Community Teen Read Week Concludes at Boca Raton Libraries By: Shaquandra Briggs
Kids and teens ages 10-17 years old gear up to celebrate another year of Teen Read Week at Spanish River and Downtown libraries on October 9th –13th. Headed by the youth services department of the libraries, they will use the national initiative created by the Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA) to promote and build literacy in the minds of our youth. “The whole week we encourage the kids to be reading, we’re going to do different book displays and things to get them going,” says Amanda Liebl, the youth services Programs Director for both Boca Raton libraries. This year’s theme is multi- lingual with the slogan “Read for the fun of it! Students will participate in fun, educational activities with the ultimate goal of pointing them back to the fun in reading. “Even though on the surface you’re like ‘okay, t-shirt designs and painting pots, what does that have to do with
literacy?’ but when we have these classes we’re going to bring in books, resources, and DVDs, that have something to do with what we’re talking about,” says Liebl. “If they’re interested in something that we brought up through a craft, they know they can return to the library and get more information or spark an interest in things they didn’t care about before.” The children at the Downtown Library will be reading culture themed books, and will cut and create t-shirt designs that represent their own culture. Moreover, the teens at the Spanish River Library will travel via food samples tasting dishes inspired by the Mexican holiday: Dias de los Muertos. Many of the events held at the libraries are sponsored by The Friends, a group that voluntarily fundraises during the year to keep the library at ‘the cultural core of Boca Raton’. More information about the Teen Read Week, the new logo, and how to enroll can be found at www.Bocalibrary.com. This event is free for all.
Local Rotarians, Students Accepting Donations for Hurricane Matthew Victims By Staff Reporter In the wake of Hurricane Matthew, which caused death and wrought destruction in the Caribbean, Florida, Georgia and North Carolina, some local Rotarians are accepting donations to provide disaster assistance. “Many of you are inquiring how we/you can help victims of Hurricane Matthew in our district, other parts of the country, and other parts of the world,” Mathieu Daquin, president of the Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunset said in an email to his members. “District 6930 has partnered with two organizations that have the mechanisms and networks set up to make sure the funds donated and help needed get to the right people.” The Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunset is one of six Rotary clubs in Boca Raton. Rotary International has renamed the old Haiti Earthquake Disaster DAF to the Hurricane Disaster Relief DAF, Daquin continued. “This is NOT solely designated for Haiti anymore,” he said. “Donors can, if they desire, specify the place they want their donation to go on their donation form.” The hurricane killed at least 36 people across five Southeastern states. The Category 4 storm also affected an estimated 330,000 Haitians including 6,400 who are living in s¬¬¬helters, according to published reports. Extensive damage to main bridges and other transportation networks have left some areas cut off and vulnerable. According to Mourad Wahba, the United Nations secretary general’s deputy special representative for Haiti, hospitals are under severe strain and water is in short supply. Authorities also say contaminated water supplies threaten to lead to a surge in cholera outbreak, similar to what happened after the earthquake in 2010. Aerial footage from the hardesthit towns showed a ruined landscape of metal shanties with roofs blown away, downed trees everywhere and mud from overflowing rivers covering the ground. Matthew destroyed at least 80 percent of crops in some areas, so people will head from the countryside into cities. And the slums of cities like Port-au-Prince and even towns in the south will only grow and worsen, Wahba said in published reports. “The people there have lost

their homes, and they’ve lost everything in their homes,” said Ruthnie Auguste, the student president of KOP Mentoring Network, a Delray Beach-based mentoring program, which has been gathering supplies for the Haitian children and their families. “So, whatever we can do to help out, would be appreciated.” Relief agencies have been experiencing difficulties delivering food and supplies because major roads and bridges have been wiped out. The United States has dispatched a Navy ship, the USS Mesa Verde, whose 300 Marines will add to the 250 personnel and nine helicopters already ordered to help with search-and-rescue efforts, including medical evacuations, and transporting supplies. “We express our sympathies to everyone who was affected by this monster hurricane, and particularly those who lost their loved ones,” said Auguste, 17, a senior at Atlantic High School in Delray Beach, and a Haiti native. “As a youth mentoring organization we are especially sympathetic towards those children who are suffering in one way or another as a result of this disaster.” The Delray Beach-based KOPMN is collecting items like antibacterial bar soap, antibiotic ointment, aspirin/Tylenol, blankets, medicine, first aid kits, flashlights, gauze, baby food, baby formula, bandages, batteries, diapers, toothbrushes, small toothpaste (sample size), shampoo (sample size), soaps, hand sanitizer, hygiene kits, brushes, combs, moisturizer, lotion, feminine products, kitchen, toiletries, bug spray, clothing, non-perishable food, pillows, sheets/ pillow cases, hair clips, headbands and ponytail holders, cleaning supplies and water purification tablets, Auguste said. This is not the first time KOPMN has gathered supplies or accepted donations for disaster relief. The students sent supplies to their counterparts in the Bahamas in the past and collected and delivered school supplies to their peers in Punta Gorda and Fort Pierce after hurricanes Charley and Frances destroyed both communities in 2004. Donations to the DAF can be made through Rotary.org. For more information, contact the District Disaster Chair Phil Lustig at 561-212-6554 or phil. lustig3@gmail.com To donate supplies of for more information, call KOPMN’s relief line at 561231-2125.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen
Do not be too Complacent, Heed Hurricane Warnings Once again, we here in Palm Beach County have been spared the full wrath of another hurricane when Matthew, one of the largest and most threatening hurricane systems this region has experienced in a blue moon, skirted us. If I were a gambler, I would have lost royally as I was sure it was going to slam us directly– at least according to all the reports. I must mention that this is the first time since Wilma in 2005 that I did some preparation for a hurricane. While I have always respected the authorities’ directives to be prepared, I was never one to hop on that panic buying bandwagon, when there is news that a hurricane is bearing down on the Florida coast. It has become such a time-honored Floridian tradition, to rush over to Home Depot, the local supermarket or even the gas station at the last moment to stock up on food and other emergency items. After seeing that map on the news, I said this was not the time for bravado. I took the opportunity, while the skies were still clear and the seas still
calm, to do my own “panic stock up” then headed out to help some friends to board up and put their shutters up. Once again, I did not follow my gut, and again, I was wrong. Regardless, whether it was luck, prayers, or divine intervention, I am thankful it did not make landfall anywhere near us. Unfortunately, our neighbors to the north were not as fortunate. It also walloped the Caribbean, hitting communities with torrential rains, powerful winds and substantial storm surges. I shudder when I think of how many lives would have been lost if it had been a direct hit. There were so many – a few friends included – who did not board up their windows nor evacuate to safer grounds. As one quipped, “That’s why I pay insurance, for times like this.” Another said she has been in South Florida 17 years now and every year we keep “talking about it coming, if this is the year, I want to see what it is like.” To hear responsible people, educated adults and yes parents say this is not only absurd but criminal. I wondered
what might have happened to their homes, including one that is on the barrier island, after Matthew’s unwelcome visit. The devastation wrought in the northern end of the state has been heart-crushing. And just Tuesday, I heard from a friend that they found her uncle’s body under his house in North Carolina. How sad. Notwithstanding this, Palm Beach County must be thankful that we did not suffer a direct hit. Even though we were spared, municipalities and the county were affected because of lost man-hours and some fallout in tourism from people either cancelling their visit to the area or cutting their trips short. Flooding in several communities once again demonstrated the poor state of our drainage systems and how inept we are as a city in doing the small things that can keep communities safe. Kudos to Palm Beach County administrator Verdenia Baker, the consummate leader who assured residents during her briefing on CNN that while we were bracing for a big one, her crew was prepared to handle it. It was also
impressive and several residents found it so comforting to hear from their city officials either on the local or national news. I hope the leaders in more municipalities will be more assertive during future disasters and keep their residents informed. This is not the time to be hunkered down at home. As an elected official, you need to be in a command center or another safe place where your constituents can hear from you directly. As one reader told me, “It’s fine to hear from the reporter about the storm that’s coming, but I want to hear from my mayor about what they city is doing to protect me and make sure the roads are clear and safe.” I should also tip my hat to our first responders who did a stellar job. They often face unnecessary risk since they will have to save you if worst comes to town. Therefore we must do our part by not exposing them to unnecessary danger, especially when it arises from people’s stubbornness and recalcitrance. In other words, when authorities say to stock up, pack up and get out: Do it.
POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.
Eliminate the Unnecessary! Most people, while in motion, repeatedly are confronted with forks on the road, and need to know with certainty how, and whereto, they must proceed. Normally that experience comes long before one reaches the end of the line, namely, the destination toward which they’re moving! Similarly, a person needs to live unencumbered from whatever could be an impediment in completing a task, in reaching a destination, in being faithfully prompt for the delivery of what relates to a promise made to one or
more who depend on its fulfillment! These considerations are indispensable for the proper, effective execution, and legitimate delivery of any finalized task, whether great or small; they should occupy a significant place in the planning stages and the production schedule of any assignment! Nevertheless, as management consultant and author, Brian Tracy, advises, “Just as you need a to-do list to guide you through a busy day, you need a not-to-do list to keep you on track.” In other words, learn what
tools to utilize in each procedure, but also be wise in the elimination of whatever may constitute excess, or unnecessary baggage. The urgency we often encounter in the need to conclude significant activities, cannot be obstructed by any extra weight which is not part of our necessary equipment for quality production! Take a single-minded view of your primary duties, assigning other accomplishments to a secondary, even tertiary levels. Concentrate on what’s major so as to devote your undivided
attention to the work, and complete with distinction what’s at the top of your priority list! To quote author Brian Tracy again, “Remember, there are always a hundred little things that you can do that will make very little difference to your success or to your contributions.” Thus, eliminate the unnecessary and concentrate on prompt delivery of what’s expected of you, without creating waste on account of undue haste!
Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr. is a Florida resident who, for many years, was a professor at the post-graduate level. He is a writer, a sought-after conference speaker, a man who lived in five continents of the world, having received his education in four of them. When he resided in southern California, he wrote a weekly column for the daily “Anaheim Bulletin,” which was carried for about six years, until he moved to south Florida.

Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton Rescheduled 2016 Mayors Ball to October 16 Planned for same location with same red carpet arrival, the band, program and experience planned for this Saturday evening, the Rotary Club Downtown Boca Raton’s 2016 Boca Raton Mayors Ball has been rescheduled to Sunday, October 16th at 5:30 pm. The announcement was made today by Boca Raton Mayors Ball Co-Chairs Jon Kaye and Constance Scott following several days of monitoring the path of Hurricane Matthew, keeping current on Governor Scott and Mayor Susan Haynie’s hurricane announcements and continuous communications with Broken Sound Club, Rotary Club leadership, the Ball Advisory Committee and vendors. “As it became clearer that the event would need to be rescheduled, we worked quickly to find the best alternate date and secured location availability, and then re-confirmed engagement with all our event partners,” said Mayors Ball CoChair Jon Kaye. “It was through the ongoing, sometimes hour-by-hour solutionfinding collaboration with Broken Sound Club General Manager John Crean and his team, The Steve Chase Band, The Boca Raton Historical Society, Dalsimer Atlas Floral & Event Decorators, photographers and others, we pulled together to
deliver the intended five-star service and attention-to-detail for the rescheduled date.” Kaye added that the decision to move to a Sunday evening beginning at an earlier time followed a deliberate, thoughtful review of all other gala and community events already planned for the following weeks – including Florida Atlantic University’s Homecoming Weekend and The Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce’s annual gala – so that the rescheduled Mayors Ball date would not compromise or have an impact on any other such event. “While we look forward to celebrating Boca’s assets, visionaries and honorees a weekend later, we want everyone to make their focus this week to be about being and remaining ‘safe and sound’ at home and at work,” added Co-Chair Constance Scott. “Preparation is critically important right now…as we hope for the best, brace for the impact of Hurricane Matthew.” For more information or questions on the rescheduling of the Boca Raton Mayors Ball, please contact Deborah Freudenberg at info@rotarydowntownbocaraton.org or (561) 299-1429.

Before Hurricane Matthew bears down on South Florida, my travels took me to Boca West Country Club for the Soroptomist Int’l Women of Distinction Breakfast hosted by Terry Fedele, where I nominated first lady of Florida Atlantic University, Caroline Kelly for the Woman of Distinction award. Several hundred people enjoyed a very delicious breakfast and watched as many women recipients including Sue Heller, Ingrid Fulmer, Janice Williams and many others received awards. Elaine Wold received an award for Lifetime Achievement Recipient of the Year. Thank you to Caroline Kelly for hosting a great table of women.

“Silver Skies” is the name of an older adult rental complex in Los Angeles. It is also the title of a movie written and directed by Rosemary Rodriguez (“The Good Wife” TV series 2009-2016). This movie was the centerpiece attraction at the 2016 Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival. The choice was appropriate, because we certainly have plenty of retirees in our area. “Silver Skies” also afforded work to actors who are past their prime. The principal one is George Hamilton, who plays an actor named Phil who is entering early stages of Alzheimer’s dementia. Phil lives with Nick (Jack McGee), who works at a local horse race track. I initially assumed Phil and Nick were a gay couple, but no. Nick develops a crush on Ethel (Valerie Perrine). The essential dilemma of “Silver Skies” is that the building is being sold to be

converted to condos. Residents can either purchase (at a greatly increased price) their apartments, or get out. They have just 30 days to make a decision. One tenant, Harriett (Mariette Hartley) has the wherewithal to solve the problem. But the building’s attorney (Heather McComb) and its seedy manager (Micah Hauptman), are rigid. Just when you think all is lost, there is a last-minute plot twist that saves the day. It is great fun seeing actors we grew up with, such as Alex Rocco, who died July 18, Howard Hesseman, Barbara Bain and Dick Van Patten (playing himself). The Boca Raton/Delray Beach market is ideal for this film, but younger people might learn a thing or two if they give it a look. Three stars

When organizers of the Boca Raton Mayors Ball promised "a few surprises" for the roughly 440 attendees of this year's event, they didn't expect it would mean postponing the sold-out gala because of Hurricane Matthew. Initially set for last weekend, the second annual event has been rescheduled for Oct. 16, 5:30 p.m. Sunday at Broken Sound Club, located at 2401 Willow Springs Drive. "Everything else stays the same," event co-chair Jon A. Kaye said. That means a black-tie affair with an Oscar-style arrival, a festive reception, dinner set amidst citythemed décor and live music by the Steve Chase Band.

In my photo restoration business, I often see photographs that are stained, faded, or even torn into pieces. My job is to carefully put the pieces back together, remove stains and blemishes, and restore faded colors. In the process I use a variety of tools. Sometimes the tools are obvious, such as soap and water and a cotton swab. Other times I use highly sophisticated computer graphics software, such as Adobe Photoshop, to fill in cracks or even replace pieces that are missing. One of my great pleasures – professionally and personally – is being able to present to a customer a restored image that they believed was lost, beyond repair, whether of a loved one or a cherished memory. There is a metaphor here for everyday life, because often it is not just photos that are damaged. People’s lives are damaged as well, sometimes very badly. In one respect or another, this is true for all of us. Fortunately, we have a skilled craftsman named Jesus, who can examine the pieces of our lives, see what is damaged, discover what is faded or has been abused, and even find what is missing in our lives. Then, like a skilled photographic specialist, He can carefully go about putting things back as good as new. Using specialized software, I can work to make just about any photograph even better than new, invariably better than the client expected. I work meticulously so that which was neglected, damaged, or torn can become superior to the original. I like to tell my clients that not only can I repair damaged photographs, but I also can improve them, even if they didn’t know there was anything wrong. In a far more profound, eternal way, every day God is doing the same
type of work in our lives through His Son, Jesus Christ. He makes it His business to take lives that are damaged, broken, faded, or even have pieces missing, and put them back together, better than before. God delights in this restoration and renewal process. He declares this in the Old Testament of the Bible. “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?…” (Isaiah 43:19). Then, as our relationship with Him grows, we are invited to experience a divine, everlasting transformation process: “Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” (Romans 12:2). As we focus on God and the Scriptures, we can become new people. Instead of cotton swabs, airbrushes and computer software, God uses love, forgiveness and reconciliation as His tools for transformation. Admittedly, I as a photo professional do not go around fixing every photo that I see. And God does not automatically repair broken lives. Each of my clients knows they have a problem photo, which is why they bring it to me to be improved. Once they have reached out to me, I do everything I can to solve their problem. In much the same way, God wants us to come to Him and admit that we are ready for the help that only He can give. This is why Jesus said, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened…” (Luke 11:9). Just as my customers bring their needs to me, we must bring ourselves to God.

FIND OUT WHY THOUSANDS
A View From The City Council
of Floridians have
By Robert Weinroth Congress has now adjourned until November 14th. It will return in a “lame duck” session to address unfinished business before the newly elected Members are sworn into office in January. There is little confidence in anything controversial being handled before the 115th Congress convenes on January 2, 2017. Before heading home, another Continuing Resolution was passed allowing the government to continue operations until December 9th. The CR is a stopgap solution to funding federal programs at FY 2016 funding levels (less a 0.5% across-the-board reduction to comply with a discretionary spending cap. While the CR finally provided just over $1 billion in emergency funding to combat the Zika virus as well as $500 million in targeted emergency funds for states recently impacted by flooding, relying on the four week lame duck session to wrestle with 8 funding bills in the House and 10 in the Senate promises to result in more brinksmanship and less long range budget planning. The system is broke and given the polarization of the US Congress (reflecting a like situation of the electorate), there is little hope the budget process will revert to how it’s designed to work. With the continuing changes in the House and Senate, few involved in the budget process have ever seen it operate, as designed. If it worked as designed, the process would begin with a detailed proposal from the President. The Congress would then develop a budget resolution,
PEOPLE ON MEDICARE
setting limits on how much each committee could spend. The terms of the budget resolution would limit individual appropriations, entitlement bills, and tax bills on the House and Senate floors. The budget process is subject to statutory deficit-control requirements (e.g. PAYGO, discretionary funding caps and the ever popular, Sequestration). Legislation implementing a budget resolution that violates those requirements triggers across-the-board budget cuts to offset the violations. It would be nice to think that after the next president is elected, the 115th Congress will be able to operate in a fashion contemplated by the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 to produce a budget for FY 2017, albeit a few months late. In reality, we can expect a continuing reliance on the CR, which is extremely disruptive to federal agencies because it places them in the position of planning in three-month increments versus executing long-term budget plans they already developed. This is especially detrimental to infrastructure and defense planning, each of which require years (not months) of advance planning. At the end of the day, CRs create massive inefficiencies throughout the federal government. The federal bureaucracy would be far more efficient and we, the people, would be much better served if Congress could pass its appropriations on time so all federal agencies could move forward with long-term planning and implementation.
Council Member Robert S Weinroth was first elected to the Boca Raton City Council in March 2014. He was re-elected to a full three-year term, without opposition, in March 2015. on March 31, 2015, Mr. Weinroth was elected to serve as Deputy Mayor, su1cceeding, term limited Deputy Mayor Constance Scott. He is also a city representative on the Palm Beach Metropolitan Planning organization (MPo) where Mayor Susan Haynie is currently Chair of this important forum which provides both long-range and short-term transportation planning for all of Palm Beach County. in addition, Mr. Weinroth was appointed to the Palm Tran Service Board and has served as an appointed member of the Boca Raton Airport Authority. Council Member Weinroth is married to Pamela with four boys and two dogs in their blended family.

sports FAU Falls to FIU, 33-30 By Stephanie Fonseca
It was cloudy around Ocean Bank Field, for the 15th meeting between FAU and FIU for the Shula Bowl. Red filled the stands as FAU had a significant crowd in Miami. FAU got off to a quick start in the opening minute when on the second play on the drive, Driskel handed off the ball to Greg “buddy” Howell who broke through the gap and ran for 68 yards straight into the endzone. On the following drive, Alex McGough, found receiver Thomas Owens for a 17 yard pass down the field placing Fiu at their 27 yard line. But FIU saw themselves facing a 3rd down and 6 at FAU’s 17 yard-line. McGough looked up and couldn't find a receiver, but finding a hole in the defense, he cuts to the right and rushes 17 yards for a touchdown. FIU kept at it and at the top of the 2nd quarter, on a long 4 and a half minute drive, McGough found the endzone once again on a 35 yard run. But it didn’t last long when, on one of FAU’s longer drives, with less than three minutes until half time, Jason Driskel connected a pass with Marcus Clark for 9 yards tying up the game with a minute 30 left. FIU had possession and were trying to see if they would be able to turn over the game. But on the second play on the drive McGough’s pass was intercepted by FAU safety Jalen Young. FAU had possession and with passes by Driskel coming up empty, kicker Greg Joseph got called out to attempt an 50 yard field goal, the longest of his college career. With 15 second left on the clock, Joseph’s kick was good and FAU was on top going into halftime. Back from halftime, FIU had the ball but on the first throw by McGough, FAU linebacker Azee Al-Shaair caught McGough’s pass intended for tight end Zach Armour, and ran it back for 30 yards for a touchdown. On the following drive for FIU after an incomplete pass by McGough, on third and 9, Mcgough gave it another try and connected a pass with tight end Jonnu Smith for 40 yards. After a timeout called by FIU, they continued to inch their way into FAU territory and after a penalty called on FAU for pass interference the Panthers had a rush for 3 yards and Anthony Jones found the endzone to put FIU on the board. FIU continued in pursuit of the lead and on the first possession by FAU, FIU linebacker An-
thony Wint forced a fumble by Gregory “Buddy” Howell which was recovered by the Panthers. With good field position, at FAU’s 26, McGough’s pass finds Thomas Owens for a touchdown and the lead. But FIU’s extra point was blocked by Trey Hendrickson followed by a 29 yard punt return by Kerrith Whyte. Freshman running back Devin Singletary, was put in for Buddy and didn’t disappoint. With six carries on the drive for 50 yards, Singletary picked up his first touchdown in his college career and the third lead of the game for FAU. The Panthers took the field looking to get a lead but after McGough’s passes came incomplete, they decided to go for a field goal putting them one point behind the Owls for the close of the third quarter. But at the top of the 4th quarter FIU got on top with a 32- yard field goal by Austin Taylor. FAU tried to fight back but all attempts fell flat. And as the clock counted down to zero the Panthers rushed over to take hold of the Shula Trophy for the 4th time out of the 15 meetups. After the game one thing was for sure, it was a tough loss once again for FAU. Trey Hendrickson, captain and defensive end who blocked a field goal in the first quarter, was unhappy with the loss and expressed,“We need to win games. We’re not a bunch of losers, this is uncharacteristic of our defense; this is uncharacteristic of our program; we aren’t a bunch of loser but our record isn’t showing that.” Head Coach Charlie Partridge congratulated FIU but also admitted that they didn’t accomplish their mission. “Im proud of them but they’re in there [the locker room] upset we didn’t win the game. Now I am proud of how they have handled adversity, but we want to win games. Proud of how they’ve handled it from a continuing work standpoint, and staying together and all those things that really matter for the long haul but we wanted to win the game and we didn’t and from that standpoint [we we’re] not good enough,” completed Partidge. Coach Partridge also said how everyone is taking complete ownership of the loss but as they go ahead they know one thing is for sure, they know they have the talent but they need to close game as strong as they open them and get the win. FAU looks ahead to changing the wave, as they travel to Marshall for the match up on Saturday, October 15 at 7p.m.
