Our fans are thrilled to have this great Magic team and look forward to them bringing the NBA Championship to our fair city.

> On a beautiful Friday morning in Celebration, FL, actor Anthony Anderson sat comfortably on a rocking chair and rested up for the 7th Annual Celebration Exotic Car Festival. This year’s Exotic Car Festival is being held to benefit the Special Olympics, and Anthony Anderson couldn’t be more thrilled to be in Orlando to help raise awareness for the cause.
Arnold Palmer. Whenever I come to Orlando it’s usually always to hang out with friends and play golf. I also have a TV show on the Golf Channel called Golf in America. So when I’m in Orlando it is usually for golf.
Q: Is this the first time you have been involved in the Exotic Car Festival?
A: I’ve been a part of Law and Order now for the last 3 seasons. They are tied for the record of the longest running one-hour drama in television history. I started on SVU, but now I’m on the original. I also have a new film coming out next week. It’s called The Back Up Plan, and J.Lo is my co-star. I am also filming a movie in Canada with Jack Black.
A. Yes it is. My friend, Jeff Ippoliti organizes the event. He got in contact with me and wanted to know if I would be interested in getting involved. I heard about the event before and I was really happy to get the chance to come out. Anything I can do to bring my celebrity name to charity and help raise money, especially as big as the Special Olympics, I always try to be a part of it. It’s all about bringing awareness of the children and of the Special Olympics.
Charity Talk With Anthony Anderson By: Dana Damato Read more at: StyleToMe.com
Q: Are you involved in any other charity? A: I am involved in several, one being for diabetes. I am a diabetic myself and I lost my father to the disease. I also support a home in Carson, California called Charlotte’s House. It’s a home for battered women and children. I am one of their main contributors and have been for about 7 years.
Q: Have you always wanted to be an actor? A: Actually, no. Growing up I wanted to be either a lawyer, a football player for the Dallas cowboys, or an actor. I realized at the age of 9 that if I was an actor I could be all three of those things. Since then I have played a lawyer and a football player! Q: So last but not least, tell me about your love life! A: I’m married with two children. I have a 14-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son. I’m a simple man with simple pleasures.
Q: What do you like to do the most when you come to Orlando?
Q: Any last words for our readers?
A: I play a lot of golf whenever I come to Orlando!
A: I love coming to Orlando. It’s a beautiful city, very scenic! Enjoy the weather!<
Q: Where do you play? A: I love playing in Isleworth and Bay Hill. I was supposed to play this weekend with

> Orlando Magic center, and 2009-10 NBA Defensive Player of the Year, Dwight Howard has been rubbing shoulders with the elite talent in the NBA since entering the 2004-05 NBA Draft right out of Southwest Atlanta Christian Academy (SACA). Elected by a panel of the NBA’s 30 head coaches, Dwight tops a list of five super players including the likes of Rajon Rondo, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Gerald Wallace on the NBA’s 2009-10 NBA All-Defensive First Team. The statistical accolades are many but this special athlete brings a lot more to the table than outstanding numbers. Born in Atlanta not quite 25 years ago to Dwight Sr. and Sheryl Howard, Dwight came equipped with some exceptional
in 2005 and 36 wins again in 2006. Not since losing Shaquille O’Neal in 1996, have Magic fans enjoyed the luxury of having their own intimidating big man at center and in the 2006-07 season things began falling into place with the Magic making the playoffs for the first time since 2003. Although the Magic was swept by the top-seeded Detroit Pistons in Howard’s first playoff series, Dwight continued to blossom and the following season was selected to the Eastern Conference All-Star team. The 2007-08 season brought big changes to the Magic as new Head Coach Stan Van Gundy helped guide Howard and the Magic to a 52-30

athletic, academic and spiritual genes provided by his parents. Dwight Sr. was a Georgia State trooper and the Athletic Director of SACA, while Sheryl Howard was a former member of the Morris Brown College women’s basketball team. During Howard’s early childhood, he dreamt of one day being the top pick in the NBA Draft, a dream realized when the Magic selected him with the first overall pick in the 2004 NBA Draft. The Magic drafted Howard over University of Connecticut power forward Emeka Okafor, a seasoned favorite with 4 years of Big East basketball experience including a National Championship.

As a seventh grader in 1998, the big, strong and quick Howard ran the SACA offense as a point guard but quickly transitioned to power forward on the varsity team by 2000 after sprouting to 6’10” almost overnight. The fast transition from speedy point guard to a 6’10” forward was nearly seamless, as Howard already possessed the quick hand and footwork ability necessary to posting-up opposing players. These skills presented the Magic with a golden opportunity to groom a new NBA center and by the beginning of his second season with the Magic, Dwight had ‘beefed up’ another 20 pounds of pure muscle, along with another inch or so skyward. Although the team failed to make the playoffs by only 3 games in Howard’s sophomore season, the Magic improved from 21 wins in 2004 to 36 wins

record. Having home court advantage in the playoffs for the first time since the 1998-99 season, the Magic eliminated the Toronto Raptors 4-1 but fell to Detroit in the second round, 4-1. 200809 saw continued improvement as the Magic finished the regular season 59-23; this time going all the way to the NBA Finals before bowing to the Lakers 4-1. Dwight earned his first NBA Defensive Player of the Year award in 2009, amassing 13.8 rebounds and 2.92 blocks per game. A further testament to his overall athletic ability was cemented with his 20.6 points per game scoring average of 57.2 percent shooting from the floor. This brings us to the present. The Magic finished the 2009-10 regular season 59-23, matching their previous year’s record. After a first round sweep of the Charlotte Bobcats and the Conference Semifinal sweep of the Atlanta Hawks, the Magic appears to be picking up steam. With a second straight selection as Defensive Player of the Year, chalking up 13.2 rebounds and 2.78 blocks per game, complemented by a scoring average of 18.2 points per game, Dwight Howard has once again proven to be a strong leader and we wish him and the team good health and continued success. <

The FIFA World Cup, occasionally called the Football World Cup or Soccer World Cup, but usually referred to simply as the World Cup, is an international association football competition contested by the men’s national teams of the members of the world Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), the sport’s global governing body. The championship has been awarded every four years since the first tournament in 1930, except in 1942 and 1946 when it was not contested because of World War II. The current format of the tournament involves 32 teams competing for the title at venues within the host nation(s) over a period of about a month – this phase is often called the World Cup Finals. A qualification phase, which currently takes place over the preceding three years, is used to determine
which teams qualify for the tournament together with the host nation(s). During the 18 tournaments that have been held, seven nations have won the title. Brazil has won the World Cup a record of five times, and they are the only team to have played in every tournament. Italy, the current champions, has won four titles, and Germany has three titles. The other former champions are Uruguay, winners of the inaugural tournament, and Argentina, with two titles each, and England and France, with one title each. The World Cup is the most widely viewed sporting event in the world, where an estimated 715.1 million people watched the final match of the 2006 World Cup held in Germany. This World Cup will be held in South Africa, between 11 June and 11 July 2010, and the 2014 World Cup will be held in Brazil. Below are the groups playing:

4 Wheel Neck Snapper 2011 McLaren MP4-12C
> The first in a range of high performance sports cars from the home of the worlds most successful racing car company, the McLaren MP4-12C is set to re-write the rules of sports car design through Formula 1-inspired engineering, revolutionary chassis architecture, and absolute focus on efficiency. The McLaren MP4-12C represents pure McLaren; from unique engineering to its bespoke design – where everything happens for a reason. The McLaren MP4-12C is the first in a range of high-performance sports cars from McLaren Automotive, the independent car division based at the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking, England. The 12C, and future models within the range, will challenge the worlds best sports cars, benefiting from the expertise and virtuosity of the McLaren Group. All the parts of the McLaren MP4-12C are bespoke and unique to this car. Everything from the engine right down to the tailor-made switches and buttons is pure McLaren: nothing has come from another manufacturers parts bin.
The 12C is powered by a bespoke McLaren M838T 3.8 litre, V8 twin-turbo engine producing around 600bhp, driving through a McLaren seven speed Seamless Shift dual clutch gearbox (SSG). It is targeting not only new standards for power and performance in its sector, but also class-leading fuel economy and CO2 emissions; supported by McLarens experience of active aerodynamics to aid cooling, grip, handling and road holding. Thorough engineering and market research led to concept development and a clear decision in favor of a mid-engined two door high performance sports car. Intensive work was carried out in the wind tunnel and the driving simulator to ensure that the new car would inherently have superb dynamic qualities.
cess in motor sports. “The advantage of technology transfer is only one element; speed of decision-making and development, F1 processes and people all make an important contribution.” “Brake Steer, for example, is a technology we pioneered on our Formula 1 car back in 1997. It helps to dial out understeer on entry to a corner and improves traction on the way out. Another is the Pre-Cog function on the gearshift rocker that effectively primes the gearbox for the next change, ensuring a more satisfying and faster gearchange. This is a high performance sports car with race car genes and teamwork at its heart.”<
Dick Glover, McLaren Automotive Technical Director, was closely involved with the development of these invaluable tools during his time with McLarens Formula 1 race team. “There are so many examples of race car process and technology transfer in the 12C,” claims Glover. The car owes much to McLarens experience and suc-

2. Don’t Let a Tip Jar Send You on a Guilt Trip. You see a tip jar at your local coffeehouse or sandwich joint and you suddenly feel like Hamlet: To tip or not to tip? Unless you get great service, there is no need to tip the barista at Starbucks. If there’s a jar at the carwash and the crew gives your ride a little extra TLC, consider leaving something. But don’t feel obligated. “It’s up to you whether you want to throw some change in the jar,” says Lizzie Post, great-great-granddaughter of Emily Post. “If you’re a regular customer, tip on occasion.”

> 1. Stay Tip-Top All Year. The standard restaurant tip is still 15% to 20% of your pre-tax bill (if you’re dissatisfied with your server, leave 15% anyway and tell the manager why you weren’t happy.) But other service providers should get a little extra, too. For taxi drivers, figure 10% to 15%, depending on whether they help you with your bags. Valet-parking attendants should get a buck or two once they return your car-unscathed. Hair stylists and massage therapists should pick up an extra 15% to 20% per visit-with the exception of the owner, whose pride would be offended, says etiquette maven Judith Martin (also known as Miss Manners).

caps at U.S. airports get $1 per bag. Cabin stewards on a cruise ship leaving from a U.S. port usually get $3 a day (but look online to see whether service is included). Once you arrive overseas, check your guidebook to see what the local custom is. In Western Europe, you generally leave a nominal tip if you really liked the food and service, to say “thank you” and to show appreciation at a restaurant, or you don’t need to tip at all. Usually the tip (or service charge) is already calculated in the price. If not, consider leaving about 10% in an upscale restaurant. At a pub in the U.K., instead of tipping the bartender, you might offer to buy him a drink. In Denmark, you’re not expected to tip servers or taxi drivers, says fashion designer Kate Spade in her book Manners (Simon & Schuster). And if you ever make it to Iceland, Spade writes, don’t even think about tipping a waiter. It’s considered rude.
Yes, tipping is discretionary. But the recession has changed the rules. Consider opening your wallet a little wider now, especially if you experience superior service. Why? The workers you tip are at the low end of the pay scale. “Everyone’s watching his or her pennies, but these people need tips even more,” says Lydia Ramsey, business-etiquette expert and author of Manners That Sell: Adding the Polish That Builds Profits.

5.‘Tis the Season. Just about anyone who serves you during the year should get a token of appreciation.The norm for your nanny and house cleaner is a week’s pay. Your mail carrier is not allowed to accept cash, but you can give him or her a gift valued at $20 or less.Your newspaper carrier, trash collector and UPS driver should get 20 to 25 bucks. Appropriate gifts for hair stylists (whether they own the shop or not) include the cash equivalent of one appointment or a nice bottle of bubbly. If you have kids in school, don’t give the teacher cash–it could be construed as a bribe. Suggest that all of the parents chip in for a gift certificate. <

> Why do I have to remind people that Orlando is a happening place? It may not be as weird as Austin, but it certainly belongs on the list with hip and cool cities like Seattle and Portland. We have the Orlando Magic, Disney World AND we’re getting the NBA All-Star Game in 2012. Not to mention that this month was full of great charity events, fashion and style.
David Yurman Charity Event at Mall at Millenia, Photo: Brion Price
In Case You Missed It News, Events + Gossip from around the city By: Alex Holland Read more at: StyleToMe.com
Where to begin: Luxury shopping and cocktails combined when David Yurman and Ronald McDonald House held a charity cocktail event at the DY store in the Mall at Millenia. This event helped to raise money for programs that provide assistance for children who are hospitalized–while showcasing their gorgeous jewelry and timepieces. Speaking of great charity events, if you love fashion and didn’t know what to do after the end of Season 7 of Project Runway, you would have loved the runway show for Fashion Funds the Cure on May 7th. Saks Fifth Avenue at the Florida Mall hosted this incredible fashion and charity event to raise money for children with pediatric cancer. While there are plenty of great cocktails and hors d’ouevres, the highlight of the event is the children battling cancer, who courageously walked the runway. NBA great Julius Erving attended alongside local Celebs like Joey Fatone, Buddy Dyer and Alan Grayson. Mark and Josie Nejame helped to put this fabulous event together, along with local restaurant sponsors, including Copper Canyon Grill and Vines Grille and Wine Bar. If you love amazing photography, then you can’t get better than Snap! This fantastic 4-day photography exhibition, that included works by the unbelievable photographers Garrett Yamasaki and Lionel Deluy, kicked off with a fabulous VIP Party at Global Gallery. Our own Orlando Style helped sponsor this snappy event that also featured the auction of an autographed iconic photo of Marilyn Monroe that was taken by
styletome.com
Douglas Kirkland–another one of the photographers whose work was on display at Snap! No need for us to repeat: We had a great time at this event: when is Patrick Khan going to put something like this together again?We hope Snap! is a new tradition for Orlando photography lovers. Going on at the same time as Snap! was the Orlando edition of the Fringe Festival. The Fringe Festival concept grew up in Scotland in 1947 and is now in its 19th year in Orlando. If you’ve missed it the last 18 years, the Fringe Festival is a 12-day theater festival that features some of the most interesting and bizarre theatrical performances that any town could offer. And because the festival is unjuried, the variety of content and quality performances that you can see at Fringe varies– widely. While we always try to see all of the shows, we’re glad that it’s only once a year–a show a day after 12 days is exhausting. Looking for a break from Fringe, we headed over to Velvet Sessions to catch the Psychedelic Furs. If you love great music and creative cocktails in VIP venues, Velvet Sessions is an awesome alternative to Orlando’s usual music scene. May was a great month for a lot of things: music, fashion, photography, theater, style– –the list goes on an on. We had a blast! We’re looking forward to next month, where there’ll be even more hot parties and charity events. Thankfully a lot of the best events for June and July take place in cool spots with even cooler mixed drinks.< Know of a not-to-be-missed event? Do Tell!

> It’s good to be a man. You tend to be judged on more than just the sum of your parts. Women are often attracted to men who aren’t classically handsome: Think Tony Soprano and Jerry Seinfeld. What’s sexy to us can be quirky, and it often is. Physical beauty aside, cleanliness is king. And nothing gets a guy the royal treatment quicker than some basic good grooming. Trust me; women adore the clean shaven, fresh scent of a man much more than his primped and preened counterpart. When it comes to the hair, there are no hard and fast rules. Well, maybe a few. Nose hair? Trim it. Ear hair? Ban it. We’re less concerned with the hair on your head than you may think. Bald, blond or buzzed, what makes the man is so much more than his fade or lack thereof. That said, a unibrow has wrecked even the most rugged of good looks. Plus, having hair in the wrong places is much more of a turn off than not having hair in the right places.

Trim nose hairs at least twice a month with an electric trimmer such as the TurboGroomer 5.0 from ($59.95).The same trimmer can be used to trim hair in the inner ears as needed. Use the interchangeable miniclipper to trim the ear’s outer edge at least once a month.
Maintain the hair you have in the right places with Gage for Men. Whether in the shower, or in the gym bag, Gage for Men products make a statement with sophisticated packaging and effective formulas. Face it. No matter how much gel you use, a man’s hair is more like a man’s mess by the end of the workday. This product excels at cleansing even the greasiest of hair. With the clean scent of spearmint, Gage’s Hydrating Hair and Body Wash maintains soft skin while the Daily Conditioner leaves the hair and scalp refreshed and ready for action. My man has been known to indulge in a massage and he’s no neophyte. He knows what he likes and won’t accept less. His pick is usually a 90-minute sports massage. Pedicures? He’s game. Some men won’t let anyone near their feet. It’s not pretty. I surveyed my girlfriends and compared to some of the funky male feet we’ve seen, a man in a pedicure throne is hot. So gentlemen, if you’ve found this article tucked in your briefcase or even left open on the kitchen table, take note; someone’s trying to tell you what a girl wants. Pay attention and you just may get what you want. And that’s a beautiful thing.< Tweezerman’s automatic tweezer $9.95

Unibrows must not be ignored. Here’s a simple test: Place your pointer finger between your eyebrows; if there’s hair there it’s time to divide and conquer. To banish too much brow hair I recommend tweezing. Try not to shave, guys. (Although it’s better than doing nothing.) Use slant-

Your clothing should have enough room to fall/ drape but should not be baggy.

Raw Hamachi
“Tiradito Style” By: Chef Norman Van Aken Read more at: StyleToMe.com
• Avoid bold patterns in ties and shirts, as they will draw attention to your upper and mid section. Choose more muted or solid colors or simple patterns.
• The V neck cut on shirts, vests or sweaters give the appearance of a slimmer neckline and longer torso. Avoid turtlenecks as they cause the neck to disappear completely. • A three-button blazer will elongate and slim your frame. • Wear wide shirt collars for regular ties and narrower collars for skinny ties. • Wear a belt to draw in at your waist. • Avoid horizontal and diagonal stripes in ties, suits and shirts as they will widen and shorten your frame. • Stand up straight.
• Dress proportionate to your body type.
• Keep shirt tucked in.
For example:
• Keep jacket buttoned while standing to keep the gut hidden.
Don’t wear lapels on your suit that are too narrow for your body type but don’t wear ones that are too wide. If you are thin or short, wear skinny ties. If you are heavier
• And finally, empty your pockets - bulging pockets add to hip size and can give the appearance of a pear-shape.<

2.5-3 ounces of Hamachi, trimmed and very thinly sliced on the bias 1 Tablespoon jicama, peeled and finely diced 1 Tablespoon jalapeño, stemmed, seeded and finely diced 1-2 Tablespoons, (as desired), Pineapple Sesame Dressing, (Recipe below).

Whisk all together vigorously. Refrigerate until needed. Use as needed. <
Now scatter the finely cut jicama and jalapeño down the center area of the fish. If desired, sprinkle some mixed black and white sesame seed for garnish as well as a few drops of sesame oil to finish the dish.

ID on Demand
Orlando Now/Business News By: Mark NeJame Contributor : Eric Barker Read more at: StyleToMe.com
> Recently, on talk radio, the issue as to whether or not a police officer could just walk up to anybody and demand that the person present some identification was debated. Some thought that citizens must show identification to police when asked and that it may even be a crime not to have identification on you at all times. Others felt the police couldn’t ask us for identification and that we don’t have to identify ourselves to law enforcement at any time for any reason. After all, we have the right to remain silent and not tell the police anything, including our names, don’t we? The answer to this question is a definite maybe, and depends on the circumstances. Generally speaking, the courts recognize that there are 3 levels of encounters between police and citizens. The first and least obtrusive is the “consensual encounter”. This is where an officer approaches a citizen and makes a request, i.e. “Can I see your ID?” The officer in this situation has no reasonable suspicion that the person is committing a crime, but for whatever reason, wants to initiate contact with the person. The citizen is free to comply with the officers request, ignore the officer and walk away, or tell the officer there is no way on earth he is giving the officer his or her ID. The officer has the right to ask; the citizen has the right to walk away. The second level of interaction between citizens and police officers is called an “in-
styletome.com
vestigatory stop”. This is when an officer actually detains a citizen, and that citizen does not have a legal right to walk away. In order for an officer to make an investigatory stop, the officer must have a well founded, reasonable, articulable suspicion that the person they are detaining has just committed, is in the process of committing or is about to commit a crime. In this instance, if the officer does indeed have this “reasonable suspicion” that the person is involved in a crime, the officer can detain the person and demand that the person identify themselves. However, since there is no law that currently mandates that we carry personal identification with us at all times (not yet anyway, but I won’t be shocked when that law passes), identification sometimes can simply be accomplished by providing a name and date of birth. However, citizens should not give a false name as many officers have laptops in their patrol cars and can quickly pull the driver’s license photo of the name given. If the photo on the laptop does not match the name given, under certain circumstances, the person could be arrested for giving a false name or resisting arrest without violence. This is true even if it is determined that the officer’s “reasonable suspicion” that the person was committing a crime ended up being not true. The third and final level of interaction is when the officer is making an arrest. As in the “investigatory stop”, the citizens are required to identify themselves.
So, if you’re approached by an officer who wants to ask you questions and you don’t really want to strike up a new friendship at that moment, simply ask the officer if you are free to leave. If he says yes, you may leave and go about your business (or continue on in your slacking off) and walk away. If you are told that you are not free to leave, ask the officer what reason he thinks he has to detain you. Make sure you let him know that you know your rights and you’re not acquiescing to his unreasonable and unconstitutional demands. Then, when you pick yourself off of the ground and dust yourself off, don’t forget to ask the officer if you can have your ID back.<

ing area on the lagoon stage. Or check out the free fireworks display and laser show at Lake Eola in downtown Orlando. Residents and visitors alike pack picnic baskets and comfortable blankets for an old-fashioned summertime picnic. And don’t miss the 50th Annual NASCAR Coke Zero 400. This race has been an Independence Day weekend tradition for nearly five decades, and this year’s event promises to be the best one yet. For a smart way to get away from home at a great value, spend your day at the rock and roll-themed pool at Universal’s Hard Rock Hotel® which features a 240-foot water slide and an underwater audio system. Swim the lagoon past the Royal Bali Sea, a fictional shipwreck situated in the sands of the zeroentry pool, at Loews Royal Pacific Resort. At the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress, enjoy 12 free-form waterfalls, two waterslides and a swim-through grotto. Or at the Grand Bohemian Hotel’s canopy-draped rooftop pool, swim with crystal chandeliers positioned overhead. At Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park, Cross Country Creek lets you cool down as it takes you on a tour of the entire park.

For Your Eyes Only! Read more at: StyleToMe.com
> In our March 2010 issue, we presented our first in a series featuring “Elite Doctors” in the Orlando area. In this month’s issue, we concentrate on Doctors of Optometry (OD) and Doctors of Ophthalmology (MD), both being providers of vision care. Most colleges of Optometry first require successful completion of a four-year undergraduate degree beginning with courses in General Biology and Chemistry, Algebra and Trigonometry, followed by advanced studies in Organic Chemistry, Microbiology, Bacteriology, Calculus, Physics, Physiology, Biochemistry, Anatomy, etc. OD candidates must then successfully complete an additional fouryear accredited degree program at one of the twenty (20) colleges of Optometry, so the educational investment is extremely rigorous, time consuming and also requires a substantial financial commitment. Optometrists perform examinations to diagnose vision problems such as near or farsightedness, test for depth and color perception, ability to focus, glaucoma and other eye related conditions caused by diabetes or high blood pressure. Although they do not perform eye surgery as in Ophthalmology, OD’s prescribe and fit eyeglasses, contact lenses, certain medications to treat vision problems or eye diseases and provide vision therapy and rehabilitation. Ophthalmologists, on the other hand must be medical doctors (MD’s) prior to studying Ophthalmology, then they must complete a three to five year residency in an approved program and must pass an examination to become certified. Ophthalmologists are licensed for all aspects of eye care including diagnosis, management and surgery of ocular diseases and disorders. He or she receives a minimum of 12 years of education beyond high school. We are pleased to present a pristine collection of specialty eye care physicians practicing in our area. <

ELITE EYE CARE
Celebration Eye Care Dr. Margaret Grand is a graduate of The New England College of Optometry in Boston, Massachusetts. She is in partnership with her husband Dr. Ronald Grand. Both are Board Certified Optometric physicians. Their daughter Michele Grand works with them and is a Florida Board Certified Optician. Dr. Margaret Grand did two internships at Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, Israel. One internship in pathology, and the other in pediatric low vision. Before moving to Florida she had a private practice in Newport, RI and was on the staff at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary in Boston, Massachusetts. After moving to Florida, she was asked by the developers of Celebration if she and her husband would open a practice in Celebration and be the eye doctors there. They opened the practice in 1996. While in Celebration they have worked with Florida Hospital at Celebration Health participating in their Health Fairs. They also have worked with Disney in fitting many of their characters with contact lenses and have done one film and supplied eyewear for several commercials. They currently work with the Atlanta Braves while they are here for Spring Training. Dr. Margaret Grand is a member of the American Optometric Association and the Florida Optometric Association. She has served as an examiner for the Florida Board of Optometry. Dr. Margaret Grand is past president of the Rotary Club of Celebration and past president of the Celebration Area Council for the Osceola Chamber of Commerce. Celebration Eye Care is located in beautiful downtown Celebration. It is a primary Optometric practice for the entire family.
Dr. Grand feels all family members should have annual comprehensive eye examinations. In children, as they grow and develop, their eyes grow and change. While they are in school there is a great demand on their visual systems, if the children can not see it, they can not learn it. For adults, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like having an eye physical, for there are many things that can go wrong with the eye that are painless. In their eye examinations, Celebation Eye examines the whole visual system including the general health of the eye. They examine and follow patients with cataracts, diabetes, and other systemic diseases that can affect the eye. They treat and follow patients with glaucoma, macular degeneration, dry eyes, Latisse treatments, and do all pre and post operative care for Lasik. Celebration Eye Care specializes in contact lenses. They fit regular and color contact lenses and also fit cosmetic lenses for patients who have disfiguring eye diseases or eye injuries. They also fit lenses for astigmatism, bifocal, and theatrical contact lenses. Their optical is a beautiful area consisting of over 1000 frames to choose from.They carry many designer frames and sunglasses. Some of the designers carried consist of Dolce and Gabbana, Gucci, Giorgio Armani, Dior, Cole Haan,Versace, Burberry, Jimmy Choo, Prada, and Oakley. They offer all types of lenses, coatings and tints to accommodate and customize all visual needs, including sports, computer, driving, reading and hobbies.

Don‘t Miss the beat
Usher’s Newest Confessions By: Alicia Satchfield Read more at: StyleToMe.com
ing, but any mood can be reached with this album that also explores tender subjects. The song “OMG” from Raymond v Raymond reached # 1 on the Billboard Top 100 chart in May, making it his ninth number one hit. The song, featuring Black Eyed Peas’ beat master Will.i.am, has a catchy beat and repeating phrases reminiscent of great R&B songs, and essentially goes through the emotions felt as Usher sees a beautiful woman dancing in a club. On the flip side, “Guilty” shows the mixed emotions of a man dealing with two different worlds, emphasizing that honesty is only one facet of a successful relationship.
Get ready to fill those MP3 Players. Check out this list of albums to watch out for this Summer.

Christina Aguilera Album: Bionic Release Date: 06/08/10
> Usher Raymond, known by all as Usher, has wowed the R&B music scene with his lively and relevant sound since his self-titled debut album in 1994. The 32-year-old artist recently released his hyped-up seventh album Raymond v Raymond, a musical journey through the struggle Usher approaches when confronting the two different sides of his life—the glamorous music world where he remains a prime entertainer and sex symbol, and the reality of his day to day achievements and disappointments. The album’s sound includes a mixture of Usher’s 2004 album, Confessions, and his 2008 album, Here I Stand. Many of the songs are dance tracks that encourage more than a little hip shak-

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;t Miss the beat
Usher has been dominating the R&B scene for over a decade. He received his first recording contract at the age of fourteen after being spotted by an agent at a talent show in his hometown of Atlanta. Since then he has won fame with hits such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;You make me wannaâ&#x20AC;?, â&#x20AC;&#x153;You got it badâ&#x20AC;? ,â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah!â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Burn.â&#x20AC;? According to his official website, Usher became the first solo artist to have three singles in the top 10 of the Billboards Hot 100 Chart. Earlier this year the cheerful and generous singer appeared on different shows including Ellen Degeneres, Good Morning America, and American Idol promoting his new album and mentoring the Idols. Usherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charisma and knowledge set him apart as he merges a hip sound with light and heavy themes. On his website, Usher describes his new album as a balance of â&#x20AC;&#x153;the perception and the person.â&#x20AC;? He uses his music to help fans understand that he is a real man who deals with the sometimes-unstable dichotomy that has women and â&#x20AC;&#x153;wild nightsâ&#x20AC;? on one side and his â&#x20AC;&#x153;emotions, loves and real life experiencesâ&#x20AC;? on the other. The album was actually recorded in two different American cities- Las Vegas and Atlanta- that conceptually represent the theme of perception versus reality. Atlanta clearly embodies the reality side of the equation, as Usherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Georgia hometown where he sang in the church choir prior to being discovered. Usherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interests extend beyond the front of the music scene. As a producer, designer, and businessman, he has been spending as much time in the boardroom as he does on stage. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tried his talented hand at acting, and succeeded, appearing on television, in movies, and even in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chicagoâ&#x20AC;? on Broadway. His website quotes him as being motivated by legends Bob Fosse and Sammy Davis Jr. Usher explains,â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were triple threatsdancing, acting, and singing. It really inspired me. I want to live up to that title and showcase all of my talents and be able to say Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve experienced it all, and had fun in the process.â&#x20AC;? He is well on his way to experiencing it all as he co-owns the Cleveland Cavaliers basketball team and sells fragrances for men and women at department stores. Usher now has his own record label, US Records, and has recently been busy helping Justin Bieber, his latest musical discovery. The Emmy winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s national tour dates for Raymond v Raymond are still a work in progress, but be sure to listen for his modern and energetic sound on the radio as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lil Freakâ&#x20AC;?, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey Daddyâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;OMGâ&#x20AC;? work their way up the charts.<

LOOK FABULOUS ;][[g ;OYS]dS`a
By George H. Pope, MD, FACS Can a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body ever return to its pre-pregnancy shape after childbirth and breastfeeding? Many women find that no matter how much they diet and exercise, and even if they lose all of the weight they gained, they are still not happy with their figure. The abdominal wall may have weakened or even separated, pockets of fat may have lodged in the stomach, hips, thighs or flanks, the abdominal skin may have stretched, and after pregnancy and breastfeeding, the breasts may have deflated and sagged. For many, the Mommy Makeover is the solution. The Mommy Makeover is not a specific procedure. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a combination of procedures or treatments tailored to your unique needs. It may include breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck, laser treatments (for skin changes, including melasma), and liposuction. You might even be interested in laser hair removal to simplify your busy life! The costs, recovery time and results will vary for each individual. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is the first step in answering these questions. Your surgeon will help determine if your expectations are reasonable and develop a plan for your Mommy Makeover. We usually recommend that you wait six months or more after having a baby before considering cosmetic surgery. This gives your body and your life a chance to return to normal after delivery. In general, your results will be best if you are at a stable weight, do not smoke and have finished breastfeeding. If you are planning to have more children, you should wait to have your makeover. If you would like to know more, or would like to schedule a consultation, please call my office.We look forward to helping you achieve your dreams! E-mail your questions to drpope@orlandoplasticsurgerycenter.com or call 407.857.6261 for more information. 3872 Oakwater Circle at S. Orange Avenue Look your best with the latest cosmetic procedures and products. Dr. George Pope is a board certified plastic surgeon in Orlando

Cultivating the Cosmopolitan
Orange County Commissioner Mr. Bill Segal By: Jennifer Marcus Read more at: StyleToMe.com
Left : Bill Segal
>One thing Bill Segal wants to hear from Orange County residents is: “I like my Cosmo?” The Orange County Commissioner is not talking about the popular ladies drink of choice, but rather the city in which they choose to live. While the cities of Miami, Atlanta and Charlotte might be attracting young professionals, Segal wants Orlando to be the cosmopolitan drink of choice, if you will. And if elected as Orange County Mayor, Segal will work to create more job opportunities, continue to reduce crime while supporting local law enforcement, and be the leader this county needs and deserves. During these difficult economic times, Segal understands that the city of Orlando is
styletome.com
running on limited resources. The number one thing to do, he says, is to create jobs. As a businessman himself for nearly forty years here in Central Florida, Segal says he is the best candidate to understand budgets, manage people and speak the language of business. “Business and economics is my hobby.” Something most people don’t know about Segal is that he owned and managed seven successful chains of the restaurant Chin China, employing 100 people. He wants voters to ask themselves who they would like sitting in front of the next CEO who is thinking of bringing his or her business to Orlando. Segal claims his opponents are not
People
businessmen or women and will not know how to evaluate the components of a business or manage a business the way he can. Segal states confidently: “We need the next big job creator and that’s me.” With more jobs come more opportunities for families to stay in Orlando and not travel to a more ‘cosmopolitan’ area. One way Segal believes Orlando can transform and be competitive with the Miami and Atlanta markets is the SunRail, a commuter rail that will eventually run from Deland to Poincianna connecting Central Florida and making it easier to commute. The creative class, as Segal likes to call the men and women in their mid twenties, want to live in an urban area where they can hop onto the SunRail to go to work or downtown…or both. On the topic of crime, Segal shares that crime is down and is concentrated within four areas of the county. He wants to make sure that the deputy budget is not cut and either increases or at least is maintained. One way he feels this can be achieved is to raise the booking fees at a jail from $5 to $50 and to charge $2.50 in the jail instead of $1.50 for per diem, which essentially goes towards food purchases. This would create approximately $4 million more dollars for the law enforcement’s budget. He pinpointed Pine Hills and Paramore as areas needing the most attention but believes the picture is bright. When asked about his feelings on Amendment 4 – Hometown Democracy, it was clear which way he was siding. Against it.
Amendment 4 is a ‘proposed citizen amendment’ to the Florida Constitution that allows the city’s citizens the right to vote on the local comprehensive plan, which focuses on land-use such as whether or not a new subdivision will be built. The idea behind the amendment is that instead of politicians and boardmembers having the final say as to what will be built, they will now have public involvement. While some of Segal’s opponents support the change and believe the residents should have a voice, Segal says, “I’m against it. It’s going to be a job hurdle. Businesses looking to come to Orlando to expand are not going to want to go through the hoops and hurdles of Amendment 4 and they will go to Georgia, the Carolina’s, or Alabama. It is ill conceived and a miserable idea.” Segal works to be a good person, family man and hopes to be a good mayor to Orange County. He believes he is the best leader for the job and one of the only candidates who will work closely with the mayor of the city and the other counties. “You can’t be a loner and be a good leader,” Segal says when referring to one of his opponents who he suggests doesn’t play nice with others. When working with the city government, everyone must meet half way and he feels he is the best for that job. His public service record is astounding, serving as the founding director for the Coalition for the Homeless, former member and chairman of the St. Johns River Water Management District and as a member of countless other services in his hometown.
::
In the coming months before the August 24th primary, Segal will continue to walk neighborhoods, connect with volunteers, continue raising funds for television, radio, and other advertisements for the fall campaign and to continue staying in front of issues, especially law enforcement, which he says is “near and dear to my heart.” The trend setting Orlando Style already knew 7 years ago that the new and improved Orlando would be the next hot cosmopolitan city and Segal agrees that our name says it all.

Jewels Addiction By: Cathleen K. Bode Read more at: StyleToMe.com
Burma, copper amulet on sterling chain; $225. Burma, 19th c. Buddhist Copper charm on sterling chain personal amulet. The twisted copper to bring peace and harmony among monks.

> Marrakech, Morocco–People who know about Jewels’ one-of-a-kind designs call themselves “addicts”... and with good reason. There’s just something about Jewels’ necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings that automatically transport the wearer to an exotic place and time. Her masterful style of hand weaving fine antique tribal elements–amber, coral, shells, turquoise, gold, North African silver, coins, talismans, trade objects– into hip and sophisticated wearable works of art. Spending her time between Santa Fe, New Mexico and Marrakech where she opened a design studio just over one year ago (not to mention her various excursions to North and West Africa, South America, S.E. Asia, Indonesia, Tibet, China, India, Afghanistan and Yemen collecting jewelry-worthy artifacts), Jewels has been creating masterpieces for more than 25 years. Her following is more of a cult phenomenon. Historically, she’s been known to set up trunk shows for her small bohemian enterprise at swanky hotels in Los Angeles and New York where clients just came out of the woodwork to purchase her wares...east and west coast elite, intellectuals, fine art collectors, young entrepreneurs. Even celebrities such as Sheryl Crow, Orlando Bloom, Candice Bergen, Ali MacGraw, Patricia Arquette and Adrien Brody have been enamored with the beautiful, rare and extraordinary power of Jewels’ designs. That power is in her imaginative use of tribal elements (many of which are 100 years old and older). About Jewels, the designer The daughter of an Air Force pilot, Jewels spent her formative years growing up in Tripoli. She traveled extensively with her family from Tunis to Tangiers and recalls endless wanderings through exotic market souks
> Rankin knows what he's talking about. A former probation officer, family and addiction counselor, and television host who holds an advanced degree in psychology, Rankin worked the graveyard shift as a doorman at the 5,000-room MGM Grand hotel for six years. A memoir of sorts, his book tells the true story of this turbulent period in his life.

The sheer excitement draws you in. If you've ever been to Vegas, you know that it is, quite simply, intense. The colors are vivid, sounds constantly bombard you, and you're always surrounded by a diverse mass of people. You might be sitting near a group of beautiful women having a "ladies' night" out on the town, or you might be mingling with a celebrity at a bar.The level of excitement is always very high. It's impossible to be bored in the midst of all of the spectacle and pageantry, and The Best is right at your fingertips: the best restaurants, the best shows, the best parties. "The primary allure of Vegas is that there are no boundaries," Rankin says. "There is no clock, no last call, no line in the sand. You can do what you want, whenever you want, with whom you want. You're free to stay out all night and bet it all. Your fantasies are right in front of you...and when you can indulge in them without repercussions, it's almost impossible to

with her mother. Struck by the beauty of the coral, amber, silver and gold – all the wealth of North African families – she says, “I was hooked.” After her education in Europe, Jewels spent many years traveling, living in India, South America and again in North Africa expanding her education of jewelry design and knowledge of cultural artifacts...and always collecting. Through the opening of her Marrakech design studio last year, not only is Jewels finally able to present her designs to a broader audience, she has opened up opportunities for young, educated women who otherwise have limited work and benefit options living in Morocco to become skilled silversmiths and bead weavers. Coming out of this studio is some of her greatest work yet. Items can be purchased by calling: 877-988-1310 and/or emailing to: Jewelsart@earthlink.net <

say no. Vegas has been designed that way for a reason, and it's true—what happens in Vegas really does stay there. Unfortunately, the consequences of indulging in your wildest desires stick around long after the thrill is gone.” That "casino cachet" is calculated—right down to the carpet color. Nothing about a casino—its layout, its color scheme, its music, the placement of its staff—is left to chance. The patterned carpets, alluring noises, and lighting are designed to keep the senses stimulated. And heaven forbid that "unlucky number 13" makes an appearance! You won't find it anywhere—not on room numbers, and certainly not a 13th floor. <

A man will only truly cave over three things: his love, his child and his dog. When those great big eyes look up at you from below, you can’t help but give him a hug or pat on the head. Dogs don’t complicate things with fancy meals or designer sweaters. They’re content just to sit beside you on the couch or on the floor. They want to walk or run with you in the great outdoors. A dog can keep a man alive, giving him purpose and responsibility, as well as love and affection.
A Man & His Dog By: Alicia Satchfield Read more at: StyleToMe.com
> Mankind today has become more in tune with technology and money than human emotion; but there is one creature that has and always will be a connection to the better part of man: his dog. A dog may not be able to make a sandwich or pay the bills, but when a man wakes up and his dog greets him, he doesn’t care. Men need someone in their life who understands them completely. A dog won’t judge. They may not know why you’re upset, but it’s a guarantee that they will sense your pain or joy, and ride it out with you the whole way.

Men often see themselves as natural providers and protectors.This sense of loyalty and strength is shared with their dog, an animal that will do anything for those that love and care for him. Dogs will bravely chase any number of smaller creatures (and foolishly chase any number of much larger creatures) to prove his loyalty to his master. It isn’t hard to imagine a dog circling the back yard over and over again just waiting for one of those squirrels to set one paw on the bird feeder. Every entertaining and touching thing your dog does will only strengthen the bond you share.
