulevard and N.W. 46th Avenue. It heads west to N.W. 69th Avenue, turns left on N.W. 4th Street and ends at City Hall about 11:00 a.m. with awards.

through Town Center to the heart of Main Street. If you love a parade, then this one is for you! Participants include local businesses, civic groups, schools, bands, organization and residents. If you feel really energetic, there is a 5K run/walk starting at 7:00 .m. at Weston Town Center. Visit www.splitsecondtiming.com or call (954) 389-4321.

9 A CAPITAL FOURTHA Capital Fourth… is another great tradition, particularly for those who enjoy just staying home in the evening… You can tune into PBS Channel 2 to enjoy the fabulous and very patriotic concert and watching the “… best fi reworks of any celebration.” Touted as

“America’s Premier Birthday Party,” an audience favorite and a highlight of the evening is the rousing rendition of Tchaikovsky’s “1812 Overture” complete with live cannon fi re provided by the United States Army Presidential Salute Battery. The show, which starts at 8:00 p.m. will feature stunning visuals of the National Mall and the memorials and monuments representing the ideals underpinning our democracy. Some Fireworks Trivia… Did you know the fi reworks have names?? Here’s a few… Peony - the most common type of fi rework, the peony shell type is a spherical break of colored stars that burn without a tail effect; Chrysanthemum - a spherical break of colored stars, similar to a peony, but with stars that leave a visible trail of sparks; and Crossette a shell containing several large stars that travel a short distance before breaking apart into smaller stars, leaving a crisscross effect.

10 BARBECUE This doesn’t take a rocket scientist to fi gure out… We’re not sure if the family and friends Bar-B-Q is a tradition started by our Founding Fathers, but it sure is a great way to celebrate… and don’t forget the birthday cake for dessert!

IDENTITY THIEVES ARE OUT TO

STEAL YOUR LIFESTYLE THIS SUMMER

Identity thieves don’t take vacations; they wait for you to plan a trip and then act. It’s devious and unfortunately a proven winner. Why? Because it’s human nature

to relax while on vacation and forget about “reality.” Thieves know it and they thrive on it. So the question is how can you protect yourself while simultaneously enjoying your summer retreat?

START PREPARATIONS BEFORE YOU SET OUT ON YOUR ADVENTURE.

Contact your bank and credit card companies and inform them of your trip. Give them your destination and the length of your stay. They can then observe your account to verify if your cards are being used at another location. For example, John Stewart of Coral Springs never contacted his credit card company and he

paid the price. “To be honest, I wasn’t thinking about identity theft; I was thinking about getting away from the stress of work,” said John. “But when I got back from my vacation and received my credit card bill, I noticed an

additional $1,000 charged on my account. It happened so fast.”

Next, think about your home. All of your fi les and personal i n f o r m a t i o n should be concealed in a safe place. Ask your neighbors to pick up your mail or call the post offi ce and ask them to hold the mail while

you are away. If thieves are casing a neighborhood and see an overstuffed mailbox, you automatically become a target.

After that clean out your wallet or purse and bring only the essentials. Leave items such as your social security card and check book at home in a secure place. Bring two credit cards in case one gets lost or becomes inactivated.

If you have to bring an ATM card with

you, bring a pin-based card. If you don’t have one

then simply ask your bank for one.

Also, be very careful when choosing a location

to withdraw money out of a machine. Make certain it’s safe and the machine has not been tampered with in any manner. There are mechanisms such as skimming devices that thieves attach to ATM machines. These devices capture your personal information once you swipe your card. Check the machine carefully or ask a manager at the place you are staying for a trusted spot to withdraw money.

If you plan on taking your laptop don’t access personal accounts at the local coffee shop with internet capability. Most Wi-Fi hot spots don’t have security. The same goes for hotel computers or computers at internet cafés. Identity thieves use software such as keyloggers, which track your keystrokes and steal your personal information. Jan Archers can attest to it. “I was relaxing and checking my bank account at the local coffee shop,” said Jan. “I never thought someone could steal my account number so easily and drain my account. I was in shock.”

If you are staying in a hotel don’t leave any personal information out in the open. Lock it up in the safe. Also, make photocopies of all your key documents, such as your passport, plane tickets, hotel reservations and even your driver’s license and place them in the safe,

too. If your wallet or purse is stolen these photocopies

will provide the authorities with valuable information.

One other note of caution to the many social media users out there, don’t publicize your travel plans to all your friends and relatives on Facebook or Twitter. It’s careless. Even with all the online security settings and other safeguards in place. You’re just inviting trouble because you don’t really know who’s looking at your posts, especially with all the trolls snooping around; it’s an open invitation to rob your house.

Identity thieves quickly adapt and reinvent new ways to steal your personal information, your money and your lifestyle. They are diligent but these simple tips should make them look elsewhere for another victim. Just remember, be prepared, be careful and stay alert – then have fun.

you are away. If thieves are casing a neighborhood and see an overstuffed mailbox, you automatically become a target.

After that clean out your wallet or purse and bring only the essentials. Leave items such as your social security card and check book at home in a secure place. Bringtwo credit cards in case one gets lost or becomes inactivated.

How many children do you have? I have two children. Kara is 25 years old and is beautiful inside and out. She is following in my footsteps and is making a career here at Allied Kitchen & Bath. She is also studying Interior Design at Palm Beach State College and spends much of her free time coaching other young women and giving back to others within the community. Michael is 21 years old and just graduated from FSU with Bachelor Degrees in both Political Science and International Relations. I am so proud that he made the Dean’s List and plans on volunteering for the Peace Corps in the near future, as well as pursuing continued education and a career in International Relations.

Where do you work? I am President and Founder of Allied Kitchen & Bath.

What are your favorite hobbies? Traveling as often as possible, boating, scuba diving, kayaking, spending time at the beach, shopping and taking care of myself. I also love to spend time with my kids and family.

What would the perfect day spent with

your children include? We love traveling together. Different cities throughout the US and the islands, or even just spending the day exploring new places locally here in South Florida. We often just hop in the car and drive down to the Keys or over to Naples and

discover new places of interest. It’s funny how we all get along so well and even like the same types of food and love trying new restaurants that are unique or that we have never been to. What is your favorite date

night hotspot? I always love the Las Olas area and so many of our local restaurants here in Ft. Lauderdale such as The Capital Grille, So Litas and Casa D’Angelo, being a few of my favorites. But I also love heading down to Miami Beach, The Design District or Lincoln Road. It’s usually not the place but the people you’re with that make it special. I always love attending the local charity events around town with great friends and associates as well. How would you describe yourself in one

word? Passionate ......Very Passionate in everything I do. How do you stay involved in the

community? I am the president of the Oakland Park Wilton Manors Council and board of directors member of the Ft. Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce and Habitat for Humanity. I am very involved with many local charities and a past president of The South Florida Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I continuously help raise money and awareness for various charities by hosting and underwriting events several times a month at the Allied Kitchen & Bath Ft. Lauderdale showroom.

Where can

you be found on your

day/night off when you’re not with your

children? Hiding out in my condo near the beach or a weekend getaway at one of Ft. Lauderdale’s great hotels. What are you grateful for? I am so grateful and blessed to have my health, a very close family with three brothers and lots of friends, a great business celebrating our 28th year, and most importantly the ability to help others and always “pay it forward”. How do you juggle being a bachelor… and

a father? It’s actually much easier now that my children are older. I take it one day at a time though. I’m very involved in my children’s lives and I’m there for them for anything they need. The kids always come fi rst. I’m a 24/7 kind of guy, so whatever it takes is my attitude. I always have time to help my kids – listen and advise … especially when they want my advice !!!

How many children do you have? I have a daughter and a son. Joey Danielle, 6 years old, my little girl gets “it”. She has a wonderful sense of humor and is a natural nurturer. My favorite quality about her is her ability to point out the obvious (or not so obvious). Whether its a sunset, rainbow, butterfl y or cloud that looks like Mickey Mouse, she fi nds them. It’s a constant reminder of the simple things in life.

Justin Cooper, 2 years old, he’s my little spark plug. My little boy is fearless! He’ll probably end up being a stuntman. It’s hard to point out his special qualities since he’s 2, but he’s a curious little boy. I love watching him fi gure things out.

Where do you work? Investor and Consultant

What are your favorite hobbies?

Photography, snowboarding, scuba diving and live music. I love genealogy and have become my family’s historian because of it.

What would the perfect day spent with

your children include? I have two perfect days with my kids. Day 1 is Sunday. Every Sunday is arts and crafts in the morning or makeup time with daddy. Joey loves to paint my nails and put make up on my face. She thinks it’s hysterical. Then it’s swimming at noon and

snuggling for nap time on the couch. That’s my perfect day.

Day 2 is on the boat wakeboarding or water tubing. There’s nothing better than watching your kids conquer a fear, learn something new, and then excel at it. It’s an awesome experience!

What’s your favorite date night spot? Hard to say since I haven’t really dated anyone yet. If I had to pick something I’d say dinner at Himmarshee with some live music for dessert. How would you describe yourself in one

word? Content. How do you stay involved with your

community? My work allows me to be fl exible so I’m able to stay involved by playing an active role with my children’s schooling. I’m able to volunteer at least once a month or anytime their class needs an extra set of eyes. Where can you be found on your day/

night off when you’re not with your

children? If a favorite band of mine is in town I’ll probably be there otherwise it’s either dinner with friends or dressed down on the couch channel surfi ng. How much time do you spend with your

kids? You always hear about the dad that moves to another state, who barely sees

their kids, or some exaggerated nightmare. Folks rarely hear of the father who’s the primary caregiver. I spend as much time as possible with my children which for me equals about 3 weeks a month. The more time I’m able to spend with my children, the happier I am. How do you juggle being a bachelor… and

a father? First and foremost I’m a father so it hasn’t really been a juggling act. I made a conscience decision to not date until now. Divorce is rough and can be very confusing for any child regardless of age. I wanted my kids (and my step-children) to have a sense of security and stability during the adjustment. It’s my job as a parent to protect their innocence when the trials and tribulations of life creep up on them, especially at such an early age. I think I’ve done a pretty good job at that which is why I’m listening to friends and family to “put myself out there”. I do miss sharing my experiences with someone which I think is a sign to start the “juggling” act of bachelorhood again.

“Often, you never get a second chance to make a fi rst impression.” From TV commercials to the wisdom of our parents, the saying is timeless and true.

But while fi rst impressions come once, we have countless chances to improve – or ruin – the impression we’ve made with those around us.

It’s called “Reputation Management” – the process of cultivating our image. It can be as simple as the words we speak, the way we’re dressed, the advice we give, or even the way our Website, blog, Facebook or Twitter feed comes across.

Here are four ways to manage your reputation:

Beware the two sides of social media. In the Age of Social Media, we’re encouraged to be

ourselves. We speak openly about politics and societal issues, and comment on what others say or do. We’re emboldened because we’re “among friends.” But one bad posting or Tweet could harm your reputation overnight or get you trouble with boss. What if a tweet you posted was retweeted or posted to someone’s Website – and then found by Google? Would the comments cast you in an unfavorable light – among prospective clients or even employers (who increasingly are searching social media for cues and clues about job candidates)? Consider the case of the Miami Fire captain who posted a controversial opinion on the Trayvon Martin case on his Facebok page. His posting was picked up by another website and the next thing you know it was headline news in the mainstream media. He’s been accused publicly of being a racist and he’s in hot water with his bosses.

What’s the Website say? The Internet has become the power tool of reputation management. Make sure it’s speaking kindly about you. Post your skills and expertise. Include testimonials; nothing speaks to your reputation better than the words of satisfi ed

clients. Dress for success. If you’re in a

professional service business – an attorney, accountant, marketing executive or a physician – every time you step out of the house you may bump into someone new or come across an existing client. What does your attire say about you?

Dialing for impact. Experts say to “Speak with a smile in your voice.” When calling a client or prospect, speak as if you’re truly interested in talking to them. If you can’t, then don’t make the call.

Reputation management is not a once-and-done affair. It’s a process that needs daily attention to ensure that fi rst impression lasts forever!

THE NON-SURGICAL EYE LIFT, NECK LIFT, WRINKLES AND SKIN LAXITY REVISION!

This new procedure can be used to diminish and erase:

Pellevé is the long-awaited solution! In one short, easy, very comfortable treatment, you can experience a marked improvement in the appearance of fi ne lines, skin tightening and wrinkles for up to six months! We are seeing wonderful results in as few as 1-4 treatments.

The technology of the Pellevé system sets it apart from other wrinkle-reducing treatments. When you are treated with Pellevé, a more focused Radio Frequency energy is delivered to areas of the skin where elasticity is lacking and lines have begun to develop. This energy heats the skin, causing it to begin producing collagen. Collagen is a key component in healthy, toned-looking skin.

It delivers heat to deep layers of the skin where fat resides. This “controlled focused energy” spurs the contraction of these deep tissues for an overall smoothing effect.

The heat energy also stimulates the production of new collagen over time, resulting in fi rmer, tighter, smoother skin. The practitioner adjusts the strength of the delivered energy based on feedback from the patient throughout the session.

The Pellevé system requires no anesthesia and treatment can be conducted in as little as 15 minutes per area. We simply, apply a thin layer

of gel to your face prior to treatment. Most patients experience only a warming sensation on the skin when the Pellevé hand piece is applied.

Patients often report that immediately after treatment skin feels tighter similar to Botox. When it takes effect, most patients often experience immediate results, and a reduction in the visibility of wrinkles at the treatment sites. Over the course of the next six months, you will continue to see smoother, more beautiful skin.

While many patients see results after just one session of Pellevé, we may recommend multiple treatments to help you achieve your optimal aesthetic goals. The total number of treatments can vary and is based on your individual skin needs. It takes up to two months for the full effects of Pellevé to be seen.

There is no downtime or side effects except the ocassional very mild swelling or redness which normally resides in an hour.

Developed for the sophisticated, discriminating fi ne-diner, NYY Steak delivers an extraordinary and entertaining experience from the moment you enter the restaurant. The concept of NYY Steak was founded in The Bronx, New York in the spring of 2009 as the premier fi ne dining destination of the New Yankee Stadium, in its inaugural season. The concept was established as a joint venture between the New York Yankees and Seminole Gaming Entertainment. The Yankees are the premiere sports franchise in the world and hold a record 27 world baseball championships; The Seminole tribe is America’s only unconquered tribe. NYY Steak is fashioned after Seminole Gaming’s award winning Council Oak Steaks & Seafood restaurants in their casinos in Tampa and Hollywood, Florida.

The walk from the north entrance of the Seminole Coconut Creek Casino into the front of the restaurant was designed to transport you to the entry way of Yankee Stadium. The thought and design that went into creating the visual was absolutely inventive. A New York Yankee true encounter here in Broward County.

The entrance once inside is understated. The cocktail lounge is modern, inviting and leads you to the hostess area where a glass butcher shop and knife wall are featured. As a purveyor of U.S.D.A. Prime 21 to 28 day dry-aged beef, NYY serves steaks, chops, prime-rib, chicken, fresh seafood and shellfi sh offerings of shrimp, crab, oysters, clams, lobsters and fi n fi sh.

Once inside, dark woods, classic booth and table settings create an ambiance that is comfortable and clubby without being intimidating. The open glass kitchen allows you to enjoy a view of the various chefs creating the seasoned tastes for

the evening. Chef William Phillips takes great pride in the choices displayed in the glass butcher shop. He is now the restaurant chef creating the menu locally beginning in February when the establishment opened. Your eyes can also encounter the pastry chef, Mark Weideman creating desserts that will entice your sweet need and excite your palate. There is a beautiful glass view into the wine cellar that will inspire

you to review their fi nest wine offerings. And, the infamous Yankee Signature Walls and classic Yankee images throughout can maintain one’s attention and encourage storytelling all evening.

We are greeted by Petrus Louis Turcano, the general manager from Romania and our sommelier along with Earl, our server who knows the history about the joint venture and all things NYY Steak. Both are genuine in their approach and immediately share what’s top on the menu to enjoy and pair. He mentions the New Zealand Lamb, domestic and dry-aged rubbed with roasted garlic herbs and sea salt placed on a tomato risotto with fresh mint leaves. Already we lean forward with interest.

“Leave room for the fl aming volcano,” Earl states. “You absolutely must taste it…it’s covered in heath crunch and 151 proof Rum is poured on top.” I am now focused on having dessert fi rst of course!

NYY SteakDELIVERS SEASONED TASTES IN A CHAMPIONSHIP ATMOSPHEREBY RANDI PRESS


LOBSTER GRILLED CHEESE AND TOMATO SOUP

The experience becomes more nostalgic when your plate is set. The Yankees have retired fi fteen numbers for sixteen players, the most in Major League Baseball. Each dinner plate at NYY Steak has a retired number on it.

And the tasting begins.A basket of pretzel bread with

white cheddar cheese and whole grain mustard, asiago crisps and cinnamon with sugar signature crisps accompanied by salted butter is placed on the table. Delicious! Tuna tartar, beef (sirloin) carpaccio, oyster rockefeller with sambuca are placed in the middle of the table. My mouth watering and eyes dancing found my two favorites quickly. Colossal stuffed barbeque shrimp wrapped in bacon placed over cilantro popcorn blended with strips of bacon will give your taste buds a fantastic, tangy experience while the scallops with blackberry reduction are crispy on top and melt like butter in your mouth. My two favorites will become your “must haves!” But, if you are a beef carpaccio fan, the seracha (Vietnamese hot sauce) served razor thin with toast points will kick your heartbeat up a pace!

There are several salads that are wonderful but don’t miss the head of baby iceberg served with crumbled blue cheese, bacon and French dressing accompanied by a shot of a vodka martini marinated blue cheese stuffed olive.

Entrees included twin South African lobster tails broiled with lemon butter, Chilean sea bass with a red wine reduction garnished with micro greens that was crispy on the outside and fl aky on the inside served over a wonderful risotto. The dry-aged twenty one to twenty eight day, twenty ounce center cut NY strip almost looks like a fi let. It’s fl avorful,

tender, charred and buttery. But, this can’t rival the “unsurpassed” winner of the evening, the long bone cowboy Ribeye “branded” with your initials in the bone. Crispy on the outside, tender, juicy on the inside it is the signature steak to experience. Coated in peanut oil, the chef explains they do not trim this at all therefore the fl avor remains…and it is beyond words. But don’t take my word for it, taste it for yourself!

The sides accompanying the entrees are worthy of tasting. The corn is fi re roasted with fresh bacon, sweet cream and herbs. The mushroom buttons are touched with olive oil, garlic and rosemary herbs. And the creamed spinach is combined with shallots and lemon pepper. All the sides are full of fl avor and are enough to share.

Remember I mentioned the fl aming volcano for dessert? This is a show and is worth tasting. If you want something more all-American, try the over-sized chocolate chip cookies fi lled with vanilla ice cream accompanied with fudge on the plate, sprinkles, raspberry garnished and touched with fresh whipped cream. It’s a mixture of everything wonderful. Don’t hesitate to order the chocolate blackout cake if you are a chocolate lover. This is sinful and enough to take home for a mid-night treat!

I don’t want to leave you without sharing two fantastic options from the lounge menu. They can be ordered for dinner, but they are not featured on the menu. The lobster sandwich is crisp on the outside and fi lled with chunks of lobster served with tomato soup. It is fantastic! The NY aged steak sandwich with fries is served with balsamic ketchup. It is my new favorite condiment! This is great to share even as an appetizer.

The experience at NYY Steak will be a treat whether you are a Yankee fan or fancy other sports. The chef’s are approachable, the wait staff are impeccable and the cool vibe will make the experience worthy of more than one visit.

BY BRUCE TURKEL

AND another thing...

EYES AND EARS ARE EVERYWHERE

Buck’s Restaurant in Woodside, California, is ground zero for venture capitalists that invest in technology. I’m in town to give a presentation in Silicon Valley and stopped by this diner to eat breakfast and drink in some of the local culture.

Like lots of small, family-owned breakfast spots, Buck’s has a vast collection of local memorabilia hanging on the wall. Except where you might expect display cases of trout fl ies or Harley Davidson parts, Buck’s walls are festooned with silicon chips and tech discoveries.

The people look different here, too. Most are young men, conscientiously scruffy in their North Face fl eece vests and expensive Italian eyeglasses. The few women who are here are also young and fresh-faced, and look like they just strolled off a ski slope.

Almost everyone is on their smartphone or tablet. Those who aren’t are sharing a presentation on their MacBook Pros. And everyone’s talking pretty loudly. But unlike coffee shops in New York, where everyone talks about fi nancial schemes, or restaurants in LA where the chatter is all about “the biz” (movies and entertainment), the talk here is all tech-related “speeds and feeds.”

The couple in the booth next to me is a perfect example. The guy is in his late 30s, studiously underdressed with a severe case of bed head. His date, a bubbly blond in her 20s, is hanging on his every word and expressing her interest with staccato outbursts of self-conscious laughter.

What caught my attention were the words he was using to keep her attention. Instead of the bon mots of typical seduction, his romancing was peppered with terms such as “milestone-based,” “seed relationships,” “mobile solutions,” “platforms,” and “self-partnering.” I’m not sure all of these are even real tech terms but she kept giggling appreciatively so his rap must have been working.

The other thing he was doing to impress her was listing the various companies his venture fi rm has invested in. And here’s where it gets interesting: The logo embroidered on his jacket read “Azure Capital” and he was talking about one of their larger investments, an online video site called “TwitVid.” So with a few stabs on my web-enabled iPad we pulled up his company’s site and found his name and CV. His headshot confi rmed that the guy on the screen and the guy on the make were the same.

Are you following what just happened?

Talk about loose lips sinking ships. Thanks to ubiquitous Internet information and a loud-mouthed Lothario, we were able to trace and substantiate an overheard rumor with real market confi rmation. If I was a reporter, a competitor or a corporate spy looking for info, imagine what could have happened.

If there were something in it for me or for my clients, I could have tweeted the information he discussed immediately or posted it online. Either way, it’s possible that his partners or his competition could have read about him and his secrets before he even got back to the offi ce from breakfast. And with info aggregator sites such as TechCrunch and Mashable acting more and more like scandal site TMZ and actively scouring the web for up-to-the-minute scoops, the info about Azure and TwitVid could’ve been worldwide before lunch. Luckily for my new friend, I have no interest in his business nor in publicly embarrassing him.

But all of a sudden, people everywhere are armed with digital cameras and web-enabled devices that turn them into 24/7 Internet paparazzi and the worlds of business, news, and politics will never be the same. Gary Hart, Donna Rice and the Real Monkey Business were only the beginning. Soon television reality shows and whole Internet channels will be dedicated to unscripted, caught-in-the-act user-generated “gotcha” videos.

This revelation suggests that not only should people be more circumspect about what they say and where they say it, but that new chances will continue to pop up for rumor-based marketing opportunities. Also, that formerly no-brainer branding vehicles such as logo-ed shirts and caps and vanity license plates should now be used judiciously because of their ability to give the cyber sleuth a quick and easy way to start their search. After all, most of us have secrets and skeletons we’d rather keep hidden in the closet. And today’s technology is going to make that harder and harder.
