with top creations, with guests voting for 

their favorites.

Savor the Avenue, a signature Delray 

Beach event featuring tables stretching for 

five blocks along Atlantic Avenue. 

A participating restaurant in Savor the 

Avenue since it began, Caffe Luna Rosa will 

host 110 guests at its 18 tables, all of which 

will be decorated in a “White Party” theme. 

Servers will be dressed entirely in white as 

will the guests.

One of more than a dozen local 

restaurants participating in 

the March 27 event, Caffe Luna 

Rosa will also be offering its 

guests an exquisite meal prepared 

under the watchful eye 

of Chef Ernesto DeBlasi. 

Already sold out, Caffe Luna 

Rosa’s 18 tables at Savor the 

Avenue are the most of any 

participating restaurant. In 

addition, Caffe Luna Rosa 

will once again have a “Cool 

Lounge” set up next to the table, 

where guests can chill out 

and share a drink.

HELLO MIMI 

POSH properties 

By mary timmons 

My name is Mary Timmons and I attended 

UCLA and graduated from 

Pennsylvania State University. I have 

been a homeowner in East Delray Beach for 

11 years. My original line of work was promoting 

rock stars as Director of Publicity 

with Atlantic Records and then, as Executive 

Director at The Townwide Fund of Huntington, 

where I raised tens of thousands of dollars 

for Long Island Charities. My passion for 

the last 5 years has been caring for pets, although 

I do have lifelong experience in caring 

for family and friends’ pets and that is why I 

started Hello Mimi. I have 2 cats of my own 

that I adore, Kitty and Jilly. I offer an honest 

and reliable overnight pet care/sitting in the 

comfort and privacy of the pets’ home and 

backyard. I also love to play tennis which I 

am currently teaching to my great nieces and 

nephews. I love to cook and entertain for my 

large family as well as my dear friends here 

in the Delray area. (5* review from my 4 year 

old great nephew, Vincent, “good noodles 

Mimi!”) I am truly living the dream by the sea 

with my family and pets beside me!

{ 

Now that Delray Beach is a rising star in the art, culture and social 

scene, it might seem a little difficult to find affordable activities, shops 

or restaurants. I am here to prove you wrong. Delray Beach offers a mix 

of high-end boutiques with laid-back restaurants, and events for the 

whole family or nightclubs for night owls. Here is what you can do in 

Delray Beach in March for $50 or less. 

Grab your favorite friend and your 

best green shirt because it’s time 

to party. St. Patrick’s Day is held 

on March 17 each year because that is the 

traditional death date of Saint Patrick, the 

foremost patron saint of Ireland. It is also 

a day to celebrate the culture and heritage 

of the Irish in general, and everyone’s invited 

to join in on the fun. The 49th Annual 

St. Patrick’s Day Festival and Parade is a 

two-day Celtic Siamsa Party featuring Irish 

dancing, traditional pipe and drum bands, 

food, beer and live music. The fun kicks off 

Friday, March 10 from 5 to 10 p.m. with 

the festival of all things Irish. The festival 

continues Saturday, March 11 at 11 a.m. 

and the parade gets going at 12 p.m., so 

make sure to grab a good seat and enjoy 

the gallivanting. The partying will continue 

until 7 p.m. with live music, food and fun 

the whole way through. This is one of the 

largest St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in the 

nation and it pays tribute to the brave firefighters 

around the world. The St. Patrick’s 

Day Festival and Parade events are held at 

Old School Square, 51 N. Swinton Ave., and 

the parade runs from A1A to West Fifth 

Avenue. Visit www.stpatrickparade.com or 

call (561) 990-6125 for more information. 

There’s only one thing better than 

brunching, and that’s brunching on a 

boat. Nothing screams the weekend 

like cruisin’ the Intracoastal with the wind 

through your hair and the sun on your skin, 

especially when you have your brunch 

plate in hand. March is International Ideas 

Month so let’s embrace this great idea and 

get nautical. The Delray Yacht Cruises offer 

brunch cruises every Sunday in March, 

so gather the crew and jump aboard. The 

brunch offers assorted breakfast breads, 

fresh seasonal fruit, vegetable and 

cheese frittata, cinnamon French toast 

with syrup, breakfast sausage 

links, home-fried potatoes 

with caramelized onions, 

cheese tortellini with pesto 

cream sauce, home glazed 

spiral ham, and hot coffee, tea, juice. 

You can’t have brunch without mimosas 

or Bloody Mary’s, and you’re in luck because 

there’s a full, cash bar aboard. 

This brunch cruise might be 

one of your best ideas yet! 

Cruises leave from Veteran’s 

Park at 10:30 a.m. 

and last a little longer 

than two hours, which is 

enough time to go HAM 

for some ham. Tickets are 

$46 per person and $36 for 

children aged 12 or younger. 

Veteran’s Park is located at 801 

E. Atlantic Ave. Visit www.delraybeachcruises.com 

or call (561) 

243-0686 for more information and 

to purchase tickets. 

If stick figures were a hot ticket item, I’d 

be able to quit my day job and be the 

famous starving artists I’ve always daydreamed 

about. Until that day, I will have 

to resign my artistic abilities to artfully 

looking at and appreciating other 

artists’ work. Thankfully there’s 


an art show right in our backyard every weekend this month! 

March is National Craft Month and the Delray Art League 

brings us Artists in the Park for our browsing pleasure. Held 

10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. every Saturday and Sunday (weather permitting), 

the art show features original work from locals artists 

in the South Florida area. There are a myriad of different 

mediums, styles and techniques, so you are sure to find something 

you like, or at least catch the craft bug and make a new 

piece for yourself. Artists in the Park is held at Veteran’s Park 

and admission is free, so take a minute to browse through 

while you enjoy your morning coffee or after you’re done 

brunching on the Avenue. The weather is gorgeous, the artists 

friendly, and the mood is festive, so enjoy your time outside 

among beauty. Veteran’s Park is located at 801 E. Atlantic Ave. 

Visit www.delrayartleague.com for more information. 

To speak to what makes someone laugh and actually deliver 

a witty or dry or crass punchline is something of a 

talent. Not everyone has it, and it sure is funny to watch 

it in action. March is Humorists Are Artists Month and is the 

perfect time to catch up on some belly laughs from professionals. 

The Crest Theater and Catch a Rising Star Comedy present 

award-winning musical comedienne, Angela LaGreca, and 

stand-up comedian, Dick Capri, for your laughing pleasure. 

LaGreca has performed everywhere from Caroline’s Comedy 

Club to Carnegie Hall, and is the recipient of six MAC Awards 

(New York City’s “Oscar” for live performance) and a Backstage 

Bistro Award, in addition to appearing on popular TV 

programs and shows. Capri got his start in the Catskills and 

is known for making the talk show circuit rounds. He is best 

recognized for his Friar Roast of Jerry Stiller, and has opened 

for many musical performers like Engelbert Humperdinck, 

Liza Minnelli, Frank Sinatra and more. The event is held at the 

Crest Theatre, 51 N. Swinton Ave., on March 10 at 8 p.m. Tickets 

start at $47 per person so be sure to get your tickets early 

before the fun is sold out. Visit www.oldschoolsquare.org or 

call (561) 243-7922 for more information. 

If you envision it, it will come. Positive thinking, people! 

March is International Expect Success Month and is a good 

time to focus on what success means to you and how to 

achieve it. Thankfully, you don’t have to do it alone. The Delray 

Beach Public Library is hosting a Mindfulness Matters: Habits 

for Cultivating Strengths, Courage and Resilience series, 

and the goal is to strengthen your body, stabilize your mind, 

open your heart and cultivate a spiritual life. The four-week 

course will offer participants strategies for physical wellness 

that provide increased energy, improved memory and greater 

restfulness during sleep, as well as gaining skills for calming 

the impulsive thinking that frustrates living full fully in the 

present. You will also recognize elements of emotional intelligence, 

increase awareness of emotions and their origins and 

purpose, in addition to developing compassion, patience and 

tolerance from a personal perspective. All in all, you’ll take a 

deeper look into yourself and learn a few tips and strategies 

that will help you to be successful in several aspects of your 

life. The class is $50 for all four session and the first class is 

Wednesday, March 29 at 6 p.m. The Delray Beach Public Library 

is located at 100 W. Atlantic Ave. Visit www.delraylibrary.org 

or call (561) 266-0194.

became skilled practitioners, 

but also educators and trailblazers, 

paving the way for future 

physicians, surgeons, and 

nurses and opening doors to 

better health care for African 

American communities. Spady

Gotta See 

Emma Watson 

“Beauty AND 

THE BEAST” 

March 3 

Last call for Hugh Jackman as Wolverine! 

Jackman swears “Logan” will be his 

last stint as the mutton-chopped superhero 

with blades in his fingers. Patrick 

Stewart is back as Charles Xavier, aka 

Professor X. Boyd Holbrook plays the 

new bad guy. James Mangold is back as 

director, perhaps for the last time. 

Does God live in “The Shack?” Sam 

Worthington stars as Mack Phillips, 

who falls into a deep depression after 

the abduction and presumed murder of 

his daughter Missy. Mack gets a mysterious 

note directing him to an abandoned 

shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. 

There he meets a trio of strangers led by 

a woman who calls herself Papa (Octavia 

Spencer). Radha Mitchell and Alice 

Braga co-star. The script is based on 

William Paul Young’s novel. 

“Before I Fall” is one of those teenage 

high school girlfriend films starring 

Zoey Deutch as Samantha Kingston, who 

seems to have everything going for her 

until everything crashes. Supporting 

cast includes Jennifer Beals, Halston 

Young, Logan Miller and Kian Lawley. Ry 

Russo-Young (“Nobody Walks”) directs 

a script based on Lauren Oliver’s novel. 

We haven’t seen Shirley MacLaine in 

a lead role in quite a while. She has one 

in “The Last Word,” where she plays a 

retired businesswoman who wants to 

control everything in her life, including 

her obituary. Amanda Seyfried plays 

a young writer at a local paper who 

tries to get to the unvarnished truth of 

Shirley’s character. Anne Heche, Philip 

Baker Hall, Thomas Sadowski and Tom 

Everett co-star. Mark Pellington (“I Melt 

With You”) directs. 

“Table 19” is in simple terms Siberia. 

That’s where Eloise (Anna Kendrick) 

is assigned after being dumped as the 

Best Maid of her oldest, best friend. Eloise 

was supposed to be Maid of Honor 

at the wedding, but she is stuck with a 

bunch of losers at the dreaded table 19. 

However Eloise learns some valuable 

lessons. Jeffry Blitz (“Rocket Science”) 

directs a script by Jay and Mark Duplass 

(“Transparent”). 


It seems the fascination with the giant 

ape never ends. “Kong: Skull Island” is 

the latest incarnation of the giant simian 

that began in 1933. Once again blundering 

humans blunder into the territory of 

the might Kong in the far Pacific (actually 

Hawaii). Tom Hiddleston, Brie Larson, 

John Goodman and Jason Mitchell star. 

Jordan Vogt-Roberts (“The Kings 

of Summer”) directs. If that’s 

not enough Kong for you, 

we are told “Godzilla versus 

Kong” is scheduled 

for 2020. 


Another perennial is 

“Beauty and the Beast.” 

Walt Disney presents a 

live action version of its 

1991 animated hit, with 

Emma Watson as Belle, 

the Beauty and Dan Stevens 

as the Beast who 

is really an enchanted 

Prince. Emma Thompson 

is Mrs. Potts, Kevin Kline 

is Maurice, and Josh Gad is Le Fou. Bill 

Conlon (“Mr. Holmes”) directs. 


Two words: Power Rangers. For 20 

years the animated Power Rangers 

brand has been generating television 

and ancillary profits for its creators. 

Now we have “Power Rangers: The 

Movie,” a live action movie about five 

High School kids who try to save their 

town of Angel Grove - and the world - 

from alien attack. Elizabeth Banks stars 

as Rita Repulsa, head alien bad girl. 

Weta Workshop is in charge of costume 

design. This is just the beginning if this 

movie is a success. 

Saddle up Ponch, let’s ride. “Chips” is 

based on the popular TV show that ran 

from 1977 to 1983. The movie version 

stars Dax Shepard, who also directs, as 

seasoned biker Jon Baker. Michael Pena 

is his new California Highway Patrol 

recruit, Frank “Ponch” Poncherella. Vincent 

D’Onofrio plays the bad guy who 

steals exotic cars. Adam Brody, Rose 

Salazar and Kristen Bell are also cast. 

“Life” is a rather vague title, but in 

this case it is a science fiction yarn about 

a six-member International Space Station 

crew that finds the first evidence of 

extraterrestrial life on the planet Mars. 

The space cadets include Ryan Reynolds, 

Jake Gyllenhaal, Rebecca Ferguson, 

Olga Dihovichnaya, Anyon Blake and Hiroyuki 

Sanada. Daniel Espinoza (“Easy 

Money”) directs. 


“The Boss Baby” is not about the 

President of the USA. This animated film 

is about a baby boy who takes over the 

life of his older brother Tim, voiced by 

Alec Baldwin. The older Tim is voiced 

by Patton Oswalt. Other voices are provided 

by Steve Buscemi, Lisa Kudrow, 

Jimmy Kimmel and Viviann Yee. Tom 

McGrath (“Megamind”) directs. 

“Ghost in the Shell” is based on a 

1989 Japanese comic book by Masamune 

Shirow, which may be all you need 

to know, except that Scarlett Johansson 

stars in it. Other characters are played 

by Juliette Binoche, Pilou Asbaek, Michael 

Pitt, Takeshi Kitano and Kaori Momoi. 

Rupert Sanders (“Snow White and 

the Huntsman”) directs.

Gotta Read 

By LISA MARIE 

Etched in Bone 

by Anne Bishop 

Released March 7, 2017 

New York Times bestselling author 

Anne Bishop returns to her world of 

the Others, as humans struggle to survive 

in the shadow of shapeshifters 

and vampires far more powerful than 

themselves... 

After a human uprising was brutally 

put down by the Elders—a 

primitive and lethal form of the Others—the 

few cities left under human 

control are far-flung. And the people 

within them now know to fear the noman’s-land 

beyond their borders— 

and the darkness... 

As some communities struggle to rebuild, 

Lakeside Courtyard has emerged 

relatively unscathed, though Simon 

Wolfgard, its wolf shifter leader, and 

blood prophet Meg Corbyn must work 

with the human pack to maintain the 

fragile peace. But all their efforts are 

threatened when Lieutenant Montgomery’s 

shady brother arrives, looking 

for a free ride and easy pickings. 

With the humans on guard against 

one of their own, tensions rise, drawing 

the attention of the Elders, who 

are curious about the effect such an 

insignificant predator can have on a 

pack. But Meg knows the dangers, for 

she has seen in the cards how it will 

all end—with her standing beside a 

grave... 

Informed Risk 

by Robyn Carr 


Mike Cavanaugh 

was a firefighter; 

it was his job to 

rescue people. 

Though inviting 

them home 

wasn’t usually 

part of the job 

description. But 

when he pulled 

Christine Palmer out of 

her burning house, something about 

the gutsy single mom made him want 

to protect her, to make her life a little 

better. Only somehow Chris and her 

family ended up giving Mike’s life 

new meaning, and he was happier 

than he’d been in years. 

But Chris was smart and resourceful. 

She’d get back on her own two 

feet—sooner rather than later. And 

when she no longer needed Mike’s 

support, would she still want his love?

in Maura Donovan’s 

small village 

in County 

Cork, Ireland, 

so she wasn’t 

sure what to 

expect when a 

major snowstorm 

rolled 

in around Sullivan’s 

pub. But now she’s stranded in 

a bar full of patrons--and a suspected 

killer in a long-ago murder. 

Maura’s been in Ireland less than 

a year and hasn’t heard about the 

decades-old unsolved crime that took 

place nearby, let alone the infamous 

suspect, Diane Caldwell. But the locals 

have, and they’re not happy to be 

trapped with her. Diane, meanwhile, 

seeks to set the record straight, asserting 

her innocence after all this time. 

And since no one is going anywhere in 

the storm, Maura encourages Diane to 

share her side of the story, which she’d 

never had a chance to do in court. 

Over the next few hours, the informal 

court in Sullivan’s reviews the 

facts and theories about the case--and 

comes to some surprising conclusions. 

But is it enough to convince the police 

to take a new look at an old case? A 

clever spin on the classic locked room 

mystery, Cruel Winter, the fifth in New 

York Times bestselling author Sheila 

Connolly’s series, will delight fans of 

the Emerald Isle.

The ghosts of a 1925 multiple murder 

stalk Doc Ford, in the electrifying 

new novel in the New York Times– 

bestselling series. 

Doc Ford has been involved in many 

strange cases. This may be one of the 

strangest. 

A legendary charter captain and 

guide named Tootsie Barlow has come 

to him, muttering about a curse. The 

members of his extended family have 

suffered a bizarre series of attacks, and 

Barlow is convinced it has something to 

do with a multiple murder in 1925, in 

which his family had a shameful part. 

Ford doesn’t believe in curses, but 

as he and his friend Tomlinson begin 

to investigate, following the trail of the 

attacks from Key Largo to Tallahassee, 

they, too, suffer a series of near-fatal 

mishaps. Is it really a curse? Or just a 

crime spree? The answer lies in solving 

a near-hundred-year-old murder . 

. . and probing the mind of a madman.

In just a little over a decade, the Boca Raton Concours D’Elegance has 

emerged as one of the most prestigious car shows in America. The setting 

helps. The elegant Boca Raton Resort and Club opens its gates to nonmembers 

for the main car show, held on Sunday, February 12th on the 

southern fairways of the club’s golf course.

2012 Oscar Meyer Wienermobile 

The principal hosts are Rita and Rick 

Case, owners of one of South Florida’s 

largest car dealerships. The event benefits 

the Boys and Girls Clubs of Broward County. 

Nearly $10 million has been raised so 

far, making the Boca Raton event the fastest 

growing in the nation. 

More than 200 museum quality vehicles 

were on display, including a separate display 

of vintage motorcycles. This year’s 

show celebrated the marques of Auburn, 

Cord and Duesenberg. Even when they 


were new, the A-C-D cars were among the 

most expensive in the country. Now they 

are worth in the millions. 

Cars remain an American obsession. 

The Concours D’Elegance gives ordinary 

folks a chance to see the “crème de 

la crème” of motor vehicles. But there 

are other more ordinary cars, such as 

the Ford Model T. This year’s show even 

had an Oscar Mayer “Wienermobile.” The 

weekend’s festivities began with the du- 

Pont Registry Live Hangar Party at Atlantic 

Aviation at the Boca Raton Airport. 

The Hangar Party offered guests a chance 

to experience select tastings from more 

than 20 of South Florida’s finest restaurants 

and peruse a display of exotic cars, 

custom motorcycles, extravagant boats, 

private jets, luxury motorcoaches, premier 

vendors and more. The event continued 

with a Saturday dinner with entertainment 

by comedian Jeff Foxworthy. 

Plan ahead for next year. For more information,

Sunshine 

Music Festival 

Bigger and 

Better in its 

Fifth Year 

By skip SHEFFIELD 

PHOTOS by tom craig 

Now in its fifth year, the Sunshine Music 

Festival has proved a January destination 

for music lovers in Boca Raton and all points 

north and south. 

As always the show was anchored by the 

Tedeschi Trucks Band, featuring singer guitarist-composer 

Susan Tedeschi and slide 

guitarist extraordinaire Derek Trucks. Capping 

the Tedeschi Trucks finale set was a 

guest appearance by Dave Mason, who had 

thrilled earlier with his razor-sharp guitar 

licks and his still-youthful singing voice. Everyone 

sang along on Mason’s best-known 

song, “Feelin’ All Right.” 

After a noon opening set with Greyhounds, 

North Mississippi All-Stars got things moving 

with a blues-heavy set. The group is just 

a trio, but all three sing. Brothers Luther 

(guitar) and Cody Dickinson (drums) anchor 

the group with the outstanding addition of 

Danielle Nicole Schnebeler on vocals and 

left-handed bass. 

“It’s nice to be anywhere,” declared veteran 

singer-songwriter guitarist Dave Mason, 

late of Traffic and sideman to the stars (he 

was best friends with Jimi Hendrix) before 

embarking on a solo career. Mason performed 

his greatest hits, including “We Just 

Disagree,” and a tribute to Hendrix with “All 

Along the Watchtower.” 

Fans of the Grateful Dead got to dance 

freeform with Joe Russo’s Almost Dead. 

One of the biggest treats was a set with 

Mavis Staples of the famed Staples Singers. 

After singing “Respect Yourself,” Mavis, 

77 and still going strong, performed a song 

written by her father; “I Won’t Turn Around.” 

Bruce Hornsby had a grand piano on 

stage, but he often gave up the spotlight to 

his skilled sidemen, and he even played a 

little dulcimer. 

Sunshine Music Festival has become so 

popular it becomes filled to capacity. Producers 

Live Nation added increased security 

barriers and fences to keep things under 

control. No doubt there will be a sixth 

edition next year. It is advisable to book 

tickets early.

Tennis Injuries: 

Cutting Edge Treatments and Prevention Strategies 

By Dr. John Conde 

Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is by far one of the most 

prevalent injuries in tennis. It is caused by the micro-tearing 

of the extensor group muscles of the elbow. These muscles are 

located on the thumb side of the elbow and allow us to bring our 

wrist back and side to side. 


Scar tissue can form in the muscle belly 

which can compress important nerves and 

blood vessels. It typically occurs secondarily 

to the use of an aluminum racquet, incorrect 

grip measurement, improper backhand 

technique, excess weight of the racquet, and 

due to too much tension in the strings. 

Rotator cuff tendonitis is also caused 

by micro-tearing in the belly of the muscle. 

The muscles involved are the rotator cuff 

muscles of the shoulder which originate in 

the shoulder blade (scapula) and attach to 

the upper arm (humerus). Typically we see 

this occur with players who serve with an 

elbow to side angle of less than 90 degrees. 

Due to the improper mechanics of the 

serve it typically also requires the player to 

serve repeatedly. 

A byproduct of the constant running 

and cutting in tennis is anterior (front) 

knee pain located deep, beneath the knee 

cap (patella). The patella fails to track or 

move correctly within the knee resulting 

in frictional forces applied to the lower femur 

bone and subsequent braking off of 

small pieces of cartilage. This can lead to 

a condition called chondromalacia patella. 

Pain is usually experienced when 

going up stairs and stopping abruptly 

while running. 

The primary goals in treating these disorders 

are to reduce inflammation, break 

up the fibrotic adhesions (scar tissue), 

strengthen surrounding musculature and 

neurological pathways, and restore proper 

joint motion. This entails some simple 

procedures including myofascial release, 

passive and active mobilization, isometric 

and isotonic strengthening, and joint 

manipulation (adjustment). New cutting 

edge procedures involve the use of high 

power class IV lasers which accelerate 

tissue healing by nearly tenfold and the 

use of mirrors in a technique termed mirror 

imaging technique which attempts 

to strengthen the neurological and immune 

pathways in the affected limb. In 

addition, cross cord applications and eccentric 

fast stretching are novel procedures 

which decrease the healing time. 

In terms of nutrition, supplementing 

with proteolytic enzymes and essential 

fatty acids will help to reduce inflammation 

and break down scar tissue. Sticking 

to an anti-inflammatory, low glycemic index 

diet will also help to reduce inflammation 

and insulin surges which can promote 

neurological degeneration 

Lastly, prevention is the key to avoiding 

injury all together. Here are some key 

tips to increase your longevity and 

effectiveness on the court: 

1. Utilize a ceramic or 

graphite racquet with reduced 

vibration. 

2. Choose a lighter racquet-10.5-11.5 

oz. 

3. Make sure you have a correct 

grip measurement. 

4. Use natural gut strings, 

which have tension 3-5lbs below 

what an athlete is used to. 

5. Use proper backhand technique. 

6. Warm up prior to playing. 

7. Focus on core muscle training. 

8. Keep your spine in correct alignment. 

9. Strengthen lower extremity musculature. 

10. Take multivitamin with plenty of 

anti-oxidants. 

A real cutting edge procedure is termed 

motor imaging technique. In essence the 

athlete visualizes in sets and repetition format, 

a learned movement such as the various 

movements on the tennis court. The 

visualization must be very detailed in nature. 

Scientifically, the neurological pathways 

involved in the particular movement 

are enhanced and other non-pertinent 

pathways inhibited. This activity is gaining 

great notoriety as many of the top athletes 

in the world are incorporating this into 

their treatment regimen.

Medical 

Microneedling 

By Thomas C. Balshi, M.D. 

Having hundreds of needles in your face sounds a little unappealing, 

right? Microneedling (rolling of a wheel covered in microscopic 

needles to create tiny skin punctures) is the latest and greatest 

dermatologic procedure for no downtime skin rejuvenation. 

The hugely popular procedure in Europe 

and Asia has been booming in the 

USA as well. Actually, it’s not as threatening 

as it sounds. Microneedling is a 

quick, safe and effective way to refresh 

the face, neck or hands. Using a device 

called “SkinPen”, microneedling can be 

performed in as little as twenty minutes. 

SkinPen is a medical grade, state-ofthe-art 

microneedling device designed to 

reverse years of sun damage, improve the 

appearance of scars, stretch marks, and 

hyperpigmentation as well as enhance 

the overall appearance of aging skin. 

SkinPen allows for controlled induction 

of the skin’s self-repair process by creating 

thousands of precise micro-injuries 

in the dermis, automatically triggering 

new collagen synthesis without causing 

scar tissue formation. It’s called Collagen 

Induction Therapy. Collagen Induction 

Therapy, is the procedure by which the 

body’s natural response to healing is used 

to increase the amount of extracellular 

matrix such as collagen or elastin in the 

skin. These tinsy “injuries” are enough to 

initiate the wound-healing cascade. Multiply 

it by the hundreds of tiny channels 

created by the SkinPen devise and presto, 

thousands of new collagen and elastin fibers 

are produced – successfully providing 

excellent skin rejuvenation results 

with little or no downtime. Your skin will 

look and feel healthier! 

The actual procedure typically 

takes twenty to thirty minutes depending 

on the size and number 

of areas treated and the severity 

of damage to the skin. Patients 

typically tolerate microneedling 

treatment with SkinPen very well; many 

report little or no discomfort during the 

procedure, mostly since a numbing cream 

is applied to the treatment area thirty 

minutes prior to the procedure. 

Microneedling treatment is a minimally 

invasive procedure; however, since the 

skin is being penetrated there will be some 

mild visible effects afterwards. These effects 

will vary based on the needle depth 

used and the intensity of treatment. Acne 

scar treatment may produce slightly more 

side effects due to deeper treatment levels 

required. Typically even the most aggressive 

treatments only have a day or two of 

mild swelling and redness. However, 

compared to laser ablasion or deep 

chemical peels, the downtime is insignificant. 

Microneedling is a quick, 

safe and effective way to generate 

new collagen without using 

thermal energy or having 

any risk for scaring. It is the 

most natural and organic 

dermatologic method to 

revitalize skin.

Five Dental Myths That 

Could Be Hurting Your Smile 

BY Craig Spodak, DMD, PA 

{ 

Knowledge is power, 

especially when it comes 

to your oral health 

If you have a white smile and all of your 

teeth, then you’re taking great care of your 

oral health, right? Wrong. Research – new 

and old – shows that there is more to your 

smile, and great oral health, than just having 

bright teeth. Forget the myths, learn the 

truths, and take the recommendations of 

your dentist and hygienist! 

Myth: Sugar causes cavities. 

Sugar doesn’t cause cavities, the acid from 

bacteria does. When you eat sugar, the bacteria 

in your mouth eat the sugar as well, creating 

acid in your mouth. This acid combines 

with saliva to form plaque. Plaque starts 

building up after every meal, and if it isn’t 

brushed away properly, it can erode the hard, 

outer enamel of a tooth, resulting in tiny holes 

in the tooth’s surface. These holes mark the 

first stage of cavity formation. Remember to 

brush (and floss!) after every snack or meal to 

reduce the chance of the bacteria buffet. 

Truth: Sugar feeds bacteria, bacteria 

produces acids, acids cause cavities. 

Myth: Teeth whitening will damage 

your enamel. 

The key ingredients in over-the-counter 

whitening products are hydrogen peroxide 

or carbamide peroxide, which work as oxidizing 

agents to remove stains on the surface 

of the enamel. The whitening strips, trays 

and pastes you can find in your local supermarket 

and online usually contain about 3 to 

10 percent of these active ingredients, and 

are generally considered safe for at-home 

use. However, there are some risks, so it’s 

best to be under the supervision of your dental 

professional. They will be able to safely 

administer the whitening product and erase 

the possibility of overusing or misusing the 

product. The most common side effect is 

tooth sensitivity and your dental team will 

whiten your teeth with a goal to lessen the 

amount of sensitivity afterward. 

Truth: Tooth whitening won’t harm your 

enamel, but is best done under professional 

care. 

Myth: Mercury fillings are harmful 

to your health. 

Silver fillings were commonly used in dentistry 

in the past few generations. While 

they are a very good dental material, most 

people prefer tooth-colored fillings that 

don’t contain mercury, so opt to have 

their “mercury fillings” removed. The 

truth is, mercury is present in the 

mouth on placement 

and on removal 

of these 

fillings. The 

best thing to do 

is to heed your 

dentist’s advice 

when he/ 

she says a 

mercury 

filling 

needs to be replaced, but not to do so because 

of the fear of mercury. 

Truth: Silver fillings only need to be 

changed if there is breakdown or new 

decay. 

Myth: Mouthwashes that burn are 

best. 

“No pain, no gain” doesn’t relate to 

mouthwash. Alcohol in mouthwash (and alcohol 

in general) is dehydrating, and alcohol 

is linked to a higher incidence of oral cancer. 

Additionally, using a mouthwash with alcohol 

may lead to the formation of plaque, bad 

breath and an unpleasant tingling sensation 

in the mouth. There are several options for 

alcohol-free mouthwash on the market, and 

most of them contain ingredients to prevent 

tooth decay, periodontal diseases (gum diseases), 

dry mouth, bad breath and plaque 

and tartar buildup. 

Truth: Healthy mouths require no 

mouthwash at all. 

Myth: Wisdom teeth must be 

extracted. 

Wisdom teeth usually appear in the 

mouth between the ages of 17 to 25, which 

is how they got their name. They don’t have 

to be extracted just because they’re there. 

As long as they’re in good position and can 

be kept clean, you can keep them. Problems 

arise when they’re malpositioned, can’t 

come in all the way, or can’t be kept clean. 

Even if you don’t have pain, you should 

have your wisdom teeth evaluated because 

the best time to have them removed is before 

they pose a problem, including cysts in 

the jaw, infections and pain. Just make sure 

you’re visiting your dentist regularly so they 

can monitor their growth. 

Truth: Healthy, clean wisdom teeth can 

be part of a healthy mouth.

Booty 

Building 101 

By Ashley Sica 

So you want a better booty but you’re not sure where to start? Then 

this is the article for you! Below are some basic principles that will 

help you attain a tighter, smoother, rounder booty…. and I don’t 

know one woman that doesn’t want that! Booty building is really 

an art and it takes specific principles in order to really see results. 

{Before you head to the gym, read on for some very important tips. 

3. Go Heavy 

Or go home! Just kidding. But in all seriousness 

you need to lift heavy to see major 

results. Don’t be afraid of the weight and 

“bulking” up. You bulk up from cupcakes 

not heavy weights! The heavier you lift, 

the smaller and tighter their backsides 

get. Now that is awesome. What’s heavy 

for you might not be heavy for the person 

next to you and that’s OK. Weight is all relative. 

Especially if you are new to weightlifting, 

start slow and build yourself up. Lift a 

weight that is challenging for you. The key 

is to push yourself enough where your form 

is not compromised and you can effectively 

squeeze your glutes…every single rep! 

1. Nutrition 

You’ve heard it a million times but I’m 

going to stress the importance of nutrition 

once again. You cannot out train a 

bad diet. If you’re looking to put muscle 

on your booty, you need to make sure 

you’re getting enough quality calories. If 

you’re looking to remove cellulite, a clean 

diet and adequate hydration is essential. 

Either way nutrition will play a huge role 

in your results. 

2. Exercise Selection 

If you think squats and lunges are the 


holy grail of booty building think again. 

While these two very popular exercises 

are great and have their purpose they’re 

not necessarily the gold standard when it 

comes to booty building. The majority of 

your routine should focus around very specific 

and isolated glute exercises. Focus on 

exercises that provide a great amount of 

hip extension. Think hip thrusts, bridges, 

kickbacks, etc. You’ll achieve far greater 

results incorporating these exercises than 

your more “traditional” ones. Particular 

exercise selection sums up to more results 

in a fraction of the time. 

4. Booty Frequency 

If you’re serious about transforming 

your backside you must put in the time 

and “leg day” one day a week isn’t going to 

cut it. Your glutes are the largest muscle in 

your body and can handle a higher training 

volume. The best results happen when 

clients train their lower-half 4-5 days per 

week! Yes, you’ve read that correctly. You’d 

be surprised at how much training your 

booty could actually handle! Try it! You’ll 

be pleasantly surprised.

Building And Growing Everyday 

STUART & SHELBY 

By diane feen 

{The Stuart & Shelby Development team is on a roll. They’re doing what 

they do best – creating new luxury homes, renovating existing ones and 

building low-income government assisted housing. 

Chuck Halberg, the founder and President 

of Stuart & Shelby continues to expand his 

reach into unknown territory. Currently 

they are working on a large project in Delray 

called Emerald Place. This two-story 

townhome development (off Sims Road) 

will have 31 units with all the trappings of 

modern living. 

The Emerald Place development will have 

a secure gated entry, cabana and pool, granite 

counter tops, colonial wood trim moldings, 

stainless steel appliances, beautiful 

crafted wood cabinetry, marble vanity tops 

and hurricane impact windows and doors. 

This new community (near the heart and 

soul of Delray Beach) will also be energy efficient 

and come with home buyers warrantees. 

The three-bedroom townhomes are projected 

rebuilding our southwest neighborhood

Delray luxury at its finest 

photo by Shelby Halberg 

to cost in the low $300’s and the first units 

should be completed in the fall of 2017. There 

are three different models to choose from. 

The advantage, according to their exclusive 

listing agent Preferred Realty, is that 

with new construction you get to pick out 

your favorite finishes, colors, cabinets, 

flooring, cabinets etc. Contact Preferred 

Realty at www.emeralddelray.com (or call 

954-971-6775) for information. 

Stuart & Shelby continue to push the 

creative envelope once again with a project 

on the Barrier Island in East Delray Beach 

called Patio Beach. This property was originally 

built in the 1950’s as a motel, but was 

turned into 10 studio condos that were 400 

to 600-square-feet. Chuck and his team are 

renovating five of the units to make the

adding on to some history at Patio Beach 

Emerald Place Townhomes in Delray Beach 

living just a little bit better. They will now 

have a second story with master suite and 

bath on the second floor and kitchen, great 

room and bath on the first floor. The condos 

will be 800-square-feet to 1200-squarefeet 

and give the condo owners a much 

larger playing field. 

The Stuart & Shelby footprint continues 

to evolve In Lake Worth as well. Currently 

they are building Davis Landings West in 

partnership with the Community Land 

Trust of Palm Beach County. This ambitious 

project consists of site development and 

construction of 16 single family homes and 

eight townhomes. The project will be completed 

in August of 2017. 

They may be spreading their expertise 

around the county, but rest assured Chuck 

has his eye on every project. “During our 

growth we always maintain a laser focus on 

customer service. The care we provide during 

the construction process is unparalleled 

and our relationship with customers is incredibly 

important to us. Our motto is: ‘Built 

with Integrity and Pride.’ And we strive to 

stay true to this mantra.’” 

Stuart & Shelby have projects from Hallandale 

Beach to West Palm Beach. They recently 

finished an 8,350-square-foot home 

in Lake Ida for a private client. “The home 

was designed to meet the needs and desires 

of the client and everyone was happy.” They 

are currently building an 8,600-square-foot 

custom home in Bocaire Country Club with 

completion expected June 2017. 

In the past few years Stuart & Shelby has 

built six custom spec homes in the Lake Ida 

neighborhood in Delray Beach. Their clients 

are very appreciative of their expert craftsmanship. 

“This letter is to thank you and your 

staff for making our first experience in the 

home construction process as exciting and 

painless as possible. Your professionalism 

and strong commitment to customer service 

was seen at our initial meeting, through the 

entire build and well after we took occupancy 

of the house. We especially appreciated 

your personal involvement, availability and 

attention you offered us. I recommend Stuart 

& Shelby to anyone looking to build a house,” 

said Jon and Yarah Ortlieb. 

There’s another aspect to Stuart & Shelby 

that is part and parcel of their corporate 

culture - Giving Back. Chuck and his team 

are always stepping up to help non-profits 

and community programs and events. Currently 

Chuck is Chairman of the Board of 

the Arts Garage and a founder of Impact

true affordable housing in Lake Worth 

100 Men Palm Beach County. 

Impact 100 was originally started by a 

group of women who donate money that goes 

to local charities. Because of their success, 

and its glorious ramifications in the community, 

Chuck got the idea to emulate this concept 

for men. “Impact 100 Men Palm Beach 

County is the first of its kind in the country. I 

believe in giving back to the community that 

has given so much to me and my family. I am 

also a member of the Delray Beach Initiative, 

which is a group of local business men and 

women who host events each year to raise 

money for local nonprofits.” 

There are a host of other sponsorships 

that Stuart & Shelby is involved with. There’s 

the Stuart and Shelby Theatre at the Arts 

Garage and sponsorships that support various 

nonprofits including: Old School Square, 

Pine Grove Elementary, The Delray Beach 

Education Foundation, Achievement Centers 

for Children & Families, Miracle League 

of Palm Beach, Delray Beach Sister Cities, 

Greater Delray Chamber of Commerce fund 

raisers, Delray Citizens for Delray Police “In 

addition to the projects and sponsorships 

we always find time to support the community. 

Stuart & Shelby is currently volunteering 

time to help the kids in the Atlantic High 

School Eagles Nest Construction program

Hy Pa-Hy Ma 

Celebrates 39 Years of Sophisticated Ladies Fashion 

By nicol jenkins 

{ 

Hy

Pa-Hy Ma was one of a few women’s clothing 

stores in the town of Delray Beach in 1978. 

“There was virtually nothing around this 

area at the time. There was a gift shop, hotel 

and restaurant down the street, but there 

really wasn’t any shopping,” said the owner 

Nance Bernet. “I wanted to open an eclectic 

shop. We started out collecting paintings, 

and selling antiques, chocolates and shipping 

oranges.” 

Her store quickly expanded to offering ladies 

dresses, clothing for women and men, 

accessories, children’s clothes and pajamas, 

and was the first to sell kimonos from China. 

“I had a friend from China who wanted 

to do some business here in Delray, and 

before the U.S. opened their trade with 

China, our store had embroidered kimonos 

imported from mainland China that no one 

Mia and Nance, daughter and mother duo 

Wanda helping customer Betsy find the perfect spring outfit 

else had,” said Nance, adding, “Over the 

years, women kept coming in and shopping 

for clothes for themselves to wear to 

a social event or special occasion, and we 

focused on becoming a ladies clothing boutique. 

Women are powerful and they are 

shoppers; Hy Pa- Hy Ma evolved into this 

very nice upscale boutique. Now we offer 

a variety of sophisticated styles catering to 

the customers’ preferences.” 

That was the evolution of the upscale ladies 

fashion boutique, Hy Pa- Hy Ma. Thirtynine 

years later, the store is still at the same 

convenient location at the Waterway East 

Plaza on Atlantic Avenue, offering the highest 

quality of sophisticated women’s clothing, 

purses, and jewelry for every day wear. 

In its 39th year, the store continues to 

stock a wide variety of women’s attire, everything 

from casual wear to cocktail wear, 


Naive painting available in Gallery Collection 

skirts and pants, jackets and tops, mother of the bride or groom 

dresses and specialty accessories. Each piece is unique and oneof-a-kind, 

and they only use high quality fabrics. They also fill the 

store with the latest trends and top designers, including Angela 

Moore, Mary Francis, Joseph Ribkoff, Frank Lyman, Tribal and 

many more. All their clothing is upscale yet very affordable. You 

can find a unique outfit or accessory for a night out on the Ave or 

a dinner party or luncheon. 

“Sophisticated and moderately priced,” is how the owner describes 

the clothing in her store. 

“We cater to the woman who has an important social life, who 

wants an outfit that is flattering, sophisticated, and clothing that 

will take her from day to night. We try to keep our prices of the 

clothing moderate for our customers,” she said. “We accommodate 

everything from casual and sophisticated day wear, lots of 

separates, jackets, skirts and pants, cocktail attire, and everything 

in between.” 

Besides high quality clothing, the boutique also has a welcoming 

atmosphere of a small business. Unlike big malls and department 

stores, the owner and staff specialize in being knowledgeable 

about fashion, trends, clothing designers and can dress you 

from head to toe and for any occasion. 

“Many women today have careers, so when they shop they 

want to have expediency and one-on-one attention. The access 

to our store is expedient. When they drive up, there is plenty 

of parking; the location is very convenient. And there is always 

someone here to help you find that perfect outfit,” said the owner. 

“All of my staff offers that red carpet experience to our customers. 

You are getting one-on-one service here!” 

The owner also gives back to the community through charity 

events and fashion shows including the Delray Beach Fashion 

Week and many more. Nance, who attended the Parsons School 

of Design and owned a hotel, has many years of experience in the 

hospitality industry. Many of the customers come in to socialize 

with staff and friends and make a day out of shopping and catching 

up. The owner Nance has become close friends with many of 

her customers and has dressed their entire families. The owner 

continues to have the same enthusiasm for the store since the 

day it opened. 

“I’m still excited about the store and have enthusiasm for the 

fashion industry. If you enjoy what you are doing, it doesn’t feel 

like work. I get to outfit clothing for the local community and 

three generations of families, from grandmothers to mothers 

and daughters,” said Nance.

Fresh And Fabulous 

CONTE’S ITALIAN DELI & 

GOURMET MARKET 

By Diane feen 

{ 

Conte’s 

Italian Deli & Gourmet Market 

has come a long way since it opened 

almost two years ago. 


The Pineapple Grove emporium of home 

cooked Italian food used to be a place where 

you would rush in to buy fresh homemade 

soups or hot dishes and bring them home or 

to the office. 

Things have changed since then. And the 

change is purely for the good of the neighborhood 

and its guests. Conte’s has tables 

with seating for 20 and they now serve 

breakfast. 

Not only that, the food has hit its stride 

with a flavor and homemade goodness that 

only a mother (or grandmother) would 

know how to create. That’s nothing new for 

owner Robert Conte who presides over this 

local culinary domain. Conte has been whipping 

up fresh dishes his whole life. 

He started in New York (at Tavern on the 


Green) and moved to Florida to become a 

successful restaurateur in Fort Lauderdale. 

Though you might wonder why Bob is still at 

the sink (and the stove) every day, it’s easy 

to see why. “I enjoy working and introducing 

people to homemade Italian food they will 

enjoy,” said Conte, a gentle man who adores 

this challenging foodie profession. 

His partner and chef, Thomas has the 

same passion for homemade Italian food 

that Bob has. He whips up terrific dishes on 

a daily basis when let loose in the world that 

Conte built. 

Customers love the taste, the freshness 

and the passion that is put into each dish. 

Their cheese, meat and vegetable lasagna 

almost dances on the plate it looks so good. 

The Penne Pasta with sundried tomatoes 

PRIVATE PARTY 

in a pesto sauce is so good you’d think you 

were in Italy, and the chicken salad, egg salad 

and tuna is also divinely ordained. 

Just ask those who love this small hidden 

hangout. “I come here three days a week 

because everything is fresh and the people 

are friendly. I love the chicken salad, broccoli 

with garlic and lima beans. It’s not only 

delicious but you get a good value. Everyone 

talks about location, location, location 

but how about value, value, value,” said 

customer Bob. 

Bob isn’t the only one smitten with this 

tiny enclave of great Italian food. “I always 

come here, but the hardest part is agonizing 

over what to eat, it’s all so yummy,” said 

Elizabeth Burrows. The CRA Economic Development 

Manager who stops by Conte’s 

after a long day with take out for her family. 

And why not? It’s like mother would make. 

Conte’s also has meatballs, baked chicken, 

eggplant parm, lightly breaded chicken 

cutlets, manicotti, stuffed grape leaves and 

linguini with garlic. Their sandwiches are 

also legendary.

PRIVATE PARTY 

“I love it here, the Italian food is excellent and well prepared,” 

said Delray businessman Brian. “I eat the meatball sandwich, 

the mozzarella and tomato salad and The Godfather sandwich 

(which is Prosciutto, Mozzarella, roasted peppers, basil and balsamic). 

Sometimes I take it back to the office, other times I take 

it home to my parents.” 

The selection of sandwiches is endless – they have roast beef 

with melted provolone, tomato and mayo-garlic spread or Chicken 

Little, which is grilled chicken breast, provolone, bacon and 

tomato with garlic-mayo spread. There are other popular sandwiches 

(wraps, heros and salads) that will tantalize your taste 

buds and hit the spot when you’re hungry or even if you’re not. 

Conte’s also has homemade soups that you can take home and 

savor at your leisure. There’s Italian Wedding Soup, Chicken vegetable, 

chicken tortilla soup, New England Clam Chowder, Pasta 

Fagioli and others depending on the day. 

There’s another new thing happening at Conte’s. They are 

renting out the restaurant after hours for private parties. Just 

recently 20 people came together for a dinner party there. They 

planned the five-course menu with Bob and had wonderful 

homemade Italian fare (salad, Meatballs, Chicken Marsala, and 

Broccoli with garlic, Penne marinara and homemade Italian 

cheesecake). The prices are reasonably priced and the atmosphere 

is upbeat and casual. 

If you’re in Pineapple Grove at Breakfast time (starting at 

8 am) try their eggs on a roll with bacon, sausage or ham, or 

a Greek Omelet, Garden omelet, potato and eggs, pancakes or 

French Toast. 

If you have a sweet tooth, indulge in butter cookies with sprinkles, 

homemade Italian Cheesecake or luscious Tiramisu. 

“We are known for our excellent catering for private events, 

special parties and business functions. We will discuss and 

customize the menu to meet your needs. Call us or order online,” 

said Bob. 

Come to Conte’s. It’s a place of passion for its Italian culinary 

roots and a fashion for friendliness to all. 

As Burrow’s says, “it’s yummy.”

DIAMONDS EAST 

international 

You Deserve It 

By diane feen 


{Beauty may be in the eye of the 

beholder but there’s no disputing 

that beauty prevails everywhere 

at Diamonds East International. 

There are diamond wedding rings that 

sparkle with perfection in all shapes and 

sizes as well as diamond pendants, diamond 

earrings and diamond bracelets for 

women. On the other side of the store they 

have an exquisite selection of collectable antique, 

retro-style and designer watches for 

men and women from the most prestigious 

names in the business. 

How does Cartier, Rolex, Patek Philippe, 

Audemars Piguet, Piaget, Breitling, Jaeger 

LeCoultre, Panerai, and Chopard sound to 

you? If you listen hard enough, you’ll hear 

a cheering squad nearby to hail the glory 

of these watches (that are often collectable 

and enviable accessories to own). 

That is one reason that locals – and outof-towners 

– flock to this diamond and 

watch store that stands out from the crowd. 

There is another reason – and it starts with 

trust and ends with knowledge of the industry 

and their products. 

“The owners at Diamonds East International 

really care about their customers and 

their products. We bought a beautiful gold 

Rolex watch from them and the price was 

outstanding. Their customer service is the 

best and the products are always top notch,” 

said Vicky from Pompano. 

The reason is simple; they honor their 

customers and know every detail about the 

products they sell. It also helps that they 

have over 26 years of experience. If you 

want a diamond ring and don’t know exactly 


what style or color you want, Liz will educate 

you (and lead you in the right direction) 

to purchase the ring that reflects your style. 

Truth be told Liz can always put you in the 

right path to passion when it comes to finding 

the perfect ring. 

The diamonds sold at Diamonds East are 

all certified by GIA and EGL and range from 

small diamond rings to very large ones. If you 

found your dream mate and want your dream 

diamond, then you’re in the right place. But 

it’s not just size that matters – its quality. 

“We have people coming to shop here from 

New York, Chicago, Miami and all over the US 

because we have the best selection of diamond 

rings, pre-owned and new luxury watches for 

men and women. We also treat our customers 

well and our prices are below most other 

competitors. We stand behind all of our merchandise,” 

said co-owner Ken Mordechai. 

Mordechai is right. Customers rave about 

Diamonds East attentive service and knowledge 

of their products. You also can’t beat 

their low prices. 

“I would recommend Diamonds East in a 

heartbeat. I saw a watch online for my wife, 

but it was not the exact model I wanted. I sent 

an email and received an immediate reply that 

they could get me the right watch. The price 

was the lowest I could find. There was no haggling 

and it was delivered as promised. I highly 

recommend them,” said Keith.

Diamonds – like all things of beauty – 

change with preference and time. “We have 

an exquisite selection of various shapes and 

size diamonds that impresses our clients. 

We also have a large selection of custom 

diamond mountings to showcase your unbelievable 

diamond that you love, for your 

love. Whatever your wants and desires are, 

Diamonds East will assist you in purchasing 

an item that you will absolutely love. 

Our staff takes pride and stands behind our 

brand. We truly enjoy guiding our clients in 

the right direction,” said Liz. 

Diamonds East also carries a large variety 

of fine jewelry such as diamond tennis 

bracelets, diamonds studs, custom diamond 

pendants and diamond necklaces for joyful 

occasions such as push gifts, Bar Mitzvahs, 

Bat Mitzvahs, baptisms, confirmation, birthday 

gifts, anniversaries or any celebration. 

Diamonds East is an Authorized Dealer 

for both Benchmark and Rubber B Official. 

“Benchmark wedding rings are crafted to 

perfect form, shape and purpose. Every 

angle has been designed from a concept 

and built to perfection. Coupled with Benchmark’s 

outstanding Lifetime Guarantee, 

these rings will always uphold the appearance 

they were built to have.” 

“Rubber B” is the ultimate alternative 

strap for a vast variety of watches. Diamonds 

East offers a complimentary installation 

of any Rubber B strap purchased at 

their store. 

According to Mordechai, the Wedding Gift 

is an important part of the wedding ritual 

today. “You can look at a marriage just like 

you would a Rolex, it’s timeless.” 

All of their watchmakers are CW-21 certified 

and the retro or antique watches from estate 

sales are often one-of-a-kind or rare finds. 

Diamonds East also repairs watches or 

jewelry and you can trade in what you have 

for something new. “People often get tired of 

their jewelry or watches and want to trade 

them in for something new. It might even be 

worth more over time,” adds Mordechai. 

Because of their honesty and integrity 

much of their business is from word of 

mouth and referrals. “The reason is that no 

one beats our prices and you’ll never hear 

a bad word about our customer service. We 

cater to our clients and assist them with all 

of their needs,” said Mordechai. 

Diamonds East is one of the largest jewelry 

wholesalers (and Estate Buyers) in South 

Florida. Their selection of elegant time pieces 

and diamond engagement and wedding 

rings is truly outstanding. 

Celebrate your love with a new diamond 

ring that will tout your unity and happiness. 

And, if you want to sell or buy a designer 

watch, Diamonds East is the only place to go.

Specialists in Luxury Real Estate 

THE fite group 

{By Linda Brown 

Pssst, the Piano Man - yes, as in Billy Joel - is selling his luxurious, 

waterfront home on Manalapan. The Fite Group Luxury Homes has 

listed the estate for an asking price of $18.5 million. And, you can add 

the two-acre adjacent parcel for a combined $27 million. 

This is nothing out of the ordinary for The 

Fite Group. The key to The Fite Group’s becoming 

a hugely successful real estate company 

comes from their core values and work 

experiences. 

Founded in 2008, the firm is led by David 

Fite and Nadine, his wife. Both graduates of 

The University of Michigan’s Ross School of 

Business, David was previously the CFO of 

the two largest real estate firms in the New 

York metro area and Nadine was a senior 

strategy and business development executive 

for a Fortune 50 company in New York. 

View of the rear facade from the dock 

In The Fite Group Luxury Homes they have 

combined their considerable management 

expertise with their love of all things real 

estate related. 

The Fite Group is a luxury boutique agency 

with over 100 high achieving brokers 

focused on the Palm Beaches, from Boca 

to Jupiter Island and from Palm Beach to 

Wellington. With the headquarters on Palm 

Beach Island, the firm has offices in Delray 

Beach and Palm Beach Gardens. 

“Our business model is to be more attentive 

to the needs of both our clients and our 

photo by andy frame 

photo by andy frame 

agents by eliminating layers of oversight. 

We are locally owned operated; as a result, 

we are able to be very nimble and responsive 

in our decision making,” says founder 

and principal David Fite. “Collaboration 

is key to our success. Our sales associates 

work cooperatively, rather than competitively 

- which brings results for not only 

our clients, but also for our communities 

and ourselves.” 

“We are a team made up of true locals, 

rather than local representatives. We are 

involved and invested in our communities.” 

The Fite Group’s Delray Beach Office is 

proudly sponsoring the ‘Delray Beach Home 

Tour’ taking place on March 9th, 2017 which 

raises funds for the Achievement Centers for 

Children and Families. 

The Fite Group achieved a major milestone 

in 2016 hitting the $3 Billion dollar 

sales mark since the firm opened 8 years 

ago. Their average home sale price is an 

impressive $1.4 million. “Our agents truly 

pictured is the piano lounge 


Listing agent, jack elkins 

David and nadine fite 


set us apart, especially in our Delray Beach 

market. They all have proven records of 

success. Having just celebrated the third anniversary 

of our Delray Beach office, we now 

have over 20 agents focusing on Delray, Gulf 

Stream, Ocean Ridge, Manalapan, and Boca 

Raton,” says David. 

The Fite Group prides themselves on 

taking a biographical approach to helping 

their clients fulfill their personal real estate 

dreams. “Our agents spend a great deal of 

time learning about their clients, understanding 

their current and desired lifestyles, 

and what is truly important to them. By doing 

this The Fite Group is better positioned 

to curate a selection of homes that not only 

meet our client’s needs on paper but feel 

right when they visit,” says Nadine Fite. “Our 

goal is to enable our prospective buyers to 

envision themselves living in and enjoying a 

particular home.” To The Fite Group it’s not 

simply a listing, it’s a lifestyle. 

Currently the highest priced home listed 

by The Fite Group is $45 million! Also in 

Manalapan, this waterfront mansion at 1370 

S. Ocean Boulevard is owned by Ed Brown, 

president and CEO of Patron Spirits International 

A.G. This luxurious property was 

recently featured in Elle Decor magazine and 

on Secret Lives of the Super Rich TV series. 

And getting back to The Piano Man, 

his nine-bedroom home and adjacent lot 

sundeck and surrounding intracoastal view 

is located on 1920/1940 S. Ocean Blvd. It 

was built in 2005, and underwent a total 

renovation in 2015. It offers 300 feet of 

both Intracoastal and ocean frontage with 

docking for up to a 65 foot boat. Its custom 

kitchen has a unique Chicago brick 

barrel ceiling. And, of course, one of his 

pianos sits in the living room, overlooking 

the blue palm-tree lined waters of the 

Intracoastal. 

Jack Elkins, a Manalapan resident and a 

Fite Group Realtor has been partnerning 

with The Piano Man for a number of years. 

“He’s a very nice, easygoing, down-to-earth 

guy,” Jack says. “He found this home to be a 

wonderful place for his family and a place 

of inspiration for his music. The home is 

light, bright and inviting. He loves South 

Florida and the waterfront lifestyle. As an 

avid boater, he wanted a place to write, 

play, and have a dock for his boat in his 

backyard.” Joel even named his waterfront 

estate, Villa Intermezzo. The perfect spot 

for his own personal interlude where he 

relaxed with family and friends and enjoyed 

the stunning sunsets across the wide 

expanse of the Intracoastal. 

The Fite Group place extra importance 

on their clients as people: “…we prioritize 

relationships over transactions, people 

over properties. Developing long-term 

trust is more important than any shortterm 

gains…” 

It’s all part of The Fite Way.

Everyone Needs Inspiration… 

InCite Talks Inspires the Delray 

Community to Rise to Life’s Challenges 

By NICOL JENKINS 

{ 

Ten years ago, Greg Goyins was homeless— 

living on the beach in Delray, struggling to 

survive, and always looking for his next fix. 

Gregory Goyins and Mike Nussbaum Co-Founders of Epiphany 

with Chris Herren, Motivational Speaker & Sobriety Advocate 

“You name it, I did it—crack, cocaine, heroin, 

pills,” he recalls. 

His remarkable journey led him from a 

life on the brink to becoming a successful 

addiction-recovery maverick, and to founding 

InCite Talks, a local nonprofit that invites 

famous personalities to the Delray Beach 

area to share their stories of heartbreak and 

triumph to the community—all of it free of 

cost to the public. 

Goyins is passionate about saving lives, 

and giving something back to the community 

that helped save his. He hopes InCite 

Talks will help build bridges between community 

members and people who are in 

addiction recovery. He wants them to rub 

shoulders and realize that recovering addicts 

are regular people. “They’re our kids, 

our brothers and sisters, our neighbors and 

friends,” says Greg. 

The shared experiences of InCite Talks 

events show that everybody has challenges 

to overcome. Olympians, movie stars, comedians, 

and athletes who have conquered 

extreme life adversity to achieve greatness 

have shared their stories. 

Rex Chapman and Tony Hoffman 

Some of the speakers have included: Actor 

Lillo Brancato from A Bronx Tale and The 

Sopranos who suffered from alcoholism and 

drug addiction; former NBA Player Rex Chapman, 

who spoke about his substance abuse; 

and former NBA professional basketball 

player Chris Herren, who recently shared his 

tale of descent into addiction, a miraculous 

recovery and his new life mission. 

On March 4 at Pavilion Grille in Boca Raton 

from 3 to 5 p.m., Inky Johnson, a onetime 

cornerback for the Tennessee Vols, will share 

his story. He was just eight games away from 

a promising NFL career, when a seemingly 

routine tackle almost ended his life. It cost 

him his arm and his career, but it didn’t put 

out his fire. Johnson is magnetic; he inspires 

people to be better and do better. 


These events have been attended by 

everyone from high-school and college 

groups, to regular citizens to recovering 

addicts. Greg Goyins wants the events to 

give people the hope and strength they 

need to overcome life’s setbacks, just 

like he has. 

Goyins’ life spun out of control after he 

lost four close friends in the September 

11th terrorist attacks. Addiction destroyed 

his successful career on Wall Street and 

pushed him south to Florida in search of 

escape. “I knew what I was doing was not 

good. I don’t think anyone wants to be an 

addict when they grow up,” he said. 

Then one day, Greg woke up, and decided 

to change his life. He enrolled in a rehab 

program, where he not only got clean, but 

discovered his twin passions in life, filmmaking, 

and helping others work their 

way back from the depths of addiction. 

That led Goyins back to college where 

he studied film, and into directing. Greg 

soon realized that the storytelling in filmmaking 

has a powerful therapeutic effect 

on addiction recovery. Back in Delray 

Beach, Goyins founded an addiction-recovery 

center called Epiphany with business 

partner Mike Nussbaum. Epiphany 

uses groundbreaking therapies to help 

those who haven’t achieved full recovery 

in other programs. One of those therapies, 

Narrative Filmmaking, was developed 

by Goyins in conjunction with Drs. Ruoxi 

Chen and Jason Austin from the University 

of Louisiana Monroe. 

As Epiphany continued to grow, Goyins 

could see that—not surprisingly—many 

Lillo Brancato 

South Florida residents were less than 

comfortable with the growing number of 

recovering addicts in their midst. And so, 

InCite Talks was born. 

“Delray Beach claims the moniker of the 

recovery capital of the world. Every 1 in 5 

Americans are dealing with addictions to 

drugs or alcohol. We want InCite speakers 

to bridge the two communities, the addiction 

recovery community together with 

the community at large,” said the founder. 

“It’s rewarding when a young man or 

woman goes home for Christmas and you 

get a thank-you card from their family saying 

that you saved their child’s life,” said 

Greg. “My hope from InCite Talks is that it 

will inspire people to understand that everybody 

goes through things. Life shows 

up and has an odd way of doing that.” 

Looking back on his lowest point in life 

some 10 years ago, Greg says he wouldn’t 

trade his hardships. 

“I wouldn’t change one second of my 

entire journey. If I did, I don’t know if I 

would be in the same place emotionally 

or spiritually. I am able to help people stay 

clean and sober and in turn, I stay clean 

and sober,” said Greg. 

Whether you are struggling with addiction, 

putting food on the table, rocky relationships 

or any daily life challenges, one of 

the speakers of InCite Talks can inspire you

Second Time Around Consignment 

Finds it Very Green North of Downtown 

By Hannah DaviS 


Always Blue Skies...life is good! 

Green Pastures 

“When you hear the laughter of children 

echoing off the sports fields and playgrounds 

of St Vincent’s Catholic Church 

and School, you’ll know you’re across the 

street from us” is how shop owner Jen Davis 

helps customers find her store. Second 

Time Around Consignment is celebrating 

its new location just North of downtown 

at 801 George Bush Blvd. New neighbors 

include such Delray stalwarts as Nancy Regan’s 

Bella Reina Spa and Marianne’s Gourmet 

Deli. With gleaming hardwood floors, 

expert lighting and high ceilings, this new 

store has a Spring-like, garden feel, calming 

atmosphere and welcoming staff. It’s eye 

candy for the designer handbag enthusiast. 

It’s become a must-see destination for shoppers 

searching for one of a kind designer 

item such as Chanel, LV, Pucci and Prada 

at great prices. They also carry fun, everyday 

designers including Lilly, J McLaughlin, 

Melly M and Chico’s. Originally behind The 

Green Owl on Atlantic Ave, her shop has 

been an upscale ladies consignment boutique 

for nearly thirty seven years. It was 

there that Jen first partnered with landlord 

Dr. Bob George of Abeleina Properties. 

“I’ve had some mentors and coaches during 

these formative years” Jen recalls, “but none 

of them were kinder or more supportive 

than Dr. George.” 


Owner Jen welcomes you 

Straw- TACULAR! 

A Bit of History 

The shop was founded by Jen’s longtime 

friend Ellie Lowry. When she retired, Jen 

took the reins and expanded the shop beyond 

its downtown roots. Jen joined the 

ranks of other downtown business women 

including Laura Simon, ‎Executive Director 

From Chico’s-Chanel 

at Delray Beach DDA and Jestena Boughton, 

owner of Colony Hotel. Bankers, realtors and 

other professional women now find affordable 

high end fashions at incredible prices in 

the shop. They often stop off at Marianne’s 

Gourmet Deli, or The French Bakery for a 

light snack on their shopping excursions.

The Team 

Jen has connected with former shop owner Ampi, an expert 

merchandiser who keeps the shop fresh and the displays seasonally 

appropriate and tasteful. She now works closely with 

Jen helping to ensure a great product mix and a gorgeous store. 

For many years, also, Jen has been blessed with a group of 

women surrounding her with encouraging words, great ideas 

and brilliant concepts. And she is grateful for all the influence, 

help and life experiences these women have shared with her. 

Cash for Stuff 

Second Time Around usually pays cash for merchandise on 

the spot. If your closets are too full, or just need refreshing, you 

can “convert” your beautiful but seldom worn clothing, handbags 

and accessories into spending money. Also, Jen will trade 

handbags, jewelry, shoes, sunglasses and clothing customers 

are seeking to “recycle”. More likely, she will purchase them 

outright, providing helpful cash to customers, and a boost to the 

“recycling” nature of her business. As an added service, home 

consultations are available during hectic times when visiting 

the store is not practical. 

Donations 

photo courtesy of second time around consigment 

Eventually, items that don’t sell in the store are donated to 

a variety of local non-profits, such as Wayside House, Caring 

Kitchen and local churches that include Cason Methodist , St. 

Vincent’s, St. Paul’s, and St. Joseph’s. As well, Jen has begun 

partnering with Guylaine Richard, who heads up La Joie de Vivre 

Research Community Development Center in Haiti. Guylaine’s 

mission is to develop a model of integrated services and community 

engagement to help populations that can be replicated 

in other localities across Haiti. 

Regular Events 

Second Time Around holds regular weekend events like “Parking 

Lot Sales” as a last chance to move the ever-changing merchandise 

flowing through the store. Customers flock to this once a 

month event. Plans are underway for a spring event that will include 

wine and cheese, with specials galore inside the store. Contact 

(561) 278-0493 or Jen@2TADelray.com to get on the mailing 

list! New items come in every day! Bring this article in and receive 

10% off a single purchase item during the month of March.

special feature ║ ONE AVEDA SALON 

Exellence In Beauty And Beyond 

ONE AVEDA SALON 

By Diane Feen 


{ 

At One Aveda Salon they know that beauty comes 

from within. But that doesn’t preclude them from 

making outer beauty a priority for their loyal clients. 

Though there is a serene sense of calm 

permeating this rather Zen salon on Federal 

Hwy in Delray Beach, their chairs are filled 

each hour. And that’s a good thing. 

It’s been six years since Sue Anger and her 

daughter Ariel took over this Aveda namesake 

salon and it’s been a success ever since. 

This whirlwind of progress continues to this 

day and with it comes new clients and stylists. 

“Every season we get busier and busier, 

we are crazy busy,” said Ariel. 

It’s easy to see why. All you have to do is 

talk to their customers (new and regulars). 

Judy is one of them. “I just started coming 

to One Aveda and they’ve done an awesome 

job for me. I come here for a color and cut. 

I went to other salons in Delray Beach and 

they were not nearly as good as this one.” 

Lynne feels the same way as Judy. “Sue does 

the best color and extensions. She’s fast and 

blends the colors as a master (with the help of 

Ariel). I love this salon and the stylists!” 

Part of the reason for their continued 

success is their precision and dedication 

New Tulasara Wedding Masque 


Ariel and Sue, Owner/Manager 

to the Aveda tradition. Add that to Sue and 

Ariel’s passion for excellence and you have 

the perfect blend of extraordinary talent. 

Clients know that when they enter this 

abode of beauty and that’s why they keep 

coming back. 

One Aveda also added “New Talent Stylists” 

that are recent graduates of the Aveda 

Institute. Not only are they trained by Sue 

- and excellent at their craft – but the price 

for their services is lower than the standard 

fees at One Aveda. 

The Aveda name is not only associated 

with beautifying ones tresses but their products 

occupy an equally high priority in the 

beauty hierarchy. These new Aveda products 

are based on the story of Tulasāra. 

“The wisdom of ancient Indian Ayurvedic 

practitioners believed that balanced skin is 

beautiful skin.” 

In the name of balance Aveda recently introduced 

Tulasara Radiant Oleation Oil and 

Facial Dry Brush. These products restore 

the skin’s radiance with a naturally derived 

blend of six plant oils massaged into skin after 

facial dry brushing. This helps promote 

microcirculation to nourish and restore the 

skin’s radiance. 

The Tulasara Firm Concentrate lifts and 

firms the skin and helps smooth visible 

lines and wrinkles with a naturally derived 

treatment serum. The Tulasara Calm Con-

New Tulasara Skin Care Line 

centrate soothes skin and makes it more resilient. This natural 

treatment serum has an algae extract that reduces the look 

of redness and irritation over time. The pomegranate fruit 

extracts help calm the skin. It also contains over 100,000 red 

raspberry plant stem cells known for their restorative powers. 

The Tulasara Bright Concentrate restores radiance, evens 

the skin tone and reduces discoloration over time with a naturally 

derived treatment serum. Other new products are the 

Tulasāra Wedding Masque Overnight and Wedding Masque 

Eye Overnight that help you look wedding day radiant all year 

long. The products were modeled after the Haldi beauty ritual, 

a beautifying part of the Hindu wedding ceremony. 

“These products weave the best of what’s old with the best 

of what’s new into a completely new beauty paradigm of advanced 

science, Ayurvedic wisdom and proven results.” 

If you know the Aveda brand stature then you know it stands 

for helping keep the world in perfect balance. And it’s not just 

beautifying the hair, face or body – it’s making the planet whole 

as well. With this altruistic goal comes philanthropy. 

One Aveda Salon is always on board with their Mother Ship. 

That’s why they’re helping raise funds for a local Boca Raton 

charity called Propel (which stands for People Reaching Out to 

Provide Education and Leadership). When guests of One Aveda 

donate to this worthy youth charity they get to spin a wheel and 

receive a gift or service in return. 

To Honor Earth Day, Aveda is raising funds to protect the 

earth and its peoples. In the month of April Aveda (and One 

Aveda) will donate 100% of the purchase price of their signature 

limited-edition light the way candles to Global Greengrants 

Fund for water projects in over 80 countries. 

One Aveda Salon is selling a state-of-the art recycled plastic 

water bottle with reusable filter inside that removes bacteria 

from your water. Proceeds from sales of this PBA free bottle will 

go to the Everglades Foundation. 

They say doing good is being good. That’s how the Aveda brand 

has remained since its inception. One Aveda is no different. They 

maintain the highest standards and remain true to their namesake 

of beauty that permeates your inner and outer core.

Give your skin what it’s been thirsting for 

THE Seagate Spa 

By linda brown 

{ 

It’s been said that wine is good for the soul. This month, The Seagate Spa 

sets out to prove that it’s also incredibly good for the skin. 

Take a therapeutic journey to the vineyard 

with The Seagate’s Caudalie Divine Vinothérapie 

package. It’s the perfect way to 

enjoy a glass or two of good wine, while your 

skin drinks in some luxuriously beneficial, 

wine-based ingredients. 

The Seagate Spa’s four signature, wineinspired 

treatments include a 25-minute, 

skin-rejuvenating Crushed Cabernet Body 

Polish, a relaxingly delightful 50-minute 

Divine Vinothérapie Massage, a 50-minute 

Premier Cru Anti-Aging Facial, and the Fleur 

de Vigne Pedicure, also a lavish 50 minutes. 

Three out of four treatments are paired with 

a complimentary glass of wine to round out 

the experience. 

These delicious skin and beauty treatments 

can be enjoyed separately or packaged 

together for a decadent three-hour, totally 

awesome trek through the virtual vineyard. 

But at this month’s special price, it’s really 

worth indulging in all four. 

Start by relaxing with a glass of Franciscan 

Cabernet Sauvignon as your skin is exfoliated 

and smoothed to perfection by the natural 

scrub of crushed grape seeds, brown sugar, 

and pure Bordeaux honey. 

Next, settle in for Caudalie’s signature massage, 

featuring the award-winning Caudalie 


Divine Oil. Lose yourself in the intoxicating 

scent of the floral, sun-kissed fragrance as 

your therapist methodically soothes away 

all tension and stress. The antioxidant-rich 

grape polyphenols and wine nectar blend 

smoothly with grapefruit, vanilla, and cedar 

to leave your skin intensely hydrated and totally 

pampered. 

Follow up by giving your face equal time 

with the Caudalie Premier Cru Anti-Aging Facial. 

This pleasant de-stressing break uses an 

innovative massage technique coupled with 

an exclusive mask enriched with patented 

resveratrol. The combination leaves your facial 

skin feeling amazingly denser, smoother, 

and firmer. You truly have to experience it to 

believe it. Those fine lines and wrinkles miraculously 

fade into the horizon as you sip a 

glass of Clos du Bois Merlot. 

For your Vinothérapie grand finale, give 

your feet the ultimate treat while you toast 

your renewed vitality over a complimentary 

glass of Kim Crawford Chardonnay. As your 

nails and cuticles are meticulously groomed, 

you’ll soak in the scent of fresh grape flowers, 

totally relaxed as the Crushed Cabernet 

Scrub works to smooth away dry skin and 

calluses. The grand finale is a decadent grape 

seed oil cream massaged into your lower legs 

and feet just prior to your nail polish. 

Although the Fleur de Vigne Pedicure is 

the perfect finish for this three-hour long, 

four-treatment package, your vineyard trip 

doesn’t end here. Booking any one of The 

Seagate Spa’s Vinothérapie journeys entitles 

you to all-day access to the hotel’s amenities. 

Extend your day at the pool, Jacuzzi, pool bar, 

fitness center, tranquility room, and steam 

room for an exceptionally relaxing visit. 

Be sure to enjoy every luxurious detail of 

the Vinothérapie retreat at this 8,000-squarefoot 

haven of serenity. Don’t miss this decadent 

trip to the vineyard via the Caudalie 

Divine Vinothérapie package. It’s the perfect 

opportunity to experience the ultimate indulgence, 

all courtesy of Delray Beach’s only 

destination spa. 

Choose individual treatments packaged 

separately or treat yourself to the entire 

package of four Vinothérapie treatments 

and complimentary wine accompaniments, 

for the exclusive price of just $400 (a $500 

value). Prepare to toast a relaxed, more beautiful 

you. Cheers!

A Different Approach to Working Out 

Slash fitness 

By diane feen 

{ 

No 


treadmills, no ellipticals, no stationary bikes; oh my! 

And guess what? We’re talking about a gym here! 

Yep, you read it correctly. There’s actually 

a gym nearby without the usual staples 

of exercise machines found in health clubs 

worldwide. 

Welcome to Slash Fitness, 290 SE 6th 

Ave., Suite 2, in Delray Beach. 

Co-owner Joe Ardagna, sums up his 

gym’s philosophy in five words: “Your body 

is your machine,” he says. “That’s what sets 

us apart from other gyms.” 

Joe, co-owner Austin Brock, General 

Manager Brandon Brennan, and Assistant 

General Manager Alisha Walker all share 

the same philosophy when it comes to 

working with their many customers. 


“People deserve to look a certain way,” 

Brandon says, “and we’re here to get you 

there.” 

The Slash Fitness method isn’t content 

at just making your body look its absolute 

best. “It’s not just about the physical,” Joe 

explains. “It’s about the mental as well. It’s 

how to connect the physical, mental and 

spiritual. We give them the tools to use in 

their everyday life to help with the mindset. 

You need it all involved.” 

Brandon, pointing to his head, succinctly 

adds: “It all starts up here.” 

Owners Joe and Austin came up with 

the Slash Fitness concept. “We had met at 

Co-owners Austin Brock and Joe Ardagna 

a different facility,” Joe recalls. “We had an 

idea where fitness was going, and where it 

needed to be.” 

That’s when they created the concept. 

The Slash Fitness program uses the concept 

of group exercise. “Everything is 

programmed for people in a 45-minute 

workout,” says Austin. “We brought the 

one-on-one experience to a group.” 

The gym’s hours are 5 a.m. to 7:30 or 

8:30 p.m. The setup is one trainer working 

with 24 students. “Everybody gets equal 

attention,” Joe says. “It’s a personal experience 

every time.” 

It’s an early afternoon in February, and a 

class has just ended. As each student leaves 

the gym, a look of euphoria - along with 

sweat from a good workout - is evident 

on their faces. Everyone takes the time to 

high-five Alisha before they reach the exit. 

And Alisha points out, some members 

enjoy their time at Slash Fitness so much, 

they keep coming back for more and more. 

“People even come here two or three times 

a day,” Alisha says. 

“We actually have to tell people, ‘you 

need to remember to take a rest day,’ “ Austin 

adds. 

“This is not your traditional gym,” Brandon 

says. 

Joe says: “We remove the monotony out 

of working out. We literally have to argue 

with people to get them to leave. Honestly, 

one of our biggest challenges is getting our 

members to understand the rest and recovery 

process.” 

Alisha, an Upstate New York native, and 

Brandon met when they were attending 

college in Pennsylvania. They saw videos

Your Slash Fitness Family 

about the Slash Fitness method and became intrigued. “I saw 

their videos and followed this energy on line,” Brandon says. 

“We fell in love with this concept.” 

The exercise area at Slash Fitness is not completely devoid 

of some standard exercise equipment. There are some free 

weights people use as part of their workout routine, along 

with some non-traditional exercise tools, including blue discs 

that resemble Frisbees. However, Frisbees they are not as 

demonstrated by Brandon while demonstrating a stretching 

routine on the floor. 

Brandon is proud of the fact he and his fellow trainers at 

Slash Fitness have actually changed peoples’ lives for the better. 

“I’ve had two clients who lost 90 pounds,” he says. “We help 

with nutrition as well. Losing that 90 pounds is an accomplishment. 

They made me realize it’s all achievable.” 

Emily Finegan, an East Boca resident has been coming to 

Slash Fitness for a little more than a year. The physician’s assistant 

– and mother of two little ones – joined the gym as part 

of a New Year’s resolution. She has absolutely no regrets. 

“All these guys are great,” Emily says. “They’re all so encouraging. 

They’re very motivating. I leave here fully elated and 

stress free. I almost get a high from it.” 

Emily gets to the gym four days a week at 5:30 a.m. “I’m not 

tired anymore,” she says. “I can play with my five and threeyear-old 

after working all day. It’s my therapy. I don’t get tired. 

I don’t get moody. I even wake up before my alarm.” 

She particularly enjoys the way they change around the exercise 

routine so it never gets boring. 

Mike Alexander, a Delray Beach resident, has been coming 

here about a year and a half. He too has reaped the benefits. 

“I’m in the best shape of my life,” he says. “Its so nice working 

with trainers who are so knowledgeable. They have such great 

energy. Everyone wants to be here,” he says. “The people are 

all awesome. It’s more of a full-body toning. Every month is 

different. They do it extremely well.”

chandeliers in every room, the staff is friendly and inviting. Soothing, 

soft new age piano music fills the air adding to the peaceful ambiance.

to facials and other beauty treatments. Dr. 

Mylissa Graber performs the injections

and the surrounding area her home. 

A native of Springfield, Massachusetts, 

Doreen moved to Miami as a child and 

would graduate from Florida Atlantic University 

with a B.A. in Corporate Management 

and a Minor in Marketing. 

While clerking for West Palm Beach 

judges and working part-time for established 

law firms in the area, Doreen literally 

“put herself” through school, earning 

a Law Degree from Nova Southeastern 

University in 1994. 

And the rest is history. 

The establishment of Yaffa & Associates, 

one of South Florida’s most recognized 

and successful Family Law firms, has en- 


abled Doreen to find the precious balance 

between office and family. 

When Doreen is not focusing on the 

needs of her growing clientele at her 

Boca Raton office, the priority becomes 

caring for her precious children and 

three dogs at home. 

It was Doreen’s passion for the “small 

town” feel of Delray Beach that has been 

and remains a significant part of her life. 

“I loved Delray from the very first time 

I came here. It reminded me of growing 

up in New England. I remember riding my 

bike in downtown Delray and playing Volleyball 

on the beach.” said Yaffa. 

“It’s always been about the great people 

here and still is,” said Yaffa. 

Delray Beach - a “perfect” venue to raise 

a family. 

Yaffa and her husband Jeff Wilson, a 

prominent area Real Estate professional, 

have successfully balanced successful careers 

with the joy of parenting. Just proves 

second marriages work. 

Their four kids all grew up in Delray 

and today remain active participants in 

recreational activities at both the college 

and high school level. 

Nineteen year old Amanda has excelled 

in collegiate Volleyball while achieving 

Dean’s List status at North Carolina’s 

Elon University. Meghan, 16, a junior at 

Spanish River High School in Boca Raton, 

has also been recognized for her standout 

Volleyball play. 

Spencer is a sixteen year old Spanish 

River 10th Grader who plays on the JV 

Football team while 14 year old Samantha, 

a student at Unity School in Delray Beach, 

is a champion Equestrian Rider who has 

competed in major regional events. 

Yaffa has always been a huge supporter 

of quality education for her children. “All 

my kids have attended Unity School in 

Delray with great results.” 

Two of the Yaffa children are also active 

participants in Teens of Pink Ribbons 

in Boca Raton, an organization that educates 

boys and girls on Breast Cancer issues 

and fosters an awareness of the disease 

and the role of Genetics, Prevention 

and Treatment. 

In addition, The Yaffa family supports 

the St. Jude’s Children Hospital and hosts 

numerous fundraising events that help 

terminally ill children and their families. 

And Doreen’s three lovable dogs remain 

significant family additions. “There’s 

Cabo, our 11 year old yellow lab, and Leo, 

a thirteen year old King Charles Terrier. 

Our newest addition is Blu, a five month 

old Blue French bulldog. 

To complement Doreen’s family responsibilities 

and busy schedule at work, 

there is quality time spent just cruising 

and fishing on the ocean aboard their 37 

Intrepid boat. 

For Doreen Yaffa, life couldn’t be better. 

“I feel so fortunate to love what I do and 

live in such a great area.”

The Man With Hands And Heart Of Gold 

By Diane Feen 

{ 

Photo by melissa korman 

If you haven’t heard of Marc Stevens you’re probably in the majority. 

That’s the way he likes it. 

Stevens is a behind the scenes kind of guy. He’s 

the person who makes sure the power is running at 

the Green Market, he puts up the tents for art shows, 

hangs the paintings at the Cornell Museum and does 

every and anything that needs to be done at the cultural 

intersection of life and liberty in Delray Beach. 

It’s been almost 20 years since Stevens first set 

foot in Old School Square (OSS). He came with extensive 

experience managing apartments, college 

housing and buildings. But while those might have 

been jobs, his trajectory at OSS is his occupation, 

preoccupation and his life. 

“I love Old School Square. It’s like a family; we’ve 

all been here so long. This is my life and I’d rather be 

here than anywhere else.” 

And that’s exactly where he is most days from 

5:30 am till dark. But one thing is constant – Stevens 

love of OSS and his ability to make others love 

it as well. 

“All of us who work here are focused on the guests 

who come here. Over 450,000 people visit a year 

and that’s why we do what we do. If people come 

through those doors and enjoy themselves then I 

feel like I’ve done a good job. I want them to want to 

come back again.” 

Those lofty goals weigh heavy on Steven’s consciousness. 

That’s why he is the person everyone 

can rely on to create sculptures, do lighting, make 

platforms, load and unload items for special events, 

refinish flooring and take remnants of past lives and 

repurpose them. 

But there’s one person who has left an indelible 

mark on Stevens’ life. It’s the person he first 

worked with, and the person who motivated him to 

create life-size sculptures from tiny doodles on paper 

napkins. “I wouldn’t be the same person without 

Joe Gillie. I learned about the arts from Joe, he 

taught me about the history of Delray, the founders 

and about friendship.” 

Gillie and Stevens were a perfect combination of 

creative genius and meticulous ingenuity. It was Gillie’s 

idea to create a Purple Octopus (for First Night) 

and a Dove Sculpture that Stevens toted to various 

parks and venues for a whole year. It was also Gillie’s 

idea to turn Cornell Museum into The Emerald City. 

Stevens did just that. 

“I created a yellow brick road and the front of the 

museum looked just like the Emerald City. Every 

room was a scene out of the Wizard of Oz (with a 

house that crashed from the sky). It was beautiful.” 

Stevens also created an eight-foot LOVE sculpture, 

a motorized Lighthouse and a stage for Dr. 

Ruth Westheimer that she took home with her for 

future appearances. 

There’s not much that Steven’s can’t create. And 

there’s not much ego attached to his being able to do 

so. You can tell by the vibe of his office. It is there that 

the gears turn in his transcendent psyche. And it is 

there that light bulbs, paper towels and Tupperware 

sit in a free-standing porcelain sink in front of his 

cluttered desk. 

There’s also a large framed portrait of a man that 

obviously had some pertinence to OSS at one time. 

Though he cuts a rather piercing glance in his suit, 

tie and distinguished glasses Stevens doesn’t think 

much about it. “No one knows who he is, every once 

in a while we hang him somewhere.” 

That’s the way it is with Stevens. He distributes 

his talent all over the OSS area and doesn’t think too 

hard about any of it. When finished with the interview 

he quips, “If you want to take all those notes 

and rip them up I’m fine with it.” 

But one gets the idea he does care – he just 

doesn’t enjoy being in the spotlight. He does, however 

like making items in or around the spotlight. 

“On New Years Eve we used a Genie Crane to lift a 

PVC ball with lights 120 feet in the air and dropped 

it from the museum. The first project I ever worked 

on at OSS was First Night and it’s one of the best 

things I’ve ever done.” 

92 


Those around him are not surprised. 

“Marc is genius in his ability to take the most 

rudimentary idea scribbled on paper and 

turn it into a masterpiece that is museum 

quality. He is patient, thoughtful, caring and 

has a sense of humor that is contagious! If 

anyone makes that cultural center run on a 

daily basis, it’s Marc!” said Joe Gillie. 

Green Market Guru Lori Nolan agrees. 

“Marc is an action man and the go-to guy at 

OSS to get things done. He is an incredible 

asset not only to Old School Square but Delray 

Beach as well. His kind and magnetic 

personality is always there to assist and he 

does so with a genuine smile on his face. To 

know Marc is to love Marc.” 

Nolan is right. The afterglow of hanging 

with Stevens is something akin to 

basking in a happy space. When he talks 

about those he loves there’s a feeling that 

his heart is beating outside his chest. The 

loves of his life are his rescue dog Mocha 

Bean (who has eaten up his possessions 

and his phone), his loving father James W. 

and mom Winnie. 

One gets the distinct feeling that Stevens’ 

love is pure and all- encompassing, which 

is what makes him such a Delray Treasure. 

But don’t tell him that. He might get embarrassed.

Banyan Restaurant & Bar 

BANYAN RESTAURANT & BAR 

Serene And Sublime Dining 

By Diane Feen 

Photos by Leila Mancini 

{There’s a sweet calm in Pineapple Grove these days, the smell 

of success is in the air. You can tell by the way new restaurants 

have opened up to much fanfare and fabulousness. 

Stout Braised Short Rib served with garlic mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetable and a stout reduction 

The newest kid on the block – in a culinary 

sense – is Banyan Restaurant & Bar. 

Owners Joseph LoRe and Miles Moriarty 

come from storied restaurant pasts (Moriarty’s 

family owned Minetta Tavern in NYC) 

and met when working at the Seagate Hotel. 

Chef James also has an illustrious past that 

includes Dada and the Seagate Hotel. 

When their creative forces are combined, 

this new colorful eclectic restaurant has an 

almost outer galactic feel. That is, if the galaxy 

specializes in homemade fresh food that 

combines flavor and substance to create a 

masterpiece. 

Not many people can make American food 

with a global heritage but these three masters 

of their universe have done so beautifully. 

The décor is also something to behold. 

The black and white hand-painted textured 

damask walls combined with red banquettes 

are only part of the infectious allure. Add that 

to the ghost chairs and crystal chandeliers 


The Apprentice: Buffalo Trace Bourbon, 

Chartreuse, Ramazzotti Amaro & lemon peel 

Mac & Cheese Trio: lobster with cream sauce, 

truffle parmesan and crab with gruyere 

Apple Cider Glazed Salmon with 

wild rice And seasonal vegetable 

and you have a homey place that invites you 

in with its indelible charm. 

That’s the way it was planned. LoRe 

thought long and hard about how to woo 

potential diners to Pineapple Grove amidst 

the tough competition nearby. And with their 

delightful framed mirror ceiling, colorful 

LED lit bar and outdoor seating under Delray 

Beach’s most famous Banyan tree it’s a slam 

dunk for anyone looking to enjoy a great 

meal in a beckoning atmosphere. 

If the décor doesn’t pull you in then the 

menu choices certainly will. How do Kobe 

Fois Gras sliders sound with Gruyere, arugula 

and white truffle aioli? The truth is that these 

could actually be the best sliders to come 

along with a gourmet taste that will captivate 

the most discerning palate. Another spectacular 

starter is the Maryland Crab Bites, made 

of pure crabmeat in a secret recipe cooked up 

by Maryland native Chef James. 

The Blackened Scallops with mango chutney 

is also outstanding. There’s no skimping 

on quality in this restaurant that Moriarty 

said was created so people would enjoy 

themselves in a nurturing environment with 

a synergistic vibe. 

It seems their mission has been accomplished. 

Everything is fresh - there’s no freezer 

on the premises. Instead you will find entrees 

like Stout Braised Short Ribs with garlic 

mashed potatoes, seasonal vegetables and 

a stout reduction. According to Chef James 

this dish is braised for six hours in stout. 

You’ll taste its slow simmering pedigree the 

moment you bite into this sublime dish. The 

same goes for the Apple Cider Glazed Salmon 

with wild rice and seasonal vegetables. 

To anchor all this serious culinary greatness 

comes side dishes that will make you hum with 

delight. Did you ever hear of lightly fried Cauliflower? 

Neither did I. But you’re in for a treat 

when you taste them. It’s the vegetable your 

parents always knew you would love with all 

the anti-oxidants and vitamins that your doctor 

would get out a pen and prescribe. Also terrific 

are their uniquely divine Brussels Sprouts 

in a bacon and sweet ginger soy marinade. 

When asked how they came up with this 

superb sprout creation Chef James said, “We 

thought about how to make something like 

Brussels Sprouts that we hated as kids, taste 

delicious.” Mission accomplished. 

There are other missions that these three 

pioneers have accomplished. The Banyan 

Burger is one of them. Made with Kobe and 

Wagyu beef, Fois Gras, Gruyere, Arugula and 

shaved white Truffle, this burger has a designer 

pedigree that’s rare in these parts. “The 

Banyan Burger is the most decadent Burger 

you can imagine. We use one ounce of Fois 

Gras and four shaves of white truffle (shaved 

tableside) it’s pretty amazing,” said LoRe. 

LoRe is right, the Burger is amazing but so 

is the entire operation. They have USB ports 

and outlets under the bar, hooks to hang 

purses or bags and a bar manager (and mixologist) 

with an encyclopedic thought process. 

Their specialty cocktail menu includes 

old staples and imaginative new recipes like 

the French 75, Aviation, Jalapeno Sunsets, 

Blood & Sand with a twist (scotch and mezcal) 

and a Pineapple Grove Margarita. 

If you love Beer, this is heaven. There’s 

Watermelon Saison Beer (from Palm Beach 

Gardens), Mega Mix Pale Ale (from Miami) 

and Copperpoint (from Boynton Beach). The 

drink menu is comprehensive and includes 

bottle beer as well as a full selection of wines, 

champagne and amazing top cellar wine by 

the bottle options. 

The Brunch menu includes a Benedict Trio 

of Crab, Short Rib or Lobster and flatbreads 

with Spaghetti Squash and Pistachio with 

Ricotta, Meatball and Short Rib, Shrimp and 

Crab Alfredo and more. They also serve lunch 

amidst the Banyan tree and the sunshine 

with dishes like a Mac Trio (Truffle Parm, 

Crab, Classic Cheddar or Lobster), Taco Trios, 

Crab Cakes, Flatbreads, Salads and Sandwiches 

(even a fresh lobster roll). 

Since happiness is a high priority at this 

new haute spot they have live music Tuesday 

and Wednesday nights, a Jazz Brunch Sundays 

(10:30 to 3), daily specials and Happy Hour 

(from 2 to 6) with half price drinks and dishes. 

And that’s not all, the mirrors on the walls 

in the dining room turn into Flat Screen TV’s 

with the twist of the wrist and the charm just 

oozes from every pore of this restaurant. Everything 

on the menu is fresh and made to 

order and everyone who works there has one 

goal – to make you happy. 

How can you beat that?

MISC ║ ask the petxpert 

We are constantly asked why all the 

cutting edge protocols and “treatments” 

developed or introduced 

by us actually work and involve going back 

to nature? We understand that all disease is 

caused by only two things, deficiency (malnutrition) 

and toxicity (poison). We understand 

that correcting those two things will allow the 

body to heal. Nature has provided our planet 

with everything humans and pets alike need 

to survive, such as water and food sources 

from animals, poultry, fish and even plants. 

Our quest to find optimal health and healing 

has opened many doors leading to the 

healthiest foods and diets for all creatures 

along with the healthiest and most beneficial 

micro-foods such as herbs, spices and botanicals 

that provide micro-nutrients and detoxification 

for the body. It is most important that 

all of these products get the proper preparation 

in order to achieve their best benefit. 

Due to recent changes in government 

regulations, we are now able to use and 

provide one of natures’ miracle food components, 

cannabidiol hemp oil, otherwise 

known as “CBD” Oil or “CBD” Hemp Oil. Unlike 

it’s cousin, these hemp oil products are 

non-psychoactive. In hemp, CBD dominates 

the plant’s makeup. CBD interacts with the 

body’s naturally occurring systems, but is 

ask the petXpert 

What is CBD and how does it 

benefit our pets? 

These pets are available for adoption 

non-psychotropic, it doesn’t contain THC or 

cause a high. This makes it safe and offers 

significant health benefits. 

So many of our pets and even family 

members suffer from cancer, anxiety, pain, 

stress, post-surgery discomfort, inflammation, 

allergies, asthma, neurological disorders, 

seizures, drug withdrawal, appetite 

suppression, insomnia and more. Found in 

all mammals, the endocannabinoid system is 

made up of millions of cannabinoid receptor 

sites located primarily throughout the brain 

and central nervous system (CB1 receptors) 

and immune system (CB2 receptors) that act 

in neural communication. 

CBD interacts within the body through 

the endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS) 

or endocannabinoid system. Discovered in 

the late 1980’s, the endocannabinoid system 

regulates the body’s homeostasis, or general 

state of balance, impacting such functions as 

mood, sleep, appetite, hormone regulation, 

along with pain and immune response. It also 

increases oxygenation of the blood which is 

important especially when exercising. 

We are finding that when CBD is used in an 

integrated nutritional program of species appropriate 

diets, natural herbs and botanicals, 

it promotes healing and relief of unwanted 

symptoms. Many of the challenges mentioned 

above suddenly, without warning or 

even medical understanding just disappear. 

As we have stated here and in the past, 

nature has answers that many have not explored 

and can do amazing things. Foods 

bring us nutrients but also remove toxins 

which is why vomit and diarrhea are 

healthy responses, not an illness. The understanding 

of the biodynamics of the body, 

whether it be ours or those of our pets 

and even the animals that we use for food, 

is critical. We need to require our doctors 

and veterinarians to be versed and able to 

explain biodynamics to us. If not, then we 

need seek those that can. 

We all want our pets and families to be 

healthy. Everyone deserves it and it can be 

achieved through a healthier protocol minus 

the excessive use of medicine, pharmaceuticals 

and chemicals manufactured and promoted 

by corporations primarily to enhance 

their business model.
