10-year anniversary at their upcoming “Bubbly Bash” to be

Center for Performing Arts. Honorary Chairs John and
Shannon Favole and Dr. Robert and Julia Dattolo will assist
in hosting an exciting evening of cocktails, silent auction,
dining and dancing to the music of “After Dark.” Sponsors
for this special celebration of 10 years of compassion for local
cancer patients include: William C. Carroll; Mettler, Shelton,
Randolph, Massey, Carroll & Sterlacci, P.L.; and Charles and
Jean Fisher. Ticket prices are $175 for an individual ticket

Since its founding 10 years ago, Cancer Alliance of
Help & Hope Inc. has distributed over $1 million to over
1,000 local cancer patients. This money assists patients
demonstrating need with expenses of everyday living such
as rent, mortgages, utilities, car payments, auto and health
insurance, so they can concentrate on getting well instead of
having the stress of wondering if they can provide for their
families.
CAHH is a grassroots, volunteer-governed charitable
organization, dedicated to improving the quality of life
of local individuals and their families who are touched
by cancer, by providing need-based financial assistance,
information resources and access to services and support
groups in our community. Our vision is to insure a future
free of financial burdens for cancer patients.

prizes and souvenirs were given to the guests in attendance.
Among their guests was Gail Gill, director at Seabreeze
Publications; Stacie Sciolino, Golden Bear Realtor; David
Mallegol, a local book writer and local representatives from
the Northern Chamber of Commerce and the Better Business
Bureau.
Magland was born in 2002 in Jupiter, managed by their
owners and operated by an exclusive team of designers,
supervisors and a marketing director. Magland keeps
expanding their services and market areas. Martin and Palm
Beach counties have been their area of business since the
beginning.
When asked about their plans for the future, Magland
owner replied, “We really want to get stronger in Palm Beach
County. We love working here and this has been home to us
for many years; we are truly Floridians – we wouldn’t change
Florida for any other place!”
• Would you consider expanding
your business throughout Florida?
“Although it is a tempting
thought, we would like to get
stronger and grow bigger in the
Palm Beaches. There is such a
large market in this area and the
economy’s comeback is starting
to show, especially in the new
construction area.

Ten Years Of
Giving Back
To Habitat For
Humanity
Bob and Pat Bean brought a lifetime of volunteerism with
them when they moved to Jupiter Farms nearly 10 years
ago. While raising their two daughters in south Florida, Pat,
a school teacher, always volunteered with the Girl Scouts
and taught Sunday school and Bob, an engineer, volunteered
with the Kiwanis and Meals on Wheels. When they moved
here and joined Jupiter First Church they saw an ad in the
bulletin asking for volunteers to help out at the Habitat for
Humanity Thrift Store on Old Dixie Highway. They went to
check it out and are still there 10 years later.
yards?
“We see that all the time. Besides the new building we are
seeing, many of the locals are starting to remodel, expand
or improve their yards. The economy is getting better, home
pricing is coming back up and people want to add some value
to their homes before putting their houses on the market.
It really works well for the seller, the Realtor, the building
industry, the buyer, etc. ... it is a win-win situation for all of
us.”
If you wish to contact Magland for a free landscape
consultation, please call (561) 745-6756 or e-mail: info@

landscape designers.
Who Needs Permanent
Makeup?
Bob and Pat Bean
Every Friday morning you’ll see Bob sorting through
anything with an electrical cord or moving parts and Pat
sorting through the piles of children’s clothing donated to the
store each week. It’s their job to determine if the donations are
worthy of being put up for sale and assigning a price to them.
Bob says with a limited number of volunteers, they don’t
have time to perform a lot of repairs, so if an item doesn’t
work for the owner, it doesn’t work for Habitat for Humanity
either. One of the most interesting donations they’ve seen is
the day a woman came to the door with half a dozen brandnew men’s suits worth $1,000 each and a dozen new dress
shirts. She explained that she had just gotten married and
didn’t have room in her closet for them!
Bob and Pat love their work with Habitat for Humanity
because it’s something different every single week. The
people there are fun to be with and it provides a way for them
to give back to the community and interact with people. They
say the store manager, Cindy Capitanelli, is a delight and
very efficient. The customers just love her. The rest of their
spare time is spent enjoying their children and grandchildren,
gardening, playing bridge and traveling more than they ever
believed they would. They also volunteer at Jupiter First
Church and the Maltz Jupiter Theatre.
If you have some spare time, enjoy interacting with
the public or like working behind the scenes, Habitat for
Humanity can use your help. Contact Nicole Kiley, volunteer
coordinator at (561) 253-2080, Ext. 121 or volunteer@
habitatpbc.org, www.habitatpbc.org. Habitat for Humanity
of Palm Beach County brings people together to build homes,
communities and hope.
Everyone can benefit from permanent
makeup - everyone who desires a soft,
natural enhancement to their beauty. It is
especially beneficial to people who can't
wear cosmetics due to allergies and skin
sensitivities. It’s makeup that doesn’t “sweat
off" during exercise. People with fading
eyesight or unsteady hands can have perfect
makeup. And everyone who always wants to
look their best but doesn’t take time or hates
how makeup runs and fades should consider
permanent makeup.
Permanent cosmetic can be subtle or
dramatic depending on the effect you want.
Permanent makeup includes eyebrows,
eyeliner and lash enhancement, lip color with

youthfulness for the entire face.

“It’s spring fever. And
when you’ve got it... it
makes your heart ache, you
want it so!” – Mark Twain
Happy March!
This is a good time to
revisit and recommit to your
resolutions. March Madness
is a phenomenon that grips
the nation. This is a time
of awakening--and to help
you awaken--I’ve composed
a list of five SURE-FIRE WAYS TO RENEW YOUR
SPIRIT--and your heart--SINGLE OR NOT.
1. Don a New Look. Book an appointment at a trendy
salon and change your hair color or cut (good for men
or women). Search through magazines or when you see
someone with a style you admire, ask where he or she
goes. The better you look and feel, the more admirers you
will attract. If you are a man who is missing some or all
of his hair...don’t worry. Many women love bald men!
2. Enroll today for our “LUCKY IN LOVE” SPEED
DATING PARTY this month. You MUST be a Single,
Divorced, or Widowed adult from ages 25 to 85 to apply.
Luckily, we don’t take walk-ins. Our parties are separated
by age groups so don’t worry about being with someone
too young or too old. Everyone must wear something green
to this A List Singles Party. Surely your Spring Season will
be guaranteed to kick off with a special someone. Please
call today otherwise you may not get in.
3. Pick Yourself Up. Visit Dr. Alan Jacobson for some
solid counsel on injectables or face and neck procedures.
Finding a good plastic surgeon is an important process
to which all should give considerable thought. I highly
recommend Alan L. Jacobson, M.D. who is a boardcertified cosmetic surgeon in Jupiter. Mention This
Column to receive “special treatment.” Injectables are a
serious procedure and should be performed by a doctor
(561-624-0900).
4. I scream, you scream, we all scream for Ice
Cream!! The weather is warmer and it’s the perfect time
to visit your local ice cream parlor! This is a good idea to
combine with a movie date so you can enjoy some chit chat
over ice cream. I think it’s impossible to have a negative
thought in an ice cream parlor!
5. Try a new shade of lipstick Ladies. I enjoy this
pastime whenever the seasons change. For the more daring,
book an appointment at your favorite makeup counter
(Chanel, Mac, Lancome, Bobbi Brown, for example), and
have the pros show you the way!
This month, abandon the ordinary dull routines of
your life that are not working for you and access a deeper
wisdom through some bold and positive action. Two is
always better then one.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!!
Much Love,
Kelly xoxo

Home & Garden
Paradise In Your Own Backyard
By Gustavo Asp, President, Magland Landscape Design
A Butterfly Garden
Butterflies are like
flowers floating in the air. To
make your garden inviting
to them means adding a
certain magic to your special
backyard paradise. A garden
with butterflies is a healthy,
balanced and productive
garden. In addition to their
beauty, the insects provide
us the service of pollinating
the flowers we grow in our
gardens.
Because, by design, butterflies are flyers it is not possible
to create a permanent home for these magnificent creatures
in your yard, only a way-station where they may stop by to
refresh themselves during their everlasting journey. But by
providing the carbohydrate-rich drinks they need for their
energy intensive flight and the foods their children need to
develop into their parents image, they may visit your little
secret paradise to allow you to enjoy their almost ephemeral
beauty.
These are simple helpful hints in how to create a butterfly garden:
• Provide a combination of adult nectar sources and
larval host plants – attracts maximum variety of butterfly
species; encourages butterflies to remain in your yard, reproduce
and build populations instead of just passing through; allows
gardener to appreciate all life history stages.
• Incorporate native plants into the landscape whenever
possible – most larval host plants are natives; adapted to region;
produces a small but representative extension of the natural
ecosystem; attracts other wildlife.
• The plants you select determine the wildlife value of
your yard – the level of maintenance required, how much
money you’ll be spending on water or electricity to run a pump,
and how much fertilizer or pesticide may be required. Plant
selection also determines how long your landscape will last.
• Create horizontal and vertical heterogeneity – choose
plants that have different heights and growth habits; creates
numerous microclimates, which in turn appeal to a greater
diversity of butterfly species;
provides shelter; creates levels/
strata of feeding opportunities.
• Aim for a consistent host plant and floral venue
throughout the growing season – choose plants that have
different blooming times; ensures that garden remains attractive
and productive as long as possible; provides food for butterflies
during periods of low natural availability.
• Provide a number of different flower colors – different
butterfly species are attracted to different flower colors so
include yellow, orange, white and blue flowers as well as reds,
pinks and purples.
• Plant in shade as well as full sun – appeals to more
butterfly species; many forest species prefer shadier locations.
• Plant in groupings – aesthetically pleasing; provides
masses of color; more apparent in landscape; allows larvae to
locate additional food resources in event of shortage.
Choose appropriate plants for each location – understand
each plant requires basic water, light and soil requirements to
grow to its maximum potential.

Maltz Jupiter Theatre Announces
2014/15 Season Of Shows
Let The Maltz Jupiter Theatre Spark Your Imagination Next Season!
The 2014/15 season will begin with The Foreigner (Oct.
26 – Nov. 9), an uproariously funny adventure set in a rural
Georgia fishing lodge that follows a shy man who adopts a
persona as a non-English-speaking foreigner. We continue
with Fiddler on the Roof (Dec. 2-21), the Tony Award®winning classic musical that follows dairyman Tevye as he
fights to maintain his family and heritage. Next up is The
Wiz (Jan. 13 – Feb. 1), the spirited, rock gospel and soul
Tony Award®-winning musical based on the classic tale
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz – perfect for the entire family.
Then join us for Glengarry Glen Ross (Feb. 8 – Feb. 22),
David Mamet’s Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece about
a group of tough-talking Chicago real estate agents who
will do anything to close a deal. Our incredible season ends
with a four-week run of the Tony
Award®-winning phenomenon Les
Misérables (March 10 – April 5), an
epic and inspiring production not to
be missed!
“The Maltz Jupiter Theatre has
the power to spark your imagination,
with incredible Broadway caliber
productions and events,” said
Andrew Kato, the theatre’s producing
artistic director. “We invite everyone
to enjoy our blockbuster musicals,
family entertainment, comedies
and riveting dramas. We have also
selected a fantastic lineup of brand
new limited engagements for our
audiences to enjoy.”
Currently celebrating its 11th
season, the theatre was recently
nominated for 19 Carbonell Awards,
South Florida’s highest honor for
artistic excellence.
To celebrate and announce its
2014/15 season, the Theatre held a cocktail party on Feb. 10,
featuring a unique photo opportunity for attendees: photos
with models from West Palm Beach-based Garbage Gone
Glam, showcasing two extra-special dresses tailored from
theatre marketing materials.
As part of the big announcement, guests dined on
desserts themed to each of the theatre’s upcoming shows:
English tea cookies (The Foreigner), Rugelach (Fiddler on
the Roof), a glittery green cupcake tower (The Wiz), a cake
featuring a suit and tie design in frosting (Glengarry Glen
Ross) and éclairs and Napoleons (Les Miserables).
In addition to its season productions (not included in
subscriptions), the theatre will present an exciting lineup of
all-new limited engagements and several popular favorites.
New shows include the unplugged folk-rock duo White
Acres (Nov. 21), the American jazz fusion band Spyro Gyra
In Your Community on page 8

In Your Community from page 7
(Dec. 8), the Motown group Forever Motown (Feb. 27) and
the high-energy Abba tribute Abbamania (Feb. 23).
“Our theatre has something for everyone with our
new season of special events and concerts,” said Jennifer
Sardone-Shiner, the theatre’s director of marketing. “In
addition to popular annual favorites, we have an entirely
new lineup of brand-new concerts, including the traditional
Celtic music and dance of Tony Kenny’s Christmastime in
Ireland, the falsetto and smooth harmonies of the Atlantic
City Boys and the songbook of Frank Sinatra with Steve
Lippia’s Centennial Sinatra Tribute.”
November will bring an extra-special benefit concert
featuring Broadway icon and beloved singer, dancer, actor
and Tony Award® winner Chita Rivera (Nov. 15), who
will leave audiences spellbound in a musical journey back
through her illustrious career featuring hits from West Side
Story, Bye Bye Birdie, Sweet Charity, Chicago, Kiss of the
Spider Woman and Nine.
Back for its final performance, the theatre will produce
a contemporary retelling of the children’s classic Alice in
Wonderland with the spectacular family-friendly musical

“New leadership means
new opportunities to grow,”

Over the past year,
Trone has proven her

“We look forward to Trone guiding some of our
relationships with other local organizations by integrating
environmental themes in the art projects our students create,”
Deits said.
Trone graduated from Colby College with a Bachelor of
Arts in English Literature.
A Jersey girl who was raised with Manhattan in her
backyard, she spent her 20s and early 30s on the coast of
Maine. She raised her three children in Burlington, Vt., and
moved to Tequesta in 2005.
“I invite everyone to stop by the School of Art, see what
we do, then enroll in a class,” Trone said.

Epicuriosity
What Wine Goes With Corned Beef And Cabbage?
By Glenn Sudnick, Certified Sommelier
I know what you’re
thinking; everybody drinks
beer with this traditional
dish.
Not necessarily, some of
my guests will still prefer to
have a glass of wine.
Search on the Internet
and you will encounter
many interpretations.
The boiled or braised
corn beef is filled with
spices such as pepper, allspice, salt, thyme, garlic,
coriander, clove and bay leaves. The term “corned” refers
to the large salt crystals that are used in the preservation
process. It originated in the days when refrigeration did
not exist and foods were cured or pickled.
The cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable (a
vegetable from the mustard family, e.g.
broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts).
These two combinations can be very
challenging to pair with the correct wine.
Some will suggest an Alsatian
Gewurztraminer of high intensity with
exotic spices and fruit aromas of Lychee,
pineapple, peach jam and dried apricot.
Others will suggest a Sauvignon Blanc
because it cuts through the salt and fattiness
of the corned beef.
I am not too sure I want to choose my
wine because it cuts through my meal.
I have seen recommendations like a light
Beaujolais made from handpicked gamay
grapes. This wine is full of fruit flavors,
youthful, easy to drink and is a St. Patrick’s
Day favorite.
From Italian Chianti to the Portuguese Vino Verde
There can be many interpretations of wine choices with
this traditional dish.
I pondered, yes, I said pondered. I find myself doing that
a lot and came up with a wine that is great with our corned
beef and cabbage. The 2012 Franciscan “Equilibrium” has
a vibrant fruit-driven aroma of white peach, guava with
hints of lime. It’s a blend of 72 percent Sauvignon Blanc
that allows for structure and a crisp backbone. There is
17 percent Chardonnay that is fermented in neutral oak
barrels sur lie which adds richness and complexity. Finally,
the jasmine, honeysuckle aromas are prevalent with the
addition of 11 percent Muscat.
The flavors are round bodied on the palate with
nectarine and stone fruit. The finish is long and satisfying
with a hint of sweetness. “Equilibrium” lives up to the
name with harmony and balance. This wine is limited
with only 1,503 cases produced, so if you think you might
enjoy this wonderful wine, don’t wait.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day,
Glenn

future,” said Katie Deits, executive director of the Tequesta
museum and art school.
Sam and Jill Plummer
Guests can immerse themselves in 1964 American
popular culture, dance to Motown music by the popular band
Memory Lane, and look back to the Mod and mini-skirt
fashions, American muscle cars and the space race.
“It’s funny how what was popular then is popular now,”
Deits said, citing the current resurgence of art and fashion
from that period.
This year’s ball, chaired by Sam and Jill Plummer, will
highlight those themes.

Pat Deshong and Marcia Dowd and their business
review keep their fingers on the pulse of what's happening,
where people are going and what they are doing. They aren't
just going to tell you what they liked and respected about
this business, but what other randomly selected customers
liked as well. We are interested in what their customers have
to say and share their comments with you.
According To The Divas.... We knew very little about
Trovare Treasures before meeting with Lisa Emalfarb,
Proprietor. When we first walked into her shop we entered
the most elegant yet comfortable dining room one might
envision in the most prestigious of homes. The table was
not just set it was adorned. The linens, china, flatware and
crystal glistened under the most magnificent chandelier.
Every detail down to the napkin holders would captivate the
most discerning of guests. The walls are lined with displays
of beautiful dishes, flatware, stemware napkin rings with
accessories and giftware priced from $5.00 to $5,000.00.
One of our favorite items was a beautiful bud vase priced
at just $20 resembling a Lalique original.
Lisa created a business enabling her to use her interior
decorating background with her passion to entertain and
bring people together. She defines it as “Tablescaping.” So
by day, Trovare, in Italian meaning “to find,” is a retail store
specializing in tabletop, giftware, stemware and accessories.
In the evening this beautiful setting is available for private
dinner parties with the food being prepared by Krave's
renowned Chef Michael. It is available for intimate dinner
parties accommodating up to 12 guests. The couple are each
other's most loyal supporters in life and in business.
When asked how they met, she told us how she was
aware of his culinary skills as executive chef at the then
nearby Jupiter Island Grill. Shortly after opening she
was asked to organize an elegant dinner party for a well
known friend in Palm Beach. When in need of a caterer
she immediately thought of Chef Michael. Her interest in
“Tablescaping” and his extraordinary culinary skills made
for a winning combination and a successful party. (NY
Housewife) Ramona Singer was the guest of honor. Ramona,
known for her blunt honesty raved about the food and decor.
That was the start of their successful business collaboration
and the rest is history.....
Special Features:
The most unique bridal registry service available.
Impressive selection of:
Dishes, flatware, stemware, linens, napkin holders,
placemats giftware, decorating accessories priced from
$5.00 to $5,000.

What The Divas Say about Trovare:
No one knows better than the Divas how difficult it is
to host a private event in your home or even in your club
without the possibility of offending someone who was
not included. Here is the answer to that dilemma! This is
a place for a unique impressive gathering whether it be
an afternoon tea, bridal shower, business lunch or dinner,
birthday celebration or dinner party. As the photo shows, Pat
already made a purchase of an ideal sized wine glass from
the gift boutique area. This is the perfect place to purchase
a unique gift if you are looking for an item as listed above.
Lisa will be only to happy to assist you. Oh and when you
go, please be sure to say the Divas sent you!
The Divas keep their fingers on the pulse of what is happening in local restaurants and businesses
and share their perspective and customer opinions in their monthly column. If you have a comment,

customers liked as well. “We're interested in the flavor of

Close convenient ample parking.
We Sampled......while we were waiting for our salads,
Chef insisted we try a tasting of his signature appetizer...Pear
& blue cheese pasta purses, toasted walnuts, Gorgonzola
Asiago cream sauce. It was incredible! Marcia, tends to
shy away from trying something that sounds unusual, took
a bite and devoured it.
Pat's entree was one of the evening's specials: Hawaiian
swordfish lightly grilled in a light beurre blanc white wine
sauce and served over saffron rice and asparagus. It was
cooked just right and delicious!
Marcia selected grilled tenderloin of beef, Pommes Anna
(thinly sliced potatoes layered with Parmesan and olive oil),
asparagus, with melted Saint Andre Brie, Blackberry Demi
glacé cooked to perfection and superior.
Of course if there is chocolate on the menu, according
to Marcia “there is always room for dessert” and this one
was extraordinary. A Belgium chocolate Lava cake with
homemade gelato.
Don't Take Our Word....Randomly selected Customers...
Maria, Jane, Dee seasonal residents from Jupiter Island
and celebrating a birthday.....This was the second time they
had eaten there. On their first visit they were concerned with
the size of the dining room. They were pleasantly surprised
to find that small became cozy and was actually a positive.
Dee who hails from NJ and Jupiter Island chose the pork
tenderloin for the second time. We learned later that was one
of their award winning dishes. Maria, the birthday girl from
Albany loved the Hog Snapper. She enjoys it well cooked
and was surprised to find out how moist it was. Jane, visiting
from NJ, said she wished she had ordered the pasta purses
as an entree because they were that delicious and had never
had them before. They intend to be frequent guests at Krave.
What The Divas said about this dining experience...
We know from your feedback that you appreciate our
candor so we must share our
first encounter with Chef
Michael. At first glance
we thought we were being
“punked” or set up. His
resemblance to Billy Joel
is uncanny. Pat seriously
believed he was going to
break into and start singing “bottle of red, bottle of white”
at any second. We were happy to hear that we were not the
only ones to think that. He said it happens every day. While
he may not own any Grammy's, he is an award winning
chef and two time recipient of the Vita Nova Award. He
graduated from the prestigious Culinary Institute of America
in Hyde Park NY with degrees in both culinary and pastry
arts and worked at many noteworthy restaurants in NYC.
Most of all though, he credits the training he received at
an early age in his grandmother’s kitchen. He even uses
her cavatelli machine when making fresh pasta. While he
could easily replace it with a more state of the art device,
it enables him to feel her presence and serve as a reminder
for the passion in him she inspired. Krave is a true family
experience- mother, sister and daughter work in the kitchen,
son is a member of the waitstaff and Lisa from Trovare is not
only considered a business partner but partner in life. We can
honestly say we experienced this warm interaction between
staff and all of us dining there that evening. We thought that
the quality of foods -and service would bear a much higher
priced menu. However, we felt with appetizers ranging in
price from $8 to $15 and entrees priced from $24 to $38, it
was our opinion that it was reasonable. When asked what
Krave meant, Chef said, “A desire for all the good things in
life, not just the
food.” Chef
Michael is
accomplishing
that and more.
Please be sure
to ask for him
and let him
know the Divas
sent you!

Hearing Solutions
Surprise! There Are Medical Conditions That Will Cause Hearing Loss
By Murray Steinfeld, Audioprosthologist
Many conditions and
diseases not obviously
connected with the ear
can still result in hearing
concerns. Some of these
conditions are quite
common such as diabetes
and hypertension (high
blood pressure), both effects
roughly one-third of the
U.S. population. Diabetes
and hypertension impair the
cardiovascular system and
as a result the nerves and
blood vessels of the inner ear can become damaged and
the hearing diminished.
Hearing loss of this kind usually occurs due to problems
associated with the inner ear (cochlea) and is referred to
as “Sensorineural.” This type hearing loss results from
damage to the nerve pathways from the inner ear to the brain
(the auditory nerve) or to the central processing centers
of the brain. Usually this is permanent and irreversible.
Sensorineural hearing loss can generally be treated
successfully using hearing aids or if very profound with
cochlear implants.
Let’s examine certain key diseases that can cause hearing
loss.
Diabetes: About 11 percent of our population has
diabetes. Those who have diabetes suffer from a reduced
efficiency of neurons, hair cells and other cell types in the
auditory system, which leads to sensorineural hearing loss.
Shingles: (Herpes Zoster) caused by the same virus
that causes chicken pox. The CDC estimates one in three
Americans will develop this disease. Approximately 50
percent are over 60 years of age. When it affects the ear,
this virus can also result in facial paralysis with symptoms
of dizziness and hearing loss.
Hypertension: Approximately one-third of adults
in the United States have high blood pressure. Several
studies evidence that hypertension is associated with risk
of sensorineural hearing loss.
Regretfully, people seem to believe that hearing loss
affects only senior age people. Absolutely wrong! Age is
no longer the major factor. Noise is supplanting age as a
major factor. Listening to music using ear-buds in our ears
has had a significant effect on our younger population’s
loss of hearing.
Other diseases that cause hearing loss, though some
seem to have been taken under control, still affect a certain
percentage of our population. They are: hypothyroidism,
which affects about 5 percent of Americans. This is either
congenital or develops later in life and can cause sudden
hearing loss. Meningitis is an inflammation of the meninges
(coverings) of the brain and spinal cord and can potentially
cause hearing loss. Over the past decades, vaccinations
have successfully reduced the incidence to about half. Yet
the CDC still estimates that 3,000 to 6,000 cases occur
annually. Multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis are
Answer for
Crossword Puzzle
diseases that should also be included and the hearing loss
factor is just another consequence those affected are forced
to deal with.
Research has shown repeatedly that maintaining a
healthy weight, by eating a sensible diet and keeping
physically active can limit ones risk for diabetes and
hypertension. Getting up-to-date immunizations and early
treatment of any of these diseases can lower the chances
that one of these conditions results in a hearing loss.

Calcium
By Dan and Liz Brumer, R.Phs., Tequesta Drugs and Compounding Pharmacy
Ta k i n g c a l c i u m
– either through diet
or supplements – is
a little like making
deposits into a bone
bank account. If you
keep a healthy balance
of this mineral, your
body is able to build
and maintain bone,
which is a living, everchanging tissue. Not only does calcium keep bones and
teeth healthy, it also helps with clotting blood, sending
signals between nerves and regulating heart rhythms.
But if you fail to make calcium “deposits,” your body
starts to pull calcium out of your bones and “overdraws
your account.” Worse than a painful overdraft fee,
however, this calcium imbalance can cause porous,
weakened bones. This condition is called osteoporosis.
In the United States, it affects eight million women and
two million men, resulting in 1.5 million fractures each
year.
How much calcium do you need? It varies, depending
on your age. Your preteen or teen needs more. Banking
calcium at this stage is really like making an early
investment in “retirement.”
The National Academy of Sciences recommends:
• 1,300 mg/day for children ages 9–18
• 1,000 mg/day for men and women ages 19–50
• 1,200 mg/day for men and women ages 50 or older
• Some guidelines suggest 1,500 mg for postmenopausal
women who don’t take estrogen. That’s because – due to
a loss of estrogen at menopause – women start to have
bone loss earlier than men.
If you take calcium supplements, it’s best to divide
the dose. Take half in the morning and half at night. Let
us know if you have questions about different types of
calcium. We can also discuss any medications that might
interfere with calcium absorption. And we can give you
tips on how to handle any calcium side effects, such as
constipation or indigestion. To limit side effects, be sure
to take no more than 2,000 mg daily.
Foods rich in calcium include dairy products, dark
leafy greens, dried beans, nuts and calcium-fortified foods,
which may include orange juice, cereal and bread. Some
recent studies suggest that food sources of calcium may
be better than supplements. Last year, a study reported
on in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed
that participants who got most of their calcium from diet
had better bone density than those who got most it from
supplements. It’s too soon to know why, but it might have
to do with better absorption or other food compounds that
enhance bone health.
What else can you do to prevent bone loss as you age?
Try weight-bearing exercise, such as walking or running,
and get enough vitamin D. This vitamin helps your body
absorb calcium. To get enough of it, you can spend at least
15 minutes in the sun several times a week. You can also
take supplements or get food sources of vitamin D – in
salmon, tuna or fortified milk, margarine, or cereal. Try
to get 800 International Units (IU) daily, but no more than
2,000 IU, which can be toxic.

Career Or College
Major Help
For Teens
By Jim Forgan, Ph.D.
Licensed School Psychologist
Many high school and
early college students don’t
know what they want to
do with their lives and
wander without direction.
Are you concerned about
your teenager’s future and
wonder what type of career,
occupation, or college major
is the best match for his or
her personality? Is your teen
floundering or uncertain
about which career suits his or her personality? Give your
teen direction and a focus by having them taking a career
inventory and personality inventory with me or my staff. This
informative process can help match his or her interest to a
suitable career or college major. We offer a career-occupation
inventory for teenagers ages 13-21 (eighth grade through
college).
This process is $399, takes two hours and includes:
1. an interview
2. a career inventory-assessment
3. a personality inventory
4. a written report of results
5. next steps to take
The process begins with a parent and teen interview to
gather information. Next the teen works with a staff member
to complete the inventories. The process wraps up with a
debriefing with the parent and teen to give understanding
and help everyone get on the same page. The teen and parent
get a written report and a list of next steps. Best of all, the
teen has a direction, knowledge, and a better understanding
of him or herself.
Dr. Forgan is a licensed school psychologist and offers
gifted testing, dyslexia, ADHD, processing testing, and
career inventories. He has free resources on his Web site:

Rat In A
Hot Tin Dryer
By Jodi Cross
I consider myself to be
a modern day independent
woman. I never really
bought into role and gender
stereotypes. People might
describe me as outgoing,
self-sufficient even a problem
solver. So, when my husband
started a project in Miami I
knew it would be a transition
but felt like I could handle
anything that came my way.
On a cold day in January, the second day Rich was gone; my
steely independence would be tested. While running a load
of clothes, I heard a strange scratching noise coming from
the dryer. It sounded like a zipper banging on the inside. I
went about my business and never thought much more about
it. The next day a foul odor started permeating the air in the
laundry room. That’s when I knew I had a problem. The smell
of death surrounded me and that death was in the form of a
brown Rattus Norveqicus.
The rodent, I later found out, had journeyed down my roof
vent and tumbled all the way to the bottom where the hose
meets the dryer connection in my laundry room. My husband
is an accomplished, plumber, electrician, AC technician and
all-around handyman. Thus, I never had the need to call
anyone for help with such problems. Clearly, I needed help
and knew I was out of my league. I got ahold of my neighbor,
who referred me to his exterminating company and I waited
for them to come to my rescue. When the exterminating
company arrived, they searched the place and declared it
rodent-free but wouldn’t touch the dryer. “Out of scope, we
don’t do dryers,” they declared, as they zoomed off! Imagine
my horror. There was something in my laundry room and I
needed to get it out!
After the exterminator left, I think I had a small breakdown
and texted my husband to call me when he got a chance,
saying it was nothing urgent. But it was getting more urgent
by the minute. I ran across an old homeowners’ list of service
contractors and started calling. About 10 calls later, I finally
got ahold of a dryer cleaning company. I shared my plight,
pleaded and he agreed to come out and take a look, but said
it would cost me. At this point I would have paid a great deal
to remove whatever was causing the smell. I quarantined the
area but before I did, a large hideous green fly emerged and
started buzzing about. Disgusting!
My knight in shining armor arrived in a white van around
3 p.m. Together we tipped the dryer over, me tipping it from
the front while he could peer into the vent. When he finally
got behind it, he screamed, “There it is, I see it and it’s
huge.” Now we were both screaming! What a scene, he left
me holding the dryer tipped back toward me while he went
to his work van to retrieve a gas mask. Where was my gas
mask? Gagging he retrieved the vermin from the hose vent
and carried it outside. Traumatized, I began running about
cleaning, lighting candles, spraying Lysol, mopping the floor.
I threw the mop out. I cleaned with Clorox again, and then
threw another mop out. Our new dryer had become tainted
forever in my mind. I didn’t know if I could ever go back in
that room again.
My new best friend from Green Home’s and I had a few
laughs after it was all over. Having a sense of humor about
such things always helps my disposition. Never in a million
years did I think my first test would be a rat plague. When
it comes to removing vermin, I concur … it’s a man’s world
and they can have it!

March
By Carole Lynn Grant
This month can bring you
powerful support in fulfilling
long-term goals and plans.
Try to get all paperwork
and obligations caught up
this month, because one of
the most powerful eclipses
in history will happen next
month and it can be felt by
all signs. Eclipses bring parts
of your life to an end, where
you need to make a change
while at the same time opening new doors. You’ll definitely
have to step out of your comfort zone and try to make logical
decisions, rather than being ruled by emotions.
Aries (March 31 to April 20)
The past is calling you; you can see former friends and
loves or may be able to finish a project that failed in the
past. This is your time to be industrious and to heal family
situations when you can. Say yes to last minute invitations.
Aquarius (January 21 to February 19)
Invest in yourself; money that has been owed to you for
a long time can be paid now. You may want to make a move,
but it’s better to stay put for a while longer. Venus in your sign
can surround you with love. Take time to enjoy the moment.
Pisces (February 20 to March 20)
Decide and declare what you want to accomplish; this is
your victory year. You may be preoccupied with a difficult
situation, but also open your eyes to the gifts in front of you.
You can effectively change bad
habits. Begin a new health
routine.

in the area of your life where you want to position yourself.
Pay attention to your health, mental and emotional, if you
can take a vacation or make a career change.
Gemini (May 22 to June 21)
Power drive; you should apply your energy to position
yourself in your career or your status in the community; there
are people who will pay good money for your many skills.
Love can arrive when you least expect it. Handle resources
efficiently.
Cancer (June 22 to July 23)
Possible travel; you may receive an unexpected invitation to
visit a friend or family member; by all means go, you will have
a great time. You can study something new effectively. Watch
power plays at work, new resources are available to you.
Leo (July 24 to August 23)
Be careful with your finances; there can be sudden
unexpected expenses. It’s a great time to change your
living situation. There can be an amazing break through
with a significant other; compromise to win. Pick up a long
forgotten hobby.
Virgo (August 24 to September 23)
Partners or close friends will need your attention; this
will prove to be rewarding. Take extra time with all legal
issues. You can find a secondary career or finally decide
to write your book. A hobby can turn out to be a paying
situation. Enjoy!

A new career is calling you; do what makes your heart
happy. Mars will be in your Sign for months, giving you
extra energy to accomplish difficult tasks. Try to establish a
home away from home, spend time with loved ones. Listen
to partners.
Scorpio (October 24 to November 22)
Your magnetic appeal is blossoming; if you are single,
by all means get out of the house and play. Issues from the
past demand your attention; you can come out on top of a
difficult situation. Take time to communicate clearly in
business matters.

Sagittarius (November 23 to December 21)
Time to organize your home; clear out your files and
cabinets. You are in the process of laying a new foundation
for your life. There may be some difficulty with partners or
family members and everyone thinks they are right. Get a
new car.
Capricorn (December 22 to January 20)
Be very detail oriented; all areas of communication are
wide open. Network prolifically. Tell your friends how much
you appreciate them. There can be some conflict between
home and career. Unexpected money arrives at the right
time.
