The group, who works at TRC Solutions in Palm Beach Gardens, traveled throughout Broward and Palm Beach counties for two weeks conducting field assessments and gathering data on damaged utility lines.

They were also in charge of keeping the public safe by redirecting pedestrians and traffic around downed power lines.

“We would stay with the wire until the crew arrived to fix it,” said Brad Robinson.

Community Palm Beach State College Students and Alumni Help Restore Power to Thousands

Seven Palm Beach State College students and alumni worked together to get power restored to thousands in the surrounding communities after Hurricane Irma.

The group, who works at TRC Solutions in Palm Beach Gardens, traveled throughout Broward and Palm Beach counties for two weeks conducting field assessments and gathering data on damaged utility lines.

They were also in charge of keeping the public safe by redirecting pedestrians and traffic around downed power lines.

“We would stay with the wire until the crew arrived to fix it,” said Brad Robinson, an associate distribution designer at TRC.

The group, which included Robinson, Joshua Heinl, Justin Ohme, Abner Llerena, Jordian Forbes, Jessy Giraldo and Fauser Carvalho, worked 16-hour days after the storm. They entered data into computer software systems about

downed power lines that was sent directly to Florida Power and Light crews. They also followed up with customers who were having issues with the electricity to their house due to damaged wires.

Even though the days were long and hot, Robinson said he really enjoyed the project.

“I like working outdoors, but I also like knowing that I’m doing something to help my community,” said Robinson. “It’s very rewarding to see people so happy when their power is restored and get their lives back on track.”

TRC Solutions, which provides integrated services to the power, oil and gas, environmental and infrastructure markets, has become an internship site for many students in the College’s Electrical Powez Technology Program.

According to Associate Professor Oleg Andric, 25 students in the program have landed internships at the company over the last three years.

“Soulful Eye-Candy” Collage Art to be Displayed at Boca Library By: Jack Rubin

Boca Raton’s Downtown Library will exhibit collage artist Nicole Washburn’s work from October 6 to November 6.

Washburn’s “Fragments into Form” features multiple different paper collages that blend colors and images to “portray elements from nature and the supernatural.”

The “Fragments into Form” exhibit includes collages from 2005-2016.

Having lived in the mountain forests of Central Argentina for 22 years, Washburn draws her inspiration for her work from many different places.

Washburn cites the combination of her experiences in the wilderness and her degree in cultural anthropology for her unique perspective on issues affecting humanity today. This uncommon fusion of knowledge has certainly influenced her art as well.

“Each new piece is like an invitation into an alternative world that is deeply connected to nature, spirit, and magic,” Washburn stated.

The artist has been, “strongly influenced by her exploration of shamanic spirituality.” Using this impactful outlook in a western context helps Washburn to portray the supernatural in her art. Mythological images are also present in, what Washburn calls, her “soulful eye-candy.”

Nicole Washburn’s beginning in art was unexpected. Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004, the artist began to experiment with different art forms. I wanted to communicate the feelings I had so that I could heal both physically and mentally,” Washburn said of her motives.

She decided that collage was the perfect fit. Washburn remarked, “I could juxtapose, blend, and overlap contrasting colors, forms, and images.” Washburn’s collages are designed to be spiritual and alternative, and to illicit previously unprovoked thoughts in viewers.

Neil Schulhoff works with program services at the library. He noted the audacity of the artwork, “Her collages jump out at you with all the terror and beauty of life itself.”

The exhibit is free and open to the public during normal library hours. It will run for one month at the Downtown Library, an Art in Public Places venue.

Art in Public Places is a program managed by the Facilities Development and Operations Department of Palm Beach County. Their purpose is to, “stimulate cultural interaction, education and economic development by selecting, siting, installing and maintaining public art.” “Fragments into Form” will become the latest installment.

FAU Tech Runway Announces Maverick Reception By: Michael Demyan

FAU Tech Runway announced that they will be hosting their annual Maverick Reception on Thursday, Oct. 26 in Boca Raton.

The event will celebrate and look back at their accomplishments in innovation through the past year.

Those companies have in turn created over 200 jobs and reached a sales revenue of over $8.3 million, along with a total capital of over $19 million.

A huge assistance that the entrepreneurs have access to are the Tech Runway mentors who work alongside them. Not only will the entrepreneurs be

recognized at the Maverick Reception, but Williams also wants to thank those who have helped along the way.

“We also tip our hats to those who played a crucial role in assisting these entrepreneurs – the FAU Tech Runway mentors, advisory board members, our corporate partners, and the generous donors who enable our companies’ successes,” Williams said.

The reception is scheduled to display innovative technology, including drones, as well as a yet to be announced keynote speaker.

FAU Tech Runway is also offering opportunities to become a sponsor, with three different tiers: Silver, Bronze and Signature.

Palm Beach State Students to Perform Shakespeare Play

Palm Beach State College students will put their acting skills to the test in the Theatre Department’s first production of a William Shakespeare play in six years.

More than 20 PBSC students, one of the largest casts in recent years, will perform “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” at 8 p.m. Oct. 19, 20 and 21 in the Duncan Theatre.

Tickets are $5 for PBSC students, faculty and staff and $10 for regular admission. A free matinee performance will be held for PBSC students, faculty and staff at 2 p.m. Oct. 18 in the Duncan. A PBSC photo ID must be presented.

The comedy portrays the events surrounding the marriage of Theseus, the Duke of Athens, to Hippolyta, the former queen of the Amazons. These include the adventures of four young Athenian lovers and a group of six amateur actors (the mechanicals) who are controlled and manipulated by the fairies who inhabit the forest in which most of the play is set.

“I chose A Midsummer Night’s Dream because it offers the students a chance to explore some of Shakespeare’s most poetic language, due to the love aspect that we see throughout, plus it is a comedy which is always a lot of fun to explore in terms of performing with timing,” said PBSC Theatre Department Director David Hyland.

The performance also includes a twist.

“We’ve set it in the 1920s,” said Hyland. “This is a different interpretation of it that was first suggested by the costumer. I found it an appropriate way to connect with the fun loving nature of the lovers in the story line.”

For student Rebecca Andros, who plays “Helena,” one of the four young lovers, the role is particularly difficult.

“This show is a big challenge because the language contains a lot of poetry,” Andros said. “Each line has 10 syllables, which I’ve had to dissect to figure out what words Shakespeare wants me to stress and why. Then, I try and decode his overall messages which also has taken some time.”

Students like Andros, who are enrolled in Palm Beach State’s theatre program, perform one play in the Fall and Spring semesters. The Fall play showcases a classical play and the Spring a contemporary.

“Typically, we choose larger cast sized plays for our fall production because it helps us to fill the stage better as we are using the Duncan Theatre, and it also provides more opportunities for new students to get involved in some capacity to see what our department is all about and what we are capable of accomplishing,” Hyland said.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream was written in 1595/96. For more information on PBSC’s Theatre Department, visit www.palmbeachstate.edu/Programs/ TheatreDept.

Hoot/Wisdom Recordings Receives Second GRAMMY Nomination

The album“Pá Qué Más,” which was recorded and produced at Florida Atlantic University’s Hoot/Wisdom Recordings under the direction of FAU associate professor Alejandro-Sánchez Samper, has received a GRAMMY nomination in the “Best Folk Album” category for the 18th annual Latin GRAMMY Awards®. The album was one of five nominated in the folk category, and the winning album will be announced at the Latin GRAMMY Awards event on Thursday, Nov. 16 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

“Pá Qué Más,” which was recorded at FAU and released on June 29 through Hoot/Wisdom Recordings, is the second album from the Quinteto Leopoldo Federico to receive a Latin GRAMMY nomination. Their debut album, “Bogotá – Buenos Aires” received a Latin GRAMMY nomination in 2015 in the “Best Tango Category.” Although the Quinteto Leopoldo Federico is best known as a tango ensemble, this new album “Pá Qué Más” is a tribute to Colombian Andean Music.

“I studied bandoneon [the accordion of tango] for five years in Buenos Aires and I love tango but I am also from Bogotá, Colombia and I had this crazy idea of envisioning Colombian Andean music, the music from our homeland using instruments of tango,” said Giovanni Parra, the director of the Quinteto Leopoldo Federico.

The album was produced by Sánchez-Samper and Parra, as well as en-

gineered by Sánchez-Samper and FAU assistant professor Matt Baltrucki. Assistant engineers on the project are FAU instructor Rob Rimmington, FAU commercial music graduates Iván Beltrán, Carlos Patiño and Joel Iglesias, and FAU commercial music students Patrick Montanari and Chirs Moragne.

“Most people when they think of the music of Colombia, they immediately think of Shakira and Carlos Vives,” said Sanchez-Samper. “Colombia has a rich variety of musical styles and although much emphasis has been placed on the popular music of the coastal region of Colombia, in recent years there has been a significant revival and interest in the music of the Andes region of Colombia.

I am thrilled that the voting members of the Latin Recording Academy have recognized this album through this nomination.”

Hoot/Wisdom Recordings is part of the Commercial Music Program in the Department of Music in FAU’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters. It is a student-run record label where students are involved in all aspects of the label, including songwriting, choreography, production, engineering, recording services, video services, promotion and marketing, talent scouting, promotions and marketing, web site management, newsletter production, finance, legal issues, and accounting. Hoot Wisdom was established in 2002 and has produced 28 albums to date.

Rotary Club of Boca Raton West delivers Supplies and Raises $12,000 for Hurricane Victims

Are You Still Paying Too Much For Your Medications?

Hurricane Irma may have ravaged the Florida Keys but the Rotary Club of Boca West is determined to help.

“We started to get in contact with other organizations such as soup kitchens and began to get more volunteers,” said Valnice Silva, a member of the club. “We wanted to reach out to the community and help them as much as possible.”

The hurricane that slammed and devastated the Florida Keys on September 10 still has residents overwhelmed by the havoc it caused. As residents returned to their homes to assess the damage; plucked trees, displaced boats and vehicles, and debris became a common occurrence. While the relief efforts has been tremendous, local Boca organizations have also taken part in the initiative, the Rotary Club of Boca West among them.

The Brazilian-speaking club collaborated with PIB Church to collect 100 pounds of food, water, and supplies for the Florida Keys. The club also raised $12,000 for the Irma victims. The Rotary Club of Boca West also worked alongside Global Assistance Foundation and Volunteer Emergency Relief (VER) to deliver the donations.

“Every member participated in the process, from picking up and dropping off supplies, making care packages,” said Silva. “We had someone constantly updating our page and translating the information. It was a group effort, everyone was involved.”

The Rotary Club of Boca West was not the only rotary club to help the relief efforts. Boca West reached out to Fort Lauderdale Rotary Club, which had a cargo plane going to Key West full of supplies for the Florida Keys. The two clubs decided to pack their donations

together. “Each club tries to help one another,” Silva explained.

“Because Irma hit the whole state and other parts of the Caribbean and we have Maria coming in right now, there is still things to be done and this is going to be taking months,” she said. “We are lucky and very fortunate to not have been as impacted as other parts. The economic impact, we will feel for a while but we are trying to make sure people have food on that table.”

Vera Schafer, the club’s president, was very satisfied with the club efforts, “We couldn’t have done it without our members and the organizations that delivered the donations. Without the cargo plane this wouldn’t have been possible either, so we are especially happy that the donations reached the Keys.”

The hurricane relief efforts are not over, according to Schafer, “While the plans are not solid yet, we do want to do a similar initiative as we did for the Keys, helping deliver supplies and raising funds for Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria.”

“They really need it and we want to help them as much as we can,” said Schafer.

Currently the Rotary Club of Boca Raton West is still seeking funds for the Florida Keys. 30% of all sales up to from the jewelry designer Anny Stern website will given to the club’s relief efforts. The fundraiser ends Oct. 19.

The Florida Keys remains closed to tourists following Hurricane Irma, while water and electricity are restored and storm damage repaired.

Key West expects to completely re-open on Oct. 1, in time for Fantasy Fest, a street party similar to New Orleans’ Mardi Gras. Other area have opened while more severely damaged areas are expected to take a few months to fully be repaired.

Now is not the time to Mourn, It is time to Act

I am beginning to sound like a broken record. Literally. Those of you who have followed me over the years can almost write my column this week.

Another deranged, or should I say sick, human being is responsible for snuffing the life of nearly 60 people and injuring hundreds of others at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas Sunday night.

The 2,000 plus attendees at this country music event went there to have a good time. This was supposed to be a fun event but the outcome was far from what they expected.

Dreams were dashed, hopes shattered and only faded memories left behind after Stephen Paddock rained fire with some high-powered weapons on the crowd.

Police say he killed himself before they could get to him.

What will it take to put an end to these types of atrocities?

All too often we see whenever there is a mass shooting, our elected leaders lower flags, tweet thoughts and prayers, observe moments of silence

and lead national mourning. And oftentimes before the bodies are even in the ground, it is back to business as usual.

Nothing is done to prevent a reoccurrence.

Somehow, it appears our leaders’ blind spots become so apparent in moments of crisis.

What we need most of all now, is not mourning. We need action from you the readers - not the politicians.

It is time to get over the amnesia, stop shaking your heads but get registered to vote if you have not done so yet, encourage a friend or family member to do the same. And on election day, whether there is a general election or not, vote for leaders who will not just fire off a tweet, observe a moment of silence, present a flag to a grieving loved one and then do nothing after. Cast your precious ballot for someone who is willing to make tough decisions despite pressure from less than 5 percent of the population.

I am reminded of the grisly images of the murder of 26 children and adults at Sandy Hook Elementary

School in Newtown, Connecticut, and right here in our backyard, the Pulse nightclub in Orlando. Clearly people bearing arms is not the problem. The issue is guns being in the wrong hands.

When will this carnage end?

Someone suggested to me earlier today that if we start meddling with the 2nd Amendment, pretty soon our elected leaders will start infringing on our freedom of speech. They fear that an effort to save lives will come at too high a price in liberty.

I think there are exceptions to this argument, which has to be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. There are times when individual freedom must yield to the imperatives of public safety.

Let us not make this a 2nd amendment conversation. This is a security issue.

We also need to keep politics out of the conversation and focus on innocent lives that are lost each time we have one of these incidents.

I am also reminded of the San Bernardino shootings when Islamic extremists killed 14 people in 2015.

Our leaders immediately led a ferocious assault on terrorists.

I wonder if Paddock was a Muslim, or had been a member of ISIS would the dialogue be the same as it is today.

It is interesting however whenever there is a mass shooting by someone whose place of origin is somewhere other than the United States, there is a push for laws to ban certain weapons or accessories and restrict access to guns. On the other hand, when he shooter is one of our own, such as Sandy Hook or this week’s shooting, some leaders push for defending personal rights.

While there are no magic wands and laws to put an end to the massacre, something needs to be done.

For now, we need to step up and speak up and let out thoughts be known because just like it happened in Las Vegas and Orlando it could happen right here in our community.

So, go ahead and mourn. But even more important, you need to act.

POSITIVE LIVING

By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

The Urge to Contradict Have you ever witnessed persons who never accept what another is saying to them or to someone else who is part of the same conversation? It seems they have to contradict certain details, most of which add nothing to the accuracy to what is being conveyed.

Whatever is stated about any issue, or reported from personal observation, whether seen on TV, or heard on the radio, some persons appear to have the incurable itch to challenge and contradict. These people want to be “precise” (so they tell us), but on matters which are totally inconsequential to what is

being shared.

If one alludes to a day, week, or month, or whether the event being described occurred in the morning, afternoon, or evening, or if any other insignificant detail is offered, which that person disagrees with, the urge to contradict is immediately heard!

When such things occur in my presence, or even when I am the one being challenged, the question that immediately comes to my mind is: What motivates one to be always contrary and persistently contradictory, sometimes even combative?

The only answers I’ve been able to find to such situations only point to one’s insecurity, arrogance, excessive competitiveness, or even some form of mental instability. Most of all, it should point to a conversation not worth maintaining!

People are entitled to their personal opinions without having to interrupt a dialogue with another, and argue about unimportant issues which in no way alter the veracity of what is being communicated. The ultimate truthfulness of what is being related is absolute, and none of those insignificant details being

questioned can add or detract anything from the conversation.

Too much extra detail seldom adds anything of significance to any issue being discussed. Throughout my life I’ve been one to stand for truth, convictions, and accuracy. Nevertheless, it’s not necessary to be a stickler to insignificant points, and unnecessary matters that won’t add any substance to a correct understanding of a narrative. The urge to contradict draws more negative attention to the challenger than subtracts any significance from the words of the one being challenged!

Master Brokers Forum Welcomed City Council Member, Scott Singer

The Gold Coast Master Brokers Forum (MBF), a networking group comprised of South Florida’s top residential real estate agents, recently visited the newly-opened sales gallery for The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Boca Raton.

The attendees were treated to enlightening presentations about this magnificent pre-construction luxury condominium development and the city’s exciting new public offerings.

More than 60 Master Brokers attended the event, which opened with a welcome from Gold Coast MBF chair Carolyn Block Ellert, followed by an introduction to The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Boca Raton from the development’s sales director, Harlan Goldberg. Mr. Goldberg introduced his sales team and outlined the exciting condominium; one of a select few locations worldwide with a residential property bearing the Mandarin Oriental name. The transformative project will feature eightyfive homes that celebrate the Boca Raton lifestyle, with prices ranging from $1.5 million to $12.5 million for one- to fivebedroom units. Mr. Goldberg was also joined by Frank Weed, Vice President of Development for Penn-Florida Companies, who shared the company’s past and ongoing projects taking shape throughout Palm Beach County.

This was followed by a special presentation from City of Boca Raton Council Member Scott Singer, who

discussed the city’s new infrastructural and economic developments, in a lively presentation tailored specifically to the region’s real estate community. Mr. Singer outlined the downtown area’s new retail, dining, hotel, and residential offerings; groundbreaking events to attract visitors; and the city’s remarkable success in marketing, branding, and maintaining dramatically low millage rates while increasing property values.

“Our company recognizes the value in maintaining strong and friendly relations with South Florida’s outstanding broker community, and appreciated the chance to welcome such a distinguished group of professionals to our $3.5 million sales gallery,” said Mr. Weed.

“We were delighted with the opportunity to visit this spectacular project, and to learn about an exceptional addition to South Florida’s luxury real estate inventory,” said Carolyn Block Ellert, Gold Coast MBF chair. “It was also a great pleasure to discover the exciting new projects that are taking shape in Boca Raton, and to have Council Member Singer brief us in a way that spoke to our specific interests and concerns.”

The Gold Coast Master Brokers Forum, comprised of top real estate professionals from Broward and Palm Beach County, is generously supported by Wells Fargo.

Palm Beach School Board Approves Make-Up Days for Hurricane Irma

School Board members unanimously approved three previously scheduled professional development days for teachers in the School District of Palm Beach County as make-up days for Hurricane Irma.

These days – October 16, November 3 and January 8, 2018 – were presented to the School Board for approval at Wednesday’s regular Board meeting, and approved as make-up days. All Palm Beach County schools were closed seven

school days to prepare for and clean up after Irma.

Two of the days were waived by Florida Education Commissioner Pam Stewart. The District will have met the instructional requirements without the additional two school days lost to Irma.

The decision to make up the days was made after consulting with an advisory group of principals, teachers and other community stakeholders.

Duffy’s Sports Grill to Open Second Boca Raton Location

Duffy’s Sports Grill, Florida’s premier family-owned sports-themed restaurant, has announced they will open their second Boca Raton location on Friday, October 27th. Located in the Mission Bay Plaza at 20465 South State Rd #7, this will be their 35th location as the company continues to expand throughout the state. Hiring for the location, which will fill over 150 full and part-time positions, began this week . This new location in West Boca comes on the heels of Duffy’s recent groundbreaking of what will be their 36th restaurant in South Port St. Lucie.

“Since our first Boca location opened in 2002, we have heard countless times that our MVPs wished we had another location further west,” said Duffy’s Sports Grill President, Jason Emmett.

“When we learned of the opportunity in the Mission Bay Plaza we knew it would be a perfect location for us. The West Boca area has always been a market we’ve wanted to have a presence in, and we look forward to welcoming our new neighbors, as well as our existing MVP’s,

The 9,000-square-foot restaurant will offer extensive indoor and outdoor seating for up to 324 patrons, including a large lakefront patio. 90 high definition 65-inch 4K flat screen TV’s will broadcast all satellite sports action, and all customers can look forward to enjoying over 20 ice cold beers on tap and 2 for 1 drinks all day every day in their spacious bar and cocktail areas complete with sleek, upscale décor and iconic sports memorabilia. A dedicated take-out area will serve guests who prefer to dine at home, and a semi-private dining room will provide an ideal venue for private parties and corporate events.

The restaurant will feature freshly prepared, made-from-scratch dishes which Duffy’s is known for, including their Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl, awardwinning half-pound Certified Angus Beef burgers, fall-off-the-bone baby back ribs, Lobster Tacos, Jump Lump Crab Mac & Cheese, a variety of signature salads, and specialty handcrafted cocktails.

columnists ROBERT’S COMMUNITY REPORT

FAITH

By Robert J. Tamasy

By Robert Weinroth • Things are beginning to get back to normal as events, postponed

by Irma, are now coming back online. One of those events, the monthly membership breakfast for the Greater Boca Raton Chamber, was held at the Via Mizner Country Club on Thursday September 28th. For the students many of the public schools in Boca Raton, this was their opportunity to receive grants from the Chamber’s Golden Bell Foundation.

Over $80,000 was distributed to the schools to support enhanced educational activities.

• Congratulations to the FAU Owls on an impressive 38-20 Conference USA victory against Middle Tennessee to start off their conference play with a record of 1-0! The fans were treated to an exciting game with Singletary rushing for 133 yards and 4 TD’s; Howell added 88 yards; Driskel added 187 yards and a TD; and Bryant added 93 yards and a TD. Lane Kiffin can claim the first victory against MTSU since 2007! Looking forward to a great season!

• The City Council was likewise playing catchup from the storm as it held the final budget hearings on Monday night. In “normal” years, municipalities and taxing districts are required to have their budgets approved prior to the end of September to allow the Florida Department of Revenue and opportunity to revue and certify the budgets prior to the Tax Collector loading the new millage (tax rates) into their systems to generate the property tax bills for FY 2017-18. Due to Irma’s impact on the state, Governor Scott allowed extra time to complete the process. The City Council approved the budgets for Boca Raton on Monday night after making last minute adjustments. As part of the budget process, the Council approved the distribution of over $400,000 to area non-profits.

• On Tuesday, the Lewis Katz Industry Icon Series of the Jewish Federation of SPBC’s Business & Professional Division was held where World-renowned photographer, Marc Serota, presented a photographic essay of Irma’s impact on the Florida Keys. After riding out the storm in Boca Raton, Serota went back to capture the storm’s aftermath. Serota had a camera in his hand since high school.

His attention to detail and early practice days have led to the release of numerous iconic coffee table photography books, work detail in war zones, at political rallies, on crime-filled streets, along Super bowl sidelines and most recently the aftermath of Irma.

• That afternoon, the Boca Chamber’s International Business Alliance (held at Lynn University) featured Paul Frost, Commercial Officer at the US Department of Commerce.

Frost presented a comprehensive discussion of the tools available to companies seeking to export goods and/or services to international locations. In cooperation with Enterprise Florida, Frost assists US companies throughout South Florida’s in their quest to compete in international commerce. Paul will be a moderator of a panel discussion during the upcoming Symposium at Lynn University on

October 6- October 12, 2017

November 15, 2017 organized by the College of Business & Management at Lynn University in strategic partnership with IBA and the Human Resources Association of Palm Beach County. Tickets may be purchased through the Lynn University box office or online at www.Lynn.edu/LynnSym Exhibitor & sponsorship opportunities are still available.

• Rounding out the day was a reception hosted by Habitat for Humanity to kickoff their “CEO-Build” program. Habitat prides itself on being able to bring people together to build homes, communities and hope. Habitat for Humanity of South Palm Beach County’s CEO Build, chaired by BRRH CEO Jerry Fedele, celebrated the unstoppable power of Boca Raton’s corporate leaders to come together to help transform the community by helping and working alongside local, hard working, low-income families with a hand up, not a hand out to build a safe, decent and affordable place to call home. Randy Nobles, president and Kari Oeltjen, Chief Development Officer, introduced the deserving family who will ultimately be able to call the new building their home!

• The Research Park at Florida Atlantic University held its third annual Research Park Annual Awards celebration on Wednesday, October 4th at The Addison Restaurant. The awards recognize distinguished contributions to the Research Park’s mission to create and sustain the ideal environment for innovation and invention, maximizing the academic and entrepreneurial talent and regional resources in South Florida to accelerate economic development and prosperity. The award recipients for 2017 were: • Distinguished Researcher: Ken DawsonScully, Ph.D. is currently a tenured associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences in FAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Science.

• The Junior League of Boca Raton held its 30th Annual Woman Volunteer of the Year (WVOY) Luncheon on Thursday, October 5, at the beautiful Boca Raton Resort & Club. The Christine E. Lynn Women’s Health & Wellness Institute was this year’s Award Sponsor and Saks Fifth Avenue Boca Raton returned as the Fashion Show Sponsor. Saks presented a Fall Trends fashion show with over 50 fashions presented. The luncheon celebrated outstanding, local women in the community by recognizing nominees from nonprofit organizations throughout the county for their dedication and expertise as volunteers. The 2017 Woman Volunteer of the Year Luncheon honored 42 amazing women and their contributions to building a better community. The Honorary Chair was Barbara Schmidt with Kirsten Stanley serving as Chair. Joyce DeVita was selected this year’s WVOY! Congratulations to all nominees.

• On October 7th from 5-9PM, come celebrate National Hispanic Heritage month at the Peter Blum Family YMCA with Baila Conmigo. This is a FREE event with fun for the entire family!

Genuine Humility – What it Is, and Isn´t

Can you think of someone that’s genuinely humble? How about someone who has been extremely successful – and yet humble nonetheless? Does anyone come to mind?

Recently I listened to a talk radio show in which the commentators were discussing humility, and how it relates to a person’s success. One speaker offered his view that humility would hinder a person from succeeding. Someone might project a sense of being humble outwardly, he said, but inwardly the individual must maintain arrogance and extreme selfconfidence to become truly successful.

That prompted me to start wondering, is that true? Are humility and success mutually exclusive? Then I remembered the classic business book by Jim Collins, Good to Great, in which he describes what he terms “Level 5 leaders,” people that led organizations that were not merely good, but great. After much research, Collins and his team discovered that among the qualities top leaders possessed, they included both humility and “ferocious resolve, a stoic determination to do whatever needs to be done to make a company great.”

Contrary to the talk-show speaker’s opinion, leaders who guided their companies from good to great did not have to believe they were the central focus of everything that happened. In fact, Collins wrote, “The good-to-great leaders never wanted to become largerthan-life heroes. They never aspired to be put on a pedestal or become unreachable icons. They were seemingly ordinary people quietly producing extraordinary results.” They also were quick to deflect praise, redirecting it to their teams.

How does this happen? Today the media spotlight seems to shine bright-

est on egotistical corporate leaders, sports figures, entertainers and other celebrities.

There does not seem to be much of a “market” for the self-effacing, humble type of leader that Collins described in his book. And yet, according to the book of Proverbs, humility is a prized commodity for anyone holding a leadership capacity:

Leaders that focus on self are flirting with disaster. Throughout history we see examples of self-centered leaders whose decisions were shaped by ambition, pride and greed, leading to their ultimate demise. “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom” (Proverbs 11:2). “Before his downfall a man’s heart is proud, but humility comes before honor” (Proverbs 18:12).

Humble leaders recognize the source of their abilities and accomplishments. We all have innate strengths and abilities; we may have worked hard to develop and refine them, but often the talents were there already. Recognizing God as the source is a big step toward becoming a humble, yet successful leader.

“The fear of the Lord teaches a man wisdom, and humility comes before honor” (Proverbs 15:33). “Humility and the fear of the Lord bring wealth and honor and life” (Proverbs 22:4).

Humility enables a leader to seek – and receive – counsel and advice from others. The humble leader understands he or she is not all-knowing, so they are very responsive to the input from others regarding important decisions. “Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him” (Proverbs 26:12).

The Boca Raton Tribune

sports Lynn Men’s and Women’s Soccer Claim SSC Weekly Awards

After unbeaten weeks for both the Lynn University men's and women's soccer programs, three Fighting Knights garnered Sunshine State Conference weekly recognition on Monday afternoon.

Max Herbert was named the SSC Offensive Player of the Week for the men, while Alexander Roth and Alexa Downie claimed the SSC Defensive Player of the Week awards.

Herbert played the hero in consecutive games for the Fighting Knights as he netted the game-winner in a 1-0 victory over nationally-ranked Rollins and again in a 3-2 victory at Eckerd. Against the Tars, Herbert scored his first career goal. Lynn trailed on two separate occasions at the Tritons, the last coming with 10 minutes remaining in the match. After an equalizer in the 82nd minute, Herbert nailed the game-winner in the 87th minute.

Roth tallied two saves to preserve a 1-0 victory over nationally-ranked Rollins. Roth's first save came in the waning moments of the first half from within the six-yard box. His second stop came late in the match off a header in the six-yard box. The shutout was the sixth straight and the 14th of his career. The

victory was also the first over Rollins at home since 2012.

Downie improved her season record to 5-3 overall and 3-0 in SSC action with the two wins on the week for the women's soccer team, allowing just one goal for a 0.50 goals-against average.

She stopped a total of 16 shots on the week, including a career-best 12-saves in a 2-0 shutout of Rollins on the road.

She followed that up with 88-plus minutes of shutout soccer at home before conceding a late goal to Eckerd in a 2-1 victory on Saturday. Her three clean sheets this season are tied for the most in the SSC, and she leads the league with 6.13 saves per game. Downie's strong play this week also helped Lynn to its first 3-0 start in conference play in nearly 20 years, as the Fighting Knights last accomplished the mark in 1998.

Herbert earned the award for the first time in his career, while Roth was tabbed as the Defensive Player of the Week for the fourth time in his Lynn career. Downie is the first Lynn women's soccer player to be honored by the conference this season, and it marks the first time in her career she has earned the award.

Florida Atlantic Defeat Middle Tennessee 38-20 Behind Singletary’s Big Night

By: Zach Evans

The Florida Atlantic Owls got their first win over Middle Tennessee in nine years on Saturday night at FAU Stadium as the Owls defeated the Blue Raiders 38-20.

Wanting to avenge their 77-56 defeat last season at Murfreesboro, Tennessee, the Owls capitalized early and had a dominant first half.

“It was definitely personal to the defense, especially after last season’s loss,” said linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair. “ I told you guys on Monday I told the team that on Monday, I remember that feeling and walking off the field and walking in the locker room telling myself I won’t feel like that again.”

The Owls got on the board early with Devin Singletary’s explosive run down the left side to give the Owls the early 7-0 in the first series of the game.

Singletary’s 19 yard run capped off a 7-play, 77 yard series by the Owls.

Singletary for his second rushing touchdown of the night with 2:53 left in the first as the 5 foot 9 back was able to once again find the endzone on a 13 yard rushing attempt to extend the Owls lead 14-3.

The Owls went to their star running back early and often, at the first quarter FAU rushed for 15 carries and 117 yards and only passed for 29. For the game, Singletary led all back with 133 yards, and four touchdowns.

The last time the Owls rushed for four touchdowns was on November, 26 2011 when Alfred Morris ran all over

the University of Alabama at Birmingham Blazers.

“He’s [Singletary] just doing what he’s been doing all year long,” said head coach Lane Kiffin. “If you can put guys around him and block for him he does well. He really got our team going tonight, these last three game we’ve run the ball really well.”

In the second quarter Singletary would complete the hat trick. With 12:51 left in the quarter Singletary would score his third touchdown of the night with more time left on the clock. To cap off the blowout in the first half Greg Joseph put up a chip shot 22 yard field goal making it 24-6 at the half.

The American Heritage product was playing angry, with something to prove and wanted to put an exclamation mark on it. Not only did Singletary wreck the defense, but he played like a man possessed, and frustrated with the loss against Buffalo, a game he rushed for 156 yards, on 22 carries and three touchdowns.

”It’s a lot easier to play quarterback when you have a back field like we have,” joked Jason Driskel. “We have three or four guys that can really play running back and we have a great offensive line.”

Tight End Harrison Bryant led the team in receiving yards with 7 receptions for 93 yards and a touchdown.

The Owls now look ahead to their second conference matchup of the year as they take on Old Dominion on the road next week.

Florida Atlantic Names Student Athletes of the Week

Florida Atlantic University named Devin Singletary and Sydney Nemtuda student-athletes of the week, for the week of Oct. 2.

Singletary, known as “Motor,” carried the ball 24 times for the Owls Saturday night versus Middle Tennessee. He tallied 133 of the team’s 252 yards on the ground. He averaged 5.5 yards per carry and recorded his fourth contest with over 100 yards this season. The sophomore tied a school record with four rushing touchdowns in the 38-20 win over the Blue Raiders. Singletary was named CUSA Co-Offensive Player of the Week

Nemtuda, from Algonquin, Illinois, has seen her playing time steadily increase since the beginning of the season and just registered her best weekend

of the year. Against FIU on Friday night, she registered 10 kills and 10 digs for her first career double-double. She added three service aces, two assists and two blocks. In FAU's match against Charlotte on Saturday, she was even better with 19 kills and 16 digs for her second straight double-double. The performance earned Nemtuda the C-USA Freshman of the Week award.

Football will head to Old Dominion to take on the Monarchs Saturday, Oct. 7 at 6 p.m. The game will be broadcasted live on STADIUM. Volleyball will continue C-USA play with two road matches, against Rice on Friday, Oct. 6 and Middle Tennessee on Sunday, Oct. 8. First serve on Friday night is set for 7 p.m.
