CPR course at Boca Regional Hospital helps babysitter save toddler’s life

Bluegreen Corp-oration celebrates 20 years in Boca Raton

BOCA RATON – In scenes reminiscent of 2004 and 2005, Boca Ra-ton and area residents spent the past few days filling gas cans, testing generators, buying pro-pane tanks, attaching shutters and stocking up on batteries, food and wa-ter in anticipation of the first hurricane to threaten the area since Wilma in 2005.

Hurricane Irene, a strong and expansive storm, has been heading north from the Caribbean, but shifting east since its original track that put the east coast of South Flori-da in the “cone of error.” It appeared by mid-week that Irene might barely touch Florida.

But residents, emer-gency agencies, police and fire units were not taking any chances.

County contractor to conduct sea turtle monitoring

Under a contract with Palm Beach County through its Department of Environ-mental Resources Manage-ment, Inwater Research Group began monitor-ing sea turtles in the Lake Worth Lagoon this week.

The project will evaluate the size and health of the la-goon’s sea turtle population as part of a baseline study initiated in 2006.

Sea turtles function as an indicator species for envi-ronmental health much like a canary in the coal mine. The results of the study have im-portant implications for the overall health of the lagoon.

The study consists pri-

marily of turtle captures by setting a large-mesh tangle net. When a turtle encoun-ters the net, researchers quickly remove it and take measurements and a blood sample. Most of the sea turtle captures will occur near Munyon Island in the northern end of the lagoon.

Previous capture events indicate that mostly juvenile green sea turtles utilize the lagoon for a portion of their life cycle.

The study is funded by a grant from the Sea Tur-tle Conservancy (STC), a not-for-profit organization dedicated to ensuring the survival of sea turtles with-

in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and Caribbean Sea through research, educa-tion, training, advocacy, and protection of the reptiles’ natural habitats.

STC is responsible for awarding grants with mon-ey raised through the pur-chase of sea turtle license plates. These grants are crit-ical for the continued success of Palm Beach County’s sea turtle research and outreach program.

For information about purchasing a sea turtle li-cense plate, visit www.flhsmv.gov/dmv/special-tytags/environmental/sea_turtle.html

The Emergency Op-erations Center in West Palm Beach was staffed and monitoring the storm’s progress. So was the School District, an-ticipating it might have to cancel classes.

One person who called to the Boca Raton Tribune reported he was unable to find gasoline in West Boca on Monday night. Additional tankers were reportedly heading this way to refill reserves at stations where residents stocked up in advance of

the storm.On supermarket

shelves, water seemed scarce and, at one Publix, milk that does not need refrigeration was gone completely.

The pace of prepara-tion seemed to slow down as the week progressed and it appeared the storm might just skirt Florida.

"We've got a lot of time for people to get ready, but we don't have forever," said Craig Fu-gate, who heads the Fed-eral Emergency Manage-ment Agency, during a briefing Tuesday.

The current track fore-cast takes the storm inland up the North Carolina and Virginia coasts and onto the Delmarva Peninsula Sunday morning.

Federal forecasters monitoring Irene have been cautioning that the accuracy of their track forecasts can be off by as much as 250 miles five days out. Even so, "a little deviation in the track" can have a significant impact on the storm's effect on the coast, Fugate said.

The Christian Science Monitor contributed to this story.

CPR course at Boca Regional Hospital helps babysitter save toddler’s lifeBOCA RATON –

When people take a CPR training course, they of-ten wonder if they will ever be called on to use it.

For Boynton Beach resident, Talisha Tor-res, a 24-year-old teacher at Manatee Elementary School in Lake Worth, that answer came a lot sooner than she expected.

Talisha credits the training she received through the “Family and Friends” cardiopulmo-nary resuscitation pro-gram at BRRH for help-ing her save the life of a toddler left in her care for babysitting.

Education is the key to prevention. Or, at least that’s what Posie Whelan thought when she asked family friend, Talisha, to take the CPR course. Talisha works part time for the family as a nanny

over the summer months, babysitting the family’s 13-month-old son, Chris-topher. She completed the CPR training class this past May.

The class teaches par-ents, grandparents and babysitters how to handle life-threatening situa-tions in infants, toddlers and children, which in-cludes the infant Heim-lich maneuver.

While Talisha was babysitting the toddler, Christopher began chok-ing when a green bean lodged in his windpipe during his feeding. When Talisha noticed he was struggling to breathe, she immediately began to ad-minister the infant Heim-lich maneuver.

She whisked the baby out of his highchair and slung him downward on her knee and hit him five

times on the back, just as she was instructed to do back in May. The green bean was finally dislodged and she was relieved when she heard him crying and breath-ing properly. This was the first time she had ever used the maneuver.

Talisha credits her recent CPR/Heimlich training for providing her with the knowledge and the confidence to act quickly and correctly in what could have been a life-threatening situation.

“People don’t know that with infants and tod-dlers the CPR/ Heimlich procedure is performed differently,” said Talisha “I would not have known to place the baby over the knee had I not taken the class. I’m just amazed that I remembered what to do. The incident all happened

so quickly and under such a desperate situation, all the training comes back to you.”

Posie Whelan, who works for Brian Bernick, MD, an obstetrics/ gyne-cologist on staff at Boca Raton Regional Hospi-tal, praised the hospital’s CPR course. “Talisha kept her head and stayed cool. I’m really proud of her.”

The evening class was taught by American Heart Association CPR instructors Nicole Holo-boff and Richard Alva-rez. Ironically Richard is Talisha’s cousin. “It’s strange how all things were set in motion for me to take this class,” she said. “It was almost like it was destiny.”

BRRH offers the Fam-ily and Friends CPR class-es at 6 p.m. every Wednes-

MATT PINEDA

I know I frequently talk about my wife in these columns. Some-times, it’s just to kid her while at other times, she is an integral part of what the column is about.

This time, she is very integral. Years ago, she became a follower of the TV show, “Dancing with the Stars.” The program has caught fire with mil-lions of TV viewers over the years, becoming to dance what “American Idol” is to song.

Four years ago, as part of Boca Festival Days, the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Com-merce created “Boca’s Ballroom Battle,” a local production patterned af-ter DWTS. It was, and still is, a fundraiser for the George Snow Schol-arship Fund.

My wife has been en-couraging me to get tick-ets every year since the program began. She is not just a fan of dancing, but was a professional dancer and teacher for the Arthur Murray Stu-dios.

Coincidentally, the dancers for the local event were also provided by a professional school.

Well, when I told my wife I got the tickets this year, she was ecstatic.

Since we had never attended, we didn’t know what to expect. What we saw was as terrific as we hoped – probably much more so.

We were sitting with Flossy Keesely who re-membered that during the first Boca Ballroom Battle, only about 100 people showed up. The event last Saturday at the Boca Raton Resort & Club drew a crowd of some 750. It was a won-derful showing, particu-larly because this is still summer and “season” is a ways off.

I particularly enjoyed the fact that the organiz-ers were able to bring one of the professionals from “Dancing with the Stars” to be a judge at the contest. Chelsie Hight-ower, who has been part of the on- stage troupe in Hollywood for about five seasons, was there in Boca Raton Saturday night. She joined other judges Babette Brown, Ioana Grigore and Dan Guin.

Those who put their feet on the line for the Snow Scholarship Fund

were philanthropist and businesswoman Yvonne Boice; plastic and recon-structive surgeon Dr. Rafael Cabrera; Ralph Mesa, executive manag-er of Mercedes-Benz of Delray; Pat Thomas, a local “volunteer extraor-dinaire”; Ingrid Fulmer, an executive VP with Coldwell Banker Com-mercial; Bryan Tindell, co-owner with his wife of a fitness salon in Boca Raton and South Florida director of disposal for Waste Management Inc.; Jackie Reeves, managing director of Bell Rock

Capital and Jay DiPi-etro, president/COO/general manager of Boca West Country Club.

Training the novices were Patrick Alonsagay, Pam Casanave and Mari-ya-Khristina Shurupova, Ivan Rivera and Sayra Vazquez from the Fred Astaire Dance Studios Boca Raton.

Mesa and Shurupo-va proved it takes two to tango. Boice and Alonsagay offered up a fine and fancy fox-trot. Thomas cha-cha’d with Rivera and Fulmer (who brought along her daughter, Kendra, a re-markable singer) held

the audience spellbound as she waltzed with Alonsagay.

Next came Tindell, buff from his business, who joined Casanave for a jive that made the floor come alive. Reeves was ready to rumba with Ri-vera.

Then came Cabrera, who proved he was truly a cutup. He appeared on stage in a shirt open to the waist. His sexy salsa with Shurupova had the audience on their feet.

Then came the suave Mr. DiPietro, whose top hat and cane cabaret/ quick step with Casa-nave brought raves from all sections of the audi-ence.

There were winners that night in the Mizner Center at the Boca Re-sort. But the real winner was the George Snow Scholarship Foundation. Just the eight commu-nity leaders who danced their hearts out that night raised more than $211,000.

It was truly a night of excitement. It should hold my wife over until “Dancing with the Stars” begins its new season next month.

autumn in New England.I’m from New York so I can understand how you

feel.

THOUGHTS FROM THE PUBLISHER

The headline on my col-umn today is a translation of a Portuguese phrase that is just as important and just as relevant in Bra-zil, the USA – or any other country.

Without advertising, no business can survive. That’s probably a more frank observation of the marketplace than some people want to hear, but it’s a fact.

If people don’t know that a business exists, how can it expect to draw cus-tomers? Word of mouth only works for a short time and often brings in a few people.

I’ve alluded in the past to the need for advertising in the newspaper business, and how publications like the Boca Raton Tribune can carry information about business into the homes of residents throughout the area in a way no other me-dia can.

I’m mentioning this now because I spent some time the last few days going through shopping plazas and past businesses that I have visited during the past year and a half of the Tri-bune’s existence. I dropped by to say hello and, early on, pitched the Tribune as the “new kid on the block” that was looking to branch out and give them exposure to homes they had virtually no other way of reaching.

Later, as the newspaper became known, I revisited these places and told them that our grasp was now much greater than in the past, and I continued to

urge them to advertise.Some helped out and

purchased ads. Some wouldn’t part with a single dime.

These past few days, I have noticed the large num-ber of vacant storefronts around the area, places that once bustled with shop-pers; restaurants that once overflowed with hungry customers, and shops with shiny fixtures and lots of shoppers sometimes lined up in front before the doors were even open.

Many of these stores and restaurants are gone. Certainly, the economy has taken a toll. But would some of these retailers still be around if they had pur-chased advertising, not just in the Boca Raton Tribune, but in any publication that serves the area?

We are not the only medium in which business people can advertise. But we have certainly built up clout since we first hit the streets as a print product in March of 2010.

I learned a lot about the minds of business op-erators during the past 18 months. One major mis-conception that I want to dispel is the idea that buy-ing one ad will bring in a flock of shoppers.

That’s not necessarily true. You need a business plan to make your adver-tising work. You need to place ads on a regular basis so your operation can take advantage of the frequency of publication. People can easily miss a single ad, but if you feature your busi-

ness in several editions – as many as you want – you have a better chance of be-ing seen.

Thousands of eyes scan the Boca Raton Tribune each week. Not just the peo-ple who pick it up at a store or take one out of a news-paper box. The papers get passed around. Those that end up in medical offices can be perused by people over and over again each day.

It’s not easy convinc-ing some business people to buy advertising. But the matter is simple. If stores and restaurants buy ads, it will help them prosper.

And by putting money into our operation here at the Boca Raton Tribune, it guarantees a steady flow of news and ads into the com-munity.

Buying an ad – or a se-ries of them – is a better strategy than not open-ing your wallet and taking some of your space for a few weeks. You’re bound to make a big difference.

We can’t do anything more for those firms that have had to shutter their windows and lock their doors. But you, the busi-ness person in the com-munity right now, you have survived the worst of this recession. You have beaten the financial odds. You have struggled in the face of ad-versity.

We commend you, and we offer you the opportuni-ty to add your name to the many companies that ad-vertise here in the Boca Ra-ton Tribune. We are, after all, your closest neighbor.

‘Advertising is the soul of the business’ By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.

For people who regu-larly devote some time to think, fresh, new ideas inevitably emerge. They need to be recorded, re-vised when necessary, shared with others, and ex-panded. Once their quality is refined, and they can be recognized as sound, right and useful, they should gradually lead to positive action!

“At every stop in life we are coping with the conse-quences of ideas and ac-tions, most of them long since forgotten” as Nor-man Cousins once stated. The mind God gave each human creature needs to advance in careful, sound motion, producing healthy ideas which can lead to something great, with positive, long-lasting out-comes.

What appears good from the start shall require time to be tested before be-coming truly great!

As the late Bishop Wil-

liam Culbertson once re-flected, “It is important to start right, but it is imperative to end well,” while remembering St. Augustine’s warning that “nothing worth doing can be accomplished in one’s lifetime.”

Quite often, the best ideas one receives tend to arrive at most inconve-nient moments. They may

come in the middle of the night when you mo-mentarily awake, or while you are in the shower, dur-ing your driving through heavy traffic, or in equally impractical circumstances.

Yet, even then, you can develop ways to capture every good thought when it comes to you.

Many of the things people enjoy in life today as conveniences, or items of an inspiring, constructive nature, also came about in similar, even adverse circumstances. Yet, per-sistent creativity brought the project to legitimate fruition!

Twentieth century French philosopher, Henri Bergson, left the challenge that “we must think as people of action and act as people of thought.” Many ideas will never lead any-where because they were not clearly defined, fine-tuned, well though-out.

But once they are re-flected upon, shared with others, modified and im-proved over time, they may lead to something impact-ing, enduring, providing direction and genuine help to others in varied ways. Normally, what comes too quickly has greater prob-ability of flaws and failure, or of never getting off the ground, however fascinat-ing the idea initially might appear!

The late Phillips Brooks left a sane and sol-id proposal worth follow-ing in situations similar to these. He suggested, “Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your task.”

From Sound Ideas to Positive Action!

BOCA RATON -- Katrina Carter-Tellison was recently named dean of Lynn’s Col-lege of Liberal Educa-tion after serving as the chair of the university’s nationally-recognized, innovative core curricu-lum, The Dialogues of Learning, and as associ-ate professor of sociol-ogy.

“Dr. Carter-Telli-son brings an intimate knowledge of our core curriculum and teach-ing philosophies to her new role as dean of the College of Liberal Edu-cation,” said Lynn Uni-versity President Kevin M. Ross.

“As one of the key people responsible for implementing our new core that puts liberal education at its center,

I can’t think of a better choice and more capable, deserving person for this role.”

As faculty chair of the core, her work fo-cused on course devel-opment, assessment and faculty development throughout every stage of the implementation process for the new cur-riculum.

In February, one of higher education’s most prestigious national trade publications, In-side Higher Ed, pub-lished an article which held Lynn's new core curriculum up as a shin-ing example of how col-leges and universities can increase the rigor of their academic offerings and improve the com-prehensive education of their students.

“Dr. Carter-Tellison has been instrumental in the implementation of our new core curricu-lum,” Cynthia Patterson, vice president for aca-demic affairs, said. “Her colleagues praise her as a thoughtful, dedicated and passionate educator who is deeply devoted to both student learning and excellence in every phase of academic life. I have no doubt Dr. Cart-er-Tellison will excel as dean of the College of Liberal Education, and I am delighted to wel-come her as the newest member of our academ-ic leadership team.”

“The most important part of leadership is ser-vice. I hope to lead with respect, compassion, and equity,” Carter-Tellison said. “As an educator,

it has always been my goal to inspire stu-dents to have a thirst for knowledge and the world around them. As the dean of College of Liberal Education, I will work hard to be a resource and advocate for faculty and students while continuing my work in the Dialogues of Learning. I will con-tinue the tradition of building and delivering a strong liberal arts edu-cation in my new role.”

Prior to coming to Lynn, Carter-Tellison earned her Ph.D. in soci-ology at the University of Miami. Her major area of concentration was race and ethnic rela-tions with a minor con-centration in cultural studies and criminology.

BOCA RATON -- A lo-cal man told police he was robbed at gunpoint out-side his apartment on NW 15th Court just after 4:15 a.m. Aug 15.

Police said the gunman fired two shots, but missed the victim.

Boca Raton Police of-ficers responded when the man’s cousin, who also lives in the complex, called 911.

The victim told officers he had been at a club in West Palm Beach with two friends and had dropped the friends off at their re-spective homes before ar-riving home himself.

The police report says that when the victim got out of his car, he was ap-

proached by a male point-ing a gun at him. The sus-pect told the man to get on the ground and give him his wallet.

At this point, police said, a second suspect, who was also armed with a gun, got out of a grey four-door vehicle, which was stopped in the street, and approached them. The victim said he did not have a wallet and refused to get on the ground. The sus-pect grabbed the victim and tried to push him to the ground, ripping the necklace off his neck.

The suspect grabbed the victim’s shirt and pulled him toward an area north of the parking lot. During the struggle the

suspect took the victim’s bracelet.

The man was able to pull free from the suspect and threw his keys and cell phone at him. At this point the suspect fired two shots. The victim was not struck.

The suspects got into a newer model, grey four-door American made car, which was driven by an unknown third suspect, and left east on NW 13th Street. The victim sus-tained minor abrasions and a ripped shirt.

Anyone with informa-tion about this crime is asked to call Detective Ron Mello at (561) 620-6186 or Palm Beach County Crime Stoppers at (800) 458-TIPS.

Boca man returning from club robbed at gunpoint; shots fired

BOCA RATON- Lo-cal firefighters rescued a worker from the roof of The Gardens Memorial Park and Cemetery, 4103 N. Military Trail, after he collapsed about 11:20 a.m. Aug. 17.

Public Information Of-ficer Frank Correggio said rescue crews responded after receiving a call for medical assistance.

When rescue crews ar-rived at the building un-der construction, Correg-gio said, they made their way up to the roof using a ground ladder where they found the adult pa-tient who appeared to be dehydrated after working in the sun.

Due to the location of the patient and the soft ground, crews were un-able to deploy the fire de-partment’s ladder truck to assist with the rescue. Boca Raton fire rescue crews placed safety har-nesses and helmets on both rescuer and patient.

With the help of an onsite forklift, co-workers safely lowered the patient and rescuer to the ground where he was transport-ed in stable condition to Boca Raton Regional Hospital for further ob-servation.

Dr. S. Benjamin Roldan - D.M.D. - M.S. - P.A.and Associates

A year after a 2-year-old died in a sweltering hot van at a Delray Beach child care center, the Palm Beach County Com-mission has adopted new regulations for child care facilities, one of which mandates safety alarms in transportation vans.

Sitting as the Child Care Facilities Board, commissioners approved a series of changes to child care facilities rules, including the require-ment for alarms in vehi-cles used for transporting six or more children.

The panel also voted to reduce site require-ments for outdoor play areas, require child care personnel to have a high school diploma and addi-tional pre-licensing train-ing requirements.

County Commission adopts new rules requiring alarms in child care vansIn August 2010,

2-year-old Haile Brock-ington died after she was forgotten in the back of an extremely hot day care van.

To help child care cen-ters pay for the alarms, the county's Children's Services Council has set aside up to $100,000. The alarms range in price from $250 to $400. The money would provide day care centers with a one-time reimbursement.

"We want to avoid any tragedies like Haile Brockington," Gaetana D. Ebbole, the services council's chief executive officer told commission-ers. "We are pleased to make this offer to help keep Palm Beach County's children, our most pre-cious cargo, healthy, safe

and strong."Under the new rules,

day care centers have to have the alarm systems installed by Sept. 1, 2012. They work by forcing the driver or bus aide to walk to the back of the bus to deactivate the alarm af-ter the ignition has been turned off. The presump-tion is that the person will notice if any children have been left behind.

At its Aug.16 meeting, the commission also took the following action:

Mortgage Foreclosure Registration – adopted an ordinance requir-ing banks and mortgage companies to register properties in foreclosure, inspect those properties and identify a property maintenance company for each foreclosed property.

Firearms – approved on preliminary reading and to advertise for pub-lic hearings on Sept. 13 five ordinances mandated by state law pertaining to the sale, purchase, posses-sion, use and storage of firearms.

Homelessness – ap-proved a memorandum of agreement with the Homeless Coalition of PBC to advocate and edu-cate on the issue of home-lessness and to pursue re-sources in pursuit of the county’s Ten-Year Plan to End Homelessness. The county will provide staff-ing and office space for the coalition at the coun-ty’s Division of Human Services. Commissioners also adopted a resolution reducing membership on the Homeless Advi-

sory Board from 36 to 19 members.

Palm Tran – ap-proved a three-year joint participation agreement with the Florida Depart-ment of Transportation (FDOT) in the amount of $863,400 per year to fund service frequency increases on two Glades-area Palm Tran routes. No county funds are re-quired.

Economic Develop-ment – conceptually ap-proved a Section 108 Loan Program agreement in the amount of $592,000 (pending HUD approval) and a Brownfields Eco-nomic Development Ini-tiative (BEDI) grant in the amount of $182,451 for America’s Sound, Inc. The audio equipment manufacturer plans to

renovate a building lo-cated within the Avenue A Revitalization Project in Belle Glade, creating 35 new full-time jobs over the next five years.

Annexations – ap-proved the voluntary an-nexation of an enclave to-taling 1.21 acres on Kirk Road into the village of Palm Springs and a 3.44-acre parcel on Indiantown Road into the town of Ju-piter.

Bluegreen Corporation celebrates 20 years in Boca Raton

BOCA RATON – Bluegreen Corp. celebrat-ed the 20th anniversary of its Boca Raton location during the week of Au-gust 15. The celebrations marked the firm’s growth and success in the time-share, resort management and real estate industry since its relocation to South Florida.

Founded in 1966 as Pat-ten Corporation, by Harry Patten, the company cel-ebrated 25 years of success as a land sales company in Vermont before it opened its Boca Raton location.

In 1994, the firm was joined by George F. Dono-van, who served as presi-dent and chief executive of-ficer. Donovan repositioned

Bluegreen for long-term growth by stream-lining the company’s land development business and expanding into the vaca-tion ownership and golf industries.

In 1996, Patten Corpo-ration changed its name to Bluegreen. In 2007, upon Donovan’s retirement, John Maloney stepped up from president of Bluegreen Resorts to chief

operating officer to CEO.“As Bluegreen has

grown to include some 222,000 owners, over 50 resorts and an additional 4,000 resorts are avail-able through our exchange network, we are proud to say we have achieved and maintained an honorable standard of work and eth-ics,” stated Maloney. “I am humbled by Bluegreen’s success over the past 20 years in Boca Raton, and look forward to watch-ing the company grow and prosper for decades to come.”

At ceremonial ribbon cutting at Bluegreen’s headquarters are, from left, Troy McLellan, president and CEO of the Greater Boca Raton Chamber of Commerce; John M. Maloney Jr., president and CEO of Bluegreen Corporation; Boca Raton Mayor Susan Whelchel and County Commissioner Steven Abrams

BOCA RATON – Eight civic leaders from the Boca Raton area put on their dancing shoes Saturday and salsa’d, cha cha’d and waltzed their way to $211,000 in dona-tions for the George Snow Scholarship Fund.

The money rolled in at the fourth annual “Boca Ballroom Battle,” pat-terned after the popular TV show, “Dancing with the Stars.” In fact, one of

the DWTS troupe, Chel-sie Hightower, came to Boca to be a judge.

Light-footed Jay DiPi-etro, top executive at the Boca West Country Club, went home with a pair of honors – most money collected by a male par-ticipant, and he also took home the mirror ball tro-phy for top male dancer.

Patricia Thomas was top fund-raiser among the ladies and Jackie Reeves

got the mirror ball trophy as best hoofer among the girls.

Also showing their dance stuff on the floor of the Boca Raton Resort & Club were Yvonne S. Boyce, Dr. Raphael Cabre-ra, Ingrid Fulmer, Ralph Mesa and Brian Tindell.

Professional dance partners were from the Fred Astaire Dance Stu-dios Boca Raton.

‘Names of Love’ a French Sex Farce with Political Overtones

Sara Forestier in “Names of Love.”

The 1960s hippie cre-do “Make Love Not War” takes on new meaning in “The Names of Love,” the winner of this year’s Cae-sar, the French equivalent of Academy Award for Best Picture, now play-ing at FAU’s Living Room Theaters.

The lovely lover is one Baya Bernahmoud (Sara Forestier), a young wom-an of Algerian descent and now living in France. Baya decries the discrimi-nation against African-born and Muslim French citizens who have flocked to France in large num-bers for a better life. Baya wages a one-woman battle to change the minds of right-wing, wealthy, big-oted men of power by se-ducing them one at a time while arguing for more moderate, compassionate policies. Ironically Baya is the daughter of a French heiress who has expressed her rebellion by marrying an Algerian refugee (Zin-edine Soualem).

Arthur Martin (Jacques Gamlin) is the forty-some-thing, rational, serious son of a nuclear scientist (Jacques Boudet) who is a

veteran of the 1954-1962 Algerian War of Indepen-dence. Arthur’s mother (Michelle Moretti) is a Jew haunted and traumatized by being the only survivor of her family in the wake of the Holocaust.

Arthur works for a government health agen-cy. We see him examining dead birds for a feared bird flu epidemic.

Because of his job and

common name, Baya as-sumes Arthur is ultra-con-servative. She is wrong.

“Names of Love,” writ-ten by director Michel Leclerc and Baya Kasmi, is an opposites-attract ro-mantic comedy not unlike “Annie Hall.”

Leclerc in fact is an avowed admirer of Woody Allen, but he has adapted the form to French sex farce with serious themes

thrown in.It’s a frothy mixture

with plenty of nudity and sex. Maybe this is French way of dealing with the very serious problems that exist today in France’s multi-cultural society. I have always felt that laugh-ter is a very healthy medi-cine. If this film doesn’t change any minds, at least

Leclerc will have tried.Two and a half stars

When corporationsbecame people

If corporations are people then just what kind of people are they? Do they have a gender, parents or grandparents?

And if so, who is the man and who is the wom-an? Can corporations le-gally get married? If GE dates Ford Motor com-pany, who picks up the check after dinner?

And children. Who raises the kids? And who are the grandparents, Warren Buffet and his wife?

I’ve been thinking a lot about this since Mitt Romney declared that corporations are people. Well, if they are people then corporations need some etiquette classes. When I call AT&T, I am put on hold for at least 30 minutes. On some days, I am subjected to a record-ing that repeats itself 20 or 30 times. My mother used to repeat herself quite often, but never 30 times.

Then there is the is-sue of gender and same sex marriage. National City Bank just wed PNC. and T-Moble is set to walk down the aisle with AT&T. When you have two macho corporations spending their lives to-gether it just might ruffle some feathers in Wash-ington (especially Mr. and Mrs. Bachman). And, I am not sure you can pray away the “gay” when you are the most power-ful telephone company in America (but I am no ex-pert on these matters).

I was thinking that

perhaps I should date a corporation. They have large amounts of spend-able income, are outspo-ken in their right to my needs and want to take me for a ride every time I buy something from them.

Perhaps what these human corporations need is a good woman to set them straight. We don’t need a washing machine that lasts five years, we need one that will at least last longer than the marriage (should it end after 10 years). And warrantees are like com-mitments, what woman would date (or marry) a man who only promises to stick around for three years (do you hear that, Toyota?).

As women, we also need to be heard. But when I call a corporation I get voicemail and am told I must speak to someone in customer service. Now that corporations are people, who wants to date a lowly customer service person? They often live in India or Pakistan and work such long hours it would eliminate dinner dates and social engage-ments.

Not only that, corpo-rations do not make good companions. They close at 5 pm and often don’t want me to come over on weekends.

What kind of person does that? Do they have secret liaisons in the eve-nings and on weekends? Could it be that Mr. Rom-ney wants corporations

to live like Mormons and keep two sets of wives (don’t ask don’t tell I pre-sume).

And, if we get along well will a corporation, make an honest attempt to meet my needs in time of trouble or will they just complain about me to their shareholders. After all, I don’t have share-holders, only friends and acquaintances.

I wonder if Mr. Rom-ney understands what a real person is. Does he know that I need a shoul-der to cry on after some-one gets killed off on “Desperate Housewives?” Does he know that I need someone to keep me com-pany during long holiday weekends? You show me a corporation who wants to take me to the Carib-bean for our anniversary (or a holiday) and I will show you a corporation who insists on having the remote (or asks for direc-tions when lost).

I am all for dating a corporation and having one as a good friend, but I’m not sure how to meet one. If Mr. Romney is correct about corpora-tions being people then why aren’t they on dating sites like Jdate or match.com?

And for that reason I think he and I need to consider counseling.

Because, after all, it would be pretty hard to get a corporation into couples’ counseling. And if you can’t do that, what good are you as a person?



Jack Cohn had it pretty good. At 20 he was a college student majoring in journal-ism at a great Ivy League college.

Tragically, during Jack’s junior year, his father died.

After the estate was set-tled, Jack received a check for almost $650,000.

There are at least two ways this true story could end up. The first is that Jack decides to invest wisely and goes on to finish college. The second is that he decides that college is not as important as fast cars and lots of par-ties. (Read the full article to learn what happened to Jack in real life.)

Most of us would like to think that our children and grandchildren could handle a sizeable inheritance.

The truth is that some would be able to deal with it while others would have great difficulty. As we all know, money can be both a great motivator and a great hindrance.

One way to turn money to your advantage is with an incentive trust.How does it work?

An incentive trust is a trust which most often be-comes effective when you die, though you could estab-lish one while living. Assets in the incentive trust are used by the trustee for the benefit of your beneficiaries.

The key difference is that rather than outright distri-butions, the trust assets are used to encourage certain types of behavior.

For example, let’s as-sume that you believe your children should be rewarded for choosing a public service career.

This might mean teach-ing, politics, mission work or other types of employment

that contribute to the public good but traditionally have not been considered high paying careers. You could design an incentive trust that would make distributions to your heirs if they decide to pursue such careers.

One way to do that would be to pay them a dollar or two in trust distributions for each dollar they earn in public service. We have seen situations where clients have used incentive trusts to help a child live a drug free life-style.

Like anything in life, in-centive trusts have pros and cons.

Here are some of the is-sues to consider.Advantages

Incentive trusts can be used to motivate good and positive behavior.

They can be used to en-courage good grades in school or completion of cer-tain stages of education on time.

Incentive trusts can be used to reward a beneficiary for saving money or for liv-ing a healthy life style.

Many clients have estab-lished these trusts to reward entrepreneurship or stew-ardship of a family business. And of course incentive trusts can be used to encour-age philanthropy.Disadvantages

One of the potential con-cerns with an incentive trust is the resentment that can be caused if your heirs feel you are controlling their behav-ior from beyond the grave.

Another potential issue is that children may come to rely on matching trust distri-butions and settle for a me-

diocre job choice rather than striving to reach ever higher goals.

This type of structure can also be an easy set up for disappointment if the trust goals for success are set un-realistically high or for some reason cannot be met by the beneficiaries.

Despite the potential for disadvantage, clients con-tinue to establish incentive trusts. They do this because we take them through a process that allows them to think creatively about how to achieve the results they are looking for.

If this idea sounds attrac-tive to you for your family, here are some things you can start thinking about.Keep it flexible.

You never know how your kids or grandkids will turn out. Sometimes it is the child who drops out of col-lege who goes on to create Microsoft.Reward milestones.

Think about how you could use the trust to re-ward constant improvement. One way this can be done is by having your trustees and your beneficiaries consult and let your beneficiaries help to establish their own goals. This can encourage personal and professional growth in a way that does not require the imposition of your views and values on future generations.Establish good communi-cation.

One of the biggest prob-lems we see in this area is the failure to let your children know why you set up the trust as you did. Failure to communicate your reasons

may be one of the easiest ways to generate resentment after you are gone. Commu-nication is the best way to in-sure that the trust works ex-actly the way you want it to.Allow Flexibility

Finally, consider allowing your trustees substantial dis-cretion to work with the ben-eficiaries so that as times and people change, your trust can change as well.

Now, back to Jack.Jack just inherited

$650,000 outright. He used the money in the first week for a new BMW. He went back to school and told ev-eryone what had happened. As a result, he became the bank for some of the craziest parties the college had seen in a long time.

One night, Jack was driv-ing home from one of these parties and was in a serious car accident. His face was badly scarred and he suffered a number of broken bones. Luckily, no one else was hurt.

For Jack, it was a wakeup call. He called his dad’s law-yer a few days later and made an appointment.

The lawyer talked with Jack about how to put mon-ey into trust and set him up with a good investment counselor. He then told Jack to forget the money and go back to finish school as his father would have wanted.

The good news part of this story is that Jack did go back. He finished with high marks and now travels the world as a successful photo journalist.

How To Improve Our Relationship with God

How to improve our relationship with God? God does not just want you belong to Him, and to have an alliance with him, but HE wants a relation-ship with you. This is the most important relation-ship that we could culti-vate in our lives.

(Matthew 6:31, 32, 33, 34)Jesus teaches us that

our "biggest concern" must be seeking a full re-lationship with God. In the first place!

Relating to: (to be con-nected with, to have with the, To Become acquaint-ed with), means to be connected, on, learn more and more! If you are seeking to improve your relationship with God, I’ll give you five tips:

1) Take time with God in prayer!

Dialogue generates intimacy! When you tell things from your heart to God, He tells things from his heart to yours! Don’t get a "fast pass ticket" when it comes to talking to God, calm down, take your time, make it plea-surable , invest in this precious time with God!

If you take 5 minutes off every day from your daily doings: phone, in-ternet, television, listen-ing to music, chatting away at the end you ... Made time!

(Psalms 91:1,22)2) Give up what you

know displeases God!

Would you get along with someone who does things they know is wrong and you do not like it? And yet they continue to do so, no! Neither does God! If you know that God does not like it, don’t do it!

Mistakes and sins will always create a gap be-tween you and God de-spite his forgiveness to-wards you!

(Proverbs 28:13,143)3) Seek to know the

Word and grow in under-standing!

This will help you un-derstand the will of The Lord ... If you do not read the manual of your car you can still drive it, but when doubts arise about the functioning of the car, you will go unan-swered!

(Mark 12:24)Ignorance and lack of

knowledge destroys lives and interferes in the rela-tionship with God!

4) Choose to be with people who are also seek-ing quality relationship with God.

Other people can in-spire us and help us in our relationship with God and can also hinder! Therefore it is extremely important to choose well.

(Co.15 1: 33.34)I’ve met people who

were instrumental, vital in my relationship with God, I became so much better!

How nice it is to have contact with people that are connected, connected, intimate, that knows God not only from "hearing about it" but from experi-encing God in their lives!

5) Put yourself al-ways before the Lord as a humble servant, God has no place in the Proud, not haughty, stuck up, conceited, proud! Nei-ther know it all attitude, "Let’s rewrite your his-tory together and you’ll no longer need to use an eraser”...

All we have to be is a humble servant, jars of clay in the hands of God! Whoever wants to look great or be the best or be the perfect one is because it’s insecurities and that’s the way they find to hide their terrible defects! Liv-ing with masks, living a lie!

Any symptom of pride affects our relationship with God! Himself: He was meek, humble, dis-creet, simple, gentle, and merciful, without cer-emony!

Liturgies, religios-ity, self-sufficiency, if you are like this, it will only draw you away from God! Making you less and less pleasing to Him!

(John 3:27 to 30)

Cristo Vive Church:Phone: (561) 674-1431Website: www.cristovive-church.com

Q My wife and I have been married for only three years. We are both in our late thirties and were both partners in a large ac-counting firm until a year ago when she became ill, and could no longer work.

She had a long-term ill-ness, which had been in re-mission since we had met.

I feel like I had been defrauded, she never told me that she might become disabled from an illness I never knew about. We dis-cussed many things before we married that neither of us wanted children; that we would work together, pay our bills, and be able to save considerable money over the years and retire early. Now all that is out the window.

Last week she served me with papers for divorce. Not only is he asking for half of what we had saved so far, she is asking for

permanent alimony. I do not want to hire attorney, looked up the Florida law online, and told her she could not get permanent alimony after a three-year marriage. She told me her high priced lawyer had told her different. Who is right?

A Under most cir-cumstances you would be right, but not under these circumstances. A three year marriage would usu-ally not qualify a person for permanent periodic alimony, no matter how much more one person earned than the other.

Her illness, however, will give a judge the dis-cretion, and perhaps even the obligation to provide her permanent alimony in an amount of money to support her, completely. There is no specific for-mula for alimony, as there is for child support. In

considering your income, and lifestyle, the judge will consider some range of al-imony and pick a number based upon all of the facts.

From what you have said it appears that your wife should diminish her needs by filing for Social Security disability.

The fact that she with-held this information be-tween you may or may not play into the court’s con-sideration of the amount. You may also have to pay her attorney’s fees as well. You might reconsider your decision not to hire coun-sel.

The decision that the judge makes will probably affect the rest of your life and hers. Your degree in accounting does not give you the experience nec-essary to try to sway the court in your direction at a trial.

Junior League of Boca Raton, the Advisory board of the American Red Cross, and author ofseveral children’s books.

Is our country stable or are we so unstable that we could fall apart? Our country is going through a lot right now. It is important to re-member that we were founded in a time of instability and a time where things could have broken us apart. No one knew whether America would survive and many of the framers were skeptical themselves. Our problems today are vast, from economic problems, to poor leader-ship in the White House.

And Constitutional debates are always going on. Wiki leaks brings up the question of free speech, immigration problems bring up the 14th Amendment which says "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and sub-ject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside", the debt ceil-ing brings up Article 1, Section 8 that Congress shall have power to bor-row money on the credit of the United States, and the right to bear arms is always being debated, etc.

And as much as these issues can tear us apart, it’s the red, white, and blue that keeps us to-gether. In 1782, Charles Thomson, the secretary

of the Constitutional Congress, gave a report to Congress on the de-scription of the colors of our flag. "White sig-nifies purity and inno-cence. Red hardiness and valour and Blue signifies vigilance, perseverance and justice."

I believe in a country where against all odds our founding fathers de-cided to form a country based on Judeo-Chris-tian values where every-one could practice their religion and be safe. In 1790, George Washing-ton wrote to the Hebrew Congregation in New-port, Rhode Island "May the stock of Abraham, who dwell in this land, continue to merit and enjoy the good will of the other Inhabitants; while every other one shall sit in safety under his own vine and fig tree, and there shall be none to make him afraid."

But, we have gotten fat and we have gotten lazy. I believe that if we work hard, and we cut the fat from what has been going on, that we can get in shape. We can be that strong country that we always were. Any athlete will tell you that it takes discipline, dedication and belief in one self to accomplish your goals. The framers of the constitution never wanted the government

to run our country, but that we the people would run our own lives and that we would over see the government.

We live is a large un-incorporated community west of Boca Raton. It owes its evolution to Fran Reich who fought for schools, traffic lights and, especially, the envi-ronment.

She helped bring a middle school, defeat a proposal for an airport, establish the West Boca Medical Center and built a bridge, now bear-ing her name, over the turnpike on Palmetto Park Road. In 1980, she created the West Boca Community Council and began advocating for parks, libraries and youth activity centers. She worked hard and ac-complished much.

I believe in America and its amazing resourc-es and its perseverance. I believe we will over-come our obstacles, our current difficulties, and our spirit must never be dampened or broken.

I believe that while we live in such a beau-tiful community like South Florida, we must realize that we are all in this together. I believe in America, and I believe in our success and hap-piness and many happy days ahead.

I still believe...Models were using

corrective lip make-up tricks many years before “show business or Holly-wood” started overdoing, filling lips with silicone - some looking like a duck in profile. Corrective lip make-up for fuller lips is not difficult to master…it’s a matter of know-how and practice. You will know how after you read this column. Just practice a few times be-fore you actually go out on the town with your new, glamorous lips.

Note: If you decide to have your lips made full-er with silicone, tell the doctor you do not want your moneys’ worth…don’t overdo it.

*Two shades of Lip-stick, one a little lighter than the other with NO shimmer. *A Lip Liner Pencil A little darker than the darker lipstick. *A Lip Gloss medium shine with no shimmer.

Below you will find step-by-step instructions using model makeup tricks to achieve fuller looking lips. It is not dif-ficult to master and can

be very glamorous and alluring. This is how I “develop” my fuller lips.

1) Apply lipstick nor-mally, using your full lip line…blot lightly.

2) Next, take the lip liner pencil and lightly blend the pencil color around your lips’ edges and into the lipstick, making sure to cover the full edge of your lip line…even going over the edge ever-so-slightly. Do not just make a dark line around the lips with your pencil….smudge or blend the two colors to-gether so there is no line of demarcation between the lipstick and lip pen-cil. Do not put the lip liner color all over the lips. The trick is to have the outer part of the lips appear darker than the middle of the lips. The consistency of the lip liner pencil is most im-portant. A medium con-sistency not too hard or too soft will make the ap-plication so much easier. Make sure the pencil has a point

3) If you want/need to add more of the origi-

nal lipstick now is the time to do it.

After that, apply a lighter shade of lipstick to the middle INSIDE of the bottom lip only, tak-ing care not to cover the entire bottom lip itself with this second color. The lighter inside bot-tom lip color gives it a fuller, puffier look.

4) Blot your lips lightly and carefully then lightly powder over the outside edges …go ahead, don’t be afraid. The powder will hide your secret, since a shiny outside edge reflects light, calling attention to your lip art …the powder camouflages it.

5) If you like a subtle gloss, now is the time to apply it but do not apply it on the lip line as it will expose your fuller lip se-cret.

Note: If your lips are too full or wide, you can follow the above infor-mation, but bring the lip-stick and lip pencil just INSIDE the lip line.

Do you like it? I bet you do.

Want to make your lips more youthful and fuller?

PET OF THE WEEK

Do some canine magic and take Pandorahome for your loving pet

BOCA RATON -- Spe-cial needs dog? Who? I hear there’s one here but....wait...me? Nah. I can run and play and be happy as a clam, so it can’t be ME.

I’m Pandora, a Lab/boxer mix, a four-month-old spayed female weighing 25 pounds.

They say I have a neu-rological problem with my hind end. It sometimes fails to follow my front end and I get a little tangled up but I get going again right away, big smile still in place!

I love to run and my ‘disability’ lessens when I run fast and in a straight line, so that’s a lot of fun. I’m active, playful and hap-py just like any pup should be. I’d love some kids to live with and I can probably teach them a thing or two about not complaining or feeling sorry for yourself.

I like cats and other dogs,

too. Did I mention I’m just darn adorable, too? Please ask to meet me. I need a loving home so I can love RIGHT BACK AT YOU!

I’m available for adop-tion at Tri-County Hu-mane Society, a no-kill animal shelter located at 21287 Boca Rio Road in Boca Raton. The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Adoption fees for companion animals are $110 and up.

Animals are heart-worm-tested and up-to-date on vaccinations.

Included in the adoption fee is one year of free office visits to Regency Veteri-nary Clinic.

Please visit us to find a lost pet or to consider add-ing a shelter dog or cat to your family. We have pup-pies and kittens, too!

Call (561) 482-8110 or

countyhumane.org. Follow us on Facebook and Twit-ter at ‘TriCounty Humane’.

Members of the NARSC (National Animal Rescue and Sheltering Coalition), including the ASPCA® (American So-ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®), are assisting the North Da-kota Department of Agri-culture and the Souris Val-ley Animal Shelter with emergency sheltering op-erations in Minot, N.D. for animals affected by severe flooding that has devastat-ed the city since late June.

To date, NARSC has provided sheltering for over 500 animals—mostly cats and dogs belonging to residents displaced by the floods—at a pet evacu-ation center located at the

NDSU Research Center. The operation is expected to last until the end of Au-gust.

"The ASPCA is grate-ful to all of the NARSC member agencies that quickly stepped up to of-fer assistance," said Sandy Monterose, senior direc-tor of community out-reach for the ASPCA and NARSC chair. "By collabo-rating and combining our resources and knowledge, we’re able to transition smoothly from one agency to the next and ultimately help the animals displaced by the recent flooding."

"This emergency was not sudden like a tornado or hurricane, but it's just as

devastating to those who are affected," said Shan-non Walajtys, emergency relief officer for IFAW, the first NARSC team on the ground. "Many of the displaced residents are un-derstandably pre-occupied with the burden of find-ing new homes in which to live, and the moments they’re able to spend vis-iting their beloved pets at our emergency shelter provide such an important emotional boost."

On August 10, the American Humane Associ-ation’s Red Star™ Animal Emergency Services team arrived in Minot. "Right now, evacuated citizens’ pets are being housed in

temporary emergency shelters set up by local res-idents and outside agen-cies," said Josh Cary, team lead of the AHA’s Red Star effort. "American Humane Association is providing a rotation team to care for family pets whose own-ers have been stranded by the flooding. Animal own-ers know that we will keep their beloved pets safe un-til reunions are possible."

BOCA RATON, FL - The Fort Lauderdale Strik-ers began their remote training tour this past week as the team held practice at Loggers’ Run Park in Boca Raton on Tuesday, August 16.

The Strikers held a regular training session in front of fans and members of the Boca United youth soccer club. Once practice concluded, the Boca United youth team and parents took part in a question and answer session with

the Strikers players and coaches, followed by an au-tograph session for the as-piring young athletes.

“An important aspect of our community out-reach program is cement-ing relationships with the youth soccer community, said Strikers President Tim Robbie. “We feel the re-mote training sessions are a great way of providing clubs with opportunities to get a closer look at a profes-sional training session and a special opportunity to in-teract with the players and coaches.”

“It’s good to play in front of my hometown fans again. I saw a few familiar faces, it’s great to be back here” said Boca Raton na-tive and Strikers defender Scott Gordon.

The Strikers are cur-rently in sixth place in the North American Soccer League standings but only three points separates sixth place Fort Lauderdale and third place Tampa Bay.

Fort Lauderdale hosts Tampa Bay this weekend at Lockhart Stadium in a cru-cial game that can change the landscape of the NASL

Playoff race as the Strikers look to bring playoff soc-cer to Lockhart Stadium for the first time since the Miami Fusion last played at Lockhart.

“Our motivation these last few games are simple, we are not in the playoffs yet. We need to keep bat-tling” said head coach Da-ryl Shore of the playoff situation the Strikers are currently in.

“We are on a good run right now, and if we keep this going we will accom-plish the goal we set for our-selves at the beginning of

the season,” added Gordon.If Hurricane Irene

doesn’t hit south Florida, the Strikers will take on Tampa Bay F.C. on Satur-

day at Lockhart stadium at 7:30pm. If you can’t make it to the game, make sure to tune in online to strikers.com/live.

Many of us—myself included—have wondered why the Dolphins didn't find a true backup to Dan-iel Thomas. Someone that could carry the load in the event the rookie suffers an injury, considering Reg-gie Bush is more of a role player and Lex Hilliard just isn't starter material.

But as Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams and Marion Barber and Je-rome Harrison and every other quality back signed elsewhere, it appeared the Dolphins were content go-ing with a seemingly thin backfield—at least until fi-nal cuts rolled around.

However, the Dolphins have added an unlikely, for-merly high-profile name in the form of ex-Chiefs and Redskins running back Larry Johnson. The Dol-phins have waived running back Kory Sheets to make room for Johnson on the roster, which now stands at 85 players.

Miami also reportedly

worked out Johnson's for-mer Washington teammate Clinton Portis on Monday.

Reports from last week had Portis extremely out of shape for a workout with the Patriots.

Johnson played his col-lege ball at Penn State, where in 2002 he rushed for 2,000 yards on fewer carries than anyone else in NCAA history. Averag-ing nearly eight yards per carry, Johnson earned the Doak

Walker Award as the nation's top running back and the Maxwell Award, given to the best player in college football.

Selected by the Kan-sas City Chiefs in the first round of the 2003 NFL Draft against the wishes of head coach Dick Vermeil, Johnson played sparingly as a rookie before seeing significant action (and ex-celling) late in the 2004 season.

Out of Priest Holmes' shadow in 2005, Johnson went on a tear the next two seasons, topping 1,700

yards rushing in both 2005 and 2006 while combining for 37 touchdowns on the ground. Before the 2007 season, he signed a six-year, $45 million contract with $19 million guaranteed.

Johnson, who set an NFL record with 416 car-ries in 2006, saw his pro-duction dip significantly as he rushed for just 559 yards on a 3.5 average in eight games in 2007. He aver-aged a healthy 4.5 yards per carry the following season despite missing four games, but missed time due to vio-lations of team rules.

Through the first seven games of the 2009 sea-son, Johnson remained the Chiefs' starting running back and averaged just 2.9 yards per carry. Follow-ing a series of tweets that criticized head coach Todd Haley, a Chiefs fan, and the entire gay and lesbian com-munity, the team eventually released Johnson on Nov. 10.

I'm a bit conflicted on this signing, because it ab-solutely fills a need. Despite

what Tony Sparano says, Bush is not going to be an every-down back, meaning a backup that can carry the load is needed on the ros-ter in case of an injury to Thomas. Johnson can cer-tainly be that guy.

My question is why the Dolphins settled for someone that hasn't shown much life in nearly three years as opposed to some-one like Barber or either of the Dolphins' former veter-an backs that might be able to fill in as a starter better?

Obviously, Johnson is probably getting a bottom-basement deal with some incentives, but it's not like the other veterans on the market signed big-money contracts either. It seems odd the Dolphins would opt for a less effective play-er to save 500 grand.

One thing to keep in mind for anyone getting overly excited or overly an-noyed at this signing is that Johnson is by no means a lock to make the roster. He'll have less than two weeks to audition for a spot

Dolphins sign former Pro Bowl RB Larry Johnson

on the team, but he'll be no better than the third option in the backfield and thus is not safe from being re-

placed by a younger player (and one that can play spe-cial teams) once final cuts are made.

Boca Raton, FL - The Florida Atlantic University women's soccer team put all phases of the game to-gether in Sunday's 2-0 win over Stetson University at the FAU Soccer Stadium in Boca Raton. The Owls scored once in each half to improve their record to 2-0 on the season.

FAU struck first as sophomore forward Jesse Shugg scored from the cen-ter of the 18-yard box on a cross set up by sophomore forward Brittney Nash in the 18th minute. The Burl-ington, Ont., Canada native finished with a hard shot to the lower right corner of the goal for her second goal of the season.

"It was important to get ahead early so we could es-

tablish tempo in the match. Jesse's goal gave us a boost and from there we were able to play a good match," said Brian Dooley, FAU's head women's soccer coach. "It was a good team victory."

The Owls held a 9-3 shot advantage in the first half and added more pressure in the second 45-minute stan-za. Nash found the back of the net off a free kick from redshirt junior midfielder Meghan Brown in the 65th minute. The goal was the first of the season for the Desoto, Texas native to go along with her two assists recorded during the open-ing week of action.

The visiting Hatters increased their pressure in the last 10 minutes of the match and were awarded

a penalty kick opportunity with just over two minutes remaining. However, junior goalkeeper Ashley Lantes-denied the attempt from Stetson's Alyssa Welsh to preserve the shutout. Lan-tes made three saves in the match.

Overall, FAU outshot the Hatters 13-8, including nine shots on goal. Shugg and Brown paced the offen-sive attack with three shots each. Senior defender Ga-briela DeVries added two shots.

The win marks the first time that the Owls have started 2-0 since 2005.

FAU returns to the pitch on Friday, September 2 when it battles Mercer Uni-versity at 7 p.m. at the FAU Soccer Stadium.

Indianapolis, Ind. -- El-eonora Iannozzi from the Lynn University women’s tennis team received a nom-ination for the 2011 Woman of the Year.

Iannozzi played 25 matches at the number two spot in the national runner-up Fighting Knights’ lineup and took victories in all but one match. She finished her senior campaign with a 25-1 overall mark, a 4-1 record against nationally ranked opponents and a #6 national ranking. The native Italian, decorates the LU record books as she ranks second in Lynn history for most single wins in a career with 89 and third in winning per-centage at .927.

“I think it’s a great tribute to her hard work throughout her career at Lynn,” head coach Mike Perez said. “She is certainly deserving of this award. We

have had some tremendous talent come through Lynn and she has proven to be one of the best not only on the court but in the class room as well. Her maturity speaks for itself and we are excited to have her as our graduate assist this next year.”

In 2008 Alexandra Sc-hunk was selected as one of the top-10 nominees in Division II for the 2008 NCAA Woman of the Year Award.

The Woman of the Year Award, now in its 21st year, honors female student-athletes who have distinguished themselves throughout their collegiate careers in academic achieve-ment, athletic excellence, community service and leadership.

To be eligible for the award, a female student-athlete must have complet-ed intercollegiate eligibility in her primary sport by the end of the 2011 spring sea-

son, graduated no later than the end of the summer 2011 term and achieved a mini-mum cumulative grade-point average of 2.5.

With the 142 confer-ence nominees selected, a committee composed of representatives from NCAA member schools and ath-letic conferences will select 10 nominees from each of the three divisions to com-pose the Top 30 nominees, who will be announced in late August. The selection committee will then narrow the Top 30 to three finalists from each division to form the Top Nine, which will be announced in early Sep-tember. From the Top Nine finalists, the NCAA Com-mittee on Women’s Athlet-ics will select the national winner. The 2011 NCAA Woman of the Year will be announced during the Woman of the Year dinner in Indianapolis on Sunday, October 16.

FORT LAUDER-DALE, Fla. – The Fort Lauderdale Strikers (6-10-6, 28 points) were unable to extend their undefeated streak as they fell 2-0 to the NASL-leading Caro-lina RailHawks (15-3-4, 48 points) at WakeMed Soccer Park on Saturday, August 20. The Strikers remain in fifth place in the NASL standings, one point behind the NSC Minnesota Stars.

“I thought we weren’t bad tonight,” said Strikers head coach Daryl Shore. “We missed a lot of chanc-es and when you give Caro-lina two goals it’s tough to catch up.”

Carolina’s first goal came on an Etienne Barba-ra penalty kick in the 31st

minute. Strikers defender Toni Stahl was called for late tackle on Barbara in the penalty area and Bar-bara was able to bury his league-leading 17th goal of the season. Fort Lau-derdale had several chances to tie the game, including a point blank header by Abe Thompson which was saved by RailHawks goal-keeper Brad Knighton.

In the second half, the Strikers continued to have their chances, but were un-able to find the net. Fort Lauderdale was victim-ized on the counterat-tack a second time when Carolina’s Matt Watson started a give and go with Pablo Campus in the 58th minute. Watson took the

return pass from Cam-pos and deftly chipped a charging Matt Glaeser to put the RailHawks up 2-0. The loss is the sixth of the season for the Strikers and snaps a streak of 10 games scoring at least one goal.

“We have to regroup because we know we have a very important game next Saturday against FC Tam-pa Bay,” said Shore.

The Strikers com-plete their road trip 1-1-1 and will now have three straight games at home, starting with third place FC Tampa Bay on Satur-day. Fort Lauderdale has six games remaining in the regular season with four of them coming at home in Lockhart Stadium.
