Gala, The Good Fortune Ball, Raised Over
$625,000 For The Not-For-Profit Theatre
Nearly 400 guests attended the benefit and live auction, held in the Grand
Ballroom at the PGA National Resort Grand Ballroom in Palm Beach Gardens.
Inspired by the theatre’s production of the Tony Award®-winning musical The
King and I (March 18 – April 6), the spectacular affair transported guests back to a
wonderland of 19th century Siam, complete with a gilded gold dance floor, cherry
blossoms, glittering tables bathed in candlelight, magnificent floral centerpieces,
Siamese lanterns strung from the ceiling, splendid blush pink and purple lighting
and more.
Guests in sparkling gowns and tuxedoes were greeted at the front entrance
with a spectacular rousing drum performance by Thaiko drummers, as well as
performances during dinner that included a traditional ribbon dancer, a dancer Susan and Ross Johnson
who trained professionally in Thailand and a
glorious high-energy showcase of “Shall We
Dance,” featuring Babette Brown and Dmitry
Nikolaev, clad in the original costumes from
the Broadway revival of The King and I.
An unforgettable highlight of the evening
transpired when costumed local children from
the theatre’s current production of The King
and I appeared for a “procession of gifts” and
presented gala honoree Roe Green with gifts
of gratitude for her phenomenal support of the
theatre through the years.

“Tonight, we celebrate the 57th anniversary of the Palm

millions of dollars for this charitable organization, which
does so much for our community, our nation and the world,”
noted Vecellio. “This evening is a tribute not only to the
organization and all that it accomplishes, but to the volunteers
and the generosity of so many in this room who contribute
support. We are honored to host local and international
leaders coming together with that shared goal.”
For the last 40 years, Vecellio has worked as a full-time
organizer, fundraiser and development volunteer for dozens
of nonprofit organizations. She has received countless awards
for her lifetime of service. Her tireless efforts as a member
or chairperson of myriad committees and boards have helped
raise awareness and millions of dollars for more than 40

Hot Off the Press!
Premier matchmaking
and events service launches
new hub in Palm Beach
Gardens
This month I am so excited
to announce the launch of
Revolution Dating, an upscale
dating and events club which
will be delivering more love
and friendship to single,
divorced, and widowed adults
in Florida. My long-term team and I have been working
overtime planning parties and benefits for all of you. “It’s
not what you know, it’s who you know”...and we know some
amazing single men and women!”
Our office location is the icing on the cake! Located near
Spoto’s Oyster Bar, Rocco’s Tacos, and Vic & Angelo’s
Restaurants, three great date spots. In the past, businesses like
ours have been located “high in the tower” hidden away from
the general public. Today, with online dating & matchmaking
becoming mainstream, placing our new office right in the mix
of the hottest restaurants in town is ideal. Many who have
been on the fence will now feel more comfortable calling
CROSSWORD PUZZLE

us. Revolution Dating has been called the “hottest gig in
town” by many singles touting that “this is going to be the
best way to meet other quality singles!”
After two decades of success in the industry, I feel driven
to raise the bar for our many friends and clients. I am excited
to introduce new types of events from “Oscar Night” to
“Ballroom Dance Events” to “Yoga Workshop” to “Tandem
Kayaking.” Our goal is to attract date-worthy professional and
retired singles. Between my 23 years in the business, and my
Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology, my talents rival some
of the best in the U.S.A.! I’m happy to bring it all to YOU...
making the gap from “single” to “taken” very easy!
Since 1991, I’ve helped thousands aged 25-85 find
friendship and romance. Last year, I celebrated another
record year of successful matches, and I can’t wait to
increase the numbers in 2014! The majority of my clients
report a positive dating experience which means they are
now engaged, married or happily dating.
Our client base ranges from Vero Beach to Broward County.
Everyone is screened which includes background checks. Once
a client of Revolution Dating, perks abound. Membership
includes a professional photo shoot, profile-writing assistance,
one-on-one date coaching, image consulting, and/or even
personal shopping to get you ready for your first date. We
also have an expert who will help get your home “relationship
ready” post-divorce or break-up. There is even a “Millionaires
Only Circle” available as an option. For some, we will even
plan the date for you by request!
We are here to jump start your love life! Our parties are
private for our friends and members, unlike other singles
events where anyone can attend. As always, our events are
first come first serve! If you don’t like parties, no problem,
we can do one on one set-ups. The club is custom made to
the single clients needs.
To celebrate the Revolution of Love 2014, we are
offering new clients who join before April 20 an invite to
our Sexy Singles Launch Party at the end of April. This will
be the biggest singles event of the year--be sure to RSVP
to 561-630-XOXO today if you want to come play with us.
Revolution Dating is light years ahead of the bar scene,
online dating, or any other club in town… as you will come
to know. My team is truly dedicated to love and building
relationships. This is not just about a “date,” this is a life
changing experience!
I hope to see you at the party this month! Much Love As
Always, Your Local Cupid, Kelly

TEQUESTA DRUGS AND
COMPOUNDING
See answer in this paper.
The secret of a well-dressed
woman is not how much she spends
for her fashion whether it’s luxe or
ready to wear but how it fits.
Even the most expensive
outfit can be spoiled by ill-fitting
shoulders, gapping blouses, loose
shapes, or bulging waistbands.
After alterations are the key – a
good stylist is the secret weapon.
Having a good seamstress or
tailor is so important especially after the age of 40, nothing
seems to fit right.
Not all tailors are the same, so look thoroughly to find one
you can work with. Better department stores and especially,
your smaller boutiques offer tailoring free of charge.
The fit difference can be taking in darts or moving them,
letting out waist, tightening seams so a blouse doesn’t gape,
adding gussets or pieces of fabric to pants that are too tight.
Sleeves can be shortened to a desired length or tapered. Pant legs
can be slimmed down if too big – can be shortened or narrowed,
or a cuff can be added. Lengthen the crotch by re-cutting the
curve even adding fabric. If necessary, seams can be taken in or
out and reshaped for a more fitted look. Updating older styles
by re-setting shoulders and slimming down sleeves – even restyling knits can be done by an expert tailor.

had new golf clubs and a host of other items.
The church sale is famous for its bakery with homemade cookies, cakes, pies, breads,

brownie! The Strawberry Cafe serves lunch and strawberry desserts and they also had

Military-To-Main-Street
‘Continuing To Serve With Honor’
Tequesta says, “Thanks For Your Service” with a great job offer for veterans!
The Village of Tequesta is welcoming returning veterans
home with a uniquely special opportunity in recognition of
their service to our country. It’s called “Military-To-MainStreet” and is available to men and women who have been …
or soon will be honorably discharged from the United States
Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force or Coast Guard. The
Village of Tequesta would like to help you transition from
the military to a career in civilian law enforcement.
The Offer: Complete training with pay, and a career as
a Tequesta police officer.
If you’re interested in becoming a full-time police officer
… and qualify for this special veterans’ opportunity, we’ll
give you priority consideration in the hiring process, and
provide excellent training at a local police academy. We
will also pay for your entire tuition, along with a generous
weekly training allowance as well as any incidentals such
as books, uniforms, ammunition, etc.
Tequesta is also seeking reserve police officers, and is
sponsoring a similar initiative to attend a local full-time
or part-time police academy after completing the entire
application and background process.
Realizing the response may be greater than their
immediate need, Tequesta is seeking other police agencies
that are also in need of recruits. While the genesis of this
unique program was designed by the Village of Tequesta,
Florida, the Village manager’s intent is to interest many
more police agencies to use the “Military-To-Main-Street”
program as a model in their own venues in an effort to provide
returning armed forces veterans with a special opportunity
of immediate employment combined with a secure pathway
toward a career in civilian law enforcement throughout the
entire United States.
“Military-To-Main-Street” is meant to be an overt
commitment of support, borne out of genuine appreciation
of the military veterans honorable service to our citizens
everywhere. Hopefully it will help provide an honest
welcome home to our veterans … and a well-earned softlanding back into civilian life.

Remember, You’re Not Fit, Unless You’re Phil Fit
If you are like most
people, you probably
believe the best way to
protect your heirs after
your death is through a will.
However, a living revocable
trust is a far superior method
of transferring property
to your heirs. This is a
contract wherein a party (the
settlor), during his lifetime,
establishes rules for the
management and distribution of his property upon his
incapacitation or death. Any competent adult can establish
a living revocable trust, and any competent adult may
serve as trustee. The heirs to whom the property in the trust
will be distributed are known as the trust beneficiaries.
A living revocable trust is established in writing and a
trustee is appointed to manage and distribute the property
in accordance with the settlor’s detailed instructions.
Usually the settlor names himself as trustee of the trust
property during his lifetime, with a spouse, friend, relative
or financial institution named as a successor trustee upon
his death or incapacitation. This allows the settler to
continue to manage and control the trust property during
his lifetime.
Establishing a living revocable trust has substantial
advantages over a will, for example:
• Avoiding Probate: The biggest advantage of using
a living revocable trust is that, unlike a will, it allows an
estate to avoid probate. Probate is the process whereby
the court oversees the transfer of your property to your
heirs (which will be determined for you by state law if
you don’t designate them in a will), and can be extremely
time-consuming and expensive. It can take between six
months and two years for an estate to clear probate, and
the fees on a $300,000 estate can be as high as $18,000.
A living revocable trust provides an inexpensive way
to transfer your assets to your heirs quickly and easily
without having to submit to probate.

Epicuriosity
Sherry
One Of The World’s Oldest Wines Is A Treasure That Is Underappreciated In Many Circles
By Glenn Sudnick, Certified Sommelier
Sherry has a protected
Spanish designation of origin
status. This fortified wine (a
fortified wine is produced
by having grape spirit added
during the production in order
to increase the alcoholic
strength, halt fermentation
to preserve the sugar content
and stabilize) comes from an
area of Spain known as the
sherry triangle consisting of
the three towns of Jerez
de la Fronters, Sanlúcar
de Barrameda and El
Puerto de Santa Maria.
There are three grape
varieties authorized for
production: Palomino,
Muscat of Alexandria
and Pedro Ximénez.
The last two grapes
are mainly used for
sweetening.
Sherry is aged by the
Solera system which
uses tiers of wine casks
that are systematically
blended with the more
mature wine in the casks
below. Sherry comes in
different styles.
Fino is a crisp, dry Sherry glasses
and nutty delicate
sherry.
Manzaniila comes
from the coastal
town of Sanlúcar de
Barrameda and is
typically lighter than
fino, often with a little
salty finish.
Amontillado is
amber in color with
a distinctive nutty
flavor that is complex,
with a long finish.
Palo Cortado is a
rare variety of sherry
that is much sought
after. The production
of this rare breed has
notes that are a cross Olives
of a fino and the nutty
richness of an amontillado. The character of this fine wine
make it quit expensive.
Oloroso sherry is dry and brown-colored. It is a rich nutty
style with aromas of raisins.
Cream sherry is sweetened with the addition of Muscat or
Pedro Ximénez grapes and is more commercially produced.
Sherry can be served with an appetizer or dessert.
Spain offers great cheeses and salted hams. My favorite
cheese is probably the famous Manchego. This cheese is
incredible, made from unpasteurized sheep’s milk; it is aged
between three months to two years. Normally butterscotch in
color it is well developed, creamy with nutty flavors.
To compliment this fine cheese I serve thinly sliced Serrano
ham, fresh rustic Spanish bread baked with sun-dried tomatoes
and an assortment of Manzanilla olives all marinated with
oregano, thyme, garlic, orange, lemon and a little rosemary.
These are Mediterranean wonders!
Wouldn’t it be fun to offer your guest a sherry with all the
accompaniments when they arrive at your home?

Florida may be the
Sunshine State, but that
doesn’t mean every backyard
is blessed with full sun. South
Florida encompasses U.S.
Department of Agriculture
(USDA) hardiness zones
9 and 10. Finding shadeloving plants for this region
can be challenging, but
many types of tropical and
subtropical plants perform
well in south Florida so long
as gardeners provide
frequent watering.
Shade plants offer
diverse color and
texture, and some
varieties display
flowers.
Shade gardens
are a wonderful way
to utilize the areas
under trees, beside Shade garden design and installed
fences and along by Magland
foundations. But be
sure to choose the right plants for your shady spot. Check
your garden’s shade patterns. High tree canopies give partial
or dappled shade, while buildings or low trees provide full
shade.
Some shade loving plants also love the sun, so if your
shade shifts, look for plants that adapt, like flax lily. Many
shady areas are also dry, so use drought tolerant shade lovers
like Devil’s Backbone.
Perennials with white or brightly colored flowers or
variegated leaves, such as ground orchids, will really
stand out.
Other shade-loving perennials include ferns, stramantha
and gingers, but many more are available.
For some color, add caladiums; for flowers, add dragon
wing and angel wing begonias. Also for texture bromeliads
is the way to go with a large range of varieties. If you use a
lot of purple-leaved plants some lime-colored or variegated
leaves will provide a nice contrast. Sanchezia has a yellow
green variety that could be paired with its purple sister. Spider
plant has lots of white foliage and pairs well with Ti plants
too like Black Magic, Tricolor Ti, Anti Lou and more.
As you near the edge of a tree canopy or shady area
you can experiment with plants that need a little more sun.
Liriope, variegated arbacola and other mounding grasses
make a nice transition to turf at the edge of shade.
These areas are also great to create hardscape spaces,
pavers or rocks can be installed to use these spaces for
recreation adding texture and color. Water features are also
a good option creating a nice focal point and adding the
calming sound of the water.
Please contact me to help you and guide you in your next
gardening project. There are lots of options out there it’s
just a matter of finding the right one for each space. (561)

Hearing Solutions
Why Your Hearing Healthcare Professional Really Matters
By Murray Steinfeld, Audioprosthologist
Increasingly, hearing aids
are being attempted to be sold
online through catalogues
and directly to the consumer
by passing the hearing
healthcare professional. Even
Hammacher Schlemer, a
known gift and gadget retailer
is attempting to sell hearing
aids as an over the counter
product by referring to them
as “amplifiers.”
Some large insurance companies have attempted to persuade
their clients to spend their hard-earned money on hearing
products, not necessarily appropriate to their hearing concerns.
They are being told that there will be a significant savings if
purchased from the insurance company, but the real motivation
is not necessarily to the benefit of the patient but in truth it is
to the benefit of the insurance company. That is called “Client
Retention and Control.” What the client forgets is that they are
left without the face-to-face contact anytime needed to tweak
the aids or to have an immediate examination if there are any
questions as regarding their hearing or how any new medications
or illness may be affecting their current hearing. The loss of
immediate availability and ongoing care by the locally available
audioprosthologist, audiologist or hearing specialist. What
happens if there is need for a repair that could be done quickly
and easily be done in the office, sometimes while you wait?
What happens when a patient is experiencing difficulty
for whatever the reason and there is no one locally available
to check you, the hearing aids, etc.? What if you have an
accumulation of earwax and it is causing problems with your
aid and your hearing ability? Will the insurance company send
an audioprosthologist, audiologist or hearing specialist to your
home with all the proper equipment necessary to diagnose the
problem and fix it? The insurance company is looking out for
the benefit of the insurance company. They want to be sure the
client and the client’s premium will be there ongoing. Truthfully,
the client and the client’s problems and their frustrations are
very secondary.
Here is some factual information for you to consider:
1) On March 28, 2012, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration
(FDA) issued a letter to (HI) Health Innovations, a United
Healthcare Insurance Company Division created to influence
clients and dispense hearing aids to their clients made by a totally
unknown facility. The FDA stated that the company’s online
hearing test was in violation of the Federal Food & Drug &
Cosmetic Act. In the same letter the FDA ordered the company
to take down the test. The letter was written and signed by Steven
D. Silverman, director of the Office of Compliance, Center for
Devices and Radiological Health and was addressed to Health
Innovations CEO Lisa Tseng, M.D. Interestingly, the United
Healthcare Division Health Innovations was instructing the
client to go to a hearing healthcare person, pay them whatever
they ask, be tested and send the results to them and they’ll send
you a pair of hearing aids. The rest of the burden is now on your
shoulders. But, you’ll save some money. What a desperate way
for an insurance company to treat their business and their clients.
Now let’s take an honest look at what really matters with
your hearing healthcare. Here’s the problem. Although it is true
that the by-passing of a licensed and certified hearing healthcare
professional, if available, might be an immediate savings of some
dollars. But, are you willing or would it be wise to by-pass proper
examination, diagnosis, fitting, programming and counseling
which I’m sure you’ll agree is a recipe for poor treatment
outcomes and the increased risks to your hearing health.
There are many potential causes for hearing loss including
aging, blockages, ear infections, fistulas, head injuries,
medications, Meniere’s disease, noise damage, otosclerosis
and tumors. Many cannot be treated with a hearing aid and
may require immediate medical intervention. If you consider
purchasing your hearing device from other than your hearing
healthcare person you may become your own worst enemy.
What’s more hearing loss may also result from the improper
fitting or programming of hearing instruments.
It should also be known that most legitimate hearing aid
providers (makers) will not allow their hearing aids to be sold
or dispensed without a face-to-face consultation with a licensed
practitioner. They recognize the risks of buying and using
hearing aids without the proper counseling and fitting that only
a licensed hearing healthcare professional can provide.
Finally, a hearing aid is not a normal consumer product. It is
a medical device. It requires the proper battery of audiological
tests, it has to have the right hardware and software and needs
to have the correct fit physically for the patient. It must be tuned
and configured to the individual and be correctly and physically
fit to the impaired individual. Additionally it is to the advantage
of the patient to be re-tested annually and the hearing aids they
are wearing be updated and corrected to the new audiogram.
That is in the best interest of the patient and should be done by
their hearing healthcare practitioner.
In reality fitting hearing aids is an art that is guided by science
and delivered by the experience of a licensed and board certified
hearing healthcare professional.

Speeding Recovering From Surgery
By Dan and Liz Brumer, R.Phs., Tequesta Drugs and Compounding Pharmacy
A sudden fall. A serious
diagnosis. Surgery isn’t
always something you can
plan for. Even so, you can
take steps to make recovery
at home a little faster and
safer. You just might need
to depend on others for
extra help. With the benefit
of advance planning, of
course, do what you can before the day of surgery.
Simplify. What felt easy before surgery may suddenly
feel a little like mountain climbing. Take a few simple steps
now to eliminate steps later.
• Stock up on food and other supplies. Buy ready-made
meals or prepare and freeze single meals.
• Put items you use often within easy reach – between
waist and shoulder level.
• Make sure your bed is firm enough to support you while
you recover.
• Stay on the same floor as a nearby bathroom. Or buy a
portable commode to put by the bed.
• Put a portable or cell phone within easy reach. Keep
handy the numbers you will need to call, like the doctor’s
office, neighbor, relative and pharmacy.
• Place a firm-backed chair in rooms you use most often.
• Use a fanny pack to carry items with you around the
house. Place the phone inside there, just in case you fall and
need to call for help.
Ask for help. If not now, when? Remind yourself that
most people feel good about helping out. So when someone
says, “What can I do?” be specific. You might say something
like this: “I need help getting the dog walked twice a week.”
“A home-cooked meal tomorrow would be terrific.” “If I give
you a list, can you run to the store for me once a week?”
Will you need help with basic things like bathing and
transportation, but don’t have anyone at home who can help?
Ask the doctor, nurse, or social worker how to find trained
caregivers.
Safe-proof the bathroom. Unless you make a few
changes, this room can be downright dangerous.
• Consider buying an elevated toilet seat and a shower or
bath chair.
• Install grab bars vertically or horizontally. Don’t ever
use towel racks as grab bars.
• Add non-slip suction mats in the tub and a non-skid mat
outside the tub.
• Place soap and shampoo where you won’t need to reach
for it.
Remember that you can purchase some of these special
items in our store.
Prevent falls. Do what you can to remove tripping
hazards. Remove loose wires, cords and throw rugs in
walkways. Add extra lighting, for example, nightlights to
hallways and bathrooms. Keep your hands free when moving
from room to room.
Practice using crutches, a walker or wheelchair. Also, have
someone show you the safe way to go up and down stairs
and get in and out of the shower.
Follow instructions. After surgery, you’ll likely go
home with special instructions on incision care. To prevent
infections, make sure you understand how to care for your
incision. For example, call the doctor if you see pus or the
incision becomes really painful.
Also, take medications exactly as prescribed. If you have
questions about any of this, remember that we are here to
guide you in the proper use of your medications. Remember
that pain control can help you get moving, which can speed
your healing and help prevent complications. Let your doctor
and us know if pain medication isn’t working or is causing
side effects. There’s no reason to suffer in silence!
