A New “Normal”
Last month we were happy to see our restaurants and
shops begin to open and welcome us back to the Ave.
And although Summer is in full swing, being able to dine
outdoors has been a treat.
On page 48 you will find the Delray Beach Chamber of
Commerce article #KeepLocalsAfloat. There are lots of
great ways to stay in town and support local businesses,
other than restaurants and shops.
Our City Person John Brewer began a group called Eat Local Delray,
that turned into the Socially Distant Supper Club, that went VIRAL! There
are chapters all over Florida, and beyond! Read about how one idea with
a friend turned into a movement that saved many of our local restaurants!
Remember to keep a face mask handy! On June 23 Palm Beach Commissioners
voted unanimously to mandate masks throughout the county.
This means masks must be worn inside businesses or any building where
the public has a right to access.
Let’s keep in mind that hurricane season is here, and we need to gather
supplies – preparation is key! Never before have bathroom and cleaning
supplies been so very important to keep in stock at home, as well as water,
candles, flashlights, and batteries.
And as always, a very heartfelt *Thank You* to our loyal advertisers,
readers; and essential workers for keeping us safe, healthy, and fed!
Have a wonderful July 4th!
Raise your
words,
not (your)
voice. It is
rain that
grows
flowers,
not
thunder.

Mother of Six
Saved from
Homelessness
During Pandemic
Shantavia yOung and her children
As the COVID-19 crisis led to unprecedented
unemployment, many of the
already vulnerable families served by
Achievement Center for Children & Families
(ACCF) in Delray Beach have experienced
critical needs during these difficult times.
These families have been facing the unknown
of how to sustain their basic needs
and manage loss of employment along with
supporting their children’s virtual learning
while schools remain closed.
ACCF’s Family Strengthening Team,
led by Berthanie Pierre, pivoted with the
immediate crisis to provide aid including
emergency funding for basic needs,
meals through ACCF’s food distribution
program, help with managing schoolwork,
and assisting families in navigating
unemployment claims and securing food
stamps. During this process, the Family
Strengthening team discovered that three
of their member families were experiencing
homelessness.
ACCF utilized community resources and
within two weeks the program’s Achievement
and Financial Navigators were able
to help secure and fund a deposit for affordable
housing for two of the families.
The funding was available through private
donations raised through ACCF’s COVID-19
Emergency Relief Funds. A third family has
received temporary shelter while the ACCF
team members work with partners in the
community to secure affordable housing.
Shantavia Young, a Delray Beach mother
with six young children including an infant
and two toddlers, was living “place to
place” without a stable home for her family.
She visited the ACCF to ask for assistance,
and they found and secured an affordable
rental home for her family, as well as provided
her with diapers and food each Friday,
as part of the organization’s weekly
food distribution.
“I am very thankful for the help that they
have given our family and for the help that
they will continue to provide,” said Ms.
Young. “Since we are in our new home, our
family is doing well.”

Provide military veterans who are physically

dogs who have the right qualities—intelligence,
focus, drive—to be service animals.
Yes, shelter dogs! Most service dogs are
raised as puppies. However, Lorraine believes
that there’s a certain fearless, stoic quality
that makes select shelter dogs the perfect
match for injured combatants. You might say
that they’ve both seen conflict and survived.

locals only | delray under $50
By Darien Davies
Delray Under $50
Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels
Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple
Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more
to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings
spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can
seem expensive at times, there’s a great
opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer
without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can
do in Delray Beach in July for $50 or less.
Much like the beach, sunglasses and an easy-ridin’ bicycle,
ice cream is king during the summer. It’s an easy and delicious
way to not only cool down after a long day outside,
but also a sweet treat while you’re strolling the Avenue during
daytime shopping or post-dinner
walking. July is National Ice
Cream Month and is a great
reminder that ice cream
heals all. If you’re looking
for the best ice
cream in town, look
no further than
Proper Ice Cream.
Owner and ice
cream extraordinaire,
Rickey Felberbaum,
has traveled
the world and
worked with some of
the finest chefs to not
only learn the science behind
ice cream, but also to
perfect and elevate the flavor
combinations. So, as
you can imagine, it’s not
your average ice cream,
but as Felberbaum says,
“it’s simply proper, the
way it should be.” While
their flavors rotate regularly,
you might expect to
find black sesame, butterscotch
brownie, pistachio
with caramelized figs,
glazed donut, honeycomb,
and more. You can indulge
in sorbets, too, or non-dairy, plant-based ice cream flavors like pistachio
and golden milk. Proper Ice Cream’s current reduced hours
are Monday to Thursday from 4pm to 10pm, Friday and Saturday
from Noon to 11pm and Sunday from Noon to 10pm to get your
creamy fix. Proper Ice Cream is located at 75 S.E. Fourth Ave. Visit
www.propericecream.com or call (561) 455-4463 for more information
and current flavor details.
Give me mo, mo, mo avocado. This healthy fruit is jam packed
with Vitamins C, E, K, and B-6, riboflavin, niacin, folate, pantothenic
acid, magnesium, and potassium, and provides lutein,
beta-carotene, and omega-3 fatty acids. Not to mention, it’s crazy
delicious. July 31 is National Avocado Day and it’s your green light
to go ahead and indulge in all things avocado. First option brings
you to Caffe Luna Rosa for their Fresh Burrata and Avocado Toast,
which is toasted Challah bread topped with fresh burrata spread,
sliced avocado and red onions, served over a bed of arugula with a
side of heirloom tomatoes tossed in red wine vin and drizzled in a
balsamic reduction and pesto sauce for $19. Or, head to Farmhouse
Kitchen for their not-your-average Avocado Caesar. It’s made with
a sesame-dusted avocado, roasted garlic dressing, truffle pecorino,
jubilee tomato and shaved almonds for $16. Another delicious option
is El Camino’s Avocado Salad, made with avocado, onion, tomato,
queso fresco and a cilantro vinaigrette for $9. Whatever your
choice, you cannot go wrong when you include the green machine.

Sometimes only a deli sandwich will do. Toasty bread, crisp lettuce,
tasty meat and cool condiments all add up to the perfect
solution to satiate any hunger. Good thing for you, July is National
Deli Sandwich Month, and double good thing for all of us, the
Avenue is home to one of the often imitated but never duplicated
sandwich shops around. Sandwiches by the Sea has been dishing
out sandwiches, wraps, salads, and smoothies since 1981. If you
know, you know. If you don’t, now you do. Sure, you can opt for their
turkey, ham and cheese, or roast beef sandwiches, served on
either rye, sliced multi-grain, or 6”/10” white or wheat sub
that start at $8.25, but you could also sink your teeth into
their speciality hoagies. Try the Tidal Wave, which is roast
beef, turkey, muenster cheese, lettuce, tomato, and Russian
dressing for $10.75, or the Hot Sicilian, with Genoa salami,
pepperoni, peppers, melted provolone, and Italian dressing
for $9.95. Regardless of your selection, it will be ready before
you can blink. Sandwiches by the Sea is located at 1214
E. Atlantic Ave. Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or call
(561) 272-2212 for more information.
After being stuck inside
for so many months,
it’s time to get back
outside and experience
some fresh air - socially
distanced, of course.
July is National Picnic
Month and is a great
time to channel your inner
Yogi Bear, dust off the
picnic basket and flannel
blanket, head to your closest
shady spot and pop open a good time. To
make it super easy on yourself, plan for your only
pre-picnic stop to be Bedner’s Farm Fresh Market where you
can score on all of your picnic essentials. Not only do they offer
freshly prepared goodies like soups, salads, sandwiches
and sides, but you can also get fresh bread, cheese, salami and
olives, as well as wine, chips, fresh fruit and more. The picnic
possibilities are endless so pack your favorite beverage and
head on out to your favorite park, beach or Intracoastal hideaway
to indulge. There isn’t much more you’ll need other than
some great music and fun friends, or maybe just a good book
for your party-of-one picnic. 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 and store hours.
Eating watermelon might be one of the only times where
it’s okay to have fruit juice dripping down your face
without worry. July is National Watermelon Month and
gives you an open invitation to scour the markets and restaurants
in search of this cooling and refreshing summer treat. To
kick off your watermelon fest, head to The Atlantic Grille and
enjoy their Arugula & Watermelon Salad. Made with feta, red
onion, mint, and sherry vinaigrette for $13, it’s a great salad
that’ll fill you up without weighing you down. If you prefer to
drink your waju, saunter on over to El Camino and cool down
with their Watermelon-Jalapeno Margarita. Made with Blanco
Tequila, watermelon juice, jalapeño and smoked sea salt, it’ll
give you a refreshing sweat for $12. Pop back a couple before
heading over to Brule Bistro where you can fancy a different
kind of watermelon. Their Pork Belly Banh Mi is made with
watermelon radish, pickled cabbage, cucumber, micro cilantro,
liver pate, chili aioli and a house baguette for $15, and is
a delightful twist on your average sandwich. With all these
tasty options, watermelon never looked so good, don’t you
agree? Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or call (561)
243-1077 for more information.

Everyone will have their list of favorite movies and each
person’s catalog will be different….I wish I could have
included more because I have lots of movies that I love
for various different reasons…But these are for starters!
► Goodfellas (1990) A Martin Scorsese film about a young man
who grows up in the mob and works very hard to advance himself
through the ranks. He enjoys his life of money and luxury but is
oblivious to the horror that he causes. A drug addiction and a few
mistakes ultimately unravel his climb to the top. Based on the book
“Wiseguy” by Nicholas Pileggi. Starring Robert De Niro, Ray Liotta,
Joe Pesci and more.
► Dirty Dancing (1987) Baby
(Jennifer Grey) is one listless summer
away from the Peace Corps. Hoping
to enjoy her youth while it lasts, she’s
disappointed when her summer
plans deposit her at a sleepy resort
in the Catskills with her parents. Her
luck turns around, however, when
the resort’s dance instructor, Johnny
(Patrick Swayze), enlists Baby as
his new partner, and the two fall in
love. Baby’s father forbids her from
seeing Johnny, but she’s determined
to help him perform the last big
dance of the summer.
► Monsters Inc. (2001)
Monsters Incorporated is the
largest scare factory in the monster
world, and James P. Sullivan (John
Goodman) is one of its top scarers.
Sullivan is a huge, intimidating
monster with blue fur, large
purple spots and horns. His
scare assistant, best friend and
roommate is Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal), a green, opinionated,
feisty little one-eyed monster. Visiting from the human world is
Boo (Mary Gibbs), a tiny girl who goes where no human has ever
gone before.
► Shawshank Redemption (1994) Andy Dufresne (Tim
Robbins) is sentenced to two consecutive life terms in prison for
the murders of his wife and her lover and is sentenced to a tough
prison. However, only Andy knows he didn’t commit the crimes.
While there, he forms a friendship with Red (Morgan Freeman),
experiences the brutality of prison life, adapts, helps the warden,
etc., all in 19 years.

Lonely Sarah (Laura Linney), aging rocker Billy Mack (Bill Nighy),
erotic extra John (Martin Freeman) and ‘Just Judy’ (Joanna Page),
New Prime Minister David (Hugh Grant), Jamie (Colin Firth), Colin
Frissell (Kris Marshall). Written and directed by ‘Four Weddings
and a Funeral’ writer Richard Curtis.
► The Martian (2015) When astronauts blast off from the planet
Mars, they leave behind Mark Watney (Matt Damon), presumed
dead after a fierce storm. With only a meager amount of supplies,
the stranded visitor must utilize his wits and spirit to find a way to
survive on the hostile planet. Meanwhile, back on Earth, members
of NASA and a team of international scientists work tirelessly to
bring him home, while his crew mates hatch their own plan for a
daring rescue mission.
► Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) A Steven Spielberg
masterpiece. An epic scientific adventure about a group of people
who attempt to contact alien intelligence. Roy Neary (Richard
Dreyfuss) witnesses an unidentified flying object, and even has a
“sunburn” from its bright lights to prove it. Roy refuses to accept an
explanation for what he saw and is prepared to give up his life to
pursue the truth about UFOs.
► Forrest Gump (1994) Slow-witted Forrest Gump (Tom Hanks)
has never thought of himself as disadvantaged, and thanks to his
supportive mother (Sally Field), he leads anything but a restricted
life. Whether dominating on the gridiron as a college football star,
fighting in Vietnam or captaining a shrimp boat, Forrest inspires
people with his childlike optimism. But one person Forrest cares
about most may be the most difficult to save -- his childhood love,
the sweet but troubled Jenny (Robin Wright).
► Love Actually (2003) All of London is in love, or longing to be,
in this ultimate romantic comedy. Love Actually involves more than
a dozen main characters, each weaving his or her way into another’s
heart over the course of one particularly eventful Christmas. The
cast is impressive; Juliet (Keira Knightley) and Peter (Chiwetel
Ejiofor) bring many of the principals together. Best man Mark

pride by his cruel uncle, who claims he killed his father. While
the uncle rules with an iron paw, the prince grows up beyond the

days. But when his past comes to haunt him, the young prince

and become what he needs to be? Voiced by Matthew Broderick
(Simba) , Jeremy Irons (Scar), James Earl Jones (Mufasa), Rowan
Atkinson (Zazu), Whoopi Goldberg (Shenzi) and more. Songs by Sir
Elton John and Tim Rice, and score by Hans Zimmer.
► Bond, James Bond – An intelligence officer in the Secret
Intelligence Service, commonly known as MI6 has been played
by seven wonderful actors. Sean
Connery, David Niven, George
Lazenby, Roger Moore,
Timothy Dalton, Pierce
Brosnan and Daniel Craig.
Focusing on the latest
007 actor, Daniel Craig
and the five movies he
has starred in: Casino
Royale (2006) Bond
heads to Madagascar,
where he uncovers a
link to Le Chiffre (Mads
Mikkelsen), a man who
finances terrorist
organizations. Learning that Le Chiffre plans to raise money in
a high-stakes poker game, MI6 sends Bond to play against him,
gambling that their newest “00” operative will topple the man’s
organization. Quantum of Solace (2008) Following the death of
Vesper Lynd, James Bond makes his next mission personal. The
hunt for those who blackmailed his lover leads him to ruthless
businessman Dominic Greene (Mathieu Amalric), a key player in
the organization which coerced Vesper. Bond learns that Greene
is plotting to gain total control of a vital natural resource, and he
must navigate a minefield of danger and treachery to foil the plan.
Skyfall (2012) When Bond’s latest assignment goes terribly wrong,
it leads to a calamitous turn of events: Undercover agents around
the world are exposed, and MI6 is attacked, forcing M (Judi Dench)
to relocate the agency. With MI6 now compromised inside and out,
M turns to the one man she can trust: Bond. Aided only by a field
agent (Naomie Harris), Bond takes to the shadows and follows a
trail to Silva (Javier Bardem), a man from M’s past who wants to
settle an old score. Spectre (2015) A cryptic message from the past
leads James Bond to Mexico City and Rome, where he meets the
beautiful widow (Monica Bellucci) of an infamous criminal. After
infiltrating a secret meeting, 007 uncovers the existence of the
sinister organization SPECTRE. Needing the help of the daughter
of an old nemesis, he embarks on a mission to find her. As Bond
ventures toward the heart of SPECTRE, he discovers a chilling
connection between himself and the enemy (Christoph Waltz) he
seeks. No Time To Die (2020) Bond has left active service and is
enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica. His peace is short-lived when
his old friend Felix Leiter from the CIA turns up asking for help.
The mission to rescue a kidnapped scientist turns out to be far
more treacherous than expected, leading Bond onto the trail of a
mysterious villain armed with dangerous new technology.

Rebecca “Bex” Porter must survive her

Nicholas are in self-imposed exile. The
public is angry. The Queen is even angrier.
And the press is salivating. Cutting themselves
off from friends and family, and escaping
the world’s judgmental eyes, feels
like the best way to protect their fragile,
all-consuming romance.
But when a crisis forces the new Duke
and Duchess back to London, the Band-Aid
they’d placed over their problems starts
to peel at the edges. Now, as old family secrets
and new ones threaten to derail her
new royal life, Bex has to face the emotional
wreckage she and Nick left behind: with
the Queen, with the world, and with Nick’s
brother Freddie, whose sins may not be so

Tennis Injuries:
Cutting Edge Treatments and Prevention Strategies
Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is by far one of the
most prevalent injuries in tennis. It is caused by the microtearing
of the extensor group muscles of the elbow. These
muscles are located on the thumb side of the elbow and allow us
to bring our wrist back and side to side. Scar tissue can form in
the muscle belly which can compress important nerves and blood
vessels. It typically occurs secondarily to the use of an aluminum
racquet, incorrect grip measurement, improper backhand technique,
excess weight of the racquet, and too much tension in the strings.
Rotator cuff tendonitis is also caused by micro-tearing in the
belly of the muscle. The muscles involved are the rotator cuff muscles
of the shoulder which originate in the shoulder blade (scapula)
and attach to the upper arm (humerus). Typically we see this occur
with players who serve with an elbow to side angle of less than 90
degrees. Due to the improper mechanics of the serve it typically
also requires the player to serve repeatedly.
A byproduct of the constant running and cutting in tennis is anterior
(front) knee pain located deep, beneath the knee cap (patella).
The patella fails to track or move correctly within the knee
resulting in frictional forces applied to the lower femur bone and
subsequent braking off of small pieces of cartilage. This can lead to
a condition called chondromalacia patella. Pain is usually experienced
when going up stairs and stopping abruptly while running.
The primary goals in treating these disorders are to reduce inflammation,
break up the fibrotic adhesions (scar tissue), strengthen
surrounding musculature and neurological pathways, and restore
proper joint motion. This entails some simple procedures
including myofascial release, passive and active mobilization,
isometric and isotonic strengthening, and joint manipulation (adjustment).
New cutting edge procedures involve the use of high
power class IV lasers which accelerate tissue healing by nearly
tenfold and the use of mirrors in a technique termed mirror imaging
technique which attempts to strengthen the neurological and
immune pathways in the affected limb. In addition, cross cord applications
and eccentric fast stretching are novel procedures which
decrease the healing time.
In terms of nutrition, supplementing with proteolytic enzymes
and essential fatty acids will help to reduce inflammation and
break down scar tissue. Sticking to an anti-inflammatory, low glycemic
index diet will also help to reduce inflammation and insulin
surges which can promote neurological degeneration
Lastly, prevention is the key to avoiding injury all together. Here
are some key tips to increase your longevity and effectiveness on
the court:
1. Utilize a ceramic or graphite racquet with reduced vibration.
2. Choose a lighter racquet -10.5 - 11.5 oz.
3. Make sure you have a correct grip measurement.
4. Use natural gut strings, which have tension 3-5lbs below what
an athlete is used to.
5. Use proper backhand technique.
6. Warm up prior to playing.
7. Focus on core muscle training.
8. Keep your spine in correct alignment.
9. Strengthen lower extremity musculature.
10. Take multivitamin with plenty of anti-oxidants.
A real cutting edge procedure is termed motor imaging technique.
In essence the athlete visualizes in sets and repetition format,
a learned movement such as the various movements on the
tennis court. The visualization must be very detailed in nature.
Scientifically, the neurological pathways involved in the particular
movement are enhanced and other non-pertinent pathways
inhibited. This activity is gaining great notoriety as many of the
top athletes in the world are incorporating this into their treatment
regimen.

Mind Makeover
If you are serious about transforming your
body and getting in the best possible shape
there’s a couple of things you will need to
do before you start your transformation.
You might think I’m going to say…plan your workouts, clean
out your pantry etc…but, not so fast! Before you can start
to transform your body you have to transform your mind.
Transforming your body is pretty much ALL mental. If your mind is
not in the right place your body will not follow suit. I’ve seen it time
and time again in the fitness industry. Your mindset is the ONLY
thing that separates you from having the body of your dreams. It’s
the difference of reaching goals or missing them. With that being
said, here are some things to consider before beginning your
“physical” transformation.
Start by identifying your current mindset. You
may feel frustrated or discouraged about your
current situation. You may feel you have tried
everything to change your body with no success.
You may feel defeated that you gain
and lose the same 10 pounds over and
over. Whatever your situation may be,
you need to realize what feelings you’re
having and why you’re having them.
Once you identify your current
mindset you’ll be able to move forward
with the right type of thinking.
Which brings me to my next
point, the power of positivity.
A positive mindset is a MUST.
We attract what we think about.
We become what we think
about. Positive thoughts yield
positive results. If you start your transformation
with doubts about your abilities or doubts about
hitting your goals you are already setting up for
failure. Know there will be obstacles along the
way, but you need to have the right mindset so
obstacles will not hinder you final result. Whatever
life throws you (life is full of curveballs)
you’ll be ready to handle any situation or bump
in the road. Too many people give up on their
goals because of circumstances totally within
their control. So be ready, willing and able to say
and do, “Whatever comes my way, I’ve got this
and I WILL do this!”
The next key to a successful transformation is that you have to
want it bad enough. If not, then EVERY excuse in the book will
stand in your way. “Oh, I didn’t have time to get to the gym. It was
just a couple extra slices of pizza.” Every person that wants it bad
enough, gets results. The clients that think they want to transform
but don’t have a yearning in their heart for change, don’t. It’s really
as simple as that. New clients will ask, “Do you think I have
what it takes to transform?” And the answer is always, “Yes, anyone
can transform as long as you want it bad enough!” When you want
something bad enough, your heart and head are into it and
with that your body will follow.
The last piece of advice is to leave fear of failure at the
door. There is nothing to be afraid of - the only way to
fail is by not even trying. Fear is often what holds us
back from going after the things we really want in
life. What should really scare you is the thought
of staying stagnant in your current situation.
Imagine living in a body you’re uncomfortable
with for the rest of your life…now
that’s scary! The only way you can
fail is by giving up. Understand
that transforming your body is
marathon not a sprint. Every
“body” is different and each person’s
transformation will take a
different amount of time. For some it
will be three months for some it will be one year.
Whatever it is for YOU, don’t ever give up. Failure will
never be an option.
Before embarking on your physical transformation,
make sure your mind is warmed up and
ready to run with you. Our mind is the most
powerful tool we have and it can either make
us or break us. Use it wisely and your transformation

A Fantasy Trip
Around Ring Road
The entire country is about the size of Maine, but with volcanoes,
icebergs, mountains, black sand beaches, and majestic
fjords, there is much to see and savor. The sea in all its colors
and turbulence is always steps away.
To see Iceland at its best, take the Ring Road. This is a circumference
road that circles the entire country. By renting a car, or for
those who wish more adventure by renting a camper, you can take
the Ring Road around the island and catch the true flavor, cuisine,
cities, farms, and people in all their splendor.
I recommend you take the Ring Road counterclockwise for
two reasons. One, you will be traveling the most beautiful parts
of the country first giving you the option to stay in a place longer.
You may not have the time if you wait until the end of your trip.
Two, you run counter to most of the tourist and will encounter
less congestion.
Renting a 4X4 will give you access to the entire country, especially
if you want to make a side trip off the Ring Road. If you camp,
there are campgrounds in every town and city at a nominal cost.

Whatever you’ve heard, whatever you’ve read, whatever pictures or
videos you’ve seen, they cannot capture the raw, stunning beauty of
Iceland. The best time to visit is the summer and the breathtaking
countryside is just outside of Reykjavik, the capital city.

though, with permission, some farmers will allow ‘overnighting’
for a fee - but it is essential, and etiquette demands, you get permission
first. If you don’t camp, there are lovely hotels and inns at
every juncture on the Ring Road.
When hiking in Iceland you can cross glacier fields, even in
summer, with Shangri- La vistas of enchanted valleys and spectacular
mountain ranges, unworldly to Florida eyes. Rugged
mountain trails can often lead to isolated crystal-cold pristine
waterfalls, over ice caps, or through green lush, mountain meadows
with views that stun. Nowhere on earth will you see volcanoes
and the wild sea, thermal pools, and an almost bare lunar
landscape just miles apart.
On the south coast approximately 6 miles west of the town of
Vik is Dyrholaey (deer-lay) on Ring Road. From the high plateau
above the ocean you will find towering black basalt obelisks that
have withstood the petulant sea.
The cliffs at Dyrholaey are home to the colorful Atlantic Puffin
- with luck you will see one waddle across the sea-sky and come
to rest close by on the cliffs. The colorful top-heavy Puffin is too
heavy to fly, but doesn’t know it. They feed on the rich sea life, doing
their unique flying waddle as their gull cousins slash over the
waves or sail high above the rugged cliffs.
In Vik, just a short walk from the downtown shops and gas stations
is the long and broad black, volcanic sand beach. Caution
needs to be exercised here. The waves are unpredictable and have
fatally latched on to a victim or two. There are wonderful short
day and half-day hikes in the heights above Vik and its beach.
The national park system in Iceland is breathtaking and something
Icelanders are truly proud of. One of the largest National
Parks in Europe is Vatnajokull National Park which was formed
from two earlier parks to preserve an icecap. The hiking here is
spectacular.
Heading further around the Ring Road on the north coast is the
city of Akureyri where whale watching tours can be arranged.
While traveling the Ring Road, every few miles there is another
scenic wonder. There are many scenic jewels and towns to visit as
one makes the circuit around Iceland.
Completing the Ring Road circle, you enter the capital, Reykjavik.The
city is sophisticated and charming, easy to navigate with
great restaurants and fine shopping. It has all the amenities of any
capital in Europe without the congestion or pollution. It is a gem
on this island nation.

SAFETY TIPS FOR TRAVELING IN ICELAND
Iceland is not sunny south Florida and there are essential words
of caution for the traveler. Do not be lulled into complacency. The
weather and other conditions in Iceland can be treacherous, but if
you exercise caution your trip will be a once in a lifetime experience
to a land of raw, untouched beauty.
The wind of Iceland is dangerous an unpredictable. Weather
conditions, even during the best of the summer months, can
change with no warning and became treacherous. The velocity of
the wind on a cliffside fjord can carry one off a cliff, and hypothermia
at upper elevations can take a hiker’s life.
Tourists from warmer climates need to be aware and take necessary
precautions. Before setting out on a hike or trip always
check the weather and road conditions. There is a nationwide
emergency number in English (112) available 24 hours a day.
There is also a weather phone number and website in English
with on-going weather reports and alerts. When hiking, stay on
designated paths - warning signs are sparse in the country and a
fall while off trail can lead to an injury, or worse. It is easy to get
lost and a night stranded in the mountains can be fatal. Always,
hike with a partner, never alone.
Vegetation grows slowly in Iceland and the environment in this
sub-artic country is fragile. It takes many years to build up substantial
growth and Icelanders are careful of it.
There are many thermal pools in Iceland. Some are dangerous,
often not marked as hazardous. The wrong thermal pool can severely
burn.
Respect the Icelandic ocean, it can pull you from the shore with
a surprise killer wave that can sweep you into the unforgiving,
freezing sea.
When traveling in the outback, register your itinerary with
SafeTravel.Is. If you become lost, rescue can be arranged. It is
smart to let this service know where you are going.
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and road washouts are Icelandic
facts of life. Check road and safety conditions in the area you
are traveling. Travel advisories are always on TV - also, check the
website or call the weather number.
If you follow these simple rules your summer travel to Iceland
will bring you memories of a beautiful nation with open, warm
friendly people, who live surrounded by the power and forces of
nature. A declaration of their indomitable, Icelandic Viking spirit.

Important News from
PurLife Fitness Centers

Unprecedented times. Unchartered waters. Unique circumstances.
Whichever way you say it, our world has been rocked the last several
months. We at Purlife Fitness Centers want to welcome you back into our
club. The new standards that we have put in place to ensure your health
and safety is extensive, and we have gone to great lengths to give you a
place to not only return to, but to aid in your overall health in the process.
In addition to abiding to CDC guidelines which include keeping
capacity at 50%, maintaining social distancing by powering off
every other piece of cardio equipment and distancing equipment,
and discontinuing towel service, extra measures have been
taken that include:
- Every staff member’s temperature will be taken before the start
of their shift and all staff wears the appropriate PPE while interacting
with members. In addition, the entire team participates in
our increased cleaning and sanitation schedule, ensuring the entire
facility is disinfected multiple times per day.
- Temperature checks for every member who is looking to enter
the gym, and any member with a temperature above 100.4 will not
be allowed to enter the facility.
- Hospital grade disinfectant and sanitation supplies are being
used throughout the facility.
Additionally, we have repainted all touchable painted surfaces
with new Sherwin-Williams Paint Shield Microbicidal Paint technology.
This technology kills virus and pathogens for up to 4 years
once applied to a surface. Lastly, we have purchased OmniAir Hepa
1000V medical grade air scrubbers that have been placed throughout
the facilities. These units use UV and Peroxide to clean 100% of
the air several times per hour.

We now know, those at the highest risk populations for getting
COVID-19 are individuals older than 65 years and/or with pre-existing
conditions. Although we cannot turn back the clock, there
are two ways Purlife can step in – and that is consistent exercise
and adequate nutritional choices. Guess what the best way is to
prevent falling into a high-risk category? Making healthy lifestyle
choices so you do not get a condition to begin with! Even so, exercise
has been shown and proven beneficial for older adults and
people with chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, arthritis,
or heart disease. Regular exercise is essential for everyone under
normal circumstances. However, here are a few more reasons why
exercise is especially crucial during the COVID-19 pandemic:
• Boosts immune system: research shows that regular, moderate-intensity
exercise has immune-boosting benefits that can help
your body fight off infections, including COVID-19.
• Weight maintenance: Offset the effects of sedentary activities
and burn off those extra calories you may have been consuming
during the lockdown.
• Reduces stress and anxiety: a proven mood-booster and can
help adults reduce stress levels and build emotional resilience.
• Improves sleep: There is evidence that suggests regular exercise
helps you fall asleep faster and improves sleep quality — and getting a
good night’s sleep has also been found to boost your immune system.
Regular exercise improves balance, flexibility, strength, mobility,
and cardiovascular health. Plus, it can boost energy and overall
well-being. Not sure what to do or how to do it? Ask for one of
our highly qualified staff and personal trainers who will guide you
with proper form, creating exercise regiments specific to the individual’s
needs and past history.
We at Purlife are dedicated and committed to not only your fitness,
but to your health and safety. We understand that there are
those of you who may be hesitant to venture back out into the “new
normal.” Whether you are revving to go, on the fence, or hesitant,
we can whole-heartedly say that we have taken every possible precaution
and made every effort to make everyone comfortable and
safe. We did not focus on “What If,” we focused on what we CAN do!

DR. JOHN R. PASQUAL
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon
By diane feen | photos by melissa korman
In a changing world some things need to stay static. And that is a
good thing. It is also a good thing that Dr. John Pasqual is calmly
doing what he always does best - Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery.
The Board-Certified surgeon does everything from facial surgery
to dental implants, extractions, and advanced facial reconstruction.
His operating room has a 42-inch monitor that allows him to see
a digital view of patients’ facial structure and teeth. “With technology
so advanced today, dentistry has evolved immensely. We use
a state-of-the-art diagnostic tool called an i-Cat Cone Beam Imaging
machine. The i-Cat 3D Imaging machine is a great diagnostic
tool for pathology, trauma, facial fractures, tumors and cysts. With
the i-Cat, surgery is more accurate, and I am able to guide implant
placement.”
Dr. Pasqual does not have to tout his accomplishments, his resume
speaks for him. He went to the University of Pittsburgh School
of Dental Medicine, graduated President of his class, he completed
a four-year surgery residency at Case Western Reserve University
MetroHealth Medical Center, a level I trauma center, and spent
two years there as an Anesthesia Fellow. He is a Diplomate of the
American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Diplomate of the
International Congress of Oral Implantologists, and Diplomate of
the National Dental Board of Anesthesiology. He is a Fellow of the
American Association as well as International Association of Oral
and Maxillofacial Surgeons.
Dr. Pasqual did externships in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery at
the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Montefiore University
Hospital and at the University of Texas Health Sciences Center in
San Antonio. He recently became the President Elect for the Atlantic
Coast District Dental Association and is past President of the
South Palm Beach County Dental Association.
Because of his expertise and experience Dr. Pasqual is a Clinical
Associate Professor at University of Florida School of Dental Medicine
and in the Department of Oral Implantology at Temple University.
He also is a prior committee member for Dental Education and
Licensing for the State of Florida.
“We continue to grow exponentially every year and expand to
serve everyone in Palm Beach County and beyond,” said Dr. Pasqual,
whose staff is trained in intravenous sedation. They also have private
rooms and a relaxing setting for patients.
“Pasqual Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery is different from many dental
or medical clinics; we are a very patient-centric office. We focus
on the patients’ physical as well as emotional wellbeing,” he added.
Dr. Pasqual and his staff understand that surgery can be a very
stressful time for patients. “Our goal is to meet with patients for a
consultation, discuss their condition, explain their options and ultimately
perform our very best for them.”
At the Pasqual Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Center the Operating
Room rivals those in a hospital. On the wall of this pristine operating
room is a 42-inch monitor that allows Dr. Pasqual a clear digital
view of patients’ facial structure and teeth. “With technology so advanced
today, dentistry has evolved immensely.
There is one other thing to understand about Dr. Pasqual. “I am a
surgeon. Not all doctors that perform surgery are surgeons. It’s important
to look at a doctors’ credentials and board certifications.”
We agree.
The Pasqual Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Center is one of the few
centers that utilize such advanced technology to benefit patient
care from Er: YAG and Nd: Lasers, to Radiolase radiofrequency scalpel
to platelet rich fibrin (PRF) for wound healing. “I feel good if I
can make a difference in someone’s life. When you know you have
helped someone, and they are better when they leave your office -
it’s a good thing.”
46 | July 2020 | www.AtlanticAveMagazine.com
His excellent care is no secret to those in the industry. Dr.
Pasqual was inducted into the Pierre Fauchard Academy, an
international honor society for excellence in the specialty of
patient care. He is a past Delegate and current Board of Trustee
to the FDA..
Though some like to think of Dr. Pasqual as a Delray treasure,
others recognize his genius. Patients come from Boca Raton,
Palm Beach, Jupiter, Miami and across the country. Dr. Pasqual
has also treated celebrities, renowned musicians, champion
MMA fighters and other high-profile patients.
“I treat several patients that have celebrity-status. However, all
my patients are super-stars to me. It is a true privilege to practice
each and every day. I am humbled that patients that may obtain
medical care anywhere in the world choose my office.”
Patients testify to his dedication and expertise. “Dr. Pasqual’s
technical skills are remarkable. His office and staff are second
to none. But it is his gentle strength and ability to calm and
care for the patient that is most appreciated. No question goes
unanswered and no request seems unreasonable.”
Other agree. “Dr. Pasqual is the best. His staff and follow-up
is impeccable. He called to check on us at the end of the day to
make sure everything was OK. I highly recommend him.”
Nancy is also a fan. “My experience was excellent and my
implant surgery went flawlessly. Dr. Pasqual gave me a reason
to smile again!”
Dr. Pasqual is also involved in charities and organizations
that benefit those in need. He is Chairman of the Board of the
Bethesda Hospital Foundation (for the second time) and volunteers
at the Caridad Center. He and wife Nicole support the
ASPCA, Boys and Girls Club, Make a Wish Foundation, and Delray
Beach Public Library.
There is one thing that is non-negotiable at Pasqual Oral
& Maxillofacial Surgery Center – and that is respect for their
patients. “When patients present to our office it is about being
kind and compassionate. Patients say they are happy they
came to me and recovery was easy. When I hear statements
like this it is truly the greatest reward.”

Summer has always been for the locals. It’s when we take back
Delray Beach, walk right in to our favorite restaurant, get a
seat during happy hour and just enjoy the Ave at our leisure,
without the bustling and traffic that ensues during “season.” This
year is a bit different. Our restaurants, shops and hotels did not
benefit from a full season and have missed out on revenue they will
never see. Now more than ever, they need you to support them and
help #KeepLocalsAfloat.
A staycation isn’t the right word now, since we have all been staying
- so I encourage you to take a “nearcation” or vacation beyond
your backyard. Far enough away to still feel the benefits of being
on vacation, yet close enough to feel safe. There are some great
discounts to be found. Many of our local hotels are running specials
at 20-30% off already discounted nightly rates.
Ready to get out, but not stay out? Take a walk through the Morikami
and enjoy the Gardens, stop by the Cornell Museum, learn
about the History of Delray Beach at the Delray Beach Historical
Society. Do you have little ones? Go to the Sandoway Discovery Center
for an animal feeding or schedule a time at the Delray Beach
Children’s Garden. Read the community’s Covid-19 stories in the
“Unsung” exhibit at the Spady Museum. You can even cruise with
Delray Yacht Cruises or play a round of golf at Putt’n Around.
Not quite ready to get out? Schedule a virtual vacation for yourself
and unplug for a long weekend. Order pickup from your favorite
restaurant, online shop from your favorite boutique and get outside
and enjoy the fresh air!
Supporting local doesn’t just mean shops and restaurants. Spring
would have been fundraising season for many of our nonprofits.
Spend some time with your loved ones and learn more about our
70+ nonprofit members at the Delray Chamber of Commerce and
find one who’s mission really speaks to you. Whether you are able
to donate your time, talent or treasure, each of our nonprofits could
use your help!
Whatever you decide to do this July to support local, we encourage
you to use #KeepLocalsAfloat and post about your experience
on social media! Take a few minutes and write a Google or Facebook
review.

John Brewer
...I have a
soft spot for
restaurants
and truly feel
for what they
go through

Good Guy, Restaurant
Savior and Hometown Hero
If anyone knows how to take
lemons and make lemonade
in a pinch, it’s John Brewer.
The South Florida native co-founded the Socially Distant Supper
Club (SDSC) that has rescued a calvary of family-owned
restaurants from extinction since COVID-19 came to town.
What started out as a quick fix to save faltering food businesses
has become a Facebook Group Page for 15,000 fans and foodies.
It has also saved some restaurants from closing their doors after
being ordered to curtail their businesses amid the pandemic.
For Brewer, the SDSC has been part philanthropy and part history.
His stepfather owned The Driftwood in Lantana and he spent
his teen years busing tables there. “I missed out on a lot in high
school because I had to work at the restaurant. Looking back I realize
it made me who I am. That’s why I have a soft spot for restaurants
and truly feel for what they go through, especially in these
tough times,” said the commercial real estate broker who specializes
in restaurants.
Not only did the Driftwood close after three years, but so did
his parent’s marriage. That life-change cemented Brewer’s appreciation
for family and fatherhood. “I am a big proponent of dads
being involved with their kids. Children need their fathers – or a
supportive male role model,” said Brewer, who will riff on the subject
of fatherhood at the drop of a hat (and is stepdad to Kailan).
Though he did not set out to become a hometown hero with the
creation of the SDSC (with friend Iain Paterson). It just evolved
from a conversation the two had after the pandemic hit South
Florida in March.
“I started seeing restaurants close down; many of them did not
know how to change their business model during the pandemic.
They didn’t know how much food to order or how much help they
needed.”
But luckily Brewer did.
That’s because his history is a mix of jobs that span the map
and the manner of food exchange. The Atlantic High School grad
worked in restaurants and bars in New York City (his favorite being
“dive bars”). He waited tables and managed bars in off-beat
places such as Polly Esther’s, and the Tile Bar on the lower East
Side of Manhattan.
From there he went to Las Vegas and was general manager of
Body English at the Hard Rock Resort & Casino, the Palms and the
Playboy Club.
But after getting reacquainted with his high school sweetheart
(Diane) in 2010, he put roots down in his hometown. “I was ready
to leave Vegas and went to Austin, Texas for an interview but ultimately
came back to Delray. I love Delray and now that I’m home,
it has solidified how I always felt about being here.”
It also solidified his feelings for Diane. The two were married
in 2012 and Brewer went on to become general manager of Max’s
Social House, Ceviche Tapas Bar and the Breakers restaurant HMF.
That’s why he continues to be the cheerleader and fearless leader
of the SDSC. He does live Facebook videos almost daily and has
a Facebook page that hails restaurants newest culinary creations.
It’s not only become a meeting place for foodies around town, but
business has increased exponentially in many restaurants.
When asked for comments about Brewer, 113 people stepped
up to sing his praises: “John Brewer is a Rockstar! A leader who
brought the residents and restaurateurs together to save businesses
and educate residents of lesser known restaurants. It’s a
beautiful thing!” - Anita Teichman-Comiskey.
Rosemary Kelly agrees. “It’s so incredible that the SDSC has
mobilized and led those impacted in our community so positively.
Not only have the restaurants benefited, but as a member
I have learned about so many new places in Delray that I hadn’t
heard of before. Thank you so much - your energy, passion, and
enthusiasm are infectious and inspiring.”
Not only has Brewer been a constant presence on the SDSC
Facebook Page, but his kind heart has been on display as well.
Dina Branham, owner of Wine House Social, saw Brewer jump
into rescue mode when he heard of her plight. He raised money for
her legal bills and rallied the foodies and good Samaritans in Delray.
“John and this group have taken a terrible situation and volunteered
their hearts and souls to support restaurants. As a small
business owner (zoned as a bar and retail store) I wasn’t sure
I would be included. When I reached out I was welcomed with
open arms. The people I’ve met are incredible and It’s been a
blessing. John has such a passion for SDSC and the community.
They helped with my zoning challenges and were generous and
kind throughout the ordeal.”
If you go the SDSC Facebook page you will see Brewer touting
restaurants and showing pictures of their luscious fare. Each day
different restaurants are featured, and a foodie flash mob springs
into action. Local restaurants post their menus with meals (and
specials) available that day. Members check the SDSC Facebook
page and call their orders in a day in advance, giving restaurants
time to prepare the meals.
The concept has been so successful that Brewer and his crew
have been featured on the “Weekend Today” show with Kerry
Sanders. Though Brewer is a superstar of sorts it has not gone to
his head. “I consider myself blessed. This whole SDSC has steamrolled
bigger than me and I want to keep it going. We try to keep
the citizens engaged with what ‘s going on in our village by the sea.”
The “we” are volunteers who help Brewer take command of
the burgeoning demands of this flash mob restaurant COVID
– related concept. There are chapters opening up around the
country and all over Florida. The concept is genius and the congratulations
and salutations are endless.

How Can I Improve
My Pets Immune System?
The last three months have been stressful for all of us, including
our pets. It started with a shortage of toilet paper, then disposable
gloves, facemasks, hand sanitizers and now food, specifically
meat. Everything has changed because of this quarantine. Businesses
have closed; shopping became limited, and many other social
norms have been modified. Our pets’ lives have been affected as well.
You are home when they are used to resting while you were at work.
Now you are walking them to excessively. You are probably overeating
out of stress and boredom and your guilt tells you that they need treats
too. Could this cause a problem? Of course it can, lifestyle changes will
affect your pets in the same manner it affects humans.
If we have learned one thing from this whole endeavor is that we
really need to protect and build a healthy immune system to fight off
health challenges. The immune system is a complex network of cells,
tissues, organs, and the substances they make that helps the body fight
infections and other diseases. The immune system includes white
blood cells, organs, and tissues of the lymph system, such as the thymus,
spleen, tonsils, lymph nodes, lymph vessels, and bone marrow.
The first step in retaining a healthy immune system is removing exposure
to toxins that will debilitate these organs that we need functioning
at their optimal level. Many household and yard products contain toxic,
unnatural components that compromise the immune system. Drugs and
medications often have this same compromising effect. We understand
that we cannot always eliminate exposure toxins that are all around us,
however we can help the body eliminate them once they invade.
Good, species appropriate nutrition is the perfect system for delivering
nutrients that are needed to maintain and build the structure of
the whole body but also acts to remove various toxins that we all have
been exposed to. It is important to have diversity in the diets of our
pets and ourselves as different foods remove specific toxins. Examples
of this are seen with foods such as cilantro and chlorella which can
remove many heavy metals such as mercury and aluminum plus both
are a source of micronutrients needed to strengthen the system.
We also must realize that the body is dynamic which means it is always
changing. Parts or the body break down and rebuild in an ongoing
basis. We have seen complete elimination and healing of pets and their
caregivers with just a simple lifestyle change by revamping the diet.
The impact of supplying the cleansing and nutritive power of a variety
of different botanicals, herbal foods and spices into the body impacts
the energetic process to heal and to fight the assaults on the body.
We know it is not about what we face but how the body responds to
these assaults. Our pets often reflect and respond to our energies and
fears. The stronger our physical, mental, and emotional strength, the
stronger the immune response will be. The cleaner our environment
and our food supply are, the healthier our immune system which will
result in a more resistant body. We feel that it is imperative that we
follow this system of immune building as an ongoing lifestyle change.
Upon doing this, we can all be more confident in standing up to fight
any physical threats that we encounter.
