families who want a

more Jewish tradi-

tional burial. Along

with all this growth,

Beth David has also

begun construction on

a new mausoleum

building. “Our goal at

Beth David is to grow

and expand to meet

the needs of the com-

munity and families

that we serve. As long

as the needs of our

families continue, we

will keep growing and

developing.” Says

Marc Rubin, Area

Sales Director.

Levitt-Weinstein Me-

morial Chapels &

Cemeteries along with

Blasberg Rubin-Zilbert

have been involved in

the South Florida

community for over

half a century. What

distinguishes Levitt-

Weinstein & Blasberg

Rubin-Zilbert is that

these South Florida

institutions are still op-

erated by the third

generation of the orig-

inal founding families.

Life is uncertain,

and it's important that

the final resting place

of a loved one be

agreed upon. Our full-

service funeral homes

and cemetery are

proud to be independ-

ently owned and lo-

cally operated. We are

not a public company

traded on the stock

market.

Michael Blasberg,

General Manager,

said, "We have direc-

tors with over 100

years of combined ar-

ranging experience

and are sensitive to

the needs of families.

We strive to build on

our long-term relation-

ships and create new

ones that will stand

the test of time."

The services pro-

vided by Levitt-Wein-

stein Memorial

Chapels & Cemetery

along with Blasberg

Rubin-Zilbert, though,

dedicated to the Jew-

ish community, are

available to people

from all walks of life.

Although our

cemetaries are strictly

for Jewish burials, our

funeral homes are

available to service all

faiths.

Marc Rubin, Area

Sales Director, said,

"Whether your loved

one is staying locally

or transferring out of

state, the funeral

home is here for the

needs of all people

that we serve. The ad-

vantage of being pri-

vately owned and

managed is that deci-

sions can be made

quickly."

"People make

choices in life and

plan ahead for many

things," Rubin says.

"When a death oc-

curs, why place the

burden on your family

to make those eternal

decisions for you?

What if unforeseen sit-

uations arise, wouldn't

you feel better know-

ing you made your

plans beforehand?"

Shari Bradley, Mar-

keting Director, said,

"One of the benefits of

dealing with us NOW

is that you're planning

in advance, saving

money and relieving

your family of stress

by having to make the

last minute decisions

when you’re not nec-

essarily thinking ra-

tionally."

"Approximately 90%

of the families we

service have been

pre-arranged," Rubin

said. When you think

about it logically, it

makes sense because

it is just another part

of Estate Planning,

like your Will; and you

can handle your fu-

neral and cemetery

wishes at the same

time with us."

Rubin goes on to

say,"What are you

going to do when a

death occurs? It's im-

portant that each per-

son has a

pre-arranged plan. A

person can set up a fi-

nancial plan paid out

over a period of time

with no interest

charges. One day you

will need it, so why

wait for that day to

suddenly come?

Long-term planning

locks in at today's

price and protects

against inflation."

Blasberg states,

"There are no two fu-

neral plans the same.

Increasingly, the

Chapel handles spe-

cial requests such as

"Personalized Funer-

als" that celebrate the

life of the person.

In a matter of speak-

ing, death is a fact of

life and in those chal-

lenging moments you

want a family there to

comfort you, to love,

grieve, and remember

your spirit. "LET OURFAMILY TREATYOUR FAMILY LIKEOUR OWN."

HALLANDALEBEACH - June 1marked the first day ofhurricane season. It ishard to believe that 20years have passedsince hurricane Andrewhit South Florida with avengeance. Since thenresidents, cities and firstresponders have takenmajor steps in preparingour communities to pre-vent the tragic loss oflives and the major lossof properties. Warningsystems have been im-proved, Florida buildingcodes have been up-graded, citizen emer-gency response teamshave been establishedand a multitude of tech-nology and resources tolearn how to preparehave been developedand made available.

Over the past yearswe have been very for-tunate not to have hada major strike here inour city. This time ofyear is when elected of-ficials like me begin tolose sleep over con-cerns for the safety ofour residents and theneed to ensure thateveryone is prepared.Many of our homes andbuildings have beenhere for many years.Some of the olderhomes may be at riskfor losing roofs and win-dows, but we haveworked it the Commu-nity Redevelopment

Agency to encourageresidents to install hurri-cane shutters. Throughthe CRA and City grantprogram funds areavailable to harden yourhome or condo. Wealso provide grant as-sistance within our CRAfor new roofs and otherimprovements to bringhomes up to code.

We all know how im-portant it is to physicallysecure our homes toprevent wind damage. Itis also important toclear our yards of debrisand trim back trees. Byfollowing stronger build-ing codes and properpreparations we can se-cure and protect ourproperty. My biggestconcern that keeps meawake at night asMayor is FLOODING.Our residents, particu-larly those living in theNorth East and South-west sections of ourcity, have seen first first-hand what damage can

occur from flooding.The last major eventwas not even from ahurricane, but exces-sive rain.

The City has takensteps to address flood-ing through temporarypumping stations.These pumping stationsare monitored weeklyand have been suc-cessful to date in ad-dressing flooding. Apermanent pumping in-frastructure will be putinto place and com-pleted within the nextyear funded through mylobbying efforts inWashington and thehard work of Staff. As acoastal city, HallandaleBeach still has the con-cern of a large stormsurge if a major hurri-cane hits this area. Wemust all be preparedand heed the hurricanewarnings and evacua-tion notices.

This Tuesday, June12, our City will besponsoring our AnnualHurricane Prepared-ness Forum. The eventwill take place at ourCommunity CulturalCenter from 6 PM to 9PM. There are specialevening presentationsand plenty of informa-tion to help every resi-dent in theirpreparations. It is time!Make sure you’repreparing your suppliesand your emergency

plan. Please come outand help us help you. Ifyou cannot attend,please feel free to visitour city’s website andBroward County's web-site which are full ofhelpful information. Indi-viduals with specialneeds should makesure they register nowto ensure in the eventthey need to evacuatethe can be accepted tothe special needs shel-ter.

Over the past monthsthe media has beencovering the newFlorida voter registra-tion laws. As early asthis week the court sys-tem has put a hold onthe state's efforts topurge the voting files.

While these issues areplaying out, every votershould be confirmingtheir registration. Everyregistered voter in Hal-landale should havetheir registration. Somevoters should have re-ceived the new votingcard due to the factpolling areas havechanged in the city.Some have closed andothers have moved.You can check your sta-tus on line. You canalso register on line.You can even call tocheck your status orregister at 954-357-7370. It is important thatif you have moved tomake sure you changeyour voter registration.You may be able to vote

by provisional ballot, butit is better to be up todate to guarantee yourvote is counted. Thebest way to vote is bymail. The supervisor’soffice is actually pro-moting absentee ballotsand you can request aballot on line or byphone. With all thechanges this year,every individual must dotheir part to protect theirrights and their vote!

(ARA) - As the weatherwarms up, garage salesbegin appearing all overthe U.S. Garage salesare a great way to cleanout clutter while makingsome extra dollars forhome improvements,bills, vacations or even"retail therapy."

Marcela Iannini, depart-ment chair of Advertisingand Design & MediaManagement at Miami In-ternational University ofArt & Design, says,"Garage sales are greatopportunity to employbasic marketing princi-ples in a fun way; a littleinnovation and creativitygo a long way to maxi-mize sales."

"It's important to startwith the basics of market-ing - the four P's - price,product, promotion and

place. In garage sales itworks best to think of theproduct as the garagesale itself and the itemsto be sold as productlines or brands of thatproduct," adds CherylPilchik, Advertising fac-ulty at The Art Institute ofPhiladelphia.

Dr. Larry Stultz, depart-ment chair of Advertisingand Web Design & Inter-active Media at The ArtInstitute of Atlanta-De-catur, a branch of The ArtInstitute of Atlanta,agrees. "It is imperativeto use the same thinkingretailers use to maximizethe visibility and sales op-portunities for a garagesale." Below are some helpful

suggestions from Iannini,Pilchik and Stultz onmaking the best of your

garage sale: * Product and price:Product mix is importantin retailing. You can eitherfocus on one type ofproduct (kids' toys or gar-den tools, for instance) ora broad mix of products.Study sales in yourneighborhood to seewhat works best. Checkout the prices, too. Youshould consider not onlythe original cost, but alsowhat others charge atsales like yours. Ratherthan use a lot of time indi-vidually pricing each item,consider grouping likeitems together on largetables, posting the sameprice for all items on thattable - like retailers do. * Place (scheduling/loca-tion): Think about a high-traffic area - retailers paya premium for high-traffic

locations. Perhaps youcan team up with severalneighbors and choosethe house that has themost street visibility.Knowing your target mar-ket is paramount in timingyour sale. Considerscheduling with other ac-tivities in your neighbor-hood - art shows orcommunity events willhelp draw additional traf-fic. * Promotion (advertis-ing/marketing): A suc-cessful garage salerequires careful planningand promotion usingproven advertising strate-gies to make your salestand out. One success-ful strategy is choosing atheme related to theitems to be sold and car-rying out the theme in allaspects of the sale. For

example, if most of theitems to be sold are fromthe 1980s, you'd play 80smusic, have everyoneworking at the sale dressin 80s style and use 80selements in your flyers.

Whatever your theme,consider the following topromote your sale: 1. Neighborhood signsand flyers, placed onlocal business, PTA andschool/church bulletinboards - and where per-mitted, on street cornersor in yards. 2. Local newspaper list-ings and online listingslike craigslist.org. 3. A social networking fanpage with an event forthe garage sale invitingfriends and family. 4. Your own Facebookand Twitter pages to in-

form your "friends" and"followers" about yourevent. 5. Facebook, Twitter, In-stagram and Pinterest onthe day of the sale to dis-tribute special offers,share photos of items forsale or offer incentives forreferring fans or cus-tomers. Give your garage sale a

facelift to keep it freshand appealing. Borrowingeffective strategies andtactics used in the mer-chandising and advertis-ing industries to engagethe customer and com-municate with them ontheir terms will help to en-sure your success.

HOLLYWOOD -Downtown Hollywoodhas become a livemusic hotspot, thanksto the concerted effortsof city officials andbusiness owners whoshare a vision for thehistoric arts and enter-tainment district as avibrant live music des-tination.

As part of MayorPeter Bober's initiativeto create a "centralizedhub for live music” thathas been lacking inSouth Florida, citycommissioners on May2 approved new regu-lations that make iteasier for downtownvenues in the LiveMusic District to obtainan extended-hoursliquor license. The newpermitting process af-fords a lower fee andallows establishmentsthat serve food to re-main open and sell al-coholic beverages two

hours later, until 4a.m., if they providelive musical entertain-ment for at least threehours a night on threeor more nights a week.

Under the new regu-lations, the late-nightlicense process fordowntown businessesis much quicker, thefee is greatly reducedand establishments donot need to have akitchen.

Mayor Bober's livemusic initiative kickedoff Feb. 18 with thedebut of ArtsParkLive!, a year-roundfree concert series fea-turing a variety of high-quality acts everyFriday and Saturdaynight at the state-of-the-art outdoor am-phitheater that openedat the ArtsPark atYoung Circle last June.

Numerous downtownvenues currently offerongoing live music, in-

cluding The Big EasyBar and Grille, Choco-lada Bakery & Café,La Barraca Bar,Megabite ChilloutLounge, Native FloridaTap Room & MusicHall, Octopus Gardenand Spice Resto-Lounge.

"It's refreshing to finda mayor and city gov-ernment that supportthe arts in the market-place," said KilmoDoome, owner of Na-tive Florida Tap Room& Music Hall, 2006Hollywood Boulevard,and an accomplishedbass player whotoured with Blood,Sweat & Tears andother bands.

Kilmo previouslyowned live music fix-ture Alligator Alley inFort Lauderdale, whichclosed in 2009, and hesearched for the rightlocation for two yearsprior to opening his

new club in February.He said the new LiveMusic District providesthe opportunity for himto promote creativeoriginal music in a vari-ety of genres by bothlocal and nationalartists performing in anintimate concert clubsetting.

City officials anddowntown businessowners say the cre-ation of a live musicdestination has eco-nomic as well as cul-tural benefits.

Venues that providequality live music"make the trip toDowntown Hollywoodwell worth the effort formusic lovers," saidChris Eberle, presidentof the Downtown Hol-lywood Business Asso-ciation (DHBA) andco-owner of The BigEasy Bar and Grillewith Jimmy Sklaveni-tis.

"With live musicheard all through thestreets of DowntownHollywood almostevery night of theweek, we are well onour way to becomingSouth Florida's livemusic capital," saidMegabite ChilloutLounge owner AdamMorgan.

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––and vote.

As a longtime Hollywood resident and some-one who spends most of my waking hours inHallandale Beach and throughout the region,what happens this year is very important to meand the newspaper that continues to serve pourcommunities. Change, while it's sometimes agood thing, is not always the answer.

In Hollywood, there will be some new faces forthe next few years. Longtime commissionersFran Russo (District 5) and Beam Furr (District2) will step down, choosing not to run. Too badbecause I think both have served the district inwhich they were elected very well for an ex-tended period of time.

The other commissioners in the city will alsobe challenged, as many residents are concernedwith the economy and the future of Hollywoodfrom an economic standpoint. Those public fig-ures that once were so popular have watchedtheir star fade with the many negative headlinesHollywood has made, and an economy that hasbeen unstable - to say the least.

Last week, an area resident got my hear at theHallandale Beach post office, asking me abouthe upcoming election. They wanted to knowwhat to look for in a candidate. While I am neverone to tell anyone my views when it comes to re-ligion or politics - because it is simply a no-winconversation - I am always quick to give a fewthoughts on what to look for.

My best advice would be to check out the can-didate and see what their views are, how muchthey are willing to roll up their sleeves and makea difference in the community. Talk and cam-paign promises are grand, but results are very,very important. If you back a candidate that sim-ply makes no impact or gets nothing done, youhave to ask yourself why waste the vote. Even ifthat candidate is deemed to be popular, a quickcheck of the track record can be that dose of re-ality - good or bad - that needs to be broughtout.

I also believe the best thing to attend during anelection cycle is a debate. That way, even if youthought a candidate had all the answers and so-lutions, you can hear for yourself what their opin-ions are, which could make a huge difference.

Things promise to be very interesting in Hal-landale Beach as Mayor Joy Cooper and Com

missioner Keith London are running for mayor,which will begin to heat up over the next fewmonths. This will be perhaps the most watchedof any local election because what's at stake forthe leadership of the city, which recently hired anew city manager.

At-large seats held by Commissioners DorothyRoss and Anthony Sanders are also up.

In Dania Beach, Commissioner Anne Castrowill not run because of term limits. It has alwaysbeen that the commissioner elected with themost votes will become the mayor. Mayor Patri-cia Flury will become a commissioner.

It's a matter of time before the hard push is on.We will see campaign signage all over the re-gion, listen to promises being made and hear at-tacks on others, swaying your vote. This isindeed a huge year locally, regionally and na-tionally. One that will certainly change plenty forall of us.

As the election gets closer, we will have a lookat the candidates in the cities in which we cover.It will give you a chance to read what their viewsare.Have something to add to this or anything

else we write, drop us a line [email protected].

Global Jewelry Buying House

Global Jewelry Buying House. They have been doing business in New York for 30 years and are now beginning their rapid expansion - right here in Aventura.

AVENTURA - You saw an ad for Global Jewelry Buying House and wanted to learn more before you trusted your jewelry to them. You called and they told you to come to their Buying House at 18677 West Dixie Highway in Aventura, FL. Not knowing what to expect, you brought only a couple of pieces of unwanted jewelry and a silver serv-ice, no longer in use.

Upon arrival, you were buzzed into the store by their private secu-rity officer and were met in the lobby by the Director of Buying, Danny. He took you down a warm and inviting hallway to one of sev-eral boutique-like rooms. You were asked if you would like coffee or water and was served your bottled water in a crystal stemmed glass.

By Suzanne Wallace - Sun Times Danny took out a purchase form, wrote your name and date on the form and after opening up his jew-elers light, asked to see what you had brought. He examined your two pieces of jewelry and wrote a value on the form next to a description and then looked at your silver and assessed its value.

At that point, you had a decision to make...sell it now or take your copy of the purchase form to show your wife. You decided the price was certainly fair and sold your jew-elry for cash. You took your silver service back home to make sure your wife agreed with the sale and showed her the purchase form with the price that was offered. Your wife agreed it was a good price so tomorrow you will take it back, along with the purchase order, and

be given the price listed. What’s more, you have decided to take some more jewelry that has been lying in a jewelry box for years and cash it in too.

That is a typical experience at the Global Jewelry Buying House. They have been doing business in New York for 30 years and are now beginning their rapid expansion.

More Planned For South Florida

Three new Buying Houses are in the works in the Aventura area and more planned in the South Florida area. One of the things that make this business unique, other than their boutique look, is that they don’t sell jewelry at their locations; they only buy from the public. Because they are a well-known International Jewelry Buying House,

they have customers world-wide who buy from them. They provide a liquid global market for previously owned jewelry and for that reason; they are able to offer the highest prices to you. They are the leading global buyer of fine jewelry, dia-monds and watches from the pub-lic. A GIA Certified Gemologist is on site to examine your diamonds.

Converting Gold And Diamonds Into Cash

It’s a new concept-the modern way to sell your fine jewelry. You can convert your collection of estate jewelry or diamonds for cold hard cash. Good to know in these economic times. Although it was pointed out that most of their cus-tomers aren’t selling because they need the money...they are selling because their lifestyle has changed and they no longer need or want the silver or jewelry.

Coins, Gold And Much MoreThey specialize in American Eagle

coins. They buy scrap gold, 10k, 14k, 18k, and unlike some, they are the top buyers of gold filled. They buy silver, platinum, rings, brace-lets, necklaces, cufflinks, money clips, earrings, chains, brooches, watches, key chains, dental gold, class rings, pins, estate jewelry, col-lectibles and much more. Global

Jewelry Buying House is the larg-est gold buyer in South Florida.

Best of all, you are treated in a professional manner and if you are worried about your security, you will be escorted to your car by their security guard. It’s a no worry, no hassle, and great way to sell your jewelry, watches or collectibles.

Global Jewelry Buying House is located at 18677 West Dixie Highway Aventura, FL 33180 Telephone: 305-705-9600. Hours: Mon – Fri 10 A.M. to 5:30 P.M.

Hearing loss can bedevious. It may not bereadily apparent to theperson who suffersfrom it, because theprocess is often an in-sidious one. “It cantake eight to 10 yearsbefore someone withgradual hearing lossbecomes aware of it,”says Rick Cox, ownerof Audibel HearingCenters in HallandaleBeach. “Someone elsewho is close to theperson often notices itfirst.”

Subtle signs ofhearing loss includeneeding to turn up thevolume of the TV orradio farther than be-fore, having to ask oth-ers to repeat what theysaid, or needing to becloser to someonewho is speaking toyou.If you do suspect youmight be experiencinghearing loss, the firstthing to do is to haveyour condition evalu-ated by a professional.It may be somethingthat can be treatedmedically. “Sometimesit’s as simple as waxbuildup,” Cox says. “Orit may be an infectionof some kind. Then wesend the person to anear, nose and throatdoctor.”

NEW TECHNOLOGY ISAVAILABLE

If, however, youhave a loss that re-quires sound amplifi-cation, there is goodnews. New technologyhas resulted in devicesthat are far superior tothose of yesteryear.Gone are the large,unsightly hearing aidsof the past. “It used tobe that appearancewas a big reason peo-ple refused to get ahearing aid,” Cox says.But now, many of themfit into the ear canal sono one else knows youare wearing one.”Even more important,many of today’s digitalhearing aids are de-signed to adjust auto-matically to yourenvironment. A mod-ern hearing aid may beable, for example, toperform differently inan intimate, one-to-one conversation thanit does when you arein a group or in othersituations where thereis significant back-ground noise.

CHOOSING THE

RIGHT DEVICE FORYOU

Hearing aids vary intheir performance andcost, and to help thepatient choose the onethat is right for him orher, Cox first asksabout lifestyle andhabits. “Someone whomostly stays at homemay want a differentdevice than someonewho has a very activelifestyle,” he notes.Fitting the hearing aidcorrectly and thenmaking sure it is serv-ing the patient in thebest possible way re-quires time and follow-up. “It’s not just amatter of putting in thehearing aid and send-ing the person out thedoor,” Cox says.“Much of what we do iscounseling, and help-ing the patient getused to the device.”

RETRAINING THEBRAIN

When a person be-gins to lose his or herhearing, the brainstarts to forget whatparticular sounds arelike, Cox explains.“Then when you get ahearing aid, you arerewiring the brain so itrelearns thosesounds,” he says. “Butbecause you’re nolonger used to thesounds, adjusting tothem again may be avery gradual process.”After an initial fitting,an average patient islikely to have a returnvisit scheduled in oneweek to see how thedevice is performingand how he or she isadjusting. The next fol-low-up might be twoweeks beyond that.“But someone else

might need to comeback the next day afterthe first fitting,” Coxsays. “We do whateverthe person requires tomake the processeasy and worry-free.”Success with a hear-ing aid can, in fact, de-pend on the rapport apatient establisheswith the hearing pro-fessional. “It’s similarto when you go to yourdoctor for treatment,”Cox says. “If he or shedoesn’t treat you rightor doesn’t make youfeel valued, you’re notlikely to want to goback again.”

EARLY INTERVENTION ISIMPORTANT

It is important to treathearing loss as earlyas possible. “Peoplesometimes say, ‘well,I’m not deaf yet, so I

don’t need to do any-thing,’” Cox says. “Butwhen you begin to loseyour hearing, it can se-riously reduce yourability to communicatewith people aroundyou. You may still hearsome of what’s beingsaid, but you’re miss-ing bits and pieces.The brain is quick totry to sort things out,but it starts to guess atthings, and as thathappens more andmore, it can make mis-takes.”The individual may be-come withdrawn oreven reclusive. “It’s notunusual for someonewith hearing loss tobecome depressedand anxious, and tohave feelings of isola-tion,” Cox says.“Sometimes, he or shemay even developsymptoms similar tothose of Alzheimer’sand may be misdiag-nosed.”

INDIVIDUALIZED

CARE AT AUDIBELWhen you visit Audi-

bel Hearing Centers,you will receive individ-ualized, customizedcare that will help youchoose the right hear-ing device for you.“For us, it’s all aboutthe patient,” Cox says.“Our satisfactioncomes from helpingsomeone have betterquality of life and enjoythemselves more.”Cox has been in thebusiness for 38 years.To get an idea of howthings have changed,consider how digitizedtechnology has im-proved devices likeTVs and cameras.Technology has madesimilar advances pos-sible in hearing de-vices. “When I started,I couldn’t have imag-ined that what we cando now would ever bepossible,” he says. “Itmakes my work fun,because we can reallychange someone’slife.”

(ARA) - Healthyeating is defined inmany different ways,but the United StatesDepartment of Agricul-ture replaced the for-mer Food Pyramidwith MyPlate - creat-ing an easy visual foreveryone to enjoyhealthy and balancedmeals.

The MyPlate graphicshows a place setting.The dinner plate is di-vided in half. One halfof the plate is com-posed of fruits andvegetables, and theother half grains andproteins. To see ex-actly how much thatamounts to for eachmember of your fam-ily, visit www.fruitsand-veggiesmatter.gov.The sad reality is mostAmericans do not eatthis many fruits andveggies in a day. Ifyou're interested inchanging your family'seating habits, how canyou get them to fill uphalf of their plates withfruits and vegetables?

This summer, con-sider adapting yourfamily's eating habitsto mimic the MyPlategraphic. Although

most on-the-go fami-lies don't eat thatmany fruits and veg-etables, it's easy todo, especially if youplant a garden andbuy from local farmersmarkets. When yougrow your own fruitsand vegetables it canhelp save time andmoney, but the bene-fits go much deeper.Growing fresh pro-duce is a rewardingexperience that pro-vides your family withquick and healthy al-ternatives to snackfoods. Even a finickychild will most likelyeat a carrot that theygrew themselves orsnack on some salsafrom their very owngarden.

Growing enoughfruits and vegetablesto fill half your familymember's plate is eas-ier than it sounds-here are some tips toaccomplish this taskthis summer: * Plan a garden.Map out a space inyour backyard that willmake a nice gardenplot. Keep it in asunny spot, away fromtrees and buildings.

Consider installing afence around the spot,especially if yourbackyard is fre-quented by bunnies ordeer. If you don't havea backyard, check outyour city's communitygarden plots to borrowor rent. Or considercreating a containergarden on your deck,balcony or patio. It iseasy to grow veggiesin any space. * Make a list. Writedown the vegetablesand fruits you want togrow, keeping in mindwhat plants thrive inyour zone, as well asthe spacing you haveavailable. If you don'thave space forenough fruits and veg-etables to last you theentire summer, con-sider participating in aco-op or making a visitto your local farmersmarket once a week toadd in a variety of fruitand vegetable options. * Start planting.Give your plants allthe nutrients theyneed to grow well, soyou can experience abountiful harvest. Ifplanting in containers,the Miracle-Gro Mois-

ture Control PottingMix works perfectly forsmaller pots or morearid environments, theMiracle-Gro OrganicChoice Potting Mixprovides an organicpotting soil option andthe Miracle-Gro Ex-pand N Gro Concen-trated Potting Mix islightweight and ex-pands with water,making it easier tomove larger contain-ers while planting. * Weeding, pruningand watering. Onceplanted, fruits andvegetables will likelyneed a little growingassistance in the formof pulling weeds, prun-ing back overgrown

plants and of course,watering. For best re-sults, water deeplyeach morning beforethe heat of the dayhas taken its toll. Con-tainer gardens tend toneed to be wateredmore frequently be-cause growing plantscan quickly soak upwater added to thecontainer. With goodmaintenance, yourplants should provideyou with a large anddelicious harvest. * Serve up thosefruit and veggiedishes. When you'reready to harvest, startplanning menus thatwill make good use ofyour garden's growth.

Visit www.groy-ourown.com to findmany deliciousrecipes that will usedifferent fruits andveggies from your gar-den. And don't forgetabout the USDA's My-Plate proportion rec-ommendation. Whenserving, try and keephalf of the plate full ofwhat you harvestedout of your own back-yard to maintainhealthy eating habits.If you find yourselfwith more fresh pro-duce than your familycan eat, consider do-nating to a local foodpantry or sharing yourharvest with friendsand neighbors.

MOUNT SINAI MEDICAL CENTER

Plays key role in FDA approval of newAlzheimer's Disease diagnostic agentMIAMI BEACH - The Wien Center for Alzheimer’s Disease and

Memory Disordersat Mount Sinai Med-ical Center in MiamiBeach, Florida, wasone of a select fewsites throughout thecountry chosen toparticipate in a clini-cal trial that resultedin the FDA approvalof Amyvid. It is thefirst and only diag-nostic agent ap-proved for PETimaging of a livingbrain in adults underevaluation for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other causes of cogni-tive decline.

Currently, only a brain autopsy at the time of death can provideconfirmation that an individual suffered from Alzheimer's disease.However, Amyvid enables doctors to make a more definitive diagno-sis in living patients.Amyvid, which is given through an injection, binds to amyloidplaques – a hallmark characteristic of Alzheimer’s – allowing theplaques to be detected using PET scan images of the brain. Amyloidplaques are abnormal clumps of brain cells mixed with beta-amyloidprotein. A negative Amyvid scan allows physicians to conclude thatno amyloid plaques are present and, thus, rule out a diagnosis ofAlzheimer’s.

“This tool is extremely helpful to physicians in ruling out AD as na-tionally one in five patients who are initially diagnosed withAlzheimer’s ultimately show no signs of the disease in a brain au-topsy,” stated Dr. Ranjan Duara, medical director of The Wien Cen-ter at Mount Sinai. Dr. Duara, the principal site investigator for theclinical trial at Mount Sinai, served as the national advisor for the de-sign and interpretation of the overall study. The Wien Center is alsothe home of the State of Florida Brain Bank. As such, Dr. Duara’steam at Mount Sinai also analyzed and processed all the brains inSouth Florida that were part of the clinical trial.A positive scan indicates moderate to frequent plaques are present,but does not establish a diagnosis of AD; however, it does helpphysicians assess their patients by serving as an adjunct to other di-agnostic evaluations.

“As many as 30 percent of cognitively normal elderly people overthe age of 70 may have a positive scan. This means they may be atan increased risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease,” said Duara.“That is why the development of Amyvid is a major advance in thebattle against Alzheimer’s. It allows us to potentially intervene beforesymptoms of the disease surface.”

Beginning June of 2012, a limited number of radiopharmacies willbe distributing Amyvid with increased distribution toward the end ofthe year. Mount Sinai will potentially be one of the South Floridasites that will have Amyvid available as a diagnostic agent.

Harmful Toothpaste Ingredients and Your Teeth(NewsUSA) - Shoppers study ingredient labels to make sure what they

eat and drink is good for them. But there is one ingredient label that isbeing overlooked -- the toothpaste ingredient label."You will brush your teeth 1,000 times per year or more, and each time youdo, you will ingest some toothpaste. If you think that is not a problem, thinkagain," says Dentist and Oral Health Expert Dr. Harold Katz. "Some of theingredients in many commercial toothpastes are undeniably bad for you."

Here is a short list of the basic harmful ingredients Dr. Katz says con-sumers should know:* FD&C blue dye No. 2. This dye is in many toothpastes, but the Center forScience in the Public Interest warns against it as it might be related tolearning and behavioral issues, severe allergic reactions and other healthproblems.* Sodium lauryl sulfate. The American College of Toxicology says it cancause skin corrosion, irritation and canker sores. In lab rats, the ingredientled to depression, diarrhea and death.* Triclosan. The anti-microbial ingredient is listed as a pesticide and isused in OTC toothpaste and hand soap. But the Environmental ProtectionAgency demanded more research be conducted because of triclosan'snegative effects on thyroid and estrogen levels.* Saccharin and aspartame. Both are artificial sweeteners, and both madethe Center for Science in the Public Interest's list of additives to avoid.

What toothpastes should you use?Katz recommends that consumers looking to avoid problem ingredients

buy an "ethical" toothpaste brand like TheraBreath(www.therabreath.com), Weleda's Salt, or Tom's of Maine. TheraBreath,for example, is certified Vegan, Kosher, Sulfate-Free, Alcohol-Free andGluten-Free.

The same rules nutritionists recommend you use for food should applyto oral care products as well, advises Katz. "Look for a toothpaste with nat-ural ingredients like Aloe Juice and Tea Tree Oil. Xylitol is an excellent cav-ity-fighting sweetener used by both Spry and TheraBreath in their effectivetoothpastes. And avoid toothpastes with added colors -- they serve no pur-pose and can actually decrease the whiteness of your teeth over time."

(ARA) - Fibromyal-gia is a condition thataffects up to 12 mil-lion Americans.What's worse is that70 percent of peoplewith fibromyalgia areundiagnosed.

Fibromyalgia ischaracterized bywidespread pain andtenderness, de-creased physicalfunction, fatigue anddifficulty sleeping. It ismost common amongwomen ages 20 to50, but it can also af-fect men.

According to a na-tional survey, mostpeople (70 percent)suffering from fi-bromyalgia delay pur-suing medical helpbecause they thinktheir symptoms willgo away. People ex-periencing fibromyal-gia symptoms mostcommonly wait up tothree years beforeseeking help from ahealthcare profes-sional, yet 55 percentof those surveyedsaid that once theydid see a healthcareprofessional, it turnedout to be a good deci-sion. "It took me nearly

six years to get my fi-bromyalgia diag-nosed," says PenneyCowan, founder andexecutive director ofthe American ChronicPain Association(ACPA), a co-sponsorof the surveys. "Ifthere is one thing Ican tell a person withfibromyalgia, it wouldbe to be proactive. Ifyou experience fi-bromyalgia symp-toms, don't wait.Seek help from ahealthcare profes-sional as soon as youcan." The survey findings

show that when peo-ple with fibromyalgiawere experiencingsymptoms, they weredissatisfied with theirability to carry outtheir daily routine,perform duties atwork and take care ofothers and their over-all health. Yet, whilepeople with fibromyal-gia have difficulty per-forming routine tasks,such as driving, sit-ting for long periodsand doing householdchores, many in thegeneral public are un-aware that theseeveryday activitiescan be a struggle forthem. "As a doctor who

has been treating fi-bromyalgia for sev-eral years, I'mencouraged by sur-veys like these thatincrease the conver-sation about the con-dition," says Dr. BethHodges, a physicianspecializing in fi-bromyalgia, who is lo-cated in Asheboro,N.C. "I urge peoplewho think they mayhave fibromyalgia toseek help from theirhealthcare providerwithout delay. Thesooner they are diag-nosed, the soonerthey can begin an ef-fective managementplan." There are FDA-ap-

proved medicationsthat can help managethe symptoms of fi-bromyalgia, as wellas lifestyle changesthat may be appropri-ate. Although no spe-cific diet is shown torelieve symptoms, ahealthy and balanceddiet can increase en-ergy levels and alert-ness, and helpprevent other healthproblems. Peoplewith fibromyalgia mayalso benefit frommoderate exercise,such as low-impactaerobics or daily

stretching. If you think you may

be experiencingsymptoms of fi-bromyalgia, schedulea visit soon to speakwith your doctorabout your symp-toms. Preparing for the

doctor: A checklist forpeople in pain by theACPA * Before going to seea doctor or otherhealthcare profes-sional, be preparedwith a list of ques-tions. Keep track ofyour symptoms andhow you respond tothings you do to re-lieve your symptoms(eg, taking aspirin forpain or changing yourdiet) * List every medica-tion you take. This in-cludes prescriptionand nonprescriptionmedications and di-etary supplements,such as vitamins. Foreach one, note theimpact on your symp-toms. Did symptomsimprove, get worse orstay the same? Ifyou're not sure, thenstate that. * Keep notes on yourlevel of functioning.Include changes inappetite, sleep, en-

durance and concen-tration. And writedown any questionsyou may have. * If possible, takesomeone with you tothe doctor. Ask him orher to listen carefullyto what the doctorsays and to ask any-thing you forget toask.

Psychic Defense Coping MechanismsDr. Ron.., What does psychic defenses mean? Are they good or bad to have... G.H.

Psychic defenses, as first introduced by Sigmund Freud, are ways we think about ourselves, that block full self-awareness to minimizepainful perceptions. Many times therapists will attempt to loosen up people with rigid defense mechanisms, although sometimes it is vitalto build up defenses, especially healthy ones. Below are 5 of the 15 or so common defenses people use to justify their thoughts and ac-tions:1. Denial is considered a primitive, inarticulate form of psychic defense. It is simply denying that a painful stressor even exists. For ex-ample a husband that has had over a dozen domestic violence calls brought forth by his wife stating “We have no problems in our mar-riage”2. Projection is the misattribution of unwanted thoughts and motives of oneself onto another. For example if you would have unwantedsexual thoughts about ones best friends' wife, and turning that around by saying she has those sexual thoughts about you.... Basedupon many years in practice, I have seen projection highly used by people who have paranoid personality styles.3. Rationalization is basically the attempt to offer explanation and excuses for behaving badly.. It is an articulate defense, again oftenused by paranoid types.. An example!?... Yes Doc..., I cheat on my wife, so I don't have to bother her for sex when she is tired... It'sgood for her. good for me, and keeps our marriage together4. Sublimation is a healthy defense mechanism. It is the channeling of undesired, inappropriate thoughts, and emotions into more ac-ceptable ones. ie.., Larry loved to brawl, but always got him arrested, so he decided to become a pro boxer and now makes a good in-come, knocking people out in a law abiding manner5. Suppression is mostly a healthy defense that people use to avoid being wracked by fatalistic, or pessimistic thought processes.( obsessive-compulsive disor-der is particularly prone to this kind of thinking) We all know we will all die one day, but it serves few any good to be obsessed with this thinking. Suppression isnot denial, but rather a way to cope with things one cannot change or control

Dr. Ron is a licensed psychologist with a practice in Hallandale Beach He can be reached at 954 455-7745.... or [email protected]

National findings suggest better understanding and support mayempower people to seek help early for fibromyalgia symptoms

People experiencing fibromyalgia symptoms most commonly wait up to threeyears before seeking help from a health-care professional, yet 55 percent of thosesurveyed said that once they did see a

healthcare professional, it turned out to bea good decision.
