The saying is trustworthy, for: If we have died with him, we will also live with him; if we endure, we will also reign with him; if we deny him, he also will deny us; if we are faithless, he remains faithful— for he cannot deny himself. 2 Timothy 2:11-13

Boca Raton, FL — Serving up much celebration and accolades to recognize Boca Raton’s finest healthcare providers, the Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton (RCDBR) will be pulling out all the stops for the “Honor Your Doctor” 25th Anniversary Luncheon (HYDL). The silver anniversary event will be held the day before National Doctors Day on Wednesday, March 29 beginning at 11:15 a.m. at Boca West Country Club.
Boca Raton, FL —You could hear a pin drop as Lorenzo Lamas, guest speaker at the Friday lunch meeting for the Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton recently shared heartwarming and entertaining stories about growing up as the son of famous MGM Hollywood Icons, Arlene Dahl, Fernando Lamas and stepmom Esther Williams.
Lorenzo spoke about growing up in New York after his parents were divorced and had wonderful and heartwarming stories about his mom, dad and stepmom and the “Hollywood system” that they were part of and how he made the decision with his Dad to choose to be an actor as well. Lorenzo Lamas career was launched with a role in the film “Grease,” and his role as Lance Crumson, grandson of Angela Channing played by Jane Wyman in the long running ‘90’s primetime soap opera “Falcon Crest”. Lamas received a Golden Globe nomination for Best Supporting Actor-Series, Miniseries or Television Film.
Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton member Francesca Daniels who was a friend of Fernando Lamas and Esther Williams for more than 25 years living in Beverly Hills has known Lorenzo since he was nine years old and invited him and his fiancé Kenna Scott whom he met on Francesca’s Facebook page to the club meeting.
“We frequently have great speakers at the Rotary Club Downtown Boca; however, this was like watching Lorenzo on a segment of Hollywood tonight or Oprah Winfrey! And, Lorenzo is my very handsome Godson! I am so pleased to have him visit our club in Boca and share his wonderful life and stories.”
“Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton has a history of providing compelling and entertaining speakers at our weekly meetings which is a perfect complement to our mission of service to the community. Lorenzo’s presentation also focused on his positive attitude and spirit of giv-
ing which matches perfectly with what we are all about,” said president Jeff Weber.
Founded in July 2012 to support the health and wellness needs of its community, The Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton celebrating its 10th year is dedicated to impacting the Boca Raton community through Rotary International’s mission of “Service Above Self.” The award-winning 501(c)4 nonprofit that also presents the Annual Boca Raton Mayors Ballis dedicated to making a difference in its community by enhancing the lives of many in an environment that embraces and promotes integrity, fellowship, and trust.

Co-chaired by Alan Kaye and Janice Williams with Honorary Chair Christine E. Lynn and last year’s Doctor of Distinction Dr. Phillip Oranburg as Honorary Physician Advisor, the funds raised annually underwrite medical and nursing school scholarships for eligible students enrolled in the Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine at Florida Atlantic University, Christine E. Lynn College of Nursing at Florida Atlantic University, Lynn University, and Palm Beach State College.
“As our community grows, our healthcare needs do as well, and thus it is important to shine a bright light and honor those who continue raise the bar on healthcare excellence while at the same time support the next generation of physicians, nurses and med techs who are readying to continue the highest standard patient-focused legacy,” shared HYDL Co-Chair Janice Williams.
Annual funds from HYDL that was founded by Helen M. Babione and the Boca Raton Woman’s Club 25 years ago are primarily raised in four ways:
luncheon corporate and philanthropist sponsorships
ticket sales
nominations made by patients and staff who make a donation to vote for their favorite doctors, nurses, and medical professionals who will attend the luncheon as honored guests of the Rotary Club.

There are people who are so limited only to their own ideas, that they never consider other points of view, nor other reasonable possibilities of solving a problem, beyond what they alone accept to be the only possible solution.
True achievers, however, never confine themselves in this manner. From the start they realize that if plan A doesn’t work, let’s look at other alternatives before giving up their attempts of creating something good, or applying a new methodology or technology to what is being tested!
The insecure individual, who operates with tunnel vision, prefers to
argue, to complain, to discredit, and to do countless more inconsequential things, instead of considering suggested alternatives while there is yet time to accomplish what can bring the desired results.
Through the years I’ve come to recognize that there can be multiple answers to one single question without any reply contradicting the other. A viewpoint depends on the angle though which a person is observing a situation, even if several other persons are attempting the same from the perspective through which they analyze what they contemplate. Most often, it’s through the contribution of
several that a proper conclusion is best reached, on account of the varied perspectives that construct the fuller picture!
Some people, insisting on their single, chosen way of doing things, can spend countless hours, or even days without success, and still dismiss other suggestions to what can be a better way – indeed the most decisive manner of leading that task into the desired resolution!
I’m convinced that many times it’s personal pride that blocks one’s pathway to genuine accomplishment; it’s a person’s insistence in pursuing a road already travelled without ever leading
By: Rick BoxxLast week we started to explore biblical principles for starting a business. In this edition of “Monday Manna,” we will look at three additional principles. The fourth principle I would suggest is, “What will you provide customers that no one else provides?”
A friend was describing for me how he viewed his niche in providing retirement plans for Christian organizations. His firm has specialized in developing investment options for their clients that screen out investment opportunities that are not in alignment with biblical values. He took a product that many companies need and added to it biblically responsible investing options many Christians would prefer.
Romans 12:6 teaches, “Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exer-
cise them accordingly.”Just as God has given you unique gifts, He also has a unique plan for your business. Determine those gifts and use them to carve out a niche for your business.
When I was a banker, I met with hundreds of entrepreneurs. It was not uncommon when I asked how much they needed to fund their new business, to hear, “How much will you give me?” This usually meant they ether had no plan or had not taken the time necessary to fully formulate a business plan.
Kent, however, was different. He knew exactly how much it was going to cost to build his manufacturing business, when he was going to hire staff, and how much he wanted to borrow. His plan gave me, as his lender, confidence that he might succeed – and he did.
Proverbs 21:5 teaches, “The plans
of the diligent lead surely to advantage, but everyone who is hasty comes surely to poverty.” This leads to principle #5: If you’re starting a new business, develop a plan that answers the question, “How will you fund, staff, build and maintain your idea?”
In my experience, patience does not seem to be a virtue for many aspiring entrepreneurs. Once they have an idea for launching a new business, they often want to start today, even though they have not considered the optimal timing or starting their enterprise and have not yet arranged for the necessary funding to see it through to profitability.
Sometimes God gives us an idea in advance so that we can save and prepare for the future launch. When we attempt to shortcut this process, it usually results in an underfunded business

to the sought destination.
Sadly, some individuals become defensive when their suggestion is rejected and their way is not attempted. They label the detractors with many uncomplimentary classifications, considering defiance as the primary attitude being shown by the true visionaries.
Yet, such is hardly the case because no one is limited to just one way of doing things, nor one single manner of addressing any situation. Issues need to be understood from the inside out, as well as from top to bottom. Those who limit their observation will never attain a satisfactory understanding, if any at all!
or settling for a less than desirable location. Lamentations 3:25 affirms the wisdom of patiently waiting on God, both for His perfect timing and His sufficient provision. It teaches, “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the person who seeks Him.”
When starting a new business, follow principle #6 by being prepared to answer the question, “When and where will this take place?” Be careful not to get ahead of God in the process. This will enable you to avoid considerable risk – for yourself and for your business startup.

There is a tendency, when circumstances become especially challenging, for many of us to reason that the outcome is solely dependent on us. As one motivational speaker used to say, “If it’s to be, it’s up to me!” However, unless you are an entrepreneur and the only employee in your company, there will always be others involved in the successes – and failures –of your organization. Everyone, from the receptionist to the salespeople to the janitor to the CEO, contributes to the ultimate result.
I remember my days as a magazine editor for CBMC. I was the primary writer, but we also had people contributing columns on various topics. I had an associate editor and editorial assistant. We had a graphic designer and illustrators who worked to make our publication visually compelling. Then there were the people at the publishing company who did the work of getting the magazine into printed form.
Each time we received a freshly printed, new edition of the magazine, I would come to the same conclusion: The whole (product) was greater than the sum of the parts. This process, utilizing the gifts, talents and experience of each person involved, reminded me of a statement in 1 Corinthians 12:12-26.
The context is referring to the Church, the “body of Christ” as the Bible expresses it. But in principle it also can apply to any workplace setting. The entire passage is well worth reading and pondering, but here are some excerpts from it:
“The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ…. But in fact God has arranged the
parts of the body, every one of them, just as she wanted them to be. If they were all one part, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, but one body….”
These verses also refer to the parts of the body that do not get as much attention as others. When we look at someone, whether their physical appearance or the work they perform, we tend to favor those who are most attractive or produce the greatest results. However, the passage reminds us:
“The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I don’t need you!’ And the head cannot say to the feet, ‘I don’t need you!’ On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor…. But God has combined the members of the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.”
Another passage in the Scriptures speaks to the importance of relying on one another rather than thinking we can accomplish all the work on our own. Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 states:
“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work. If one falls, his friend can help him up. But pity the person who falls and has no one to help him up! Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”
The next time you experience a significant accomplishment at work, remember all who helped to make it possible.

Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most common birth defects and doctors and affected families can help ensure that individuals with CHDs receive lifelong congenital cardiac care to stay healthy. In 2010, it was estimated that approximately 1 million children and 1.4 million adults were living with a CHD in the United States. However, about 60% of individuals with CHDs don’t see a congenital cardiology specialist after age 18 for follow-up.
Congenital cardiology care is essential, even for those who are not currently experiencing symptoms. In addition to the need to manage the CHD, affected individuals remain at risk for developing acquired cardiac conditions of adulthood. These include a range of potentially serious conditions such as arrhythmias, atherosclerotic heart disease, congestive heart failure, endocarditis, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and pulmonary hypertension.
According to advocates, a primary care physician is often the only doctor a patient sees, making it critical that patients disclose their CHD to their their doctors, and for doctors to help ensure they get the specialized care they need to stay healthy and safe over the years.
“Although most individuals with CHDs require lifelong congenital cardiac care, many children and adults experience gaps in care for several years or more,” says Dr. Sherry Farr from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“Whether these lapses are due to loss of insurance, financial barriers or an inaccurate belief that their heart defect has ‘been cured,’ physicians that these patients see for other reasons can facilitate continuity of cardiac care.”
February is the month of love and one of the most popular times of year for couples to get engaged. According to a recent study, 36% of respondents said Valentine’s Day is the most romantic day to propose. If you’re about to get married or just walked down the aisle, here are five things to do to ensure your financial health.
1. Determine how you will handle finances. They say money can’t buy love and happiness, but talking about it in a marriage, or even beforehand, goes a long way. You’ll want to discuss whether you’ll have a joint bank account and credit cards, separate accounts or a combination of the two. It’s a personal decision, so consider the pros and cons. It’s also a good idea to know the roles you will play. For example, will you or your partner pay the day-to-day bills? The other person may want to manage the monthly mortgage and auto expenses, or even the long-term investments and retirement funds. If you need help coming up with a plan, you may want to seek the advice of a financial counselor.
2. Get life insurance. You may not realize that February is also Insure Your Love Month, a time to think about protecting your loved ones if something unfortunate should happen. “If you have people who depend on you – including your new spouse – chances are you need life insurance,” said
Lou Colaizzo, senior vice president, Erie Family Life. “While it’s hard to think about the possibility of not being there for a loved one, it’s so important to plan for.” Colaizzo added that some people may hesitate to seek out life insurance because they don’t want to go through the trouble of getting a medical exam, but that’s not always necessary. For example, Erie Insurance has a policy called ERIExpress Life, which may be able to provide protection with a simple application process and no physical med-
ical exam. Colaizzo recommends people consult with their insurance agent to find the right life insurance policy and coverage amount that’s best for them.
3. Protect your bling. Chances are you spent a lot of time and money picking out rings you’ll love and wear every day. Unfortunately, burglaries are more common than you may think. According to the FBI, there were more than 1.1 million burglaries in 2019. Protect your wedding jewelry, and any other expensive jewelry, by adding
Dr. Farr suggests that physicians start the conversation with patients by asking them if they ever had heart problems. After learning that a patient has a heart defect, they should then emphasize the need for continuous care, even in cases where patients feel well. Doctors should be prepared to both explain the vital role of congenital cardiologists and provide a referral for a specialist in the area. Patients with CHDs should share their health history at their appointment and be ready to ask questions and seek referrals.
The new CHD Awareness Toolkit from the American Academy of Pediatrics and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offers resources to help physicians connect people with heart defects to the care they need. It includes materials for pediatricians and family physicians (who treat children), internal medicine physicians and family physicians (who treat adults), obstetrician-gynecologists and emergency room physicians. To learn more or to download the toolkit, visit aap.org/CHDcare.
People with heart defects need lifelong congenital cardiac care. By getting the conversation started, patients and physicians can help ensure continuity of care.
these items to your homeowners or renters policy. It is advisable to have photos and documentation of the value of the ring and other valuable jewelry in the event of a theft or a loss.
4. Update your car insurance. Notify your agent to make sure you’re both covered to drive each other’s cars. You may also be eligible for savings, such as a multicar discount or bundling your car insurance with homeowners and/or life insurance. Additionally, some insurance companies offer a lower rate for married couples.
5. Make updates to your records if you change your last name. It’s a big decision and takes a lot of work if one of you decides to change your name after marriage. It’s important to be patient and diligent as the entire process may take several months. Remember to update all the appropriate forms, including a new Social Security card, driver’s license, passport, bank accounts and credit cards, among other considerations. Additionally, notify your employer for payroll and health insurance coverage updates.
Getting married is an exciting, big life event. While you and your partner start your new life together, have an open conversation about financial considerations and double check to make sure you’re covered to protect the life you’re building.

PBSC has received a $950,000 Basic Needs for Postsecondary Students Program grant from the U.S. Department of Education to expand its Student Counseling Center staff and increase and strengthen partnerships with community agencies and organizations to boost services for students. With an enhanced and streamlined needs assessments and case management framework, the College hopes to better serve students and help them overcome personal barriers to completing their education.
“We are thrilled to receive this grant,’’ said Robin Russo, a licensed clinical social worker and PBSC’s director of student well-being. “This will be a gamechanger for many students who are committed to their education but need extra support to get to the finish line.”
Through the three-year grant, PBSC will hire two additional full-time
licensed mental health professionals and a Panther’s Pantry coordinator. It also will launch a student peer mentoring program and offer workshops for students, faculty and staff on mental health issues and community resources.
“We’re building a coalition with community resources so that we can make referrals and utilize community agencies to help students. With the additional staffing we will be able to do more for our students,’’ said Dr. Kathy Karran-McCoy, dean of student develop-

The funding, which was recently announced by U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona, is among 38 awards totaling more than $30 million going to colleges and universities around the nation from five competitive grant programs of the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education
(FIPSE). FIPSE aims to improve higher education opportunities and outcomes for students from underrepresented communities.
In addition to the Basic Needs for Postsecondary Students Program, the other grant programs are Postsecondary Student Success Program, Open Textbooks Pilot Program, Centers of Excellence for Veteran Student Success and Transitioning Gang-Involved Youth to Higher Education Program.

Palm Beach State is among 14 institutions awarded the Basic Needs for Postsecondary Students Program, including three in Florida.
Since 2021, the Counseling Center has received 13, 677 request for services. The request includes 1,045 counseling/case management appointments and 228 fund requests filed through The Foundation for Palm Beach State College’s Student Emergency Assistance Fund, which supports the work of the Counseling Center in assisting students.

A female Shih Tzu dog, apparently abandoned and left to die on a sidewalk off Yamato Road in Boca Raton for an unknown period, is fighting for its life at Tri County Animal Rescue.
The horribly injured animal who was literally stuck to the ground in accumulated feces, was found by passersby on Saturday, Jan. 21, said Suzi Goldsmith, executive director and co-founder of the Boca-based animal care, rescue and adoption service.
“This could not have happened overnight,” she said in a Facebook post. “How long was it going on? How long does she have? Did she get to us in time?”
Goldsmith said Tri County staff have named the small animal “Trooper,” and she is about eight years old. A photo posted on the TCAR Facebook page Thursday showed the animal being held and apparently smiling, an indication that the dog’s health may be improving.
How, Trooper’s situation is dire. “After hours of grooming, Keto shampoo baths and because of urine and fecal burns, tests, more tests and even more tests,” the dog was found to have 22 medical conditions, including paralysis, a heart murmur, corneal ulcers, worms, severe periodontal disease, ear infections and a urinary tract infection.
The TCAR executive director said she is certain the dog had been used by someone for breeding and was discarded when she could no longer produce puppies. She said the dog either escaped from a cage or was simply tossed onto the sidewalk and left to die.
The incident is similar one that occurred at TCAR last June when some-
one threw a horribly neglected dog, also a Shih Tzu, over the fence of the rescue society’s headquarters on Boca Rio Road just west of Florida’s Turnpike in Boca Raton.
A press release issued at the time by the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said a volunteer found the approximately 6-year-old Shih Tzu along the fence line of the Tri-County Animal Rescue, near a dumpster. Deputies said since the facility is gated and locked, it appeared someone threw the dog, which veterinary staff named ‘Parker,’ over the fence.”
The news release said Parker “could barely stand, let alone walk.” It was covered in matted hair and maggots, much like Trooper.
The Tri County staff was able to save Parker’s life, and she was eventually adopted. However, she died four months later, the result of the injuries she had suffered by her abusive owner who has not yet been located or charged.
Goldsmith told the Boca Raton Tribune that the incidents involving Parker and Trooper “are the worst I have ever seen” since she has been involved in animal care and rescue.
She said law enforcement continues to investigate.
TCAR officials are calling on the public to help by donating to help pay for Trooper’s care. Those wishing to assist can contact Tri County at 561-4828110; make a donation through PayPal or send a check to: Tri County Animal Rescue, 21287 Boca Rio Road, Boca Raton, FL 33433.“Friends, Trooper needs your help,” said Goldsmith. “She has his guardian angel in Parker, but she needs a hero in you. She needs a team of heroes.”
The local women of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc., Xi Pi Omega Chapter are celebrating 40 years of service with a special exhibition at the Spady Museum. The exhibit will be on display through February 17, 2023.
Founded on January 15, 1906, at Howard University in Washington, D.C., Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. is the first of the four sororities designed to meet the civic, philanthropic and cultural needs of Black coeds. Starting in 1930, four sororities and five fraternities eventually came together under the umbrella of the National Pan-Hellenic Council and later began to be referred to as “The Divine 9.” Leading “by culture and by merit,” Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. members are leaders in Palm Beach County, having a presence in every facet of the community.
The Spady Museum’s exhibition will feature the history of the national organization and the members of the local chapter and highlight their community service work in Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Boynton Beach. The exhibition will close with the celebration of their 40th chapter anniversary at Benvento in Boynton Beach.

February 17, 2023: FREE Black Youth Awareness Art Festival
The energy of the first Black Youth Awareness Art Festival spilled out into the streets of West Settlers’ Historic District, as the Spady Museum and Milagro Center welcomed more than 300 new and old friends to the Black History Month event. In 2023, the Spady Museum plans for a repeat performance, this time in partnership with CAPE Universal. At the festival, young people took to the stage with music, poetry/spoken word and dance, while youth chatted with customers. Artwork created by local youth lined the outdoor venue, which provided a lively backdrop for young, small business owners selling their wares. Delray Beach Police officers handed out ice cream and Digital Vibes kept
In an effort to celebrate and promote black cultural awareness, three of the most respected nonprofit organizations in Delray Beach are again collaborating to present Authors Speak Series 2023, according to Charlene Farrington, Executive Director of Spady Cultural Heritage Museum; Marjorie Waldo, President & CEO of Arts Garage; and Renee Jadusingh, Executive Director of the Community Redevelopment Agency of Delray Beach.
The timely topic of this “free to see” series is The Impact of Race on American Society, offering “interesting and enlightening conversations with three writers who have cultivated a perspective on black cultural awareness through their research and personal experiences.
Dr. Jasmine Cobb: New Growth: The Art & Texture of Black Hair
Dr. Cobb is Professor of African & African American Studies and of Art, Art History and Visual Studies at Duke University, as well as a co-director of the “From Slavery to Freedom” (FS2F) Franklin Humanities Lab. A scholar of black cultural production and visual representation, her book New Growth: The Art & Texture of Black Hair traces the history of Afro-textured coiffure, exploring it as a visual material through which to reimagine the sensual experience of Blackness. Through close readings of slave narratives, scrapbooks, travel illustration, documentary film and photography, as well as collage, craft, and sculpture, from the nineteenth century to the present, she shows how the radical distinctions ascribed to people of African descent become simultaneously visible and tactile. Whether examining Soul Train’s and Ebony’s promotion of the Afro hair style alongside cosmetics or how artists, such as Alison Saar and Lorna Simpson, underscore the construction of Blackness through the representation of hair, Cobb reveals the various ways that people of African descent forge new relationships to the body, public space, and visual culture through the embrace of Black hair.

The University Galleries in Florida Atlantic University’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters presents the sixth edition of “SouthXeast: Contemporary Art Triennial” through Saturday, March 4 in the Ritter Art Gallery and through Saturday, March 11 in the Schmidt Center Gallery and Public Space, 777 Glades Road on the Boca Raton campus.
An opening reception, including hors d’oeuvres and drinks, took place Jan. 27.
The “SouthXeast: Contemporary Art Triennial” follows a legacy initiated by retired director Rod Faulds at FAU in 2005.
Curated by Véronique Côté, this year’s display of regional talent is created through the team efforts of FAU student workers and recent graduates. As a professional training ground for future museum
professionals, this year’s production highlights an impressive roster of 30 artists selected through referrals from various regional institutions across the southeastern United States.
A sense of longing for home, reconciliation with an alienating past and connection with nature permeates this exhibition. The Americana aesthetic brought about by recycled materials and found objects paired with surreal, constructed fl ora and fauna form a striking visual of this generation’s concerns for ancestral healing and ecological stewardship.
Through an almost manic impulse for assemblage, these artists yearn to heal from a traumatic past, connect with deeper values, and honor their elders while building a hopeful future. They create contemporary totems asking a timeless question: is it just me?
FAU University Galleries is open Tuesday through Friday from 1 to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 1 to 5 p.m. School and group tours can be scheduled by appointment by contacting Helen Edmunds at UGMuseumEd@fau.edu.
The Schmidt Center Gallery is located in the Performing Arts building (Building 51), near the Living Room Theaters. Daytime visitors must obtain a temporary one-day parking pass online for $5 at http://parking.fau.edu to park in Parking Garage 2 for Schmidt Center Gallery. Metered parking in the
lot just north of the entrance to Parking Garage 2 is available via the ParkMobile app with credit or debit card payment.
The 2022-23 University Galleries exhibitions and programs are supported by the Isadore and Kelly Friedman University Galleries Fund and sponsored in part by the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Arts and Culture, the Florida Council on Arts and Culture and the National Endowment for the Arts. Museum education programs are made possible by the Kaye Arts Integration Endowment.

As Girl Scout Cookie season is approaching, several representatives who work at the Boca Raton, Naples and Weston Hooters locations and the corporate office participated in the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida Smart Cookie workshop to give the next generation of young female entrepreneurs tips on selling Girl Scout Cookies. The goal is to teach the scouts how to be a better salesperson.
All four of the South Florida Hooters employees participating Ansley Santos (Boca Raton), Heather Widle (Weston), Taylor Zalich (Naples) and Kristi Quarles (Corporate Office) were Girl Scouts when they were kids.
“I was a Girl Scout for almost four years during 1st through 4th grade. For me, being a Girl Scout was so formative, adventurous and most of all empowering. It is what showed me how to stay true to myself, make the most of every moment, and support other women. I still talk to a couple of the girls from my troop to this day. Fast-forward to now; having this opportunity as a Hooters Girl to help the girls of southeast Florida embodies the girl-scout-spirit is very sentimental for me. I couldn’t be more thankful towards Hooters to be presented with this experience, as I feel that they are always looking to take action in order to be a part of something positive and impactful. I cannot wait for the girls to come sell cookies at the Hooters of Boca Raton, you can find me buying at least 10 boxes,” said Boca Raton Hooters Girl Ansley Santos.
“Attending Camp Sacagawea in New Jersey was the highlight of my summers growing up. Not only did I have the opportunity to do fun activities with friends, like horseback riding and archery, but my memories of camp go deeper than just lifelong friends, and engraved skills that have shaped who I am today. With the support of the Girl Scout community I learned leadership, confidence, communication and preparedness. But what I loved most was the strong presence of females within the community and how
supportive my leaders and fellow peers were of one another. Now as a Hooters Girl, the community consists of amazing, empowering women that encourage the success of one another. It was an honor to represent Hooters at the Smart Cookie Program for Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida to encourage our future female leaders to grow confidence and chase their dreams,” said Naples Hooters Girl Taylor Zalich.
“Being a Girl Scout has made me well rounded and helped mold me into the woman I am today. I’ve gained sisters and life skills that I’ll never forget through being a Girl Scout. I’m super proud now that Hooters is partnering with Girl Scouts by matching the cookies sold for the military and allowing the girls to sell cookies in front of our South Florida Hooters locations. We have also attended recent events including the Smart Cookie Workshop. It is very uplifting and motivational because the Girl Scouts are all about women empowering other women and they show girls that they can do and be anything. After attending these events with the Girl Scouts I’m strongly considering having my own Troop in the future,” said Weston Hooters Girl Heather Widle.
For the third year in a row, the South Florida Hooters locations are partnering with the Girl Scouts to help with their annual fundraising efforts. The Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida will have cookie booths at the Boca Raton, Cypress Creek, Fort Lauderdale Beach Place, Pembroke Pines, Sunrise and Weston Hooters locations from February 3 through February 5.
“We enjoyed sharing sales tips with the next generation of young female entrepreneurs. We are proud to partner with the Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida for events throughout the year and have their cookie booths at our restaurants to help them reach more people in our community,” said LTP Director of Marketing Kristi Quarles. Quarles spent eight years in the Girl Scouts.
The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum hosted its “WhatYou Do Matters 30th Anniversary South Florida Dinner on January 24th at Boca West Country Club Raising nearly $1.5 million, a record for this event. More than 600 guests attended the sold-out event chaired by Vero Beach resident Marilyn Wallach including over three dozen Holocaust survivors, along with dignitaries, community leaders, philanthropists, educators, and students.
Delray Beach resident Julie Peyton, national patron and regional ambassador for the Museum, received the Museum’s National Leadership Award in recognition of her indelible mark in educating and building national and global understanding of the atrocities of the Holocaust and other genocides. In addition to attending Museum events across the country and every Days of Remembrance event at the Museum for the last decade, Julie participated in the Museum’s 2019 delegation to Rwanda and 2022 delegation to Argentina to learn first-hand about the genocides and lesser-known atrocities that occurred in those countries.
“I’m involved with the Museum because of what it represents,” stated Julie Peyton in her award acceptance remarks. “Through its vast educational initiatives, it teaches about the dangers of unchecked hatred and the power of individuals. And through the tremendous work of the Museum’s Simon-Skodjt Center for the Prevention of Genocide, it teaches that the crime of genocide does not discriminate –even though genocide is about dis -
crimination, these crimes can happen to anyone. And right now, there are genocides and crimes against humanity happening all around the world.”
With a sharp focus on genocide prevention, CNN Senior Legal Analyst Elie Honig moderated a discussion at the dinner entitled Fleeing Atrocities: Witness Perspectives. The panel featured two witnesses of genocide and mass atrocities nearly 80 years apart: Holocaust survivor Louise Lawrence-Israëls and Rohingya genocide in Burma witness Wai Wai Nu, along with Naomi Kikoler, director of the Museum’s Simon-Skjodt Center for the Prevention of Genocide.
“The Museum is a constant reminder that although the world always changes, human nature never does,” stated Robert Tanen, director of the Museum’s Southeast region. “Social media has enabled outrageously explicit expressions of antisemitism to become a daily occurrence. Whether from politicians, athletes, entertainers, the media, or other people of influence – antisemitic rhetoric continues to increase in its frequency, visibility, and intensity. We are seeing it right here in our community, our home ground. A swastika projected on a building. Antisemitic flyers on cars and yards. White supremacists invading college campuses.”
“There is only one antidote for this kind of hatred: education,” continued Tanen. “And educating is what the Museum is uniquely qualified to do, and must do, over the next 30 years. We will protect truth, unlock the power of Holocaust history, and ensure its relevance to new generations.”

The Florida Atlantic University men’s basketball team is in the midst of a historic 2022-23 campaign. The Owls enter a big Conference USA clash at UAB riding a 20-game winning streak – which is the longest in the nation and tied for third-longest in conference history. FAU has risen all the way to No. 19 in the AP poll and No. 20 in the USA Today Coaches poll, which are both the highest mark in school history. One more Owl win will set the FAU record for the most in a single season at 22.
FAU and UAB met in Boca Raton exactly four weeks ago, when the Owls pulled out an 88-86 victory. Johnell Davis went off for the Owls, scoring a career-high 36 points off the bench on 11-of-17 shooting from the floor, 4-of-6 shooting from 3-point range and 10-of-11 from the free throw line. Davis closed out the win for FAU, scoring the final 10 points for the Owls over the last 2:43. Davis’ 36 points doubled his previous career-high and are only three shy of the FAU single-game record. Davis is leading FAU in scoring with 13.2 points per game, and that number increases to 16.6 per game in C-USA action, which is also a teamhigh.
The Owls are one of only two one-loss teams (Purdue being the other) in the nation, and those two squads are tied for the top record in Division I. FAU is also an undefeated 11-0 in conference play, as they are one of only six teams left who
The Owls’ success this season has propelled them to the nation’s top in several statistical categories, led by the No. 1 ranking in bench points with an impressive 38.1 points per game
FAU is also ranked No. 11 in the nation in scoring margin (+13.9 ppg.), No. 13 in defensive rebounds per game (28.5), No. 14 in made 3-pointers per game (9.8), No. 17 in rebounding margin (+6.6), and No. 27 in field goal percentage defense (40%)
In the win over the Hilltoppers on Saturday, the Owls were hot from beyond the arc on their way to 13 3-pointers, which is one shy of their season-high of 14 (vs. Florida Gulf Coast, 12/7)
Brandon Weatherspoon and Nick Boyd led with three 3-pointers each, while Bryan Greenlee, Davis and Michael Forrest knocked in two each. On the flip side, WKU only went 2-of-13 (15.3%) from the 3-point line
Davis has led the Owls in scoring in six out of the last nine games, all which have been Conference USA contests. His average of 16.6 points per game in C-USA action ranks sixth in the league
Davis has reached double figures in 13 games this season, and he has also recorded two double-doubles (Florida, 11/14, FIU, 12/17) Davis is ranked second on the team in rebounding with an average of 5.2 boards per game.
The Palm Beach Atlantic men’s basketball team returned to the floor on Wednesday night, facing Nova Southeastern Sharks.
The Sailfish (10-10, 6-8 SSC) kept the high-powered offense of the Sharks at bay for the first eight minutes, but NSU (21-0, 14-0 SSC) eventually wore down PBA. The defending South Region champions went on a 19-0 run in the first half to take a 2814 lead and never looked back. The Sharks won the game, 96-66.
Will Lee led PBA with 18 points and eight rebounds. Reigning SSC Player of the Week Jalen Cooper tallied 12 points and four rebounds. Jakob Hester totaled 10 points and nine rebounds with one steal. Ryan Claflin added nine points and one block.
The trio of Claflin, Cooper, and
Lee helped PBA build a 14-9 lead early in the game. The Sailfish did a good job of making NSU’s full-court defense pay. Some turnovers and missed shots allowed NSU to gain some momentum. The Sharks hit PBA with a plethora of 3-pointers in the first half, making 8-of-13 attempts in the first period. NSU led 55-35 at halftime.
Lee scored 10 of 18 points in the second half. Trent McNair played all 20 minutes in the half, snagging six rebounds. Fellow freshman Kolbe Ashe played 16 minutes in the period, scoring six points with two 3-pointers. NSU kept the ‘Fish at arms’ length, closing out the win, 96-66.
The Sailfish return home on Saturday to play Tampa in a rare evening weekend game. The tip-off takes place at 7:00 p.m.
Florida Atlantic men’s soccer has added six new players to its roster for the spring season. Training is already underway in preparation for the Owls’ second campaign in the American Athletic Conference next fall.
“We are really excited about the guys that are joining us this spring,” commented head coach Joey Worthen. “They all have some college or other high level playing experience that will help them transition to our team. Additionally, they are all great guys that be fantastic for our team culture. We’re glad to have them join our FAU family.”
Noah Kvifte – Forward from Asker, Norway
Kvifte is a junior transfer from St. Leo University (DII) where he spent the last two seasons. The 6’2″ Norwegian scored seven goals in 29 career games for the Lions.
Coach Worthen’s Scouting Report on Kvifte
“Noah is a transfer who can come in and compete for minutes right away. He is big, athletic and a pure goal scorer. He knows what to expect in college soccer and will be ready to compete right away.”
Joep Wouters – Midfielder from Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Wouters is making a cross-country move after appearing in 41 games in two seasons for Santa Barbara City College in California.
Coach Worthen’s Scouting Report on Wouters
“Joep is the type of player that doesn’t mind doing the dirty work in the game. He is
fit, works hard, is a ball-winner, and, on the ball, plays very simple. Technically, he is very composed and will be a good addition to our midfield.”
fall with 13 goals and five assists in 17 games.
Coach Worthen’s Scouting Report on Emery
“Alex is a versatile, attacking player that can play in a few different positions. He is big, physical, and can create and score goals.”
Francisco Ranieri – Goalkeeper from Buenos Aires, Argentina
Rotem Fadida – Goalkeeper from Haifa, Israel
The Owls will look to replace the recently graduated Neil Strauber with another GK from Israel. Fadida has seen plenty of action in the last two years at the University of Hartford. He made 36 starts in goal for the Hawks racking up 167 saves and five clean sheets. A member of the America East All-Rookie Team in 2020, the incoming senior will compete with returning graduate senior Axel Hofmann and freshman Francisco Ranieri.
Coach Worthen’s Scouting Report on Fadida
“Rotem is another player with a lot of college playing experience. This is invaluable experience that he can bring to the team, and we are happy to have him here competing for minutes at the goalkeeper position.”
Alex Emery – Forward from Gulfport, Mississippi
Emery has played the last three seasons at Pearl River CC in Poplarville, Mississippi. The 6’4″ midfielder had his best season yet this past
Rainieri is one of two freshmen coming to FAU off a gap year. The Argentine has spent the last year training with Inter Miami 2 (a reserve team that competes in MLS Next Pro).
Coach Worthen’s Scouting Report on Ranieri
“Fran has a great background in the game from Argentina and most recently playing with Inter Miami. In his first year we expect him to come in and learn from the more senior goalkeepers while pushing them and to develop his game to meet the demands of the college game.”
Kevin Kubitsch – Midfielder from Budapest, Hungary
Kubitsch is also coming off a gap year. After graduating from high school in 2021, the Hungarian has been training with Szeged Grosics Academy in his home country in the time since.
Coach Worthen’s Scouting Report on Kubitsch
“Kevin is a versatile player who has a lot of high level international playing experience. He is a midfielder who we can have an impact on the team early on due to his playing abilities as well as his experience and age.”
The Palm Beach Atlantic men’s tennis team dropped its season opener 6-1 to St. Thomas.

Axel Reich made his debut for the ‘Fish. The freshman from Ecuador dropped his match 6-1, 6-3. Marko Visontai was defeated 6-3, 6-1.
