from the 

editor 

September is here - and I’m excited! This month 

begins with Labor Day on the 4th, football 

season officially starts on September 7th, and 

on the 22nd it is the first day of Fall - PUMPKIN 

EVERYTHING! This is usually the calm before 

the (snowbird) storm! We locals get to enjoy 

one more month of less crowds in our favorite 

places before we welcome back our seasonal residents. 

For great ideas of fairs, festivals, exhibits, activities, and dining 

around town check out our Happenings page, and our Delray 

Under $50. Darien Davies has many suggestions of things to do 

and places dine that won’t break the bank. 

Our City Person this month is Jacqueline Botting - an Idealist 

and founder of a humanitarian movement called WiseTribe. “We 

need to move from fear to wisdom,” she says - and she is right! 

Her thoughts and accomplishments are inspiring and WiseTribe 

brings people together to form communities, communicate, 

and collaborate in problem solving. We need more people like 

Jacqueline in the world. 

Italian cuisine is one of my favorites, and this month Diane Feen 

visits Rocky’s Italian Bistro and Bar. For 17 years Rocky’s has been 

a regular stop for many Delray residents. His amazing cuisine that 

Diane is so lucky to sample is why! And on the weekends there’s 

entertainment too! Read about Diane’s dining experience in our 

Restaurant Review. 

That’s all for now! 

Have a great and safe Labor Day! 

Try to 

remember 

the kind of 

September 

when life was 

slow and oh 

so mellow... 

- Tom Jones 

And just a reminder...there are 123 shopping days ‘till Christmas!

Braswell while cycling for fallen heroes. The 

2017 Ride was dedicated to 20 Fallen Heroes

by cycling through the state of Florida in 7 

days, covering over 600 miles and average 

80-100 miles a day. The ride began on July 

23rd from North Naples, FL. and traveled up 

the west coast, over to the central part of the 

state, then down the east coast and ended 

on July 29th in Miami, FL. They stayed and 

ate meals at Elks Lodges along the way. The 

Brotherhood Ride is a non-profit charity organization, 

which consists of Firefighters, 

Law Enforcement Officers and EMS personnel. 

Their mission is to provide emotional 

and financial support to the families on or 

near the anniversary of their death.

is one of the Chamber’s most meaningful 

and rewarding events. We welcomed our 

brand new teachers to our Delray Beach 

schools this year, heard from Principals 

about their challenges and successes and 

got a feel for Delray Beach’s education system. 

All Delray Beach Principals and new 

teachers were showered with “Oprah Moment” 

gifts: backpacks filled with school 

supplies, flowers, and gift cards. 

The keynote speaker, Bill Bone, who is

Holiday Gift 

Shoppe At 

Holly House 

Lucy Moreau, jewelry designer, is teaching 

Gail Benson the art of jewelry making 

Because of the construction at First 

Presbyterian Church Delray Beach, this 

year the traditional Holiday Bazaar will 

be offering new opportunities for holiday 

shopping sprees. We will open a “Holiday 

Gift Shoppe at Holly House” on September 

5. Shoppers will be invited to the The Holly 

House Gift Shoppe on Tuesday and Thursday 

mornings between, 10:00 and noon, 

while “elves” busily work on a broad array 

of new gifts. The Holiday Gift Shoppe will 

be open after services on Sunday mornings 

in October from 11:00 – 12:00. 

New this year are the jewelry designers, 

“Beads Gone Wild.” Lucy Mureau, an 

experienced jewelry maker, has formed 

a team that has created unique necklaces, 

bracelets, and earrings. 

A magnificent Christmas Village is 

available for sale. Individual items or the 

whole set is available for sale. Call for an 

appointment to see it. 

Because the construction will limit 

access to the Holly House, we are offering 

a wider array of products over a 

longer period of time. Red, white and 

blue decorations are available for Labor 

Day, Columbus Day, and the rest of the 

national holidays. Fall, Halloween, and 

Thanksgiving decorations are available. 

Since the workshop continues during 

the shopping season, shoppers will want 

to make several trips to see what’s new.

Years Of Music 

At St. Paul’s

St. Paul’s has been presenting the best in 

classical chamber music in Delray Beach. 

The 2017-2018 season is no exception. 

Music Director Dr. Paul Cienniwa says, 

“One of the hallmarks of Music at St. Paul’s 

is our ability to present great classical musicians 

from South Florida while also bringing 

in talent from outside the community. 

“The series also has a couple of keyboard 

duos with musicians from outside 

the area. Duo Beaux Arts will perform a 

program of music for piano four hands, 

and German harpsichordist Michael 

Bahmann will join me in a two-harpsichord 

version of Bach’s Art of the Fugue 

(March 18). The March 18 concert will 

be followed by a gala reception to celebrate 

our 30th Anniversary. 

“The 2017-2018 season also includes two 

annual favorites: an Advent Service of Lessons 

& Carols with the Choirs of St. Paul’s 

(Dec. 17) and St. Paul’s in-house baroque 

ensemble Camerata del Ré in a program of 

Bach arias, with soprano Adriana Ruiz and 

countertenor Edgar Sanfeliz Botta.” 

All concerts are on Sundays at 3pm, 

and most will be preceded by a lecture at 

2:30pm. The suggested donation is $20, 

and children 18 and under may attend 

for free. Advance tickets are available online 

(www.music.stpaulsdelray.org) or by 

calling 561-278-6003. Tickets will also be 

available at the door on the day of the concert. 

St. Paul’s is handicapped accessible. 

The first concert is Con Brio String 

Quartet on Sunday, September 17, 3pm, 

pre-concert lecture at 2:30pm. For more

In their own words 

Engel & Völkers 

Lisa Stone, realtor ® 

As a native New Yorker, I have called South Florida my home for over 

30 years and have seen South Florida evolve. After a successful 

20 year career in the Healthcare Industry, owning one of the top 

10 software companies in the US and countless contacts in the community, 

transitioning to a career in Real Estate was natural for me to do so. I 

pride myself on my 3 core values, Competence, Exclusivity, and Passion. 

Real Estate has always been a passion of mine and I truly enjoy creating 

long lasting relationships. Throughout my career, it’s always been about 

the client and the high level of service. In real estate, it’s the difference 

you make in the lives of others in order to establish and sustain each 

relationship. It is that distinction that gives people the confidence to 

put their trust in me to assist them in finding the right property for them 

regardless of their lifestyle: coastal, family or golf and country club communities, 

I have extensive knowledge of Delray Beach, Boca Raton and 

Parkland. Living in South Florida offers a great lifestyle. In my spare 

time, I enjoy gardening, exercise, tennis, walking the fabulous beaches, 

exploring the great cities of South Florida and my greatest joy, sharing 

great times with family and friends. Feel free to call me. It would be my 

pleasure to answer any questions!

The Meridian Art 

Experience (The mAe) 

Susan Romaine, Gallery Owner/Artist 

I 

moved to Delray Beach from Charleston, South Carolina in 2014, 

and succeeded in both worlds of business and art. In finance, I was 

responsible for the placement of new retirement fund investment assets 

and the management of existing client relationships, as well as the 

development and introduction of pooled investment funds - bringing in 

over a half billion dollars in new assets under management from corporate 

retirement and municipal bond issuers. During this time I became 

an avid collector of fine art produced by emerging and mid-career artists. 

I began my professional art career in 2000 and have enjoyed considerable 

success with over 400 of my works added to private, corporate 

and Museum collections. In 2003, I was named artist in residence at 

Charleston’s Gibbes Museum and accepted through a jury process as 

a member of Oil Painters of America. A book of my paintings and photography 

by Jack Alterman, “Cornices of Charleston,” was published in 

2005. My love of art led her to partner with Jim Blumenfeld, opening 

the Meridian Art Experience (The mAe Gallery, Art services and Consultation) 

in Delray Beach. I am also represented by galleries in Jupiter, 

Florida and Santa Fe, New Mexico.

& MED SPA 

Matthew Goodwin, md 

My passion for compassionate patient care and drive to achieve 

exceptional results has been the guiding principle in my career. 

I’m a board certified plastic surgeon practicing in the Boca/ 

Delray area for over 10 years specializing in cosmetic and reconstructive 

plastic surgery. I received my undergraduate degree from Princeton and 

my medical school degree from Yale University. My extensive surgical 

training background along with my practice experience - provides me the 

opportunity to share realistic procedural information with my patients to 

help them make an informed decision with their care plan options. I’m 

extremely fortunate to be a part of the enhancement process that occurs 

for many of our cosmetic patients and I’m especially grateful to 

use my skills for humanitarian efforts to help those affected by trauma, 

reconstructive breast surgery, and victims involved in natural disasters. 

One of the core values we share at Inspire Cosmetic Surgery that I’m 

most proud of - is the work with compassionate charities that allow us to 

share our surgical skills with less fortunate individuals around the world 

with the intent to enhance their lives in any way we can. These types of 

values along with our patient safety focus are some of the reasons the 

team at Inspire Cosmetic Surgery is proud to be a part of Delray Beach.

Posh properties 

Michael brito, Realtor ® 

My name is Michael Brito and I am proud to join Posh Properties 

as a seasoned real estate agent, bringing decades of knowledge 

and diverse experience to the team. After first obtaining 

my real estate license in 1989, I spent more than 20 years selling 

homes in Washington State, with a focus on residential new construction, 

representing both homebuyers and developers. Sunshine and blue 

skies then brought me to Florida in 2011, where I planned to explore 

new opportunities, but soon found the real estate arena calling my 

name once again. I chose Posh Properties because I was struck by their 

professionalism and commitment to customer service, which have always 

been the foundation of my business practices. The home-buying 

process can be stressful and I take great pleasure in simplifying this 

process for Homesellers and Buyers. Call me for more information with 

regards to selling your home, investment property or purchasing real 

estate here in South Florida.

thermae retreat 

Charlene Daley 

I 

have always been passionate about health and helping people as 

well as educating them to achieve wellbeing on the outside as well 

as on the inside! I am a firm believer that beauty starts from within, 

along with the importance of using the best Organic ingredients. Having 

grown up in the Bahamas, I had many experiences with the healing 

aspects of plants. I am overjoyed to be working at such a special place 

as Thermae Retreat with its healing atmosphere and with an amazing 

woman like Kelly Doyle. Kelly had the foresight and vision to nestle this 

oasis right here in lovely Delray Beach. It is a treat for me to not only 

have the pleasure of performing a custom or specialty facial on my client; 

but to offer them the ability to relax and detox in the saunas at Thermae, 

before we even begin our journey in the facial room. Thermae is a 

special place to work and has such great energy. Everyone that walks 

through our front doors seems to be drawn in; it brings out such wonderful 

energy in them, we become one! It is truly so special and rewarding 

to be a part of Thermae Retreat.

locals only | delray under $50 

By Darien Davies 

Delray Under $50 

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 September for $50 or less. 

People skills: sometimes you have them, sometimes you don’t. 

But, good news is that you just need to fake it till you make it. 

September is International People Skills Month, and if you like 

the idea of having a movie night with some friends, but don’t want 

to have to entertain pre- and post-movie, then bring the party outside 

with a few thousand of your closest buddies. Welcome to the Cult 

Classic Film Series at the Crest Theatre and enjoy three movies this 

month for only $5 each. The good news is that these are movies that 

you actually want to see, and include The Blues Brothers on September 

1, Animal House and Old School (double feature) on September 

8 and Airplane! on September 15. General admission tickets are only 

$5, but you can spring for VIP tickets for $15, which include balcony 

seating, one drink, one food item, and “text for bar service” option. Old 

School Square joined forces with Delivery Dudes so you know this is 

going to be a highly fun time, so don’t miss out. Doors open at 7 p.m., 

movie starts at 8 p.m. and there’s a snack and draft beer station for 

your munchie pleasure. To top it off, costumes are encouraged and 

prizes will be awarded at intermission. Visit www.oldschoolsquare. 

org or call (561) 243-7922 for more information. 

If you love your beach, you must pamper it and make sure it stays 

clean and happy. (No one likes a dirty beach.) September 15 

through 17 is Clean Up the World Weekend so instead of tackling 

the entire world in one weekend, let’s start in our own backyard. The 

32nd Annual Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup is 

held Saturday, September 16 and you and your friends will be a part 

of the world’s largest one-day volunteer event of its kind. Almost 12 

million people combine efforts and volunteer to protect the ocean 

simply by cleaning up the trash that is littering the coastline. According 

to Ocean Conservancy, plastic has been found in 62 percent of 

all sea birds and in 100 percent of sea turtle species, which means 

that the beach and our ocean friends need our help. The Cleanup is 

held from 8 to 10 a.m. and you can join your neighbors at the Sandoway 

House to begin your volunteer efforts. Don’t forget to bring your 

bathing suits and a cooler so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor 

afterward. The Sandoway House is located at 142 S. Ocean Blvd. and 

all supplies will be provided. Visit www.mydelraybeach.com or call 

(561) 274-7263 for more information. 

There’s no need to go snarfing for truffles, my fellow mind-altered 

friends. Lucky for us, we have a shroom-tastic restaurant 

in our local forest that is dishing up the goodgood. September 

is National Mushroom Month and is the perfect time to either indulge 

in this Earthly favorite or rekindle your forgotten romance. If 

you weren’t aware, there are many mushrooms that are good sources 

of antioxidants, niacin, potassium, phosphorous, protein, Vitamin C 

and iron, which is on top of tasting ridiculously delicious. To get your 

mushroom fix in one location, head to Mellow Mushroom and enjoy 

a complete mushroom-ized experience. Take a stab at the mushroom 

club hoagie with ham, Applewood smoked bacon, provolone or Swiss, 

caramelized onions, grilled mushrooms, mayo, lettuce and roma tomatoes 

for $9.99. Or, enjoy the vegetarian holy shiitake pie, made 

with an olive oil and garlic base with shiitake, 

button and Portobello mushrooms, 

caramelized onions, mozzarella 

and MontAmore, finished 

with a garlic aioli swirl 

and a spritz of black 

truffle oil for only 

$12.99 for the small 

size. If you’d like a 

lighter fare, enjoy 

the delicious vegetarian 

magic mushroom 

soup, made with 

burgundy wine, herbs, 


MontAmore, grilled shiitake, button and Portobello mushrooms 

and fresh chives for only $4.79. Whatever your mushroom pleasure, 

Mellow Mushroom is guaranteed to be the fungus amongus 

that we can’t live without. Mellow Mushroom is located 

at 25 S.E. Sixth Ave. Visit www.mellowmushroom.com or call 

(561) 330-3040 for more information. 

Although I look like a dude in a hat, I still like ‘em. September 

is Fall Hat Month so if you don’t have a hat, go out there 

a get one. It protects your face from the sun, complements 

your brunch outfit, and provides a little anonymity (my favorite). 

Once you have the hat, I’ve got you covered: the 23rd Annual 

Craft Festival. Held September 23 and 24, you’ll have a chance 

to peruse the offerings from numerous vendors, including mixed 

media, jewelry, pottery, wood, painting, books, paper art, photography, 

sculpture, home goods and more. The event is held from 

10 a.m. to 4 p.m. both days and entrance is free, which leaves you 

plenty of available mula to spend on the perfect addition to your 

home, office or person (possibly another hat?). Who knows, you 

might even get inspired for DIY holiday gifts or Fall decorations 

for the home. The Festival is located at the intersection of Fourth 

Avenue and Atlantic Avenue, which is a great central location to 

also meander the Avenue afterward and grab a cocktail. Take the 

hat out for a stroll, you’ll both enjoy it. Visit www.artfestival.com 

or call (561) 746-6615 for more information. 

Paleo this, vegan that, anti-carbs for life, or juicing everything 

in sight doesn’t add up unless you have variation. 

“Everything in moderation” as my aunt, the dietician, used 

to say. (I never included alcohol in this mix, just FYI.) The main dietary 

goal we should all focus on is adding more fruit and veggies 

to our meals. September is National Fruit and Veggies Month and 

if you’re not inspired to stuff your face with fruit and vegetables, 

then Bedner’s Farm Fresh Market will help get you there. They 

practice sustainable agriculture, which is a way of producing food 

that’s not only healthy to eat, but that doesn’t harm the environment, 

respects animals and supports and enhances the local 

community. They invite you to get involved with your food, and 

know the people who grow and sell it. And get involved you will. 

When you enter Bedner’s, you’ll feel like everything you purchase 

is good for you, including the fresh produce to the pre-made salads 

and packaged meals. It almost feels like they use magic fertilizer 

because their radishes, arugula, cilantro, peppers, beets, 

asparagus, citrus fruit, etc. all look healthier and more tasty than 

at other grocery stores. Getting your full dose of vegetables and 

fruit will never be easier and tastier, I guarantee it. Bedner’s Farm 

Fresh Market is located at 381 N.E. Third Ave. Visit www.bedners. 

com or call (561) 501-5177 for more information.

My 9/11 Experience 

By harvey lustig 

Thousands of people have 9/11 stories. 

This is mine. 

Every year on 9/11 I think about 

how so many families were hurt on that 

day and are still hurting. I also think about 

my younger brother Gary, who was a Lieutenant 

in the New York City Fire Department. 

On that day, Gary’s son - my nephew 

- was a rookie Fireman stationed in Staten 

Island, like his father. 

It all started that awful morning. I was in 

my home in Coral Springs, FL, getting ready 

to go to work. My daughter, Fern, who was 

living in Stuart, FL, called me and told me 

to turn on the television. She said the US 

was being attacked. You know what I saw 

on TV? We’ve all seen it a thousand times. 

I was glued to the television watching it 

unfold. It was horrible. I watched for approximately 

2 hours. Then I heard the Fire 

Department calling all Firefighters from all 

over NY to report to Lower Manhattan immediately. 

I jumped up knowing my brother 

and my nephew were probably called. 

I immediately tried calling my brother, 

but got no answer. So I called my sisterin-law 

Fran in Staten Island to get information, 

but all she knew was what being 

reported on the television. She had 

not heard from my brother or nephew. 

It was a scary time for all of us. I kept in 

touch with her all day and night and into 

the next morning. Needless to say, none 

of us were able to sleep. About 3am the 

next morning, Fran called me to say she 

finally heard from them and they were ok. 

My brother and nephew got there about 

15 minutes after Tower 2 was hit and 

went down. They could not use their cell 

phones. Both my brother and nephew did 

not leave Ground Zero, or get any rest for 

another 2 days. 

My family was lucky that day except 

for the lung problems my brother now 

has to this day. We feel for all the families 

that were not so lucky. My brother is 

now retired and my nephew went on to 

become the youngest Captain in the New 

York City Fire Department. 

Some sad stories: My brother and his 

partner, both Lieutenants in Staten Island 

both took the exam for promotion to 

Captain. Something went wrong with the 

test and everyone had to take it over. My 

brother decided not to take it again, but 

his partner did and became a Captain. 

As a Captain, he was assigned his own 

Fire House to run in Lower Manhattan. 

He was a First Responder and died while 

helping people at Ground Zero. Half of 

my nephew’s rookie class were assigned 

to Lower Manhattan and many of them 

also died helping people. It was pure luck 

that my nephew was assigned to a Fire 

House in Staten Island after training. 

Whenever I visit Manhattan, I always 

wear a NYC Fire Department hat in memory 

of all that perished and all that helped on 

that day we will never forget.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind 

40th Anniversary Release 

Close Encounters of the Third Kind is 

back!! In December 1977 It was the sixth 

feature film directed (and written by) Steven 

Spielberg. This time it is presented in 

4K and available for one week only starting 

September 1. Starring Richard Dreyfuss, 

Teri Garr, Melinda Dillon, Bob Balaban, 

François Truffaut, Warren Kemmerling, 

and Cary Guffey. 

Renegades is about a team of Navy 

SEALs on assignment in war-torn Europe 

who discover a treasure of gold at the bottom 

of a lake. In an effort to return the money 

to its rightful owners they are detected 

by the enemy and left with only 10 hours to 

carry out their mission. The film stars J.K. 

Simmons and Sullivan Stapleton, and is directed 

by Steven Quale (Final Destination 5, 

Into the Storm) and is an original story written 

by Luc Besson (Taken, Lucy). 


Home Again stars Reese Witherspoon as 

Alice Kinney in a modern romantic comedy. 

Michael Sheen plays her husband. HOME 

AGAIN is a story of love, friendship, and the 

families we create. And one very big life lesson: 

Starting over is not for beginners. 

It directed by Andy Muschietti (“Mama”), 

is based on the hugely popular Stephen 

King novel of the same name, which has 

been terrifying readers for decades. When 

children begin to disappear in the town 

of Derry, Maine, a group of young kids are 

faced with their biggest fears when they 

square off against an evil clown named 

Pennywise, whose history of murder and 

violence dates back for centuries. 


All I See Is You is the story of a blind 

woman and her husband. When her sight 

unexpectedly returns, she begins to discover 

the previously unseen and disturbing 

details about themselves, their marriage 

and their lives. Starring Yvonne Strahovski, 

Blake Lively, Jason Clarke. 

American Assassin follows the rise of 

Mitch Rapp (Dylan O’Brien) a CIA black ops 

recruit under the instruction of Cold War 

veteran Stan Hurley (Michael Keaton). The 

pair is then enlisted by CIA Deputy Director 

Irene Kennedy (Sanaa Lathan) to investigate 

a wave of apparently random attacks 

on both military and civilian targets. 

Mother! A couple’s relationship is tested 

when uninvited guests arrive at their 

home, disrupting their tranquil existence. 

From filmmaker Darren Aronofsky (Black 

Swan, Requiem for a Dream), Mother! 

stars Jennifer Lawrence, Javier Bardem, Ed 

Harris and Michelle Pfeiffer in this riveting 

psychological thriller about love, devotion 

and sacrifice. 


Kingsman: The Golden Circle 

“Kingsman: The Secret Service” introduced 

the world to Kingsman - an independent, 

international intelligence agency 

operating at the highest level of discretion, 

whose ultimate goal is to keep the world 

safe. In “Kingsman: The Golden Circle,” our 

heroes face a new challenge. When their 

headquarters are destroyed and the world 

is held hostage, their journey leads them to 

the discovery of an allied spy organization 

in the US called Statesman, dating back to 

the day they were both founded. In a new 

adventure that tests their agents’ strength 

and wits to the limit, these two elite secret 

organizations band. Stars Colin Firth, Julianne 

Moore, Taron Egerton to name a few. 

The LEGO Ninjago Movie Ninjas, samurais, 

and sensei fight side-by-side against 

dragons, armies of snake men, and a oncebanished 

warlord who is now seeking to 

return to power. Stars Justin Theroux, Olivia 

Munn, Jackie Chan. 


American Made Barry Seal, a TWA pilot, 

is recruited by the CIA to provide reconnaissance 

on the burgeoning communist threat 

in Central America and soon finds himself in 

charge of one of the biggest covert CIA operations 

in the history of the United States 

that spawned the birth of the Medellin cartel 

and eventually almost brought down the 

Reagan White House with the Iran Contra 

scandal. Starring Tom Cruise, Domhnall 

Gleeson, Sarah Wright. 

Flatliners where five medical students, 

hoping to gain insight into the mystery of 

what lies beyond the confines of life, embark 

on a daring and dangerous experiment.

Released September 5, 2017 

New York Times bestselling author 

Adam Silvera reminds us that there’s 

no life without death and no love without 

loss in this devastating yet uplifting story 

about two people whose lives change over 

the course of one unforgettable day. 

On September 5, a little after midnight, 

Death-Cast calls Mateo Torrez and Rufus 

Emeterio to give them some bad news: 

They’re going to die today. Mateo and Rufus 

are total strangers, but, for different reasons, 

they’re both looking to make a new 

friend on their End Day. The good news: 

There’s an app for that. It’s called the Last

The Four 

Tendencies: The 

Indispensable 

Personality Profiles 

That Reveal How 

to Make Your Life 

Better (and Other 

People’s Lives 

Better, Too) 

by Gretchen Rubin 


In this groundbreaking analysis of personality 

type, bestselling author of “Better 

Than Before” and “The Happiness Project,” 

Gretchen Rubin reveals the one simple 

question that will transform what you do 

at home, at work, and in life. 

During her multibook investigation into 

understanding human nature, Gretchen 

Rubin realized that by asking the seemingly 

dry question “How do I respond to expectations?” 

we gain explosive self-knowledge. 

She discovered that based on their answer, 

people fit into Four Tendencies: Upholders, 

Questioners, Obligers, and Rebels. Our tendency 

shapes every aspect of our behavior, 

so using this framework allows us to make 

better decisions, meet deadlines, suffer 

less stress, and engage more effectively. 

More than 600,000 people have taken 

her online quiz, and managers, doctors, 

teachers, spouses, and parents already use 

the framework to help people make significant, 

lasting change. 

The Four Tendencies hold practical answers 

if you’ve ever thought... 

• People can rely on me, but I can’t rely 

on myself. 

• How can I help someone to follow good 

advice? 

• People say I ask too many questions. 

• How do I work with someone who refuses 

to do what I ask—or who keeps telling 

me what to do? 

With sharp insight, compelling research, 

and hilarious examples, The Four Tendencies 

will help you get happier, healthier, 

more productive, and more creative. It’s 

far easier to succeed when you know what 

works for you. 

Wicked Deeds 

by Heather Graham 


Eager to start their life together, historian 

Vickie Preston and Special Agent Griffin 

Pryce take a detour en route to their 

new home in Virginia and stop for a visit 

in Baltimore. But their romantic weekend 

is interrupted when a popular author is 

found dead in the basement of an Edgar Allan 

Poe themed restaurant. Because of the 

mysterious circumstances surrounding the 

corpse, the FBI’s Krewe of Hunters paranormal 

team is invited to investigate. As 

more bizarre deaths occur, Vickie and Griffin 

are drawn into a case that has disturbing 

echoes of Poe’s great works, bringing 

the horrors of his fiction to life. 

The restaurant is headquarters to scholars 

and fans, and any of them could be a 

merciless killer. Except there’s also something 

reaching out from beyond the grave. 

The late, great Edgar Allan Poe himself 

is appearing to Vickie in dreams and visions 

with cryptic information about the 

murders. Unless they can uncover whose 

twisted mind is orchestrating the dramatic 

re-creations, Vickie and Griffin’s future as a 

couple might never begin…

job is to keep the starlet safe and track

Sahara receives news that her estranged 

mother has been murdered and her father,

Roger Waters 

Us + Them 

Roger Waters brought his Us + Them tour to the American Airlines 

Arena on this warm Thursday night in South Florida. 

At the halfway point of a 47 city North American tour, the 

73 year old Pink Floyd founding member treated the near capacity 

crowd to a 2 ½ hour show of Pink Floyd staples and new solo 

music. In typical Pink Floyd fashion the arena had speakers hung 

throughout, projecting sound in every direction. To compliment 

the auditory barrage were visually mesmerizing wall to wall high 

definition video screens. Waters’ stage show blended videos, film 

shorts, and visual effects along with lasers that at one point created 

the illusion of a pyramid hanging over the audience. 

The nine piece band that is out on tour with Waters is a mix of 

longtime members along with new additions including backup vocalists 

Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig from the acclaimed indie pop 

band Lucius. The mix of musicians is everything a Pink Floyd fan 

could want. 

The first set started with “Breathe” along with more from “Dark 

Side Of The Moon.” Included also were tracks from “Meddle” and 

“Wish You Were Here.” The first set ended with Waters doing four 

cuts from his new album “Is This The Life We Really Want.” The 

second set combined songs from “The Wall,” “Animals” and another 

healthy dose of “Dark Side.” 

With all of that behind them, Waters and band exited the stage to 

a standing ovation. After a brief pause the multigenerational audience 

were rewarded when Waters and company reappeared from 

the dark and sent the arena home “Comfortably Numb.”

Healing with Light 

The therapeutic use of light, photobiomodulation (PBM), has been 

utilized in Europe for over 40 years and recently gained FDA clearance 

in the United States in 2002. In essence it is the use of specific 

wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to create therapeutic 

effects in damaged tissue through the enhanced metabolism of local 

cells, increased blood flow, and increased immunity. 

Improved healing time, pain reduction, 

increased circulation, and decreased 

swelling are just some of the positive 

effects experienced by most patients. This 

cutting edge technology is revolutionizing 

the treatment protocols of simple strain/ 

sprains to chronic debilitating joint and 

disc disorders. 

A laser is any device which can be made 

to produce or amplify electromagnetic radiation 

in wavelengths ranging from 180 

nm to 1 mm by the process of controlled 

stimulated emission. These wavelengths 

of light contain tiny particles called photons. 

These photons stimulate certain 

receptors or sensors on the mitochondria 

in cells thus enhancing energy production 

and metabolism. The type of cells affected 

depends on the tissue which is targeted by 

the laser. For example, in individuals with 

acute or chronic lower back pain the cells 

affected include those in the spinal joints 

and discs as well as the ligaments and tendons 

that surround the spine. This ensures 

healing at the level of the injury and not 

just a masking of the symptoms. 

Laser technology is classified based on 

the wavelengths of light that the unit is 

able to produce as well as the power it is 

able to emit. The larger the wavelengths of 

light the greater the penetrating depth into 

the tissue and therefore the more effective 

the treatment. Shorter wavelengths of 

light treat more superficial injuries whereas 

longer wavelengths treat deeper injuries 

including fractures. The power emitted by 

the unit also has a large impact on treatment 

time, healing time, and overall success. 

Generally more power equates too 

faster treatment times and most importantly 

shorter healing times. Which means 

the patient gets better faster. Classes range 

from I-IV. Class IV lasers usually emit from 

5-12 watts of power and offer longer wavelength 

capabilities. The Conde Center For 

Chiropractic Neurology offers Class IV laser 

technology. 

Effectiveness of laser therapy has been 

demonstrated scientifically. In-fact there 

are thousands of published studies demonstrating 

the clinical effectiveness of laser 

therapy. Among these, there are more than 

one hundred rigorously controlled scientific 

studies that document the effectiveness 

of laser therapy for many clinical musculoskeletal 

conditions. Laser therapy can benefit 

conditions ranging from carpal tunnel 

syndrome to knee pain to back pain.

The Liquid Face Lift 

During the anti-aging and wellness revolution, ultramodern 

aesthetic techniques have evolved to restore youth and 

vibrancy back for millions of people, without surgery. In 

fact, gentle face lifting and volume restoration can be 

obtained painlessly for some patients in less than 45 

minutes and without general anesthesia or IV sedation. 

Several factors cause aging of the face. The loss of elastic 

tissue and collagen causes the skin to sag. Environmental 

damage and UV light often cause age spots and wrinkles. 

The most significant culprit to age the face is loss of volume. 

Atrophy (loss of that plump baby fat) develops in the nasolabial 

folds, lips and lower face. The hollow below the eyes grows 

deeper and the plumpness of ear lobes diminishes as we age. 

Some of the facial muscles lose their volume and even cheek 

bones undergo resorption. 

A “liquid face lift” is a non surgical procedure which involves 

the use of cosmetic fillers (Restylane, Juvederm, Sculptra, Voluma 

and others) and Botox to restore volume and soften wrinkles 

thus rejuvenating the face. 

The safest preferable fillers are of the hyaluronic acid family. 

The molecule is a sugar-based gel that naturally supports 

the cells in skin; it is the major component in the fluids that 

lubricate joints. These “injectables” are placed under the skin 

to instantly restore skin volume and smooth away facial wrinkles 

and folds, adding and restoring the natural contour of the 

cheeks and even re-plumping the lips and ear lobes. These injectables 

look and feel totally natural. Everyone will notice, but 

no one will know. 

Results from liquid face lift procedures are usually gradual 

and can range from subtle to astonishing. Patients may return 

to most normal activities almost immediately. 

A liquid face lift procedure is tailored to each individual, so 

pricing depends upon a number of factors, including the extent 

of loss of collagen, skin laxity, skin damage, color and thickness, 

individual health and goals. This enables your dermatologist to 

make your personal renaissance as unique and special as you 

are, and as comfortable and rewarding as possible.

health & beauty | Your Dental Health 

By dr. craig spodak, dmd, pa 

There’s Relief For 

Chronic Migraines! 

You can prevent migraines 

without pills, shots, 

surgery and side effects! 

If you suffer from frequent migraines, you unquestionably know it. 

You might have chronic tension-type headaches, earaches, grinding 

that’s loud enough to wake your sleeping partner, a repetitive 

clenching of the jaw, or a sore jaw joint (TMJ). However, medical examinations 

often show that you’re otherwise perfectly healthy. A recent 

medical study confirmed that people who suffer from migraine 

pain and chronic headaches clench their jaws in a balanced, centered 

position, and that the pain is not isolated to just one 

area. This causes extremely intense muscular contraction, 

but little strain on the jaw. Nighttime 

jaw clenching usually goes unnoticed, but 

it sets the stage for migraine pain and 

chronic headache pain. 

While it is perfectly normal to 

clench your jaws when you sleep, 

most migraine pain starts as a 

sleep disorder of intense jaw 

clenching. When you clench 

your jaw muscles, it is 14 times 

more intense than normal. This 

gives you a good chance of 

suffering from migraine pain, 

chronic headaches or even 

TMJ pain. 

Dentists usually hear 

about intense jaw clenching 

when patients complain 

about TMJ, which is a very 

common and painful jaw 

disorder caused by clenching 

tightly in an off-centered 

lopsided way while asleep. 

But, when the clench is in 

a balanced, centered position, 

causing facial pain, 

this is the sign you might 

need a NTI device. 

The NTI-tss (Nociceptive 

Trigeminal Inhibitory Tension Suppression System) device 

reduces clenching intensity by 66 percent. In basic terms, it is a 

tension suppression system, which means that it prevents the 

clenching action. No clenching means there is less wear and tear to 

your teeth, less jaw pain and fewer migraines. 

The device is a small and removable that you’ll only wear when 

you’re asleep. Unlike the traditional mouthpiece with a flat surface, 

the device is a custom-fitted device that prevents the tooth surfaces 

from ever coming into intense contact. By preventing 

high-intensity contact, you also eliminate high-intensity 

clenching, as well as the muscular irritation that leads 

to migraine pain, TMJ and chronic headaches. 

If you put a wooden pencil between your upper 

and lower front teeth and bite down, you’ll feel 

that only the muscles under your scalp contract 

only slightly. This is because the intense contradiction 

cannot occur. This is how the NTItss 

device works. Clinical trials have proven 

that 82 percent of migraine sufferers had a 

77 percent average reduction of migraine incidents. 

The device is the only FDAapproved 

dental appliance for 

preventing migraine headache 

pain, and it only takes one visit 

to the dentist to have the device 

customized for you. 

If you suffer from migraines, 

talk with your dentist 

about possible solutions. It 

could be as simple as a small, 

removable device to provide 

you necessary relief without 

having to resign to taking pills, 

shots or having surgery!

Non-Exercise 

Weight Loss Strategies 

We all know exercise and specific nutrition 

principles are essential for optimal fitness but 

here are 5 non-exercise related strategies to help 

boost your results and reach your goals faster! 

1. Get those ZZZZS 

According to a study from Howard Hughes Medical Institute at 

Stanford University, the less you snooze, the less leptin your body is 

likely to produce. How is that correlated to losing weight? Leptin helps 

promote weight loss in two ways- it discourages you from eating by 

sending the message, “Hey, stop eating you’re full!” to your stomach 

and it pushes your body to expend energy. In addition the hormone 

ghrelin, which stimulates your appetite is higher in people who don’t 

get enough sleep. Ever notice the day after a bad 

night’s sleep you’re reaching for the 

types of food you should probably 

stay away from? I know when I’m 

sleep deprived (which happens often 

with 3 kids under 6 years old) I 

totally crave carbohydrate dense comfort 

food the next day! Yikes! 

2. Catch some raYS 

Your body needs sunlight to produce 

an essential feel-good hormone 

called serotonin, which has been 

shown to lessen your cravings for sugar 

and carbohydrates. So when you start longing 

for sweets head outside instead! Have lunch 

outside or workout outdoors instead of inside! 

3. Out of sight, Out of mind 

Clear out those cabinets, ASAP! You’d be surprised at how 

many calories you could cut out of your daily intake just by 

throwing away all the junk in the house! Most “extra” snacking 

people do is mindless or emotional so why tease yourself 

with extra temptations. Have your “treats” when out of the 

house! Way easier said than done, especially with kids in the 

house! If kids are the culprits, buy snacks that won’t tempt 

you…it works! 

4. Keep “happy hour” at home 

Don’t let weekend binges get the best of you! Spending a few 

hours at a bar on Friday night (or any night for that matter) and you 

can easily consume between 2,000-3,000 calories in drinks (300 

calories per mixed drink) and snacks (an order of nachos has 2,100 

calories!!). Scary thought! If you’re serious about losing weight but 

still have that urge to wind down from the week, keep it at home. 

To make you own “healthy happy hour” swap calorie laden mixed 

drinks for sparkling water or wine and make your 

own “clean” versions of your favorite happy hour 

snacks. Doing this could save you a total of 

2,250 calories a week! Crazy, right!? 

5. Slow it down 

Ever wonder where the food on your 

plate went? Was it the dog!? Or did you 

just inhale your food?! This simple 

strategy can help you save more calories 

than you think. All you have 

to do is set your fork down after 

every bite. It takes 20 minutes 

for your stomach to send 

signals to the brain that 

it’s full. When you eat too 

quickly, your body doesn’t 

have time to recognize it’s 

satiated. The consequence 

is a belly full of way to much 

chow. Slow down the input of 

food, slow down the extra calories!

Siperstein Dermatology Group 

BY Robyn Siperstein, M.D. & Elizabeth Nestor, M.D. 

Cosmetic Dermatology’s 

Newest Innovations 

According to Dr. Robyn Siperstein, founder of a 

large local dermatology practice in Boca Raton 

and Boynton Beach, there are several exciting 

innovations in the field of cosmetic dermatology. 

One of those innovations is the AccuVein device, which uses 

an invisible infrared laser to detect blood vessels. This device 

allows doctors to personalize treatments to the patient’s 

anatomy by providing vein visibility. Not only does this increase 

patient safety, but it also decreases downtime by providing 

a roadmap of the blood vessels that cannot usually be seen. During 

Dr. Siperstein’s cosmetic injections, this device helps her to see and 

avoid larger veins, thereby minimizing the potential for bruising. 

While the use of this device and a cannula significantly decreases 

the likelihood of bruising, it cannot always be eliminated entirely. 

In light of this, Dr. Siperstein also offers complimentary IPL treatments 

1-2 days after the procedure, to decrease downtime if patients 

do experience bruising, which eliminates most of the bruising 

within 24-48 hours. 


Another new innovation is a treatment called “PRP” or 

platelet rich plasma. Blood contains many different parts, 

such as white blood cells (that fight infection), red blood 

cells (that carry oxygen) and platelets (that help with blood 

clotting). PRP contains a higher concentration of platelets, 

which have a variety of growth factors. These have many 

medical applications such as wound healing, along with the 

newest advancements in the dermatology field for both hair 

loss and skin rejuvenation. PRP is created by taking a patient’s 

own blood (utilizing the AccuVein device described 

above), and placing it in a centrifuge for 10 minutes in a special 

test tube which allows the enriched platelets to separate 

out. Since PRP is concentrated from a patient’s own blood, it 

is extremely safe, with very few side effects. 

PRP is used for thinning hair in men and women. Areas 

where hair is thin (not completely bald) are the best places 

to use it. After monthly PRP treatments, a majority of 

patients noticed increases in both the quality of hair and 

volume. Additionally, PRP is used in laser resurfacing and 

micro-needling procedures to decrease downtime and enhance 

results. The growth factors and collagen induction 

speed the healing process and create a youthful glow. 

If you have any further questions or would like to learn 

more about either of these procedures, Siperstein Dermatology 

Group offers complimentary cosmetic consultations.

Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida 

By nicol jenkins 

Helping Patients 

In Delray Beach 

Suffering from chronic migraines 24 hours a day, 

she has tried every remedy to help alleviate the pain. 

From opioids and Botox injections to Acupuncture, 

nothing has worked and she was left feeling helpless. 

But refusing to give up hope, she tried another remedy for 

chronic migraines and other ailments: medical cannabis. 

“For over 27 years, I’ve tried so many treatments to alleviate 

the pain from migraines, including opioids which can be addicting. 

I’ve read some research that medical marijuana can help with 

migraines. I decided to try it and it has helped with my pain and 

being able to sleep at night,” a patient of Medical Cannabis Clinics 

of Florida told Atlantic Ave Magazine. 

Many are now looking to this treatment to lessen the effects of 

various illnesses including: Migraines, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, 

HIV/ AIDS, Crohn’s Disease, Epilepsy, ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease), 

Chronic muscle spasms, PTSD, Cancer, Hepatitis, Glaucoma, 

and Chronic pain related to medical illness. 

The Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida is now open in Delray 

Beach and helping alleviate pain for these various ailments. 

In the November election, the state of Florida passed Amendment 

2, also known as the Florida Medical Marijuana Legalization 

Initiative, which legalizes medical marijuana for individuals suffering 

from these various medical conditions. Previously, the state 

only allowed medical marijuana use for terminally ill patients with 

less than a year to live. The new guidelines require a patient to see 

a doctor and get an evaluation prior to use. 

The Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida, located in Delray Beach, 

has Board Certified doctors, a neurologist, and psychologist on staff 

to assist patients. Research has found that medical marijuana is a 

safe treatment and has helped lessen pain, nausea and other side 

effects from medical conditions. 

There is a long history of cannabis or marijuana being used to 

help people with various illnesses. Starting all the way back in 

3000 BCE, Chinese Emperors played a key role in the medicinal use 

of marijuana for gout, malaria and rheumatism. By the late 18th 

century, American medical journals started to recommend hemp 

seeds and roots for a variety of diseases. An Irish doctor practicing 

in India learned the use of marijuana for rheumatism, cholera, 

rabies and tetanus and popularized it in UK and America, according 

to reports. At the end of the 19th century, it was deemed necessary 

to reduce the patients addicted to morphine and to 

switch them to a more benign agent. This led to the 

creation of FDA in 1906. Marijuana was defined as a 

drug in 1914 in the USA. In 1996, California became 

the first state to legalize medical marijuana. Florida 

voters also legalized medical marijuana for compassionate 

use in the November 2016 elections and became 

the 27th state to do so, according to reports on 

the history on medical marijuana. Results from some 

studies support the use of marijuana in chronic pain, 

spasticity, and nausea/ vomiting associated with chemotherapy, 

to gain weight in patients suffering from 

HIV/ AIDS, sleep disorders and Tourette’s syndrome. 

Other studies further state that marijuana is less addictive 

than caffeine. 

According to Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida 

website, their mission states: “Medicine is an art and 

a science. The art pertains to the unique doctor patient 

relation and trust that is paramount to medical 


care. We at the Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida bring this art 

and science to serve you. We know that patients who look for medical 

marijuana have been through a lot. They are suffering from debilitating 

medical conditions and quite possibly have been taken 

advantage of by unscrupulous people in their desire to ease the 

suffering. We started our mission that suffering can be eased with 

a smile, a selfless and genuine human encounter and medical marijuana 

when appropriate.” 

They also want patients to be aware of the common misconceptions 

surrounding medical marijuana. One being that it’s a gateway 

drug, and another that it is not safe, stated the doctors. There have 

been many proven medical benefits, according to the doctors at 

Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida. 

The staff at Medical Cannabis Clinics of Florida can help you get 

back to living your life!

Over 26 Years 

Of Excellence 

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 place to go 

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, retrostyle 

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 out-of-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. 

“The Diamonds East family wants to thank ALL of our clients that 

have allowed us to be a part of their joyous and memorable moments. 

From their special creative engagement proposal and birthday surprises, 

to the loving “just because” gift. We have developed unique bonds 

and friendships with our clients that we will always cherish. We encourage 

our clients on continuing to surprise us with their most unique engagements 

and special gift giving moments. It is truly a pleasure serving 

such great people that we now call friends.”

Sundy House

The Perfect Destination 

For Any Special Occasion 

The moment guests walk 

through the doors, the serene 

botanical garden, Savannahstyle 

gazebos and aroma of 

exquisite dishes sets a magical 

ambience and makes for a 

perfect destination for weddings 

and any special occasion. 

Located in the heart of Delray Beach, Sundy House is a 

hidden gem for impressing your friends and family for a 

unique experience. 

With its romantic atmosphere, one-of-a-kind outdoor spaces, 

and eclectic party rooms, it comes as no surprise that Sundy House 

has been praised as a premier wedding destination. However, many 

may not know that the Sundy House offers the perfect location for 

events of all kinds. From corporate events, birthday parties, bridal 

showers, rehearsal dinners, business meetings, holiday parties and 

much more, the restaurant offers unparalleled surroundings, careful 

attention to details and an award-winning culinary team. 

“We do everything from baby and bridal showers and birthday 

parties to the most elaborate corporate event you want to put on. 

Our space and design of the location is made for any kind of event,” 

said Tom Rasmussen, Director of Catering at Sundy House. 

Tom and the event staff at Sundy House will customize your party 

to your liking. They can accommodate a smaller intimate party 

for 35 guests in one room, or even rent out the entire venue for a 

lavish event with up to 140 people. They offer a variety of indoor 

rooms- the Mediterranean room, Fresco room and Star Bar- to outdoor 

spaces by the nature pond or the outside lawn. Not just for 

small gatherings, Sundy House can host large dinners, a milestone 

birthday party, a unique corporate dinner, cocktails parties and 

events of all themes. 

“Many people do not know that Sundy House offers a venue for 

large scale events. Your party can rent the entire restaurant or a few 

rooms for grand parties and we can accommodate many guests,” 

said Rasmussen. “With the configuration of the property, we can 

handle large events. We can use multiple rooms so you are not just 

in one big square room!” 

Unlike a hotel venue which may only offer a simple ballroom 

space, Sundy House has stunning rooms and picturesque outdoor 

garden setting for any occasion. 

“We work with many companies that have destinations events 


here and they love the Sundy House because of the old Florida, 

historic atmosphere and the tropical gardens. The ambience 

offers a more relaxed setting for working lunches, dinners 

and cocktail events,” added Rasmussen. 

What really makes catering events at the Sundy House 

unique is the exquisite food. The cuisine for our events are 

prepared in an ala carte format, nothing in large format. Our 

menus are crafted specifically to your event desires. 

“The one thing I hear over and over again is the reason our 

guests books an event or wedding here is because the food is 

excellent- and it’s true,” exclaimed Rasmussen. 

The other appeal is the look of the venue and flexibility 

of the space allows for all types of entertainment. “It’s such 

a unique property. Your guests are not just looking at four 

white walls in a hotel. The Sundy House has the perfect space 

for entertainment of all kinds.” 

Whether you have a party with 30 guests or 140, everyone 

will be treated to a first class experience. 

“Our service is impeccable and I think that’s what people 

are looking for. We train all our servers; our staff has been 

here for years and they know the property very well,” he said. 

“It is good to know that there is such great venue practically 

in our backyard in which we will highly recommend to 

anyone looking to get married,” said one happy customer. 

“It happens all the time. People get engaged and married 

here and quite often, they come back for their anniversaries, 

work parties or birthday parties or other special events. All 

of the brides and grooms have lasting memories here and become 

part of the Sundy House family,” he added.

Mark Gerretson Memorial Fishing Tournament 

By noel bourque | Photos by Kaycee Chapman 

A Beautiful Day for Fishing 

Once again the 23rd annual Mark Gerretson 

Memorial Fishing Tournament presented by Merrill 

Lynch was held this month and what a beautiful 

day to fish offshore here in Delray Beach, Florida! 

The tournament was started by Mark Gerretson as the Delray 

Beach Jaycees Fishing Tournament to raise money for the 

Delray Beach Kids and Cops program, among other worthy 

causes. Mark ran the tournament for 11 years before he passed in 

2005. At that time, his friends and family made a promise to keep 

the tournament going, and to continue to raise money for a variety 

of charities that support the Delray Beach Community. The committee 

works throughout the year to plan the tournament, identify worthy 

causes, and disburse the money to those in need. Over the years 

the tournament has raised over $150,000 for local charities and 

provided help and hope to many children and families during tough 

times. A list of the charities supported by the tournament in can be 

found on our website. The committee members are: Gary (Falcon) 

Musial (President), Noel Bourque, (Treasurer), Patricia Gerretson, 

(Mark’s mom), Tim Knapp, Jen Buce, Paul Shersty, Deena Chapman, 

Chris Reich, Jim Gerretson, and Brittany Gerretson Roberts. 

The Captain’s Meeting and party was held at the Hurricane Bar 

& Lounge again this year, were 29 boats entered the tournament. 

Captains, Anglers, and guests gathered to register their boats, win 

raffle prizes, buy official tournament tee-shirts, get updated tournament 

rules, and of course tell fish stories. Tasty eats were donated 

by Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza, Sandwiches By The Sea, and 

the Hurricane’s very own Mary Schroeder. All that good food was 

washed down with signature brew from our local brew masters at 

Salt Water Brewery. 

The Tournament was held on Saturday the 12th with this year’s 

weigh-in location at the Boynton Beach Marina. Both the Captain’s 

Meeting and tournament were blessed with excellent weather. 

Raffles were held during both MGMFT events, including regular 

and high-dollar prizes. Wonderful items included a bike from Richwagen’s 

Bike & Sport, a personal emergency GPS beacon, a set of 

custom painted Adirondack chairs from local artist Tina Black, a 

“3 day, 2 night stay” at Wright By the Sea, and fishing gear donated 

from Ray’s offshore tackle shop and Tuppen’s Marine & Tackle 

were among the prizes. A complete list of the prizes and sponsors 

can be found on our tournament website. 

Of the 29 boats registered this year, over 15 boats brought in fish. 

Fish were caught in each of the tournament categories and some 

great fish stories were swapped. For the first time in our history 2 

kingfish tied in weight. 

The overall champions took home over $5000 in prize money. 

We invite you to check out our website and Facebook page and to 

patronize the sponsors on the site, because we couldn’t make this 

tournament a success without their help.

Doreen Yaffa Advises On How 

To Be A Good Divorce Client 

When going through a divorce, the process can be stressful 

at times. But with the helpful advice from experienced 

family attorney Doreen Yaffa of Yaffa & Associates that 

transitional time doesn’t have to be difficult. 

their lawyer to focus in on all issues, listens well and keeps his/her 

emotions in check. It is very easy to see your lawyer more as your 

therapist then your legal advocate. Also, Doreen advises to please 

listen to your lawyer’s advice and not from your friends or family. 

They come from emotion and your attorney comes from knowledge 

and experience. Focus on letting your attorney do his or her 

job on your behalf. Attorneys are well-trained in telling you what 

the law provides, in explaining your rights and obligations, and setting 

forth the likely results of your case. “ 

Doreen Yaffa, Florida Board Certified Marital and Family Law Attorney 

For the process to move more smoothly not only the attorney 

but the client has to do their part- and learn how to be a good 

divorce client. 

Longtime divorce attorney Doreen Yaffa shares tips on how to be 

a good divorce client. 

Listen to Your Attorney’s Advice 

“Listen to what your attorney says. In truth, it may not always be 

what you want to hear, but it surely will be what you need to hear,” 

says Yaffa. 

You hired your divorce attorney for a reason— expertise. As 

an experienced Board Certified Marital and Family Law Attorney, 

Doreen Yaffa has in-depth knowledge of the plethora of rules that 

govern divorce. Doreen Yaffa has the ability to guide you down the 

path to conclude your case as smoothly and efficiently as possible. 

“Paying attention to your attorney is crucial to a successful attorney-client 

relationship,” explained Yaffa. “A good client works with 

Carefully Review Correspondence 

“If your attorney has sent you correspondence, be sure to read 

over the documents carefully and slowly. Take notes as you read it 

over,” recommends Yaffa. 

If you have questions about your case, sometimes you may discover 

the answer to your questions in previous correspondence 

from your attorney. You will be receiving a large quantity of information 

over the coming months, and it is easy to forget which topics 

you and your attorney have previously covered. Of course, if the 

answers you are seeking are not found in your previous correspondence, 

or you need immediate assistance with an emergency issue, 

contact your attorney with your questions. 

Stay Actively Involved 

“If your attorney doesn’t want your input in the decision-making 

process, find a new one!” warns Yaffa. 

Good marital and family lawyers realize that their job is to provide 

their clients with the best available options in any given situation 

and explain the possible consequences of each. By no means 

should you listen blindly. It is your case and your life! You should 

always be comfortable to ask questions, test theories, and even 

push your attorney to consider different options. Do not be shy 

about making sure you understand advice, recommendations, and 

any documents you sign. But, at a certain point, when your questions 

are answered and you understand your options, you should 

strongly consider your attorney’s advice as in how to best proceed. 

Do not ignore it or take it lightly. 


Respond In a Timely Manner 

During the course of your divorce, your attorney is going to need 

information from you, including financial documentation, such as 

bank statements and tax returns, home appraisals, and facts needed 

to value retirement accounts. 

“You should provide your attorney with this information as soon 

as possible. For one thing, delivering the requested material sooner 

rather than later usually helps move your case along more quickly. 

Another reason is that state court rules set specific time frames 

for divorcing spouses to produce relevant information. If you miss 

court deadlines, a judge can sanction you by issuing fines or finding 

that you have waived certain rights,” added Yaffa. 

Communicate With Your Attorney, 

but Don’t Overdo It 

Good communication between a client and family law attorney 

is essential to a successful outcome in your case. If your attorney 

reaches out to you, respond as soon as possible—odds 

are it’s important. 

“It’s fine to contact your lawyer’s office to get an update on your 

case, but don’t make this a daily occurrence,” says Yaffa. 

Naturally you’re anxious for things to move forward, but stretches 

of inactivity in a case are normal and often the result of divorce 

process mechanics. Incessant update inquiries can sour your relationship 

with your attorney and will probably cost you needless 

expense if you’re billed for phone calls and emails. 

“The bottom line is that your reasonable participation in all aspects 

of your divorce will help make you a good client and hopefully 

reduce the anxiety that’s inherent in ending a marriage,” says Yaffa. 

The most important piece of advice is: Be upfront and transparent 

with your lawyer. 

“Clients need to share all details of their marriage prior to moving 

forward. Your lawyer does not want to hear something for the 

first time from the other side or even worse in the courtroom.” 

Doreen Yaffa has been a fierce advocate for her clients for many 

years as a Board Certified attorney in marital and family law. 

Her clients have praised Yaffa for her dedication to helping them 

transition to a new chapter in their life. 

“Doreen Yaffa and all of her associates were AMAZING to work 

with. I could not be more satisfied with Yaffa and Associates, they 

provided an invaluable service to me and my children,” stated Joan. 

“A top-notch matrimonial attorney, Doreen Yaffa handled my 

case with the utmost care, concern, and professionalism. Doreen 

and her entire staff made one of the worst possible times in my life 

easier to bear,” stated Michael. 

“I provide a holistic approach to my practice assisting each and 

every one of my clients beyond the legal aspect. I am currently 

studying to be a Life Coach as many of my clients have sought my 

assistance with issues of life after divorce. I feel honored to help 

my clients to reach their best potential and find happiness and balance,” 

concluded Yaffa.

Tech Support Is Only 

A Phone Call Away 

Have you ever tried to 

reason with your computer? 

Does it stop working 

without your permission? 

If you answered yes to any of these questions then you should 

know about SmÿlTech. This local company is the answer for all 

your technology needs for your home or business. 

“I help people with technology and provide IT support. You get 

one-on-one personal support and you can always reach me,” said 

owner Yannick Perotti. 

Perotti makes house calls (like doctors did in the 60s) and has 

the ultimate knowledge to answer all your technology needs. He 

can fix your home computer or set up your office software or computer 

networking systems. 

Just ask Bonnie Sansone, who sees Perotti as a technological asset 

to her Air Conditioning Company. “Yannick helps us with all our 

computer needs and sets up different devices. Our dispatch technicians 

communicate with their phones or iPads so it’s important 

they work properly. We love Yannick’s personal attention and his 

ability to help us anytime we call.” 

Perotti is somewhat of a local celebrity when it comes to saving 

the day for business and personal computer owners. All you have 

to do is call him and he will walk you through the maze of computer 

wizardry in real time. He makes house calls and prides himself on 

being available 24/7.

Helping former president of Delray Beach Chamber of 

Commerce Karen and her husband at his real estate office 

Perotti is also very accommodating with his time and travel. If 

you need one-on-one training (for office or home) he will oblige, 

and if you want to get your computers or devices working faster 

and more efficiently, he’s only a phone call away. 

“I help make business environments more efficient. I can set up a 

system where your emails are automatically put into folders so you 

can keep everything organized. That way you will have everything 

put in the right place as soon as it hits your inbox,” said Perotti, who 

calls this system email organization. 

Not only does Perotti know how to talk to your computer and get 

it to heed your commands, he also can also effectively communicate 

with those who need his services. The Monaco-born tech wiz 

speaks four languages – French, Dutch, English and Spanish and 

has traveled to 52 countries. On the wall of his home/office is a map 

with white pins that designate his earthly travels. 

Since Perotti is a man of many talents he can also help you set 

up your smart devices, tune up your computers so they work faster 

and connect your home network with your smart phone, TV and 

tablets. When in his domain you can just say the words “Alexa turn 

on my lights and music” and it magically happens. These chores of 

simplicity can be summoned up by your smart devices and deliver 

you on-demand weather reports, music, lights, TV, games and more. 

To those who know him, Perotti is invaluable. His rates are reasonable 

($69 an hour) and for non-profits the rate is $49 per hour. 

He also gives discounts to Delray Beach Chamber members. 

If you have a computer that needs recycling or refurbishing Perotti 

can do that for you as well. He will fix and then donate your old 


computer to a non-profit organization or he can erase the data from 

your old computer before you dispose of it. He also sells state-ofthe-art 

gadgets such as external phone chargers, surge protectors, 

back-up drives and other devices. 

For Karen Granger, former President of the Delray Beach Chamber of 

Commerce, Perotti has been the answer to many a technology prayer. 

“Yannick is a consistent and faithful volunteer. I call him when we 

need tech help in our home-office. He’s prompt, provides great solutions 

and relieves a lot of stress for us. My husband Eric is a Real 

Estate Agent and has called Yannick frequently to maximize the tech 

recourses he uses in his business. We love that we can call him with 

home office (or business needs) and he responds very quickly.” 

Perotti attended University of Florida and received a Bachelor’s 

Degree in Computer Science. He also has a Master’s Degree in International 

business. He was a project manager and business developed 

software for a private jet company as well. 

That’s why he can help businesses streamline their technology footprint 

and make their path to success more efficient. Perotti can also 

help you with cell phone security, photo back-up and teach individuals 

(or groups) how to come into harmony with their wired world. 

Leslie Excell, President of Excell In Design Group, has seen the 

results of Perotti’s labor up close. “Yannick has helped my business 

transition into technology efficiency. He’s also been a huge inspiration 

for me to network with my staff and connect our computers. We 

only use Yannick – He is at my service at a moment’s notice when we 

call with an issue. His fees are fair and he is so knowledgeable.” 

Helping Bob Etingoff at Sansone Air Conditioning, Yannick’s largest customer 

Whether you’re 18 or 80 Yannick is ready to teach you how to 

use your computer, set up your smart TV or create a technological 

superhighway for all your computer and tech needs.

Delray Beach Marketing Cooperative

Another SunSational Win 

for Delray and the DBMC 

The Florida Festivals & Events 

Association (FFEA), which recognizes the 

state’s best events, recently announced 

the winners of its annual SUNsational 

Awards during its convention and 

tradeshow last month, and the four 

members of the Delray Beach Marketing 

Cooperative picked up four. 

Nominations were judged by a blue ribbon panel representing 

media outlets, printing companies, website designers, photographers, 

promotional marketing professionals and social media experts. 

“To compete against such talented organizations from all 

over the state makes winning a real honor,” said Stephanie Immelman, 

Executive Director of the Delray Marketing Cooperative. 

The DBMC team is responsible for some of the most popular 

events in Palm Beach County, including the Lighting of the 100ft 

Christmas Tree and the Delray Beach July 4th Celebration. Delray 

Beach is a vibrant city and the creativity of these event producers 

help to keep it a place associated with fun and family. 

Despite having brought home awards for Delray Beach at the 

county, state, national and international levels for events, special 

events are only a part of what they do. “Our main focus is Destination 

Marketing where our team has been recognized by Discover 

the Palm Beaches at the county level and by the Destination Marketing 

Association International (DMAI) at the national level,” explains 

Immelman. The DBMC aims to bring international awareness to 

the city while increasing economic development, hotel occupancy 

rates, and worldwide media impressions. 

All this couldn’t be accomplished without the help of their amazing 

partners: the CRA, the City and the Chamber of Commerce, as 

well as other local organizations like Old School Square, West Atlantic 

Redevelopment Coalition, Woo Creative and Pineapple Grove Arts 

District. All work together as a team to make things happen. A testament 

to the kind of businesses Delray fosters is the sponsors that 

step up to make these events possible, and ensure the visiting media 

have great places to report on. Without sponsors like Delray Marriott 

and Delray Buick GMC the holidays would look a lot different. 

The group of Stephanie Immelman, Stephen Chrisanthus, Tiffany 

Mazer and Jarred White make up the Delray Marketing Cooperative. 

These four manage to pull off some big things for such a small 

team. Forging great relationships throughout the community and 

utilizing the unique asset that is Delray Beach seems to make it all 

work. Sharing a love of travel and people, all four have lived abroad 

and excelled in their respective fields. They come together with 

four different personalities to help give the City of Delray Beach one 

clear identity, and have fun along the way. 

A new season of award winning events is around the corner as 

the summer winds down and the holiday season approaches. Coming 

up next is Grove Week October 2-8th OnTheAveDelrayBeach.

Jacqueline Botting 

We need to 

move from 

fear to 

wisdom 


egulars | city people 

by diane feen | photo by melissa korman 

Idealist In Chief 

Jacqueline Botting likes to think 

of herself as a “thought leader.” 

Her thoughts are deep and provocative while being altruistic 

and humanistic at the same time. 

But Botting wouldn’t have it any other way. 

That’s because her eye is firmly planted on the present with a meteorite 

focus on how we can make positive change through our connections 

with each other. 

“If we get more engaged and focused on our values we can come 

up with a shared vision for ourselves and future generations. We can 

then move toward the promised land,” said Botting, who glides gently 

on the earth plane. 

To accomplish her goals – that seem to be more in line with Gandhi 

than the Kardashians – Botting has created WiseTribe. This non-profit 

educational group gets its gravitational pull by way of collaborative 

learning experiences, relationship building and introspection. The 

goal is to create a world where community is built with integrity and 

a sense of purpose to bring out the best in humanity. 

Though it sounds a lot loftier than most goals being tossed around 

in popular culture, Botting is not deterred. She is so confident in WiseTribe’s 

message and manifestation that she has plans in place for its 

next phase - Wise Land. 

“This community learning project focuses on emerging economic, 

societal and cultural trends that increasingly influence the way 

we live. It’s an opportunity for the community to explore the pillars 

of a well-balanced society that includes democracy, equality, education, 

housing, food and transportation,” said the New Smyrna Beach 

born futurist. 

Wise Land, according to Botting, will prompt us to collectively think 

ahead, across diverse generations and boldly reimagine a better future. 

Currently WiseTribe hosts community conversations, workshops 

(and Meatless Monday Potlucks) that encourage multi-generational 

communication and collaborative problem-solving. It’s about building 

strong cohesive communities that embrace the future yet relish 

the lessons of the past. 

One of the most refreshing elements of WiseTribe is that it builds 

knowledge and credibility by harnessing the wisdom of elders (not 

shunning them). It’s one of the few groups that values diversity and 

sees no barrier between numerical classification. Age is merely a 

number, but life experience is capital gold. 

Listening to Botting talk about her mission is both revelatory and 

inspirational. She thinks about what society will look like in 50 years 

and advocates for inclusion rather than separation. It’s as utopian as 

one might envision in an animated feature. 

But the feature – and future – that Botting envisions is real. She 

lives, eats and breathes her message and the methods of getting there. 

The motivation for her urgency of clarification and cohesion was 

born out of life circumstances. 

“I had just gotten divorced and was working for the Trade and 

Technology Board of the Irish Government in NYC. I loved my job 

until I witnessed the global financial system meltdown. I realized 

that Institutions that were supposed to take care of us were not operating 

with integrity.” 

Add that to the fact that her father had a terminal lung condition 

with six months to live. “My father’s passing was a huge awakening 

for me. It got me thinking about everything. I sought out conversation 

with people 30 to 40 years my senior to explore what a welllived 

life looks like, and how to achieve it in a new world that felt 

increasingly less personal.” 

Botting found these conversations not only stimulating and informative, 

but nourishing. “We all agreed our inter-generational conversations 

were mutually beneficial on many levels. We realized we 

should collaborate on projects of common interest to make a difference. 

From this WiseTribe was born.” 

Botting sees WiseTribe as a calling. One that brings altruism and 

connectivity for the betterment of society. As a means to this goal she 

is working on getting funding, facilitators and hosting more events (all 

over the US, but currently in Delray Beach). 

Dr. Christopher Noe, friend and strategic advisor, calls WiseTribe 

‘Civic Engagement 3.0.’ “WiseTribe invites the community to engage 

and seek solutions. It’s a feast of intellectualism and discourse. Jacqueline 

is smart, articulate and ahead of her time. She brings a lot of 

value to this city and the community.” 

She sure does. How often do you converse with someone who is 

looking to make the world a better place? Someone who is convinced 

that we need to go from institution centric to human centric? 

The answer is rarely. That is why Botting is such a valuable commodity 

in our commodity-driven society. “We need to move from fear 

to wisdom. Now is the time to ask questions about everything. We 

need to hit the pause button from an agenda driven life to one of reflection, 

conversation and connections.” 

If you ask strategic planner Ann Paton about Botting, she’ll tell 

you. “In her role as a visionary she brings people together with a 

diverse perspective. Jacqueline is fearless in terms of her commitment 

to changing the world. She has a fire in her belly and believes 

we can join hands and make change. Her idealism makes me feel like 

I’m back in the 60’s.” 

In a world so jaded (and cynical) it is indeed refreshing to hear a 

beautiful woman with grace speak so vocally about bringing everyone 

together to affect positive change. It’s even more exciting that she is 

doing it in Delray. Botting created conversation circles and wisdom exchanges 

in New York, but her life trajectory (her mom’s failing health) 

took her to South Florida instead. 

We are glad that an old soul like Botting is nearby to enlighten and 

remind us that together we can change the world. The beautiful thing 

is that she is doing it one day at a time. 

As Paton tells it, “if Chicken Little told Botting ‘the sky is falling,’ her 

answer would be, ‘The sky may be falling but we can hold it up.’” 

How cool is that?

Veal Porterhouse 

Rocky’s Italian Bistro & Bar 

Food – Fun – Fanfare 

For 17 years, Rocky’s has always been an off 

the Avenue favorite - tucked a few feet south 

from the hustle and bustle of Atlantic Avenue. 

Some people come for the relaxing intimate atmosphere and 

homemade Italian food, others come to rejoice in life’s more 

salient moments by the bar. Either way you can’t go wrong by 

visiting the home that Rocky built. 

For starters, their homemade Garlic Bread is superb. Served piping 

hot it is the solid ground from which your meal will trend upward. 

They also have a comprehensive wine list, but you can’t go 

wrong with our new favorite - Montepulciano from Nicodemi. They 

also serve (and savor) Brunello, considered the 

noblest of wines from the Tuscan countryside, 

and Super Tuscan wines. 

Every meal deserves a great beginning, and 

we recommend the Goat Cheese and Artichoke 

salad over romaine with fresh tomatoes in a 

warm vinaigrette. A novel idea, and one that 

combines the tart with the tasty. Other popular 

appetizers include the Calamari fradiavolo, fried 

and tossed in a homemade fradiavolo sauce. 

There are many popular entrees that stay true 

to their Italian heritage, but one of the newest 

dishes is their Veal Porterhouse. It has striking 


I had the best 

salmon dish I’ve 

ever eaten. 

- Elaine Charapp 

resemblance to its meaty cousin, yet this one has a unique composition. 

The veal is tender and has all the characteristics of a NY Strip 

and a Tenderloin. Cooked in a cast iron skillet - to seal in the juices 

and flavor - it is served with roasted potatoes and broccoli in an 

herbal mushroom demi-glace sauce. 

Chef – Manager Damion is thrilled with the response to this new 

dish that will be on the menu soon – but can be ordered by request. 

“We’ve only had the Veal Tenderloin for a month and it’s been a best 

seller. It’s tender and juicy and it’s like a T-Bone 

steak but it’s made of Veal.” 

Damion is really the man with the golden 

fingers and palate. He can make special dishes 

for your food allergies and can accommodate 

Vegan diets and Gluten-Free. “We’re getting 

ready for the new iPic Theater to open next 

door. We will be making minor renovations 

to the kitchen and dining area, and we’re adding 

new dishes to the menu. It will have the 

same comfortable cozy atmosphere that we’re 

known for. And we will continue to cater to our 

guests’ food preferences.”

Rocky is also proud of The Crab Crusted Yellowtail Snapper over 

homemade Lobster Ravioli in a lemon butter sauce. The lump crabmeat 

is uniquely prepared each day with Rocky’s secret seasoning 

and lots of fresh crab. 

There are other dishes that have customers raving. Just recently 

Elaine Charapp dined at Rocky’s for the first time. Not one to brave 

the crowds during season, Elaine and her husband Sheldon, decided 

to discover the wonders of Rocky’s this summer. “I had the 

best salmon dish I’ve ever eaten,” said the Valencia Shores resident. 

“I ordered the Salmon with Gorgonzola blueberry reduction sauce 

and it was wonderful.” 

Charapp ought to know. Her husband managed a restaurant in 

Pittsburg for many years and her two sons are chefs – one is a culinary 

school graduate. You could hear the accolades rolling out of 

Charapp’s mouth as smoothly as the tide at sunset. “This is new for 

us but we were really impressed with the food at Rocky’s.” 

Another House Favorite is their Pear Shrimp dipped in salt and 

pepper, sautéed in a sweet Vermouth Cream Sauce. This dish is 

lightly tossed with pasta purses stuffed with gorgonzola and mascarpone 

cheese and a poached pear. 

It’s dishes such as these that have people going to Rocky’s when 

they want a special meal in an intimate setting. “This is my boyfriend’s 

favorite restaurant and we go there often. The food is always 

wonderful and everyone is so nice.” 

Rocky explains why they have such a loyal clientele. “We like to 

keep it simple but add special ingredients that are Italian with a 

continental Italian flair. We also have wonderful Center Cut Filets, 

Prime Cut Rib-eyes, Pork Chops and Veal Chops.” 

If you are a vegan – or prefer a lighter fare – there are pasta dishes 

that aim to please your palate. Rocky suggests the Rigatoni Calabrese 

with broccoli rapini, sweet Italian sausage, sautéed in garlic 

and olive oil. 

Also perfect for Vegans is their Linguini Del Giardino with a red 

Pomodoro sauce and fresh vegetables. 

A meal at Rocky’s is not complete without having one of their 

homemade desserts. A nod to Rocky’s mom – who whips up all the 

desserts with her inimitable style. The Tiramisu is classic in genre 

but rare in delight. We swooned over our homemade Tiramisu and 

savored its delicate sweetness and texture. The creamy homemade 

chocolate chip Cannoli is also intoxicating. 

On weekends Rocky’s becomes a musical feast for the eyes and 

ears. You can dine while listening to Tony Mariano sing classic 

tunes from Sinatra and his pals from 7pm to 9:30 pm Friday and 

Saturday. On Saturday nights the Karaoke begins at 10 pm and the 

fun continues. 

Rocky’s is also the perfect venue for Special Events such as Birthday 

parties, Anniversaries, Engagement parties, Rehearsal Dinners, 

Corporate and Holiday parties. Special requests and culinary preferences 

are yours for the asking. 

Happy Hour takes place from 5pm to 6:30 every Friday and Saturday. 

Get two for one drinks (of your choice). 

Come to where Scampi is revered and Milanese and Sorentino is 

honored. There’s a lively crowd at the bar with Chris at the helm of 

this colorful assortment of libation and conversation.

misc | ask the petxpert 

BY Bill Piechocki and Dr. Diane Sudduth, DVM 

Is The Label On Your 

Pet Food Accurate? 

Ok…you are in the store where you buy the food for your 

pets, your beloved, family members. You ask the salesperson 

“what is the best?” They give you the “pitch” on different 

brands of dry food. Why didn’t they take you to the optimal 

species appropriate diet which should be all natural or raw first? 

It’s sales training. Large dry food corporations spend plenty of 

marketing dollars indoctrinating sales personnel to push their 

lower quality, economically priced foods to YOU the consumer 

that is looking for answers. 

Labeling laws have become a sham to protect the big food companies. 

Products containing high fructose corn syrup are labeled 

“natural” because corn is grown as a natural food. However, the 

corn we eat or what is used to make high fructose corn syrup, corn 

syrup or dozens of other sweeteners is NOT natural corn or maize. 

They are mostly genetically modified that have been heavily dosed 

with highly toxic herbicides. 

Let’s look at the meat claims that are made by these big food 

companies. You will sometimes see meat as a first ingredient and 

we are told that is good. However, the label is listed by weight and 

since meat is seventy percent water, it can mean there is less than 

eight percent real meat. Do the math… if meat is seventy percent 

water and its only eight percent of the formula. What percentage of 

meat nutrients are really there? However, you may say that there is 

meat meal as well. Meat, chicken, fish meal etc, is not edible meat 

or fish but discarded tainted and sometimes even rotting, diseased 

animal parts that are NOT fit for human consumption. 

So, let’s look at the rest of the ingredients. Your dogs and cats 

are carnivores and are designed to only digest animal based foods. 

Grains, starches, beans, and other plant based foods cannot be easily 

converted to energy by these pets as they do not have the capacity 

to break them down. 

Now look even further into fillers and chemicals. Some are listed 

as sources for vitamins, minerals and other nutrients but are they 

bio-available? Since most are not naturally occurring and are not 

food based, their function is greatly diminished. If they are manmade 

or synthetic, the body can’t use them. That is why most medications 

do not cure disease. Other ingredients act as preservatives, 

colors, anti-stick agents, insecticides and other known carcinogens. 

Let’s look at the picture on the bag or package. You see images of 

steak, roast chicken, fresh fish, fruits and vegetables. Is that what 

you see IN that bag of food? The law says the label MUST represent 

what is in the package. If you buy processed macaroni & cheese, 

once cooked, it actually looks like macaroni & cheese. When you 

use dry kibble or even canned pet food, does it look anything like 

the picture on the bags or can? 

Your pet like yourself, thrives on real food. Everything in a bag, 

can or most pouches are processed. Ask yourself, would you eat the 

fake food products, chemical supplements, and fake drugs yourself 

if you knew they do not work or could cause you harm? 

As always, we wish you and your pets good health
