While the once a month Food Truck event at the Hallandale Beach City Hall is great for the community, there is a real need to expose the businesses we have throughout the entire city - not just on the east side. When will city officials understand that hosting citywide events is the only way all of Hallandale Beach will flourish in these tough economic times?

It was great to see the City of Hallandale Beach host the first of its once a month food truck events, which features some tremendous culinary food options. But what

COOL AIR USA Best in residential & commercial air conditioning service

When Linda’s air conditioner quit working, it was 90 degrees outside and she was expecting house guests. “I was sure their visit would be miserable for them, as well as for my family,” she says. “I figured it would take several days to get it repaired.” But when Linda called Cool Air USA, the company sent a trained, certified technician out immediately. “The problem was fixed within hours,” she recalls. “The technician was friendly and courteous, and I could tell he was extremely knowledgeable. My guests kept cool during their visit, and we all were happy.” Gary was tired of his high summer electric bills.

When it comes to branding, Hallandale Beach looks to keep up with the times by making changes

‘AROUND THE CITY OF CHOICE’

HALLANDALE BEACH - Recently the city commission moved forward on our branding initiative. The last time the city embraced branding and marketing was under the leadership of RJ Intindola. The city worked with Ambit Marketing out of Fort Lauderdale. At that time coastal cities were adding beach to their name to help make it clear to future residents and business owners that we were located on the coast. It was also intended to attract investors to our community. We changed the logo through an art competition in partnership with the Art Institute in 2001. The current city logo was a result of those efforts. The commission approved the logo from a group of designs. The commission at that time did not change the motto, “City of Choice”. After the changes we gradually added the logo letterhead, business cards, buildings and entrance features. That was a little over ten years ago. In 2011 the City embarked on the next set of goals established in our Transportation Master Plan goal to install “way finding” signs throughout our community. These signs would direct residents and visi-

Mayor Joy Cooper tors to key locations and businesses within our city and act as a demarcation for various neighborhoods and facilities. The signs will help direct traffic and help remove some traffic from our main corridors by offering alternative and more direct access. Before purchasing signs, City Manager Antonio requested that we consider rebranding the city to reflect our changing economy and demographics. The city hired Motiv8 Marketing firm out of Hollywood to do the work and create a new brand. The process took over 6 months. The firm started with one on one interviews with each commissioner. After these interviews they interviewed Staff. The research did not stop there. They spent time at various venues

Choosing a logo is not easy. Not every person will like the same thing. The key is to work with a firm that can blend the many perceptions and opinions of many stakeholders to create not just the logo, but the message. The commission had the two finals to choose from; a multi colored H with Beach spelled out along the horizontal line in the H and a colorful round graphic with Hallandale Beach written out in a free hand script. The H made the cut, but the Commission agreed to change the font type of beach in the H.

throughout the city interviewing random individuals and asking them questions on their views of the city. They also set up focus groups to collaborate in a group setting to see where the same themes and perceptions emerged. The marketing team then evaluated the results from all sources to create six different logos. The logos were then narrowed down. This process took many weeks. The Staff and Commission individually weighed in on which logos were their favorites. Once this phase was completed Motiv8 went back to the focus group to fine tune two of the logos and ideas for a new motto. The City Commission had chance to make a final selection at the last commission meeting in December. Choosing a logo is not easy. Not every person will like the same thing.

The key is to work with a firm that can blend the many perceptions and opinions of many stakeholders to create not just the logo, but the message. The commission had the two finals to choose from; a multi colored H with Beach spelled out along the horizontal line in the H and a colorful round graphic with Hallandale Beach written out in a free hand script. The H made the cut, but the Commission agreed to change the font type of beach in the H. As with picking out ice cream; everyone likes it, but not everyone wants the same flavor. This was pretty close though. The motto under the H left some room for debate. One was “Florida’s Best Bet” the focus group wanted to base the marketing not on just gaming, but wanted a broader appeal to reflect diversity and energy. The motto was

agreed to be “ProgressInnovation-Opportunity”. . The other tag lines can be utilized depending on the media market. The final H has not been released yet. The next steps will be the roll out. Staff will internally begin utilizing the logo and when we need to purchase items where logos are used. When capital projects are implemented including; way finding, entrance signs, vehicles and other community facilities the new logo will be utilized. The City will also begin to implement in our technology applications. I encourage our readers to go to our website to review the December 18th meeting at www.cohb.org. where you can view the Motiv8 presentation in its entirety. Our Meeting schedule has changed this month. The next regular meeting will be January 14th

starting after the CRA meeting which will begin at 6 PM. The Commission will be conducting a scheduling meeting at 5:30 PM. The second regular commission meeting is scheduled for January 24th at 6 PM. Remember to join the City and The Community Civic Association to celebrate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. There will be a scholarship luncheon on Saturday January 19th at the Community Cultural Center on SE 3rd Avenue and come out to the Parade and festival on Monday January 21st starting at 10 AM.

AVENTURA HEAR CENTER ‘NEW wireless aids make watching TV a pleasure again!’ Hear

From Page 1A –––––––––––––––––––– It is a cheerful place, bright and airy. Ellen Pardue, the patient coordinator, greets you and in no time at all, you get to see the specialist. If you call in the morning, you can usually get an appointment the same day, and if you just want to drop by while you are in the area, Ellen will do her best to get you right in. "What we are doing here," Bob said, "is offering the best hearing care anywhere, so you won't wait long to see me and you will be treated professionally and courteously." The hearing evaluation takes 15 to 20 minutes and there is no charge. "The first thing I do is to check the ears with our advanced equipment." A video-otoscope is used, a non-invasive device that transmits images of the ear canal and eardrum onto a monitor's high definition plasma screen. "I look in there and make sure there is not a lot of wax in the ear. Wax can cause a mild hearing loss, and sometimes removing the wax eliminates the problem! If there is no excessive wax, we go to the test room and I do an audiometric evaluation to see if there are some sounds the patient cannot hear well." The natural aging process and noise can cause a hearing loss, natural aging being the most common reason for hearing problems. Stereos, I-pods, boom boxes, traffic, and a noisy work environment all contribute to the cause. "It's the prolonged exposure to noise that does it," he said. BENITEZ WAS STARKEY LAB'S FITTING SPECIALIST Before coming to the Aventura HEAR Center, Bob was, for 13 years, with Starkey Laboratories, the premier manufacturer of hearing technology in the United States. He is a Harvard graduate, a licensed Hearing Aid Specialist in the State of Florida, and nationally Board Certified in Hearing Instrument Sciences. At Starkey, he was a fitting specialist. "I was the one to whom people like myself (a hearing professional) would send their patients when they couldn't figure out a way to make those patients happy with their hearing instruments." This experience made Bob an expert with hearing aid fittings. “The new digital instruments are complex and require expertise if they are to be properly tuned for a patient’s individual needs,” Bob said.

Wi Series Wireless Hearing Aids.

IT IS POSSIBLE YOU SUFFER SOME HEARING LOSS If the tests show conclusively that you suffer permanent hearing loss … Benitez said, " One out of three Americans over age 65 has a hearing problem and half of adults over 75 have one. Everyone over 65 years old should be getting their hearing checked regularly. Hearing problems, like having difficulty understanding what people say, can get worse if not treated. That is why it’s important to get your hearing checked. Once you know you have a problem, you can take steps to deal with it. Just as your primary care physician does not routinely check your eyesight, she or he will not be checking your hearing. In both cases physicians normally assume you are seeing a specialist for care in these areas. The sad part is that while most seniors take good care of their eyes, very few actually have yearly hearing tests. There is no reason for it! You do not need a referral to have a hearing evaluation— just call the Aventura HEAR Center and ask for an appointment!” Improved hearing leads to an improved quality of life. Many people who have a hearing loss become more and more isolated because they cannot enjoy conversations in social situations, but hearing help is now available that really works. THE NEWEST TECHNOLOGY Hearing aids have become very sophisticated and there are many, many choices. How is a patient to decide which hearing aid to wear? “It starts with a hearing professional you can trust,” Benitez said. “It is a good thing to do research and find

out what you can about hearing loss and how hearing aids can help, but when it comes to choosing a hearing aid, you need to follow the advice of a professional.” Many patients think because their friend or a family member did well with a particular hearing aid that they will also do well. “That’s not always the case. Certain types of hearing instruments are designed for particular configurations of hearing loss, and your friend or relative may have a high frequency loss and do well with those aids, but you have a low frequency loss and the aid is completely inadequate for you. As a hearing professional, I am responsible for evaluating your loss and recommending the appropriate hearing aid for your loss, lifestyle, and budget.” “Lifestyle is important,” he adds, “because a person who is not active or who has a very limited social life due to health issues simply does not need some of the advanced features available on the more sophisticated instruments.” Some hearing aids offer features designed specifically for very active social lives, and that is not what everyone needs. On the other hand, most patients would benefit from a hearing aid that does not whistle all the time, or an aid that makes noisy rooms more comfortable, or one that allows for telephone use without having to push a button. Benitez said, “many of the old problems that people had with hearing aids which prevented them from wearing them have been overcome by advances in technology, so even if you have tried hearing aids in the past and did not liked them, there are good reasons to take a second listen.”

And what about all those different hearing aid companies, which one makes the best hearing aids? “They all do,” Benitez adds with a chuckle, “it’s not the company, it’s the professional fitting you that is crucial.” There are several big hearing aid companies worldwide, and they all make very good products, they are all priced very competitively, and the Aventura HEAR Center has relationships with all of them. “It used to be one company was better at one type of aid and another at a different type. With the advent of digital aids, that has all changed. My experience working for the manufacturer gives me a certain edge—I have a level of training and programming expertise not available to most dispensers and that’s an important aspect of what I offer my patients. Even if you bought your aids elsewhere, there may be something I can do to help you hear better with them!” NEW WIRELESS MULTI-PURPOSE DEVICE REALLY WORKS! “Many patients complain that they cannot hear TV well. They have to turn up the volume and their spouses (or neighbors) complain that it is too loud. New wireless technology allows effortless TV viewing by turning the hearing aids into personal headsets—it’s

They are like contact lenses for your ears, and they offer the best, most natural sound quality available in a hearing instrument. The SoundLense aids have been very well received by the public and are the most costeffective ‘invisible’ solution.” It sounds like there is a way to help anyone who wants to hear better. “Exactly, we have solutions for every type of loss and every budget!” So, what are you waiting for?

So Gary called Cool Air USA and asked about installing a new, high efficiency unit. “The technician told me exactly what size unit that would be best for my home and informed me about different options,” he says. “After I decided to go ahead, they installed my new air conditioner quickly and professionally. They also cleaned up after themselves so well I couldn’t even tell they’d been there.

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION New air conditioning units are far more efficient than older models. They save energy so a homeowner can feel good about making a positive impact on the environment, and they can also significantly lower a homeowner’s electric bills. “Air conditioning accounts for a large portion of most homeowners’ electric bills during the summer months,” says Edan Aviv, who operates Cool Air USA with partners Gil Nagar and Lior Poyastro. “A new, more efficient unit can also make a difference in comfort level because it cools more efficiently. Rebates and tax incentives may even help defray the initial cost of the unit.” WHAT’S LURKING IN THE DUCTS? Even an older air conditioner can be made more efficient and safe with regular maintenance. Cool Air USA technicians are experts at cleaning the ducts, a process that can greatly reduce indoor air pollution, as well as make the unit cool more effi-

And you also may not be aware that dirty air conditioner ducts can actually harm the quality of the air in your home.” Ducts that are not cleaned regularly can harbor dust, dirt, pollen, moisture, bacteria, and other pollutants that may increase the risk of

It is perhaps the area of this community that needs that economic infusion more than ever before. It was a struggle, but it was accomplished. What makes me think that way is we spend

much of our time speaking with the west side of the city and listening to the business owners and residents who frankly believe everything starts and stops at the railroad tracks at West Dixie Highway. They are 100 percent correct. Outside of Commissioner Bill Julian, nobody has worked harder to shine the spotlight on the west side of the city.

These exhibitions are on display through Sunday, Jan. 13, 2013, at the Center, located at 1650 Harrison St. Gallery hours are Tuesday-Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday-Sunday, 12 to 4 p.m. In her painting and drawing exhibition, Elisabeth Condon introduces the 1980s Los Angeles nightclub scene as a metaphor for personal and social transformation. The Tampa and Brooklyn-based artist approaches this landscape as a repository for individual and shared memories, associations, and cultural experiences. In their exhibition Lummox, Millree Hughes presents a selection of drawings, and Peter Boyd McLean will show a related film. The drawings are of the Lummoxes glam-rockloving hooligans that came on holiday to the little resort village of Towyn, North Wales, where Hughes grew up. The characters in the drawings are permanently fixed in their lost heyday, the 1970s, peering at the present through a haze of smoke. Hughes began these drawings in 2004, while living in New York. As the Lummoxes cavorted on the page, he imagined them forming an eponymous band. In Love on an Escalator, artists Antonia Wright and Ruben Millares kiss in public. In the video work, one sees the audience encounter the artists; they comment, laugh, look, don’t look, look away uncomfortably, and look again. In this on-going project, the simple repeated gesture of the kiss tests the rules of social conduct. Why do kids stare? Adult women sneer? Men high five? And in some situations, no one looks at all. The artists stand, staking their place in the world, ignoring judgment, and declaring love. In a society flooded with sexuality and sexual imagery, why does an innocent kiss cause such confusion? Why is this act challenging? This intimacy is too intimate live. Visual artist Rosemarie Chiarlone and poet Susan Weiner’s collaboration, Obstruction, investigates women’s struggle for authenticity through a variety of formats. The imagery is subtle, and the text is aggressive in places and restrained in others. The contrast emphasizes solitary moments, confines of time and space, and ambivalence. The work references the “glass ceiling” imposed by societal constraints, which influence female relational identity. General admission to the Center’s galleries are $7 for adults; $4 for students, seniors, and children ages 4 to 17; and free to Center members as well as children under the age of 4. For more information on these exhibitions, please call 954.921.3274 or visit ArtandCultureCenter.org.

How can any community tell the merchants that do business and drive potential traffic into their city, that they cannot host promotional events on their property? No city I have ever heard would ever do that. It makes no sense at all. Not in this economy. Not when businesses are closing at a record pace.

fice, I spoke with many who live in the Northwest and the western parts of the community who were concerned that they were being left out of the mix when it comes to highlighting businesses and special events." For those of you know me, fully understand that NOBODY wants this community to work more than I do. My entire life has been wrapped around this city, so if I hurt feelings, trying to make sure that the entire city is included, so be it. I have much bigger concerns in my life than worry about who I have offended. Especially when that person(s) has so little invested here. Last year, some businesses attempted to bring food trucks to the parking lot of a West Hallandale Beach shopping mall – with the idea of exposing the other businesses. It turned out to be something that many had hoped it would grow from. That never happened. The organizers of the event were told that permitting would only be issued twice a year by the city. What? That was one of the weakest attempts at being lazy I had ever heard. How can any community tell the merchants that do business and drive potential traffic into their city, that they cannot host promotional events on their property. No city I have ever heard would ever do that. It makes no sense at all. Not in this economy. Not when businesses are closing at a record pace. I want to get back to what has made Commissioner Julian special in all of this. Here is someone who has lived

in this community longer than any of the combined commission. He fully comprehends what the meaning of every corner of the city means. He is always willing to stand up to make sure that everyone is counted, and that to all of us, is what the true meaning of representing your city is. Dealing with so many cities throughout this region, I am often pointing out how festivals and other crowd-attracting events are the backbone of these communities. Many of these cities embrace their local businesses, hosting property-boosting things to stay above water – financially. They would never put a limit on what they can host in the name of keeping their businesses going. The South Florida Sun Times has gone as far as offering free publicity and free coverage – with photos that appear on the internet, Facebook and in the publication every Thursday – to those who run events. That is what we do. We

have promoted all the communities since the day we opened!

POTENTIAL EVENTS I have probably gone over this many times, but every weekend, there should be something going on. Hallandale Beach has to be known on the same level as other surrounding communities who offer art shows, antique car shows, taste of the city (highlighting great restaurants), music, flea markets and just about anything else to get people on to the properties all over the city.

If the City of Hallandale Beach has a minimum of permitted events, they should change that immediately. If not, and residents have to wait 10 minutes in line for a burrito once a month in the parking lot of city hall, the economic decline will continue and our local businesses will continue to fade away, and that would be a shame! Have something to add to this column, and I certainly hope you do, drop Larry Blustein a note at sfsuntimes@aol.com.

Holocaust Documentation & Education Center, Inc. looking for Holocaust era artifacts

At first glance it’s just an old photograph. A little girl holds her father’s hand as they walk through the park. But take another look, and it is so much more. Rita Hofrichter and her father had a special relationship. “He was a wonderful father; we enjoyed each other’s company. He took me with him everywhere,” Rita says of her father, “I was a tomboy and he wanted me to be a proper lady.” The photo captures a moment in the special bond between a father and daughter, and a moment in history before their lives would be forever changed. Rita was born in Lodz, Poland. After the Nazi occupation of Poland, she and her family were forced to move to the Warsaw ghetto. During the Warsaw ghetto uprising, she and her father escaped to the Aryan side. Rita was placed in a convent and her father joined a fighting partisan unit, where he was killed in action. “He helped a lot of people to escape from the ghetto.” This photograph is just one of thousands that are part of the Holocaust Documentation & Education Center’s (HDEC) collection and will be featured in the South Florida Holocaust Museum, which is currently in the planning

stages for the HDEC’s new location in Dania Beach. Rita, who donated this precious photograph along with others and some important documents, explained why it was important to her to donate them to the museum, “I want to preserve the memory of my family and the Holocaust and I felt that by donating them, they could do more to teach the lessons of the Holocaust than inside an

album in my home.” She recognizes that it can be hard to part with such cherished items, but Rita does not regret her choice, “I felt it was much more important that the story is told and documented, because there are many Holocaust deniers and denial and antisemitism are on the rise.” With plans to move to Dania Beach, the HDEC is ramping up its efforts to collect memorabilia even more. “It is

a critical time both for the museum and in the lives of many Survivors,” explains HDEC President Rositta Kenigsberg, “We want people to know, particularly Survivors, that their precious items, alongside their testimonies, will tell their story for generations to come and their message of Never Again will be remembered. The HDEC urges Survivors, Liberators, and Rescuers to donate their items, whether in the form of photographs, documents, clothing, or other items, so that they will stay right here in South Florida and be a part of our Holocaust Museum. They will be used to educate future generations about the historical events of the Holocaust, as well as the universal lessons of prejudice, hated, and intolerance.” Today, the HDEC’s extensive memorabilia collection includes: photographs, letters, postcards, work permits, falsified documents, religious objects, Nazi guns, Nazi regalia & flags, and a large map collection, as well as a rescued Torah from Czechoslovakia, camp

uniforms, a U.S. Liberator’s uniform, and a recently restored rail car. Negotiations to acquire a U.S. Sherman tank are in the works as well. If you or someone you

know is interested in donating Holocaust era artifacts to become a part of our South Florida Holocaust Museum collection, please give us a call at (954) 929 5690 ext202, or email

The magnetic field turns on activating ions and charged particles bringing in nutrients influencing things like blood cell supply opening up blood cells. You don’t just feel better

AVOID JOINT REPLACEMENT SURGERY WITH THE MAP PEMF THERAPY RECOMMENDED BY DR. OZ

Chronic pain is debilitating, and quickly erodes quality of life. Now, a new medical technology allows many patients suffering from back or joint pain to avoid surgery and return to the activities and lifestyles they enjoyed previously. Map PEMF Therapy is a painless noninvasive method of delivering a pioneering new branch of an invisible treatment that provides a revolutionary cure you were waiting for. A rapid acceleration which recovers and restores a pain-free lifestyle. The treatment works on all joint problems, tears, sprains, fractures and repetitive injuries such as carpel tunnel, arthritis, and osteoarthritis. What’s truly amazing about MAP PEMF Therapy is that it actually regrows cartilage as well as increases bone density. It has been used by thousands of people, including many professional athletes. MAP PEMF Therapy can help patients avoid hip and knee replacements and provide rapid alternative recovery methods. It is now available at the Joint and Muscle Treatement Center in Hallandale

Beach.

HOW IT WORKS If you have ever held two magnets in your hands, tried to force them together, and felt a resistance between them, then you have experienced a magnetic field. PEMF stands for Pulsed ElectroMagnetic Fields, which are widely used these days to improve circulation and cell metabolism. The body can become accustomed to nonmoving (or static) magnetic fields, which are generally unable to deeply penetrate the body. A pulsed electromagnetic field, however, is quite dynamic, is able to penetrate all the way through the body, and creates a cascade of effects within the body. The MAP PEMF Therapy uses moving magnets creating an energy wave which

you are better. The cost is far less than surgery, and patients avoid the long recovery times and possible side effects associated with surgery.

Dr. OZ talks about PEMF therapy

Dr. OZ introduces a breakthrough way to heal pain using Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields. Also known as PEMF therapy, this method of healing has been widely used in Switzerland for over 15 years. It’s a technology that had been developed for the Russian Space program to help prohibit the bone loss that the cosmonauts suffered when they were in space and away from the earths magnetic fields. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL1_U1rZig&feature=plcp

Treatment helps patients avoid hip and knee replacements and provide rapid alternative recovery methods at the Joint and Muscle Treatment Center in Hallandale Beach.

changes the way your body copes with pain. The electrical magnets affect the nerve cells which are electrical cells and the magnetic fields affect how the nerves fire and quiet them down without using drugs increasing circulation in the area and aid the healing. Inside the

Avoid Pain and Joint Replacement Surgery With Revolutionary Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Treatment - No Drugs, No Surgery, No Pain Patient Benefits: • Greatly Speed the healing process • Reduce or eradicate Chronic and Acute Pain • Chronic and Acute Low Back, Hip, Knee and Neck Pain or deficiencies • Avoid Joint Replacement Surgery • Orthopedic Injuries • Fibromyalgia • Myofascial Pain • Tendon and Ligament repair • Reduces swelling and inflammation • Releases muscle trigger points • Improves soft tissue regeneration Electro Muscle Stimulation changes muscle tissue, softens or eradicates scar tissue, and increases circulation with the effect of removing long stored waste products and increasing cellular metabolism. The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology uses micro impulses, which induce neuropeptides secretion by primarily C nerve fibers that have profound and wideranging effects, triggering complex regulative chains and cascades. Multiple biochemical pathways utilizing many types of neuro-mediators, hormones, and cytokines are involved. Although peptide half-life in body fluids is relatively short, other mediators in the cascades survive for many hours. Some regulatory peptides act on genomic activity to alter gene expression and change biochemical synthesis. Our device’s electrical signals can reprogram tissues locked into chronic vegetative and dysfunctional states by inducing bolus synthesis of regulatory peptides (RP). On a neurological level, widely dispersed un-meylienated C-fibers compromising 85 percent of all nerve fibers are effected locally by the Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology signal. C-fibers are responsible for slow diffuse pain signaling and are also neuro-secretory. Neuropeptides (NPs) are secreted into the surrounding tissue milieu by their exocytosis through vesicle membrane fusion with the cell membrane similar to neuro-transmitter secretion. The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology impulses also are relayed through afferent neural pathways to the CNS and give rise to various 1) Segmental spinal reflexes by efferent signals sent from the cord to organs associated with that segment or back to the local tissue receiving the impulse. 2) Systemic reactions such as endorphin induction by efferent signals descending from the cortical and subcortical areas of the brain i.e. pain reduction. The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology impulses have a direct effect on blood perfusion. Clinically observable and well-defined increases in tissue perfusion at the treated areas are due to neuropeptide-induced vasodilatation, particularly Substance P. A combination of device-induced axon reflexes also releases other vaso-active substances such as kinins, prostaglandins, cytokines, and nitric oxide. The end result is that blood flow to a treated area is significantly increased. Other neuropeptides and endocrine secretions released by device’s impulses mediate inflammation. Complement fixation and tissue injuries due to immune aggression are suppressed, and cellular immunity is enhanced by macrophage proliferation, activation, chemotaxis, and clearance of extracellular debris. The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology has redefined existing technology with novel waveforms, unique circuitry, and clean signaling. Signaling is focused and intensified for narrow applications or is expanded with unique signaling combinations and frequency ranges for increased therapeutic flexibility. Compared with the earlier Russian electro-stimulation devices, The Pro Biofeedback MicroCurrent Technology generates clean and more precisely defined wave forms and possesses both newer (patent pending) settings that expand clinical versatility and vastly improved operational reliability. The Pro Bio-feedback technology is proven to be convenient, safe, and effective and has been cleared by the FDA and other governing bodies for pain relief.

Make your child's shots less stressful NewsUSA) - Vaccines help protect babies and young children against 14 serious diseases. Even though you are keeping her safe from diseases, it's hard to see your child cry when she gets her shots. But you can take some steps before, during and after a vaccine visit to ease the pain and stress of getting shots. Read about the shots your child will get in advance. Bring your child's vaccine record to show the doctor. Pack a favorite toy, book, blanket or other comfort item. For older children, be honest -- shots can pinch or sting, but not for long. Remind them that shots help keep them healthy. Ask your child's doctor any questions you have about vaccines. You may even want to ask about cooling or numbing the area of your child's arm or leg before the shots. Distract your child with a toy, a story, a song or something interesting in the room. Make eye contact with your child and smile, talk softly or sing. Hold your child tightly on your lap if you can. Take deep breaths with an older child to help "blow out"

soreness or swelling from the shot, place a clean, cool washcloth on the area. If your child runs a fever, try a cool sponge bath. You can also use a non-aspirin pain reliever if your doctor says it's OK. Some children eat less, sleep more or act fussy for a

day after they get shots. Make sure your child gets plenty to drink. If you're worried about anything, call your doctor. "Shots can be stressful," said Dr. Wharton. "But you can ease your child's discomfort. And keeping your child up to

date on vaccines is the best way to protect against vaccine-preventable diseases."

Conquer Healthy Goals in 4 Steps

(NewsUSA) - Setting healthy goals is a great way to promote your own well-being by lowering your risk of conditions like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity and more. But that's sometimes easier said than done. After all, have you ever caught yourself saying, "I'm going to get in shape this year by exercising more and eating healthier"? As it turns out, the Huffington Post reports that about 100 million Americans make resolutions every year, but only 45 percent follow through with them. Setting health goals isn't simply about buying into a new health fad. You have to take the proper steps to ensure that you follow through. Here are some steps to help make your objectives doable: Step 1. Make several small goals rather than one lofty goal. Big goals can motivate some, but they're also overwhelming. If a certain goal seems unattainable, find ways to scale it down to make it more manageable. Try setting monthly goals that work toward the big picture -- whether for weight loss, an ideal size, exercise routines or healthier home-cooking. Step 2. Buddy up. Setting goals with a friend makes it easier to stick to them. If you're both relying on each other, you'll be less likely to back out or quit altogether. Partner up with a friend or family member with the same goals as you, then work together to make them happen. Step 3. Give yourself a break. To make your goal more fail-proof, don't set it up to be too difficult to achieve. Be realistic. If your goal is to eat healthier, don't make every food you enjoy off limits. Everything is better in moderation. Step 4. Establish a support system. Failure is more likely if the people around you are pressuring you and tempting you to fail. Make sure your friends and family are on board with your goals and lifestyle changes to ensure they won't try to steer you down the wrong path.

NEW GOALS ARE A GREAT WAY TO GAIN LIFELONG HEALTH (www.lifelonghealth.com) and lower your risk of disease. Healthy choices can be made any day, any time, so if you find yourself falling short, start again.

Mount Sinai to host first ever Alzheimer’s Public Education Forum

MIAMI BEACH - Mount Sinai’s Wien Center for Alzheimer’s Disease and Memory Disorders will host their first ever public education forum on the prevention of Alzheimer’s disease. The public forum is a new addition to the ongoing medical symposium hosted by the Wien Center that is now entering its eleventh year – the Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) Syposium -, which welcomes neurological medical experts from around the world to gather and share new information about advances in research related to the clinical diagnosis and progression of Alzheimer’s disease. The public education forum will be held on Sunday, January 20th, from 2:00 p.m. – 5:30 p.m. at the Miami Beach Resort and Spa located at 4833 Collins Avenue. Attendance is free. The forum was created to present members of the community who have an interest in Alzheimer’s disease with the most up-to-date information on the biology of the disease, treatment options and the plans for launching three new clinical trials designed to prevent the development of Alzheimer’s . “People with MCI are at increased risk for progressing to Alzheimer’s or dementia,” said Dr. Ranjan Duara, Mount Sinai Medical Director for the Wien Center and host of the public educational forum. “The information shared at our public forum can be a tremendous benefit to those who may be at risk, or have family members at risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.” Medical experts from around the country will discuss various topics related to Alzheimer’s disease and be on hand to interact with the audience. Dr. Susan Landau, research scientist at the Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute at the University of California, Berkeley, will kick off the forum with a discussion on the relationship between aging and mild cognitive impairment. Dr. Reisa Sperling, Director of the Center for Alzheimer's Research and Treatment at Massachusetts General Hospital, will follow with a presentation on how to treat Alzheimer’s before symptoms begin. Dr. Allan Levy, professor and chair of the department of neurology at Emory University School of Medicine will discuss what we know about the genetics of Alzheimer’s disease. The program will conclude with Dr. Maria Carrillo, outreach specialist from the National Alzheimer’s Association, who will present information on three new clinical trials that will study the prevention of symptomatic Alzheimer’s disease among individuals who are at elevated risk. All medical experts will be available for a panel discussion and answer audience questions. To register for the Mount Sinai Alzheimer’s Public Education Forum, visit www.mcisymposium.org/forum or call Julia Salas at 305-674-2121, ext. 54461.

Is snoring more than just a sleep problem?

(NewsUSA) - Do you have a partner that constantly complains about your snoring? Do you wake up feeling fatigued even though you slept all night long? If so, you may have more than a noise complaint on your hands. Snoring is no laughing matter. In fact, 50 to 60 percent of people who snore have a condition called obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which can be life-threatening if left untreated. This was the case for Geoff Malecha, a retired computer professional. For most of his adult life, Geoff maintained a strict workout regimen and was quite healthy. A few years ago, his wife, Cassie, began to notice something alarming in Geoff's sleeping patterns. He would frequently snore and even stop breathing during sleep. As the situation progressed, Geoff would often choke in his sleep and awaken in a panic, gasping for breath. According to the American Sleep Apnea Association (ASAA), one of the main signs of OSA may be a complaint by your bed partner that you snore loudly or that you stop breathing repeatedly while you're asleep. "That choking and gasping really got my attention," Geoff said. "It finally got me to finally see a physician about what was happening." Then, the answer was delivered. While reviewing the results of his sleep study, Geoff was told that he stopped breathing a total of 125 times per hour. Obstructive sleep apnea doesn't just

leave you tired from a non-restful night of sleep. When you stop breathing, your heart beats faster, raising your blood pressure and increasing your chances of heart attack and stroke. Insufficient sleep can affect your job performance and ability to perform basic functions, like driving a car. "My doctor recommended I begin continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment," Geoff recalled. The respiratory therapist fitted Geoff with a mask, and soon Geoff found himself waking up in the morning feeling like a new person. From then on, Geoff committed himself to using his CPAP device every night for a better night's sleep. "One of my main concerns when diagnosed with sleep apnea was how I would feel (or my wife might feel) having a mask on my face, hooked by a tube to a machine for the rest of my life. But because it has worked so well for both of us, my wife and I have accepted the device and have adapted our lives to in-

clude it. I take it everywhere because I do not want to try to sleep anywhere without it. It is just like brushing my teeth and putting on my pajamas," said Geoff. "I sleep better because he sleeps better," said Cassie. I don't wake up during the night because he's choking or not breathing or making strange gasping sounds. That used to be awful and made me really anxious. I don't think I ever really got into a deep sleep because I was always worried about whether Geoff was breathing. Now I have peace of mind about my husband's health, and I sleep much better as a result." Sleep apnea is not complicated. It is an easily managed condition that won't slow you down. Being motivated to better your health is essential in your journey to a restful night's sleep. For more information on sleep apnea symptoms and solutions, visit www.WakeUptoSleep.org.

Hallandale Beach has transformed Layne Boulevard, N.E. 8th Avenue and N.E. 10th Avenue into bicycle-friendly neighborhoods, narrowing

roads to slow traffic and add bicycle lanes. “We had under-utilized streets, so we tried (restriping),” said City Engineer Richard Labinsky of the low-

cost change to the roadways. Layne Boulevard originally was planned to be a connector road between Hallandale Beach Boulevard and

MLK WEEKEND It begins with a high-end fashion show and dinner, and culminates with the annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Parade and Festival

An elegant, high-end fashion show and dinner will open the annual Community Civic Association and City of Hallandale Beach Dr. Martin Luther Jr., weekend, 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 19, at the Cultural Community Center, 410 S.E. 3rd Street. The weekend culminates Monday, Jan. 21, with the annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Parade and Festival, beginning at 10 a.m. Models will walk the runway in the latest creations of three South Florida fashion designers at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Scholarship Gala on Saturday. The scholarship dinner raised funds for Hallandale Beach youth to attend college. Tickets for the gala are $40 and can be obtained by contacting Delvis Rogers, 954-549-7214. Past scholarship winners have earned degrees in education, business and in other areas of study. Several scholarship winners are teaching in the area. The Gala will begin with a reception at 4 p.m., with dinner at 6 p.m. followed by the fashion show. The centerpiece of the weekend is the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Parade and Festival. The parade will begin at B.F. James Park, head south on N.W. 2nd Avenue, to Hallandale Beach Boulevard, then west to N.W. 8th Avenue, then north to O.B. Johnson Park. The parade steps off at 10 a.m. Parade participants will begin lining up at 9 a.m. All roads along the parade route will be closed to all traffic on Monday morning from 10 a.m. until noon. Westbound Hallandale Beach Boulevard will be closed to all traffic between Dixie Highway and N.W. 8th Avenue from 10 a.m. to noon. Traffic will be directed around the parade route. More than 10 bands and entertainers will begin performing at O.B. Johnson Park at noon. Among those scheduled to perform are National recording artist Cherrelle, Shonie, Zipporiah, Brandi of the R&B group Blaque, and C-Bone. Also, recording artists Que, TP9, Jada Blaza, Elhae, 2cute Ohginelle, Tjuan Karena Clarke and several local artists are planning performances during the five-hour MLK Festival. Entrance to the festival is free, but there is a cost for the carnival-style rides and food.

FLOOD MITIGATION AND N.E. DRAINAGE

An updated five-year Hallandale Beach Flood Plain Management Plan and plans for the new Northeast Quadrant drainage improvement plan will be unveiled at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 22, at the Cultural Community Center, 410 S.E. 3rd Street. Residents throughout the City are encouraged to attend. The new flood plain management plan updates the 2007 plan approved by the City Commission. The plan encourages the City to continue finding ways to use open space for drainage and encourage developers to develop property responsibly, using more space for water percolation. One way the City is addressing the flood problem is through the Northeast Quadrant stormwater improvement project. The project, which will begin this spring, includes the placement of larger capacity drainage pipes and diverting stormwater into deep wells. At present, stormwater flows into the Intracoastal Waterway.

Miami-Dade County. The connection with Miami-Dade County was abandoned after the four-lane road was constructed. The four lanes provided more capacity than was needed. N.E. 8th Avenue and N.E. 10th Avenue were two-lane, oneway streets between East Hallandale Beach Boulevard and Atlantic Shores Boulevard. N.E. 8th Avenue is a southbound roadway; N.E. 10th Avenue was one-way northbound. “All cities are looking at ways to add bi-

cycle paths,” Mr. Labinsky said. The City initiated a sixmonth test period for Layne Boulevard. The City engineering division plans to hold a community meeting this spring gage the success of the test period. If the residents approve of the project, additional steps will be taken to make the lanes permanent. The goal in all the conversions is to make the areas more pedestrian and bicycle-friendly. Also, it encourages residents to exercise more, walking or riding.

The restriping has a residual effect of slowing traffic because there is only one lane in each direction. To slow traffic in other areas, engineers and residents have discussed adding traffic calming devices, speed bumps, in the Southeast Quadrant. Plans are being completed for traffic calming between on S.E. 2nd Street and East Hallandale Beach Boulevard on S.E. 3rd Avenue and S.E. 4th Avenue.

Food Truck Friday was a huge success

First Fridays on Federal was a huge success at Hallandale Beach City Hall on Friday, Jan. 4. A program of the Hallandale Beach Parks and Recreation Department in cooperation with BurgerBeast Sef Gonzalez, First Fridays on Federal will bring together up to 20 gourmet food trucks from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. on the first Friday of each month. If you missed the first one, the next is planned for Friday, Feb. 1, at City Hall, 400 S. Federal Highway. At the first food truck rally, top photo, Michele Perez, left, and Joseph Duenas, sample the fare. Meanwhile, a large crowd gathers around one truck in the bottom photo. Italian, Mexican, Venezuelan and American servings were topped off with pastries, shaved ice and ice cream, from 20 food truck operators from Broward and Miami-Dade counties.

Home Cooking May Help Prevent Childhood Obesity

(NewsUSA) - Studies suggest home-cooked meals could help against the swell of childhood obesity -- a problem that has tripled among children and adolescents. The health consequences are already emerging. Critical diseases, like Type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cancer, are more prevalent among kids. Even though homemade meals can help curtail childhood obesity, busy parents feel like they don't always have time to prepare healthy dinners. Tracie McMillan, the bestselling author of "The American Way of Eating," observes that, as a result of such stresses, some parents think of cooking as a chore. But thanks to meal solutions -- such as pre-made sauces and marinades -- that are available in today's supermarkets, homemade meals can be easy, delicious and gratifying to make. More than ever, it is

This will make it easier to decide what to make each night. "It creates a routine," says Chef LaLa, "but allows parents to be

creative at the same time. For Taco Tuesday, this week it might be beef tacos, next week make the 'tacos' with lettuce wraps instead. Have fun with it!" Have fun, yes, and improve your family's health at the same time. Try Chef LaLa's chicken lettuce wraps for this week's family dinner:

snack that is fat- and cholesterol-free. They are also a good source of potassium and fiber. In fact, a quarter cup of raisins is a whole serving of fruit. Try out this fun raisin recipe for a filling afterschool snack that doubles as a fun art activity from www.loveyourraisins.com.

Spicing up Cold-Weather Desserts With Spirits

(NewsUSA) - Talk about a dessert that hits the spot -- especially as the weather turns chillier. You've heard of "pairing," right? Well, in shaking up the concept's traditional definition -- matching wines to dishes they most complement -- innovative chefs are now using spirits like cognac to create even more tempting culinary experiences. Cognac's spicy and aromatic characteristics have always made for perfect drinking this time of year. But when Camus VS Elegance cognac (www.camus.fr) specifically is used as one of two "surprise ingredients" in this recipe for Coconut Snowballs, well, now you've got something really special. "Camus pairs well with the creaminess of the coconut and actually enhances its flavor and the overall fruitiness of the dessert," Joshua Gripper, the executive pastry chef at the trendy W Hotel and Resort in Miami Beach, Florida, says of his creation, which he likes to serve after duck. "It gives a nice flow to the senses, and can also be enjoyed while sipping a Camus VS cognac on the rocks." Oh, the other surprise ingredient? Ladyfingers, which -- covered over as they are by the coconut -- add their own "hidden dimension, flavor and texture." COCONUT SNOWBALL 1 hour prep and overnight freeze • Servings: Makes 1 snowball CUSTARD INGREDIENTS: 1 1/4 cups coconut milk • 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar • 2 egg yolks Combine all the ingredients in a small pot, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Cook on medium-low heat while stirring constantly until the custard thickens slightly. Strain the custard and allow it to cool at room temperature. While the custard is cooling, start making the mousse. MOUSSE INGREDIENTS: 2 cups heavy cream (whipped) • 14 ounces white chocolate • 1 ounce Camus cognac • 2 gelatin sheets Whip the heavy cream with a whisk until it forms medium-stiff peaks. Melt the white chocolate over a double boiler. Soak the gelatin sheets in ice water until it's softened (5 minutes), and strain the gelatin to remove any excess liquid. Add the gelatin to the Camus cognac and melt them together (30 seconds at a time). Add the cognac to the custard, stir in the white chocolate, and mix until completely smooth. Fold in the heavy cream. Place the mousse in an airtight container and refrigerate overnight. ASSEMBLY: 4 ounces pineapple juice • 1 ounce Camus cognac • 3 ladyfinger cookies • 1/2 cup shredded coconut • 1/4 cup diced pineapple (garnish) • 2 leaves fresh cilantro (garnish) • 1/4 cup coconut milk (garnish) • 1 tablespoon olive oil (garnish)

Combine 4 ounces of pineapple juice with 1 ounce of Camus cognac. Cut 3 ladyfingers in half and dip quickly in the pineapple juice. Using a 4-ounce scoop, position the mousse onto a sheet of parchment paper. Place the ladyfingers in the middle of the mousse. Place the mousse in the freezer for 30 minutes (or until firm). When the mousse is firm but pliable, roll it into a ball, and coat it in shredded coconut. Place the snowball in the refrigerator and start the final plating -positioning the snowball in the middle of an attractive plate or bowl, garnishing the dish with diced pineapple, cilantro leaves, coconut milk and a little olive oil.
