Community Boca Ballet Theatre Announces An Residents Speak Loud and Clear: Extrodinary The Nutcracker City-Owned Waterfront Land Performance This Year Must be Kept for Public Use Boca Ballet Theatre announces a huge milestone for this years The Nutcracker; we are celebrating 20 years of Marleen Forkas presenting this iconic ballet. Marleen and her late husband Harold donated the initial funds for all of the gorgeous back drops and costumes and Marleen has committed to support the production as presenter every year since. Boca Ballet Theatre is so grateful to have her as the Grand Dame of The Nutcracker! Our favorite Sugar Plum Fairy, Cassandra Trenary, a soloist with American Ballet Theatre recently debuted her role as Aurora in The Sleeping Beauty. This is what the New York Times wrote about her: “To conquer Aurora is proof that a dancer is on her way to becoming a ballerina, and Cassandra Trenary killed it!” “Ms. Trenary’s debut in this challenging part was a triumph; her spunk and delicacy came as no surprise to anyone who has watched her this season”. Of course she will be dancing with her favorite partner Gray Davis, also from

American Ballet Theatre, as her Cavalier. Their beautiful Pas De Deux keeps the “magic” alive as they mesmerize the entire audience. Wow…we feel extraordinarily fortunate. This unique version of the holiday classic showcases choreography by Co-Artistic Director Dan Guin, and a cast of more than 100 dancers including Raisel Cruz, Carlos Ignacio and Galindez Macias from National Ballet of Cuba, Toby Lewellen from Ballet Arkansas and Andrew Harper, a Freelance Dancer & Choreographer. Set to the music by Tchaikovsky, The Nutcracker is a special treat for all ages. Following the matinee performances don’t miss the Gingerbread Ball, a festive children’s party where kids and their parents can meet characters from The Nutcracker, including the Sugar Plum Fairy her Cavalier and of course Clara, while enjoying treats from “the land sweets” on the stage! This is a great photo opportunity and not to be missed.

The referendum was written as part of a citizens’ petition after Boca Raton City Council did not approve the proposal when it was brought to them in August. “The Boca Raton question [is] perhaps the City’s most important grass root movement in decades,” said BocaWatch publisher Al Zucaro. “Residents have responded to the City Council’s desire to hear what the residents want.

Residents have spoken with a resounding voice.” Back in August, in a 4-1 vote, the Boca Raton City Council decided to postpone a decision that would have made the former Wildflower property labeled for only recreational use. Rather than make a decision, the council decided to give the voters the power by putting the decision on the November 8th ballot. During the August meeting, Robert Weinroth said that the vote is the only way to get this decision resolved, “The reason that I think that this should go to a vote is because honestly, I don’t think that we know what the voters want, and I don’t think that this can continue until we do.” The other councilmen echoed this, leading the decision that sent the referendum to the November ballot. “The task now is to begin working with the City Council, our elected officials, for the ‘interpretation and implementation’ of this ordinance consistent with the political will,” added Zucaro.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen

Kids May Not Vote, But Do Not Underestimate Their Intelligence I did not sleep on election night, not because I was up celebrating the surprising and shocking victory of Donald John Trump as the 45th president of the United States or because I was mourning the defeat of Hillary Rodham Clinton. I actually was restless, wondering how I would explain this nightmare to the students in my mentoring program. Everything I had been telling them about character and being prepared for life was proven wrong with the election. For the past 25 years, I have been mentoring young boys and girls. In the earlier years, many were poor, black and Hispanic, low-income boys from the inner city, and I have instilled in them lifelong values: be honest, do not bully, respect the military and law enforcement officers, respect all people regardless of their disabilities or race and most of all respect women. But for months, they had been getting mixed messages from their national leaders in, what was by far, the most blistering and anxiety-induced campaigns in our lifetime. They witnessed

a see-saw of scandals on both parties: Clinton, flawed by lingering taste about her misuse of handling of government documents and the unprincipled avarice of her husband’s presidential days. In Trump, they saw an overt racist who singled out groups by derision because of their race and religion, ignored conventions of common decency, hurled vulgarity casually and rained personal humiliation on his political opponents and critics in the media. One of the first phone calls I received Wednesday morning was from one of the students. Surprisingly and fortunately, she did not challenge my principles. However, she said, “Mr. C. Ron, I don’t want to go on the inauguration trip now that Donald Trump is president. You can put someone else in my place.” In a matter of minutes, this graduating high school senior, who had been looking forward to this three day field trip - her first outside the state - was ready to forego her trip to Washington, DC.

Her dream was dashed. I will hear from the rest of the students when I meet with them as a group in a few days. Already I have a gut feeling that the sentiments will mirror that of the senior. Later in the afternoon, another student stumped me: “Mr. C. Ron, you news people usually know everything before it happens. How come you didn’t see this coming?” I smiled and tried to dismiss it with, “The people have spoken…. That’s it, plain and simple.” But this 10th grader was not going to have that – not today. The aspiring photo journalist wanted to know if what I have been telling him to do to prepare for a promising future in journalism, too, was a fallacy. I had to be honest and come clean. I admitted, shamefully, that the news media had gotten so caught up in the Trump-Hillary hoopla that it was out of touch with the coalition of mostly blue-collar ,white and working-class voters who felt that minorities and immi-

grants were taking over their country and their jobs were going overseas. Without skipping a beat, the student shook his head and left me with a backhand comment: “I hope he can bring back at least the perception that the [newsrooms] are fair and ethical place.” Wow! As a mentor, my students expect me to give them guidance and good advice to address the challenges they experience and crossroads they encounter each day. My advice to them at our next meeting will be, “Well, we have a new president as you know, although he may not have been your choice, the people have voted and that is the democratic way – at its best. We pray the very best for him in office and we still must respect him since he is our leader.” But still, if I want to continue to earn their respect and show true character, I’d better be prepared to have an honest discussion with them about what truly happened and what the real deal is.

POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

A Global Public Confessional? For many centuries, the Roman Catholic Church has made available, in its many parishes worldwide, a space called the confessional, where their faithful can appear in the presence of a priest and there reveal and confess, in private, their sins for which they seek absolution. In more recent decades, it appears that a public confessional is also taking shape through the media, where so many individuals publicly expose some of their most bizarre actions, not seeking pardon from anyone, but simply as a means of acquiring or increasing fame, from the hearers and viewers. Many celebrities, as well as simpler folk, also appreciate these opportunities because it brings some desired fame

to some, and increased notoriety to those already well-known, but still eager for more adulation from fans and followers, regardless of the gravity of what is being broadly unveiled! This happens in radio talk shows, in television programs that accomplish the same, as well as the manifold tools readily available to convey their latest scandal related to their life-style, or to announce a separation, divorce, or any other form of domestic dispute, which would keep their name and fame alive in the public ears, eyes and mind of many around the globe. But it doesn’t stop there either, because the print media also, often excessively, keeps on promoting the scandal in

question, to the applause of many. These confessions, heard or read all over the world, are not for expressions of contrition, neither in seeking relief, much less absolution of anything. Yet, public approval is what finally happens to several, regardless of the nature of their conduct! At first there may be some indignation on the part of journalists covering the story, or via letters to an editor, as well as from other public comments in the work place, among neighbors, and in other ways where opinions are expressed, some regrets may be shared, but after a while things return to “normal” with many offering their seal of approval, either by their silence, or through direct, favorable comments.

The Court of Public Opinion turns out to be the global confessional for people eager for additional public exposure, knowing that whatever evils they may have committed will not make them any less acceptable to the public in general. A meaningless, forced apology may justify the actions of several who voluntarily reported their deeds, or were caught in compromising situations, without incurring society’s harsh verdict. And so, life continues with more frequent events that make little or no sense at all, often receiving the greatest acclaim from the global watchers, instead of encouragement for behavior above board!

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.

Sol Children Theatre to present The Christmas Carol The beloved tale of the pennypinching miser, Ebenezer Scrooge, and the awakening of his long-forgotten festive spirit is a seasonal tradition for many. Sol Children Theatre will revisit Charles Dickens’ ghostly tale of the Past, Present, and Future when they present Brian Way’s faithful adaptation of Dickens’ timeless classic. The production will run from December 2nd through December 18th at Sol Theatre in Boca Raton. First published on December 19th, 1843, Dickens’ novella immediately met with critical and popular acclaim, and has never been out of print. A Christmas Carol illustrates the author’s concerns about time, family, and society's ills; however Dickens also used his own humiliating childhood experiences, along with his sympathy for the poor, and various fairy tales and seasonal stories to enhance his tale. Charles Dickens’ The Christmas Carol will be directed by Christopher Mitchell, and will feature a cast composed of adults and children. "With it paying homage to both a cherished story and treasured holiday, I'm thrilled to be directing this production,” Mitchell says. “It’s eerie spooky undertones and touching story line have been great fun to play with. Everyone loves a good ghost story and a great Christmas story. And with this play, you get both!” Director Mitchell’s adult cast includes Jim Gibbons as Ebenezer Scrooge; Murphy Hayes as Jacob Marley and Joe; Robert Fabano as Bob Cratchit. Other adult cast members include Sara Grant, Barry

Katz, Fern Katz, Constance Moreau, Jenna Wyatt, Jeremy Wershoven, Amy Coker, John Maher, Neil Evangelista, Shafer Ross, and Melanie Leivers. Younger cast members include Eden Wexler as Tiny Tim, as well as Faith Alfieri, and Sabrina Lipp. Boca Raton’s Sol Children Theatre is a not-for-profit theatre organization founded by veteran director and actor Rosalie Grant fifteen years ago. The company’s mission is to provide children with a safe, secure, and highly professional theatre experience. Those children in then in turn provide quality theatre experiences for audiences. In this production of Charles Dickens’ The Christmas Carol, Sol students will have the opportunity to work with adult professional actors as well as with their contemporaries. Brian Way (1923 – 2006), a British teacher, director, and writer, is often credited with originating educational theater for children. He and Margaret Faulkes, in founding the Theatre Center in London, introduced the concept of informal theatrical performances in school, and the expansion of arts education. In his lifetime he wrote over 50 plays, including Pinocchio, The Mirrorman, and Sleeping Beauty, as well as the renowned text Audience Participation. Tickets for Charles Dickens’ The Christmas Carol are on sale now and can be purchased on line at www.solchildren.org or by calling 561-447-8829. Tickets are $20; $12 for children aged 11 or younger. Sol Children Theatre is located at 3333 North Federal Highway in Boca Raton (33431).

This past Thursday I attended a luncheon at the Mae Volen Center honoring Marleen Forkas who donated two large buses to the center for the Senior’s there to get around. A delicious lunch of tuna, chicken and egg salad and fruit was served to approximately 100 people and guests. There was music for dancing and after lunch everyone went outside for the ribbon cutting ceremony. So proud of Marleen for all she does for our community!

Another awesome Saturday evening. I attended the Grand Opening of Trainerspace Fitness Center tonite. There was a large juice bar serving many flavored non alcoholic drinks and huge platters of stone crabs, shrimp, prosciuto and mozzarella, lamb chops, crab cakes, eggrolls and much more. A large tent was set up outside with tremendous boats filled with sushi and a bar serving champagne and wines. The fitness center is truly state of the art with all kinds of equipment you can think of. I believe you need a trainer to use this facility or you can bring your own. A delicious cappucino bar served many kinds of flavors and everyone was given a gift bag with a workout shirt and other goodies. Trainerspace pulled out all the stops to make this a fantastic event.

Marvel mumbo-jumbo. That pretty much describes “Doctor Strange,” starring Benedict Cumberbatch. “You need to read the comic book,” said Al, my friend and fellow reviewer. It would be difficult to get my hands on a 50-year-old Marvel Comics issue featuring the doctor with strange powers. My notes were as incomprehensible as the story itself. Suffice to say, I never read “Doctor Strange” or any other Marvel Comic, so I am at a distinct disadvantage of making heads or tails of this fantastic story. Dr. Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) is a celebrated neurosurgeon. Early on he is in a horrendous auto accident. His hands, which are the tools of his trade, are badly damaged. After

moping around, he travels to Katmandu (of course) and encounters the mystical Mordo (Chiwetel Ejiofer) and the even more mystical Ancient One, played by Tilda Swinton with a clean-shaven head. The Ancient One bestows magical powers upon Dr. Strange. Sparks fly out from his now healed hands. It helps him fight the bad guy, played by Mads Mikkelson. Dr. Strange gets help from the ever-lovely Rachel McAdams as a fellow doctor. “Doctor Strange” is CGI special effects dominated, including some really cool scenes when streets of Manhattan are accordioned up and folded. What it all means I haven’t the slightest idea. I have failed on my mission Captain, but check it out if you are of the Marvel Universe, Two stars

The Secret To True Genius One of my favorite television shows is “Scorpion.” In this series, a group of socially inept geniuses contract with the Department of Defense to solve potentially catastrophic problems. They are highly intelligent, even though their people skills often leave something to be desired. The fascinating aspect of every episode in the series is that all the geniuses have their own unique fields of expertise, but when they combine those skills, their synergy and the sum of their collective genius solves incredibly complex and challenging problems. Unlike many TV shows, in which the concepts presented defy comprehension and require the viewers to “suspend their disbelief,” the underlying concept for “Scorpion,” in addition to being very entertaining, has much practical value for real life – especially the workplace. We see this demonstrated every day in our business and professional settings. Our organizations may have “star players,” highly talented individuals who stand out in terms of performance and productivity. But even these people could not accomplish what they do without the skills and contributions of many other individuals. Speaker and author Tim Sanders summarized this truth nicely at a conference that I attended when he said, “Genius is a team sport.” There is an adage you might have heard, “You win with people.” It fits this idea of “genius,” whether in the workplace, on an athletic team, or even in a family. If you put the right people in the right places doing the right things, chances of success are much greater. You hardly ever see or hear someone espous-

ing an individual working in total isolation, without assistance from anyone. This concept is embraced in the Bible in a number of passages, including 1 Corinthians 12, which uses the metaphor of the human body to teach why collaboration as a team is important. The apostle Paul wrote, “If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the sense of smell be? But in fact God has arranged the parts of the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be” (1 Corinthians 12:17-18). It can be a trap to give full attention to top performers and neglect the indispensable contributions of people who work behind the scenes or do “grunt work” so that top executives, salespeople and other leaders can excel at what they do best. One of the great principles from the Scriptures is found in Ecclesiastes 4:9-12, which reminds us, “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work. If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!… Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” So the point is simple: If you want to maximize innovation in your organization, if you desire to create an environment where “true genius” is encouraged and has a chance to flourish, embrace and leverage the talents of others. As someone has wisely observed, “Not one of us is as smart as all of us combined.”

Winners of Boca Raton Sunrise Rotary Club’s 29th Annual Golf Tournament By Staff Report

The Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunrise held its 29th Annual Golf Tournament on Saturday, Oct. 29, at Boca Lago Golf and Country Club. Organizers said the event was a huge success and raised much needed funds to support children’s needs and education. “The weather was cloudy, cool and windy. Yet, we had a great turn out with nearly 80 golfers participating in the tournament," Rotarian N'Quavah R. Velazquez, a spokesperson for the club and founder, CEO and president of Achievement Heights Academy, said in a news release. “We raised approximately $15,000 to support our various children's and education projects” Rotarian Norman Matus’ team won overall first place. Rick Taylor also won the $1,000 cash raffle and there were many takers for the silent auction items

including Neill Roach who snagged an autographed golf bag by Bubba Watson. The golfers were challenged to achieve a hole-in-one at holes #2 and #6, which were more than 150 yards from tee to cup. The winners would have earned two super prizes of $10,000 cash courtesy of State Farm Agent/Rotarian, Rod Mabe and a new 2016 Honda Civic, sponsored by Coral Springs Honda. However, there were no winners. Founded May 31, 1985, the Rotary Club of Boca Raton Sunrise sponsors several local projects including the Annual Teacher of the Year Dinner and Awards, the Rotaract Club of Lynn University, which is a leadership club for college students and young professionals, the club’s Dictionaries and Essay Contest and college scholarships. The club meets for breakfast on Thursday at 7:30 a.m. at the Renaissance Hotel, 2000 NW 19th St., Boca Raton.

Feen on the Scene By Diane Feen

Spookey Times – Steve Fox Is Top Gun These are scary times – that’s why the skeletons and zombies at the Steve Fox Annual Halloween Party seemed like everyday folks. But of course they weren’t. The Steve Fox parties are something of a quirky sociological mix. Yet they are widely heralded as the most reliable and long lived social-single mixers on both sides of the sea. Fox is somewhat of a pied piper for single people. His parties date back to the 80’s when his big bashes were the place to be in the Hampton’s. But Fox has evolved – and so have his party guests. For one thing – we’ve gotten older and so has Fox (believe it or not). The married party promoter and matchmaker is now sponsoring singles cruises, matchmaking and parties like the one held at Blue Martini in Boca. The latest Fox fete was a way to celebrate Halloween in all its glory. Though we were mostly Baby Boomers the eclectic nature of our colorful garb was as varied as the flowers at the Botanical Garden. There were skeletons, zombies, policemen and cops, a faux Pope, Mad Hatter, Ghosts, Sexy Jailbirds and Angels. It was a panorama of panache with colors and glitz to the max. Everyone was especially friendly (a good quality for the loveless or lovelorn) and the good times rolled. Most of us met potential mates (perhaps not love at first sight) but a valuable piece of self esteem on the go. There were buffet supper stations around the room with quite good food. This years’ Grand Prize was a four-day stay in Panama. Guests and Ghouls also got a

free drink, appetizers and music that did not override conversation (a plus when you’re thinking more about social security than sex). “I met a lot of men and had fun at the party. I also saw a lot of old friends,” said Lynne, who was taking business cards from male admirers on her way out of the club. Leslie also enjoyed herself. The designer maven, who works at the mall, was dressed as a Queen of Hearts. Her black sequin mask, satin ruffled collar, top hat and corset waist frock with hearts made her a dreamers’ reality. Beside the prizes – that were handed out on stage – there was dancing on every surface at Blue Martini. Since it was a mature crowd there was no table dancing (that I saw) but lots of swaying to the music on the stable nature of the floor. “I saw so many friends I have not seen in years,” said Susan Goldstein. “I enjoyed the party and met a nice man who took my phone number. I also saw someone I dated years’ ago but he didn’t see me so I bolted.” It seems Mr. Fox keeps perfecting his genius when it comes to getting people together. He continues his fight for the plight of our socialization skills. Let’s face it, we’re not kids anymore but we still want to have fun. And Fox knows how to make that happen. “The party was laid back and a great deal. I got a drink and dinner and it was easy to talk to people. Everyone seemed to be having a great time,” said Susan, a property manager. Susan was right. A good time was had by all.

FAU Conducts Professional Development in Egypt By: Kelsie Weekes Florida Atlantic University professors within the College of Education recently traveled to Egypt to deliver intensive professional development to hand-picked educators in Cairo. The workshop resulted from a Memorandum of Understanding signed between FAU and the Balanced Education Company (BalancEd). BalancEd is spearheading teacher professional development in Egypt, and this new MOU arranges for the future development of partnerships to include an annual workshop series, the completion of a teacher leadership certificate, as well as master’s degrees in educational leadership or curriculum and instruction. Maysaa Barakat, Ph.D., an assistant professor in educational leadership and research methodology at FAU and a proud native of Egypt, spearheaded the project in collaboration with Salma El Bakry, Ph.D. and Mahmoud Hamza, Ph.D., cofounders of BalancEd. Michelle Vaughan, Ed.D., assistant professor in curriculum, culture and educational inquiry at FAU, and Dilys Schoorman, Ph.D., chair of curriculum, culture and educational inquiry at FAU, were involved in a six-month long planning and development phase producing six curriculum modules and the ongoing research project. This culminated in the first ongoing series of professional development sessions offered in Cairo by FAU faculty

members. Ira Bogotch, Ed.D., and Pat Maslin Ostrowksi, Ed.D., served as research partners on the project with Robert Shockley, Ph.D., representing FAU’s College of Education as project administrator. Maysaa Barakat, Ph.D., Jennifer Freeland, Ph.D., John Hardman, Ph.D. and Dilys Schoorman, Ph.D. traveled to Cairo to lead workshops with 16 Egyptian educators who had been handpicked to participate in 12 days of intensive professional development. These 16 educators were tasked with leading teacher professional development for public school teachers in Cairo. “As I pass by the drama room, I remember the good days we had with the FAU team,” said Isabelle Simon, one of the trainees. “All of the learning and understanding, all of the confusion and questions, reflection time, all of the good times together, are deeply embedded in our memories. The shift of the mind-set is being transferred to our teachers and inside their classrooms.” Reflecting on the impact of the experience, Schoorman agreed. “I was elated to see genuine shift in the mind-set of educators toward a comfort with active and engaged learning,” she said. “We were able to achieve in Cairo what many of us struggle to achieve here in the USA. I am hopeful that we will be able to replicate the results achieved in Egypt in our work in Broward and Palm Beach counties.”

Blazers Soccer Looks To Build From Last Season in Search of Elusive District Championship

By Stephanie Fonseca The Boca Christian High School soccer team has been on the rise in the past year. Coming off of a losing 2014-15 season, and having a coaching change at the close of that season, the 2015-16 season was progress. Last season, the team had the best record in school history, Forward Stefan Kneffel shattered the scoring record and Caeden Hood came just a bit shy of beating the assist record, a record currently held by Head Coach David Weil. To many, it may seem like there might not be much left on the list. For one, Coach Weil wants to see his player shatter his assist record. But the main goal for this season is a District Championship, a mark that the team has yet to reach. Leaving off of last season on a sour 2-1 loss to Dona Klein in the District Semifinal, the team lost some key seniors but gained in number and talents. The season comes with a couple firsts early on. For the first time in the school’s history they will field a JV squad, where they will practice together and separate

for games. “Pure talent wise, this is the most talented squad we’ve ever had,” said Coach Weil. But his main focus is seeing how these separate talents could come together to make a winning team battling through challenges that the team might face. But throughout the season Coach Weil wants to know if through those challenges, “ they rely on each other and become a team or are they a bunch of individuals.” Which Weil believes can determine whether they will be a good team or a force to be reckoned with. The returning team has a lot of familiar faces. The Blazers’ strong back four are returning as well as their leading goal scorer, two leading assists players and two goalies with the addition to another two to the team. With the familiar faces returning they also have more talent which Coach Weil hopes will lead to more scoring players he can count on. But looking at the peaks from last season, like their first win ever over Yeshiva, in an emphatic 5-0 fashion, they also look at their district semifinal loss which pushed them in the off season. “I’ve seen teams get disappointed,” added Coach Weil. “The emotion that was in their face and the pain and heartbreak from that loss is really pushing them and giving them a drive in the offseason.” Coach Weil also acknowledged that this team is the first that collectively went out during summer conditioning and has been preparing themselves for the next season. The main goal this season, says Coach Weil, is that elusive district title. “I look up and Boys soccer is the only one that doesn’t have a banner, and I don’t like that at all,” expressed Weil. With the group of young talents that he has, he’s excited to see how the new players fit into the puzzle and is expecting great things for the season.

Thank you Representative Ted Deutch for Supporting Home Healthcare for Florida Seniors

Nearly 350,000 seniors and Americans with disabilities across Florida depend on high-quality, cost-effective skilled home health for post-acute, rehabilitative and chronic care services. Despite the value of home health, recent policies have put access to this essential health sector at risk. The Partnership thanks Representative Ted Deutch for leading efforts in Congress to ensure seniors and individuals with disabilities are able to receive care in the comfort of their own homes, where they can remain independent and be close to loved ones.

Blazers Look To Build From Last Season in Search of Elusive District Championship

We applaud Representative Deutch for recognizing the clinical value of home health and the key role it can plan in achieving savings, improving our nationâ€™s healthcare system, and securing Medicare for the future.

Thank you, Representative Deutch, for supporting Medicare beneficiariesâ€™ access to skilled home healthcare services!
